~*~*~*~*~*~
Tired deep dark blue eyes stared desperately at the beautiful crystal quartz coffin before him, taking a long deep breath, and releasing it shakeningly; the man laid his warm forehead against the cold sparkling crystal surface as if he could somehow fall through the hardened rock and touch the delicate statuesque figure lying peacefully inside.
"Serenity...onegai...answer me! I can't sense you anymore! Please you must show me you're still well!" The raven haired man cried out in distress as he brought his ivory gloved hand up and struck the crystal, hard. "Damn-it! Why won't you answer me!?" He questioned the slumbering woman as his hand continued its assault on the frosty crystal exterior.
"Endymion-sama I suggest you stop before you injure yourself." A soft commanding voice suggested as the man, Endymion, swiftly turned around to gaze at the tall mystique green haired female before him.
"Setsuna-san!" The man yelped in surprise as he quickly tried to straighten the wrinkles out in his lavender-clad tuxedo to make him self more presentable and not look like the wreck that he knew he most likely resembled.
The senshi of Pluto, had she not had more pressing matters to attend to, would have laughed kindly at her king as he wrestled with his uniform. "Sire we need to have a chat." It was stated as a command more then a suggestion.
Noticing the edge in the green haired womans voice he stopped the attack on his clothes and quickly stood tall as Pluto walked gracefully forward letting him know that this was not a simple chat about the weather or the daily happenings of each of their lives. "Pluto-san, nan desu ka?"
Sighing, the senshi of time and space knew she could no longer hold off on the conversation she was about to have with her king. Taking a deep breath she prepared for the lashing that would come, "The time stream." She stated simply but her facial expression showed that the matter was anything but simple. Taking a little breath she continued, "The time stream is becoming unstable; even now this place is becoming nothing but a blur in the fabric of time."
"Do you know what is causing this disruption?" He questioned while raising an eyebrow in thought trying to come up with a conclusion that would answer his question.
"Partially," Narrowing her eyes she stared intently at the raven haired man standing deep in thought before her, "and I know how to rectify this 'mistake'"
Letting out a deep sigh of relief Endymion had the grace to smile, "Well that's good, and if you don't mind me asking, how are you going to solve the problem?"
Smirking, Setsuna shifted her weight so she was leaning on her garnet staff, "That's where you come in Endymion-sama."
"Me?" He choked out astonished, "Demo...what can I do?"
"You," She asserted pointing a slim tanned finger at Endymion, "Have one simple task, tell your past self that the dreams mean nothing, that Serenity-hime will not be harmed if he is with her!"
Glaring at the woman he growled, "Iie!"
"You don't have a say in this Endymion! You either do this or I will tell him myself!" She declared in a stern, commanding voice that didn't leave room for rebellion.
Glaring heatedly at the woman that stood towering over him he stated, "You will do no such thing Setsuna-san! I will not stop these dreams; Mamoru must over come them himself!"
"You don't understand Endymion-sama the time frame for this future is starting to fade! If you don't allow Mamoru and Usagi to get back together soon this," Moving her arms out to her side she pointed to dead, broken, and ruin land around the two of them, "All of this will no longer be! Your daughter will cease to exist!"
"I know...but I ca..won't stop them"
Looking down at the ground when she heard his reply she sighed, she had to get him to realize that he was making a mistake and that if he didn't fix things this future, her Small Lady's present, would no longer exist; and the simplest way to do that was to stop the dreams...but the way Endymion kept persisting that the dreams were to help bring his past self and girlfriend closer together, but were actually keeping them apart, sounding as if he was...Gasping in realization she allowed her wide eyes to stare at Endymion in surprise, "You're jealous of him!"
"Nani!?" The raven haired King question in surprise as he took a step back.
"You are, I can see it in your eyes! You're jealous of Mamoru, that's why you won't stop the dreams!" Griping her Garnet rod tighter she continued to stare at the Earth king, her anger getting the best of her, "You're jealous of him because he still has Usagi-hime, where as here she is cut of from you!"
"Be quiet."
"Your resentful to the fact that he can protect her, while here yo-"
"I said, bite your tongue!"
Stiffening her muscles she stood stalk still as she whispered, "It's true though, is it not?"
Running an ivory gloved hand through his damp hair he sighed, "No, contrary to what you think, I'm not jealous of him." Leaning his head back as tears started to form in his eyes, "I'm ashamed."
"Ashamed?"
Taking a deep breath to try and stop the tears from coming he rubbed his eyes, "Ashamed...mostly because I couldn't protect the one I loved from getting hurt, and because I wasn't strong enough to save her she's stuck in that crystal coffin, cut off from the world she protected and loved dearly." Slowly he moved his line of vision from the ceiling as he turned to a now sullen green haired senshi. "That's why I'm sending him those dreams, I figured that if our bond was stronger maybe, just maybe, I could've gotten to her sooner and protected her better. Wakarimasu Ka."
Softening her gaze, Pluto leaned on her Garnet Rod allowing her eyes to flutter close, "Hai, wakarimasu, demo you must listen Endymion-sama, someone or something is messing with the Time Stream and I know it's not for the better! That's not all there is someone helping Demando, though I'm not sure who, as the Time Gate won't show me, but they don't seem to be helping the problem!" Taking a deep breath she opened her eyes, "And it would better for all of us if the two-"
"One week?"
"Nani?"
"Give it one more week...and if by then Mamoru hasn't gotten back together with Usa then...then I'll tell him."
"Very well one week, after that you must, and I stress this, must tell him." Turning around she tapped the end of her rod on the ground causing a bright cherry colored light to appear, "Bai Bai King Endymion-sama." With that she stepped into the light and disappeared.
