~Just a FYI.. I made it where Hotaru has two Spirits in her body.. Of course Hotaru/Princess Saturn.. Then The Senshi/Planet Guardian.. I made it this way because I can better discribe the difference between Hotaru and Saturn.. The sweet innocent Hotaru-chan and the Serious, and sometimes careless Saturn..~
Chapter Two: Reunions
Hotaru quickly adapted to her new surroundings. She always did, yet still disappointed about not being able to meet Chibi Usa. Being her best friend in the Twentieth Century, it would have been nice to see her again.
Though, with all the new changes with her, she was rarely allowed to go anywhere and this made her grow short and frustrated. It could of been those mood swings she was told about by Michiru but she concluded it was just a mixture of both. She also though, with Neo-Queen Serenity with child as well, was she being treated the same way? If so Hotaru could relate.
This treatment continued for a month before she realized she was fed up with it. Sitting in her room, she watched the sun setting in the West out of the corner of her eye she saw her Planet Guardian looking to her. Glaive in hand with a short tempered look upon her face, "You let them push you around Hotaru?"
This made her jump slightly, "They say its for the best. You know they care for our safety."
Her other self didn't look satisfied as she shook her head. The silence remained as the Guardian looked to be thinking, "I promised Galaxia I would not appear Hotaru but I cannot stand in the shadows of your mind while you let ourselves be led around like we are incompetent!" this made Hotaru jump and look to the door making sure that no one heard them, "And what am I to do?"
The Guardian pointed her hand to the window and it opened swiftly, "Go before they come in to check on you.." Hotaru looked to the window, "Run away?" she asked and her guardian nodded, "Go to the Palace.. The King and Queen will be happy to see you."
It was odd arguing with herself but she grabbed her coat from her chair and slid down the gutter pipe to the ground. Her room being on the second floor. Her breathing quickened, with her body always being fragile that was a tough task to do. Yet she had gotten this far and saw her other self disappear at the window with a smile on her face.
It was now or never and for her it was now. So quickly she took to the bush and kept as much out of site as possible. She did not even let strangers see her. It wasn't until she was standing face to face with the Crystal Palace is when she was fully in view. No one was around it and she walked up to the wall.. Well what it looked like was a path that continued into the Palace. Yet their was no door to continue on. She pressed her hand to the crystal monument and for a moment it remained their. That was until her hand fell through making Hotaru arch a brow but walked through it not really knowing how the technology of this place worked yet.
Looking behind her she let out a sigh, knowing it was against the agreement that her Guardian set, but she didn't know why. She had no answers that satisfied her now as to why she was in the position she was in now. With that in her mind she concluded nothing was wrong with her actions and continued on.
She did not get far though seeing two guards much taller then she was, each of them placing glaive in her direction, "I would not do that if I were you." she whispered under her breath. The guards ignored this, "who are you? And how did you breach the Palace Walls?"
Her eyes glowed purple and the same aura surrounded her body as she instantly became Sailor Saturn; her silence glaive held in hands instinctively sliced the others into two like butter. [ What? I didn't mean to transform.. ] she thought watching from the back of her mind but a second voice replied to her thoughts [ I know I forced yourself to. You'll understand shortly. ]
The Guards were speechless as they feel to one knee, "Forgive us.. We didn't know that you were a Senshi." Saturn scuffed as she walked past them continuing to where her instincts lead her to. Finding herself in front of a door that was opened as she approached and it looked to be a Throne Room.. Although nothing like her own back on Saturn she could tell.
The doors opened without the help of anyone as she was facing the Royal Court. To her though, it was the Inner Senshi known as, Senshi Venus, Mars, Mercury, and Jupiter. They all had smiles upon their faces giving her at the same time a simple nod in greeting. She was polite and followed suit to them.
They all have grown up very much. Although Saturn was hoping for their bright and cheery welcome filled with gossip and giggles, it was more sophisticated and formal. Behind her without a doubt, was Neo-Queen Serenity and King Endymion. Both were standing and with gentle smiles across their faces. Serenity was much further along with child then Saturn had thought; in fact she looked as though she would explode at any time. The doors shut behind her as she stepped in further.
Saturn kneeled to the King and Queen and they both in sync nodded to acknowledge her kneel. As she stood to her feet Serenity broke the silence, "What brings you from the Valley of the Dead?"
