Disclaimer: Sorry it took so long to write...well anyway....go on...read! What are ya still reading the disclaimer for?? Come on....go to the story! Come on! You can do it!Oh yeah...I don't own anything except Kaylee and Skye... Ok, I'll shut up now...to the fic!! And I still dunno who the pair'll be!!! Trunks/Hotaru...Gohan/Hotaru... ah! what to do!??! So far ... I think from the votes it's more then likely to be Trunks/Hotaru ... but I need more votes ta know for sure... ^^ I love votes...it means more reviews for me ^^

Oh and ,I know that the DBZ characters are the strongest beings in the universe blah blah, and stuff...But, so it's at least a little more equal I'm gonna have all the outers be at there Celestial stage (made up..not in the series). And somewhere in the middle of the fic reach ultimate form (once again made-up). All will be explained later. Oh, and also...if you want to read a Gohan/Hotaru fic...I have one it's Star Crossed Future...yep.
The chapter title just says Race for the Past cause it has a race....and the past thing...so I liked it ^^;

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Haruka paced around her car inspecting it to make sure it was ready to race. She climbed into the car and waited for the announcer to begin the opening speech and announce the racers.

"Now!! Announcing the racers... First off, who you all know and love... Haruka Tenou!!!" Cheers errupted from the crowd, and Haruka smiled a bit, waved and entered her car.

"Tenou's car is a blue Formula F512M, 12 cylinder, maximum horsepower 432 bhp, maximum speed 196 mph!!" More cheers sounded as the announcer announced the rest of the racers and there cars.

Haruka started up the engine and waited for the signal to go... '5......4.....3....2....1...go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!' Haruka shouted in her mind. She drove off first at 70mph gaining speed as she made every turn. Soon enough she was going 194mph, almost her max speed. She had already by now left 6 of 7 in the dust, one was close on her tail. ''Man...what kind of car does that guy use?!?'' She wondered aloud.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
''GO HARUKA-PAPA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Hotaru shouted at the top of her lungs. Trunks and Gohan sweatdropped.

Skye watched smirking a bit. 'Well Haruka...you still love a good competition eh?' she thought to herself.

Kaylee was grinning broadly. "GO HARUKA-SAN!!!!!!!!" She yelled drinking soda at the same time so she ended up wetting Chibi-Trunks and Yamcha.

Chibi-Trunks. "eww!! Yuck!!! Get this stuff off me!!!! Why'd you do that!?!?" He asked looking at Kaylee who hadn't even noticed and was still shouting "GO HARUKA-SAN GO!!!!!!!!!!"

Yamcha wiped the soda of his face. "Dammit who did that!?!??!" He looked around and no one said anything, besides shouting praises to Haruka.

Ami wasn't even watching anymore though. She was reading...again.

Rei was clapping, Usagi and Chibi-Usa were arguing.

Mamoru was saying something about him having a meeting and having to go...no one really cared.

Makoto and Minako were cheering, as was everyone else.

"Gohan...bet you five bucks Haruka's gonna win..."

"No man...just watch...the guy behind her is gonna win... You're on!"
~*~~~~~~
Haruka smirked and sped up going the maximum speed crossing the finish line first. The announcer guy announced the winners, and 2nd place so on.

Haruka climbed out of her car taking off her helmet and wiping her forehead. "Hey! You're pretty good!"

"...Not good enough apparently...my name is Mitsukaki, nice to meet you Ms. Tenou, I must be going now" He said getting back in his car and driving off.

Haruka watched him drive off. She shrugged and went to get her trophy.
~*~~*
"You owe me five bucks..." Trunks said grinning.

Gohan sweatdropped. "er...hehe.... um..yea ...er hehehe...I will .... uh later....hehe... hey!! isn't that Jennifer Smithy!?!?!" (made up name...I think...)

