Chapter 7: Jack Was A What?

Jack couldn't believe what he was hearing. He couldn't even really process it. Father? Who's Father? Who was a Father? Ok, wait, he was a Father. Serenity's father!?

"What are you saying? I don't have any living children! I don't appreciate the joke!" Jack was all but shouting by the end, but Serenity just regarded him calmly, if a bit sadly.

"I am afraid I'm not being very clear. How shall I put this…" Serenity glanced at Mamoru for guidance.

"What Serenity is trying to say is that you are her father. However you are not the father of Tsukino Usagi." Mamoru tried to clarify as best he could.

Sam broke in, "Are you saying the Colonel was the father of her past life but not her present? But then you're getting into the belief of reincarnation which is scientifically impossible."

"Scientifically impossible? Probably. Impossible for us? No. Nothing is beyond the realm of possibility for Senshi." Rei said this with a slight smirk and pulled a sutra from her pocket. She chanted quietly for a moment and the tip of the sutra burst into flames.

Several clicks were heard as the guards came to attention.

General Hammond broke in, "Stand down men. I think Miss Hino was simply trying to make a point."

Ami, who was sitting next to Rei, reached over and put her fingers directly into the flame. Before anyone could protest the fire went out with a hiss, and the sutra was covered in a thin layer of frost.

"I too am a scientist, however I have come to realize that not everything can be explained with science. We were sent to this time by Selenity-sama, Serenity-hime's mother." Ami said as she sent a slightly reproachful look Rei's way.

Jack watched a similar scene play out in his mind. Mars was arguing with a visiting dignitary about the existence of magic, and lit a flame as an example. Mercury had come forward, put out the flame Mars had lit in the man's drink, and quickly apologized.

Jack blinked and he was back in the conference room. What had that been? A memory? He glanced up to find Serenity watching him intently.

"Your starting to remember aren't you? What it was like back then?" She looked both happy and sad at this.

Jack looked at Serenity and thought about remembering. If he was remembering a past life, why couldn't he remember her? What he had seen so far had to do with the Senshi. He closed his eyes and questioned the part of himself which had been urging him to remember.




As soon as he did this he found himself in a young girls room watching as she played with several friends. She looked up at his approach and squealed.

"Papa! Did you come to take me horse back riding? Or ice skating? Oh, I love you Papa!" As she spoke the little girl jumped into his arms and hugged him tight.

As she pulled back Jack got a good look at her face. Serenity! She was younger, certainly, but there was no mistaking that face or hair style.

Jack heard his own voice as though from far away, "I'm afraid I cannot take you horse back riding or ice skating today, moon of my heart, we have go and meet new friends that have come to visit you."

As he spoke Jack carried Serenity from the room and the memory faded.


He opened his eyes to find everyone starring at him with looks of shock, awe, and wonder on their faces.

Daniel spoke up, "Jack your forehead… its glowing."

"The symbol of the royal family," Hotaru said quietly.

As they spoke the faintly glowing crescent moon on Jack's forehead faded from sight. Jack decided to ignore that for a moment and focus on what he had just remembered.

"I use to call you the moon of my heart, didn't I?"

A tear slipped down Serenity's cheek before she could stop it. "Yes, you used to call me that. I had not realized you had awakened so far. But then you were the King of the White Moon."

"If you are my daughter, then what now, what do you want from me?" Jack asked this a tad desperately.

"I would like to get to know you again, and share with you the past." Serenity said this kindly.

Sam interrupted, "I'm sorry, buy what did you mean by calling Jack King of the Moon? And why do all of you have some relation to the planets?"

"We get our names from our home planets. I'm Sailor Jupiter because in my past life I was born a princess of Jupiter." Makoto said this as if it should be the most obvious thing in the world.

"But the planets are uninhabitable. How could you have lived there?" Sam demanded in a slightly frustrated voice.

"The Alliance was attacked and all the planets laid waste to, save Earth. After the attack our Queen sent the souls of her people to be reborn here on Earth." Setsuna spoke from her place at the far end of the table.

"Before the attack all the planets and several of the moons in this solar system supported life. All but Earth were joined in an alliance under the White Moon. Earth would have joined upon the completion of the union between Serenity and Endymion." Artemis spoke from where he was draped over Minako's shoulder.

"As King of the White Moon, my Father was second only to my Mother in rule over the Silver Alliance. He took care of most of the military related issues on the Moon." Serenity said this with a great deal of pride.



Daniel was scratching notes across the paper in front of him. "So the society was matriarchal in nature. Interesting, where did the name of the alliance come from?" The last was mumbled under his breath as he continued to make notes.

"Perhaps there is an easier way to explain all of this. Would anyone care for a trip to the moon?" Serenity asked with a mysterious smile on her face.


Ok, I think I'll stop there. Please R&R!
