Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Act 18:
侵略 SAILORVENUS
Invasion - Sailor Venus

p. 52


Sailor Moon:
Jupiter!!
Artemis:
This can't be!
Jupiter!!

p. 53


Artemis:
They're gone! Again!? Dammit!
 
The Black Moon saucers appear and suddenly disappear.
There's no way to follow them! Where are they coming from!?
Luna:
Sailor Moon!! Venus!
Sailor Moon:
Jupiter!!
Tuxedo Mask:
Luna! Look!

p. 54


Luna:
That's...
Petz:
I'll show you the power of a tornado produced by this Evil Black Crystal earring!
Luna:
The earring worn by the woman who fought Jupiter, Petz of
the Black Moon!?
Tuxedo Mask:
We'd better not get close to it, Luna. It looks strange.
Artemis:
Luna! Get a sample from that earring!
Luna:
Got it, Artemis!
Send me a specialized, ultra-reinforced Petri dish!
Artemis:
Okay!
Sailor Venus:
Tuxedo Mask, Luna!

p. 55


Sailor Venus:
I'm sorry... I was here, yet
even Jupiter...! This is so...!

Artemis:
This month, there have been more than 200 cases of UFO sightings reported, just within Tokyo's 23 wards.
We've monitored all of them here, but
we haven't been able to confirm the origin point of a single one, unfortunately.
 
The one thing we do know
is that the saucers that took Mars, Mercury, and Jupiter
were all the same.

p. 56


Artemis:
Also, we've all but confirmed that the city's
similarly timed crop circles are landing tracks for those saucers.
 
There's no question.
The Black Moon has used saucers to come to Tokyo countless times.
Rei:
I think they've already gotten in...

Sailor Mercury:
It's the enemy in disguise!
Minako:
If they come here in saucers,
does that mean the Black Moon are aliens?
Artemis:
Not necessarily.
But the possibility is high.

p. 57


Minako:
If that were the case, would it mean they're targeting Earth? And so they plan to kill us, since we get in their way!?
I won't let that happen!
Usagi:
They plan to kill us, since we get in their way...
Mamoru:
They're alive.
Mars, Mercury,
and Jupiter! I'm sure of it!
 
If their goal was to get rid of us, they would have done it right then and there.
Usagi:
Then why do they go about it like this?
Are they after our Mythical Silver Crystal and Chibi Usa?
Why don't they aim straighter? I don't get it!

p. 58


Minako:
It's so frustrating! It's like they're toying with us...!
And it feels like they're so carefree about it...
 
I can't take it anymore!
 
It's a waste of time to keep letting Chibi Usa wander around on her own.
 
Let's make Chibi Usa talk, by whatever means necessary.
Get her to talk about the Black Moon! And it will also become clear whether Chibi Usa is a friend or foe.
Luna:
Look, Artemis.
The Evil Black Crystal earring sample we collected.
 
Its energy reading is getting more and more negative...

p. 59


Luna:
It hit the minimum.
 
...What does this mean?
What exactly is this earring...?
Tsukino
Minako:
Usagi, are you alright?
Usagi:
...Yeah, I'm okay now.
Chibi Usa:
Welcome home!

p. 60


Ikuko:
Oh, Mina-chan, Mamoru-kun.
Sorry. It's a little noisy because Chibi Usa-chan brought a friend home from class.
Chibi Usa:
Oh yeah, Usagi!
This is Momo-chan!
Usagi:
("U-Usagi!?" How can you address me like that!)
Chibi Usa:
You know, that delicious Chinese restaurant in the shopping district is Momo-chan's family's!
Mamoru:
Now that she's going to elementary school, she looks so friendly.
Luna:
The way she looked when she greeted us...
...I can't call her an enemy.
Mamoru:
Luna.
You should let me hold onto that earring sample.
Luna:
Right, Mamo-chan. See you tomorrow in the control room...

p. 61


Chibi Usa:
Oh!
Momoko:
Chibi Usa-chan?
Chibi Usa:
Noooooo!
Usagi:
Chibi Usa!?
Chibi Usa:
Aaaaaah!
Minako:
What? What's wrong!?
Ikuko:
Chibi Usa-chan!?
Mamoru:
This earring!?

