A fanfiction story based on the Japanese anime series Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon. All
characters and Sailor Moon are copyright Toei, Naoko Takeuchi, and/or their respective

This is my first fanfic..opinions and thoughts are welcome! Please enjoy the fanfic! :)

SPECIAL DISCLAIMER: If you are not already aware, this is your definate warning that this
story is based on the anime, not the manga, so the story of Tin Nyanko is going to be 
very different. Similiar to the anime, there will be some elements that are the same or
similiar to the manga, but expect a different story, especially where the anime conflicts
with the manga. My attempt will be to fit the story in with what may have happened were
the story shown in the anime.

DISCLAIMER: Since this is based off of a Japanese anime, there are some aspects of the
Japanese culture that are seen within this story. Surnames before given names (Suzuko
Nyanko would be written as Nyanko Suzuko, for instance and things like that. I have also 
tried to write the dialogue as it may have been said, to at least some extent, in 
Japanese, so please bear this in mind as well.

 
 Chapter One

 Premonitions of the Future

 Deep in the cosmos, far away from the Milky Way, there existed the planet Mau. It
was a beautiful planet, slowly circling a bright sun with its siblings. The planet
had long passed from days of war into a comfortable peace..moreso because Mau's people
were peaceful, more than there being a large amount of people that threatened the peace.
Unlike many other planets, though Mau's people were young in their development, they 
were not caught in many meaningless conflicts with one another. Their people had learned 
to be satisfied with peace, and had learned to not argue or try to change things that
should not be changed. Even so, on a planet such as this, there were still Sailor
Soldiers that kept the peace. Much like their counterparts on Earth, these girls
defended the Solar System against evil while living among the people, known by
their ordinary names in normal life. On that planet, two such people are about to
meet..
 Nyanko Suzuko knocked on the door to the bedroom. "Kyo-chan..are you in there?"
she listened, and for a few moments, there was silence. Then soft footsteps made their
way to the door, and it opened. Ishi Kyoko looked at Suzuko with a confused look on
her soft featured face. She stood at 5'2", with light brown hair that went down to her
midback. She was wearing a pair of jeans and blue colored sweater with the name of
a musical group on it. Suzuko, herself, wore a pair of tan slacks and a black t-shirt
with the words, written in white, "Don't accept less, or you won't find more." along the
front. She was just slightly shorter than Kyoko. A small golden hoop earring was in her 
left ear. Her hair was done in cat ears on top, braids coming down from the top of each, 
leaving a bit of hair free at the ends, just a little past shoulder length. Around her 
neck was a black choker with a bell attached.
 "Suzuko-chan..what are you doing here?"
 Suzuko's eyebrows raised. "Eeeee? I can't believe it..not only did you forget
your bag the other day, but you forgot about today, too??"
 Kyoko's head bowed a bit as she closed her eyes. "I'm sorry..recently, I haven't
been feeling well. I seem to have forgotten all about today, too..um..what were we
going to do?"
 This is bad..Suzuko frowned, her golden yellow eyes, usually so clear and 
bright, now deeply concerned for her friend. "Hey..don't look so depressed! Come with 
me, Kyoko-chan!"
 With that, she grabbed ahold of Kyoko's slim wrist, moving towards the stairs
that she had walked up, half dragging her along through the hallway as she went.
 "Wa-wait! I need to get my purse..wait, Suzuko!"
 "No, I woonnn't!!" Suzuko said cheerfully as she continued to pull her along,
ignoring the arguments of her friend.
 Left alone in the kitchen, having watched as the two friends had passed, Kyoko's
mother blinked at the kidnapping of her daughter, then smiled. Suzuko's voice called
back from the doorway. "Don't worry! I'll protect Kyo-chan! We're going!!" with that,
Kyoko still protesting, Suzuko pushed her out the door, closing it behind them.

