*shakes head* I don't think so! And that goes for Sailor Moon and
Dragon Ball Z also! *pouts* And any other japanese animation that
may show up in the upcoming series.
Author's Notes:
Forgive me if I get the DBZ stuff mixed up a bit, I haven't seen
or read about what happened after the Buu showed up and started fighting
with Vegeta. . Gomen nasai. So I'll be making up some stuff
about that.
*stares at the reviews* *blink* *blink*
*saddened* *sniff* No one likes it? *watery eyes* Wahh!!! ;_;
So small...minute...I feel unloved!! Wahh!! Okay, better shut up now
before I make it worse. Here's the next chapter. Just because I'm
not busy at the moment. *stares at the pile of projects next to her*
^^;;;; Okay, I am but...I'm too much of a procastinator to do this
stuff. Heheh.... *jumps and runs away as mom and dad hears that*
Eeps! *zooms off*
*blergh* Yeah, yeah, I'm posting this chapter differently for this.
Something's happening to this darn site. Won't let me post up some
chosen chapters or something but lets other chapters get posted. Kinda
weird, if ya ask me. @_@
************
It's been awhile now since the last meeting over at Bulma's about the
eerie occurance that has showed up in their world. The moon was back,
certainly and the nature seemed to be more alive than usual. Other than
that, nothing new has come to terms. And because of this, the Z team
fell back to going around with their normal routines in life. But
none of them has truly let the strangeness pass off as nothing. Because
nothing around there ends up as nothing, there's always something going on.
Time has seemed to fly by as the days have gone by. Buu, the big pink
and fluffy pillow look-alike, was now extinct and Goku was back in the
afterlife with King Kai and them. Vegeta was recently revived with the
Dragon Balls thanks to the team and Gohan returned to high school. As for
the others, well they returned to their normal stuff also. Krillin and
18 were now millionaires thanks to 18's thinking of suggesting to Hercule
to bribe her with twice as much of the winning prize money. Also Chi Chi
went on having her son and Trunks study, with her and Bulma's eyes watching
them. Piccolo ended up going back up with Dende and Mr. Popo to their
home to concentrate more and well...that's pretty much it with them.
~.~Meanwhile~.~
Amongst them all, the Supreme Kai watched. Still wondering about how
this group of people could be so strong. Especially the Saiyan race. He
was quite astonished to find out about their strength, it was remarkable!
But then again, he shouldn't be thinking about that at the moment. His
eyes swiveled around and turned to the moon. It wouldn't be long now
till the time came.
"In just a few hours, the moon will rise above the clouds and
show the world that it's full. Then she will awaken,"the Supreme Kai
murmered.
His eyes narrowed as a new thought popped up but then he shook his head.
(They'll come and then we can discuss it from there...yes, let's just
concentrate on the situation at hand.)Supreme Kai figured and then stood
up straight.
He closed his eyes and then his body disappeared from the area, reappearing
in front of a tall mansion.
(Always have had a certain interest in large buildings.)smirked the Supreme
Kai and began to walk up the tall steps leading to the doorway.
He opened the door and walked on in. Tiles filled the ground with pillars
at the sides and a long red carpet at the center. The Supreme Kai's feet
made no noise as he strolled on over to his destination.
"Sup..Supreme Kai! How are you?"the Grand Kai greeted, his eyes slightly
wide from shock at seeing such a high being entering his home.
"Just fine, Grand Kai. I'm here to ask something of you,"Supreme Kai
told him.
"Anything, Supreme Kai. Anything,"the Grand Kai bowed his head solemnly.
"I want you to bring Goku back to life. Just for a year, will you do
that?"the Supreme Kai requested.
"Of course! But if I may..."the Grand Kai began.
"What is it?"the Supreme Kai urged him to go on.
"Why do you want Goku to return for the year?"the Grand Kai questioned.
"To help out with something,"the Supreme Kai smirked and then turned
around to walk away.
"I want him back tonight before the moon is completely full. Have him appear
at Dende's place, will you do that?"Supreme Kai requested as he completely
left the building.
"Tonight, Dende's place,"Grand Kai repeated under his breath and then
walked off from the room as well.
By the time Supreme Kai returned to his station, the sun was starting to set
so he began his journey to the moon.
His eyes wandered around the deserted land and his eyes caught sight of something
glowing. The Supreme Kai strolled over there with caution and stopped
fifty feet away from the place and decided to wait.
