Usagi awoke to the smell of someone making a delicious breakfast downstairs. She looked at her clock and noticed it was late morning, about three hours away from the time they were going to meet Andrew. She decided that she would shower first then go eat breakfast since her face was probably a mess from crying last night. Plus, she probably still had some blood in her hair from the battle. She grabbed some undergarments from her drawer and then she trotted of to the shower connected to her room. 'At Yaten's insistence my behind. I may be blond but I'm not stupid Seiya.' She thought, remembering Seiya's speech last night. She put on a short, midnight blue sundress with sunflowers on it. She sat at her vanity to put on some make-up and do her hair. 'Hm, what to do with my hair today. It's really too long to do anything with it besides braid it or put it in a bun. If I cut it, it will just grow back when I transform so there is no point in that. Well, I guess I'll just braid it then.' She quickly french-braided her hair, the put on some make-up to hide her red and puffy eyes. She went down stairs and saw the guys watching some Japanese cartoon. 'Hm, I think its called DragonballZ? Oh well'. "Where's my food?"
"On a plate in the oven." Yaten barely got that out for he was laughing over something that someone on the show was saying. Chibi-usa was practically rolling on the floor while Seiya and Taiki just chuckled to themselves.
She went to the oven and got out her plate. 'Mmm, big, fluffy, blueberry pancakes, sausage, bacon, eggs, and hash browns. Seiya really out did himself this time.' She quickly finished her plate and went to the family to go talk to the guys about their plans today.
"Good morning mom. What are we going to do today?" Chibi-usa asked.
"Well at one o'clock, we're going to the arcade to meet some fans and then we'll probably explore for the rest of the day." She said. Just then, the doorbell rang. "Hm, I wonder who that could be. It's too soon for fans, so it's probably not them." She went up to go get the door.
"Why haven't you told her yet?" Yaten whispered to Seiya.
"I forgot. Anyway, WE'RE going to tell her. We'll wait till she comes back." Seiya whispered back.
At the Door
Usagi opened the door and immediately recognized who they were. Using the direct approach, she said, "Well hello Uranus, Neptune, and Saturn. What brings you to my neck of the woods?"
Shocked by their princess' forwardness, Haruka answered, "Well princess, we're your new neighbors and we decided to drop by and say hello. Michiru made some apple pie and we brought over some ice cream for it. Nice fight last night. How are you holding up?"
"Hm, from the things you said last night, I didn't think you cared."
Michiru then butted into the conversation saying, "Oh please, Haruka couldn't keep her mouth shut last night. She went on and on about how brave you are and how you haven't changed one bit."
"Really, somehow, I actually believe that. I didn't see Saturn at the fight."
"I was there. I was hiding in the bushes. Haruka-papa and Michiru- mama thought it was best that I didn't reveal myself yet. You're the only other person that knows besides them. Not even the Inners or Prince know. Can we come in?"
"Oops, how rude of me. Come on in. I'll introduce you to the guys and Chibi-usa." She led them through the foyer and to the back where everyone was at in the living room. "Hey guys, I have someone who I'd like you to meet. This is Haruka Ten'oh, Sailor Uranus, Michiru Kaioh, Sailor Neptune and Hotaru Tomoe, Sailor Saturn. Girls, this is Seiya Kou, Sailor StarFighter, Yaten Kou, Sailor StarHealer, and Taiki Kou, Sailor StarMaker and this darling little girl is her Royal Highness, Neo-Princess Usagi Serenity Chiba, Crown Princess to the thrown of Crystal Tokyo or Chibi-usa for short.
"CHIBA?!" Haruka screamed.
"NEO-PRINCESS?!" Hotaru screamed also.
"CRYSTAL TOKYO?!" Michiru, the last one to scream.
