Well I was rereading this story and I came to the conclusion that industrial toilet paper was thicker than the previous plot. So I completely rewrote the first chapter, taking the story into a completely new direction...though I will most likely come back and keep trying to improve the story.

this takes place about a year after the last season, so the scouts are seventeen. (And i meant what i said about correcting me!)

Also, its been like a year since ive seen the last season of Sailor Moon, so just deal with whatever I write, and if its wrong please to correct me.

Enjoy!

The ringing of Serena's bunny alarm clock rang loudly as it started the day, and could be heard easily through out the Tsukino house hold. Today was a day that would change the next few years of her life...Serena's life that is; but what Serena didn't know, was that today was her last day as a 'normal' teenage super hero.

The alarm kept blaring.

Serena's door swung open violently as her fuming mother crossed the threshold; an aroma of delicious baked goods flooded her room. "Jesus Serena its 12:00, turn that thing off!" she yelled harshly, whisking a bowl of cookie dough batter at light speed. "Get out of bed!"

Serena stirred a little, tangling herself in the confines of her bed. The morning light bled threw her closed lids as she twisted and turned for comfort. "Mother...go away..." She groaned pulling the pillow from under her head and covered her face. It was simply too early to wake up.

Serena's mother wasn't having it this morning, she tighten her fist and stirred harder, "You should be studding for finals, looking at university's, get a job!" she said threw gritted teeth. It had been a long year, and her mother wasn't pleased the lest at her low test grades; half the time Serena wasn't home to make curfew! She didn't have a job, and spent the money she had on silly milkshakes and growing mounds of clothes. It was reaching the last few weeks of school and she hadn't even applied for a university. Yes, her mother was furious at the sloth of a daughter she had raised.

Serena closed the pillow tighter around her face, begging her to go away. Mumbling things like 'You don't even have a clue' and 'If you only knew the hell I've been through!'

Raw chunks of chocolate chip cookie dough made its way to the sheet rock of Serena's wall. "Now!" was her only response before slamming the door and storming down the stairs.

And with that Serena shook her long blond hair and sat up ignoring the fact that 2 maybe 3 good quality chocolate chip cookies lost there unbaked life due to her fatigue. Truth was, she was up most of the night cramming, and today she would wait for her loyal boyfriend Darien to pick her up, take her out for lunch and study some more.

Today was Saturday July 28, 1999. A gorgeous day to be out and about and fighting crime, but and unusual one none the less. The sun beamed brightly through out the light clouds, feeding the city with happiness.

Serena woke up, and hopped out of bed before skipping into the bathroom for her religious twelve o clock Saturday shower. She sang a little here and there between shampooing and conditioning.

"Ahhh…look at all the lonely soap suds…." A smiled crept across her lips as she patted her feet up and down. The moon princess giggled at how easily she was amused by putting words to the silly tunes inside her head.

Serena turned off the water and wrapped her hair and body into a dry towel. She stood in the mirror and brushed her teeth, as she brushed she wondered what to wear. It was just last month that Serena had discovered the wonderful pleasures sexual intercourse could offer. She considered herself a changed woman, a lucky one at that, for having such a partner who would wait until she felt ready to jump into the deep end. Their already serious relationship seemed to explode with deeper feelings of significance to one another. Darien used run threw her mind every second of the day, but it seemed after that significant day, her birthday to be exact, he completely consumed her soul. She ached when they were apart, cried when she woke up from her wondrous dreams about him, and simply couldn't get enough of him when they together. She started putting her hair up the way Darien would like it, buy new perfumes hoping it would please him, and the time and money she invested in the clothes she bought was unimaginable. The latest trends, the sexy styles, but keeping it extremely simple and comfortable at the same time. Darien Shields was of the simple race after all, laid back and cool, but lately he seemed a little on edge, a little nervous, a little...anxious, And that scared Serena terribly.

She finished brushing and spit out the foamy paste and skipped into her bedroom.

Serena hummed. "Oh Luna...Can I have word with you?" She said now rummaging through her closet tossing out jeans and skirts.

"What do you want?" Luna replied dryly, trying to continue to cat nap on the mess of a bed Serena left behind.

