Rini and Hotaru were walking down the streets of just outside the city of Tokyo, talking about many things that they and the rest of the sailor scouts have gone through, including their most recent victory over Neherenia. Hotaru was feeling much stronger nowadays, but was still being advised by her father to take it easy when walking around the outside world.
"So, Hotaru, where do you want to do today?" Rini asked.
"Well... perhaps we could go to the park and go birdwatching." Hotaru said.
"That sounds like a great idea!" Rini said as the two held hands and continued walking. But just then, a black hole appeared in front of the two and was steadily growing larger!
"Rini... what's that?" Hotaru asked.
"I don't know. It looks like a black hole, but Puu told me those only show up when there's a break in the time-space barrier... or something like that." Rini said.
"Or maybe it could be one of Neherenia's monsters?" Hotaru asked.
"It can't be! She's no longer around!" Rini shouted.
"I say we transform just in case." Hotaru said. Rini nodded.
"Hey, that's a good idea, Hotaru. Moon Prism Power!" Rini said.
"Saturn Planet Power!" Hotaru shouted.
"MAKE UP!" They both shouted. Soon, both girls were transformed into their sailor soldier outfits. Rini as Sailor Chibi-Moon and Hotaru as Sailor Saturn. Hotaru held her glaive with her two hands as she stepped in front of Rini to protect her.

But it wouldn't matter as the black hole continued to increase in size and suck everything in. The two girls held onto a nearby lamppost to hold on for dear life.
"Rini, whatever happens, don't let go!" Hotaru shouted.
"Believe me, that's what I plan to doooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!...." Rini screamed as she lost her grip from the lamppost, as did Hotaru as the two sailor scouts both went flying through the black hole.

Several minutes later, Rini was the first to break out of unconsciousness. She slowly sat up as she regained her vision and sense of where she was. Luckily she was still transformed, as was Hotaru, who was still unconscious and lying down next to Rini. That's when Rini's heart was beating a little faster. She knew more than anyone that Hotaru's body couldn't take much punishment. Rini shook Hotaru's body in an effort to wake her up.
"Hotaru! Hotaru!! Are you alright?" Rini asked. Hotaru stirred around before finally opening her eyes and looking up at her friend.
"Rini... thank goodness you're alright." Hotaru said.
"Same here, you know your body can only take so many hits." Rini said. Hotaru slowly got back up on her feet, brushing her outfit clear of dust.
"It's okay, Rini. I'll know whether or not I will be in danger." Hotaru said.
"I wonder where we are... it looks like we're still in Tokyo." Rini said, pointing out to the city in the background.
"Hmmm... it looks a lot smaller than I remember it, though." Hotaru said.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Rini said.
"Either that black hole has done something to the city or..." Hotaru then looked down as she was reaching to pick up her glaive. Something clearly was not right. Trees, park benches, lampposts, the lake... they all looked significantly smaller. Hotaru was towering well over these objects.
"Or what?" Rini asked.
"Or it did something to us. Like make us bigger..." Hotaru said, quickly figuring it out. Rini looked down with her friend to indeed see they had somehow become giantesses. Hotaru estimated herself to be 300 feet tall, with Rini only about 210 feet tall (in keeping Hotaru taller than Rini like in their normal height). Still, both girls were very big. Suddenly the sight of a smaller Tokyo was not so strange to Rini anymore.

"Are you saying we grew somehow?" Rini asked.
"We must have. That was certainly a strange black hole if this is all we went through." Hotaru said. Rini continued to look around, noticing how small everything was compared to her new height. Just then, out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a most interesting sight.
"Hey, Hotaru, look over there!" Rini said pointing out towards the city. There she noticed two other gigantic things deep within the city, and they looked like they were having quite a battle. First there was a lizard-like monster that was just as big as the two girls probably were. The other thing they saw appeared to be a giant robot made of multiple colors and objects. Both of the robot's feet had green dragons on the bottom, while the arms were made of what appeared to be a blue unicorn and a yellow oryx. The robot was currently using the oryx's horns to punch out this reptilian creature. The torso had a bird with wings for ears, and finally the head looked like a ordinary robotic one except for the red Phoenix bird as headwear.
"Whoa... what are those things?" Hotaru asked.
"I don't know. I thought we'd be the only ones this big." Rini said. Just then, she could just hear the monster shouting how victory was inevitable for the Negaverse.
"The Negaverse? It can't be!" Rini shouted.
"Didn't Serena tell us the Negaverse has long been destroyed?" Hotaru asked.
"She sure did. How can they exist now?" Rini asked.
"Somehow I'm getting a weird feeling that black hole may have had something to do with it." Hotaru said.
"Well, never mind that! We need to help that robot defeat the monster!" Rini shouted as she started running towards where the battle was. She hadn't bothered to look down as see what she was crushing in her path.
"Hey! Wait for me, Rini! I'll help out too!" Hotaru shouted as she picked up her glaive and ran off after Rini.

In the city of Tokyo, at least in this alternate reality as Rini and Hotaru would later find out, the giant robot continued to square off against the giant lizard monster. The robot wasn't having a whole lot of luck as slight amounts of spark and smoke emitted from the robot's exterior.
"Hahahaha!!! Your end is near, sailor scouts! The Negaverse will triumph over good and I will be rewarded handsomely!" the lizard shouted. Indeed, piloting the robot was none other than the sailor scouts themselves. Serena sat in the center, with Lita and Mina sitting behind her and Amy and Raye sitting to her sides. All girls were wearing the same sailor scout outfits that we've become accustomed to seeing.
"Geez! We're getting rocked, Serena!" Lita shouted.
"Amy, what's the status of the Sailor Planet Megazord?" Serena asked.
"Damage is at 60%... and auto-repair systems aren't working to full functionality. One more strike and we'll be down for sure!" Amy said.
"Alright, come on, girls! We gotta hang in! We can't let the Negaverse win!" Serena shouted. As one can see, this world's Serena was significantly more brave than the Serena we're used to seeing.