"It has begun,"the Supreme Kai announced.
"Hey! Goku!"Grand Kai shouted as he flew over to him and King Kai.
"Grand Kai!"King Kai yelled out and bowed in front of him while pushing
Goku to bend down as well.
"I want you to return to Earth, for a year,"Grand Kai informed the Saiyan.
"What?"Goku was taken aback by this piece of information.
"You'll be going back to Earth for a year. You need to get going
now,"Grand Kai told him.
"What? Now?!?"Goku shouted out.
"Hush Goku!"King Kai sternly nagged at him.
"Yes, now,"Grand Kai nodded and then Goku began to disappear away from
that dimension to return to his home.
As Goku materialized, he blinked his black onyx eyes open and observed
his surroundings.
"G-Goku?"Dende's voice stuttered toward him.
"Oh hey guys!"Goku's cheerful voice acknowledged the two Nameks and
Mr. Popo.
"Oh my..."Mr. Popo was a bit shocked at seeing the Saiyan once more just
appear out of thin air without a dragonball to summon him.
"I'm back!"grinned Goku.
"H-how?"Dende murmered out.
"The Grand Kai said I could, so here I am!"Goku managed to say.
Before another word could be spoken, the sun has now begun to set
and the moon began to rise up over the horizon. Everything hushed around
them, the flowers nearby seemed to sway even though there was hardly a
breeze up above and the wind dwindled around. Lazily flying by
to ruffle here and there. An odd unsettlement started to come over their
senses and they all turned towards the sky to stare at the now star-filled
sky begin to take shape.
"Something is coming,"Dende whispered out to them all.
Over at Earth, the other members of the Z gang gazed up at the sky as well
towards the moon. So many things were different right now, it was
weird; almost eerie even. The animals around them perked up their ears and
made several distinct animal sounds toward the heavens, as if calling or praying
towards it.
"It's back, that feeling,"Krillin informed his friends.
"And stronger than ever,"Gohan narrowed his eyes.
"We should get going to Dende's place, shouldn't we?"18 told them.
"Yes, let's go,"nodded Krillin and took off at the same time as
all of them.
****************
Back to the Moon
****************
There was no wind on the moon. No sound, not even oxygen. Without these
variables, there shouldn't be a shifting piece of pebble except from what
that lone foreigner who came to that piece of land right now but he didn't
stir as he carefully observed the glowing area on the terrain. It was
brightly illuminating that region of pure whiteness. Besides the odd coloring,
the pieces of debris were swirling around the location thus making a small
whirlwind in the process.
The Supreme Kai took in a deep breath and waited for what was to come.
(Now we shall see.)Supreme Kai told himself.
The object began to pulse: once, twice, three times, etc. At every pause
the flashes of light only grew brighter and started to shimmer a slight
yellow pigment that accumulated as time went by.
A dimunitive amount of space now formed itself on the moon of a mixed
yellow and white color. And now the pulsing stopped and just stood idle
there for a certain amount of time. Time passed by and a tinge of pinkness
has showed at the center of that terrain.
(Could this be it?)Supreme Kai asked himself when a strong gust of wind
blew by, making him cover his eyes as debris picked up.
Golden blond hair followed by a head, body, and then the feet rose up
from the ground. A young woman of the age of sixteen stood at the center
of that illumination. Her face wasn't showing because of the long mane
of odango-shaped hair covering it from his view. The woman's
head was bowed down, her arms crossed over her chest and dressed in a
long white gown that would belong to royalty.
(Friend or foe is the only question left.)the lavender skinned Supreme
Kai said to himself as he braced for the impact that might occur.
As the light died down, the woman tilted her head up and now stared at a
hovering piece of jewelry in front of her. Her eyes were the color
of crystalline blue blazing with ultimate sadness, lost, and sorrow.
Her slim hands stretched out towards the crystal gem but didn't
wrap itself around it when the object came towards her.
"You, you brought me back..."her voice appeared to sound betrayed
by the apparatus and it shimmered slightly of white in answer.
"It was you that brought me here. Your own wish, was it not? The
wish of the power of Light? Yes, the power of Light. That's what
Angelic told me...from the Power of the Light and life will be
reborn to ...to...*bows head and a slight trickle of tear
fell from her creamy, white skin*..to the immortal princess of
Light,"the princess of Light recalled.
