Chapter 2: Plans are made and Histories are explained.
Thanks for the reviews. I will be going into a bit more detail in this chapter. I will try to explain all the Jurian and Wrecking crew backstories.
----The Next Morning-----
Everyone had woken up, sparred, (Ranma really sparing with Akane in Public much to her sisters, the parents and Colognes surprise) and had breakfast prepared by Ukyo, Kasumi, Nadoka, Xian Pu and Cologne. In short they were stuffed on great food. After breakfast Nabiki asked the others how they know that they are from the Silver Millenium.
"Well Nabiki, I have known since I was a little kid." Replied Ranma. "I first met Usagi when I was 2 or 3 and we used to play together all the time when our moms used to take care of us for one another." "I remember now," Said Nadoka. " You always used to tell your father and I about the dreams you had where you were this noble knight that protected this beautiful Princess on the moon. You also said that you were the captain of a secret guard that always watched over her. You didn't remember what the other team members looked like but the way you described the princess it sounded like Usa-chan. Especially the hairstyle. I also remember these dreams starting right after you first met Usagi. I knew then that I would have a truly manly son." Stated Nadoka with stars in her eyes. The rest just had sweat drops on their heads.
"I didn't realize that these dreams were memories until Usagi started sending me letters about her adventures as Sailor Moon. When I stared reading these everything clicked into place. I wrote her back telling her about my dreams and she replied saying that I was Ran the captain of her Hidden Guard. Also she was upset that I remembered because she did not want us to have remembered so that we could have normal and happy lives. I then told her about the training trip and the curse and she wanted to lock pops in his cursed form permanently." Everyone looks at a cowering Genma Performing the Crouch of the Wild Tiger in front of Usagi, pleading with her not to lock his curse. She gave him a cold look for a couple of minutes and then smiled at him. Everyone looked on confused and then she said, " You are an idiot Genma, but fortunately I can fix most of your mistakes. The engagements are now mostly dealt with and I can fully merge Ranma with the Neko-ken t get rid of his fear of cats and give him control of the Neko-ken." "REALLY?!?!?!" everyone shouted. " Yep," said Usa, "but It will be really hard to do and if I make one mistake Ranma will be stuck in his cat state forever." Everyone gasped. Usagi looked at Ranma and took his hand. "Are you willing to take the risk Ranma?" Ranma was quiet for a while then said. "Yes, I may one day go into the Neko-Ken and never come out of it anyway. At least this is a chance to remove the danger one way or another." He looked at the others and said , " Guys if it doesn't work and I go cat permanently. I beg you to kill me. I do not want to be responsible for hurting any innocent people." The others all nodded and Genma Held his head in shame while he cursed himself for being so stupid as to not read the entire manual. Nadoka, Usagi and the other girls had tears in their eyes, while the guys looked at him with newfound respect.
"The entire process will take a week to get through and it is really dangerous. I will need Auntie Nadoka's help as well as the help of some really strong warriors to handle Ranma if he gets out of control." The last was said in the barest of whispers but everyone heard it. "Contacting Taro, Herb and Saffron may be necessary." Said Cologne everyone nodded in agreement. "Those three would be helpful for the Neko-Ken cure as well as in the future. Well Herb owes Ranma a favor so that is no problem, and Ranma's battle with Saffron actually helped his people out greatly, so I am sure that he and Kima will help. The only problem is Taro how will we get that jerks help?" said Nabiki. "Quite easily Nabiki we just have Happi here change his name and he will do whatever we need out of gratitude." Said Cologne as everyone looked to a nervous Happosai. He started to refuse but one look from Usagi made him agree to change Taro's name to be what ever he wanted it to be. "Thank you for doing the right thing Happosai. I am proud that I didn't have to order you to do it." Said Usa. "Sure thing." Sighed Happi.
"How about we contact Kurumi and Natsumi!" Exclaimed Akane. " They are good fighters and they would be happy to help I am sure." "That is a good Idea Akane." said Soun ,"and I would like to see those two again and maybe this time give those two poor girls the home they so richly deserve." Nadoka go a gleam in her eye that made Genma begin to think that if Soun didn't adopt the girls she would.
"So how did the rest of you meet Usagi?" asked Nabiki. With that the others smiled and told their stories.