Serena and the guys laughed at the shocked expressions on their faces. "I take we have a lot of explaining to do. Sit down, it's kind of a long story. It all began when we were battling three youma and Emerald. I was taking on Emerald while the others were battling the youma. A flash appeared above us and I heard a voice telling me to take of this girl for she was special and valuable to the future. Protect her with your life. Well, whoever made the portal wasn't very smart for they had made it very high up in the air. I had sent a rather powerful blast at Emerald and had run to catch the child. I had caught her, but since she was falling from a high place the force of her falling knocked me down along with me being weak from the blast. By the time all this had happened, the others had finished their youma and had surrounded Emerald. Emerald had done the smart thing and had taken her leave, but not before she gave one calculating glance at the child, then smiled deviously. The child, who turned out to be Chibi-usa and my future daughter, had passed out during her fall and had lain limp in my arms. Standing had proved to be a difficult task that I had accomplished and I had taken a few steps before I fainted. As it turns out, the blast had taken more out of me then I had originally thought. Seiya had luckily caught me and had explained to my parents that I would be staying over a friend's house tonight since it wasn't a school night. I awoke later that night to find the mysterious girl still asleep and the guys looking over her and me. After I had replenished my energy with a chocolate bar and had looked over my previous injuries to find them already healed, the girl had finally awoken. She introduced herself as her Royal Highness, Neo- Princess Usagi Serenity Chiba, Crown Princess to the thrown of Crystal Tokyo. Needless to say, we were all shocked. She shocked us more by shouting Mommy and running toward me for a hug. It turns out that she was my daughter from the future, which had been attacked by Prince Demando of the Dark Moon and was currently in shambles. Sailor Pluto, for protection and for the Ginzishou, had sent her to the past. Everything pretty much went back to normal except for having a six-year-old kid around, then tragedy struck. Prince Demando was getting fed up with me beating his youma and decided to take matters into his own hands. He had recently figured out who I was in real life and dug up everything he could find on me. Knowing how much of a caring person I am from the healing of the three sisters and Saffire, he hit me where it hurt most-my family. Emerald had caused a distraction with seven youma and herself while Demando and some youma snuck in my house and brutally murdered my family. By the time I had figured out, it was too late. I arrived to see my house in shambles. I walked in to find my dad's head decapitated on the floor by where he was sitting reading the paper. My brother's limbs were cut off. His hands still held the controller to Play Station he had just gotten for Christmas." She took a deep breath, then continued. "My mom was the worst. I found her up in my room. I guess she was putting clothes away. She had her wrists slit and her throat was a little. She had slits and bruises all over her body. When I had walked in, Demando was in the midst of raping her. I guess I had made a sound. A gasp or a half scream because he turned around and looked at me. His expression changed from one of pure boredom to that of pure lust. I knew immediately that he imagined me there instead of my mother. I couldn't move. I just stood there and let that happened. He soon finished saying my name at the end then disappeared. I finally came out of my stupor to see my mother lying there, beaten and broken. I kneeled by her and saw that she was still conscious. She looked at me and said two words that couldn't have caught me more off guard. She said, 'I knew.' Then she died. I kneeled there and cried for what could have been five minutes to an hour. Suddenly all my suffering and grief turned into rage and fury. The more I thought about it, the angrier I became. Then I disappeared in a flash of light. I reappeared where I soon found out was the Dark Moon command center. I quickly transformed and turned around to see Demando sitting on a throne. Before I could fry his ass, he disappeared and I heard his voice all around me saying, 'I would love to deal with you right now Serenity, but I see you're too enraged to hold a civilized conversation. Maybe Emerald could calm you down for a while. After all, she did come up with that brilliant plan.' She then showed up and we began to duke it out. She never stood a chance. She was far too arrogant and I was far too angry for her to even have a chance. I sent a final blast at her that disintegrated her, but totally left me drained. I soon fainted right after. I woke up in Seiya's room three days later with silver hair."
"I believe this is where I come in your highness." a portal opened behind them and out step senshi with long green hair in a bun that flowed down to her thighs with bangs in the front. Her skirt, boots, choker, and collar were so dark that they seemed black. Her bows were a dark maroon color and her gemstones were garnet.
"Puu, I missed you." Chibi-usa jumped off the couch and ran to give Sailor Pluto a hug.
"I missed you too, Small Lady. Now back to business."
"Sailor Pluto, you're the one who saved me?" Usagi asked.
"Of course, you didn't think that I would leave my own princess in the hands of the enemy. Besides, that was not supposed to happen. When I saw you faint I hurriedly rushed too your side but I was almost too late. I had sent a blast at Demando that had knocked him to the other side of the room and I grabbed you and made a portal that took us to the Three lights home. Then I disappeared the way I came without anyone noticing. I was also responsible for the reports saying how someone passing by shot your parents. As for your hair, the only explanation I can give is that the moon blast you sent at Emerald somehow sped up the process of your aging. It was supposed to happen when you turn eighteen."