Saturn closed her eyes as to think of her excuse not really wishing to speak of current events, "I was visiting Neptune and Uranus so I thought to visit you all as well. As you know it has been only too long." they all nodded in reply to her.
"So true; I am only disappointed you have come to early to se...." The queen was so shortly interrupted by a burst through the Doors.
Three figures stood at the door arms crossed; their gaze shifting to Saturn who avoided to look back at them, "We thought we would find you here.. Do you have any idea what you are doing?!" The Center Fighter with black hair that was pulled back in a pony tail. They were all dressed in leather; black in color. The designs varied yet they were basically shorts, high cut top, and knee high boots.
Serenity looked a little taken back at the shortness of temper, "what is the meaning of you manners Star Fighter?"
The Fighter to the left with white hair with the same basic hair style shook her head, "This is none of your concern your highness."
Saturn shook her head not wanting to lose her temper couldn't take it, "So! Did Michiru and Haruka call you when I wasn't in my room?! Are you three my wardens to keep me in line if I cross it?! How am I suppose to understand how you guys are treating me if I don't understand why I even fell for Galaxia's excuse for my burden I carry now?!" she finally had to stop for breath gasping from both anger and loss of breath.
Hotaru spoke in her mind with Saturn, [don't get too upset, the body is fragile enough as it is] Saturn argued back with her other self, [I know the capabilities of this body]. Hotaru became silent again as Star Fighter headed towards Saturn, "I told Galaxia you were better off on Sagittarius Star Zero yet she thought it be best to keep you with friends."
The Inner Senshi took a step towards Saturn, "What are you all speaking of?" Venus asked them all four of them curious to the answer. The King and Queen just stood back to watch.
The same Star Fighter grabbed Saturn and she positioned her glaive at his neck making him freeze in his tracks, "Release me Seiya.. Senshi or not I will protect myself." Fighter did not release her laughing at her statement. She pressed the Glaive closer to his flesh, "My final warning." By this time the other two fighters had come from behind them both and helped to pull the glaive away from her grasp leaving Fighter both shaken but not losing her grip on Saturn, "Thank you Healer... Maker." With this she started to struggle more without her only defense that was taken from her.
Just then Two more figures entered, it was Neptune and Uranus. Unlike the Starlights they kneeled once they came into view of The King and Queen, "Forgive our intrusion my Queen.. Also forgive out lack of information we were feeding to you about the current events. We still can't tell you and I hope you will understand this. You will be informed when the time is right." Uranus spoke not looking up as she continued to kneel. After a few moments of silence she stood up and so did Neptune. This was the que to leave as the starlights followed the two out Fighter still dragging Saturn as she continued to struggle followed by her screaming, "Release me! Michiru! Haruka! You have betrayed your leader! Following orders from another! How can you do this to me?!" the same words echoed down the hall until then silence filled the throne room..
It remained silent until Jupiter looked to Serenity, "Should we just let them go like that Highness?" Serenity closed her eyes walking to the throne just a few feet behind her taking a seat, "I believe we did the right thing. Although the actions of the Starlights, Uranus, and Neptune are rather odd.." she paused to open her eyes and look to th doors as her eyes narrowed, "Saturn did not seem herself at all and so until we are told the facts of what is happening. It was the right thing to do." placing her right hand upon her belly she smiled thinking that it wouldn't be much longer now.
~~~~~~~~~
Saturn was dragged until she was brought back to the house of Michiru and Haruka but she only screamed until she couldn't do so anymore. About half way back to the house. It was then that Fighter released her. With that she flew and almost hit the wall of the formal family room, "How dare you embarrass me in front of the King and Queen like that! Galaxia is not telling me what I need to know! I wish someone would!"
Just then she turned back into hotaru as she feel to her knees exhausted from today's events.. More then she was accustomed to.. It was then that she started to cry, "she's angry Ruka-poppa.. She wants to know.. I'm scared though." she let out a sniffle, "Saturn scares me sometimes when she shows her anger. Yet.. I can see why she is angry.. I want to know too.. What's happening to us, why was this so important that we must carry this burden?" (Us & we meaning Saturn and Hotaru.. Remember Two separate souls into one body)
Haruka could never stand when her little Taru cried so she walked over to her and embraced her, "alright.. I'll tell you everything, just hush your crying my little one.."
***Well I hope I didn't confuse you too much with the split personality of Saturn there.. You might want to go back and read it a few times to fully understand it.. If not GREAT! R & R Please and I will put up the other chapters real quick here.. ****
