SIL chapter 2
Journey to Tsukishima
Well, here we are on the beginning of the second chapter of Sailor Island Paradise.
I must thank those who reviewed the previous chapter, and I do admit that the chapter is heavy on details, but that is how I write, and I will not be able to change that any time soon.
This story isn't meant to be any more than a sweet romantic tale between the Sailors, and as such, I hope that no one takes any changes I make to the characters personally.
As to the changes in the characters physical features, the timeline of the Anime and the Manga takes place during the Sailors middle school years, in this story, they have all grown up and are all going to college. As such, their bodies are bit different, and I honestly hope that those of you who were bothered by the descriptive nature of the last chapter understand that I wanted to highlight the changes that have taken place over time.
As to the content of this chapter, there will be descriptions of a sexual nature and accompanying nudity.
If any previously stated information above offends you in any way, I do apologize, but I will not alter my work to fit everyone else's expectations and tastes, because once I do, I sacrifice my original intent, and that is the worst thing an author can do if they do so by outside pressure.
That said, I am hoping that the readers of this story enjoy it as I did writing this story, please feel free to review this story at your leisure.

Usagi felt her excitement well up inside of her for what seemed like the thousandth time today as she wiggled in her seat. Sitting in the airport with her luggage, the bunny blonde was so excited for the chance that she and her friends had been given. Not 2 days after the Sailors had reunited in the park, Minako had won an all expenses paid trip to the South Pacific Island of Tsukishima(Moon Island), and she was given the privilege to bring 4 others with her, so of course she choose her four closest friends. And the best part, the island was allowing only the 5 of them to be there, because the new owners wanted a small group to come and enjoy the island for themselves and rate it before they allowed a huge crowd to be invited.
Essentially, the 5 would be given an entire pristine tropical island all to themselves, the beauty of it all was enough to make Usagi giddy with excitement. Her bag was not heavily packed, with only a week's worth of clothes for the entirety of the three month trip, but the owners had assured them that the hotel on the island did indeed have all of the expected modern facilities, such as a laundry room and even a restaurant on the property. Along with her regular clothes, Usagi had taken some time to buy herself some new swimsuits, and a few of them were rather revealing compared to what she would have worn previously, showing off her full buxom curves in such a way as if to say "I am beautiful, I know it, and I am going to let that beauty speak for itself". She blushed when she remembered the reaction of her mother as she had come out of the dressing room to model them. Needless to say, her mother was surprised, but delighted to see her daughter embracing her more adult, sensual side, without going for the most revealing pieces possible, somehow managing to be sexual, but still dignified in a way.
Even amongst the masses crowding the Tokyo International airport, the glowing blonde hair and statuesque height of the future queen made her easy to spot even while sitting down. As if to prove the point, the first of her friends found her within ten minutes of her sitting down at the terminal. Usagi looked up to see the short bob of dark blue that made up the hair on Ami's head, her face all smiles and twinkling sapphires for eyes. Not five minutes after Ami had set her own bag down, the two sailors caught sight of the ever Amazonian Makoto weaving her way through the crowds of people with what seemed like practiced ease, her long legs giving her fluid grace with each step, her high pony tail swishing back and forth in perfect time. Just as the beautiful brunette was done giving her greetings and a firm but loving hug to the other two, the brilliantly bright blonde tresses of Minako's hair made themselves visible to Usagi, who waved her over, and before they could even hug, the fifth sailor and resident black haired beauty walked on over and joined the five way group hug.
With the luggage gathered close together, the assembled sailors sat down in a small group of seats near the gate, striking up a pleasant conversation as they all waited for the flight attendants to announce it was time to board the plane. "So Mina-chan, I know you won the tickets because of a radio talk show, but I am seriously wondering if this is legit" the ever intelligent Ami piped up, her voice soft but audible to the other sailors while still quiet enough to not bother the other waiting passengers.
Minako for her part had a cheshire cat smile on her face, "Well, its kinda anti-climactic, I just turned on the radio as I was getting ready for bed, and lo and behold, I hear the announcer call out that the contest was getting close, so I pick up the phone, call in, and, well, I won the trip" she said with a wistful shrug as the other sailors smiled, Minako had always been good with winning contests, and the radio contest was no exception.
