The Dragon and the Senshi Prologue

In a place where time does not transcend, somewhere between the past, the present, and the future, lies the Gate of Space and Time. A portal that few know of its existence and even fewer are aware of how it can be used.

This gate is guarded by one individual. The Soldier of the Afterlife and Guardian of Time, Sailor Pluto. The daughter of Chronos, a woman who has lived many lives, seemingly immortal as she has always remained loyal to her post as the Gatekeeper in the years to pass.

Now, that guardian stands in front of the gate, observing the planet Earth and specifically one blond haired teenager that lives in the country of Japan.

"Sailor Moon." She whispered as the girl is seen attending a class at school, or rather sleeping on her desk.

"The princess has managed to defeat the forces of darkness and stop the evil from covering the world two times so far, stopping enemies from the past and the future."

"However-" She added as the image switches to one of five girls clad in sailor outfits fighting what looked like a female demon. "This time the enemy is stronger. Sailor Moon almost lost the Silver Crystal during their first encounter with a Daimon. If not for Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune's interference, this would not end well."

The guardian of time started to move as she approached the gate.

"The Outer Senshi are not willing to work together with the Inner, instead focusing on their own mission." She said, this time with a slight tint of worry in her voice. "But Sailor Moon and the rest will need assistance in the battles to come."

"I can understand your distress, Pluto." The guardian heard as she turned to see a blond haired woman. Her hair, although being tied in two buns which extended to pigtails, reached the ground, and she was wearing a pink strapless dress which toned her perfect figure.

"Neo-Queen Serenity." The guardian of time made to bow, but the queen stopped her.

"Please, Pluto, there is no need for formalities." Serenity said with a kind smile.

"Apologies, my queen. I'll probably never get used to informality." Pluto admitted as she stood up.

"I understand." The blond haired woman said, smiling with a tone of sadness before her expression grew sharper. "I know the source of your worries, Pluto. It bothers me as well."

The Soldier of the Afterlife turned serious again, her eyes meeting the queen's.

"I can't leave the Gate of Time and Space, not yet at least. And even with Sailor Moon's new transformation, I can't help but have doubts about the Senshi's success." She said as she touched the gate.

"I have a solution to that, though it may collide with the Taboo." Serenity said as Pluto perked up.

"The Taboo?" Pluto asked as Serenity nodded.

"We could send someone else to assist the Senshi, someone strong enough to combat this new threat." The queen said.

"Someone else?" Pluto wondered, confusion evident on her face. "I don't understand. Is there a warrior on the solar system that can really assist the Senshi?"

Serenity smiled as she extended her hand towards the orb that Pluto was observing earlier, causing it to glow.

"Behold, my dear Pluto." She urged, as the guardian of time approached the orb. Her eyes widened when she saw a rose haired teenager using fire to combat a taller man who used lightning.

"This man is from another dimension!" Pluto exclaimed as Serenity nodded.

"His father is an acquaintance of mine. He already agreed with this, should his son accept this quest." The queen informed Pluto, who looked more closely.

"I know this man, I've seen him before." The guardian noted as the teen let a dragon-like roar.

"You have seen him in your visions. Is that right?" Serenity said as Pluto nodded.

"I see. Maybe he can actually help us. However, what should I do if he does decline our request? We can't let someone from another realm know about all this." The Soldier of the Afterlife said with doubt in her voice.

"I wouldn't worry about that, Pluto. I know that he is an honourable young man. He will surely accept." Serenity said as she starting walking back to the gate.

"If you are not sure of what to do, just pay him a visit and see the kind of person that he is." The queen added before she vanished, leaving Pluto alone in her thoughts.

'So it is him after all?'


"ACHOO!" Natsu sneezed before he got punched by a random Fairy Tail mage.

"Natsu has been sneezing for some time now." Lucy said with concern as she looked at the guild's usual brawls.

"Aye. He probably got a cold." Happy said while munching a fish.

