Flashbacks/Dreams
Namimori:
The next day at school Takeshi notices that Tsuna isn't there, and he had a very good idea that Tsuna wouldn't be for quite some time. The Incident had happened after Usagi had broken the first time, so Tsuna had done a lot more of the work to help put Usagi back together again. He writes down the assignments for Tsuna since they were in the same class after all. It was thanks to Tsuna and Usagi that he actually applied himself enough academically to not have to worry about being taken off of the team. Tsuna didn't join any teams, but was on the reserve lists. The male silverette sees the Rain Latent that Reborn had identified writing down the assignments for Tsuna. They were connected by Usagi-san, not really friends, but when it came to Usagi they would come together. From what he had heard from Reborn before the Arcobaleno disappeared Tsuna and Takeshi were acquaintances.
Hayato would laugh his ass off when he learned what had happened to the Sun Arcobaleno because of Usagi's Lightning. Hayasa would join him in that, as it wasn't often someone made Reborn suffer. Neither Takeshi nor Hayato are surprised to see Kyouya walk into their classroom with the changing of each class, and informing the Idiot Herbivore Teachers that Tsuna would be out of school for the foreseeable future.
At the Sawada home Usagi is wrapped up in Tsuna's flames while Ranko trains Tsuna's ability to dodge by using Nerf balls, that way if he got hit it wouldn't hurt him. Reborn would make it hurt, Ranko was not about to allow that, and Reborn, even if he were there couldn't say anything, because Ranma/Ranko did happen to be a Master of their style, and could most probably kick Reborn's ass. Since Tsuna and Usagi were her/his students in the fighting arts Reborn couldn't say anything, especially since Ranko/Ranma did happen to be Usagi's Lightning Guardian. That, and the fact that pissing the aquatransexual off was not a good idea. The Nerima Wrecking Crew could tell anyone that pissing the Saotome heir off was not something one did lightly.
Genma and Soun had learned the hard way that while Ranma/Ranko did have an extraordinary well of patience once that patience snapped the results were not pretty. Kasumi was the only one in Nerima that had never pissed Ranma off, out of sight of the others she would care for his wounds, give him a shoulder to cry on when necessary. Needless to say the Hibari family would offer her sanctuary as well since she would be able to patch their Heir up when he bit off more than he could chew, which hadn't happened yet, but even Kyouya wasn't arrogant enough to realize there weren't stronger carnivores out there that could kick his ass.
Usagi wanders out to join them when she wakes up, eating an egg sandwich Nana made for her, and a cup of Rain Infused Green Tea as well, " Tsuna-chan, I may have an idea for a Lightning for you. Ti ricordi le quattro sorelle, giusto(You remember the Four Sisters, right)? "
Tsuna blinks as he looks at her, his Intuition allowing him to continue to dodge safely, he needed to be able to dodge, and hold conversations anyhow, " Petz, that would make sense, can you arrange a meet? "
" I can, Ranko can play with Bel while my Rain and Cloud go with us. "
Tsuna snorts in agreement with that, and it would also give Usagi the opportunity to track down her reincarnated Misty Sun. " Who's Bel? " Ranko asks.
" Varia Storm Officer. " the couple says in unison.
Tsuna blinks when his cell phone starts ringing, and he answers in Romanian, negotiating with Mammon/Viper on what they could do to deal with Usagi's so called family. They had no problem charging their fees to Iemitsu's accounts, Tsuna only wanted proof that they had acted. Mammon/Viper could understand that since they were doing this because a Sky had nearly shattered because of her Pathetic family. Thankfully Usagi didn't have the bullying problem Tsuna had to suffer from before he forcefully broke the seal on his Flames. Usagi was the kind of person that you didn't want to disappoint, hence why she rarely had to deal with bullies, the entirety of Crossroads Junior High came down on anyone that messed with her with the intensity of an EF-5 tornado.
Namimori Middle would experience an influx of students when they realized Usagi had transferred, and several others would study their asses off to get into the High School in Namimori. They would even learn the Demon Prefect's rules, and abide by them as well. Kyouya would not be happy about it, but at the same time he had learned that the students of Crossroads Junior High were Omnivores, they grew claws and fangs when his little sister was threatened, or someone upset her to the point of tears. Osaka Naru was fiercely protective of her best friend, and was in the process of transferring. Usagi needed someone other than Tsuna in her life she could vent to, and she couldn't really talk about some topics with Tsuna, or Nana.
Kyouya allows her transfer immediately because he had seen her verbally bite people to death for messing with Usagi, she was another Verbal Carnivore.