---Ryoga--- We see a young Ryoga sitting on a park bench crying he is about 6 or 7 years old. A little girl comes up to him and we can see by the hairstyle that it is a little Usagi. She asks, "Why are you crying?" Ryoga hastily wiped his eyes and said that he wasn't but Usagi persisted by giving him the panteted Puppy dog look with big soulful eyes, a quivering lip and one single tear running down her cheek and Ryoga gave in. "I get lost really easily and I can't find my mommy" He said in a whisper. Usagi then grabs his hand and causes him to blush and pulls him along with her. "My mommy is right over there and she can find yours easily. I'm sure." Said Usagi. They went over to Ikouku and told her what happened and the went to search for Ryoga's mother. The whole time Ryoga felt a need to protect this girl but could not understand why. It was as if there was something that was sticking at the back of his mind. Eventually the heard a woman yelling Ryoga's name. "Mommy!" Ryoga yelled. The little group soon saw the woman and went over to her. "Oh thank god Ryoga I was looking everywhere for you!" said Mrs. Hibiki she turned towards Usagi and Ikouku and thanked them profusely for finding her little Piggy. Ryoga then blushed bright red as his mom said her little nickname for him. "MOM!!" he yelled. Usagi and her mother just giggled along with Mrs. Hibiki. Usagi went up to Ryoga and gave him a hug and told him not to worry that mommies always say things like that about there kids. It just shows how much they love them. Both Mrs. Tsukino and Hibiki just smiled and nodded. After that Usagi and Ryoga would see each other from time to time and became good friends. The whole time Ryoga felt as if he had known her somewhere before.
"It wasn't until after I met up with Ranma here in Nermia and he accidentally returned my memories that I remembered the princess." Said Ryoga . "Since then all of Ranma's and mine fights have been preset up to keep the secrete safe." Ryoga's stopped his narration when he noticed everyone save Usagi barely able to keep from laughing. "What?" he asked. "Nothin Piggy, ah, P-chan ah Ryoga just thinking of something funny that pops did the other day. Right Guys?" Said Ranma "Uh-huh sure, Right! P- Chan." Said Akane. "Bwahahahahahaha" and everyone started laughing at the irony until Nabiki caught on to what Akane said. "Wait a minute Sis. You know about P-chan?" "Well duh everyone does sis I mean even The Kuno's now about Ranma's curse and have for a long time." The non-Hidden Guard members of the Nermia crazies were stunned. They looked over at the Kuno's and they both nod with little smug smiles at Nabiki and the others. "H H How?" asked Nabiki. "When I had my full memories back I remembered who the rest of my team was so I began to awaken them. After that we all sought out Usagi and offered our aide to her." Said Ranma. "However I told them to stay hidden as I didn't want the other Senshi to find out about them yet. There may have been some friction. And I also needed them to remain hidden if the senshi were ever to fall and I needed stronger help. You see the Hidden Guard are stronger then the senshi and were the last line of defense for the Royal Family." "So What else have you children been keeping from us?" asked Cologne. The other adults nodded. "Well Ryoga and I are a couple as we were in the Silver Millenium as is Mu Tsu and Xian Pu." Akane answered for the group. The two couples snuggled to one another and the adults blinked a couple of times but decided it wasn't worth it to argue. This was Destiny against them after all. "I almost called the guys when Galaxia attacked and defeated the Senshi, but I didn't want what happened to them to happen to you guys so I faced her alone and won." Said Usa. "You should have called us anyway Princess" said Kuno. The others nodded. "That's right it is our duty to protect you with our lives" said Ukyo. "That is something that we would be happy to do Princess,." Said Mu Tsu and Xian Pu together. "We are supposed to protect you your highness not the other way around." Said Kodachi with a small smile. "Is that how the Senshi acted? Did they expect you to protect them instead of them protecting you?" asked Ranma with a hard edge in his voice. "Yes" whispered Usagi. This made everyone even angrier. "Guys can we worry about this later. First I have a boon to give to the cursed people and then we have to meet the Jurian emperor and the head of the Galaxy Police tomorrow at the Masaki Shrine. "all right I can see Grandpa and Tenchi! It has been too long huh mom?" said Ranma. "Yes dear it has, but what is this boon for those with the Jusenkyo Curses Usagi dear?" asked Nadoka. "A cure I hope." "Well not exactly but I can give them control over their curses so that they won't change with water." Said Usagi. "Is that Okay with you guys?" "YES!!!!" replied the Jusenkyo cursed people. They all had tears in their eyes and blissful smiles on their faces, " This could also help with the Phoenix, Herb and Taro as well your highness. Herb and Taro would love to have control over their curses and many of the Phoenix people have human curses that they would love to control." Replied Cologne. "Usagi dear?" asked Nadoka. "Yes Auntie?" Replied Usa. "Could you please not do that for Genma for a while as punishment for all that he has done to Ranma? Dear this would be a proper punishment for you until you have answered for the pain you put me and our son through due to your carelessness." Genma just hung his head in shame and agreed. Usagi Nodded and took out the Silver and Golden Crystals and with a "MOON HEALING ESCALATION" she used the powers on the rest of the cursed ones. They all screamed in pain for a minute until the power disappeared and tried to put the crystals away. She succeeded with the Silver Crystal but the golden one shot towards Ranma and entered him. His clothing then changed to his knight clothing from the Moon Kingdom. Everyone was stunned. "Um I guess this means that the Golden Crystal has chosen you to be its protector Ranma and my future Husband. Sorry about this." Stated Usagi with her head down thinking of all the trouble that Ranma has had with forced Engagements before. However Ranma walked up to her lifted her chin and kissed her in such a way that all the women in the room swooned. "It's Okay Usa, I have loved you for two lifetimes and I will be happy to be your Husband." Everyone else smiled while Nadoka was lost in the Grandchildren dream again with a giddy little smile on her face mumbling on how manly her son was.