"You bastard!" The fire dragon slayer shouted as he jumped back and punched his fellow guildmate with such force, that the mage flew all the way across the guild and to the face of an extremely annoyed iron dragon slayer.

"What's that, Salamander? You wanna fight?" Gajeel said as he lashed at his fellow dragon slayer.

"That's for before, you Iron Head!" The rose haired teen said and the two dragon slayers met in the middle of the hall.

"They really enjoy fighting each other, don't they?" Wendy noted as she sitting at the bar next to the blonde while drinking some juice.

"What do you expect from those two knuckleheads?" Charle said with a nonchalant expression.

"Now, now, you don't have to be hard on them, Charle. Everyone likes a good fight every now and then." Mirajane, the beautiful barmaid and S Class mage of Fairy Tail, said while wiping an already clean glass.

"It can get pretty annoying at times though. Especially when good booze is wasted." Cana said before downing a pint of beer.

"Cana is right, they should learn some disciple eventually." Erza said while eating a piece of cheesecake. Suddenly, a table was sent flipping at the redhead, which resulted in the cake falling to the floor and Erza staring at the "carnage" in shock.

"My- my cake!" The requip mage stuttered as Lucy's eyes widened.

"Uh oh." The blonse said, taking a step back as the redhead started emitting a devilish aura.

"Who's responsible for that?" She shouted as she joined the fray, knocking out mages with each strike.

"You finally joined the brawl, Erza! I've been waiting for you!" Natsu shouted as he dashed towards the redhead.

"We are still not done, you bastard!" Gajeel shouted when he realized that Natsu ditched him.

"Was it you, Natsu?" Erza said as she turned to the rose haired mage, who let his guard down in confusion, resulting in getting uppedcutted out of the guild.

"Wait, what did I do?" The dragon slayer's voice echoed as he disappeared in the distance.

"Erza-san can be pretty scary sometimes." Wendy said.

"That's an understatement." Lucy deadpanned. Soon the brawl was over due to Erza's interference.


The night had fallen in the city of Magnolia as the shops started closing for the day. The sky was clear and a sense of serenity was all over the place. That serenity was abruptly disturbed when a certain dragon slayer crashed to the ground.

"Ouch! Damn, that Erza has a strong punch." Natsu said as he slowly crawled out of the crater that was formed from the impact. The fire dragon slayer dusted himself as he looked in the distance.

"Boy, did she sent me far. And she thought that I did something to her?" The rose haired teen said before he rubbed his stomach. "I wonder if Mira is busy. All that brawling made me hungry."

Suddenly his eyes widened, and his enhanced hearing picked up a faint whispering.

"Who's there?" The dragon slayer said as he turned around to see an empty street.

"Must have been my imagination." Natsu blinked as he turned to leave when he heard the whispering once again.

Natsu.

'There it is again.' The rose haired teen thought as he turned around and started running down the street. 'It's getting stronger.'

It was clear now that someone was calling him. The voice, though strange, sounded familiar to the dragon slayer, and he sped up, eventually finding himself outside of Magnolia, in the west forest.

'The voice is gone. What's going on here?' Natsu thought while looking around the forest. The dragon slayer continued searching for quite some time until he caught up a familiar scent.

"Natsu! Where are you?" He heard as he looked up to see his feline friend Happy.

"Happy! I'm down here!" The rose haired teen called so that the blue cat can hear him. The Exceed noticed his partner and he descended to meet him.

"Where have you been, Natsu? Lucy and Wendy were worried after Erza beat you." Happy said once he reached Natsu.

"Hey! She didn't beat me! It was one lucky punch and, as you can see, I'm perfectly fine." The rose haired teen said while pointing at himself.

"It's been more than two hours since Erza kicked you out, Natsu. Everyone expected you to just barge in shortly after and be back at it." The blue Exceed said while shrugging.

"And I would have come right away but then I heard something." Natsu retorted, muttering the last part.

