Queen Nehellenia makes a desperate last stand as the Golden Crystal destroys the Dead Moon Circus.
Summary
The city of Tokyo gets saved by the Golden Crystal and the Dead Moon Circus becomes destroyed. Helios and the four Sailor Senshi are unconscious, but Sailor Moon wakes up to see that Sailor Chibi Moon has been taking away by Queen Nehellenia. Sailor Moon goes after her as the remains rise up from the ground. Sailor Moon realizes that the whole place is being drawn to the new moon and Nehellenia realizes that because Sailor Chibi Moon has the Golden Crystal in her hand, she will be sealed away in her mirror. Sailor Moon reaches the end of a long stairway and hears Nehellenia screaming. Sailor Moon goes shocked to see that Queen Nehellenia has turned into an ugly old hag. Nehellenia suddenly recognizes Sailor Moon as the reincarnation of Princess Serenity and claims she always watched over her kingdom with envy.
Nehellenia then tells a story to Sailor Moon that she was adored by her retainers and loyal subjects for her beauty, so much that Nehellenia herself believed she would be young and beautiful for all eternity. As she goes to the mirror to see if her dream of everlasting beauty will come true, her image fades revealing her ugly old appearance, she goes horrified by this as her room shrouds up with cobwebs to her point of view. Suddenly, Zirconia's voice is heard within the mirror saying the same chant that the Amazoness Quartet said ("Never ever forget to remember, a child's dream is a dream of dreams"). Nehellenia follows this and becomes evil releasing all her fears and how Zirconia came to be. She then suddenly takes away all the Dream Mirrors from her loyal subjects turning them into Lemures and devoured them which made her immortal. She then decided to live her life alone among the Lemures.
After finishing her story, Nehellenia then explains that they are rising toward the new moon so she can be sealed away, as she realizes it was the only way to remain beautiful. Sailor Moon, who shows pity, ask if she really is going to live alone forever. Agitated by this, Nehellenia attacks as a Zirconia figure lunges out from her and begins choking Sailor Moon as a result for depriving her beauty. But Sailor Moon makes the Zirconia figure stop as she looks on with pity. Nehellenia looks away and demands her to stop and does not want any sympathy from her. Nehellenia then grabs Sailor Chibi Moon and tosses her off the crumbling remains. Sailor Moon cries at this and Nehellenia taunts her saying that she lost everything she loved. But Sailor Moon climbs up and yells to Nehellenia that she will never lose to her and jumps off after Sailor Chibi Moon.
Believing she won, Nehellenia celebrates her time alone and becomes sealed up in her mirror restoring her youth before soaring into the new moon. Sailor Moon falls as fast as she can to catch up with Sailor Chibi Moon. The sun shines in the sky and Sailor Moon becomes Princess Serenity and catches Sailor Chibi Moon just in time. Usagi begs for Sailor Chibi Mmoon to wake up or they will lose their future and dreams. Sailor Chibi Moon finally wakes up and agrees to dream together. Helios regains consciousness and becomes Ppegasus and saves them by giving them wings landing to safety in the city.
Helios meets with Mamoru and the Inner Senshi at the park to say his goodbyes to them. Usagi drags Chibiusa to Helios, who kisses Chibiusa's hand as a thank you. Rei, Mako and Minako see this and become jealous. As they loom closer, a voice screams out that there is a UFO distracting them long enough for Chibiusa to hug Helios in tears. The Amazoness Quartet happily watch as they begin to start a new life with themselves and hoping they will see Usagi and her friends again. Helio turns back to Pegasus and flies off. Chibiusa then run after him crying out that she never got a chance to tell him her own dreams. But Chibiusa becomes happy hoping to see him again as the sky lights up with Aurora Borealis.
