Konicchiwa minna-san! I got done with my chores and literally finished typing this chapter a few seconds ago. I want to thank so many people for reading this story and leaving great review. It means alot to me. ALOT. I'm still writing chapter four but I'll have it out soon. ^-^
Disclaimer: OK. Time for the hard part...I don't own Salior Moon.
"Oh, this suuuuucks!" I wailed.
Tuxedo Kamen rubbed my shoulder, trying to console me. "Usako, don't cry," he said gently.
"I have every right to cry!" I snapped. "Disappearing is soooo paaaainfuuul!"
He fell down anime-style. "THAT'S why you're crying? You're not worried about the dying part?"
"You wouldn't knooooow! You only turned evil and got moon tiara-sliced. I disappeared!"
Serenity sighed. "Guys," she yelled loud enough to get our attention. "We can still save our time periods."
I shut up. "R-really?" I sniffed.
The queen nodded. "Right now, we need to get to the moon."
"You must hurry," Pluto announced. "You only have until the prince's and princess's wedding. If you don't correct history by then…"
We nodded to let her know that we got the idea. "Pluto," I said with a new resolved, "could you please teleport us to the moon?"
Pluto hesitated. "I used the last of the control I had on my power when I brought Neo-Queen Serenity to your time. Until history settles, my power are unpredictable. Go through the time gate and I'll get you as close as I can." We followed her instructions. "Goodbye, my princess, prince, and queen. I wish you the best of luck on your journey."
In a flash, we fell headfirst into a pile of snow. Somehow, the queen made even THAT look graceful. How annoying…
Tuxedo Kamen wiped wiper the snow off his cape. "Where are we?"
"Mercury," Neo-Queen Serenity and I said together.
"Really?" Tuxedo Kamen yelled towards the heavens. "You couldn't get us closer than this?"
There was a sparkle in the sky, followed by screams. I couldn't figure out where the screams were coming from or why the figures in the sky were getting bigger. Then it hit me. Actually, THEY hit me. Four of them to be exact.
"Mako!" Sailor Mars screamed. "Get your hands off my butt!"
"How come every time we time travel, Mercury ends up on top?" complained Jupiter.
Sailor Venus laughed. "That's what she said!"
I growled. "I don't care what she said! V-chan, GET OFF!"
The senshi gasped and scrambled to get off of me. Mars and Venus helped me up. I glared at Tuxedo Kamen. "Notice that every time you yell at Pluto, I get hurt!"
"Sorry, Usako," he mumbled back.
Mercury cleared her throat. "If you two are done, the princess and senshi came here to ice skate quite often. We may want to make our way to the Mercurian Palace."
"You guys know?" I asked in surprise.
Mars poked my forehead. "No thanks to you, Odango Atama! Stop trying to handle things without us!"
Jupiter nodded. "That's right Usagi! We're your protectors. Let us do our jobs."
I nodded. "Gomen," I said softly. "I should have called when the wavy things started happening. Or when Chibi-Usa disappeared. Or when I told Mom that I was Sailor Moon and Chibi-Usa's biological mother…"
"WHAT?"
I blinked. "Y-you guys didn't know that, did you?"
Rei punched me. "BAKA!" she screamed. "Your only daughter, who is also the PRINCESS of the Earth AND Moon, goes missing and you didn't think that was worth calling the senshi?"
"Rei, you jerk!" I wailed. "Don't punch me! I bruise like a peach…"
"Don't insult the fruit by comparing yourself to it!"
"Why can't you be nice?"
"Why can't you be smart?"
"Jerk!"
"Dork!"
"Loser!"
"Enough!" Serenity boomed. Rei knew to obey even me when I used that tone so of course she would obey Serenity. As for me, why would I argue with myself? "We don't have time for petty arguments! We must find Serenity and Endymion!"
We sniffed nodded. "Sorry," we both had the decency to say.
"Mercury," the queen took her attention away from Mars and me. "How far is the palace?"