"That was you? I want to be mad at you, but I can't. I'm the only one who saw what happened first hand. I don't think I could've took seeing it on the news too. So why did you decide to show up now?" Serena asked.
"The time gates have closed up on me. I can no longer see the future. It seems as if we have a problem bigger than Prince Demando and the Dark Moon on our hands. Seiya, Yaten, and Taiki, would you care to explain?"
"I'm sure you would like to detransform and get comfortable. It is a long story." Seiya confirmed. She nodded and in a flash of shimmering purple lights, she stood in a pair of khaki shorts and a lavender tank top. She sat next to Chibi-usa on the couch and nodded for Seiya to continue. "First off, we haven't been totally honest with you Usagi. We only told you our princess was missing. We didn't say how or why. We originally came from Kinmokusei. Our princess, Princess Kakyuu was from the kingdom of Dankei. The princess didn't disappear as we said she did, she escaped. Our planet was attacked by the evil entity Chaos, who had taken on the form of Sailor Galaxia. Our total power combined plus the princess' didn't even scratch Chaos. We retreated to the palace; the only building left standing and formed a plan. We were to distract Chaos while the princess was to escape."
"Why was Chaos after your princess." Asked Michelle.
"Chaos wasn't after our princess. She was after her starseed. A starseed is the very essence of a person's soul and without it, they would die. (AN: I actually have no idea what would happen without a starseed. I have yet to see the Sailor Moon Stars Saga.) She is after all the senshi's starseeds because they shine forever and of course to rule the galaxy. Anyway, the princess escaped to a safe planet, your planet. We believe Chaos is also on this planet but is currently waiting to show herself. We are trying to find the princess before Chaos does. She is currently without protection would be too much of an easy target."
"How strong is Chaos?" Haruka inquired.
"Take the Dark Moon and times it by 1000 and you've got Chaos." Taiki answered.
"How could you guys not tell me? Was I not important enough? Did you not trust me?" Usagi demanded.
"It's wasn't like that Usagi. We were trying to protect you. You were so swamped with Demando and Chibi-usa and your parents and ice-skating, I didn't want to put more pressure on you. You have to believe me Usa, I never meant for it to go on this long. I was trying to protect you." Seiya reasoned.
"Well you know what Seiya, I don't need protection. I got this far with little or no help and I am doing perfectly fine. Did you forget that I'm stronger than all the scouts combined excluding you guys? I can take care of myself."
"Princess, with all do respect," Setsuna started, "Your no good to us until you reach your full power. Everytime you use too much of your power, you faint. One time, you're going to use too much power and you're not going to wake up. Until you turn eighteen and receive your birthright, it would be wise to be more careful. Contrary to what you believe, you do need protection. Sure, you maybe stronger than all the scouts, but you're only seventeen; still a child. You need to be more careful. Look at that stunt you pulled last night, if Rubeus has any type of brains, you would be with Prince Demando right now instead of us."
"Why do you faint after you use too much power? Is it because of the crystal?" Hotaru asked.
"Not really Hotaru. Back in the Silver Millennium when I was full lunarian, I had powers other than the crystal. I could fire blasts and do things with my mind: like telepathy and telekinesis. I also could teleport and do magic. Now since I was born an earthling, doing those simple tasks drain my energy. They are lunarian powers and for an earthling like me to do is simply draining since I'm not lunarian. As I get closer and closer to my birthday, I become more lunarian and I get more access to my powers until I turn eighteen and receive my birthright, that would make me a full lunarian. Until then, I can only do so much. Now the crystal automatically drains a person's energy, however, only a lunarian royal can touch it for if anyone else were to would mean death. If you use all the crystals power, then it starts to drain your power until there is none left. The crystal also automatically protects the holder or holders. I split mine in half and gave it to Chibi-usa for protection." Usagi finished.
"That's correct Usagi. I'm glad to see you have gotten together with the Outers. They will be a great help to this threat." Luna said making herself known.
