Queen Gala took another sip from her tea cup.
"I really have to apologize... but, you see... I was getting really desperate. Fashion Day is our most important holiday... and I couldn't bear the thought that my little darling Dala..." She threw her daughter an affectionate smile. "...would get no dress."
Dala sighed. She really didn't care that much about Fashion Day, but if her mother insisted...
"I'm curious about one thing," Jupiter spoke up. "Where are all the men? Until now, we've only seen female residents of Vyrx."
"Of course," the queen smiled. "That is... because there are no men on Vyrx. Our nation consists only of females."
"How can that be?" Jackie wondered. "If you don't have any males, how can you... um, you know... reproduce?"
"With cloning, of course," the queen said as if this was the most obvious thing in the world. "You see, there was once war between our race and the warrior race from planet Torrg. The nation of Torrg only consisted of men... and they were intent on subduing our people with force. So we had to defend ourselves... In the end, Torrg and its population got completely destroyed... But from that day on, I'm afraid most of our people developed an intensive hatred towards men."
Venus spoke up: "Um, no offense, but without men on your planet, I think you're missing something good." She chuckled. "So, does that mean your people never had, um, you know... sex?"
"Minako!" Artemis scolded her.
The queen and princess blinked in confusion. "Sex?" Princess Dala asked. "What's sex?"
Fred Frilly groaned. "Great..." he murmured under his breath. "I've been abducted by a tribe of virgins..."
Kasumi frowned and took a look at her amulet. Strange that the Virgo pendant found its way to a planet populated by virgins...
The princess looked like she wanted to say something, she fidgeted around and opened her mouth, just to close it again. Finally, she leaned over to her mother and whispered something into her ear.
Queen Gala listened, and finally nodded and smiled. She turned to her guests. "Well, I think my daughter likes your pretty uniforms, dears." She gestured towards the Senshi. "And she just asked me if it would be possible if we could use them as a base for our new dress on Fashion Day. Please... would you allow me to use them as a model?"
Makoto and Minako exchanged looks and grinned. Looks like the Senshi fuku found favor with the residents of Vyrx.
"Sure," Minako finally nodded. "But only if you can somehow get us back to earth."
----
Some time later, Jackie, Jade, Fred and the Senshi were waiting inside a room of the space port. Through a big window, they could see one of the amazon's big ships that was going to take them back to earth.
Jackie sighed. "I guess taking the amulet to the museum... or Section 13... is out of question, huh?"
Kasumi smiled. "I'm afraid so. You see, these amulets were created for the Zodiac Senshi as me... And only the reincarnated versions of the original Senshi can use them."
"You have to tell me more about this 'reincarnation' stuff some time," Jade said. "But for now, I'm satisfied with today's adventure."
She held up one of the Talismans. "And when the time is right, I'll show you the cool powers of the other Talismans."
"Oh no, you don't," Jackie said in a stern voice. "Jade, give them back, they don't belong to you."
Jade giggled and blew a raspberry. "Come and get me first," she shouted and activated the Rabbit Talisman!
Jackie ran after his high-speed-niece. "Jade, come back here right now!"