p. 62


Chibi Usa:
Nooooo... Stay away from me...!
Mamoru:
She's scared of this Evil Black Crystal earring!?
Chibi Usa:
Aaaah!
Usagi:
Chibi Usa!?
Saphir:
We should deal with the Sailor Soldiers right away.

p. 63


Saphir:
Rubeus is still Rubeus.
I can't believe you're not the least bit angry that we've lost valuable subordinates.
Rubeus:
I have merely been obeying the prince's wishes.
Esmeraude:
You've all lost your minds.
Saphir:
Esmeraude!
Esmeraude:
Oh, how scary!
Rubeus:
Saphir.
It seems you're irritated about these unexpected events.
But with plans, accidents are bound to happen. Sometimes they even cause big deviations.
However, we have this dark planet and the Evil Black Crystal.
There's nothing for us to fear. So why don't we have some fun?

p. 64


Rubeus:
The Evil Black Crystal is produced by our dark planet,
Nemesis, and has malevolent power...!
As long as we have it, we can have anything we want!!
Saphir:
...Indeed. We have the Evil Black Crystal.
We don't need to endanger ourselves to get the Mythical Silver Crystal.
 
You fully learned the fearsome strength
of the Evil Black Crystal when you dealt damage to that planet.
 
Prince Demand. That dead planet is already yours.

p. 65


Saphir:
We don't need to waste anymore time or energy on that planet.
Prince Demand:
Not yet.
 
We're making our power and grand ambitions known to all.
I still haven't seen the dead body of that planet's ruler.
We'll take that planet with absolute certainty.
 
Wiseman.
Wiseman:
As long as the Mythical Silver Crystal exists, our Evil Black Crystal is not invincible.
 
That disgusting stone. Our enemy, the Mythical Silver Crystal.
 
The Rabbit has the Mythical Silver Crystal. Right now is our best chance.

p. 66


Wiseman:
The time to destroy that fake stone, the Mythical Silver Crystal, is near!
 
Make our Black Moon power known.
 
Get the Mythical Silver Crystal! That detestable stone!
And smash it with the Evil Black Crystal!
Prince Demand:
I'm going back to my room.
Rubeus:
Wiseman, huh.
That shady, fortune-telling old coot.
 
He appeared before us out of nowhere.
With his clever way of words and cheap fortune-telling tricks,
he's completely paralyzed the prince.
Esmeraude:
The prince was granted
his unbeatable Evil Eye ability by Wiseman.
It's only natural that he'd be paralyzed, isn't it? (giggle)

p. 67


Rubeus:
When you think about it, he's the one who gave the prince the strange ideas about the Mythical Silver Crystal.
One day I'll rip off that facade and find out who he really is.
Calaveras:
...My sisters.
How frustrating...!
I'll make sure to avenge you...!
Rubeus:
Are you practicing mediumship?
 
I think you're doing something bad.
Calaveras:
Rubeus-sama!
Rubeus:
But the five scattered soldiers mean nothing now.
I can't wait to see that Sailor Moon torn to shreds.

p. 68


Rubeus:
Let's hurry and make them realize that planet belongs to the Black Moon.
Calaveras:
I, the medium Calaveras
of the Four Weird Sisters, will handle this if you please, Rubeus-sama.
 
Code: 004.
Operation "Re-birth."
I will borrow the power of my older sister and younger sisters.
Using methods highly effective in modern humanity,
I will send in messages from our Black Moon.
I will make them offer their entire beings to our Black Moon.
Tsukino

p. 69


Mamoru:
Chibi Usa.
Minako:
Please talk?
What's wrong!?
 
Are you scared of this Evil Black Crystal earring!?
Is there some secret to it!?
Chibi Usa:
Because of that stone...
Mama...
Minako:
Because of this stone?
What about Mama? What happened?
Usagi:
Anything about the Black Moon will do! You know something, don't you!?
Tell us, Chibi Usa!

p. 70


Chibi Usa:
I don't know!
I haven't done anything wrong!
 
I'm scared... (...ugh)
Mamoru:
That's enough. Let's stop.
Usagi:
Mamo-chan?
 
...Chibi Usa, one last question.
 
Can you swear you're not an enemy?
Chibi Usa:
I'm not!
I'm not an enemy or anything like...!

p. 71


Usagi:
But if you won't cooperate,
 
then you and I
really can't get along.
Kids:
(Whoa!)
(Hahaha)
Girl:
Hey, about the black...
 
list. You said you're on it for repeated tardiness?
Girl:
(Awww. It really sucks.)

p. 72


Usagi:
...That's bad. I've gotten so sensitive to the word "black."
Black Moon...
 
