He spun her around on the dance floor, of the throne room in the Crystal palace. It was a private celebration of Chibiusa's completion of her sailor moon training. All their closest friends and their families were there as well. There was cheering and laughter that echoed through the room and music played rather loudly echoed off the walls.

Serenity and Endymion were on the dance floor, having fun as well. Endymion leaned close, stealing a kiss from his wife, who laughed at his roguishness and returned the kiss.

"I'm so happy she is home now. " She says to him while he spun her around.

He pulls her in and dips her, "I know love, I was worried for a moment but she's just like us isn't she?"

"yes a perfect heir for us." She wraps her arms around his neck and smiles a little as she kisses him again.

"Perfect child….want to try for another?" he nibbles on her ear. "Hmmm?"

She giggled, "Oh Mamo-chan, don't be silly…"

"Who says I'm kidding?"

"Mamo-chan!"

That's when they heard the lighting and thunder that pierced the sky that was once clear and sunny. The music stopped for a moment and everyone looked around and towards the tall grand windows of the solace room.

"Mama, papa, what's happening?" Chibiusa who looked around nine or ten came up to them in her pink princess dress. "Why did it get dark so soon?"

Her crimson eyes held the edge of fear as she asked the question. The Senshi were not far away. Ami, dressed in a pale blue gown hurried over to them. Minako was not far from them followed by the others.

"What's going on?" She asked her pale eyes looked from each face with concern.

Ami held the compact computer and typed furiously. "It seems that something has entered earth's atmosphere." She looked up at them. "Something…. that's landed in the Russia continent."

"What do we do?" Makoto, who had been chatting with her husband and had came over, asked.

Endymion took over this line in question, "Makoto, you, Ami, Rei and Minako go to that spot. I'll come with you. We'll try and see what has happened." He looked at the others, "you stay here and guard Usako and Chibiusa. Whatever that thing is it might be hostile."

They all nodded at his orders and went to carry them out. While they did that Serenity and Chibiusa reassured their guest that nothing serious had happened and told them to enjoy the part. Serenity's earth mother looked at her. She knew her far better then anyone. "Usagi," Ikuko said having never called her daughter 'Serenity', "Something's happened hasn't it? That's why they're rushing off?"

She looked into those reddish brown eyes and could not lie to her mother any more, "Yes…something has happened. We don't know what it is."

"Will it be….like before?" There was a worried note in the older woman's voice.

"I hope not mama…I hope not."


The icy land glowed softly from the light of the crash site. There was a line of scorched earth that led to a strange looking pod. A little red light flashed on and off on one side of the pod; around it the earth was still steaming in the cold tundra like air. A beeping sound was heard in the empty land and a soft sound came from the pod.

A small delicate had reached out from the pod and grasped the side of the pod.
