Prologue
Usagi sighed heavily as she rolled over on her back, still reading through the chapter in her book. It was so boring though, nothing excited had happened in so long. There hadn't been any enemy since Chaos and it seemed that there weren't too many new faces at her school for her to befriend. It was just so peaceful and calm it was dreadfully boring. Yes, Usagi HAD always wanted a normal life, her life still wasn't exactly normal though. She had a little girl with pink hair living in her house that was her future daughter and her fiancé was currently in America but hey, what was she supposed to do? At least there wasn't any fighting. Still, she needed a vacation, something to spark some interest back into this new and boring life. She sighed again as she tossed the history book to the floor beside her. Some of their study sessions had rubbed off on her and after having passed the High School entrance exam, Usagi had actually begun to pay attention to her schooling. Sure her grades still weren't the best and she wasn't in that brainy school that Ami was going to or the modeling school Minako had decided on, it fit her though. She was happy with her school and the people that were with her. Naru and her were still together, two best friends were still together so at least that was a little comfort. The rest of the Senshi attended different schools but they still did things quiet often, just not as often as usual. They seemed to be drifting apart a little, each one going their separate way and starting to make a life for them that didn't necessarily include the others. Usagi sighed again and buried her face in her pillow, thinking of Mamoru. What was he doing right now? Was he dreaming about her? It was, after all, nighttime in his part of America.
"Oh Mamo-chan, I miss you." Usagi said, her lips curving downward into a frown. They had been together for so long now, soulmates that had found each other after being separated for a thousand years. He was all she could think of at the moment. She hadn't seen him in several months, not since his last visit to Japan around the holidays.
"Usagi-chan?" Came a familiar voice and a soft knock from outside the door. Usagi picked up her book and flipped to the correct page.
"Hai, you can come in ChibiUsa-chan." Usagi said as she pretended to be studying. The door opened slowly and the pink-haired girl clad in a pair of Usagi's old bunny rabbit pajamas came in and hopped up onto the bed beside her.
"I'm bored Usagi-chan." ChibiUsa said, lying down on her stomach beside Usagi. Usagi yawned and then sighed, nodding her head.
"Me too, nothing exciting has happened lately, I mean, it's so boring." Usagi said, as she propped her elbows on the book with her face in her hands. ChibiUsa nodded and the pair just sat there for several moments. Usagi stood up and walked to her closet, looking for something to pull on.
"Where are you going Usagi-chan? It's still really early, normally you don't get dressed until really late on the weekends." ChibiUsa said, shocked that Usagi was actually out of bed. Usagi stuck her tongue out at the girl and pulled on a light blue tank top and a short white skirt. She pulled on a pair of knee-high white socks and a pair of shiny white shoes.
"Come on ChibiUsa-chan, why don't you go get dressed and I'll take you to the amusement park," Usagi said smiling as she held up two tickets. "I won them from a radio station the other day." ChibiUsa's eyes brightened at the offer and she ran up and hugged Usagi.
"Hai! Arigato Usagi-chan!" ChibiUsa said as she hugged her future mother.
"You better hurry ChibiUsa-chan. You don't want me to leave without you ne?" Usagi asked as she playfully tickled the girl. ChibiUsa laughed delighted and ran to her room, nearly knocking over Usagi's lamp at her mad dash out of Usagi's room. Usagi's smile faded as the girl left the room and she slumped to the floor, feeling something was missing. She wanted an adventure, something that she could hold in her heart and mind that was a secret from the rest of the Senshi. Something that was her own and not anyone elses. She didn't know how to explain it, but this new 'normal' life was so dreary. Her lost interest in the arcade, her sadness over Mamoru going to America for school but happy that he had such an opportunity to study abroad.
Usagi made her way downstairs and hurried ate the breakfast her mother had put on the table.
"You're sure up early Usagi." Her mother said, slightly shocked that Usagi was out and about this early.
"Okaasan, it's ten o'clock…" Usagi said dryly as a sweatdrop appeared on the back of her head. Her mother laughed lightly and patted Usagi on the head. "I'm taking ChibiUsa to the amusement park today, is that all right?" Usagi asked as her mother left the room.
"Hai, just don't be out too late. You have school tomorrow after all." Ikuku said as she turned her attention to the dishes that were in the sink.
"Hai Okaasan." Usagi said smiling as the pink-haired girl came bounding down the stairs. She wore a similar outfit to Usagi, being in pink though. Usagi smiled as she remembered the crescent moon necklace that hung around ChibiUsa's neck. She had given her that necklace a few months ago and she had been so thrilled. Usagi had worn that before she became Sailor Moon, before all of the fighting.
"Can we leave Usagi-chan?" ChibiUsa asked eagerly as she smiled brightly.
"Did you eat yet?" Ikuku chimed in from the kitchen.
"Hai and it was great Ikuku-mama!" ChibiUsa said, smiling brightly as she pulled Usagi toward the door.
"Be careful ChibiUsa-chan, and make sure you keep an eye on Usagi for me." Ikuku said from the kitchen as she appeared in the doorway.
"Hai!" The two girls echoed as they walked out the front door.

