Prologue
Screaming could be heard from all over England as they panicked and feared someone who was out to kill them. Michiru, Setsuna, and Haruka planned on traveling around the world with their one year-old Hotaru after their victorious defeat of Master Pharaoh 90.
"Take Hotaru, Michiru! Get her somewhere safe!" Haruka screamed as she and Setsuna quickly transformed into Sailor Uranus and Sailor Pluto.
"I can't leave you Haruka! I'm not going to let Hotaru be raised without any of us!" Michiru protested placing Hotaru inside her nursery. Michiru quickly transformed into Sailor Neptune.
"Who are these people?" Sailor Pluto questioned as loud banging could be heard from outside their vacation home.
"No clue. I never imagined there could be other people magical like us," Sailor Neptune replied.
The Outer Senshi were suddenly invaded when a bomb of spells were suddenly hitting their home destroying most of the area. A shield was conjured protecting the Outer Senshi and Hotaru. Smoke and dust were floating everywhere making it impossible for everyone to see. A dark figure in a black cloak entered in the home with devil red eyes staring at the three senshis.
"Whoever you are, leave or you'll have to deal with us!" Sailor Uranus flared as the voice only laughed. More figures from behind wearing masks of death laughed along.
"Chronos Typhoon!" Sailor Pluto shouted in her usual deep voice as a gust of wind blew the invaders backwards.
"Impossible! They can do wandless magic!" hissed the intruder.
"Stay back or you'll feel our wrath!" Sailor Neptune shouted ready to burst her power right onto the intruder.
"You should fear me, for I am Lord Voldemort," the intruder rasped as he red eyes flashed.
"We're not afraid of you. We never heard of you, but we did face enemies far more powerful than you!" Sailor Uranus hissed back at Voldemort.
"I'd like to see you try," Voldemort smirked.
"Dead scream!" Sailor Pluto announced as a burst of light surged out of her garnet orb.
One of the invaders with Voldemort's gang burst into ashes as he screamed in agony.
"You've….destroyed my Death Eater!" Voldemort hissed knowing the three senshi's are powerful enough to defeat fifty of them.
"We need a plan to surround them and take them as ours. Their power is strong enough to kill us if we don't do something about it," Voldemort muttered to his Death Eaters.
"Crucio!" bellowed a female Death Eater.
Pluto was targeted first since Voldemort found her to be the agressive one.
"Pluto!" Uranus and Neptune shouted in unison as Pluto struggled to raise her garnet orb.
"Space sword power!" Uranus shouted holding out her sword as a golden planet orb of magic rolled towards Voldemort. Voldemort ducked along with several Death Eaters as the attack ended up destroying the building across from the Outer Senshis.
"Too slow," Voldemort growled as Pluto fell to the floor weak. Her garnet orb staff slipped out of her hands as one of Voldemort's Death Eaters quickly grabbed it. She then quickly changed back into her original form.
"Well done Bellatrix," Voldemort laughed as he ordered her to grab hold of Pluto.
"Pluto!" Uranus shouted as she was ready to generate another attack. But the two didn't realize that Death Eaters were behind them since Voldemort outnumbered them.
"Deep…" Neptune started until Uranus felt a strong pain at the back of her head as the sound of "Avada Kedavra" was heard by Neptune. Uranus fell to the ground with a thud as he sword bounced out of her hands.
"HARUKA!" Neptune shouted in horror watching Haruka fade back to her original form.
"Haruka….." Neptune trembled as Haruka barely opened her eyes. Voldemort smirked knowing that it was one of the senshi's weaknesses.
"Michiru…" Haruka said faintly in a weak tone. "Take…..Hotaru….somewhere safe."
"Haruka, I can't leave without you!" Neptune cried with tears streaming down her face.
"Michiru…" Haruka faintly said closing her eyes.
"Haruka! Haruka! Open your eyes!" Neptune said nudging Haruka. Then Hotaru starting weeping as Neptune quickly grabbed her glaring at Voldemort who grabbed hold of Setsuna and Haruka.
"This isn't over!" Neptune flared disappearing with Hotaru.
….
The moon was pretty full as Neptune appeared in a relaxing quiet place with nothing else but the full moon and a lake. Neptune felt sorrowful leaving Setsuna and Haruka behind. But she had to protect Hotaru.
"Neo Queen," Neptune said, as she gazed up at the full moon picturing Neo Queen Serenity staring down at her. "What should I do?"
"Ah, I see you've found out school of Witchcraft and Wizardry haven't you?" said an elder voice of a man. Neptune glanced back to see a man with an elder man with a long beard and dressed in robes that looked like he was some wizard.
"Are you another one of those invaders?! If so, you'll pay for Haruka and Setsuna….."
"No need to worry dear. I mean no harm," the man replied in a soothing voice.
"Who are you?" Neptune questioned.
"I'm Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore," Dumbledore introduced as Neptune's stubbornness calmed down a bit. "I've just received news about Voldemort coming to your home."
"How do you know that?" Neptune questioned eyeing Dumbledore suspiciously.
"I'm a wizard. A man that can do magic with a simple wave of a wand," Dumbledore said with his eyes twinkling.
"There's more magical people out there." Neptune said in her head with her eyes wide.
