Serenity stood before the boys in her true form. Angelic wings extended from her back a good six feet. Her royal dress hung close her body barley moving even as she breathed, the heart shaped crown sat upon her brow. To her right was Chibi Usa in her royal beauty. Dorothy stood on her left clutching her hand. Her dress was like her mothers but with a pale yellow chiffon cape hung from the tip of her shoulders. The boys looked at them confused. Things had happed to quickly, to quickly for them to process or under stand.

Serenity hung her head not wanting to look at their eyes. Eyes that held much pain and emotion.

"I did not want this to be the way you found out. Please forgive me. Forgive us. We-no I wanted you to know us for your mothers before you knew…" Chibi Usa grabbed her mothers hand tears stinging her eyes.

"Please understand…. we don't understand what is happening but please bare with us. Listen to our story with open minds before you shut us out."

"What exactly happened? It is all unclear and filled with so much light." Quatre rubbed at his temples.

Chibi Usa nodded to Dorothy who lead the elder Serenity off.  Chibi Usa moved to the side of the group and waved a hand in the air. A mirror of sort appeared hovering in thin air.

"We now stand in the Gates of Time. Here one has access to the past, present and future if they have the proper knowledge to use it. In this mirror we can see the past few minuets more clearly. "

All eyes watched anxious to know – something. It started with what they knew.

The children played a game of doge ball in the back yard. The elders looked on from the porch laughing. Serenity caught a stray ball and joined the game. There was an explosion. The elders rushed the to the yard pushing everyone behind them

In the air hovered a gloating Diamondo. Serenity gave a horrified cry at his appearance. Chibi Usa was soon in her arm quivering as the slowly backed towards the house.

"I found you Serenity. I knew I would. Your little guards tried to keep me from you. Little good that did. Look at what you have left. The others fell so easily as these will. Maybe I will even recapture you little boys there and turn them for my side. Then-then you will be at my side where you belong."

Makoto growled. "Like hell she will. You died once and can again." She pulled out her pin, as did the others. Calling out their transformation phrases caused ribbons and light to surround them. In the end the last of the Sailor Senshi stood. The quartet followed afterwards. Pushing who was left into the protection of the house. Then the battle was on.

Blows were dealt back and forth with he gaining the ground. The older senshi stood together to give it one last go. Uranus barked for the Quartet to get the others to safety as she and the other powered up. Doing as they were told. They herded everyone into the house activated the Time Door and pushed them in and locked it close.

 The images went blank. If it hadn't been for everyone being stunned they would have not been pushed into the void they were in now. Locked with only to ways to go the Future or the past.

Dimando's face could be seen in the mirror as Heero studied it.

"Why were you so afraid of him?"

Chibi Usa looked startled and then blushed. "It is a long story." Looking back to where Dorothy had disappeared with her mother she sighed. "But it is your right to know. I will show you every thing. Everything from my mother's beginning. I am breaking a big Taboo but there is no choice. You must understand things."

Waving a hand the picture changed to show a glorious kingdom that was on the- MOON??

Dorothy had joined back with them at some point a watched along. They watched up to the point of their births. What they had witnessed more than shocked them. It appalled them how could these women have such power.

"You have that power as well." Turning they found Serenity in a hooded cloak. Looking at the stilled picture of Dou's supposed death she frowned. They couldn't see the hate in her eyes they hood covered over them.

"Things are starting to make sense. All those whispered secrets behind my back, the sneaking off and not returning. He was the one who captured you, was he not."

The boys could only nod.

"Uranus, Mercury and Jupiter came to our rescue. It was the same colors." Heero stated. Her hands clenched to her side so tight her nails bit into her hands cutting them. "WHY DIDN'T THEY TELL ME!" she screamed out.

"Because my little one, they thought they could protect you and allow you the pain to know he was alive."

Two figures emerged from the fog the covered everything. A man and a woman, light to the dark. Chibi Usa rushed to them giving them hugs.

"Luna! Artemis!"

"Did you know of this cat?"

Luna frowned but her eyes glittered. " No we did not. Pluto blocked us from seeing that before her disappearance."

Artemis smiled to the boys, "You are taking this better than I would have thought. The girls would have been freaking out by now." He received three hits to the head from different people.

Dou shrugged. " I have seen much not to be surprised. When one can walk through a city of dead and dieing a feel as if he belongs or just buy uttering the word die to kill someone you learn to except the odd." He looked directly to Serenity. "Now it makes sense. My mother was death and I have inherit that part of her."

"NO!" Chibi U. cried out. "Hotaru was not just death but life as well. Just death and destruction gave her more strength as life and creation declined her health but she was both. That was her ultimate attack. To destroy everything but at the same time restart life over again. That attack would also cause her death, but only to be reborn till it was her time again. With time and practice you can harness both sides. She was never able to completely. That is why she became a doctor. So she could try and recreate life."

Dorothy nodded. "Each of you contain part of your mothers power and you know you have used it at some point." She smirked. "It is ironic that you also piloted Gundams that related to you."

Serenity snorted. "No, that was on purpose. Thos damn doctors some how knew who you were for they knew us. Any other that would have piloted those things would have been killed. They tapped into your planet power. That very power you must learn to use if we are to fight. "

They looked at each other startled. Trowa shifted his head to look at his aunt.

"You are different?"

She smiled. "Very observant." She said no more. Chibi U. stood closer to her mother almost looking her in the eyes. Wait- since when did she look her mother directly in the eyes. Her mother was taller and she would have to look up.

"You shrank!"

Luna laughed. "Not really Small Lady. Her age had been decreased to her teens." Pulling on the back of the cloak caused the hood to fall. They looked at a seventeen-year-old Tsukino Usagi, but only with white hair and heart shape buns. She let out a heavy sigh.

"Luna thought since we can not return to our present and defiantly not the future why not the past. There we can train and teach each of you, your planet power. That is- if you want to fight. You do not have to but your power would greatly aid."

Looking at one another they all gave her a confirmed yes.

Luna smiled. "Thank you. The only time best to send you is after Chaos. There you can train with out problem, the occasional monster of the day popped up now and then."

Wufei glared at her. "Why do I hear a but?"

"But you have to become younger." She winced at the yelling she received. Once the calmed down Serenity stopped laughing long enough to explain.

"A younger body can control the small power you have as that power grows so will you till a certain point. The senshi of the time would become suspicious of five young teens that hold the same powers. As for Small Lady it would create less arguments if she was younger than my past self same for Dorothy. Them being in the same classes as their mothers is the last thing we need." Knowing smirks made a brief show on their faces.

It took much time before all agreed and stood before the proper door. Serenity smiled down at her cares, five six-year-old boys and two fourteen year old girls. Life really hated her. The door opened and they walked through. God save the world when they arrived.
