Sailor S
Episode 19 Chapter 2
"Star Seeds"
Queen Serenity [thinking she meant the future of the Moon
Kingdom]
Yes... we must keep this a peaceful kingdom... good luck, Bay.
Demon [seeing the girl in the white dress/uniform]
Who are you?
Robyn
{Bay's voice-"Just do what you know, Rob!"} [So, she
does the only thing she knows!] Clear as crystal, or dark as
night; I've seen what you've done wrong and I am here to set
things right! I will stop you from bringing harm to the Royal
Family of the Silver Millenium! I am the Kagemusha!
Demon [staring]
Kagemusha? A Shadow Warrior? [It starts laughing] What can you do
to me, [sarcastically] oh, mighty Kagemusha? [laughs harder]
Robyn [angrily]
You don't think I have a chance, do you? {"You do! Believe
in yourself... Zephyr and your friends are counting on
you!"} [quietly] But what do I do to this thing? {Sailor
Zephyr's Voice - "You'll know what to do when the time
comes, Kagemusha"} [feels something inside] I feel it,
Zephyr... thank you... [she knows she must transform to access
her inner abilities, but knows she cannot allow Serenity and Luna
to see her do so] Luna! Get them out of here! Now!
Luna [knowing that she has to protect them anyway]
We'll leave... Be careful!
Demon [sees Luna and the others leaving]
No! I will not let that Seed leave!
Robyn [angrily]
Get a life, Bozo! Your own! [She attacks him and he moves out of
the way, causing her to crash onto the long dining table. She
glances at the doorway and sees their out of sight] Shadow
Pendant Power! [She transforms into her real Uniform and attacks
the demon] Shadow Fire Ignite!
Demon [hearing a call, he looks to see black flames hurling
towards him]
Another Senshi?! Impossible!
Sailor Shadow [taking a defensive position]
Not impossible! I'm here aren't I? [angrily yells out] I am the
Kagemusha! I will stop your evil ways before they damage the
future!
Demon [grinning]
Since we're introducing ourselves, I am The Star Collector. I
collect the Star Seeds of mortals and immortals alike. No one can
possibly defeat me! [glares] Not even one from the future...
Sailor Shadow [surprised]
How did you know?
Star Collector [grinning]
You mentioned me damaging the future... not even a seer could see
that is my plan. You could only be from the future. [looks her up
and down] Not to mention there are no Unknown Sailors in the Moon
Kingdom...
Sailor Shadow [taking offense]
I take that personally, Collector. [gets into defensive position]
Since you know I'm from the future... then you know I'm here to
prevent you from continuing with this...
Star Collector [angrily]
You won't succeed, Shadow Warrior!
Sailor Shadow [seriously]
You're the one who will not succeed this time, Collector!
Star Collector [laughing]
Do you not see that this will all occur? You can not stop it! You
will severely mess up the timeline for you and your friends!
Sailor Shadow [stops for a moment]
{"Is he right?"} No. No! You are the one who severely
messed things up! I was sent to put right what was never to have
been! [she stands legs together and concentrates on clearing her
mind. She wanted the answer on how to defeat him, but all she
could think about was what would happen if she failed. How could
she ever put this right?]
Star Collector [seeing her standing there]
What?! Are you planning to think me to death?! [laughs] That
won't work, Shadow Warrior. Nothing can stop me... EVER! [he
pulled out his Seed Collector and aimed it at Sailor Shadow]
Sailor Shadow [opens her eyes and realizes what she has to do
to save her friends]
Star Collector!
Star Collector [intrigued]
Yes?
Sailor Shadow [thinks of a riddle to keep him busy]
I have eyes, but I cannot see... I have ears, but cannot hear...
I have senses, but cannot feel... What am I?
Star Collector [confused]
A riddle? Why do you ask me this?
Sailor Shadow [serious]
Answer me... I'll tell you.
Star Collector [repeating the riddle over and over in his
head]
You are a sneaky one, Shadow Warrior. There's more here than is
seen... What are you planning?
