~ Z Moon Senshi ~
Chapter 9
Author: SerenityMoon
Hi , Minna-san ! I'm good to go ! Cram School sucks , in Gym they make you run 2 miles ! My feet are sooooooo sore! Oh well life goes on!. I forgot to mention that time varies and I mean varies between S/M Dimension and DBZ. Time could slow down or go super fast whenever it wants. Also when Hotaru transforms she gets older and more serious.When she detransforms she go's back to her normal age. I am proud to announce that I ,SerenityMoon, am starting a webpage. Of course it'll be Crossover fics only . ( With a few exceptions !! ) I was wondering If I could borrow a few fics from people until I can get up enough of my own. If I can use your fic I will give the person FULL credit for their work. Thank you!
(AN: Slight Animorphs reference, Howlers attack)

LAST TIME .......................... DBZ DIMENSION !
Once again the night was silent. I guess I must have gotten through to him. Or at least confused the hell out of him. Either answer worked for me. " I think we should get some rest " , I told Trunks softly. Trunks nodded curtly at me and turned slowly towards the door. He opened it for me , then just as I was about to enter he put a hand on my shoulder. " Just be careful ." , He said sighing. I nodded at him , and walked into the house .

TIME GATES ............... PLUTO POV (A/N: obviously )
I sighed as I opened one dimension after another , looking for the evil. I couldn't even find a youma anywhere. I gripped my Time Staff tighter as I felt something entering Serenity-hime's world. Again. I concentrated on going there to help save the Senshi , and a dark purple glow surrounded me. In a second I was transported into the middle of the battle.
MICHIRIU 'S POV
Music. I loved it , Lived with it , breathed with it. The slow sad notes slipped from my instrument like water. Oh , how I wished Ruka-chan were there, sitting at the piano playing with me. But we had a duty , a mission , and a friend. Haruka would never leave Usa-chan for anything. Just as I would do in her situation.
All of the sudden I felt the sea churning. There was a youma !At..... At ...... Where?!? I concentrated and tried to lock onto it's location. When I finally got it I screamed for Artemis and Luna. They came rushing in the room already transformed. " Where is it?", asked Crescent. " The Crown Game Center." , I replied stonily. I silently transformed and held hands with Crescent and Kamen.
" NEPTUNE TELEPORT !!!!!!!!!"

DBZ DIMENSION ........................... SERENITY'S POV.
I was abruptly dragged from my peaceful dreaming when my watch started beeping. Stretching I turned it off and got out of bed. It was 3:30 and the moon was still high in the sky.Sleepily I walked to the bathroom and concentrated my clothes off.I jumped into a *shiver* cold shower and thought about the past weeks events.
I was sure that everyone was probably very confused.I respect Gohan but I really don't trust him at all , let alone Piccolo.From what I heard from Little One, Chi-Chi was married to Goku. Then Goten and Gohan were their children. I thought about Little One , he was nothing like his older counterpart. Then again I act nothing like my former self. I already knew basically who belonged to who by their ki's. But it didn't hurt to have a little confirmation.
Realizing it was almost time to meet Vegeta I hopped out of the shower and raised my ki ever so slightly to dry my hair. I checked everyone else's ki and was relieved to see they were all still sleeping.All except Vegeta, he was outside already.' Kuso ' I swore mentally , careful not to open the link between the Senshi and I. I concentrated some normal clothes on and teleported outside.
I appeared infront of Vegeta only seconds later. He smirked, " It's about time chibi-onna ". I raised my eyebrow in question to the nickname. He ignored it and flew in the air. " Let's see what you've got", he called down to me. Keeping my ki as low as possible I transformed into my gi , with my hair braided , and jumped into the air after him. He nodded to me and took off in the direction of the forest. We flew through the air for around half an hour when he saw a clearing infront of him and landed. " Spar. ", he mumbled at me , and the tone of his voice said no question's asked. I landed on the ground across from him and got into a fighting stance. " Hand to hand combat , no ki blasts , no flying .", Vegeta told me slowly and deliberately.
The wind around us swirled in anticipation of what was to come. It blew a few stray wisps of hair in my face as it caressed my skin. All of the sudden the air started to get dense and heavy. I looked at Vegeta to see him powering up. He was flickering back and fourth from having ebony hair and eyes to turquoise eyes and blond hair. I held back the urge to gasp, I remembered seeing him like this before but only for split second power bursts , but I had never seen the actual power up. He was changing infront of my very eyes, then I felt his power level surge.Quickly I threw a shield around us , so that our ki's were hidden. The once soft breeze was now blowing forcefully and if I were 'normal' I would have probably been disintegrated by the sheer power of his energy wave. I guess Vegeta noticed my stare because he tilted his head to the side and asked , " Haven't you ever been Super Sayjin before ?" I shook my head no. " It's a power up only a sayjin can have ", he stated with his ego coming into place. I narrowed my eyes. His ego and arrogance would be his downfall. While we were training together I would quickly change that. I guess Vegeta ended his power up because I saw a lazy punch thrown at me. I dodged his attack and did a round house to his face.
Quickly our battle was underway.

S/M DIMENSION .......................... NEPTUNE ' S POV
We hid in the shadows of the trees while we watched the Inners take on our latest youma. This one was far more ugly than any I'd ever seen. I saw Mercury with a deep gash on her stomach typing furiously on her computer. Mars was in vain trying to hurt the youma. The youma was like a werewolf , but it had insanely long hair , was extremely powerful , and was overly fast. It had a pearcing howl that made any mind it was directed at go numb. I was visually scanning for a weakness. It seemed to be shielding it's tail ............ That was it! It's tail! " Crescent ?", I whispered. " Hmmmm? ", she asked me her eyes still on the youma. " Use your Tiara to cut off it's tail " I told her. She nodded and whispered:
"Crescent Tiara Action ! "
The circular disk was thrown with deadly precision , neatly splicing off it's tail.
" AAAAHHHHHHRRRRRRAAAAAAAGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!! ", the youma screamed in pain blasting Venus and Jupiter into a wall. " It's now or never Crescent ", whispered a voice behind us. Pluto was leaning on her staff looking at Crescent. " I'll help ", she stated in her own way. I watched the two jump out of the tree and land behind the youma. Together they called:
"CRESCENT / PLUTO............. "
Power swirled around the duo, creating a spectacular sight.
" BEAM / DEADLY.............."
Right then and there I pitied the youma. It didn't even have a chance to scream.
" ANNIHILATION / SCREAM !!!!!! "
The two finished the attack with a bang. I looked away not wanting to see the carnage. As usual the leftover energy from Crescent's attack healed the fallen Senshi. Once all of them were standing Pluto disappeared into a portal , Kamen and I jumped out of the tree to land next to Crescent when something grabbed me from behind.

DBZ DIMENSION ..................... TRUNKS POV
' Ugh ', I groaned in my head. ' Why am so tired ?' , I asked myself. Then remembered my late night talk. I glanced at my alarm clock and read the time. I nearly fainted when I realized how late it was. It was nearly 10:30! I raced into the shower room and stripped of my clothing as quickly as possible. ( A/N : Yummy! * drools * )
As soon as I finished with my shower I raised my ki to dry my hair , and then got dressed. I raced out my door and down the hall. As I was about to pass Serenity's room I suddenly stopped. She was training with Tousan right? So, she should be home by now. Cautiously I opened the door to her room , and felt for her ki. She wasn't there. I opened the door all the way. I gasped. The room was nothing like it had been before. There was a skylight (closed) , and the entire room was utterly breath taking. I was so absorbed in the room I didn't notice the small ki creeping up behind me." What'cha doin' ", asked Chibi-Trunks . I jumped ,turned around and slammed the door shut. " N...n. Nothing ", I stuttered. " Where's Tenshi ?", he asked me innocently, " Kassan said she didn't know where she was and to ask you." I glanced down at my counter part. Kids just had to be soooo innocent when they're young. " She's out training ", I replied alot more calmly then I felt. Chibi-Trunk's eyes drooped. " Awww I wanted her to come play with me , ", he whined pitifully. I raised my eyebrow , " What about Goten?". " Goten's mean to me , he teases me cuz the youma beat me up" , he replied walking away. " Tenshi never teases me about that ", he muttered , along with other things like ' baka Goten ' , and ' not fair '.
I shook my head and stifled the urge to laugh. It seemed Serenity brought out the best in some , and the worst in others. While musing with Chibi-Trunk's plight in my head , I headed downstairs. I took the elevator and saw Hotaru reading a book on the couch. Haruka was no where to be found. I walked from room to room till I got to the kitchen. Kassan was humming to herself and cooking what seemed like brunch. ChiChi was washing dishes next to her. " Ohayoo Kassan , ChiChi-san ", I called out loudly, effectively startling them. Senshi or not kassan still couldn't sense ki's yet. " Trunks ", Kassan said in a slightly annoyed voice. " Did you really need to announce your presence like that?!" , she demanded , hand on hip. I gulped and backed away , it was not a good idea to get Kassan annoyed when she's angry. I caught ChiChi's eye and saw her just as irritated as Kassan. " Gomen , Kassan , Gomen ChiChi-san, Gomen , Gomen , Gomen ! ", I apologized profusely. Kassan's face softened and she nodded to ChiChi who finished drying the dish and put it away. " So, Trunks do you know where Vegeta and Serenity-san are? ", asked Kassan." Um, Training.", I stated nervously. ChiChi rolled her eyes. " Of course VEGETA'S training, that's all he does , but where's Serenity-san ?", she asked me. " She's --- ", I started to answer when Gohan , Goten , and Goku came in with torn clothes and small scratches. " Hey , Sleeping beauty finally decided to wake up ?", Gohan asked me with a classic 'Son Smile' on his face. I growled and was about to retort when Kassan interrupted. " Now, Where's Serenity?", she asked. " She's Training , " I hesitated for a moment then continued , " With Tousan."
Kassan's jaw dropped and she blinked. " Are you sure?", asked Gohan. Already frustrated with him, I blurted out whatever answer came to mind. " Of course I'm sure , she just told me last night ...... " , I trailed off realizing my mistake.I was in for it now. Kassan's shocked look got even more shocked , and ChiChi asked, " Last What?!?!" I felt heat rise to my face. " Night ", I mumbled. I decided it was time to clear my name. " All we did was talk and explain certain things, such as how there ' s two of me." The color visibly returned back to Kassan's, and ChiChi 's faces. Then as if the reality of Vegeta training with Serenity sunk in Kassan spoke.
" What in Kami-sama's name does she think she's doing! He'll kill her ! I swear in the name of Mercury if he hurts her, I'll kill him! ", Kassan ranted. " I know, I know", I sighed. " Well then why didn't you try to stop her! ", ChiChi said glaring at me. " Relax ChiChi , Relax ", Goku tried to reassure his wife. " Vegeta-sama won't hurt her ", came a voice from the doorway. I turned to see Setsuna in her fuku. " How do you know?", asked Gohan still wary of this Senshi. " They don't call her the Guardian of Time for nothing you know", stated a voice coming from the back door way. Everyone turned to see Serenity ( in normal clothes hair down) and Tousan standing in the doorway, perfectly fine.It was strange I hadn't even felt their ki coming. " Why would I hurt the chibi-onna anyway", Tousan said with a snort. Everyone, but Setsuna gaped at them.
After a moment of silence , Hurricane ' Chibi-Trunks ' , dashed in the room, nearly knocking Setsuna over in the process. " Tenshi,Tenshi, Tenshi,Tenshi ", he muttered, stopping to glance around the kitchen full of people. All of the sudden he spotted Serenity. "TENSHI!",he yelled dodging Gohan only to glomp Serenity. For a second Serenity was quiet then she smiled , stooping down to his level. " If I'm right, Little One, I think your happy to see me,ne?", she asked Chibi-Trunks. " Yup!", he said. All of the sudden a crescent insignia burst to life on his forehead blinding everyone within range for around 30 seconds. When the light cleared I saw Serenity and Chibi-Trunks both having their insignia's. " I have GOT to teach you how to control that ", Serenity said frowning. Chibi-Trunks laughed gleefully. Tousan rolled his eyes and muttered , "weak baka's". Apparently Serenity heard him because she stood up straight and faced him with a deadly gleam in her eye. " Who in Selene's name are you calling weak?", Serenity asked frostily. " Uh-Oh", Chibi-Trunks gasped racing behind Kassan. Tousan said nothing but nodded to her. " I wouldn't call Serenity-hime weak if I were you", said someone from next to Setsuna. I turned to see Hotaru standing next to Setsuna, leaning against the wall." Unless you have a death wish", stated Haruka who I just noticed behind her.
The room once again fell into utter silence, with Serenity and Tousan glaring at each other. Kassan was looking worriedly between the two when she finally stated, " Is anyone hungry, we're eating out on the patio, Kuririn and 18 are setting up". Tousan,Goku,Gohan,Goten,ChiChi,and myself shuffled out the back door to get ready for Lunch.
SERENITY 'S POV
As soon as the men and ChiChi left , I turned to Bulma and said, " Vegeta-san gets on my NERVES!". Bulma sighed and said," I know the feeling." I turned to Setsuna and said, " So what brings you here Pluto?" She smiled and replied," I just wanted to let you know that everything at the Gates is in order, and your Dimension is fine",she continued, " Although I may not return for awhile, because the youma are quite strong". I nodded at Setsuna. " How have you been Sets-chan?", Bulma interjected. " I've been fine, B-chan , I've died occasionally , but thanks to Serenity-hime here I still live to see tomorrow. Although I do get perpetually bored at times, therefore I checked up on you.", answered Setsuna in a rush with a gleam in her eye, expecting a rash response from her friend. Bulma raised an eyebrow, " You've been spying on me?I don't bel---". I cut her off. " Bulma-san , This might be news to you , but Setsuna-san is SUPPOSED to spy on people. That's how being time guardian works.", I told her in slight monotone. " Ohhhhh ", said Bulma.
" Now if you'll excuse me hime, I must depart.", Setsuna said creating a portal. " Setsuna !,", I called. " Hai?", she replied. " If your ever in trouble don't hesitate to call us , We'll come." , I finished. " Thank-you hime , Ja ne Minna-chan!" , she called disappearing through the portal. Bulma smiled at the place where Setsuna had been, then turned back towards finishing 4 HUGE pots of stew. I felt Little One's ki behind Bulma , so I walked behind her and caught him trying to sneak some frosting off one of the MANY pans of brownies." Hey!", I told him in a ' stern ' tone. He immediately dropped his hand and hung his head." Gomen, Tenshi.", he muttered quietly. I couldn't help it, the look on his face, it was hilarious! I burst out in peals of laughter. Bulma turned around perplexed and asked," What?" " The.... L-Look On.......... his f-face was ..... p-priceless!", I managed to stutter out. Chibi-Trunks was now pouting at me, with his arms crossed, looking much like Vegeta. With a last chuckle , I turned to Bulma . " Bulma-san, I was wondering if you would be available tonight. Hotaru-chan , Haruka-chan, and I are all going to train, and we think it's a good idea for you to come along." , I finished"Let's see....", Bulma trailed off tapping her chin. " I don't think I have any thing to do , so sure .What time?", she asked me. " 6:30.", I answered. She nodded her head and turned off the burner. " Demo, shouldn't Chibi-Trunks come too?", Hotaru asked me. " Iie , I can correct his moonbeam problem very easily", I replied.
After helping Bulma fix the food on the kitchen table, Bulma started to take it out. " Wait, Bulma-san, why don't you let us take it out", piped up Hotaru. Bulma nodded", If your sure you can handle it". " Hai , we can ,", answered Haruka.
With that said Bulma walked out. Chibi-Trunks, however, was still hovering behind me. " Hai, Little One", I asked , turning around. " Well I a .... was ..... a wondering if you would p-play with me after Lunch", he asked in a rush. I pondered for a moment, Chibi-Trunks was a kawaii kid , and he was nice to be around , so I said, "Sure." He looked at me with wide eyes then said, " Arigatoo!", and rushed out of the room.
" Well ", started Haruka,"You certainly have a way with him." I gave her a brief smile then , concentrated on the vast amounts of food before me. The food turned into silver particles then sucked into my outstretched hand. " Let's go.", I stated curtly and walked out.
TRUNKS POV ( A few minutes earlier)
Tousan, Goku, ChiChi, Goten , Gohan, and I walked outside to see Kuririn and 18 putting the finishing touches on the table. " Hey guys", Kuririn said to us. " Ohayoo", I said then sat down. There was silence for a moment. " So, Vegeta how was your training with Serenity-san?", Goku asked. " None of your business Kakarott!", Tousan growled. " Awww, Come on Vegeta, tell us", Goku persisted.
" Fine!", Tousan muttered under his breath. " Soooo, What happened?", Kuririn asked. " It only proved that if trained correctly, she will be the strongest Sa-", Tousan started, but was cut of by Kassan. " Gomen , Lunch is late, but there are more people to cook for.", she said. " Well, Onna where is it?", asked Tousan. Kassan rolled her eyes, " Serenity-san, Hotaru-chan, Haruka-chan, and Chibi-Trunks offered to bring it out.", Kassan said .
A few minutes later the quartet came out of the house, carrying nothing. " Chibi-Onna, where is my food?!?", Tousan half asked half screamed. Serenity smirked but said nothing. Hotaru,Haruka, and Chibi-Trunks sat down on the other side of Bulma, leaving an empty space between Chibi-Trunks and I. " So, is Veggie-chan hungry.", Serenity asked very sweetly. Chibi-Trunks was trying not to laugh and was failing miserably. Kassan was covering her mouth to hide her grin. " You can have what you want ............. if you take back what you said about me being weak.", Serenity stated dangerously low. *Humph* " Never.", smirked Tousan. " So be it", Serenity stated raising her arm , her palm pointed towards us. Kuririn and Gohan tensed. Slowly silver dust began to seep out of her hand. The more dust that flew out the faster it came out. Soon the dust settled onto our plates to form the food Kassan had been cooking.
Everyone looked to be in shock. " How d-did ... you....", sputtered Gohan. " It's magic , Gohan-san , Magic.", Haruka said. I looked next to me to see Tousan fuming. His plate was empty as was Serenity's. " Let's spar Vegeta-sama.", said Serenity.Tousan nodded. Everyone stopped eating to watch them. They started off with a series of kicks and punches with Tousan not being SSJ, and Serenity not even in her trademark gi. Serenity had the same fighting style as Tousan. She was the only one I'd ever seen fight like that. I learned to fight from Gohan, therefore I fought like Gohan. Every punch he threw, she caught and vise versa. Then they took to the sky. Out of nowhere Serenity put her hands in a praying position and shouted:
"AQUA TORRENT ILLUSION!!!!!!!!"
A huge blast of water came from her hands, and hit Tousan directly. It pushed Tousan to the ground soaking him. " Give-up Vegeta-'sama'?", asked Serenity, not even breaking a sweat. She let up with her attack, and revealed a soaking wet FLAT hared Tousan. Over at the patio we burst into laughter.Tousan quickly shook his head back and fourth causing his hair to stand up once more. Serenity and Tousan came to sit down again. Serenity waved her hand and food appeared on both their plates.
" Am I still weak Vegeta-sama ?", asked Serenity once Tousan paused in eating. " Baka Chibi-Onna", he mumbled. Serenity raised her eyebrow and said, " I think I'll take that as a complement." I snorted and shook my head. Serenity and Tousan were quite a riot.
Yet, It nagged at me as to how Serenity had some kind of connection with Tousan. It was kind of like they were best friends. Well as close as Tousan could get to calling someone a friend. During their little 'spar' earlier Tousan didn't even turn SSJ, nor try to beat her to a bloody pulp, like he does with anyone else. To me it seemed as if they had known each other forever.But that wasn't possible . I looked at Tousan to see him talking with Serenity in an ALMOST civilized manner. Glancing at Serenity , I saw her beautiful eyes with a deadly glint to them. Her rosy red lips were curled into a smirk. Her rosy red beautiful lips .............
I mentally slapped myself. There was an enemy approaching and I was thinking such..such..... such beautiful thoughts.......... For the second time in less than 5 seconds I mentally slapped myself once more. Even though I was only half done with my food, I decided to go take a walk. " Excuse me Minna-san, but I'm going to take a walk", I proclaimed to the table. With that I threw my napkin down on the table , and walked away.
SERENITY'S POV ( A few Minutes earlier )
"Am I still weak , Vegeta-sama?", I asked him while he had taken a pause from eating , to get a drink." Baka Chibi-Onna ", he mumbled at me. I knew he really didn't mean I was 'weak' , but it was still a good laugh anyway. After all I was the daughter of the most respected say-jin in history, and as a say-jin I had my honor and pride. Just not a huge ego. "We will train tomorrow,ne?", I asked him.
" Of course , Chibi-Onna.", he smirked. Suddenly his smirk disappeared and his brow furrowed. " Daijoubu ka?", asked Bulma concerned. Briefly he nodded to his mate, his eyes softening at her worried face. " Digadid youdigo evedagager ledagadern todagoo spedidigeak Saidagadugadin-gadago, Serenity-hime( Did you ever learn to speak Sayjigo, Serenity-hime)", Vegeta asked me. I frowned, that language was so familiar to me.
*FLASHBACK*
A four year old Princess Serenity ran down the halls running away from the Queen of Mercury." Serenity-hime ! Slow down , you must stop and learn Lunago! ", she called after her. " Nadago!(No!) ", the little girl screamed not looking where she was going. WHAM!!! "Itai", said Princess Serenity picking herself up, and noticing the long flowing white gown, belonging to the person she ran in to. " Kassan!", she cried and glomped Queen Serenity's legs." Oh, sure she'll use regular language for you .," groaned Queen Mercury. With a chuckle the queen reached down to pick up her musume. " What's the trouble Aquariann-chan", she asked the Queen of Mercury. " Your musume , won't study Lunago, she will only speak Sayjigo.", huffed Aquariann. " She will grow out of it", smiled Queen Serenity.
* FLASHBACK END *
" Hadagadi , Vegeta-san, Idigi remembadager spedidigeaking idigit, odagon thedaga Moodugoon ( Hai, Vegeta-san, I remember speaking it on the Moon .)", I replied somewhat confused. " Why , did you want to know?", I asked. " Speaking Sayjigo is a privilege that any child with sayjin blood should be able to do, if they practice it over the years. Because of your Lunarian Blood I wondered how much your Say-jin Blood was affected.", replied Vegeta. All the sudden Trunks threw down his napkin and announced he was going for a walk. His food wasn't even half gone. I raised my eyebrow, He was a Sayjin, he should have eaten it all and then some. I looked over at Bulma and noticed her once again worried face. I opened the Senshi's Telepathic link. { Bulma-san is there something wrong with Trunks-san?} I asked. { I don't know Serenity-san, although he does seem troubled. And for the last time call me Bulma-CHAN, It's chan or Nothing.} , she answered. { Hai, Bulma-chan }, I replied. { Should someone go after him?}, interjected Hotaru. { I think so , how about it Koneko-chan?}, Agreed Haruka. { Why me ?}, I asked. { Because.}, said Hotaru. { All right Hota-chan .}, I finally agreed. Cutting the Link I stood up from the table. " Fine you guys. Be back in a flash!", I said confusing the non-Senshi. I whispered :Moon Teleport and was gone.
MY POV ( Bwahahahaha)
"Say What?", asked a highly confused Kuririn. " Got me ", replied Gohan. " Where did the Chibi-Onna go, Onna", demanded Vegeta. " She went to go look for Trunks-chan, Tousan, ", replied Chibi-Trunks. " Nande?!, How did you know?", asked Haruka quite loudly. " Cuz you, Kassan, Hotaru-san, and Tenshi were all talkin' about it just a second ago.", he replied. " Chibi-Trunks, no one said a word about going after Trunks, I think you're going crazy", stated Goten. " Actually, we WERE Talking about it ", interjected Hotaru. " NANI?!?! ", cried Kuririn, Gohan, Goku, ChiChi, and Goten." It's a little thing called Telepathy, and as long as Chibi-Trunks harbors some of Serenity-hime's energy he has some of the same powers she does. We were discussing why he left, and the fact that he seemed troubled, so we sent Serenity after him. Chibi-Trunks must have unconsciously tapped into our Link.", finished Hotaru. The table stared blankly at Hotaru. " Do you mind saying that again, but slower," , Interjected 18. The Senshi sweat dropped.
S/M DIMENSION_________________________________________________________
MICHIRIU'S POV
Just as I was about too kick who ever grabbed me I found the end of a spiked cane at my throat. " Let me go", I glared at Tuxedo Mask. He ignored me. Behind him I saw Sailor Mars looking at him with utter shock. Jupiter, Venus, and even the normally quiet Mercury were no better. " Where is the Princess?", he growled at me. " I will NEVER tell you as long as I live", I spat out at him. I couldn't see Crescent and Kamen, but I could guess they were pissed. " Is that so.", he sneered at me,slowly piercing my skin with the blade.....
DBZ DIMENSION______________________________________________________________
SERENITY'S POV
I appeared in a beautiful clearing. I looked around for a moment until I spotted Trunks leaning against a tree his eyes closed. A wind blew blowing his hair in his face slightly. The wind blew again blowing sakura blossoms threw the air. I walked up to Trunks until I was about 2-feet away from him." Hey.", I called softly, not really wanting to disturb him. His eyes snapped open, and he looked at me. I met his ice blue eyes and saw confusion, hurt, shock, questions, and millions of other things I couldn't identify. He nodded to me after a few moments. " O genki desu ka", I asked him stepping slightly closer. " Hai, and Iie",he replied." How s------", I started, but my words were cut off by intense pain ripping threw me. I dropped to my knees and cried out holding my head. I was dimly aware of Trunks holding me upright. " Serenity, What's wrong?!?!", he demanded clutching me to himself to keep me from falling down. " Neptune....", I murmured. " Neptune!!!", I cried loudly. " Nani?", he asked as I started glowing silver. I let images seep threw us of what was happening to Neptune. I narrowed my eyes, that Onore.
"Moon Teleport....", I whispered teleporting Trunks with me back to C.C.