The instrument began to hover and swirled around her, blinking white
to silver, to pink and back again in hopes to cheer her up. Seeing
its determined self, the Princess of Light smiled a little from its
antics.
(Here goes nothing.)Supreme Kai took in a deep breath.
"Excuse me,"the Supreme Kai called out towards the young woman.
The Princess of Light swirved her head around to face the owner of
the voice and came to notice a lavender skinned, white/grayish hair
alien of some race. This shocked her and gave an intake of breath,
her eyes slightly widening and clutching the gem tightly with her fists.
"I didn't mean to surprise you,...princess but I came here to
greet you,"the Supreme Kai tried to calm her down.
His soothing voice appeared to have quelled the startled princess for
the time being as she brought her hands down to her sides and took
a step forward.
"I am known as the Supreme Kai to this side of the galaxy. Guardian
of the galaxy. You are a newcomer, are you not?"the Supreme Kai
introduced himself, slightly bowing.
"How long have you been here, Supreme Kai? On the moon? How
much have you seen?"the princess wondered.
"For some time. Your...device activated you to come back to
life, I've heard that much of what is important. And I've sensed
something coming from the moon and went to check it out.
I see that it was you that has caused the disturbance on
the planet Earth,"the Supreme Kai informed her, with a slight smirk.
"I'm sorry if what has happened has effected a displacement on the
originality of the planet,"the princess's eyes showed forgiveness
within its depth.
"That's okay, it will return back to normal soon enough. What I
want to know is, are you friend or foe?"Supreme Kai asked her.
"I work on the side of good, if that's what you're asking
Supreme Kai,"the princess smiled at him.
"Good, good. Maybe we should continue this talk later on.
The Z fighters on Earth are probably wondering what's happening
right about now. When you started to awaken, a lot of events have taken
place your ki is quite different from any range of normality,"the
Supreme Kai told her.
"Z fighters?"the princess cocked her head to the side.
"Yes, they are mankind's defensive forces. That group has
saved Earth several of times in the past,"the Supreme Kai told her.
The Princess of Light didn't ask anything else for the time being as
the Supreme Kai strolled over to her and offered her his hand to
hold on to.
"Let's go to Earth,"the Supreme Kai said.
Nodding her head, she took out her free hand and clasped his wrist.
She felt a slight breeze and small queasiness for a brief moment.
When it stopped she stared around in awe at seeing a blue sky
and a type of temple or building on the center of a round terrain.
There were several fighters right now gathered around and gawking at
the two of them, but mostly at her.
"Supreme Kai!"Goku's voice was the first to speak out.
"Z fighters,"Supreme Kai nodded towards them in greeting.
"Th-That girl. She-She's the one, isn't she? The one that contains
this weird ki,"Goten stammered.
"Yes, I am,"the Princess of Light nodded in answer to the small
boy.
(He's so innocent looking. And so young...)the Princess thought to herself.
At her response to the awaiting question, all of the Z fighters got
into a fighting stance..glaring at her in suspicion.
"She's okay, she's not evil,"Supreme Kai told them and they all
slightly relaxed or completely relaxed.
"That's good, we don't need any more enemies around here,"Krillin
stated with a grin on his face.
"They're the Z fighters?"the Princess of Light kindly asked towards
the Supreme Kai.
"They are,"Supreme Kai nodded in response and pointed out his finger
towards each one as he spoke their name.
"That one is Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Gohan, Goten, Trunks, Krillin, 18,
Dende, and Mr. Popo,"Supreme Kai introduced them.
"The others didn't come because well Bulma and Chi Chi...they're safer
at home and Yamcha doesn't fight. Korin doesn't either, he's just a
cat. Par and Oolong..well they're not all that helful either.
Yajorobi, well, none of us has seen him lately except for certain
occassions,"Goku told her.
"You'll seem them later,"Goten added with a grand smile that made her
smile in response.
"What is your name anyways?"Trunks blurted out in askance.
"My name?"the Princess of Light murmered and her eyes saddened for a short
time.
"She's the Princess of Light,"Supreme Kai told them.
"Yes, I am...but my common name is.."started the princess.
(I'm known by several. Which one should I use? Serena or Usagi? Or
maybe even Serenity? I need to make up one..)the princess
contemplated for awhile.
"My name is....Serena. That is my name, Serena,"the princess finally
made up her mind and told them.
"Well, then...welcome to Earth Serena,"Goku greeted.
