AN: Set in first season in Sailor Moon. This follows the Dragon Ball MANGA
time line. (The manga I read is translated to another
language, not English. So patience if I spelled somethin wrong.)
There's a slight change though: Usagi is 16 NOT 14.
I'm also totally messing up the SM timeline. ^-^

Introduction

Sailor Moon dodged the youma's energy blast.
It nearly hit her.
Nearly.
She cursed under her breath as yet another one of the youma's attacks
went over her head. She was growing tired of all the dodging. But her
wand lay too far away from where she was standing. Her only chance
of survival was to dodge and move her way over there at the same time.
And sure enough, when a blast hit close to her right, she ducked and rolled
over to her left, inches away from where her wand laid.
Unfortunately, the youma knew what she was planning to do and was clever
enough to blast her from both sides, causing her to fall back.
She hit the ground hard.
The sharp stones did not go easy on her tender flesh.
They cut through her skin like a knife and she cringed as the pain registered
in her brain. She bit her lip and stood up, staggering a little.
The tiger-shaped youma smiled, thinking that it was finally time to finish
the Senshi of the Moon off. That is, before it struck.
Moon didn't know what it was exactly.
The thought that it was a red rose did cross her mind, Tuxedo Kamen's
entrances are always at the last, desperate minute. Only this time,
it had not been a rose that had saved her life.
It was a man that stood between her and the youma.
He carried a long blade on his back, his long lavender hair tied neatly,
he wore dark pants and a jacket with the Capsule Corps written on the
upper right arm of it. She couldn't see his face from where she stood.
He moved his hand to reach to his blade on his back. After he had grasped
the handle of the blade, he drew it out and with speed quicker than the naked
eye, although still can be seen through Sailor Moon's Lunarian eyes, he
moved to the youma and with quick swordstrokes he had cut the youma into pieces.
Sailor Moon couldn't resist the urge to gasp. The man seemed to have noticed
her presence all of a sudden. She gulped, as he slowly turned around and
revealed a handsome face. He had lilac eyes, that was covered slightly by his
matching colored bangs. His eyes were filled with concerned as he walked over
to her. And before she knew it, he took her right hand and examined it.
It was covered in blood from the cuts she recieved and was bruised at various
places.
"The cuts are pretty deep." He told her, looking directly into her blue
eyes. She could only nod, not trusting her voice, afraid it might break at any
second and she would humiliate herself. He reached for his pocket and took out
a small white pouch. From it, he took out a...bean? He gave it to her.
"Eat this."
She eyed the bean in her hand, unsure of whether she should eat it or not.
She didn't know the man, he could be an enemy! But there was something about
him that told her that he wasn't an enemy. The same feelings she felt for Tuxedo
Kamen. And before another thought, she put the bean in her mouth and swallowed.
Her eyes widened as she felt recharged. Her wounds were healed and she felt better
than ever. "Nani? How did-" She didn't finish. The man smiled.
"That was a senzhu. We use that a lot while we're fighting." He explained.
"We?" She asked. He nodded.
"Yes, the Z fighters."
"Z fighters? Nani? I don't understand!"
He grinned and looked at her, amused. "You will soon." He said.
"Uh...I will?" She asked, confused. He didn't answer, but kept the smile.
He then put his index and middle finger to his forehead and bid her goodbye, before
disappearing off somewhere. She scratched her head, looking around her in a somewhat
surreal way. She quickly detransformed and looked at the night sky.
"Oh dear. Mother, what do you have for me this time?" She asked with a sigh to the
smiling moon.
"NANI??? You fought a youma all by yourself???" Shrieked Mina. The rest of the senshi
team went pale as they looked around her, trying to see whether anyone heard them.
Luckily for Minako, no one did. Usagi nodded.
"Yes. I contacted you several times, but no one answered!" Usagi exclaimed.
"Still, you shouldn't have done that, Usagi!" Exclaimed Rei.
"Yes, you could have gotten seriously injured, Princess." Ami told.
Usagi let out a frustrated sigh. "Stop calling me Princess!" She snapped.
Ami was taken back. "Usagi," began Mina, after a pause.
"Gomen ne, Ami-chan. I'm still upset." She explained. Ami nodded.
"Of course Usagi-chan." She said, smiling. Though her smiled wavered a little.
