Sailor Moon Online: Hollow Fragment

 

Chapter 27/Epilogue: Into Tomorrow

 

February 4, 2025, SAO, Unknown location

 

Right now, within the realm of SAO, we find Sailor Moon and Kirito, supporting a weakened Sailor Celestial, are looking around and are amazed to see that they are floating among the clouds.

 

Sailor Moon asks, “Where are we?”

 

Kirito says, looking around, “Well, I think that we are still in SAO.”

 

Sailor Celestial asks, “How do you know?” Kirito then points in a direction and Sailor Moon and Sailor Celestial in which they are shocked to see the floating castle of Aincrad below them and it is also crumbling apart into pieces.

 

Sailor Moon says, “That’s Aincrad!”

 

Sailor Celestial asks, “Okay, so, we are outside of Aincrad in the SAO world?”

 

Kirito says, with a nod, “It looks like Sugu. I don’t know what’s going on here.” Just then there is a light from them and they hear a teleportation effect.

 

Just then a female voice calls out, “Where is this?” Kirito, Sailor Moon, and Sailor Celestial look in the direction of the voice and they see someone that looks like a young teen girl that has lustrous and gorgeous, long, purplish-black hair, the skin of her face shows milky white skin that has a hint of purple and red eyes with this young girl wearing obsidian half-armor, which covered her chest and had a slight bulge, a bluebottle violet blouse and a windswept dress of the same color beneath the armor, but what’s most prominent about this young girl is that she has pointed elf-like ears.

 

The four of them look at each other in surprise and Kirito thinks in his mind, “What’s a girl doing in a place like this?”

 

Sailor Celestial thinks in her mind, surprised, “She looks like…”

 

The violet haired girl says, amazed, “Oh, wow! I know you! You are Sailor Moon, aren’t you? You have been missing for over two years now!”

 

Sailor Moon says, nervously, “Um, yeah…That’s me.”

 

Sailor Celestial says, “It is a long story. I’m Sailor Celestial, a brand new Sailor Scout. I need ask you a question.” When the girl looks at Sailor Celestial, she asks, “Are you an ALO player by any chance?”

 

The violet haired girl responds, “Yes, I do. I’m Yuuki. Do you know about ALO?”

 

Sailor Celestial says, with a smile, “Of course I do! I played the game too!”

 

The violet haired girl, Yuuki, yells out, with an excited tone in her voice, “Oh, wow! That’s incredible!”

 

Kirito thinks in his mind, curiously, “This girl is an ALO player, the game based off the SAO server? What’s she doing here? And why did she come here at this time?”

 

Yuuki asks Sailor Celestial, “Wow, you look pretty beat up. Are you okay?”

 

Sailor Celestial says, with a smile, “I’ll be fine. I’m just recovering from my last big battle here.”

 

Yuuki responds, “Oh, okay. By the way, where are we? Is this a VRMMO?”

 

Kirito says, “I’m not surprised that you don’t know anything since you just came from the outside, but yes, you are right. This is another VRMMO. This is…Sword Art Online.”

 

Yuuki asks, shocked, “Sword Art Online? You mean the game you can’t log out off?”

 

Sailor Celestial says, with a nod, “Yes, but it’s all right. We just completed the game.” Sailor Celestial says, motioning towards the still crumbling Aincrad, “Look over there.” When Yuuki looks over in that direction and sees the crumbling Aincrad, Sailor Celestial says, “That’s Aincrad, the setting for SAO, and it is falling apart because we completed the game.”

 

Yuuki says, excitedly, “Oh, wow! That’s why you are so beat up! You must have just beaten the final boss, haven’t you? You must be really strong!”

 

Sailor Celestial says, with a weak smile, “Yeah, but I had help.”

 

Yuuki says, “That’s why Sailor Moon must be here, right? She is a real hero!”

 

Sailor Moon says, nervously, “I wouldn’t say that!”

 

Kirito says, “We did it together, Yuuki-san.”

 

Yuuki says, “Wow! It must have been a real blast to work with Sailor Scouts! You are a lucky guy…!!”

 

Kirito says, “I’m Kirito, Yuuki-san.”

 

Yuuki says, with a smile, “Nice to meet you, Kirito-san. This is really excitedly! Three of the people that cared SAO and two of them are Sailor Scouts especially Sailor Moon! I’m meeting Sailor Moon in person!”

 

Sailor Moon thinks in her mind, nervously, “She is an excitable type like Strea.” Kirito and Sailor Celestial were thinking on the same lines as Sailor Moon about Yuuki.

 

Kirito says, nervously, “It isn’t really any big deal.”

 

Yuuki responds, “Hey, Kirito-san! I’m sorry if this sounds rude, but I’ve got to ask: Can you fight me in a one-on-one duel?”

 

Kirito, Sailor Moon, and Sailor Celestial give gasps of surprise and Sailor Celestial asks, surprised, “Huh?”

 

Yuuki says, “If the game is cleared, I doubt that I’m going to be here long. And I would like to see the awesome strength of the people that cleared SAO.”

 

Kirito says, with a sigh and a smile, “Celestial is still pretty battered from the final battle. The boss was no pushover, trust me.”

 

Sailor Celestial thinks in her mind, drolly, “No kidding, big brother.”

 

Kirito says, “I’ll have a duel with you.”

 

Yuuki asks, excitedly, “Really?”

 

Sailor Moon asks, nervously, “Is this really necessary?”

 

Kirito says, with a smile, “I think that Yuuki is a good person, U-Sailor Moon, and she did ask nicely.”

 

Sailor Moon thinks in her mind, with a smile, “Same old Kirito.”

 

Kirito then brings out his menu, a bit surprised that it still works, and he tells Yuuki, “Anyway, Yuuki, we’ll use the Duel Mode application if it is okay with you.”

 

Yuuki says, “Okay!” When Kirito is done, Yuuki asks, as a prompt appears in front of her, “So, this is the application for a duel, huh?”

 

Kirito says, “If you are ready, hit okay.” When Yuuki does so, Kirito says, “Now, it is best that you select ‘First Strike’ mode, but it doesn’t mean to land the first strike. It means to land one critical hit that sends your opponent’s health bar to yellow or being the first to send your opponent’s health bar to the yellow area. Despite us clearing the game, we are still in SAO and I don’t want to risk either of our lives, you see.”

 

Yuuki says, with a smile, “Yeah, I understand!” Yuuki completes and the ‘Duel Prompt’ appears in the sky showing the words ‘Kirito VS Yuuki’ with the pictures of the faces of the two players by their respective names. After the countdown is finish, while Sailor Moon, supporting Sailor Celestial on her shoulders, Kirito and Yuuki engage in an intense duel in which Yuuki, wielding a black thin rapier-like one-handed sword, moves around with incredible speed and reaction that really pushes Kirito onto the defensive.

 

Sailor Celestial says, amazed, “She is keeping up with big brother.”

 

Sailor Moon says, stunned, “I’ll say, Celestial. She…She isn’t any ordinary player.” However, Kirito manages to bring Yuuki’s health bar to the yellow zone, but only barely.

 

With the duel done, the prompt reappears to show that Kirito is the winner and Yuuki says, amazed, “Oh, wow. You are so strong, Kirito.”

 

Kirito responds, “Well, I only won by a neck, Yuuki. You are really incredible.”

 

Yuuki says, with a smile, “You’re flattering me.”

 

Kirito asks, curiously, “Anyway, Yuuki, who are…?”

 

Just then Yuuki starts to glow and she says, “Oops! It looks like that I have to go.”

 

Kirito asks, stunned, “Already?”

 

Yuuki says, with a smile, “It looks like it, Kirito. Sorry, but I hope to see you, all, again.”

 

Sailor Celestial says, with a smile, “Something tells me that we will, Yuuki.”

 

Yuuki says, “I hope to test my strength against you and Sailor Moon someday. I had a great time.”

 

Kirito says, with a smile, “Yeah, me too.”

 

Yuuki says, with a serious tone, “And next we meet, I’ll be stronger.”

 

Kirito says, “I’ll look forward to that.” Soon after, Yuuki glows as she vanishes through a teleportation effect. Kirito asks Sailor Moon, “You saw it too Usagi?”

 

Sailor Moon says, with a nod, “Yeah. That speed shouldn’t be possible unless you are someone like Celestial. It is beyond the limitation of SAO.”

 

Kirito says, nodding his head in agreement, “I’m also wondering how she got here. You can only be here through a NervGear like most of us or…”

 

Sailor Celestial says, remembering, “A Medicuboid like Sinon, Dai, and Akari came in!” Kirito nods his head, but then Kirito, Sailor Moon, and Sailor Celestial start to glow.

 

Sailor Moon says, “It looks like we don’t have the time. We are the last ones left.”

 

Kirito says, with a smile, “Yeah, we are Usagi…I mean Serena.”

 

Sailor Celestial gets off of Sailor Moon’s shoulders and she says, “I’ll be all right, sis.”

 

Sailor Moon says, “You know that doesn’t feel weird at all to me.”

 

Kirito says, “Me neither. Something tells me that I share the same ‘heritage’ as you two.”

 

Sailor Moon says, with a smile, “Actually, we do, Kirito. I remember now. All three of us grew up together in the Moon Kingdom.”

 

Sailor Celestial says, “It was the same situation that you and I share today, big brother.”

 

Kirito says, nodding his head in understand, “I’m not surprised since I felt this ‘family bond’ with you ever since we met in SAO, Usagi.”

 

Sailor Moon says, with a warm smile, “And if it wasn’t for you and Asuna, Kirito, I don’t know where I would be. Thank you for so much.”

 

Kirito says, with a warm smile, “You took the words out of my mouth, Usagi. I feel the same way.”

 

Sailor Celestial says, with a grin, “Come on! You act as if we aren’t going to see each other again! We can be together back in the real world! I’ll find you in Juuban…Once my body is back up. I haven’t been as here as long as you, but I haven’t been using my body in close to three months, so, I don’t think that I’ll be getting up right away.”

 

Kirito says, with a grin, “Try two years, Sugu. I think that you are going to be up and about way before me and even Usagi.”