Just before anyone else could ask a question something popped up in the
sky and a type of vehicle descended towards the tiles of the
terrain. A lavender haired young man stood up and stared at all of them.
This stranger strangely resembled the one named Trunks. The only
difference is that this man was older than Trunks, by a great number of
years. His intimidating dark purple almost black eyes and lavender
mushroom hair-style and wearing a CC blue jacket with a black short
sleeved top and blue jeans.
The foreigner jumped up from his vehicle and hovered in the air for
awhile, his eyes trained on her then he landed right beside the one
called Vegeta.
"Trunks, you're back!"Goku gasped outloud.
"Trunks? But..."Trunks began.
"He's Trunks from the future,"explained Gohan to the confused visitors
and kids.
"The future?"Serena narrowed her eyes.
*Small glimpse of the Past*
Pluto on her station at the Time Gates.
Holding the Time Staff and keeping her maroon eyes trained for any signs
of intruders and those not worthy of travelling time.
Setsuna as herself and a mysterious smile on her face
*End Glimpse*
(Setsuna...)Serena's eyes flashed sadness.
"How?"Serena added absently.
"That machine over there is what got him here,"pointed Goku.
Her eyes swiveled over to the contraption momentarily before fixing
her eyes on the future Trunks.
"Call me Mirai Trunks so you guys don't get too confused,"Mirai Trunks
suggested in which they've accepted.
"What are you doing here, Mirai?"asked Gohan.
"...to visit, of course!"Mirai Trunks gave out, sneaking a glimpse at
Serena that only Vegeta and Piccolo noticed.
"You can fly and travel time,"Serena softly pointed out.
"It's not that shocking, is it?"Dende asked her.
(I'm not in my world anymore, am I? Is this another time? Or
something else? No, I can't be in my world. If it's somewhere
in the future or the past, there should be a guardian over the
Time Stream! But if this, this Trunks can get through..then no one
is guarding and a person is always guarding or sense it at least!
What's going on? Where am I? ...that's it! I'm in another
dimension!)Serena figured out, her head bowed and then snapped back
up her eyes intense.
"This place, it's not where I belong,"Serena's voice was calm yet
harsh.
"Where do you belong?"Goten asked her.
"Is it heaven? You're an angel aren't you?"Goten added.
"An angel, me?"Serena couldn't help but smile at the small child.
(So innocent...sweeter than even Reenie and especially Sammy Shingo.)Serena
told herself.
"Aren't you one?"Goten pressed.
"I'm afraid not,"Serena shook her head.
"Then how come you're in a pretty dress and came from the
new Moon?"Goten asked her.
"That's where I appeared,"Serena softly replied.
"And...I'm a princess of the Moon,"Serena added and closed her eyes, willing
the dress away to be replaced by white butterfly T-shirt and loose but
fitting blue pants.
"You're the Princess of Light though,"Supreme Kai pointed out, trying to
sort out this new information.
"There's no life on the Moon, how could you be?"Piccolo joined in
the conversation.
"I am known by a lot of names, Supreme Kai. Several...and there is no
life on the Moon now. And what do you mean by the new Moon?"wondered Serena.
"Okay, this could take awhile,"sighed Trunks from the oncoming questions.
"Yup,"agreed Goten and the others.
"First off, there was no Moon before you started to appear and come here
to this place. You see in the past, the moon was destroyed again and again
for the safety of mankind. The reason was because of the Saiyans, a superior
race with unlimited amount of power that can only get stronger. You see
with a tail, they can be deadly once a full moon is out. If they look at
it, they can turn into beasts..or a giant monkey and rampage about destroying
humans and buildings alike,"explained Supreme Kai to her question.
"I see..."Serena nodded her head in understanding.
"We're sorry if.."began Gohan.
"No need for apologies, in this world there were probably no inhabitants
of my long forgotten kingdom,"Serena waved her hand.
"Explain your side of these questions,"18 demanded, her arms folded and her
usual blond hairstyle in place.
"Let's see...from what's going on and the time travelling from a future,
there's a common explanation even if it is a bit extreme. But from what
I've heard so far, weird things happen occasionally here, am I right?"Serena
began.
There were several nods of heads or just no answer to what she said to them
all.
"Okay, well I believe I'm in another dimension,"Serena told them.
"You're dead?"Goku cocked his head to the side, staring at her.
"Not dead, at least...not anymore even though..never mind. All that matters
right now is that I'm not dead but I am from another dimension,"Serena told
them.