"Come. You look like you need shelter," Dumbledore said as he walked in the direction of a castle like building. Neptune held Hotaru tight knowing that she is stronger than these kind of magical people. But how can she be stronger when she let a group of weaker dark wizards conquer three powerful sailor guardians. As she thought about that, she thought about Haruka and the horrors she witnessed before Voldemort took her away along with Setsuna. She had to find them. But how was she going to find them when she has to raise Hotaru?
…
After walking in a palace that seemed more friendly and welcoming than expected, Neptune stepped inside Dumbledore's office explaining everything that happened. Dumbledore replied back explaining who Voldemort was and what dark things he did in his past life. Dumbledore also knew Neptune had a desire to look for Setsuna and Haruka through her expressions. He knew how she was feeling when she brought up Haruka.
"I see that you want to find them do you?" Dumbledore asked.
"Yes, but I don't want to leave Hotaru. The three of us were going to raise her…..together….." Neptune said frowning down at Hotaru who was asleep in her arms. Dumbledore knew she loved her as much as she loved Haruka.
"Would you be willing to find your two friends in order to raise a full loving family?" Dumbledore asked.
"Yes, but what about Hotaru. She was someone else before…." Neptune started explaining how she was Sailor Saturn and her ability and powers of destruction. Now that she was reincarnated, she could get a second chance so she could use her powers wisely.
"I see. Since she has magic powers, she can go to a school like this," Dumbledore started as he explained what the purpose of his school Hogwarts was for.
"It requires a simple wand?" Neptune asked.
"Indeed it does," Dumbledore replied.
"Then, if wand magic isn't as harmful as her original powers, then she'll be safe and wiser with her powers?" Neptune questioned. Dumbledore nodded.
"If you're willing to go out and find the other guardians, then do so if your heart desires," Dumbledore replied. Neptune smiled at the old wizard looking down at Hotaru.
"Hotaru…" Neptune said kissing her forehead. "Sir, would you please find her a home to stay in?" Neptune suddenly asked which was really unexpected.
"Are you sure you want to make this decision?" Dumbledore questioned.
"If Hotaru has to be raised alone without me, then she can find a family that will raise her while I find the other guardians."
"I see. You look like you were destined to protect this planet," Dumbledore started.
"Yes. Without the other guardians, our planet and moon kingdom would most likely fall," Neptune replied she took one last look at Hotaru with teary eyes. "This is farewell for now Hotaru. We will meet again," Neptune smiled handing the child to Dumbledore.
"Farewell…...Sailor Neptune," Dumbledore twinkled as Neptune grinned back disappearing out of sight.
…..
McGonagall boomed in Dumbledore's office two hours later with a sorrowful expression.
"Albus, the Potters…."
"Yes Minerva, they're gone."
Voldemort had given the Potters a visit threatening to kill their son, Harry James Potter due to a prophecy that was granted a sacrifice for power.
"Young Hotaru here, was about to be apart of their family until the tragedy," Dumbledore explained looking pitifully at Hotaru. Lily and James Potter offered to adopt Hotaru after finding about her an hour ago due to a message Dumbledore had sent them. Dumbledore believed they were the perfect family for Hotaru to be raised in.
"But their son, miraculously survived the killing curse! You-Know-Who's gone and he left Harry Potter with nothing but a scar mark!" McGonagall exclaimed. "But poor Lily and James did not make it. What are we going to do about Harry?"
Dumbledore thought for a moment as he looked at Hotaru as if something was meant to be done.
"I think…..that Harry and Hotaru should be raised together," Dumbledore stated.
"What are you saying?" McGonagall questioned.
"Hotaru had a painful past in her previous life and now she's reincarnated for a second chance. If she and Potter are raised together finding that they have a lot in common, then they can learn the true meaning of love even if they are someone completely different."
McGonagall nodded knowing he had a point.
"Where will they go?" McGonagall questioned.
"The Dursleys. Harry's only family he has left," Dumbledore said.
"But Lily and Petunia Evans did not have a healthy relationship growing up Albus," McGonagall said anxiously.
"I know, but Harry and Hotaru have nowhere else to go. Hotaru will need stay there for now until Neptune returns for Hotaru."
….
It was late in the evening when Dumbledore had arrived in 4 Privet Drive carrying Hotaru in his arms. McGonagall was transfigured into a cat to avoid suspicions of here being caught doing magic in front of muggles.
"Here we are Minerva," Dumbledore said standing right by the porch in front of the Dursley household. The sound of a motor cycle was heard landing on the ground as Dumbledore and McGonagall watched an eight foot giant land half carefully to the ground while holding a bundle in his arms.
"Hagrid. Well timing," Dumbledore exclaimed as Hagrid walked over with baby Harry Potter in his arms.
"Sorry about that landing sir," Hagrid said breathlessly as the three walked over to the porch of the Dursleys. Dumbledore placed Hotaru first on the porch he held out for Harry next. Dumbledore then gently placed Harry next to Hotaru as the two sleeping children peacefully slept. Hagrid started to sniff at the bundles as soon as Dumbledore placed a letter on top of the blankets in between the two.
"This is not goodbye forever Hagrid," Dumbledore twinkled as he gave one last glance at the babies.
"I know you'll do great things…...Harry and Hotaru Potter."
