Well, here it is! Chapter 6!!!! Just a little side note, I changed the
history of the scouts just a tad. I took Serenity's death from the manga
because it's sadder but I added a bit of my own. It's just that both the
manga and the anime don't really give much info about the Silver
Millennium.
Personal notes:
mae- Look! I updated! About the outers and Mamoru.. I don't know if I am going to include them yet. But they may show up just for you ^_~ Hope you like this chapter!!!
Alanna Copper- I absolutely love your name!!! The Lioness books and the Immortals series have to be my fave books of all time!!! And again, maybe the outers will make an appearance.
To everyone else who reviewed THANK YOU!!!! Y'all are the best!!!
I no own Sailor Moon or Charmed.

"Well," Usagi started. "It all started over 1,000 years ago."
"Over a thousand years ago?" Paige muttered. "And we thought our legacy was old!"
Piper and Phoebe smiled then turned back to the blonde, who grinned and then continued.
"See, back then my mother ruled over the universe as Queen Serenity of the White Moon. That was a period of peace over all the planets. Anyway, after I was born, the princesses of each planet came to the moon to be my guardians."
"Whoa, wait.." Piper sighed. "You are from the Moon?"
Usagi nodded and pointed to Minako. "Minako is the princess of Venus, Rei, the princess of Mars, Makoto, the princess of Jupiter, and Ami, the princess of Mercury."
"So you guys are over a thousand years old?" Phoebe asked softly.
"Not exactly," Usagi said. "See, when I was fourteen back then our kingdom was attacked by an evil force..."
She was interrupted by another voice in the doorway. "Why don't you just show them, Usagi-chan?"
Everyone turned to look at the newcomer. The Halliwells gasped in shock and Leo just blinked. The only thing in the door was a solid black cat beside a solid white cat.
"Oh! I didn't think about that!" Usagi grinned. "I just got this power a few weeks ago. So, it's still new to me."
The cats walked in and stopped in front of the three witches and Leo. The black one spoke first. "I am Luna, the princess's advisor and this is Artemis, the advisor of Minako and the other scouts."
Piper opened her mouth as if to speak but then closed it. She had seen plenty of weird stuff today; this just added to the pile.
But Phoebe had plenty to say. "Why can you talk and advise them but our cat, Kit, couldn't talk and tell us what was going on in our screwed up lives?"
"Well," Artemis said. "She isn't from the moon, is she?"
Luna sighed and shook her head. She turned back to Usagi and nodded. "Usagi- chan, show them the past. That will be so much easier."
Usagi nodded. "Don't freak out, okay. You'll be surrounded by light and then you'll be in the past. But you will only be viewing it. You can't talk to anyone and no one will be able to see you."
"Cool!" Phoebe said. "What a power!"
"We didn't always have such great powers," Minako said. "Usagi just got this power after we defeated our last enemy. The four of us also got a cool new power as well."
"Okay, enough talk," Rei said. "I want to be finished with this by dinner."
Everyone grinned then Usagi closed her eyes.
Piper didn't really understand what was happening but she knew she was being surrounded by a bright (really bright) light. 'I should keep my eyes open,' she thought but her eyes seemed to work on their own and closed, blocking out the light as best they could. And when they opened, she was in a huge hall with Phoebe, Paige, and Leo beside her.
"Are we-" Paige began.
"In the past?" Phoebe finished for her.
"Give that back, Rei!!"
The four Americans turned and saw a small version of Usagi running after a small version of Rei. Usagi was in a nice little dress while Rei was in her scout uniform.
"I guess we are," Piper whispered.
The two little girls ran past them, Usagi still yelling at Rei. But they were stopped by a beautiful woman who resembled Usagi as she rounded the corner in front of them.
"What seems to be the problem, you two?" the woman asked quietly.
Usagi ran up to her, passing the stilled Rei. "Mama, Rei took my crayon!"
"So, that's the queen," Leo muttered.
The queen looked at Rei, who was looking at the floor. "Rei, is this true?"
There was a pause and then Rei finally answered. "Hai, your Majesty."
The queen smiled and patted Usagi on the back. "Serenity, Rei, you girls go back to the playroom. And no more fighting."
"Serenity?" Piper asked.
"Must have been her name back then," Leo stated.
"But why is Rei's name still the same?"
Phoebe shrugged. "I guess we'll have to ask when we get back."
"How old do you think they are here?" Paige asked.
There was a small pause. "I'm guessing around five or six," Piper answered.
Suddenly there was a flash of light and the three witches and one whitelighter were engulfed by white lights again. When it faded away they were in a small classroom with what looked like nine year old versions of the senshi and the princess. There was a small man in front of them, obviously teaching.
"So, after the reign of King Smalton of Pluto," the teacher was saying.
The young girls all had different expressions on their faces. Ami was listening diligently, Makoto was just staring at the teacher with a glazed look in her eyes, Minako was drawing small hearts all over the table she was sitting at, Serenity had her head in her arms sleeping soundly, and Rei was poking her with her pencil.
"School," Phoebe whispered. "It never changes, even after 1,000 years."
Serenity suddenly woke up with a shriek and glared over at Rei. "Rei, you meanie!"
The teacher stopped and the other girls looked over at the two. Minako started giggling, Makoto grinned, and Ami just shook her head.
"Princess, Rei?" The teacher crossed his arms. "What is the problem?"
"Rei was poking me!"
"Serenity was sleeping and I was trying to wake her up without her getting in trouble!" The small Rei sniffed. "But a lot of good that did."
