Prologue:
---This isn't really taking place in any particular season of sailormoon, though if I chose a remote time, I'd have to choose right before the Star Series. It starts off in the 30th century, the time when Rini is still a young, 900 year old girl, (according to the manga) living in the palace with the future King and Queen of Crystal Tokyo.
A young girl crept down the corridor of the palace, peering around every corner before making her way down that hallway. She did this quite often, mostly when she felt the need to speak with Sailor Pluto, the guardian of the Gateway of Time. Even though the young one knew her visits were strongly forbidden, she continued, for she felt special to Pluto, and no one else seemed to notice her, or give her the time of day that Pluto did. But as the youth placed her hands on the door, and peered inside, this time the fog was thicker than ever. Creeping in she mumbled, "P-Pluto?" Glaring around the room she fidgeted with one of her pink yams, and puffs that she called hair. Suddenly she heard a scream, and she backed against the door. After a moment, Pluto emerged from the fog, and knelt in front of the girl, "Small Lady, you must never tell of what you saw, I cannot talk tonight, I'm sorry . . . please forgive me, but I have urgent business to address to your mother . . . and as you know . . . " Small Lady shook her head, and interrupted, "It is forbidden . . . " Pluto gave a grim smile, and escorted Small Lady from the room.
Snuggled beneath her blankets and clinging to a present she'd received from Pluto, named Luna P, Small Lady, or Rini, stared out of her window. "Who was that woman that screamed . . . ?" She thought. Her eyes showed sorrow, as the next thought crossed her mind, "Pluto didn't . . . hurt someone did she?" She heard the door open, and her eyes widened, but as she felt a warm hand run through her hair, and a slight sink in her bed, she knew it was her mother, Neo Queen Serenity. "Dear, things may get a bit hectic around here . . . someone's been knocked into the Time Gate Mommy may have to fight . . . but you know what to do if anyone were to get into the castle . . . right?" Rini nodded, she'd heard the directions too many times before. Serenity smiled and bent down, kissing Rini's cheek. "My brave little girl . . . "
----Meanwhile----
"Uh . . . where . . . am I?" A woman, appearing in her early twenties, stood up, rubbing her head. Her tan skin made her golden hair appear to glow, and her eyes were unusual, her right being orange, the left being yellow. Blinking a few times, she looked around. The hustle and bustle of people on their way home, to work, and everywhere else in between. The woman gave a questionable look, and shielded her eyes from the rays of the bright sun. A man, just standing in the center of the crowd, appeared to be smiling at her. She gasped, somehow knowing she was to follow him, but as she made her way through the people, he made his way from her view. "Wait!" She tried to shout, but all that came out was a raspy breath. The girl stumbled a bit, holding her forehead, and finally leaned against the side of a building, sinking down to the ground, gasping a bit. By now the heat began taking a toll on her, and she broke a sweat. "How long have I been out here? Where am I?" She gasped, and glanced to her hands, "Who. . . am I?"
