Chapter Three
"So, we find out where the voices came from and see what the crap's going on," Duo surmised as he looked at his fellow Gundam pilots and his girlfriend.
Jennifer, her super brain always in motion, "It was almost like a battle was going on."
Trowa slowly nodded and Quatre added, "Yeah, that's what it felt like to me."
Heero rose up gracefully and said, "Well, lets try to find it."
Somewhere in another Dimension.
Serena was nervous. She looked at the sparkling diamond ring on her finger and up at the large apartment building before her. She twisted her engagement ring on her finger. So much had happened that her head was still in a whirl.
She knew that she wanted to marry Darien, but wasn't sure that now was the right time. She rolled up her sleeves of her sailor school uniform and said to herself, "Okay, Serena, don't chicken out now. Just march right up there and talk to him."
The tiny blonde straitened to her full, meager height and walked into the crystalline building. She trudged up the long flight of stairs, deciding against the elevator, strait up to Darien's apartment. She slipped out of her sneakers and into the slippers that Darien had always kindly provided her whenever she visited him.
She pounded on the door and shouted, "Hey Darien, it's me, Serena!"
Darien opened the door, and her breath caught, as it always did when she saw him. By the Moon, he was beautiful, she thought as she looked into his deep, royal blue eyes. His inky black hair fell softly over his pale, angular features. He smiled at her, naturally lopsided.
He was almost a foot taller than she was, but she didn't mind. He didn't seem imposing, in fact, she appreciated his strong arms and broad shoulders.
He said, "Hey Serena, what's up?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to see you," she answered nervously.
"Are you okay?" he asked her, his tone filled with concern.
She laughed nervously. Nervous, she was really nervous. Then, her communicator started to beep. She dug it out of her jeans' pockets and turned it on to see Sailor Uranus' face.
"Sailor Moon, we need you quick . . . ." Then she screamed as she jumped back from a fierce attack.
Serena looked at Darien. They thought all of their enemies had been defeated, they guessed that they were wrong. Taking her hand, Darien ran out of the apartment.

"The hell," Jennifer grumbled as Heero pulled up to the Sanq kingdom. She looked at Duo with her large, dark green eyes and asked, "What the hell are we doing here?"
Duo answered, "To see if Relena heard what we did."
"Damn," the tiny blonde grumbled as she crossed her arms and sank back into her seat. Duo didn't think bringing Jennifer was the best idea, but Jennifer had insisted on going with them. Duo didn't have a problem with that, and he wanted to see that she would be safe.
But it didn't take a genius to know that Jennifer and Relena didn't get along. Heero knew this as well and had been a witness to one of Jennifer's and Relena's cat fights before. They were really impressive because Jennifer fought nasty while Relena tried to maintain her princess image.
Duo took her hand and kissed her wrist. Maybe lust would get her mind off of Relena. She just glared at him. Maybe not. He gently let her hand go and looked out of the window. The Sanq Kingdom was nice and all that, but Duo really didn't feel comfortable here.
Heero pulled into the driveway of the palace grounds and said, "We're here."
Duo looked at Heero's expressionless features as they climbed out of the car. His face seemed like he didn't care, but his eyes were all lit up, like a normal kid's on Christmas morning. Relena stepped into view and her whole face lit up when she saw Heero.
"If she clings, I'm going to throw up," Jennifer whispered to Duo as she took his hand.
Duo wasn't sure that hand holding with Jennifer was the safest thing when she was about to get into a cat fight. The elfin blonde had a grip like Gundanium when she wanted to. He knew that would be fun at another time, but not right now.
Then he heard the cry: Mercury Bubbles Blast!
Jennifer, Heero, and Relena looked around sharply. Jennifer asked, "Did you hear that?"
Duo nodded and answered, "Yeah, it was some chick yelling Mercury Bubbles Blast, whatever that means."
She shook her head and said, "No, I heard Mars Fireballs Charge."
Heero said, "Venus Love Chain Encircle."
Relena said, "I heard a girl shout Jupiter Thunderclaps Smash."
Duo asked, "So, have you been hearing things like that then?"
Relena nodded and said, "That's why I'm glad that you came."
Jennifer snorted. Duo whispered, "Be nice."
Jennifer grinned wickedly and asked, "I thought you liked it when I was bad."