A minute later there were numerous splashed heard from the koi pond and it was noticed that the rest of the cursed ones were missing. They were found in the pound splashing about on crying tears of happiness now that they were no longer vulnerable to a simple splash of water. "How do they change to their cursed forms?" asked Akane. "I want to see my little piggy again," she said which caused Ryoga to blush and the others to chuckle. "They just have to think of it and it will happen." Said Usagi. "I have also altered the curses so that you can bring out some of the aspects of them and not change all the way. For example Mu Tsu should be able to just bring out his wings and fly with them and Xian Pu can change into a werecat type creature which will be stronger and faster then normal. Same with you Ryoga. I also removed the direction Curse with the Golden Crystal since Endymion put it on your family line back in the Silver Millenium. Your ancestor was a better warrior then he was, who wouldn't be throughing Roses for Christ sake, so he cursed your line to get them out of the way since if he killed them he would lose his crown." Well not surprisingly Ryoga was pissed. He would have let out a SHI Shi Hakodan if Akane hadn't put her hand on his arm and whispered reassuringly in his ear. "Don't Worry Ryoga I have an idea that will fix Endy's wagon and help us with Herb. I will however hold that idea until we meet with Herb." Said Usa. Cologne and Ranma gave her an evil grin because they know what she is hinting at. A certain Jusenkyo spring and a certain artifact that the Musk control, looks as if Herb may become the new earth prince by Marriage and consequently make Endy's life hell.
"Well let's head off to the Masaki Shrine now. Everyone get packed and The Guard and myself can teleport everyone there in no time." Said Usagi. Within a half an hour the entire group appeared outside the house by the lake and The Tenchi Gang was there waiting for them. Wash and Sasami gave Usagi a huge hug. While Yosho greeted his oldest daughter and grandson along with Tenchi and Nobouyuki. The introductions were made and stories told. Ayeka and Sasami happy to meet some new family members in Usa, Ranma, And Nadoka. Usagi being their great Aunt. They were also happy to know that there great-grandmother and great grandfather along with their grand father Tranquility and his wife the former Jurian Empress have all been reborn. Yosho said that he was looking forward to meeting them as is Ayeka and Sasami. Nadoka is busy making over Tenchi and all the girlfriends that he has causing him to turn bright red and everyone to laugh. Then a fight breaks out between Ryoko and Ayeka as usual until Nadoka steps in and reminds the girls that as a Jurian Prince Tenchi is required to have more than one wife and could easily merry all of them Which makes all the Tenchi girls blush except for Washu and Kiyone, and gets the interest of Ukyo and Kodachi in Tenchi which makes him real nervous. The rest of the Tenchi gang is in la la land thinking of the honey moons while Kiyone and Washu are looking at Ranma with a hungry look, which begins to make him nervous and Nadoka and Usagi grin. The curses have been revealed as well as Ranma and Usa's engagement. Washu and Kiyone look at Ranma-chan just as hungrily and ask Usa what she thinks about Ranma's cursed form. She answers with a very passionate kiss on the redhead's lips which causes Ranma to turn the same color as her hair and the guys spurt blood out of their noses. They then ask Usa that since Ranma is a Jurian Prince as well will she allow him to marry as he is required by Jurian custom. She smiles as says that if they are interested then she may be able to work something out. At this both Nadoka and Ranma faint for very different reasons. Nodoka in pure bliss and Ranma out of shock.