 

Sailor Moon says, “Well, our powers are going to help to accelerate our healing process, but I think that you are going to be up before I will be, Celestial. However, I can’t wait to finally meet you in the real world.”

 

Sailor Celestial says, “Same here, sis.”

 

Kirito says, “See you later, Usagi.”

 

Sailor Moon says, “Later, Kirito…Leafa…” Soon enough, the three of them glow and vanish through a teleportation effect and shortly afterwards, the world of SAO vanishes forever with the destruction of Aincrad finished.

 

February 4, 2025, Chiyoda Hospital

 

Inside of Suguha Kiriguya’s room within Chiyoda Hospital, we look at her as her eyes twitch and she slowly opens her eyes causing her to look around.

 

Suguha thinks in her mind, woozily, “Where…Where am I? This looks like a hospital. Wait! A hospital?” Suguha tries to sit up and she grunts in pain in which she thinks in her mind, “Oh, man! My body feels like lead!” Suguha manages to drag herself into a sitting position on her bed and she thinks in her mind, “I feel weak…Weaker than I did after I beat Kayaba…Wait! I beat Kayaba! The game…!!”  She then struggles to lift her arms up in which she feels something in her left hand and she looks at her left hand causing her to gasp to see the broach that she wore in her Valkyrie Sailor Scout form is in her hand. Suguha thinks in her mind, “My broach! It did happen! Then that means…!!” Suguha puts her broach on a nearby table and she groans as she puts her hands, noticing that they are somewhat pale and thinner than she remembered, and takes off a NervGear from off her head causing her hair, which is slightly longer due to nearly being three months trapped in SAO without cutting it, to flow out. Suguha thinks in her mind, “It feels weird talking, in a way, to an inanimate object, but I don’t think that what happened with SAO is your fault as the same as Aincrad. You were only doing what you’re creator ‘commanded’ you to do and in a way, you were a pawn in his sick games. Thank you for helping me in my quest to get my big brother, my sister, and all of the friends that they had in SAO back home.” Just then images of Kirito and Usagi/Sailor Moon come to her mind as she puts the NervGear onto the table, she then removes her bed sheet, removes cords and electrodes on her body to monitor her vital and stimulate her muscles to prevent atrophy, and the IV wires as well causing the alarms to sound off, but Suguha ignored it. She slowly puts her feet on the floor and nearly falls over in the process, due to the weakness of her body, and she keeps herself up only with stand containing the IV wires. She uses it as a crutch to get over to a nearby hospital gown and puts it on her form in which she then goes back to the stand containing her broach taking it off the stand. Suguha then thinks in her mind, as she starts to push herself forward, “Usagi…Serena…Asuna …Everyone…Kazuto and I will find you all…Promise…”

 

As Suguha exits her room, we are in another hospital room where we find someone that looks like Kirito lying down on a hospital in a hospital gown and having a NervGear on his head in which Suguha Kirigaya and a youthful looking woman with black hair tied around her head, brown eyes, and rough blouse over a cotton shirt and slim jeans with her looks makes her seem like a woman in her twenties or thirties, not a woman in her early forties. The teen boy lying on the bed is Kazuto Kirigaya, the ‘real life form’ of Kirito, and the woman with her is her adoptive mother/aunt, Midori Kirigaya, the mother of Suguha, in which she has a solemn look on her face which isn’t surprising since both of her children are trapped in the infamous ‘death game’ Sword Art Online AKA SAO. Shortly after the second year that SAO had started, she had gotten a call from work that inform her, to her horror, her daughter had just used a NervGear that she had ‘mysteriously found’ and logged into SAO. The next time that she saw her daughter, she found her in the same hospital as her beloved adoptive son with the NervGear on her head and Midori was given a note made by Suguha before on why she is doing this. It nearly broke her, but somehow, she managed to stay strong for both of her children, however, it has been tough for her since it has been nearly three months since Suguha entered SAO to try to bring her brother home.

 

Just then Midori then hears a commotion outside and she turns to see a nurse enter the room in which she asks, getting to her feet to look at the nurse, “What’s going on?”

 

The nurse shouts out, “They are waking up! All of the surviving SAO players are waking up!”

 

Midori asks, stunned, “What?” Midori then sees the nurse gasp as she is looking behind her and Midori slowly turns to see Kazuto in a sitting position on his bed, removing the NervGear from his head, causing his hair, longer due to the fact that he has got it cut for the over two years due to the fact that he was trapped in SAO, to flow out, and looking it at. Midori can only look at this in stunned silence because she couldn’t believe it was happening and she rubs her eyes only to see the same sight expect that Kazuto turns his head to look at him. Midori asks, weakly, “Kazuto?” Midori slowly walks over to him and she touches him. Kazuto tries to speak, but it is hard since he hasn’t been using his vocal cards for over two years.

 

However, he manages to croak out, weakly, “M-Mom…?”

 

Midori then says, shedding tears of joy, “Oh my Kami! Kazuto!”

 

She prepares to hug him, but the nurse says, in a concerned tone, “Please be careful! He is really weak and his body is fragile!” Midori realizes the nurse is right and she stops herself in which she puts her forehead gently to his forehead with tears of happiness and joy in her eyes.

 

Kazuto then says, weakly, “W-We did it…We…both…made it…” Midori then gasps at what Kazuto meant by that and then she hears some shouting coming from nearby.

 

Just then Suguha’s voice then booms, “I’m just fine! Let me in there!” Everyone then looks to see Suguha, breathing heavily from the massive effort, due to her currently weakened body, to walk into the room and still supporting herself by stand for the IV wires and bags.

 

Midori’s eyes grow wide and she asks, “Su-Suguha?”

 

Suguha looks at her mother, gives a nervous look, and she says, weakly, “Sorry, mom. I wanted to get big brother back before the holidays. I’m sorry that I’m late.”

 

Midori shouts out, excitedly, “Suguha!” Midori runs over to her daughter, puts her hands on her shoulder, causing Suguha to winch due to her body being weaker than when she left for SAO despite being in better condition than her brother, and Midori starts to cry in which Suguha to weakly hug her mother.

 

Suguha says, with a smile and a weaker voice than she usually has, “Sorry, mom…but we’re home…Kazuto and I made it…We did it…” Suguha and Kazuto look at each other, they smile, and they look at the window as images of Sailor Moon and their other friends from SAO come into their minds.

 

February 4, 2025, Juuban Hospital Ward

 

Around the same time, with Juuban Hospital, we are inside of the hospital room of one Serena Tsukino, looking quite pale and thin after she had been trapped in SAO for over two years and wearing just a hospital gown, sitting up in her hospital bed surround by her mother, Ikuko Tsukino, her father, Kenji Tsukino, and her younger brother, Sammy Tsukino, in which Ikuko is crying as she gently touches her daughter. Her NervGear is on a nearby table with her broach.

 

Ikuko says, “My baby…my princess…”

 

Serena says, weakly, “I’m okay, mom.”

 

Sammy tells Serena, with tears in his eyes, “You rotten Meatball Head! Don’t you dare ever worry us like that again, you got it?”

 

Serena asks, with a teasing smile, “You were worried about me?”

 

Sammy responds, “Why wouldn’t I be Meatball Head? You know your record with games!”

 

Serena says, with a smile, “I missed you too squirt.” Just then they hear a door opening and everyone looks to see Darien and the Sailor Scouts in their ‘civilian forms’, minus Ami AKA Sailor Mercury, run into the room with Artemis and Luna, the two Lunarian felines, also run into the room with Luna leaping onto Serena’s bed.

 

Lita says, excitedly, “Hey there!”

 

Serena asks, with a smile, “What kept you guys?”

 

Raye says, with a smile, “Very funny, Meatball Head.” Darien walks over to her and kisses her on the forehead gently.

 

Darien tells Serena, “Welcome home, Sere.”

 

Serena says, with a warm smile and tears in her eyes, “Thank you, Darien-kun.” Serena then asks, noticing Ami missing, “Where’s Ami?”

 

Amara says, with a smirk, “She is just contacting her boss on the SAO Victim’s Task Force with some ‘special information’ that he would love to get his hands on.” While Serena’s parents are confused, Serena just smirks knowing that a certain someone is about to get what he deserves.

 

February 5, 2025, Elsewhere in Saitama District

 

Within another hospital in the Saitama District, we find there is a tall young man with dark eyes with short brown hair that’s normally slicked back looking like a mess inside of a hospital room being treated by nurses and doctors with armed guards watching over him.

 

Just then Seijirou enters the room and the man yells out, angrily, “I demand to know what the meaning of this is!”

 

Seijirou says, “Well, Nobuyuki-san, you aren’t in a position to demand anything since you are under arrest.”

 

The man, revealed to be Sugou Nobuyuki, the ‘real life version’ of Alberich, shouts out, “For what? What right do you have to arrest me?”

Seijirou takes out his ID, shows it to Sugou, and he says, “Well, I’m Seijirou Kikuoka, head of the SAO Incident Victim’s Rescue Force of the VR Division of the Ministry.” Sugou yelps out in shock and Seijirou says, “And you are under arrest for six thousand cases of reckless endangerment when you tampered with the SAO severs.”

 

Sugou says, a bit nervously, “I don’t know what you are talking about.”

 

Seijirou says, with a sly smile and pushing buttons on his smart phone, “Oh, really? Then you mustn’t know about this, Nobuyuki-san.” Seijirou shows Sugou the screen of smart phone causing Sugou’s eye to grow wide and he yelps out at what he sees in which Seijirou says, with a sly smile, “I got this information from a very reliable source and there is so much more. Anyway, when you are up about after you had recovered enough since you were in a ‘coma’ for about three months, you are going to be transported to a ‘safe house’ for safe keeping until your trial. Oh, yes! By the way, the boards of RCT Progress and the parent company have known about this information long until Shouzou-san in which several weeks ago, you have been removed from your position as head of RCT Progress. You are not only under arrest, but you are also unemployed and the American companies that you have been in contact with…Well, let’s just say that this information ‘leaked out’ making them having a ‘change in interest’, Nobuyuki-san.” Sugou yelps knowing that this means that he is completely ruined and his ambitions are completely destroyed for good as shown by his anime style defeated face with his twitching right eyebrow while Seijirou looks at him with a satisfied smirk on his face.

