"Ami might have called the meeting, but I am the one should talk about this topic," Setsuna said.
Usagi asked, "What topic?"
Setsuna closed her eyes and began, "It's about the three groups of robots that hvae shown up on the news recently. Autobots, Decepticons, and the Mini-cons."
Rei waved her hands back and forth in front of her. "We have nothing to do with giant robots. That would get us killed."
Ami shook her head and looked upwards sadly.
"Actually we do have something to do with those robots. During the time of the Silver Millenium, some Mini-cons were awoken and helped Queen Serenity out," Setsuna explained. "At the time, there was a problem with several Youma. As the battles progressed, an aincent transformer who was on Earth before the Mini-con ship landed showed up and talked to Queen Serenity. He broke off a piece off of his Matrix and gave it to the Queen. That fragment is known as the Silver Crystal."
"What?!" was the chorused cry of seven girls and two cats.
"Y-you mean t-there's an object even more powerful than the Silver Crystal?" Minako asked.
Setsuna nodded. "Yes. But, there's more. Eight of the Mini-cons voulenteered for a process to help the Silver Millenium out. The eight houses serving Serenity also agreed. The Aincent One merged a princess of each house with a Mini-con. After the merger, the princess gained the Senshi powers."
"B-but that means that w-we're...," Makoto stuttered.
Setsuna quickly switched into her robot mode and then back. "Yes. It means we are Mini-cons. The Decepticons are here to capture and enslave all Mini-cons. That includes us. Artemis and Luna will have to awaken those memories now."
Hotaru sighed, "I was hoping that I was wrong."
Setsuna gave a short laugh. "I guess you would have, since after your second rebirth you watched a replay of the universe's history. You know how to change to your Mini-con form don't you?"
Hotaru grew to the heighth she was when she was Mistress Nine and sighed. "Yes. I saw it. There's no way to avoid this, is there?"
Setsuna shook her head in denial. "The minute the Decepticons set foot on Earth, the Time Gate's ability to travel into the future and past shut down."
Usagi asked, "What about Chibi-Usa?"
"I don't know if there will be a Chibi-Usa. That brings up another point though. When Queen Serenity used the Silver Crystal to send all of you forward, it altered you as well."
Usagi looked confused. "What are you talking about?"
"The Senshi Forms are powered by Mini-cons. What happened is that the Silver Crystal altered your body and gave you the same abilites as the rest of us. You have an alternate Mini-con form as well."
Usagi paled and shrank back. "Wh-what about Mamo-chan?"
"Prince Endymion? Don't know. He had powers before the fall of the Silver Millenium. His powers have weakened, since his rebirth. Could go either way."
Turing the Mercury Computer to face everyone, Ami piped up. "I think it would be a good idea to know who and what our Mini-con alternates are. Mine is Snowdrift who turns into a snowmobile."
Ami showed each file.
Sailor Venus Minicon:Fasttrack Vehicle:Formula-1 racecar
Sailor Mars Minicon:Burnout Vehicle:F-16 Fighter
Sailor Jupiter Minicon:Airshow Vehicle:Harrier Jumpjet
Sailor Saturn Minicon:Skyrider Vehicle:Space shuttle
Sailor Uranus Minicon:Trencher Vehicle:Bulldozer
Sailor Neptune Minicon:Deepdive Vehicle:Submarine
Usagi said, "What about me?"
Pluto sighed. "We'll find out when you first transform. Luna and Artemis, it's time to awaken those memories of the Senshi."
The two cats nodded somberly and fired beams of light from their foreheads. Artemis handled Minako, Haruka, and Michiru. Luna handled Rei, Makoto, and Ami. Setsuna walked up and put a hand on Usagi's shoulder.
"Since you were changed into one, you'll have to be taught. There are no memories for them to bring forth," Setsuna said.
Usagi numbly nodded.