Duo leaned closer to her and whispered in her ear, "Later, Baby. Later." Heero gave them both a disapproving look. Jennifer sheepishly looked away, a blush tinting her pale skin, and Duo simply grinned.
Heero said, "We don't know what it means."
Relena nodded and replied, "I know. Are the other pilots coming?"
Heero shrugged and answered, "I'm not sure. I think they're looking for Wufei now."
******
"Moon Crisis Power!" Sailor Moon screamed as she used her Chalice to fend off the villain. Queen Beryl was back from the dead somehow, and she wanted to take all the scouts with her to the Underworld.
"Neptune Deep Submerge!" Neptune shouted, the wave of her power crashing up and flying at the hideous Beryl in its usual planet form.
Beryl laughed off both attacks and smiled. She said, "Little Scouts, you cannot defeat me."
"Oh yeah, try this!" Mars shouted as she took one of her fortunes out of her red skirt. Her long raven hair whipped around her in the heated breeze, her eyes glowed a dark plum as she held the fortune to her head. She closed her eyes and concentrated.
"I call upon the power of Mars, FIRE BALLS, CHARGE!" Mars shouted as she flung the fortune at Beryl. It hit her, freezing her momentarily. Mars held a hand up into the air, circling the girl was a ring of fire that she controlled. She looked at Beryl and said, "This is for coming back from the dead, you evil fiend!" The fire rushed at Beryl, but it dissipated around the Dark Queen's form and she laughed.
Her long blood, red hair floated around her and her yellow tinted whites gleamed around her glowing red irises. The Sailors watched her cautiously, wondering what her next move was going to be. Tuxedo Mask took Sailor Moon's hand and wrapped an arm around her.
Beryl spoke, "Just give me Prince Darien, and I'll let you all live."
"No! You can't have him! Darien's my boyfriend," Sailor Moon shouted as she protectively put her hand over his. The couple glared at the evil queen as she laughed.
"Fine, then I'll have to take him by force," Beryl said with a grin.
"Over our dead bodies," Mars and Jupiter shouted at her.
"Jupiter Thunderclaps SMASH!" Jupiter shouted as she let loose the bolt of energy that her power had created. In a flash of silver lightning it crashed around Beryl, but as with the other attacks, it failed.
"Wisdom Spirits DESTROY!" a familiar voice cried out as a blast of energy rushed at Beryl. Sailor Moon turned around to see a Scout dressed in solid white, her long honey brown hair blowing in the breeze. She had a silver staff with a brilliant blue jewel in it. Her bright blue eyes shone with anger.
"Sailor Wisdom!" they all cheered as the sister to Pluto walked up to the battle field. She held her head up high and spun her staff. She glared at Beryl and said, "You messed with the wrong people, Beryl."
All the scouts lined up and held hands.

"This is sort of strange," Quatre told Jennifer as they walked along the Sanq Kingdom gardens.
He watched his small friend nod her blond head. She replied, "I know. Relena's hearing things too. Are we going insane? Gundam Stress Disorder?"
Quatre chuckled at the joke. He told her, "No, this is not going insane."
"Oh, Quatre, I'm sorry," Jennifer said apologetically, reaching out and touching his arm.
He smiled at her and said, "Jennifer, it's okay. It wasn't your fault."
She looked up at the cloudless blue sky. She said, "Sometimes I wonder what would have happened to me if I didn't meet you guys."
"Especially Duo," he teased lightly, gently pushing her.
She pushed him back and replied, "Yeah, especially Duo. No words, Mr. Winner, I don't wanna hear about it."
"You two make such a good couple," Quatre told her, his tone teasing.
She held her hands to her ears and sang, "I'm not listening Quatre."
"How you two hold hands," he teased gently as he leaned closer to her.
"Nope, not listening," she sang out.
"Trowa said he caught you two making out in Duo's Gundam," he added softly.
"No, blaspheme!" she shouted as she started to run, laughing.
******
Jennifer fell to the soft grass laughing. She had lost Quatre a while back. She rolled to her back, making sure that she wasn't lying on her braid because that would be painful. How the hell could Trowa know about Duo and my make-out session in Deathscythe? Jennifer thought to no one in particular.
