Sailor Saturn: Soldier of Silence

by Faia no Tenshi

a/n: ok, this is obviously reposted coz I had to switch accounts- but i hope everyone will still review again!! I've decided to patch up this story a little bit. This is now an AU (because Goku's alive right now and Chichi's dead)that will soon fit in with the rest of the show, just w/o ChiChi. OK- that's all for now. Ja ne!

Summary: Hotaru is Sailor Saturn. Awakened from her eternal slumber on her planet, she travels to what she used to know as Earth. Here, she finds the Z warriors, people with extraordinary powers. Training to make her own power stronger, she stands alone, until one of her sensei slowly teaches her how to open her heart- and love.

~~~I Stand Alone~~~

I stand alone.

In the darkness, I will wait.

When my turn for battle has come, I will destroy.

Then I stand alone again.

I need nobody.

The silence is my heart, the power is my soul.

I was born to destroy. And to rebuild.

I will make things better, by myself.

I stand alone.

Nobody need waste their soul on a soldier like me.

I need the silence.

I will stand alone to the end of time and beyond,

for I am neither immortal nor mortal.

I will stand alone,

as is my destiny-

I am Sailor Saturn, the Sovereign of Silence,

The Soldier of Destruction.

(Saturn's POV)

I awoke slowly, first coming out of living dreams, then into eternal darkness, then following a pinprick of light that was the sun. When I awakened fully, I was aware of something.....Crystal Tokyo was not there anymore. I didn't feel them on Earth....they were on their home planets, Endymion on the moon. I felt knowledge....he represented the sun god.

Well, I'll go to Earth, I decided. Something big was coming, or Pluto would not have awakened me.

**** (Goku's POV)

We were sparring, Vageta and I, when we felt the strange energy. A silver prism of light seemed to be floating to the ground not far away. With a glance at each other, we took off.

It wasn't hard to follow the thing- it glowed brightly until it touched the ground, but the feeling of magic was very high, higher than even King Kai. When we arrived at the barren grassy field where it had landed, I stopped in shock.

A young woman stood there, her dark-almost black- purple hair not quite touching her shoulders and blowing with the breeze. She had on a white fuku with a blue-violet skirt that would look scandalously high on anyone else, but she stood like she was made to wear it. The sailor collar matched her skirt and at the base, on her chest, had a purplish bow that matched the one at the back of her skirt and her eyes, which she now fixed on Vageta and I. She took a step closer, moving gracefully in heeled, knee- high lace up boots. A glaive materialized in one gloved hand. "State your name."

I said "Son Goku" as Vageta said "says who?"

(Saturn's POV)

I scowled at the shorter man and turned my gaze to the taller one. Their magic levels were above normal, but not all that odd. I used my left hand to touch the white gem on my tiara, to focus on ki levels. Theirs were through the roof!

"Well, Son Goku, this is Earth, is it not?" I demanded to know. He nodded. I looked up at the sky, with its puffy blue clouds. "Yup, still the same ol boring planet I left a millenia ago," I said to myself, then lowered my gaze to the men. The short one was glaring, clearly convinced I was an enemy. I felt Son-san trying to see my thoughts.... "I'm sorry, I'm a sailor senshi, boys. Sailor Saturn's my name, shi is my middle game. I come to my past home in peace." My glaive dematerialized. "Well, short man? Are you going to state your name?"

The man 'Hmphed.' Goku shot a glare in his direction. "He's Vageta, and he's really stubborn. He's the Saiya-jin no Oujii."

My interest was piqued. "What are these....Saiya-jins? Do they have something to do with how strong you both are?" I asked.

Vageta's glare lessened, a bit. "Saiya-jins are a superior race, that's almost extinct. We are the only pureblooded Saiya-jins left, and me and Kakarrott's brats are part Saiya-jin too." "The whole story is really, really long. If you'd like, you could come with us, and we'd explain it to you."

I thought over the offer. On one hand, I could never trust anybody but a fellow Senshi. On the other hand, I could get some useful information about super-strong people? and get a place to stay. I didn't mind staying outdoors, but..... "Alright. I accept your offer. Thank you for your kindness, Son Goku."

"No problem!" He seemed about to turn around, but then realized something. "Uh- can you fly?"

"Hai," I replied, smiling ever so slightly. With a thought, light gray wings sprouted from my back, but did not hurt. I rose into the air experimentally, wings fluttering. Goku and Vageta both rose into the air also, and started to speed off. Luckily, being on Uranus in the past had taught me about speed.

****

On the way to Goku's house, I learned a bit more about the two. Goku had two children- Gohan and Goten. Gohan was in his first year of highschool. His wife, Chichi, had been killed by undetected cancer. Vageta's wife was named Bulma, and she was a technical genius. They had a son named Trunks, and sometimes Mirai Trunks would visit from his alternate future.

(Vageta's POV)

The girl, Saturn, didn't seem to want to say much about herself. Goku told of my home life- I would have to pound him later.

"So what about you?" Goku asked cheerfully. The girl's face became an impassive mask. "For many years, I lived in Crystal Tokyo, a protector of the moon princess. When Chaos came, the battle of light and darkness pursued. Neo Queen Serenity used a special power of hers to let the world be reborn, after I destroyed it. I am the only Sailor Scout allowed here now, because I am death and rebirth."

That was it? Nothing more personal? I scowled. I didn't feel negative energy, but still.....

"Do you have another name than Saturn? I mean, it's kinda strange, being named after a planet, isn't it?"

"Well, not really. I'm Saturn's princess." She still avoided the question...

Goku shot her an inquisitive glance. She didn't look at him, but sighed softly. "When we land, I will become Tomoe Hotaru."

(Author's POV)

As all Goku and Saturn touched down outside a capsule house, Goku turned to look at her curiously. She frowned and touched her heart shaped brooch, and she was standing in black gi pants, a lavender t-shirt, purple boots and wristbands. "My earth name is Tomoe Hotaru," she stated again. Her wings folded at her back. Goku led her inside the house, shouting, "Gohan! Goten!" A tall teenager with short black hair and black eyes came down the stairs first. Then a child who looked like a miniature Goku came out of a lower floor room. "Gohan, Goten, this is Tomoe Hotaru. If it's ok with you, she might be staying a while. She comes from Saturn."

"As in, the planet Saturn?" Gohan asked, curious. Hotaru nodded. "Hai, I am Princess of Saturn, a Sailor Senshi."

"You're a Princess?" Goten looked confused. "But I thought they had to wear fluffy dresses and stuff. You look like a fighter to me."

"Arigato," she replied nonchalantly. "Am I going to hear the full story yet?"

"Well, I was going to go to Bulma's....Vageta can explain further into the past, and about Frieza."