"Luna, where have you been? These are the Outers: Haruka Ten'oh, Sailor Uranus; Michiru Kaioh, Sailor Neptune; Hotaru Tomoe, Sailor Saturn; and uh, I don't think I caught your name Pluto." Usagi blushed and looked expectantly at Pluto
"Setsuna Meioh or Puu as Chibi-usa calls me." Setsuna supplied.
"Nice to meet you all. I've been on the roof talking over things with Diana who happens to be my future daughter. Now that we joined up with the Outers, we can get a hold of the Inners and join up with them. I think we'll need all the help we can get. Now, I think I can get a hold of Artemis, Sailor Venus' guardian cat, and we can probably work out a meeting place sometime this weekend. I personally think Saturday would be good.."
"NO!" Usagi stated firmly.
"Well if Saturday isn't good then maybe." Luna said
"I mean that I don't want to set up a meeting with them. The Outers came to me on their own. They came to me because they respected me, because they trusted me. I want it to be the same with the Inners." Well it was the half the truth. The Outers did come to me, just not they way I said it was.
"Usagi, we don't have time for those games. The Inners are going to need to train with you guys. You can earn their trust later. You can't just ignore them."
"I don't plan on ignoring them. I'll still train them, but I won't let them know of my identity. We can't work as a team if we can't trust each other. It's either my way or no way at all Luna."
"Fine Usagi, but I still don't think that is wise. According to Diana, those youmas last night were extremely weak and it took a while for the Inners to beat them. The ones you faced in America were about ten times stronger. Demando is going to start getting desperate. One of his generals is defeated and the other is converted. Central Control tells me that Rubeus is much weaker than Emerald and I bet Demando knows that. The final attack against the Dark Moon approaches rather quickly. The Inners need to be trained properly with your training tools in the basement."
"I know Luna. We'll be training them in the forest where we can't attract attention. Near the park since that's where most attacks seem to be. Well train before school and right after school for two hours. If need to be, we'll train a third time, later in the day and we'll bring the training tools in the basement with us. Well since all that is taken care of, we're supposed to be at the arcade in fifteen minutes. Since Chibi-usa and I are ready, we'll go on ahead and explain your tardiness. Go get your shoes Chibi-usa." Chibi-usa nodded and ran upstairs to get her shoes. "Haruka, Michiru, do you know how to contact the scouts."
"On Wednesdays and Thursdays, we usually train at six o'clock. Why don't you come with us?" Michiru suggested.
"That would be too obvious Mich, they already know we live next to them. If they were to show up with us at practice transformed, they would know exactly who they were."
"Well then, I guess I'll have to crash it then. When I show up with the guys, you guys have to act a little hostile toward us or they will get suspicious. So where do you guys train at?" Usagi smiled. She loved to catch people of guard.
"In the forest near the park. You should be able see color lights and such." Hotaru said.
"Mommy, I'm ready." Chibi-usa said coming down the stairs.
"Well we'd better get going. We have an extra room at the house if you want to stay in it Setsuna." Michiru said as she, Haruka, and Hotaru all got up.
"That would be nice. Thank you." Setsuna responded as she too got up.
"Well, I guess I'll see ALL you guys transformed at six fifteen." Usagi said, looking pointingly at Hotaru and Setsuna.
"If you wish, your highness." Setsuna said slightly bowing then following Haruka, Michiru, and Hotaru out
"Does she ever stop calling me your highness Chibi-usa." Usagi smirked slightly
"Yes, in the future she calls you her majesty." Chibi-usa giggled knowing that was not the answer Usagi hoped for.
"Well hopefully we can change that." Usagi sighed as she walked out the door. 'Some things never change.'
Before at the Senshi meeting:
"Well Ami, did you find any more information on her?" Makoto asked.
"There seems to be a block on my computer. I couldn't get any information on her at all." Ami said sadly.
"I brought a magazine with a bio on her from the store today. According to this, she was born in Japan but moved to Glendale, California when her father's job transformed. It goes on to say how she met up with Seiya of the Three Lights when she was just a freshman in high school and they have been inseparable ever since first becoming friends then something more. She even went on tours with them during the summer. All through, that, she went to the ice skating rink every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. That AND she managed to keep a 4.0 g.p.a. Wow, I wish I had her smarts." Minako said smiling.
"You would if you actually studied. What does the rest say?" Rei said impatiently.
