Minako sighed as the rest of the senshi gathered at the Hikawa Shrine. It was in the middle of the night because it was the only time they could discreetly gather. She was miffed there was another enemy. She listened as Diana told everyone what she had told her and Artemis. There was a rebel group in the 30th century attacking the palace, Small Lady has stolen the Time Guardians time key to come here, and it's before July 20th. As Diana finished telling her story, she looked at Minako and then at everyone else. "Before anyone asks, no, I cannot tell you who King Endymion is. He will tell you when he is ready."

Uncrossing her arms, she tried her argument again. "If we know who he is, then things will be easier-"

Ami interrupted Minako. "He might be someone our paths are not crossing with. It will be more difficult to explain meeting up if that is the case." Minako slumped her shoulders in defeat, but knew Ami was right.

Rei asked. "What is this thing that's going to happen on July 20th?"

Diana shook her head. "I do not know. The King would not say, but he was quite distressed at the thought of Small Lady coming back to this time."

Luna said. "I slipped inside Usagi's house after they left for their trip because I saw them leave with a pink-haired girl Ikuko referred to as their cousin. I was shocked to see the pictures now have her in them. It seems Small Lady has made herself at home with Usagi and is on the trip with them." She licked her paw. "Diana, can you explain the ball she has with her?"

Diana nodded. "Luna-P. It's a communicator and weapon in one."

Makoto sighed. "I guess we wait until they return? This Black Moon Clan hasn't come to this time period have they?"

Diana shook her head. "I don't know, but Small Lady has only been here for 24 hours."

Ami said. "That is plenty of time for them to realize something is amiss. They'll notice when they no longer see her since she frequently sneaked out of the palace."

Minako said. "Artemis and I will check on Usagi. Makoto and Diana will come with us. Diana, you will return to the 30th century to report to the King with our findings. Ask if there is a way to communicate with him from here so you don't have to travel and put yourself at risk. Makoto, you will be my backup if anything happens."

Rei said. "What about Ami and I?"

Minako said. "Monitor things from here. Diana will come back and let you know what the King says." They transformed and Sailor Venus said. "Alright, let's see what's going on."

Once she thought everyone was asleep, Usagi climbed onto the roof. As she looked around, she was startled to see someone standing on the roof with her. He wasn't there a second ago. Her breathing hitched, as she looked at the familiar silhouette.

When I come for you, come with me.

She blinked, knowing he might not be the man from the dream. That was Tuxedo Kamen, right? This man wasn't him, but as he walked to her, she noticed his eyes seemed to be purple. She tried to recall if his eyes were blue or purple in the dream, but she couldn't. Usagi didn't want to miss a chance to leave, but she didn't want to screw it up. She could still fulfill her duty as a senshi living elsewhere. He held out his hand. "My name is Prince Diamond." Usagi swallowed hard. His voice was like honey. He gave her a sultry smile. "Let's talk somewhere more private. Your family might hear us if they wake up." She nodded and placed her hand in his. He pulled her to him, wrapping his other arm around her waist. She looked up at him and his eyes were definitely purple. He continued smiling and Usagi could only nod.

He teleported to his cabin. She looked around and he said. "Rubeus is keeping an eye on your cabin and will let me know if your family begins moving around."

He gestured to the couch as he sat in the chair next to it. Usagi sat on the couch and asked "Exactly what is going on? What is your name?" With that question, she realized how stupid it was to not transform. How stupid it was to come with him. Of course, he said he only wanted to talk, but in the Silver Millennium, so did Beryl. She didn't have to try contacting anyone, transforming would alert Tuxedo Kamen, but she would have to try getting away in order to transform. She needed to keep her guard up.

He smirked as if reading her mind. "My name is Prince Diamond and I need your help." Usagi listened as he spun a tale. One of lies, betrayal, love, heartbreak, hate, and passion. It took place in the 30th century, where people lived in a utopia with a 1,000-year lifespan. The royals lived in a palace made of crystal, the queen was rarely seen, and their only child has traveled back in time to steal the silver crystal from Sailor Moon. She scrunched her face up at the thought of the King and Queen allowing that brat to run amok. As if he had read her mind, he said. "The child is quite rebellious and it's because of her the Queen is frozen in place and the senshi are struggling to keep the palace protected from intruders. There is someone claiming to be a member of the Black Moon Clan, but she is not. She used to be, but she began attacking the palace. We tried to work together with the King and Queen to catch and punish her, but they wouldn't listen. They wanted to blame and punish the entire group."

Usagi said. "That's terrible. Although, how did the child get her mother and the senshi frozen in place?"

Prince Diamond said. "During an attack, the child ran outside the palace. The Queen chased after her daughter and was hit with an ice attack. The senshi took their frozen Queen inside and since then have kept a protective barrier over the palace. They cannot leave their post or the barrier will fall."

Usagi shook her head in disbelief. "If the senshi are stuck then that means my future self is stuck? How can I be of any help?"

He nodded. "The ex-member of our group is still attacking the palace. I'm hoping you will come with me to the 30th century and help me defeat her. There are so few of us now..." Sighing he said. "There will be a room prepared for you in a place this person cannot get to. My brother has a barrier around our building that only allows current members and those personally invited by a member to pass through. All others cannot even see the building." He stood. "Please think about my offer."

She nodded. "I'll think about it, but we will be stronger if the other senshi fight with us."

He shook his head. "She will be expecting multiple people to attack. We need the wielder of the silver crystal to defeat her. Your fellow senshi will only get gravely injured. I do not wish for that to happen. Please, just think about it. I will come to you… say… on July 20th for an answer."

Usagi stood, not sure if he told the truth. "I'll think about it, but if I decide to go with you, the others will wonder where I've gone."

Prince Diamond said. "Rubeus will cover for you so don't worry about it. Now, I'll take you back to your cabin."

Usagi looked around after they teleported back. She was shocked they were in a tree. Rubeus said. "It's clear."

Prince Diamond nodded. "I'll teleport you to inside the bedroom so you don't have to climb through the window."

She nodded and asked. "What is the name of this rogue member of the Black Moon clan that I'm supposed to help you defeat?" Usagi noticed the confused look that crossed Rubeus' face.

Prince Diamond smirked. "Esmerald." Rubeus did his best to not laugh, but he failed.

She was teleported to her bedroom and Prince Diamond whispered in her ear. "I will see you on July 20th." And just like that, he was gone. Locking the window, she climbed into bed wondering if the Prince had been truthful. Why did Rubeus look confused when she asked about the rogue member of their group? Why did he laugh when her question was answered? Sighing, she had until July 20th to figure out what to do. Pulling the covers over her, she tried to sleep.

Usagi laid in bed on her back and Mamoru was above her. She still couldn't believe she was married to this amazing man. He smiled. "Ready for another round?" She giggled as she nodded. He was still holding himself above her, making a remark about how he liked the view, when suddenly, he clutched his chest, almost collapsing on top of her. "Mamo-chan!?" Usagi cried out. Was he having a heart attack? To her horror, he began aging rapidly, quickly mummifying and decomposing then turning to dust.

"If you love him, you'll stay away."

The dust vanished, leaving no trace of Mamoru. What was almost as horrifying was that the mysterious voice had sounded like her own.