After all the stories have been told and dinner eaten Usagi, Ranma, and Cologne contacted the Musk, Phoenix, Natsumi and Kurumi, Taro and the Chinese Amazons with Washu's help. The respected groups agreed to help the Princess and the Amazons and the Phoenix were given their own planets as a boon. The Phoenix received the planet Mars and the Amazons received Jupiter and its moons. Taro got his name changed and Natsume and Kuruumi were adopted. Herb and the musk elected o stay on earth when they heard Usa's plan for Endy and agreed to help with that as well Washu transported all the relevant people to the Shrine and greetings and plans were made. The cursed ones wee given control by Usa and then everyone retired for the evening. Tomorrow the cure for the Neko-Ken would start as well as the meeting with the Jurian Emperor and Empresses as well as the Marshal of the Galaxy Police.
-----Tsukino Home-----
Ikouku was sitting on the couch reading a book when she felt all that went on with Usa in Nermia. She smiled and said, "Congratulations my daughter. I hope that you can find happiness now." The doorbell then rang and she and her husband Kenji went to answer it. Shingo was at his girlfriends house looking at the new dolls she and her mother had created. When she opened the door she came face to face with Mamoru and the other former guardians of her daughter. Her heart went out to the tear stricken face of Setsuna but she kept a neutral expression on her face. "Where is Usagi!" demanded Rei. "Who are you to demand anything of my family former Princess of Mars?" stated Kenji. The Senshi gasped. "She told you huh?" said Minako holding a mewing Artimus. Ikkouku laughed and said, "No I told her who you were my former senshi." With that said a crescent moon appeared on her forehead and she transformed into Queen Serenity as Kenji transformed into his Silver Millenium form. The traitors stood there in shock at seeing the King and Queen before them. "How dare you fools betray your oaths and treat your Princess like you did. You are a disgrace!!" she yelled. "Usagi is the disgrace!!" yelled Rei. "She is clumsy, stupid, lazy, and a crybaby! Right Guys!!" Mamoru emphatically nods and the rest of the inners hesitantly nod not quite sure if Rei was completely sane. The Outers just look away from Rei and make no move to acknowledge what she said. Serenity smirks and says, "Well Rei here is a bit of information for you and the rest of you traitors. I had her act that way as a way to test you to see if you were still loyal. Guess what you all failed. What shocks me the most is that Luna and Artimus turned on her as well." He said giving the cats a hurt glare. They looked away in shame. The senshi were stunned and felt their world crumbling around them. Except for Rei and Mamoru. They were even angrier. "So what," Rei said. "Endy am I should be the rulers. We are still better then that daughter of yours bitch and we will rule the universe once we get our powers back!!" The rest of the senshi were stunned and Rei looked as if she was going to continue her tirade until she and Mamoru were surrounded by a silver light and screamed out in pain as electricity shot through them for about five minutes. The girls looked at the Queen to see her eyes glowing a bright silver with an extremely pissed off look on her face. The senshi backed away in fear. When the queen released them the two got up shakily and glared at her. The former outers stood away from the inners and looked at Rei and Mamoru with disgust. They had no idea why the ever listened to Rei and the Bastard, but they no longer would. However the rest of the inners looked torn over what to do. Rei and Mamoru started to leave until Mamoru called to Setsuna, who was standing off by herself, and said. "Setsuna come on were leaving. Don't try to resist you know that you can't resist me. You belong to me and you always will." The others were stunned as Setsuna began to walk over to Rei and Mamoru slowly with her head down. When she reached them she looked at them with such hatred that they lost the smirks that the had as she was walking over. "Go to hell." She said in a low whisper and then punched Mamoru in the face as hard as she could rebreaking his nose that Haruka had broken two days before. And the kneeing him in the balls as hard as she could. He went down like a sack of bricks. He coughed up a little blood as Rei tried to attend to him. Serenity Kenji and the Outers had smiles on their faces while the rest of the inners looked on with wide eyes.
Setsuna then turned to her Queen and Knelt before her with tears in her eyes and begged for forgiveness. She asked her and the outers to enter the house, which hey did after kneeling towards her. The inners she sadly shook her head at as they still looked torn about what to do, so she closed the door and left them. Rei Looked at the inners and yelled at them, "What are you bitches doing help me with him!!" The girls and cats looked at her with anger in their eyes turned and left. They knew that they had blown this chance and hoped to get another one. Rei continued to fume and vowed revenge as she helped the bastard to his feet.
