Changed Destiny

Chapter 2

The moon princess and her two feline guardians reappear in the ancient palace of the long dead Silver Millennium.

Usagi is surprised as she walks down the halls of her old home, Luna and Artemis dutifully trailing after her. She reaches the place where her mothers hologram had appeared when she had last visited. With the inners.

Feeling a sob in her throat, Usagi kneels down towards the palace in a sign of respect to her dead mother.

A hand touches her shoulder, and Usagi jumps, surprised.

She turns around, simultaneously transforming into Serenity, and is met by the face of her beautiful mother.

"Are you real?" She asks after a few minutes.

Her mothers ghost nods, looking at her with pity, but also in joy of seeing her once more.

Serenity hugs her mother tightly; though surprised at first that she can hug a ghost.

"I missed you, mother."

"And I you, my beautiful daughter."

"Why did the crystal bring us here?" Serenity nods to the two cats who were over come with awe of seeing their monarch before them once again and proceeded to bow to her.

"Hello, Luna and Artemis. You may stop bowing." Queen Serenity says with a smile, and the two felines rise.

"I am to tell you three about the dimension that you'll be going to. Come, sit." Queen Serenity motions to a bench near a shimmering crystal water fountain.

Serenity obliges.

"This Earth that you're going to is very different from yours. You see, on their Earth long ago, an evil parasitic alien race called the Goua'ld took hosts in humans in their ancient times and still do today. These Goua'ld impersonate some Gods and Goddesses from old myths and legends. Using the ancient humans religions, they enslaved them and took some to other planets to worship and serve them, using an object they have that they call the Stargate. It takes people from one location to another, where they exit another Stargate, no matter how far away. In an uprising, the Goua'lds human slaves buried the Stargate on Earth. In 1928, the Stargate was uncovered. After many years of attempting to make the Stargate work, a man named Dr. Daniel Jackson figured out that the symbols on the cartouches on it were signs of stars a few years ago. There are uncounted Stargate addresses. Since then, the U.S. military has been sending teams of military personnel and other individuals to explore new worlds. They have encountered humans as well as aliens on their exploits. You will be in a military base in the United States, it is located in Cheyenne Mountain, Colorado." Queen Serenity's information had taken a while to tell her beloved daughter.

"What am I to do Mother?" Serenity asked, having taken in all of the information.

"My daughter, you will help the humans on this Earth as you wished. You will be able to prepare for the fight while you are in this world. I wish you luck, Serenity."

"I will come back and free my friends after I have prepared for the fight. I will make you proud mother. The Crystal is already calling us. I love you. Until we me again, farewell."

She takes herself and her guardians.

In a flash of light, Usagi, the cats, and the Starlights vanish and the ancient Moon Kingdom starts to fade once more. Awaiting the return of its princess.

"Old friends, I want to thank you for coming with me." Usagi whispers to the felines.

"Usagi we hope you know that we are always here for you." Luna says.

"She's right Usagi, we'll always help you." Artemis adds.

"Thank you both." Usagi says with tears beginning to fall again.

"I just can't help feeling a little sad. They're all gone. I couldn't help my friends when they needed me to. It's all my fault." Usagi starts to sink to her knees, sobbing.

Luna says, "Usagi, there was nothing you could have done. You couldn't have known that he would betray you."

"Luna's right. Nothing could have been done to prevent this. Obviously, Pluto didn't foresee this or she would have told you and the other scouts." Artemis says.

"Thank you two. I know that I have to go on, if I am to ever get my friends back." Usagi's tears start to fade. She whispers vehemently, "I swear by the moon and my title, Endymion the Prince of Earth, will pay for his treasonous crimes against the Silver Alliance."

Her words echo in the void as she stands up and calls the Silver Crystal to her.

The crystal tells them to go through the Time Gates. Usagi obeys and motions for Luna and Artemis to follow her.

"Now Serenity, what ever made you think that you could escape me?" Mamoru's voice echoes suddenly.

Usagi looks around, slightly nervous.

All of a sudden, one of her senshis attacks hit her. Luna and Artemis gasp and watch as their hime gets slammed into the floor.

"You know Usagi, one thing that I discovered is that I now have the power to control the attacks of the senshi that I have destroyed.

"Luna, Artemis! Go to the gates and activate them the way the Silver Crystal told us! I'll hold him off!

"You honestly think that you can fight against me? I highly doubt that." With that said Minako's Venus-Love-Me chain circles around her throat.

"Usako, tell me, how does it feel to be killed by your protectors attacks?" Mamoru asks this with a smirk.

"I don't know and I have no intention of finding out Mamoru." She says this and suddenly, her moon mark appears, blinding Mamoru.

"Luna, Artemis, go through now!" Luna and Artemis obey and Usagi goes through right after them.

After they leave the void is once again empty of anything except its fog, one pissed off earth prince, and the Time Gates.
