Hello all. I was asked by someone if I would re-write this story. Well I had been thinking about it so I might as well do it. This was my first story and it means a lot to me. so I'm going to try and keep some of the stuff the same.
Stella in Time.
This is my story and it means that some of the things in this story are hard for me to say. I hope you understand everything. Someone had thrown my owner, friend into a time hole. Please listen to my story.
The city is dark and quite. Being scared of something behind me was causing me to run. I looked ahead of me to see a furry gray butt and tail. I was falling behind. My sister, the furry gray butt and tail, looked over her shoulder and slowed down. She slowed enough for her to be able to talk to me. I glanced at my sister, Diana.
"Stella, how are you holding up?" she asked me easily.
"I'm…scared. What…am…I going…to…tell her…father?" I asked gasping.
She was about to say something when we heard someone scream.
"Mother!" Diana yelled as she left me in the dust.
I followed my sister as fast as I could. I spotted my sister standing at a corner. I slowed down, trying to catch my breath. I padded softly up to her, looked around her shoulder and nearly screamed myself. Diana covered my mouth with a paw. Guess I should tell you about the paws, fur and tails. See my family and me are cats. We're each a different color. As you could probably guess, Diana is gray. My mother is black as night while my dad is white as snow. All normal colors for cats. I on the other hand am not a normal color cat. I have navy blue fur. Don't know why that is. But we all two things in common, we each have a yellow crescent moon on our foreheads and we can talk.
We glanced around the corner and what we saw chilled us to our cores. Our parents were being held about 5 feet above the asphalt in a rope net. There was two people standing around the net. I could hear them talking to themselves. One person had long hair, what color I couldn't tell in this light. But they had something sticking up through their hair. The other person had shoulder length hair.
"Stella, come on. we need to go." Diana whispered to me. she was moving away from the corner.
"No wait." I said.
"Well well! Look what we have here. It's the cats. But where are the other two?" Asked the person with long hair.
The person who had just talked turned towards us and moved into a bit of light. I gasped. It was a woman. Her long hair was blood red. The things sticking out of her hair was a pair of horns. She barred her teeth showing small fangs. I could feel my heart beating against my ribs. I was praying that she hadn't seen me. I really despised this woman, the Water Buffalo.
"Stella. Let's go. Come on. We need to go to the palace." Diana was standing behind me whispering. She didn't know that Water Buffalo had turned around and was facing us.
While Diana was whispering to me something whizzed overhead. I looked up, than over at the net. Something ripped the net apart. Mother and dad fell to the ground. They didn't even look around, they took off running into the shadows.
"Run!" Diana yelled.
We ran. I thanked the person who had thrown the rose in my head. I knew that sooner or later I would be able to thank them in person. We contented to run in shadows heading toward the glowing crystal in front of us. We soon passed through an invisible barrier. Inside the crystal was hollow. This crystal was the Crystal Palace of Crystal Tokyo. We ran up to a door that had opened on its own. Three people were running toward the open door from the inside. All three of them were woman, well two women and one young girl. The two women had blonde hair. One had her hair up in 'meatballs' with long tails reaching to her feet. She wore a pure white dress that had no sleeves. A huge bow on the back made it look like she had wings. She also wore a crown that had a medium size red stone in it. The other blonde wore her hair down to her knees. A red bow held some of her hair around her ears back. She wore a uniform with a white body suit, a collar and skirt of orange, a bow on her chest was blue. She had a small tiara on her forehead. It held a small orange stone in the middle that sat between her eyes. Both blondes had blue eyes. The young girl had the same hairstyle as the one who wore the crown, only her hair was sugar pink. The tails that she wore curled inward toward her shoulders. She had red eyes. She had on a dress that was pink and white.
These three were special to us. The one wearing the crown was Neo-Queen Serenity. She ruled over Crystal Tokyo and Earth from her palace. The other blonde was Sailor Venus. The pink hair girl was the Crown Princess Serenity Usagi Chiba, a.k.a Small Lady, a.k.a Chibi-Usa.
"Luna!" Neo-Queen Serenity cried as Chibi-Usa picked up Diana. "What happen? Where's Jessi?"
"I'm okay. We have news about Jessi. Let's talk some where in private." Luna, mother, said stepping up the queen.