"Well…" Serena said slowly, layered a pink tank top over a white one. "I want a challenge!" she was now launching shoes. She wanted something to distract her from the seriousness of her growing relationship with Darien. It terrified her how much she really loved him. The nervousness she was feeling from him, was it because he knew how much she truly loved him...and he didn't feel the same way? No. Serena quickly shook that thought out of her head, they were meant to be together she knew it...he knew it, literally the whole Universe knew it. It only left one option.

"…A challenge?" Luna gasped barley escaping decapitation from a pink stiletto.

"Yeah, a mission!" she slipped into a tight holey pair of the lowest low riding truck jeans. "You know, like you see in the movies!" she was now spraying lavender perfume onto her neck and applying deodorant to her silky pits. "It's been too peaceful, ever since the Starlights left...its just been boring." she dragged brushing her hair, she felt scared. "I have a strong feeling...that Darien will ask me the question..." She stopped at took a heavy breath "...and Crystal Tokyo will be waiting just around the corner!" Serena set her brush down and looked Luna, trying to hold back tears. "I love him...so much Luna, but I cant possibly be ready for Crystal Tokyo!" she inhaled shakily. "Not marriage...not Queen...not my family, not ready. Luna I'm only eighteen."

Luna sat there her eyes closed from listening. "Serena, when the time comes you will be ready. I've trained you and the scouts well, I have complete faith in you as our leader, its your destiny!" she watched for Serena's reaction. "Everything will fall into place..." Before Luna could finish sentence, the foundation of her house seemed to shake. mirror started rattling violently and things began falling off of the shelves!

"Earth Quake!" Serena screamed lunging for Luna. Her heart began racing and her stomach tightened painfully. Serena's room began shake more as it started to twist and turn, slowly becoming bigger and smaller as if she was on a bad acid trip, dark purple clouds began to replace her pink floor. Serena cried as she witnessed the color from her walls melt into grayness, pink mist quickly swallowed the room; and Serena soon noticed she was standing on absolutely nothing.

"Luna...I don't think that was an earthquake..."

"You think?" Luna snapped back climbing onto her shoulder and looking around. "Were not in Tokyo anymore...come on lets look around."

A tall curvy shadow advanced from the mist almost instantly after they're arrival. "Just wait a minute!" she spoke.

"Pluto?" Serena turned around beamed. Relief flooded her body, but quickly vanished. Why was she here?

"Serena!"

She canceled her thoughts and turned again to her name. "Rei?" she scrunched her eyebrows and squinted. "What are you doing here?"

"The question is; what are we doing here?" Lita spoke walking towards Serena with Mina and Ami trailing close behind.

Pluto approached looking as serious ever. "Sailor Scouts…I have an offer." She started eying each one of them.

The girls nodded there heads for her to continue.

"It's extremely important…" she bit her lip. "Something that could disturb the very being of your existence."

The girls were a little taken back by the sudden news, but shook their heads to hear more.

Mina spoke up. "Please Pluto, I'm sure whatever it is we've proven our selfs strong enough to take care of it." she turned around to face her blond partner. "By the way Serena, great job with the layering!"

Serena smiled like an idiot. Hoping to the heavens it would mask her insecurities. "Thanks Mina!"

Pluto knitted her eyebrows in annoyance. "Since Tokyo is at a bit of peace now theses days…I was wondering if you could protect a few people, just for the time being." Sailor Pluto took a step forward with begging eyes. "It's a very Strange and unheard of job, but I couldn't think of anyone who could it better than you girls."

Lita raised an eye brow. "Protect people? We 'protect people' every day!"

"You just said you didn't know if we could handle it!" Ami cried in polite confusion, "Who are these people?"

Pluto kept her face calm and serious and sighed, preparing herself to tell the story. "A virus in the Universal Time Line has been detected, were not sure what caused it and as of right now it is being frozen, but only for so long. The virus has grown and infected the important years of the 1960's with bacteria, changing minor events that left huge effects on the world today." Pluto paused for a bit letting it all soak in. "I'm not strong enough to freeze this growing virus and change the Time Line at the same time. You scouts, will be transported into the 1960's, correct history, and disinfect the bacteria."

The others shot wary glances to one another.

"How long is this mission?" Rei asked feeling extremely queasy about the whole idea of time travel.