She looked up at the cloudless sky. It was a brilliant, pale, endless blue. She had to admit, she did like Outer Space, but Earth was a good place to visit every now and then. She was lucky that Duo felt the same way.
SAILOR PLANET POWER!
"The hell," Jennifer cursed as she sat up. She felt a chorus of voices this time. Then she felt a wash of energy, like an explosion, around her. It knocked her flat on her back. Her eyes squeezed shut on reflex as she turned on her stomach.
She raised up and looked around. Six girls and one man were looking at her wide-eyed. She scrambled back a few feet as she watched them.
They were all attractive; she had to admit.
She looked them over, starting with the one closest to her. She had long, raven hair that fell past her waist. She looked at Jennifer with dark purple eyes, a redder color than Duo's violet-blue, true purple. She was dressed in some sort of robe garb. The top was white and the bottom was red.
Jennifer continued her observation. The one beside her had long, pale blond hair that was caught away from her face by a red ribbon. She had eyes the same color of the sky. She was smaller than the girl beside her, but only by a scant few inches.
The next girl was extremely tall, almost as tall as Trowa. She had auburn hair pulled back into a pony tail with a few curls escaping and floating around her face. Her arms and legs were well toned from what Jennifer could tell. She looked at Jennifer with fierce dark green eyes.
The girl beside her was almost owl like. She had wide, wise dark blue eyes and a sweet face. She looked nervous as Jennifer looked at her. She had closely cropped blue hair.
The guy was extremely handsome. He was tall with jet black hair and mysterious dark blue eyes. He was several years older than the girls sitting around him. He was dressed in all black, adding to his mystery. Jennifer smiled slightly at him while he looked confused.
The girl beside him reached out and held his hand. He tightly held it back. She was tiny, around Jennifer's height. Her golden blond hair was caught up into two pig tails with a round bun on top. Huge dark blue eyes looked at her. Jennifer looked away, to the last girl.
The last girl stood up. She had a commanding, regal bearing to her. She had long honey brown hair that blew softly in the wind. Her bright blue eyes shone with intelligence and wisdom. She was slender, but well toned. Jennifer knew that she was with an equal at this moment.
She held out a hand and said, "I am Athene."
Jennifer looked around and shook her hand. She said, "I'm Jennifer Darkfall. So, how the hell did you get here?"
******
Athene looked at the slight, elfin blond girl. Her hair was extremely long, it's golden mass caught back in a braid that went down to her thighs. Her eyes were huge, a dark, intense green. They shone with intelligence and fire. This girl was a warrior from what Athene could tell.
Jennifer Darkfall's language surprised her. Athene blinked as Lita stood up and asked, "Where the hell are we?"
Jennifer answered, "The Sanq Kingdom." She said it like it should be common knowledge.
Then Athene knew. After they had defeated Beryl, she, as a last act, had sent them to another dimension. That was why they had reverted back to their normal forms. Darien looked up at her, he was probably thinking the same thing, and so was Ami and Rei.
"Hey Jennifer! Did you sense that?" a cheerful male voice called out. Jennifer turned to the voice and her whole face lit up. A young man dressed in black ran up to her, a long chestnut braid flapping behind him like a banner. He reached them and smiled. His violet-blue eyes were filled with good humor as he smiled with his wide mobile mouth. He had a gamin manner to him. Athene had a feeling that he was probably very mischievous when he wanted to be. But she could tell that he had a kind heart, filled with much pain, but kind none the less.
He smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Duo Maxwell, and who are you lovely ladies?"
Jennifer scowled and punched him in the arm. He flinched and jumped away, rubbing the soar spot. "What?" he asked. She grimaced and threw her head up in the air, tilting it away from him.
Lita looked at him, her eyes all lit up. Athene smothered a groan. She knew what was coming.
Lita's eyes became dreamy as she said, "He looks just like my old boyfriend. Look at that hair, those eyes, that body. He's such a hottie."
Jennifer walked over to her, her posture battle ready. Athene was about to spring forth and pull them apart. Darien held out his hand to stop her. Jennifer got into Lita's face. The effect was almost comical. The Elf against the Amazon.
"Okay Lita, I think he's already taken," Serena chirped cheerfully.
"Okay, dang, I was just saying that he was good-looking," Lita said bashfully as Jennifer backed down and stood next to Duo.
Athene pointed to Mina and said, "This is Mina.
