Magic's Next Era

Warning!!!!! This story does contain spoilers about the final ending of Sailor Moon. The actual ending from the Sailor Stars Season.

DO NOT continue reading unless you are familiar with this season.

This fic is based more on Sailor Moon than on Harry Potter. I've only seen the movies, not the book, for Harry Potter. I fell in love with Loony Luna, so be prepared to see the sides of her that I envision.

I do not own either Sailor Moon or Harry Potter.

If there is something that I should know, about Harry Potter. Please tell me.

And now on with the Prologue…

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I don't understand, Luna. Why can't I transform into Sailor Moon?" Serena suddenly complained as she stared at her High school homework. A partially done paper for Social Sciences.

"I don't know, Serena." Luna responded, after taking a deep breath for patience. Getting Serena to do this assignment was taking days. "But shouldn't you be more concerned about your term paper? Remember. It's due next week, and you've barely finished the first paragraph. At this rate you'll get another 'F', and THEN. You'll have to repeat the school year all over again." Then she leaped onto Serena's shoulder to read it. After seeing only a few paragraphs done, not even a full page. She then hopped onto Serena's desk, and sat down to stare at her.

"But Lunaaaaa…..." Serena whined. "This assignment was to write about the 'Strange light show, at the final "Star Lights" concert'. How can I NOT, to think about my powers." Resting her head on her arms Serena continued to mope. "It was the last sighting of Sailor Moon. And I haven't been able to transform since…" Then she took out another piece of paper. Doodling each of the sailor scouts symbols on it.

"I can see you can't let this go. However, I will not watch you complain." Luna called out, as she hoped onto the windowsill. "So while you do your homework. I'll go talk to Artimis."

(any body know the correct spelling?)

"Wait! Luna, I didn't want you to leave.." Serena called out to Luna. "Come on Lunaaa. Didn't you promise to help meee…"

Leaping into the tree and then running off, Luna called out, "Bye, Serena!"

After Serena watched her 'faithful advisor' run off to see her boyfriend. She went back to working on the term paper. Even though, she was still upset about her powers. The ones that never returned since that fateful night she faced Sailor Galaxia. The powers remaining allowed her to summon the Silver Crystal, her disguise pen and nothing else. Her broach, communicator, Holy Grail, Spiral Wand, Moon Sword, and Eternal Moon Scepter were all unusable and inaccessible. The ability to transform and fight the last nega-monsters on earth was gone.

After staring down at the mostly blank page. Serena just began writing anything. Not caring that she wrote about what really happened. The actual events of how the Earth was nearly disintegrated. When the Stadium was turned into a portal to Galaxia's head quarters. How Sailor Moon refused to fight a fellow Senshi, and lost her life. Only to have her Star Seed fused with Sailor Galaxia's pure Star Seed and her Silver Crystal. Even the part of why the most popular boy band in Japan, suddenly vanished.

When she finished. Serena started to sit back in her chair and stretch her tired muscles. Closing her eyes, she didn't see the exhausted Owl flying though her bedroom window.

*Squawk!*

*Boom!*

Downstairs Mrs. Tuskino called out, "Serena! Did you fall asleep doing your homework AGAIN?" Then mumbled to herself. "Honestly, what a lazy daughter of mine."

Shocked from seeing the Brown Spotted Owl on her desk; and the subsequent backward falling of her chair. It took a moment Serena to realize that it was really there. Another to respond to her mother. Then finally, to notice that it got injured in the collision.

Looking at it from her awkward position in the chair, on the floor. Serena called out, "No mom! I just finished it and then an Owl came in my room!"

"Serena! I have enough work to do around the house. Keep working on your homework! And stop making up silly stories you lazy girl!" Mrs. Tuskino answered, just before the sounds of a vacuum started.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hey! Where're you two off to? And with dad's NEW car?" Ron asked his brothers with dismay. "Dad's gonna pitch fit! *gulp* Not to mention what MOM'll do. When yuse two get back."

"No worries, little brother-" began Fred. Then patted Ron on the back, as he put a few backpacks into the trunk.

"Dumbledore. Gave US special permission to use it." George finished, as he waved a parchment with a broken wax seal.

Fred snatched it out of George's hand, opened it and showed Ron, "See it says so. Right, here." Then pointed to the corresponding sentence. "We've got a 'special mission'. "

"To pick up a new transfer student." George finished, after closing the trunk. Blithely ignoring Ron's slack jawed expression.

Shocked, Ron took it and read the letter from Dumbledore. The letter instructed the twin Weasley brothers to go and pick up a student. The location: Osaka, Japan. "But, but..."

"That's right, you get now don't you." George laughed. "He trusts US to go half-way 'round the world. To pick up one: Miss. Serenity Moon. *sigh* Oh the things we must do for that Wizard." George said as he smiled. Then grabbed Fred around the shoulders, as they made the final preparations. "Well. Time to be off little brother."

They tossed girl's wizard robe, into the trunk. Then Fred announced "Wish us luck." After he got in the car. Then they flew off. Leaving an incredulous Ron, waving back and cringing as he still held the letter. In their parent's empty garage.

"But the letter… Didn't say anything about using dad's new car." Ron wined as he looked around at the now empty space. He began to wave good bye; until he heard his mother scream. "Where's our NEW CAR!"

"oh boy…" bracing himself for the worst. Ron, shoulders slumped, walked into the house.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back in Japan

Serena, still on the floor, continued to stare at the strange bird.

The owl stared right back at her. Then it got up and limped over to the letter. Picked up the sealed envelope, that dropped a moment ago. After a few attempts it tried to gently land next to Serena's chair. Then dropped the letter, beside her. This time it landed gently in her hand.

"Huh?" Serena squeaked. Then she scrambled off the chair, clutching the letter. As she began to collect her wits. The owl quickly backed away to a safe distance. After a brief staring contest. Serena finally noticed the paper she was crushing. She also noticed that the bird was injured. So she dropped the paper, and got some bandages and chop sticks out the emergency in her closet.

*Good thing Luna and I get injured so much.* Serena thought as she broke a chop stick into 4ths. *Otherwise I might have to explain, why there's an injured bird in my room.* Then she hummed parts of the song Born Free. As she cautiously wrapped the bandage around the Owl's leg. Completely forgetting about the letter it delivered.

When she finished. The owl made a happy sounding cry. Then flew out Serena's window. Onto a nearby tree branch outside. It promptly fell asleep.

*Poor thing. It must be exhausted.* Serena thought as she watched it sleep. *But why did it fly into my room? And why does it seem so tired?*

"Serena…" Her mother called. Then opened Serena's bedroom door. "I just came to see how your homework is coming along… Young lady what is this mess?" Mrs. Tsukino cried out dismayed. Then she saw the essay on Serena's desk, and went to read it. After reading a few sentences she growled, "Young Lady, this is a pack of lies. Don't even THINK about handing this in as your assignment." Righting Serena's chair, she then told her daughter. "You are going to sit right here and finish this assignment, NOW." Then tossed Serena's old paper into the trash.

Under her mother's watchful eyes. Serena wrote a more appropriate essay. One that didn't include other dimensions, Star Seeds, or the real identities of the Sailor Stars, and Sailor Scouts. Unknowingly, her mother also helped her get over her obsession about her missing magical powers. As well as making Serena forget about strange birds, and the letters; they deliver.
