~Well here it is the chapter that will turn the events in the story.. Sorry no classic inner senshi and Serenity stuff.. I like focusing on the Outers and Starlights.. Yet you do get the pieces here and there~

~~~~Four months later~~~~

Hotaru by this time become quite large even for her size and petite frame. Yet Ami had assured the others she was alright on every weekly visit. Also; her split personality has been more shifty lately.

One minute she would be laughing at something Haruka had joked about yet the next minute she would go silent and lock herself in her room for days at a time. At first they all assumed it was due to mood swings. No one had ever lived with a pregnant woman before so what would they know. Although the isolation occurred more and more as the months progressed. They wondered what she was doing in her room and if she was alright.

To be honest Hotaru wished to be alone; to think about things alone with her counterpart. The due date was less then a month away and she knew what would happen once her child would be born. She had seen it in a vision a month back.

~~~~Vision Flashback~~~~

Hotaru stood upon the cliff that overlooked Crystal Tokyo, or what was left of it in her Senshi Uniform. The town and the people burned into ashes. The Palace was being held together by the four legendary senshi (yeah for people unfamiliar with that.. it is the Inner Senshi). Over the City of Crystal Tokyo stood two people. Well to be more clear; a young child and another who was clad in the shadows cast by the flames. Although the person was not seen the aura surrounding her was familiar to Hotaru as her eyes widened, "it can't be". Hotaru couldn't believe her eyes on who she saw and didn't want to believe what happened next. That shadowed figure unsheathed a sword. It was made out of gold and silver. The etched markings again unseen. Yet with a quick slash. The young child went limp in mid air as the blood descended to the earth below. With this hotaru woke up with her breath quickened and sweat covering her body.

~~~~End of Flashback~~~~

This would haunt her dreams to where she slept very little. The girl she saw.. She would know soon. This was why she would seclude herself to think. She would have to change that vision at all costs even if it risked her life.

She walked out of her room looking to Haruka and Michiru who were both reading books. Seiya was talking with Taiki about something like Yaten having a crush on the Mailman. Of course he said it joking to Yaten who didn't find it funny at all, "Oji-sans.. Ruka.. Michi.. Can someone take me to see Chibi-usa please?"

All five looked up and blinked at her at her request, and Seiya shook his head, "Taru-chan it isn..." she butted in becoming short, "I don't care! I would risk everything for her! My first friend!"

Michiru shook her head, "She is only six months old Taru and she wouldn't remember you anyway. Taru looked to the ground like it was a mixture of hate and sadness, "I know that.. But I need to see her. It would make me feel better.. I have been cooped up in here like you wished it to be.. All I ask is this.. I'll ask nothing more."

All five looked at each other and passed what seemed like confusing looks.. You could tell Haruka was not for the idea but Hotaru was right and nodded, "I'll take you Taru-chan. So go get your coat; its cold out."

Hotaru cracked a smile and nodded pacing herself up to her room and when she came back down Haruka was already waiting for her at the door.. Michiru giving Haruka a lecture before allowing her to open the door, "Now Haruka don't let her wander off alone and also don't walk too fast.. She always tries to keep up and it will over work her." she then looked to Taru and smiled gently, "Now you know that they will know you secret too.. A secret you have been hiding can't be hidden that easy now." Hotaru nodded and hugged her as best she could.

Haruka drove there not seeing a purpose in walking or taking the train. They had to walk four blocks due to rules on entering the Palace. Although they were not questioned and let in once they showed their Transformation pins signifying them being Senshi. They were met by King Endymion. Both bowed and looked up to him as he spoke, "Hotaru I had no idea." he of course spoke of her pregnancy being rude to speak of such a thing so informal. She nodded to say yes, "I had my reasons Highness but I actually came to see Chibi-usa and pay my respects to Serenity."

He nodded as the senshi stood up and followed Endymion to what looked like the nursery. It was just like Hotaru would picture Chibi-usa staying in. It was of course pink with crescent moon wallpaper along the top and bottom of the walls. Rabbit stuffed animals of all colors, sizes and shapes. One could tell it was Serenity who decorated the room. Serenity was rocking the bundle Hotaru knew was Chibi-usa when she looked up to the three who just entered and a smiles that was already on her face widened. Both Hotaru and Haruka kneeled down to the ground even though Hotaru found it difficult to do so without wanting to fall over.

Silence filled the room as both senshi returned to their feet, Hotaru having to get help from Haruka, "Congratulations Serenity.. Endymion." Hotaru said sweetly before she turned and started to walk out of the room. Haruka nodded to say the same in her own way before following at Hotaru's heels, "That was it. I wasted the gas to say that?" she said it as calm as possible yet you could tell she was slightly shocked and annoyed. Hotaru only nodded.

When both returned home and Haruka relived the story to everyone else they were just as shocked. Yet Hotaru did not explain herself or her actions, "Chibi-usa is only a baby.. It couldn't of been her.. She only a baby." she said quietly to herself as she sat in the corned reading the French Revolution book she had read many times before.

~Well Getting better now huh.. Well not total action but like I said everything is falling into place.~