Usagi was sitting on a bench in the amusement park while ChibiUsa was in the bathroom, her eyes glazed over as her Mamoru appeared in her mind. She missed his smile and his warm touch. She missed that shining black hair and warm blue eyes of his. She hugged herself tightly, feeling slightly cold in the bright afternoon sunshine. Why did she suddenly feel so cold… something was going to happen. Good… She thought quietly to herself. At least then things won't be so dull around here. That was the first time Usagi had ever hoped for battle and it kind of scared her. For as long as she could remember, she had only wanted the chance at a normal life but now that she almost had one, she wasn't sure she wanted it. Fighting was her destiny and she had learned to accept it and when the battles stopped, she almost missed the excitement.
"Usagi-chan? Hello? Is anyone there?" Usagi felt a small fist knocking on her head. Usagi shook her head and her eyes cleared, revealing an annoyed ChibiUsa. "It's about time you woke up Usagi-chan." Usagi sighed and stretched her arms as she stood up.
"Hmm… should we go on… the Ferris wheel-" Usagi started but saw ChibiUsa's nose wrinkle in disgust. "Or… the roller coaster?" Usagi asked, presenting the two rides like a model on a game show. ChibiUsa's eyes grew in size and she grabbed Usagi's arm and began to drag her toward the roller coaster. "The roller coaster ne?" Usagi asked, giggling slightly as the smaller child pulled her toward the ride.

Tamahome sat in the window of the room in the palace of Konan. He hadn't realized how much he cared for Miaka until she had left his world. He just couldn't get the girl out of his mind and it was driving him crazy. He didn't know what to do… she promised to come back, demo… how long would she wait. It had been nearly a month and a half already and he hadn't really said much in the entire time. He knew that Nuriko and Hotohori were worried but he just couldn't seem to wake himself up. He sighed deeply and clutched the ribbon in his hand. The light pink ribbon she had always worn reminded him of her.
"When are you coming back Miaka-chan?" Tamahome asked the night sky, a heavy sigh drifting on the night wind.
Nuriko was standing outside of the room as Tamahome sighed heavily. Nuriko peeked into the window, seeing Tamahome clutching the light pink ribbon in his hand with the other hand hanging at his side. Nuriko couldn't help but feel sorry for the guy but what could be said? Nothing… and Nuriko knew that. They could only hope Miaka would return soon.

