This is an extremely short prologue, I wanted to see if anyone of you actually like this story before I start on chapter 1. Please don't flame, this is my first story to post on ff.net, not necessarily my first story ever written, but still, you know how it is to post your first story and are nervous of reactions, as you all experienced writers out there should all be familiar with. If any one of you have any suggestions to improve my story, I will gladly listen and take heed. Thank-you, and please enjoy!

Disclaimer: Sailor Moon belongs to Naoko Takeuchi and Dragon Ball Z, which will appear in later chapters, belongs to Akira Toriyama. Only this plot belongs to me, and the idea that some moons that orbit Pluto and Saturn are Senshi belongs to me. Oh, just so you don't get confused, Charon is Pluto's only moon. Phoebe is Saturn's farthest moon, while Helene is also one of Saturn's moons. There is no such thing as the Guardian of the Dimensional Gates, Purgatory, Hell Gates, and Heaven Gates in the both animes, so if any of you want to use that idea, please contact me first and let me know. Don't sue if you don't find this disclaimer in other chapters, I only plan on writing disclaimers once per each story.

A Story of Life, Love, Secrets

"Helene, I believe Princess Saturn is ready for her training. She has gone through many obstacles and have been victorious. Tomoe Hotaru, her physical body, is intelligent and smart. I think it is time to train her", Phoebe said. Helene smiled a kind smile.

"So do I, I think. Alright then, proceed to her training. I believe all of the other earth born goddesses have already began their training. Phoebe, I will have to ask you to accompany her to the Dimensional Gate and through her whole training process. The training ground I will be sending her to will have many different species that have different attacks and levels of powers. I need you to protect her at all cost. I also need you to befriend the small band of fighters, called the Z-senshi. They will train Saturn in the art of sparring and attacks, while you will be training her on how to be a proper Guardian", Helene commanded.

Phoebe nodded and bowed slightly in respect. "Of course, Helene. Pluto have already been informed of this and she will be responsible of informing the other goddesses of Saturn's training. I will be leaving now", Phoebe flashed Helene a smile before her long silver robes disappeared into a Senshi fuku, with the colours silver and white. She had a tall silver scythe. With a twirl and a sparkle, she was gone.

************************

Hotaru was bent over her desk, three lamps placed over her desk as she peered at her homework. "Linear equations...who thought of these math anyway?" Hotaru muttered to herself disdainfully as she scribbled down the answers, grabbing her ruler now and then.

A giggle was heard behind her, and with surprise, she turned her chair around-to see a girl around 14, wearing a silver and white fuku, carrying a menacing silver scythe, similar to Saturn's glaive. Hotaru grabbed her henshin pen and held it up, ready to transform when needed.

"Who are you, and what are you doing in here?" Hotaru murmured. The girl smiled, then knelt down in an unmistakable bow. Hotaru gasped. "Why are you bowing to me? I don't even know you!" Hotaru said, turning more confused. "Princess Saturn, please transform", she said quietly.

Strangely, Hotaru seemed to obey her words. Holding her henshin pen in the air, she shouted, "Saturn Crystal Power!" With a purple flash of light and a spin in the air, she was Sailor Saturn, the Senshi of Destruction through Silence. She held her right hand up and her glaive appeared, and she brought it down hard onto the floor. It made no sound on the wooden tiles.

Sailor Saturn's eyes widened in recognition. "Sailor Phoebe, the Senshi of the Purgatory, Captain of the Astral Plane, guided by Phoebe, the farthest moon from Saturn", Sailor Saturn gasped.

Sailor Phoebe smiled, nodded and stood up. "And Sailor Saturn, the Senshi of Destruction and the goddess-in-training, guided by the planet, Saturn", Sailor Phoebe said, smiling widely.

"Phoebe, I thought the moon perished along with Saturn. Queen Beryl destroyed the Silver Alliance and soon caused war among the nine planets of the Solar System. I thought you were dead", Sailor Saturn said monotonously.

Phoebe nodded, smiling. "I was reborn sixty years ago, into the physical body of a girl named Teera Ryu. I am now the rightful Guardian of the Purgatory, and Sailor Helene, guided by one of Saturn's moons, Helene, is now the Guardian of the Heavens Gates. She finished her training forty years ago", Phoebe informed the Princess of the planet her moon orbit around of.

"And why are you here now? Shouldn't you be at the Astral Plane at the moment?" Sailor Saturn questioned, her eyes narrowed. "I am here to bring you to your training. Princess Saturn, you are now fully prepared to take on the responsibility of the position of Guardian of the Hell Gates", Phoebe announced.

