A Twist in Time

Summary: Neo Queen Serenity is sent back into the past by accident. Somehow the time travel has altered the past and Serena and Darien are at the brink of never seeing each other again. Can Neo Queen Serenity put the pieces back together before it's too late? And will she be able to get back to the future in time?

Chapter 1: Prologue


BOOM!

A loud scream could be heard throughout the palace walls. Serenity's head shot up to see one of her guards blot through the large steel door gasping for breath. He knelt immediately and then lifted his head to speak.

"Your highness, the palace is…the palace is under attack." he replied shakily, still kneeling on the cold floor.

Serenity's crystal blue eyes widen a bit. They were under attack, but by whom? To her knowledge the last enemy they fought was killed and there were no other enemies that wanted to take over her kingdom, at least to her knowledge. She took a quick glance to her right giving her husband a concern look while he just returned her worried gaze with a charming smile. She then turned back to the guard in front of her. No matter what the situation she still had to maintain her cool.

"Gather the troops and prepare to fight!" she yelled sternly, getting onto her feet.

The man exited the throne room immediately and headed towards the battlefield. Serenity sighed wondering who could possibly be fighting them. She placed her hand on her forehead out of frustration before closing her eyes. The young queen stood still thinking back on all the battles her friends and family had gone through over the years. Brushing back her blond bangs she thought over the situation some more. Something just wasn't right.

The queen turned towards her husband giving him a skeptical look. He got to his feet and made his way towards her coming to her immediate right. She frowned and looked up at him.

"Serenity, you stay here." he muttered, placing his gloved hands on her exposed shoulder, "I will get the Sailor Scouts to fight with me."

"But, why Darien? I want to fight."

"I'm sorry Serenity. You have not recovered from our last battle." he stated, taking her into his arms while brushing her blond bangs out of her face, "I do not think you are healed enough to fight. Our last battle caused your body great damage and I do not want to risk you getting hurt again."

He spoke with such concern as his midnight blue eyes gazed lovingly at her crystal blue ones.

She sighed and stared at him sadly.

"But Dar-" she began but was cut off as her husband gave her a passionate kiss on the lips.

She mumbled something to herself and then kissed him back, wrapping her arms tightly around his neck. When they broke apart he immediately smirked and dashed out of the room leaving her standing still in shock.

'My love.' she thought, placing her hands close to her chest.

Serenity made her way back up towards her throne and sat down in deep thought. Who could be attacking the kingdom and why? She frowned wondering if her friends would be able to defeat the enemy without her or the Imperial crystal but she quickly reasoned in her head that they would do just fine without her. A few minutes later another loud booming sound echoed throughout the hallway. Serenity immediately made her way to her feet rushing down the small steps that led up to the throne. She turned to the doorway hearing the scout's voices in the distance.

"Jupiter Thunder Shattering Evolution!"

"Mercury Ice Spark!"

"The scouts." she whispered, rushing towards the Silver Imperial crystal that lay securely in a small case up ahead.

Her white strapless dress trailed to the floor as she stood in front of the glass case gazing at it dully. Why couldn't things just stay peaceful? Even just for a little while? Slowly, she opened the case and reached for the silver crystal, holding it firmly in her grasp.

'I need your power once again Silver crystal.'

Another explosion followed instantly blasting the door away. Serenity gasped upon seeing both Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Mercury lying on the floor with minor cuts and bruises trailing all over their arms and legs. Particles of the door could be seen lying to the side of the room. The queen's eyes widen as she watch Sailor Mercury cringed from the pain she was feeling in her side while Sailor Jupiter struggled to sit up.

"Sailor Mercury! Sailor Jupiter!" she cried, rushing towards them.

"Neo Queen Serenity, get out of here!" the brown ponytail haired girl, known as Sailor Jupiter yelled clutching her leg dangerously.

Her green mini sailor skirt was slightly ripped revealing a major gash on her leg.

