Arianna sat in front of the guardian of the Time Gates, Sailor Pluto. The guardian was explaining as best as she could what had happened to the young girl, who sat there taking all this quite well. After explaining, a golden retriever with a silver collar on walked in and bowed to the two females.

"Good afternoon Sailor Pluto, young miss." the dog said.

"Afternoon, Sora." Pluto said.

Arianna stared at this golden retriever in amazement, it talked. To add to her amazement on it's forehead there was an insignia of a moon and a star. She looked over this beautiful creature, before looking into her dark amber eyes with fascination. Her eyes had a far away look in them, like she wasn't all there.

Sora looked at the young girl; thoughts of betrayal, understanding, hate, love, and respect swirled inside her head toward this child. Memories wanted to flood through to explain everything but they were either clouded or just not there. Even with all these things going on inside her she kept a calm look about her.

Pluto slightly frowned and looked between her two charges with worry.

Arianna took a deep breath, "Good afternoon Sora, my name is Arianna." she finally said after the long silence.

The dog bowed her head again before sitting down in front of the humans.

"Before I return to my duties, little one, I must say something for you to think about while I'm gone." Pluto said taking the young girl's hand. "You are Sailor Sun, a Sailor Soldier from this system. Your reincarnated body hasn't obtain the powers from your other life. It is the same power the evil men mentioned, but you will regain the power they spoke of. I know this is very hard to accept right now, but I will be here to tuck you in at night and explain anything you may want to know at that time." she said softly and left the room.

Arianna sat there tears brimming her eyes, 'Sailor Scout?'

Sora looked up at the young girl with worry, "Do you have any questions, little one?" she asked.

"Why?" she squeaked.

"In what way little one?" the dog asked.

"Why me? Why this?" she cried out softly.

"You are chosen for this path, and you must take it." Sora said softly. "Why were you shown in this way? I do not know; The Fates must have something in store for you." she added.

Arianna sat quietly for a long moment recollecting her thoughts. "Who is Sailor Sun?" she asked thinking this would be a reasonable question.

"Sailor Sun, as legend has it she was a direct desendant from the sun god Apollo and is an unknown Senshi from this system."

"Why unknown?"

"I am not sure. I do not know that side of the story." Sora said. "Anything else little one?"

"No." she said quietly and walked up to the bed and crawled under the covers to hide herself.


Pluto walked into the room later on in the night to see if Arianna was awake or not, seeing the lump of blankets slightly raising and falling she assumed the girl was asleep and left to talk to her another time. She met up with Sora in the living room. They sat for a moment without talking, taking in the night.

"She has taken the idea easily." Sora broke the silence.

"Yes quite a surprise," Pluto agreed. "but not so, she is too young to understand."

"True, so what are we going to do now?" Sora inquired.

"Train her." Pluto stated.

"How? You are busy, and I am incapable to train her." Sora said.

"You are not incapable my friend." Pluto said softly. "As her gaurdian you just need to follow her to make sure she doesn't get into any trouble. I really do not want to pass her onto another, we still do not know if she is in peril."

"Peril?" came a small voice. "Is that why I am here?" Ari asked, her bedraggled form sat beside Sora looking up at Pluto with big blue eyes.

"I am afraid so little one." Pluto said carefully.

"Then why am I here?" she asked. "Aren't I endangering you too?"

"Yes in away, but we are protected here."

"But if you are endangered, why did you save me. An unknown warrior doesn't seem that important." she said her eyes brimming with tears.

"It ... it's not that." Sora said, trying to remember the real reason.

"In your former might you were quite powerful, and you are here to reach it once again." Pluto explained.

"Are you two going to train me?" she asked a confused looked came over her face.

Pluto nodded.

"When?" Arianna asked with new enthusment.

Sora looked at Pluto, "Tomorrow." Pluto smiled.

"Alright, I'll go get ready." Arianna jumped up and ran to her room.

"Get ready? It's in the middle of the night!" Sora said in confusion.


Arianna stood in front of Sora and Pluto in full arms; sailor outfit and weapon on her. She turned around to study her new look in the mirror; thin small golden tiara with a red stone in the middle was on her forehead, the cholker around her small neck was yellow as well as her skirt and boots, while her bows were orange.

"Wow." she breathed. "This is so cool!"

She hugged both Pluto and Sora.

"What's next?" she asked.

Pluto took all of them outside her house.

"Find your powers and summon an attack, then try and aim at the tree over there." she explained pointing to a large willow like tree.

"What will happen to the tree?" Sailor Sun asked shyly.

"With your powers, it will probably be burnt."

"And you don't mind?"

Pluto smiled slightly and shook her head no.

Sailor Sun stood there for a short time thinking really hard when suddenly she took her bow from off her shoulder and a gold arrow appeared. Fitting it in the string she aimed for a branch and cleared it off the tree. She smiled and absentmindly yelled out "Phoenix Strike!", another attack of hers, the tree got hit by another arrow and a glowing red scar appeared on the bark.

"Wow, she is well on her way." commented Sora looking at the damage.

Pluto nodded, "Would you like to continue to practice finding the skills you have right now or would you like some tea?"

"I'll just stay out here for a bit longer." the warrior child replied and closed her eyes searching for anymore power she could harness.