"You cant hop from year to year...I'm afraid you will be sent when the fist mistake in history is made, and live threw until the last one is fixed;like I said, in order to protect the Universal Time Line from being corrupted even more I had to freeze it, the only way to freeze the virus I suppose. You'll return when the bacteria is disinfected and the past is healthy again ." Pluto answered frowning a bit.

"So...who are the people were protecting?" Ami asked still a bit skeptical and feeling sick all over. Years? She would have to spend years correcting time?!

"You will be protecting icons, very famous people of the 60's, who have made an impact on the present day's culture. You will have to locate them and befriend them. Like I said, the past isn't healthy you can be very impressionable, confuse people into thinking their easily making the right decision because it feels as if its fate. Unfortunately, thats what the bacteria has done. Wrong decisions were made, as the bacteria weakens the correct fate should take its place on these peoples lives, You will each receive a bag, as well as a watch and book to help remind you of the correct events that should be happening."

Pluto didn't have the slightest idea of what the girls were thinking. Time travel? What if they got lost? What if they missed an event? What would happen then?

"So who are these icons were protecting?" she asked timidly.

Pluto smiled reassuringly, calming the warrior of ice and water "I'm glad you asked Ami." she nodded her head to the others and the back to Ami. "Theres so much work to be done, you will meet a Mr. Robert Allen Zimmerman in the year 1961 in New York City. He will be meeting a certain Woody Guthrie in a New Jersey hospital. Make your acquaintance known." Pluto shrugged her shoulders. "Befriend him, you'll have a book with pictures and information about locations. Be quick."

Rei stepped up, quietly thanking Ami for taking some of the pressure off. Truth be told, Rei wasn't hot about this idea at all but if it was for the sake of man kinds future, it was something that had to be done. With that in mind she proceeded to ask her question. "And me?"

"Rei, you will be responsible for the later years of a band called the Rolling Stones. 1965 is when you will make your entrance." Rei smiled and nodded her head. Chad had mentioned something about the London rock band before, now she regretted not listening.

Lita smiled the pressure slowly easing away as well. Going back in time was an extremely dangerous mission! One wrong step and you could possibly end...or begin a life."Me?"

Pluto turned her gaze towards Lita, who in Pluto's eyes, looked positively frightened to wits ends. Though she was sure there was a great bunch of excitement waiting to be exposed and released. "Lita, With all the influential changes going on in Robert Zimmerman's life, Ami simply couldn't do it alone. You will meet Ami and by now, Bob Dylan, in the year 1964. He's appearance is changing, remember that; he is making the leap from folk song writer to rock and roll star. Your acquaintance should be easier now that he should be close friends with Ami at that point. Be inspiring, and give him ideas. Life will be hectic thats something you have to deal with, follow your watch and read your book like it is the air you breathe."

Tension grew once again and you could feel the panic crawling in Mina's skin.

The blond Sailor of Love and Beauty turned to look back at her friends and the back Pluto, she looked at her as if she was being held at gun point. She rose her head to meet the punishing eyes of her maker. "You mean Ami will be all by herself? All alone in a country and time she knows nothing about until Lita arrives 3 years later?" Mina shifted her stare not really waiting for an answer. "Who will I get?" she asked in a whisper that was barely audible.

"Mina, Your bright ideas and spunky attitude will take the Rolling stones to the top..."

Mina could feel her lip start to quiver. Pluto didn't have to explain much more. Mina would be shipped off to a foreign country in a lost infected time just like Ami, for years! Could she manage not seeing her friends for years? Mina didn't think so but continued to listen.

"You will meet a Mick Jagger and Keith Richards on July 12, 1962 back stage at the Marquee club in London. Meet them as soon as possible, do what ever it takes and convince them to play Chuck Berry types of music. The times are very impressionable, use that to your advantage for the mission. Take extreme caution, you only get one chance at correcting time!"

Mina could only smile at the fact she'd be in London. And Rei would only be three years away! But that left question unanswered, how would they communicate? How would they know they made it alright? Will they ever see each other again? If Mina was seventeen now, she'd be twenty by the time Rei arrived. Would Rei be seventeen or twenty? Mina bit her lip and looked over to a transparent Serena, who was most likely wondering the same questions.

"And Serena…"

She gulped and stood still as she slowly raised her lowered head.

"You said earlier you wanted a challenge, did you not?"