"So there is another Earth out there.."sighed Krillin, wondering what it
is like.
"Yes, there is. In that world it's also called Earth but with some
differences. For one, we have places called colonies out in outerspace and
huge gigantic robots running amock to protect the citizens on Earth and
space. We didn't know how to fly by just ourselves, we had to use
shuttles, planes, etc. And we certainly don't have a time travelling
vehicle,"Serena told them.
(Can't mention those other details...)Serena told herself.
"But you have powers, don't you? I mean you changed your clothes
just by closing your eyes and you were able to go out there in space without
oxygen!"Goten blurted out.
"No, not everyone has powers over there. Only a selected few. It's
just something I keep secret from commoners or else they'll freak out.
I don't even use it that much. I was able to have this type of
power just awhile ago,"Serena explained.
"How did you get here, do you know?"Dende asked her.
"I'm not sure..."Serena's voice sounded distant.
"When I found her, the gem that she carries brought her to this
place on the moon. She said something about it bringing her here.
And mentioning someone named Angelic,"Supreme Kai told them all.
"You don't know anything else Supreme Kai?"Mr. Popo asked.
He shook his head in answer.
"Angelic? You heard that?"Serena turned her head towards him.
"Yes, I did,"Supreme Kai nodded his head.
"Hm..."Serena narrowed her eyes, deep in thought.
"Why don't you tell us about yourself? We can help you,"Goku offered
to help out.
"I don't think you can.."Serena was doubtful.
"The Dragon Balls!"Krillin suddenly shouted outloud.
"Dragon balls?"Serena was filled with confusion from this.
"The Dragon balls can grant wishes, you can wish yourself back
home!"Krillin told her.
"Home..."Serena's voice was a little hollow.
"Krillin, the Dragon Balls won't be around until the following
year! We already used it a little while ago,"reminded Piccolo.
"Oh yeah,"Krillin sighed.
"A year is good enough. Isn't it, Serena?"Supreme Kai said.
"I-I guess so,"Serena's voice was a bit soft and right now she
appeared frail and fragile to the Z fighter's eyes.
"Alright then, a year it is!"Krillin cheered out.
(A year. A year in this dimension. A place full of strangers
that I know almost nothing about. I miss you guys. Hotaru, Duo,
Setsuna, Heero...but I also miss the afterlife. With Endymion and
Diamond and the other scouts. I never even got to say good-bye to
the girls..*sigh*)Serena said within her head.
"Where is she staying though?"Dende spoke up.
"With us,"a voice spoke up and all heads towards there.
Her head perked up and turned towards the source of the voice
as well.
To be continued...
******************
There goes that chapter. And yes, I'm very well aware that the Gundam
Pilots have not shown up and only DBZ people here. And yet! It's a
GW/SM Crossover. Well it is a three way still unless there are more votes
for more or just this. I'll be working my way up the line to where she
can return back to the GW dimension. But it'll be some processing to do,
please be patient till then! ^^
Hey, what do you think of an added X-over? FF8? The Slayers world?
*giggles* That'd be funny, going over to the Slayers or FF8. =)

"What? Now?!?"Goku shouted out.
"Hush Goku!"King Kai sternly nagged at him.
"Yes, now,"Grand Kai nodded and then Goku began to disappear away from
that dimension to return to his home.
As Goku materialized, he blinked his black onyx eyes open and observed
his surroundings.
"G-Goku?"Dende's voice stuttered toward him.

"The Grand Kai said I could, so here I am!"Goku managed to say.
Before another word could be spoken, the sun has now begun to set

There was no wind on the moon. No sound, not even oxygen. Without these

brightly illuminating that region of pure whiteness. Besides the odd coloring,
the pieces of debris were swirling around the location thus making a small
whirlwind in the process.
The Supreme Kai took in a deep breath and waited for what was to come.
(Now we shall see.)Supreme Kai told himself.
The object began to pulse: once, twice, three times, etc. At every pause
the flashes of light only grew brighter and started to shimmer a slight
yellow pigment that accumulated as time went by.
A dimunitive amount of space now formed itself on the moon of a mixed
yellow and white color. And now the pulsing stopped and just stood idle
there for a certain amount of time. Time passed by and a tinge of pinkness
has showed at the center of that terrain.
(Could this be it?)Supreme Kai asked himself when a strong gust of wind
blew by, making him cover his eyes as debris picked up.
