Usagi awakens in Planet Nemesis, Black Moon's hideout. Prince Demande explains Black Moon's past as well as his intentions for Usagi's time. King Endymion states that Chibiusa cannot utilize the power of the Legendary Silver Crystal, and deduces that members of Black Moon are descendants of Death Phantom, an evil that Neo Queen Serenity sealed away on Nemesis long ago. Unable to transform due to Nemesis' influence, Usagi decides to cast aside her doubts and focus on her desire to protect others. Usagi's voice manages to awaken Ami, Rei, and Makoto before they are once again restrained by Demande. Meanwhile, Chibiusa struggles with thoughts of how her actions affected everyone and starts feeling lonely and confused. She ends up wandering into Wiseman's clutches and falls under his influence.
