	Chapter 12 – Promises “Queen Aminia, what has happened to Neesan and Hoshi-ouji?? Hoshi-ouji, murmuring something about a mistake, ran off a little while after Phoenix and Pan, but only Pan returned!” Claire questioned the Queen impatiently. The Queen gave her a sad look. “Gomen Claire, demo, the Sailor Senshi have defeated your sister, and my beloved son.” Pan stood beside the queen, and nodded. Claire gasped as tears began to fall from her eyes. Hikari put her hand on her friend’s shoulder. “I…I’ll kill them!!” Claire screamed, running off. The queen just turned. “Come Pan, we have work to do.” she beckoned. Hikari looked at the two. Something wasn’t right here. She decided to follow them. “My Queen, what are your orders?” “You failed to kill Phoenix…but even I had not expected my own son of being a traitor. Now the two of them have their memories back. Hmm, all right. Claire is in a weakened state, as is Hikari. I believe they are starting to remember…get rid of them.” “Your…highness…I do not mean to question you, but is there something I should know? What is it that you do not want us to remember?” Aminia turned coldly towards Pan. “Baka…remember your place…” Pan shut her mouth and nodded. She then turned to go find Claire. Hikari, having overheard everything the two had said, followed Pan closely. Claire stormed towards the park, recklessly destroying everyone and everything that came in her path. It didn’t take long for the Sailor Senshi to show up. Sailor Star, now knowing the identities of the masked warriors, tried to talk to her. “Claire-chan! Don’t you remember me?! You have to stop this!” “URUSAI!” she screamed, tears almost blinding her as she attacked everything in sight. “Aquatic Mirror Shatter!!” She screamed, sending a tidal wave knocking over a large group of people. Suddenly, Pan popped out of nowhere. “Hah, so reckless. I suppose I have to take care of you too now. And to think, all this because you thought your sister was dead. Hahaha!” Pan mocked. Claire stopped blasting. “My…sister’s alive?!” “Haha, yes, but it doesn’t matter. After I finish you off, I’ll go after her too!! Crater Eruption!!!” “Elegant Wind Dance!” Hikari jumped in front of Claire once more, using her attack as her only defense. She too, had no idea how powerful Aminia had made Pan. “Aaaahh!!” She screamed as her body flew threw the air. “Nooooo!! Claire cried, running to catch her fallen ally. “Why…why did you do that?!” Claire could barely manage to push threw the tears. “Baka…I already told you that if you died…I would miss you…” Hikari could no longer keep her eyes open, she passed out in Claire’s arms. Pan smiled. “Haha! This has been fun, but I will return…for now. But don’t worry Claire-chan, I’ll come to finish you all off!” “Sailor Moon…” Sailor Star began. But she didn’t need to finish. “Moon Healing Activation!” Claire held Hikari as her eyes opened slowly. “Hikari…Ai shiteru.” She whispered.