Sailor Shadow [glowing light purple]
The answer was darkness, Star Collector... Something that is in
your near future... [her eyes close and her outfit changes into
her lilac dress again, but this one's different. It is a darker
lilac and has long sleeves, like a wizard's robe. Her hair
floated around her head as if she was suspended in water. She
clasped her hands and opened her eyes, staring at The Star
Collector] The Powers of my friends are with me, they will help
me to defeat you, Collector. You shall collect only your
departure ticket on the train from this reality... [she opened
her hands, revealing Sailor Sun's Star Seed] With the power of my
friend, Sailor Sun, I shall defeat you! I call upon the power of
the Shadow of the Sun! [there was a bright light and it
surrounded both Robyn and the Collector]
Queen Serenity [as she watched them disappear]
She... she gave everything... to protect her friends... truly a
brave and worthy soul... [she then forgot what had happened and
the timeline was restored... No one had ever heard of Bay, the
seer, or The Star Collector...]
* * *
[In a place where Reality is Fantasy, and Fantasy is Reality...
Robyn floats in front of a mirror]
Sailor Zephyr [whispering in Robyn's mind]
This is the Mirror of Truth, Kagemusha... It shows what is on the
inside, what you truly are. Look at your reflection now... after
battling The Star Collector, and restoring the proper timeline,
your soul is healed. Your Star Seed is safe, as is your friend...
Sailor Sun's. Look, Kagemusha. See what the Mirror of Truth
reveals...
Robyn [afraid, but opens her eyes]
I- I see... [she sees herself as a Princess from the Moon
Kingdom. As she was before. Nothing was different] me. There's
nothing different, Sailor Zephyr... I haven't changed... What are
you trying to say?
A Butterfly [fluttering in front of her]
You have always been this way. You expect too much of yourself,
Kagemusha. You care too much about what others think and cannot
seem to be happy. You must learn to believe in yourself. You have
taken a giant step in defeating The Star Collector, but to truly
believe in yourself, you must learn it on your own. I can now
return you to your own time with very little memory of the events
that have taken place. If I wipe your memory, you will be as you
were before, and there will be no point. I will give you a
choice, however. What do you wish to remember, Kagemusha?
Robyn [staring at Zephyr's Butterfly]
You. Your beauty and caring. I want to remember your help. I
never want to forget that.
The Butterfly [transforms back into Sailor Zephyr]
Very well... you will forget all that you have done in the past.
Your memories of this battle will be gone. Only Sailor Pluto, the
Council of 12, and I will ever know what happened, Kagemusha.
Live your life as best you can... and be happy... [she touched
Robyn's forehead and Robyn blanked out...]
* * *
[Voices from nowhere, yet everywhere... calling her name...]
Robyn? Hey... I think she's coming around... Amy!
Bay! Chill! You want to scare her!?
Ah, shut up, Serena!
Knock it off, both of you, this is neither the time nor the place to get into this!
Robyn [tries to speak]
Buh... Bah.... {"What's wrong? Where am I? Why can't I
talk?"}
Bay's voice [clearer now]
Robyn? Amy! She's trying to talk... get the nurse...
Robyn [trying to open her eyes]
{"Nurse?! Not the hospital... please not the
hospital..."} Baa...Buh... {"Spit it out, Damn
it!"} Bay!
Bay [taking her hand]
I'm right here, Rob. Hush now... You took quite a beating...
You'll be fine...
Serena [concerned]
What happened anyway?
Bay [shrugs]
I dunno... it's weird, I heard her yelling, and when I got there,
she was laying there, pretty beat up... three guys were running
away, but I didn't want to leave her alone... that's why I called
you guys...
Robyn [confused]
{"I was beat up? When?!"} [still trying to open her
eyes, but they feel like they're weighed down] Bay... where am I?
Bay [warmly]
You're in the hospital... you're safe, now... How do you feel?
