Yay! Reviews! Here's the second chapter. Nothing much, just something to
keep the story moving.
No, I DON'T own Sailor Moon or Rurouni Kenshin.
Chapter Two (1880)
Miharu and Kyusuke looked up. The bright light that had seemingly passed over them confused both children. The third party, however, was madly inspecting both the key she wore around her neck and her surroundings.
"Ah! Kyusuke-kun, the grave is gone!" Miharu shrieked.
What the Hell…?
Chibiusa froze. She knew…She just KNEW the time key had been activated, but she hadn't called on it. She didn't understand the situation, but she knew she was in deep trouble. Miharu and Kyusuke were still with her. She didn't know how that was possible, since they didn't have permission to time travel. None of them had gone through the time gate, and that really threw Chibiusa off.
"Chibiusa? Chibiusa!"
She snapped out of her thoughts. Kyusuke had been trying to get her attention.
"What's going on here? The graves are gone! I don't see Rei-chan or Usagi- chan anywhere!"
Miharu was beginning to panic. Kyusuke looked like he was gonna be sick with fright. Chibiusa also felt sick. The mere thought of Miharu panicking really scared Chibiusa since it wasn't in her nature to panic. There was no way out of this situation without telling them who she really was...and at that, Chibiusa started to panic. She wondered if she'd get into trouble if she told them. Then she realized it didn't matter. After all, Motoki knew their identities. That had been unavoidable at the time but things had turned out all right. Yoshi.
"Anou…guys, I have something to tell you…" she began.

"Chibiusa? Chibiusa! Chibiuuuuuuuusa!" Usagi called out again and again.
"Shut up!" yelled Rei, "That's obviously not helping any!"
"But…"
"Let's call the others on the communicator, okay?"
"Okay…" Usagi sniffed.
Minako arrived first with Luna and Artemis. Ami and Makoto got there shortly thereafter. Usagi and Rei told them about the children's disappearances and Ami instantly began scanning the area around the grave.
"I've found something." She declared almost immediately. "I think we'll need Setsuna on this. I've traces of energy associated with time travel. Fingerprints, if you will, of Chibiusa and the others' energy patterns."
"So they're sometime else?" asked Minako
"Hai, that's exactly right," Ami confirmed.
"How should we contact Setsuna then?" asked Usagi.
"Don't worry about that," said Rei, "She always finds us when there's a problem."
"Hai, and that's how I prefer it," a new voice chimed in.
"Konnichiwa Setsuna-san!" welcomed Usagi.
Konnichiwa, Princess." Setsuna responded. "I'm sure you already know there has been some illegal time travel recently."
They all winced at the word illegal. None of them had realized until then that Miharu and Kyusuke could be in trouble for breaking cosmic law.
"You're not gonna kill them, are you?" demanded Makoto, "They're just kids for Kami sake!"
"No I don't think that's necessary. Calm down. I don't think this was intentional by any of the children. I think there's more to it. After I felt the break in the time barrier my ability to see past and future events dulled dramatically. It's strange. It's like my power has been partially drained and it's affecting my vision."
"So…you need to get glasses?" suggested Usagi.
(Insert mass sweat-drop scene here.)
"Then do you know where they went?" asked Luna.
"No."
Usagi began to cry. "Shut up!" Rei shouted. Usagi just cried harder.
"We're (hiccup) never gonna (hiccup) find them (hiccup)…WHAH!"
While the other's tried to quiet down their sobbing leader, Makoto's thoughts wandered to way to find the children.
"Rei! Could you do a fire reading to find them?" she asked.
Usagi stopped crying.
Rei thought for a moment. "I don't see how it could hurt, but I've never used the fire that way before."
"Matte." Ami interrupted. "When I did my scan of the grave something else came up. An energy pattern not related to time travel. Something small, but definitely there. I can't tell whether it's dangerous of not."
"Hey, is it just me or is there something wrong with this grave?" asked Artemis.
Rei gasped. "The grave!" she shouted.
The others looked at her.
"The date look! The date of death is gone!"
The others looked, and indeed the date of Himura Kenshin's death had been erased.
"Anyone who knows when they went, ladies and cats, raise your hands." said Minako who then rose her own hand.
"This is bad. Really, really bad."
"What is it?" asked Makoto.
"This is one of Miharu's ancestors. Her very existence is now threatened. And it seems there are changes taking place in the past already and this is proof."
"Great. Setsuna got an extra time key?"

Like I said, not much right, now. The next chapter will be more interesting.
See ya! ^_^x