Serena began regretting ever opening her mouth to complain about how boring her heroic schedule was; and made a mental note to never do that again. "Mhm…" was all she could muster.

"Then your wish is granted, because no one will need more protecting than The Beatles."

Serena whimpered and Ami gasped. Pluto said that as if she were happy to report the news. "Thats it? Just the Beatles, your not going to tell me what year or where to meet them?"

Ami cut in before she could reply. "Sailor Pluto you can't be serious!" she cried. "They're druggies! They'll corrupt her virgin mind-"

"Hey now!" Serena laughed defensively. "The 'V' word does not apply to me anymore thank you very much!" Almost suddenly the room was engulfed by an eerie silence and judging by the looks of her fellow mates Serena felt as if she made a huge mistake.

"Serena!" Luna gasped pawing at her face. "Save that for later this is impor-"

"You mean you DID IT?" Mina wailed throwing her arms up in the air, clearly excited. "Details girl, details!"

"Not here!"

"You did it with Darien I hope!" Rei's mouth was a few inches short of scraping the floor, she wasobviously startled by the news.

Serena was dumbfounded, just a little shocked the reaction she was receiving before Rei's comment floated in. "Waa? Who ELSE would it be Rei?" she stammered. "Lewbert the pizza guy!?"

"You never know these days Serena! And Lewbert always puts more pepperonis the pizza when you order it!"

Serena giggled a little on the inside, she didn't think her fake flirtatious jesters were that noticeable. She quickly stuck her nose in the air and turned the opposite of Rei. "Thats because I ask!"

"If by ask, you mean drop butterfly kisses like its Pearl Harbor then yes, you ask, Oh you have such nice manners Seri!" Mina, who still had arms in the air, shouted.

Serena peeked down from her nose when Lita started chuckling. What could have been so funny? Serena felt her tummy heating up, highly annoyed and confused about why this was such a big deal. What was the big deal? They were suppose to be her friends..her mature eighteen year old friends--the girls she's spent every day with for the past 4 years-- friends! Her big mouth seemed like a probable suspect! Why couldn't she just shut button it closed for periods at a time; Serena was growing impatient with the immature behavior...when did that ever happen?

Lita's cackling brought Serena up from the hell she was simmering in.

"I thought it was pretty obvious!" Lita blurted out laughing a bit harder. "I mean she's a different woman look at her!"

Thanks Lita...

The three girls stared long and hard trying to find something at look the slightest bit different.

Lita shook her head slowly. "Maybe it takes a rose to to see when a bud blooms..."

"Serena...when on earth...what..where..." Ami held her hand to her head. "Geez!"

"You know I bet it was last weekend...Studding at Dare's house in that tiny pink skirt...Easy access my friend!"

Everyone started laughing at the humor Rei added in her tone of voice. Everyone except Pluto...Serena felt somewhat at ease now, But it didn't last long, the Beatles...why the hell did they sound so damn familiar? Beatles...Beatles...Beatles...Serena searched her brain for some kind of clue to who they were. Darien liked the Beatles...Ami knew about them...she closed her eyes and searched some more. Saitama...There was a museum opening in Saitama in a few months...a Yoko Ono museum? Was he a Beatle? Why would a guy be named Yoko? Lennon...yes Yoko Lennon! Arg! No that wasn't it either! Lennon...James, George, John? Yeah..John Lennon! There was a John Lennon Museum opening in a few months! Now...was he a Beatle?

"Thanks Rei..." Serena laughed lightly before turning to the Time Guardian. "Where were we?"

A warm smile crept upon Sailor Pluto face. "Serena so...so many important decisions had to be made in each life of what would be known as the Beatles. So many freak accidents and decisions that the Sailors Neptune and Uranus had to go and correct it all. Only so much could be done before they went off to help kill the virus..."

"Wait!" Serena cried. "Michelle? Haruka? They've already been to the past? What are they doing now?!"

Another smile graced Sailor Pluto's face. "Serena, it was just too much work for you to do all by yourself, its mind boggling how if the slightest thing went wrong their wouldn't be a Beatles...perhaps there would have been...but the story would have been different. Suffice to say, they're would not be The Rolling Stones. Currently, they are in the late 1960's fighting the virus."

"Just what kind of virus are we talking about Pluto?" Rei asked nervously.