 "Jeez, Suzuko!!"
 Suzuko laughed, the bell on her choker around her neck jingling merrily with her
voice as the two friends walked along. "I understand! I understand! But you can't
deny that you needed to get out of your house and into the sun for a change. A dark
room makes for dark thoughts, they say."
 At that, Kyoko's expression fell. "That's right, isn't it?" she asked, as if
her mind was far elsewhere.
 Damn..good going, Suzuko! She scolded herself. Once again, she spoke without
thinking, and its costing her dearly. "Really, I'm sorry! Don't worry about such
things, now..ok?" she looked over at Kyoko hopefully.
 To her relief, Kyoko looked up back at her, and a smile tugged at her pretty
lips. "Ok."
 "Thats more like it!" Suzuko beamed, taking ahold of her friend's arm, guiding
her to their destination. If things kept going like this, her plan might just work..
 "By the way..you never told me where we're going.." Kyoko said after a moment's
thought. Suzuko smiled at her.
 "Thats a secret."
 
 "This is deliiicious.." Suzuko said in an almost dreamy voice, her eyes half 
closed as she savored the cream parfait. She had eventually led Kyoko to the cafe
that they had scouted out before, but had never yet gone to. It had a wonderful
atmosphere, like the dining room of a family owned inn, but also with a hint of
sophistication. The room itself was lightly colored with light tan colored walls.
The furnature was made out of woods native to their planet, bleached white and tied 
together with strings of light brown leather. A U-shaped counter came out from the wall, 
directly ahead from when one entered the door from the south. It was a brown color, 
contrasting with the light color of the tables, yet matched by the strings of leather on 
the furnature. The floor was also a brown color, making the scene contrast out. The 
mid-afternoon sun poured through the large windows set along the east and southern walls, 
also bringing in a view of the city outside. Plants were arranged in strategic places
through the room, and if one looked inward, it seemed that they were in a rustic hut
from times gone, looking exotic and yet comforting and nostalgic. "The scenary is also
not bad.." Suzuko said, after glancing over the room.
 "Un.." Kyoko replied, her eyes closed as she likewise savored the taste of her own
parfait..the only difference between the girls' snack being that Kyoko's parfait had
a light brown sauce over it that had a slightly nutty flavor, whereas Suzuko preferred
hers with heavenly cream untainted. That..and Kyoko's parfait was already starting to
sink past half gone, while Suzuko was savoring every bite with indulgence.
 "You're eating that awfully fast.." Suzuko observed, watching the older girl making
quite the pig of herself. "If you don't slow down, you won't have enough time to enjoy
it fully."
 At this, Kyoko laughed a little bit, her cheeks coloring slightly. "I'm sorry..I
haven't felt like eating for awhile, so I'm trying not to go too fast." Suzuko could
see that a sparkle had returned to her friend's eyes, and her expression didn't seem
so depressed, anymore. She smiled at her friend.
 "That's ok. Eat as much as you like. I won't tell anyone." She added with a wink.
 Kyoko laughed again, covering her mouth with her hand. The sound was like tinkling
bells in Suzuko's ears, and it seemed that her voice was becoming more like normal again.
 "Thank you, Suzuko." Kyoko said, smiling at her friend. "You're a wonderful person."
 "Noo!" Suzuko said with a shy little laugh, her hand slipping behind her head. She
looked down at the floor as she spoke. "Its just that you've seemed very depressed, 
lately..I was wondering how you were doing..and..if you were ok.." she said shyly, 
glancing back up at her friend.
 Realization came over Kyoko's face and she leaned forward across the table, resting
her elbow's on the tabletop as she spoke in a quieter voice. "We never did make a plan
to do anything today, did we?"
 Suzuko looked back down. "Not really..um..sorry for lying to you, Kyo-chan, but
I was trying to help you, and I wanted.."
 Kyoko reached over the table to gently take ahold of her friend's hand. Suzuko
looked up, her eyes looking over into Kyoko's, realizing that her friend's face seemed
almost angelic from the smile on her face. "Thank you.." 
 Suzuko smiled softly, nodding, shyly squeezing the hand that held hers, feeling 
Kyoko return the squeeze. Kyoko let go and sat back, letting out a sigh, as if a huge 
weight had fallen from her shoulders.
 "Now, lets have fun!" Their both raised their hands in agreement with a loud "Ou!!"
then laughed as they finished up their parfaits, and went in search of fun.
 
