She remembered that day, the first day she had had to stand guard at the door. She had spied on her friends, and had seen what she was seeing now.
The four inner princesses were being comforted by Princess Stacy, for their fiances had disappeared a week ago. Princess Serenity and Prince Darien were walking hand-in-hand through the garden, as were Princess Michelle and Princess Alexandra.
"Susan! What are you doing away from your post?" Said a sharp voice, tearing her away from her thoughts.
She spun around, ready to attack if the person was evil, but the face she saw was not what she was excepting.
"Susan! What are you doing away from your post? You know you are not supposed to leave your post!" Her mother repeated angrily.
Behind her mother, Sailor Pluto saw Queen Serenity, and behind Serenity were the Queens of all of the planets, so she passed by Queen Susan and bowed before her Queen.
"Princess Susan, you should answer your mother." Queen Serenity told her.
Sailor Pluto knew that in order to explain to them, she had to tell them everything that had happened, and all though that went back on everything she had been taught, Queen Serenity's spirit had told her to do so. But first, she had to make sure she had the right day.
"Queen Terra, have the Prince's four guards disappeared?" Queen Terra nodded. "Queen Serenity, is the Princess's Coming of Age ball tonight?"
"Yes, it is, but you should know that. Now, I suggest you tell your mother why you disobeyed her."
"Yes my Queen." Then she turned to her mother. "I did not disobey you."
Queen Susan looked shocked for a moment before saying, "Of course you have! I told you to stay at the gate while I was gone, but here you are, standing in front of me! You have disobeyed me!"
"I have not. Princess Susan is guarding the gate as we speak. Queen Susan, you of all people should know about time travel. If I had disobeyed you, than maybe I could have done something about what is going to happen tonight. If I had disobeyed you, than maybe I wouldn't have watched the inner princesses being killed by the hands of their loves. Maybe I wouldn't have watched Sailor Uranus take the attack meant for Sailor Neptune. Maybe I wouldn't have seen Sailor Neptune die moments later. Maybe I wouldn't have watched as Sailor Saturn used her full power, killing herself. Maybe I wouldn't have seen Queen Beryl take Prince Darien, or seen Princess Serenity jump after them. Maybe I wouldn't have seen Queen Beryl kill both of them in a jealous rage. If I had disobeyed you, maybe none of that would have happened!" Sailor Pluto, for the first time in a countless number of years, broke down and cried. Queen Susan ran to her side and comforted her.
"You must be joking! All of that could not have happened!" Queen Serenity shouted.
As soon as Sailor Pluto had herself under control again, she answered her Queen.
"Oh, I wish it had not happened, my Queen, but it did!"
"Did you come back so that we could fix it?" Her mother asked her.
"No! You must not try to fix it! If you do, then Destiny will be destroyed! Mother, I know that one of our most sacred rules is to not tell anyone about the future, but I must! I have the permission from my Queen. Do not look so shocked Queen Serenity. It was you who gave me permission. Now, let me tell you the story, but first, Queen Terra, would you please go get King Endymion, it is of great importance that he is here." As soon as the Queen and King of Earth had returned, Sailor Pluto preceded to tell the whole story, from the fall of the Moon Kingdom, to the death of Amethyst.

The Queens of the planets were shocked to hear of what had happened to their children, and though they wished that it had not had to happen that way, they knew they must not mess with Destiny.
"Susan, my child, tell me, why did you come back?" Her mother asked her.
"You must all come with me and crown your children so that they can rule over their planets." She created a doorway, and motioned for the Queens and King to walk through, and they did.