"Please just tell me where Jessi is." Neo-Queen Serenity asked again.
The Jessi that the queen kept asking about was her niece, Jessi Tsukino. Jessi is the daughter of her brother, Shingo Tsukino.
"Serenity I'm sorry to have to tell you this but Jessi is no longer here. She had been pushed into the past. When we got to the library we found out that the Water Buffalo had gotten there before we did. We got there in time to see her push Jessi into a time hole." Mother hung in her head.
Mother looked so ashamed. Why was she the one feeling ashamed, it's my fault that this had happen. I was supposed to watch over Jessi. Each cat in my family watched over someone. Mother was the guardian to Neo-Queen Serenity when she was known as Usagi Tsukino a.k.a Sailor Moon. Dad is was and still is the guardian to Sailor Venus. My sister takes care of Chibi-Usa. I'm supposed to watch over Jessi.
As mother and the queen were talking we were walking down a hall. We ended up in the throne room. There were other people in there. People who were wearing the same outfit as Sailor Venus. The colors were ranging from red and purple to green and pink.
"Artemis are you okay?" I heard Sailor Venus coo to dad. He was sitting in her arms.
"Yeah." Dad answered.
"But what are these rope burns on your fur?" She was rubbing his white fur.
"I have bad news everyone." Neo-Queen Serenity stopped all the talk in the room.
"Jessi is gone. She is now somewhere in the past." Mother told everyone as the circled us.
"What!" Everyone asked.
"Serenity, I'm going to send Stella after Jessi." Mother turned toward Neo-Queen Serenity. The queen looked at my mother like she was nuts.
"Luna are you feeling all right?" Dad asked
"Yes. I'm sure. I think Stella is ready for this.", Mother said,"She is supposed to watch over Jessi. Right?"
"Yes." Said Neo-Queen Serenity looking puzzled.
"But I would like to ask you a favor." Mother was now looking at me.
"What?" Neo-Queen Serenity asked.
"I want you turn Stella into a human." Mother said.
I heard everyone in the room gasp but not from myself. I was shocked at this idea. What was my mother talking about? Human? She wanted me to be turned into a human?
"Stella is ready for this. She is suppose to watch over Jessi." Mother was still looking at me.
"Mother I don't want to go. I'm still in training." I started to whine.
"Stella, stop that whining. You'll go. Please Serenity?" Mother had turned back to the queen.
"Okay." Neo-Queen Serenity nodded her head slowly, she than turned to her daughter, "Usagi please go get the crystal."
"Luna, why do you want Serenity to turn Stella human?" a black hair woman in a red uniform asked.
"Because Sailor Mars the Water Buffalo won't be looking for a human. She'll be looking for cat." Mother told the woman with black hair, Sailor Mars.
I looked around while they were talking. This was the place were I had been born and raised. I didn't want to leave. I turned to a door when I heard footsteps running back toward the room.
"Here it is mama." Chibi-Usa said as she came back into the room. She was carrying a sliver crystal.
"Thank you.", Neo-Queen Serenity said taking the crystal from her daughter. She turned toward me and pointed, "Stella stand over there."
I walked over to where she was pointing. I just stood there. I was shaking.
Neo-Queen Serenity held the crystal above her head. it started to glow with a white light. The light shoot toward me and as it wrapped around me it turned into a glow. I began to feel myself start to change. My fur vanished to leave cream color skin. I grew taller than I had ever dreamed I could be. When the glow went away I saw myself in a window. I was wearing a blue dress that went well with my hair. I had dark blue hair that was the same color that my fur had been. I had blue eyes that were lighter in color than my hair. They had been red before I changed.
"Mars. Mercury. Take her around and help her learn to walk." Neo-Queen Serenity asked as she watched me almost fall on my face as I tried to take a step.
"Sure." They both said as they grabbed my arms and held me up.
"I have something I need to do." Neo-Queen Serenity said turning to Chibi -Usa.
Sailors Mars and Mercury were walking me around the hall outside the throne room. I glanced at Sailor Mercury who was holding my right arm. Everything she wore was blue. Blue-collar, blue skirt, blue boots, she even had blue hair. I than glanced at Sailor Mars. She just gave me a soft smile.
