-The Beginning-
The world had been beautiful. Had been, Mamoru thought to himself again. Usagi as Sailor Moon stood by his side, walking among all the people in the barren land. He saw dirty teary faces accompanying cries of, "Come back to me." "Don't die!" "Everything will be okay."

Mamoru could already feel Usagi's power spilling to the hurt and dying people as she tried to save them. People began to gasp in awe as the Imperial Crystal's power washed over them. Usagi continued to walk- her power spreading far and wide to the last of Earth's people. Sailor Moon had come to the rescue.

After a long while of walking and healing Usagi found what she was looking for. Her beautiful Sailor Team all nine stood in a circle. Usagi walked on as her soldiers parted for her to see her family. Even her dear brother lay on the ground dead

Usagi knelt down by her brother her dirty gloves stroking his cold face. "Come back dead brother. Mommy? Pappa?" Tears began to fall from her blue orbs as Mamoru watched Usagi attempt to shake her family back to life.

The people of Tokyo watched as Usagi called forth the power of her Silver Crystal. Even Chibi Usa stepped forward as Chibi Moon to call forth healing with her future Silver Crystal. Sad people covered in dirt and grime but now healed thanks to Sailor Moon watched as the three dead figures refused to come back.

"Usagi," Mamoru urged as his love who was forcing her body beyond its limit, "they're too far gone. You can't bring them back."

Chibi Usa pulled back instantly at her father's urging and surely but slowly Usagi withdrew. The light from the crystal dying out and taking its place in her brooch once more. She wanted to protest, but she knew it was true. It was so much easier to bring Senshi back to life because in death they had such a strong radiance; a normal human could be easily lost among all the other auras.

She looked back at the destroyed Tokyo. It was time, she was certain, to bring about Crystal Tokyo.

"Sailor Moon..." Someone chanted. Usagi turned to direction of the voice only to find it jump behind here. "Sailor Moon." Someone else spoke.

"Sailor Moon!" A child cried clutching to her mother's dress. Her mother followed suit, "Sailor Moon."

"Sailor Moon! Sailor Moon! Sailor Moon!" The crowd chanted beginning to stir to life.

Her Senshi swelled with pride as their Princess turned in circles with shock. "Sailor Moon!" Chibi Usa shouted throwing her arm into the air.

"Sailor Moon! Sailor Moon! Sailor Moon!" The crowd roared to life, her Senshi leading the call as everyone began to pump their fist into the air.

"Sailor Moon be strong," Mamoru whispered into her ear.

She shook him off tossing her hand in front of herself. The crowd fell silent as she closed her eyes. Her crystal shot upward into the sky like a small sun. The people watched in awe as the white light filled the sky. Blindness overcame awe and people looked away squinting painlessly.

Mamoru looked away as well hiding behind his cape.

Moments went by and the light still coursed through raised hands and cover clothes. Finally when Mamoru thought he would never open his eyes again Usagi spoke.

"My people! I am Princess Serenity. I am Sailor Moon. I am Neo-Queen Serenity and welcome to CRYSTAL TOKYO!" She cried in a thick regal voice.

Mamoru tossed his cape aside and took in the awful sight...

-The Birthday-
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHIBI USA!" The scouts shouted to their little princess.

Chibi Usa grinned clapping her hands together, "Thank you so much!" She looked around at all the bright cheery face of all the scouts. The only one who wasn't happy looking was Sailor Saturn, but Chibi Usa was scared of her so she didn't really mind. She saw a tall teenage boy on the verge of manhood sitting next to the silent purple scout he had a horn on his head.

She snapped her mind back to the cake in front of her and blew out the candles. Everyone cheered except the Saturn and the boy. She saw a sad smile cross his face and a blank expression from the girl.

"Here's your present Princess!" Minako Princess of Venus said bowing to the Princess. Chibi Usa giggled happily as she ripped the wrapping up to see a pen with a metal symbol of the planet Venus at the top.

