"The Chibi Senshi and Chibi Knights?" the question was nearly shouted from all of the senshi in the room as they looked at the fourteen girls, nine boys and one gray kitten, who they all recognized as Diana.
"Diana, where have you been?" Chibi-Usa scolded her kitten as she scooped her up into her arms.
"With Sailor Pluto, Small Lady, as you neglected to bring me with you," Diana scolded back, only in a somewhat harsher tone, one that had Chibi-Usa scrunching up her face in embarrassment.
"Gomen."
"Small Lady, how many times do we have to have this conversation?" the tallest of the girls asked, as she rolled deep blue eyes and pushed raven colored hair out of her face.
"Sere..." Chibi-Usa started before she stopped herself, sending Sailor Pluto a look.
"You can say her name, Small Lady," Pluto assured her. "They're all going to be introduced in a moment."
"Serene!" Chibi-Usa whined as the obviously older girl frowned.
"Princess Serenity Small Lady Usagi Chiba," the older girl named Serene admonished. All of the elder girls and boys were surprised to hear that tone used with Chibi-Usa, let alone the fact that Serene had used Chibi-Usa's full name in front of people she didn't even know.
"Wow, she sounds a lot like Raye-chan does when she's yelling at me or when she's mad at me," Usagi pointed out as Raye's eyes got wide.
"Excuse me?" Raye questioned, shooting daggers at Usagi.
"Then I will take that as a compliment, your highness," Serene spoke to Usagi, watching as Usagi's eyes got wide in surprise.
"I would like to think that Serene does, indeed, take after Raye," Pluto spoke, watching as Amy, Michiru, all three of the Lights, Mayo and Mamoru guessed what she was hinting at.
"Why's that?" Usagi asked absently, looking from Pluto to Serene to Raye and back again. It wasn't until she noticed just how much Serene looked like... "OH MY GOD! RAYE-CHAN SPAWNED!"
"EXCUSE ME?" Raye hollered, taking a pillow off the couch Seiya and Mayo sat on and whapping Usagi in the back of the head with it, and glaring at Usagi when the blonde stuck her tongue out at her.
"Now that you mention it, Serene does look an awful lot like Raye," Makoto pointed out as she and Hotaru titled their heads to the side, analyzing the girl before them.
"I don't get it," Minako spoke, shaking her head.
"Baka!" Raye threw the comment in Minako's direction as Minako looked at her and frowned at the insult.
"Minako-chan, what Sailor Pluto is trying to say is that Serene is Raye's daughter," Mayo spoke finally, watching Minako's mouth open in an 'oh' movement.
"That makes sense."
"It's impossible though," Amy started, watching as every eye in the room turned toward her. "When we traveled to Crystal Tokyo, these children were nowhere to be seen, yet, Serene looks to be older than Chibi-Usa."
Pluto smiled sadly and nodded, but allowed Queen Serenity to inform the girls. "You're not supposed to know too much about your future, and at that point in time, Amy, you were learning only the essentials of what you needed, to defeat the Dark Moon."
"Ok, so, like, who's who?" Makoto asked Pluto, who smiled.
"Allow me to introduce to you Corona Mayo, or Chibi-Mayo and her twin sister, Cheyenne Callista," Pluto started, waiting as the little girls stepped forward. They were a bit younger than Serene, but not by much. "They are also known as Sailor Chibi Sol and Sailor Chibi Star Fighter." Both Mayo and Seiya gasped in shock as their minds registered that their replacements were standing in front of them. "Their parents are Sailor Sol and Sailor Star Fighter."
"Oh my god," Usagi gasped as she took in the sight of her nieces for the first time.
"This is Maia Keiko and Atlas Zachary." A blonde haired, blue eyed little girl and a blue haired, blue eyed little boy stepped forward at the mention of their names. "They are also Sailor Chibi Mercury and Chibi Mercury Knight." This time, it was Amy's gasp that was heard as she got her first look at her children.