 

February 7, 2025, Juuban District

 

Within the Juuban District, we go to their hospital where we find the ‘real life forms’ of Taichi, Yamato, Takashi, Junpier, Sam, and Miyako, who are known as Tai Kamiya, Matt Ishida, Takeru ‘TK’ Takashi, Jun Motomiya, Ken Ichijouji, and Yolei Inoue in the hospital bed and wearing hospital gowns surrounded by their family and all of their friends, Digidestined, minus Davis and Kari, and Digimon, minus Veemon and Gatomon.

 

Mimi asks, “How are you doing today?”

 

Yolei asks, with a sigh, “Do you have to ask Mimi?”

 

TK says, with a smile, “We’re doing better, but we haven’t been using our real bodies for over two years.”

 

Joe says, with a smile, “We’re just glad that you are safe, TK.”

 

Sora says, with a nod, “That’s what matters right now.”

 

Hawkmon says, “You had us so worried, Yolei.”

 

Yolei says, “Sorry, Hawkmon.”

 

Mimi says, with a sigh, “I wish that Davis and Kari were here.”

 

Just then the door to the room opens and a familiar male voice calls out, “You called?” Everyone then looks to see the ‘real life versions’ of Dai and Akari, Daisuke ‘Davis’ Motomiya and Hikari ‘Kari’ Kamiya, both of them dressed in outfits similar to their Digi-World clothing expect modified for their late teenage forms and completely health, as well as Veemon and Gatomon enter the room.

 

Mrs. Kamiya asks, shocked, “Kari?”

 

Kari says, with a smile, “It’s me, mom!” Mrs. Kamiya then runs over to Kari, embraces her, and at the same time, Mrs. Motomiya embraces her son with tears in her eyes.

 

Mrs. Motomiya yells out, “Davis! Davis, you little scamp! How dare you? Do you know how worried I was about you?”

 

Davis responds, with a warm smile, “Sorry, mom.” Davis and Kari hug their mothers while they look at Tai and Jun and all four of smile at each other as the Odiaba Digidestined and their Digimon partners are now reunited once more.

 

February 7, 2025, Toritsu Central Hospital

 

Inside of another hospital, Toritsu Central, Suguha has collapsed to the ground in front of two bars that are set up for patients going through physical rehabilitation to ‘re-learn’ how to walk for various reasons and watching this happen is her brother, Kazuto, who is currently in a wheelchair, since he was trapped in SAO for longer than Suguha and is currently in much weaker condition, along their mother, Midori, and various doctors and nurses in which a few of them run over to her.

 

Kazuto says, weakly, “Sugu!”

 

Kazuto winches in pain due to his body being so weak and Suguha says, struggling to her feet, “I’m okay…big brother…”

 

One of the doctors says, “Kirigaya-san, you must take it easy! While you weren’t trapped in that nightmare for as long as your brother, you haven’t been using your body for nearly three months causing you lose a significant amount of strength and your body is more fragile than before. You would be in worse shape if not for your kendo training, but you are significantly weaker than before and your recovery, while incredible for the past three days, doesn’t mean that you can get up and walk.”

 

Suguha says, with a grunt, “I kind of got that.” Suguha winches and she holds her side causing her mother to step forward out of her concern.

 

The doctor then says, “There is also the fact of the various mysterious bruises and black and blues on your body as well. They have seemed to have appeared on the day that you have woken up with the rest of the survivors.

 

Kazuto thinks in his mind, “I think that I have a good idea. The battle between Sugu and Kayaba caused those ‘injuries’ on her because her powers made the pain absorbers unable to do their job, so, every time that Sugu inflicted damage to her opponent, they felt it big time. However, it also made impossible for the pain absorbers to negate the pain from the damage that Sugu got and she suffered from multiple hits including the impalement in which it was so bad that her body and mind was ‘tricked’ to thinking that she got real damage through thankfully, not to the level like when she got impaled by Kayaba’s sword that nearly killed her. It was by sheer force of will that Sugu kept going despite all of the pain and agony she must have been feeling while Kayaba let her have it and he let her have it right in the face. Personally, those ‘battle scars’ will heal. I’m more worried about the ‘battle scars’ in her heart as well as Usagi’s heart.”

 

February 7, 2025, Neo Domino City

 

Inside of Neo Domino City, the current mayor of the city, Lazar, is inside of his office as he turns on a screen and human-like male and female figures with all of their features covered up appear on the screen.

 

One of them says, in a male voice, “Report.”

 

Lazar says, “SAO is officially over and all of the survivors are back in the real world.”

 

Another figure says, in a female voice, “Good. We have good intelligence that Kayaba did his job. Sailor Celestial has been awoken.”

 

Lazar asks, shocked, “Are you sure?”

 

The first figure that spoke responds, “Do you question us?”

 

Lazar responds, a bit nervously, “No. It is just my past history with organizations like yours before…”

 

The female figure says, “Understandable. We can also report that Neo Yliaster will soon be on the move.”

 

Lazar’s eyes widen and he then says, “Understood. I will begin the protocols immediately.”

 

The male figure says, “Good, Lazar. SAO may be over, but war is about to begin and it will be fought in this world, the virtual world, and beyond in worlds that are even beyond our imagination.”

 

Lazar says, drolly, “That’s just great. Sorry, but I already had my fill of this kind of war from the Dark Signers.”

 

The female figure says, “We know, but this war will make the war between the Dark Signers and the Signers fought some years before look like a walk in the park.”

 

Lazar says, drolly, “That’s encouraging, madam.”

 

The male figure says, “Then you know what’s at stake, Lazar. And speaking of Signers, the Crimson Dragon won’t just lie down and do nothing. Even as we speak, new Signers are being chosen to lead the fight that’s to come. You know what you must do and bring them together with the original Signers, who will help train them and the new Duel Priestess. The power of the ‘chaos dragon’ that’s the counterpart of the Crimson Dragon will also be a factor in this world.”

 

Lazar says, with a nod, “I know, sir.” The screen goes blank and Lazar sighs as he looks over pictures of Yusei and his friends in which there are also files where see pictures of our Moon Princess and our Digidestined with their Digimon partners as well.

 

March 7, 2025, Tokyo Bay

 

Today, Tokyo Bay looks like a war zone as a legion of youma and Dark Digimon along with people that look like they have Digivices, in which these Digivices are dark and give off sinister energy, are battling against Japanese Self-Defense Forces troops, police, and finally, Tuxedo Mask and the Sailor Scouts, minus Sailor Moon, along with five hundred Digidestined and their Digimon partners, including members of Odiaba Digidestined and their Digimon minus those that went to SAO expect for Davis and Kari, who thanks to the ‘regeneration chambers’ based on the Medicuboid technology, are health and ready to go.

 

We also find that the Sailor Scouts are all sporting new Eternal Sailor Scout forms similar to Eternal Sailor Moon’s fukus expect the colors and footwear and Kari is in her new Sailor Scout form of Eternal Sailor Sun fighting by her Digimon partner, Magnadramon, Gatomon’s Mega form, as they continue to fight against the onslaught in front of them.

 

A female news reporter is with a camera crew stationed some distance away, but having full view of the actions in which we find her saying into her microphone, “I’m coming to you from Tokyo Bay as it has become a battlefield as the monsters that used to terrorize just the Juuban district and the creatures known as Digital Monsters or Digimon have launched an all-out assault in Tokyo Bay and they have overwhelmed the police and military in which now, they are mainly fighting against the Sailor Scouts, who have recently reappeared after mysteriously vanishing for around several months, the brand new Sailor Scout known as Sailor Sun, and the people that have bonded with these mysterious creatures made of digital information, the Digimon, known as Digidestined, who are claimed to be protectors of the balance of our world and the Digital World, the home of these Digimon, which was created from the vast information of interlock computers…!!” However, before she can say anymore, there is a loud explosion near her location and the shockwave nearly sends her to the ground in which immediately, the news crew and the report get some more distance from the battlefield which has become even more intense.

 

Sailor Mars unleashes a firestorm in the form of a phoenix that vaporizes two youma and knocks two Champion Digimon down for the moment in which she shouts out, “This is just great!”

 

Sailor Uranus tells Joe, who is being guarded by Zudomon, the Ultimate form of Joe’s partner, Gomamon, “Get the wounded out of here!”

 

Joe, who is tending to wounded Digidestined, Digimon, police officers, and military personal with some help, responds, “I’m trying, but there are just too many!”

 

There is an evil laugh hard and Sailor Mars says, with a sneer, “Oh, great! I know that laugh!” Out of a dark portal, Jadeite makes his appearance and creates a black crystal sword.

 

Sailor Mercury says, “It’s Jadeite!”

 

Jadeite says, with an evil grin, “You, Sailor Scouts, are getting annoying, but this time, no one is going to stop us!”

 

Just then a familiar female voice yells out, with a strong tone, “Then call me no one, Jadeite!” Before anyone could say or do anything, a rain of laser fire and elemental energies rain down on the youma and Dark Digimon causing dozens upon dozens of them to be destroyed instantly.

 

Cody asks, “Who did that?”

 

Sailor Jupiter says, with a grin, “It looks like the cavalry has arrived!” Soon after, Valkyrie Sailor Celestial lands on the ground with a ‘thud’ causing the concrete ground around her feet where she land to crack slightly.

 

Jadeite says, with a shocked look, “It’s you: Sailor Celestial!”

 

Sailor Celestial responds, “That’s right, Jadeite! I’m VALKYRIE Sailor Celestial at your service and in your face!” Sailor Celestial then zips over to Jadeite and bashes right in the face, sending him flying through the wall of one warehouse and out the opposing wall in which he lands on the ground with a mighty ‘thud’.

 

Sailor Uranus says, with a whistle, “Not bad.” The youma and Dark Digimon are stunned, but they quickly regain their composer and prepare to counterattack, however, Sailor Celestial unleashes a barrage of fire from her rail-guns and GN Blade that devastated the youma and Dark Digimon in which she then draws out the Star Saber and with the creation of one energy wave nearly all of the surviving youma are vaporized in which the remaining Dark Digimon and their allies start to immediately to take off.

