Author's Note: Hello again! Again, this chapter's a tiny bit short, but there were enough significant events going on that I felt I could break it off here. (Besides, if I didn't break it off here, I'd have had to wait at least two more sengments to break it safely again)
If you've been reading this properly, you know the summary, which is in the First Chapter.

Disclaimer: It is to be known that Lady Katsu-hime, the author of this fanfiction, does not own Sailor Moon or any characters associated with the anime/manga Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon. She does not own the Three Lights song, "Search For Your Love," which (I just found out), has a proper title of "Shooting Star." Lady Katsu-hime, however, does own the plotline of this story, and the character Tsukino Chiyoko/Sailor Eternal Star.

WARNING: Moderate language in this chapter ONLY, mild Chibiusa-bashing throughout the story, mild Mamoru bashing throughout the story on Seiya's, Usagi's, and Chiyoko's part.

Just So You Know: Just like Chiyoko's mother says, Setsuna-san only knows the future until the point that she left the Gates of Time to come to Usagi's century. If you're confused about the whole "Chibiusa wasn't even in the picture" thing, keep reading.

Kami-sama is God.


Chapter Four
A Promise and a Name

Chiyoko leaned against the wall, hidden, listening closely to what Usagi and her guest were saying.

"...if we don't find Mamoru-san soon, Chibiusa-chan won't be born, and the entire history of Crystal Tokyo will be thrown off course!" The green-haired woman stated.

Chiyoko grimaced. Damn that meddling girl! Damn her to hell! Didn't she know she was interfering with Chiyoko's mission by placing these doubts into Usagi's head? Small Lady/Chibiusa wasn't even in the picture!

"You mean, you couldn't find Mamo-chan in America?" Usagi's blue eyes widened. She was suddenly ripped in two. On one hand, she wanted Mamoru out of the way--that way she wouldn't have to tell him about Seiya. On the other, she was devoted to him because of their destiny together; she wanted to give birth to Small Lady, whom she had befriended, and the only way that could be accomplished was to stay with Mamoru.

Chiyoko heard both the outward concern and the underlying joy in Usagi's voice, and a hope blossomed in her heart. As long as Usagi could forget about Mamoru and that pink-haired child of a whore, everything would be perfect.


The broken pieces are not enough (please stay by my side, Sweetheart)…

"Chiyoko-chan, I hope you can accomplish this..." Neo-Queen Serenity sighed, looking up at the moon. She really did need to re-establish her kingdom there, away from this horrid place and all its memories.

Dreadful things were happening in Serenity's time...it was the 31st century now, wasn't it? Small Lady had been taken away, finally, and the Queen hoped she never saw that devillish child again.

No, no, Serenity thought to herself. Small Lady really is a sweet girl. And she can't help the circumstances of her birth.

Serenity sighed. Truly, she did not hate Small Lady. But that little pink-haired girl had been the source of all her problems lately, and Serenity couldn't take it anymore.

When Chiyoko had been born, sixteen years ago, Neo-Queen Serenity had told the baby's father to take her away from Crystal Tokyo...at least for awhile.

"She cannot stay here now," Serenity had said. "All of the children born during this time are being sent away as well, to grow up normally, away from all the troubles here. Send her back to her mother when she turns fourteen. I will have a mission for her then."

Fourteen years later, Serenity saw Chiyoko again, and she was a headstrong girl with a loving heart, taking directly after both parents. Serenity had trained her, and when she had seen the Mark of a Senshi on the child, the Queen gave her the Eternal Starlight Compact. The two had become very close friends by the time Chiyoko turned sixteen, and Serenity found herself a soul twin.

Now that Chiyoko had gone back in time, Serenity felt terribly alone.

The Queen of Crystal Tokyo could only hope that Chiyoko could complete her mission and return safely. Otherwise, Crystal Tokyo's history would be rewritten...again.


You smiling face is like a small star…

Seiya was getting impatient. He was sitting outside of the Crown, waiting for his blonde, blue-eyed angel, and she was twenty minutes late.

No, now it was twenty-five, by Seiya's watch. He sighed and stood up to leave. She probably wasn't coming.

"Seiya-chan!" Usagi called, running to catch up with him. She definitely had explaining to do, but she'd tell him the truth. No secrets between them, except the big secret...

