"Get that other box over there."
"What there's another box?"
"Yes and Its a large one."
"Ok I'll get it." The man walked over and picked up the box. "Its not as heavy as I thought it would be."
"Careful its marked fragile."
"Hmm its probably got glass in it, its too light to be machinery."
"Oh well put in the plane, you never know what these scientist types will take with them."

Kioku and the girls are at the Hikari dojo. Kioku and Makoto both dressed in gi, bow to each other and begin to fight. There kicks punches, counter punches, and blocks become so fast that the other girls soon lose track of it and, they begin to talk among themselves.

"Ami should be on her way by now." Rei started.
"I still can't believe she went in a box." Mina answered back.
"I still don't know why you insisted she take a purse."
"That was to hide the Crystal in, It has a false bottom and the top is filled with makeup."
"But Ami doesn't wear makeup."
"I know but an empty purse looks funny."
"Ami had a bag you know."
"Yea but a person may offer to take your bag but ignore a purse."
"I give up on you, sometimes you make less sense than Usagi." After that both girls just sat there, almost in tears, not knowing what to say after the mention of the now almost dead friend.

Kioku and Makoto finished and Makoto went over to the other girls. Kioku than picked up his katana sword which was on a stand in the corner. The sword had a curved blade of fine tempered steal. The guard was made of pure gold, and the hilt was carved ivory capped with the head of a dragon. This sword had been his Fathers, before that his Grandfathers, and his fathers before him, and so on for nearly twenty generations. The doors swung open, and Mamoru walked in also carrying a katana sword. His also had a curved well tempered steal blade, and gold guard, but his hilt was made of pure gold, with intricate designs carved into it. The two walked forward bowed, to each other, than to the girls, than they went at it.

Rei and Mina were shocked, but Makoto quickly explained that Mamoru felt that he could best help Usagi by being ready for anything. The two continued fighting for what seamed like hours, moving so fast that it was difficult to see them. Than all of a sudden Kioku fell backwards with a large bump on his forehead.


-flashback-


In Jupiter's room at the moon palace Jupiter sits putting away large numbers of gifts, she smiles as she flips through some recipe books the Princess Serenity had brought back with her after her visit to Earth with her mother, that was almost four months ago and still her friend the princess had thought of her birthday. Her thoughts are interrupted by a knocking at her door, Kintaro walks in wishes her a happy birthday and gives her a small present. She smiles back at him and opens the gift. It is the pair of rose ear-rings that she always wears. She loves them and immediately puts them on. She than thanks him again and gives him a kiss.

Time moves forward to Princess Serenity's Sixteenth birthday. There are hundreds of people there Endymion is there wearing a mask.

"So you're here." Kintaro laughs as he sneaks up behind Endymion.
"Where are those four friends of yours, I'm surprised that they would miss this."
"I do not know, They have been spending much time with the sage Beryl, and all five of them have been acting strange lately."
"The queen demands to see you in her quarters." Kintaro turns to face the man.
"In her quarters?"
"That is what she said." Kintaro was puzzled now because except for the Princesses only the two cat advisors were allowed into the Queen's chambers. He slowly opened the door and walked in.

"You wished to see me your majesty?"
"Please call me Serenity" now this really bothered him. "But I must be brief we will be attacked, You have little time to ready your armies." now how the queen knew this Kintaro had no idea but he knew that she was always right.

"As you wish." Kintaro turned to leave when he saw a portrait with "Presented to the Moon King on there Majesties first weeding anniversary" written under it, what was surprising was the picture itself. The man looked like Kintaro, but older with golden hair, and a mustache. Kintaro stared at the picture for a minute and whispered "Father?" With many questions unanswered Kintaro leaves to prepare himself and his armies for what was to be the beginning of the end for the Moon Kingdom.

"Move back He's waking up." Kioku slowly opened his eyes and moaned
"Oh my poor sister."
"Huh sister" everyone stated at once.
"Oh nothing" Kioku answered.
"Its not nothing." Mamoru answered back.
"Well" Kioku answered "I'll tell you when its important."

The plane landed on Antarctica, and the scientists slowly unloaded there plane. Ami stuck the little dentist's mirror she carries around out a small hole in the box. Seeing that there was nobody around she kicked open the box grabbed her bag and ran as far as she could.

"Well I'm sure they can't see me now." Ami thought so she transformed. There is a bright light and Undine appeared

"Follow me." was all she said and Ami followed her.
"This is the great Ice Cave." One of the many gates to the holy land used to be here before the goddess sealed them."
"Well" Ami said "Lets go" Undine flashed once and vanished. "Ok lets go" Undine's voice came from inside Mercury's head. The tunnels were long twisting and sometimes there were more than one way to go but Undine told her which way to go.

"What have I gotten myself into?" Ami thought to herself. "I'm getting deeper and deeper into these ice caves, on my way to fight a god. My powers will probably be useless against a water demon anyways." and soon she was standing Fiegmund. The brute was 20 feet long, and covered with dull blue scales. It had glowing red eyes and 3 long foot claws. With no other option Mercury attacked, she used attack after attack, Shine Aqua Illusion, Mercury Aqua Rhapsody, she even reverted back to her Shabon Spray. But nothing worked. Than she heard a small voice inside her head, without knowing how she put her hand together, using the same forces that she used in her attacks she slowly created a small spike made from water that quickly froze. Holding it like a dagger she charged the monster and stabbed out one of its eyes. It screamed in pain and rushed straight at her. Mercury barely jumped out of the way. The monster raised its arms and several large blocks of ice formed above its head which it threw at Mercury, They all missed but one that smashed across her leg. She heard something pop and pain shot up and down her leg. She lay there bleeding as the monster slowly moved in for the kill. Mercury struggled to get to her feet. She felt around and found a pole leaning against the wall. She grabbed it and use it to drag herself to her feet. Than she looked at it. It was a spear that appeared to be made of light blue crystal. Mercury raised the spear and spun it several times around her head, While she spun it water shot out in the direction of the Frost demon, knocking it back several steps, Than almost before it left her hand the spear was lodged in the beast's throat. It stumbled backwards water gushing from the wound, than it slowly melted to the ground. All mercury could do was breath a sigh of relief as she collapsed amazed by what she had just done.

The water crystal lay were the Frost Demon once stood, it was several shades of blue which swirled over each other as if the crystal itself was made of water. Ami slowly picked it up, she could feel the energy it held. She want back to her bag, got the purse and put the crystal under the false bottom. She wondered what to do about the spear but the pole shrank until it was only six inches long. So she put it in the purse with the crystal. Mercury got ready and than Transformed back into Ami, But nothing happened. She couldn't un-transform. Ami wondered what to do, she got some clothes out of her bag, took off her senshi outfit and changed clothes the old fashioned way. Than she took off the Tiara and put it in her bag along with her other clothes.

"Well I guess this will do." She than went back to the plane.

***********

Ami walked up to the scientists,

"Hi I'm sorry my name is Mizuno Ami, I got on the wrong plane, but I need to get home, I don't mind waiting though." The scientists just stared at her.
"Well you aren't going to leave me I hope." they still said nothing, Ami was beginning to get worried now.
"No we'll take you, You just startled us."
"And the tattoo was a surprise also, Not that I haven't seen a tattoo before but, I've never seen one glow." Ami was shocked to hear him say that. She dug through the purse Mina had given her, She was surprise how handy it was, until she found a mirror. She looked at herself and on her forehead glowed the sign of Mercury.