The lizard was getting ready to make another blast.
"Hahahaha!!! Say goodbye, sailor scouts, as I finish you with one shot!" the lizard shouted. It then shot big laser bolts out of its claws. The sailor scouts braced their Megazord for one major hit that could down the machine.
"Silence Wall!!!" Just then, upon that familiar voice, a barrier formed right in front of the Megazord that blocked the lasers from hitting the machine. The bolts instead bounced back and struck the lizard.
"Ow! Hey!!! What just happened? How did they deflect my lasers!?" the lizard shouted. After that, to everyone's surprise, Sailor Saturn and Sailor Chibi-Moon ran in front of the megazord.
"Huh? Who are those girls?" Raye asked.
"They look just like us sailor scouts!" Mina shouted. Serena and the other remained speechless as they watched the events unfold.
"To attack such a thing of love and honor is beyond comprehension, and it's something that neither I or my friend will take!" Rini shouted.
"Protected by Saturn, the Planet of Silence, I am the soldier of destruction and rebirth... I am Sailor Saturn!" Hotaru said, swinging its glaive around like a real sailor soldier would.
"And I am the soldier of love and justice... Sailor Chibi-Moon! And in the name of the moon..." Rini shouted.
"We will punish you!" Both girls said at once.
"Huh? Sailor Saturn? Sailor Chibi-Moon? I didn't know there were more of those blasted sailor scouts! How come the queen didn't tell me about this?" the lizard said. The sailor scouts inside the Megazord were just as confused.
"Any of you seen these girls before?" Serena asked.
"Don't look at us, they look new to me." Mina said.
"One of them bears an astonishing resemblence to you, Serena." Amy said, pointing to Chibi-Moon and her hair.
"You're right... we'll have to talk to Endymion after this." Serena said as they all went back to watching.

"Your madness ends here, lizard face!" Hotaru shouted. She was kinda surprised herself to be saying things like that when she was normally so gentle. She just shrugged it off and looked straight in the lizard monster's eyes.
"Bleh! I'll see to it that doesn't happen!" the lizard shouted. He then fired laser bolts from its claws, but Rini and Hotaru were able to jump away being more agile than the Megazord. Rini had summoned her Moon Rod in the midst of this manuever.
"Pink Sugar Heart Attack!" Rini said. A swarm of hearts came out from the rod and circles the monster, only slightly harming him. Rini just smiled through all this.
"Ha! Not even a scratch, kid! You're pretty powerless for a sailor scout!" the lizard said. While he lost his concentration, Hotaru took a swing at the monster with her glaive, damaging it severly as it cried out in pain.
"Maybe she is, but I'm not. Silence Glaive Surprise!" Hotaru shouted. She then swung her glaive around as pink ribbons emerged from its sharp end. They surrounded the lizard one by one before leaving its body. The lizard started to spark violently as it slowly fell to the ground.
"No! I may have been beaten, but the Negaverse will prevail!" the lizard shouted before it landed on the ground and exploded, leaving a bed of flames where the creature had been standing.

Hotaru then kneeled down, breathing heavily from wielding the glaive like she did earlier. Rini ran to her side to make sure she was okay.
"Hotaru! Are you alright?" Rini asked.
"Yes... don't worry about me. I was just drained through that battle." Hotaru said.
"Well, try to take it easy next time, alright?" Rini asked. Hotaru just smiled.
"Sure, my friend." Hotaru said. She then got up and stood eye-to-eye with the Sailor Planet Megazord they had just helped defend.
"Uh... thank you, young girl. You are very strong to defeat that monster all by yourself." Serena said, speaking into a microphone that allowed her voice to be heard. Hotaru looked with surprise to see the sailor scouts inside the machine!
"Hey, Rini... you gotta see this! Our fellow sailor scouts are piloting this huge machine." Hotaru said. Rini stood by Hotaru's side and looked inside the cockpit to see she was right.
"Serena? Is that you?" Rini asked. The other four sailor scouts looked at Serena.
"Uh... yes, but do we know each other?" Serena asked.
"Huh? What do you mean? You've always been at my side protecting me in both the past and the future!" Rini said. Hotaru rested her hands on Rini's shoulders.
"I think I get it... this must be some kind of alternate reality. We would never see monsters that big or the sailor scouts running such big machinery in our world." Hotaru said.
"I would believe that to be affirmative, um... what is your name?" Amy asked.
"Please call me Hotaru, and this is my friend, Rini. I am Sailor Saturn and she is Sailor Chibi-Moon." Hotaru said.
"Chibi-Moon? That's so kawaii!" Raye said as she smiled. Just then, the communicator on Sailor Moon's wrist started beeping. Serena pressed a button and spoke into the communicator.
"Go ahead, Endymion, this is Sailor Moon speaking." Serena said. Yes, Endymion. We better know him, of course, as Darien.
"Sailor scouts, I have detected a change in the energy output in the city. Have you defeated the lizard monster?" Endymion asked.
"Yes, although we didn't do it alone, Endymion. We had two giant sailor scouts come in and save us before the lizard could seriously damage the Sailor Planet Megazord." Serena said.
"Hmmm... interesting. Two other sailor scouts. Have you seen them before?" Endymion said.
"We were kinda hoping you'd know. One of them almost has my hairstyle in a pink color, while the other is dressed in violet and holding a large glaive as a weapon. They're both younger than all of us, that's for sure." Serena said.
"Well, I'll take a look over them. I'll have Fiore teleport the girls to the Command Center. You girls should be heading back as well." Endymion said.
"We're on our way." Serena said. With that, Serena and the other girls pressed some buttons and were soon teleported out of the Megazord and on their way back to the Command Center. Rini and Hotaru were teleported away as well.

