Even more days have gone by and the Cell games had already arrived. Vegeta had bene the first to get there. With the love of his life of course trying to get in some extra training. Despite the fact that she had aquired more attacks since their last life together she will never be ready for Mamoru's upgrades. Especially since he's taken over her mental fears, sure she's a little wiser form the last life but she's also younger and that change has an effect on her mental health. So he did the most logical thing any loving mate would do. He decided he would train her up until the exact moment the cell games would begin and then she'd be gone and hopefully safe.
"Ok.. now…" Vegeta disappeared quicer than he thought she could follow but as soon as he re-appeared at her right trying to attack her she disappeared and elbowed him in the back.
"That looked painful." Krillin said landing with Gohan and Goku at his side, soon followed by the others.
"I'm sure it did." Serena grinned. "But Veggie weggie head can handle a little hurt from lil ol' me." She said making Gohan laugh.
"Go home." Vegeta stood up.
"Why??" She batted her eyelashes at him. He glared at her.
"Onna, go home."
"Who??" She said making even Trunks stare in wonder.
"Serena, go home." He said and she frowned and locked eyes with him signaling him to open their link.
"But I don't want you to get hurt." She thought sadly.
"I live through this fight remember??"
"Yeah but you forget a lot of things are different this time. Like Mamoru…err Darien is an android as well as Hotaru, whom we still haven't awoken. Uhmm I'm actually here this time and the scouts have no clue who they are and the Moon Palace doesn't exist."
"Fine, then I'll be careful.. but go now. No sense in you getting hurt either." He said twisting face in more of a scowl.
"Alright…" She agreed then sighed. "Be careful guys." She said aloud to the others and left.
"What was that about??" Yamcha asked.
"You don't know yet." Vegeta said simply trying to force himself to concetrate on the idiot that Hercule really is and watch his flunkies fail.
"Serena, where have you been?!?!" Luna asked when Serena climbed into her bed and stared up at the ceiling.
"Out with Vegeta." She said. "He sent me home before the real action started."
"That's good. We don't need Sailor Moon to disappear before our mission is complete."
"You mean the mission that searches for me, who is the moon princess??" She said making the black cat stare in awe.
"You knew??"
"Well.. I just recently remembered." Serena said and her bedroom door swung open and all of her sailor scouts walked in trying to keep Amara cool.
"Amara!! Don't!" Michelle said but Amara's mind was made up.
"Keneko-chan.. please tell me what they told me was a lie." She Motioned towards the inners.
"What did they tell you??" Serena asked the woman.
"That they saw you and that out of control guy.. having an 'intimate moment'."
"You saw that??" she cocked her head to the side.
"What?!?!" Amara said.
"Well, he pretty much does have the right to do so. I'm marked as his… for a while I've been marked as his." She said brushing some hair away from her neck to reveal the mark that was permanent. Everyone stared in slight disgust.
"I'll kill him!!" Amara declared. "I'll Kill him!!!!!" She said and started ranting and raving in Japanese or as to what Vegeta refers to as an old language.
"And risk killing me as well??" Serena sat up and Amara stopped.
"I don't understand." Mina said.
"I think it's time you all remember." Serena sighed opening her brooch revealing a crystal in the center of it. She waved her hand in front of it and her street clothes were gone and she was now wearing her princess gown with the mark emblazed on her forehead and all.
"The Princess." Ami said in awe.
"I want you to listen to me and listen well." Serenity said. "A While back before we all woke up and knew the lives we live now we had lived another one in the future." She said. "At that time you all had your powers as the Sailor Scouts. Mother had arranged for me to marry a prince from an alternate Earth from this one. His name had been Mamoru Chiba. There had been many tries at our wedding but I kept running away. Just when everyone thought I'd cooperate I ran away again only to a tournament. Prince Vegeta, who had been a friend to those in the moon palace, had been fighting an evil entity called Majin Buu. Of course Trista had a fit realizing I had stopped many things from happening by doing that but on the other hand I helped many other people become happy."
"by keeping the unhappy relationship Vegeta and I had and alloowed me to stay with my first love." Bulma said from the doorway making everyone jump. "I remember now. There was a big fight between five of you scouts and Mina and Serena had meldded to become one Scout. The following day you and vegeta had left.. not too long later the rest of you had followed."
"Getting killed." The others finished and glanced at each other.
"Why are we back in time instead of forward into the future???" Michelle asked.
"The spells clashed I guess." Serenity said. "Mamoru had wanted a future where he and I were to be together, mother wanted a future where I can still keep Vegeta so by odd chance the spells clashed and we were sent back in time instead of forward."
"Man.. talk about fate." Amara said shaking her head.
"Hotaru knows of it though." Serenity said. "She always has her memories in tact unless I wish for them to not be. That is why she too is now an android. A Creation meant for 'destroying'.. but according to Dr. Gero she is nothing more than a failed creation, one that refuses to follow her orders." Serena said.
"Oh…" Everyone said.
"So how do we awaken Hotaru??"
"We don't.. she's wakes up herself.. when it's imparative that we must fight Mamoru… err now Darien. If the youmas show up like it did in the end before. With Hotaru being an android now.. she might be able to concentrate her powers better and be our saving grace in this whole situation."
"Hotaru.." A Voice whispered.
"Who are you?!?!" A young girl no older than thirteen screamed.
"Wake-up.. you're going to be late."
"Late?? Late for what??"
"The final battle with Mamoru."
" It happened already.. and we lost. The scouts died, I died, Serenity-hime died, Selenity-sama died.. everydone died."
"But you have a second chance. I can help you out. I can help you and your hime." The gentle voice said.
"c-can you??"
"Yes… but you'll have to trust me." The voice continued and Hotaru looked around seeing an image in front of her eyes.
"Who are you??"
"You'll know soon enough." The small man gave her a reassuring smile. "Now open your eyes. We need to get to your Hime as soon as posible. If she wishes to be ready this time."
"Hai…" Hotaru said opening her eyes.
Within Moments She had broken the box containing her. She looked and saw that she was in her scout Uniform. She quickly de-transformed and walked around the place. She froze When she heard the voices of the Scouts. They all walked out of the room and in a random direction. She went to the open bedroom door and crepped up behind Serena, no longer Serenity and covered her mouth muffling the screams that was loud enough to be heard by the schouts who weren't too far away. By time they got there both Hotaru, Luna, and Serena were gone.
"Serena?!?!" Mina looked wide eyes.
"Luna??" Rei asked and they searched the room.
"check the whole house!!" Amara said and everyone went separate directions.m Within an hour they all met in the living room.
"No where.. and Hotaru's gone too." Michelle said bringing her knees to her chest.
"What do you mean gone?!?!"
"the lid to her box was open and she was gone.. it's empty." The room fell silent.
"You don't think.. Darien took her??" Ami concluded after a while.
