She couldn’t say she had been expecting the visit, but she wasn’t surprised in the slightest. Ami wondered briefly how Usagi had managed to deliver a message to who Ami presumed was her great-granddaughter. But she had. And of course she had the successor she was asked to provide, as though she could miss a girl with a sailor crystal in her heart.
Ami signed her guards. “Get my guest food.” She turned back to the girl. “Gift,” she said to be sure she’d understand. “I must get.”
Rose was painting, as usual. Mizuko was too. They were making a huge blue bird today, which looked to Ami like a Chinese imperial phoenix. “Girls.”

“Mizuko.”
Mizuko looked up at her name, blinking owlishly.
“It’s not that I’m displeased with you, but it’s time for you to go away for a while.”
“Why?” Rose wailed.
“I’ve told you you were Sailor Mercury and Sailor Neptune. Now it’s time for you to find out what that means.” Ami discovered she was crying to see them go.
