I once gazed at the stars with my lover. For us it was peaceful. We never really seemed to get along well. It was wonderful; it was my heaven. Now my lover is gone, struck down, and once again I am alone. Being alone is what I've done all of my life that I can actually remember. So what can I do; I just wish I could disappear. . .

With those thoughts Faye Valentine faded away and was never seen again . . . in her world at least . . .

"Fuck!" was the first words out of my mouth. I had just landed flat on my ass in a weird, misty place with a giant door in background. A tall, elegant woman with green hair and tan skin removed herself from the swirling mists.

"Welcome to the Gates of Time, Valentine-san. I am sorry to bring you here so suddenly, but my princess, Usagi, has great need of comfort that none of her senshi can possible provide."

Faye was very confused by the entire statement, so she gave an oh-so wise reply, "Huh?"

"I need your help, Valentine-san." Sailor Pluto sighed, "My Princess's Fiancé, Mamoru, has been killed. I figure since you have just lost a loved one, you can help her."

"What do I get out of this?"

"I will happily give you information about your past."

Faye became visibly excited about this deal. "Yes!" Faye's expression becomes more cautious, "What's in this for you? And how do I know that you aren't lying to me?"

"You do not, Valentine-san. You only have my word."

"I'll go then, I guess."

Pluto gave a small smile at this statement. "Gates of Time, in my father's, Chronus's name, send Faye Valentine to the Princess's time of need. So mote it be." Faye started to fade away into a collection of purple sparkles and soon after. She was gone. Sailor Pluto Smiled again, "I never said your past in this life."

With those words Pluto stepped back into the swirling mists . . .



R and R. Don't expect more soon.