Turning back towards the crystal quartz Endymion leaned his forehead against the cool surface, "Serenity please wake-up I need you now more then I ever have." He whispered as warm salty tears began to fall silently down his flushed cheeks as he slowly slid to the ground pounding his hands gently on the crystal.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Usagi sighed in content as she stopped in front of the Recreation District Park's lake, it was gorgeous day, the sun shone brightly through the bright red and soft orange colored tree leaves, the beautiful array of flowers swayed tenderly in the light chilly fall wind while the leaves slowly rustled as they moved back in forth in sync with the gentle breeze.
Taking a deep breath she reveled in the crisp clean and flowery smell the air carried throughout the quiet serene park.
Slowly rising her arms out to her side, Usagi closed her eye and just dwelled in the calm feeling that overwhelmed her, right now, she felt like nothing could ruin her day....
"Planning on flying away Odango?" A deep masculine voiced questioned with what sounded like curiosity.
"Yeah, Usagi-baka! You look like an airplane!' A soft childlike voice teased as the owner of the voice laughed lightly at her joke.
....except...maybe that of course.
Bringing her arms down and clasping them behind her back she opened her eyes and swiftly turned to stare at the two in front of her, "Ne, Mamo-chan, Chibi-Usa-chan, what brings you two to the park?"
Chibi-Usa smiled happily as she latched herself tightly onto Mamoru's right arm, "Mamoru-kun promised me that, since I've been doing such a good job at hiding, we could go and get ice cream! So 'we're' going to the Crown!" She stated cheerfully as she hugged the raven haired mans arm happily.
Smiling sadly down at the child, Usagi nodded, "Well that's nice of him, just don't eat too much, O-kaachan is cooking Chicken Curry for dinner tonight."
Raising an eyebrow in wonder Mamoru looked at his ex, usually, by now, she was ranting and raving about how she was late for something, how Chibi-Usa was nothing but a boyfriend stealing little gaki, or how he still loved her and that he was a baka for being so stupid as to not see that. Oh but he did see, he loved her more then anything in this world and that's why he had to stay away from her! He couldn't let the only thing he loved in this life die because of his selfish needs. He'd rather die a lonely old man knowing his love was alive and well then knowing she had died long before her time because of him needing her, oh kami-sama did he need her. Sighing he ran sweaty hand through his raven locks before turning to stare at his beautiful blonde odango, "I'll make sure she doesn't eat alot."
Pouting, Chibi-Usa stuck her tongue out at Usagi expecting the older girl to retaliate with a raspberry of her own when none came the little girl raised an eyebrow, "Why are you being so weird today Usagi?"
Before the blonde got a chance to answer a scream echoed out over the park turning to Mamoru she pointed towards Chibi-Usa, "It's probably a youma, take her and get out of here!"
Nodding his head the raven haired man swept down and picked up the little pink haired girl and ran from the scene while Usagi grasped her broach tightly in her hand and raised it high into the air, "Moon Crystal Power, Make Up!" A bright white sparkling light surrounding the girl's body as her clothes gradually melted away while soft cherry colored ribbons sprouted from the middle of her locket and tenderly wrapped around her body forming a new set of clothes on her body, as the ribbons disappeared and the white light died down, Sailor Moon stood in place of the junior high student Usagi.
Concentrating for one second to find the location of the youma she took off hastingly towards the attack while calling the senshi along the way.
~*~*~*~*~*~
A small black haired girl screamed as she backed away from the black, orange, and green colored monster that was wielding a very large sword and coming towards her. "ONEGAI LEAVE ME ALONE!" The girl screeched as she covered her eyes with her cold clammy hands that were shaking from fear.
"Don't fret little girly my pet her wont hurt you...much!" Esmeraude declared as she brought her red fan up to cover her mouth while she laughed that psychotic little laugh of hers.
"Stop right there Esmeraude!"
Choking back her laugh the lime green haired woman narrowed her eyes into small slits as she snapped her bright red fan shut and snorted, "About time you showed up twit!"
With a flick of her wrist she expanded her fan and brought her arm back, "I've been waiting for you!" Moving her soft red lips into a smirk she let out a small cry of anger as she quickly brought her hand forward, sending off a powerful wave of dark energy. Swiftly turning her head towards her youma she pointed to sailor suited teen, who was doing her best to dodge the attack. "Gargun forget the kid, go after Sailor Moon!"
Nodding its multi-colored fuzzy head, the horrendous monster let out shrill shriek as it backed away from the black haired child and speed briskly towards the un-suspecting Odango senshi.
The little girl gasped as she took a deep breath and cupped her still shaking hand around her mouth, "Sailor Moon-san look OUT!"
Quickly turning around the sailor suited girl let out a short scream before her eyes widened as pain shot through her now trembling body, choking back her tears, she slowly brought her small gloved hands up to her stomach were a sterling silver sword had been plunged into her side. Slowly moving her vision upwards she stared at the youma in shock before swiftly jerking back, wincing as she felt the cold metal remove itself from her body, she grasped her stomach in agony as she gradually fell to her knees. Grasping her side tightly she tried to staunch the warm sticky red fluid that now ran through her interlocked fingers and down her once bleach white uniform. Looking up one last time towards the youma she slowly descended towards the ground the pain of her wound to much to bear.
The last thing Sailor Moon remembered before falling unconscious was the smiling face of a small black haired girl, a glaring lime greened haired woman, and the toothy smirk of a very happy youma. 'Everyone, help me...'