Robyn [opening her eyes... finally]
Like I was hit with a Mack Truck... Did you get the license
number? [puts a hand on her forehead, and feels cuts and a large
bump] Nevermind... I think I have it here... oowww... [she puts
her hand on her chest, feeling something there] What's this? [she
lifts her head, weakly and sees a heart monitor] Why-?
Bay [pulls her hand from the monitor]
You've pulled that off while you were out about 5 times... leave
it alone... You were in pretty bad shape by the time I got there,
Rob. [sighs] Your dad's really upset... he thought he'd lost
you...
Robyn [looks at Bay]
Like Mom?
Bay [shakes her head]
Yeah, like your mom... He was really upset...
Robyn [A little relieved]
{"Mom's dead? Why do I feel better about that? It's like I
knew that, but had to ask... that was stupid..."} Well, if
he's here, tell him, I'll see him... if not...
Cyrus [runs over]
Robyn! Oh, Pumpkin, I thought I'd lost you! What happened?! Are
you ok?!
Robyn [totally shocked]
Dad... dad... I'm fine... could you not squeeze so hard... My
ribs kinda hurt... [she smiles, but feels a pain in her jaw]
Ow... is there any part that didn't get whupped?
Bay [smiling at her]
Your brain? I think they missed your feet too... [grins and walks
over] I'm glad to see you're up for a little joking... how about
some dinner?
Robyn [laughed a little, but she felt like her chest was on
fire when she did]
Oohh... it hurts to laugh... [looks at Bay and half smiles] You
and Serena I think are tied when it comes to food on the brain...
Bay [smirking]
Funny... you're definitely feeling better if you're making cracks
about me now...
Robyn [smiling]
I am feeling up to dinner... I'm really hungry... I could even
eat hospital food... [grins]
Serena [smiling]
Yeah... that stuff is disgusting sometimes... but I love the
desserts!
Rei [smacking Serena]
Ah, be quiet, Meatball Head! You'll eat anything that has sugar
as an ingredient...
Serena [rubbing her head]
I will not!
Bay [laughing]
You beat me on that, Serena... you do...
Serena [pouting]
I do not... could we drop it!?
Robyn [giggling, even though it hurt]
I like the fighting... I missed it...
Bay [looks strangely at Robyn]
Missed it?
Robyn [now looking strangely at Bay]
Yeah... [thinks for a moment, then sees the looks everyone's
giving her] Ah... Bay, can I talk to you alone for a minute?
Bay [shrugs]
Sure... [the others leave, looking at Robyn strangely as the walk
out. Bay pulls up a chair] What's wrong?
Robyn [seriously]
Bay? Tell me what's happened... I mean everything... I know this
sounds strange, but I want to know everything... something
doesn't feel right...
Bay [leaning up against the bed]
What do you mean?
Robyn
I... I think you know something more about what happened during
the past two years.
Bay [really nervous, remembering what the Council said]
Honestly, Robyn, I haven't a clue...
Robyn
Your not lying to me, are you?
Bay [deep swallow]
Have I ever lied to you? {"Or at least a lie that you know
of?"}
Robyn [signing]
No.... I guess not.
Bay
{"She bought it!"} Yeah....
Robyn
We're still friends right?
Bay [smiling]
Best buds.
Robyn [smiles and looks down]
What do you remember... I mean about the past two years?
Bay
Ah.... nothing. I just remember... waking up in the trash bin,
you?
Robyn [unsure]
{"She doesn't remember the timeline... I wonder..."}
Does Sailor Astid ring a bell?
Bay [frowns]
Yeah... she's been after us for awhile... something about a
wheel... We thought that's who attacked you... til we found the
switchblade one of the punks dropped...
Robyn
What about my mom?
Bay
What about her?
Robyn
You haven't seen her?
Bay
Only on your dresser.
Robyn
My dresser?
Bay
Yeah... that picture you have on your dresser.
Robyn [freaked]
What picture?!
Bay [confused]
The one of you and your dad at her funeral... with a little
wallet photo of her in the corner of the frame?