By the time we re-entered the throne room I could walk on my own. I still couldn't move very fast. I looked around everyone was watching me. I stood still. Sailors Mars and Mercury walked over and joined the other two senshi. Mother, dad and Diana were sitting in front of them. Neo-Queen Serenity and Chibi-Usa were standing a bit from them.
"Well what do you think Stella?" Mother asked.
"It's okay." I mumbled.
"Stella please come here." A voice asked from behind me.
I turned around slowly. I knew that voice. Standing behind me was a woman, also wearing a sailor suit. Her collar and skirt was black. The bow on her chest was ruby red. Her skin was a tan color. She had long dark green hair that was pulled in a small bun on the top of her head. I swallowed hard. This sailor senshi was Sailor Pluto. I looked back over my shoulder at everyone who was standing there. Something was up. They were watching us.
"Stella open your hand." Sailor Pluto held out a hand.
I did as I was told. She dropped a key in to my hand. It was sliver in color. I looked at it closer. It had 3 little circles on the top. It was not the Crystal Key. That key, I knew was hanging around Chib-Usa's neck. Sailor Pluto had given it to her.
"This is the Key of Time. It will send you to any time you ask it too." She said, "But you must be careful with the key. Don't use it too much. That's all I can tell you. Hold it up and say 'Key of time take me to..' you can say the past or the future. The present is where ever you are."
"You can have a few min. if you like before you leave." Neo-Queen Serenity said putting a hand on my shoulder.
"Thank you." I nodded my head.
I walked over to a window. I didn't want to look at everyone just yet. I looked out at the city. Lights flickered from the buildings below. Diana came over to me. She jumped up on the windowsill next to me. I looked at her. I never taught that this might be the last time I would see her.
"Stella, I know that this is going to be hard." She said as Chibi-Usa joined us,"It was hard when I went back to the past. I was sacred."
"I remember that I was sacred too." Chibi-Usa said,"I missed my mom and dad so much. The first time I went back to get help. And when I came home I was so happy to see every one again. Then when I went back again I knew I would be back. But I still missed everyone. Your sister helped me. She was kind of hard on me, but I knew why."
"Stella?" asked someone from behind us. I glanced at the reflection in the window.
I turned around. King Endymion was standing there. He had black hair and blue eyes hidden behind a lavender mask. He wore pants and a tuxedo jacket that were also lavender. the tuxedo jacket covered a white tuxedo shirt. He was also wearing a cape that was white on the inside and lavender on the backside. I smiled at him. I could finally thank the person who freed my parents from the net.
"Papa!" Chibi-Usa hugged her dad.
"Is that really you Stella?" He asked me as he hugged his daughter back.
"Yes sir." I said looking down at the floor. I than looked up at him, "Thank you sir."
He threw me a wink. He knew what I was thanking him for.
"Stella?" Mother called to me from were she was sitting.
"Are you ready to go?" Sailor Pluto asked as I walked back over to them.
I nodded my head. I wasn't really ready to go but I knew that I would soon be turning home and I would have Jessi with me. I fell to my knees and hugged my parents. That was really weird. I quickly hugged my sister. When I got to my feet I quickly hugged everyone else.
"Stella, here I want you to have this." Neo-Queen Serenity was holding out a necklace to me. I took it and looked at it. It was a crescent moon. I put on the necklace and hugged her again.
I turned toward Sailor Pluto. She motioned me to stand next to her. I went over to her. She hugged me with one arm and than moved away. She nodded.
"Key of Time take me to the time and place where Jessi is!" I held up the key, yelling.
A bright light flashed around the top of the key. It flew up than came back down again, only behind me. It had formed into a black hole. It swirled in blackness, colors flashing through the black once and awhile. I turned back toward everyone.
"Stella come back to us." said Mother.
"Don't worry. I'll be back soon. I'll take good care of Jessi when I find her. I'll miss you all." I could feel tears forming in the corners of my eyes.
"Good-bye." everyone called to me.
I turned back toward the black hole. I swallowed, hard. I was thinking about everything that I would miss while I was somewhere in the past. I threw one more glance over my shoulder at my family, than walked into the black hole, into the past.
Well here we go. I re-wrote it. So I hope everyone enjoyed it. I will soon re-write the rest of the chapters. Please review it and tell me what you think.