(WHEN SERENITY FIRST ARRIVED AT THE CLEARING TO FIND TRUNKS .........)
TRUNKS POV
I landed in a peaceful meadow to think. I sighed. Kassan would be worried about me, but I needed time to think.For I don't know how long I stood leaning against a tree, until I felt a faint ki approaching me. It stopped within 2-feet of me and whispered, " Hey". I snapped open my eyes to see Serenity standing infront of me. I could tell she was searching me eyes. I nodded to her and continued to stare."O genki desu ka?", she asked me, stepping slightly closer. I racked my brain for an answer.She was worried about me and didn't want to lie to her so I replied, " Hai, and Iie." " How s ------", she started , but she flinched and dropped to her knees. She cried out in intense pain. I went to her side as quickly as I could and held her upright. " Serenity , what's wrong?!?", I demanded not using an hororific. " Neptune.... " , she murmured her voice laced in pain. " Neptune!!!", she cried loudly. I clutched her to me tightly to keep her from falling down.Out of no where a silver light surrounded her, it spread to me, and showed me an image. There was a girl with Aquamarine hair being held by a man in a mask. He had a blade at her throat and would surely slice it. I felt anger bubble in me at this man. He was attacking a woman, an innocent woman......... All of the sudden I heard Serenity call out:
" Moon Teleport.", In a flash of silver we were gone.
ABOUT THREE MINUTES BEFORE TRUNKS AND SERENITY ARRIVE AT C.C.
MY POV
" Haruka-papa please pass the salt", asked Hotaru. Just as the salt reached her fingertips she dropped it and screamed out in agony. " Hotaru-chan!!!!", screamed Haruka dashing out of her chair to help the girl. Chibi-Trunks stopped eating and held his head." Neptune ......... ", Hataru gasped, " Neptune........", she called screaming out in agony once more before passing out. " Oh good Kami-sama!" , yelled ChiChi and Bulma at the same time. Bulma ran to Chibi-Trunks to see if he was all right. He shook his head yes and pointed to Hotaru. " Weak Onna", smirked Vegeta. " What's going on", asked Gohan dropping to his knees beside her." Serenity-san and Trunks are coming in about 30 seconds", Goku interrupted. " Gohan-chan go take her inside, Goten-chan you help him ", ordered ChiChi. 18 and Kuririn followed Gohan and Goten without a word. " No ..... not Michiriu ........" , whispered Haruka.
In a flash of silver light behind Vegeta, Trunks and Serenity stood. Trunks had an arm wrapped around her waist keeping her upright. Serenity was holding her head in her hands. Trunks was flickering between going SSJ , his eyes burning in rage.Trunks whispered something in her ear, and she gave a weak smile. " Arigatoo", she whispered back to him. Serenity turned towards Haruka straightening her posture. " Don't worry , Ruka-chan, just take care of Hotaru", she said. Serenity turned her head to the sky and yelled, " PLUTO I KNOW YOU'RE WATCHING , GET DOWN HERE!!!!". A Madori portal appeared and a hand reached out of it motioning the two to come forward. " Iie, Koneko-chan stop!", screamed Haruka racing towards the portal. The duo stepped inside the portal, and Haruka reached it just as it closed. Haruka dropped to the ground and pounded on it creating a nice sized crater. " Nande Kuso!", ranted Vegeta.
TIME GATES_________________________________________________________________
" Princess, you must hurry or it will be too late.", ushered Pluto pushing them towards the portal that led to Serenity's dimension. " I'm going to kill that Onore", muttered Serenity just before going into the portal, not noticing herself leaning on Trunks. Trunks nodded in agreement not noticing him arm still draped about her waist.
S/M DIMENSION____________________________________________________________
MY POV
" I'll ask you once more, Neptune, Where's Serenity?!?!", Tuxedo Mask screamed at Sailor Neptune. The normally clam Neptune spat in his face glaring in defiance at him." You'll regret that , You forget that we are to become King and Queen.",he growled in her face.Neptune forced out a dry laugh," My princess would never marry you." He was just about to push the blade farther into her throat when a voice stopped him, and the moon slid behind the clouds.
" Becoming King was all you ever cared about wasn't it?", asked the icy voice. " Who are you?!", Tuxedo Mask asked gripping the cane tighter. " You should know me Mamo-chan.", the voice stated with a sweet sarcasm. Sailor Mars's eyes darted around looking for the owner of the voice. The only person who's ever called Mamoru-san ,Mamo-chan, was Usagi. " Usagi-chan !!!!!! ", yelled out Mars. " Chan? Isn't that a term of endearment?Yes it is. Don't call me it. Or Usagi, I. am. Serenity.", Serenity's voice was cold before, but now it was frozen solid. Out of nowhere a silver blast knocked Tuxedo Mask away from Neptune. Neptune fell to the ground choking up blood and holding her throat. The moon rose from behind the clouds.
10 feet to the left of Neptune stood two figures, the male obviously holding the female, and the female glaring daggers at the man on the ground. " Attacking an innocent woman", growled the man," shameful." " Who are you?!?", hollered Jupiter. " May I introduce Trunks ,Ooji no all Sayjins", Serenity cut in leaning heavily against the figure." Sayjin ooji ........ Kuso.", muttered Jupiter. At the words Sayjin Ooji Mercury was pale faced and scanning him for confirmation. " Usagi no baka what are you doing?!, It's your destiny to marry Mamoru!", Mars screamed. " Hai, I'll marry him and let the Onore kill my Senshi, I think not", Serenity retorted sarcastically stalking towards Neptune. Serenity kneeled infront of Neptune and placed a hand on her neck and arm. Serenity glowed silver and soon so did Neptune. Neptune felt the bruise on her arm from where Tuxedo Mask had grabbed her fade away. The pain in her throat soon ebbed away allowing her to breathe normally. Serenity took her hand off of Neptune's throat and helped her stand up. Quickly the iciness in her eyes faded a bit , and the Princess hugged Neptune.
Tuxedo Mask groaned a bit and stood up. " Usa-koi, why are you with that Kono yaro Sayjin.", he sneered at Trunks. Trunks glared at the man that had insulted him. With out a warning the air surrounding Trunks grew dense and in a flash of gold he turned SSJ. The Inner Senshi paled at the sheer power he was emitting. In a flash of silver Serenity powered up with her fighting gi intact. All the Sailor Senshi present gasped. Serenity's eyes flashed and glowed a dangerous silver as she ran at Tuxedo Mask with impossible speed. When she reached him she picked him up and slammed him into a tree, cutting of his air.
" Iiieeeee!!!!!!!!!", cried Mars thinking,' I'm mad at him for attacking Neptune, but she can't kill him!', " I won't let you do this!!!!!".
"MARS FLAME SNIPER!!!!", she cried.
" Iie!", cried Sailor Neptune trying to intercept the attack even if she knew she wasn't fast enough. In a golden flash Trunks was standing just inches away from Serenity and about a foot away from the arrow. He held out his hand to the attack, palm stretched forward and let it hit him. Creating a huge cloud of smoke around the trio. A wind blew the smoke out of the way and ........... Trunks stood there unharmed, not even a scratch on him. " NANI?!?", screeched Venus and Mercury at the same time. " No one ........ NO ONE hurts Serenity", Trunks said feeling a sudden wave of protectivness wash over him. Crescent raised an eye at the use of no honorific at the end of Serenity's name.
In the mean time Serenity was choking the life force out of the now detransformed Mamoru. " If you ever touch Neptune again ..... Omae o Korosu." , Serenity stated her voice dripping with venom and hate. " I am supposed to be King.", Mamoru managed to croak out. If possible Serenity's eyes turned colder and gripped his throat tighter. " You will never become King, I declare it in the name of Selenity , and swear it on the sword of Artemis you will NEVER become king", Serenity stated her eyes displaying cold fire and rage. Suddenly, Serenity's eyes turned back to their normal cerulean blue and she dropped him, a facade placed upon face. Serenity turned towards Crescent, Kamen, and Neptune. " If you wish to come with us you may.", Serenity stated in monotone. " Iie, Serenity-hime we will stay here until the evil here is beaten.", Neptune spoke for the trio. Serenity turned and placed a glare that could have frozen Shinigami him self on the Inner Senshi. Jupiter and Venus unconsciously stepped back, with Mercury standing still absorbed in her computer. Mars stood straight and stared defiantly.
" I see where your loyalties are placed.", Serenity stated to them in the same tone of voice she reserved for Mamoru. " You would sooner attack your princess and follow a traitor like HIM.", she continued. " Search your memories of the Silver Millennium and you will see he was nothing , but a coward, and an Onore", she finished willing her feelings of hatred for the Inner Senshi flow freely in her aura. Finally Mars cringed away.
Much to the shock of the inners Serenity flew towards Trunks and placed a hand on his shoulder. At her touch he powered down, his lilac hair falling into place." Let's go, Trunks-kun.", Serenity stated powering down also, her hair flying free. A second later a portal opened next to them and the duo stepped out of sight.

SERENITY'S POV
" Puu-chan?", I questioned through the mists. " Over here Hime", Pluto called walking towards us. " Good-Job? ",she continued. " Um, Puu-chan,Is there anyway we could see what happened just before we left?", I asked her hesitantly. " Hai, follow me.", Pluto said walking until she came to a stop at a seemingly birdbath filled with water. Pluto waved her staff over it until it rippled and showed us 45 minutes into the past.
PAST
Haruka stood up and stalked into the house, ignoring Vegeta's outburst, her facial features set in stone. The others hurried in quickly after her. She stalked into the the living room where Gohan was putting a cold compress on Hotaru's head and Kuririn was hovering worriedly. 18 stood in the doorway , not really sure what to do. " Move.", growled Haruka to Gohan. In a flash of sandy yellow she stood as Sailor Uranus. " Uranus Power", She called, placing a two fingers on Hotaru's forehead. In a black flash Hotaru was Sailor Saturn, and wide awake. " Whoa.", breathed Gohan. Uranus helped Saturn up, then crossed her arms and waited. " I suppose you're wondering what's happening......", started Saturn, but Uranus cut her off. " Damn right I do! And if I don't find out soon there's going to be hell to pay!", Uranus yelled bringing out her space sword. " Calm down Haruka -papa!", Saturn ordered then started to speak again. " Michiriu-mama, Sailor Neptune, was attacked ................. by ....by ....", Saturn started her eyes cast down ward. " Who?", questioned Bulma in a somewhat calm state. " Mamoru-san.", Hotaru whispered, and everyone heard her.
" NANI!?!", screamed Uranus griping her sword tighter. " That Kono yaro,baka, bakana, bakayaro,Kusottare,Onore !!!!!!", Uranus ranted. ChiChi had covered Goten's ears, while Bulma had done likewise with Chibi-Trunks. Gohan looked shocked that such words were allowed to escape any mouth. Kuririn was just as shocked as Gohan. Vegeta looked on with mild interest. Goku looked slightly confused. 18 was smirking and somewhat pitying the man who had caused this Senshi to get angry. " Haruka-papa we should de-hension and wait for them to comeback. We should wait outside, they'll be back soon.", Hotaru assured Haruka.
" But wait why didn't Chibi-Trunks pass out too?, he obviously felt the same thing Hotaru did.", Bulma questioned. Hotaru shook her head in agreement, then said," The only reason he felt it at all, is because he's tied with Serenity-hime for the time being. Therefore she was able to block out the painful parts of knowing when a loyal Senshi is in danger." Bulma nodded her head in understanding then started to usher everyone outside.
END
SERENITY'S POV
" Haruka-chan's going to be pissed.", I groaned placing my face in my hands. I heard Pluto stifle a laugh and open a portal for us. Suddenly the whole situation stopped being, so funny as I realized what I did. I nearly killed someone. Innocent or not he was human and I wasn't allowed to decide his fate. " Pluto?", I asked. She nodded for me to speak. " Onegai, don't mention what I did, you know what I mean, even if he deserved it, I didn't have the right to do it.", I said all in one breath. " Hai, Hime", Pluto answered pushing us towards the portal. " Ja Ne", she called after us.
We entered the Midori/ Murasaki ringed portal and landed on the ground 50 feet away from C.C. Everyone was outside doing their own thing. I saw Chibi-Trunks showing off his silver pager/ hologram locket to Goten. Goten didn't look very happy. A few seconds later the heads of Vegeta,Goku, Gohan, Haruka, Hotaru, Chibi-Trunks,Kuririn,18 and Goten snapped in our direction. " Kuso.", I heard Trunks mutter behind me. I flinched, I had forgotten he was behind me. " I guess we should go tell them.", I said throwing a glance at Trunks. He started to walk towards them when I placed a hand on his shoulder, and he turned around. "Arigatoo, Trunks-kun.", I stated looking him in the eye." For what, Serenity-hime?", he asked raising an eyebrow. " For helping me,and onegai, call me Serenity-chan.", I explained. He gave me a brief smile/smirk and walked forward.
MY POV
" Koneko-chan ..........", Haruka growled when she felt her Hime's ki along with the sayjin prince. Everyone who had strayed about the yard, came forward and waited for the duo to emerge. A few seconds later Trunks came forward first followed by Serenity. " What happened?", demanded Haruka brandishing her space sword once more. Frowning Serenity replied," Neptune is fine ,and completely healed." Haruka visibly lost some of the tension in her aura, and her sword dissipated into thin air." What about Mamoru-san?", asked Hotaru holding her hands infront of herself. Serenity's blue eyes flashed, then she tensed and turned her head down eyes downcast. "Well?", questioned Haruka. " I'd rather not speak about it.", Serenity stated in cold monotone. Haruka recoiled as if she had been slapped, she wasn't expecting the harsh tone coming from her Hime. " What did happen to him, Chibi-Onna?",Vegeta demanded repeating Haruka's question. Serenity kept her head down for a moment then lifted her head slightly,her eyes closed. "I won't repeat myself, Vegeta-sama.", she stated her voice complete frost. Suddenly her eyes snapped open to reveal emotionless silver eyes. Vegeta's eye's widened for a moment showing surprise. Serenity turned away from everyone then said, " Haruka continue to train Bulma-san, take Little One and train him in the way's of the Moon." " But, Kone--", started Haruka. " I'll be back just ,Onegai, do what I ask.", interrupted Serenity levitating in the air.Trunks turned to stop her, but a glare from Haruka kept him at ground level. After a brief pause their was a silver flash and Serenity was gone. Vegeta powered up to SSJ , prepared to go after her when a small hand landed on his shoulder. " You better find her, Vegeta-koi.", Bulma said in a soft voice, her eyes held worry and concern for the young female warrior. Vegeta turned to face his mate, sensing her uneasiness he placed a hand on her cheek and held her head softly. " It's my job to protect her, as she is the last living Lunarian. Weather it be that damned Prince of Earth that hurts her or her Senshi themselves, I will protect her. Besides she's a demi sayjin, she'll survive", Vegeta whispered to Bulma. Bulma nodded and Vegeta pulled away to find everyone staring at them. " Baka's.", he muttered causing Bulma to crack a smile. With that said he blasted off in the direction Serenity went.
" Did that just happen?",Gohan asked. "Yup, I saw it with my own two eyes onii-san, see?", Goten replied pointing his index fingers at his eyes. "Forget that, He just said she was a demi sayjin!!!!",yelled Trunks. "How can she be, she's not in any of my files", interrupted 18. Hotaru, Haruka,ChiChi and Bulma stood on the sidelines watching their family and friends argue over one little detail. " Haruka-papa can we calm them down?", asked Hotaru. " I have an idea.", stated Bulma pulling out her hension stick. " What?", asked Haruka, her lips twisting in an evil smile. " I figured it out last night, watch.", Bulma replied.
"MERCURY PLANET POWER!!!!!!!"
In a blue flash that didn't even faze the arguing people Bulma was Sailor Mercury.
"MERCURY AQUA MIRAGE !!!!!!!!!!"
A Blue triton appeared in her hand, it was taller than she. A huge blue ball of water appeared at the end of it. The water started shooting out balls of water the size of basketballs at the still arguing people. Soon the entire posse of people were dripping wet." Kassan....... ", growled Trunks. 18 generated a swift ki blast along with Gohan and they threw it in Mercury's direction.
"WATER WALL !!!!!"
A wall of water appeared infront of the women and absorbed the attacks. "Wha ..... ", Gohan started his shoulders slumped. ChiChi burst out in a fit of giggles at her son's expression. " ChiChi ...........", whined Goku. This only made her laugh harder. Trunks raised his ki to dry himself off. " Hey, how did you do that.", Kuririn asked. Trunks shrugged. Goku noted exactly how Trunks manipulated his ki, then tried it on him self. " Hey , it worked!", Goku called out. " You sayjin's really grate on my nerves.", Kuririn muttered, ringing out his shirt. Goku let out a hearty laugh and placed his hand behind his head.
When the water chaos was sorted out, and Bulma detransformed everyone went in the living room of C.C. Bulma, Chibi-Trunks, and Hotaru were seated on the couch, while Haruka and 18 sat on the two seater, and Kuririn, Gohan, ChiChi, and Goku sat on the opposite couch, Goten was sitting on the floor leaning on his mothers legs, and Trunks took his usual place in the recliner.
" So, did you girls know that Serenity-san was a demi-sayjin?", ChiChi asked directing the question towards Haruka and Hotaru. Hotaru nodded her head Iie."All we ever knew, All we were ever allowed to know, was that Serenity-hime's father was not of our solar system, and that he died defending his planet, before Serenity was born.", Hotaru told ChiChi." The only person besides the Queen herself who knew was Queen Selenity's cousin , Aphrodite-sama.", said Haruka." Now we know why.", stated Hotaru.
" Nani?!", asked Goku. " Marriage between Lunarian's and Say-jin's were forbidden, and any heir produced was to be destroyed.", explained Haruka. " How come?", asked Chibi-Trunks. Haruka ran a hand threw her hair and sighed. " Say-jins were considered the most powerful Darkness , but Lunarians were the most powerful people of hikari. ", added Hotaru. " Onegai, understand that with the two most powerful races ever producing a heir could cause mass destruction everywhere.", started Haruka " But hopefully Serenity-hime will be able to control the powerflow.", interrupted Hotaru.
" Wait, you do know that Aphrodite-sama was the Megami of Love, or Venus right?", asked Gohan.Haruka shook her head Hai. " If Aphrodite-sama was Selenity-sama's cousin, then Selenity-sama is a Megami, and that would mean, Serenity-hime is a demi-megami also!", Bulma yelled out. Hotaru nodded to Bulma then said," and Aries is her resident uncle." The room was silenced for a moment, letting everyone digest the information. " I hope Koneko-chan's all right.", sighed Haruka, her face etched with worry. Suddenly Haruka stood up." You,", she said , pointing at Trunks," Exactly what the hell happened?", said Haruka sitting back down.
"Well ........", he started.
TRUNKS POV
" Well.", I said Looking at the Haruka. " When we went through the portal, Pluto basically shoved us through another portal, pausing long enough to tell us there wasn't much time. In a few seconds we were standing in the shadows waiting for a moment to attack, without hurting the aqua hared girl.", I started. " Michiriu.", Haruka stated. " Nani?", I asked her. " The girls name is Michiriu,", Haruka elaborated. I nodded in agreement, then continued." After waiting a second we saw Michiriu-san spit in the man's face,", I said smirking. Haruka hid a grin behind her hand. " Then we heard him mutter about how she was going to regret that, and that he and Serenity were going to become King and Queen someday. Serenity-san lost it when he edged the blade around Michiriu-san's throat ---," , I started, but Haruka interrupted." What blade?!?", then she materialized her sword and muttered, " Ha, I'll show him a blade."
" Anyway,", I said wanting to distract Haruka", Serenity-san yelled out,' becoming King was all you ever wanted' the man panicked and got careless with the blade, so Serenity-san shot a ki blast at him. He dropped the blade and flew a good distance away. A woman in green asked who I was and on her way to Michiriu-san, Serenity-san yelled out I was the Ooji no all Say-jins.", I said pausing to breathe.
" Wait a minute Serenity-hime actually introduced you like that?,", asked Hotaru smiling." Hai.", I replied." She must have been pretty angry then.", Hotaru replied."What does that have to do with anything?", interrupted Gohan. Hotaru sighed. " All the Sailor Senshi knew of the Say-jins, for their power and strength, along with their ruthlessness, Koneko wanted them to be in fear.", Haruka explained, then added smirking," I would have loved to see the Inners faces, after all, Koneko-chan wasn't with just any Sayjin, she was with the Ooji." Apparently Gohan caught on because he said," I see, the Senshi are afraid of us." Hotaru shook her head," Iie only the Inners."
"Anyhow", I interrupted gaining everyone's attention,"Serenity healed Michiriu-san , and the Onore in the tuxedo, called Serenity-san 'Usa-koi', and he called me a 'Kono yaro'. I was kind of angry so I went SSJ, Serenity-san transformed and her eyes were glowing silver. Serenity-san jacked the man up against a tree and started choking the life out of him." , I explained pausing for a second, seeing Hotaru's worried face. " Then girl in red yelled out ' Iieeee', and shot an arrow at Serenity-san. Michiriu-san ran to intercept it , but wasn't fast enough , so I did. Meanwhile Serenity-san was behind me swearing death threats on this guy. He muttered something and she choked him harder, and made threats in the name of Selenity and on the sword of Artemis.", I said glancing at Haruka to see her clenched fists. "Serenity threw the man on the ground , then gave the four women in Blue, Red, Green, and Orange a piece of her mind. When she was done we powered down and left.", I finished.
"This is not good.", murmured Hotaru. " Nani?! What's wrong", asked Kassan concerned. " She's making death threats on two out of the three most holy things in the Universe.", Haruka explained. " Which are...", Kuririn trailed off.
" Number 1: the name of Selenity, Number 2: the sword of Artemis,", Hotaru said.
"Koneko-chan swore in the Name of Selenity, and if something happens that somehow makes her brake that vow, something terrible may happen. The sword of Artemis is the instrument of Shi itself, and swearing on that sword is like sealing someone's death.", explained Haruka her brow creasing with worry .
I glanced at Hotaru to see her trembling, and clenching her fists. "O genki desu ka?". I asked. Hotaru looked at me and said , " Hai." Haruka sighed. " Even if Koneko-chan is not here we must train regardless." Kassan nodded hesitantly in agreement. Without another word, Haruka, Hotaru, Chibi-Trunks, and Kassan walked out. " I say we watch them,", Kuririn exclaimed. Goku nodded in agreement, and stood up to follow.
WITH VEGETA AND SERENITY .....________________________________________________
MY P.O.V.
A young teenager is seen standing on a hill, the wind blowing her silver hair every which way. Her now deep blue eyes hold a sadness one her age should never know. She knows she's changing, she can feel it in her bones. Her dear departed mother warned her, but she didn't think the change would be so drastic.Her frosted over heart was focused on breaking through the icy barrier surrounding it, only causing her mind to believe the worst.
An older man gazed at the woman with fatherly concern.He didn't quite understand what was wrong with the hime, but he was determined to find out. He thought about leaving the chibi-onna to her thoughts, but thought against it, when he remembered his mates words.
The silver hared girl was oblivious to the mans stare. She didn't know he was there, and if she did she didn't care. The girls posture was straight, her fists clenched, her eyes holding unshed tears. She tried so hard to be strong, yet her resolve was fading. Her heart made her want to cry, her mind wanted her to keep a cold glare never to shed a tear. She has had enough. Enough. The ice barrier cracked, and broke dragging a flood of pain throughout her body.
She let out a heart wrenching sob, dropping on the ground. She pulled her knees up to her chest letting the waves and rivers of silver hair cover her figure completely. Her body was racked with silent sobs of despair. The man watched on unsure of what to do.
A snow white wolf with piercing blue eyes, came to the hime, slowly. The man tensed watching the animal cautiously. The animal seemed to have no ki whatsoever. Suddenly, the girls head snapped up. Her eyes were red rimmed, the only traces of her tears. The girls eyes locked with the wolf's. The wolf slowly came closer to her face till it was about a foot away. The girl reached out and pet the creature behind it's ears. The wolf rested it's head on the girls knees, completely trusting her. " I shall call you Shiro.", whispered the girl, burying her face in it's mane, crying once more.
The man however, was shocked that the girl could befriend a wild animal with the greatest of ease. He landed down on the ground about 6 feet away from the girl. ~Tuski-hime~ , thought Shiro to the girl. The girl, startled the wolf could talk, nodded her head not looking up. ~There is a man approaching, is he friend or foe?~ , asked the Shiro putting itself between the hime and the stranger, growling. The girl looked up and murmured," Friend." Shiro backed down lying by his mistress once more.The girl dried her eyes, and stood up. " Hai, Vegeta-san?", she asked her head down. Vegeta walked up to the girl, and placed a hand on her shoulder. " Chibi-onna,........ Serenity......", started Vegeta, he was at a loss for words. " It'll be o-kay ," , he said finally. Serenity nodded in agreement, sending a futile smile his way.
" Do you think Bulma-chan will let me keep Shiro?", asked Serenity looking up at the man who wasn't much taller than she was. Vegeta smirked at the large animal, hiding behind Serenity's legs. He snorted with suppressed laughter as he imagined the look on his mates face when they brought it home. Vegeta nodded , a wicked gleam in his eye , and started levitating. ~ I fly with the wind, as I am part of it, Tuski-hime. Just call and I'll be there.~, said the wolf fading with wind. " Doomo, Shiro-chan.", Serenity whispered before joining a shocked Vegeta in the air. " Wha- Where did that creature go?!?!", demanded Vegeta. Serenity smirked, powering up, and stated," Oh, Shiro's around." Not waiting for a reply from the Ooji, she blasted off towards C.C.
S/M DIMENSION______________________________________________________________
MY P.O.V.