Inside the outers were apologizing to their queen for what they had done. Serenity and Kenji gave them a small sad smile and Serenity said, "It is good that you are remorseful, but it is my daughter that you should apologize to. You may never get you powers and titles back but you may gain her friendship back. I must warn you though that it will not be easy. " The outers were silent for a while thinking about this. "What about her contacting empires from outside of the solar system to help in the rebuilding of the Moon Kingdom? You always told us not to trust the outsiders." Asked Haruka. The rest of the outers looked at her with questioning gazes. Serenity sighed and said, " That was the biggest mistake of my life. It caused me the love of my first born when he met and married the Jurian crown Princess. It was a good match and they loved each other dearly, but due to my paranoia about outsiders it cost me my son, and my kingdom. With Jurai's help Beryl never would have destroyed the Moon Kingdom. I shunned my son when he married her, and yet he still tried to help. Unfortunately many in Jurai didn't like me much because of how I treated them and he had trouble marshaling support. His fleet did not arrive until after I had sent everyone to the future and I lay dying on the moon. I had realized my mistakes and asked for his forgiveness and he gave it. He then asked the Juraian goddess Tsunami to send me to the future as well to be his little sisters mother again. Tsunami agreed and here I am. I found my husband reborn we remarried and had Usagi and later on Shingo." Serenity stopped and the outers took al this in. They no realized their mistakes concerning outsiders and promised that they would apologize to the Starlight's if they ever meet them again. Michiru asked, " Is your son still alive?" Serenity sighs and tells them "No Tsunami had to use some of his life force to send me foreword and that shortened his lifespan. He has been reborn however along with his wife the former empress of Jurai. Normally Juraians take more than one wife due to men being outnumbered by women 5 to 1 on that world. Those two were soulmates though and could not share with another. When he died she soon followed and their son Azusa took the throne. He married on Jurian and one earth woman that he had meet during a pilgrimage to earth in respect to his fathers family. His son since came to earth for a self-imposed exile because he didn't want the throne, or to marry his half sister. They had two daughter, and one of them is one of my best friends. Her son was Usagi's childhood friend. She had a daughter as well but she was stolen from the hospital as a baby. No- chan was devastated until she had Ranma. The little girl had sandy blond hair and blue eyes. She was never found, but the family is ever hopeful that she one day will be." The outers felt bad for the woman and were lost in their thoughts and didn't see Serenity look at all three and pause on a certain one. No one except Hotaru who looked at the girl with a quizzical look. Serenity looked at the clock and transformed back into Ikkouku.. "Well girls it is late and I do not want you out tonight. So you can stay in the Guest rooms." They nodded and went to bed. Hotaru asked, " You highness was your son reborn as.""Shhh." Said Serenity and gave her a nod and a wink. Hotaru smiled and gave her a hug "I am so sorry." She said as she started to cry. The queen wiped her eyes and sent her to bed.
Kenji came into the room with Shingo who had just gotten home, and the family sat down together with Ikkouku wrapping her arms around her son and asked how is day was. As he was telling her and his father what he and his girlfriend did. The two parents looked at one another and vowed that they would not make the same mistakes again. After another hour the family went to sleep. The outers still had troubled sleep, but now they had hope that their princess may allow them back into her life if not as senshi then as friends.
That is all for chapter 2. Guess whom Tranquility was reborn as and who the Jurian empress is. It shouldn't be too difficult. Also guess what Mamoru's punishment will be. I think that I gave enough hints and if you know Ranma ½ then you will know what I am planning for him. What should Taro's new name be? I can't think up a good one. Next chapter will be the meeting with Jurai and GP along with the Neko-ken cure and the revival of the Moon Kingdom. It may take a while since I work full time Monday through Friday so it should be out by Friday at the latest, Hopefully sooner.
Thanks for the reviews. I will be going into a bit more detail in this chapter. I will try to explain all the Jurian and Wrecking crew backstories.
----The Next Morning-----
Everyone had woken up, sparred, (Ranma really sparing with Akane in Public much to her sisters, the parents and Colognes surprise) and had breakfast prepared by Ukyo, Kasumi, Nadoka, Xian Pu and Cologne.