"Something?" Happy looked curious as he kept flying around the rose haired teen. Before Natsu could reply, he heard his name again.

"There it is again!" He said as he abruptly turned, noticing Lisanna and her older brother Elfman.

"Hey, Natsu! Happy!" The white haired girl happily waved at the pair.

"Lisanna!" Happy exclaimed with excitement as he flew straight to his mother figure's open hug.

"Yo, Natsu. What are you doing out here?" Elfman asked.

"I was looking for something... but never mind that, let's go to the guild." Natsu quickly responded, something that didn't go unnoticed by Lisanna.

"Is everything okay, Natsu? You look restless." The white haired girl noted with concern.

"Everything's fine." Natsu said with a grin. "I'm just thinking that you two must be tired from the mission."

"True men never get tired." Elfman proudly said, making Lisanna giggle.

"At any rate, Natsu is right. It's getting late too." The white haired girl said as the four mages made their way to the guild.

Unknown to them, a figure was observing the Fairy Tail mages.

'Natsu Dragneel huh?'


"Natsu."

"…"

"Hey, Natsu."

"…"

"NATSU!"

The rose haired snapped out of his reverie, which resulted in him falling from his stool face first.

"Why are you yelling at me, Lucy? I'm right in front of you." Natsu said as he got up while rubbing his forehead.

"Because she's been trying to get your attention for quite some time, you idiot. Did you finally burn what's left of your brain?" Gray said with a smirk.

"What was that, Popsicle? And when did you get back anyway?" Natsu asked with a mix of annoyance and confusion.

"I've been here before you returned with Elfman and Lisanna." Gray replied, the smirk turning into a frown. "Now I'm really worried about your brain."

"Will you stop talking about my brain? I'm just thinking, that's all." The rose haired teen said, surprising most of the mages who were around.

"Did Natsu just admit to thinking of things?" Macao asked in disbelief.

"I see age hasn't made you more eloquent, my friend." Wakaba snarked.

"Our Natsu is acting like a grown up." Cana sluggishly said as she wrapped her left arm around the rose haired teen's neck.

"I think you had more than enough booze for today, Cana." Lisanna sweatdropped, while Elfman vividly nodded.

"A man doesn't get dizzy by alcohol. He is the one who makes the alcohol dizzy." The white haired man said, nodding more emphatically.

"How can you do that?" Lucy deadpanned, before she noticed Natsu's faraway expression.

Soon after that, everyone went back to their businesses, while the blonde approached the uncharacteristically silent Natsu.

"Hey, Natsu." She said softly, gaining her teammate's attention.

"Huh? Hey, Lucy." Natsu said as he looked at his blonde friend.

"You mind if I sit here?" Lucy asked in a somewhat hesitant tone which wasn't noticed by the rose haired teen.

"Suit yourself." Natsu said before he leaned back on the wall.

Lucy observed her friend who seemed to be deeply in thought. The rose haired teen looked at the ceiling for a while, so Lucy got in front of him and this time he didn't miss her worried expression.

"What is it, Lucy?" He asked.

"Is something wrong, Natsu? You seem a bit off since you returned with Lisanna and Elfman." Lucy said, her voice mirroring her expression.

"Nothing. I'm just thinking." The rose haired teen said. Lucy pouted as she got even closer.

"Is it about Igneel?" She asked. Natsu sighed before he locked eyes with the blond girl next to him.

"This is gonna sound crazy, but, lately, I've been hearing voices." He said eventually.

"Voices? Telling you what?" Lucy asked with curiosity.

"Like a whispering. Like-" Natsu said before he paused for a moment.

"Like someone is calling me." He added as Lucy looked at him in surprise.

"Calling you? Like from a distance?" The celestial spirit mage said as Natsu looked in thought.

"It was like that at first, but today it was more intense. I heard someone calling my name, and then I found Lisanna, but I don't think it was her. The voice sounded deeper, more mature." The rose haired teen mused.

