DISCLAIMERS

1) All characters that appear in the manga and anime belong to the amazing Naoko Takeuchi and are merely borrowed for pure enjoyment and no profit is gained whatsoever.

2) Travis/Tranquility, Crystal, Quartz, Darien Jacobson and Apollo are all a credit to the lovely and amazing Jendra and borrowed for enjoyment from the Sailor Moon Universal Series. You do not have to read those stories to understand much, but this story does kind of take into account a few things which happened during that series.

3) All other characters are created for this story unless otherwise specified.

4) All names are North American except for Setsuna who I prefer over Trista. I am well aware how Rini is spelt, however I prefer the spelling of Reenie.

5) There is no ChibiChibi in this story, there is a character to serve a similar purpose, but it is not ChibiChibi.

Prologue

30th Century Crystal Tokyo

King Tranquility stepped off the platform he had arrived through, his golden armour shimmering in the setting sun as dark clouds covered the sky over Crystal Tokyo. As Neo Queen Serenity's twin brother he was held with as much as respect as his sister when he visited the peaceful city.

"Your Highness, Neo Queen Serenity is in the royal chambers," one of the guards spoke bowing his head to the blonde royal. "She said to send you there straight away."

Tranquility nodded quickly breaking into a fast paced walk and stepping through the gates of the palace. It only took a few minutes until he reached the chambers and found his sister no longer dressed in her royal dress her wings curved behind her revealing she was dressed casually. Her hair was out of it's usual hairstyle and flowed down her back.

::Serena?:: Tranquility called to her through their bond as he stepped into the room quietly. Serenity shot up quickly her eyes meeting her brothers, tears streaming down her face as he noticed Endymion on the bed, fading from existence.

"What's going Travis?" Serenity cried, "this isn't supposed to happen."

Tranquility was at her side quickly taking her in his arms, after a quick moment he pushed her away to look at her face. "Have you spoken to Setsuna?" Shaking her head he looked back at his blood brother again, his eyes closed and his armour fading further with each moment that passed. "Okay, where's Reenie?"

"She's with ourselves in the past- Oh god," Serenity paled, her legs gave way sending her to her knee's on the ground. "Reenie?"

"Serenity!" Tranquility raised his voice kneeling beside his sister. "We will sort this out; you know that our past selves would never let anything happen to her. Where are the scouts and the generals?"

Serenity was fighting the tears at the thought of her daughter in the past, pausing she took a deep breath and calmed herself down. "The Generals are training the new recruits in Elysian, the others have gone to check on the crystal points."

Tranquility nodded knowing that the security of Crystal Tokyo came down to the security of the crystal points around town, from his understanding that was what caused the initial attack by the Black Moon family on the city. "Call Setsuna, I'm going to go Elysian and bring the generals back."

Serenity nodded, "Tranq?"

"Yes?"

"Thank you," Serenity formed a small smile, "ever since you came back into my life you've always known how to keep me going in the right direction." She looked at her husband reaching for the chain around her neck, "I'm going to to the gate before I get the scouts, I need to make sure Reenie is okay."

Tranquility nodded his understanding as she held a silver version of the key her daughter had before disappearing.

"Are you okay to sleep now sweetie?" The woman answered looking down at her daughter; her hand gently brushed her hair out of her face. The girl looked up at her mother meeting her warm gaze with a small smile and nodding.

"I think I can sleep now," the girl answered softly pulling her doll to her tightly as the thunder cracked again and she whimpered. The older woman looked out the glass doors that made the balcony, buildings spread around them and the light show a little interesting to watch.

"It's okay sweetie," the woman whispered again making sure the blankets covered the girl completely.

"When is Daddy back?" the girl tried her hardest to fight the tears that were edging their way down her cheek with ever crack of thunder rang.

"You know he doesn't get back for another three days honey, but he'll be so proud to hear how brave you've been during this storm."

"Our song?" The girl asked her mother sweetly nestling in her arms. Her mother knew that even though she was almost eight years old her fear was still very real. So instead of making a fuss she let the child rest in her arms as she hummed softly.

"We tried, we tried all there is to try. I'm not, I'm not gonna let you fall aside. Let me hold you," She sang running her hand up and down her daughter's arms to comfort her. "I won't let anybody hurt you."

"So many months, the city lights fade as I drive," she continued to sing, brushing her own hair out of her eyes. "I place my hands on your face, breath you in, we need to go, a little faster, a little faster. We need to go a little faster, so-"

"We can collide," the child joined softly her eyes drooping.

"We can collide, we can collide," the two sang softly, her daughter's breathing getting heavy.