 

The Odiaba Digidestined is amazed by Sailor Celestial’s power and skill and UlforceVeedramon tells Davis, “Whoa! She is something!”

 

Davis, sporting his two Keyblades, responds, with a grin, “She is like a one Sailor Scout army, buddy!” Sailor Celestial prepares to go after them, but she then dodges an attack from Jadeite, who is badly scuffed up, but hasn’t suffered any injuries beyond minor cuts and black and blues.

 

Sailor Jupiter says, annoyed, “Doesn’t that guy know when to quit? He is really annoying!”

 

Sailor Mars says, “Now, you know how Mercury and I feel, Jupiter.”

 

Jadeite says, “I should have known if that bratty Moon Princess was reborn in this time that her sister would be reborn too!”

 

Sailor Celestial responds, with a smirk, “What can I say? You just can’t keep a good princess down!”

Jadeite responds, “Well, I will be the first one to succeed and I can’t wait to see that Moon twit’s face when I bring her your corpse!”

 

Just then another familiar female voice shouts out, “You rang, Nega-trash?” Jadeite turns to the source of the voice only to get rammed by a silver energy dragon that blasts him into a group of wooden crates that crumble to piece when his form impacts them. Everyone then looks to where that attack came from to see Sailor Moon, but she is radically different than before.

 

This brand new Sailor Moon has silver streaks in her blond hair, there is a silver Medieval barbute style helmet on her head and scalp with a crown engraved into it and a silver version of Slifer the Sky Dragon on the top portion of the helmet with holes in the helmet to let out her pigtails exposing the buns which have circular diamond jewels in them, her two moon sigils is on her forehead in their respective colors, there is silver eyeshadow on her eyelids, her lips are a deep, full, and gorgeous sparkling pink color, her armored fuku has been replaced by armored chest and waist plates that are exactly like golden versions of samurai armor that tight hug her frame to show her feminine lines and curves perfectly, on the chest portion of the armor, there is a brand new heart-shaped broach which is slightly bigger than the last one, the heart-shaped broach is like a prism in texture and color, there are crossed silver swords in the center of the broach, a golden crescent moon in the center of the sword, with Slifer the Sky Dragon, Ancient Fairy Dragon, and Ancient Pixie Dragon surrounding the swords, the broach has eight white wings surrounding and attached to the sides of the broach, she has white armored shoulder pads connected to armored gloves that extends up to the shoulder pads with the armor covering her arms is being European Medieval style, there are silver armored gantlets attached over her armored wrists with a ‘projector’ attached to her left gantlet that creates a shield and GN Blade exactly like the one that Gundam Exia uses attached to her right gantlet, she has an armored skirt attached to the end area of her waist armor with the armored skirt being as long as her other ‘sailor skirts’ with the skirt being silver, black, and rainbow colored in color, and she has knee-high high-heeled armored boots with five inch knife-like heels on her feet. Attached to her armored skirt is a Magi Staff similar to the ones that the Mystic Force Power Rangers use and a sword similar to the Remains Heart sword that Lisbeth made for Kirito in SAO before it was turned into a Keyblade and there are eight huge and fluffy white feathered wings attached to her back.

 

Sailor Mars asks, “What’s Meatball Head doing here?”

 

Sailor Jupiter responds, “And more importantly: When did she become a Valkyrie level Sailor Scout?!”

 

Jadeite, battered and bruised, leaps out of the destroyed boxes and he yells out, seeing Sailor Moon, “You!”

 

Sailor Moon responds, “That’s right, Jadeite! I’m back and I’m better than ever! You are dealing with the brand new Valkyrie Sailor Moon and I’m going to punish you by kicking you ass, Nega-trash!”

 

Sailor Uranus says, with a smirk, “Not bad. It needs improvement, but not bad.”

 

Sailor Mars says, annoyed, “Please don’t encourage her, Uranus.”

 

On the meanwhile, the newswoman says, facing the camera and speaking into her microphone, “It’s her! After over two years of mysterious absence, the mythical heroine of Juuban, Sailor Moon, has returned in a brand new form and looking stronger than ever!”

 

Sailor Moon thinks in her mind, overhearing the reporter, “I really hope so because while my powers have been helping my recovery, it only has been over a month since I left SAO and I need eat a lot more to replenish the energy used by the Silver Crystal to slow my body ‘degrading’ down after not using it for over two years.”

 

Jadeite says, “All I see is an armored plated Meatball Head Moon Princess and you and your sibling are about to…!!” Just then everyone hears something like a shot being fired and Jadeite is then slammed by an energy arrow that sends him flying in a cartoonish and comical manner into Tokyo Bay itself causing plenty of looks of surprise from a lot of people.

 

Sailor Celestial says, with a nervous look, “That was anti-climactic.”

 

Sailor Moon says, with a nod, “No kidding.” Soon after, the surviving Dark Digimon and the ‘Dark Digidestined’ assisting them teleport away and Sailor Moon says, “That’s not a surprise.”

 

Sailor Celestial tells Sailor Moon, with a nod, “Typical chickens.” Sailor Celestial tells Sailor Moon, “However, what the heck are you doing here?”

 

Sailor Moon asks, “What do you mean sis?”

 

Sailor Celestial yells out, “What do I mean? You know darn well what I mean! What the heck are you doing coming out here when you haven’t fully recovered yet? Sure, the Silver Crystal and your Sailor Scout powers speeds up your recovery, but it has been only over a month and don’t put me into it, Sailor Moon! I was only in there for three months, but you were there for over two years!”

 

Sailor Moon says, nervously, “Okay! Okay! I get it!” Sailor Moon says, with a serious expression that’s unlike her before SAO, “But I just couldn’t let my friends get pummeled in a war zone like that! I’ve already seen too much suffering and too much unnecessary death! I don’t like the fight…I don’t want to fight, but I just won’t sit around and do nothing or run away while people are suffering from madman or any evil force ever!”

 

Soon after, Tuxedo Mask and the other Sailor Scouts gather around and Sailor Mars asks, with a sigh, “What are we going to do with you, Meatball Head? And when did you become a Valkyrie Sailor Scout?”

 

Sailor Moon responds, nervously, “Actually…I don’t know.” There are plenty of anime sweat drops and face-faults at those words and Sailor Moon says, “You see, I was watching what was happening in television and I really wished that I had the strength to help in which broach glowed with an incredible light causing me to see a woman that looked like a combination of Celestial and I in this form…”

 

Sailor Pluto asks, surprised, “You and Celestial as Valkyrie Sailor Scouts?”

 

Sailor Moon says, with a nod, “Yeah.”

 

Sailor Neptune says, looking over her shoulder, “I think that we should discuss this somewhere else.” Sailor Neptune points in one direction and they see a large group of reporters heading towards them.

 

Sailor Jupiter says, nervously, “Yikes!”

 

Sailor Neptune tells Sailor Moon, “They are going to want to talk to you, Sailor Moon.”

 

Sailor Moon says, with a sigh, “I’ll bet.”

 

Sailor Mars tells Sailor Moon, “You aren’t getting out of this Meatball Head.”

 

Sailor Moon says, after giving another sigh, “I know, Pyro.” Soon after, the Sailor Scouts take to the skies while Tuxedo Mask uses his super-human agility, speed, and strength to take the rooftops and easily follows the flying Sailor Scouts.

 

Sailor Moon and Sailor Celestial turn in one direction and Sailor Celestial shouts out, “By the way…Thanks, Orion!” Everyone looks in the direction that Sailor Moon and Sailor Celestial and they see none other than Sailor Orion on the roof with her bow and a small smile on her lips in which Sailor Moon and Sailor Celestial wave at Sailor Orion while the Digidestined and their Digimon assist in aiding the wounded and ‘cleaning up’ the area.

 

Late March 2025, Japanese countryside

 

In the late days of March of 2025, we are in the mountainous regions of Japan, there is a wooden cottage in which Sailor Moon and the Moon Kingdom Sailor Scouts including none other than Sailor Celestial along with Tuxedo Mask appear via teleportation in front of it.

 

Sailor Jupiter asks, “Is this it?”

 

Sailor Moon says, with a nod, “It is, Jupiter. I should have remembered about it.”

 

Sailor Mars tells Sailor Moon, “Hey, Meatball Head, you were just a little girl back then.”

 

Tuxedo Mask asks Sailor Moon, “Are you sure about this love?”

 

Sailor Moon responds, “More than anything, Darien-kun.”

 

Sailor Celestial says, “I sense that there is someone inside, but it is just a regular human.”

 

Sailor Uranus says, with a nod, “Same here.” As the Sailor Scouts and Tuxedo Mask approach the cottage and prepare to see if the door was open in which the door opens in which a petite young woman in her late twenties with short straight black hair is front of them.

 

Sailor Moon gives a look of surprise and she thinks, stunned, “It’s her! What’s she doing here?!”

 

Sailor Uranus yells out, sternly, “Who are you? And what are you doing here?”

 

The young woman responds, “I’m Rinko Koujiro.” The young woman then tells Sailor Moon, “But you already know that, don’t you, Serena?”

 

There are multiple gasps and Sailor Moon asks, “So, he told you?”

 

The young woman, Rinko, responds, as well as nodding her head in agreement, “Yes. He also mentioned in a message to my website that you would be coming here one day.” Rinko then looks at Sailor Celestial and she asks, “I see that you have brought Sailor Celestial with you or do you prefer Suguha Kirigaya instead?”

 

There are more looks of shock and Sailor Celestial says, plainly, “He told you everything.”

 

Rinko replies, “He did. He explained to me about yours and his ‘connection’, how he met you in this life, and how he made sure that your brother got trapped in SAO by making sure that he became an SAO beta tester in order to force you to ‘awaken’. I never thought he could ever go this far.”

 

Sailor Mercury asks, curiously, “You know this person?”

 

Sailor Moon responds, “She… used to be a friend of the family. Do you remember that woman that Sugou pinned over, but loved Kayaba? You are looking at her.” There are gasps of shock and Sailor Moon says, “Her name is Rinko Koujiro, the woman in love with Akihiko Kayaba.”

 

Rinko says, with a nod, “That’s me.”

 

Sailor Uranus says, “You must know that we’re not going to be here alone much longer.”