Rei paced worriedly around her shrine glancing at the comatose Mamoru. "Ami-chan did you get the results on that guy yet?", asked the ever impatient Minako. " Almost got it.", replied Ami. Makoto was busy sitting at the small table fingering her henshin pen. Suddenly a groan was heard from Rei's bed. "Mamoru-kun?", asked Rei, coming directly to the beaten man. " Ugh, What the Hell happened?", he demanded holding his head in his hands. " You were just beat up by your future wife.", supplied Makoto cracking her knuckles, and hiding a grin. Mamoru groaned again. " I've got it!", cried out Ami suddenly. " You do?", asked Minako," He was sooo Bishoonen!", she finished, hearts filling her eyes. Rei smacked Minako upside the head grumbling about 'baka Mina-chan' , and' almost as bad as Usagi'.
" So, what's it say, Ames ?", asked Makoto sidling up next too the blue hared girl. " Well there's good and bad news.", Ami started closing her computer. " Well, what's the good news?", asked Mamoru, jumping into the conversation. " The good news is Usagi-chan is not possessed, nor is she infected with negative energy.", Ami said slowly. " But she flew!", Minako interrupted. " Let me finish Mina-chan, #1 she has the Golden crystal, and #2 I've discovered what her father was." , Ami finished. " And that's good news because how?", asked Mamoru obviously angry as to where 'his' crystal was. " Well, that is good news , compared to the bad.", Ami pointed out. " What's the bad news!?!", Rei asked losing her temper.
Ami sighed.", The bad news is, Usagi's father. A say-jin." "NANI?!?!?!", yelled the three teenagers. " I already knew.", whispered Minako. " NANI?!?!?!", screamed Rei getting out of her seat to tower over Minako." How did you know!?!", asked Mamoru slightly better tempered than Rei. " Kassan told me. She said Queen Serenity said to tell no one.", Minako defended. " And you kept it from us?", snarled Rei. " Don't tell me that you would have disobeyed a direct order from Queen Serenity!", Minako shot back , angrily. " That's ENOUGH!!!!!", yelled Ami, surprising everyone again. " We have more important things to worry about!", she continued. "Anyway, that man she was with WAS infact a Say-jin. And he WAS the Ooji, he had the royal blood. Not to mention the fact that he protected Usa-chan", Ami stated glaring at Rei." Kami-sama not the Say-jins.", murmured Makoto. Even Mamoru looked pale. " Is that all?", asked Minako taking her role as leader. " Iie.", answered Ami. " That Say-jin was 1/4 Mercurian Royalty.", finished Ami. " You mean he's .... O my Kami", stuttered Rei. " Now that, that's taken care of.....", started Ami glaring at Mamoru,"we have to discus Mamoru-san's problem.", she finished.
" What problem?", asked Mamoru cockily.Ami raised an eyebrow, " You attacked a fellow Senshi, hurt her, and threatened her beyond belief! And you, Rei are no better, attacking our HIME!" The quiet, shy, Hime of Mercury was currently glaring alternately between Rei and Mamoru. " She would have killed Mamoru-kun, I couldn't allow that! Besides he would have done the same for me!", Rei replied her temper flaring once more. Ami frowned and a light blue glow surrounded her. " What's happening?", cried Minako. In seconds she too was surrounded in an orange glow, followed by Makoto who was surrounded by green. Mamoru and Rei watched intently waiting for something to happen. All of the sudden the glows subsided leaving three very pissed of Senshi. " Iie, Rei your wrong, he wouldn't have saved you, he would have ran like he did in the past.", Makoto stated, her left eye twitching. " What are y-you talking about Mako-chan?", Mamoru asked nervously.
" How do you know?", asked Rei hotly. " Because he left Serenity to die when Beryl came!", Interrupted Mina standing up to glare at the unfortunate Onore. " And you called that Say-jin Ooji a Kono yaro? He didn't run when Mars shot an attack at her, he ran to intercept it!", Ami retorted in a harsh tone. " Minna-chan, you've all gone mad, he died protecting Sere----", Rei started till she was surrounded in a red glow of her own. Mamoru started to try to run away before Rei was done, he knew he was screwed, BIG time. Just as he was at the door he turned around to make sure all the girls were still seated. Suddenly two girls voices said," I don't think so." He jerked back around to see Minako, and Makoto standing back to back their arms crossed, a menacing expression on their faces.
Suddenly someone tapped on his shoulder. He turned around only to be met with the face of a VERY angry Rei. Rei was to angry to speak so she didn't, she drew back her fist and hit him as hard as she could in the face.
WHAM!!!!!!!
Mamoru fell like a sack of potato's unconscious. Makoto whistled in agreement to the man's fate. " I feel lower than dirt.", muttered Rei looking darkly at Mamoru. " Why?", asked Ami,"According to my calculations Mamoru deserved what he got and alot more!" "Iie, not because of Mamo-baka, because I failed to see through the lies. And in result I .......... I attacked Usa-chan.", Rei whispered sitting down on her bed. " What have I done?", Rei asked herself.
DBZ DIMENSION______________________________________________________________
MY P.O.V.
Sailor Saturn swung her glaive at Sailor Mercury(Bulma). Mercury quickly reacted by blocking the attack with her triton. Sailor Uranus watched on amused at the shocked looks on the male population's faces. Not one of them believed that Bulma could fight.
Sailor Uranus noted the differences between Bulma's and Ami's Fuku. Bulma's was a slight shade lighter than Ami's. Her choker had an star on it similar to Saturn's. Bulma had Blue high heels instead of boots.Above her tri layered skirt was the sign of Mercury in-between two pieces of Ribbon connecting the bow on her back. Her hair was waist length and she had a triton.
All of the sudden Sailor Uranus felt Serenity and Vegeta's ki overhead. " Hold it!", called Uranus to the two sparring Senshi. The two stopped in their tracks, and peered at the sky. In the short time they had been sparring Bulma had learned, how to sense ki, and fight effectively with her triton.
As Serenity and Vegeta landed on the ground Hotaru detransformed and ran to Serenity embracing her. " Sere-chan, don't go away anymore.", whispered Hotaru into the older girls shirt. Serenity hugged the smaller girl back, and smiled softly. Bulma de henshioned, and walked over to her husband." Well.....", Bulma asked poking him in the ribs." What, Onna", Vegeta asked smirking at his mate. " What happened?", she asked. Vegeta did nothing but cross his arms over his chest and smirk.Bulma sighed. She wouldn't get a thing out of the stubborn Ooji.
" Bulma-san?", asked Serenity." Call me CHAN! San makes me feel old!", Bulma scolded. " Bulma-CHAN?", asked Serenity emphasizing the CHAN part. " Hai, Serenity-san?", asked Bulma. " The chan rule works both ways you know?", Serenity pointed out. Bulma just smiled nodding her head. " Anyway, while I was gone I met a friend, I was wondering if he could stay here?", Serenity replied. Unbeknownst to Bulma Vegeta was smirking like a mad man, he knew who Serenity's new 'friend' was. " What do you mean 'he' Koneko-chan?", asked Haruka suspiciously. " He's real nice Haruka-chan, you'll love him, I do.", replied Serenity, a highly evil gleam in her eye. Vegeta snorted, His eyes holding amusement. " NANI!?!?!", screeched Haruka, thinking evil thoughts about this 'man'. " I don't see why not.", Bulma said hesitantly eyeing her husband and hime. ' Uh-oh, these two are scheming, I can feel it', Bulma thought. " Do you know him Vegeta-chan?", asked Bulma sweetly. Vegeta suddenly found some imaginary point very interesting. "Well....", Asked ChiChi becoming suspicious along with her aqua hared friend. " Well, can I call him?", asked Serenity hope shining in her eyes.
Trunks had been ready to leave, he didn't want to meet the man his Serenity was in love with. The thought of her and another person, made his blood boil.Plus his heart ached when the words,'He's real nice.... you'll love him, I do', escaped her lips. He was about to walk away when he heard Serenity call,"Trunks-kun stay awhile, I'm sure you'll get along." Hesitantly, he stopped and turned around, feeling as if the pain in his heart would consume him. He nodded numbly, and took his place by Kuririn once more. He noticed Gohan eyeing him so I looked at him.' Trunks-kun?'.,Gohan mouthed almost breaking down in laughter. Trunks was in no mood therefore he gave Gohan a glare that could rival Vegeta's. Gohan shrunk away sensing the mortal danger he was in, at the moment.
Serenity levitated around ten feet in the air and called out,"SHIROOOOO!!!!!".
(An: Not to be confused with Relena's mating call which is HHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRROOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!)*ouch ouch hearing aid *
Around a mile away a wolf was settled it the high grass staring at nothing. Suddenly, the words Shiro, carried through the wind, and directly to him. The wolf jumped up excited that his Mistress had called him. He howled in anticipation, letting her know he was on his way.~coming Tuski-hime ~, he thought to her, hoping she heard. With one more howl he faded with the wind.
Serenity lowered to the ground , and heard the howl of a wolf. Shiro to be more exact. Faintly she heard ~coming Tuski-hime~. She smiled and waited a few more seconds to hear a second howl. The sun was going down creating a ghostly atmosphere with the wolf howls. "Where is he?", asked Gohan raising an eyebrow. She said nothing as she felt the air around her become different. It ran through her hair and all around her saying 'hello'. The air was Shiro. Serenity smirked ," He's here." She spied a lot of confused faces and heard some huh's from the group.
Suddenly the air on her right side created a small tornado. " Look out !", yelled Kuririn taking a step back grabbing 18's hand in the process. Serenity stood calmly, while Trunks wanted to leave as soon as possible. The wind in the the mini tornado started taking a form, a shape. The figure that stepped out of the tornado didn't even remotely resemble a person. The tornado dissipated revealing a white wolf. " See Haruka, don't you love him already?", Serenity asked smirking. While, Vegeta on the other hand was out right laughing. Haruka had a dumb founded look on her face which soon eased into an embarrassed smile. Trunks was gaping at the animal with disbelief in his eyes. That was definitely NOT what he had expected. But it worked for him. And slowly the pain of the demi-Megami loving another left his heart.
" Minna-san, Meet Shiro-chan.", Serenity stated petting the creatures head. ~ Are they friends?~, asked the wolf. " Hai.", Serenity replied scratching it behind the ears. The seemingly tame wolf wondered off, to inspect the people. He started with Vegeta, who had his hands draped at his side. ~I remember him.~, Shiro thought for all to hear. " Excuse me, I think I'm hearing things.", Goku stated speaking up for the first time in awhile." Nope , Tousan, I heard it too.", Gohan replied. Serenity laughed lightly saying," It was Shiro." Meanwhile Shiro was licking Vegeta's hand. Suddenly, the wolf turned from Vegeta to Bulma and came up to her, Bulma yelped and ran behind Vegeta. Shiro stared at her then, walked to Chibi-Trunks.Sensing Serenity's aura around him, he nuzzled the boy's hand. Then he went to Trunks. ~ Oi, he's a bigger version of the smaller one, How bout I say Hello.~, Shiro private thought speech to Serenity. She giggled causing people to stare." What?", she asked innocently. Without warning Shiro jumped with lighting speed on Trunks', chest causing him to fall backwards in the grass. " Whoa!", he cried, windmilling his arms. In the end Trunks landed on his back, with Shiro prancing on and off him. Finally, Shiro found a spot to curl onto Trunks. The wolf let out a doggie yawn, rested it's head on Trunk's stomach and 'dozed' off.
Gohan burst out laughing like a hyena. Goku cracked a grin, and was followed by Kuririn. 18 and ChiChi just rolled they're eyes, and mumbled'baka's' " Can we keep him Bulma-chan?Onegai?", asked Serenity pleading with the older woman. " That thing listens to you right?", asked Bulma cautiously stepping out from behind a smirking Vegeta. " Of, course he does Onna.", Vegeta replied. " Yeah Kassan we never had a pet before, and it already likes Trunks see?",Chibi-Trunks said pointing to the two on the ground. " Oh, O, All right.",Bulma relented throwing her hands up in defeat, then grinning at her older son's plight.
The wolf would just not get off of him. " Get off.", stated Trunks for the millionth time.~ You didn't ask nicely.~, Shiro said slyly to the stuck to the ground boy.Causing the people around him to laugh harder. For some reason no matter how hard he tried he couldn't get the animal off him. " Fine,", Trunks grumbled." Will you onegai, get off of me, Shiro-chan?", asked Trunks. ~Sorry, too late now, I just got comfortamble~, Shiro replied laying his head back down.
"AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGG, SERENITY-CHAN!?!?!?!", Trunks yelled. In seconds Serenity was at his side scanning for any problem." What?", she asked bewildered." First off, Get him off me, Next Why is he So heavy?, He's a wolf, for Christ's sake!", Trunks exclaimed." He's a Wind Wolf.",Serenity started winking at him," Maybe I'll leave you two here for a bit." , she finished then walked away. " Let's go inside Minna-san!", Serenity called and held open the door for 18, Kuririn,ChiChi, Goku,Goten,Chibi-Trunks,Bulma and Vegeta.When she realized her Senshi weren't coming she turned around and saw them waiting to speak with her.
On her way over she hopped over Trunks who had long since given up getting Shiro off him. " Hai, Haruka-chan, Taru-chan?", Serenity asked. "Koneko-chan, we know you are part Say-jin.", Haruka stated brushing her hand through her hair. "Don't worry we don't think it's a bad thing, it's just ........ be careful, O~kay.", Hotaru finished for her 'papa'. Serenity flashed a smile,"I'll be fine as long as I keep the light, no matter how much the dark wants to consume me." " Now let's go in!I need to go take a nice long shower!", Serenity stated.
Hotaru and Haruka shrugged in agreement and followed their hime inside.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3 WEEKS AFTER SHIRO FIRST COMES!
(An: I know that it's a big time jump but oh well.)
MY P.O.V.
It was soon discovered that ChiChi should have named Goten 'Got in', and Bulma should have named Chibi-Trunks 'Trouble'. Therefore when you put them together you get Got in Trouble. The two boys had caused more havoc than, Serenity had managed to cause in the Moon Palace.Chibi-Trunks was angry at Goten, because Goten stole his silver locket, so he put a hole through his ceiling with his moon-beam. Goten had laughed about it till he got cornered by his Kassan, Bulma,and Serenity. When this took place Serenity 'calmly' explained that he should be lucky Chibi-Trunks couldn't aim his beam or else Goten would have been blasted to oblivion a million times over.Goten quickly apologized to Chibi-Trunks and returned the locket.
Serenity also started teaching Chibi-Trunks 'Moon Power'. He quickly learned the art of controlling his moon symbol, now remember this is AFTER the locket incident. Also she taught him to control his Moon aroura so that it wasn't detected. She thought this of the utmost importance seeing as how the enemy might mistake him for her. He also mastered speaking telepathically with Serenity and Bulma. He couldn't quite establish a link a permanent link with Haruka and Hotaru yet. Plus he could teleport short distances with other people.
The two children were fighting again and Goten blew up half of the gravity room, earning himself death glares from Vegeta and Bulma for a week.There were a few youma attacks, but they had all been easily beaten. They were getting easier for some strange odd reason, but every morning like clock work Serenity and Vegeta trained.
They also managed to end up locked in the bathroom, on the third floor. When ChiChi found them she found the room a flurry of white. There was shaving cream and bubbles all over the place. It took her a moment to spot the boys in the mess. They looked like snowmen, with big innocent eyes. Needless to say they were both grounded for a week, and were only allowed bathroom trips for three minutes.
Then Shiro had made it a point to pin Trunks to the ground every few days, for a 'few' hours. And every night after Trunks had been pinned Shiro was found in Chibi-Trunks' room the next morning.
During that time, Serenity had grown fond of Trunks and he of her. Now they were nearly attached at the hip.They shared stories of the past and problems in the future. According to Bulma they were having 'puppy love'. After much protesting on their part, she finally relented, griping about not having grandchildren yet, much to the embarrassment of the Serenity and Trunks. Every night Shiro pinned Trunks down, Serenity would come about 10 o'clock and shoo Shiro off, then wake up Trunks and go to bed.
This all happened quite methodically, though one night something changed.
MY. POV.
Slowly the backdoor creaked open to the back yard of Capsule Corporation. The person was obviously female and wearing black and silver nightclothes, covered by a black C.C. jacket. The figure walked about 20 feet away from the house till she came upon two sleeping figures. "Shiro-chan?", she whispered poking the wolf in the ribs. The animal stood up quickly alert. Then it noticed Serenity, ~Hai, Tuski-hime?~, he asked. " I'm going to wake up Trunks. You go with Chibi-Trunks,If something happens get Little One and teleport to me.", Serenity stated. The wolf 'nodded' ." I want you to find him and keep him safe tonight, I have a strange feeling.", Serenity added. ~Hai, hime-chan~, The wolf said fading into the air.
SERENITY'S POV
The Moon was shining bright making me glow like a radioactive corn field, but I didn't care. When I was sure Shiro-chan was gone I glanced at Trunks. I was now sitting down next to the demi-sayjin, looking at his peaceful face.His face was pale under the moon, as his chest rose evenly with every breath he took. Sometime that day his hair had come out of the loose ponytail he had it in. His hair was displayed all about like a fan. For once I noticed his face wasn't uptight with worry, or any kind of emotion. He just looked peaceful, completely at ease.
I realized I was staring at him, but I couldn't help it. My heart beat fast when he was near me, like now for instance, It's beating so loud I'm sure people in the Underworld can hear it. I can't help, but remember the way he held me when I fell, because of Michi-chan's attack.I can't help but want him to hold me like that again. I can't help, but remember how he held me when we appeared infront of the others. I remember being warm, safe, protected, and ...... What? What, was the other feeling? It was more than friendship, could it be love?
I felt my eyes harden, at the word, a word that didn't exist to me. I couldn't fall in love, I wouldn't fall, I refuse! As I look down at the mans face in front of me, I can't help but ask myself : What if I've already fallen?
The only answer to my question is: hook line and sinker.
TRUNKS P.O.V. A few minutes earlier.
I feel a weight pushed off my chest as I hear someone talking to Shiro. The voice..... The voice of an angel ....... Serenity. I know she sent Shiro away, but I wasn't paying attention to what else was said. I let myself drift into my own thoughts, keeping my breathing even to look as if I were still asleep. I kept my face relaxed.
Serenity was the Tenshi I could never have. Kami-sama.I feel her gaze on me, but I don't dare move. I've never felt like this towards another person before. It almost physically hurts to be away from her. I've been around plenty of girls, at school, at Kassan's Corporate parties, everywhere. But not one of them held my interest. Can I be in love? If love is wanting to be there, protect her, spend every minute with her, touch her, hold her, caring more about her life than my own, then I'm in love. Because every single one of those things apply to the way I feel.
The day when she fell down in pain, Because of the Senshi bond I realized what I felt, ever since then I just want to hold her. Later that day when I thought she had found someone besides me, I thought I'd die.The pain from my heart was so excruciating I felt I would collapse. The sad part is no matter how much I may love her, She may not feel the same for me. I feel as if I should say something about it to her, but if she said her feelings were different then mine, I would cease to live. But at least for now I have hope.
Hope.
Suddenly, I feel small fingers belonging to Serenity, brushing stray strands of hair out of my face. As her fingers brush my forehead, I feel a jolt of warmth spread through out my body. Kami-sama. I've been touched by a Tenshi. " It's almost a shame to wake you, Trunks-kun.", she whispers to me much to my surprise. I say nothing. " Do you know what's happening to me ?", Serenity asked not expecting any answers.I feel something wet on my cheek. I realize it's a tear. She's crying."I think I've finally figured it out.", she trails off."I don't know why.", Serenity continued. " I vowed never to do it, It only causes pain.",she stated with venom in her voice." But it's too late.", She went on her fingers ever so lightly brushing the hair near my forehead. " The damage is done, I've fallen in love.", she stated her voice cracking at the word love. I felt my body tense at the words spilling from her lips. Finally I hear her choked whisper," With you." That's all I needed to hear. I open my eyes and stood up, to see Serenity standing faced away from me her shoulders heaving with her sobs. Tentivly I reach my arms around her and whisper in her ear," Ai shiteru." Serenity tries to calm down as she looks at me in confusion. " Nani?", She asks me. " Ai Shiteru.", I reply smiling slightly. She then twisted her body around, so she was facing me. Looking in my eyes she saw the truth in my words and threw her arms around me. I wrapped my arms around her waist, and buried my face in her hair.
MY P.O.V.
A few minutes later she shifted in his embrace which brought her face inches from his. " Ai shiteru, Trunks-koi.", she whispers. Trunks brought down his face just enough to brush her lips against his. Just as he pulled away, he found himself pulled back to her, crushing his lips against hers. The signs of the Cosmos and the Moon are visible on Serenity's forehead, and on Trunks' the signs of Mercury and the Cosmos. Serenity's crystal once again splits in two, giving the Golden Crystal to Trunks, Leaving the Ginzuishou to Serenity.
The two lovers don't realize they've transformed into royal garb. Serenity, in a flowing black and silver dress. Trunks in black and silver armor, With a silver hilted sword, covered with sapphire diamonds.Suddenly Serenity pulled away from Trunks realizing her change." What's happening?", asked Trunks fingering his sword. Serenity said nothing but grasped the floating crystal above her head. Trunks looked up to see a golden one above himself, so he grasped it too.
Serenity's crystal twinkled merrily as if it were happy, while the golden crystal did likewise. Then the two crystals dissolved into sparkles and flew into their owners. As soon as the crystals were gone, the insignia's on their foreheads burst with light, and the royal clothes faded away. " What happened?", Trunks repeated gathering his koibito in his arms once more. " You are the new owner of the Golden Crystal.", Serenity replied smirking to herself. Trunks sighed," Would you mind explaining that in detail?". " The Golden Crystal is a part of my Ginzuishou. It is the second most powerful object in the Universe.", Serenity explained. " Why do I have it?And why did you have those symbols on your forehead?", Trunks asked frustrated. " First off, you understand that Bulma-chan is a Senshi,ne?", Serenity asked. Trunks nodded and said,"Hai." " Well you do realize she is the sole heir to the planet Mercury?", Serenity explained smirking. " Nani?!?!", Trunks cried. " Technically, She's Queen of Mercury, which would make you the Ooji.", Serenity stated, cursing herself for not realizing that if Bulma was Mercurian, than Trunks and Chibi-Trunks should be too.Not MUST be, SHOULD be. " What does that have to do with your symbol's?", asked Trunks. " You had them too, Although instead of the Moon symbol you had Mercury.", she told him matter of factly. " NANI?!?", asked Trunks.Serenity nodded then said," I'm not sure why you had the star symbol though,As for the Golden crystal, It belongs to the one I love." Trunks nodded his head slightly confused.Serenity laughed lightly and said," All you need to know is that you and I are going to be training together, nearly all the time." Trunks smirked and nodded in agreement to Serenity's words.
" We should get some sleep.", Serenity stated yawning to prove her point. She slipped out of Trunks' embrace, and started walking towards the house. A second later she felt Trunks tug her backwards by her arm. She spun around in a flurry of silver,his arms wrapped around her waist, her hand resting on his chest. " I'm not tired yet.", Trunks stated huskily, his eyes half lidded. Serenity responded by tilting her head back slightly, and wrapping her arms around his neck. Trunks descended down to Serenity's lips. He kissed them softly, relishing in the feeling of Her lips on his own. He traced intricate patterns on her lower back, feeling her tighten her arms around his neck, pulling him closer to her. Slowly they parted, letting their lips linger.
" I have to get some sleep.", Serenity whispered trying to will herself away from her newfound love. " Why?", asked Trunks, his eyes glazed over. " Because I'm training with your Tousan, baka.", Serenity stated playfully. Reluctantly Trunks pulled away, his arms still wrapped tightly around her waist.Slowly, the couple walked into the house, just enjoying their closeness.
Careful to keep their ki down they made it to Serenity's room unnoticed. " Goodnight, Trunks-koi.", Serenity stated, hugging him briefly. " Sweet dreams, my Tenshi.", Trunks replied squeezing her tight, not wanting to let her go. No more words were said as Serenity slipped into her room. After gazing at her door for a second, Trunks turned around and tiptoed down the hall to his room.
THE NEXT MORNING
MY POV
At 3:30am Serenity got up tired as a dog. She quickly followed her ritual of taking a cold shower to wake her self up. Her balcony window was open and was blowing a FREEZING breeze in the room. She knew it would get warmer later, but she couldn't help but wish for Trunks. She was cold last night, but when she was in his arms she was quite warm. She spied his C.C. jacket hanging on the edge of her bed, and grabbed it. She slipped it on her shoulders, and teleported outside.
As usual Vegeta was ready and waiting for her. "Ossu.", Serenity said to Vegeta. Vegeta snorted and said,"Took you long enough chibi-onna." With that he jumped in the air, pausing to wait for Serenity. Serenity transformed and followed in suite." You know that blasted animal, woke the Onna and I up last night.", Vegeta started. Serenity said nothing but nodded hai. " When I got up the animal got off the bed apologizing, saying he was looking for Chibi-Trunks by your order, and he must have confused the energies.",Vegeta stated with a smirk on his face. " That sounds like Shiro-chan, to scare Bulma-chan at ungodly hours.", Serenity stated with a smirk of her own." Why were you sending the animal after Chibi-Trunks?", Vegeta asked seriously. " I'm worried.", Serenity stated flatly, creasing her eyebrows." Oh, Why not send him after Kakarotts brat?", Vegeta asked. "Because the enemy won't be after him.", Serenity half explained in monotone. Vegeta stopped in mid air, then sped up to catch up with her. " Nani?!?", demanded Vegeta," My son is who the enemy's after?", Vegeta demanded an evil glint in his eye."Iie.", Serenity said curtly. Vegeta flew infront of her stopping her in her Tracks," Explain.", he demanded. " Nine times out of ten, the enemy is trying to kill me. Your son still has Moon Power, and I always shield mine, therefore I am never found by the enemy. But if your son forgets to shield his power the enemy will go after him, thinking he is me. Then if they find Little One they'll kill him or worse.", Serenity stated in cold monotone. She hadn't meant to sound so cold, but that's what happens when important subjects. Vegeta nodded slowly, and moved out of her way to fly once more.
