AN: Well I hadn't intended this to go beyond chapter one, but many of you wanted to see another chapter added. So here it is. This one occurs when Saturn sacrificed herself to fight Pharaoh 90. Just what happened while she was inside of it? And what happened once Sailor Moon had entered as well? Enough from me, onto the story!
Sailor Moon does not belong to me in any way, shape, or form.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Sailor Moon. Thank you for protecting my body."
"Sailor Saturn!"
"Hotaru-chan!"
"Hotaru!"
"I'm no longer Hotaru. I'm the only one who can save this planet from the Silence."
"Wait! I'll go…"
"No, the only way to destroy Pharaoh 90 is to enter the center and destroy everything. You don't have enough power since Pharaoh 90 is using the Sacred Cup, unless you're Super Sailor Moon."
"What will happen to you after you destroy Pharaoh 90?"
"The reason why I'm the sacrificing soldier is because I received the power to destroy…but when the time comes to destroy, I myself…"
"No!"
"Goodbye…"
I jumped into Pharaoh 90. He was strong, but I was stronger. I held the power of death in my hand and no one can withstand that, no matter how strong they are.
I would bring an end to what I had helped bring here. If anyone was going to silence this planet, it would be me and me alone. Not anyone, or anything, other could hold that duty. After all, I had to save Chibiusa-chan and the others.
As I entered the core of Pharaoh 90, I closed my eyes and let my power begin to resurface. I would die, yes, there was no arguments there. But I had lived a, relatively, good life as Tomoe Hotaru. So, I was used as a host for a daimon, there was nothing I could do about that. But in the end, if it wasn't for that, I , Sailor Saturn, may not have awakened.
I cried out as my powers began to take their effect on my body as well as Pharaoh 90, but I held my eyes tightly shut and let my memories take me. When I died, I wanted to be thinking of the good times, not the bad.
I remembered the day I met Chibiusa-chan. Right away I could sense something different about her. But every time I began to think about it, Mistress 9 would take over an become a little stronger. Although I knew she was somehow different, I never thought Chibiusa-chan would be the key to awakening Mistress 9.
Once again, pain shot through my body, causing me to cry out. This was it, I couldn't take anymore. I felt my body start to relax, death had a hold of me now, there was nothing I could do. "Goodbye…" I whisper.
But then I feel a warm light. The feeling of warmth soon spreads through my body. Then I hear a voice speak to me.
"Hotaru-chan. Everything's going to be ok now."
I slowly open my eyes and see a young woman. She's wearing a flowing white gown and upon her head is the mark of the Silver Millennium, a gold crescent moon. Her deep blue eyes gaze at me with such care that I can't help but smile faintly.
"Queen Serenity…?" I quietly ask.
The woman shakes her head but continues to smile at me. "No, not Queen , but Princess. I am the future Queen, Princess Serenity."
"Princess…" I say quietly. "I have always wanted to meet you in person."
"I know, Saturn, I know. Now you've done your part to help. Now its my turn." she said as she held out her hand to me.
I slowly reach out to her and as our hands touch, there is an explosion. I catch one last glimpse of her. I'm surprised to see her gown turn into the fuku of Super Sailor Moon. She looked so tired and exhausted. 'You're the Princess?' I try to say, but nothing comes out. I try to say something, anything, but no sound comes out. The crescent moon on Sailor Moons tiara glows brilliantly, then my mind goes black…

"Hotaru, time to get up!" Setsuna yelled from the bottom of the stairs.
Hotaru rolled over, throwing the blankets over her head. She buried her face in her pillow. "Mmmm mm mmmm."
"What?" Setsuna questioned.
Hotaru lifted her head. "I said, five more minutes, Setsuna-momma!"
"You're getting to be too much like Haruka." Setsuna said, but there was a laugh in her tone that let Hotaru know she was just joking.
"Hey Shorty, better get up before Setsuna starts on us both again." Haruka said from Hotaru's doorway.
Hotaru sat up. "Alright, Haruka-poppa. I'm up, I'm up."
Haruka smiled and held out her hand. "Well lets go downstairs then."
Hotaru put her hand out then quickly pulled it back, remembering what happened in her dream.
Haruka slowly pulled her hand back. "Hotaru, what's wrong?"
"…I just had another dream last night…that's all." the younger girl replied quietly.
"Another one?" Haruka asked. Then she smiled and sat next to her daughter. "If it was a dream, then you have nothing to worry about. Besides, if it was like the other one you had, then it happened in the past, right?"
Hotaru nodded, "Yes, but still…"
Haruka ruffled Hotaru's hair then stood up. "Then cheer up, Shorty. Don't live in the past."
Hotaru smiled then stood up as well. "Alright, Haruka-poppa. Now lets go. Setsuna-momma's probably about to come up here and give us another one of her lectures."
"Yikes, that's a fate worse than death! We'd better hurry then!" Haruka said laughing.
Hotaru laughed and ran past Haruka, "I'll beat you down there!"
"No fair! You cheated!" Haruka then ran after her daughter to join the others downstairs.