 

Rinko replies, “I won’t resist.” Rinko then steps backwards inside and to the side to allow Sailor Moon, Tuxedo Mask, and the Sailor Scouts to enter into the cottage in which they look around to see it simply furbished in which they look at the fireplace see multiple pictures in which one of them is a child Serena wearing a play helmet and sword with her mother and Kayaba in which Ikuko is painting a picture of something that looks like Aincrad, there is a painted picture of Aincrad on the wall, and on a nearby table, there is an old fashioned RPG game known as Wizardry with a Go board on it.

 

Sailor Saturn says, “You wouldn’t think that the first great ‘VR criminal’ in history would be here.”

 

Sailor Uranus says, “As they say: It is always the quiet ones.”

 

Sailor Celestial says, plainly, “No kidding, Uranus.”

 

Sailor Neptune tells Sailor Mercury, “You and Firefly excluded of course, Mercury.”

 

Sailor Mercury kindly smiles at Sailor Neptune and Sailor Mars calls out, “I’ve found him!” Everyone then looks at Sailor Mars, who is at the door leading into another room of the cottage, and she says, with a sigh, “Or what’s left of him.” Everyone then assembles into the room where they find a simple, but good sized bedroom where there is plenty of high-tech equipment with a mini super-computer connected to a powerful satellite with wireless and non-wireless connections. And in the bedroom, there is a bed with something or someone covered by a blanket. Sailor Venus winches, thinking what it really means, and Sailor Uranus goes over to the bed and covers the ‘form’ under the blanket in which the motionless body of Akihiko Kayaba is revealed, obviously showing that he is dead, but it looks like he just died recently.

 

Tuxedo Mask says, plainly, “It’s him.”

 

Sailor Neptune says, amazed, “It looked like he died yesterday.”

 

Sailor Mercury, using her visor and computer, says, “There is some kind of strange compound in his body that’s preserving his body and preventing any decay.”

 

Rinko says, “He had found the compound on one of his trips and he says that it can preserve bodies down to the smallest of cells like they died recently. It prevented decomposer for over a year based on what his message said. He told me to use it shortly after he is dead and I am completely sure that he is dead.”

 

Tuxedo Mask says, “He knew that he would be here sooner or later.” Sailor Pluto takes a look at a vile on a nearby table.

 

Sailor Pluto says, “It is a special preservation compound for biological matter used in the Silver Millennium. It was used to preserve the bodies of heroes and heroines that fought bravely in protection of their homes, families, and kingdoms. It was also used in scientific matters with ‘samples’.”

 

Sailor Mars says, with a snarl and nasty tone in her voice, “I doubt that HE qualifies.”

 

Sailor Moon asks Sailor Mercury, “Can you find out how he died?”

 

Sailor Mercury activates a computer along with the other hardware in the room and he says, “Yes, I can. However, I can theorize on one thing.” Sailor Mercury then displays a modified NervGear and she says, “I believe that it has to do with this modified NervGear. It looks to be specially modified with this computer hardware possibly a part of it.”

 

Tuxedo Mask says, “Please get to work, Mercury.”

 

Sailor Mercury says, “Of course.”

 

As Sailor Mercury gets to work, Sailor Moon’s right hand turns into a fist and she asks, “Why?” Everyone looks at Sailor Moon and she looks at Rinko in which she yells at him, with an angered tone that’s typically not like her, “Why didn’t you stop him?! You knew where he would be, so, why? Why?!”

 

Rinko responds, nervously, “I didn’t know that he was going to do this and I really didn’t know that you…”

 

Sailor Moon says, with tears in her eyes, “It didn’t matter if I wasn’t trapped! Do you know how I really feel? Do you think that you can understand the betrayal in my heart?! This was supposed to be a wonderful new adventure…A new frontier for everyone! And instead, he turns it into a nightmare! A ‘hell’ that I had to suffer through for two long years and I had to see hundreds of good people get killed…No, murdered right before my eyes. People with friends, family, and people that they loved and cared for in which they did so in return… Their lives just snuffed out and for what? A game! All this pain and suffering for a stupid game?!”

 

Rinko responds, “Yes, Serena! I am a coward! A wretched coward, but you can’t say that you would kill the man that you love!”

 

But then Sailor Celestial shouts out, angrily, “You self-righteous bitch!” Sailor Celestial grabs her by the throat causing to choke her slightly and Rinko desperate tries to remove Sailor Celestial’s hand around her throat, but Sailor Celestial’s massive super-human strength makes it impossible for Rinko, a regular human, to do anything against her. Sailor Celestial tells Rinko, with a deadly glare in her eyes, “Don’t you dare use that excuse with me? You will never use that excuse with me! What about the friends and family of the SAO victims, huh? Can you ever understand the anguish, pain, and the sorrow that they are feeling that they will never see them again?! Tuxedo Mask, the girls, and I had to each a precious people that we love and care for waste away right before our eyes while they had to suffer in that nightmare after Kayaba perverted the very technology that he created for his own selfish gains! How do you think that the loved ones of those that died felt when that fear came true?! And even worse, he murdered all of those people to force my powers to awaken? You can’t even begin to understand my level of pain and anguish much less the pain and anguish of those that suffered under the plans and machinations of that madman that dared to call himself our father?!” A dark look starts to appear in Sailor Celestial’s eyes and Sailor Moon puts her arms around Sailor Celestial’s arm that has the hand around Rinko’s throat.

 

Sailor Moon says, with a worried tone, “Sister, please stop!” The dark look fades from Sailor Celestial’s eyes and she drops Rinko to the ground in which she starts to cough to regain air into her lungs.

 

Sailor Celestial tells Rinko, “No matter what I can say or do, I can never bring back the lives that I saw snuffed out. However, you have no right to be so selfish and make any excuses ever.”

 

Sailor Mercury says, “Incredible!”

 

Everyone looks at Mercury and Sailor Venus asks, “What’s up?”

 

Sailor Mercury says, “Based on what I can find out, when Sword Art Online ended, this modified NervGear did a high output scan on his brain.”

 

Tuxedo Mask asks, “A high output scan?”

 

Sailor Mercury says, with a nod, “Yes. He was basically trying to transfer his mind onto the net itself.”

 

There are gasps and Sailor Venus says, stunned, “No way!”

 

Sailor Mercury says, “However, the aftereffects is much like what happened to other SAO players that died, his brain is completely destroyed. And this type of thing is usually one in a thousand chance of succeeding. It is most likely that he destroyed his brain and the scan completely failed.”

 

Sailor Uranus asks, “When did he scan his brain?”

 

Sailor Mercury says, “You aren’t going to believe this, but he used the scan exactly on the day that ‘glitch’ occurred on Sword Art Online: November Seven, Twenty-Twenty-Four.”

 

There are stunned and confused looks and Sailor Jupiter asks, “Hold up! Then who or what did Sailor Celestial fight in the final battle at the Ruby Palace?”

 

Sailor Celestial says, “It was him. I knew it.”

 

Sailor Mercury says, “Then it could only mean that it had worked. He had successful transferred his mind onto the net.”

 

After getting back on her feet, Rinko says, “He did to work on the ‘errors’ that were being caused by Sugou and the stored emotions of the players.”

 

Everyone looks at Rinko and Tuxedo Mask says, plainly, “He told you.”

 

Rinko says, “Yes. He also said that he planned to accelerate his ‘end game’.”

 

Sailor Uranus says, “His fight with Sailor Celestial.”

 

Rinko responds, nodding her head, “That’s right.” Rinko then goes over and touches a place on the wall causing it to go inside revealing a secret panel within the wall with a briefcase inside.

 

Sailor Venus asks, “What’s that?”

 

Rinko says, taking the briefcase, “He had planned to give you this later on, but he said that when you arrived, you are need to be given this to be used at a future date.” Rinko hands the briefcase to Sailor Celestial, who looks at Rinko, takes the briefcase, and opens up causing her to get confused as she sees what looks like crystal pendulum necklaces along with strange crystal bracelets and Duel Monsters cards inside.

 

Sailor Celestial asks, “Crystal pendulum necklaces as well as bracelets and Duel Monster cards?”

 

Rinko says, “I have no idea what they are for, but he said that when the ‘war of the worlds’ begins, you will be able to unlock their power and use them wisely.” When Sailor Celestial touches the cards and crystal pendulum necklaces, no one notices that her broach glows for a brief second, but Sailor Pluto ‘senses’ something.

 

Sailor Celestial asks, with a huff, “And what are we supposed to be: Grateful?”

 

She slams the briefcase closed and Sailor Mercury asks, “What do you want to do?”

 

Sailor Moon doesn’t reply for a second and she says, “Make two copies of all of the logs, programming, and whatnot. One for us and one for the police then delete all of it. I want nothing that anyone could ever use and then turn off and take this all apart, but leave intact for the police.”

 

The others are a bit surprised by her reply, but Sailor Mercury says, “Okay, Sailor Moon.” Sailor Mercury then starts to get to work as Sailor Moon starts to head off.

 

Sailor Jupiter asks, “Where are you going?”

 

Sailor Moon says, “Gather up his personal items here. He doesn’t deserve it, but I’ll give him a bit of dignity and not leave anything that could be used as a trophy.”

 

Tuxedo Mask asks, “Do you need any help?”

 

Sailor Moon says, with a nod, “Thank you, Tuxedo Mask.” Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Moon then head off and start gathering the various items in the room in which Sailor Moon looks at the picture of her as a child with her Earth mother and Kayaba in which she thinks, with tears in her eyes, “Baka…” Sailor Moon puts the items into her sub-space pocket and she looks to see Rinko with a letter in her hands.

 

Rinko says, “This is a message for you.” Sailor Moon takes the letter, shakes it to hear something inside, and she takes out a flash drive, but she then throws the letter to Sailor Mars, who has come out of the room.

 

Sailor Mars asks, “What?”

 

Sailor Moon tells Sailor Mars in reply, “Please burn it.”

 

There are gasps and Rinko asks, “Why?”

 

Sailor Moon responds, in a plain tone, “There is nothing that he can say that he will make me feel anything for him. I can’t forgive him. I may one day, but not today and especially not now.” Sailor Moon says, “I learned some harsh lessons. Before SAO, I always believed that everyone can be changed and can be ‘redeemed’ if you reach out for them, but Kayaba taught me that not everyone can be ‘saved’ and ‘redeemed’. No, they have to be stopped and defeated before good and innocent people can suffer. I learned that how naïve I truly was.”

