Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon Sailor Stars: Chaos Theory

Act 70: Galaxy Cauldron

Sailor Cosmos moves past Queen Kakyuu realizing the Queen will not be able to help her. She turns her focus to Maker and Healer who are still not providing any answers to Destroyer. "I need to speak with Seiya."

"That isn't possible right now... he'll likely be confined until the meeting. There is nothing we can do but wait. The Council... is very rigid." Maker tries to explain to Sailor Cosmos.

"Come on Usagi-chan, let's head inside for a little bit. After using your powers to heal everyone I'm sure you need to rest," Sailor Venus tries to distract her Queen. "You'll want to be rested for later." She quickly adds.

Sailor Cosmos numbly shakes her head in agreement realizing there is nothing she can do right now to fight against it.

Sailor Star Healer waits until Sailor Cosmos is far enough away before turning to Sailor Star Maker. "This is what we were trying to avoid by speaking with Queen Kakyuu first."

Sailor Star Destroyer is not as willing to leave as easily as Sailor Cosmos knowing how the Council works. "What happened? What did Fighter do?" She asks again demanding answers as Protector and Creator appear to her side.

Sailor Star Maker looks at Healer for a moment. It was not her place to discuss something like this. "It is rather complicated."

Sailor Star Destroyer's eyes narrow. She will not accept that as answer. "You must know something. I'm sure you were there when whatever it was happened."

Maker and Healer can't help but teardrop at Destroyer's statement.

Sailor Star Maker clears her throat. "I can assure you we weren't there when the incident happened."

Healer turns to Maker, "we should head inside too." She turns to the Queen's Guard. "You know there is nothing we can do now but wait until after the Council Meeting."

Queen Kakyuu knocks lightly on Seiya's door before she quickly enters. She knows doing this could put him in further jeopardy but she needs to speak with him. She has information that will help him.

Seiya looks up from the chair at his desk, shocked by his visitor. He quickly stands up. "Queen Kakyuu...?"

"I can only stay for a moment. I can't risk being seen here for too long before the Council Meeting." Queen Kakyuu speaks quickly. "I'm sorry. I fought to avoid all of this but Norio-san will not let go of his grudge against you, or any of the Starlights... with your unique abilities." It is no secret Norio hates Fighter, Healer, and Maker for their ability to become Starlights even though they are male. He found them harder to control than their female counterparts.

She continues. "I'm sure he has already tried to turn the other Council members against you." She warns. "But you must remind him of the mission which sent you to Earth. You were asked to protect Sailor Cosmos on her home world. From what I understand the rules that govern Kinmoku do not exist on Earth." She pauses. She quickly adds, "You will have to force his hand. Find a way to discuss the Queen that governs the senshi on Earth. The Council will use her word as law."

Seiya's heart beats faster. The loophole he had hoped for might be what saves him after all. "You mean?"

Queen Kakyuu nods her head in agreement. "He does not realize who Neo Queen Serenity is." She pauses as she heads back to the door. "I'm sorry you were dragged into this. But perhaps this hearing will be a way to update some of the ancient laws of this kingdom." Without another word, she leaves Seiya alone with his thoughts.
