Author's Notes
Again the characters are just doing this for my entertainment and do not belong to me. Also, the senshi in this story do not need their transformation pens to transform, they are naturally able to transform when it is called for.

Chapter One: Sailor Mercury

Ami walked home from her first day of school as the day's events ran through her head. It is amazing, she mused, and so strange how Usagi-chan so readily accepted me. Ami was so wrapped up in her thoughts of Usagi-chan that she never noticed the onyx colored cat creeping slowly behind her. I wonder of she is always like that, so ready to be friends with everyone. She really needs to be careful, she is so innocent that someone could just really hurt her. Ami could see someone just tearing up Usagi-chan as she tried to befriend them. Just the thought of it had Ami homicidal towards the imaginary person. The protective streak she felt towards Usagi-chan was so strange to her, yet felt so familiar at the same time.

As Ami neared her apartment building that her mom and she lived in, she stopped and looked up to the balcony where they lived. I should probably head to the Crown Arcade. I did promise Usagi-chan that I would help her with the homework that Hurano-sensei assigned. Suddenly, the cat bounced onto Ami's shoulder. "Sailor Mercury, you must remember your past! WE MUST FIND THE PRINCESS AND PROTECT HER!" The cat practically screamed into Ami's ear.

Ami jumped and turned her head to the cat. "I must be dreaming, no cat talks!" She said out loud.

"Sailor Mercury... You must remember your history, you must remember your past." The cat chanted and suddenly thousands of images of a blurred princess, of other guardians, and times of friendship, pleasure and of pain assaulted her mind.

"Oh GODDESS! Lady Luna! Where is the Heiress Princess?" The sailor suited senshi Mercury, now stood where the meek girl Ami Mizuno once stood.

"That is our mission now, Mercury. The Queen sent us here, but she did not send me with the Princess. The Princess is all alone and with no one to protect her." Luna, the onyx cat, replied.

"Oh Goddess! We will find her Lady Luna. But first, I must get to the Crown Arcade. Usagi-chan, the girl from my school told me that she would meet me there today if I was willing to help her with the homework." Ami replied, as her transformation slowly faded away.

"I remember everything, Lady Luna, but I have obligations in my current form as much as I have as a senshi. We will find the Princess, but in the meantime, can you please tell me what has been going on since the fall of myself and of the palace?" Ami asked as she started towards the arcade.

"After Prince Endymion jumped in the way of the blast meant for his princess, Princess Serenity was overwhelmed with grief. All of her guardians were gone, destroyed by the enemy, even you had fallen to the image of your soul mate. The princess grabbed the sword strapped to her love's waist and plunged into her stomach aiming for her heart. Her Majesty and I cried out for her, running as fast as we could to get to her... But it was too late. By the time we reached her, the blood pooled around her and the Queen fell into it. I remember the Queen's eyes as she looked around the palace, to all the fallen guardians, and finally to her child and her child's love. I watched as the sorrow that filled them became an empty void. 'What do you want to do?' I asked the Queen as she called forth her scepter. 'I want you to go into the future, with the Princess, the Prince of Earth, and all the guardians and all the Generals of Earth and start anew. My crystal can start it over, but there will be no memories of this time as long as the peace lasts.' She replied as the Moon Crystal started to glow. I tried to speak to the Queen, and that is the last that I remember of it until you saved me." Luna explained into Ami's ear as they walked the streets towards the arcade.

As the words were spoken, Ami could see the image of her love standing in front of her, the sword glistening with the blood that dripped down the blade to the ground of the moon. She saw the heartache in his eyes as he raised the sword to the sky and arched the weapon towards her and her scream pierced the air around them. She shuddered after the images left her in a confused and saddened state.

"Why did it happen though, Lady Luna?" Ami whispered under her breath, so the people around them would not think she was insane to be talking to herself out loud.

"An admirer of the Princess took exception that she would not choose him over her love. He wanted the Princess and when she refused him, his only goal became the destruction of everything and everyone that she held dear and those that they held dear." Luna replied.