Serenity pouted. "Well, you could have just shaken me awake!"
Rei snorted in laughter. "That wouldn't have helped at all!!!"
The other three scouts started laughing out loud, causing the teacher to sigh. Shaking his head he said, "Class is dismissed for the day. We weren't getting anywhere anyway."
The laughing stopped, along with the arguing, and everyone scrambled out, talking and giggling.
As the girls passed the four viewers, Serenity glared at Rei and said, "You just can't seem to pick on me enough can you?"
And then, the light surrounded them again but when it faded this time, they were in a huge ballroom with people everywhere.
"Whoa, I want a dress like that!" Paige said in awe, pointing at a woman dancing close to them.
At that moment, the ballroom started to shake and everyone started screaming.
"The palace is under attack!" A passing noble yelled. "The Negaverse has finally come!"
The queen stood up from her throne and seemed to be looking for someone. The four Americans watched her face go from searching to frantic. One of the senshi ran up to her. It was Venus.
"Majesty," the senshi said. "We cannot find Serenity anywhere. Mars said she saw her with some man an hour ago but she hasn't been seen since."
The queen gasped and looked out of a window. "Endymion," was all she said. Then she turned back to Venus. "Gather the other senshi. We may die tonight but we will not go down without a fight."
Venus' face seemed to go through a full range of emotions until she finally nodded. "Hai, Majesty. We will protect your daughter with everything we have." And she ran off and was joined by Mars, Jupiter, and Mercury at the door.
The ballroom was deserted except for the queen and the four invisible people. The queen sighed and sat back down on the throne. For a moment, it looked like she was about to break down and start crying but she suddenly stood up and held her head high. "You will get out of this, my daughter. And you will someday be queen."
She walked out. And with a flash of light, the four were transported to the battlefield. In front of them were the four senshi, fighting not only for their lives but also for the life of their princess and best friend. But one by one they went down and with their dying breath they whispered "For you, Serenity."
Another flash and the group was behind Serenity and some black haired man. And in front of the couple was a hideous red-haired woman seemingly floating in mid-air.
"The line of the White Moon royalty dies today!" The woman said.
"You will have to get through me first, Beryl!" the man said, stepping in front of the princess.
"No, Endy," Serenity said.
Endymion looked back at her. "Serenity, I love you so much. And I will find you. Don't forget me."
That's when Beryl shot him with her dark energy. He gasped and fell to the ground. Serenity fell to her knees beside him, sobbing. "No, Endymion. No! You can't leave me!" She continued to sob into his chest until Beryl started laughing.
"Aww, the poor princess is left alone with no one to protect her."
Serenity looked up, her face streaked with tears and glared at the woman. "You haven't won yet, Beryl. My mother will defeat you and you will pay for what you have done!" The young girl then drew her love's sword from his side and stabbed herself in the chest. She was dead before she hit the ground.
Piper gasped in shock and felt tears well up in her eyes.
"Oh my God!" Phoebe said.
Paige and Leo just stared at the scene before them.
"She was right, Beryl." Everyone, including Beryl, looked toward the voice. Queen Serenity was standing there with what looked like a crystal in her hands. "I may not be able to kill you here but I can seal you away." She held up the crystal. "I hope I never see you again, Beryl. You are more than evil and you will most definitely pay for what you have done."
Beryl screamed at the top of her lungs and all the beings fighting for her stopped and screamed as well. They were engulfed in a bright light, sealed in tiny bubbles and suddenly shot into space, their screams dying out.
The queen collapsed after they were gone. The four ran up to her, forgetting for a second that they couldn't be seen. But two cats reached her first.
"Majesty," Luna whispered. "Are you alright?"
"I am about to die, Luna. But not before I do one more thing."
Artemis cocked his head to one side. "What is that, my queen?"
"Send my daughter, her scouts and friends, and her love to the future where they will lead a normal life until they are needed to protect the world."
The two cats gasped. "But that will surely kill you!" Luna exclaimed.
The queen smiled sadly. "Yes, but Serenity will live on. She will one day be queen and that is enough to make me happy." She held up the crystal again. "And you two will be with them. Make me proud and be happy."
The two cats were engulfed with the light and soon, every single body on the Moon floor was floating up into the air along with the cats. They soon disappeared as well, leaving the queen alone.
"Farewell, my daughter." She closed her eyes. "I love you." And then, she was dead.
The four viewers didn't have much time to grieve because they were surrounded with the light again. But this time, when they opened their eyes they were standing in Rei's room with the girls talking and eating cookies. When the four appeared, everyone looked up and all smiled.
"How was it?" Makoto asked.
No one answered for a while. Then Piper started crying, followed by Phoebe and then Paige. Leo just gathered his wife into his arms and the other two clung to them as well.
"Oh." Usagi grimaced. "I forgot to warn you about that."
"What," Piper said between tears. "That you all died a horrible death?"
"Yeah but we came back!" Minako said.
"But still," Paige began.
"Hey, look on the bright side," Rei said. "We're all still healthy girls. And we have died a few times. We can handle death..unless Usagi can't bring us back."
Everyone started laughing, the three sisters louder than anyone else. Even though they really didn't understand the comment, it did make them feel better.
After a few minutes of laughter and small talk, Piper finally spoke up. "Well, now that we know the details of your history, it's our turn. Unfortunately, we don't have anything like that.."
"Oooo, wait!!" Paige exclaimed. "Yeah, we do!"
To be continued.....