"Well it goes on to say what her favorites are: food; chocolate, color; lavender, actor; Josh Hartnett, actress; Jennifer Aniston, subject; math ugh, and her favorite thing to do is to hang out with her friends and to ice skate of course. Hmm, she seems pretty cool. I can't wait to meet her on Friday."
"Minako, would you get on with it. No one cares about what her favorites are." Rei snapped.
"Well someone obviously woke on the wrong side of the bed this morning. Anyways, it goes on about her life in high school and how she didn't fit in with most of the girls. As a matter of fact, most of her friends were guys."
"Hmm, she probably slept with have of them." Rei remarked bitterly.
"Jeez Rei, would you get off her case. What is your problem? You still can't be mad about last night can you? Even I got over it. If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were jealous of her." Makoto responded.
"Yea Rei, besides this magazines states that the only guy she's been with was Seiya. Her first and only." Minako stated.
"She had sex with that pretty boy." Mamoru said as he snatched the magazine.
"Geez Mamoru, didn't know you swung that way." Minako said smiling while Mamoru just glared. "They had been going out for two years plus, they even stayed together when they went on tour. They also sang some songs together. Jealous Mamoru?"
"No I'm not jealous. And no, I don't 'swing that way'. I just assumed she would be a virgin." His facial expression changed as from one of jealousy to one of shock and sadness as he continued to read the bio on her.
"What is Mamoru?" Ami asked seeing his facial expression.
"It says here that her parents and little brother were shot a few months ago by someone passing through. It appears that they have yet to catch the culprit. Somehow I don't believe that story."
"Why not?" Makoto asked.
"Well for one, why would some passer by shoot her family? It just doesn't make sense. According to some cop they interviewed who appeared at the scene, there was blood everywhere. Too much for just three bullets through the chest. It just seems a little suspicious to me. Do think it had something to do with the Dark Moon?"
"Since when did the Dark Moon use guns. Last time I checked they used blasts and youma." Rei asked, her curiosity piqued.
"Actually, someone could have made it look like that as to not alert anyone. It's very possible Mamoru could be right." Ami stated.
"True but come on, you know the Dark Moon has never actually murdered anyone. Just the usually energy drain. Why would they want to murder someone now." Makoto said not believing that the Dark Moon would do such a thing.
"I don't really know. It all seems too plausible to me. Well I hate to cut this discussion short but Motoki wanted me to come up to the arcade at one so I'll probably see you guys at the training session." Mamoru said as he got and grabbed his jacket.
"Probably before that. We'll be up at the arcade in a little bit." Minako said, then added slyly, "You can keep the magazine if you want to. I know it can get lonely up in that apartment of yours."
"MINAKO!" Mamoru voiced glaring still gripping the magazine contemplating rather to keep it or give it back and save his pride. Deciding on the former, he waved goodbye then left.
"Yea, see you Mamoru." Makoto said. "Minako, what has been up with you lately? You can't seem to get your mind out of the gutter."
"Nothing, just excited to see that Mamoru has finally taken interest in a girl. Now I can put my matchmaker skills to work." She clasped her hands together to form a plan. 'Hmm, now where can I start?'
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Well that's it for now. Next Usagi and Mamoru finally meet. Oh and don't forget to review and VOTE ON THE GENERALS.

I knew immediately that he imagined me there instead of my mother. I couldn't move. I just stood there and let that happened. He soon finished saying my name at the end then disappeared. I finally came out of my stupor to see my mother lying there, beaten and broken. I kneeled by her and saw that she was still conscious. She looked at me and said two words that couldn't have caught me more off guard. She said, 'I knew.' Then she died. I kneeled there and cried for what could have been five minutes to an hour. Suddenly all my suffering and grief turned into rage and fury. The more I thought about it, the angrier I became. Then I disappeared in a flash of light. I reappeared where I soon found out was the Dark Moon command center. I quickly transformed and turned around to see Demando sitting on a throne. Before I could fry his ass, he disappeared and I heard his voice all around me saying, 'I would love to deal with you right now Serenity, but I see you're too enraged to hold a civilized conversation. Maybe Emerald could calm you down for a while. After all, she did come up with that brilliant plan.' She then showed up and we began to duke it out. She never stood a chance. She was far too arrogant and I was far too angry for her to even have a chance. I sent a final blast at her that disintegrated her, but totally left me drained. I soon fainted right after. I woke up in Seiya's room three days later with silver hair."
