Disclaimers: I don't own Harry Potter and Sailor Moon. I, however, do own Artcelle and Shayne (who is obviously me… P). Pairings are still the same. I hope Draco-lovers doesn't get mad at me (I love him too… so please don't get mad…). I decided to put all these three chapters in just one long chapter: Serenity's Naïve Past (chapter 7), Artcelle's Memorable Past (chapter 8), Shayne's Sordid Past (chapter 9). This is now chapter seven. I hope you all like this story… So without further ado…

Surprising Revelations…

By shaynemalfoy

Chapter 7: What's Past is Past…

Serenity went inside the Gates closely followed by Shayne and Artcelle. The rest hesistantly followed, unsure of what to expect.

When they were inside the Time Gates, Serenity suddenly stopped them. She warned them that it be best that all they see here will stay with them. That they are not allowed to tell other people what they will find out in their 'journey'.

"My name before was Usagi Tsukino." Serenity began. "Everything began when I was fourteen. Since then I became Fate's favorite toy."

They were about to ask her why she said that but Serenity just said that all they have to do is watch.

The scene in front of them changed.

Usagi's mother called for Usagi as it was past 8:00 AM. Usagi was still sleeping.

When Usagi got up she asked her mother to wake her up earlier. Usagi's mother said that she did, but Usagi didn't wake up.

When Usagi was about to leave without her lunch, her mother gave it to her.

Usagi was walking to school knowing that she would be late.

When she walked by a parking lot, Usagi saw a bunch of little kids picking on a cat.

She chased the kids away and saved the little black cat.

The cat had a band-aid on her forehead. When Usagi took the band-aid off, the cat jumped away and stared at Usagi.

Then Usagi remembered that she was late for school and ran off.

The teacher made Usagi stand outside of the classroom for being late. Because Usagi was hungry, she took out her lunch and started to eat it.

Then the teacher caught her and told her that this was the reason why Usagi always did bad in her school work. The teacher gave back Usagi's test, in which she had scored 30 points.

Later Usagi was feeling very down and was with her friend Naru-chan.

Then a classmate Umino came by and said that he didn't try hard on the last test either.

Umino had scored 95 points.

Naru-chan changed the subject and told Usagi that Sailor V had caught a jewel thief.

But Usagi did not know who or what Sailor V was.

Umino explained that Sailor V was a girl in a sailor suit who went around catching criminals.

Then Naru-chan and Usagi both said that they understood why someone would want to steal jewels. Umino began to worry about the two girls.

Then Naru-chan told Usagi that there was a bargain sale going on at her mother's jewelry store. Usagi said that she wanted to go.

There was a big crowd at Naru-chan's mother's store. Naru-chan's mother was going around gathering people.

But it was not really her. It was really one of Jadeite's youmas.

When Naru-chan introduced Usagi to her mother, her mother said that she would make it extra cheap for Usagi. Usagi was very happy.

Then Naru-chan's mother showed Usagi a 500,000 yen diamond. She said that she would let Usagi have it for 30,000 yen! Then a fat old woman came up, hit Usagi away, and said that she would take it.

More people came, so Usagi and Naru-chan had to crawl away. Usagi was disappointed as she could not even afford the 30,000 yen.

Also since she only got a 30 on her test and her grades weren't very good, her father wouldn't buy her anything. Usagi left feeling very disappointed.

When Usagi went outside, she crumpled up her test and threw it away.

Then a voice behind her said, "That hurts, odango atama." Usagi's test had hit someone's head. The guy looked at the test score and told Usagi that she should study more.

Usagi got mad, took the test back, and started walking home. When Usagi passed by the game center, she noticed that the Sailor V game had come out.

"Odango atama?" Severus asked. Serenity giggled as she replied. "Meatball head… that was what Mamo-chan used to tease me. Said that my hair reminds him of meatballs."

Severus felt a spark of jealousy. "Mamo-chan…?"

"Her husband…" Shayne suddenly deadpanned. This amused everyone, except the Potions Master.

When Usagi got home, her mother said that she found out from Umino that the tests had been returned that day.

Usagi's mother asked Usagi what score she had gotten, and asked to see the test. When she saw the 30, she got mad and threw Usagi out of the house.