 

Tuxedo Mask tells Sailor Moon, “No, Sailor Moon. You were not naïve.” When Sailor Moon looks at Tuxedo Mask, he says, “You were kind and caring. You had an open heart and mind. You believed in the best of humanity and the best in people, but what Kayaba did shattered that faith and that hope. And that’s something that I can never forgive him from doing. He damaged your heart and mind in ways that I will never forgive, but I believe that we can mend your heart as long as you let us in.” Sailor Moon sheds tears of happiness and cries on Tuxedo Mask’s chest in which he motions to Sailor Mars to burn the letter in which she does so without hesitation. Later on, the police arrived on the scene and Sailor Moon, Tuxedo Mask, and the Sailor Scout cooperated with the police in whom they assisted in removing the body of Kayaba and giving them one of the two copies of the data on computers and other hardware while assisting in removing it from the cottage. Rinko was taken into custody and charged with an accessory to Akihiko Kayaba and his crimes through she would let out on bail and later acquitted when there was a micro-bomb found inside of her body which the authorities, as well as the world, believes that she was another of Kayaba’s ‘hostages’, though she was in the real world, and made to help him during the whole of ‘SAO Incident’ in which the entrapped of Serena and the other nearly ten thousand other players in Sword Art Online. However, later on, Sailor Mercury would determine that this bomb was never real and it was made to deceive everyone that she didn’t help him out of her own free will, but Sailor Moon and the others decided to leave that fact out.

 

Late March 2025, Neo Domino City

 

During the same time of month, we are one of the many Turbo Dueling tracks in Neo Domino City where blue and white version of Yusei’s Duel Runner with flames painted on the sides with a rider having a flame designed version of Yusei’s helmet covering his features and wearing Davis’ Digi-World clothing while there is another Duel Runner designed like an old fashion motorcycle with a man with blue hair, brown eyes, and a yellow ‘mark’ across the right side of his face. His name is Kalin Kessler, a friend of Yusei Fudo, Jack Atlas, and Crow Hogan as well as a former Dark Signer. On Kalin’s side of the field, there is Hundred-Eyed Dragon (3000/2500), a Synchro version of his Dark Synchro Monster, against Shooting Star Dragon (3300/2500), the Accel Synchro evolved form of Stardust Dragon, in which Shooting Star Dragon attacks and destroys Hundred-Eyed Dragon costing Kalin the last of his 300 life-points. With the end of the duel, the holograms vanish and the two of go through an opening back to the main highways where waiting nearby is Kari, wearing a pink version of Akiza’s Duel Runner outfit and sitting by a pink and white version of Akiza’s Duel Runner.

 

Kari tells the duelist in duplicate of Yusei’s Duel Runner, “You did it, Dai-kun!” The duelist in the duplicate removes his helmet to reveal the face of Davis and he has a big grin on his lips.’

 

Davis responds, “As if there is any doubt.”

 

Kalin tells Davis, “You have done well, Davis. You have harnessed the power of Accel Synchro Summon like Yusei can, but you still have a ways to go.”

 

Davis says, “Yeah, don’t I know it.” Davis then uncovers his right arm to reveal the Dragon’s Head Mark of the Dragon and he says, “Kari and I are supposed to be the new generation of these ‘Signers’, the dueling warriors of the Crimson Dragon, a real powerful super dragon that protected this planet multiple times over.” Kari uncovers her right arm to reveal the Dragon’s Foot Mark of the Dragon that used to belong to Akiza.

 

Kalin tells Davis, “That’s not all. You are the heir to the first Signer of the Dragon’s Head, the Star Dragon King, and the powers of all of the dragons are within you, Davis.”

 

Davis nods his head and Kari asks, “But so far, Davis and I are the only Signers?”

 

Gatomon and Veemon come out from ‘hiding’ behind Kari’s Duel Runner and Gatomon says, “Something tells me that you will find the other four Signers in due time, Kari, and it is going to be an adventure to find them.”

 

Kari says, with a nod, “I believe you, Gatomon.”

 

Davis asks, “How is Rua and Luca…I mean Leo and Luna doing?”

 

Kalin says, with a smile, “They are okay. They are close to moving without the need for crutches and with Yusei and the others supporting them they will be just fine, but I doubt that they can even think of starting to do stuff like running yet.”

 

Kari says, “That’s good.”

 

Kalin says, “Yes, but you have to remember that VRMMO genre and in fact, Full-Dive technology in general has taken a hit. I can tell that people aren’t completed satisfied with Amusphere’s ‘it’s safer this time’ theme.”

 

Davis says, with a nod, “No joke, Kalin-sensei. Kayaba really opened up a ‘can of worms’ with what he had done.”

 

Kari says, “I’m afraid of what kind of ‘Pandora’s Box’ did he open and what we have to do to protect the people from the ‘wickedness’ that was unleashed.”

 

April 1, 2025, Mountainous Regions of Japan

 

Within the vast mountainous regions of the Japanese nation, somewhere close to Mount Fuji specifically, Valkyrie Sailor Celestial and Eternal Sailor Pluto are walking along the pathway toward an unknown location.

 

Sailor Pluto asks, “Princess, are you sure about this?”

 

Sailor Celestial responds, “I am, Pluto. And by the way, how many times have I told you not to call me that?”

 

Sailor Pluto replies, with a smile, “You may not be the heiress of the Moon Kingdom, but you are still a Moon Princess and even more than that, you are Sailor Celestial, an elite Sovereign Sailor Soldier and one of the great future queens of the universe as well as one of the greatest warriors of the Silver Millennium. You don’t demand respect, you have more than earned for all sorts of reasons.”

 

Sailor Celestial says, with a sigh, “I know. I might remember most of everything, but I’m still not use to this.”

 

Sailor Pluto says, with a smile, “Well, you were much of the atypical ‘warrior princess’ type and not a ‘fairy tale princess’.”

 

Sailor Celestial says, “You know it, Pluto.”

 

Sailor Celestial then stops in her track and Sailor Pluto asks, “Celestial?”

 

Sailor Celestial says, seemly to no one, “Okay, you can come out now! You are very good, but now, I can tell that someone is following us!”

 

Just then a male voice shouts out, “Very good. Not even Sailor Pluto could detect me so well despite her centuries of experience.” Soon after, a black clad masked ninja with green eyes that have a golden hue in it appears before them.

 

Sailor Pluto says, with a smile, “You are skilled as your ancestors and then some, Ryu-dono.”

 

The ninja responds, “It is good to see you again, Pluto. Do you prefer Trista Meiou these days?”

 

Sailor Celestial is surprised, but Sailor Pluto isn’t and she says, “You are a true Hayabusa ninja, Ryu-dono.”

 

The ninja replies, “Thank you, Pluto. I see that you have brought Princess Serenity’s recently ‘awakened’ younger sister.”

 

Sailor Celestial says, “You know.”

 

Sailor Pluto says, with a nod, “The Hayabusa is among the few that have knowledge of the Silver Millennium other than me, Princess.”

 

The ninja says, with a nod, “We do, Sailor Celestial-dono. I am Ryu Hayabusa, heir to the head of the Hayabusa ninja clan. I know why you are here. War is coming and the madness that was SAO was just the beginning.”

 

Sailor Pluto says, “I believe that you or your clan has some kind of ‘connection’ to the events to come.”

 

The ninja, Ryu Hayabusa, responds, “Correct and the might of the ‘Dragons of the Elements’ are going to be needed.” Ryu then says, “But before we continue…”

 

Sailor Celestial says, “I already know, Ryu-dono.” Sailor Celestial says, with a smile, “Okay, sis, come on out!” Sailor Pluto is surprised and when Sailor Celestial looks behind her, Sailor Pluto looks in the same direction to see Valkyrie Sailor Moon coming out into the open.

 

Sailor Pluto asks, surprised, “Princess?”

 

Ryu says, “It seems like your princess has learned quite a few tricks through I dare wonder what the ‘price’ was for those new tricks.”

 

Sailor Pluto thinks in her mind, looking at both Sailor Celestial and Sailor Moon, “I also fear what the ‘price’ for the level of power that my two princesses now possess which makes me very fearful about their future.”

 

April 9, 2025, Moon Kingdom

 

Within the restored Moon Kingdom, we find our SAO adventures and others roaming the halls of the palace with huge tables filled with food in the banquet halls in which Kirito, real name Kazuto Kirigaya, Asuna, real name Asuna Yuuki, Silica, real name Keiko Ayano, Lisbeth, who really has brown hair and eyes and real name being Rika Shinozaki, Agil, real name Andrew Gilbert Mills, a Japanese citizen of African-American descent, Klein, real name Ryoutarou Tsuboi, Philia, real name, Kotone, along with Thinker, Yulier, Yolko, Caynz, and Klein’s guild mates in SAO mixing it with Prince Endymon, the Moon Kingdom Sailor Scouts, minus Sailor Moon, and all of the Odiaba Digidestined and their Digimon partners. Sinon, real name Shino Asada, is also there in her Sailor Scout form of Sailor Orion along with none other than Sailor Neo Moon, the teenage version of Rini AKA Sailor Mini-Moon, and Sailor Nebula, who is revealed to be none other than Serena’s/Sailor Moon’s childhood friend of Molly Baker.

 

Sailor Venus tells Sailor Nebula, “Man, Molly…I mean Nebula, I never thought that you were a Sailor Scout!”

 

Sailor Nebula says, “There is a good reason. I am a powerful Sailor Scouts since I’m the Sailor Scout Guardian of every single star seed, true or otherwise.”

 

Sailor Mercury says, “It makes sense since space nebulas are involved with the birth and death of all stars.”

 

Sailor Nebula says, with a giggle, “Leave it to you to figure it out, Ami.”

 

Sailor Pluto says, “And you can understand why she didn’t awaken until after Galaxia was purified of chaos as well as why I never knew who she was reincarnated as.”