...Mako-chan, Ami-chan, and Rei-chan were always here, but now they're gone...
...My heart feels broken...
Naru:
Usagi!
Hey, it's the afternoon. Let's go watch a videotape and eat something in the AV room.
We got something interesting.
Umino:
Well, it was hard to get, because it was sold or rented out everywhere.
Naru:
Thanks, Umino.
Usagi:
What videotape is it?
Umino:
It is a video about channeling.

p. 73


Usagi:
Channeling?
Naru:
It's a huge craze throughout the world right now. (You didn't know? Oh, Usagi.)
Umino:
Channeling, you see.
It is when "someone" from another dimension or space sends a message through a channeler.
The "someone" is a person from the past.
Mediumship is a type of channeling.
 
Or it's a message from outer space.
Usagi:
What? I have a bad feeling...
Announcer:
It seems the world-famous channeler, Miss Calaveras, has entered
a trance state. Then we shall begin the interview.
Interviewer:
Who are you?

p. 74


Calaveras:
"I am Rubeus of the Black Moon."
 
"I've come from very far away. I am very close to you."
 
"We're not enemies or invaders."
"We have come to guide you Earthlings down a righteous path."
Usagi:
Black Moon!!
 
What is this...!! These are lies!!
They're enemies!!
What does this mean!?
Umino:
Usagi-san!?
It is alright.

p. 75


(Umino, that's too complicated.)

Umino:
The message sender, or channeling source, cannot hold a flesh body or corporeal form.
So enemies or attacks aren't really...
(They've transcended to a much higher plane.)
 
Oh, Usagi-san!
Naru:
As soon as she heard "Black Moon," she turned pale.
 
...I actually noticed a long time ago that Usagi has "something" I'm not a part of.
She has a world that I can't enter...
 
But I wanna help her.
Usagi...

Channeling Session
Calaveras:
Earth and humanity are currently sick and seeking salvation.
But that doesn't necessarily mean Earth needs any extra corrections.
 
Yes. Medicines and hospitals will do no good.
 
Things like infinite power, eternal youth, and immortality are impossible.
You can only trust your own strength.
 
From now on, you must not accept anyone's control.
Earth belongs to Earthlings!
Interviewer:
Miss Calaveras.
Are you saying it's possible Earth will
have an alien invasion in the near future?
Calaveras:
Yes.
The Black Moon beings I've been channeling have said so.

p. 77


Calaveras:
They say the beings from the ivory moon will bring about disaster.
I can see it too.
An unpleasant future Earth, smothered by the ivory moon.
Artemis:
Is she... trying to brainwash people?
Ivory moon...
Or is she speaking the truth...
Minako:
The truth!?
How could they know the future!?
Aren't they the ones who are gonna come from outer space to invade Earth!?
Interviewer:
Is it a public channeling session?
Calaveras:
Yes, this weekend in the city.
 
I want lots of people to know
the truth.

p. 78


Artemis:
It might be a trap.
Minako:
They've declared war on us!
I think we should accept!
Kotono:
Black Moon... Hino-san...!
Asanuma:
Black Moon...
Television:
That was Miss Calaveras!
Asanuma:
...I haven't seen any trace of Makoto-san since then...
Makoto:
We have a destiny to fight enemies.
Asanuma:
Makoto-san!

p. 79


Kunzite:
Master.
Mamoru:
Kunzite.
Jadeite. Nephrite.
Zoisite.
Kunzite:
I have had a bad premonition.

p. 80


Kunzite:
This enemy is setting up something much bigger than we can imagine.
And we're trying to get a hold of it.
 
I sense a distortion of time and space coming from this stone.
Mamoru:
Does that mean they crossed space-time to come here?
Kunzite:
I do not know.
But it reeks of danger.
 
Master, we will support your power.
With your power, protect
the Princess.
Mamoru:
...My power, you say.
...I have no power.
 
...I think about it sometimes.
What was I reborn for?

p. 81


Mamoru:
She has the four soldiers to protect her well.
But now that they're short-handed,
I have to protect her. Yet
 
I can't protect her because I'm powerless.
I'm useless to her.
Kunzite:
Master.
Believe in
your own power.
 