Robyn [looks out the window and sees a butterfly fly by... a
yellow and pink one]
{"I guess the timeline really was restored..."} [she
sighs] Oh...
Bay [concerned]
What's wrong?
Robyn
Nothing... [looks over] Bay? Have you ever heard of a Star
Collector?
Bay [worried about Robyn]
I think you better lay back down...
Robyn [shakes her head]
No... [smiles] It, ah, i-it was just a dream, then... [looks out
the window] What Council?
Bay [shocked]
Hunh?! {"Oh no..."}
Robyn [confused]
I saw something in a dream... A large grayish room. It was a
circle... with 12 shadowy figures... And a guy... I know I wanted
to help... but I can't move now...
Bay
{"Think quick..."} A dream, eh? With a boy. Maybe
you've got a crush on someone? [despirately tring to steer her
away] He go to school?
Robyn [seeing the panic]
You know something... Bay... What's wrong... I mean, it was too
vivid, and familiar... [hears a scratching on the glass, turns
her head] Aph! [smiling, she goes to move and jerks her head] OW!
Ah... Bay? [points] Could you?
Bay
Oh... Sure. [she gets up and opens the window to the room,
letting Aphrodite in]
Aphrodite
Robyn, you ok?
Robyn [hugs her]
I am now. [smiling] Could you answer-
Bay [not wanting to get on the topic again]
Rob?! Maybe you should just relax...
Robyn [confused]
Yeah... right... [lays back, and Aph lays on her] Aph? What
really happened? I'm sure of some things, and fuzzy on others...
Bay [smirking]
Well, getting whacked on the head will do that...
Robyn [smirking back]
Yeah... {"Angie..."} [giggles at the thought]
Bay
What's so funny?
Robyn
Nothing.
[A knock on the door and Amy pokes her head in]
Amy
Bay? The doctors say to let her rest.
Bay [looking at Amy]
Ok. [turns back to Robyn] Robyn, were going to go... but if you
need us, you know how to get us.
Robyn
Ok.
Bay [trying to be girl-like]
And when you get better, we'll go hunt down that boy in your
dream.
Robyn [smirks]
Oh, ha ha... Are you sure you didn't get smacked too?
Bay [smirks back]
Funny... get some rest... the window's open, Aph can leave then.
Bye... [turns and leaves]
Robyn [petting Aph]
Yeah... bye... [looks at her cat] Now that she's gone, can I talk
to you?
Aphrodite
Sure, what about?
Robyn [sighs]
A dream...
Aphrodite [confused]
Um, ok... what was it?
Robyn [staring out the window]
A large circular room, grayish... there were 12 shadowy figures,
a guy... and you. I was standing there and the guy is familiar...
I know him... I want to help him... I feel that he's being
treated unfairly. But I don't remember what... [looks back at
Aph] I know I can move, but I don't... I just stand there. I try
to talk, but nothing comes out. I try to reach out, I can't... I
feel helpless, but I keep trying... The boy is calling for me,
but all I can do is watch, and wish I could do something... Why?
...[she drifts off and stares at the window again, where the
butterfly sits on the open windowsill] [softly, almost silent]
Zephyr...
Aphrodite [half jokingly]
Sounds like you got a crush on someone.
Robyn
Not you too.
Aphrodite
Well, it sounds like it.
Robyn [sadly]
Yeah, some crush... I think he dies at the end... [frowns and
stares at the butterfly] Isn't it pretty?
Aphrodite [looks at the window, seeing nothing]
Ah... What? The sky?
Robyn [jerks her head]
Ow... No! The butterfly... you can't see it?
Aphrodite [worried]
I think the drugs are kicking in... I'll let you sleep... maybe
this time you'll go on a date with this boy... [smirks, grabs the
blanket with her teeth and tries to cover Robyn]
Robyn [confused, still seeing the butterfly]
You really can't- [sighs] Alright... I'll call if I need you
guys... bye, Aph...
Aphrodite leaps onto the window, and out of sight, saying]
Bye, Robyn!
Robyn [shocked]
She- she went right through it!?
