Act XXII:
Mission: Ryo's RescueMegumi went out her house. In the garden was a note.
You'll better go to the Andromeda's observatory or your precious Ryo will die. Bring your "Pandora’s box". Sincerely...
Nereid
Nereid has trapped Ryo?
Megumi ran to Rika's house.
Rika: Bye Mom!
She made a step and...
Megumi: Rika!!!
Rika got a sweat drop and fell in the ground.
Megumi: Are you Ok?
Rika: Yeah, just don't shout at me like that... What’s up?
Megumi: Nereid has trapped Ryo...
Rika: She has seen you love him...
Megumi: Shut up, Rika.
Both girls ran to the Andromeda observatory. In front of it was a statue of an enchained Andromeda.
Megumi: Thinking that my name comes from this woman, who suffered so much...
They entered and founded a dimensional door in there.
Rika: Nobody has come here for a long time.
Suddenly, they saw three figures near.
Rika: We'll better transform now... Before they see us...
Megumi: Andromeda's Lost Senshi Power, Make-up!
Rika: Pandora’s Friendship Power, Make-up!
Sailor Andromeda got near the three figures. She recognised Midori, Poseiotto and Aigyou.
Megumi: Shouldn't you three be at school?
Poseiotto: No, Meg.
Midori: We'll stay with you and Rika.
Megumi: You know I'm...
Aigyou: We have just seen you transforming...
Poseiotto had blushed.
Poseiotto: Really nice!
Meg blushed.
Midori: Have you got a problem?
Megumi: Yes... Ryo has been captured.
Aigyou: We'll help you!
Poseiotto: We don't have powers as you do but we can give you our support...
Rika: Great, we'll go then!
A yellow dimensional door opened.
Megumi: We'll better go...
The five kids entered the door and appeared in a green prairie full of yellow daisies.
Megumi: My favourite flowers...
She kneeled to touch them, when Midori grabbed her hand.
Midori: Don't touch them...
She took out a ring and threw it to the flowers. They ate it. Meg and Rika couldn't believe it.
Rika: How did you know?
Aigyou: That technique was taught to us...
Poseiotto covered her mouse.
Poseiotto: It's obviously a trap, all this place must be dangerous...
Rika: Well, I'll destroy all of these... Pandora’s Ribbon Surprise! Attack!
The daisies were all killed...
Megumi: Poor flowers...
Nereid appeared. A wind made everyone's hair fly. She stared at the three Kai kids with shiny eyes, as they looked at her.
Nereid: You have brought friends... It doesn't matter. You must get into my cell before noon or I'll kill Ryo...
She disappeared.
Midori: An obvious trap...
Poseiotto: She'll try to kill us in the way...
Megumi: But I must save Ryo... He hasn't done anything...
They continued walking in the deserted garden.
Rika: This garden is so sad...
Hey you are the one that destroyed the flowers...
Rika: I heard that!
Megumi: I haven't talk!
Rika: But you thought that!
She can read my mind?
Rika: Yeah, I can read you mind! I don't know how... But, it doesn't matter, the flowers were evil!
Megumi: But beautiful...
And now she starts with the everything-has-the-right-to-live thing...
Megumi: Shut up!
Rika: You heard that?
Megumi: Now I see you always have had bad thoughts about me!
Rika: You too!
Megumi: I'll save Ryo by myself!
Rika: Go then!
Rika turned and walk back. Megumi continued walking.
Midori: Stop you two!
They both turned.
Aigyou: Aren't you seeing what Nereid is doing?
Poseiotto: She has given the ability to read each other mind to make you fight!
Midori: You are friends...
Aigyou: Don't destroy the beautiful gift of friendship...
Megumi stared at Rika. Rika seemed sad.
Megumi: I'm sorry Rika...
Rika looked at her arrogantly.
Rika: ... Me too.
Meg jumped and hugged her.
Megumi: I'll never fight with you again!
Rika blushed.
Midori: We'll better continue...
They continued walking. Nereid stared at them from a yellow window.
Nereid: Medusa, Amphitrite and Poseidon continue helping them.
Oceanus appeared from her back.
Oceanus: Want some help?
Nereid: No! I'll prove you I'm not longer a child and I'll destroy Sailor Andromeda!