The two couples snuggled to one another and the adults blinked a couple of times but decided it wasn't worth it to argue. This was Destiny against them after all. "I almost called the guys when Galaxia attacked and defeated the Senshi, but I didn't want what happened to them to happen to you guys so I faced her alone and won." Said Usa. "You should have called us anyway Princess" said Kuno. The others nodded. "That's right it is our duty to protect you with our lives" said Ukyo. "That is something that we would be happy to do Princess,." Said Mu Tsu and Xian Pu together. "We are supposed to protect you your highness not the other way around." Said Kodachi with a small smile. "Is that how the Senshi acted? Did they expect you to protect them instead of them protecting you?" asked Ranma with a hard edge in his voice. "Yes" whispered Usagi. This made everyone even angrier. "Guys can we worry about this later. First I have a boon to give to the cursed people and then we have to meet the Jurian emperor and the head of the Galaxy Police tomorrow at the Masaki Shrine. "all right I can see Grandpa and Tenchi! It has been too long huh mom?" said Ranma. "Yes dear it has, but what is this boon for those with the Jusenkyo Curses Usagi dear?" asked Nadoka. "A cure I hope." "Well not exactly but I can give them control over their curses so that they won't change with water." Said Usagi. "Is that Okay with you guys?" "YES!!!!" replied the Jusenkyo cursed people. They all had tears in their eyes and blissful smiles on their faces, " This could also help with the Phoenix, Herb and Taro as well your highness. Herb and Taro would love to have control over their curses and many of the Phoenix people have human curses that they would love to control." Replied Cologne. "Usagi dear?" asked Nadoka. "Yes Auntie?" Replied Usa. "Could you please not do that for Genma for a while as punishment for all that he has done to Ranma? Dear this would be a proper punishment for you until you have answered for the pain you put me and our son through due to your carelessness." Genma just hung his head in shame and agreed. Usagi Nodded and took out the Silver and Golden Crystals and with a "MOON HEALING ESCALATION" she used the powers on the rest of the cursed ones. They all screamed in pain for a minute until the power disappeared and tried to put the crystals away. She succeeded with the Silver Crystal but the golden one shot towards Ranma and entered him. His clothing then changed to his knight clothing from the Moon Kingdom. Everyone was stunned. "Um I guess this means that the Golden Crystal has chosen you to be its protector Ranma and my future Husband. Sorry about this." Stated Usagi with her head down thinking of all the trouble that Ranma has had with forced Engagements before. However Ranma walked up to her lifted her chin and kissed her in such a way that all the women in the room swooned. "It's Okay Usa, I have loved you for two lifetimes and I will be happy to be your Husband." Everyone else smiled while Nadoka was lost in the Grandchildren dream again with a giddy little smile on her face mumbling on how manly her son was.
A minute later there were numerous splashed heard from the koi pond and it was noticed that the rest of the cursed ones were missing. They were found in the pound splashing about on crying tears of happiness now that they were no longer vulnerable to a simple splash of water. "How do they change to their cursed forms?" asked Akane. "I want to see my little piggy again," she said which caused Ryoga to blush and the others to chuckle. "They just have to think of it and it will happen." Said Usagi. "I have also altered the curses so that you can bring out some of the aspects of them and not change all the way. For example Mu Tsu should be able to just bring out his wings and fly with them and Xian Pu can change into a werecat type creature which will be stronger and faster then normal. Same with you Ryoga. I also removed the direction Curse with the Golden Crystal since Endymion put it on your family line back in the Silver Millenium. Your ancestor was a better warrior then he was, who wouldn't be throughing Roses for Christ sake, so he cursed your line to get them out of the way since if he killed them he would lose his crown." Well not surprisingly Ryoga was pissed. He would have let out a SHI Shi Hakodan if Akane hadn't put her hand on his arm and whispered reassuringly in his ear. "Don't Worry Ryoga I have an idea that will fix Endy's wagon and help us with Herb. I will however hold that idea until we meet with Herb." Said Usa. Cologne and Ranma gave her an evil grin because they know what she is hinting at. A certain Jusenkyo spring and a certain artifact that the Musk control, looks as if Herb may become the new earth prince by Marriage and consequently make Endy's life hell.
"Well let's head off to the Masaki Shrine now. Everyone get packed and The Guard and myself can teleport everyone there in no time." Said Usagi. Within a half an hour the entire group appeared outside the house by the lake and The Tenchi Gang was there waiting for them. Wash and Sasami gave Usagi a huge hug. While Yosho greeted his oldest daughter and grandson along with Tenchi and Nobouyuki. The introductions were made and stories told. Ayeka and Sasami happy to meet some new family members in Usa, Ranma, And Nadoka. Usagi being their great Aunt. They were also happy to know that there great-grandmother and great grandfather along with their grand father Tranquility and his wife the former Jurian Empress have all been reborn. Yosho said that he was looking forward to meeting them as is Ayeka and Sasami. Nadoka is busy making over Tenchi and all the girlfriends that he has causing him to turn bright red and everyone to laugh. Then a fight breaks out between Ryoko and Ayeka as usual until Nadoka steps in and reminds the girls that as a Jurian Prince Tenchi is required to have more than one wife and could easily merry all of them Which makes all the Tenchi girls blush except for Washu and Kiyone, and gets the interest of Ukyo and Kodachi in Tenchi which makes him real nervous. The rest of the Tenchi gang is in la la land thinking of the honey moons while Kiyone and Washu are looking at Ranma with a hungry look, which begins to make him nervous and Nadoka and Usagi grin. The curses have been revealed as well as Ranma and Usa's engagement. Washu and Kiyone look at Ranma-chan just as hungrily and ask Usa what she thinks about Ranma's cursed form. She answers with a very passionate kiss on the redhead's lips which causes Ranma to turn the same color as her hair and the guys spurt blood out of their noses. They then ask Usa that since Ranma is a Jurian Prince as well will she allow him to marry as he is required by Jurian custom. She smiles as says that if they are interested then she may be able to work something out. At this both Nadoka and Ranma faint for very different reasons. Nodoka in pure bliss and Ranma out of shock.
