The next day, Naru was in deep thought over that had happened 
the day before.

"They hurt Usagi-Chan just to awaken the Soldier of Nature! 
Those Dark Youmas are very evil and horrible! I cannot 
forgive them for hurting my best friend!" 

Naru thought to herself with tears coming down.

"Am I the last Soldier of the Solar System that still sleeps? 
And are they trying to fully awaken me?" 

Naru questioned herself.

Naru started to realize by now that soon she would not be just 
an ordinary girl. It all started with the pains and blackouts 
and ended up with people getting hurt. Mainly, the person she 
cared most, Usagi. She was able to heal her by the power of 
Sailor Earth. Was Sailor Earth able to heal those that got 
hurt for her names' sake? If so, Naru was in deep remorse 
over it. She could not get it out of her mind that a creep 
like Mudious would try to get to Sailor Earth to revive and 
awaken again. Each time, Sailor Earth only awakened long 
enough to destroy the evil and return to her slumber once 
more. The Dark Youmas were not happy. They wanted Sailor 
Earth awakened for their own evil purpose, but the Sun 
Soldiers and the Sailor Senshi did not know why. Neither 
did Naru for that matter. Naru thought it might be best 
that she remained the way she was, but the pains and 
blackouts would always arise again when the Earth or 
people were in jeopardy. She could not stand for it. 
An innocent person was not supposed to get hurt for 
any reason. Soldiers or no Soldiers were not to be 
hurt just to awaken the Soldier of Nature. It laws 
of nature forbid innocent people to be hurt just to 
awaken the Soldier of Nature. When that happens, the 
Soldier of Nature awakes in a violent grumpy rage using 
the full extent of the full forces of nature at her disposal. 
So far, that had not happened, yet. However, Mudious was very 
persistent and would get what he wanted most, Sailor Earth. 
However, she still slept and actually not awakened where 
she could punish those for their evil ways. Technically, 
she was still asleep; Sailor Earth used Naru as a go 
between to fight the monsters for they're selfish and evil 
ways. Indeed Naru is this Soldier of Nature, Sailor Earth, 
but had not awakened as her at this time. If that happened 
her life as she knew it would be gone. Naru was a simple girl. 
She was smart, attractive, and very pretty. They always attacked 
in the past because the monsters knew she was a 'sleeping Soldier' 
and wanted her out of the way just in case she did return. Now 
there was no turning back now, somehow she knew that it will not 
be long before a bad event would happen and someone would be hurt 
just for their selfish pleasures. Naru decided she needed some 
fresh air. Naru went for a walk.

 Thinking back to the day before had Naru thinking about what 
happened just for her to awaken as Sailor Earth, the Soldier 
of Nature? Naru sat on a park bench. Naru felt bad, other would 
be hurt just for her sake. Tears flowed down from Naru's eyes. 
There were many reasons why Naru was crying. For one, she cried 
because innocent people happened to be hurt just so she can 
awaken as Sailor Earth. Second, she knew Mudious abused nature 
just for his evil ways. Three, she wanted to remain as normal 
as possible.

"It is useless. I will awaken soon and my fury shall be 
unleashed!" 

Naru spoke to herself. Behind her were the four Outer Soldiers, 
Hotaru, Haruka, Michiru, and Setsuna.

"Naru, you seemed distressed." 

Hotaru commented.

"Distressed, none of you has any idea what would happen if 
someone was hurt even worse than yesterday or even killed 
for that matter the sleeping Soldier would awaken in a 
grumpy rage. I do not want that to happen Sailor Saturn." 

Naru answered her. They were surprised when she called Hotaru 
by her senshi name.

"How did..." 

Hotaru started to ask. Only to be cut off by Naru.

"How did I know?" 

Naru started with a question, 

"because I am starting to awaken, but I figured it out and 
not Sailor Earth. Once I figured who Solar Sailor Moon was 
I was able to find out that each of her friends was a Soldier 
of the Solar System. In addition, I can see auras around each 
of you! Normal people down have auras. I am starting to see who 
has auras and who does not. Personally, I do not want to awaken." 

Naru answered them.

"Do you know that I was once awakened too?" 

Hotaru questioned her.

"No. How did you get awaken?" 

Naru asked her.

"There was an evil woman. Her name was Nehelenia, she sent her 
soldiers to destroy me, but my 'Saturn Powers' destroyed them 
and I started to awaken. It was destiny that awakened me." 

Hotaru answered her.

"Oh." 

Naru replied with a soft sigh, 

"So destiny will awaken me when the time comes?" 

Naru asked them.

"We all are servants of destiny. When it comes, we must 
accept it and obey it." 

Haruka replied.

Mudious and hundreds of Dark Youma appeared.

"Then today, I will trigger the Soldier of Nature awake!" 

Mudious spoke in a serious tone.

"Everyone, Mudious and hundreds of Dark Youmas are here! They 
are going to trigger awake the Sleeping Soldier of Nature!" 

Haruka used her communicator to reach the others.

The others arrived within a few minutes, except the Sun Soldiers 
that used their Solar Teleport to get there. Mudious spoke.

"Now, let me see, what is the best way to trigger awake the 
sleeping Soldier of the Earth? Oh, I know! I will burn down 
the forests, I will drain the oceans dry, I will flood the 
deserts, I will freeze the rivers, lakes, and streams, I will 
evaporate the Ice caps, and I will level all the mountains in 
the world to flat land! Dark energy does as I commanded!" 

