" Is what color a Lunar Cat is significant? " Tsunade asks.
" It can be, because they're actually Mauans, they have human forms as well, in their human forms they can have unique powers, green normally represents something to do with manipulation of the ground we walk on or plants. " Hotaru explains.
" Yes, you see, Lunarians discovered long ago that if our advisors were cats then we would be underestimated at the negotiation table. " Serena says.
" So normally Mauans give up their human forms though they still have the capability to become human if the situation calls for it. " Seiya adds to this.
" Is there anything else I need to know about? " Tsunade asks.
Taiki sighs, " Actually, there is, we may have a friend coming after us, her name is Galaxia and she wears golden armor. At least when transformed. "
" Her civilian name is Kyliska. " Serena offers.
Hotaru blinks, " How do you know that, Serena? I wasn't aware that you even knew Sailor Galaxia during the Silver Millennium. "
" She is the half-sister to the true Terran Prince, they shared a mother. "
" Why didn't you… ? " Seiya asks Serena.
" I didn't remember, my mother and Darien didn't want me to and any time I came close to remembering something Sailor Pluto would lock up what I had recovered. " Serena replies to Seiya's unspoken query.
" I've never met this Queen Serenity and I'm starting to hate her. " Neji comments.
" She was furious when Naruto became a ninja. The two of them got into a blistering screaming match over it, but in the end Naruto won, as is evidenced by the fact that she separated us into different dimensions. " Serena says.
" Apparently she felt that she had to always get her way and if she didn't then she threw a temper tantrum like a toddler. " Tsunade says.
" Did she ever. " Hotaru says.
" Yeah, especially when I informed her that I would never marry Darien. I actually swore on the River Styx that I would either die, kill Darien or kill myself before I would ever marry him, and that holds true in every life, though someone else is allowed to kill Darien as well, say his half-brother, or Hotaru, Seiya, Yaten, Taiki, or Kyliska, I'm not greedy, I just want the bastard done with no hope for him to ever come back, ever again. " Serena says.
" What does swearing on the River Styx mean? " Neji asks.
" Seeing as how we could have all been considered gods or goddesses by swearing on the River Styx, it is a vow that can't be broken without facing dire consequences. " Hotaru says.
Neji stares at them, " So, you must really hate Darien. "
" Hate him, all he ever wanted was to bed me. " Serena scoffs.
Hotaru snickers, " I remember that one time when Naruto transformed into you, the look on Darien's face when Naruto ended the jutsu. "
" That must explain Naruto's Sexy Jutsu. It kinda looks like Serena does when transformed, only with blonde hair. " Neji says.
" You see, here I have my true appearance back, black hair back in a braid, green eyes, I have my athletic abilities back, I have my intelligence back, and most importantly I have my personality back. I no longer blindly love Darien, I know how to use the Twin Katanas again, by the way, is it possible to get some of those made, I want them light but durable. "
Tsunade smiles, " Tenten's father can take care of that. If you can draw them… "
Serena grabs paper and pen, starting to sketch immediately, writing down specifications for her weapons as well as what type of metal, engravings, type of wood for the hilts and sheaths. By the time she was done Neji was staring, " I think Tenten's father is going to love you, Serena, you're going to challenge him and make him a lot of money. "
" I'm happy to pay for these weapons, my others were destroyed back on the Moon, so I would like to have them back, and I can get him the metals necessary, I just need to get through to Mau and they'll send the materials that you can't find here through. " Serena says.
Hotaru grins, " Man, I am so glad to have my hime back. I've missed you, my friend. "
" I've missed you too, my friend. I am so glad to finally be able to be myself again. " Serena says.
" You see, back during the Silver Millennium we were best friends and her mother didn't like this fact. She didn't want her daughter hanging out with Death and yet I am the only one to remain loyal to my hime. I will lay down my life for her. "
" As I will for you, Hotaru. A true leader must always be willing to do what they ask their people to do. " Serena says.
" Very well said, Serena. " Tsunade says.
" I was actually the Queen of the Moon before it fell. My mother killed my prince before my very eyes and I took the throne from her. I undid a lot of the crap she had done. I was starting to turn everything around when Beryl and Darien attacked. We all fought valiantly, but it was for naught. I was right out there on the front lines fighting with my people. " Serena says.
" Yes, and the hime fought very well, but anyone could see that her heart just wasn't in the fight, she fought for her people, but she had lost her reason to live. She never gave in, but when all her people were dead around her she signaled to me and used the crystal to have us all reborn, the planetary queens adding in with that. The Queen of Venus ensuring that Serena would meet up with her true prince once again. " Hotaru continues.
" So, he's not in this dimension? " Tsunade asks.
" No, he was a Kairu Warrior, he and Naruto got along well enough, but he was not a ninja. I'll have to see if I can find him through his own planet's power, before he died he passed to me the right to rule. Which is why Terra's people fought with me, and against Darien and Beryl's army. They evacuated from Earth and we made a final stand on the Moon. " Serena states.
" So, you were the Queen of the Earth and the Moon before it all fell apart on you? " Neji asks.
" Yes, I was, and Darien was pissed about that. Pissed that his half-brother had given the right to rule to me and had set conditions upon it that he knew Darien could never meet, such as earning my love and trust heart and soul. " Serena says.
" I always did like Prince Ky, he treated me decently, sparred with us both, and he and Naruto got along. Naruto actually is the one that fought Darien then and killed him, then he unleashed the power of the Nine Tails and decimated a lot of our opposition. " Hotaru says.
" He destroyed all seven shadows, Beryl and Metalia's strongest warriors, took down Darien and mortally wounded Metalia, unfortunately I had to seal her and all of our enemies along with my people into my crystal, which broke into the seven rainbow crystals to separate the shadows. I was revealed to be the Princess when I mistakenly thought I loved Darien and the Crystal reacted to my pain. " Serena says.
" That must have been some spell that was placed upon you, to make you think that you loved him. " Tsunade says.
