The Plan

Hotaru opened her eyes. She was using her first uniform as Sailor Saturn, the one with the eight pointed star. Her eyes looked at the mirror that showed her older reflection. She was now eighteen years old. The Messiah called her glaive and said a chant in her forgotten language. In the next second she wasn't there anymore.

"I was waiting for you." The young voice of a child said, Saturn turned around and looked at her enemy.

The bodies of the sailors were displayed in front of her. Mercury was lying in front of the black crystal where Moon was in with a heavy wound on her head. A little to the side was Mamoru who probably broke his neck. Some foots in front of Mercury and the black crystal were the bodies of Uranus and Neptune holding each other, probably trying to protect Mercury by receiving the first blow. A little further were Venus, Mars and Jupiter. The warrior of thunder was probably the last one to die because her body was right in front of the dark little girl.

"Killing them was a lost of time." Saturn said before she started to resurrect them.

"No, you won't." The girl replied and encased the bodies in black crystals preventing Saturn's power. "My lord told me about you. It seems you two were old friends."

"Who is your lord? " Saturn asked trying to know something about the enemy she was against.

The little girl only laughed and sent a powerful dark blast in Saturn's direction. The sailor raised a barrier trying to get some time to think. "I can't stay defending from her all the time and I can't revive my friends, what I shall do…"

"Who is your lord, little girl?" The sailor increased her aura to maybe scare the enemy. The girl's eyes got wide for one second before a sinister smile formed on her lips.

"You really don't have a clue, do you? He won't be happy to hear that, he was very fond of you…"

"Answer me, damn it!" The Messiah ordered while summoning a great amount of souls around them. She new that attacking the girl would be useless since she could absorb her energy attacks. The girl only attacked to bait her to counter it.

"If you must know… My lord's name is Charon."

Saturn's eyes got wide and instantly the souls around the duo disappeared. She couldn't believe it was him, he was supposed to be dead. He died in the Silver Millennium. It wasn't possible for him to be alive, or to be revived by the Queen after what he had done.

"How..." her weak voice escaped her mouth and the child in front of her just laughed in return. She needed more power to save her friends. She needed more knowledge to defeat him. Then something finally came to her mind, it would be risky and she had never had done this before but she would do it anyway. "Bye Setsuna, I hope you understand. I will come back."

The little girl ran in Saturn's direction hopping to prevent what she thought the sailor was doing. But she was too late, a barrier was raised and she couldn't reach the warrior.

"Don't even think about it!" The girl yelled with rage. "My lord wants you alive!"

"I already did and if your lord wants me let him seek me." With that Saturn closed her eyes and started an old chant in The Silent Language. "I, bearer of the Silence Glaive, Messiah of Silence, Sailor of Death and Rebirth command that my domain's gates open for me. Domains of Souls open for your ruler!"

The earth shook in that moment and the girl finally showed some fear in front of the great power in front of her. Sailor Saturn opened her eyes and smile before being engulfed by thousands of shadows. One second later the girls was once more alone with just the black crystals with her in that empty temple.

Gates of Time

"Where is she!" Charon appeared from nowhere and gripped Setsuna's arms harshly. "Tell me!"

Setsuna looked at his eyes filled with rage and madness. She couldn't help but think that if he didn't killed her before, now he would if she didn't answer.

"She went to the Domains of Souls to be reborn again in another place, probably another dimension. It's a risky move but I believe she has what it takes. Why are you so interested in her?" The Guardian of Time thanked that her voice didn't crack.

"Why shouldn't I? After all, she was a part of my past, just like you… "His eyes gleamed before he disappeared in darkness.

The warrior of time once more fought against tears before saying:

"I pray that your plan works, Hotaru!"
