Disclaimer: I don't own Sailormoon
A/N: thank you for the great reviews (really I just can't thank you enough since it really makes me happy to see how people think of my first story). Anywho on with the story.
Mamoru stood in the balcony of his room looking out at the night sky. Dinner was a few hours ago. Everyone had been surprised when he and Usagi walked into the dining room hand in hand. Mamoru recalled how Minako and Rei had a knowing smile on their face. The group did not probe into how the couple got back together, but did warn Mamoru to never hurt Usagi again. Mamoru slightly shivered at remembering Mako and Rei's glare as they made their point of what they would do if he pulled as they put it "a stupid stunt" like that ever again.
Mamoru's face darkened a little at remembering why he was out in the balcony in the first place. The nightmare had struck him again as soon as he had fell asleep, but that was not concerned him the most. Mamoru was more concerned of how different the nightmare was this time. Rather than just the usual warning of staying away from Usagi, the voice in the dream had commented on his decision to stay with Usagi. The voice had scoffed at him when Mamoru had yelled back at the voice saying he will protect Usagi after it had warned him to stay away. What disturbed Mamoru the most was the voice's last comment, "So you will no longer listen to me Earth Prince. Be that as it may, Serenity does not belong with you. Soon she will be with the one who she's better suited for, me."
Mamoru had woken up from the voice's laughter after that comment. 'The voice sounded different this time...It seems familiar, but I just can't remember where I heard it before,' Mamoru thought, 'but that doesn't matter right now because I'm now sure I made he right decision in not pushing Usako away anymore. Whoever the voice belongs to was only trying to separate us and I was stupid enough to fall for it.'
Mamoru walked back into his room. As he fell asleep, he vowed to protect his princess and that nothing will ever separate them ever again.

The next morning, after breakfast was over, everyone met up in the conference room. Chibi-usa was not present because the senshis let her sleep in. They felt Chibi-usa needed her rest and they will just fill her in on anything important during the meeting later.
"Now that everyone is here, I have something to announce. As I have said yesterday, the King had not felt it was the right time to reveal himself since he was waiting for something to occur," Diana said while looking at Tuxedo-Kamen, "But now that Price Endymion is back with Princess Serenity, the King will be joining us in this meeting."
Everyone turned their head toward the entrance where a figure is seen walking toward them. When the King had finally entered the room, surprise was written all over everyone's face.
"You look just like Mamo-chan," Sailor Moon said breaking the silence.
Everyone looked from Tuxedo Kamen to the King who was in a light purple tuxedo with a cape, but unlike Tuxedo-Kamen, the King did not have a top hat and his hair was light purple. Tuxedo-Kamen could only stare at the King wondering why they look alike.
"Someone please explain what's going on," Mars exclaimed.
"This is King Endymion of Crystal Tokyo," Diana said as the King stood at the head of the table where Diana is.
"King Endymion," Tuxedo-Kamen said in a dazed and surprised voice.
"Yes, I am your future self," the King said with a chuckle at everyone's shocked look, "I rule Crystal Tokyo with my wife Neo-Queen Serenity," he finished looking at Sailor Moon.
"Wife," Sailor Moon said as her face began to turn red.
"Yes, that was why I could not reveal myself earlier. I did not want the reason for the two of you to make up was due to the fact you know of this," the King said.
"But I am curious to know, what status is Chibi-usa," Mercury asked.
"Yeah, why would the Dark Moon Clan try to capture or kill a little girl," Jupiter put in.
"Chibi-usa is the daughter of Neo-Queen Serenity and myself because of this the Dark Moon Clan targets her," the King said with sadness.
"Wait, this means that Chibi-usa is Sailor Moon and Tuxedo-Kamen's future daughter," Venus exclaimed as all four senshis looked at the couple whose faces have turned tomato red from their stares.
Then a thought suddenly struck Sailor Moon. "Hold on. Chibi-usa wanted the Ginzuisho to help her mother. Does that mean something happened to Neo-Queen Serenity," Sailor Moon asked the King.
The King's face turned glum at Sailor Moon's question. "I'm afraid so. You see during the first attack by the Dark Moon clan she went searching for Chibi-usa concerned for her safety. She found Chibi-usa fleeing from several droids outside the palace barrier. She was able to destroy the droids after she had gotten Chibi-usa inside the palace barrier, but before she herself reached the barrier, she was attacked from behind by Rubeus who at the time was leading the attack. The senshis of this time, which are you four's future selves, were able to bring Neo-Queen Serenity in her weakened and wounded state back into the palace."
"Does the Ginzuisho not help the Queen to heal quickly and properly," Luna asked.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple. She was already exhausted from destroying the droids attacking the palace and to top it off Rubeus knew regular attacks would do little harm to the experienced Neo-Queen Serenity so he had increased the dark crystal energy by several folds. This left dark energy from the dark crystal running inside her body. Since she was already so weakened, the Ginzuisho is only able to keep her alive and slowly heal her wound in her coma, but the Ginzuisho is not able to expel the dark energy which keeps her in a coma" the King said.
"What about the medical ability of this time," Mercury asked.
"Most of the advance medical technology was destroyed in the attack and your future self is not able to help since all four of your future selves are right now powering the palace barrier with their own energy. Since the Dark Moon Clan has been unable to break through, they went to the past hoping to alter history. Chibi-usa knew of the legendary Sailor Moon and her senshis from stories I've told her, so I guess she decided to go back to the past to find help," the King said.
The rest of the meeting went by with the King informing them about the Dark Moon Clan's history and how the only option is to defeat the leader, Prince Demando. The King sadly told Sailor Moon that her Ginzuisho will not be able to help the Queen. The only way was to destroy the main dark crystal inside the Dark Crystal Palace. This will dispel the dark energy inside Neo-Queen Serenity allowing the Ginzuisho to completely heal her and on top of that the Dark Moon Clan's main power source will be destroyed.

"Saphir prepare an attack on Crystal Palace," Demando said with a smile as he took a sip from his wine glass while sitting on his throne.
"But brother, the barrier is still strong," Saphir replied.
"That does not matter. I'm sure the senshis will come out to defend the palace as they will be too worried for the well being of the senshis of this time...besides you have completed the device I asked you to construct have you not," Demando said as he twirled his wine glass.
"Of course brother," Saphir replied, "but who will lead the attack?"
"I will personally do so. I want you to remain here to keep watch on the palace," Demando said.
"What of Esmeraude," Saphir asked.
"If she dare interfere with my plans again, I will kill her," Demando said and gazed at the hologram of the Queen. He tipped his glass at the image thinking, 'Soon Serenity you will belong to me.'
A/N: Another chapter down. Just to clarify, in my fic Chibi-usa did not steal the Ginzuisho so Neo-Queen Serenity still has it...Chibi-usa is only targeted because of who her parents are. So what did u think? Review would be appreciated. Also school is starting for me next week so i don't know when I will update, but i do hope it will not be over a month before i update.