Meanwhile, on the Moon at the Negaverse Palace, Queen Beryl was pounding her fists on the sides of her throne. She was upset that she had failed once again. Alan and Ann, the twins who were raised from the Doom Tree, were blaming each other as usual. Rubeus held his head down in shame knowing that he would get yelled at again by the evil queen.
"Curses!!! Those blasted sailor scouts! I have such a headache!" Queen Beryl said.
"This is all your fault, you knucklehead!" Ann shouted, bonking her brother Alan on the head.
"My fault! Awwww... come on, what did I do?" Alan said.
"Shut up, you two! Rubeus, your creations have failed you once again!" Queen Beryl shouted.
"My sincere apologies, my queen! I promise I'll create a better monster next time!" Rubeus said.
"What good would that possibly do? Those sailor scouts have gotten so powerful, they'll just make mincemeat out of the next one." a female voice said. In walked a familiar looking girl dressed in a sailor scout outfit. It was cyan-colored and the girl had red curly hair. Yep, this appeared to be Molly Baker, Serena's best friend in the normal dimension. But here, she is the evil Sailor Earth.
"You have a better suggestion, my Sailor Earth?" Queen Beryl said.
"My queen, I have much better fighting abilities than any of Rubeus's monsters could ever hope to achieve. If we can wear the girls out with our vast array of Tenga warriors, I can take them all down for you." Sailor Earth said.
"Hmmm... perhaps that might work. See that your mission ends in success, Sailor Earth." Queen Beryl said, tightly clutching her staff.
"Of course, my queen... I shall prepare the Tengas at once." Sailor Earth said. With that, she walked away to prepare her attack.

In the Command Center (which looks just like the one in the first couple seasons of Power Rangers), all five of the sailor scouts rematerialized in front of Fiore, Endymion's faithful assistant (and the same one that was the villain of the Sailor Moon R movie). Rini and Hotaru had reappeared as well, but they were back to their normal size. They were, however, wearing glowing blue necklaces that they hadn't been wearing before.
"Yes yes yes! Welcome back, girls. Glad to see you're all safe. And hello to the new girls, too. You've been given necklaces that have allowed you to shrink down to a more suitable height for the time being." Fiore said. Rini nodded in acknowledgement before looking up and seeing the head of Endymion himself locked in a glowing green tube. She couldn't believe the guy looked exactly like her future father, Darien.
"Now then, I once again congratulate you girls on defeating the monster, but we'll have to be more on our toes. It's obvious the Negaverse is planning a stronger attack down the road with these tougher monsters coming after us." Endymion said, his voice echoing throughout the Command Center.
"If I had to guess, those monsters were created by Sailor Earth." Serena said.
"It is highly probable, Serena. Only someone as evil as herself would make monsters that difficult to beat. If that's the case, we'll have to be on our toes." Endymion said.
"In the meantime, all looks quiet in the city. Endymion and I will monitor for any more Negaverse activity." Fiore said. The five sailor scouts nodded before Hotaru and Rini stepped in front of them.

"Uh... excuse me, but could one of you explain what is going and why you look so alike to the people we know so much?" Rini asked.
"Hmmm... yes, an explanation is indeed in order. My name is Endymion. I was once the king of this entire planet until I was sentenced away to a time warp by Queen Beryl." Endymion said.
"Queen Beryl!?" Rini shouted, recognizing the name from Serena's previous tales before she met her for the first time.
"Yes. Observe the viewing globe." Endymion said. Rini and Hotaru did just that by looking back at the globe as the images came into view.
"This is Queen Beryl, ruler of the evil galactic empire known as the Negaverse. Her evil is unparalleled with anything else in the galaxy. She will sway anyone with ease. With her henchmen and Tenga Warriors, she plans to conquer Earth." Endymion said. Suddenly, after Queen Beryl's trademark evil laugh, the picture revealed Queen Beryl's most loyal henchmen. Alan and Ann, the brother and sister of the Doom Tree. Rubeus, the one who makes all the monsters. And one new face... this one had a sailor outfit on just like the other girls. It was cyan-colored, and the girl's hair was red.
"Who is that other sailor scout?" Hotaru asked.
"That... is Sailor Earth. She used to be my friend, Molly Baker, until she turned herself to the dark side." Serena said, softly.
"Oh... I'm sorry." Rini said.
"It's really too bad. She's the strongest sailor scout of them all. She has all the natural powers you can think of. She always puts up quite a challenge." Raye said.
"Well, haven't you tried to bring her back to your side?" Hotaru asked. All the girls shook their heads.
"Molly went to the Negaverse herself, not vice versa. And we've tried many times to bring her back, even with devices and such, but we've always failed. We recently agreed she should be destroyed just like Queen Beryl herself." Fiore said. Rini wanted to object, but couldn't find the words to do so.
"Anyway, these five girls transform themselves into sailor scouts and help to defend the city with their passions for love, justice, and good will. When they need help, they call upon the ancient animal spirits to assist them in battle." Endymion said.
"So those big machines we came across... they're animal spirits?" Rini asked. The viewing globe went on again to show the young girls the different zords that these sailor scouts were piloting.
"Correct, Rini. Serena, leader of the sailor scouts, commands the Moon Griffin Planetzord. Amy, swift and cunning as water, commands the Mercury Unicorn Planetzord. Raye, brave and fearless as the flames of the night sky, controls the Mars Phoenix Planetzord. Lita, strong and powerful as the very zord she pilots, holds power over the Jupiter Dragon Planetzord. Mina, agile and swift like the winds of tomorrow, commands the Venus Oryx Planetzord. And when teamwork is necessary to get the job done, the Planetzord unite to form the most powerful fighting machine of them all... the Sailor Planet Megazord!" Endymion said.

"Wow... we don't have anything like this in the world we come from." Rini said.
"Hey, that reminds me... how are we going to get back anyway? Black holes certainly aren't easy to open." Hotaru said.
"Another black hole opened? Oh dear... I was afraid of that. Queen Beryl tends to poke holes in the space-time continuum because of her endless efforts to conquer the Earth any way she can. Perhaps you got caught in one of those holes which open up in nearby dimensions." Fiore said.
"Yes, perhaps that is how you got here. We can find a way to return you two girls back, but give us time. Our battle against the Negaverse is a higher priority." Endymion said.
"Well... alright. I guess we can stay and help." Rini said.
"She can hang around with us, Endymion. We can pretend they're little cousins of Serena." Mina said.
"Very well. As I said, we will continue to monitor for Negaverse activity around the world. Good luck, and let the power protect you." Endymion said. The girls nodded and then teleported out of the Command Center, Rini and Hotaru included.