"You are cleaning up- disinfecting- what mess this...virus has left behind. Were not sure on what it is. Could be nothing but negative energy...or it could be something far worse."

Chills seemed to be contagious at this point.

"Serena, the date is February 8, 1694 and you will be in America. A Mr. George Harrison will be sick and will have to miss a rehearsal for a television program. Do what you must, anything and everything to meet and befriend The Beatles. They are by far the most important part of this whole mission, not to mention the hardest to become part of there inner circle! You will be granted with your Luna Pen, but just once! Magic with such power has to be extremely limited."

Serena felt a sick feeling of comfort wash over her. It was as if Pluto's words had the power to make her want to vomit. She quietly nodded her head wanting to get this over with. But Darien! Years with out Darien? When she was certain he was so close to asking her to be his life long partner...his permanent lover for literally the rest of his life. It wouldn't work, no way would she be able to make it. It simply wasn't and option!

"Will Darien be there Pluto?" she begged cursing her eyes to sting with tears. "Will we have to transform? How will we communicate?"

"What happens when I'm twenty?" Mina blurted out. The room fell silent and heads shifted to her direction. Mina flushed. "Well...after three years pass by I'll be twenty and Rei will be seventeen!"

Rei stood up straight. "Hey what?!"

Sailor Pluto sighed. It was only far to answer all the questions. She addressed Mina first. "You will all age together, so Mina when 1965 comes around and you turn twenty, Rei will also turn twenty...on her birthday of course. With the age I'm afraid comes the maturity, and when your mission is complete you will be transformed back into your current bodies, whether you act your age or not isn't up to me." Pluto sighed and turned to Serena, who was extremely hard to read at this point. Lately she's been able to cover her emotions quiet well, Pluto wished this wasn't one of those times.

"Serena I'm afraid you'll be alone. No contact with the Prince because he will be frozen in time."

Serena felt the world below her start to crumble. Alone? Without him? Her knees wanted to break and buckle at the same time, her heart was beating so hard she thought it would simply burst from the terrible news. She cant go 3 hours without talking to him, and the longest they've been apart recently was 2 day's on account of her grandmothers death last October, but even then they still talked! Serena took a jagged sigh and slowly slid to the ground...or well cloud, whatever.

"I'm sorry Pluto...I...I just can't, not with out him!"

"You can and you will!" Luna barked. "You are to be the Queen Serena, the Queen! You have to save the past to guarantee your future!"

"Not with out him! I cant I'm not strong enough!"

"Thats bull shit and you know it!" Rei yelled stepping out in front of her princess. Her face was crossed and her eyes were narrow, making one of the 3 faces she usually made.

There was her all over happy face, with a smile so big plastered on her face chainsaws and paint thinner wouldn't remove it, she was like an open window and was a sure sign of sweet heavenly goodness it had the power to make the lowest person feel warm and righteous. The second was her 'Sarcastic face', which sometimes could look dangerously like her 'happy face' the key was her eye brows, they were always extremely tight and over dramatic, her normal snarl and sneer she spit out only added character to her expression, one Serena saw so often she could predict it like the TV Guide.

Then last...was her 'Unbelievable' face but whats really unbelievable is how many things Rei finds unbelievable! It was impossible to have her talking in anything under a yell when she was in such a witchy mood. And, unfortunately for Serena, this look came in a variety of levels. The lowest was still somewhat dangerous, you could literally see her pupils shrink and her brows rocket to the top of her forehead, her lips rolled inwards and stayed there only parting to speak her harsh mind. The second stage was far worse, Tiny pupils, sharp brows and thin lips. She had some sort of wild talent to burn right threw your soul, yet let you know exactly what she was thinking behind those fiery eyes and after a minute of simmering she turned up the heat with her loud flaming words. If u weren't burnt then, and she still had gasoline to waste, then you had yourself a free ride to the 3 stage, or the 3rd degree as the scouts would call it. If you lucky you can watch her pupils disappear completely, her brows so high and thin they disappeared into her mass of raven bangs, and yet still had the effect of letting you know which ways they were moving, her voice boomed loudly at first releasing all of her built up anger and scorching your face with it, and then, after her lips would come back into focus they would tighten again and her eyes would pierce right into your soul scorching you with low words of pure hatred, that tear you from the inside out.