 

Sailor Nebula says, “Sorry for not telling you, but I had my own mission to perform. I really wanted to tell Serena and the others, but once I remembered, I knew that I had my mission to perform like Serena when I figured out that she and Sailor Moon are one in the same.”

 

Sailor Uranus says, “Since you are so close, it isn’t too surprising that you figured out Dumpling’s ‘secret’.”

 

Sailor Nebula says, with a sigh, “Yeah, but history repeated itself like it did in the Silver Millennium.”

 

Sailor Pluto says, with a smile, “You know that our princess doesn’t blame you and now, you have a chance to start over again, Nebula.”

 

Sailor Jupiter says, with a grin, “Yeah, Molly! Not to mention that you really helped us by getting the evidence to put that slime, Sugou, away!”

 

Ryoutarou says, with a nod, “Yeah, no kidding.”

 

Kazuto says, with a plain tone, “Based on what I heard from Seijirou-san, while they can’t get him on what he did to those players in SAO, the records of his tampering are rock solid and they are going to get him with over six thousand cases of reckless endangerment of our lives with one case per SAO survivor. From what I heard, life imprisonment is a high possibility, but Sugou is trying to weasel his way out trying to use temporary insanity.”

 

Sailor Pluto says, “However, there are enough records to make people think that he is totally mentally stable with his plans and with ‘leakage’ of certain facts, the public is in outcry for his imprisonment.”

 

Sailor Mars says, “If not lynching him.”

 

Kazuto says, “I think that his trial and imprisonment is enough. If we just kill him, we are no better than he was.”

 

Asuna says, with a nod, “I agree, Kirito-kun.”

 

Davis says, with a nod, “Same here, bro. I say put in a cell, throw away the key, and forget about him.”

 

Tai says, nodding his head in agreement, “No joke, Davis.”

 

Ryoutarou asks, “Anyway, aren’t we missing a few people?”

 

Rika says, “Yeah! Two of our stars aren’t here!”

 

Queen Serenity’s spirit then appears and she says, “My daughters should be arriving right now.” Just then there is a bright glow and Suguha, Serena, and the Tsukino family then make their appearance in which Suguha’s and Serena’s sigils appear on their forehead with Serena turning into Princess Serenity while Suguha’s hair become blond, goes into the exactly same style as Princess Serenity and Queen Serenity, her two sigils are on her forehead, her lips are a lovely deep pink color, and she is wearing a rainbow and silver version of Queen Serenity’s dress.

 

Plenty of the others are amazed and Kazuto says, shocked, “Sugu…”

 

Matt says, amazed, “Oh, wow.”

 

Keiko says, “Leafa…Suguha is really a princess.”

 

Rika whistles and she says, amazed, “No kidding, Keiko.”

 

Sailor Pluto says, “May I reintroduce you to Princess Serenity, heiress to the throne of the Moon Kingdom and the Silver Alliance, and her younger sister, Princess Selene Leafa Serenity, also known as Sailor Celestial, legendary Sailor Warrior of Reality.”

 

Asuna says, “She’s beautiful.” Suguha, in her ‘royal form’ of Princess Selene, shows that she is slightly unsteady on her feet.

 

Princess Selene states, “Man! How do you walk in these heels?”

 

Princess Serenity responds, with a giggle, “Says the Sailor Scout in high-heeled combat boots.”

 

Princess Selene tells Princess Serenity, “You know those are balanced for combat and running, sis!”

 

Princess Serenity says, with a smile, “If you say so, Selene-chan.”

 

Princess Selene gives an annoyed pout and Sailor Mars says, with a smirk, “Now I can see that they are indeed sisters.”

 

Overhearing her, Princess Serenity and Princess Selene yell out in unison, “What’s that supposed to mean Pyro?” Sailor Mars sweat drops at this while plenty of the others giggle as the two Moon Princesses and the Tsukino family joins in the celebration of clearing the game with the SAO survivors making it home.

 

Kotone tells Princess Selene, “Wow! You are really beautiful, Leafa…I mean Suguha…”

 

Princess Selene says, with a smile, “Yeah, it kind of gets confusing between names, Kotone.”

 

Rika tells Kazuto, with a smirk, “Speaking of royalty, aren’t you like our princesses’ brother in their past lives too?”

 

Kazuto says, as a golden crescent moon sigil appears on his forehead for a second, “Yep, kind of. Back then, I was the child of Queen Serenity’s sister and she and my father back then died saving a whole planet from an evil force. I was only one when they died and my aunt, Queen Serenity, took me and adopted me, so, technically, by blood and adoption, I’m a prince of the Moon Kingdom.”

 

Ryoutarou says, “Man, bro! You get all of the luck!”

 

Davis tells Ryoutarou, “Don’t knock it until you tried it, bro! Being a prince or princess is no walk in the park especially ones like us!”

 

Kari says, nodding her head, “You got that right, Dai-kun.”

 

Sailor Orion says, “So, it isn’t surprising that you felt a ‘bond’ between you and Serena since you were brother and sister at one time and forgive me for saying so, but you are also related by blood, in a way, in this life.”

 

Kazuto says, with a nod, “It is best you don’t mention that too much in front of Sugu. We learned that my biological mom’s and Sugu’s and my mom are linked to Kayaba through their mother since their mother, our grandmother, was sister to Kayaba’s mom, so, we are like distant cousins to Kayaba at best.”

 

Asuna asks, “Anyway, Sinon-chan, how are you feeling?”

 

Sailor Orion responds, “Just fine. My body is back to normal since I was only in SAO for close to three months like Suguha and my powers enhanced my recovery, so, I healed quite quick.”

 

Kazuto says, with a nod, “Not surprising, Sinon…Oops. I mean Shion.”

 

Sailor Orion says, with a smile, “It’s okay. Anyway, I want to thank you. I would have died in that world and thanks to you, I had not only survived, but I had found my own power.”

 

Kazuto tells Sailor Orion, “It’s just fine, Sinon. But remember what the other Scouts told you, it isn’t the power that defines you and it isn’t true strength. Your true power comes from the heart and you define Sailor Orion.”

 

Sailor Orion says, “I know and your sister showed that in the final battle at the Ruby Palace.”

 

Kazuto says, a bit more solemn in his tone of voice, “Yeah…” He then looks out towards Princess Serenity and Princess Selene in which the two of them are looking at a group of ‘objects’ which include a painted marble statue of Kazuto, as Kirito with Elucidator and Dark Repulser, Asuna, in the same Knights of the Blood Oath outfit with her SAO rapier, Lambent Light, and finally, Princess Serenity, as Usagi, with her hooded cloak with the hood down and both of her swords, Escalon and Lunar Excelsior, fighting against some unknown enemy, a large stone like the Monument of Life in the Town of Beginnings in SAO with the names of all of the ‘good’ SAO players with those that died having a white star on them, and finally, a third painted statue depicting Leafa, Princess Selene, and Valkyrie Sailor Celestial with Davis as Dai and Kari as Akari with Sailor Sun.

 

Asuna tells Kazuto, “We’re all worried about her and Usagi-chan.”

 

Kazuto says, with a sigh, “Ever since that she ‘awoke’ and regained her Silver Millennium memories, she feels that a bit of the blame goes to her since one of the reasons for SAO and especially trapping me there in the first place was to force her powers to awaken. I was afraid of what would happen if Sugu made too many friends in SAO and now, she won’t be the same since she is forever scarred by SAO like we are.”

 

Queen Serenity comes over and she says, “My daughters will have to come to terms with their emotions and their memories much you have to do, my son.”

 

Asuna takes Kazuto’s hands into hers and she says, when Kazuto looks at her, “Serenity-dono is right, Kirito-kun. And that just makes her like us: A fellow SAO survivors in all sense of the word in which we wish that she weren’t at least in the terms of the scars, but she isn’t alone and we’ll get through this together.”

 

Kazuto says, with a smile, “Thanks, Asuna.” Asuna smiles warmly back in which Rika and Keiko are a bit jealous, but they get over it…for the moment. On the meanwhile, we go to the two Moon Princesses as they look at the two sets of statues and the mysterious monument, which are among what are known as SAO Memorial Monuments, in which they think about what happened during their times in SAO.

 

Princess Selene says, “I don’t deserve this statue.”

 

Princess Serenity says, “Plenty of players would say otherwise, sis.”

 

Princess Selene says, “I’m not a hero, only a survivor like you and them. I rushed right in just like he plotted.”

 

Princess Serenity says, “However, your victory wasn’t meaningless at all. It was a symbolic victory that the nightmare of SAO was finally over.”

 

Princess Selene says, “Yes, I know. However, the Full-Dive technology and VRMMO are now scarred thanks to that self-centered jerk. When I became part of ALO, I learned the truth of VRMMO. They were a new frontier where people could live out their greatest dreams, reinvent themselves, and in plenty of cases, reveal who they truly are rather than the restraints of society keep them back through that can be a curse rather than a blessing.”

 

Princess Serenity says, “No kidding, Selene-chan.”

 

Princess Selene says, with a snarl, “He had so much talent and ability and he could have benefited all mankind, but instead, he chose to commit this sick horror and for many stupid reasons including my forced awakening. I can never forgive him.”

 

Princess Serenity says, with a nod, “I understand and to be honest, I can’t forgive him either. I’m not sure if I ever will. I’ve seen so much pain, suffering, and death in which it is hard to get a grip on it.”

 

Princess Selene tells Princess Serenity, “Yeah, but you have big brother and me, Serenity. We’re here for long along with everyone else.” Princess Serenity nods her head and she smiles warmly at her sister, but then the two of them look up towards the Earth with concerned looks on their faces.

 

Princess Serenity says, “But he was right about one thing: SAO was just the beginning. War is on the horizon.”

 

Princess Selene responds, with a nod, “I know, sis. However, we’ll face it together.” Princess Serenity nods her head in agreement with her sister and Princess Selene says, with a smile, “Anyway, let’s not worry on that and rejoin the others. I know that it may be too soon, but maybe you would like to join me in ALO sometime.”

 

Princess Serenity asks, “The VRMMO that you are playing?”

 

Princess Selene says, with a smile, “Yep! Remember, much of it is based on SAO without the danger. RCT Progress has managed to redesign the game after removing the false ‘Grand Quest’ that jerk was using as a cover of his original plan to trap SAO players in ALO to use for his sick experiments and they will have a brand new one in the summer! However, they managed to add some of the better elements of SAO including Sword Skills!”

