Ami: Mako-chan! How's Minako-chan?

Makoto: She's being checked out, but it looks a little worse than usual.

Ami: What?
...
Looks like it.

Makoto: And she’s also fainted before.

Ami: But I'll tell Usagi-chan that everything's okay.

Makoto: That's probably best. We might just be worrying too much.

Ami: And because Usagi-chan has other troubles...

*          *          *

Usagi: Exhaustion? Then, it was the same case as before.

Ami: Yes. If she takes a rest, I think she’ll be alright.

Usagi: Really. But I'll come too! Which hospital is it?

Ami: Ah—I think it's better to leave her alone today. We're going home too.

Usagi: Really...

Ami: Yes. Bye, then.

Usagi: Okay...Ah, tomorrow—

(beep beep)

Luna: Did they say that Venus is okay?

Usagi: Yeah. But there’s something [weird]...

Zoisite: Kunzite...Nephrite...Jadeite...return to the Master once more...

Jadeite: Master...

Mamoru: Zoisite...Jadeite, did you also hear Zoisite's last words?

Jadeite: But I—

Mamoru: I know. Nephrite's memories are not back either, and Kunzite...because he wanted to escape Beryl's grasp...

Kunzite: (roars)

Mamoru: The ones who are suffering are the Shitenno.

*          *          *

Mio: So there's no hope for Mamoru-kun. Things are getting boring!

*          *          *

Beryl: Queen Metalia, this planet is mine. I won't allow you to destroy it!

Youma at night....

Haruna: Hm... It is school day today, but as you can see, there are a lot of people who aren't here. I think that everyone knows about this, but a lot of people have suddenly become shell-like, right? That's the reason!

Class: (gasps and murmurs)

Haruna: Everyone be careful, okay?

Kanami: But we don't know what to be careful of!

Momoko: I'm scared!

Kanami: Scared!

Haruna: Okay, okay, I know how you feel, but calm down! Okay? Although I don't really know what you should be careful of either...

Usagi: It's not just Naru-chan. I must defeat the youma fast. I have to bring everyone back.

*          *          *

Usagi: Ami-chan, let's go visit Minako-chan!

Ami: Ah— Mako-chan is there. If we go in big numbers, we'll tire her out.

Usagi: Oh...Then, let's go to the Crown together!

Ami: I have some place I have to stop by today. Can you go ahead?

Usagi: Sure, but...By the way, how's Rei-chan?

Ami: I think she's busy at the shrine.

Usagi: I see...

Ami: Bye then.

Minako: Wonder if Jupiter and the others suspect something.

Artemis: You should just tell everyone the truth. They're your allies! That time, when you were together...

Minako: That was just me being tricked by Mars.

Artemis: Minako, let's have the operation.

Minako: Artemis.

Artemis: I can't stand seeing you like this anymore! You dying like this...

Minako: Feels like I'm getting a marriage proposal.

Artemis: Look, I'm serious! I think it's high time you valued yourself in the present, not the mission from the past life!

Minako: The present "me" will be gone soon.

Artemis: That's why if you take the operation...

Minako: When the probability of success is close to zero...

Artemis: But it's not zero. I know that you're scared to risk it, but...

Minako: I'm not scared, it's just it is not necessary to make risk like that.

Artemis: Why?

Minako: Artemis, if you don't have any intention of fulfilling the mission from the past, then you are the same as to Mars. I can't be with you.

Artemis: What?!

Minako: Get out.

Artemis: Why are you so stubborn?! Don't talk to me as Venus, talk to me as Aino Minako!

Minako: Aino Minako is someone who may be gone even as soon as tomorrow. But Venus will not be gone.

Artemis: What?

Minako: I'm disappointed, Artemis. That you would throw away the mission from the past life...Goodbye. (1)

Artemis: Minako!

Makoto: What you guys just said...

Minako: You heard?

Makoto: So it's true...

Ami: So...you knew all along. About Minako-chan...

Luna: That Artemis...He didn't say a word to us!

Rei: All she sees is the past life. The mission from the past. Even though she won't make it without taking that operation soon. Idiot.

Artemis: I agree.

Luna: Artemis!

Ami: What happened? Where's Minako-chan?

Artemis: When I told her to take the operation, I got kicked out.

Rei: She's such an idiot! The past life doesn't matter! She should just ignore it!

Ami: Maybe she can't just ignore it. And maybe we can't either...