Nerima, Kuno Manor:
Reborn is stunned to realize Kuno Kodachi is very similar to Bianchi, the Poison Scorpion, and he hopes to hell they never meet. They were a match made in Hell, and between the two of them he might not be able to escape. The only thing Kodachi didn't have was Poison Cooking. The rest, the girl made her own poisons, sedatives, and other drugs. If not for the fact she was too crazy even for Organized Crime she would have been snapped up ages ago. He had yet to figure out how to escape from her gymnastic ribbon that she had him wrapped up in either. What he didn't know was that the Kuno Family Retainer was recording everything, and would give it to Ranma. Ranma and Tsuna would then turn around, and sell it to his fellow Arcobaleno, and Dino. Reborn's trolling ways, and Spartan Tutoring was finally coming back to haunt him. He had forgotten that whatever goes around comes around, and his need to create chaos for shits and giggles was finally coming back around to bite him in the ass.
Skull and Dino both straighten in anticipation, as they were the ones that had been screwed over by Reborn the most. More blackmail was about to be delivered into their hands. The unholy gleeful manic light that fills their eyes has those around them honestly terrified. The Carcassa Family wisely stays away from Skull when they see that look while Dino's men move as far away from him as they can without him tripping over his own feet. They had landed at Tokyo International Airport when the feeling of really good blackmail against Reborn vibe struck the Cloud Arcobaleno, and the Chiavarone Decimo.
Namimori:
Usagi straightens as her well refined Chaos-and-Blackmail senses start tingling, " Ranko, do you still have contacts in Nerima? "
" Yeah, why? " Ranko asks her.
" I believe more Blackmail has been gathered on the Trolling Pain in the Ass known as Reborn. " Usagi says, and Tsuna sees the unholy light come into her eyes.
" No pranking anyone in Namimori unless they challenge you. " Tsuna states firmly.
Usagi cocks her head to the side, " What about Bel? "
Tsuna blanches, " Hell no! Why not work out how to prank my deadbeat sire? "
Usagi sits up even straighter, " Can I use Bel as a sounding board? "
" Nothing that traces back to me, or Mammon. " Tsuna says immediately.
Meiou Setsuna's Home:
The viridian haired, garnet eyed fashion designer hopeful hugs the pink haired nine hundred, and some odd year old child to herself, hopefully she would still be born, even if she would no longer be Mamoru's child. Haruka and Michiru had informed her as to what Cavaliere del Cielo had done to Tuxedo Kamen/Chiba Mamoru/Prince Endymion for daring to even attempt to force himself on the Hime. She was now reading the first of Sailor Moon's journals, and they were very enlightening for the Time Guardian. She had seen a lot over her thousand year lifespan before she died to knock some Kami Forsaken Sense into Chibiusa. To be fair her parents should have made more time for her, but Usagi, if what she was reading was right, had she not met Sawada Tsunayoshi, whom she knew damned well was Cavaliere del Cielo, she would have been broken beyond repair, and just been a mere puppet, a figurehead.
She had never questioned her queen, until now. Usagi should have been removed from her parents' custody years ago. She shouldn't have felt as though she had to literally move into Tsuna's home, someone that understood what it was like to be considered a failure, a waste of space, useless...yes, Tsuna and Usagi were far too similar in their histories, though it was only her fellow senshi, her family, and Luna that had done Usagi in. Usagi had never been given a choice as to whether or not she wanted to be Sailor Moon. Back during the Silver Millennium senshi were given a choice as to whether they wanted the duty or not.
Tsuna wasn't given a choice about being the next Vongola head either, yes, they were far too similar now that she was actually using her Common Sense. Chibiusa would be enrolled in the local elementary, and Setsuna just hoped she would still exist.
Juuban:
Luna was pissed off that the interloper known as Cavaliere del Cielo had amputated all of Kamen's limbs, snapped Sailor Venus's neck, and Sailor Uranus had the audacity to kill Sailor Jupiter. Really, the only way to bring that recalcitrant girl to heel was to ensure she knew whom was in control. Had they been allowed to punish the bitch properly she would be doing her duty, and back with her parents, where the bitch belonged. Her queen was not going to be happy with this turn of events. Princess Serenity had to marry Endymion, the only saving grace was that Cavaliere del Cielo had not gelded Tuxedo Kamen, but because of his injuries his identity was well known, as was what he, and the other senshi had tried to do to Sailor Moon, whom was very well loved by the people. She was the only one that made damned sure the civilians were out of the way, this included taking attacks that would kill a normal human to protect them as well.
Dark Moon Cosmetics:
Petz, Koan, Berthier, and Calaveras can all feel undiluted rage coursing through their veins when they read the headlines in several different media sources, " I never did like Neo-King Endymion. " Koan snaps.
" She saved us, gave us another chance, she's resurrected them as well, and this is how they repay her. She's better off with Cavaliere del Cielo. " Berthier remarks, her light blue hair still in its trademark braid, with another braid acting as a circlet around her forehead. Her hair was such a light blue it could be mistaken for white.
" From what I'm reading Mercury just went along with it to save herself from being attacked along with Moon. " Calaveras states, her light brown hair is pulled back into a bun, and she has a golden hair ribbon tied around the bun in the shape of a bow.
