Hi everyone, Silver Starlight here and this is the first story of mine that
I have ever uploaded anywhere. I hope you enjoy it. Let me know what you think
of it. This is a three part story concerning Sailor Pluto and her feelings
towards Endymion.


~The Fate of Time~
Part 1
by
*Silver Starlight*

Sailor Pluto stood guard at the gate of time. Her stance was straight and still.
Had the presence of others at the gate of time not been taboo an observer might
have thought her a statue, her staff held ready to punish those who would transgress
here. The only animation she held was in her eyes which moved constantly among the
dark mists that swirled around the time corridor.

Pictures appeared in the dark gray mist, appearing only briefly before changing,
short flashes of scenes from the past, present, and future. Using her time staff and
the skill learned from endless years as the guardian of time she could call upon any
of these scenes at will.

There was one scene that she had watched over and over, so often had she seen it that
she no longer needed her staff, but could recall every detail from her own memory alone.
It was her first meeting with Endymion, before he had even met Serenity. Pluto often
cursed the fate that had caused her to meet him. She recalled those meetings again and
shook her head, Endymion and her, and Endymion and Serenity. What made it even worse for
her was that she truly loved the then Princess Serenity, as she had come to love Usagi
later, and then finally Neo-Queen Serenity. Being who and what she was, the immortal
guardian of time, her love for Endymion was the worst possible thing that could have
happened to her.

Pluto shifted her stance slightly as she remembered another scene from memory. The
first time Prince Endymion had met Princess Serenity. The very first time Pluto
had seen Serenity and Endymion together she had known. Serenity would always be the
only one for Endymion. Pluto closed her eyes briefly upon the vision of their meeting
that had appeared before her in the mists and waved her staff to dissipate it only to
have it replaced by the vision of a young Princess Serenity giving a glowing star locket
to her Prince Endymion as an everlasting symbol of their love.

Sailor Pluto's eyes scanned back and forth across the mists sensing the presence of an
intruder, for that vision should not have appeared to her or any other after she had
caused it to disappear. Suddenly a silhoutte appeared through the mist. Twirling her
staff Pluto declared, "All who would break the taboo on the corridor of time must be
punished, show yourself trespasser!" Suddenly the mist swirled once again revealing a
figure just before Pluto had loosed her dead scream attack at it. Pluto gasped.
"Sailor Star!"
