Serena ran through a park, and Molly called out to her. Molly said she was
worried about Serena, and asked if she knew anything about what was happening.
Serena hesitated, then said what could she know? Molly took Serena's hand,
and said that she thought Serena knew something but couldn't tell her, so she
wouldn't ask again. Serena thanked her and ran off, and Molly prayed that
Serena would be all right. Serena vowed that she would protect Molly and the
Earth.
Dimando wanted to know why Wiseman had killed his brother, and Wiseman replied that Saffir had gotten in their way. The day of vengeance had arrived, and all was secondary to his important mission. Dimando implied that Wiseman was using them, but Wiseman reminded him that he wanted revenge on Earth too.
The Scouts banded together, and transformed. As they did, the Black Crystal grew in size and power. The Scouts combined their powers and initiated the Sailor Teleport. They materialized in the Crystal. Suddenly an opening appeared beneath Sailor Moon's feet, and she plunged out of sight. Sailor Moon was deposited deeper in the Crystal. She noticed a figure in the shadow welcoming her, and realized it was Dimando. He leapt in front of her and took hold of her, saying that this time she would swear her love and loyalty to him.
He used his third eye again, and Sailor Moon's eyes changed to a solid deep
blue. She affirmed her loyalty to him. Dimando moved to kiss Sailor Moon, but
a tear ran down her cheek as she whispered "Darien". Enraged, Dimando shook
her from her trance, saying that he would make her his. Sailor Moon said that
he couldn't make someone love him, but Dimando used his third eye again. This
time Sailor Moon averted her eyes, saying that even if he succeeded it
wouldn't be real love. She lifted her heard for a moment and became
mesmerized again. Dimando extended a hand and ordered her to swear loyalty to
him, but Sailor Moon had flashes of memories, seeing Reeny, the Scouts, Molly,
and finally Darien. She snapped out of the trance.
Dimando couldn't believe it, and Sailor Moon asked him why he wanted to destroy everything. He said the Dark Moon Family just wanted to live on Earth, and his people and hers couldn't co-exist. Sailor Moon said that wasn't true, and Dimando realized that Wiseman had deceived them. He turned to Sailor Moon ready to listen, when Wiseman appeared and ordered him to kill her. Dimando refused, and Wiseman struck. They fought, equally matched, as Sailor Moon watched. Suddenly Wiseman appeared near Sailor Moon and released a blast directly at her. Sailor Moon staggered back, but at the last minute Dimando took the blast himself.
Dimando struggled to his feet, when Wiseman sneered that Dimando didn't have enough power to finish this. Dimando summoned a final blast that overwhelmed Wiseman and shattered him. His empty cloak and crystal ball fell to the floor.
Dimando collapsed and realized that the Dark Moon family had come to an end. Unnoticed by them, Wiseman's crystal ball flashed a skull face and rose into the air. Wiseman began to pull himself together.
Dimando remembered the four sisters living on Earth, and said perhaps there was hope for his people after all. He asked Sailor Moon to take care of them, and Sailor Moon (on the verge of tears) agreed. He died.
Wiseman seized Sailor Moon by the throat, and demanded the silver crystal. She
refused, and called out for Tuxedo Mask. Wiseman laughed, and let her go,
showing her images of Darien and Reeny
Sailor Moon snapped out of it, and said that her friends would never betray
her. Enraged, Wiseman released an energy blast. A rose flashed by and
deflected the blast, and Tuxedo Mask appeared. Wiseman laughed, and the Black
Crystal surged with power. He vanished, and Tuxedo Mask said that they must
seal the gateway.
The Scouts and Tuxedo Mask emerged on a platform at the peak of the Crystal.
Black Lady floated above them, and released energy. She said she would open
the Black Gate and cast the world into Darkness. Sailor Moon told her that
she would die if she accepts the power of the Black Crystal, but Black Lady
replied that they didn't understand her, and that she'd kill them all.
