Hey, this is my first fan fic here. My friend encouraged me to join after
reading another one of my fics. So here I am. I actually just decided to
make a major change in the plot line today during school (when I should
have been thinking. Lol) Stick with it for me.
This fic takes place at a very specific time, so give me just a minute to fill you in. After the Supers and before the Stars series there is a little mini series in which Serena becomes Eternal Sailor Moon. In the beginning, someone awakens Nephrenia from her sleep in the New Moon. Fast forward In the end Serena sends Nephrenia back to her childhood.
I thought that a fic that took place right after that mini series would be really cool. It's been brewing in my head for a long time too. So, feel free to flame or compliment as you please, I will aprreciate it. What will really help is if you tell me specifically what you do and don't like. I would have used the Japanese names for this, but it gets too confusing for those who don't know them too well.
Thanx! ~Saint Kitty-chan~
~*~ Prologue ~*~
Nephrenia sighed as she glanced at her mirror. She remembered the first time she received this gift from her subjects, in her last life. She knew, though her subjects did not, that this mirror was an embodiment of vanity and had strange powers, but she tried not to think about it too much.
She sized herself up in the mirror. She was wearing a dark navy dress and a lacy white underdress that peeped out of the draping sleeves and underneath the dress. There was lacing up the front of the dress and sleeves. As she adjusted her dress, her image in the mirror began to swirl.
She sighed again. The mirror liked to temp her to reclaim her other life. But the image it revealed surprised her. She saw Serena! She was lying snugly in bed with her little black cat curled up next to her. The moonlight shone on her delicate features from her window.
Just as Nephrenia began to wonder why her mirror showed her this, four figures materialized around her bed. They were all young women, a little older than her guardians. Speaking of, where were they? she wondered.
"Is this really the one that the master was talking about? I can't believe that is the girl who possesses the Silver Crystal," said one. She had dark brown hair pulled back into wispy ponytail, but even when pulled back it cascaded down to the floor like water. She was wearing a large, pale blue cloth wrapped around her body in a style similar to a sari, and it had gauze like quality that seemed almost transparent in the moonlight.
"You're right, Griffelle. She seems awful young," said another. She had light blonde hair that flowed down to the floor without restriction. She was wearing an outfit similar to that of the first, only this one was a very light pink and it was fashioned more like a robe. "What do you think, Drae?"
"Well, Pheonessa, I was expecting some sort of princess, not a civilian like her," said the third. She had white hair, and the front that was pulled into two French braids that met at the back of her head, where a long white ribbon tied the two braids together and trailed all the way down to the floor with the rest of her hair. Her outfit consisted of the same material as the first two except it was white, but it was two separate pieces: a long dress that brushed the floor and a blouse that was too large in the sleeves and too tight in the torso. "Never the less, we must carry out our master's orders. Sphinette?"
"I am ready." Now a girl with jet-black hair, harnessed only by a silver circlet, dressed in a black cloth tied around her neck like a halter-top, answered. In an instant she transformed into-Nephrenia couldn't believe her eyes-Serena! The woman called Drae picked up the real Serena, then she and the other two disappeared. The fake crawled into Serena's bed like nothing had happened. Luna hadn't even woken up!
Nephrenia swallowed hard and wondered if she was hallucinating. Suddenly the surface of the mirror took on a liquid quality and the room disappeared in a ripple like a drop of water shattering the image on the surface of a pond. "What the...?" She tried to pull away as it reached out and engulfed her. She closed her eyes and gasped for air as it pulled her in. Nephrenia felt like she was falling foreword, but when she opened her eyes she found that she was on a deserted city street at night.
"Where am I?" Nephrenia asked her self as she looked around. "This is... Serena's city," she realized. She discovered that her clothes had taken on a more appropriate form for the time and place of her arrival. When she finished sizing up the situation, she set a brisk pace down the street into the night.
Nephrenia knew that she had to find the Sailor Senshi and warn them imediately. But...would they believe her?
