Ok! Here's the basics of the setup: The name on a separate line
by itself means that person is the person your "possessing" so to
speak. Meaning you see the story through the eyes of that person. Not
that hard to understand right? I got the idea from another fanfiction
(hope you don't mind!). I also used the Japanese names (if you don't
know who's who, that's sad!). Also this story is based on the manga:
Michiru and Haruka take care of little Hotaru, the Amazon Quartet are
really Chibi Moon's sailor soldiers just like the inners and outers are
Sailor Moon's.

You know all the legal babble so I'll keep it short:
Naoko Takeuchi owns Sailor Moon & the characters. I own the new
characters: Callisto, Siren, Nereid, Dione, Charon and all the new
characters. I also own this story. Review please!

This story takes place after all the enemies have been eradicated
and Neo Crystal Tokyo has been established. That means far into the
Sailor future. Well enough delay if you actually read this stuff…

Love, Kitana Santi =^.^=

Eternal Moonlight

Chibi-Usa
Chapter One: The Meeting

"Mmm! I love this flower garden!" I said to myself and laid down
on the flowers gently. I was outside the Crystal Palace in the field of
flowers my mother grew. The flowers were special, from the Moon. They
smelled so good. I always come here to get away from the palace and
escape life basically.

I'm Neo Princess Serenity of Neo Crystal Tokyo, a.k.a. Princess
Chibi-Usa. I use to be called Small Lady but I'm not small anymore. I
turned sixteen two days ago. I had a giant ball held in my honor. Tons
of people came. I also danced with many boys, many handsome boys and I
had lots of fun. I always have fun at parties and balls that my mother,
Neo Queen Serenity, hosts. She is such a wonderful mother, even though
she sometimes eats the snacks she makes for me. At least her cooking
has improved all this time. When she does eat the snacks she makes for
me it always reminds me of Usagi-chan in the past. I miss all my
friends in the past dearly but I do get to go back and visit now and
then. Puu-chan I can always visit through Luna-P who still follows me
everywhere even as a sixteen-year-old princess and I can sneak a visit
to the real her now and then.

I basked in the warmth of the sunlight. "Peace is wonderful!" I
sighed.

"Princess!!" called a familiar voice.

"Diana-chan?" I asked sitting up. Diana was running from the
palace. She looked extremely tired.

"There you are!" Diana wheezed approaching me collapsing on the
flowers. She laid there catching her breath.

I looked at her quizzically. "What is it Diana-chan? Is something
wrong!?" I said worried. I picked her up into my arms holding her
close. Since I turned sixteen I've been noticing things like how much
I've grown and how much Diana has as well.

"Queen has been looking for you and sent me to find you." she
said finally.

A sweatdrop appeared on the back of my head as I fell back into
the flowers in shock. "I thought you were going to tell me that an
enemy has attacked or something because you were so out of breath." I
said.

"Princess, it's just as important! Queen has called an very
important meeting and you must come right away!" Diana said.

"Oh, right!" I said standing up and heading towards the palace
with Diana still in my arms, "Um… Diana…"

"Yes Princess?"

"Call me Chibi-Usa. I mean after all, we've know each other all
these years." I said smiling down at her.

"Yes Lady." she corrected herself.

I sighed, "Close enough."

I entered the meeting room Luna-P following close behind and
Diana at my feet. It was a very large room. The ceiling was up very
high and had a painting of the Silver Millennium on it. The was a large
circular table in the middle of the room with chairs surrounding it.
Each chair was different, each painted with a different planet on it.
They came from the Silver Millennium meeting room, made by the best
artisans of each planet. Each a different color with a different
design, beautifully crafted. Mother had one made especially for me.
That made 11 chairs: Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Uranus, Neptune,
Pluto, Saturn, Earth, and two Moon chairs.

Mother was in her Moon chair and Father was next to her in the
Earth chair. Mother and Father still looked like they did when I first
came back home from the past after saving our home, Neo Crystal Tokyo.
It was as if we didn't age after turning twenty-one. Sailor Mercury,
Mars, Jupiter, and Venus were next to Mother. Then Pluto, Neptune,
Uranus, and Saturn chairs were next to Father. I used to sit next to
Saturn but now four other chairs were added next to me.

Four girls I've never seen before, but looked familiar were
sitting in new chairs. These chairs looked like the Inners' chairs
except they had different planets on them. In fact the planets looked
more like asteroids.

Mother looked up to see me and stood up. The others followed
suit. "May I present my daughter, Neo Princess Serenity, Princess
Chibi-Usa." Mother said. The scouts and the four girls bowed. I
curtsied then walked over to my seat that was directly across the table
from Mother. Mother, Father and I sat down at the same time then the
others sat down after us.