Mina smiled prettily as she said, "Hi."
"Luna, what's going on here?" Artemis' voice asked from beneath Rei's robes. Artemis and Luna emerged from behind Rei.
Mina picked Artemis up and said, "I was wondering where you ran off to, Artemis."
"We defeated Beryl and are apparently in another dimension," Luna said.
Jennifer and Duo looked at each other. They said, in unison, "A talking cat."
Jennifer said, "I don't believe it."
Duo said, "That's just a bit too wacked out for me." Athene smiled at that. Duo had a good sense of humor from what she could tell.
Luna said, "Hello, my name is Luna, and we have apparently stumbled onto this dimension by accident."
Jennifer asked, "Another dimension? Like Sliders or something?"
Duo asked, "And who's this Beryl person you keep talking about?"
Luna answered, "From where we are from Beryl is a horrible villain from the Negaverse. We destroyed her, but somehow ended up here."
Darien said, "As a last resort and to get revenge as she was dying, she sent us here." He held out his hand and said, "I'm Darien."
Jennifer then Duo shook it. The couple said, "Hi."
Jennifer asked, "Should we get the other pilots?"
Duo slowly nodded as he looked around the group. Serena stood up and clumsily fell into Jennifer. Jennifer caught the girl and set her back on her feet with a dark look. Serena chirped, "Sorry about that, I'm Serena."
"Hi," Jennifer said icily.
Duo looked around and asked, "Hey, Babe, will you be okay while I get the guys?"
Jennifer nodded. Duo gave her a quick kiss on the cheek before running off. They watched him go. Athene asked, "Who's he talking about?"
Jennifer shrugged and answered, "Some friends of ours."
"I'm Rei," Rei said with her hand out stretched. Jennifer shook it firmly.
Jennifer said, "Hi, nice to meet you."
"Lita," Lita said with a grin.
Jennifer smirked as she said, "The girl who was looking at my boyfriend."
"Could you blame me?" Lita asked.
Jennifer laughed and answered, "No, I couldn't. Wait till you meet the other guys though."
"Are they cute?" Mina asked.
Jennifer smirked and answered, "Cute ain't he word for it. Handsome would be a better term. Except for Wufei. But let's not get into that right now."
Athene smiled, she liked the girl. Jennifer leaned up at the Luna and said, "A talking cat, weird."
Luna stiffened and said, "Well, you seem strange to me as well."
Jennifer raised an eyebrow as she studied the cat with curiosity. She said, "A scientific impossibility. Funky."
"Would you stop looking at my cat and tell us where we're at?" Serena asked as she scooped Luna up into her arms.
"Serena, she's just curious," Darien told her, placing a hand on her shoulder.
Lita asked, "Where is this place?"
Jennifer looked them over, from Serena, Ami, Lita, and Mina's uniforms, to Rei's robes, to Darien's all black wardrobe, to Athene's white T-shirt and jeans. She said, "The Sanq Kingdom. What year is it?"
"2001," Serena answered.
Jennifer stepped back, a thoughtful look on her face. Athene watched the girl. She crossed her arms, her expression thoughtful.
******
Quatre followed along Duo, Heero, and Trowa. No one had bothered telling Relena about this yet. Quatre was surprised that Duo had left Jennifer alone with some strangers that they didn't know. They walked up the grassy bluff and Quatre froze.
There was the most beautiful girl that he had ever seen. She had long honey brown hair that was slightly cut in layers that blew around her beautiful face. She was his height, slender but very toned. She looked at him with intelligent, bright blue eyes.
"Hey Jennifer, what's going on!" Duo shouted as he ran to her.
Jennifer answered, "You're not gonna believe me, but they're from another dimension."
A tall girl with a reddish pony tail looked at Trowa and Heero adoringly. She said, "Oh, they remind me of my old boyfriend. That hair, those eyes."
Trowa blinked and Heero scowled. As usual. Other than that, the two pilots showed no reaction to the girl's outburst.
Jennifer said, "Okay, that's Rei." She pointed at a pretty girl dressed in temple robes with black hair.
"That's Ami." A sweet-faced girl with short blue hair and dark blue eyes.
"That's Lita." That was the girl with the pony tail that had gushed over Heero and Trowa.
