This Idea was inspired by Ozzallos' story 'The Best of Times' with the question. What if Ranma actually was the reincarnation of Sailor Pluto's sister? I had thought that Shampoo would be the reincarnation of Ranma's Mau advisor which is why fate caused that specific pool to be picked. I got to where it currently ends and hit a dead end. Anyways, enjoy.

OOooOOooOO

Setsuna Meioh stood guard over the Gates of Time. An artifact that nobody knew where it came from because the original creators created a paradox whilst using them causing their entire civilization to cease to exist. But that's a story for another time as The Last Princess of Pluto wasn't worried about it at this time though as she went over the timelines assuring that Chrystal Tokyo was ok after the defeat of Sailor Galaxia. After determining that the future was safe she began the process of sealing the gates.

Partway through she was surprised by a living tar like substance that latched onto her legs out of the void realizing what it meant as an entity she thought was dead spoke to her telepathically.

"Metalica you're supposed to be dead." Sailor Pluto gasped out as the ooze sapped her strength.

"You think that just killing Beryl destroyed me?" The disembodied voice asked before chuckling maliciously. "You're more delusional than I thought. I'm a god, you can't kill me. I will seal you away here to make you watch as I possess your precious princess and take what's rightfully mine."

By this time Setsuna was covered up to her shoulders in the sludge and the Time Gates where almost completely shut. There was only one person that she could think of that had the best chance off destroying this evil. Coming to a decision she laboriously removed the ring declaring her royalty from her hand and threw it and the time key through the gates just as they closed with a brief flash of light. "I leave this in your hands Sister." She gasped out as she was engulfed before the sludge vanished into the void.

OOooOO

"I'm sorry for barging into your life at this time after leaving you alone for all these years. Unfortunately I have no one else to turn to. The world will be destroyed if you don't assist your fellow protectors. I hope that will be enough to help you come to a decision as I am currently indisposed. As such I'm leaving you with the tools necessary to protect the world. Please do this for me Iris." A tall green haired woman asked with a pleading look on her face as the recipient of this dream stood within a black void and listened.

Ranma shot up panting a cold sweat on her skin ensuring she was a girl at the moment as she looked around for the threat. All she could see was the dojo where she was sleeping so that her parents could have some time to themselves.

She noticed that she had a large item in her lap that was reminiscent of the Gekkaja and the Kinjakan that she had in her possession after her defeat of Saffron. "The Time Key." She mumbled before she shook herself. "How did I know that?"

After storing the artifact in her weapons space Ranma went back to sleep and began to dream again.

"Big Sis can I come with you?" Ranma said as she currently a five year old girl asked her fifteen year sister whom was holding the younger.

"I can't it'll be boring for you Iri-chan because I'm training to take over from mom." The green haired girl answered with a look of remorse as she set Iri-chan down.

"Then I'll start training too Set-chan." Iri-chan declared obstinately.

"All of the planet's are taken Iris and I'm our planet's heir." Set-chan stated in a strict tone before turning to leave.

"Then I'll join the Alpha Guard." Iris called to her older sister's back only to get a laugh in response.

Five year skip

"It's remarkable my Queen. Your youngest is a martial prodigy." The Sensei gushed to his liege.

"Is she ready for the next stage in her training?" The Queen of Pluto asked.

"Yes my liege."

"Then go. I expect updates as you have been."

"It shall be done."

"Iris I expect for you to acquit our family favorably." The Queen of Pluto stated turning to her youngest daughter.

"It is as you say Mother." Iris answered before she and her teacher departed the throne room and shortly thereafter the planet.

Eight Years Later

"It is my great pleasure to present you with the weapon that chose you. The staff of stars that represents both the sun and the moon. Arise my newest addition to the Alpha Guard, stand and be recognized Sailor Nova." The silver haired rulered ordered as she held a staff that appeared to be a fusion of the Gekkaja and the Kinjakan in her hand.

The newly christened Sailor Nova took the staff from her ruler before brandishing it with a flourish creating a light show using it's ability to control fire and ice.

Ten Years Later

"I guess that means that I failed. Eh Pluto?" Sailor Nova asked as she coughed up blood.

"Don't say that. You did the best you could Iris." The Green haired guardian of Pluto said soothingly as she rubbed the back of her sister's hand.

"I guess that means the Silver Millennium is finished." Nova wheezed closing her eyes before reopening them. "Setsuna if I'm reborn please awaken me if you ever need aid. You were always useless in a fight." She teased.

"I'll take you up that." Pluto promised with a tear filled laugh as Nova took her last breath.

OOooOO

Ranma came to and felt out her surroundings before opening her eyes. "I'm in the hospital. Really?"