I looked at the girls. To my surprise they looked my age. The one
with green hair was sitting next to the Saturn chair in the new green
chair. The girl next to her had blue hair and was sitting in the new
blue chair. Next to Venus was the girl with the pink hair sitting in
the new orange chair. Lastly was the girl with the red hair sitting in
the new red chair, next to me.

"My dear daughter let me present to you, Miranda." Mother said.

"Hi Princess Chibi-Usa. Very nice to see you once again. People call me
Mira, short for Miranda." said the girl with the green hair bowing her
head slightly. Her green hair long and straight, down to her waist. She
had forest green eyes and gold hoop earrings. She wore a green dress
and a gold necklace with the symbol of Juno carved on it.

"Again?" I thought racking my brain to remember her. "It is nice to
meet you as well." I replied.

"Next to her is Ariel." Mother continued.

"It is a pleasure meeting you again my Princess." said the girl with
blue hair bowing her head slightly as well. He wavy blue hair was
shoulder-length. She had blue eyes and sliver starburst earrings. She
wore a blue dress and a silver necklace with the symbol of Pallas
carved on it.

"The pleasure is mine." I nodded to her.

"Next is Phoebe." Mother said smiling at me.

"Hello Princess Chibi-Usa. My you've grown into a wonderful lady."
smiled the girl with pink hair bowing her head also. Her pink hair was
put up in two rings with the rest dangling down to her knees. Her
hairstyle reminded me of CeresCeres. She had pink eyes and red flower
earrings. She wore a pink dress and a gold necklace with the symbol of
Ceres carved on it.

"Thank you." I smiled. "Those earrings..." I thought.

"Next to you is Rhea." Mother ended.

"Princess." She faced me and bowed her head, "My friends call me Sae
like the sun because my personality is so bright. You have grown into a
wonderful person as well as princess." Her eyes seemed like Hotaru's,
like she could see into your soul. She had long straight red hair and
eyes. She wore a red dress and a gold necklace with the symbol of Vesta
carved on it.

"Thank you…" I whispered. I was captivated by her eyes and could not
stop myself from staring into them till Mother continued talking.

"They are right. You have grown into a beautiful and great person. I
believe it is time." Mother said as I snapped out of my "trance".

I looked about the table to find everyone looking at me smiling. It
seemed as they knew something I did not. "Time for what, Mother?" I
asked returning my gaze to her.

"To take the Queen's place as a leader of the sailor soldiers." said a
familiar voice.

"Can it be!?" I thought with my eyes lighting up as I slowly turned to
the voice by the doorway.

"Sailor Pluto!?" said the scouts in unison with a gasp standing up out
of their seats.

"Puu-chan!!" I gasped standing up from my chair and ran to her. I
hugged her with all my might not wanting to let her go.

"Small Lady!" Pluto whispered to me hugging me back.

After a moment we let go of each other and walked to the table holding
each others hands. We stood next to my chair.

"There has been another disturbance in the time-space continuum. A
great evil has come to our solar system. I watched in horror as Sailor
Galaxia battled the evil trying to stop it from getting to Earth. She
failed and fell to the other side of the universe. The evil entered
Earth's atmosphere and I lost track of it." Pluto said to the shocked
scouts and girls. I gracefully flopped down in my chair.

Mother and Father held hands and looked down at the floor. "I saw and
felt it in my dream last night." Mother said closing her eyes with
tears forming.

"How can this evil be strong enough to defeat Sailor Galaxia!?" asked
Mercury with tears forming.

"I sensed it last night as well." Mars said with a tear falling down
her cheek.

"I won't let them get away with this!" said Jupiter shaking her fists
under the table, tears falling from her enraged yet sadden face.

"Sailor Pluto, please, tell us what we can do." Venus said shedding a
single tear.

"I'm afraid, as the King and Queen know, you must stay and defend your
kingdom. Princess Chibi-Usa," Pluto started but Mother interrupted.

"Pluto-san, please let me tell her." Mother said and Pluto nodded. "My
dear sweet daughter, you must be the one to find the evil and defeat
it." Mother continued.

"I can't! I can't defeat it by myself or without you and the sailor
soldiers!" I said passionately with my eyes closed.

"You won't be alone." the four girls said more or less in unison as Sae
put her hand on my shoulder.

My eyes snapped open and looked at her face. "What do you mean?" I
asked looking at her. She smiled.

"I would never think of sending you alone my dear daughter." Mother
said.

"I don't understand." I said with a quizzical look across my face.

"You don't remember us?" Ariel said with a sad look.

"We are your sailor soldiers." Mira said.

"Mine?" I said still confused.

Phoebe giggled, "We were the Amazon Quartet."

I gasped, "You look nothing like you use to!"

"We've grown along with you my dear princess." Sae said smiling at me.

"You five must find the evil soon before they try to accomplish their
mission." Pluto said.

"Where do we start to look?" Mira asked.

