Sparkles of the Past
Chapter #8
They're Off




Darien ran to the temple as fast as he could go, with Reenie trailing behind him.

They had done it. Pinpointing Serenas location hadn't been easy. But for some reason, late

last night Ami's computer had picked up a signal and discovered the silver crystals

presence. It was in this dimension but so far in the past that no one had seen it. Not even

Setsuna. But now they had a lock, and he was going to get his love back. Safe, in his

arms.

Reenies lungs burned but she was happy. Serena! They had found her. Of course her

mother of the future would not be very happy with her for traipsing back to the future

again , without permission, but it was worth it. That creepy feeling she had gone away, but

she was scared. She wanted her mom, she wanted Serena. Only then would she feel safe.



Setsuna hugged Hotaru close and stared intently out Harukas car window. They were

speeding but no one seemed to care. Serena. When the phone had rung Haruka had

answered. The room had been tense until she smiled and tossed down the phone grabbing

her car keys.

"They found her. They know where she is." The grin on her face was from ear to ear and

her blue eyes gleamed. Michiru had barely had time to return the phone to the hook before

Haruka had dragged her out of the house. They were going to get their princess back.


The inners were already at the temple. Living so close by they were the first to arrive.

Now they were all fidgeting. One thought flitted through all of their heads. Serena was

safe.

Rae stood up angrily.


"Where are they? What's taking so long?" she growled. No sooner had she spoken then

the sound of pounding feet were heard, along with squealing tires. Out of breath but elated

the guardian scout of the princess gathered in a circle. They waited for Ami to get the

coordinates set.

"All right group transform" Mina said. Taking her natural role as leader of the scouts.

"MARS CRYSTAL POWER!"

"JUPITER CRYSTAL POWER!"

"MERCURY CRYSTAL POWER!"


"VENUS CRYSTAL POWER!"



"URANUS CRYSTAL POWER!"

"NEPTUNE CRYSTAL POWER!"

"SATURN CRYSTAL POWER!"

"PLUTO CRYSTAL POWER!"

"MOON PINK CRYSTAL MAKEUP!"

"TUXEDO!"

" No body let go of each others hands." Setsuna warned. "So far back in time it would be

impossible for me to find you."

' Finally Ami had the co-ordinates.

And they were off.

And they were down.

Hard.

"Owww!!" Rae whinned. rubbing her sore bottom.

Reenie giggled. "Now you sound like Serena.'

Rae scowled at her.

"Where are we?" Michiru gazed around her in wonder at the blue grass and silver flowers.

"Well we are exactly one-million, thirty eight thousand years in the past. And about

twenty seven billion A.U.'s* from Earth." Ami replied also looking around . "Huh?!" Mina

said. Everyone followed her example, question marks above heads.

"Never mind." she detransformed and motioned to the others to do so also. "We don't

want to alarm anyone." she explained. Little did they know but they already had. Now, the

guards were coming to get them.
