"and mamodos, and the keys to to the tooniverse."
"and a boy and a Girl named ???/AC and ???/Kimi."
"First we must start with the regression of a dimention's Earth"
--------------------------------------------
Setsuna had gotten up before anyone else in the apartment and got the morning paper. She opened it up and saw a headline "Pluto demoted: IAU has reclassified the former ninth planet". She sweatdropped, looking at it. "Oh man, you have got to be kidding me" she said, dreading what was going to happen as she did her morning ritual or cleaning herself up. She had gotten into the shower as thinking a long soak would make her feel a little better. By the time she got out the room was filled with steam. As she was drying off she noticed something wasn't quite right in the chest area, after wiping off the mirror to check she screamed waking the others up.
Michiru woke up and rubbed her eyes, walking into the other room. "What's going on?" she asked, yawning and stretching. "You alright Setsu?"
Haruka looked into the room. "Oh my God! What happened to you?!" Setsuna now looked like she was about nine or ten years old.
"Look at what those Pinheads did to me!"
"My word!" Michiru said, walking over to her and kneeling down, examining her. "Why would they do something like this?" she asked, as Haruka, walked over and lifted up the paper.
"I think I have an idea..."
They read the article and Michiru shook her head. "Just because some astronomers say that Pluto is no longer a planet, Setsuna shouldn't just have gotten younger than this."
Haruka shook her head. "I don't know weirder things have happened to us.
"Well then, I wonder when this will all end" she said, now looking around the age of six.
"Probably has something to do with how the planet is now labeled. Michiru, what are they calling Pluto now?" she asked, looking through boxes of Hotaru's old clothing.
"A dwarf planet, but I still don't see how a bunch of astronomers changing a name could do something like this." said Michiru. "Maybe we should call the others, Luna and Artemis may have some idea on what's going on.
"Yeah, go ahead and get them Mich, I am going to redress her" she said, lifting up Setsuna and putting her on the bed. "Hope you don't mind" she said to the tiny girl.
Setsuna's fore head started looking blue. "Um, Haruka does your head go over the top of that self on the wall?" Haruka look confused "Yes why?" "Because now it's level." Haruka temple began to pulse. "What ever you have had better not be catching!"
Michiru looked nervous. "Um... Do you think it will affect me?" she asked, looking at the now infantile Pluto and the youthening Uranus
"Just in case maybe you should drive us to the shrine, at this rate I may not reach the pedals not to mention what would happen if a cop pulled us over. You get Hotaru, I'll take Setsuna."
"Alright" she said, running into the other room and picking up the younger girl, who was still peacefully asleep. "Ready to go?" she asked, putting jackets on both of them.
A short drive later they arrived at the shrine, Michiru was affected slightly on the way as she had to readjust the seat twice to drive, Haruka now looked like a twelve year old, Setsuna was silently sobbing and the still sleeping Hotaru was starting to be affected, though only slightly at this point.
Michiru got out, picking up the two smallest girls. "We're very lucky we got here this fast. I think I just went to the point before driving school" she said nervously.
"At least you can still reach the pedal" came Setsuna's little voice, tears still streaming from her eyes as she sniffled.
They went up the steps to the shrine and went into the meeting room, The Inner Senshi were also showing signs of regression, looking like they belonged in grade school, however the cats seemed normal. "Well I bet you know why we're all here." Michiru said with a half-hearted laugh.
Rei grumbled, looking up at them. "Well, I guess we aren't the only ones that are effected" Ami said, scribbling down notes.
"Why ya think this is happening?" Usagi asked.
"This seemed to start when I found out that my world was demoted to a dwarf planet." Setsuna squeaked. "But I don't know how it's affecting all of you."
Luna spoke up. "Well your powers although separate are still connected, so whatever is affecting Pluto is affecting all of you through your connection."
"So, you▓re basically saying that the entire universe is being demoted just because she is!" yelled Minako, looking at Luna.
"Well, it▓s more complicated than that. You see..." Artemis started.
"I don't care!" said Haruka.
"Yeah, how do we fix it!?" Usagi yelled standing and pointing.
"Heh. Seems the blondes are freaking again" Rei whispered to Makoto, with a grin.
"Well, I guess we just have to get the IAU to reverse their decision." said Minako.
"I don't think they'll change something like that just because we tell them to." said the now Toddler Hotaru.
"Well, the real question is, what are we gonna do? I mean, we can't fight crime like this." Ami said, now looking like a kindergartener.
"By the way, where is Chibi-usa?" Makoto asked.
"Back in the future." said Setsuna. "Although I have no idea right now how this is affecting her, if she still even exists."
"Well Setsuna, don't you still have your powers at least? Or did they take them?" Ami asked, looking over her spiral notebook.
"I can try." she said. "PLUTO PLANET POWER! MAKE UP!" The transformation worked but instead of her skirt a black colored diaper covered everything from between her legs to just below the bow on her chest. "DEAD SCREAM!" the orb was smaller and hit Usagi by accident, but all it caused her to do was giggle. "Hey that tickles!"
"Um... Interesting..." Ami said, scribbling down some more, now squeezing the pencil in her fist because she was too small now to hold in normally. "What are the ages now?" she asked, looking around at everyone.
"Setsuna and Hotaru are infants." said Artemis. "Haruka and Michiru are kindergartners and the rest of you are toddlers."
"Maybe you should all transform." said Luna. "At least this way we don't have to worry about clothes for you, let▓s just pray that a Youma doesn't choose now to attack us."
They all nodded, and a minute later, they were all in uniform, with the same embarrassing change as Setsuna. "Um... These feel weird" Usagi said, pulling at the diaper.
"We may be in these for a while so get used to them." said Michiru looking like, at least for the moment, she didn't need them. "I'm more worried about how we explain this to our friends and family."
"I suggest we keep it secret, maybe say that we are on a school trip" Ami said, Standing and toddling back and forth, thinking. "Then we find a way to investigate. For now, it seems that we still have our minds, which we should be thankful for" she said grimly, "But, from the way things are progressing, I think our minds will develop to match our bodies, though at an extremely slow pace..."
"Alright then we can't stay here." said Rei. "Does anyone know where we can stay while this is happening?" Makoto raised her hand. "I know where there's an old nursery school, they moved to another building but some of the stuff is still there so in case our bodies need anything like that we can hold out for a little while."
"Alright, but the problem is... How are we going to get there? It would look strange for a group of babies to walk down the street" Makoto said.
"We could try the Sailor Teleport." said Hotaru. "But we may have to do it more than once to get there,"
"Hm... Well, let's all try it together, so we could get farther and have to use less teleports" Ami said, getting on the table. "Alright, let's get in a circle, and gather what energy we have" she said.