"Sailor Jupiter, I cannot leave you guys." she stated sternly, turning her eyes towards the empty hallway, "Where is Darien?"

"He's injured somewhere up in the hallway. We were just blasted here by the enemy's attack. We're trying to hold them off as best as we can." Sailor Mercury whispered, staggering to her feet. She gave the blond queen a weak smile and crossed her hands in front of her face, "Go on your highness. Sailor Jupiter and I will handle them."

'What about Mars and Venus? Are they all right?' the blond queen thought sadly.

"Them?" she echoed.

"They're from the Nega Moon." Sailor Jupiter replied, letting out a deep exhale.

Her left leg was bleeding profusely but she tried her best to ignore the pain regardless. Serenity gasped. The Nega Moon? How could it be them?

'All inhabitants of that kingdom have been dead for years.' she thought while helping Sailor Jupiter onto her feet.

Sailor Jupiter was almost to her feet when Serenity turned her eyes up towards the doorway hoping to see her husband enter the room. Instead, she gasped immediately upon the sight that lay before her eyes. There in front of her stood a tall man with bluish white hair and piercing violent eyes. He strode into the throne room with such pose, grace and elegance. One would think that he came from a line of royalty. His violet eyes locked with hers and for a moment she felt as if she had frozen in her position.

"Serenity." Sailor Jupiter whispered.

The young queen's face grew grim as she gazed at the man whom had a smug look on his face. Her blue eyes narrowed in shock while her fellow scouts turned to the direction she was looking at. Their eyes both widen as well in shock. How could this be possible?

"I'm sorry to be a bother to you, your highness." the man replied, in a calm voice, "But I've come back to finish what I've started a few years ago."

~*~HALLWAY~*~

"Venus Shine Love Illuminate!"

Darien shook his head slightly from the pain he felt and immediately rose to his feet. He couldn't remember much, it all happened so fast. The last thing he remembered was rushing out of the throne room and into the hallway to head towards the garden. Only to be thrown back by a great force knocking him into a statue that stood close to the wall. He exhaled in frustration after hearing Sailor Venus's attack. He could tell by the echo in the hall that she wasn't too far ahead of him but that didn't make him feel any better. After hearing that voice, the voice of a man whom wanted to claim his wife as his own, he knew deep down that something indeed was not right. How could he be alive after all this time?

"Your Highness!"

The king immediately turned around to see two soldiers running towards him. One held a battered Sailor Mars in his arms and the other held a small bag in his grasp.

Darien's eyes widen in fear. The Sailor Soldier of Mars' skin was pale and completely bruised with gashes. A few small burnt marks could be seen on her lower legs.

"What happened to her?" the king demanded, in anger.

"Your Highness, we found her not too far outside the palace gates." one replied, slowly setting the raven-haired girl onto the floor, "It appears that she was searching for small lady and was ambushed. At least that's what she said before she passed out. We found the princess in the garden."

Darien knelt down to the sailor soldier and brushed his hand across her face. She was warm and he felt contented to know that she was all right and had just passed out from exhaustion. He let out a sigh as he examined her limbs to determine if she had any broken bones. Her face was bruised with dirt and grass and her sailor uniform was completely messed with dirt. Part of her short skirt was burnt, probably from her fireball attacks.

The king's eyes moved upwards towards the two soldiers who shook in fear at the intense glare that he shot their way.

"And Rini, where is she?"

The brown haired soldier shook in fright, "She's right behind me, your highness."

The king arched his eyebrows in fear wondering if his mysterious two and a half year old baby girl would make her way onto the scene. And when she did not all fear of losing her flashed through his mind. As soon as the soldier realized that the toddler wasn't behind him, he ran back a few meters to find her sitting on the floor. The soldier instantly picked the young child up and brought her back to her father, smirking a little for forgetting that he had placed the child on the floor in order to pick up the bag he had in his grasp.

Darien took his child in a quick flash and hugged her tightly before turning back towards the soldiers.