Black Lady blasted Sailor Moon, but Tuxedo Mask threw himself in front of
Sailor Moon. Black Lady couldn't believe it, but the Scouts explained that if
what you do for the people who are important to you, that she was a very
important person to them all. They started calling her Reeny again, but
Wiseman interfered and ordered her not to believe them. He sent more of the
Dark Crystal's power to her.
They were all pinned down by the storm of Dark Power, but Tuxedo Mask and
Sailor Moon remembered King Darien's words, that they would face many
challenges. Tuxedo Mask said they must unite their power if they wanted to
succeed. They joined hands and stood together, and Sailor Moon lifted her
silver crystal and cried "Moon Crystal Power!"
Neo-Queen Serenity and Black Lady's moon insignia began to glow, and Black
Lady saw the memory of Reeny crying because her parents wouldn't pick her up.
This time, they explained that they wanted her to learn to help herself, and
raised her to be able to depend on herself. Wiseman interferes (again!), and
engulfs them in a column of Dark Power. They float within it, as Wiseman told
Black Lady that everyone was born alone and would die alone. He then wiped her
parents from her memory. Black Lady blasts Serenity and Tuxedo Mask, but
despite the power assaulting her, Serenity told Black Lady to leave this
place. It was hurting her physically and mentally.
Black Lady reminded her that it was dangerous for her too, but Serenity
replied she didn't care for her own life, and wanted her to be safe. Serenity
lifted the silver crystal and activated it again, and Black Lady was hit by
memories. Serenity reminded her that everyone suffered hardships in their
lives, and that's when they must hold onto memories of good times.
The memories faded, and the three of them stood together. Serenity said the
warmth she felt was the love others had for her. Black Lady realized she
wasn't alone, and her Dark Moon insignia vanished. She moved to embrace
Serenity, and as the column of Dark Power vanished it revealed Serenity,
Tuxedo Mask, and a sleeping Reeny. Serenity turned back into Sailor Moon.
Reeny woke up as Sailor Moon collapsed momentarily. The Dark Crystal surged
again, and Wiseman appeared above them telling them that even though he lost
the power of Black Lady, the Gate was open and he would destroy the world. He
lifted his crystal ball and blasted them all. Everyone was helpless under the
assault, and Tuxedo Mask said the world would be destroyed.
Sailor Moon stood and with the silver crystal swept the Dark Power away from
them. Walking clear of the others, she said she wouldn't let them die. The
others cried to her that if she used the full power of the silver crystal
she'd die. Wiseman hit her with another column of Dark Power, but when it
disappeared it revealed Neo-Queen Serenity again. She opened her eyes and
released the power of the silver crystal. Wiseman did the same with the Black
Crystal, and the energy clashed.
Sailor Moon and Reeny (returned to normal) floated alone enveloped in pink
light. The voice of Queen Serenity told them that the silver crystal had
performed a miracle, that they were still alive, and that everyone was
waiting for them.
They both were unconscious. Sailor Moon recovered, and rushed to Reeny, who
awoke as well. The Dark Crystal slowly shrunk and vanished.
In the future Reeny ran on a hillside, with a restored Crystal Tokyo in front
of her. She found Neo-Queen Serenity, King Darien, and the Sailor Scouts of
the future waiting for her. She walked up and curtsied. Then she ran to her
mother and hugged her. Neo-Queen Serenity welcomed her home.
The light of the silver crystal blinded everyone, and in the future the same
light engulfed the sleeping Neo-Queen Serenity. In the present the light died.
To everyone's astonishment, Sailor Moon had transformed into Neo-Queen
Serenity. She told Black Lady that it was time to remember her childhood.
Neo-Queen Serenity strained, but the power of the crystal grew. Reeny started
crying "It's all my fault." One of her tears fell, and became the silver
crystal of the future! Reeny asked the silver crystal for help to protect
everyone, and in a flash of light
Reeny and Serena hugged tightly. Reeny said "Thank you... Mama". Reeny turned
away and used her key, vanishing into the future. Serena whispered goodbye,
but Darien put his arm around her.