The sailor scouts, all back in their street clothes (including Rini and Hotaru), appeared outside of a place that was clearly labeled 'Luna & Artemis Catnap Café.' The girls could see the logo right on the entrance doors, which had the cats of Luna and Artemis winking right at them.
"Luna and Artemis?" Rini asked.
"Yep. They're so popular around here because they're so nice to everyone." Amy said.
"They call it the Catnap Café because it's a great place to relax as well by doing other things!" Raye said.
"Like the karaoke machine!!! That's the coolest thing you'll ever see!" Mina shouted.
"Come on, let's just go inside and get ourselves some Luna Shakes." Serena said. Everyone nodded as all the girls walked inside. Inside, the girls were proving to Rini and Hotaru that they were right. There was a karaoke machine and stage that Mina immediately ran off to. The various colored mats were for, in the case of Lita, martial arts practice, as well as spiritual healing classes that Raye always held. Serena and Amy were pretty much the only ones that worked their way up to the bar, where Luna and Artemis were busy serving up the many orders coming their way. As Rini and Hotaru looked on, there was something noticably different about the two.

"Luna? Artemis? As humans?" Rini said. Indeed, Luna and Artemis were full fledged humans instead of the cats that she knew them as. Luna had long purple hair and was wearing a yellow dress that probably came straight out of the 1970s. Nevertheless, many boys would constantly remind Luna how cute she looked in that dress. Artemis, Luna's husband and the true owner of the café in this dimension, was just as impressive looking. Many of the girls couldn't stop drooling over his silky smooth white hair and matching-in-color suede suit. You might think it's out of whack for someone to be wearing something like that, but it didn't bother anyone that couldn't get enough of Artemis.

Serena, Amy, Rini, and Hotaru all sat on seperate stools as they watched Luna and Artemis approach them with a smile.
"Well, hello again, girls! I assume you're here for the Luna Shakes again?" Luna said. Rini had to shake her head... this Luna sounded exactly like the one from her dimension!
"Yep. Make it four! Myself, Amy, and... my two little cousins, Rini and Hotaru." Serena said.
"Oh, you never told us you had cousins." Artemis said.
"We don't get to see them often. They travel a lot with their parents." Amy said, making a cover story for the two.
"Ah, okay. Well, four Luna Shakes coming right up!" Luna said, winking at the girls before she went to make those shakes of hers.

Back at the Command Center, Endymion and Fiore was watching the viewing globe while the alarms went off. The globe was showing a bunch of Tenga warriors running down the streets with Sailor Earth walking behind them.
"Oh dear! Oh me! Oh my! Endymion... we've got birdheads running loose in Tokyo! And Sailor Earth is with them!" Fiore shouted.
"You must contact the Sailor Scouts immediately, Fiore." Endymion said.
"Right away, Endymion. (sigh) That Sailor Earth is really getting underneath my skin." Fiore said as he pressed a few buttons to open a communications link to the sailor scouts.

While Rini and Hotaru were talking about how different their world was in comparison to the one they were at right now, the watches on Serena and Amy's wrists started to beep several notes (part of the Sailor Moon theme, I might add). They signaled to Lita, Raye, and Mina, who had also heard it go off, to follow them outside.
"Uh... listen, Luna. We're kinda late for something, so we'll catch you later, okay? Bye!" Serena said, leaving the Luna Shakes on the table. Luna called out for the girls, but they couldn't hear. Luna just shrugged as she took back the shakes she had made.
"(sigh) Teenagers. Always on the go, aren't they?" Luna said to Artemis.
"Yeah, but you know that's what makes them so special." Artemis said with a smile. Luna just giggled and kissed Artemis on the cheek as the two continued with their day.

Outside, all seven girls were standing at the entrance when Serena pressed a button on her communicator.
"This is Serena, Endymion. Go ahead." Serena said.
"Sailor Scouts, Fiore and I have just spotted Sailor Earth and a platoon of Tenga warriors wandering the city streets. Go after them immediately." Endymion said.
"We're on it." Serena said before pressing the button again.
"Should we bring Rini and Hotaru with us? I mean... they are just kids after all." Raye said.
"Now just a moment! We can fight too, because we're also sailor scouts!" Rini shouted.
"And don't forget we did save you guys from that lizard monster." Hotaru said.
"Yes, that is true. I had honestly forgotten about that." Amy said.
"They can come with us, but just to help fight the Tengas. Sailor Earth is mine." Serena said. She and the other girls then pressed buttons on their communicators, with Rini and Hotaru holding onto some of the bodies so they could be teleported as well. The girls then disappeared in different colors of light.

Meanwhile, in the city, Sailor Earth was walking around while various Tenga warriors were raiding jewelry shops and nearby citizens. One shop they really trashed good was the OSAP, the jewelry shop that Molly used to live in before she became Sailor Earth.
Just then, the Sailor Scouts, still in their street clothes of matching colors, appeared right in front of the Tengas.
"Well, well. The Sailor Scouts have arrived, just as I hoped they would. And complete with my good friend, Serena." Sailor Earth said. Serena stepped forward and had a mean look on her face.
"I stopped being your friend a long time ago, Molly. Anyone associated with the Negaverse goes down, no matter what." Serena said.
"Big talk from such a small fry. The Negaverse has given me all the power I've wanted. It is you that is mistaken!" Sailor Earth shouted.
"Are we going to talk or fight?" Serena said.
"I was afraid you wouldn't ask. Tengas... attack!" Sailor Earth shouted. The bird warriors then charged head on towards the five girls, who charged themselves with martial arts stances. They took on the Tengas one by one with all sorts of punching and kicking moves. Rini and Hotaru just stood by shocked at what they were seeing.
"Wow... they sure don't fight like Sailor Scouts." Rini said.
"Yeah. At least not like ours." Hotaru said. Sailor Earth had summoned more Tenga warriors just as the first batch had been taken down. There were a lot more than the last time.
"Give up, Sailor Scouts! I'll just keep summoning Tengas as long as at least one survives!" Sailor Earth said. And she was right. Only one Tenga was needed to send out a call for more. The five girls backed to where Rini and Hotaru had been standing.
"The Sailor Scouts don't know when to give up, Sailor Earth. Ready, girls!?" Serena shouted as she reached for her morpher that was attached to her belt. The other girls immediately reached for their morphers as well. Rini just shook her head... she should've figured their transformation devices would be radically different as well.
"Ready!" They all shouted in unison.
"It's Sailor Scout time!" Serena shouted. She thrusted her morpher first into the sky and then out towards Sailor Earth and the Tengas.