"Take Sailor Mars to the infirmary immediately and be on the look out for intruders."

"Yes Sir!" they yelled, and in an instant disappeared down the dark hallway.

Darien cuddled his daughter in his arms while he gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead. The little toddler just giggled and gripped her father's collar tightly.

"Don't worry Rini, everything will be alright." he whispered as the small child hugged him even tighter.

"Dada!" the pink haired baby shrieked, causing the king to stop dead in his tracks.

He turned around slowly to see two females staring at him with mysterious grins on their faces. They both wore skin fitted pink and blue body suits while floating lightly in the air.

Darien narrowed his eyes in an instant.

"Well hello there." one of the female replied, in a deep seductive voice, "Aren't you charming?"

She smirked while winking her left eye at the king. Darien frowned while clutching his daughter firmly in his grasp.

"Reiki, stop flirting with him." her twin sister replied with a frown on her face while placing her right hand on her hip, "We have work to do."

"Ah, calm down Timiki." she stuck out her tongue at her twin, "Can't you let me have a little fun?"

Reiki rolled her eyes, "No."

Darien growled at the twins while shifting Rini to his left side. With his right hand, he slowly pulled out his sword from its sheath.

"Who are you?" he asked dangerously, preparing himself for battle.

"Humph! We'll ask the questions around here!" Timiki yelled, narrowing her eyes and raising her right hand into the air as she snapped her fingers.

Before the king knew what happened, his daughter began floating into the air towards both females.

"Rini!" he yelled, rushing towards her.

He tried to make an attempt to reach his child but before he could electrical sparks zapped him from behind. He groaned and fell to the floor with a loud thump, softly mumbling Rini's name.

Reiki floated and landed firmly on her feet. Her pointy heels clicked against the pavement with each and every step she made as she drew closer to the fallen king. She quickly rushed to his side and checked his pulse. When she was satisfied that he was alive she let out an exasperated sigh. Slowly, she rubbed her hand across his short black hair.

"He's so handsome." she mused while her sister rolled her eyes in disgust.

Her sister really did have a problem. Almost every guy she met, she fell for him. Reiki turned to her sister to see her holding the small princess who was crying desperately for her father. She wailed loudly while pulling on Timiki's pink hair.

"Are you two finished?" came a voice, instantly startling them.

"Sapphire!" both girls turned to the young man, practically drooling at the site of him.

Reiki almost tripped at the site of him but tried her best to control herself.

"Sapphire, at last you're here."

"Stop playing around you two the prince is waiting." he reprimanded.

"Yes Sapphire."

The said man turned to leave but stop in his tracks as he heard both sisters bickering. He rolled his eyes in disgust and sighed.

'Not again.'

He folded his arms while he listened to their continuous banter.

"He's mine I tell you!"

"No he's not. You like the king."

"Sapphire is just like the king. Can't you see they look alike?" Reiki spat at her sister.

"What makes you think I care? Sapphire is mine you hear and that's final!"

Sapphire groaned and walked ahead of them down the hallway as the two continued bickering while carrying the unconscious king and crying princess with them. The young man closed his eyes and opened them to see a strand of lime green hair in front of his face.

"Having problems with the ladies, eh Sapphire?"

A loud infectious laughter followed causing the dark blue haired man to cover his ears.

"Emerald." he whispered.

"The one and only." she smirked, flipping over in the air and landing immediately on her feet.

"You're finally back!" he smirked. A faint blush could be seen on his face.

"Yes and I am ready for my revenge!" she yelled, laughing hysterically.

"Let's go then. We don't want the prince to get impatient." Sapphire frowned.

"Right."

~*~THRONE ROOM~*~

"Diamond!" Serenity shrieked, looking at the man who had bluish white hair.