The sailors kept talking about their lives apart for almost an hour, until the flight attendant came on over the PA system and made them aware that it was time to board. The Sailors grabbed their bags and stood in the line with their fellow passengers. The plane they were boarding was more or less standard size passenger plane, but the number of people on the plane was lower than its maximum capacity of 250 people, on this particular day the plane would only be carrying roughly half that, the sailors included, as this flight was first landing in Taiwan, before the sailors would be switching to a privately owned plane that would take them the rest of the journey to Tsukishima, roughly another thousand miles away from Taiwan to the south east. The bulk of the other passengers were those traveling to Taiwan for business purposes, and their dress was decidedly business oriented, while the Senshi were all wearing either t-shirts and jeans or informal blouses and skirts.
Though the flights combined would be well over five hours with an expected 2 hour layover, the sailors all had plenty in their carryon bags to keep them occupied, Ami with a book of difficult puzzles and equations to work on, Minako a cheap romance novel she had picked up in the airports book store, Rei a sketchbook and several pencils of varying make, Makoto a cookbook she had been leafing through to improve the recipes she had been working on for some time, and Usagi with an old handheld game system, the original Sailor V portable game securely slotted in it, despite the fact that she had beaten the game so many times that she could practically play it in her sleep, she always carried it with her on long trips to take the edge off.
Of course, she couldn't play it during takeoff and landing, but she was content to wait, taking the window seat of the back row of the planes seats, the others joining her in the back row, as they didn't want to bother anyone else while they were flying, setting their bags in the over head compartments before buckling up and getting ready for takeoff. No sooner than the plane started to taxi in the runway did Usagi began to feel extremely tired, her eyes growing very heavy as her body was filled with the desire to sleep, not five minutes after they had left the ground was she fast asleep, her fellow sailors silently noticing and sharing a smile to each other as they pulled out a blanket and pillow for her, draping the pillow around her body and equally as gently placing the pillow between her head and the cold inner wall of the plane.
As she slept, Usagi's mind began to wander as she dreamed, nothing in particular was odd about the dreams she was having, until her mind became aware of two very unusual things. One, this dream was particularly lucid, almost as if she was aware subconsciously that she was in fact in a dream. The second, and more surprising, was her sudden awareness that she was floating in what seemed to be a pristine white void, and even more surprising, she was completely nude.
She felt the urge to cover her bare breasts and pussy before she once again realized that this was a dream, if she was nude, no one else was actually seeing her nude, and she was obviously still clothed in the outside world. Looking around herself, she finally became aware of another in the void, a beautiful woman with sparkling silver hair, luscious skin and a beautiful body that held an unexplainable quality of motherhood and wisdom, and much like herself, usage noted that this other woman was equally as nude as she was yet, she felt no need to cover herself as she she finally remembered, the woman before her was her future self, Neo Queen Serenity.
The smile on the silver sovereigns face was as warm as the brightest clearest day without the glare or near scalding effect of the sun on the skin, and her voice was just as regal as ever, "Hello Usagi, it has been quite some time since I saw you last" her voice was filled to the brim with a soothing tone, like a mother to a child, not scolding or demeaning, but instead almost encouraging. Her silver eyes looked the young blonde woman up and down, and she gave an approving smile and look directly at her younger self, "you have grown into a beautiful young woman Usagi, you have no idea how proud I am to see that you have matured" she said with pride, her own body had filled out some due to giving birth to Chibi-Usa, slightly fuller breasts and a more plump backside, yet maintaining her immortal beauty.
Usagi couldn't help but think that her future self was not simply there to make small talk, there was a reason for her sudden appearance. "I don't want to be rude especially to myself, but why am I just now talking to you, why are we inside my dreams, and why are we both nude?" she said with a look of mild exasperation as she crossed her arms just under her D cup breasts, resting their weight on her folded arms giving them a slight heft, the silver haired Sovereign letting out a short laugh at her younger self's bluntness.