"Venus Oryx!" Mina shouted. Instantly, her street clothes vanished and rematerialized into her Sailor Venus outfit.
"Jupiter Dragon!" Lita shouted.
"Mars Phoenix!" Raye shouted.
"Mercury Unicorn!" Amy shouted.
"Moon Griffin!" Serena shouted. The same thing happened to the other four girls as they all became everyone's favorite group of heroines.
"We are the Sailor Scouts!" They all shouted.
"And in the name of the Moon, we will punish you!" Serena said. Rini smiled. At least some things didn't change.
"(yawn) Such a boring introduction. I'll make sure it's your last!" Sailor Earth shouted. She and the Tenga warriors then charged again, and the battle resumed. Sailor Moon and Sailor Earth were battling it out while the other girls took care of the Tenga warriors.

Rini and Hotaru had watched the girls transform and were eager to get in on the action as well.
"Think we should help them?" Rini asked.
"Well, it's better than standing here and waiting to be attacked." Hotaru said. Rini smiled at that remark.
"Moon Prism Power!" Rini said.
"Saturn Planet Power!" Hotaru shouted.
"MAKE UP!" They both shouted. Soon, both girls were once again transformed into their sailor soldier outfits. Rini as Sailor Chibi-Moon and Hotaru as Sailor Saturn. Both girls started to go after Tenga warriors themselves, with Hotaru taking it easy on the battling since she didn't have the stamina of the other girls.

The battling soon got to a point where the five Sailor Scouts had to use their weapons to combat against their adversaries. Sailor Venus was throwing a whipping session as she attacked the Tengas with her Love Me Chain. Sailor Jupiter was causing quite a thunderstorm as she struck her opponents with her Lightning Staff. Sailor Mars was burning her enemies down with her Flame Sniper. Sailor Mercury chilled her opponents down to sub-zero temperatures with one strike of her Ice Daggers. And Sailor Moon's Moon Scepter was meeting up with Sailor Earth's Heavenly Sword. Rini and Hotaru, of course, fought against the Tengas the old-fashioned way, with special powers.

After a few minutes of battling, the Tengas were cobbled up in a corner. Sailor Earth was unhappy that they started to show their signs of fear at this point of the fight.
"C'mon, you weaklings! Where is your pride!?" Sailor Earth shouted. Raye was the first to notice this as Rini and Hotaru ran behind her and the other girls.
"We got them cornered, girls!" Raye shouted.
"Alright, team, let's bring them together!" Serena shouted, holding her Moon Scepter up.
"Right!" all the girls shouted. They one by one called out the name of their weapon before throwing it up in the sky.
"Flame Sniper!" Sailor Mars shouted.
"Love Me Chain!" Sailor Venus shouted.
"Ice Daggers!" Sailor Mercury shouted.
"Lightning Staff!" Sailor Jupiter shouted. She had to take apart her staff into two pieces for it to fit onto the weapon.
"Moon Scepter!" Sailor Moon shouted. She jumped up and slammed her scepter down on the top of the weapon. Then she landed back down on the ground, holding what she called the Sailor Star Blaster in her hands.
"Sailor Star Blaster!" they all shouted.
"FIRE!" Serena shouted. The weapon then shot a rainbow-colored blast of energy that struck the Tengas and destroyed them on contact. The blast was so intense, it caught Sailor Earth by surprise and knocked her to the ground. But she slowly got back up on her feet.
"Arrrrgh!! You may have destroyed my Tengas! But I won't be so easy to defeat!" Sailor Earth shouted.
"Seven against one is some pretty overwhelming odds, I must say." Amy said.
"That's right. You don't need to be a rocket scientist to figure out you're outnumbered." Lita said. Rini and Hotaru stepped in front of the girls.
"Give up, Sailor Earth. It's useless to try and fight all of us." Sailor Saturn said. Sailor Earth just gave a snarling look. She may have been the most powerful sailor scout of them all, but seven against one was indeed tricky...

Meanwhile, up on the Moon, Queen Beryl and her lackies had watched as their Tenga warriors got destroyed with one shot by the Sailor Scouts' powerful weapon.
"Wow! Did you see that? It only took one shot!" Ann said.
"We all saw that, you dummy! Now don't irritate the queen like you did last time!" Alan said.
"Me? You were the one that aggravated her the last time around!" Ann said.
"SILENCE!" Queen Beryl shouted, shooting a lightning bolt from her staff that had a crystal ball on its top. Beryl stared glaringly at Rubeus.
"What? Sailor Earth was the one that led those Tengas, not me!" Rubeus said.
"Yes, that's true. Perhaps we are all underestimating the true power of Sailor Earth." Beryl said.
"What makes you say that, my queen?" Ann asked. Beryl was then holding her staff with two hands. Everyone immediately got an idea of what she was doing.
"I always have to do everything myself... now watch and learn as those Sailor Scouts meet their biggest challenge yet!" Queen Beryl shouted, ignoring the pun she had just made.
"Oh... this could get exciting! I can't wait to see Sailor Earth as a giant sailor scout." Alan said.
"Magic wand... make my Sailor Earth grow!" Queen Beryl shouted as she threw her wand towards Tokyo, Japan, on Earth.