Oceanus: You know her secret identity and haven't tell Lady Witch Carriet... Sailor Andromeda is Megumi Mayo…
Nereid: You didn't stop our siblings when they escaped... I know you are twice faster than they are. You didn't catch them because you didn't wanted to.
Oceanus blushed.
Nereid: I won’t tell our Lady if you don't tell her Sailor Andromeda's identity...
Oceanus turned back and left. He got in a green chamber. He took out his black cape, the same colour of his pant. He wore a green commander coat with a golden star in the centre. He had some medals in his shoulders and a black string as Poseidon with his green Crystal. His cape was hang by three pins in each shoulder. He had a black band on his head.
He stared at a picture of a beautiful woman. Her hair changed from red on top to yellow in the end, passing the green, blue and purple.
Oceanus: Mother... Am I doing the right thing?
Nereid took out some playing cards.
Nereid: Time for a story... Andromeda in Wonderland!
Megumi turned as she heard something. She saw a white rabbit running from her.
Megumi: Rika... What is a Rabbit doing here?
Rika turned.
Rika: I have no idea...
Suddenly, the Rabbit disappeared and the Queen of Hearts appeared, gigantic, of course.
Midori: Nereid is having a cool idea...
The Queen turned to life.
Queen: Cut off their heads!!!
Lot of cards appeared and followed them.
Rika: Run for your lives!!!
Nereid laughed in the floor.
Nereid: The Queen of Hearts! "Cut off their heads." Ha!
Megumi stopped and turned.
Megumi: Rika... We must fight...
Rika imitated Meg.
Rika: Yeah...
Megumi: Crystal Moon Attack!
Rika: Pandora’s Ribbon Surprise! Attack!
The cards flew away. Nereid raised.
Nereid: They destroyed my cards!
Megumi and Rika joined the Kai kids.
Rika: Easy...
Midori pointed something. Megumi screamed.
Megumi: That's Ryo's cell!
She ran fast. Everyone followed her. Megumi hold the bars.
Megumi: Ryo!
He opened his sleepy eyes.
Ryo: Sailor Andromeda?
Megumi: Ryo, you are safe...
Ryo: I had just walked two steps out my home when a blonde girl grabbed my arms and put me to sleep... Where are we?
All reached them.
Midori: In Commander Nereid's world...
Poseiotto: Andromeda, use your power to open a dimensional door...
Megumi: Power of Andromeda, open us a door!
A purple door appeared and the six of them jumped out. Ryo fainted as the shock of the dimensional change reached him.
Megumi: Poor Ryo...
Nereid appeared.
Nereid: Poor you!
She shot a ray, which got Rika.
Megumi: Rika!
Rika: Don't worry Meg, Pandora’s Ribbon Surprise!
It reached Nereid, who screamed.
Megumi: Crystal Moon Attack!
Nereid fell in the ground of the observatory. She sort of walked to a wall and hid her head in her hands. Megumi and Rika went to her.
Megumi: You kidnapped Ryo!
Rika: You have done so much things...
Megumi: You...
Midori and Aigyou jumped in front of Nereid.
Both: No!
Megumi: But... why?
Midori: She's our sister... I'm Medusa...
She transformed and Aigyou and Poseiotto too.
Poseidon: Please, she's too young...
Megumi: We won't kill her, even if she weren't your sister... We can't kill...
Nereid smiled unbelieving.
Medusa: Let's transform back!
Everyone got his or her human forms, even Nereid become Nerai.
Next day Ryo walked by Megumi’s side.
Ryo: ...and then she opened a dimensional gate... Sailor Andromeda is incredible...
Megumi: I think so...
Rika walked and hit a boy.
Rika: Ouch!
Boy: Sorry.
Rika stared at his green hair and light green eyes. He walked away. Rika, blushed, joined Meg and Ryo.
Rika: Meg, I have just met a wonderful guy... but I didn't ask him his name!
Megumi: Oh, Rika!
Ryo: Um, are you interested in him, Meg?
Megumi: Of course not Ryo, of course not...
It's sort of enough to love two boys, so I'm not looking for a third one... Now my only problem must be the appearance of the last sea Child… The eldest brother.
