When Queen Beryl arrives for the Silver Crystal the Inner Senshi protect Serenity and Tuxedo Mask from Kunzite. Distracted while fighting Kunzite snatches Tuxedo Mask and takes him back to the Dark Kingdom.

When Sailor Venus mentions the light from the Silver Crystal was drawn into Tuxedo Mask's body, Queen Serenity tells Sailor Moon that the power of the Silver Crystal follows her heart. The Sailor Guardians head back to Earth just as morning arrives.

When Kunzite begins transforming Tokyo into a desert of ice, the Sailor Guardians arrive. Sailor Moon inquires to the whereabouts of Tuxedo Mask but Kunzite notices the Silver Crystal around her neck and goes to attack her but the Inner Senshi block the attack. Sailor Venus fights one on one to protect the Princess and the Silver Crystal with Kunzite. Sailor Venus begs Kunzite to stop, he is not the man she feel in love with.

Sailor Venus is reminded of the ruins of Silver Millennium. They use Sailor Planet Attack against Queen Metaria which she uses against them. The Inner Senshi lie on the ground helpless to stop the invincible Queen Metaria. They remember Usagi's smile, her strength and hear her words of encouragement and they know Sailor Moon is still alive. Sailor Venus summons the Sacred Sword. The Inner Senshi lack the strength to seal Queen Metaria and her darkness themselves but they can make the conditions right to give Sailor Moon the chance by using the power of their individual guardian planets and the energy generated when they transform. They throw their transformation pens, which is the same as throwing away their lives. Pens are not just for transformation they contain sacred powers each Guardians very life force, send them to Sailor Moon to help her by making the ultimate sacrifice.
