“I’m sorry.” Lance whispered. “But I can’t let you do this to me.”

Madness sparkled in amber eyes. “You cannot stop me.” The Princess smirked, holding the Crystal aloft. “I wish for the power of the Silver Crystal to be thus – let Sailor Neptune fall in love with me!”

“No!” Lance cried, even as the blinding waves of white energy tore at her. She screamed as her fins shattered, staining her fuku and silversteel armor with blood. She fell to her knees, unable to bear the pain, but knowing that she would never, ever love Ashline. Her only love was for Red… Uranus…

She was already unconscious by the time Ashline realized what she had done and called frantically for Healers.

Somewhere along the border, Red felt a shiver of fear run down her spine.

Neptune…
