"Ok Hinako-chan, let's do it!"Hoshimi said to her ferternal twin sister who was standing next to her. This was their favorite way to wake Mika up in the mornings: Play pranks on her. "Right sis!"Hinako replied, lifting up the bucket that had the coldest water from Neptune in it and carrying it over to her older sister. "Okay, 1, 2, 3!"Hoshimi said as they both threw the water on her.
"AHHHHHH!!!!!"Mika screamed, falling out of her bed onto the floor as Hinako and Hoshimi started laughing. "I'M GOING TO KILL YOU LITTLE BRATS!!"Mika screamed, chasing them out of her room and down the hall. "Not likely KaKa!"Hoshimi cried over her shoulder using Mika's hated nickname against her which in turn just made her angrier.
Then, she remembered she had a meeting with the other council members from the other planets in an hour. "I'll deal with you two later, just stay out of the meeting room while were having the meeting."Mika said, walking off to her room to get ready. Outside Crystal Palace... "Well here it is, Crystal Palace."Aru said. "Can you believe the holders of the Ginzuishou, Sun Crystal, and South Pole Crystal live in this dump?!?"Tsuki said. "Well, let's go the sooner we get them the sooner we can go home."Bunny said. So with that the four girls walked inside.
Back to Mika... "Okay Mika I'm almost done with the last odango."Manami said, putting in the last few loops needed to make the star shaped odangoes. There were a few things I forgot to mention: for the last few months Peraru and Chibiusa had been going out and were really happy together, and for the last two years, at Setsuna's request, Miwa had taken her rightful place as guardian of the Time Stream which meant they only saw her on holidays, special occasions, or if she got really lonely and came to see them.
And every time they asked about their future she said the same thing, "Took a vow of silence, can't tell you." Then, Mika and Manami looked at the clock and realized, "WERE LATE!!!"They both cried, shooting down the hallway towards the meeting room. But when they got there Kaminari and Chika were standing there.
"What's going on guys?"Mika asked. "The meeting was cancelled, most of the members couldn't make it so the council member of Saturn resceduled it."Chika replied. "I'll talk to Rioka about it later."Mika giggled. "Where's everyone else?"Manami asked. "Well: Reiko's praying to the fire, Chikako's racing in a tournament, Sayuri's at a performance, Mizuki's practicing her piano, Chibiusa's on a date with Peraru in the ballroom, and Stella is walking the gardens with Seitaro."Kaminari explained.
"So all my family is on dates except for me, that freakin' stinks!"Mika said, crossing her arms but a pair of strong arms wrapping around her waist. "All you had to do was call."A voice said as she turned to see Rioka's smiling face. "Hey Rio-kun!"Mika said, turning and planting a gentle kiss on his cheek.
Then, four girls' voices cried, "HEY!" and they turned to see Aru, Bunny, Mai, and Tsuki. "Who are you and what do you want?"Mika asked. "Our names are Aru, Bunny, Mai, and Tsuki. And what we want is your crystals!"Aru said, pulling out a dart gun and pointing it at Mika. "Why on earth do you want our crystals?!?"Mika cried.
"Why is unimportant, just give them to us and we'll leave quietly."Bunny said, also pulling out a dart gun and pointing it at Kaminari and Chika. "No freakin' way!"Mika said, pressing her communicators' "Meet At The Crown" button and then turning to the girls and saying, "You four wait here, we have to go get them."Mika said as they all rushed out to the Crown leaving four confused girls in their wake.
At the Crown... "So you mean to tell us they just barged right in and asked for the crystals?!?"Stella cried in amazement. "Yeah, its you and Chibiusa all over again!"Mika replied. "Well, let's get back to the castle maybe we can get out the answer out why they need the crystals."Chibiusa suggested.
"Yeah!"They all replied, starting off down the walkway that led to the castle. But when they got there, what they saw shocked them-their mothers, looking at photo albums with the girls, and laughing. "Mom! When did you get back?"Mika said. "About two minutes ago, then we ran into your sisters so we decided to look at old photo albums!"Aqua replied.
"Sisters?!?"Mika, Stella, and Chibiusa cried, falling on the floor. "Yeah, are you sure your ok girls? Even I don't forget my own sister!"Usagi replied, looking at Trinity for emphasis. "Ookasan, can we go for ice cream?"Tsuki asked Usagi with an innocent look on her face. "Sure, let's head to the kitchen."Usagi said, leading all the girls into the kitchen.
"Were confused Onee-chan, what do those girls mean were their sisters?"Hinako asked. "I don't know, but I'm looking at those photos."Mika replied, picking up the photo album and gasping. All their photos, every one, had proof of the four girls in it. "Ok, this is way too like Chibiusa!"Mika said, passing the album to Stella and the others and they gasping as well.
"So what are we gonna do?"Stella asked. "Until we find out why their really here, play along. It's all we can do."Mika said. So they went into the kitchen to have ice cream with their mothers and "Sisters".