'I've never seen Natsu so deep in thought about something.' Lucy thought as she looked at her friend.

"Thank you, Lucy. I already feel better after sharing this with someone." Natsu said as he suddenly got up, his trademark grin back on his face.

"Yosh. Where is that stripper? I feel like fighting now." The dragon slayer said as he started looking for Gray.

'Whatever it is you are dealing with, you will definitely find a solution to it, Natsu.' Lucy thought with a smile as she looked at the her friend challenging Gray to armwrestling.


Natsu opened his eyes, finding himself in a place surrounded by mist.

"Where am I? This looks nothing like Lucy's apartment." The rose haired teen noted as he got up and looked around. There was nothing in sight for what seemed like kilometers.

"Lucy! Happy! Where are you?" Natsu shouted as he walked around. The ground felt cold and humid, and the rose haired teen realised that he was barefoot.

'Damn it! I can't even see where I'm going.' He thought as he narrowed his eyes, recognising some sort of a building ahead.

"Finally. Is anyone there?" Natsu shouted once again in hopes of finding someone to help him. Suddenly he froze on his tracks as he noticed hostile movement ahead.

'Someone's coming.' The dragon slayer thought, bracing himself for a fight. His instincts came true as a purple sphere came his way, and he jumped back to avoid the attack, which was seemingly absorbed by the ground.

"Who's there?"The dragon slayer angrily demanded as a shadow emerged from the mist.

"All who break the Taboo must be eliminated!" A woman's cold voice was heard, and Natsu took in the appearance of his attacker.

She was clad in a sleeveless white sailor fuku, adorned with a black skirt and boots, a black ribbon styled V with a jewel hanging from the choker. Long dark green hair framed her pretty facial features, and her purple eyes bore with fury as she stared at the dragon slayer.

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Natsu asked in confusion. His eyes widened as the sailor warrior readied a long steel rod, which was shaped like a heart in its upper tip. The red orb, which was located in the center of the heart, glowed as the warrior spun the rod.

"DEAD SCREAM!" The woman whispered as the same purple sphere from earlier was launched from the rod directly at Natsu.

"KARYU NO KAGITSUME!" The fire dragon slayer yelled as he used the fire on is legs to propel himself in the air, dodging the sphere. He then used the momentum to flip and land on the mysterious woman with an axe kick. The sailor warrior brought her rod up just in time to block his attack, and followed by pushing him back. Natsu landed on his legs and quickly went back on the offensive, this time with a series of punches, but his mysterious opponent dodged with grace. As Natsu locked eyes with the beautiful sailor warrior, he noticed a strange expression on her face which caused him to jump back and drop his stance.

"Who are you? And what is this place?" He asked in a calmer tone.

The green haired woman didn't answer right away, instead she still stood on her guard.

"Why did you stop fighting? I am trying to kill you." She enquired, sounding confused.

"I may not be the brightest person, but at least I can tell when someone is actually after my life." Natsu noted, surprising the sailor warrior. "Frankly though, I'm not sure what's going on or where am I so, will you tell me what's the deal here?"

'That's quite observant of him. I think I'm starting to see why the queen recommended him. The question is; will he help us?' She thought as she slowly dropped her fighting stance.

"Very well then, I shall explain why you are here, Natsu Dragneel." The green haired woman said. "You are aware that there are worlds besides your own, correct?"

"You mean like Edolas?" Natsu asked.

"Yes, and no. This-" The sailor warrior started while the fog vanished, revealing an endless dome as Natsu noticed that they were standing at a path of light. "Is the Gate of Time and Space."

"Time and Space?" The rose haired teen muttered before his eyes widened in realization. "So you are…"

"The Guardian of the Gate? Precisely. My name is Sailor Pluto." The warrior of the Afterlife said as Natsu took a moment to deal with what he just heard.

"I was going to say like Mystogan, but a Guardian? Edolas didn't have a guardian." The rose haired teen pondered.

