Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or Sailor Moon. *makes a face* that would mean that I own Serena's obnoxious personality and *shudders* Wormtail! *cowers at the very thought*

A/N: Hello everyone! This is really early and I'm very proud of myself for writing so quickly. ^^ I hope everyone loved the last chapter and don't mind that I clumped all of the romance into one chapter. Now, on with the show!

Summary: Senshi Star was perfectly content to live out her life as a soldier of the Moon without question or thought. When the wizard prince of Elysian arrives as a peace sign from the Earth with three very familiar friends, her world is turned upside down. Will they find love? Or will they be separated by the doom which is destined to befall the Moon Empire?



Selena Phantom Star walked through the hallways of her castle. Yes, it was her castle now as well that of the people that she loved the most. She still looked the same as she had for the past century but she felt much older than ever before. In a vibrant red dress and with her hair in a loose braid, she seemed to shine from the inside and the outside. Her belly was the only thing that seemed out of place. She had been pregnant for eight months and she could only walk because of the years she had spent in strained training.

Godric was twenty now and a handsome king. No longer was he the young prince that he had been a year earlier with a new, shining bride and a bright future awaiting him.

Right after the three weddings for each of the couples, the King and Queen of Elysian were brutally murdered in their own beds. Their bodies had been found by Godric himself when he went to see if they would agree to have lunch with all of them. Their bodies had been mangled and distorted, their eyes still wide open and their mouths hanging open and filled with blood. Their murders nearly destroyed Godric and he still kept the search for their murderers going as he was chosen to become king. The Trail of the Heir had been initiated as it always was when a King and Queen dead and Godric passed the tests that he had been training for since his birth. Noomy and Orion were crestfallen at the death of their brother and Chaos couldn't be spoken to for months.

Selena had been devastated and would often cry with Godric when they went to sleep each night. The truth was that the two Gryffindor royals had been like the mother and father that she had witnessed murdered so many years ago and Godric took some comfort in knowing that his wife knew exactly how he felt. Helga and Rowena were saddened to see the parents of their best friend die the way they had when their lives had been so wonderful. Salazar was affected just as badly as Godric and Selena. He felt that he and Godric had subconsciously been brothers and that the King and Queen had been HIS parents as well.

It took everyone a long time to finally be able to smile.

Godric had begun to go to the Hogwarts castle more and more and returned to his kingdom less and less. True, he never disregarded his subject or ignored their needs, but there were too many memories there for him to remain sane. He finally asked that Selena move with him into the castle so as only to go to the kingdom for specific reasons and instead opted to do all of the work necessary to be King while at Hogwarts. Helga managed to amuse him at last with various plights that nearly got her killed, including discovering what was known as a Blast-Ended Skwert in the newly created Forbidden Forest.

Hecate, Saturn, and Selena became pregnant at around the same time. All three of them sprang the news on their husbands that they were going to have children and the shock made all three of them faint. Happiness finally returned with the promise of children and Godric was finally able to crack a smile at the thought of being a father. He just hoped that he could be as wonderful a father as his father had been to him.

Selena looked around the hallways to make sure that no one would see her as she opened one of the doors in the hallway and entered the room. There was a large hole in the center of the room and Selena carefully leapt down while minding her stomach until her feet crashed to the floor. She took a moment to catch her breath, straighten her dress and make sure that she hadn't done anything to hurt her child before she began to walk through the dark tunnels of Salazar's domain.

Looking around, she smiled at the decorum of the chamber. The ceiling was a hundred feet above the ground and cloaked in shadows. There was an empty space where the Basilisk was being raised and Helga had jokingly suggested putting a statue of Salazar when he was an old man so that he could look upon it and laugh at the long years he had spent down in that "dungeon" as Rowena called it. There was an almost invisible catwalk around the entire chamber that could only be accessed through a hidden fountain on the ground floor where various fountains of snakes had been placed. The catwalk led into the founders' private library where the Goddesses had placed special weapons from their own planets there. Even the Goddesses on the Moon and in their rightful kingdoms sent them various talismans and weapons to form a collection of immortal, magical creations.