They landed on the ground in the usual clearing. " We're working on ki attacks today.", Vegeta stated smirking. Vegeta then floated in the air and said," Watch carefully, I'm only doing this once." Vegeta gathered his ki and placed one arm out palm foreword, the other hand was holding onto his wrist. With a loud cry he released the energy. It looked as if to be a mix of ki and fire, although it didn't seem very powerful. As soon as the attack hit the intended boulder, the boulder exploded, along with most of the area around it. Vegeta came back to Serenity, smirking at the look on her face. " Can you do it, Chibi-Onna, It's called the Big Bang Attack?", he asked her. She nodded confidently, and walked a few steps away, and concentrated on how she saw Vegeta use his ki. She remembered how he built it up in his body then released it, in one powerful blast.
She performed the same stance he had, then built up the energy. Just as she couldn't contain it any longer, she let it loose. In brilliant silver the attack headed towards another boulder. It sparkled with electricity, and just as Vegeta's it didn't seem very powerful. But when it hit the boulder, it created the same result.
When Serenity turned around, she saw Vegeta gazing at her in surprise. " Nani?", she asked confused. " You did it on your first try, Chibi-Onna.Good.", Vegeta smirked.
As the morning passed Serenity learned many of Vegeta's attacks. Even attacks that belonged to others, but he managed to master in time. He was amazed at how fast she learned, but wouldn't voice it. She learned :
______________________________________________________________________________
Bakuhatsuha or raising two fingers, she created a large explosion that will totally decimate the surrounding area or the ground under an opponent.( Vegeta's attack)
Big Bang Attack which is a huge ki bolt of incredible destructive power. (Vegeta's attack)
Final Flash is a.k.a. Galic Gun, she powered up the blast like the Kamehameha, but when she released the blast, her hands were both palm-forward.(Vegeta's attack)
Genocide Attack A series of Ki blasts shot into the air, which seek their targets upon being fired. (Goku's)
Kienzan, a flat, disc-shaped Ki blast, which can be used to slice through its target with deadly accuracy. (Kuririn's)
Death Ball, a small ball of energy which can be created from either the tip of the finger or with both hands.( Freeza's/ Cell's)
Dodonpa a blast shot from one finger, which explodes upon impact. (Tien's)
Solar Flare which temporarily blinds the opponent.(Vegeta's attack)
______________________________________________________________________________
Around 11:00 ,which was later than usual, Serenity dropped to the ground from energy drainage. They had just gotten done with aerial sparing, using ki. She had done more work than Vegeta anyway, seeing as how before that he only did each attack once, while sometimes she had to do it five or six." Let's go back.", Vegeta stated actually worried about the girls safety. Serenity nodded, grabbing the long discarded C.C. jacket, off the tree branch. Serenity started levitating in the air, slipping the jacket on in the process. She looked at the sky and realized it was gray and cloudy, it was going to rain soon. She pulled the jacket tighter and smiled slightly at the thought of Trunks.
She flew up next to Vegeta and started slowly towards C.C. " Were did you get that?", asked Vegeta noticing the C.C. symbol on the arm of the jacket for the first time. "Trunks-kun.", she stated in monotone that half the people in the Briefs household were used too. She desperately fought down a blush, and covered it up with a scowl. Vegeta raised an eyebrow, but said nothing more. Suddenly the sky grew even darker, and it started to rain lightly. Serenity flew in lazy circles enjoying the rain on her skin, while Vegeta flew next to her scowling.
All of the sudden it started to pour rain. It came down in hard pelting sheets making it extremely hard to fly or see. " This is ridiculous.", Serenity muttered rolling her eyes. She grabbed Vegeta's shoulder, and concentrated on a picture of the Briefs household." Wha.....", Started Vegeta, then recognizing the ki manipulation, he stated," Serenity STOP, You've used to much energy already!". " Moon teleport.", was her only reply.
As the two disappeared out of sight a bolt of lighting struck were they flew just seconds before.
BACK AT AT C.C. FIVE MINUTES BEFORE THEY ARRIVE.
MY P.O.V.
Trunks paced worriedly around the living room of C.C., glancing out the window every so often."Trunks-san, sit down they'll be back soon, It's just a storm, Serenity-hime has been through much worse.", Hotaru said to him. Trunks slumped in a chair holding his head. "Yeah your right, Hotaru-san.", Trunks stated softly calming himself down. " I hope this rain stops,Koneko-chan told me it's hard to fly in.", said Haruka, just coming downstairs. Trunks groaned and leaned back on the couch. " Way to go Haruka-papa, I just got him calmed down.", Hotaru said softly. Trunks got back up and started pacing again. He looked at his watch it was 11:15, They should have been back over an hour ago.
Outside the Briefs household there was a brief silver flash, and a soaking wet Serenity and Vegeta appeared.Serenity started to open the door when a wave of weariness washed over her and she started to tumble to the ground. Vegeta, with quick reflexes caught her before she fell. " Put me down.", she mumbled.Vegeta picked her up with one arm on her back and the other under her knees. " Iie.", Vegeta replied stonily leaving no room for argument, yet Serenity being Serenity argued anyway." I'm fine, I tripped, put me down.", she protested weakly. "Baka chibi-Onna you don't trip,", Vegeta started pausing to open the door.Once it was open he continued," baka chibi-Onna, you try to strain yourself continuously, you never learn."
Inside the living room Trunks was already walking towards the door to open it once he felt their ki's outside. Just as he was about to open it, the door opened itself followed by the words," baka chibi-Onna, you try to strain yourself, continuously, you never learn.", followed by a weak," put me down." Trunks was trying decipher what was going on, when he saw through the dimly lit hallway that a passed out Serenity was being carried by Vegeta. It broke his heart to see his koibito so helpless."What happened?", he asked. "She used too much energy.", was Vegeta's grunted reply. "Here let me take her upstairs, so you can get changed before Kassan has a fit your getting her floor all wet.", Trunks proposed, hoping that it didn't sound to suspicious that he wanted to take her. He wasn't sure how his Tousan would take the fact that he was involved with her. Vegeta hesitated for a moment then handed her over to his son, and walked off.
Trunks started towards the elevator so he could get there quicker. He shifted Serenity so he could press the elevator button. The doors slid open, and he stepped in. As he was in the elevator, Serenity's gi faded away, and her hair became unbraided, leaving her in a soaking wet t-shirt and Jeans.As soon as the door popped open, Trunks dashed down the hall to Serenity's room. He popped open the door and laid Serenity on the bed. He remembered that she was soaked, and considered calling one of the girls to change her clothes. Then he remembered how he dried off when Bulma shot water on them. But if he used to much ki he could burn her.He remembered that Hotaru once said that Serenity used a crystal to do the magic, so maybe he could use the crystal he had. But where was it?
He decided to focus on the warmth that had been in his chest ever since the crystal entered him. Slowly a golden glow surrounded him. It wasn't the golden glow of when he turned SSJ. This glow was more....serene. He walked over to Serenity and picked her up in his arms once more. As they touched a silver glow surrounded Serenity. He concentrated on her being dry, and sure enough he felt the water stop dripping from her. Suddenly he had a crazy idea. If he could transfer his power to her external body so that she could dry off, maybe he could transfer some energy INTO her, so that she'd be able to wake up. Slowly he tried to expel more energy to her body. Somehow he felt it was working, but he wasn't close enough............
Slowly he bent down and placed his lips on hers. The soft gold glow surrounding him started to grow furiously. The glow around Serenity responded likewise. He kept his lips on hers for a few moments more, and pulled away when he felt hers start to move under his. As he pulled away the glow around himself subsided, as did Serenity's. Suddenly her eyes fluttered open, revealing confused blue orbs. " What time is it?", asked Serenity. "5 to noon.", he replied feeling moderately tired. " NANI?", cried Serenity," I should have been asleep at least until this evening..........", she mused. Trunks sat down on the bed, leaning against the head board ,his koibito still lying in his arms.
Suddenly she turned to stare up at Trunks."Nani?", he asked. " You used the crystal didn't you?", she asked softly. " Hai.",he replied slowly. " Arigatou, but don't ever do it again, until I show you how to use it, if your not in full control it can kill you.", she whispered. Then she turned around so she was on her stomach, still in his arms. "Onegai, promise me, Trunks-koi?", she asked him. Trunks nodded his head, and tightened his arms around her." Then in return you promise me, never to strain yourself like that again, It worries me", Trunks stated seriously. Serenity nodded the same as Trunks did just seconds before. Showing a smile Serenity wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning real close to his face. Just as he leaned in to kiss her, she was gone in silver sparkles. " NANI?!?!", Trunks cried hopping off the bed. He looked over in the bathroom and she wasn't there, he looked everywhere in the room, and she wasn't there. " Sere-chan, this isn't funny.", he stated. Suddenly he heard small chuckles sounding throughout the room. " All right, Where are you?", he asked looking under the bed. The small giggling turned into full blown laughter. He stood up from leaning to look under the bed with scowl on his face.
Out of nowhere something pulled him backwards on the bed." Wha....?", he asked until he caught a glimpse of silver above him. Quicker than the human eye he reached out and grabbed her by the waist. He pulled her down next to him and pinned her on the bed. " Gotcha'.",he stated, making the sad mistake of looking into her eyes. Just as his grip laxed, she flipped him over on his back pinning HIM down. She leaned over him, letting her waves of silver cascade around them both. " Who's got who?", she whispered to him her breath tickling
his lips."Ai shiteru, always Sere-koi", Trunks whispered, his eyes displaying nothing but love."Ai shiteru, too Itooshi.", she replied leaning down to kiss him gently. Feeling his arms wrap around her waist tightly, she closed her eyes and just focused on the man beneath her. Still liplocked Trunks shifted so that he was sitting up with Serenity in his lap. Trunks used one arm to support her back, and the other was holding tightly to her waist. Serenity slid her arms around Trunks' neck, pulling him closer. Tentivly Serenity felt Trunks' tongue trace her lower lip. She obliged by parting her lips to allow his tongue entrance. With the first step done, their tongues engaged in an ageless dance that comes naturally.Slowly with small longing, lingering kisses they parted because of the annoying habit of needing to breathe.
Trunks opened his eyes to see Serenity panting slightly, her face flushed. He couldn't think of a better sight to see when opening his eyes. " W-we should, get going.", Serenity panted,"They'll get worried or worse yet Bulma-chan will send Vegeta-san after us.And if he sees us in this position, you won't be walking for awhile.", she continued smiling softly." I'm not worried about Tousan, I'm worried about Haruka-san, and that sword she has.", Trunks said smirking. Trunks placed a quick kiss of her forehead, and allowed her to stand up. Serenity reached behind herself to grab some of her hair, to see how badly it was knotted. When she saw she groaned and fell back on his lap. Trunks quirked an eyebrow, and wrapped his arms around her. "Nani?", he asked her. " My hair is longer than I am tall, and now it has more knots than shoelaces!", she groaned again. " Can't you just Magic the knots out?", he asked. Serenity shook her head, iie. " Last time I tried I turned my hair green and I couldn't remember how to turn it back for a week." Trunks started smirking, and Serenity sat up and magicked two brushes in her hand. " This is all your fault you know?", she stated handing him a brush. She turned her back towards him, and started brushing the sides of her hair. Trunks took a hint and did the back. " How is it my fault?", Trunks asked finally. " I don't know, It just is!", she replied her voice full of authority. Trunks laughed and continued with her hair.
10 minutes later they were done, and Serenity braided her hair to keep it untangled. Serenity magicked new clothes which happened to be white jean flares, a blue baby-T that said Tenshi on the front with glitter, white sneakers, and a white button up shirt, tied in the front. " Look good?", she asked Trunks. "Looks beautiful from where I'm standing.", he replied. Trunks looked at his watch," It's 12:45, if we hurry we won't be too late for lunch, Kassan said it would be ready at 12:30." Serenity nodded, and walked towards the door. " Come on slow poke, I'm not gonna be the one to make Bulma-chan mad.", Serenity said , her eyes displaying laughter.
The two walked down the hall, with Trunks' arm around Serenity's waist, her head on his shoulder, her eyes displaying contentment. They entered the elevator this way, and when they came out they were walking shoulder to shoulder, Serenity's eyes were no longer the happy, carefree ones seen before, but now they were hard as ice. Walking room to room, they got to the dining room without speaking a word. Opening the door Trunks walked in calling,"Ossu." All the heads turned in his direction." Nani?", Trunks asked, startled at the looks he was getting. "Hai, I'm fine everyone, just in case you feel the need to know.", Serenity stated from behind him. The Senshi breathed a sigh of relief, and Vegeta frowned,"You were not fine an hour and a half ago, Get. To. Bed." "I'm fine Vegeta-sama, check my powerlevel.", Serenity replied in monotone. Vegeta scowled and started to eat again." Don't do that to us Koneko, you nearly gave us all heart failure, when Vegeta-sama told us what you pulled.", Haruka scolded lightly. " I know Haruka-chan, Trunks-kun gave me a worse lecture than Okassan's.", replied Serenity referring to Queen Selenity. Trunks gave her the evil eye, and Serenity smirked.
Just as they were finished eating, Sailor Pluto stepped out of a portal. " Ossu, Minna-chan.",Pluto called bowing quickly to Serenity. "What's going on, Puu-chan?", asked Serenity, suddenly suspicious of her friends entrance. " I should be asking you, hime.", Pluto replied with a mischievous gleam in her eye. Serenity narrowed her eyes, that gleam was familiar..........
FLASHBACK (Serenity = Princess/ Selenity= Queen)
"I'm NOT marrying that baka.",Serenity-hime stated her voice full of venom. "Sumimasen, musume-chan. It can't be changed, I don't have the power to do so.",Selenity-sama replied. Serenity-hime scowled and stormed out of the room, running to get Pluto.Serenity-hime raced to her room, and slammed the door shut. " Puu-chan?! ", she called staring at the ceiling. " Hai, hime?", asked the mysterious Senshi popping out of a portal. " How can I get the engagement off?", Serenity-hime demanded, pacing around the room. " Well..... It is true that your Okassan, can't sop the wedding without good reason,but.", Pluto started. Serenity-hime groaned and flopped in the nearby chair." But.", Pluto continued. " But what?", asked Serenity-hime jumping out of the chair. " Maybe we can convince her that the ooji is unfit to be your fiancé', and therefore call off the wedding.", Pluto said a mischievous gleam in her eye. Serenity-hime nodded a small smirk gracing her face.
~ Time speeds up till 2 days later ~
" All hail the Ooji no Chikyuu!", the squire called out. The ooji stepped of the into the ballroom arrogantly. Just as he was halfway down the isle a 'reporter', with green hair and garnet eyes asked for a picture. Unknown to to him a magic force untied his boot laces, and the same force tied the boot laces together. As he started to move again he fell face down to the ground.He was left in a very compromising position, for someone to kick him in the rear. The humiliated ooji flipped over and looked at his shoes. The laces were tied together by magic. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the throne to see a smirking Hime looking right at him.
TIME SPEEDS UP TO DINNER THE NEXT DAY.
The Ooji yet again walked into the dining hall arrogantly. Serenity -hime scowled at the egotistical, Ooji before her. Endymion was seated next to the hime, who was extremely displeased that she had to be so close to the bakayaro.As speeches were made and dinner was served. A sandy-blonde hared 'boy' , with blue eyes served the ooji. As the platter was set down, The 'servant' took the lid off of it. When the ooji saw what it was he jumped out of his chair, screaming, slamming the lid back on it in the process. The dish was made out of a human skull with maggots, crawling in and out of it.Selenity-sama, jumped out of her chair demanding to know what the uproar was. "It's a- a -a-a s-skull.", stuttered Endymion, pointing to the dish. Selenity-sama made a mad dash for the platter and took off the lid. What she saw wasn't anything gross, but the ooji's favorite dish, chicken and rice. Selenity-sama got an angry look on her face, and faced the ooji. Endymion was stupefied, he looked at the platter and saw a delicious meal, and a VERY angry Queen. Endymion, glanced at Serenity-hime to see her smirking at him the same way as before, then he looked back at the Queen who was pointing out of the room.Endymion walked out of the room with as much dignity as he could muster, and was followed by an irate Selenity-sama.
END FLASHBACK
MY P.O.V.
"What do you mean.....", Serenity trailed off, wondering what she could know that would cause a big enough mess as it did in the past." The Golden Crystal no longer resides in Mamoru-san.", Pluto stated the gleam in her eye shining brighter than a star. Then Serenity got it. Pluto was talking about Trunks, and her self.
" Where is it?", demanded Haruka, slightly pissed off. "Well it's in-", Pluto started, but was cut off by Serenity. " Iie.", she stated a dangerous tone in her voice.
"But-.",started Pluto.
"Don't you even dare Sailor Pluto.", Serenity stated calmly, rising from her seat.
"They should-",Started Pluto once more, wincing inwardly at her hime's tone.
"As time guardian, you should know DAMN WELL what would happen!,I forbid it,"Serenity yelled at Pluto, pulling rank.
" Fine.", Pluto grumbled, tapping her staff on the ground. I cloud of smoke appeared behind Pluto, and molded to the form of a chair. Pluto sat down and frowned. Serenity inwardly groaned, she knew the time guardian didn't do social calls, and discussing her love life was definitely social. " What happened now, Puu-chan?", Serenity asked warily. " The Inners remember.", Pluto sighed. " And thats a bad thing how....?", Serenity prodded. " Rei-san punched out Mamoru-san.", Pluto replied smirking slightly. Haruka dropped her fork and let out a snort. Hotaru winced and smiled. Serenity started snorting, trying to hold in her laughter.Suddenly she burst out laughing holding her stomach. " Rei no baka actually h-hit Mamo-baka?", Serenity stuttered out still laughing. Suddenly she stopped laughing and narrowed her eyes. This business was still too social, Pluto's expression was far to serious for it to be trivial.
" What's going on, Pluto?",Serenity asked suspiciously. " The owner of the crystal needs at least a years worth of training, and battle tactics, but we don't have the time. You and the owner will need to go to Kami's lookout and use the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.", Pluto stated rubbing her temples. Serenity nodded her head in agreement. "Trunks-san, Serenity-hime needs to keep her training up. You will go with her.", Pluto stated solemnly, although if you looked hard enough you could see a twinkle in the time guardian's eye." NANI?!?!", barked Vegeta. " My sentiments exactly.", Haruka growled giving Trunks the evil eye.Trunks shrank back in his chair. "Vegeta-san should go in with her!", Haruka stated furiously. "Onna, she is the only one worth my time to spar with! Besides the human who holds that damned crystal is probably to pathetic to be bothered with!", Vegeta ranted. Serenity was covering up snickers, at her friends actions. " When do we leave?", Trunks asked warily, completely aware of the glares he was recieving. "You must go in the chamber at 1:45 today.," Pluto said standing up. " You can't be serious Setsuna!", Haruka yelled out. " I am serious Haruka, time is being disturbed, we don't have the time to argue.", Pluto stated firmly. Haruka sighed in defeat, Setsuna was in one of her moods, and it wasn't good to cross her. " Onna that pathetic human can train here!", Vegeta interrupted putting in a last effort. Pluto glared at him and, tapped her staff on the ground, and the smoke chair disappeared. "Ooji Vegeta, I mean no disrespect, but you shouldn't worry about Serenity-hime, if an enemy attacks, you will be needed here to watch your son.", Pluto stated cryptically. Vegeta paled slightly and leaned back in his seat. "Sets-chan, what's going to happen?", asked Bulma worriedly, glancing between her two sons and husband. "Nothing yet B-chan, only time will tell.", Pluto said softly creating a portal. " Ja, Puu-chan!", Serenity called." Ja Minna-san.", Pluto replied stepping through the portal.
"So, Serenity-san who DOES have the crystal?", Goku asked scratching his head. Serenity frowned and ChiChi whipped out her frying pan. She whapped Goku with it mumbling," Baka." Serenity shook her head at the pair, and returned to her seat. " Um, Minna-chan?", Bulma interrupted waving her hand in the air. Everyone stopped what they were doing to glance at the her. " I have two announcements to make.", Bulma started. " Well , what are they Onna!?" , Vegeta demanded. " Well number one school starts next week, and I've enrolled Serenity-chan, and Hotaru-chan.", Bulma stated nervously." And Haruka your a student teacher in music, and Drivers Ed. class.", she continued. "NANI?!?!", exclaimed Serenity. "Kuso.", muttered Hotaru. "Watch it Hota-chan, If Michiriu were here you'd be grounded.", Haruka warned. Hotaru gave Haruka an evil glare."What are my classes?", Serenity asked placing her forehead on the cold wood table. " You've got the same as Trunks.", Bulma started," And Hotaru yours are the same as Gohan's." Hotaru nodded sullenly, and Serenity grunted in response. " All right.", Haruka stated smiling slightly." Oh, yeah you would smile, you LIKE what you're doing.", Serenity grumbled, glaring at Haruka.
" What's the other thing?", Gohan asked interrupting, the two. " Well the next thing is ......... We'rehavingaformalpartyheretomorowateightocklock,andyou'veallgottabe there.", Bulma said very quickly. " Excuse me?",asked Kuririn. Trunks groaned and put his head in his hands," I'm not going Kassan, I hate those things." " What did she just say?", Serenity asked poking him in the ribs. "There's a formal party tomorrow, for a bunch of other snotty companies,that want me to marry their daughters, and she wants us all to go so she won't get bored.", Trunks translated. "Do we have to wear dresses?", asked Serenity narrowing her eyes. Bulma nodded in agreement. " Nope, I'm not going, I can't spar in a dress, Hell I can't even run!", Serenity stated firmly.Vegeta snorted knowing it was useless to fight his mate."Bulma-chan, Gomen but Goku, Gohan , Goten and I are going to the Kami house.", ChiChi stated regretfully."18 and I have something to do tomorrow.", Kuririn told her blushing slightly. Bulma nodded " Well, Trunks your definitely going, you'll have to run C.C. all by yourself someday.", Bulma said cheerfully, Trunks groaned. " And Serenity your going too, Infact Trunks should be your escort." , she continued, smiling slyly." Iie.", Serenity stated coldly.
{Hai, you are. You and Trunks thought I'd send Vegeta after you, I just came myself. What a Kawaii couple you two make.}, Bulma told Serenity in private thought speech.{ Don't you dare say a word. Vegeta will kill him, I'm still not going.}, Serenity replied privatly. {Maybe I should tell them Trunks has the crystal?}, Bulma stated smirking.Serenity's eyes flashed.{How do you know?}, Serenity demanded, her eyes flashing dangerously. Which by the way didn't go unnoticed by the others, along with all the other facial expressions the two were exchanging. It looked like Bulma was having the time of her life, and Serenity was going to kill her for it." Does anyone else feel like we're being left out of a conversation?", Gohan asked eyeing the two. Most of them nodded."Kassan's tricking her into going,", Trunks pointed out.{I did do research in school you know, The Golden Crystal belongs to the kobito of Serenity. And I'm assuming since Trunks and yourself are together, he got the Golden Crystal right?Can I tell ChiChi?}, Bulma explained and asked smugly. {Hai, but only if she doesen't say a word.}, Serenity stated defeatedly. { So maybe I should tell Haruka and Vegeta of your exploits this morning, and your going to be ALONE with him for a year.}, Bulma stated slyly.
" Iie, don't you dare, Bulma!", Serenity yelled her eyes growing wide, and her eyes flashing silver.She had been scraping a long nail on the table peeling up strips of wood. "Well, then?", Bulma asked smirking like her husband. " Fine.", growled Serenity giving Bulma a death glare that would have made grown men cry. Serenity's eyes flashed silver again and suddenly her nails grew to impossible length, and sliced THROUGH the table. Gohan tensed up, and prepared to power up.He was caught off guard when Bulma chuckled,"Senshi's honor." "If Koneko's going we should too", Haruka interjected," besides something tells me she just got blackmailed.", she continued chuckling.
Serenity glanced at her watch it was 1:40pm. "Kuso, Bulma take Haruka and Hotaru shopping,they can't design clothes like I can, now we've got to go. If we're late Pluto will have my head.", Serenity said standing up. " Chibi-Trunks, make sure you carry that thing I gave to you at all times, and keep your shield up always.", she continued hugging the smaller boy. "Ja ne Minna," Trunks stated standing up, and being glomped by Bulma in the process.Suddenly Shiro appeared and sat next to Serenity." You know what to do. If something desprate happens, transport both of yourselves to me immediately.", Serenity stated seriously. ~Hai, hime-chan good luck~the wolf stated walking to Chibi-Trunks and sitting infront of him.
" I still can't get used to that talking animal.", Kuririn muttered. " Oh, Oneagi Kuririn-koi what about Puar, and the rest of them at Master Roshi's.", 18 pointed out." Yeah, well they won't tear me apart with one command!", Kuririn muttered eyeing Shiro " Sayoonara!", Serenity started, " Oh, and Bulma if you value your living existence not one word!", she finished glaring at Bulma who started laughing. " See ya Koneko,", Haruka said smiling at Serenity then scowling at Trunks. " Haruka, Knock it off.", Serenity scolded. Vegeta waved two fingers and glared at his son." Vegeta-san, you too.", Serenity stated, placing a hand on Trunks' shoulder. " Trunks-kun, picture where we're going, I don't have a clue,and if we end up on the Moon it's your fault.", Serenity warned. Trunks pictured Kami's lookout and the picture flashed in Serenity's mind. Serenity closed her eyes and a silver glow surrounded them both. Serenity mumbled the words, and in a flash they were gone." Be careful Serenity-hime.", whispered Hotaru who was on her way out of the room.
This is the end of the 9th chapter! Woo-hoo It's like 42 Pages long! My longest chapter yet. I was wondering if I should make the Inners good again. Lemme know in a vote. Maybe if ya'll are nice I'll give you all some bonus romance between two people, other than Trunks/Usa . See if you can guess who it is?
Hey everybody read Ms. T 's fic! Thanx to all you wonderful people who reviewed, and said nice things. I love you all! Boo-hoo school starts again in three weeks. I hope you all enjoyed this!