Just as Sailor Earth wanted to attack the girls again, she saw Queen Beryl's wand land almost completely beside her. The Sailor Scouts saw the wand also, and knew this wasn't a good thing.
"Oh no... don't tell me..." Lita said.
"Queen Beryl plans to enlarge Sailor Earth as well." Mina said, finishing up Lita's train of thought. Just then, a wave of green energy floated from the crystal ball towards Sailor Earth's body. She had seen Beryl's monsters go through the same kind of effect many times, but now it was her turn to feel the growth energy of the queen's wand.
Sailor Earth didn't waste any time laughing evilly. The bigger she grew, the louder her laugh. Eventually she stopped growing at around 300 feet tall, the same size any monster would grow to. She looked down at the puny sized Sailor Scouts.
"Well, Sailor Scouts, it seems the odds have shifted in my favor!" Sailor Earth shouted. She slowly raised her emerald-colored boot over the girls.
"Look out!" Serena shouted. The other six Sailor Scouts naturally heeded Serena's advice and leapt with her to the side. Sailor Earth's foot hit nothing but pavement, but the impact of the stomp left the ground shaky and hard to stand on. Serena quickly stood up.

"Well, girls, you know what we gotta do, right?" Serena said. They all nodded.
"Alright then! Let's do it!" Serena shouted. She and the other five girls then held one hand in the air and looked up at the sky, away from the giantess Sailor Earth.
"We need Planetzord power, now!" They all shouted. A stroke of thunder lit up the clear skies, and the girls one by one called for their zords.
"Venus Oryx Planetzord Power!" Sailor Venus shouted. A giant gold-colored Oryx zord could be seen weaving its way around the buildings of the city.
"Jupiter Dragon Planetzord Power!" Sailor Jupiter shouted. The skies thundered again, and a series of lightning bolts ensued afterwards. When the skies cleared, a ferocious-looking emerald-colored chinese dragon zord came flying in.
"Mars Phoenix Planetzord Power!" Sailor Mars shouted. A loud screeching sound could be heard in the skies, and they soon lit up with a light fiery color as the Phoenix zord flew by.
"Mercury Unicorn Planetzord Power!" Sailor Mercury shouted. The wind suddenly grew fierce as cold air was blowing through the city. Right next to the Mina's Oryx zord, the Unicorn galloped gallantly past city blocks and towards its master.
"Moon Griffin Planetzord Power!" Sailor Moon shouted. A brilliant flash of light covered the other four zords, but it faded away fast as the mighty Griffin was flapping its wings gently down towards the city. It landed in between the Unicorn and Oryx zords and likewise carefully ran for the Sailor Scouts. The five Sailor Scouts then jumped way up in the air and into the cockpits of their respective zords.
"All Sailor Scouts report!" Sailor Moon shouted.
"Sailor Mars, let's kick some Sailor Earth butt!" Raye shouted.
"Sailor Mercury here, all systems operational." Amy said.
"Sailor Jupiter... ready to go!" Lita said.
"Sailor Venus... the stereo's still working fine!" Mina said.
"Alright, girls, let's bring them together." Sailor Moon said. Slowly, all the zords began to transform and form together to form the Sailor Planet Megazord.

Rini and Hotaru had watched all these events unfold right before their eyes. Rini still couldn't believe everything she was seeing, but she watched with interest as the giants would soon begin their battle.
"Shouldn't we help the girls out?" Rini asked to Hotaru. Hotaru took a look upwards and then shook her head.
"This should be between the girls and Sailor Earth. We'll step in when we have to." Hotaru said, pointing to the glowing blue necklaces that were keeping them at their 'normal' height for the time being. In the meantime, the Sailor Planet Megazord was standing eye-to-eye with the enlarged Sailor Earth. The evil giantess drew out her Heavenly Sword.
"Bleh... it won't matter that you have a powerful piece of machinery with you. I will show you the superiority of a human's fighting spirit!" Sailor Earth said. She then jumped over a group of smaller buildings and landed right in front of the Sailor Planet Megazord. She struck it a few times with her Heavenly Sword. The girls did their best to stabilize their fighting machine.
"Geez... she's got some power moves!" Lita shouted.
"Beryl's magic must’ve amplified her strength to the point where she’s able to damage us!" Amy shouted.
"Then we'll just have to fight fire with fire. We need the Solar Sword!" Serena said, pressing a few buttons on the control panel. A gold-colored sword soon descended from the heavens and landed next to the Megazord. It quickly picked the sword up and used it to block Sailor Earth's next strike.
For the next few minutes, the two swords clanged together and caused quite a ruckus throughout the city. Many buildings got trampled on either by the giantess or by the Megazord. Sailor Earth backed away to catch her breath.

"You are worthy opponents, Sailor Scouts. But this is where the comparisons end! Heavenly Sword, Fire Strike!" Sailor Earth shouted. She then held her sword up, charging it with energy, before pointing it forward and allowing a wall of fireballs to come flying at the Megazord, which took major damage. Immediately afterwards, Sailor Earth made a jumping kick right for the Megazord's chest. The hit caused the Megazord to fall down onto the ground.
"Auxiliary systems are down!" Amy shouted.
"Mina, try to bring the stabilizers to full power!" Serena shouted.
"I'm working on it!" Mina shouted. The ground underneath the girls shook with each step that Sailor Earth took towards the Megazord. She gave a soft evil laugh as she looked right in the cockpit at the Sailor Scouts.
"And so the mighty Sailor Scouts go down to my feet. I just love situations like this, don't you?" Sailor Earth said.
"Molly! You'll never get away with this! I swear I'll bring you down just for betraying us!" Serena said.
"Oh please... all Endymion gave you was those toy robots based on wild animals nobody has heard of for years. Things like this are possible when you're with the Negaverse! Now it's time to end this!" Sailor Earth said as she raised her Heavenly Sword up to the sky.

