Chibi Usa has one true love - a man named Elios - the High Priest of
Mamoru/Endymion's kingdom, Elysion. When Chibi Usa first meets Elios
though, it is as a winged horse, a pegasus. Elios was captured and turned
into a pegasus by the evil Queen Nehelenia who wished to conquer Earth. To
do that, she had to conquer Earth's inner kingdom, Elysion.
To explain the story of Elios, Elysion and how he and Chibi Usa fall in love, it is best to go directly to the original source - the manga. It all began on a beautiful day where Usagi, Mamoru and Chibi Usa were at an amusement park. After some squabbling, Mamoru got both of his girls a kaleidoscope that they begged for. They were getting ready to walk back home when:
Usagi and Chibi-Usa turn around. "Help me... Maiden..." They see a winged, white horse, with a gold horn protruding from its forehead, among a grove of trees. "Help me... Maiden..." It begins to fade away. Usagi and Chibi-Usa's mouths hang open. |

At this point, the two females begin to argue on who was the maiden when
mamochan walks up and comments on the fact that he saw it - "Woods and a
white horse...." He then doubles over and starts to cough. What we later
learn is that Mamoru, as the Prince of Earth and his kingdom, Elysion, is
bound the Elysion Curse. Whenever something has harmed Elysion and its
High Priest, Elios, Endymion/Mamoru will feel the pain as well. In this
case, Elysion and Elios are slowly dying, and this is what is happening to
Mamoru.
Later, after 5pm, the trio decide that it's too dangerous for Chibi usa to
return to the 30th century that night so she should return the next day.
So for that night, Chibi Usa has one request of Mamochan. Next scene, we
see a happy Chibi Usa - the next translations are from Usagi and Mamoru.com - Do NOt Place
On Any Website. Diana is Luna and Artemis' future daughter and the
Amazoness Quartet become good and we learn they are Chibi Usa's future
guardians who were brainwashed by the evil Nehelenia.
Chibi-Usa chuckles as she looks into her hand mirror. She smiles as she
brushes her long hair. "Yay! I get to spend the night!"
"Yeah, mom?" Usagi says on the phone. "They gave us homework right away at
school today! So, I'm at Mako-chan's now. Yeah, yeah. I might be spending
the night. Bye." She hangs up. "All right! The coast is clear. Sorry,
mom... It is Chibi-Usa's last night, after all."
Chibi-Usa looks through her kaleidoscope. "Wow! There's all kinds of
stones inside it."
"These kaleidoscopes are pretty," Usagi says. "I've always wanted one of
these."
Both girls get a pillow in the face.
"Chibi-Usa!" Mamoru says. "You're getting up at five tomorrow. Hurry and
get to sleep." (He's such a stern father yet can be putty in the hands of
the two girls he loves most! :) )
"What!? Five o'clock!?"
"Usa! After a while, you'll have to go home, too. Have you lost faith in
me?"
"What!? I don't want to go!!"
Mamoru gets into bed with them. "Man," he says. "When I raise my daughter,
I'm really going to be strict with her."
"Oh, I wish I could be small like Chibi-Usa," says Usagi. "Being a kid is
great. You can depend on others without apology, and people indulge
you..."
"When haven't you depended on me without apology!" says Mamoru.
"What!?" says Chibi-Usa. "I'd like to be an adult! There's lots of things
you can't do as a kid. It only has disadvantages. Me, I want to hurry and
become a woman! Then, then, for sure, I can look at Mamo-chan as an adult
woman."
"What are you talking about," says Usagi. "You're his daughter!"
"Please, get to sleep!" says Mamoru.
They both stop talking.
Chibi-Usa looks at Usagi. "Really," she thinks, "I want to be like Usagi.
Her long, slender legs. Her full chest. Her soft, long hair. She's pretty.
I want to be like her too... Why am I going to be chibi forever..."
"Can't you sleep?" Usagi asks.
"It's going home tomorrow, isn't it," says Mamoru.
"Hey..." says Chibi-Usa. "Tell me a story. When I was little, mom would
often sit by my bed and tell me stories until I fell asleep."
"What kind of stories?"
"Stories of sunken empires in the sea, or the mysteries of the pyramids,
or cursed diamonds. Stories of robots, and vampires, and mirrors."
"Stories of mirrors?" asks Usagi.
"Well, on the other side of a mirror, another, pitch-black world exists.
So on pitch-black nights, of new moons, you can't look into a mirror.
Otherwise, you'll be drawn into the world inside it. It's an old European
legend."
Usagi looks across the room at a mirror, and sees it's black. She turns
over in bed. "Oh no! I can't look into mirrors at night anymore! Good
night! (Stupid Chibi-Usa.)"
Chibi-Usa falls asleep. Mamoru looks at her. "Chibi-Usa is more of the
adult," he says.
"Really, Mamo-chan?" Chibi-Usa thinks. "I really want to become an adult
soon."
The mirror is black.
We are then introduced to an old woman who stands inside the circus big
top, holding a cane. She faces 4 girls who reveal themselves to be the
"Amazoness Quartet". They are swearing to fight and get rid of anyone who
gets in the way of making their circus a success. One of them says
something about sealing a doorway tight and all vanish.
Chibi-Usa lies asleep in bed. She hears someone saying 'Maiden' and
replies back, yes, that's it. I really want to be a maiden. She then tuns
and sees a winged horse....at first it looks like a unicorn, then she
realizes it is a Pegasus. This Pegasus tells Chibi Usa that she carries
the dream of beauty and calls her a maiden. Chibi Usa is shocked that SHE
is the one being called a maiden. Pegasus tells her to ride on his back.
With some hesitation she finally gets onto his back and they soar into the
sky over Tokyo.
Chibi Usa is loving the flight but then notices that a certain part of
Tokyo is all black. Pegasus tells her that that dark place was the city
she was in until now - it was Juuban Shopping Center, and Chibi Usa asks
how it can be dark when everything else is so bright.
The Pegasus lands on the ground and asks Chibi Usa is the view of Tokyo
appealed to her. She replies with a yes and Pegasus says he'll lend her
his power again, and telling her to hold out her hand, places in it a
small bell. He tells her if she needs him, call him with the bell. She
then asks him:
"Who... are you?"
"I am the Pegasus, Elios. Maiden, you will surely gain strength. So
please, lend your strength to me. I want to save Elysion. I need the
Golden Crystal."
Chibi-Usa sees her parents.
"Dad? Mom?"
The Pegasus starts to fade away.
"Elios!?"
Chibi-Usa crashes to the floor in Mamoru's room. She opens her eyes. "...A
dream?"
"Are you all right, Small Lady?" asks Diana.
She sees the small bell beside her.
"It wasn't a dream..." She gets dressed and leaves.
Mamoru and Usagi get up.
"In my dream..." says Usagi.
"That Pegasus looked happy with Chibi-Usa..." says Mamoru.
"Mamo-chan, you had the same dream!?"
Mamoru grabs his chest.
"Mamo-chan!?"
"Uh..."
"What's wrong? Are you in pain!?"
"I'm okay," he says.
"Mamo-chan..."
"I have a stomach virus," he says. "I'm taking medicine. If it gets worse,
I'll go to the hospital."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"Mamo-chan? Really...?" she thinks. She sees a note on the floor.
"Mamo-chan, look!"
The note reads:
I'm going home by myself. Don't worry. I'll come to see you again. Bye.