 The city rang with their laughter, that night. After the parfaits, they had went
dancing, and after that, they had stopped in at a building that was having public
karaoke, and sang and laughed until the sun had long disappeared from the sky, leaving
the planet veiled in the light of the stars. In the evening light, the two walked
together, side by side along the street. The air was cool, but not chilly. Soft breezes
rustled the leaves of the trees along the sides of the street as they walked.
 "I haven't laughed like that in a very long time.." Kyoko said, looking over at
Suzuko as they walked. The girl looked away a bit shyly, before looking over at her
in concern, the jingling of the bell on the choker around her neck breaking the still
air around them.
 "Anyways..what made you so depressed? I've never seen you like that before."
 Kyoko's walking slowed to a stop as her gaze seemed to fix elsewhere, to the problem 
that she had forgotten for awhile. "Kyo-chan.."
 "Suzuko."
 Suzuko started a bit. Never had she heard such a serious, solemn tone in her
friend's voice. It sounded sad..yet..firm..like someone who knows of something terrible
that is about to happen, but is powerless to stop it, but is bearing up against it
anyways. Kyoko's blue eyes fixed on hers, sharp and focused and yet sad. She looked at
her like this for some time, while Suzuko shifted uncomfortably underneath her gaze.
Finally, she spoke. "Lets go someplace private."
 Suzuko nodded, her thoughts in a whirl as they resumed walking together. What
does this mean? What is going on? Kyoko-chan is acting a little scary.. They walked 
together along the street, turning off of the main road, and eventually coming to a 
playground. It was quiet, now, all the children home and in bed at this hour. Kyoko 
moved over to one of the benches and sat down. Suzuko slipped down beside her, looking 
over at her friend. Kyoko was silent for a few moments, her gaze upwards on the stars in 
the sky above.
 "I felt it.." Kyoko said at last, turning her gaze back to Suzuko.
 "Felt what?" she asked.
 "I..don't understand very well, but..three nights ago, I felt an omninous 
presence.."
 Suzuko's head tilted to the side. "A new enemy?"
 Kyoko looked down at her lap. "It feels somewhat different..it is an evil presence..
there is no doubt..but..it seems like its coming from far away. Perhaps..its an enemy from
outside of our Solar System.."
 "Then..it may just pass us by!" Suzuko interjected, hoping to lift her friend's
spirits. She didn't understand what the problem was..they had faced enemies together before..
a threat from outside the Solar System was new to her, but..surely, Kyoko had..
 "I don't think so.." Kyoko interrupted her thoughts, her eyes serious and sad again as
she gazed at Suzuko. "Suzuko..you're..a Sailor Soldier, right?"
 "Ee? Of course I am..you know that.." Suzuko answered. "Hey..stop talking like that.
You're being scary.."
 Kyoko's eyes seemed to bore deep into her soul, searching, before she spoke the next
words. "You know what it means to be a Sailor Soldier, don't you? If we need to..we have
to be willing to sacrifice our lives to protect peace in the galaxy..to do whatever it
takes to protect the people of this planet."
 Suzuko was silent..she looked down at the ground, feeling her insides starting to
shiver. Whether it was from the cool air or what was inside her heart, she didn't know.
Kyoko stood up, leaving her to her thoughts for awhile, her gaze directed outwards over
the playground, but not seeing it. After a few moments, she seemed to come to decision,
and walked back over to Suzuko, leaning over and gently reaching forward to hold her hands 
in her own, looking into her eyes deeply and seriously. "No matter what, lets let our 
powers become one..lets fight together, and do our best even to the end!"
 Suzuko smiled nervously. "What are you talking about? We'll definately beat the bad
guy. We won't let them interfere with the peace of the galaxy. You're thinking too much,
Kyo-chan." She smiled, looking up into her friend's eyes. Definately, there aren't
any who can defeat us. Kyoko-chan should know that..she is really worrying too much.
 Kyoko gazed into her eyes seriously for a few moments more and then forced a smile, 
squeezing her friends' hands again. "Yes..then, lets go home.."
 Suzuko nodded, standing up, and together they left the playground, walking together
along the street. Suzuko's thoughts were still a bit uncertain as she walked Kyoko to her
home, and said goodnight, then headed towards her own home. What was she being so
serious about? Suzuko shook her head, walking up the steps to the door to her home.
Once inside, she soon said goodnight, going upstairs to take a bath and brush her teeth
and wash her face, then got dressed for bed. While she lay in her bed, she thought a 
little about her friends' words, pondering over them in her mind a bit more. Really,
she must be too stressed..were her thoughts as she drifted off to sleep..