"My My, I wasn't expecting that" Serenity said with a smile as she floated closer to Usagi, "It will be easier if I share what I know with you directly" she said as she gently placed her hands on the sides of Usagis face, her eyes closing as Usagi noticed her future self leaning in closer and closer, "Wait, what are you…" she managed to say before her peach colored lips came into contact with the pale lips of her future self, her eyes wider than dinner plates as she received a literal kiss from herself, and a moment later, her mind was filled with over a thousand years of memories, knowledge and experience, all of the accumulated wisdom of her significantly older self flooding into her mind at once.
Serenity released the lips of her younger self, opening her eyes and staring into the stunned woman before her, she moved her hands to the younger womans shoulders and waited for her to closes her eyes, shake her head and finally speak, "ok… three things, one, please don't ever do that again, two, ow, and three, I still haven't figured out why we have to be nude for this" Usagi said in almost panting breathes, her mind still reeling from the sudden overload of information. As her mind eased the new information into it, a sense of further maturity, if not outright wisdom flooded her mind, all of the answers to her questions becoming crystal clear in her mind.
"Ok, I understand, the future is changing, and because of that you won't be my future anymore, I may still become like you, but not exactly, and we are nude because this isn't a dream, this is our spirit forms meeting in the astral plane which can only be done asleep or I a meditative trance, I get that" she said holding her head with one hand as she slowly let more and more of the flooding waters of her gifted knowledge saturate her mind.
"Yes, and sadly, this will be the very last time I will be able to contact you, ever since you became Sailor Moon, your life was supposed to eventually become mine, but with everything that has happened in your lifetime, and all of the changes to the time stream, your life has fallen out of sync with the future that was to become me, and as the rift between your future and my past grew wider and wider, so too did my connection to you. I have gifted you with all of the knowledge and experience that you will need, without any of the details involving future events, as your timeline will no doubt have changes far different from my own, and any understanding I have about those events may turn out to be wrong. You now have the wisdom of over a thousand years of life, as one of the two gifts I have for you before we are done".
"Wait, two gifts? All the wisdom of a thousand years isn't exactly a gift card" Usagi said with a measure of mirth that made the both of them laugh for a moment in a shared understanding. "No it isn't, but the second gift isn't just wisdom, it is something more. You know that in my time I have long been married to King Endymion, Mamo-chan" she blushes remembering her beloved husband, "But, I have seen into your heart Usagi, with your time stream going the way it is, Mamo-chan isn't right for you" Usagi heard this and lowers her head, looking like she is going to cry, her expression revealing that she was aware of this truth, but she had been trying to deny it to herself for so long, and she started to let the tears flow, the Neo Queen embracing her crying younger now alternate reality self.
"Why"? Usagi questioned to Serenity "Because you are meant to love another" said the Neo Queen in response, "And not just one person either Usagi, I have seen how you look at your friends, and I know the feelings that you harbor towards them. You love your friends more than you could ever possibly explain, and you know deep down inside that you do as well." The sobbing blonde beauty thought about the words spoken by the once and future queen, and knew that she spoke the truth, the added wisdom she had imparted helping her see the truth in her words.
"You and I both know that they feel the same, but that they are all afraid to make any attempt to move your relationships beyond the platonic, but you all want the same thing, to love and to be loved by each other. Now that you have the wisdom and understanding born from a thousand years of existence, you will be able to act on your desires and bring each of you together, without accidentally hurting anyone" the elder of the two women said still holding the younger woman to her.
"This will be the very last time we will be able to communicate in any way Usagi, after this, everything that happens in your life is going to be vastly different, and didn't want you to suffer needlessly, so, I shared my wisdom and knowledge with you to make your life better. Please, don't be sad, I know you will go on to do wonderful things" the sparkling silverette said as she looked her younger self I the eyes, her smile being returned, before they embraced softly."Thank you for this Serenity, I won't waste your gifts, I promise to let all of my friends know just how much they mean to me" The younger blonde said with conviction and determination in her voice.
The nude form of the immortal future queen was starting to slowly fade into sparkles of light from the toes on upward telling both women that her time was swiftly running out. "Goodbye Usagi, I wish you all of the very best" her voice starting to fade as well. Usagi gave her formerly future self a quick bow, watching as the now never would be Queen faded completely, small tears coming from her eyes before she wiped them away, her final promise to herself ingrained in her mind, before she slowly came back to consciousness.