Down on the ground, Sailor Chibi-Moon and Sailor Saturn had witnessed the Megazord get beaten down by Sailor Earth's superior power. Rini and Hotaru agreed that now was the time to help out.
"Hotaru! We have to help them!" Rini shouted.
"I agree. It's time we joined in the fray." Hotaru said. Both young girls then ripped off their glowing necklaces, causing them to grow in size. Soon, they were back to the heights they were when they first entered this dimension. In Hotaru's case, she matched Sailor Earth's size in every inch. Sailor Chibi-Moon then quickly cast one of her spells to distract the evil giantess.
"Pink Sugar Heart Attack!" Sailor Chibi-Moon shouted. Sailor Earth could see the petals heading towards her and she backed away to avoid being hit. She jumped towards Sailor Chibi-Moon in the process.
"Foolish child!" Sailor Earth shouted as she smacked Rini away. Rini fell back, landing on several buildings and people. Hotaru, also back to GTS size, ran to Rini's side to check on her friend.
"Rini, are you alright?" Hotaru asked. Rini nodded and was helped up by her friend.
"It is useless to interfere. I am more powerful than the two of you could ever imagine. You'll pay for your interference with your lives!" Sailor Earth said.
"No, it is you that will pay for deserting your friends like that. You chose a path, yes. But it was a path of evil. You cannot be forgiven for that!" Rini shouted.
"Silence! Heavenly Sword, Wind Strike!" Sailor Earth shouted. A powerful gust of wind started to blow from behind Sailor Earth's gigantic body. She was able to stay on her feet, but the little people down below were finding things to hold onto. Hotaru and Rini were struggling to maintain balance, until an idea came across Hotaru's head.
"Silence Wall!" Hotaru shouted. A barrier then formed in front of the two sailor scouts. The wind blew around this barrier and allowed them to stand safely behind. Sailor Earth called off the spell as soon as she saw this.
"So... it seems you can deflect my wind spell. Well, let's see you handle this! Heavenly Sword... Earth Strike!" Sailor Earth shouted. With that spell in mind, chunks of the ground were actually lifted up and hurled towards the two scouts. Hotaru continued to block them with her Silence Wall, but she was beginning to show signs of weariness.
"Rini... I can't... hold this barrier... any longer..." Hotaru said.
"Keep going, Hotaru. We have to keep this barrier up!" Rini said. Sailor Earth simply laughed.
"Soon I will penetrate the barrier and you two will be crushed!" Sailor Earth shouted. But just then, she lost her concentration as she could feel herself being grabbed by something.

It turned out the Sailor Planet Megazord had gotten the time it needed to recover back to full strength. It grabbed Sailor Earth and tossed her to the ground, destroying more buildings and people in the process. It was too bad that such destruction was caused, but anything to save their fellow Sailor Scouts.
"Girls... are you alright?" Raye asked. Rini and Hotaru simply nodded.
"Damn! I thought for sure I brought you girls down once and for all!" Sailor Earth said, getting up and brushing the building dust off her suit.
"You should know by now that we Sailor Scouts are hard to get rid of!" Sailor Mars shouted.
"Surrender at once, Sailor Earth. You have nowhere to protect yourself." Sailor Mercury said. Indeed, Sailor Earth was currently surrounded by Sailor Saturn, Sailor Chibi-Moon, and the Megazord as they all circled around her.
"Bleh... all of you should know I cannot be defeated so easily! Heavenly sword..." Sailor Earth said, but just as she was charging her sword again with power, Sailor Saturn was quick to intervene.
"Silence Glaive Surprise!" Sailor Saturn shouted. The pink ribbons that emerged from her glaive flew straight at Sailor Earth's sword, knocking it out of her two hands. It landed down within the streets of Tokyo.
"What... NO!" Sailor Earth shouted. She ran backwards to pick up her sword.

"Alright, this is our chance! Power up the Solar Sword!" Sailor Moon shouted. Soon, it was now the Solar Sword from the Megazord that was beaming with energy. Rini noticed this, but couldn't imagine they would do this to a former friend of the Sailor Scouts. Taking a page from her future mother's playbook, she thought about what to do and ran in front of the Megazord.
"No, please!!! Don't shoot!" Rini shouted.
"What!? What does that kid think she's doing?" Lita said.
"Rini... please move aside. We must destroy Sailor Earth!" Amy said.
"But why? There's still a chance she might be good. Just because she's joined the Negaverse doesn't mean you have totally lost her." Rini said.
"That's not possible! Molly clearly wanted to side with evil. How can there be any kind of goodness in her heart?" Serena said.
"My... my mother once told me there's goodness in all of us. Whether we choose to utilize that goodness or not is up to the person." Rini said. Hotaru caught on to Rini's idea and walked to her side.
"Let her try her plan. I think she sees something that maybe none of us do." Hotaru said. The sailor scouts inside the Megazord looked at each other in a variety of feelings, mostly confusion. But they finally reached a decision.
"Alright, very well. But we'll be standing close behind you in case she tries to harm you." Serena said. Rini smiled.
"Thank you, Mommy." Rini said, winking at the Megazord. Rini then turned around to face Sailor Earth, who had just picked up her sword again. Sailor Earth looked as Rini was getting down on one knee while pulling out the bell that was needed to call Pegasus.