"I believe this is where I come in your highness." a portal opened behind them and out step senshi with long green hair in a bun that flowed down to her thighs with bangs in the front. Her skirt, boots, choker, and collar were so dark that they seemed black. Her bows were a dark maroon color and her gemstones were garnet.
"Puu, I missed you." Chibi-usa jumped off the couch and ran to give Sailor Pluto a hug.
"I missed you too, Small Lady. Now back to business."
"Sailor Pluto, you're the one who saved me?" Usagi asked.
"Of course, you didn't think that I would leave my own princess in the hands of the enemy. Besides, that was not supposed to happen. When I saw you faint I hurriedly rushed too your side but I was almost too late. I had sent a blast at Demando that had knocked him to the other side of the room and I grabbed you and made a portal that took us to the Three lights home. Then I disappeared the way I came without anyone noticing. I was also responsible for the reports saying how someone passing by shot your parents. As for your hair, the only explanation I can give is that the moon blast you sent at Emerald somehow sped up the process of your aging. It was supposed to happen when you turn eighteen."
"That was you? I want to be mad at you, but I can't. I'm the only one who saw what happened first hand. I don't think I could've took seeing it on the news too. So why did you decide to show up now?" Serena asked.
"The time gates have closed up on me. I can no longer see the future. It seems as if we have a problem bigger than Prince Demando and the Dark Moon on our hands. Seiya, Yaten, and Taiki, would you care to explain?"
"I'm sure you would like to detransform and get comfortable. It is a long story." Seiya confirmed. She nodded and in a flash of shimmering purple lights, she stood in a pair of khaki shorts and a lavender tank top. She sat next to Chibi-usa on the couch and nodded for Seiya to continue. "First off, we haven't been totally honest with you Usagi. We only told you our princess was missing. We didn't say how or why. We originally came from Kinmokusei. Our princess, Princess Kakyuu was from the kingdom of Dankei. The princess didn't disappear as we said she did, she escaped. Our planet was attacked by the evil entity Chaos, who had taken on the form of Sailor Galaxia. Our total power combined plus the princess' didn't even scratch Chaos. We retreated to the palace; the only building left standing and formed a plan. We were to distract Chaos while the princess was to escape."
"Why was Chaos after your princess." Asked Michelle.
"Chaos wasn't after our princess. She was after her starseed. A starseed is the very essence of a person's soul and without it, they would die. (AN: I actually have no idea what would happen without a starseed. I have yet to see the Sailor Moon Stars Saga.) She is after all the senshi's starseeds because they shine forever and of course to rule the galaxy. Anyway, the princess escaped to a safe planet, your planet. We believe Chaos is also on this planet but is currently waiting to show herself. We are trying to find the princess before Chaos does. She is currently without protection would be too much of an easy target."
"How strong is Chaos?" Haruka inquired.
"Take the Dark Moon and times it by 1000 and you've got Chaos." Taiki answered.
"How could you guys not tell me? Was I not important enough? Did you not trust me?" Usagi demanded.
"It's wasn't like that Usagi. We were trying to protect you. You were so swamped with Demando and Chibi-usa and your parents and ice-skating, I didn't want to put more pressure on you. You have to believe me Usa, I never meant for it to go on this long. I was trying to protect you." Seiya reasoned.
"Well you know what Seiya, I don't need protection. I got this far with little or no help and I am doing perfectly fine. Did you forget that I'm stronger than all the scouts combined excluding you guys? I can take care of myself."
"Princess, with all do respect," Setsuna started, "Your no good to us until you reach your full power. Everytime you use too much of your power, you faint. One time, you're going to use too much power and you're not going to wake up. Until you turn eighteen and receive your birthright, it would be wise to be more careful. Contrary to what you believe, you do need protection. Sure, you maybe stronger than all the scouts, but you're only seventeen; still a child. You need to be more careful. Look at that stunt you pulled last night, if Rubeus has any type of brains, you would be with Prince Demando right now instead of us."
"Why do you faint after you use too much power? Is it because of the crystal?" Hotaru asked.