She awoke suddenly, her sapphire orbs flying open as she came back to the there and now, Ami kneeling in her seat beside her , the small dainty hand of the beautiful azure haired woman resting on her shoulder, "Usagi-chan, we've landed, we have to get off the plane" her feathery light voice was a symphony of every manner of succulently sweet stringed instruments in perfect harmony Usagi began to think to herself, until she finally fully understood the words spoken by the aqua guardian, to which she quickly nodded and carefully stood up, gathering her belongings and slowly stepping through the aisle to the exit door, her friends all doing the same behind her, each with a smile at the seemingly ditzy blondes reaction, something they all secretly cherished about their beloved leader.
Making their way into the Taiwanese airport, which was significantly smaller than the previous airport, the quintet gathered in a small restaurant not too far from the gate, each of them closely guarding their possessions, Rei doing them the favor of interpreting their orders to the waiter in fluent Chinese, momentarily stunning her friends. The brief mental shock of Rei being fluent in another language in Usagi's mind was only heightened when she silently realized that she was able to understand every word that the Chinese speaking waiter was saying, as well as what Rei was saying verbatim.
Her mind chalked it up to the wisdom and experience granted by Serenity, but her surprise was magnified internally when she started feeling something, something not unlike the warmth and light of her transformations, however, she could immediately determine that this sensation was not from within, but rather, from her friends. She was able to feel their emotional states, effectively making her an empath. And without meaning to, she soon sensed it, coming from all 4 of her friends, that feeling of warmth was love, she was feeling in her mind all of the love that her friends felt for her and for each other, but were afraid to act upon.
She wasn't able to read their minds, but she was now able to feel with perfect accuracy the emotional states of her friends, and the pure unfiltered feelings of love that she was feeling filled her up inside until she had no other option left but to release the happiness of finding that her love was not only reciprocated, but that her friends were just as conflicted about it as she was. Small crystal like tears began to run down her eyes, the others immediately noticing her tears.
"Usagi-chan", they all said at once in sync, all of them placing their hands on top of hers. Her response was a nearly silent whisper, her voice choked with emotion as she said it "I love you, all of you, so very much!" her voice raspy as she finally let her teary eyed confession known, her friends all feeling two distinct emotions at once, the first was great joy that the forest of uncertainty and fear between them about their shared but attempted affections, and the second was a crushing uncertainty about what to do next.
The assembled group of former sailor soldiers embraced the weeping blonde as best they could, with he frames of the significantly taller Makoto and slightly shorter Rei leaning over the edge of the table as they collectively embraced, not certain about their future, but willing to weather whatever storm that was before them.

HOLY CRAP!
That I admit was a challenge to write, let alone cut off at that point. I also admit that the chapter has been split into two parts simply due to the fact that I don't want to go from Usagi's heartfelt confession to the more sensual content planned for the future installments in the same chapter, because that would be too much of a mood swing for me to be comfortable with pulling off.
As to the future chapters, 3 is guaranteed to contain some of the promised sexual content. I wrote this fic just before Toonami came back; before I was even aware that it was legitimately coming back, and I applaud the notion of bring it back. The block brought me so much enjoyment back in the day, so entertaining a new generation as well as introducing them to now anime is a must.
As I write this ending statement, I understand if this chapter seems to be lacking, but the third chapter is going to be the bulk of what used to be the second half of chapter two. If I had kept this chapter in one piece, it would be nearly nine thousand words long not including the opening and closing bold sections at the top and bottom of the chapter. I cut the chapter in a roughly sixty/forty split in order to make it more enjoyable for both myself and the readers
As to the next project on my ever growing list, I am going to attempt to write a Ranma-chan(Ranko)/ Shampoo centric fic, which I am very excited about.
If you have any criticism on this fic, kindly refer it to the review section and please include specifics, as well as recommendations and advice, all is welcome as long as it isn't useless trolling/spamming/flaming.
Again, thank you so very much for reading my work, if you like it, please do not hesitate to share the links with others.