When Selena came to the opened door, she heard hissing and spiting from inside and paused for a moment just to hear the two snakes conversing in the same language. After growing a bit tired just standing there, she stepped into the enormous Chamber of Secrets where Salazar sat on a raw piece of stone. Curled around his right arm was a green serpent with its eyes closed shut and its forked tongue continuously flicking against Salazar's cheek.

"What are you saying to her?" Salazar was momentarily startled to see Selena standing right behind him, her belly being the only thing keeping her from being right on top of him. He made room for her to sit down (which was a miracle in itself).

"You shouldn't be down here. It isn't good for your health and besides, what would I do if you went into labor?" Salazar said once she had made herself more or less comfortable. She smiled warmly at him.

"Hopefully you won't faint and leave me to give birth to my child alone." He smiled weakly and very gently traced the soft ridges around the baby Basilisk's eyes. Loving her master's caress, she began to hiss contentedly and a faint smile appeared on his face. "What's she saying?"

"That she likes when I do this." He said with a faint note of fondness as he changed the pressure in his fingers so that the snake could push against his hand. "Snakes are so easy to talk you. They don't judge people on appearances and they're smart and talk about interesting things." He said. Selena watched him for a long time before a dreamy smile came over her features.

"You're like a snake then, Sly. You talk about interesting things and you don't judge others on appearances. Saturn chose well." Salazar smirked at her, delighted by her compliment. They sat in silence for a long time before Salazar looked toward her.

"Would you like to pet her?" Selena nodded and leaned as far as she could to trace the ridges on the Basilisk's eyes just as she had been watching Salazar do. The snake knew immediately that it wasn't her master petting her but she didn't seem to mind in the least bit. She hissed just as contentedly and she leaned toward Selena just as she had done for her master.

"Are you ever going to leave?" Salazar finally demanded out of the blue. Selena paused in her petting and the snake protested immediately. Salazar took up the task but refused to look towards the pregnant Goddess sitting beside him.

"What do you mean? Why would I leave?" It took him a little while to finally get the courage to explain what he was saying.

"Will you ever leave us? Will you ever just forget about the Earth and never come back? Will you, abandon us one day? I know that we won't live forever like you and Yin will but, will you ever just leave?" Selena looked directly into his eyes and there was the shadow of her former, icy self that he had met those years ago on the Moon for the first time. He could see the mirror image of her old mask returning to her features and something very close to numbness began to cover Salazar.

"This is my home. If I must leave this planet for whatever reason, I will always return. If that isn't a possibility, I'll bring all of you with me. I've chose the life that I wish to live and I'll never return to being a slave to my past. From now on, this is for me and for all of the people that I love. I have ties to the past anymore and I refuse to ever leave you Sly. Understand? I will never leave you." He starred into her eyes for a long time, the Basilisk forgotten and complete silence.

Finally, a relieved smile donned his features. He nodded. "I'm holding you to your word. You promised never to leave me." Selena smiled and tickled the snake beneath her chin. She giggled when her blind forked tongue tickled her fingers and she stood up laboriously to smile down at Salazar. He followed after her to the secret staircase that would lead them back to the surface. He wanted to feel better, but he couldn't shake off the feeling that something terrible was coming.

Selena watched him out of the corners of her cobalt eyes and smiled to cover her actions. Her Senshi senses were telling her that a great evil was coming. The Gods came to her dreams more and more often. They continued to give her instructions of what the school would require for protection and went to the Human Realm less and less. Selena didn't want to worry the others, but she could feel the strain on her mind and in her heart just knowing what was going to happen.

There was a strange tone to the Gods when they spoke to her. They no longer communicated with mortals and they seemed saddened every time they saw her. Often they remained with her as long as they could before she would wake up feeling a deep sense of forbidding. What could possibly be happening that would mean that the Gods would leave this world? They had protected it for all of time! Were they leaving as the Prophecy foretold? Were they abandoning their duty?

How could she stop destruction that she couldn't see?