"Darien." He was tall, dressed all in black and several years older than the Gundam pilots. He had jet black hair and dark blue eyes.
"Hello," Darien said.
"Hi, my name's Quatre Raberba Winner. This is Heero Yuy and Trowa Barton," Quatre said, knowing that Jennifer would skip the pilots' introductions. Trowa and Heero simply nodded.
"That's Mina." She was a girl with long, pale blond hair tied back with a red bow and sky blue eyes.
"Serena." Serena smiled at them. She had two blond pig tails with buns wrapped around them. He squinted at the hair style. She had dark blue eyes too. She was holding Darien's hand.
"Hi, it's nice to meet you," Serena said as Quatre shook her hand.
"Nice too meet you, too," Quatre said with a smile.
"And this is Athene," Jennifer said as she pointed to the beauty.
"Hi," Athene said kindly.
"Hello," Quatre stuttered, suddenly nervous. Maybe he should ask Duo how to flirt and talk with girls.
Heero, in his usual brisk manor, asked, "Why are you here?"
Two cats, one black, one white, both with golden crescent moons on their heads, walked over to them. The black one spoke, "As a villain's last act of mischief."
Quatre blinked and asked, "She's talking?"
Trowa bent down. He let the cat sniff his hand before he reached out and stroked her behind the ears. "My, that feels good," the cat purred.
Trowa said, "Most animals communicate in ways that we don't understand. It doesn't surprise me that she can talk."
"My name's Luna," the black cat purred, "What's yours?"
"Trowa," he answered as he stood up to his full height. His golden brown bangs were actually out of the way from his eyes. His intense dark green eyes were curious as he looked at the cat. He asked, "What happened?"
Serena smiled and began quite a tale.
******
"So, do you believe them?" Heero asked Relena as what the pilots were referring to as "The Sailor Group" were getting settled in the palace's many guest rooms.
Relena pushed back her hair from her face. Heero found himself watching her. He looked away. He had missed her and he wanted her. He still wanted her. He wanted to feel human and loved.
She nodded and answered, "I'm not sure Heero."
"The talking cats were strange," Heero confessed, shaking his head.
Relena laughed. He wanted to smile, but he didn't. He did like the sound of her laughter though. She said, "That just sounds so strange coming from you."
Heero faced her and said, "I guess we'll just see what happens."
"You don't believe them, do you Heero?" Relena asked him.
Heero shook his head and answered, "I'm not sure, Relena."
"We'll just have to wait," Relena said as she walked away from him. Heero nodded and wondered what was going to happen next, and what their place was in all of this.

Jennifer continued her observation. The one beside her had long, pale blond hair that was caught away from her face by a red ribbon. She had eyes the same color of the sky. She was smaller than the girl beside her, but only by a scant few inches.
The next girl was extremely tall, almost as tall as Trowa. She had auburn hair pulled back into a pony tail with a few curls escaping and floating around her face. Her arms and legs were well toned from what Jennifer could tell. She looked at Jennifer with fierce dark green eyes.
The girl beside her was almost owl like. She had wide, wise dark blue eyes and a sweet face. She looked nervous as Jennifer looked at her. She had closely cropped blue hair.
The guy was extremely handsome. He was tall with jet black hair and mysterious dark blue eyes. He was several years older than the girls sitting around him. He was dressed in all black, adding to his mystery. Jennifer smiled slightly at him while he looked confused.
The girl beside him reached out and held his hand. He tightly held it back. She was tiny, around Jennifer's height. Her golden blond hair was caught up into two pig tails with a round bun on top. Huge dark blue eyes looked at her. Jennifer looked away, to the last girl.
The last girl stood up. She had a commanding, regal bearing to her. She had long honey brown hair that blew softly in the wind. Her bright blue eyes shone with intelligence and wisdom. She was slender, but well toned. Jennifer knew that she was with an equal at this moment.
She held out a hand and said, "I am Athene."
Jennifer looked around and shook her hand. She said, "I'm Jennifer Darkfall. So, how the hell did you get here?"
******
Athene looked at the slight, elfin blond girl. Her hair was extremely long, it's golden mass caught back in a braid that went down to her thighs. Her eyes were huge, a dark, intense green. They shone with intelligence and fire. This girl was a warrior from what Athene could tell.
