Usagi felt all of her hopes threatening to crash down, and it was all she could do to hold back tears. She had to be strong.

"If you don't let us out now, our friends will be here soon. And trust me, you do not want to meet them," Usagi threatened. The woman laughed, the sound reverberating throughout the arena.

"Did you really think I would just let you walk out of here? You underestimate, dearest. I assume you're looking for these?" the woman purred.

Out of nowhere Usagi's brooch and Haruka's pen materialized in front of them, pulsating with power that was ready to be unleashed. Usagi gaped in surprise. Why was she handing them their powers? Usagi glanced at Haruka for help, not sure if she could accept this 'gift'.

Haruka couldn't blame Usagi for being so unsure about their transformation wands appearing in front of them. There was quite the possibility that it was some sort of trick or there items had been modified in such a way that they would hurt them. 

The blonde guardian had to take that chance though, she needed to protect her Princess at any cost, even if she caused herself pain or her own death. As long as Usagi was fine. 

"Uranus Crystal Power, Make up!" She called out grabbing her henshin that was floating in the air infront of her. Wasting no time, she summoned her space sword as she moved to put herself between her Princess and her supposed evil aunt. 

"I suggest you let us go," she said. "You really don't want to find out what happens if you don't."

Seeing Haruka transformed, Usagi felt much more confident, and she followed suit. Now as Sailor Moon, she felt so much stronger and knew in her heart that together, she and Uranus could defeat this woman.

"You may leave. If you give me the Silver Crystal," Selena said, as if her request were simple.

"Never!" Sailor Moon yelled, her confidence echoing throughout the arena.

Selena sighed, looking down in defeat. "Well, in that case..."

Before Sailor Moon could react, Selena had shot a beam of dark energy in Sailor Uranus's direction. If Sailor Uranus had been paying attention, she would be able to evade it.

Haruka cursed herself as she felt the beam of energy hit her. She had taken most of her attention off the fight and was attempting to make sure that her Princess was alright. At least it had hit her and not Usagi. 

It was if time had slowed down for the senshi of the wind, she felt herself slowly falling backwards before hitting the ground with what sounded to her muffled ears as a soft thud. 

She tried to gather the energy to get herself up but she couldn't get her limbs to respond. Was she dying? 

Her one regret was that she wasn't able to get her Princess to safety. What little strength she had left after her torture sessions began to leave her body.
