Chapter 15: Taiki to the Rescue? Democracy vs. Duty to the Princess! Usagi, Chibi-Usa, Hotaru, Ami, Rei, Minako, and Makoto were all meeting at Crown Fruit Parlor. "It's a shock to learn that the Three Lights are actually the Starlights," said Usagi. "Well, that explains where Seiya-chan went when I battled with Star Fighter on my date," said Hotaru. "You went on a date? When did this happen?" asked Minako. Hotaru silently blushed, and Chibi-Usa said "The Three Lights are going to be on a radio program this afternoon. We can go and see them and get in the audience." "That sounds like fun!" exclaimed Rei. "Yeah. We can have even better chances of being their friends now that we know for certain they're Sailor Senshi, just like us!" added Makoto happily. Taiki sat alone in the apartment, remembering yesterday's shocking event. Who would have thought Hotaru and Chibi-Usa were really Sailor Saturn and Sailor Chibi Moon? Yaten opened the door, followed by Seiya. "Hey! What are we going to do now? I think we should let the Earthling Senshi battle Galaxia even harder. Then she won't notice us," said Yaten coldly. "Yaten-oneesan, we are Sailor Senshi too. That means that we're all fighting Galaxia together. No other planets can be destroyed. To accomplish that, we need to work with the Earth Senshi and help them," disagreed Taiki softly. "Yeah, you're just pining for your little pink spore. I always thought you were rational and unemotional, but now I see you're just as bad as Seiya," snapped Yaten. "It's not because of any connection to her. It's because there can't be one ruler of the galaxy. We need to defend democracy," said Taiki, still barely speaking above a whisper, as usual. "What?! Defend democracy? We live a monarchy, or are you too young to remember that, baby?" growled Yaten, grabbing Taiki by the throat. Taiki stared back, showing no emotion. Suddenly Seiya tackled Yaten, shoving her to the floor. "Stop that! Taiki-chan has perfectly logical reasons for helping the Earth Senshi!" she screamed. "OWW! Shut up! And get away from Hotaru!" yelled Yaten, struggling to get up. The two sisters tumbled around on the floor again, as Taiki anime-sweatdropped. Meanwhile, Rei was doing a fortune-telling job that her grandpa had set up for her. "I hope no one I know sees me. That would be really embarrassing," she said. Of course, Seiya was the first person to come. "I have a girl in mind. One of my sisters thinks the romance is okay, but the other says I'm losing focus," she said. "Well, what's the problem with that girl?" asked Rei. "I want to see her, but one of my sisters won't let me!" shouted Seiya, getting impatient. "You'll find her, if you really love her," reassured Rei. "Oh, thank you, wonderful psycho!" gushed Seiya, kissing Rei on the forehead. "I'm a psychIC, not a psycho," mumbled Rei, as Seiya ran away, giggling. Then Hotaru came in. "I have a girl in mind. I wanted to explain to her about a misunderstanding. I should have told her an important secret," said Hotaru. "Hotaru-chan, you're not going to get your question answered coming to me! Go to this place. The Three Lights are doing a live radio show, and you can talk to Seiya-chan there," said Rei, taking her mask off and giving Hotaru a card. "Thank you, Rei-chan," said Hotaru, leaving with the card. She headed for the radio station, and after the program, approached Seiya. "I wanted to apologize for not telling you who I was," she said. "Get away from her!" shouted Yaten, shoving Seiya away. "OW! I'll get you, you...!" Seiya throttled Yaten, and the two of them started wrestling on the floor again. Then Lead Crow showed up. "A person who brings music to people must have a true Star Seed!" she shouted, extracting the DJ's Star Seed, creating the phage, Sailor DJ. "Huh? Saturn Crystal Power, Make Up!" shouted Hotaru, transforming into Sailor Saturn. Then Sailor Moon showed up to help her. "You are attacking a person who brings a song of love to everyone! I won't forgive you!" she shouted. "Agent of love and justice, pretty Sailor Senshi, Sailor Saturn!" "Sailor Moon!" "In the name of the Moon, we shall punish you!" they finished together. Sailor Saturn swung her Glaive at the phage, sending it flying into the wall. "Now, Sailor Moon!" she commanded. "Silver Moon...Crystal Power Kiss!" shouted Sailor Moon, turning the phage back into a normal person. Lead Crow approached them from the front. "Now I will whip you into shape!" she shouted, brandishing her whip. Meanwhile, Tin Kitty was sneaking up behind. "That silly Crow. Attacking from the front is for stupid people," she said, pulling a kitty-paw gun. She took aim at Sailor Moon's back, unnoticed by Sailor Saturn and Sailor Moon. As the shot was fired, Taiki wordlessly ran up and jumped in front of the blast, and was knocked unconscious! "Taiki-chan! Wake up!" shouted Sailor Moon and Sailor Saturn. "Star Serious Laser!" "Star Senstive Inferno!" Two attacks came flying at Tin Kitty, destroying her gun. She and Lead Crow left through a telephone booth, fighting like Seiya and Yaten had done earlier. Star Fighter and Star Healer started to drag their injured sister out of the studio. Star Fighter was crying too much to speak, but Star Healer turned around and glared at Sailor Moon and Sailor Saturn. "Get away from Taiki, Moon-brat, and that goes for the pink spore, too! It's your fault she was injured!" she accused, as she left.