Mudious spoke causing dark energy to spread throughout the world 
causing chaos. The sleeping Soldier of Nature did not awake.

"Hey! She did not awake! What does she love most?" 

Mudious thought as he was looking around. Then he looked at 
Solar Sailor Moon. Naru stood up and cried out.

"You cannot! Do not take her to try to trigger me to awaken!" 

Naru cried out with mercy. Mudious did not listen.

"Dark Sword power up!" 

Mudious yelled out bring forth a dark sword that was about 
two feet long.

"HYAH!" 

Mudious yelled out sending the Dark Sword towards Solar Sailor 
Moon. It went so fast that there was no time for her to react. 
It stabbed her right through the heart and her Sun Moon Broach 
fell from her chest and hit the ground. Solar Sailor Moon 
retransformed back into Usagi. Only thing she was wearing was 
ribbon. Other than that, Usagi was nude. Usagi screamed as the 
Dark Sword pierced her chest. Blood came gushing out. Naru too 
started scream in complete and mental anguish. This was too much 
for her to bear. She let out a scream of her own that no one had 
ever heard!

"YOU BASTARD! YOU EVIL BASTARD!" 

Naru's raged increased as the Earth Symbol appeared on her forehead.
 
It was a circle with a + in the center of the circle. A reddish 
brown emblem started glowing. A reddish brown aura started glowing 
around Naru.

"You have taken the one thing in the universe that I 
cherish most!" 

Naru cried out. The Tiara that she found a couple of days ago 
floated In front of her and flashed and transformed into the 
'Shining Topaz Earth Crystal.' Naru felt the power rising 
from a long sleep. Tears running down her face echoed how 
her spirit felt for the person that injured just so she could 
wake.

The Shining Topaz Earth Crystal transformed Naru into the 
Princess of the Earth. She was wearing a beautiful gown 
that was a reddish-brown color. It was made of silk. The 
others just watched as the events of Naru's life was changing 
forever. Tuxedo Mask was also there, because 'he' felt that 'he' 
should be there. When he was Naru as the Earth Princess he 
spoke in Japanese.

"Tsuchi Hime Naruko!" 

He cried out.

"Earth Princess Naruko!" 

Rei translated for everyone else.

The Shining Topaz Earth Crystal flashed again and turned into 
the Senshi Stick of the Earth. Indeed, Princess Naruko, the 
Earth Princess had awakened. She was in a grumpy mood and was 
very angry!

"I WAS IN A DEEP SLEEP AND YOU USED THE SUN MOON CHILD JUST 
TO AWAKEN ME, THAT I FORBID IT! I WILL NOT FORGIVE YOU!"

Princess Naruko yelled out sending energy out that destroyed 
all the Dark Youmas!

"Earth Celestial Power! Make Up!" 

Princess Naruko cried out transforming her into Celestial 
Sailor Earth!

"For killing a child that I hold so precious, 
I will not forgive you! I am the Soldier of Nature! 
I am also the Soldier of pain, suffering, and healing! 
I am Celestial Sailor Earth!" 

Celestial Sailor Earth spoke to Mudious.

"Earth Nature Restore!" 

Celestial Sailor Earth cried out sending a flood of white 
energy restoring nature as it was before.

Then Celestial Sailor Earth looked at the slain girl that killed 
so Sailor Earth would awaken. Celestial Sailor Earth's heart 
filled with remorse. Celestial Sailor Earth went over where 
Usagi lay. She saw the sword that caused her to awaken. She 
grabbed the sword, pulled it out, and broke it into pieces. 
The others were surprised that she was able to break a sword 
so easily. Then her aura changed we looked down on the friend 
that had given her so much courage. She was now glowing white. 
She moved her finger to the wound that Solar Sailor Moon received. 
Her finger glowed white as she put her finger in the wound and 
healed it up. She removed her finger from the wound and then 
closed it up. Usagi's heart and lungs were working again normally. 
With a snap of her fingers, Usagi's broach floated by the wave of 
Celestial Sailor Earth's finger. It landed on Usagi's chest. With 
another snap of her fingers, she commanded it to open. It began to 
glow. It restored the transformation that broken by the Dark Sword. 
Then Solar Sailor Moon woke up. Celestial Sailor Earth 
retransformed and returned as Princess Naruko. Solar Sailor Moon 
saw Princess Naruko standing beside her. She saw Princess Naruko's 
aura change. Now it was blue. It seemed to reflect her sadness. 
Indeed, she was saddened by the events of the day. Princess Naruko 
offered her hand to lift Solar Sailor Moon up from the ground. Solar 
Sailor Moon accepted and Princess Naruko lifted her up on her feet.

"You have awakened, have you not?" Solar Sailor Moon 
asked her.

"Yes, I have awakened. Awakened when they took you from me." 

Princess Naruko replied.

"Do not worry, be happy. You are not alone. We are with you. 
Think of this as a new beginning for you." 

Solar Sailor Moon spoke to her gently.

"Thank you Solar Sailor Moon. No, thank you 
Princess Serenity, thank you."

A new beginning has begun for the Earth Princess Naruko. 
In addition, tomorrow is another new day.