Hi , Minna-san ! I'm good to go ! Cram School sucks , in Gym they make you run 2 miles ! My feet are sooooooo sore! Oh well life goes on!. I forgot to mention that time varies and I mean varies between S/M Dimension and DBZ. Time could slow down or go super fast whenever it wants. Also when Hotaru transforms she gets older and more serious.When she detransforms she go's back to her normal age. I am proud to announce that I ,SerenityMoon, am starting a webpage. Of course it'll be Crossover fics only . ( With a few exceptions !! ) I was wondering If I could borrow a few fics from people until I can get up enough of my own. If I can use your fic I will give the person FULL credit for their work. Thank you!

LAST TIME .......................... DBZ DIMENSION !
Once again the night was silent. I guess I must have gotten through to him. Or at least confused the hell out of him. Either answer worked for me. " I think we should get some rest " , I told Trunks softly. Trunks nodded curtly at me and turned slowly towards the door. He opened it for me , then just as I was about to enter he put a hand on my shoulder. " Just be careful ." , He said sighing. I nodded at him , and walked into the house .
______________________________________________________________________________
TIME GATES ............... PLUTO POV (A/N: obviously )
I sighed as I opened one dimension after another , looking for the evil. I couldn't even find a youma anywhere. I gripped my Time Staff tighter as I felt something entering Serenity-hime's world. Again. I concentrated on going there to help save the Senshi , and a dark purple glow surrounded me. In a second I was transported into the middle of the battle.
MICHIRIU 'S POV
Music. I loved it , Lived with it , breathed with it. The slow sad notes slipped from my instrument like water. Oh , how I wished Ruka-chan were there, sitting at the piano playing with me. But we had a duty , a mission , and a friend. Haruka would never leave Usa-chan for anything. Just as I would do in her situation.
All of the sudden I felt the sea churning. There was a youma !At..... At ...... Where?!? I concentrated and tried to lock onto it's location. When I finally got it I screamed for Artemis and Luna. They came rushing in the room already transformed. " Where is it?", asked Crescent. " The Crown Game Center." , I replied stonily. I silently transformed and held hands with Crescent and Kamen.
" NEPTUNE TELEPORT !!!!!!!!!"
______________________________________________________________________________
DBZ DIMENSION ........................... SERENITY'S POV.
I was abruptly dragged from my peaceful dreaming when my watch started beeping. Stretching I turned it off and got out of bed. It was 3:30 and the moon was still high in the sky.Sleepily I walked to the bathroom and concentrated my clothes off.I jumped into a *shiver* cold shower and thought about the past weeks events.
I was sure that everyone was probably very confused.I respect Gohan but I really don't trust him at all , let alone Piccolo.From what I heard from Little One, Chi-Chi was married to Goku. Then Goten and Gohan were their children. I thought about Little One , he was nothing like his older counterpart. Then again I act nothing like my former self. I already knew basically who belonged to who by their ki's. But it didn't hurt to have a little confirmation.
Realizing it was almost time to meet Vegeta I hopped out of the shower and raised my ki ever so slightly to dry my hair. I checked everyone else's ki and was relieved to see they were all still sleeping.All except Vegeta, he was outside already.' Kuso ' I swore mentally , careful not to open the link between the Senshi and I. I concentrated some normal clothes on and teleported outside.
I appeared infront of Vegeta only seconds later. He smirked, " It's about time chibi-onna ". I raised my eyebrow in question to the nickname. He ignored it and flew in the air. " Let's see what you've got", he called down to me. Keeping my ki as low as possible I transformed into my gi , with my hair braided , and jumped into the air after him. He nodded to me and took off in the direction of the forest. We flew through the air for around half an hour when he saw a clearing infront of him and landed. " Spar. ", he mumbled at me , and the tone of his voice said no question's asked. I landed on the ground across from him and got into a fighting stance. " Hand to hand combat , no ki blasts , no flying .", Vegeta told me slowly and deliberately.
The wind around us swirled in anticipation of what was to come. It blew a few stray wisps of hair in my face as it caressed my skin. All of the sudden the air started to get dense and heavy. I looked at Vegeta to see him powering up. He was flickering back and fourth from having ebony hair and eyes to turquoise eyes and blond hair. I held back the urge to gasp, I remembered seeing him like this before but only for split second power bursts , but I had never seen the actual power up. He was changing infront of my very eyes, then I felt his power level surge.Quickly I threw a shield around us , so that our ki's were hidden. The once soft breeze was now blowing forcefully and if I were 'normal' I would have probably been disintegrated by the sheer power of his energy wave. I guess Vegeta noticed my stare because he tilted his head to the side and asked , " Haven't you ever been Super Sayjin before ?" I shook my head no. " It's a power up only a sayjin can have ", he stated with his ego coming into place. I narrowed my eyes. His ego and arrogance would be his downfall. While we were training together I would quickly change that. I guess Vegeta ended his power up because I saw a lazy punch thrown at me. I dodged his attack and did a round house to his face.
Quickly our battle was underway.
______________________________________________________________________________
S/M DIMENSION .......................... NEPTUNE ' S POV
We hid in the shadows of the trees while we watched the Inners take on our latest youma. This one was far more ugly than any I'd ever seen. I saw Mercury with a deep gash on her stomach typing furiously on her computer. Mars was in vain trying to hurt the youma. The youma was like a werewolf , but it had insanely long hair , was extremely powerful , and was overly fast. It had a pearcing howl that made any mind it was directed at go numb. I was visually scanning for a weakness. It seemed to be shielding it's tail ............ That was it! It's tail! " Crescent ?", I whispered. " Hmmmm? ", she asked me her eyes still on the youma. " Use your Tiara to cut off it's tail " I told her. She nodded and whispered:
"Crescent Tiara Action ! "
The circular disk was thrown with deadly precision , neatly splicing off it's tail.
" AAAAHHHHHHRRRRRRAAAAAAAGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!! ", the youma screamed in pain blasting Venus and Jupiter into a wall. " It's now or never Crescent ", whispered a voice behind us. Pluto was leaning on her staff looking at Crescent. " I'll help ", she stated in her own way. I watched the two jump out of the tree and land behind the youma. Together they called:
"CRESCENT / PLUTO............. "
Power swirled around the duo, creating a spectacular sight.
" BEAM / DEADLY.............."
Right then and there I pitied the youma. It didn't even have a chance to scream.
" ANNIHILATION / SCREAM !!!!!! "
The two finished the attack with a bang. I looked away not wanting to see the carnage. As usual the leftover energy from Crescent's attack healed the fallen Senshi. Once all of them were standing Pluto disappeared into a portal , Kamen and I jumped out of the tree to land next to Crescent when something grabbed me from behind.
______________________________________________________________________________
DBZ DIMENSION ..................... TRUNKS POV
' Ugh ', I groaned in my head. ' Why am so tired ?' , I asked myself. Then remembered my late night talk. I glanced at my alarm clock and read the time. I nearly fainted when I realized how late it was. It was nearly 10:30! I raced into the shower room and stripped of my clothing as quickly as possible. ( A/N : Yummy! * drools * )
As soon as I finished with my shower I raised my ki to dry my hair , and then got dressed. I raced out my door and down the hall. As I was about to pass Serenity's room I suddenly stopped. She was training with Tousan right? So, she should be home by now. Cautiously I opened the door to her room , and felt for her ki. She wasn't there. I opened the door all the way. I gasped. The room was nothing like it had been before. There was a skylight (closed) , and the entire room was utterly breath taking. I was so absorbed in the room I didn't notice the small ki creeping up behind me." What'cha doin' ", asked Chibi-Trunks . I jumped ,turned around and slammed the door shut. " N...n. Nothing ", I stuttered. " Where's Tenshi ?", he asked me innocently, " Kassan said she didn't know where she was and to ask you." I glanced down at my counter part. Kids just had to be soooo innocent when they're young. " She's out training ", I replied alot more calmly then I felt. Chibi-Trunk's eyes drooped. " Awww I wanted her to come play with me , ", he whined pitifully. I raised my eyebrow , " What about Goten?". " Goten's mean to me , he teases me cuz the youma beat me up" , he replied walking away. " Tenshi never teases me about that ", he muttered , along with other things like ' baka Goten ' , and ' not fair '.
I shook my head and stifled the urge to laugh. It seemed Serenity brought out the best in some , and the worst in others. While musing with Chibi-Trunk's plight in my head , I headed downstairs. I took the elevator and saw Hotaru reading a book on the couch. Haruka was no where to be found. I walked from room to room till I got to the kitchen. Kassan was humming to herself and cooking what seemed like brunch. ChiChi was washing dishes next to her. " Ohayoo Kassan , ChiChi-san ", I called out loudly, effectively startling them. Senshi or not kassan still couldn't sense ki's yet. " Trunks ", Kassan said in a slightly annoyed voice. " Did you really need to announce your presence like that?!" , she demanded , hand on hip. I gulped and backed away , it was not a good idea to get Kassan annoyed when she's angry. I caught ChiChi's eye and saw her just as irritated as Kassan. " Gomen , Kassan , Gomen ChiChi-san, Gomen , Gomen , Gomen ! ", I apologized profusely. Kassan's face softened and she nodded to ChiChi who finished drying the dish and put it away. " So, Trunks do you know where Vegeta and Serenity-san are? ", asked Kassan." Um, Training.", I stated nervously. ChiChi rolled her eyes. " Of course VEGETA'S training, that's all he does , but where's Serenity-san ?", she asked me. " She's --- ", I started to answer when Gohan , Goten , and Goku came in with torn clothes and small scratches. " Hey , Sleeping beauty finally decided to wake up ?", Gohan asked me with a classic 'Son Smile' on his face. I growled and was about to retort when Kassan interrupted. " Now, Where's Serenity?", she asked. " She's Training , " I hesitated for a moment then continued , " With Tousan."
Kassan's jaw dropped and she blinked. " Are you sure?", asked Gohan. Already frustrated with him, I blurted out whatever answer came to mind. " Of course I'm sure , she just told me last night ...... " , I trailed off realizing my mistake.I was in for it now. Kassan's shocked look got even more shocked , and ChiChi asked, " Last What?!?!" I felt heat rise to my face. " Night ", I mumbled. I decided it was time to clear my name. " All we did was talk and explain certain things, such as how there ' s two of me." The color visibly returned back to Kassan's, and ChiChi 's faces. Then as if the reality of Vegeta training with Serenity sunk in Kassan spoke.
" What in Kami-sama's name does she think she's doing! He'll kill her ! I swear in the name of Mercury if he hurts her, I'll kill him! ", Kassan ranted. " I know, I know", I sighed. " Well then why didn't you try to stop her! ", ChiChi said glaring at me. " Relax ChiChi , Relax ", Goku tried to reassure his wife. " Vegeta-sama won't hurt her ", came a voice from the doorway. I turned to see Setsuna in her fuku. " How do you know?", asked Gohan still wary of this Senshi. " They don't call her the Guardian of Time for nothing you know", stated a voice coming from the back door way. Everyone turned to see Serenity ( in normal clothes hair down) and Tousan standing in the doorway, perfectly fine.It was strange I hadn't even felt their ki coming. " Why would I hurt the chibi-onna anyway", Tousan said with a snort. Everyone, but Setsuna gaped at them.
After a moment of silence , Hurricane ' Chibi-Trunks ' , dashed in the room, nearly knocking Setsuna over in the process. " Tenshi,Tenshi, Tenshi,Tenshi ", he muttered, stopping to glance around the kitchen full of people. All of the sudden he spotted Serenity. "TENSHI!",he yelled dodging Gohan only to glomp Serenity. For a second Serenity was quiet then she smiled , stooping down to his level. " If I'm right, Little One, I think your happy to see me,ne?", she asked Chibi-Trunks. " Yup!", he said. All of the sudden a crescent insignia burst to life on his forehead blinding everyone within range for around 30 seconds. When the light cleared I saw Serenity and Chibi-Trunks both having their insignia's. " I have GOT to teach you how to control that ", Serenity said frowning. Chibi-Trunks laughed gleefully. Tousan rolled his eyes and muttered , "weak baka's". Apparently Serenity heard him because she stood up straight and faced him with a deadly gleam in her eye. " Who in Selene's name are you calling weak?", Serenity asked frostily. " Uh-Oh", Chibi-Trunks gasped racing behind Kassan. Tousan said nothing but nodded to her. " I wouldn't call Serenity-hime weak if I were you", said someone from next to Setsuna. I turned to see Hotaru standing next to Setsuna, leaning against the wall." Unless you have a death wish", stated Haruka who I just noticed behind her.
The room once again fell into utter silence, with Serenity and Tousan glaring at each other. Kassan was looking worriedly between the two when she finally stated, " Is anyone hungry, we're eating out on the patio, Kuririn and 18 are setting up". Tousan,Goku,Gohan,Goten,ChiChi,and myself shuffled out the back door to get ready for Lunch.
SERENITY 'S POV
As soon as the men and ChiChi left , I turned to Bulma and said, " Vegeta-san gets on my NERVES!". Bulma sighed and said," I know the feeling." I turned to Setsuna and said, " So what brings you here Pluto?" She smiled and replied," I just wanted to let you know that everything at the Gates is in order, and your Dimension is fine",she continued, " Although I may not return for awhile, because the youma are quite strong". I nodded at Setsuna. " How have you been Sets-chan?", Bulma interjected. " I've been fine, B-chan , I've died occasionally , but thanks to Serenity-hime here I still live to see tomorrow. Although I do get perpetually bored at times, therefore I checked up on you.", answered Setsuna in a rush with a gleam in her eye, expecting a rash response from her friend. Bulma raised an eyebrow, " You've been spying on me?I don't bel---". I cut her off. " Bulma-san , This might be news to you , but Setsuna-san is SUPPOSED to spy on people. That's how being time guardian works.", I told her in slight monotone. " Ohhhhh ", said Bulma.
" Now if you'll excuse me hime, I must depart.", Setsuna said creating a portal. " Setsuna !,", I called. " Hai?", she replied. " If your ever in trouble don't hesitate to call us , We'll come." , I finished. " Thank-you hime , Ja ne Minna-chan!" , she called disappearing through the portal. Bulma smiled at the place where Setsuna had been, then turned back towards finishing 4 HUGE pots of stew. I felt Little One's ki behind Bulma , so I walked behind her and caught him trying to sneak some frosting off one of the MANY pans of brownies." Hey!", I told him in a ' stern ' tone. He immediately dropped his hand and hung his head." Gomen, Tenshi.", he muttered quietly. I couldn't help it, the look on his face, it was hilarious! I burst out in peals of laughter. Bulma turned around perplexed and asked," What?" " The.... L-Look On.......... his f-face was ..... p-priceless!", I managed to stutter out. Chibi-Trunks was now pouting at me, with his arms crossed, looking much like Vegeta. With a last chuckle , I turned to Bulma . " Bulma-san, I was wondering if you would be available tonight. Hotaru-chan , Haruka-chan, and I are all going to train, and we think it's a good idea for you to come along." , I finished"Let's see....", Bulma trailed off tapping her chin. " I don't think I have any thing to do , so sure .What time?", she asked me. " 6:30.", I answered. She nodded her head and turned off the burner. " Demo, shouldn't Chibi-Trunks come too?", Hotaru asked me. " Iie , I can correct his moonbeam problem very easily", I replied.
After helping Bulma fix the food on the kitchen table, Bulma started to take it out. " Wait, Bulma-san, why don't you let us take it out", piped up Hotaru. Bulma nodded", If your sure you can handle it". " Hai , we can ,", answered Haruka.
With that said Bulma walked out. Chibi-Trunks, however, was still hovering behind me. " Hai, Little One", I asked , turning around. " Well I a .... was ..... a wondering if you would p-play with me after Lunch", he asked in a rush. I pondered for a moment, Chibi-Trunks was a kawaii kid , and he was nice to be around , so I said, "Sure." He looked at me with wide eyes then said, " Arigatoo!", and rushed out of the room.
" Well ", started Haruka,"You certainly have a way with him." I gave her a brief smile then , concentrated on the vast amounts of food before me. The food turned into silver particles then sucked into my outstretched hand. " Let's go.", I stated curtly and walked out.
TRUNKS POV ( A few minutes earlier)
Tousan, Goku, ChiChi, Goten , Gohan, and I walked outside to see Kuririn and 18 putting the finishing touches on the table. " Hey guys", Kuririn said to us. " Ohayoo", I said then sat down. There was silence for a moment. " So, Vegeta how was your training with Serenity-san?", Goku asked. " None of your business Kakarott!", Tousan growled. " Awww, Come on Vegeta, tell us", Goku persisted.
" Fine!", Tousan muttered under his breath. " Soooo, What happened?", Kuririn asked. " It only proved that if trained correctly, she will be the strongest Sa-", Tousan started, but was cut of by Kassan. " Gomen , Lunch is late, but there are more people to cook for.", she said. " Well, Onna where is it?", asked Tousan. Kassan rolled her eyes, " Serenity-san, Hotaru-chan, Haruka-chan, and Chibi-Trunks offered to bring it out.", Kassan said .
A few minutes later the quartet came out of the house, carrying nothing. " Chibi-Onna, where is my food?!?", Tousan half asked half screamed. Serenity smirked but said nothing. Hotaru,Haruka, and Chibi-Trunks sat down on the other side of Bulma, leaving an empty space between Chibi-Trunks and I. " So, is Veggie-chan hungry.", Serenity asked very sweetly. Chibi-Trunks was trying not to laugh and was failing miserably. Kassan was covering her mouth to hide her grin. " You can have what you want ............. if you take back what you said about me being weak.", Serenity stated dangerously low. *Humph* " Never.", smirked Tousan. " So be it", Serenity stated raising her arm , her palm pointed towards us. Kuririn and Gohan tensed. Slowly silver dust began to seep out of her hand. The more dust that flew out the faster it came out. Soon the dust settled onto our plates to form the food Kassan had been cooking.
Everyone looked to be in shock. " How d-did ... you....", sputtered Gohan. " It's magic , Gohan-san , Magic.", Haruka said. I looked next to me to see Tousan fuming. His plate was empty as was Serenity's. " Let's spar Vegeta-sama.", said Serenity.Tousan nodded. Everyone stopped eating to watch them. They started off with a series of kicks and punches with Tousan not being SSJ, and Serenity not even in her trademark gi. Serenity had the same fighting style as Tousan. She was the only one I'd ever seen fight like that. I learned to fight from Gohan, therefore I fought like Gohan. Every punch he threw, she caught and vise versa. Then they took to the sky. Out of nowhere Serenity put her hands in a praying position and shouted:
"AQUA TORRENT ILLUSION!!!!!!!!"
A huge blast of water came from her hands, and hit Tousan directly. It pushed Tousan to the ground soaking him. " Give-up Vegeta-'sama'?", asked Serenity, not even breaking a sweat. She let up with her attack, and revealed a soaking wet FLAT hared Tousan. Over at the patio we burst into laughter.Tousan quickly shook his head back and fourth causing his hair to stand up once more. Serenity and Tousan came to sit down again. Serenity waved her hand and food appeared on both their plates.
" Am I still weak Vegeta-sama ?", asked Serenity once Tousan paused in eating. " Baka Chibi-Onna", he mumbled. Serenity raised her eyebrow and said, " I think I'll take that as a complement." I snorted and shook my head. Serenity and Tousan were quite a riot.
Yet, It nagged at me as to how Serenity had some kind of connection with Tousan. It was kind of like they were best friends. Well as close as Tousan could get to calling someone a friend. During their little 'spar' earlier Tousan didn't even turn SSJ, nor try to beat her to a bloody pulp, like he does with anyone else. To me it seemed as if they had known each other forever.But that wasn't possible . I looked at Tousan to see him talking with Serenity in an ALMOST civilized manner. Glancing at Serenity , I saw her beautiful eyes with a deadly glint to them. Her rosy red lips were curled into a smirk. Her rosy red beautiful lips .............
I mentally slapped myself. There was an enemy approaching and I was thinking such..such..... such beautiful thoughts.......... For the second time in less than 5 seconds I mentally slapped myself once more. Even though I was only half done with my food, I decided to go take a walk. " Excuse me Minna-san, but I'm going to take a walk", I proclaimed to the table. With that I threw my napkin down on the table , and walked away.
SERENITY'S POV ( A few Minutes earlier )
"Am I still weak , Vegeta-sama?", I asked him while he had taken a pause from eating , to get a drink." Baka Chibi-Onna ", he mumbled at me. I knew he really didn't mean I was 'weak' , but it was still a good laugh anyway. After all I was the daughter of the most respected say-jin in history, and as a say-jin I had my honor and pride. Just not a huge ego. "We will train tomorrow,ne?", I asked him.
" Of course , Chibi-Onna.", he smirked. Suddenly his smirk disappeared and his brow furrowed. " Daijoubu ka?", asked Bulma concerned. Briefly he nodded to his mate, his eyes softening at her worried face. " Digadid youdigo evedagager ledagadern todagoo spedidigeak Saidagadugadin-gadago, Serenity-hime( Did you ever learn to speak Sayjigo, Serenity-hime)", Vegeta asked me. I frowned, that language was so familiar to me.
*FLASHBACK*
A four year old Princess Serenity ran down the halls running away from the Queen of Mercury." Serenity-hime ! Slow down , you must stop and learn Lunago! ", she called after her. " Nadago!(No!) ", the little girl screamed not looking where she was going. WHAM!!! "Itai", said Princess Serenity picking herself up, and noticing the long flowing white gown, belonging to the person she ran in to. " Kassan!", she cried and glomped Queen Serenity's legs." Oh, sure she'll use regular language for you .," groaned Queen Mercury. With a chuckle the queen reached down to pick up her musume. " What's the trouble Aquariann-chan", she asked the Queen of Mercury. " Your musume , won't study Lunago, she will only speak Sayjigo.", huffed Aquariann. " She will grow out of it", smiled Queen Serenity.
* FLASHBACK END *
" Hadagadi , Vegeta-san, Idigi remembadager spedidigeaking idigit, odagon thedaga Moodugoon ( Hai, Vegeta-san, I remember speaking it on the Moon .)", I replied somewhat confused. " Why , did you want to know?", I asked. " Speaking Sayjigo is a privilege that any child with sayjin blood should be able to do, if they practice it over the years. Because of your Lunarian Blood I wondered how much your Say-jin Blood was affected.", replied Vegeta. All the sudden Trunks threw down his napkin and announced he was going for a walk. His food wasn't even half gone. I raised my eyebrow, He was a Sayjin, he should have eaten it all and then some. I looked over at Bulma and noticed her once again worried face. I opened the Senshi's Telepathic link. { Bulma-san is there something wrong with Trunks-san?} I asked. { I don't know Serenity-san, although he does seem troubled. And for the last time call me Bulma-CHAN, It's chan or Nothing.} , she answered. { Hai, Bulma-chan }, I replied. { Should someone go after him?}, interjected Hotaru. { I think so , how about it Koneko-chan?}, Agreed Haruka. { Why me ?}, I asked. { Because.}, said Hotaru. { All right Hota-chan .}, I finally agreed. Cutting the Link I stood up from the table. " Fine you guys. Be back in a flash!", I said confusing the non-Senshi. I whispered :Moon Teleport and was gone.
MY POV ( Bwahahahaha)
"Say What?", asked a highly confused Kuririn. " Got me ", replied Gohan. " Where did the Chibi-Onna go, Onna", demanded Vegeta. " She went to go look for Trunks-chan, Tousan, ", replied Chibi-Trunks. " Nande?!, How did you know?", asked Haruka quite loudly. " Cuz you, Kassan, Hotaru-san, and Tenshi were all talkin' about it just a second ago.", he replied. " Chibi-Trunks, no one said a word about going after Trunks, I think you're going crazy", stated Goten. " Actually, we WERE Talking about it ", interjected Hotaru. " NANI?!?! ", cried Kuririn, Gohan, Goku, ChiChi, and Goten." It's a little thing called Telepathy, and as long as Chibi-Trunks harbors some of Serenity-hime's energy he has some of the same powers she does. We were discussing why he left, and the fact that he seemed troubled, so we sent Serenity after him. Chibi-Trunks must have unconsciously tapped into our Link.", finished Hotaru. The table stared blankly at Hotaru. " Do you mind saying that again, but slower," , Interjected 18. The Senshi sweat dropped.
S/M DIMENSION_________________________________________________________
MICHIRIU'S POV
Just as I was about too kick who ever grabbed me I found the end of a spiked cane at my throat. " Let me go", I glared at Tuxedo Mask. He ignored me. Behind him I saw Sailor Mars looking at him with utter shock. Jupiter, Venus, and even the normally quiet Mercury were no better. " Where is the Princess?", he growled at me. " I will NEVER tell you as long as I live", I spat out at him. I couldn't see Crescent and Kamen, but I could guess they were pissed. " Is that so.", he sneered at me,slowly piercing my skin with the blade.....
DBZ DIMENSION______________________________________________________________
SERENITY'S POV
I appeared in a beautiful clearing. I looked around for a moment until I spotted Trunks leaning against a tree his eyes closed. A wind blew blowing his hair in his face slightly. The wind blew again blowing sakura blossoms threw the air. I walked up to Trunks until I was about 2-feet away from him." Hey.", I called softly, not really wanting to disturb him. His eyes snapped open, and he looked at me. I met his ice blue eyes and saw confusion, hurt, shock, questions, and millions of other things I couldn't identify. He nodded to me after a few moments. " O genki desu ka", I asked him stepping slightly closer. " Hai, and Iie",he replied." How s------", I started, but my words were cut off by intense pain ripping threw me. I dropped to my knees and cried out holding my head. I was dimly aware of Trunks holding me upright. " Serenity, What's wrong?!?!", he demanded clutching me to himself to keep me from falling down. " Neptune....", I murmured. " Neptune!!!", I cried loudly. " Nani?", he asked as I started glowing silver. I let images seep threw us of what was happening to Neptune. I narrowed my eyes, that Onore.
"Moon Teleport....", I whispered teleporting Trunks with me back to C.C.
(WHEN SERENITY FIRST ARRIVED AT THE CLEARING TO FIND TRUNKS .........)
