Usagi walks up some stairs with Mamoru while looking at the book in her hands, entitled "Scenery." "A photo book was a good idea!" she says, “The scenery at the hospital is so boring." Something in a store window catches Usagi's eye and she pauses to look at it while Mamoru walks on, oblivious. There's a star-shaped pocket watch in the window. The label under it says "Moon Phase." "Wow, this is really nice!" breathes Usagi. She turns to call Mamoru, who's walking away. "Hey! Look at this! Hey, Chiba-!" Finally, she just gives up and shouts, "HEY!"

Mamoru, as well as several other people walking on the street, turn around to look at her. Mamoru looks around, a pained look on his face, and then runs back to her, "What is it? How embarrassing!"

Usagi looks abashed. "I was just saying," she mutters, "I thought this watch was nice."

"You," sighs Mamoru, "why won't you call me by my name?"

Usagi is startled. "Huh? No reason."

"Don't tell me. You didn't forget, did you?"

"It's not that!"

"You couldn't read my name before," he reminds her.

"That was a long time ago!" she shouts back, indignant.

"Well, with you, it's possible," he remarks, exasperated. He leans over to look at the Moon Phase watch in the window.

"What is it with you?" demands Usagi, "Always making me look stupid! You don't understand my feelings at all!" She stomps away, leaving Mamoru looking after her, startled.

"What was that?" he asks out loud, and then looks at the store window again.

Usagi stomps her way over to a bench and then sits herself down, fuming. The Moon Phase watch suddenly is hanging before her face. "Huh?" She follows the chain up to see Mamoru holding it. "What's with this?" she asks as he places the watch in her hands.

"In return for the muffler," he says, sitting down next to her, "I hadn't given you anything in exchange yet."

"No way..." Usagi looks up at Mamoru's profile and smiles. She holds the watch tight in her hands. "Thank you!" She slowly rests her head on his shoulder.

 

"Endymion," breaths Beryl, "Once, no matter how hard I wished, I couldn't have him." She remembers a time in the Past; Endymion walks in his shining white armor and laughs when he sees Princess Serenity. The two of them laugh in delight as they run to each other and spin about. They lean in towards each other and Endymion turns his head to accept a kiss on the cheek. In the background, a girl with fiery red hair watches the happy couple. Fuming, she ducks behind the column she was watching from and bites her lip in frustration. "This time," Beryl vows, "I will have him!" She turns. "Princess, right before your eyes!

Mamoru is walking along by himself. Seeing something ahead, he stops.

It's Mio. Quickly blurring the gap between them, she appears before him, smiling.

"You..." Mamoru says menacingly.

"Come with me," Mio smiles, "Mamoru, your precious," her voice suddenly become low and sultry, "Shitenno are waiting." She smiles evilly as Mamoru looks at her, brows furrowed.

"He's coming. Endymion," Beryl says, "And the Princess."

 

Usagi's head snaps up and she stands suddenly, causing Makoto and Ami to look at her.

"Usagi, what's wrong?" asks Ami. "Someone's calling," she says, "I have to go!" She runs out of the secret room, Makoto and Luna calling after her. Makoto and Ami exchange a glance and quickly follow Usagi, with Ami pausing to scoop up Luna.

Rei jumps to her feet in her room, Teletia S to her ear. "Yeah," she nods, "I got it." She hangs up the phone in a flash and leaves in a hurry.

Usagi is running down the street with Ami and Makoto chasing after her.

Rei runs over a bridge.