After all the stories have been told and dinner eaten Usagi, Ranma, and Cologne contacted the Musk, Phoenix, Natsumi and Kurumi, Taro and the Chinese Amazons with Washu's help. The respected groups agreed to help the Princess and the Amazons and the Phoenix were given their own planets as a boon. The Phoenix received the planet Mars and the Amazons received Jupiter and its moons. Taro got his name changed and Natsume and Kuruumi were adopted. Herb and the musk elected o stay on earth when they heard Usa's plan for Endy and agreed to help with that as well Washu transported all the relevant people to the Shrine and greetings and plans were made. The cursed ones wee given control by Usa and then everyone retired for the evening. Tomorrow the cure for the Neko-Ken would start as well as the meeting with the Jurian Emperor and Empresses as well as the Marshal of the Galaxy Police.
-----Tsukino Home-----
Ikouku was sitting on the couch reading a book when she felt all that went on with Usa in Nermia. She smiled and said, "Congratulations my daughter. I hope that you can find happiness now." The doorbell then rang and she and her husband Kenji went to answer it. Shingo was at his girlfriends house looking at the new dolls she and her mother had created. When she opened the door she came face to face with Mamoru and the other former guardians of her daughter. Her heart went out to the tear stricken face of Setsuna but she kept a neutral expression on her face. "Where is Usagi!" demanded Rei. "Who are you to demand anything of my family former Princess of Mars?" stated Kenji. The Senshi gasped. "She told you huh?" said Minako holding a mewing Artimus. Ikkouku laughed and said, "No I told her who you were my former senshi." With that said a crescent moon appeared on her forehead and she transformed into Queen Serenity as Kenji transformed into his Silver Millenium form. The traitors stood there in shock at seeing the King and Queen before them. "How dare you fools betray your oaths and treat your Princess like you did. You are a disgrace!!" she yelled. "Usagi is the disgrace!!" yelled Rei. "She is clumsy, stupid, lazy, and a crybaby! Right Guys!!" Mamoru emphatically nods and the rest of the inners hesitantly nod not quite sure if Rei was completely sane. The Outers just look away from Rei and make no move to acknowledge what she said. Serenity smirks and says, "Well Rei here is a bit of information for you and the rest of you traitors. I had her act that way as a way to test you to see if you were still loyal. Guess what you all failed. What shocks me the most is that Luna and Artimus turned on her as well." He said giving the cats a hurt glare. They looked away in shame. The senshi were stunned and felt their world crumbling around them. Except for Rei and Mamoru. They were even angrier. "So what," Rei said. "Endy am I should be the rulers. We are still better then that daughter of yours bitch and we will rule the universe once we get our powers back!!" The rest of the senshi were stunned and Rei looked as if she was going to continue her tirade until she and Mamoru were surrounded by a silver light and screamed out in pain as electricity shot through them for about five minutes. The girls looked at the Queen to see her eyes glowing a bright silver with an extremely pissed off look on her face. The senshi backed away in fear. When the queen released them the two got up shakily and glared at her. The former outers stood away from the inners and looked at Rei and Mamoru with disgust. They had no idea why the ever listened to Rei and the Bastard, but they no longer would. However the rest of the inners looked torn over what to do. Rei and Mamoru started to leave until Mamoru called to Setsuna, who was standing off by herself, and said. "Setsuna come on were leaving. Don't try to resist you know that you can't resist me. You belong to me and you always will." The others were stunned as Setsuna began to walk over to Rei and Mamoru slowly with her head down. When she reached them she looked at them with such hatred that they lost the smirks that the had as she was walking over. "Go to hell." She said in a low whisper and then punched Mamoru in the face as hard as she could rebreaking his nose that Haruka had broken two days before. And the kneeing him in the balls as hard as she could. He went down like a sack of bricks. He coughed up a little blood as Rei tried to attend to him. Serenity Kenji and the Outers had smiles on their faces while the rest of the inners looked on with wide eyes.