TRUNKS POV
I landed in a peaceful meadow to think. I sighed. Kassan would be worried about me, but I needed time to think.For I don't know how long I stood leaning against a tree, until I felt a faint ki approaching me. It stopped within 2-feet of me and whispered, " Hey". I snapped open my eyes to see Serenity standing infront of me. I could tell she was searching me eyes. I nodded to her and continued to stare."O genki desu ka?", she asked me, stepping slightly closer. I racked my brain for an answer.She was worried about me and didn't want to lie to her so I replied, " Hai, and Iie." " How s ------", she started , but she flinched and dropped to her knees. She cried out in intense pain. I went to her side as quickly as I could and held her upright. " Serenity , what's wrong?!?", I demanded not using an hororific. " Neptune.... " , she murmured her voice laced in pain. " Neptune!!!", she cried loudly. I clutched her to me tightly to keep her from falling down.Out of no where a silver light surrounded her, it spread to me, and showed me an image. There was a girl with Aquamarine hair being held by a man in a mask. He had a blade at her throat and would surely slice it. I felt anger bubble in me at this man. He was attacking a woman, an innocent woman......... All of the sudden I heard Serenity call out:
" Moon Teleport.", In a flash of silver we were gone.
ABOUT THREE MINUTES BEFORE TRUNKS AND SERENITY ARRIVE AT C.C.
MY POV
" Haruka-papa please pass the salt", asked Hotaru. Just as the salt reached her fingertips she dropped it and screamed out in agony. " Hotaru-chan!!!!", screamed Haruka dashing out of her chair to help the girl. Chibi-Trunks stopped eating and held his head." Neptune ......... ", Hataru gasped, " Neptune........", she called screaming out in agony once more before passing out. " Oh good Kami-sama!" , yelled ChiChi and Bulma at the same time. Bulma ran to Chibi-Trunks to see if he was all right. He shook his head yes and pointed to Hotaru. " Weak Onna", smirked Vegeta. " What's going on", asked Gohan dropping to his knees beside her." Serenity-san and Trunks are coming in about 30 seconds", Goku interrupted. " Gohan-chan go take her inside, Goten-chan you help him ", ordered ChiChi. 18 and Kuririn followed Gohan and Goten without a word. " No ..... not Michiriu ........" , whispered Haruka.
In a flash of silver light behind Vegeta, Trunks and Serenity stood. Trunks had an arm wrapped around her waist keeping her upright. Serenity was holding her head in her hands. Trunks was flickering between going SSJ , his eyes burning in rage.Trunks whispered something in her ear, and she gave a weak smile. " Arigatoo", she whispered back to him. Serenity turned towards Haruka straightening her posture. " Don't worry , Ruka-chan, just take care of Hotaru", she said. Serenity turned her head to the sky and yelled, " PLUTO I KNOW YOU'RE WATCHING , GET DOWN HERE!!!!". A Madori portal appeared and a hand reached out of it motioning the two to come forward. " Iie, Koneko-chan stop!", screamed Haruka racing towards the portal. The duo stepped inside the portal, and Haruka reached it just as it closed. Haruka dropped to the ground and pounded on it creating a nice sized crater. " Nande Kuso!", ranted Vegeta.
TIME GATES_________________________________________________________________
" Princess, you must hurry or it will be too late.", ushered Pluto pushing them towards the portal that led to Serenity's dimension. " I'm going to kill that Onore", muttered Serenity just before going into the portal, not noticing herself leaning on Trunks. Trunks nodded in agreement not noticing him arm still draped about her waist.
S/M DIMENSION____________________________________________________________
MY POV
" I'll ask you once more, Neptune, Where's Serenity?!?!", Tuxedo Mask screamed at Sailor Neptune. The normally clam Neptune spat in his face glaring in defiance at him." You'll regret that , You forget that we are to become King and Queen.",he growled in her face.Neptune forced out a dry laugh," My princess would never marry you." He was just about to push the blade farther into her throat when a voice stopped him, and the moon slid behind the clouds.
" Becoming King was all you ever cared about wasn't it?", asked the icy voice. " Who are you?!", Tuxedo Mask asked gripping the cane tighter. " You should know me Mamo-chan.", the voice stated with a sweet sarcasm. Sailor Mars's eyes darted around looking for the owner of the voice. The only person who's ever called Mamoru-san ,Mamo-chan, was Usagi. " Usagi-chan !!!!!! ", yelled out Mars. " Chan? Isn't that a term of endearment?Yes it is. Don't call me it. Or Usagi, I. am. Serenity.", Serenity's voice was cold before, but now it was frozen solid. Out of nowhere a silver blast knocked Tuxedo Mask away from Neptune. Neptune fell to the ground choking up blood and holding her throat. The moon rose from behind the clouds.
10 feet to the left of Neptune stood two figures, the male obviously holding the female, and the female glaring daggers at the man on the ground. " Attacking an innocent woman", growled the man," shameful." " Who are you?!?", hollered Jupiter. " May I introduce Trunks ,Ooji no all Sayjins", Serenity cut in leaning heavily against the figure." Sayjin ooji ........ Kuso.", muttered Jupiter. At the words Sayjin Ooji Mercury was pale faced and scanning him for confirmation. " Usagi no baka what are you doing?!, It's your destiny to marry Mamoru!", Mars screamed. " Hai, I'll marry him and let the Onore kill my Senshi, I think not", Serenity retorted sarcastically stalking towards Neptune. Serenity kneeled infront of Neptune and placed a hand on her neck and arm. Serenity glowed silver and soon so did Neptune. Neptune felt the bruise on her arm from where Tuxedo Mask had grabbed her fade away. The pain in her throat soon ebbed away allowing her to breathe normally. Serenity took her hand off of Neptune's throat and helped her stand up. Quickly the iciness in her eyes faded a bit , and the Princess hugged Neptune.
Tuxedo Mask groaned a bit and stood up. " Usa-koi, why are you with that Kono yaro Sayjin.", he sneered at Trunks. Trunks glared at the man that had insulted him. With out a warning the air surrounding Trunks grew dense and in a flash of gold he turned SSJ. The Inner Senshi paled at the sheer power he was emitting. In a flash of silver Serenity powered up with her fighting gi intact. All the Sailor Senshi present gasped. Serenity's eyes flashed and glowed a dangerous silver as she ran at Tuxedo Mask with impossible speed. When she reached him she picked him up and slammed him into a tree, cutting of his air.
" Iiieeeee!!!!!!!!!", cried Mars thinking,' I'm mad at him for attacking Neptune, but she can't kill him!', " I won't let you do this!!!!!".
"MARS FLAME SNIPER!!!!", she cried.
" Iie!", cried Sailor Neptune trying to intercept the attack even if she knew she wasn't fast enough. In a golden flash Trunks was standing just inches away from Serenity and about a foot away from the arrow. He held out his hand to the attack, palm stretched forward and let it hit him. Creating a huge cloud of smoke around the trio. A wind blew the smoke out of the way and ........... Trunks stood there unharmed, not even a scratch on him. " NANI?!?", screeched Venus and Mercury at the same time. " No one ........ NO ONE hurts Serenity", Trunks said feeling a sudden wave of protectivness wash over him. Crescent raised an eye at the use of no honorific at the end of Serenity's name.
In the mean time Serenity was choking the life force out of the now detransformed Mamoru. " If you ever touch Neptune again ..... Omae o Korosu." , Serenity stated her voice dripping with venom and hate. " I am supposed to be King.", Mamoru managed to croak out. If possible Serenity's eyes turned colder and gripped his throat tighter. " You will never become King, I declare it in the name of Selenity , and swear it on the sword of Artemis you will NEVER become king", Serenity stated her eyes displaying cold fire and rage. Suddenly, Serenity's eyes turned back to their normal cerulean blue and she dropped him, a facade placed upon face. Serenity turned towards Crescent, Kamen, and Neptune. " If you wish to come with us you may.", Serenity stated in monotone. " Iie, Serenity-hime we will stay here until the evil here is beaten.", Neptune spoke for the trio. Serenity turned and placed a glare that could have frozen Shinigami him self on the Inner Senshi. Jupiter and Venus unconsciously stepped back, with Mercury standing still absorbed in her computer. Mars stood straight and stared defiantly.
" I see where your loyalties are placed.", Serenity stated to them in the same tone of voice she reserved for Mamoru. " You would sooner attack your princess and follow a traitor like HIM.", she continued. " Search your memories of the Silver Millennium and you will see he was nothing , but a coward, and an Onore", she finished willing her feelings of hatred for the Inner Senshi flow freely in her aura. Finally Mars cringed away.
Much to the shock of the inners Serenity flew towards Trunks and placed a hand on his shoulder. At her touch he powered down, his lilac hair falling into place." Let's go, Trunks-kun.", Serenity stated powering down also, her hair flying free. A second later a portal opened next to them and the duo stepped out of sight.
TIME GATES_________________________________________________________________
SERENITY'S POV
" Puu-chan?", I questioned through the mists. " Over here Hime", Pluto called walking towards us. " Good-Job? ",she continued. " Um, Puu-chan,Is there anyway we could see what happened just before we left?", I asked her hesitantly. " Hai, follow me.", Pluto said walking until she came to a stop at a seemingly birdbath filled with water. Pluto waved her staff over it until it rippled and showed us 45 minutes into the past.
PAST
Haruka stood up and stalked into the house, ignoring Vegeta's outburst, her facial features set in stone. The others hurried in quickly after her. She stalked into the the living room where Gohan was putting a cold compress on Hotaru's head and Kuririn was hovering worriedly. 18 stood in the doorway , not really sure what to do. " Move.", growled Haruka to Gohan. In a flash of sandy yellow she stood as Sailor Uranus. " Uranus Power", She called, placing a two fingers on Hotaru's forehead. In a black flash Hotaru was Sailor Saturn, and wide awake. " Whoa.", breathed Gohan. Uranus helped Saturn up, then crossed her arms and waited. " I suppose you're wondering what's happening......", started Saturn, but Uranus cut her off. " Damn right I do! And if I don't find out soon there's going to be hell to pay!", Uranus yelled bringing out her space sword. " Calm down Haruka -papa!", Saturn ordered then started to speak again. " Michiriu-mama, Sailor Neptune, was attacked ................. by ....by ....", Saturn started her eyes cast down ward. " Who?", questioned Bulma in a somewhat calm state. " Mamoru-san.", Hotaru whispered, and everyone heard her.
" NANI!?!", screamed Uranus griping her sword tighter. " That Kono yaro,baka, bakana, bakayaro,Kusottare,Onore !!!!!!", Uranus ranted. ChiChi had covered Goten's ears, while Bulma had done likewise with Chibi-Trunks. Gohan looked shocked that such words were allowed to escape any mouth. Kuririn was just as shocked as Gohan. Vegeta looked on with mild interest. Goku looked slightly confused. 18 was smirking and somewhat pitying the man who had caused this Senshi to get angry. " Haruka-papa we should de-hension and wait for them to comeback. We should wait outside, they'll be back soon.", Hotaru assured Haruka.
" But wait why didn't Chibi-Trunks pass out too?, he obviously felt the same thing Hotaru did.", Bulma questioned. Hotaru shook her head in agreement, then said," The only reason he felt it at all, is because he's tied with Serenity-hime for the time being. Therefore she was able to block out the painful parts of knowing when a loyal Senshi is in danger." Bulma nodded her head in understanding then started to usher everyone outside.
END
SERENITY'S POV
" Haruka-chan's going to be pissed.", I groaned placing my face in my hands. I heard Pluto stifle a laugh and open a portal for us. Suddenly the whole situation stopped being, so funny as I realized what I did. I nearly killed someone. Innocent or not he was human and I wasn't allowed to decide his fate. " Pluto?", I asked. She nodded for me to speak. " Onegai, don't mention what I did, you know what I mean, even if he deserved it, I didn't have the right to do it.", I said all in one breath. " Hai, Hime", Pluto answered pushing us towards the portal. " Ja Ne", she called after us.
We entered the Midori/ Murasaki ringed portal and landed on the ground 50 feet away from C.C. Everyone was outside doing their own thing. I saw Chibi-Trunks showing off his silver pager/ hologram locket to Goten. Goten didn't look very happy. A few seconds later the heads of Vegeta,Goku, Gohan, Haruka, Hotaru, Chibi-Trunks,Kuririn,18 and Goten snapped in our direction. " Kuso.", I heard Trunks mutter behind me. I flinched, I had forgotten he was behind me. " I guess we should go tell them.", I said throwing a glance at Trunks. He started to walk towards them when I placed a hand on his shoulder, and he turned around. "Arigatoo, Trunks-kun.", I stated looking him in the eye." For what, Serenity-hime?", he asked raising an eyebrow. " For helping me,and onegai, call me Serenity-chan.", I explained. He gave me a brief smile/smirk and walked forward.
MY POV
" Koneko-chan ..........", Haruka growled when she felt her Hime's ki along with the sayjin prince. Everyone who had strayed about the yard, came forward and waited for the duo to emerge. A few seconds later Trunks came forward first followed by Serenity. " What happened?", demanded Haruka brandishing her space sword once more. Frowning Serenity replied," Neptune is fine ,and completely healed." Haruka visibly lost some of the tension in her aura, and her sword dissipated into thin air." What about Mamoru-san?", asked Hotaru holding her hands infront of herself. Serenity's blue eyes flashed, then she tensed and turned her head down eyes downcast. "Well?", questioned Haruka. " I'd rather not speak about it.", Serenity stated in cold monotone. Haruka recoiled as if she had been slapped, she wasn't expecting the harsh tone coming from her Hime. " What did happen to him, Chibi-Onna?",Vegeta demanded repeating Haruka's question. Serenity kept her head down for a moment then lifted her head slightly,her eyes closed. "I won't repeat myself, Vegeta-sama.", she stated her voice complete frost. Suddenly her eyes snapped open to reveal emotionless silver eyes. Vegeta's eye's widened for a moment showing surprise. Serenity turned away from everyone then said, " Haruka continue to train Bulma-san, take Little One and train him in the way's of the Moon." " But, Kone--", started Haruka. " I'll be back just ,Onegai, do what I ask.", interrupted Serenity levitating in the air.Trunks turned to stop her, but a glare from Haruka kept him at ground level. After a brief pause their was a silver flash and Serenity was gone. Vegeta powered up to SSJ , prepared to go after her when a small hand landed on his shoulder. " You better find her, Vegeta-koi.", Bulma said in a soft voice, her eyes held worry and concern for the young female warrior. Vegeta turned to face his mate, sensing her uneasiness he placed a hand on her cheek and held her head softly. " It's my job to protect her, as she is the last living Lunarian. Weather it be that damned Prince of Earth that hurts her or her Senshi themselves, I will protect her. Besides she's a demi sayjin, she'll survive", Vegeta whispered to Bulma. Bulma nodded and Vegeta pulled away to find everyone staring at them. " Baka's.", he muttered causing Bulma to crack a smile. With that said he blasted off in the direction Serenity went.
" Did that just happen?",Gohan asked. "Yup, I saw it with my own two eyes onii-san, see?", Goten replied pointing his index fingers at his eyes. "Forget that, He just said she was a demi sayjin!!!!",yelled Trunks. "How can she be, she's not in any of my files", interrupted 18. Hotaru, Haruka,ChiChi and Bulma stood on the sidelines watching their family and friends argue over one little detail. " Haruka-papa can we calm them down?", asked Hotaru. " I have an idea.", stated Bulma pulling out her hension stick. " What?", asked Haruka, her lips twisting in an evil smile. " I figured it out last night, watch.", Bulma replied.
"MERCURY PLANET POWER!!!!!!!"
In a blue flash that didn't even faze the arguing people Bulma was Sailor Mercury.
"MERCURY AQUA MIRAGE !!!!!!!!!!"
A Blue triton appeared in her hand, it was taller than she. A huge blue ball of water appeared at the end of it. The water started shooting out balls of water the size of basketballs at the still arguing people. Soon the entire posse of people were dripping wet." Kassan....... ", growled Trunks. 18 generated a swift ki blast along with Gohan and they threw it in Mercury's direction.
"WATER WALL !!!!!"
A wall of water appeared infront of the women and absorbed the attacks. "Wha ..... ", Gohan started his shoulders slumped. ChiChi burst out in a fit of giggles at her son's expression. " ChiChi ...........", whined Goku. This only made her laugh harder. Trunks raised his ki to dry himself off. " Hey, how did you do that.", Kuririn asked. Trunks shrugged. Goku noted exactly how Trunks manipulated his ki, then tried it on him self. " Hey , it worked!", Goku called out. " You sayjin's really grate on my nerves.", Kuririn muttered, ringing out his shirt. Goku let out a hearty laugh and placed his hand behind his head.
When the water chaos was sorted out, and Bulma detransformed everyone went in the living room of C.C. Bulma, Chibi-Trunks, and Hotaru were seated on the couch, while Haruka and 18 sat on the two seater, and Kuririn, Gohan, ChiChi, and Goku sat on the opposite couch, Goten was sitting on the floor leaning on his mothers legs, and Trunks took his usual place in the recliner.
" So, did you girls know that Serenity-san was a demi-sayjin?", ChiChi asked directing the question towards Haruka and Hotaru. Hotaru nodded her head Iie."All we ever knew, All we were ever allowed to know, was that Serenity-hime's father was not of our solar system, and that he died defending his planet, before Serenity was born.", Hotaru told ChiChi." The only person besides the Queen herself who knew was Queen Selenity's cousin , Aphrodite-sama.", said Haruka." Now we know why.", stated Hotaru.
" Nani?!", asked Goku. " Marriage between Lunarian's and Say-jin's were forbidden, and any heir produced was to be destroyed.", explained Haruka. " How come?", asked Chibi-Trunks. Haruka ran a hand threw her hair and sighed. " Say-jins were considered the most powerful Darkness , but Lunarians were the most powerful people of hikari. ", added Hotaru. " Onegai, understand that with the two most powerful races ever producing a heir could cause mass destruction everywhere.", started Haruka " But hopefully Serenity-hime will be able to control the powerflow.", interrupted Hotaru.
" Wait, you do know that Aphrodite-sama was the Megami of Love, or Venus right?", asked Gohan.Haruka shook her head Hai. " If Aphrodite-sama was Selenity-sama's cousin, then Selenity-sama is a Megami, and that would mean, Serenity-hime is a demi-megami also!", Bulma yelled out. Hotaru nodded to Bulma then said," and Aries is her resident uncle." The room was silenced for a moment, letting everyone digest the information. " I hope Koneko-chan's all right.", sighed Haruka, her face etched with worry. Suddenly Haruka stood up." You,", she said , pointing at Trunks," Exactly what the hell happened?", said Haruka sitting back down.
"Well ........", he started.
TRUNKS POV
" Well.", I said Looking at the Haruka. " When we went through the portal, Pluto basically shoved us through another portal, pausing long enough to tell us there wasn't much time. In a few seconds we were standing in the shadows waiting for a moment to attack, without hurting the aqua hared girl.", I started. " Michiriu.", Haruka stated. " Nani?", I asked her. " The girls name is Michiriu,", Haruka elaborated. I nodded in agreement, then continued." After waiting a second we saw Michiriu-san spit in the man's face,", I said smirking. Haruka hid a grin behind her hand. " Then we heard him mutter about how she was going to regret that, and that he and Serenity were going to become King and Queen someday. Serenity-san lost it when he edged the blade around Michiriu-san's throat ---," , I started, but Haruka interrupted." What blade?!?", then she materialized her sword and muttered, " Ha, I'll show him a blade."
" Anyway,", I said wanting to distract Haruka", Serenity-san yelled out,' becoming King was all you ever wanted' the man panicked and got careless with the blade, so Serenity-san shot a ki blast at him. He dropped the blade and flew a good distance away. A woman in green asked who I was and on her way to Michiriu-san, Serenity-san yelled out I was the Ooji no all Say-jins.", I said pausing to breathe.
" Wait a minute Serenity-hime actually introduced you like that?,", asked Hotaru smiling." Hai.", I replied." She must have been pretty angry then.", Hotaru replied."What does that have to do with anything?", interrupted Gohan. Hotaru sighed. " All the Sailor Senshi knew of the Say-jins, for their power and strength, along with their ruthlessness, Koneko wanted them to be in fear.", Haruka explained, then added smirking," I would have loved to see the Inners faces, after all, Koneko-chan wasn't with just any Sayjin, she was with the Ooji." Apparently Gohan caught on because he said," I see, the Senshi are afraid of us." Hotaru shook her head," Iie only the Inners."
"Anyhow", I interrupted gaining everyone's attention,"Serenity healed Michiriu-san , and the Onore in the tuxedo, called Serenity-san 'Usa-koi', and he called me a 'Kono yaro'. I was kind of angry so I went SSJ, Serenity-san transformed and her eyes were glowing silver. Serenity-san jacked the man up against a tree and started choking the life out of him." , I explained pausing for a second, seeing Hotaru's worried face. " Then girl in red yelled out ' Iieeee', and shot an arrow at Serenity-san. Michiriu-san ran to intercept it , but wasn't fast enough , so I did. Meanwhile Serenity-san was behind me swearing death threats on this guy. He muttered something and she choked him harder, and made threats in the name of Selenity and on the sword of Artemis.", I said glancing at Haruka to see her clenched fists. "Serenity threw the man on the ground , then gave the four women in Blue, Red, Green, and Orange a piece of her mind. When she was done we powered down and left.", I finished.
"This is not good.", murmured Hotaru. " Nani?! What's wrong", asked Kassan concerned. " She's making death threats on two out of the three most holy things in the Universe.", Haruka explained. " Which are...", Kuririn trailed off.
" Number 1: the name of Selenity, Number 2: the sword of Artemis,", Hotaru said.
"Koneko-chan swore in the Name of Selenity, and if something happens that somehow makes her brake that vow, something terrible may happen. The sword of Artemis is the instrument of Shi itself, and swearing on that sword is like sealing someone's death.", explained Haruka her brow creasing with worry .
I glanced at Hotaru to see her trembling, and clenching her fists. "O genki desu ka?". I asked. Hotaru looked at me and said , " Hai." Haruka sighed. " Even if Koneko-chan is not here we must train regardless." Kassan nodded hesitantly in agreement. Without another word, Haruka, Hotaru, Chibi-Trunks, and Kassan walked out. " I say we watch them,", Kuririn exclaimed. Goku nodded in agreement, and stood up to follow.
WITH VEGETA AND SERENITY .....________________________________________________
MY P.O.V.
A young teenager is seen standing on a hill, the wind blowing her silver hair every which way. Her now deep blue eyes hold a sadness one her age should never know. She knows she's changing, she can feel it in her bones. Her dear departed mother warned her, but she didn't think the change would be so drastic.Her frosted over heart was focused on breaking through the icy barrier surrounding it, only causing her mind to believe the worst.
An older man gazed at the woman with fatherly concern.He didn't quite understand what was wrong with the hime, but he was determined to find out. He thought about leaving the chibi-onna to her thoughts, but thought against it, when he remembered his mates words.
The silver hared girl was oblivious to the mans stare. She didn't know he was there, and if she did she didn't care. The girls posture was straight, her fists clenched, her eyes holding unshed tears. She tried so hard to be strong, yet her resolve was fading. Her heart made her want to cry, her mind wanted her to keep a cold glare never to shed a tear. She has had enough. Enough. The ice barrier cracked, and broke dragging a flood of pain throughout her body.
She let out a heart wrenching sob, dropping on the ground. She pulled her knees up to her chest letting the waves and rivers of silver hair cover her figure completely. Her body was racked with silent sobs of despair. The man watched on unsure of what to do.
A snow white wolf with piercing blue eyes, came to the hime, slowly. The man tensed watching the animal cautiously. The animal seemed to have no ki whatsoever. Suddenly, the girls head snapped up. Her eyes were red rimmed, the only traces of her tears. The girls eyes locked with the wolf's. The wolf slowly came closer to her face till it was about a foot away. The girl reached out and pet the creature behind it's ears. The wolf rested it's head on the girls knees, completely trusting her. " I shall call you Shiro.", whispered the girl, burying her face in it's mane, crying once more.
The man however, was shocked that the girl could befriend a wild animal with the greatest of ease. He landed down on the ground about 6 feet away from the girl. ~Tuski-hime~ , thought Shiro to the girl. The girl, startled the wolf could talk, nodded her head not looking up. ~There is a man approaching, is he friend or foe?~ , asked the Shiro putting itself between the hime and the stranger, growling. The girl looked up and murmured," Friend." Shiro backed down lying by his mistress once more.The girl dried her eyes, and stood up. " Hai, Vegeta-san?", she asked her head down. Vegeta walked up to the girl, and placed a hand on her shoulder. " Chibi-onna,........ Serenity......", started Vegeta, he was at a loss for words. " It'll be o-kay ," , he said finally. Serenity nodded in agreement, sending a futile smile his way.
" Do you think Bulma-chan will let me keep Shiro?", asked Serenity looking up at the man who wasn't much taller than she was. Vegeta smirked at the large animal, hiding behind Serenity's legs. He snorted with suppressed laughter as he imagined the look on his mates face when they brought it home. Vegeta nodded , a wicked gleam in his eye , and started levitating. ~ I fly with the wind, as I am part of it, Tuski-hime. Just call and I'll be there.~, said the wolf fading with wind. " Doomo, Shiro-chan.", Serenity whispered before joining a shocked Vegeta in the air. " Wha- Where did that creature go?!?!", demanded Vegeta. Serenity smirked, powering up, and stated," Oh, Shiro's around." Not waiting for a reply from the Ooji, she blasted off towards C.C.
S/M DIMENSION______________________________________________________________
MY P.O.V.
Rei paced worriedly around her shrine glancing at the comatose Mamoru. "Ami-chan did you get the results on that guy yet?", asked the ever impatient Minako. " Almost got it.", replied Ami. Makoto was busy sitting at the small table fingering her henshin pen. Suddenly a groan was heard from Rei's bed. "Mamoru-kun?", asked Rei, coming directly to the beaten man. " Ugh, What the Hell happened?", he demanded holding his head in his hands. " You were just beat up by your future wife.", supplied Makoto cracking her knuckles, and hiding a grin. Mamoru groaned again. " I've got it!", cried out Ami suddenly. " You do?", asked Minako," He was sooo Bishoonen!", she finished, hearts filling her eyes. Rei smacked Minako upside the head grumbling about 'baka Mina-chan' , and' almost as bad as Usagi'.