Golden blond hair followed by a head, body, and then the feet rose up
from the ground. A young woman of the age of sixteen stood at the center
of that illumination. Her face wasn't showing because of the long mane
of odango-shaped hair covering it from his view. The woman's
head was bowed down, her arms crossed over her chest and dressed in a
long white gown that would belong to royalty.
(Friend or foe is the only question left.)the lavender skinned Supreme
Kai said to himself as he braced for the impact that might occur.
As the light died down, the woman tilted her head up and now stared at a
hovering piece of jewelry in front of her. Her eyes were the color
of crystalline blue blazing with ultimate sadness, lost, and sorrow.
Her slim hands stretched out towards the crystal gem but didn't
wrap itself around it when the object came towards her.
"You, you brought me back..."her voice appeared to sound betrayed
by the apparatus and it shimmered slightly of white in answer.
"It was you that brought me here. Your own wish, was it not? The
wish of the power of Light? Yes, the power of Light. That's what
Angelic told me...from the Power of the Light and life will be
reborn to ...to...*bows head and a slight trickle of tear
fell from her creamy, white skin*..to the immortal princess of
Light,"the princess of Light recalled.
The instrument began to hover and swirled around her, blinking white
to silver, to pink and back again in hopes to cheer her up. Seeing
its determined self, the Princess of Light smiled a little from its
antics.
(Here goes nothing.)Supreme Kai took in a deep breath.
"Excuse me,"the Supreme Kai called out towards the young woman.
The Princess of Light swirved her head around to face the owner of
the voice and came to notice a lavender skinned, white/grayish hair
alien of some race. This shocked her and gave an intake of breath,
her eyes slightly widening and clutching the gem tightly with her fists.
"I didn't mean to surprise you,...princess but I came here to
greet you,"the Supreme Kai tried to calm her down.
His soothing voice appeared to have quelled the startled princess for
the time being as she brought her hands down to her sides and took
a step forward.
"I am known as the Supreme Kai to this side of the galaxy. Guardian
of the galaxy. You are a newcomer, are you not?"the Supreme Kai
introduced himself, slightly bowing.
"How long have you been here, Supreme Kai? On the moon? How
much have you seen?"the princess wondered.
"For some time. Your...device activated you to come back to
life, I've heard that much of what is important. And I've sensed
something coming from the moon and went to check it out.
I see that it was you that has caused the disturbance on
the planet Earth,"the Supreme Kai informed her, with a slight smirk.
"I'm sorry if what has happened has effected a displacement on the
originality of the planet,"the princess's eyes showed forgiveness
within its depth.
"That's okay, it will return back to normal soon enough. What I
want to know is, are you friend or foe?"Supreme Kai asked her.
"I work on the side of good, if that's what you're asking
Supreme Kai,"the princess smiled at him.
"Good, good. Maybe we should continue this talk later on.
The Z fighters on Earth are probably wondering what's happening
right about now. When you started to awaken, a lot of events have taken
place your ki is quite different from any range of normality,"the
Supreme Kai told her.
"Z fighters?"the princess cocked her head to the side.
"Yes, they are mankind's defensive forces. That group has
saved Earth several of times in the past,"the Supreme Kai told her.
The Princess of Light didn't ask anything else for the time being as
the Supreme Kai strolled over to her and offered her his hand to
hold on to.
"Let's go to Earth,"the Supreme Kai said.
Nodding her head, she took out her free hand and clasped his wrist.
She felt a slight breeze and small queasiness for a brief moment.
When it stopped she stared around in awe at seeing a blue sky
and a type of temple or building on the center of a round terrain.
There were several fighters right now gathered around and gawking at
the two of them, but mostly at her.
"Supreme Kai!"Goku's voice was the first to speak out.
"Z fighters,"Supreme Kai nodded towards them in greeting.
"Th-That girl. She-She's the one, isn't she? The one that contains
this weird ki,"Goten stammered.
"Yes, I am,"the Princess of Light nodded in answer to the small
boy.
(He's so innocent looking. And so young...)the Princess thought to herself.
At her response to the awaiting question, all of the Z fighters got
into a fighting stance..glaring at her in suspicion.
"She's okay, she's not evil,"Supreme Kai told them and they all
slightly relaxed or completely relaxed.
"That's good, we don't need any more enemies around here,"Krillin
stated with a grin on his face.