Shingo, Usagi's younger brother, came up and kicked Usagi.

Shingo said that he wanted an older sister that was a little bit smarter than Usagi.

When Usagi got mad, Shingo rushed into the house.

At Naru-chan's mother's store, a lot of the women who bought jewelry were passing out. Naru-chan wondered what was happening. Naru-chan's mother, who was possessed by a youma was thinking that she had collected a lot of energy so far.

"What's a youma?" Hermione asked.

"Youmas are like demons only they take energy. They feed on it. They are not really that intelligent and most of them are just minions." Serenity explained.

"How come I wasn't told of all this?" Artcelle asked.

Shayne answered her sister's question. "Because you didn't have too know. You lived a happy life. We want to keep it that way."

"How come you know…" Draco asked.

Shayne looked at Serenity. "Because I need to. I will inherit the same destiny. That's why I have to know."

They were about to ask more questions when they were distracted by the next scene.

Then the youma spotted Naru-chan. Usagi was lying on her bed after her mother finally let her in.

She didn't feel like doing homework, so she fell asleep. Then the little black cat that Usagi had saved earlier came in through the window.

Usagi woke up and said, "Oh! The crescent shaped bald spot from this morning."

The cat replied, "It's not a bald spot. How rude." Usagi was shocked that the cat talked. "My name is Luna. I've been looking for you, Usagi."

Usagi was getting blue in the face. Then she tried to sleep again. But Luna said that it wasn't a dream.

Then Luna gave Usagi a brooch to wake her up.

Luna said, "There are a lot of strange incidents going on all over Tokyo. The enemy has appeared! Usagi, you have to beat this enemy. You were chosen to be a fighter. The other mission is to find the princess with our friends.."

But Usagi was just playing with her new brooch.

Luna thought that Usagi didn't believe her and told her to say, "Moon prism power, make up."

When Usagi said those words, she began to transform.

Usagi transformed into Sailor Moon.

Usagi was very surprised and still didn't believe it. Then she heard Naru-chan's voice, "Help, my mother.."

Luna told Usagi that she had to go help Naru-chan.

In the jewelry store, the youma was choking Naru-chan.

Then Sailor Moon appeared. "Get away from Naru-chan!"

When the youma asked who she was, Sailor Moon answered, "For love and justice, the sailor suit beautiful girl fighter! Sailor Moon!"

Then the youma used her power to revive all of the women that had passed out.

The youma made them attack Sailor Moon.

Sailor Moon was scared and just backed away.

Luna told her to fight, but Sailor Moon didn't.

She just started crying.

Then someone threw a rose as the youma was going to attack Sailor Moon.

A masked man in a tuxedo appeared. He said, "I'm Tuxedo Kamen! Nothing will be solved if you just cry, Sailor Moon!" But Sailor Moon just kept crying.

Her voice got amplified and started to defeat the youma.

Luna told Sailor Moon to take her tiara and throw it saying, "Moon tiara action!" Sailor Moon asked why she had to do that, but Luna told her to just do it.

Then Sailor Moon threw the tiara and defeated the youma.

Tuxedo Kamen said, "That was great Sailor Moon. I'll remember what happened tonight," and left.

Luna said that Sailor Moon did well, but Sailor Moon's eyes were filled with hearts.

The next day at school, Naru-chan said that she saw a beautiful dream.

She said that someone called Sailor Moon had defeated a monster.

Then some classmates said that they had seen the same dream.

Usagi was sleeping on her desk and told them to be quiet because she was tired.

Usagi is sitting in the living room reading some funny manga.

She laughs loudly until her mother tells her to stop and asks her how she did on the latest test. Usagi says the results would be posted the next day.

Usagi tries to argue that someone has to come in first, and someone HAS to come in last, so she shouldn't be blamed should it happen to be her.

Her mother doesn't like that reasoning a lot.

At night, Usagi and Luna argue over studying, as Usagi was again reading the manga.

Luna tries to remind her of their purpose to fight evil and find the princess.

Later that night, at the Crown Game Center, Luna sneaks in and talks to the Sailor V game.

The game is in fact a secret communications device.

The game warns Luna that the enemy might have sent a youma to stop them.

Since then, they saw Serenity's past as if they were watching a movie.