"This is where we fall apart," the woman continued to sing as she focused her gaze on her child making sure she was asleep. The song was something she began to sing to the girl when she was a baby and it had stuck.

"We try to find home," the lightning strikes were getting less frequent as she sang, the thunder drifting further and further apart. "So far and so wide," she paused looking down at her daughter who had drifted deep into sleep. "Distant moment crashes down, as our memories collide." Carefully she pried herself from her daughter and closed the door behind her.

"Angel," the voice said gently, the little girl's eyes snapped open greeting her with the garnet eyes she had grown to recognise anywhere.

"Puu?" the child whispered sitting up her doll falling to the side, she took in the woman infront of her in her Sailor uniform. "What are you doing here?"

"Come on," Pluto said getting to her feet and helping the child out of bed. She quickly helped her change from her nightwear into a skirt and shirt grabbing the hairbrush from the vanity to fix up her unruly blonde hair. "We have to go quickly little one."

"What about Mommy and Daddy?" the girl asked as Pluto handed her the doll she left on her bed before reaching for the child hand and grabbing her staff from resting against the window frame. "No!"

"Shh," Sailor Pluto hissed, "Can you be a big girl for me?" The girl nodded, "Good, close your eyes."

The child did as she was told, her body felt light as she held on tightly to the woman's hand.

"Open your eyes," Sailor Pluto whispered comfortingly; the child gazed around as she found herself infront of the gate of time.

"What are we doing at the gate?" the child asked looking at the older woman, "I thought you said it was dangerous to go through the gate if you weren't meant too?" Sailor Pluto flicked her wrist handing her a key on a silver chain distracting her from her prior thought. "This is just like-"

"It is exactly like hers, it's time for you to go into the past little one the timeline depends on it," Sailor Pluto also handed her a small toy box with a lock on the front and the child's face grew serious. "You must keep this safe, don't let anybody take it from you."

"What's so important about it?" the girl inquisitively examined the toy box in her hands before fumbling with the locks, Sailor Pluto quickly stopped her hands from doing so.

"It doesn't matter what it holds, you need to protect it," Pluto answered firmly, "don't forget your training and remember-"

"Not to tell anyone about the future because time is a fragile thing and even the slightest diversion from the plan can affect the line," The child recited with sarcasm aimed at the woman. Sailor Pluto couldn't fault her as she heard her own lecture repeated back at her, instead she smiled knowing that at least her endless lecturing at gotten through to one of her students.

"A chip of the old block isn't she?" a voice interrupted as Helios appeared standing beside the woman at the gate. The robe he wore was white and helped him blend into the surrounding area behind them. Sailor Pluto didn't answer instead tapped her foot impatiently on the ground. "Everything is in place for the drop off."

"What about the protection?" Pluto asked.

"Will be in place the moment she arrives," Helios explained. "Are you ready to go squirt."

The child stomped her feet on the ground looking at up at the white haired man who had joined them and pouted. "I'm not a squirt."

Helios laughed holding his hand out, "come on, we need to stick together if we are going to get there safely." She looked from Pluto who gave an encouraging nod moving to open the door to the gate.

"Just remember to protect it with everything you have, you'll know when it is time to release it," Pluto answered. "And for Serenity's sake, be good for your parents."

The child gave Sailor Pluto the biggest smirk that caused the woman to chuckle to herself as she closed the gate behind the two as she heard footsteps.

"Your royal highness," Sailor Pluto turned and kneeled before her queen promptly.

"Setsuna, you know how I feel about these actions," Serenity answered reaching her hand and bringing her to her feet. "Is she okay?"

"Small Lady is perfectly fine," Pluto promised knowing that she couldn't lie to her queen.

"I want to see her," Serenity ordered.

"You know I can't do that my queen, it could severely disrupt the timeline."

"I'm ordering you to show me my daughter," Serenity's voice was firm as she looked the guardian of time in her eyes. "You will show me now, or so help me Setsuna you won't be able to guard this door anymore."

Sailor Pluto averted her gaze from her Queen and waved her staff infront of them, a second door appeared this one brighter than the other. Words weren't exchanged as the door opened and Serenity stepping closer to the door and peering into it.

She watched as she saw her daughter comfort her younger self as her brother led them to a car park, a memory she couldn't recall that entire well. She pulled herself back from the door to look at their guardian. "What is going on Setsuna?"

"There's been a ripple in time," Setsuna explained.

"I don't suppose you'll give me any more information?" Setsuna shook her head.

"It will sort itself out, the king will be fine."

"How can you be so sure?" Serenity frowned fighting the tears from falling again, "time is a fragile thing – I learnt that from you."

"Because I have faith in you my Queen, you always arise to a challenge and with Small Lady by your side you will pull through."