"The enemy has landed in America." answered another familiar voice. It
sounded like…

"That voice…" I thought. "Hotaru-chan?" I whispered. I turned to Pluto
to see Saturn standing back to back with Pluto. I gasped silently.

"Saturn!" the scouts said in unison.

"This evil is the most powerful I have ever felt. I don't want to scare
you all but the truth is that it scares me terribly." Saturn said
stepping away from Pluto.

"Don't worry Saturn, it will turn out fine and peace will once again
reign supreme." said a soft voice.

"We'll protect you my little kitten." said yet another familiar voice,
"We'll protect you and this kingdom."

Mother stood up tears forming again, "Pluto, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus!"
Neptune and Uranus walked over and put their hands on Saturn's
shoulders. "I'm so glad to see you guys again!"

"If they are here then this must be very, very bad." Jupiter said to
the scouts next to her.


Later that night…

It was very dark out as I was walking around the palace aimlessly. "I
still don't think I can do this…" I said to myself aloud. My mind was
reeling thinking about what was said at the meeting. All the outers
showed up to help Mother protect the kingdom and to see me off. I
stepped out onto a balcony. It was overlooking the entire kingdom. "Our
kingdom is so beautiful. I'm going to miss it so much…" I said aloud,
"I hope I can do this. This will be one lonely battle."

"Don't worry my Lady, I will come with you! Just like Mommy went with
the Queen and Daddy went with Venus-sama." Diana said behind me.

"Don't worry, we'll protect you Princess." Sae said as well.

"Diana-chan? Rhea-san?" I asked turning around.

"Now, now, call me Sae-chan. We're friends now." Sae said with a smile
and winked at me.

"She reminds me of Rei-chan and Usagi-chan in the past. In the end they
became great friends, best friends. Rei-chan took a vow to protect her
no matter what. And she did, she protected Usagi-chan from Galaxia as
long as she could, till she died. I can sense that we will become good
friends like that." I thought and smiled at her. Diana ran up to me and
jumped into my arms. "Diana-chan!" I said and kissed her on the head.

"Lady, we'll protect you. Don't you worry!" she purred.

"You have a lovely view from here. This kingdom is like nothing I've
ever seen." Sae said walking over to the edge of the balcony and leaned
on the railing looking over the kingdom.

"It is, isn't it? We are very lucky. I'm going to miss it so much. As
well as my dear friends here." I said joining her by leaning over the
railing. I looked up in the sky to see a shooting star scream across
the night sky. I gasped remembering to make a wish and closed my eyes,
"Star light, star bright. Grant my wish I wish tonight. I wish to have
enough power to defeat this new enemy and come back home with my new
friends." When I opened my eyes I saw Sae looking at me out of the
corner of her eye. I turned to her. "Shooting star." I said looking up
in the sky. She smiled at me.

"I can tell why everyone loves you…" Sae whispered.

"Eh?" I wondered looking at her with wide eyes.

"Um, nothing…" Sae said blushing and continued looking at the kingdom.

I sighed and continued looking at the view of the kingdom.


Back at my room…

I opened the door to my room and turned around to Sae. "Good night Sae-
chan. Thank you for spending some time with me." I said bowing slightly
to her. Diana ran into the room behind me.

"Don't think anything of it. I'll see you in the morning." she said and
bowed to me then turned and walked away.

When I couldn't see her anymore I stepped inside my room and closed the
door. "She's a very nice person." I said aloud and went to my closet.
To change into my nightgown.

"You seem like best friends already my Lady." Diana called behind me as
I threw my dress down over her by accident. "Ack!" Diana called muffled
by the dress. She was trying to get out from under it without harming
the dress. "Lady!!" Diana called.

"Eh?" I said stepping out of the closet in my nightgown. Then I saw her
struggling to get out. "Oh! Sorry Diana-chan!" I said pulling it off of
her.

She sighed. "I hope Mama and Papa don't mind me accompanying you." she
said as I hung up the dress in the closet.

"We just like me you have to 'come out from under Mother's wing.'" I
said.


Later that night…

I was tossing and turning in my sleep having a nightmare.

In my nightmare I was standing in darkness. I started walking
around when suddenly a figure appeared before me.

"My dear Princess, it is time for your awaking. Come to America
and join us." a female figure said.

"Why?" I asked stepping back. I was unsure if I should trust this
figure of a female.

Then the darkness faded to show me a frightening sight. New
yumas. They were attacking humans and destroying them. Then one of the
yumas noticed me standing there and turned. It started to attack me. I
screamed and started to run. Another yuma appeared before me. Soon I
found myself surrounded.

"Oh no!" I cried. I tried to call upon my senshi powers but
nothing happened.

"You will never win…" the female voice called out again. This
time the voice sounded harsh and mean.

Then all the yumas attacked me at once. I screamed and tried to
block the advances with my arms up.

Then I woke up panting and sweating.

"What is it Lady!?" exclaimed Diana.