They saw how she found all the remaining Senshis.

How she found out that she was Princess Serenity, and how she died.

They saw her love life.

Their battles and how they all died only to be reborn again to fight.

They saw all the people she met.

The people who fell for Usagi.

The time she became Neo-Queen Serenity.

They found out that the man who used to tease Usagi became her boyfriend and later on her husband.

The time she died in the arms of her king.

Finally, they saw her new life as Serenity Moon.

"I remember everything that happened in my life. My duty is still not finished. But I am happy that everyone I loved now has a chance to live a normal life." Serenity said as she remembered the last time she saw everyone dear to her.

The world around them seemed to shake as the colors around them swirled as they now changed to Artcelle's past.

The scene changed.

They saw Artcelle growing up.

Her mother remarried and they formed a happy family. Her childhood was pretty normal.

Severus was very happy that Artcelle had a father figure who loved her very much.

They were all sadden when in the next scene they found Artcelle, now ten years old, crying on her bed.

She just found out that her mother and stepfather died in a plane crash.

She was sent to an orphanage and they saw that the woman they knew as Sailor Pluto take the girl from the orphanage and brought her to the Time Gates.

The world around them swirled. The colors are spinning in every possible direction.

They all knew that the past that they are to visit soon was the past of the Potion's Masters temperamental older daughter.

They braced themselves for what they were about to see but even with all their preparation, they were all; besides Serenity, Artcelle and Shayne; confused when the world around them suddenly stopped with them standing in a dark room.

The moonlight that seeped through a small parted area of the curtains showed that this was a bedroom.

"What's that?" Minerva asked suddenly.

Everyone listened closely.

Artcelle looked at her sister sadly.

They all followed the noise that they were quite sure was the sound of a child crying.

They were in front of the bed when the door of the bedroom suddenly flew open.

A beautiful dark haired woman came in with an angry look at her face.

She looked around and she heard the crying sound. "Victoria…" Severus said as he recognized the woman.

The said woman stormed towards the closet.

She pulled the closet door open and they saw a small child cowering in the corner, trying her best to press herself to the back of the closet, willing herself to disappear.

"Get out of there Shayne…" Victoria Vallesant ordered.

The girl looked up at her. Fear coursed through her body. Tears falling down her face.

The look on her face surprised them all.

They looked at Shayne and saw her looking at the scene with a blank expression.

"Get out!" Victoria yelled as she roughly pulled the girl out, throwing Shayne to the floor.

Then they saw that the back of the child's white gown was spattered with brown-red stains.

Bloodstains.

Severus muttered a curse as he sees his daughter being treated this way. His emotions flared of rage at the sight of blood on her gown.

They looked at her closely.

Long dark hair, fine-boned and fragile, she looked closer to six than ten in her prim, full-skirted white nightgown.

"You read my mind again didn't you? Didn't you!" Her mother screamed at her.

"I didn't mean to Mama… honest… I didn't mean to…" Shayne said as she cried harder.

"Liar!" Her mother hissed as she back handed her daughter.

Shayne fell down because of the impact .

This scene angered everyone specially Severus, Serenity, Artcelle and Draco.

Victoria then grabbed Shayne's arm and dragged her out of the room.

The scene changed to that of a dungeon.

They saw Victoria appear, still dragging Shayne.

Victoria opened a cell door then threw Shayne in and locked the door.

"You're a disgrace…" Victoria began, voice laced with venom. "If your father saw you he'll be ashamed for having you as a daughter. Ugly…useless… weak… pitiful girl. You'll disgrace the Snape family. Severus will never accept you. You're the reason for all my bad luck. You're better off dead. Listen and always remember girl… your worth nothing… you are nothing… you'll never be anything."

Victoria then smirked as she looked at the broken form of her daughter.

She turned her back and left the dungeon, never seeing her daughter sending her a dark glare.

The scene changed again, this time they found themselves in front of the Vallesant Manor.

The said Manor is now on fire.

To be continued…

Author's note: Thank you for reading my story… Sorry that I didn't elaborate Artcelle's past. I mean she had a happy life and I very well can't write how her parents died seeing that she wasn't in the plane with them when they died. Anyway the continuation of Shayne's past will be in the next chapter…