"Last year he died Serena! He didn't call you or anything, but you managed! You managed to save him, and us, and the starlights, the Planet from Galaxia! That was you." Thank god...it was only a first degree burn, at least thats how it started.

"Rei..." Serena sobbed a bit sourly. "...Our souls are so entwined its almost scary and unreal to behold. He and I both know...that Crystal Tokyo is right around the corner...and the pressure of our world rests on his shoulders...on his timing...on our love." Serena was a shocked at her vocabulary. Maybe it was the princess in her ready to burst out.

Rei didn't wait a second and Serena flinched when she spoke again. "Well the weight of the world is on YOUR shoulders now! Damn it Serena, it wont be long, Your love if anything will be stronger when you return!"

"Did you hear anything I said!?" Serena cried, her face hardening a bit. "I cant go on with half a soul..."

"You did before."

"I didn't know!"

"Maybe you should have!" Rei's voice was reaching its peak and her eyebrows were almost as high as her voice.

"You don't know anything do you Rei?!" Serena stared coldly back at Rei, meeting her hazardous eyes. "Maybe I did...and maybe I didn't want to believe it."

Rei's voice lowered as she entered the third degree. "Thats just like you Serena, always running away...Well if your truly soul mates you should have felt when your lover died last year, huh? Did you feel anything when we died Serena? For you. For the world...the Universe did you feel a thing--"

"Thats fucking enough Rei!" Mina was yelling now. "Leave her alone! Whats your deal? Have some compassion!"

Rei looked a bit apologetic and lowered her heated gaze to the floor, where she messed with the fabric on the end of her white shirt.

"I was out of line, I'm sorry." she whispered, and slowly met her princess with soft eyes. That was another thing about Rei, always the first to apologize when she was extremely out of line. She surprised Serena, as well as everyone else by kneeling down and bowing in front her. "Please...I'm so sorry."

Serena smiled. "Your fine Rei, and your always their to slap reality in my face..."

"No, Serena I was thoughtless and rude, don't even think about forgiving me without evaluating my actions."

Serena flinched. "I will never evaluate you, or any of my friends. Forgiveness is in my heart for every one, especially you!"

They were both smiling, happy to get past such an unexpected spat.

"So, will you go?"

"It's a long time..."

"You'll have a long future...maybe...if you come."

Serena lowered her head and raised it to meet Pluto's. "Anything else we need to know?"

The room sighed with relief.

"You'll each be given a bag, with a communication watch, a book of important events, and a few other things to help you threw your journey. No transformation, though the power will present itself if needed."

"That's all then?" Lita asked calmly.

"Yes, I'm afraid it is. " Pluto replied in the same tone. She raised her staff high as if she were parting sea's, and then used all her might to slam if down threw the clouds the girls were floating on, like a harpoon into cutting deep into the layers of the ocean. Pluto took a sharp step backwards, as soon as she did 5 doors shot up and her staff returned to her hand.

Ami stood in front of a door with picture of New York on it. "I take it this is my…um next stop?" she stuttered a little afraid to open it.

Next to her Ami's door stood Lita's; hers a guitar and a star placed on it.

"Alright then…what are these for?" she asked highly confused. "Is this how we get out of this weird place?"

"Hush Lita." Rei examined her door, it had and the popularized Rolling Stone mouth logo on it. "Interesting…" she whispered afraid to touch or approach it.

Mina looked terrified as the silver door taunted her with "Marquee Club" printed across the door.

Serena frowned at her symbol containing 4 raggedy out dated mop tops. What on earth was that there for? "I don't know you guys."

"Yes you do." Rei's voice filled everyones ears, and spoke their minds."Your ready."

"Right."

"Remember girls, your correcting the past! Please don't get caught up in the tangles of the glamorous life of these rock stars."

"That goes twice for you Serena." Ami spat rather harshly.

"Call each other when you arrive, this is so important...Work together, come together, be together, mind, body and soul. You cant do it alone."

Serena coughed. "You can say that again."

Lita's voice was strong, and if you couldn't see her hand shaking terribly would would think she was more than ready to commit years of her life to the past. "Ready Scouts?"

"Ready." they replied in unison.

And so the scouts, scared enough as they were; twisted the silver doorknobs, and identically dropped billions of feet threw the clouds...into the past.

I understand that many of you cannot review twice, feel free to email me.