" So, what's it say, Ames ?", asked Makoto sidling up next too the blue hared girl. " Well there's good and bad news.", Ami started closing her computer. " Well, what's the good news?", asked Mamoru, jumping into the conversation. " The good news is Usagi-chan is not possessed, nor is she infected with negative energy.", Ami said slowly. " But she flew!", Minako interrupted. " Let me finish Mina-chan, #1 she has the Golden crystal, and #2 I've discovered what her father was." , Ami finished. " And that's good news because how?", asked Mamoru obviously angry as to where 'his' crystal was. " Well, that is good news , compared to the bad.", Ami pointed out. " What's the bad news!?!", Rei asked losing her temper.
Ami sighed.", The bad news is, Usagi's father. A say-jin." "NANI?!?!?!", yelled the three teenagers. " I already knew.", whispered Minako. " NANI?!?!?!", screamed Rei getting out of her seat to tower over Minako." How did you know!?!", asked Mamoru slightly better tempered than Rei. " Kassan told me. She said Queen Serenity said to tell no one.", Minako defended. " And you kept it from us?", snarled Rei. " Don't tell me that you would have disobeyed a direct order from Queen Serenity!", Minako shot back , angrily. " That's ENOUGH!!!!!", yelled Ami, surprising everyone again. " We have more important things to worry about!", she continued. "Anyway, that man she was with WAS infact a Say-jin. And he WAS the Ooji, he had the royal blood. Not to mention the fact that he protected Usa-chan", Ami stated glaring at Rei." Kami-sama not the Say-jins.", murmured Makoto. Even Mamoru looked pale. " Is that all?", asked Minako taking her role as leader. " Iie.", answered Ami. " That Say-jin was 1/4 Mercurian Royalty.", finished Ami. " You mean he's .... O my Kami", stuttered Rei. " Now that, that's taken care of.....", started Ami glaring at Mamoru,"we have to discus Mamoru-san's problem.", she finished.
" What problem?", asked Mamoru cockily.Ami raised an eyebrow, " You attacked a fellow Senshi, hurt her, and threatened her beyond belief! And you, Rei are no better, attacking our HIME!" The quiet, shy, Hime of Mercury was currently glaring alternately between Rei and Mamoru. " She would have killed Mamoru-kun, I couldn't allow that! Besides he would have done the same for me!", Rei replied her temper flaring once more. Ami frowned and a light blue glow surrounded her. " What's happening?", cried Minako. In seconds she too was surrounded in an orange glow, followed by Makoto who was surrounded by green. Mamoru and Rei watched intently waiting for something to happen. All of the sudden the glows subsided leaving three very pissed of Senshi. " Iie, Rei your wrong, he wouldn't have saved you, he would have ran like he did in the past.", Makoto stated, her left eye twitching. " What are y-you talking about Mako-chan?", Mamoru asked nervously.
" How do you know?", asked Rei hotly. " Because he left Serenity to die when Beryl came!", Interrupted Mina standing up to glare at the unfortunate Onore. " And you called that Say-jin Ooji a Kono yaro? He didn't run when Mars shot an attack at her, he ran to intercept it!", Ami retorted in a harsh tone. " Minna-chan, you've all gone mad, he died protecting Sere----", Rei started till she was surrounded in a red glow of her own. Mamoru started to try to run away before Rei was done, he knew he was screwed, BIG time. Just as he was at the door he turned around to make sure all the girls were still seated. Suddenly two girls voices said," I don't think so." He jerked back around to see Minako, and Makoto standing back to back their arms crossed, a menacing expression on their faces.
Suddenly someone tapped on his shoulder. He turned around only to be met with the face of a VERY angry Rei. Rei was to angry to speak so she didn't, she drew back her fist and hit him as hard as she could in the face.
WHAM!!!!!!!
Mamoru fell like a sack of potato's unconscious. Makoto whistled in agreement to the man's fate. " I feel lower than dirt.", muttered Rei looking darkly at Mamoru. " Why?", asked Ami,"According to my calculations Mamoru deserved what he got and alot more!" "Iie, not because of Mamo-baka, because I failed to see through the lies. And in result I .......... I attacked Usa-chan.", Rei whispered sitting down on her bed. " What have I done?", Rei asked herself.
DBZ DIMENSION______________________________________________________________
MY P.O.V.
Sailor Saturn swung her glaive at Sailor Mercury(Bulma). Mercury quickly reacted by blocking the attack with her triton. Sailor Uranus watched on amused at the shocked looks on the male population's faces. Not one of them believed that Bulma could fight.
Sailor Uranus noted the differences between Bulma's and Ami's Fuku. Bulma's was a slight shade lighter than Ami's. Her choker had an star on it similar to Saturn's. Bulma had Blue high heels instead of boots.Above her tri layered skirt was the sign of Mercury in-between two pieces of Ribbon connecting the bow on her back. Her hair was waist length and she had a triton.
All of the sudden Sailor Uranus felt Serenity and Vegeta's ki overhead. " Hold it!", called Uranus to the two sparring Senshi. The two stopped in their tracks, and peered at the sky. In the short time they had been sparring Bulma had learned, how to sense ki, and fight effectively with her triton.
As Serenity and Vegeta landed on the ground Hotaru detransformed and ran to Serenity embracing her. " Sere-chan, don't go away anymore.", whispered Hotaru into the older girls shirt. Serenity hugged the smaller girl back, and smiled softly. Bulma de henshioned, and walked over to her husband." Well.....", Bulma asked poking him in the ribs." What, Onna", Vegeta asked smirking at his mate. " What happened?", she asked. Vegeta did nothing but cross his arms over his chest and smirk.Bulma sighed. She wouldn't get a thing out of the stubborn Ooji.
" Bulma-san?", asked Serenity." Call me CHAN! San makes me feel old!", Bulma scolded. " Bulma-CHAN?", asked Serenity emphasizing the CHAN part. " Hai, Serenity-san?", asked Bulma. " The chan rule works both ways you know?", Serenity pointed out. Bulma just smiled nodding her head. " Anyway, while I was gone I met a friend, I was wondering if he could stay here?", Serenity replied. Unbeknownst to Bulma Vegeta was smirking like a mad man, he knew who Serenity's new 'friend' was. " What do you mean 'he' Koneko-chan?", asked Haruka suspiciously. " He's real nice Haruka-chan, you'll love him, I do.", replied Serenity, a highly evil gleam in her eye. Vegeta snorted, His eyes holding amusement. " NANI!?!?!", screeched Haruka, thinking evil thoughts about this 'man'. " I don't see why not.", Bulma said hesitantly eyeing her husband and hime. ' Uh-oh, these two are scheming, I can feel it', Bulma thought. " Do you know him Vegeta-chan?", asked Bulma sweetly. Vegeta suddenly found some imaginary point very interesting. "Well....", Asked ChiChi becoming suspicious along with her aqua hared friend. " Well, can I call him?", asked Serenity hope shining in her eyes.
Trunks had been ready to leave, he didn't want to meet the man his Serenity was in love with. The thought of her and another person, made his blood boil.Plus his heart ached when the words,'He's real nice.... you'll love him, I do', escaped her lips. He was about to walk away when he heard Serenity call,"Trunks-kun stay awhile, I'm sure you'll get along." Hesitantly, he stopped and turned around, feeling as if the pain in his heart would consume him. He nodded numbly, and took his place by Kuririn once more. He noticed Gohan eyeing him so I looked at him.' Trunks-kun?'.,Gohan mouthed almost breaking down in laughter. Trunks was in no mood therefore he gave Gohan a glare that could rival Vegeta's. Gohan shrunk away sensing the mortal danger he was in, at the moment.
Serenity levitated around ten feet in the air and called out,"SHIROOOOO!!!!!".
(An: Not to be confused with Relena's mating call which is HHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIRRRRRROOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!)*ouch ouch hearing aid *
Around a mile away a wolf was settled it the high grass staring at nothing. Suddenly, the words Shiro, carried through the wind, and directly to him. The wolf jumped up excited that his Mistress had called him. He howled in anticipation, letting her know he was on his way.~coming Tuski-hime ~, he thought to her, hoping she heard. With one more howl he faded with the wind.
Serenity lowered to the ground , and heard the howl of a wolf. Shiro to be more exact. Faintly she heard ~coming Tuski-hime~. She smiled and waited a few more seconds to hear a second howl. The sun was going down creating a ghostly atmosphere with the wolf howls. "Where is he?", asked Gohan raising an eyebrow. She said nothing as she felt the air around her become different. It ran through her hair and all around her saying 'hello'. The air was Shiro. Serenity smirked ," He's here." She spied a lot of confused faces and heard some huh's from the group.
Suddenly the air on her right side created a small tornado. " Look out !", yelled Kuririn taking a step back grabbing 18's hand in the process. Serenity stood calmly, while Trunks wanted to leave as soon as possible. The wind in the the mini tornado started taking a form, a shape. The figure that stepped out of the tornado didn't even remotely resemble a person. The tornado dissipated revealing a white wolf. " See Haruka, don't you love him already?", Serenity asked smirking. While, Vegeta on the other hand was out right laughing. Haruka had a dumb founded look on her face which soon eased into an embarrassed smile. Trunks was gaping at the animal with disbelief in his eyes. That was definitely NOT what he had expected. But it worked for him. And slowly the pain of the demi-Megami loving another left his heart.
" Minna-san, Meet Shiro-chan.", Serenity stated petting the creatures head. ~ Are they friends?~, asked the wolf. " Hai.", Serenity replied scratching it behind the ears. The seemingly tame wolf wondered off, to inspect the people. He started with Vegeta, who had his hands draped at his side. ~I remember him.~, Shiro thought for all to hear. " Excuse me, I think I'm hearing things.", Goku stated speaking up for the first time in awhile." Nope , Tousan, I heard it too.", Gohan replied. Serenity laughed lightly saying," It was Shiro." Meanwhile Shiro was licking Vegeta's hand. Suddenly, the wolf turned from Vegeta to Bulma and came up to her, Bulma yelped and ran behind Vegeta. Shiro stared at her then, walked to Chibi-Trunks.Sensing Serenity's aura around him, he nuzzled the boy's hand. Then he went to Trunks. ~ Oi, he's a bigger version of the smaller one, How bout I say Hello.~, Shiro private thought speech to Serenity. She giggled causing people to stare." What?", she asked innocently. Without warning Shiro jumped with lighting speed on Trunks', chest causing him to fall backwards in the grass. " Whoa!", he cried, windmilling his arms. In the end Trunks landed on his back, with Shiro prancing on and off him. Finally, Shiro found a spot to curl onto Trunks. The wolf let out a doggie yawn, rested it's head on Trunk's stomach and 'dozed' off.
Gohan burst out laughing like a hyena. Goku cracked a grin, and was followed by Kuririn. 18 and ChiChi just rolled they're eyes, and mumbled'baka's' " Can we keep him Bulma-chan?Onegai?", asked Serenity pleading with the older woman. " That thing listens to you right?", asked Bulma cautiously stepping out from behind a smirking Vegeta. " Of, course he does Onna.", Vegeta replied. " Yeah Kassan we never had a pet before, and it already likes Trunks see?",Chibi-Trunks said pointing to the two on the ground. " Oh, O, All right.",Bulma relented throwing her hands up in defeat, then grinning at her older son's plight.
The wolf would just not get off of him. " Get off.", stated Trunks for the millionth time.~ You didn't ask nicely.~, Shiro said slyly to the stuck to the ground boy.Causing the people around him to laugh harder. For some reason no matter how hard he tried he couldn't get the animal off him. " Fine,", Trunks grumbled." Will you onegai, get off of me, Shiro-chan?", asked Trunks. ~Sorry, too late now, I just got comfortamble~, Shiro replied laying his head back down.
"AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGG, SERENITY-CHAN!?!?!?!", Trunks yelled. In seconds Serenity was at his side scanning for any problem." What?", she asked bewildered." First off, Get him off me, Next Why is he So heavy?, He's a wolf, for Christ's sake!", Trunks exclaimed." He's a Wind Wolf.",Serenity started winking at him," Maybe I'll leave you two here for a bit." , she finished then walked away. " Let's go inside Minna-san!", Serenity called and held open the door for 18, Kuririn,ChiChi, Goku,Goten,Chibi-Trunks,Bulma and Vegeta.When she realized her Senshi weren't coming she turned around and saw them waiting to speak with her.
On her way over she hopped over Trunks who had long since given up getting Shiro off him. " Hai, Haruka-chan, Taru-chan?", Serenity asked. "Koneko-chan, we know you are part Say-jin.", Haruka stated brushing her hand through her hair. "Don't worry we don't think it's a bad thing, it's just ........ be careful, O~kay.", Hotaru finished for her 'papa'. Serenity flashed a smile,"I'll be fine as long as I keep the light, no matter how much the dark wants to consume me." " Now let's go in!I need to go take a nice long shower!", Serenity stated.
Hotaru and Haruka shrugged in agreement and followed their hime inside.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3 WEEKS AFTER SHIRO FIRST COMES!
(An: I know that it's a big time jump but oh well.)
MY P.O.V.
It was soon discovered that ChiChi should have named Goten 'Got in', and Bulma should have named Chibi-Trunks 'Trouble'. Therefore when you put them together you get Got in Trouble. The two boys had caused more havoc than, Serenity had managed to cause in the Moon Palace.Chibi-Trunks was angry at Goten, because Goten stole his silver locket, so he put a hole through his ceiling with his moon-beam. Goten had laughed about it till he got cornered by his Kassan, Bulma,and Serenity. When this took place Serenity 'calmly' explained that he should be lucky Chibi-Trunks couldn't aim his beam or else Goten would have been blasted to oblivion a million times over.Goten quickly apologized to Chibi-Trunks and returned the locket.
Serenity also started teaching Chibi-Trunks 'Moon Power'. He quickly learned the art of controlling his moon symbol, now remember this is AFTER the locket incident. Also she taught him to control his Moon aroura so that it wasn't detected. She thought this of the utmost importance seeing as how the enemy might mistake him for her. He also mastered speaking telepathically with Serenity and Bulma. He couldn't quite establish a link a permanent link with Haruka and Hotaru yet. Plus he could teleport short distances with other people.
The two children were fighting again and Goten blew up half of the gravity room, earning himself death glares from Vegeta and Bulma for a week.There were a few youma attacks, but they had all been easily beaten. They were getting easier for some strange odd reason, but every morning like clock work Serenity and Vegeta trained.
They also managed to end up locked in the bathroom, on the third floor. When ChiChi found them she found the room a flurry of white. There was shaving cream and bubbles all over the place. It took her a moment to spot the boys in the mess. They looked like snowmen, with big innocent eyes. Needless to say they were both grounded for a week, and were only allowed bathroom trips for three minutes.
Then Shiro had made it a point to pin Trunks to the ground every few days, for a 'few' hours. And every night after Trunks had been pinned Shiro was found in Chibi-Trunks' room the next morning.
During that time, Serenity had grown fond of Trunks and he of her. Now they were nearly attached at the hip.They shared stories of the past and problems in the future. According to Bulma they were having 'puppy love'. After much protesting on their part, she finally relented, griping about not having grandchildren yet, much to the embarrassment of the Serenity and Trunks. Every night Shiro pinned Trunks down, Serenity would come about 10 o'clock and shoo Shiro off, then wake up Trunks and go to bed.
This all happened quite methodically, though one night something changed.
MY. POV.
Slowly the backdoor creaked open to the back yard of Capsule Corporation. The person was obviously female and wearing black and silver nightclothes, covered by a black C.C. jacket. The figure walked about 20 feet away from the house till she came upon two sleeping figures. "Shiro-chan?", she whispered poking the wolf in the ribs. The animal stood up quickly alert. Then it noticed Serenity, ~Hai, Tuski-hime?~, he asked. " I'm going to wake up Trunks. You go with Chibi-Trunks,If something happens get Little One and teleport to me.", Serenity stated. The wolf 'nodded' ." I want you to find him and keep him safe tonight, I have a strange feeling.", Serenity added. ~Hai, hime-chan~, The wolf said fading into the air.
SERENITY'S POV
The Moon was shining bright making me glow like a radioactive corn field, but I didn't care. When I was sure Shiro-chan was gone I glanced at Trunks. I was now sitting down next to the demi-sayjin, looking at his peaceful face.His face was pale under the moon, as his chest rose evenly with every breath he took. Sometime that day his hair had come out of the loose ponytail he had it in. His hair was displayed all about like a fan. For once I noticed his face wasn't uptight with worry, or any kind of emotion. He just looked peaceful, completely at ease.
I realized I was staring at him, but I couldn't help it. My heart beat fast when he was near me, like now for instance, It's beating so loud I'm sure people in the Underworld can hear it. I can't help, but remember the way he held me when I fell, because of Michi-chan's attack.I can't help but want him to hold me like that again. I can't help, but remember how he held me when we appeared infront of the others. I remember being warm, safe, protected, and ...... What? What, was the other feeling? It was more than friendship, could it be love?
I felt my eyes harden, at the word, a word that didn't exist to me. I couldn't fall in love, I wouldn't fall, I refuse! As I look down at the mans face in front of me, I can't help but ask myself : What if I've already fallen?
The only answer to my question is: hook line and sinker.
TRUNKS P.O.V. A few minutes earlier.
I feel a weight pushed off my chest as I hear someone talking to Shiro. The voice..... The voice of an angel ....... Serenity. I know she sent Shiro away, but I wasn't paying attention to what else was said. I let myself drift into my own thoughts, keeping my breathing even to look as if I were still asleep. I kept my face relaxed.
Serenity was the Tenshi I could never have. Kami-sama.I feel her gaze on me, but I don't dare move. I've never felt like this towards another person before. It almost physically hurts to be away from her. I've been around plenty of girls, at school, at Kassan's Corporate parties, everywhere. But not one of them held my interest. Can I be in love? If love is wanting to be there, protect her, spend every minute with her, touch her, hold her, caring more about her life than my own, then I'm in love. Because every single one of those things apply to the way I feel.
The day when she fell down in pain, Because of the Senshi bond I realized what I felt, ever since then I just want to hold her. Later that day when I thought she had found someone besides me, I thought I'd die.The pain from my heart was so excruciating I felt I would collapse. The sad part is no matter how much I may love her, She may not feel the same for me. I feel as if I should say something about it to her, but if she said her feelings were different then mine, I would cease to live. But at least for now I have hope.
Hope.
Suddenly, I feel small fingers belonging to Serenity, brushing stray strands of hair out of my face. As her fingers brush my forehead, I feel a jolt of warmth spread through out my body. Kami-sama. I've been touched by a Tenshi. " It's almost a shame to wake you, Trunks-kun.", she whispers to me much to my surprise. I say nothing. " Do you know what's happening to me ?", Serenity asked not expecting any answers.I feel something wet on my cheek. I realize it's a tear. She's crying."I think I've finally figured it out.", she trails off."I don't know why.", Serenity continued. " I vowed never to do it, It only causes pain.",she stated with venom in her voice." But it's too late.", She went on her fingers ever so lightly brushing the hair near my forehead. " The damage is done, I've fallen in love.", she stated her voice cracking at the word love. I felt my body tense at the words spilling from her lips. Finally I hear her choked whisper," With you." That's all I needed to hear. I open my eyes and stood up, to see Serenity standing faced away from me her shoulders heaving with her sobs. Tentivly I reach my arms around her and whisper in her ear," Ai shiteru." Serenity tries to calm down as she looks at me in confusion. " Nani?", She asks me. " Ai Shiteru.", I reply smiling slightly. She then twisted her body around, so she was facing me. Looking in my eyes she saw the truth in my words and threw her arms around me. I wrapped my arms around her waist, and buried my face in her hair.
MY P.O.V.
A few minutes later she shifted in his embrace which brought her face inches from his. " Ai shiteru, Trunks-koi.", she whispers. Trunks brought down his face just enough to brush her lips against his. Just as he pulled away, he found himself pulled back to her, crushing his lips against hers. The signs of the Cosmos and the Moon are visible on Serenity's forehead, and on Trunks' the signs of Mercury and the Cosmos. Serenity's crystal once again splits in two, giving the Golden Crystal to Trunks, Leaving the Ginzuishou to Serenity.
The two lovers don't realize they've transformed into royal garb. Serenity, in a flowing black and silver dress. Trunks in black and silver armor, With a silver hilted sword, covered with sapphire diamonds.Suddenly Serenity pulled away from Trunks realizing her change." What's happening?", asked Trunks fingering his sword. Serenity said nothing but grasped the floating crystal above her head. Trunks looked up to see a golden one above himself, so he grasped it too.
Serenity's crystal twinkled merrily as if it were happy, while the golden crystal did likewise. Then the two crystals dissolved into sparkles and flew into their owners. As soon as the crystals were gone, the insignia's on their foreheads burst with light, and the royal clothes faded away. " What happened?", Trunks repeated gathering his koibito in his arms once more. " You are the new owner of the Golden Crystal.", Serenity replied smirking to herself. Trunks sighed," Would you mind explaining that in detail?". " The Golden Crystal is a part of my Ginzuishou. It is the second most powerful object in the Universe.", Serenity explained. " Why do I have it?And why did you have those symbols on your forehead?", Trunks asked frustrated. " First off, you understand that Bulma-chan is a Senshi,ne?", Serenity asked. Trunks nodded and said,"Hai." " Well you do realize she is the sole heir to the planet Mercury?", Serenity explained smirking. " Nani?!?!", Trunks cried. " Technically, She's Queen of Mercury, which would make you the Ooji.", Serenity stated, cursing herself for not realizing that if Bulma was Mercurian, than Trunks and Chibi-Trunks should be too.Not MUST be, SHOULD be. " What does that have to do with your symbol's?", asked Trunks. " You had them too, Although instead of the Moon symbol you had Mercury.", she told him matter of factly. " NANI?!?", asked Trunks.Serenity nodded then said," I'm not sure why you had the star symbol though,As for the Golden crystal, It belongs to the one I love." Trunks nodded his head slightly confused.Serenity laughed lightly and said," All you need to know is that you and I are going to be training together, nearly all the time." Trunks smirked and nodded in agreement to Serenity's words.
" We should get some sleep.", Serenity stated yawning to prove her point. She slipped out of Trunks' embrace, and started walking towards the house. A second later she felt Trunks tug her backwards by her arm. She spun around in a flurry of silver,his arms wrapped around her waist, her hand resting on his chest. " I'm not tired yet.", Trunks stated huskily, his eyes half lidded. Serenity responded by tilting her head back slightly, and wrapping her arms around his neck. Trunks descended down to Serenity's lips. He kissed them softly, relishing in the feeling of Her lips on his own. He traced intricate patterns on her lower back, feeling her tighten her arms around his neck, pulling him closer to her. Slowly they parted, letting their lips linger.
" I have to get some sleep.", Serenity whispered trying to will herself away from her newfound love. " Why?", asked Trunks, his eyes glazed over. " Because I'm training with your Tousan, baka.", Serenity stated playfully. Reluctantly Trunks pulled away, his arms still wrapped tightly around her waist.Slowly, the couple walked into the house, just enjoying their closeness.
Careful to keep their ki down they made it to Serenity's room unnoticed. " Goodnight, Trunks-koi.", Serenity stated, hugging him briefly. " Sweet dreams, my Tenshi.", Trunks replied squeezing her tight, not wanting to let her go. No more words were said as Serenity slipped into her room. After gazing at her door for a second, Trunks turned around and tiptoed down the hall to his room.
THE NEXT MORNING
MY POV
At 3:30am Serenity got up tired as a dog. She quickly followed her ritual of taking a cold shower to wake her self up. Her balcony window was open and was blowing a FREEZING breeze in the room. She knew it would get warmer later, but she couldn't help but wish for Trunks. She was cold last night, but when she was in his arms she was quite warm. She spied his C.C. jacket hanging on the edge of her bed, and grabbed it. She slipped it on her shoulders, and teleported outside.
As usual Vegeta was ready and waiting for her. "Ossu.", Serenity said to Vegeta. Vegeta snorted and said,"Took you long enough chibi-onna." With that he jumped in the air, pausing to wait for Serenity. Serenity transformed and followed in suite." You know that blasted animal, woke the Onna and I up last night.", Vegeta started. Serenity said nothing but nodded hai. " When I got up the animal got off the bed apologizing, saying he was looking for Chibi-Trunks by your order, and he must have confused the energies.",Vegeta stated with a smirk on his face. " That sounds like Shiro-chan, to scare Bulma-chan at ungodly hours.", Serenity stated with a smirk of her own." Why were you sending the animal after Chibi-Trunks?", Vegeta asked seriously. " I'm worried.", Serenity stated flatly, creasing her eyebrows." Oh, Why not send him after Kakarotts brat?", Vegeta asked. "Because the enemy won't be after him.", Serenity half explained in monotone. Vegeta stopped in mid air, then sped up to catch up with her. " Nani?!?", demanded Vegeta," My son is who the enemy's after?", Vegeta demanded an evil glint in his eye."Iie.", Serenity said curtly. Vegeta flew infront of her stopping her in her Tracks," Explain.", he demanded. " Nine times out of ten, the enemy is trying to kill me. Your son still has Moon Power, and I always shield mine, therefore I am never found by the enemy. But if your son forgets to shield his power the enemy will go after him, thinking he is me. Then if they find Little One they'll kill him or worse.", Serenity stated in cold monotone. She hadn't meant to sound so cold, but that's what happens when important subjects. Vegeta nodded slowly, and moved out of her way to fly once more.