Jennifer Darkfall's language surprised her. Athene blinked as Lita stood up and asked, "Where the hell are we?"
Jennifer answered, "The Sanq Kingdom." She said it like it should be common knowledge.
Then Athene knew. After they had defeated Beryl, she, as a last act, had sent them to another dimension. That was why they had reverted back to their normal forms. Darien looked up at her, he was probably thinking the same thing, and so was Ami and Rei.
"Hey Jennifer! Did you sense that?" a cheerful male voice called out. Jennifer turned to the voice and her whole face lit up. A young man dressed in black ran up to her, a long chestnut braid flapping behind him like a banner. He reached them and smiled. His violet-blue eyes were filled with good humor as he smiled with his wide mobile mouth. He had a gamin manner to him. Athene had a feeling that he was probably very mischievous when he wanted to be. But she could tell that he had a kind heart, filled with much pain, but kind none the less.
He smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Duo Maxwell, and who are you lovely ladies?"
Jennifer scowled and punched him in the arm. He flinched and jumped away, rubbing the soar spot. "What?" he asked. She grimaced and threw her head up in the air, tilting it away from him.
Lita looked at him, her eyes all lit up. Athene smothered a groan. She knew what was coming.
Lita's eyes became dreamy as she said, "He looks just like my old boyfriend. Look at that hair, those eyes, that body. He's such a hottie."
Jennifer walked over to her, her posture battle ready. Athene was about to spring forth and pull them apart. Darien held out his hand to stop her. Jennifer got into Lita's face. The effect was almost comical. The Elf against the Amazon.
"Okay Lita, I think he's already taken," Serena chirped cheerfully.
"Okay, dang, I was just saying that he was good-looking," Lita said bashfully as Jennifer backed down and stood next to Duo.
Athene pointed to Mina and said, "This is Mina.
Mina smiled prettily as she said, "Hi."
"Luna, what's going on here?" Artemis' voice asked from beneath Rei's robes. Artemis and Luna emerged from behind Rei.
Mina picked Artemis up and said, "I was wondering where you ran off to, Artemis."
"We defeated Beryl and are apparently in another dimension," Luna said.
Jennifer and Duo looked at each other. They said, in unison, "A talking cat."
Jennifer said, "I don't believe it."
Duo said, "That's just a bit too wacked out for me." Athene smiled at that. Duo had a good sense of humor from what she could tell.
Luna said, "Hello, my name is Luna, and we have apparently stumbled onto this dimension by accident."
Jennifer asked, "Another dimension? Like Sliders or something?"
Duo asked, "And who's this Beryl person you keep talking about?"
Luna answered, "From where we are from Beryl is a horrible villain from the Negaverse. We destroyed her, but somehow ended up here."
Darien said, "As a last resort and to get revenge as she was dying, she sent us here." He held out his hand and said, "I'm Darien."
Jennifer then Duo shook it. The couple said, "Hi."
Jennifer asked, "Should we get the other pilots?"
Duo slowly nodded as he looked around the group. Serena stood up and clumsily fell into Jennifer. Jennifer caught the girl and set her back on her feet with a dark look. Serena chirped, "Sorry about that, I'm Serena."
"Hi," Jennifer said icily.
Duo looked around and asked, "Hey, Babe, will you be okay while I get the guys?"
Jennifer nodded. Duo gave her a quick kiss on the cheek before running off. They watched him go. Athene asked, "Who's he talking about?"
Jennifer shrugged and answered, "Some friends of ours."
"I'm Rei," Rei said with her hand out stretched. Jennifer shook it firmly.
Jennifer said, "Hi, nice to meet you."
"Lita," Lita said with a grin.
Jennifer smirked as she said, "The girl who was looking at my boyfriend."
"Could you blame me?" Lita asked.
Jennifer laughed and answered, "No, I couldn't. Wait till you meet the other guys though."
"Are they cute?" Mina asked.
Jennifer smirked and answered, "Cute ain't he word for it. Handsome would be a better term. Except for Wufei. But let's not get into that right now."
Athene smiled, she liked the girl. Jennifer leaned up at the Luna and said, "A talking cat, weird."
Luna stiffened and said, "Well, you seem strange to me as well."
Jennifer raised an eyebrow as she studied the cat with curiosity. She said, "A scientific impossibility. Funky."