"Who's their father?" Minako asked, watching Pluto's smile turn grim.
"I'm not allowed to divulge that information, Minako-chan." Minako nodded, accepting that there were some things Pluto would not, and more importantly could not, tell them.
"This is Aurora Andel and Adonis Kenneth," Queen Serenity spoke as the pair, obviously brother and sister, stepped forward. The group of elders noted that both shared the same intense blue eyes and blonde hair, though Andel's leaned toward more of a white then blonde. "They are also Sailor Chibi Venus and Chibi Venus Knight."
"Gee, Minako-chan, she doesn't look a thing like you," Haruka mumbled as Minako shot the elder girl a withering glare.
"Nice to meet ya!" Minako chirped to her...children... she swallowed those thoughts hard as emotions started to get the better of her.
"You've already met Serene Dion, and this is her twin brother, Ares Jonathan," Queen Serenity spoke as the tall, blonde haired, violet eyed young boy strode forward and stood next to his sister. "They are Sailor Chibi Mars and Chibi Mars Knight."
"I have twins?" Raye squeaked in question as Usagi clapped a hand as hard as she could on the Senshi of Fire's back when the raven haired girl started to choke.
"Looks like," Usagi giggled, and then sighed as Raye's eyes filled with tears. She could only imagine what it would be like to have a boy and a girl, but as far as she knew, she only had Chibi-Usa, which, she pointed out to herself, she would be content with.
"This is Carme Priscilla and Metis Nathaniel," Pluto spoke as the brown haired, green eyed boy and girl stepped forth. Among the adults, there was no question who their mother was. Makoto smiled broadly when Pluto stated the obvious. "They are Sailor Chibi Jupiter and Chibi Jupiter Knight."
"Hi," Makoto spoke before her emotions, like Raye, got the best of her. After all the years of being alone until she'd discovered her destiny... she smiled, she could now look forward to having two gorgeous, healthy, wonderful looking children.
"Allow me to present Pandora Willow and her twin brother, Prometheus Nickolas," Queen Serenity announced as a black haired, silver eyed girl and a black haired, violet eyed boy stepped forward. A tiny gasp of shock was heard from the senshi of silence as she stared at the two children. "They are Sailor Chibi Saturn and Chibi Saturn Knight."
"Oh Hota-chan," Michiru whispered as she turned her aqua eyes to the shocked form of her 'daughter'. "They're gorgeous."
"Next is Ariel Hikato and Oberon Greggory," Pluto pushed the tall blonde haired, blue eyed girl forward as she said her name, and smiled with the white haired blue eyed boy stepped forward on his own.
"Wait, wait," Minako hurriedly spoke, confusing all in the room. "Let me guess, Sailor Chibi Uranus and Chibi Uranus Knight?"
"What the..." Haruka started before Pluto's husky laughter quieted everyone.
"Nice come back, Minako-chan," Mamoru chuckled as Minako's grin widened.
"I have my moments," the blonde mimicked shinning her finger nails as Haruka stared at the two children who Pluto claimed were hers.
"Ha ha, very funny," Haruka started, before she turned blazing navy eyes on Pluto. "However, there's one tiny question I have..."
"Do not even ask it, Haruka," Pluto spoke. "What you want to know would not be best answered in front of your children."
"Ruka," Michiru whispered, wrapping her arm around Haruka's. Four sets of eyes watched in confusion.
"Pluto-sama," a little girl with brown hair and aqua colored eyes whispered as the Senshi of Time looked down on her.
"Hai?"
"Why does Mama hang on Aunt Haruka like that?"
"Excuse me?" Haruka growled when she heard what the little girl asked.
"Allow me to introduce Galatea Merisale and Triton Brain," Pluto replied as the little girl stepped forward before being joined by a little boy with aqua hair and brown eyes. "They are Sailor Chibi Neptune and Chibi Neptune Knight."
"Well, that answers your question, Haruka-papa," Hotaru muttered as she stared at Michiru's children.