He smirked inquisitively at her while taking a few steps forward. Serenity tensed a bit. She could feel the uneasiness in the room but tried her best to ignore it. Sailor Jupiter winched as she felt the queen tense her movements. The pain in her leg increased tremendously and she immediately cried out hysterically in pain. The queen tried her best to steady her but before she knew what happened, the sailor soldier was pushed harshly out of the way, landing dangerously over the throne chair bar a few feet behind the queen.

"Sailor Jupiter!"

"You need not worry yourself with her." Diamond replied, instantly appearing a few inches in front of her face, "You have more pressing matters at hand."

Her gazed lingered on her best friend before turning back towards him. Her light blue eyes stared up at him in defiance. Sailor Mercury could be seen a few feet behind her struggling to stay on her feet. Who did he think he was anyway? The blond haired queen frowned as she realized that he was using his powerful eye once again. She stood frozen in her position while her gaze was still fixated on him. Her white a-line strapless dress clings to her slim figure as she stood still in horror. What was she going to do?

"My dear Neo Queen Serenity, you are even lovelier in your youth." he whispered, lifting her chin upwards while placing a soft kiss on her forehead.

He glided his hand smoothly through her long golden hair. The queen stood still in her position while two tear drops descended from her eyes.

'What am I going to do?' she thought, bitterly, 'The crystal and I are not strong enough to fight off his power this time.'

There was silence for a while as the two stood still in an intense stare, the queen wondering how she would be able to defeat this monster and the Diamond gloating in victory that he had won the battle.

"Get your hands off of her."

Diamond turned his eyes in the direction of the voice. It was female that he could tell but there was no one in front of him, so he couldn't tell who it was.

"Mars Starlight Fire Strike!"

A large fireball flew towards the couple in the form of an eagle. Diamond saw it coming rapidly in his direction and he disappeared out of its path before it scorched him. As soon as Diamond made his escape the young queen was released from his mind control. She saw the flame coming towards her and fainted immediately, landing sideways with little pressure to the floor. Sailor Mars rushed towards her side, limping a little.

"Neo Queen Serenity…"she whispered, shaking her lightly, "Are you alright?"

The blond haired queen slowly opened her eyes and turned to her raven-haired friend. Sailor Mars' violet eyes gaze with concern at the queen while she helped her up into a sitting position.

"Thanks Raye."

"Don't mention it, Serena." she smirked, helping her onto her feet, "Now let's get these Nega trash!"

"Right."

Neo Queen Serenity raised her right hand into the air while holding the crystal out towards Diamond.

"Moon Crystal Silver Cleanse!"

A bright white light illuminated from the crystal casting everyone into a statue like form. The atmosphere in the room immediately became still and silent as time froze for a few seconds. Everyone else in the room except for the king, queen and sailor soldiers was affected by the crystal. The queen made her way towards the king who had entered the room with Sailor Mars. He was on the floor bending over in pain. When she reached him, she cuddled him in her arms, watching him cringe constantly in pain. Neo Queen Serenity scanned the throne room. Sailor Mars could be seen with Sailor Mercury aiding Sailor Jupiter who was seriously injured. Sailor Venus was the only one unaccounted for and her daughter Rini.

A few seconds later, the power of the silver cleanse vanished causing time to maintain its original structure. The young queen gasped as she saw Diamond begin to move from his statue like position. He was about to say something when the door blotted open revealing her daughter Rini, four intruders and Sailor Venus who was knocked out at the moment. One of the intruders threw Sailor Venus onto the floor. A gasp escaped her mouth as she rolled onto the tile floor in pain.

"Venus!"

Diamond moved forward with a large smile plastered on his face. He opened the palm of his hand and a black orb appeared. He threw it towards the floor and it grew bigger by the second extending into a giant warp hole. The force of it caused various items in the room to shake and shatter in its path. The hole instantly attached its self onto a wall as it grew bigger by the moment.

"This is the time, Sailor Moon!" he replied, referring to her old name.

The queen frowned. Besides, no one had ever called her that since she became queen. It was Neo Queen Serenity for goodness sake not Sailor Moon! She narrowed her blue eyes and stared at the black hole.