"Where!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!" Trunks looked around eagerly as Gohan burst out of his seat going to say congrats to Haruka with Hotaru.
~~~~~
"Haruka-papa!! You did GREAT!" Hotaru exclaimed smiling broadly.

"Good job Haruka!! I knew you'd win!! Trunks was saying that other guy was gonna win, but, tch. I knew better!" Gohan said smiling.

Trunks ran up. "Man, Jennifer Smithy wasn't there liar!! Oh yeah, great job Haruka! I bet five bucks that you'd win, but he said the guy'd win. You know, you're pretty fast for a girl! ...I mean, no offense to girls, but .. .ah never mind! Ya did great!!!"

**Later on, after Trunks had punished Gohan for lying to Haruka..hehe...**

Gohan looked at Trunk threateningly "I didn't do it to get to Hotaru man!!" Gohan now has a black eye...

"hah, sure!!" Trunks responded dryly

"Just so all of you know.... none of you are gonna 'get' Hotaru!!!" Haruka cut in growling

Trunks and Gohan sweatdropped

"..um...Haruka? Should we tell them (them = the readers...hehe) about the past now?" Sklye asked changing the subject

"...fine...but you better not change anything!" Haruka grumbled
**^**^**^**~**
-At the Outer Mansion-

Skye started explaining first "Well, you see, we existed a during the Silver Millenium"

"Yup!" Kaylee grinned.

Skye continued. "I'm Haruka's half sister...and we were always always always competeing to see who was best. Well we would always tie, until one day I was about to wi--"

"tch..yeah right. You could never beat me if your life depended on it!" HAruka countered

"That's not true!! I was always easy on you because you were younger." Shouted Skye

"But I'm older now!" Haruka replied pointing out the obvious

Skye thought for a moment "So!?"

Ami cut them off "Please... stop fighting and continue with the story!"

Skye apologized and continued. "Right..sorry to act so immature... well, one day I was about to win" She glanced at Haruka "well, I was about to win, when my communicater went off...well it turns out the Moon Kingdom was under attack..."

"You're skipping a lot of stuff!!!" Kaylee pointed out

"... ...you tell your stuff, I'll tell mine, k?" Skye replied

Kaylee grumbled crude remarks, and pouted a bit.

"So, I was summoned to protect the Moon as best I could--" Skye tried to remain calm as she was interrupted again.

"Hey, if you were there, why don't we remember you!?" Makoto said becoming suspicious

"Yeah!" Minako agreed standing up

Skye sighed "Because..." She was cut off again.

"Because we were erased from the inner's memory...bakas..it doesn't take Einstein to figure that out!" Kaylee responded.

"Well, anyway back to the story. So, I told Haruka we would have a rematch later after I saved the moon... of course she agreed since she had to stay and gaurd the planet, and to keep other evil forces from getting passed. Well, I didn't save the moon, since I blacked out during the battle, and when I woke up I was on a destroyed Moon Kingdom. I didn't have enough strength to travel back to the planet Uranus... so I wouldn't have my rematch *laughs* well...so the only thing I could do was wait for someone to come help me..." Skye finished glad there were no more interruptions.

" That's where I'll start my story!" Kaylee laughed happily glad to get her turn "well, I'm the younger princess of the gates of time, Setsuna was my cousin, but I didn't live on Pluto, and I was too young to help Setsuna gaurd the gates of time...so I was sent to be a castle gaurd to Hotaru-hime! heheh! Well, we became best friends, we shared all our secrets!! Even which castle gaurds were cute!!" Kaylee grinned. "Well, Me and Hotaru were in the gardens when I was summoned to fight for the Moon Kingdom, blah, blah, blah you know the drill, I fought, I lost, then I was walking around the empty broken down castle, I wasn't reborn..." Kaylee added a sniffle here for sympathy. "I was about to return to Saturn but thought Hotaru was probably reborn, so I decided to go to the Time Gates, but then I noticed a body, which I thought to be dead, and who was it? Skye!"

Skye nodded. "Yup, she saved my life, she brought me to the Time Gates with her, and soon I was back to full health, and we were sent to earth, and were reborn"

Usagi "...so Haruka has a half-sister...Setsuna has a cousin..and... HOTARU HAD GUARDS!??! and and and crushes on boys!??"

Chibi-Usa added "But Hotaru is MY best friend!!! MINE!!"

At this point Kaylee had, had it with the pink little spore. "Well this was before you were even born!!! And you are way too short for your age!!!! Are you anorexic or something!?? I mean I could kick you across the room easily!!! And you are waaaayyyy too selfish and bratty!!! And I AM Hotaru's best friend!!" Kaylee finished. "Setsuna..would this terribly alter the fate of the world if I killed her now?"

Setsuna was emotionally agreeing with Kaylee to kill her. "Yes it would, I'm terribly...terribly sorry you can't ... right now" She added with a smirk.

Kaylee grinned. "K..." 'I have a really cool cousin! ...' she thought to herself smiling wider (if that was possible...) "So, see Hotaru, I did know you! And you forgot about me!" Kaylee sniffled a bit, and Hotaru apoligized to her, and gave her a small hug.

Kaylee grinned widely and looked over Hotaru's shoulder to see a glaring Chibi-Usa, so Kaylee did the only right thing to do...smirk...and stick her tongue out.