"Your first transformation pen; thank you!" Chibi Usa squeaked hugging the pen tightly.

"To our princess..." Makato said kneeling as she handed Chibi Usa a soft velvet bag. Chibi Usa stuck her hand inside quickly and pulled out a thunder ball that was highly coveted in Crystal Tokyo. The rumor was that only Jupiter could make them and she went to the far side of the barren Earth to harnest thunder into them. Parents bought them for their children as eternal night lights. "Princess this thunder ball is not of the Earth storms but of my own Power. Treasure it well!" Chibi Usa nodded putting the ball back in its bag.

Rei walked up to the Earth Moon Princess, "My gift to you." She handed a think packet of scroll paper that she had enchanted just for Chibi Usa. "Don't use these unless you really need it. It is instilled with the power of Mars." Chibi Usa absently stroke the magic paper as Mercury came up to her.

"To my Princess Chibi Usa I give you this," Ami said holding out a compact computer. "Learn to use it, this one is specially made for you." Chibi Usa giggled happily holding the computer open letting the flashing lights catch her eye.

Pluto handed her a necklace with a key silently. Chibi Usa smiled up at the quiet solider, her idol next to her parents. Uranus and Neptune gave her a pretty mirror just like Neptune's and a small jeweled dagger that Endymion quickly took away for safe keeping.

Chibi Usa inward cringed as Saturn stepped up to her. Saturn held out her hand and Chibi Usa reluctantly took the appendage. Chibi Usa paused as images played across her vision. She was older pulling out all the gifts she had just received quickly as if in trouble. "Keep them safe till then." Saturn said taking her place by the boy again.

ChibiUsa blushed as the boy approached. He bent down and kissed her hand longingly, for he had already experienced what Chibi Usa would do thirty years from now in the past, which he had already lived. "For you Young Maiden, A Pegasus horse." Chibi Usa took the porcelain figure with a smile.

The party seemed to stretch on till forever when Endymion and Serenity suddenly stood up and dismissed everyone, "Chibi Usa " Her mother called formally. She looked up at her silver haired mother. Her mother smiled loving said, "It's time to go."

Chibi Usa tilted her head, "Go where?"

The blue haired boy walked up to her smiling. He bowed to her, "Your Royal Highness on behalf of Elysion. I am High Priest Helios and I would like to welcome you to Elysion."

The world seemed to fall away as the party goers and the pretty crystal flowers disappeared and a colorful world took its place.

"Your under world kingdom Princess!" Helios said waving his arm around. Chibi Usa cried out as she ran to the two tall Priestess Twins and began to ask questions.

Serenity held Endymion close as they saw their daughter delight in flowers for the first time. The Priestesses showed her around. Serenity held her tongue as she watched the change in Endymion. Here, he was truly happy since Crystal Tokyo had come to be. In fact he seemed to radiate in the presence of the healthy plant world.

"Elysion is as beautiful as ever, your Majesties." Helios said turning to bow to Serenity and Endymion.

Endymion frowned, "It's the only place." Helios looked up in shock from Endymion's words.

"Sire you mean? The world has yet to bloom? It's been hundreds of years since the fall of Earth," Helios hissed, "take me to the edge of Crystal Tokyo!"

Endymion looked startled at the demand of his High Priest. Taking his hand Endymion took Helios to the edge of the Tokyo.

Helios looked over the barren dirt land frowning. Helios closed his eyes as he turned to his King, "This is all your fault King Endymion."
"What do you mean?" Serenity questioned pulling away from Endymion.

"He's right, I feel he is, but I don't know why," Endymion whispered absently touching his heart.

Serenity frowned, "This isn't good. Maybe it's all linked. Perhaps that is why you have always felt sad and bitter that Earth would bare no fruit. Maybe inside you know what's wrong."

"Perhaps he does, but I know it is something in us both, but I can not remember what. Perhaps you could help us remember Neo-Queen?" Helios asked.