"The time has come to say goodbye to your love ones!"

"No!" she cried desperately, holding her husband even tighter in her grasp.

Diamond paused for a moment staring at her tear stricken face. His dark eyes traveled to the man she held in her arms. His head lay on her lap while his short black bang of his hair covered his closed eyes. The bluish white haired man frown upon seeing the way the queen hugged her husband. His face flushed red with rage and jealousy. How could she choose a man like that over him? A man who couldn't even protect his own family? There was immediate silence in the room as he walked towards the couple with vengeance in his eyes.

"Serenity…" he began, stopping a few inches away from her, "Leave him. He isn't worth your time and affections. Come with me and let us live together in harmony for all eternity!"

He outstretched his hand to hers but she knocked it away in anger.

"Never!" she growled at him, moving her husband's head from her lap and gently placing it onto the floor.

She took up the Silver Imperial Crystal from the title floor and clenched it in her right hand. It was now or never. She had to save her kingdom and family even if it cost her life. She could not let this man come back to take away all that she had worked so hard for. What was worse was that he was supposed to be dead. She sneered at him, anger coursing through her veins. What was his purpose for being here and how was it possible for him to be alive?

"How dare you Diamond? I will never denounce my love for Darien, no matter what you do."

"Is that so? My love, surely you know that I have other means of persuasion." he grinned as he unleashed his eye on her once again.

She froze in an instant. Neo Queen Serenity could hear the other scouts trying their best to fight off the villains while the black hole continued to grow even stronger. It was pulling them all towards it. Rini was still with one of the twins but Sailor Mars came onto the scene without being detected and knocked out Timiki grabbing the pink haired child with her.

Sailor Mars began running with the young princess towards the king but came in the direction of the black orb. Slowly, the force of the warp hole began dragging both Sailor Mars and the princess towards its dangerous clutches.

'I can't give up now. I won't let him win.' the queen thought with determination.

'MOON CRYSTAL POWER!'

A bright white light illuminated the entire room coming from the crystal, almost blinding Diamond. He raised his hands upwards trying his best to block out the light but unfortunately it wasn't working. His long white cape did little to hide the light as well, it was too strong. He backed away and saw the queen walk away with confidence towards the warp hole that was pulling her loved ones away from her. She used the power of the crystal to push Raye and Rini away from the dangerous hole.

Serenity sighed, coming in close contact with the black hole. She raised the crystal forward trying her best to close it with the power of the crystal but unfortunately it wasn't working. She bit her lip when she felt her body being pulled towards it.

'I have to stop it. Please Imperial crystal, lend me your power!'

Turning backwards a bit, she could see Diamond cringing on the floor from the effects of the crystal. The other scouts were still fighting and few had beaten the intruders. Sailor Mars was close to the king giving him his daughter back while she got ready to help her fellow comrades. She turned back again to see various items being sucked into the hole. She attempted to step backwards but the force was too strong.

"Darien!" the queen screamed as the crystal instantly flew out of her hand and into the warp hole, "Please...Darien…Darien please take care of Rini!"

She yelled as tears welled up in her eyes. Her screams caught the attention of her fellow teammates and they looked at their queen in horror to see her being pulled away from them. Sailor Jupiter and Venus ran towards her trying their best to catch her left hand that was stretched out to them but it proved futile, their bodies as well were being pulled but they kept their ground, not being as close as the queen was. In a quick moment, Neo Queen Serenity's body began lifting into the air due to the force while she screamed in fear of the unknown. Where did this hole lead to?

"I'm sorry. I can't hold on!"

"QUEEEN SERENITTTTTY!"

She cried desperately at losing her loved ones to the evil clutches of Diamond but she couldn't stop it. Half her body was practically into the time warp and slowly disappearing from everyone's sight in the room.

"DARIEN, RINI, SCOUTS!"

The king looked up in shock as he watched his wife disappear completely through the time warp.

"SERENAAAAAAAA!
