But anyways as long as you review I will continue to right and the more reviews the quicker I update (with the exception of when life prevents me from updating).
Without further adieu here is chapter 3

Chapter 3: new beginnings and consequences
Rei sat staring into the fire, something was wrong and she knew it. The scouts all sat quietly and obediently behind her. It had been three days since Serena had been found dead and three days of changes. Ever since they read the letters Serena left things had been different, little things but things that they couldn't just put their figure on. Ami's computer seemed to have lost access to anything prior to written history and was limited to almost current day technology. Minako's empathic abilities seemed to be non existent and Makoto's natural ability to be a green thumb seemed to have disappeared she couldn't even keep a potted plant alive for more that 48 hours. However Rei's was the worst of all she was loosing her connection to the fire.
"Why great fire? Why are you turning on me? Answer me!" Rei's anger was now as hot as the fire blazing in front of her. "Nothing, we have no answers at all. The fire is blocking me."
"This couldn't be due to the last letter the one that gave us the vision? I mean we all passed out for no reason afterwards." Ami suggested.
Suddenly a bright light shown on top of the fire and an angelically familiar voice spoke, "You are correct, Mercury. You all broke your bond with my daughter, thus breaking the bond with the ties that give you your powers. And with her death more changes will come and due to your impatience and ignorance you will have to persevere through this."
"What are you talking about? The things that are changing are things that we for the most part had before we met your failure of a daughter!"
"Mars, your temper is blinding you. Take you for instance the fire is directly related to your planet, yes you used it prior because my daughter was alive and the power was there to call forth the powers of your planet. You now have the ability of a fire priestess of earth." Silence rang through the room. "Venus' empathic ability, Jupiter's green thumb all stem from your planets. The computer access was opened by my daughter as she knew you would need it; however she had to continually open it and so now that she is gone…" Serenity let herself trail off.
"So you are saying that bimbo took all these things with her?" Makoto yelled standing up.
"No. When you betrayed my daughter and broke the alliance that created your powers you lost connection with them. When Serena died any additional power or help she gave left to the afterlife with her. This is nothing that she controls." Serenity paused. "This is all your own doing. You dug this grave now lay in it. Mercury open your computer I have put there the original treaty that will explain this further but I must go. May the Gods take mercy on you and return to you the only other Moon child."
No one noticed as the queen disappeared as they were all reading over Ami's shoulder. It was as Serenity had said. The only planet or moon born with actual powers was the Sun and the Moon, and when the treaty was signed the royal lines were given access to their planets magical properties as they were to protect the moon royalty. If this vow was ever broken so would be the bond to the planets and any attributes that came with.
Each looked around nervously. They now understood why they passed out because they had betrayed her and allowed her to die. Even if she was still alive then things may have been better.
Serenity and Darien had landed and were enjoying their new home. Classes wouldn't start for another week so they did the tourist thing and saw the sights. Darien could always tell that Serenity missed certain people but they had done what was necessary to keep her alive. He prayed to Selene to allow his princess to make more friends, better friends than the senshi; friends that would protect her, unlike the senshi.
The days passed quickly as the couple was busy getting to know their new home and planning the wedding, as soon as they landed Darien had proposed. Classes started Darien continuing his medical degree and Serenity taking writing and fine arts courses.
Darien smiled as he waited for Serenity to come out of class. His smile grew when he saw her with two blonde haired girls laughing and talking to her. "Darien, I would like you to meet Solana and Astra Bright. Amazingly they are in every one of my classes."
The two sisters laughed, "Well it is nice to meet you both but I must steal my fiancé to continue wedding plans. However if you wish to join you are welcome. "
Serenity nodded that she would like them to come. "We have been here over a week and you are the first friends that we have made."
The twins nodded and followed the couple as they turned and headed to a café for lunch and planning. "She hasn't changed and Endymion is still as proper and gentlemanly as possible." Astra nodded in agreement to her sisters telepathic message.
"Ï can't believe those traitorous Inner senshi. I have never liked Mars especially."
"Well she now has her two loyal cousins and the outer senshi to watch her back."
The sisters smiled they couldn't wait until Serenity remembered them. Once she did it would be like old times.
BANG!
Darien jumped and covered Serenity to prevent her from any harm of the explosion. Turning to check on their new friends they noticed that they were gone, hopefully to a safe location. "Let's find somewhere to transform." Serenity nodded.
After transforming they found a youma attacking a strip mall with two senshi fighting it. "Solar Flare!"
"Burning Star Arrow!"
"Moonlight Kiss!" Serenity in her new sailor fuku called out and the three attacks merged and dusted the monster.
"She is a senshi in this life?"
"The outers never mentioned that! I guess we should introduce or senshi forms, Astra."
"I am Sailor Eclipse and this is my sister Sailor Sun."
"I am Sailor Lunar and this is Moonlight knight." Serenity announced. Her fuku was silver with yellow highlights and the bows were golden. Darien stood in a white tuxedo with a silver mask and tie. (I never liked the Arabian look for him).
"Did I miss it?" came a male's voice.
"And this would be our cousin Sailor Sol. Sol I would like to introduce you to Sailor Lunar and Moonlight Knight."
"Is this my sister and Endymion? It shouldn't be they are suppose to be in Japan safe with the Inners."
"Long story, cus. But you might want to say something to them and we will explain later."
"Pleasure to meet such an enchanting Princess, and this must be your Prince. Greetings."
Both Lunar and Moonlight were thrown back into a memory of long ago.
They were standing next to Queen Serenity waiting for someone to arrive. The ship finally docked and out came two girls and a boy. "Mother, it is a pleasure to be back on the moon."
"My son it is good to see you are safe. Are these your cousins?" The boy nodded.
"Father's sister gave birth to them while away in another solar system. May I introduce Sailor Eclipse, Princess Astraliana; and her twin Sailor Sun, Princess Solania of the sun kingdom."
"Tranquility, tell me in the past two years you haven't forgotten us?" Serenity asked.
"How could anyone forget such an enchanting Princess and her beau? Any plans for a wedding yet, Endy?"
Snapping out of the memory, both whispered, "The sun children."
"Tranquility? Solania and Astaliana? Is it really you?" Serenity asked but they were gone.
Well that is it for this chapter. I hope you enjoyed it .
Tranquility is not my own creation but jendra's from Universal (http/members. ) However this is my story and doesn't line up with hers. But He is her creation and to get some more info on him you can check out her story. Astra and Solana however are mine.