Serenity nodded, "But of course. I shall return to the kingdom. Come at the rise of the moon in the sky and I will help you."

Endymion and Helios watched the angelic lady disappear in a blast of light and found they were too uncomfortable at the end of Crystal Tokyo. Taking each other's hand they departed back to Elysion.

-Sailor War-
"No! My lord!"

"Whore!"

"Endymion..."

"No..."

Enceladus rushed up the stairs to the great prayer crystal of Elysion. This wasn't good. He had seen invaders! Invaders in Elysion, never! He knew he had to tell his brother or all was lost. The light of the crystal was unusually immense. Enceladus was almost sure that, at this moment, all of Elysion was lit by just the prayer stone. Suddenly the light died. He stopped on the stairs looking up in the darkness. What was he going to do?

The Moonflowers flared to life giving a faint glow to the whole of Elysion. He carefully made his way up the rest of the stairs in the dim light in search of the Lord High King of Elysion, Helios.

"Nani!" He gasped when he saw a large mass of the golden crystal stemming off the prayer crystal. Where had it come from and where was Helios when the prayer crystal had been altered! "Oh my King. What have you done?" someone said.

Enceladus bit his lip unsure of what to do. He was standing on one side of oddity poking from the side of the prayer crystal. The voice was coming from the other side in a dripping oozing manner. "Oh my lovely Endymion I always told you that you would only cause Helios pain if you stayed in his presence."

Enceladus supressed a gasp and peered desperately into the golden faceted glass praying his mind was playing tricks on him. The faint image of a sword in many pieces played on the facets. Looking harder he could see the mirror broken face of the King of Earth, Endymion. Following the broken sword once more he found it imbedded into a broken Helios with a shocked face. He could see clearly the large cracks that had appeared passed the golden mass stuck the prayer stone.

He went white with shock. Endymion had run Helios clear through with his sword right into the prayer stone that was now cracked.

"Who's there!" The female voice exclaimed. Enceladus felt his body snap with a painful pop and with an sigh his mind slipped from reality.

Chibi Usa was dancing wildly to the latest court fad. She spun in mad circles with girls of her own age from Tokyo. They giggled frantically trying to out do each other. The music promptly stopped leaving several girls still spinning and much the odd ones out. They laughed. That had been the point of the song.

"Ha! I win!" Chibi Usa laughed. The girls nodded in agreement with their princess.

A maddening orchestra piece began to play. Suddenly the girl was swept away by parents as eleven ladies took to the floor. Each woman revealed herself so distastefully in solid dresses ending at their thighs. Each woman wore their hair back or up in barrettes, their faces hidden behind frowning drama masks.

Three stepped forward dressed in black their faces staring straight at Neo-Queen Serenity. They sang in unison to the music.

That name is also a galaxy
Separate from the stars of birth
To the Earth, it will lie dormant
We are the sailor soldiers of the galactic system

Chibi Usa watched in awe as the three ladies turned almost spitefully to the remaining eight ladies and they began to chant out to the Queen reaching out to her.

The destiny of the planets circling the sun
We protect the princess of the moon
We are the sailor soldiers of the solar system

Four dressed in green, blue, orange, and red dropped to the floor as if waiting for an enemy.

The ominous shadow...

They intoned before two other woman sang out determinedly in lighter shades of blue and green.

Just as with the outer solar system

The four women on the ground turned up to their comrades in warning. Almost as if communicating their fear but unwilling to do so.

...When it creeps near

The two ladies nodded and turned to the Queen once more throwing out their arms.

The proof of our mission is this Sword and Mirror

Instantly a mirror appeared in the hands of the green lady and a sword in the hands of the blue lady.

The beginning of a tragedy
A premonition of destruction...

The four ladies sprinted off the ground urging the other two to listen. The original three ladies dressed in black shook their heads ignoring the display of the other six. They turned the crowd running in a circle calling out.

Lost among the shooting stars
Where did the princess fall?