Sailor Saturn stared at her. "Guardian of the Hell Gates. That was my mother's title. Is it now my responsibility for me to accept that title?" Sailor Saturn asked. Sailor Phoebe nodded. "Then I shall go. Yet, the body I am in now have many friends who will-"

"No need to worry, Sailor Saturn; Sailor Pluto, Guardian of the Time Gates have agreed to inform the other goddesses where you are going. Be rest assured that this training will not affect your normal everyday life as Tomoe Hotaru".

Sailor Saturn nodded in satisfaction. "Then bring me to the Dimensional Gates at once and let me proceed to my training", she announced. Sailor Phoebe nodded, held a firm grip on Sailor Saturn's shoulder, and was gone in a flash.

**************************

It was dark, fog was everywhere, as Sailor Saturn and Sailor Phoebe walked randomly all over the place. Soon, they reached the Time Gates, which was surprising because they still had no idea where they were going.

"I have to remind Sailor Pluto to clear away the fog one day", Sailor Saturn said in annoyance. "Guided by the mysterious planet, the farthest and coldest planet in the whole solar system, I am Sailor Pluto, Guardian of the Time Gates. State your identity and reason for being here", said a voice, seemingly to come from all around them.

"It is Sailor Saturn, guardian-in-training, and Sailor Phoebe, Guardian of the Purgatory. It is time for Sailor Saturn's training", Sailor Phoebe announced to the darkness around them. A shadow apeared in the fog and the fog cleared, revealing a woman with long dark green hair, dressed in a white and green fuku.

"Welcome, Guardians. Your path has been chosen, step forward and you shall reach the Dimensional Gates. There, guided by the only moon of Pluto, she is Sailor Charon, Guardian of the Dimensional Gates", Sailor Pluto explained and tapped her Time Key once, before the heavy golden doors shifted open.

"Explain to me why we must go through the Time Gates to reach the Dimensional Gates", Sailor Saturn said, looking through the Time Gates defiantly. Sailor Pluto and Sailor Phoebe glanced at each other and smiled briefly.

"The Dimensional Gates are directly on Charon, and only a thousand years ago is it still standing. Till this day, Sailor Charon is still guarding it. She cannot leave her post, nor can she remove the Gates and place it in this dimension. Sailor Pluto was able too, because she is the heiress to the throne, but Sailor Charon does not have the power nor authority to accomplish such a task. That is why we must go back to the past to reach the Gates", Sailor Phoebe explained patiently.

Sailor Saturn's expression relaxed and she nodded, as she stepped through the Gates, followed by Sailor Phoebe. Sailor Pluto closed the Gates as soon as the Guardian of the Purgatory was through.

"Wow...the view on Charon is beautiful...and it's so peaceful..." Sailor Saturn trailed off. Stars dotted the sky. The air was freezing cold, but the Senshi were immune to temperature. "We should go now, Sailor Saturn, we must not waste any time", Sailor Phoebe and she walked on ahead.

"Sailor Phoebe and Sailor Saturn, I have been expecting you two", said a voice and an 18 year old girl dressed in a sky blue and white fuku walked out, with a long staff similar to Sailor Pluto's except it had a spliting image of Charon floating on it. It looked sort of like a hologram.

Sailor Saturn gazed at the Dimensional Gates, it was ebony white, which matched the icy white floor and the black inky sky. "Sailor Charon, Sailor Pluto did tell us to expect you. I am sure you are already informed of Sailor Saturn's training?" Sailor Phoebe asked.

Sailor Charon nodded and pointed her staff to the stars. "So, the stars informed you...Should've known...", Sailor Phoebe trailed off.

Sailor Charon nodded again and slammed her staff onto the icy floor hard, causing the doors to open. Before they stepped through, Sailor Phoebe turned to Sailor Saturn.

"Saturn, I have to ask you to dehenshin as soon as you arrive there. It will not be wise to arrive at a place unknown and give a first impression wearing your Senshi fuku", Sailor Phoebe explained. Sailor Saturn nodded, and Sailor Phoebe, satisfied, stepped through, pulling Sailor Saturn along with her.

I hope you enjoyed the prologue, and I will have chapter 1 very soon. Be well-assured that chapter 1 will be a lot longer then the prologue. I'm just trying out this idea. If no one likes it, I may begin another. Thank you again for reading.