"Oh my!" Michiru gasped as she let go of Haruka's arm as covered her mouth with her hands.
"Taiki, Yaten," Serenity spoke, catching the two boys' interest as four little girls stepped forward. "These are your daughters, Annika Elara, Sailor Chibi Spirit and her sister, Erin Bianca, Sailor Chibi Star Maker and Holly Miranda, Sailor Chibi Song, and her sister, Mika Almathea, Sailor Chibi Healer."
"Whoa!" Seiya muttered as he stared at his two best friends' daughters.
"And last but not least, my own children," Pluto spoke, surprising all of the elder senshi with not only her children but with the emotions that swamped her voice. "Charon Trena and Oort Logan."
"Um, I have a question," Raye started, all eyes focusing on her. "Who's that?" All eyes turned to stare at the jet black haired, ocean blue eyed little boy clutching to Queen Serenity's skirt.
"Oh my god," Mayo spoke as she leapt off the couch, scaring the boy slightly, and crouched in front of him. "Raye, can't you tell?"
"No," was the impatient and sarcastic reply. However, Raye's eyes and her heart immediately caught on to the connection that Mayo's had. By all accounts, the little boy was a miniature of Mamoru.
"This is my brother," Chibi-Usa spoke, surprising all of the senshi. "Neo Prince Endymion Alan Chiba."
"Mama," Usagi whispered as her tear filled eyes snapped to her mother's face, recalling how the spirit had greeted the little boy.
"Your brother?" Mamoru all but stuttered to Chibi-Usa, who nodded and grinned at her father.
"Dang!" Makoto nearly giggled. "Now that you really take a closer look, he's an exact replica of Mamoru-san."
"A son?" Usagi's whispered question quieted everyone, including Mamoru, who was getting more defensive by the minute because of Usagi's reaction. What no one, including Alan, was prepared for was Usagi hitting her knees and reaching out to run a hand along his cheek as tears welled in her eyes and poured down her cheeks. "A son, who looks exactly the same as my Mamo-chan." As the words left Usagi's mouth the entire group smiled. "Oh baby."
"Mama?" Alan asked softly, as Usagi nodded her head.
"Hai." Before Usagi realized what happened, a crying Alan leapt into her arms. Pudgy little arms wrapped tightly around Usagi's neck as Alan buried his face in her shoulder, his body shaking from his crying. "Oh baby, it's okay," Usagi crushed him against her, savoring the feeling of his body against hers, before she noticed the sad look on Chibi-Usa's face and reached out to pull her to her as well. With Chibi-Usa and Alan cradled in her arms, Usagi felt her world tilt. "My babies."
"Well Mamoru-san," Raye said as the older senshi looked at their prince. "I believe you just got the family you always wanted."
"I know."

"What do you mean Sailor Pluto brought a group of children through the Time Gate?"
"My prince, our spies report that a group of children, all under the age of ten, were spotted leaving a dimensional door with Sailor Pluto and entering another," the guard spoke, cowering before the raging prince. "We assume that she took them to see the Princess."
"I want you to find out where they are, NOW!"
"Yes Sire!"
"More children then just the rabbit?" Diamond pondered to himself.
~
"They all finally went to sleep," Hotaru whispered as she, Makoto, and Michiru dropped into their chairs at the large table where all the others were already sitting and eating.
"I never realized how much of a handful that many kids could be," Makoto pointed out as she rested her chin on the palm of her hand which was held up by her elbow resting on the table.
"I'm starving," Minako moaned as the others nodded.
"Eat up then," Serenity spoke, watching as the group gasped when platters of food appeared before them. "You'll need you strength for the coming battle." With that, the Queen turned to leave with Sailor Pluto.
"Mama?" Usagi asked as she caught up to the pair.
"We have much to discuss after dinner, my bunny. Eat, enjoy your time with your friends. Tomorrow, you battle." With that, Serenity and Pluto left Usagi staring after them, and the others staring at Usagi.