Setsuna then turned to her Queen and Knelt before her with tears in her eyes and begged for forgiveness. She asked her and the outers to enter the house, which hey did after kneeling towards her. The inners she sadly shook her head at as they still looked torn about what to do, so she closed the door and left them. Rei Looked at the inners and yelled at them, "What are you bitches doing help me with him!!" The girls and cats looked at her with anger in their eyes turned and left. They knew that they had blown this chance and hoped to get another one. Rei continued to fume and vowed revenge as she helped the bastard to his feet.
Inside the outers were apologizing to their queen for what they had done. Serenity and Kenji gave them a small sad smile and Serenity said, "It is good that you are remorseful, but it is my daughter that you should apologize to. You may never get you powers and titles back but you may gain her friendship back. I must warn you though that it will not be easy. " The outers were silent for a while thinking about this. "What about her contacting empires from outside of the solar system to help in the rebuilding of the Moon Kingdom? You always told us not to trust the outsiders." Asked Haruka. The rest of the outers looked at her with questioning gazes. Serenity sighed and said, " That was the biggest mistake of my life. It caused me the love of my first born when he met and married the Jurian crown Princess. It was a good match and they loved each other dearly, but due to my paranoia about outsiders it cost me my son, and my kingdom. With Jurai's help Beryl never would have destroyed the Moon Kingdom. I shunned my son when he married her, and yet he still tried to help. Unfortunately many in Jurai didn't like me much because of how I treated them and he had trouble marshaling support. His fleet did not arrive until after I had sent everyone to the future and I lay dying on the moon. I had realized my mistakes and asked for his forgiveness and he gave it. He then asked the Juraian goddess Tsunami to send me to the future as well to be his little sisters mother again. Tsunami agreed and here I am. I found my husband reborn we remarried and had Usagi and later on Shingo." Serenity stopped and the outers took al this in. They no realized their mistakes concerning outsiders and promised that they would apologize to the Starlight's if they ever meet them again. Michiru asked, " Is your son still alive?" Serenity sighs and tells them "No Tsunami had to use some of his life force to send me foreword and that shortened his lifespan. He has been reborn however along with his wife the former empress of Jurai. Normally Juraians take more than one wife due to men being outnumbered by women 5 to 1 on that world. Those two were soulmates though and could not share with another. When he died she soon followed and their son Azusa took the throne. He married on Jurian and one earth woman that he had meet during a pilgrimage to earth in respect to his fathers family. His son since came to earth for a self-imposed exile because he didn't want the throne, or to marry his half sister. They had two daughter, and one of them is one of my best friends. Her son was Usagi's childhood friend. She had a daughter as well but she was stolen from the hospital as a baby. No- chan was devastated until she had Ranma. The little girl had sandy blond hair and blue eyes. She was never found, but the family is ever hopeful that she one day will be." The outers felt bad for the woman and were lost in their thoughts and didn't see Serenity look at all three and pause on a certain one. No one except Hotaru who looked at the girl with a quizzical look. Serenity looked at the clock and transformed back into Ikkouku.. "Well girls it is late and I do not want you out tonight. So you can stay in the Guest rooms." They nodded and went to bed. Hotaru asked, " You highness was your son reborn as.""Shhh." Said Serenity and gave her a nod and a wink. Hotaru smiled and gave her a hug "I am so sorry." She said as she started to cry. The queen wiped her eyes and sent her to bed.
Kenji came into the room with Shingo who had just gotten home, and the family sat down together with Ikkouku wrapping her arms around her son and asked how is day was. As he was telling her and his father what he and his girlfriend did. The two parents looked at one another and vowed that they would not make the same mistakes again. After another hour the family went to sleep. The outers still had troubled sleep, but now they had hope that their princess may allow them back into her life if not as senshi then as friends.
That is all for chapter 2. Guess whom Tranquility was reborn as and who the Jurian empress is. It shouldn't be too difficult. Also guess what Mamoru's punishment will be. I think that I gave enough hints and if you know Ranma ½ then you will know what I am planning for him. What should Taro's new name be? I can't think up a good one. Next chapter will be the meeting with Jurai and GP along with the Neko-ken cure and the revival of the Moon Kingdom. It may take a while since I work full time Monday through Friday so it should be out by Friday at the latest, Hopefully sooner.
