Author's Note: The title is really bad, I know. But don't let that keep
you from reading. This should be a good story if everything falls into
place in the end. Anyway, enough of my babbling. On with the story!
In the galaxy, at a place eternally surrounded by mist, a doorway exists. But this is not an ordinary door. It is the Time Gate, the doorway through which one can travel to the past or future. Only one has gone through safely, the princess, Chibi-usa. She used the Crystal Key to go back and get the Silver Imperium Crystal to save her mother and Crystal Tokyo. The gate, of course, has its guardian. The Keeper of Time protects it with her Garnet Rod and one of the three Talismans, the Garnet Ball. Now, one person is going to get past the Keeper and escape to the past.
Her silent steps barely parted the mist, her dress whisping quietly behind her. The long pigtails hanging at her sides, shaking with the breeze. In the distance, she could see the shadow of the Keeper of Time, and the faint glow of the Garnet Ball. (Perfect. She will be easy to get past.)
The green haired woman's crimson eyes snapped open, her hand grasping the Garnet Rod. She saw a somewhat familiar shadow coming towards her. "Chibi-usa?" she shouted intot he mist, watching intently.
"Not quite, Time Keeper. Care to try again?" The shadow elongated; it now held an object. "It's been a long time Setsuna." She stepped before Setsuna and a sudden wave of fearful recognition came over her.
"Black Lady!" Setsuna shouted. "But, Chibi-usa!? This can't be!"
"That's right. I'm back, and going to finish what Wise Man started." The object she held, a black umbrella, shot out black lightning.
Setsuna leapt into the air and landed in front of the Time Gate. "Only those worthy may pass her, and you, Black Lady, are not worthy." She spun the Garnet Rod and purple energy surround the Ball. "Dead Scream," whispered Setsuna, releasing the energy at Black Lady.
Anticipating this, Black Lady shielded herself with the umbrella and managed to get in front of the Time Gate. "Good bye Puu. Next we meet, I will be queen and none of you senshi will exist as you now do!" She turned to the Time Gate and her umbrella changed to a key. Holding it up, she began shouting, "I, Black Lady, wish to travel to the past. By the power of this Crystal Key, I command thee to open and give my passage!" As the doors opened and the light shone through the mist, Black Lady walked into the past.
"NO!!" Sestuna took the Garnet Ball out and crimson light glowed around it. A woman's face appeared in the light. "Queen Selenity! Chibi- usa had become Black Lady again and travelled to the past!"
The woman's face changed to concern. "Chibi-usa has been here all day. She and Hotoru are training with Makoto."
Setsuna's face changed to fear. "A new enemy maybe? Selenity, I must follow her. If I need help, then I will call for Uranus and Neptune."
Selenity nodded in agreement. "If she is able to change the past, then none of us may exist." She closed her eyes, thinking. "Keeper of Time," she addressed her by her true title, "find out who this new, and possibly old, enemy is. I would like to know how Black Lady's form is back."
"Yes, of course Queen Selenity. That is exactly what I intend to do. I will keep you, Endymion, and the other Senshi up to date on my progress in the past." Setsuna's sailor fuku changed into a lavender business suit and she turned towards the Time Gate. It's doors opened and she stepped into the light. "In the name of Pluto, the Planet of the Underworld, I command that you open. Open and give me passage into the past!" The symbol of pluto appeared on her forehead in a purple glow. "Time Gate!"