"Not really Hotaru. Back in the Silver Millennium when I was full lunarian, I had powers other than the crystal. I could fire blasts and do things with my mind: like telepathy and telekinesis. I also could teleport and do magic. Now since I was born an earthling, doing those simple tasks drain my energy. They are lunarian powers and for an earthling like me to do is simply draining since I'm not lunarian. As I get closer and closer to my birthday, I become more lunarian and I get more access to my powers until I turn eighteen and receive my birthright, that would make me a full lunarian. Until then, I can only do so much. Now the crystal automatically drains a person's energy, however, only a lunarian royal can touch it for if anyone else were to would mean death. If you use all the crystals power, then it starts to drain your power until there is none left. The crystal also automatically protects the holder or holders. I split mine in half and gave it to Chibi-usa for protection." Usagi finished.
"That's correct Usagi. I'm glad to see you have gotten together with the Outers. They will be a great help to this threat." Luna said making herself known.
"Luna, where have you been? These are the Outers: Haruka Ten'oh, Sailor Uranus; Michiru Kaioh, Sailor Neptune; Hotaru Tomoe, Sailor Saturn; and uh, I don't think I caught your name Pluto." Usagi blushed and looked expectantly at Pluto
"Setsuna Meioh or Puu as Chibi-usa calls me." Setsuna supplied.
"Nice to meet you all. I've been on the roof talking over things with Diana who happens to be my future daughter. Now that we joined up with the Outers, we can get a hold of the Inners and join up with them. I think we'll need all the help we can get. Now, I think I can get a hold of Artemis, Sailor Venus' guardian cat, and we can probably work out a meeting place sometime this weekend. I personally think Saturday would be good.."
"NO!" Usagi stated firmly.
"Well if Saturday isn't good then maybe." Luna said
"I mean that I don't want to set up a meeting with them. The Outers came to me on their own. They came to me because they respected me, because they trusted me. I want it to be the same with the Inners." Well it was the half the truth. The Outers did come to me, just not they way I said it was.
"Usagi, we don't have time for those games. The Inners are going to need to train with you guys. You can earn their trust later. You can't just ignore them."
"I don't plan on ignoring them. I'll still train them, but I won't let them know of my identity. We can't work as a team if we can't trust each other. It's either my way or no way at all Luna."
"Fine Usagi, but I still don't think that is wise. According to Diana, those youmas last night were extremely weak and it took a while for the Inners to beat them. The ones you faced in America were about ten times stronger. Demando is going to start getting desperate. One of his generals is defeated and the other is converted. Central Control tells me that Rubeus is much weaker than Emerald and I bet Demando knows that. The final attack against the Dark Moon approaches rather quickly. The Inners need to be trained properly with your training tools in the basement."
"I know Luna. We'll be training them in the forest where we can't attract attention. Near the park since that's where most attacks seem to be. Well train before school and right after school for two hours. If need to be, we'll train a third time, later in the day and we'll bring the training tools in the basement with us. Well since all that is taken care of, we're supposed to be at the arcade in fifteen minutes. Since Chibi-usa and I are ready, we'll go on ahead and explain your tardiness. Go get your shoes Chibi-usa." Chibi-usa nodded and ran upstairs to get her shoes. "Haruka, Michiru, do you know how to contact the scouts."
"On Wednesdays and Thursdays, we usually train at six o'clock. Why don't you come with us?" Michiru suggested.
"That would be too obvious Mich, they already know we live next to them. If they were to show up with us at practice transformed, they would know exactly who they were."
"Well then, I guess I'll have to crash it then. When I show up with the guys, you guys have to act a little hostile toward us or they will get suspicious. So where do you guys train at?" Usagi smiled. She loved to catch people of guard.
"In the forest near the park. You should be able see color lights and such." Hotaru said.
"Mommy, I'm ready." Chibi-usa said coming down the stairs.
"Well we'd better get going. We have an extra room at the house if you want to stay in it Setsuna." Michiru said as she, Haruka, and Hotaru all got up.
"That would be nice. Thank you." Setsuna responded as she too got up.
"Well, I guess I'll see ALL you guys transformed at six fifteen." Usagi said, looking pointingly at Hotaru and Setsuna.