"That's because Earthland and Edolas were connected via the Anima, an alternate way which could be used only between those two realms." Pluto explained as Natsu let a long "Oh." to show that he understood the difference.

"But that still doesn't explain why am I here now. It's been less than a week since we returned from Edolas." He said, making the sailor warrior give him a half smile.

"Because I have a request for you." She said as she motioned the young mage to come closer.

"Observe." Pluto urged as a transparent blue orb appeared in front of them. Natsu did as she told him and looked at the sphere.

"Earthland and Edolas are not the only realms in the world, Natsu Dragneel. In the realm of the Milky Way there's a new danger; daimons that desire to destroy the planet Earth in the Sol System." The sailor warrior explained as the orb showed scenes of girls in sailor outfits fighting with demonic looking women.

"This enemy is stronger than I anticipated, and I fear for the planet's protectors' survival, the Sailor Senshi. However, I can't abandon my post as the Guardian of Time and Space in order to help them."Pluto added as Natsu looked back at her.

"Sailor Senshi? You mean these girls?" The rose haired teen asked as he pointed at the girls in the orb.

Pluto nodded as she looked at Natsu with a serious expression.

"What I request from you is this; I will help you go to Japan where the Senshi reside, and you will ensure that they successfully manage to defeat this new threat, preferably with as few casualties as possible." The guardian of the gate said as Natsu's eyes widened.

"What about my world? What about my comrades? I can't just disappear without a word and leave them like this!" He exclaimed as Pluto looked down, smiling.

"So it is true, your bonds with your comrades are strong. Well, lucky for us, there is a small... loophole that can help you in that case." The green haired woman said as she looked up again.

"I am not sure how is this possible, but the time flows much slower in Earthland than the Sol System." She added as Natsu was once again confused.

"Huh? I don't get it." The rose haired teen said.

"Simply put, a year in Earth is the equivalent of a day in Earthland." Pluto clarified with a wry smile as Natsu grinned.

"Then what are we waiting for? I'll kick the daimons' asses and help those Sailor Senshi!" The dragon slayer declared as he bumped his fists.

"That's what I was hoping to hear." Pluto said as she went towards the gate.

"Beware though; this world is completely different from yours. Magic is not widely spread, it's more of a legend, and most people fear it, so you are going to have to keep a low profile while you are there. Don't use your powers openly unless it's absolutely necessary." The warrior of the Afterlife added as she placed the rod on the gate, opening it in the process.

"Got it." Natsu said as he approached the gate. He was about to enter the gate when he turned to the sailor warrior.

"Where am I going again?" He asked with a funny look.

"To the capital of Japan. Its name is Tokyo." Pluto said as Natsu nodded.

"Thanks. Alright, I'll be going now." The dragon slayer said as he was soon enveloped by the light of the path.

"Good luck, Natsu Dragneel. May fate be with you." Pluto said as the gate closed.


Author's Note: Yo everyone! I'm back with a new story. Like I said in the AN of the last chapter from The Tale of The Leaf Hurricane, I would try my luck in different fandoms before my hiatus will begin. And as I was watching an episode from Sailor Moon S, this idea came to me. So I searched on the site and I realized that there are barely any crosses with Fairy Tail and Sailor Moon so I thought "Why not try it?"
As you can see, this is a prologue in order to set the plotline for the cross. The whole idea is still in developmental stages so I'm not sure when am I going to update next, I suppose the reception of the story will play a part as well. Next chapter will feature Natsu's arrival in Tokyo and most likely appearances from the Sailor Warriors. Note that since Sailor Moon is different from Fairy Tail, the main focus of this story will be a bit different than the chapter/fight story that I have here.
One more thing. There's a high possibility of having a pairing in this one as romance is highly emphasized in Sailor Moon, not to mention that it will be an extra challenge for me. I have no solid ideas on who to pair with Natsu, so I will appreciate it if you suggest any in the reviews that I hope to get.
See ya on the next chapter! Marvey out.