"Pegasus, we need your help! Twinkle Yell!" Rini said as she started to ring her bell. A bright light appeared and it quickly shrunk down to the size of a pea. The light vanished to reveal Pegasus, Rini's faithful horse and the protector of dreams. Pegasus hadn't grown with Rini, and as a result, it looked puny as it was being held in Rini's left hand. But Rini didn't let this distract her.
"Pegasus, I want to see Sailor Earth's dreams. Maybe they will tell us if she has any goodness left in her heart." Rini said. Pegasus neighed as if it was agreeing with Rini's logic. Its horn then started to glow brightly with the flash soon getting into Sailor Earth's eyes.
"Blast it! What is this bright light?!?!?" Sailor Earth shouted. Just then, Sailor Earth started to see images of her former self. The days when she was Molly Baker and a good friend of not just Serena, but the rest of the Sailor Scouts. She could see the images of Endymion handing her the morpher to transform into Sailor Earth, the world's most powerful sailor scout. Everything else was of all the good deeds she had done. Very rarely would something regarding Queen Beryl or the Negaverse show up.
"What's... going on here?" Sailor Earth asked, dropping her Heavenly Sword from lack of concentration. The images then faded out and she was back to looking at the giant sailor scouts of Saturn and Chibi-Moon, as well as the Sailor Planet Megazord.
"I remember... I had such good times together with Serena and friends." Sailor Earth said. The sailor scouts looked on with stunned looks on their faces.
"Unbelievable... it seems we might have judged Sailor Earth too quickly." Mina said.
"Perhaps she hasn't fully converted herself to the Negaverse like we originally thought." Lita said. Serena couldn't stop staring at her former friend. She couldn't even decide what she was more amazed by... the kind of powers that Rini possessed in allowing Sailor Earth to see her dreams, or just as Lita said, Molly hadn't totally forgotten the memories she shared as friends and in her early days as Sailor Earth.
"Well, this changes a lot, I would say..." Serena said softly.
"Wait, look!" Raye shouted, pointing out towards Sailor Earth. Queen Beryl had appeared on Sailor Earth's right shoulder.

"Sailor Earth! Return to me at once!" Queen Beryl shouted.
"Queen Beryl? But I was just about to..." Sailor Earth said.
"You'll listen to me as a loyal servant of the Negaverse! Is that clear!?" Queen Beryl shouted. Sailor Earth took one more look at the good guys before she nodded and picked up her sword. She put back the mean look on her face.
"Don't think that this has ended, sailor fools!" Sailor Earth shouted. A black portal soon appeared and Sailor Earth jumped through it, teleporting herself and Queen Beryl back to the Negaverse's hiding place.
"Darn... she got away!" Hotaru said.
"Yes, she and Queen Beryl have escaped again, but at least we Sailor Scouts taught her a lesson." Raye said.
"But we learned something more important today. Let's get back to the Command Center." Serena said. She and the girls, along with the giantesses Sailor Saturn and Sailor Chibi-Moon, all teleported back to the Command Center. Pegasus teleported back to where it originally came from.

The five Sailor Scouts all stood inside the Command Center, transformed back into their street clothes. Hotaru and Rini, meanwhile, were still standing outside and still transformed. Since they didn't have their necklaces anymore, they had no way to shrink down to a more suitable size. It really didn't matter though since Endymion was ready to send them home to their proper dimension anyway. The giantesses listened in through an audio and video linkup that Fiore and Amy had each set up.
"Congratulations on foiling another one of Queen Beryl's evil schemes, Sailor Scouts." Endymion said.
"Thank you, Endymion, but we learned something more important than that today." Lita said.
"Like how we need to get some tougher armor on that Megazord. We got kicked around twice today!" Raye said. The other girls laughed at Raye's remark, even Serena.
"That, and we've decided to try and fight for Sailor Earth's freedom." Serena said. The other girls looked at Serena.
"Really, Serena? Can she really be saved?" Amy asked.
"Before today, I didn't think there was any kind of chance whatsoever. But after what Rini showed me, there might be a shot. I hope you don't mind, Endymion." Serena said.
"Very well, girls. Just remember that Sailor Earth will always be a formidable opponent, and she will not be easy to get back based on her loyalty with the Negaverse. But if you wish to make that your mission on top of defending this world, I will not stop you." Endymion said.
"I think we really owe a lot to those two girls outside for helping us out." Mina said.
"Yes, I agree. I must commend Sailor Saturn and Sailor Chibi-Moon for coming to the aid of my Sailor Scouts, even at the most inopportune of times." Endymion said, looking at the viewing globe so he could talk to the enlarged girls.
"Gee, thanks. Im glad we could help out at least a little bit, especially since I might have just saved Sailor Earth's life." Rini said.
"And hopefully for the better. I can only hope your mission to bring her back is a successful one." Hotaru said. The girls nodded over what they had said.

"Master Endymion, the trans-dimension gateway is ready to be opened outside!" Fiore shouted.
"Very good, Fiore. Once again, girls, thank you for your help. We shall now prepare a gateway for you to return to your home dimension." Endymion said.
"Thanks... I really wish I could explore this dimension more. It's just so different from what Im used to seeing every day." Rini said.
"Yes, I agree with you, Rini. But the Serena in our dimension must be worried about the two of us missing." Hotaru said.
"I know." Rini replied. Just as she had said that, the gateway opened up behind the girls, much like how that wormhole opened to bring the girls to this dimension in the first place.
"Goodbye, girls. Be safe on your trip home!" Serena said. The other girls were giving out similar goodbye messages as they waved off the girls.
"Let the power protect you, Rini and Hotaru." Endymion said. The giantesses then nodded and stepped through the portal before it closed for good.

When the girls finally reached the other side of the portal, they landed in very familiar territory. In fact, it was the same part of the park they had been in before they were pulled to the other dimension. They were also back to their normal size, yet they remained transformed as Sailor Scouts. Noticing this, they powered down. Rini looked to see Serena (holding Rini's Luna Ball) and Haruka about a block or two away, no doubt looking for the girls. Rini and Hotaru immediately sprinted for the older girls.

"Serena!" Rini shouted. Serena looked to see Rini and Hotaru both running for them.
"Rini! There you are!" Serena shouted in happiness as she ran to hug her future daughter. Hotaru had run up to Haruka to hug her.
"Rini, where have you been!? Haruka and I have been searching for at least a couple of hours!" Serena asked.
"Well... we were kinda fighting monsters." Rini said.
"Big ones too." Hotaru said.
"Monsters? Are you sure?" Haruka asked.
"Yeah... but they weren't too tough. Rini zapped them away rather easily." Hotaru said.
"I guess I did! It's really a long story, Serena." Rini said.
"Well, you can explain it while I'm driving you girls home." Haruka said, smiling and pulling out her car keys from her pocket.
"Yeah, good idea. Come on, girls." Serena said as she and the other girls jumped into Haruka's car. Haruka then started the engine and drove off while Rini and Hotaru proceeded to tell the truth on what had been a big day for them.