They landed on the ground in the usual clearing. " We're working on ki attacks today.", Vegeta stated smirking. Vegeta then floated in the air and said," Watch carefully, I'm only doing this once." Vegeta gathered his ki and placed one arm out palm foreword, the other hand was holding onto his wrist. With a loud cry he released the energy. It looked as if to be a mix of ki and fire, although it didn't seem very powerful. As soon as the attack hit the intended boulder, the boulder exploded, along with most of the area around it. Vegeta came back to Serenity, smirking at the look on her face. " Can you do it, Chibi-Onna, It's called the Big Bang Attack?", he asked her. She nodded confidently, and walked a few steps away, and concentrated on how she saw Vegeta use his ki. She remembered how he built it up in his body then released it, in one powerful blast.
She performed the same stance he had, then built up the energy. Just as she couldn't contain it any longer, she let it loose. In brilliant silver the attack headed towards another boulder. It sparkled with electricity, and just as Vegeta's it didn't seem very powerful. But when it hit the boulder, it created the same result.
When Serenity turned around, she saw Vegeta gazing at her in surprise. " Nani?", she asked confused. " You did it on your first try, Chibi-Onna.Good.", Vegeta smirked.
As the morning passed Serenity learned many of Vegeta's attacks. Even attacks that belonged to others, but he managed to master in time. He was amazed at how fast she learned, but wouldn't voice it. She learned :
______________________________________________________________________________
Bakuhatsuha or raising two fingers, she created a large explosion that will totally decimate the surrounding area or the ground under an opponent.( Vegeta's attack)
Big Bang Attack which is a huge ki bolt of incredible destructive power. (Vegeta's attack)
Final Flash is a.k.a. Galic Gun, she powered up the blast like the Kamehameha, but when she released the blast, her hands were both palm-forward.(Vegeta's attack)
Genocide Attack A series of Ki blasts shot into the air, which seek their targets upon being fired. (Goku's)
Kienzan, a flat, disc-shaped Ki blast, which can be used to slice through its target with deadly accuracy. (Kuririn's)
Death Ball, a small ball of energy which can be created from either the tip of the finger or with both hands.( Freeza's/ Cell's)
Dodonpa a blast shot from one finger, which explodes upon impact. (Tien's)
Solar Flare which temporarily blinds the opponent.(Vegeta's attack)
______________________________________________________________________________
Around 11:00 ,which was later than usual, Serenity dropped to the ground from energy drainage. They had just gotten done with aerial sparing, using ki. She had done more work than Vegeta anyway, seeing as how before that he only did each attack once, while sometimes she had to do it five or six." Let's go back.", Vegeta stated actually worried about the girls safety. Serenity nodded, grabbing the long discarded C.C. jacket, off the tree branch. Serenity started levitating in the air, slipping the jacket on in the process. She looked at the sky and realized it was gray and cloudy, it was going to rain soon. She pulled the jacket tighter and smiled slightly at the thought of Trunks.
She flew up next to Vegeta and started slowly towards C.C. " Were did you get that?", asked Vegeta noticing the C.C. symbol on the arm of the jacket for the first time. "Trunks-kun.", she stated in monotone that half the people in the Briefs household were used too. She desperately fought down a blush, and covered it up with a scowl. Vegeta raised an eyebrow, but said nothing more. Suddenly the sky grew even darker, and it started to rain lightly. Serenity flew in lazy circles enjoying the rain on her skin, while Vegeta flew next to her scowling.
All of the sudden it started to pour rain. It came down in hard pelting sheets making it extremely hard to fly or see. " This is ridiculous.", Serenity muttered rolling her eyes. She grabbed Vegeta's shoulder, and concentrated on a picture of the Briefs household." Wha.....", Started Vegeta, then recognizing the ki manipulation, he stated," Serenity STOP, You've used to much energy already!". " Moon teleport.", was her only reply.
As the two disappeared out of sight a bolt of lighting struck were they flew just seconds before.
BACK AT AT C.C. FIVE MINUTES BEFORE THEY ARRIVE.
MY P.O.V.
Trunks paced worriedly around the living room of C.C., glancing out the window every so often."Trunks-san, sit down they'll be back soon, It's just a storm, Serenity-hime has been through much worse.", Hotaru said to him. Trunks slumped in a chair holding his head. "Yeah your right, Hotaru-san.", Trunks stated softly calming himself down. " I hope this rain stops,Koneko-chan told me it's hard to fly in.", said Haruka, just coming downstairs. Trunks groaned and leaned back on the couch. " Way to go Haruka-papa, I just got him calmed down.", Hotaru said softly. Trunks got back up and started pacing again. He looked at his watch it was 11:15, They should have been back over an hour ago.
Outside the Briefs household there was a brief silver flash, and a soaking wet Serenity and Vegeta appeared.Serenity started to open the door when a wave of weariness washed over her and she started to tumble to the ground. Vegeta, with quick reflexes caught her before she fell. " Put me down.", she mumbled.Vegeta picked her up with one arm on her back and the other under her knees. " Iie.", Vegeta replied stonily leaving no room for argument, yet Serenity being Serenity argued anyway." I'm fine, I tripped, put me down.", she protested weakly. "Baka chibi-Onna you don't trip,", Vegeta started pausing to open the door.Once it was open he continued," baka chibi-Onna, you try to strain yourself continuously, you never learn."
Inside the living room Trunks was already walking towards the door to open it once he felt their ki's outside. Just as he was about to open it, the door opened itself followed by the words," baka chibi-Onna, you try to strain yourself, continuously, you never learn.", followed by a weak," put me down." Trunks was trying decipher what was going on, when he saw through the dimly lit hallway that a passed out Serenity was being carried by Vegeta. It broke his heart to see his koibito so helpless."What happened?", he asked. "She used too much energy.", was Vegeta's grunted reply. "Here let me take her upstairs, so you can get changed before Kassan has a fit your getting her floor all wet.", Trunks proposed, hoping that it didn't sound to suspicious that he wanted to take her. He wasn't sure how his Tousan would take the fact that he was involved with her. Vegeta hesitated for a moment then handed her over to his son, and walked off.
Trunks started towards the elevator so he could get there quicker. He shifted Serenity so he could press the elevator button. The doors slid open, and he stepped in. As he was in the elevator, Serenity's gi faded away, and her hair became unbraided, leaving her in a soaking wet t-shirt and Jeans.As soon as the door popped open, Trunks dashed down the hall to Serenity's room. He popped open the door and laid Serenity on the bed. He remembered that she was soaked, and considered calling one of the girls to change her clothes. Then he remembered how he dried off when Bulma shot water on them. But if he used to much ki he could burn her.He remembered that Hotaru once said that Serenity used a crystal to do the magic, so maybe he could use the crystal he had. But where was it?
He decided to focus on the warmth that had been in his chest ever since the crystal entered him. Slowly a golden glow surrounded him. It wasn't the golden glow of when he turned SSJ. This glow was more....serene. He walked over to Serenity and picked her up in his arms once more. As they touched a silver glow surrounded Serenity. He concentrated on her being dry, and sure enough he felt the water stop dripping from her. Suddenly he had a crazy idea. If he could transfer his power to her external body so that she could dry off, maybe he could transfer some energy INTO her, so that she'd be able to wake up. Slowly he tried to expel more energy to her body. Somehow he felt it was working, but he wasn't close enough............
Slowly he bent down and placed his lips on hers. The soft gold glow surrounding him started to grow furiously. The glow around Serenity responded likewise. He kept his lips on hers for a few moments more, and pulled away when he felt hers start to move under his. As he pulled away the glow around himself subsided, as did Serenity's. Suddenly her eyes fluttered open, revealing confused blue orbs. " What time is it?", asked Serenity. "5 to noon.", he replied feeling moderately tired. " NANI?", cried Serenity," I should have been asleep at least until this evening..........", she mused. Trunks sat down on the bed, leaning against the head board ,his koibito still lying in his arms.
Suddenly she turned to stare up at Trunks."Nani?", he asked. " You used the crystal didn't you?", she asked softly. " Hai.",he replied slowly. " Arigatou, but don't ever do it again, until I show you how to use it, if your not in full control it can kill you.", she whispered. Then she turned around so she was on her stomach, still in his arms. "Onegai, promise me, Trunks-koi?", she asked him. Trunks nodded his head, and tightened his arms around her." Then in return you promise me, never to strain yourself like that again, It worries me", Trunks stated seriously. Serenity nodded the same as Trunks did just seconds before. Showing a smile Serenity wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning real close to his face. Just as he leaned in to kiss her, she was gone in silver sparkles. " NANI?!?!", Trunks cried hopping off the bed. He looked over in the bathroom and she wasn't there, he looked everywhere in the room, and she wasn't there. " Sere-chan, this isn't funny.", he stated. Suddenly he heard small chuckles sounding throughout the room. " All right, Where are you?", he asked looking under the bed. The small giggling turned into full blown laughter. He stood up from leaning to look under the bed with scowl on his face.
Out of nowhere something pulled him backwards on the bed." Wha....?", he asked until he caught a glimpse of silver above him. Quicker than the human eye he reached out and grabbed her by the waist. He pulled her down next to him and pinned her on the bed. " Gotcha'.",he stated, making the sad mistake of looking into her eyes. Just as his grip laxed, she flipped him over on his back pinning HIM down. She leaned over him, letting her waves of silver cascade around them both. " Who's got who?", she whispered to him her breath tickling
his lips."Ai shiteru, always Sere-koi", Trunks whispered, his eyes displaying nothing but love."Ai shiteru, too Itooshi.", she replied leaning down to kiss him gently. Feeling his arms wrap around her waist tightly, she closed her eyes and just focused on the man beneath her. Still liplocked Trunks shifted so that he was sitting up with Serenity in his lap. Trunks used one arm to support her back, and the other was holding tightly to her waist. Serenity slid her arms around Trunks' neck, pulling him closer. Tentivly Serenity felt Trunks' tongue trace her lower lip. She obliged by parting her lips to allow his tongue entrance. With the first step done, their tongues engaged in an ageless dance that comes naturally.Slowly with small longing, lingering kisses they parted because of the annoying habit of needing to breathe.
Trunks opened his eyes to see Serenity panting slightly, her face flushed. He couldn't think of a better sight to see when opening his eyes. " W-we should, get going.", Serenity panted,"They'll get worried or worse yet Bulma-chan will send Vegeta-san after us.And if he sees us in this position, you won't be walking for awhile.", she continued smiling softly." I'm not worried about Tousan, I'm worried about Haruka-san, and that sword she has.", Trunks said smirking. Trunks placed a quick kiss of her forehead, and allowed her to stand up. Serenity reached behind herself to grab some of her hair, to see how badly it was knotted. When she saw she groaned and fell back on his lap. Trunks quirked an eyebrow, and wrapped his arms around her. "Nani?", he asked her. " My hair is longer than I am tall, and now it has more knots than shoelaces!", she groaned again. " Can't you just Magic the knots out?", he asked. Serenity shook her head, iie. " Last time I tried I turned my hair green and I couldn't remember how to turn it back for a week." Trunks started smirking, and Serenity sat up and magicked two brushes in her hand. " This is all your fault you know?", she stated handing him a brush. She turned her back towards him, and started brushing the sides of her hair. Trunks took a hint and did the back. " How is it my fault?", Trunks asked finally. " I don't know, It just is!", she replied her voice full of authority. Trunks laughed and continued with her hair.
10 minutes later they were done, and Serenity braided her hair to keep it untangled. Serenity magicked new clothes which happened to be white jean flares, a blue baby-T that said Tenshi on the front with glitter, white sneakers, and a white button up shirt, tied in the front. " Look good?", she asked Trunks. "Looks beautiful from where I'm standing.", he replied. Trunks looked at his watch," It's 12:45, if we hurry we won't be too late for lunch, Kassan said it would be ready at 12:30." Serenity nodded, and walked towards the door. " Come on slow poke, I'm not gonna be the one to make Bulma-chan mad.", Serenity said , her eyes displaying laughter.
The two walked down the hall, with Trunks' arm around Serenity's waist, her head on his shoulder, her eyes displaying contentment. They entered the elevator this way, and when they came out they were walking shoulder to shoulder, Serenity's eyes were no longer the happy, carefree ones seen before, but now they were hard as ice. Walking room to room, they got to the dining room without speaking a word. Opening the door Trunks walked in calling,"Ossu." All the heads turned in his direction." Nani?", Trunks asked, startled at the looks he was getting. "Hai, I'm fine everyone, just in case you feel the need to know.", Serenity stated from behind him. The Senshi breathed a sigh of relief, and Vegeta frowned,"You were not fine an hour and a half ago, Get. To. Bed." "I'm fine Vegeta-sama, check my powerlevel.", Serenity replied in monotone. Vegeta scowled and started to eat again." Don't do that to us Koneko, you nearly gave us all heart failure, when Vegeta-sama told us what you pulled.", Haruka scolded lightly. " I know Haruka-chan, Trunks-kun gave me a worse lecture than Okassan's.", replied Serenity referring to Queen Selenity. Trunks gave her the evil eye, and Serenity smirked.
Just as they were finished eating, Sailor Pluto stepped out of a portal. " Ossu, Minna-chan.",Pluto called bowing quickly to Serenity. "What's going on, Puu-chan?", asked Serenity, suddenly suspicious of her friends entrance. " I should be asking you, hime.", Pluto replied with a mischievous gleam in her eye. Serenity narrowed her eyes, that gleam was familiar..........
FLASHBACK (Serenity = Princess/ Selenity= Queen)
"I'm NOT marrying that baka.",Serenity-hime stated her voice full of venom. "Sumimasen, musume-chan. It can't be changed, I don't have the power to do so.",Selenity-sama replied. Serenity-hime scowled and stormed out of the room, running to get Pluto.Serenity-hime raced to her room, and slammed the door shut. " Puu-chan?! ", she called staring at the ceiling. " Hai, hime?", asked the mysterious Senshi popping out of a portal. " How can I get the engagement off?", Serenity-hime demanded, pacing around the room. " Well..... It is true that your Okassan, can't sop the wedding without good reason,but.", Pluto started. Serenity-hime groaned and flopped in the nearby chair." But.", Pluto continued. " But what?", asked Serenity-hime jumping out of the chair. " Maybe we can convince her that the ooji is unfit to be your fiancé', and therefore call off the wedding.", Pluto said a mischievous gleam in her eye. Serenity-hime nodded a small smirk gracing her face.
~ Time speeds up till 2 days later ~
" All hail the Ooji no Chikyuu!", the squire called out. The ooji stepped of the into the ballroom arrogantly. Just as he was halfway down the isle a 'reporter', with green hair and garnet eyes asked for a picture. Unknown to to him a magic force untied his boot laces, and the same force tied the boot laces together. As he started to move again he fell face down to the ground.He was left in a very compromising position, for someone to kick him in the rear. The humiliated ooji flipped over and looked at his shoes. The laces were tied together by magic. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the throne to see a smirking Hime looking right at him.
TIME SPEEDS UP TO DINNER THE NEXT DAY.
The Ooji yet again walked into the dining hall arrogantly. Serenity -hime scowled at the egotistical, Ooji before her. Endymion was seated next to the hime, who was extremely displeased that she had to be so close to the bakayaro.As speeches were made and dinner was served. A sandy-blonde hared 'boy' , with blue eyes served the ooji. As the platter was set down, The 'servant' took the lid off of it. When the ooji saw what it was he jumped out of his chair, screaming, slamming the lid back on it in the process. The dish was made out of a human skull with maggots, crawling in and out of it.Selenity-sama, jumped out of her chair demanding to know what the uproar was. "It's a- a -a-a s-skull.", stuttered Endymion, pointing to the dish. Selenity-sama made a mad dash for the platter and took off the lid. What she saw wasn't anything gross, but the ooji's favorite dish, chicken and rice. Selenity-sama got an angry look on her face, and faced the ooji. Endymion was stupefied, he looked at the platter and saw a delicious meal, and a VERY angry Queen. Endymion, glanced at Serenity-hime to see her smirking at him the same way as before, then he looked back at the Queen who was pointing out of the room.Endymion walked out of the room with as much dignity as he could muster, and was followed by an irate Selenity-sama.
END FLASHBACK
MY P.O.V.
"What do you mean.....", Serenity trailed off, wondering what she could know that would cause a big enough mess as it did in the past." The Golden Crystal no longer resides in Mamoru-san.", Pluto stated the gleam in her eye shining brighter than a star. Then Serenity got it. Pluto was talking about Trunks, and her self.
" Where is it?", demanded Haruka, slightly pissed off. "Well it's in-", Pluto started, but was cut off by Serenity. " Iie.", she stated a dangerous tone in her voice.
"But-.",started Pluto.
"Don't you even dare Sailor Pluto.", Serenity stated calmly, rising from her seat.
"They should-",Started Pluto once more, wincing inwardly at her hime's tone.
"As time guardian, you should know DAMN WELL what would happen!,I forbid it,"Serenity yelled at Pluto, pulling rank.
" Fine.", Pluto grumbled, tapping her staff on the ground. I cloud of smoke appeared behind Pluto, and molded to the form of a chair. Pluto sat down and frowned. Serenity inwardly groaned, she knew the time guardian didn't do social calls, and discussing her love life was definitely social. " What happened now, Puu-chan?", Serenity asked warily. " The Inners remember.", Pluto sighed. " And thats a bad thing how....?", Serenity prodded. " Rei-san punched out Mamoru-san.", Pluto replied smirking slightly. Haruka dropped her fork and let out a snort. Hotaru winced and smiled. Serenity started snorting, trying to hold in her laughter.Suddenly she burst out laughing holding her stomach. " Rei no baka actually h-hit Mamo-baka?", Serenity stuttered out still laughing. Suddenly she stopped laughing and narrowed her eyes. This business was still too social, Pluto's expression was far to serious for it to be trivial.
" What's going on, Pluto?",Serenity asked suspiciously. " The owner of the crystal needs at least a years worth of training, and battle tactics, but we don't have the time. You and the owner will need to go to Kami's lookout and use the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.", Pluto stated rubbing her temples. Serenity nodded her head in agreement. "Trunks-san, Serenity-hime needs to keep her training up. You will go with her.", Pluto stated solemnly, although if you looked hard enough you could see a twinkle in the time guardian's eye." NANI?!?!", barked Vegeta. " My sentiments exactly.", Haruka growled giving Trunks the evil eye.Trunks shrank back in his chair. "Vegeta-san should go in with her!", Haruka stated furiously. "Onna, she is the only one worth my time to spar with! Besides the human who holds that damned crystal is probably to pathetic to be bothered with!", Vegeta ranted. Serenity was covering up snickers, at her friends actions. " When do we leave?", Trunks asked warily, completely aware of the glares he was recieving. "You must go in the chamber at 1:45 today.," Pluto said standing up. " You can't be serious Setsuna!", Haruka yelled out. " I am serious Haruka, time is being disturbed, we don't have the time to argue.", Pluto stated firmly. Haruka sighed in defeat, Setsuna was in one of her moods, and it wasn't good to cross her. " Onna that pathetic human can train here!", Vegeta interrupted putting in a last effort. Pluto glared at him and, tapped her staff on the ground, and the smoke chair disappeared. "Ooji Vegeta, I mean no disrespect, but you shouldn't worry about Serenity-hime, if an enemy attacks, you will be needed here to watch your son.", Pluto stated cryptically. Vegeta paled slightly and leaned back in his seat. "Sets-chan, what's going to happen?", asked Bulma worriedly, glancing between her two sons and husband. "Nothing yet B-chan, only time will tell.", Pluto said softly creating a portal. " Ja, Puu-chan!", Serenity called." Ja Minna-san.", Pluto replied stepping through the portal.
"So, Serenity-san who DOES have the crystal?", Goku asked scratching his head. Serenity frowned and ChiChi whipped out her frying pan. She whapped Goku with it mumbling," Baka." Serenity shook her head at the pair, and returned to her seat. " Um, Minna-chan?", Bulma interrupted waving her hand in the air. Everyone stopped what they were doing to glance at the her. " I have two announcements to make.", Bulma started. " Well , what are they Onna!?" , Vegeta demanded. " Well number one school starts next week, and I've enrolled Serenity-chan, and Hotaru-chan.", Bulma stated nervously." And Haruka your a student teacher in music, and Drivers Ed. class.", she continued. "NANI?!?!", exclaimed Serenity. "Kuso.", muttered Hotaru. "Watch it Hota-chan, If Michiriu were here you'd be grounded.", Haruka warned. Hotaru gave Haruka an evil glare."What are my classes?", Serenity asked placing her forehead on the cold wood table. " You've got the same as Trunks.", Bulma started," And Hotaru yours are the same as Gohan's." Hotaru nodded sullenly, and Serenity grunted in response. " All right.", Haruka stated smiling slightly." Oh, yeah you would smile, you LIKE what you're doing.", Serenity grumbled, glaring at Haruka.
" What's the other thing?", Gohan asked interrupting, the two. " Well the next thing is ......... We'rehavingaformalpartyheretomorowateightocklock,andyou'veallgottabe there.", Bulma said very quickly. " Excuse me?",asked Kuririn. Trunks groaned and put his head in his hands," I'm not going Kassan, I hate those things." " What did she just say?", Serenity asked poking him in the ribs. "There's a formal party tomorrow, for a bunch of other snotty companies,that want me to marry their daughters, and she wants us all to go so she won't get bored.", Trunks translated. "Do we have to wear dresses?", asked Serenity narrowing her eyes. Bulma nodded in agreement. " Nope, I'm not going, I can't spar in a dress, Hell I can't even run!", Serenity stated firmly.Vegeta snorted knowing it was useless to fight his mate."Bulma-chan, Gomen but Goku, Gohan , Goten and I are going to the Kami house.", ChiChi stated regretfully."18 and I have something to do tomorrow.", Kuririn told her blushing slightly. Bulma nodded " Well, Trunks your definitely going, you'll have to run C.C. all by yourself someday.", Bulma said cheerfully, Trunks groaned. " And Serenity your going too, Infact Trunks should be your escort." , she continued, smiling slyly." Iie.", Serenity stated coldly.
{Hai, you are. You and Trunks thought I'd send Vegeta after you, I just came myself. What a Kawaii couple you two make.}, Bulma told Serenity in private thought speech.{ Don't you dare say a word. Vegeta will kill him, I'm still not going.}, Serenity replied privatly. {Maybe I should tell them Trunks has the crystal?}, Bulma stated smirking.Serenity's eyes flashed.{How do you know?}, Serenity demanded, her eyes flashing dangerously. Which by the way didn't go unnoticed by the others, along with all the other facial expressions the two were exchanging. It looked like Bulma was having the time of her life, and Serenity was going to kill her for it." Does anyone else feel like we're being left out of a conversation?", Gohan asked eyeing the two. Most of them nodded."Kassan's tricking her into going,", Trunks pointed out.{I did do research in school you know, The Golden Crystal belongs to the kobito of Serenity. And I'm assuming since Trunks and yourself are together, he got the Golden Crystal right?Can I tell ChiChi?}, Bulma explained and asked smugly. {Hai, but only if she doesen't say a word.}, Serenity stated defeatedly. { So maybe I should tell Haruka and Vegeta of your exploits this morning, and your going to be ALONE with him for a year.}, Bulma stated slyly.
" Iie, don't you dare, Bulma!", Serenity yelled her eyes growing wide, and her eyes flashing silver.She had been scraping a long nail on the table peeling up strips of wood. "Well, then?", Bulma asked smirking like her husband. " Fine.", growled Serenity giving Bulma a death glare that would have made grown men cry. Serenity's eyes flashed silver again and suddenly her nails grew to impossible length, and sliced THROUGH the table. Gohan tensed up, and prepared to power up.He was caught off guard when Bulma chuckled,"Senshi's honor." "If Koneko's going we should too", Haruka interjected," besides something tells me she just got blackmailed.", she continued chuckling.
Serenity glanced at her watch it was 1:40pm. "Kuso, Bulma take Haruka and Hotaru shopping,they can't design clothes like I can, now we've got to go. If we're late Pluto will have my head.", Serenity said standing up. " Chibi-Trunks, make sure you carry that thing I gave to you at all times, and keep your shield up always.", she continued hugging the smaller boy. "Ja ne Minna," Trunks stated standing up, and being glomped by Bulma in the process.Suddenly Shiro appeared and sat next to Serenity." You know what to do. If something desprate happens, transport both of yourselves to me immediately.", Serenity stated seriously. ~Hai, hime-chan good luck~the wolf stated walking to Chibi-Trunks and sitting infront of him.
" I still can't get used to that talking animal.", Kuririn muttered. " Oh, Oneagi Kuririn-koi what about Puar, and the rest of them at Master Roshi's.", 18 pointed out." Yeah, well they won't tear me apart with one command!", Kuririn muttered eyeing Shiro " Sayoonara!", Serenity started, " Oh, and Bulma if you value your living existence not one word!", she finished glaring at Bulma who started laughing. " See ya Koneko,", Haruka said smiling at Serenity then scowling at Trunks. " Haruka, Knock it off.", Serenity scolded. Vegeta waved two fingers and glared at his son." Vegeta-san, you too.", Serenity stated, placing a hand on Trunks' shoulder. " Trunks-kun, picture where we're going, I don't have a clue,and if we end up on the Moon it's your fault.", Serenity warned. Trunks pictured Kami's lookout and the picture flashed in Serenity's mind. Serenity closed her eyes and a silver glow surrounded them both. Serenity mumbled the words, and in a flash they were gone." Be careful Serenity-hime.", whispered Hotaru who was on her way out of the room.
This is the end of the 9th chapter! Woo-hoo It's like 42 Pages long! My longest chapter yet. I was wondering if I should make the Inners good again. Lemme know in a vote. Maybe if ya'll are nice I'll give you all some bonus romance between two people, other than Trunks/Usa . See if you can guess who it is?
Hey everybody read Ms. T 's fic! Thanx to all you wonderful people who reviewed, and said nice things. I love you all! Boo-hoo school starts again in three weeks. I hope you all enjoyed this! And if you didn't let me know what I can do to fix it. CONSTRUCTIVE criticism is welcomed, because it can only help you improve. I know my grammar sux, but I can't help it. I try to at least spell everything right.
Any and all Japanese I used came from Eternal SailorM's 'A Little Japanese'.
Much Love,
SerenityMoon
