Mika was sitting on the roof of the cabin they were hiding at. "Who's bright idea was it for us to hide out in the snowy frigid mountians anyway?!?"Mika called to no one in particular. "Well, while I'm up here."Mika said to herself, reaching into her satchel and pulling out a crystal pipe that was curled at the end. We should all know it by now as Peraru's pipe that he gave Chibiusa.
Before they left Chibiusa had given it to her for good luck. Flashback... They were walking towards the carrige that would take them to their, in Mika's words, "Hidey Hole.". "Mika-chan!"Chibiusa cried, causing her to turn and look at her as she caught up with them. "Here!"Chibiusa said, placing the pipe in her hands. "But Chibiusa-chan, Peraru gave this to you, I couldn't-"Mika stuttured but Chibiusa putting a finger on her lips to stop her.
"I consider that pipe my good luck charm, I want you to take it with you for good luck and bring it back to me when you return."Chibiusa said, smiling at her younger cousin. "Arigato Chibiusa-chan!"Mika replied, hugging her. End flashback...
She had cherished it for the two months, one week, three hours, and fifteen minutes (She actually keeps track?!?) they had been in hiding. She put the pipe to her lips and started playing another lullaby Aqua had sang to her when she was younger "Rinpuasu no Korimuta". Then somehow, Stella was sitting beside her singing:
Chitana te no hira ha
NEMOPHILA no hana
Pukkuri hoppeta ha
ERICA no tsubomi
Atatakai haru no
Sayo kaze mitai na matsuge

Saa oyasumi no jikan da yo
Suteki na LADY ni naru
Yume wo mite hosii yo

Suyasuya ude no naka
Kawaii negao
Mamoritai zutoo
LUPINUS no hana no you ni sotto
By the time the song was over they were both laughing. "Let's go inside Mika-chan, it's cold and Ookasan just made Loco Hot Cocoa!"Stella said as they both hopped down into Mika's open bedroom window. "Yes! I love Auntie Trinity's Loco Hot Cocoa!"Mika said as the two ran downstaires. five minutes later...
"Thanks for the Loco Hot Cocoa Trinz, it was awsome!"Aqua said. "YEAH!"Mika and Stella said together. "Well, I do make a mean cup of Loco Hot Cocoa!"Trinity said, taking their cups into the kitchen. Then, the lights went out. "AHHHHHH!!!"Stella, Mika, and Aqua cried, hooking onto each other *Damian in Aqua's case*.
"Don't worry Aqua, we probably just blew a fuse, I'll go fix it."Damian said, standing up. "I'll help you."Trinity said, following him outside. After waiting twenty minutes with no sign of Damian or Trinity the three left in the house were starting to get worried. "Ookasan, were going to see what's keeping Otosan and Auntie Trinity okay?"Mika said. "Okay, but be careful!"Aqua called as the two walked outside.
After twenty more minutes with no sign of Damian, Trinity, or the girls Aqua was getting really scared so she decided to go to the side of the house where the fuse box was to see what was keeping them. But when she got there what she saw almost made her faint: An open fuse box, with a pair of plyers hanging on a snapped cord, and no one in sight. She started running through the forest looking for them, shouting their names, but found nothing. Then, she realized-"I'M LOST!"She cried, falling to her knees and starting to cry.
"Poor, Pathetic NeoQueen Selena."A voice said, causing her to look up and see-"Miyuki!"Aqua cried, standing up. "I finally have you right where I want you!"Miyuki cried, launching a dark energy sphere at her and Aqua wrapping her arms around her stomach to guard it and taking the full brunt of the attack. She couldn't try henshining again, too risky. She knew there was only one thing she could do. And as if reading her mind her crystal started glowing and her gown sprang out of her body.
She started shining the bright, healing light on Miyuki and she fell to her knees at it's brightness. "You don't really want to kill me Miyuki, I know you never wanted to!"Aqua cried as the light surrounding the crystal got twice as bright. Then, Miyuki passed out, her pale skin got more color, her hair went to a copper color, and her eyes went pale blue as Aqua fell to her knees. Suddenly, a pair of warm, protecting arms wrapped around her shoulders. She looked up to see- "Michiru!"Aqua said as Michiru smiled at her and Aqua looked around to see all the senshi were there as well.
But then, she saw Hotaru was charging up her "Galactica Glaive Surprise!" attack. "Don't Saturn, she's human!"Aqua cried. But before Hotaru could stop it, the attack was launched.
Aqua ran over and checked her pulse, it was too late: Miyuki was dead.