"They're the Z fighters?"the Princess of Light kindly asked towards
the Supreme Kai.
"They are,"Supreme Kai nodded in response and pointed out his finger
towards each one as he spoke their name.
"That one is Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Gohan, Goten, Trunks, Krillin, 18,
Dende, and Mr. Popo,"Supreme Kai introduced them.
"The others didn't come because well Bulma and Chi Chi...they're safer
at home and Yamcha doesn't fight. Korin doesn't either, he's just a
cat. Par and Oolong..well they're not all that helful either.
Yajorobi, well, none of us has seen him lately except for certain
occassions,"Goku told her.
"You'll seem them later,"Goten added with a grand smile that made her
smile in response.
"What is your name anyways?"Trunks blurted out in askance.
"My name?"the Princess of Light murmered and her eyes saddened for a short
time.
"She's the Princess of Light,"Supreme Kai told them.
"Yes, I am...but my common name is.."started the princess.
(I'm known by several. Which one should I use? Serena or Usagi? Or
maybe even Serenity? I need to make up one..)the princess
contemplated for awhile.
"My name is....Serena. That is my name, Serena,"the princess finally
made up her mind and told them.
"Well, then...welcome to Earth Serena,"Goku greeted.
Just before anyone else could ask a question something popped up in the
sky and a type of vehicle descended towards the tiles of the
terrain. A lavender haired young man stood up and stared at all of them.
This stranger strangely resembled the one named Trunks. The only
difference is that this man was older than Trunks, by a great number of
years. His intimidating dark purple almost black eyes and lavender
mushroom hair-style and wearing a CC blue jacket with a black short
sleeved top and blue jeans.
The foreigner jumped up from his vehicle and hovered in the air for
awhile, his eyes trained on her then he landed right beside the one
called Vegeta.
"Trunks, you're back!"Goku gasped outloud.
"Trunks? But..."Trunks began.
"He's Trunks from the future,"explained Gohan to the confused visitors
and kids.
"The future?"Serena narrowed her eyes.
*Small glimpse of the Past*
Pluto on her station at the Time Gates.
Holding the Time Staff and keeping her maroon eyes trained for any signs
of intruders and those not worthy of travelling time.
Setsuna as herself and a mysterious smile on her face
*End Glimpse*
(Setsuna...)Serena's eyes flashed sadness.
"How?"Serena added absently.
"That machine over there is what got him here,"pointed Goku.
Her eyes swiveled over to the contraption momentarily before fixing
her eyes on the future Trunks.
"Call me Mirai Trunks so you guys don't get too confused,"Mirai Trunks
suggested in which they've accepted.
"What are you doing here, Mirai?"asked Gohan.
"...to visit, of course!"Mirai Trunks gave out, sneaking a glimpse at
Serena that only Vegeta and Piccolo noticed.
"You can fly and travel time,"Serena softly pointed out.
"It's not that shocking, is it?"Dende asked her.
(I'm not in my world anymore, am I? Is this another time? Or
something else? No, I can't be in my world. If it's somewhere
in the future or the past, there should be a guardian over the
Time Stream! But if this, this Trunks can get through..then no one
is guarding and a person is always guarding or sense it at least!
What's going on? Where am I? ...that's it! I'm in another
dimension!)Serena figured out, her head bowed and then snapped back
up her eyes intense.
"This place, it's not where I belong,"Serena's voice was calm yet
harsh.
"Where do you belong?"Goten asked her.
"Is it heaven? You're an angel aren't you?"Goten added.
"An angel, me?"Serena couldn't help but smile at the small child.
(So innocent...sweeter than even Reenie and especially Sammy Shingo.)Serena
told herself.
"Aren't you one?"Goten pressed.
"I'm afraid not,"Serena shook her head.
"Then how come you're in a pretty dress and came from the
new Moon?"Goten asked her.
"That's where I appeared,"Serena softly replied.
"And...I'm a princess of the Moon,"Serena added and closed her eyes, willing
the dress away to be replaced by white butterfly T-shirt and loose but
fitting blue pants.
"You're the Princess of Light though,"Supreme Kai pointed out, trying to
sort out this new information.
"There's no life on the Moon, how could you be?"Piccolo joined in
the conversation.
"I am known by a lot of names, Supreme Kai. Several...and there is no
life on the Moon now. And what do you mean by the new Moon?"wondered Serena.