"If you wish, your highness." Setsuna said slightly bowing then following Haruka, Michiru, and Hotaru out
"Does she ever stop calling me your highness Chibi-usa." Usagi smirked slightly
"Yes, in the future she calls you her majesty." Chibi-usa giggled knowing that was not the answer Usagi hoped for.
"Well hopefully we can change that." Usagi sighed as she walked out the door. 'Some things never change.'
Before at the Senshi meeting:
"Well Ami, did you find any more information on her?" Makoto asked.
"There seems to be a block on my computer. I couldn't get any information on her at all." Ami said sadly.
"I brought a magazine with a bio on her from the store today. According to this, she was born in Japan but moved to Glendale, California when her father's job transformed. It goes on to say how she met up with Seiya of the Three Lights when she was just a freshman in high school and they have been inseparable ever since first becoming friends then something more. She even went on tours with them during the summer. All through, that, she went to the ice skating rink every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. That AND she managed to keep a 4.0 g.p.a. Wow, I wish I had her smarts." Minako said smiling.
"You would if you actually studied. What does the rest say?" Rei said impatiently.
"Well it goes on to say what her favorites are: food; chocolate, color; lavender, actor; Josh Hartnett, actress; Jennifer Aniston, subject; math ugh, and her favorite thing to do is to hang out with her friends and to ice skate of course. Hmm, she seems pretty cool. I can't wait to meet her on Friday."
"Minako, would you get on with it. No one cares about what her favorites are." Rei snapped.
"Well someone obviously woke on the wrong side of the bed this morning. Anyways, it goes on about her life in high school and how she didn't fit in with most of the girls. As a matter of fact, most of her friends were guys."
"Hmm, she probably slept with have of them." Rei remarked bitterly.
"Jeez Rei, would you get off her case. What is your problem? You still can't be mad about last night can you? Even I got over it. If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were jealous of her." Makoto responded.
"Yea Rei, besides this magazines states that the only guy she's been with was Seiya. Her first and only." Minako stated.
"She had sex with that pretty boy." Mamoru said as he snatched the magazine.
"Geez Mamoru, didn't know you swung that way." Minako said smiling while Mamoru just glared. "They had been going out for two years plus, they even stayed together when they went on tour. They also sang some songs together. Jealous Mamoru?"
"No I'm not jealous. And no, I don't 'swing that way'. I just assumed she would be a virgin." His facial expression changed as from one of jealousy to one of shock and sadness as he continued to read the bio on her.
"What is Mamoru?" Ami asked seeing his facial expression.
"It says here that her parents and little brother were shot a few months ago by someone passing through. It appears that they have yet to catch the culprit. Somehow I don't believe that story."
"Why not?" Makoto asked.
"Well for one, why would some passer by shoot her family? It just doesn't make sense. According to some cop they interviewed who appeared at the scene, there was blood everywhere. Too much for just three bullets through the chest. It just seems a little suspicious to me. Do think it had something to do with the Dark Moon?"
"Since when did the Dark Moon use guns. Last time I checked they used blasts and youma." Rei asked, her curiosity piqued.
"Actually, someone could have made it look like that as to not alert anyone. It's very possible Mamoru could be right." Ami stated.
"True but come on, you know the Dark Moon has never actually murdered anyone. Just the usually energy drain. Why would they want to murder someone now." Makoto said not believing that the Dark Moon would do such a thing.
"I don't really know. It all seems too plausible to me. Well I hate to cut this discussion short but Motoki wanted me to come up to the arcade at one so I'll probably see you guys at the training session." Mamoru said as he got and grabbed his jacket.
"Probably before that. We'll be up at the arcade in a little bit." Minako said, then added slyly, "You can keep the magazine if you want to. I know it can get lonely up in that apartment of yours."
"MINAKO!" Mamoru voiced glaring still gripping the magazine contemplating rather to keep it or give it back and save his pride. Deciding on the former, he waved goodbye then left.
"Yea, see you Mamoru." Makoto said. "Minako, what has been up with you lately? You can't seem to get your mind out of the gutter."
"Nothing, just excited to see that Mamoru has finally taken interest in a girl. Now I can put my matchmaker skills to work." She clasped her hands together to form a plan. 'Hmm, now where can I start?'
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Well that's it for now. Next Usagi and Mamoru finally meet. Oh and don't forget to review and VOTE ON THE GENERALS.
