Sailor Pluto

Setsuna Meiou had never really had much of a life until recently. She had always stood guard at the tower of time, all alone. Sometimes she wished that she had never been given the responsibility of guarding time. However since the Queen had instructed her to leave and be a normal teen it had been rather difficult. She had lots of friends, but she had trouble interacting with other girls and boys her age. She missed Small Lady very much, over the years they had become like family. All of the Senshi were her family. She sighed as she looked around her room. She had always dreamed of having such wonderful friends as she had now. And since she was not presently guarding the Time Space Door, she was relieved that she did not know what the future had in store for her and her friends. She turned back to her painting of the gardens she had had at her home on earth for the short time she had been there. As she looked at it a black fog jumped out of it and she fell back against her desk's side. She felt the darkness overtake her body and she fell into what seemed like a sleep.

"Sailor Pluto! Help me!" a voice called out through the darkness.

"Small Lady? Is that you?" she called out.

"No! It's not!" a woman said as she stepped into Setsuna's view.

"Black Lady! NO! Small Lady!" she cried out.

"You let me down…it's your fault that I was turned into this. And now you will pay for that mistake!" she said.

"No! I didn't! I had no choice…I'm so sorry…" she stated.

"Sorry doesn't cut it!" she said as she hit Setsuna with a dark energy beam that blasted her back and she hit a wall.

"Forgive me Small Lady…" she whispered, "PLUTO PLANET POWER!" she yelled.

"I don't care if you transform…it won't help you any!" she said.

"Small Lady…I know you're in there…"

"That's not me!" another voice called out.

"Small Lady?" she asked. Chibimoon walked into view with Sailor Moon standing behind her.

"If that was me, I wouldn't be here would I?" she asked. Sailor Moon stayed silent.

"But…"

"In this world any thing is possible," Black Lady stated as she blasted Chibimoon and she vanished.

"NO! SMALL LADY!" she screamed. Sailor Moon still remained silent.

"Pluto…you have not done your job…and you have let down my daughter," yet another voice said. Pluto clutched her head in pain.

"No…this isn't right…" she said. Figures of the other senshi stood in front of her.

"You're a failure…" Neptune said.

"But I…" she started.

"You killed Small Lady…" Mars said.

"No I didn't…"

"You should have just stayed at the Tower of Time," Saturn said.

"We shouldn't have trusted you," Venus said.

"You're a traitor," Mercury said.

"I don't know why the princess trusts you…" Uranus said.

"Pluto…" Sailor Moon started to talk. The other senshi disappeared from Setsuna's view.

"Are you going to accuse me too?" Pluto asked.

"No…I'm here to help you. You know this isn't the truth. Your friends would never treat you like this. This is not Small Lady!" she said pointing at Black Lady, "and the Chibimoon you saw wasn't the real one either. The darkness knows what we care about, what can cause us to weaken our guard, it knows our fears…" she said.

"The darkness? Of course," she said as she stood up, "I understand now…I have to defeat her," she said looking at Black Lady.

"HA! Not going to happen!" she said.

"DEAD SCREAM!" she said her attack at Black Lady who dodged it.

"CHRONOS CYCLONE!" she yelled and Black Lady disappeared. Pluto felt Sailor Moon's hand rest on her shoulder.

"I trust you with my very life…don't ever doubt that," she said. Pluto smiled.

"I know…" she said as she sank to the floor.
