Sailor Moon R Movie

fiornice.jpg (39080 bytes) This is Fiore. He is one of two major villains in the Sailor Moon R Movie. He was unwittingly part of the plan to exploit human energy. Early in his life, unaware of his heritage, and alone, he drifted to Earth in a thunderstorm. Mamoru, as a small child whose parents had been killed in a car crash, found him lying in the road and brought him to the hospital where he was being cared for. As Fiore heled, he became friends with Mamoru. Mamoru had no friends but Fiore. But Fiore's body chemistry was not compatible with the air on Earth. He had to leave. As Fiore was leaving to move on, Mamoru gave him a rose.

Needless to say, Mamoru's kindness, in the form of a rose, stuck in Fiore's head. He saw Mamoru crying, knowing he had no other friends in the world. He resolved to bring Mamoru a flower that would make him happy, and make all of mankind suffer for the outrageous injustice they had done to Mamoru.

kisenian.jpg (13904 bytes) This is Kisenian. She is small, but powerful, and more often than that, deadly. She attaches herself to a person with sealed up anger and a weak will, so that she can mold their mind to her dark purposes. When her influence infects one person, a whole planet can be overrun by Kisenian youma, and all the residents killed.
This is one of the Kisenian's seeds, which has flowered. It remains this way until it feels forms of energy, ready for draining, at which point, it sprouts legs and a torso emerges from the petals, to reveal a youma about 8 feet tall(below left). It then proceeds to drain the victims with its tentacle-like viles, which serve as arm appendages(below right). flower.jpg (33406 bytes)

Fiore found Kisensian on an asteroid, where an unidentified race deposited her there, to rid their world of her pestilence. She told him things he wanted to hear, so he picked her up. Kisenian quickly gripped his mind. Fiore returned to Earth to make mankind suffer for hurting his friend, Mamoru. As he arrived, he approached Mamoru and dealt with him in a friendly manner. . .too friendly for Usagi's taste. She interrrupted their conversation and said, "Mamo-chan's MY boyfriend." He raised his hand(-->), saying, "Go away,"and he knocked her down. fiore2.jpg (20493 bytes)
fiorepossessed.jpg (24595 bytes) Needless to say, this sparked a violent battle between the Inner Senshi and Fiore. Sailor Moon destroyed the youma and faced off with Fiore. However, Tuxedo Kamen stepped from a tuxedo rental advertisment and spoke to Fiore. It appeared as though Mamoru was getting through to Fiore's rational side, when Kisenian exerted her power and controlled him, making him attack Sailor Moon. However, Tuxedo Kamen took the attack for her, and became seriously wounded. Fiore abducted him and placed him in a crystal full of healing solution(Read: water). He talked to Mamoru and Kisenian's spirit appeared around him, showing that Fiore was under her control.
The Sailor Senshi teleported to Fiore's asteroid. They were attacked by hordes of Kisenian youma, with wings, not jointed legs. The senshi used all their attacks, and then Moon used Moon Princess Halation on the youma. They died quickly, and it appeared the senshi were winning. However, Fiore saw this and commanded the youma to retreat into one mass. They did so and covered the 4 Inner senshi, holding them hostage. Sailor Moon picked up her scepter, and started Moon Princess Halation, but Fiore threatened to hurt the Senshi more if she didn't drop the sceptre. The Inners urged Sailor Moon to forget about them and save the Earth, but Sailor Moon lost it and say, "I can't. Forgive me. I can't bear to see you hurt." teleport.jpg (13911 bytes)
fioreshocked.jpg (23591 bytes) Fiore was shocked at this apparent display of emotion, and his will to kill off the senshi diminished enough for the youma to disappear."Fiore? What's wrong? I'm with you." Kisenian saw her hold on him weakening, and began filling his head with BS again."Sailor Moon is a sneaky girl, trying to trick you so that she can take Mamoru from you." Fiore replied, "That's right. I won't be fooled again."

Kisenian imbued him with evil energy, wrapping herself around him(below left). With him completely under her control, he attacked Sailor Moon(below right), and drained her of energy, all the while babbling about how she could never know the kind of loneliness he had known, how her heart had never suffered as his had suffered. Just before death, he released her, letting her fall to the ground. The senshi protested, but to no avail: "DIE!!!" he called, and shot sharp vines from his body. A red flash, and a rose from a freed Tuxedo Kamen deterred the pointed vines with a rose in Fiore's chest

Fiore collapsed and the rose shattered the Kisenian 'power-up'. "Mamoru," he choked out, "are you abandoning me, too?" Tears escaped his eyes, and as he cried, the flowers died off, leaving only Kisenian alive. The meteor broke up, altering the trajectory toward earth.  Fiore chucked, again in Kisenian's grip. "That's right. . .we'te all going to burn up and die together!" Kisenian laughed and said, "How clever of you, Fiore. Even if you die, I'll live on to carry out your revenge."

Sailor Moon rose up and began to bring forth the ginzuishou. The senshi warned she would die, but Sailor Moon insisted she wouldn't. She was about to use the crystal when Fiore grabbed her locket. Sailor Moon cried out. "I can't let you. . ." he grated out. Sailor Moon touched his arm and comforted him. He moved his hand and saw the ginzuishou, in flower form. Tears welled up in his eyes, and they linked, Sailor Moon sharing a flashback from her past with him. fioregrabssm.jpg (19026 bytes)
usagiselenity.jpg (18390 bytes) The gist of the flashback was that Usagi had given Mamoru a rose to cheer him up because Fiore was leaving. Mamoru, in turn, gave the rose to Fiore to cheer *him* up. When Fiore realized that Sailor Moon had given Mamoru the rose, the flashback ends and he murmurs, "You are.  ." and that's all he can say. A shaft of light from the ginzuishou kills the Kisenian, and Fiore teleports out of there. Moon then becomes Princess Selenity.

From then on, you know the story. Save the senshi, die a little, Fiore sends a massive part of his energy(which is somehow equivalent to his age, because he reverts to a little kid), to Mamoru, thanks him and Sailor Moon for saving him, and floats off into space. Mamoru sips the nectar of the 'flower of life', which turns out to be Sailor Moon's lips, she wakes up, says, "I told you I'd protect you all." and we zoom out on lots of hugs and stuff.