Getting out of the bed she pulled off the hospital gown before quickly pulling on a set of clothes that she had stored in weapons space. "Looks like I'll have to awaken my advisor." She said sighing. "That and pick up my staff from the elder."

OOooOO

A quick run over the roof tops later found a male Ranma entering the Nekohanten. "Airen take shampoo on date?" Shampoo asked happily as she glomped Ranma.

"We'll see how you feel later I have a date with destiny at the moment and need to speak with the Old Ghoul." Ranma said playfully.

Shampoo was taken aback by Ranma's reaction because before he'd always did his best to either attempt to get away or freeze up. "Great-grandma is in the back getting ready for the day."

"I knew that you could talk better than you have been because Mousse has no problem." Ranma stated with a smirk as Shampoo walked towards the doorway to the kitchen.

"The look on your face said that you wished for me to stop holding back." Shampoo answered before she walked through the kitchen toward the apartment above the restaurant carrying herself differently than she had in the previous two years.

"Ah yes Xiam Pu I wonder how much you'll like me after I awaken Maria?" Ranma asked himself as he stood waiting.

"Son-in-law what brings you here this early?" Cologne asked as she hopped down the stairs.

"Well honored elder I must say that your people have lost the most basic of the teachings I drilled into your ancestors." Iris stated as she glared at Cologne from the body of a male Ranma.

Cologne got the distinct impression that was she was being stared down by a superior. "Whatever do you mean."

"You know precisely what I'm referring too Elder Ku Lon." Iris answered after using a convenient glass of water to change. "There are some techniques that can only be fully utilized by a female. But on the other end of the spectrum some can only be used by a male. It's amazing that you the Musk and the Phoenix have survived this long since the fall of the Silver Millennium."

Ku Lon sucked in a breath in surprise when she heard that. "And what would Ranma know about our history?"

"I may be known as Ranma is this life but I used to be known as Iris, Second Princess of Pluto and Sailor Nova, Captain of the Alpha Guard. I am here to retrieve my weapon and my advisor." Iris declared as she held her right hand in front of her as the Gekkaja materialized in her hand as the Kinjakan formed directly over it giving off a bright flash of light that forced Ku Lon to turn away to save her sight when she turned back after the light had faded revealing Ranma in a white body suit with a dark crimson skirt and a sunset orange bow on her chest. On her hands were white elbow length gloves trimmed with a sunset orange. Her feet wore white knee high boots with shallow heels trimmed with dark crimson. Her brow was adorned with a white gold tiara that had flawless ruby set in it. She was currently holding the remade staff of stars in a relaxed guard as she stood up straight cracking her neck.

"My lady I must apologize if we have displeased you." Ku Lon said as she prostrated herself in penitence.

"Oh come on, Elder you don't have to bow to me." Nova said in exasperation as she rolled her eyes as Shampoo came back down and stood there in surprise.

"What would you have this lowly handmaiden do to regain your favor?" Ku Lon asked standing.

"You have no need to try and gain my favor but I do have a question and two requests."

"Then please ask." Ku Lon asked inclining her head momentarily.

"Do the Jusenkyo valley histories cover the Alpha guard and what it means?"

"It does but we never agree with anything, which is why we're different clans now."

"I see, Then send them a message stating that, the Captain of the Alpha Guard needs their support to protect the queen."

"It shall be done, and the second." Ku Lon stated.

"I need to have a discussion with Xiam Pu." Nova said causing Ku Lon to look over at her great-granddaughter with fear. "Don't worry it's not a bad thing."

Ku Lon gave Nova and Xiam Pu the use of the store room at the back of the kitchen.

"Xiam Pu I have a request of you." Nova stated to the nervous teen.

"Anything you need great one." Shampoo answered resisting the urge to bow in respect even though she was asked to remain standing.

"You are the rebirth of my advisor Xiam Pu so with your permission I'm going to give you an item that will awaken your past life."

"If it helps us save the world from the demons I'll gladly assist." Shampoo said as she stood tall and proud.

"Then I will borrow you the royal ring of my family it's connections to the time gates should allow you to remember." Nova said holding out the ring of Pluto. "Since you have a Jusenkyo curse I can't guarantee what will happen to you."

"It's ok I'm a blooded warrior." Shampoo assured Nova as she took the ring. With out another word she put it on her finger before collapsing bonelessly prompting Nova to catch her before she hit the ground.

"Elder Ku Lon." Nova called prompting Cologne enter. "I'll need to put her to bed for probably how long I was out."

Cologne led Nova upstairs before bringing magic artifacts in that slowed the body's metabolism while connecting Shampoo to an IV drip to keep her hydrated.

I was thinking that Shampoo would be the reincarnated mauve advisor Maria for Iris. But it can be work out however you want.