It had been a long day, Usagi felt some of the boredom of this time lift. It had been fun spending the day with ChibiUsa. They rarely did much anymore, ChibiUsa had many friends and was very popular in her classes. In some was, ChibiUsa reminded Usagi of herself so much it was nearly scary. The only real difference was the child's grades. She was always a good student, unlike Usagi. She must have gotten that gene from her father… Mr. Medical-Student-Studying-Abroad-in-America as she called him from time to time when he called her. He didn't call tonight, he normally called on Sunday nights but she didn't pay attention to it. He probably had more homework than he could handle and she was fine with that. She knew how serious his schoolwork came to him and she knew that she would only disrupt his concentration away from it. Usagi wasn't ready to go to bed though, she stood up and walked downstairs.
"I'm going for a walk Okaasan." Usagi called as she grabbed her jacket and walked out the front door. She hadn't noticed the slight sprinkle that had started to fall as she made her way downtown, watching as all the people walked by in the streets. Usagi smiled at a few classmates as she walked by but was startled as a girl with brown hair ran right into her. Usagi stumbled and fell in a heap along with the girl.
"Gomen, gomen nasai!" The girl cried as she helped Usagi to her feet. Usagi looked at the girl and smiled slightly. She was a klutz, Usagi remembered that stage… sure, she was still a little clumsy, but not as bad as in Middle School.
"It's all right." Usagi said, smiling at the girl as the girl bowed repeatedly, apologizing.
"I didn't even see you… I'm such a klutz." The girl said, blushing slightly.
"Don't worry about it, I'm fine." Usagi said as she walked past the girl. Yes, Usagi remembered that stage… it had attacked Usagi with a vengeance. Usagi hadn't even been able to chew bubblegum and walk without falling flat on her face… she still hadn't quite mastered it, but she was close. Usagi couldn't help but compare herself at that age with that girl. It was strange, even their hair was similar. The girl had worn her hair in two buns on the sides of her head with a long pink ribbon hanging from one of them but not the other… odd… Usagi just ignored it and continued her walk, sighing to herself as she saw the many couples that walked by hand in hand. She missed Mamoru…

"Miaka?" A surprised voice asked as a girl with brown hair rushed through the door.
"Oniichan!" She cried, throwing herself into the arms of her older brother. It had been months since she had seen him… even though, only a few hours had past in this world. Her brother seemed slightly surprised at her happiness to see him but brushed it off.
"Where have you been all day?" He asked, pushing his little sister away.
"Well, after class, me and Yui-chan went to the library and found this weird book." Miaka started, and proceeded to tell her brother of the many adventures she, Tamahome, and Nuriko had faced inside of the book.

Usagi was leaning against the railing of a rather high building, staring down at the ground so far below. Everyone looked so small from up here, it was amazing, she could see the whole city from here. Sure, she was a little afraid of heights but she didn't care. Everything seemed to peaceful even with the noise of the city and the bright lights. It didn't matter anymore, there was nothing threatening the safety anymore.
"Give me all your money!" A voice shouted from behind Usagi. Usagi gasped as she felt something cold being shoved into her back.
"N… nani?" She stammered as she slowly turned around. Behind her stood a man with a black hat with holes for his mouth and eyes cut out.
"You heard me! Now hand it over or I'll kill you." He said as he reached out his hand, keeping the gun pointed at her.
"H… hai…" Usagi stammered as she reached into her pockets. Her fingers closed around a familiar item… She closed her eyes as a few sad memories returned to her. She realized at that moment, she had been happy with her peaceful life. "I don't have much…" She said as she held out her hand with her wallet. He opened it and leafed through, only finding a few bills and some change.
"What kind of game are you playing? You have to have more money than that!" The man spat as he shoved her against the railing.
"Iie, I'm just a teenage girl… I spent all my money at the amusement park with my Imouto-chan today." Usagi said, fear shining in her eyes. She had made her decision… Her fingers closed around the item as she yanked it from her pocket. "Moon Eternal Make-UP!!" She shouted as she held the brooch above her head.
"Masaka!" The man shouted as he watched the fancy light show. After some spinning around, Eternal Sailor Moon stood in the place of the blond High Schooler.
"How dare you try to rob me! In the name of the moon, I'll punish you!" She yelled as she struck her normal pose. A strange smirk spread across the man's lips as he held up her school ID.
"Tsukino Usagi is Sailor Moon ne? Interesting…" The man said as he showed the ID into his pocket.
"Iie… Give that back!" Sailor Moon shouted as her Eternal Tier appeared in her hand. The man pointed his gun at her again.
"Think of the money I could make with this information," The man said, licking his lips in anticipation. "A lot of people want you dead, you know." Sailor Moon's eyes narrowed in anger as she lifted herself off the ground, landing behind the man. Before he knew what was happening, he was sent sprawling out on his back and her hand was wrapped tightly around his throat.
"Give it back to me!" She spat in disgust as she closed her other hand around his throat as well. He was struggling to pull air into his lungs but took this opportunity to strike her over the head with his gun. Sailor Moon's eyes rolled up in her head and her body went limp and all was black…