"Okay, this could take awhile,"sighed Trunks from the oncoming questions.
"Yup,"agreed Goten and the others.
"First off, there was no Moon before you started to appear and come here
to this place. You see in the past, the moon was destroyed again and again
for the safety of mankind. The reason was because of the Saiyans, a superior
race with unlimited amount of power that can only get stronger. You see
with a tail, they can be deadly once a full moon is out. If they look at
it, they can turn into beasts..or a giant monkey and rampage about destroying
humans and buildings alike,"explained Supreme Kai to her question.
"I see..."Serena nodded her head in understanding.
"We're sorry if.."began Gohan.
"No need for apologies, in this world there were probably no inhabitants
of my long forgotten kingdom,"Serena waved her hand.
"Explain your side of these questions,"18 demanded, her arms folded and her
usual blond hairstyle in place.
"Let's see...from what's going on and the time travelling from a future,
there's a common explanation even if it is a bit extreme. But from what
I've heard so far, weird things happen occasionally here, am I right?"Serena
began.
There were several nods of heads or just no answer to what she said to them
all.
"Okay, well I believe I'm in another dimension,"Serena told them.
"You're dead?"Goku cocked his head to the side, staring at her.
"Not dead, at least...not anymore even though..never mind. All that matters
right now is that I'm not dead but I am from another dimension,"Serena told
them.
"So there is another Earth out there.."sighed Krillin, wondering what it
is like.
"Yes, there is. In that world it's also called Earth but with some
differences. For one, we have places called colonies out in outerspace and
huge gigantic robots running amock to protect the citizens on Earth and
space. We didn't know how to fly by just ourselves, we had to use
shuttles, planes, etc. And we certainly don't have a time travelling
vehicle,"Serena told them.
(Can't mention those other details...)Serena told herself.
"But you have powers, don't you? I mean you changed your clothes
just by closing your eyes and you were able to go out there in space without
oxygen!"Goten blurted out.
"No, not everyone has powers over there. Only a selected few. It's
just something I keep secret from commoners or else they'll freak out.
I don't even use it that much. I was able to have this type of
power just awhile ago,"Serena explained.
"How did you get here, do you know?"Dende asked her.
"I'm not sure..."Serena's voice sounded distant.
"When I found her, the gem that she carries brought her to this
place on the moon. She said something about it bringing her here.
And mentioning someone named Angelic,"Supreme Kai told them all.
"You don't know anything else Supreme Kai?"Mr. Popo asked.
He shook his head in answer.
"Angelic? You heard that?"Serena turned her head towards him.
"Yes, I did,"Supreme Kai nodded his head.
"Hm..."Serena narrowed her eyes, deep in thought.
"Why don't you tell us about yourself? We can help you,"Goku offered
to help out.
"I don't think you can.."Serena was doubtful.
"The Dragon Balls!"Krillin suddenly shouted outloud.
"Dragon balls?"Serena was filled with confusion from this.
"The Dragon balls can grant wishes, you can wish yourself back
home!"Krillin told her.
"Home..."Serena's voice was a little hollow.
"Krillin, the Dragon Balls won't be around until the following
year! We already used it a little while ago,"reminded Piccolo.
"Oh yeah,"Krillin sighed.
"A year is good enough. Isn't it, Serena?"Supreme Kai said.
"I-I guess so,"Serena's voice was a bit soft and right now she
appeared frail and fragile to the Z fighter's eyes.
"Alright then, a year it is!"Krillin cheered out.
(A year. A year in this dimension. A place full of strangers
that I know almost nothing about. I miss you guys. Hotaru, Duo,
Setsuna, Heero...but I also miss the afterlife. With Endymion and
Diamond and the other scouts. I never even got to say good-bye to
the girls..*sigh*)Serena said within her head.
"Where is she staying though?"Dende spoke up.
"With us,"a voice spoke up and all heads towards there.
Her head perked up and turned towards the source of the voice
as well.
To be continued...
******************
There goes that chapter. And yes, I'm very well aware that the Gundam
Pilots have not shown up and only DBZ people here. And yet! It's a
GW/SM Crossover. Well it is a three way still unless there are more votes
for more or just this. I'll be working my way up the line to where she
can return back to the GW dimension. But it'll be some processing to do,
please be patient till then! ^^
Hey, what do you think of an added X-over? FF8? The Slayers world?
*giggles* That'd be funny, going over to the Slayers or FF8. =)
