The young Neo Queen had told her daughter that nothing was wrong. She said that Mercury was nowhere near the crystal palace that day; rather she had left late the night before to do missionary work in the kingdom. When prompted for Jupiter’s whereabouts, the pink haired princess was told that she had left to ( Read more... )

“Hime!” Jadeite exclaimed stepping in front of Sailor Moon. He extended his arm out in front of her while unsheathing his sword with his other hand. A deep red glow slowly crept along the surface of the blade, illuminating it with a fiery sheen.

Rei and Jadeite walked down the white marble hallway briskly - or rather Jadeite pursued Rei down the hall as she kept her quick pace ahead of him.