The fact is that you were reincarnated.
 
And the path has started
for the princess to become queen, and for you to become king.
Don't forget these things.
 
You must become stronger and greater. The princess will always need you.

p. 82

Usagi:
...Hm? Who's there?

p. 83


Usagi:
My transformation brooch is gone!?
Public Channeling Session
Calaveras:
Earth is now entering the Age of Aquarius, the Water Bearer.
As indicated by Aquarius, it's the beginning of a cosmic millennium.
It shall be an age of reformation.

p. 84


Minako:
Usagi!? What're you doing!?
Usagi:
V-chan!?
Usagi:
My brooch was taken...!
Minako:
What did you say!?
Usagi:
It had to be Chibi Usa!
I'm going after her to take it back!!
Calaveras:
We want to reform Earth to go down the proper path.
 
The ivory moon beings cannot be trusted.
 
The bearers of the ivory moon mark will bring about disaster. By using the Mythical Silver Crystal!

p. 85


Calaveras:
Don't accept the ivory moon!
Smash the Mythical Silver Crystal!
 
Put Earth's future in the hands of the Black Moon!
Sailor Venus:
This is a hoax!!
Don't be fooled! Open your eyes!!
Calaveras:
I was just thinking
that next I'd show you some interesting channeling, Sailor Venus.

p. 86


Sailor Venus:
Naru-chan!?
Asanuma-kun, Club Head Kotono!?
Spirits:
Venus...
 
Aaaah!
Sailor Venus:
Mars!? Jupiter!? Mercury!

Calaveras:

Sailor Venus:
My body!!
It's being torn apart!!
 
We're still in the Piscean love age!! ...kugh
As if Venus, the goddess of love, would lose!!

p. 88


Calaveras:
(Hehe.) Right now, Rubeus-sama is about to get rid of the Rabbit and Sailor Moon!
Sailor Venus:
Is this it!?
Usagi!!
Usagi:
V-chan!!
I have to hurry!!
Ichinohashi Park
Usagi:
There she is! Chibi Usa!!
Chibi Usa!!
 
So you really did take it.
Give me back that brooch!
 
Come on, hurry!
Luna P:
(Peee)

p. 89


Rubeus:
Oh, how nimble.
Just what I'd expect from Sailor Moon and the Rabbit.
 
But you won't get away again. What a pity.
Usagi:
Mamo-chan!!

p. 90


Rubeus:
So you've
injured me.
 
You'll realize
the power of Crimson Rubeus's true flames!
Usagi:
Oh no!!
Tuxedo Mask:
We'll be killed!!

p. 91


Voice:
"Use your power."
 
"Only you can protect them!"
 
Concentrate. With your hands!
Aim towards him!
With all of your power!
And then shout!!
Tuxedo Mask:
Who is this!? It's an old, familiar voice I've heard somewhere before!
 
Power is...!
From my hands...!!
 
Tuxedo La Smoking!!
Bomber!

p. 92


Rubeus:
Dammit, he fought back my flames...!
Tuxedo Mask:
That power...!
Who the hell was that voice...!?
Usagi:
Chibi Usa!!
 
Moon Crystal Power Make-Up!!

p. 93


Sailor Moon:
Venus!!
 
Moon Princess
 
Halation!
Calaveras:
Aaaaah!
Sailor Venus:
Sailor Moon!
Sailor Moon:
Venus!!
 
Thank goodness, Venus...!
Sailor Venus:
What about Chibi Usa!?

p. 94


Sailor Moon:
Chibi Usa. What were you planning
to do by taking my brooch, the Mythical Silver Crystal?
Where would you have run?
Chibi Usa:
I knew... That no matter how many Mythical Silver Crystals
I got, I couldn't use them...
 
That the past Mythical Silver Crystal could only be used in the past.
 
That having the past Mythical Silver Crystal and the future Mythical Silver Crystal together was very dangerous. I was taught all that.
 
But even though it was dangerous, I thought if I had both of them, then
maybe with that power I could maybe help... so I came here.

p. 95


Sailor Moon:
The past Mythical Silver Crystal and
the future Mythical Silver Crystal!?
Chibi Usa, what are you saying...!?
Chibi Usa:
Help me, Sailor Moon...!!
 
...Help save... the 30th Century
future Earth...!

p. 96