"Would you stop looking at my cat and tell us where we're at?" Serena asked as she scooped Luna up into her arms.
"Serena, she's just curious," Darien told her, placing a hand on her shoulder.
Lita asked, "Where is this place?"
Jennifer looked them over, from Serena, Ami, Lita, and Mina's uniforms, to Rei's robes, to Darien's all black wardrobe, to Athene's white T-shirt and jeans. She said, "The Sanq Kingdom. What year is it?"
"2001," Serena answered.
Jennifer stepped back, a thoughtful look on her face. Athene watched the girl. She crossed her arms, her expression thoughtful.

Quatre followed along Duo, Heero, and Trowa. No one had bothered telling Relena about this yet. Quatre was surprised that Duo had left Jennifer alone with some strangers that they didn't know. They walked up the grassy bluff and Quatre froze.
There was the most beautiful girl that he had ever seen. She had long honey brown hair that was slightly cut in layers that blew around her beautiful face. She was his height, slender but very toned. She looked at him with intelligent, bright blue eyes.
"Hey Jennifer, what's going on!" Duo shouted as he ran to her.
Jennifer answered, "You're not gonna believe me, but they're from another dimension."
A tall girl with a reddish pony tail looked at Trowa and Heero adoringly. She said, "Oh, they remind me of my old boyfriend. That hair, those eyes."
Trowa blinked and Heero scowled. As usual. Other than that, the two pilots showed no reaction to the girl's outburst.
Jennifer said, "Okay, that's Rei." She pointed at a pretty girl dressed in temple robes with black hair.
"That's Ami." A sweet-faced girl with short blue hair and dark blue eyes.
"That's Lita." That was the girl with the pony tail that had gushed over Heero and Trowa.
"Darien." He was tall, dressed all in black and several years older than the Gundam pilots. He had jet black hair and dark blue eyes.
"Hello," Darien said.
"Hi, my name's Quatre Raberba Winner. This is Heero Yuy and Trowa Barton," Quatre said, knowing that Jennifer would skip the pilots' introductions. Trowa and Heero simply nodded.
"That's Mina." She was a girl with long, pale blond hair tied back with a red bow and sky blue eyes.
"Serena." Serena smiled at them. She had two blond pig tails with buns wrapped around them. He squinted at the hair style. She had dark blue eyes too. She was holding Darien's hand.
"Hi, it's nice to meet you," Serena said as Quatre shook her hand.
"Nice too meet you, too," Quatre said with a smile.
"And this is Athene," Jennifer said as she pointed to the beauty.
"Hi," Athene said kindly.
"Hello," Quatre stuttered, suddenly nervous. Maybe he should ask Duo how to flirt and talk with girls.
Heero, in his usual brisk manor, asked, "Why are you here?"
Two cats, one black, one white, both with golden crescent moons on their heads, walked over to them. The black one spoke, "As a villain's last act of mischief."
Quatre blinked and asked, "She's talking?"
Trowa bent down. He let the cat sniff his hand before he reached out and stroked her behind the ears. "My, that feels good," the cat purred.
Trowa said, "Most animals communicate in ways that we don't understand. It doesn't surprise me that she can talk."
"My name's Luna," the black cat purred, "What's yours?"
"Trowa," he answered as he stood up to his full height. His golden brown bangs were actually out of the way from his eyes. His intense dark green eyes were curious as he looked at the cat. He asked, "What happened?"
Serena smiled and began quite a tale.
******
"So, do you believe them?" Heero asked Relena as what the pilots were referring to as "The Sailor Group" were getting settled in the palace's many guest rooms.
Relena pushed back her hair from her face. Heero found himself watching her. He looked away. He had missed her and he wanted her. He still wanted her. He wanted to feel human and loved.
She nodded and answered, "I'm not sure Heero."
"The talking cats were strange," Heero confessed, shaking his head.
Relena laughed. He wanted to smile, but he didn't. He did like the sound of her laughter though. She said, "That just sounds so strange coming from you."
Heero faced her and said, "I guess we'll just see what happens."
"You don't believe them, do you Heero?" Relena asked him.
Heero shook his head and answered, "I'm not sure, Relena."
"We'll just have to wait," Relena said as she walked away from him. Heero nodded and wondered what was going to happen next, and what their place was in all of this.