Mercury pulled a small blue laptop with the symbol for Mercury on it out of her sub-space pocket. She quickly typed and symbols flashed on and off the screen. I'd never understand what that thing said. IQ of 300, indeed. "Approximately 25 miles north."
"Okay!" Venus exclaimed, grabbing Jupiter's and Mars' hands. "Let's Sailor Teleport and kick some royal butt!"
"Minako!" Mamo-chan and I cried together.
Venus sweatdropped. "Y-you know. To save our princess and the future and all…"
Mars and Jupiter snatched their hands away. "Geez, Venus," Mars rolled her eyes, "you're too bubbly for your own good."
Minako-chan grinned. "If the flu's sick…"
It was Jupiter's turn to roll her eyes. "It's 'if the shoe fits,' V-chan."
"Besides," Mercury jumped into the conversation, "According to the computer, since Beryl's attack, all the planets have been keeping track of the amount of magic in the Solar System. A Sailor Teleport would release too much energy,"
"But we're the Sailor Senshi!" Venus objected. "They'll surely it go!"
"Sure," Tuxedo Kamen said sarcastically. "They'll let go Sailor Doubles and two extra Serenitys with a plan to kill everyone so they can be reborn on Earth."
"Mamoru is right," the queen agreed. "It would be too suspicious to walk around as we are now."
I reached into my sub-space pocket and pulled out the Luna Pen. "We can disguise ourselves." I suggested.
Ami bit her lip and typed some more. "Seven people," she finally said, "would give off too much magic to belong to a Mercurian. If it was only the five of us then it would work…"
"Mamo-chan and I don't need the Luna Pen," I said quickly.
"We don't?" Mamo-chan questioned me.
"Nope," I replied. I de-transformed. "We don't look exactly like our past incarnates in our civilian form like you guys thanks to the Silver Crystal. All we need is some different clothes."
With all of us agreeing, I gave the pen to Serenity. "Luna Pen!" she yelled, "turn the inner senshi and I into normal Silver Millennium citizens!"
There was a bright flash. In the queen's place, there was a girl with brown hair with brown eyes and shoulder-length black hair. She look like she was in her late teens. Instead of her royal gown, she wore a beautiful lavender dress with spaghetti strap. It barely reached her ankles. Serenity giggled, "With this appearance I look as if I'm from Saturn!" We nodded in agreement.
A girl, with her long blonde hair tied in a braid and wore a knee-length yellow dress on typed on a familiar computer. Mercury's computer. "Ami," I concluded. The girl looked up. "I could barely recognize you! I think you're from Venus."
Another girl, with her blonde hair in a ponytail and an orange dress that cover her knees, scoffed and rolled her green eyes. Rei. "Of course," she said, "leave it to Odango not to recognize us. We transformed right in front of you."
"Speaking of Odango," said girl with blue hair that reached her knees. When she stepped towards me, her long blue dress swayed in the snow. She yanked out the hair pens that kept my hair in its pigtails. She winked, "You know what they say, more than reach the sky!"
I sighed. "That's, 'more than meets the eye,' Mina-chan."
The last girl, Mako-chan, rolled her violet eyes and pulled her mid-back length, black hair out of her eyes. She reached into sub-space pocket and pulled out two ponytail holders. She tossed one to me. "Hopefully it won't break."
I nodded. With crossed fingers, I pulled my hair into a ponytail. I let out a sigh of relief. "Thanks, Mako-chan."
"No problem. Now we'll get you guys some clothes. Stay out of sight."
Mamo-chan and I nodded. Thanks to the sun, we wouldn't be cold even with the snow surrounding us. It still was a miracle the snow didn't melt. Mercury and their accomplishment with controlling their weather… Mamo-chan and I watched senshi and Serenity turn and leave.
There! All done! I worked hard so leave me lots of reviews! I need all the inspiration I can get! Thanks! Chapter four is coming soon! Remember! RRTAB: Read, review, and tell a buddy! Reading is more fun when you do it together (especially if your friend can do the voices).