Ami sighed in sadness at the thought of the pain the Princess must be in, and she vowed to herself that she would find the Princess as soon as she could. Ami could see the Crown Arcade's sign just ahead. "Luna, let me help Usagi-chan, and then I will meet with you again as soon as I am finished. I give you my solemn word as a Sailor Senshi." Ami said with all seriousness.

"Of course, Mercury, but please hurry. We must find the Princess as soon as possible." Luna replied as she jumped down from Ami's shoulder and turned away. "I will meet you at your home." Luna stated as she started walking back the way they had come from.

Ami sighed and straightened her shoulders. I will make it through this and I WILL find the Princess. She thought to herself as she entered the door to the arcade. Usagi's blonde hair stood out in the crowded arcade, Ami smiled and headed towards the bar stool next to her.

"Konnichiwa Usagi-chan!" Ami said as she sat down and took out the math book for the homework due.

"Konnichiwa Ami-chan." Usagi replied, a slight tremor in her voice.

"What's wrong, Usagi-chan? Did something happen?" Ami asked, concerned for her new friend.

"Oh, nothing Odango Atama can't handle!" A musculine voice from the side said.

Ami turned to the voice, as a soft cry escaped from Usagi, to find a university student, a very handsome university student, with his dark raven hair and sea blue eyes, but a very rude one. His green jacket was hideous, but it was well worn. Ami looked at him in shock. Why was he being so mean to Usagi-chan?

"Who are you to be calling Usagi-chan, Odango Atama?" Ami demanded from him.

"I am the poor boy that she always manages to run into and spills my coffee in the morning." He readily replied.

"Ami-chan, just please forget him, I really need help on this." Usagi said so softly for a moment Ami thought she had hear something but wasn't sure.

"Of course, Usagi-chan. Let's go over to a booth though, so you don't have to deal with any unpleasant asses." Ami said back as she touched Usagi's shoulder and motioned to a booth on the other side of the arcade.

"See what you did Mamoru-kun?" Motoki said, as he whipped up a new chocolate shake for his favorite and close customer and friend, Usagi.

"What it isn't like she is learning anything anyways..." the university student, Mamoru, mumbled.

*Flashback*

Usagi entered the arcade, a bounce to her step. Ami will be a great friend, and she will blossom very nicely at school once she gets use to everyone. She thought to herself as she headed towards the counter, not paying any attention to the people around her. Mamoru was getting up from his seat when Usagi walked right into him.

"What is your problem, Odango Atama? Don't you know how to walk on your own feet?" He asked as he winced in pain for his poor foot.

"Shut up, you baka! At least I don't wear the same ugly green jacket everyday!" She replied, getting heated that this ass would be so mean to her.

"Well, it's not my fault you didn't learn anything from your parents or gym teachers about how to walk." He stated. Ouch, I really shouldn't have said that. She doesn't deserve it. He thought to him.

Usagi looked up at him, the tears starting to well up at the side of her eyes. "How... how... how could you say something like that? You are such a baka! I wish you to the pits of Dante's Inferno!" She yelled at him as she walked over to her seat.

"Wow! You did learn something in school... Maybe your head isn't as empty as it first appears." Mamoru said as he walked to the bathroom.

"Hey, Usagi-chan, don't let Mamoru-kun get to you." Motoki said as he placed a chocolate milkshake in front of her. Usagi just stared at it in wonder, the tears falling freely down her face. Maybe I should just go home, I don't know if I can take anymore from that baka. She thought. No, I promised Ami-chan that I would be here for her to meet me for help on that assignment Hurano-senshi assigned.

*End of Flashback*

Okay, so there you go for now, I like doing smaller chapters so you aren't at the computer for hours on end trying to finish just one chapter. So review please! Soon, maybe, there might be a youma, or even better, maybe Zoisite will appear! Muh Ha Ha Ha!