"Odango, where have you been?" Seiya stopped and turned to speak to her.

"Can we go inside and talk about it?" Usagi asked, pointing at the Crown. Seiya nodded and accompanied her inside, to a small table in the corner.

"Gomen nasai, Seiya-chan, I know I was really late, but you see, a friend of mine stopped by who had something really important to talk about, and I told it had to wait, because I was going out to meet someone, but she said it couldn't wait, and she wouldn't move until I let her in and she said what she had to say. Gomen, gomen, gomen!"

Seiya just blinked. "Woah, slow down a minute, Odango. What was the important something she had to talk about?"

Usagi blinked twice. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you..."

"I swear to Kami-sama that I won't laugh or anything. Just tell me."

Usagi played with a napkin for alittle bit, shredding it up into pieces before answering. "Well, Mamo-chan and I have a daughter. From the future. We know this because she comes back in time to visit sometimes. Setsuna-san said that Mamo-chan hasn't been answering my letters because he's gone missing. And if he goes missing and he never comes back, then Chibiusa-chan won't be born, she says. And that would be just awful!"

Seiya bit his lip. It wasn't that he didn't believe her, but that he could tell from the tone of her voice that she still wasn't telling him something. And I'm not telling her something as well, he thought to himself.

"Odango, there's something you're not saying. Remember, no secrets between us?"

Usagi shook her head. "I can't tell, because you'd never treat me the same. Besides, I know you're hiding something, too. I won't tell you anything else until you tell me. No sercrets between us, remember?"

Seiya grimaced. He was afraid of that. "I can't tell you here. It's too public. Besides, it's something I'd have to show you. How about some other time?"

"Promise?" Usagi challenged, holding out her slender hand.

"Promise!" Seiya replied, shaking her hand to seal the bond.


Usagi-san had a guest today, Meioh Setsuna. You both know her. She's trying to interfere with my mission. Today she told Usagi-san that if they didn't find Chiba Mamoru soon, then Chibiusa-san wouldn't be born. Usagi-san was very upset over this, and also very happy. I'm hopeful that things will start to turn out how they are supposed to. She just came home ecstatic; apparently Seiya-kun is going to come over here and tell her some big secret soon. She said that they agreed to have no secrets between them.

I'm getting a little worried about Meioh-san and her meddling, though.

Eagerly awaiting your communication, as always,

Your daughter,

Chiyoko-chan

No sooner had Chiyoko sealed the letter than the little circular disk on her nightstand began to glow and spin. The image of her mother appeared, making Chiyoko suddenly homesick.

Suddenly, Chiyoko looked down and saw that she had transformed into her senshi self. This was common to the talks with her mother, so she didn't act surprised or anything.

"Mother, I have a new letter for you," the senshi stated, holding out the sealed envelope.

The graceful, stately woman held out her hand and took the letter. "Let me read it." Quickly she gazed at it, then folded it up again. "Sailor Eternal Star," she began.

"Yes, Mother?" Sailor Eternal Star drew closer to the image.

"Be aware that Meioh Setsuna is the Senshi of Time, Sailor Pluto. She knows of the future of Crystal Tokyo until such time as she returned back to aid Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus. She does not know of you, or of the true circumstances of Chibiusa-san's birth. Usagi-sama does not know of this either, for neither I nor my mother have spoken to her. Do not let anyone know your true identity, or of your true home. Be watchful of the events around you. Help them only when help is needed. You know all these things, but I must reinforce them.

"As for your new mission...I want you to keep a close eye on Meioh Setsuna."

"Yes, Mother. I have accepted the mission."

"Good. I want you to continue to report. Remember to place every letter you write on the disk. It will come to me immediately."

Sailor Eternal Star bowed. "I understand. I miss you."

The lady's image smiled. "I'll tell you father you said hello. We miss you as well." The image shimmered and disappeared.

Sailor Eternal Star de-transformed, and Chiyoko flopped onto her bed. Meioh-san is getting to be a bigger problem than I thought, she said inwardly to herself.


Another Author's Note: FINALLY, the new senshi has a name!!! Aren't you proud of me?
Well, stay tuned for the next episode of Eternal Starlight!