 

Princess Serenity asks, amazed, “Really?”

 

Princess Selene says, with a smile, “That’s right, sis! However, you don’t have to worry about any of the ‘bad stuff’ getting onto ALO with Ami, Trista, and Izzy along with others of the ‘SAO Victims Task Force’ making sure of that.”

 

Princess Serenity says, with a smile, “That’s good to know.”

 

Princess Selene says, “And you don’t have to start from scratch too. Since ALO is based on SAO, SAO survivors can download a lot of their avatar data from SAO into ALO.”

 

Princess Serenity says, amazed, “Oh, wow!” Princess Serenity asks, curiously, “Does that mean…?”

 

Princess Selene says, with a grin, “A lot of the skills that I gained in SAO are a part of ‘ALO’s Leafa’ as the girls and Endymon can attest, but there is something new. Let’s just say that you and big brother aren’t the only ‘Duel Welders’ in a virtual world anymore.”

 

Princess Serenity says, shocked, “No way!”

 

Princess Selene says, with a cheeky grin, “Yes way, sis! However, I prefer to use kendo style attacks and skills since I love kendo, but it doesn’t mean that I won’t use my ‘ace-in-hole’.” Princess Selene says, with a smile, “Anyway, I know that I might be rushing you, sis…”

 

Princess Serenity responds, shaking her head, “No, I can’t let what happened rule my life, Selene. In my mind, I would dishonor the memory of those that suffered if I let what happened rule over me. And personally, I think that going to ALO would be good for me. I know that it will help bring me peace and it would be nice to enjoy ‘another world’ for once.”

 

Princess Selene says, with a giggle, “I’ll bet Serenity.”

 

Rika shouts out, with an excited tone, “Hey, what are you two talking about over there?” Princess Selene and Princess Serenity look over to see a lot of the others looking at them with smiles on their faces in which the two Moon Princesses walk off to meet their friends/family/allies and enjoy the party while leaving the future out of their mind for the time being to just enjoy time together.

 

Unknown world, unknown time

 

Within a deep forest made up of trees as large as skyscrapers, we are on a hill overlooking a large Japanese style village protected by massive wooden walls with a massive wooden gate in which there is a mountain in the rear of the village with five faces craved into the mountain with the last one being a woman’s face in which she has a strange rhombus on her forehead. On top of the hill overlooking this village, there is a cloaked figure watching the village.

 

The figure says, in a male voice, “And so it begins…” As the figure looks at the village, we can see the figure’s lips curl into a sly smile as we see an image of two large forces in a mysterious land with one of those forces being led by our two Moon Princesses, our Digidestined of Courage, Friendship, and Miracles, and many others as they prepare to go into battle with Aincrad floating over them all.

Preview for Sailor Moon Online Shippuden: Worlds’ Song:

 

(Start Scene)

 

As Suguha, who is on one knee, stares at Sayer, figuring out at what to do, a strange mist flows into the room and confusing everyone.

 

Rika asks, “What’s going on?”

 

Just then a familiar male voice calls out, “Are you going to run away? Give into a mere game?”

 

There are multiple gasps and Sailor Mars shouts out, “I know that voice anywhere!” They hear footsteps and everyone looks to see out of the mist, Akihiko Kayaba, in his SAO avatar of Heathcliff, looking at them.

 

There are gasps and Kazuto says, stunned, “No way!”

Asuna asks, shocked, “Commander…Kayaba?”

 

Sayer asks, hearing Asuna’s words, “Wait! Kayaba? Akihiko Kayaba?”

 

Suguha says, with a glare, “You!”

 

Heathcliff tells Suguha, “I ask you, again, Selene: Are you running away?”

 

Suguha shouts out, with a glare, “What was that?”

 

Heathcliff responds, “You know what I am talking about, Selene. Despite his power, this is only a game and you are losing a mere game. You soil the memory of our battle at the Ruby Palace with this.”

 

Suguha glares at Heathcliff and she yells out, annoyed tone in her voice, “Stay out of this and stay in the grave, Kayaba!”

 

Heathcliff retorts, “Then prove me wrong, Selene. Serenity and Kirito showed me that human willpower could surpass any computer system, but you showed me the truth depths of the power of human will and heart! Power that can do anything and have endless possibilities! Now, get up, Selene! Get up, Celestial!”

 

Suguha says, strongly, “You want to see ‘that power’ again? Fine! I will show you that I have far surpassed you!” As Suguha’s deck in her duel disk glows, she puts her hand on the top of her deck and she yells out, “I draw!” But then the crystal around her neck glow with a bright light and everyone gasps as Suguha’s duel disk changes completely in which while it has the top and body of a Neo Domino City Duel Disk, there is a display screen on top with a slot below the screen with pop up slot for the Extra Deck within the Duel Disk in which the monster slots has become a ‘blade’ made of energy with extra monster card like slot on each side of the ‘blade’ for a total of seven slots on the duel disk in which five of them are registered as monster card zones. Suguha then sees some of the cards in her hands take on new forms and new information comes to her mind. Suguha then displays two monster cards, Stargazer Magician (1200/2400) and Timegazer Magician (1200/600), both of whom have card ‘borders’ having orange coloring in the top half like an effect monster while the bottom half is green like a spell card, in which she says, “I set scale one, Stargazer Magician, and scale eight Timegazer Magician, in the Pendulum Zones and set the Pendulum Scale!” Suguha puts the cards in the two zones that are on the edges of the ‘blade’ of her new duel disk causing the word ‘Pendulum’ in rainbow colored letters to appear in the monster card zones for a second in which the two said monsters appear in columns of light with one column of light on either side of Suguha with the number 1 appear below Stargazer while the number 8 appears below Timegazer.

 

Sayer shouts out, “What kind of trick is this?”

 

Sailor Venus asks, “Wait! Pendulum Zones? Pendulum Scale?”

 

Sailor Mercury responds, “I have no idea.”

 

As a crystal pendulum appears on Suguha’s field and swinging between the two columns of light, Suguha shouts out, “Now, I can summon monsters that are level two through seven once per turn! Now, swing Soul Pendulum!” Suguha puts three cards on her duel disk and she yells out, “Pendulum Summon! Time to rock my friends: Tuner monster, Rose, Warrior of Revenge, Rose Archer, and the mighty dragon of dimensions with the duel colored eyes: Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon!” A circle of light appears in the sky, three beams of light come out, and out of those lights, Rose, Warrior of Revenge (1600/600), Rose Archer (1000/100), and Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon (2500/2000), which looks like Odd-Eyes Dragon, but it looks like a bigger and stronger version with the protrusions coming out of the back are bigger with two green orbs, one large and one small, on the right one and a red orb attached to the left one with dragon-like horns on its head, appears on the field in attack mode. Soon after, Suguha’s Sailor Scout broach glows and it glows in unison with Odd-Eyes Pendulum Dragon and the crystal pendulum around her neck causing her to transform into Valkyrie Sailor Celestial with her new duel disk attached to her left gantlet.

 

From their prison, Leo shouts out, “It’s her: The one that beat Kayaba!”

 

Luna says, amazed, “Sailor Celestial!”

 

The former Signers gasp in shock and Jack asks, “She is the one that beat Kayaba?”

 

Sailor Moon asks, “What’s going on?”

 

Sailor Pluto says, stunned, “That dragon isn’t normal. Sailor Celestial has just awoken a great power!”

 

Sailor Uranus says, “And that dragon is the source of that power.”

 

Tuxedo Mask thinks in his mind, “But what has Sailor Celestial unleashed?”

Suguha tells Naruto, “Hey, watch you are going!”

 

Naruto responds, nervously, “I’m sorry!”

 

Suguha asks, looking at Naruto, Sakura, and Hinata, “Are you some kind of cosplayers?”

 

Naruto yells out, annoyed, “Hey, who are…?!”

 

However, Sakura covers Naruto’s mouth and she responds, with a smile, “That’s right! We are big fans of the anime and manga!” Sakura whispers to Naruto, “Naruto, we are in a world where our world is a famous manga, remember?”

 

Naruto gives a slight nod and Suguha says, with a plain tone, “Not surprising. Naruto is one of the most popular animes and manga of all time or at least in my opinion.” Suguha says, looking at Sakura, “Wow, you really must dye your hair. It looks so much Sakura Haruno’s hair and it looks so natural.”

 

Sakura replies, nervously, “Yeah, good, huh?”

 

Just then a voice shouts out, “There they are!” Everyone then looks to see a group of armored cloaked warriors appear in front of them.

 

Naruto says, annoyed, “Oh, great!”

 

Sakura asks, annoyed, “Don’t they give up?”

 

One of the armored cloaked warriors responds, “Give it up, Uzumaki!”

 

Suguha thinks in her mind, looking at Naruto, “Uzumaki?!”

 < /p> Naruto responds, with a grin, “If you read the books based on my life, then you should know that I never do that, believe it!”

 

The leader of the armored warriors responds, with a grin, “Actually, we knew that you would say that and we’re glad that you did!”

 

Sakura thinks in her mind, nervously, “Why do I get a bad feeling about that?”

 

As Naruto, Sakura, and Hinata get into defensive stances, Suguha thinks in her mind, “No way! That’s impossible! But from what I’m feeling…Okay, I don’t get what’s going on, but something tells me that they are going to need some major help and Sailor Celestial has to get up to bat!”

Kirito, in his new ALO Spriggan avatar, says, looking at floating land masses, says, “There it is: Svart Alfheim.”

 

Usagi, in her new ALO Undine avatar, says, with a giggle, “I know. It is so amazing.”

 

Leafa says, “We should get going, you two. The others could be waiting for us.”

 

Leafa spreads out her green fairy wings, takes flight, and Usagi says, with a smile, “Wait for me, Leafa!”

 

Kirito says, with a nod, “Let’s go, Usagi!” Kirito spreads out his Spriggan style fairy wings while Usagi spreads out her Undine style fairy wings and the three of them take off for the new landmasses by the World Tree, the center of the virtual world of Alfheim Online also known as ALO.
