She thought - a smile placed on her lips. 'That's > my imouto...' She smiled at that, as she caught Kunzite's glance. > Endymion's voice then filled their ears. "Minna-san, we need the > crystal... Serena said we needed the crystal to defeat this evil..." > > "But how?" > > He seemed to shrug, repeating the one thing that his love had last told > him, "Look into your heart..." > > Sailor Neptune's eyes lit up, as she restated the passage that she had > read from the library on the moon, "A fallen princess shall arise again, as > her powers are welled by the love of her friends." > > "So we need to combine all of our powers together to form the crystal and > defeat this negasleeze!" Sailor Jupiter said enthusiastically. "And then > we can go home!" > > Nephrite rolled his eyes, "You sure are something, Mako-chan." > > She grinned. > > "Okay, okay, stop flirting and do this... Beryl is getting ready to > attack..." the fiery priestess stated, as they nodded. > > The placed the precious stone in the middle of a circle that they had > made.

It took her, claiming her as dust. > > The drain was too much for them, as they fell in defeat. > > Metallia walked up to the crystal. It was now hers... > > She let out a smile. > > Serenity's voice called out to her, 'Don't touch it...' > > Metallia blocked out the sound of her voice. > > She picked up the crystal as it took her, the white light feeding on her, > as she let out a scream.