The four ladies forgot the two and turn to themselves singing in a conference of worry.

Because we don't want to see
The world's end
Decide on your heart
When it's time for war

A small fragile lady in purple began to sing as the four debated whether they should fight.

Ruin and birth
Will circle around again

The final lady dressed in a mauve color stepped forward in a soft voice began to sing.

At the end of time space
Stay alone
I will protect the door of time

Suddenly the three that had circled the crowd looking for their Princess stopped. They turned to the ceiling calling on to nothing.

Chasin' after you
Over infinity
That fragrance
To search for it
No matter where it's hidden
That scent
Can't be shrouded

To you
My call
Can't you answer?
I don't have a way
Like that
I want you to wait
For surely
We will meet
My love
Your love

As the three ladies pleaded the other four also turned to the ceiling but in a pledge position.

Even if I risk my life

We will protect
That person

Keep it to ourselves

Evil
Ambition
We won't allow it
We won't forget
Even if we are reborn

There is one mission

The remaining four rushed form the center of the room towards the table kneeling before Neo-Queen Serenity.

The precious
Blue Earth

If it's to defend it

There are no regrets

We are each different
The burden of the stars
We should meet
An encounter

We loved each other

All the voices died out at once and the music continued. Finally one of the women dressed in black stopped gazing at the ceiling and turned to address the Queen.

The promise of the galaxy, change into light

Serenity stood up quickly and sang in a delicate voice remembering the words.

Make the hearts of the soldiers one

All the women stood up and face Serenity as she continued to sing with them.

Both our dreams and memories are unfinished, however
We understand that the time has come
In order to protect the people we love
The sailor soldier war exists
The sailor soldiers have a battle

They cried out in song together arms reaching out to each other.

Sailor War! Sailor War!

The music played on to a fevering speed then promptly ended with a low horn blow. Serenity was smiling happily at the performance at her daughter's birthday. Everyone watched smiling too even though their hearts were in pain from such a sad song.

Chibi Usa was in awe at how beautiful their Japanese voices had been. People often enough spoke common since Tokyo was the only place left alive. Everyone had to share a common language since so many foreign entities had been crowded into one large city.

She was still letting the song play in her head when a scream rang out and Serenity fell down behind the table.

That was the last time she ever heard her mother say, "Endymion."

-Return

Author Notes: - What the awful site eh? Well I didn't really want to put that in there and leave you to wonder that. Actually in the original story I used the SM American's names and Shingo was alive then. But I wanted to be a little more symbolic in this chapter.
I mean Usagi goes from her old life to her new life throughout the entire series of Sailor Moon and in my story I wanted her to fully enter her new one and for that I felt she had to lose her last physical ties to Earth and become the true Queen of the Moon.
Little funny things about this chapter:
I kept spelling Mamoru Mamuro
Originally, I had the Ice Queen destroy Earth and Sailor Moon just walked up and was like, "I am your queen!", I decided this way an improvement, ne?

Author Notes:- Okay here we go with the original and the now parts...
Helios and Enydmion didn't get along because Endymion was bitter about Earth
Chibi Usa was named Reeni, Serena and Rini when I forgot to spell consistantly.
Mercury gave her minicomputer to ChibiUsa not a custom one.
This chapter was slightly uncomfortable to me because well, I had to twist alot of ideas in my whole story line since it didn't work before. They say it's hard to make a world, but try bending the rule in one that is already made, that's why it's hard to right proper fanfics.

Author Notes:- Well I went in search of music to cosplay to and found Sailor War Supreme. It's a Beautiful song I found at It's absolutely wonderful and I HAD to put it into the story. It shows the conflict even after a couple of centuries that still exsist. Because I've read all about the end (Since American doesn't want the darn last season because of the Starlights) and watched as many clips as I could find. I think that the whole different goals still should exist.
Yes Enceladus is a one shot wonder in AWWF. I feel sorry for the poor guy. Don't hold the female voice with to much worry... for now.