Usagi closed her eyes. She had been so sensitive to everything lately.
After the abduction of Tuxedo Kamen or her Endymion and finding out the whole truth
about their past, she had been in an emotional crisis. A sort of walking time bomb.
She could bawl at any second, but most of the time, she usually let the bomb explode
on a time scale...when she gets home from school. Her concentration had been running
low, which would explain why she couldn't even finish off a low class youma and why
her friends are so worried about her getting hurt. Of course, the fact that she's the
Princess could be one of the factors contributing to that. When she opened her eyes again,
she saw four pairs of concerned eyes looking back at her. She pasted on her usual smile
and let out a laugh. It was forced, but neverthless, sounded genuine.
"Minna! Don't look at me like that!" She exclaimed through her laughter.
At the sound of her laughter, the girls cheered up a little. After all, it had been some
time since Usagi had laughed. "Gomen, Usagi-chan but we are worried about you." Explained
Mako. Usagi nodded. "I know. But I'm getting there minna, thanks to you." She told.
And it was true. She was getting there. Though not that near to it. She looked at her
watch and was glad that it was time to go home. "I've got to go home minna, Okaa-san
will have a fit if I don't go home on time." She explained. The girls nodded.
"We know Usa-chan. We'll see you tomorrow." Mako said.
"Yup! See ya girl friend!" Chirped Mina. Usagi let out another laugh and waved at them.
"Ja ne, minna!"
It had been easy to fool her friends, but she certainly cannot fool herself.
She was a wreck. She cannot focus on fighting and nearly got herself killed because of
it. She wanted to smack herself upside the head for not concentrating enough.
She should have! What if innocent lives were in danger? She wouldn't have been able
to save them! Or herself for that matter. She wanted badly to get things over with.
She wanted Mamoru back.
She blamed herself for his abduction.
She should have held on to him.
She had him in her arms as he laid there.
If she only held on to him tighter...
If only she had seen Kunzite...
If only she had acted faster...
If only...
She squeezed her eyes shut for the upteenth time that day, then let out a long sigh.
No use in crying over spilt milk, right? As Usagi looked up to the sky, she saw the
twinkling lights of the stars appearing. And as she looked at the stars, she made a wish.
A wish, she didn't know anyone would ever hear.
Let alone make it come true.
Give me happiness.
Give me a second try.
Let me live again.
What exactly Fate had in mind, no one will ever know.
The future had already been altered with the arrival of one the Z-fighters into the
senshi's dimension. And with the wish of Usagi, the portals of time are uneased.
And the Guardian of Time, Pluto, is distraught.
Never has she seen such disturbances in the Time Stream before.
"Kami-sama! What is going on?" She asked, as she tried to concentrate in locating
the source of the disturbance in the Time Stream.
Her efforts proved to be useless, however, as no answer came.
'Let it be, Senshi of Time.' Whispered a voice.
"Who is there?" Pluto demanded.
'I'm afraid I cannot reveal myself just yet, my friend. But I will tell you this,
do not worry if one that is important to you disappears. She will be all right.' It said.
Pluto drew a sharp breath. One that is important to her?
No one is more important to her than Chibi Usa and....Serenity!
"What are you talking about? What of Serenity?" She demanded.
The voice chuckled. 'I am only granting her wish, Jikan no Senshi.'
Pluto did not like what she was hearing.
"What wish?" She asked in a strangled voice.
'That, my dear senshi, is none of your business. It is between your Princess and me.'
"I am one of the eight planetary senshi that guard her! It IS my business to know!"
She shouted, her anger rising. A rush of power went through the time stream because
of this. And this caused Pluto to know EXACTLY what was causing the Time Stream to
react in such a way. "Iie." She whispered.
'Oh, but it's true, Pluto. It is.'
She shook her head, eyes unbelieving as she saw the truth.
"It cannot be! IT CANNOT BE!"
'You have seen what you wanted to see. That is enough...for now.' It paused.
'You will find out more in due time, Pluto. But until then, do not interfere with
anything that happens. It is out of your hands from now on.' And it left.
Leaving only Pluto to stare into the fallen darkness and crumbling to the ground.
"Dearest Serenity...What will we do?" She whispered, as the tears escaped and flowed
down her face.

Chapter 5 or six.