" I find it hilarious that the Outer Court is more reliable than the Inner Court ever was. We could tell her the name of Saturn's civilian identity. Besides, getting that damned Mistress Nine dealt with will make us all feel better. " Petz remarks casually, her hair is dark green that is wrapped in an updo, and a bun, her dark green eyes almost look like lightning is crackling in them.
Her only regret was that Saphir had to be sacrificed to bring to light Wise Man, or rather Doom Phantom's Machinations. Diamond had been such an idiot to believe all those pretty little lies. Needless to say when she receives a text from Moon she agrees to the meet immediately, letting her sisters know that Moon wanted to talk.
Petz arrives at the meeting point, a random rooftop in Juuban to find Moon in her civilian form, and whom she guessed to be Cavaliere's civilian form as well, " Petz, I'm Sawada Tsunayoshi. "
Her eyes widen, and before she can reply she is briefly distracted by an explosion, " Ignore that, that's just my Lightning Guardian playing with the Varia Storm Officer. " Usagi says, while she may be out, and about, she was within reaching distance for Tsuna.
" Why does Vongola Decimo want to talk to me? " Petz asks.
" I need to get a Lightning before Reborn finds one for me, I have a Cloud, and Storm, plus a possible Rain Latent as well. " Tsuna admits.
Petz blinks, and then she grins wickedly, letting her Flames rise to the surface, she Harmonizes with Tsuna easily enough, " I think I'll go join in on the fun. If I remember correctly there will be Ring Battles, which means I need to be able to handle the Varia Lightning Officer. Sparring with Belphegor, and Ranko, currently should do wonders for my ability to handle Leviathan. "
" Let your sisters know first. " Usagi says.
Petz sends the same text to all of them, telling them she was now Vongola Decimo's Lightning Guardian. Then she joins in the playing for Bel and Ranko with delight, she needed to get herself up to Varia Quality levels, fast, " Oh, Tomoe Hotaru is your Misty Sun, and she's possessed by the second in command for this latest headache. " Petz calls over her shoulder.
Usagi blinks, and then her sapphire eyes harden, " I need to awaken Saturn the right way so she can get rid of that parasite. "
" We might as well do that now while Reborn is away. " Tsuna says.
Usagi has to snicker, Ranma had told her what he had done to Reborn, offering him up as a sacrificial lamb for Kuno Kodachi. She sincerely hoped he learned how to redirect all that Chaos that surrounded him directly onto the smug asshole known as Reborn. Reborn's reputation wouldn't take a hit because Ranma/Ranko could get the drop on him, but all the blackmail they were sure to acquire because of it would ruin his reputation if they did it right. " Moon Cosmic Power! "
Tsuna makes sure to be touching her, as he did not want to deal using his own henshin item. He picks Moon up once the transformations are finished, and they go looking for Tomoe Hotaru. Moon tracing her link to her Misty Sun, they find the girl leaning heavily against a wall, breathing hard. Moon drops to the ground, and approaches the girl gently, she needed to get her Misty Sun back, awakened, and safe. Moon lets her last life take over, and her senshi uniform switches over to Princess' Serenity's preferred gown, " Agatha filia reginae, Nauta Saturn, princeps audirent vocem tuam: et soror senior, revertetur ad me(Princess Agatha, Sailor Saturn, hear the voice of your princess, and older sister, return to me). "
The astronomical symbol for Saturn ignites in a vibrant violet upon Tomoe Hotaru's brow, and she henshins while at the same time Mistress Nine is kicked out of her reincarnation's body, the girl is pissed. " Watashi wa shi no shin'en kara no shisha desu. Dosei, iseki no wakusei, chinmoku no gādian, sērāsatān ni yotte hogo sa rete imasu(I am an emissary from the abyss of death. Protected by Saturn, the Planet of Ruin, Guardian of Silence, Sailor Saturn)! "
Saturn wastes no time in going after Mistress Nine, and Cavaliere sits on the top of the wall the civilian form of Saturn had been leaning on, pulling Princess Serenity onto his lap. Saturn's Flames were visible, as was her battle aura. She was not happy her new incarnation had been resurrected by having such a foul being placed inside her, " Itte, kegareta shinryaku-sha(Be gone, foul invader)! "
She channels her Sun Flames into her Glaive, Activation was such a useful ability, and hides this with her Mist Flames, it was time to destroy this pain in the ass known as Mistress Nine. She could feel herself harmonize properly with her Hime, her older sister, " Aneki, my new incarnation's father needs to be eliminated as well, he's too far gone to be saved, and is one of the Heart Snatchers. "
Princess Serenity groans even as Cavaliere curses in several languages, " My Storm is still Latent, dammit. "
" I don't have a primary Storm since Pluto is secondary, need one version of her guarding the time Gates at all times. " Princess Serenity says, " Neptune, Uranus, we need to have a conference, now! "
Her Rain and Cloud Guardians teleport to her a minute later, " Serenity-hime, what's the problem? "
" The father of Saturn's civilian identity is one of our enemies, and too far gone to be saved. Mistress Nine is Saturn's fight since my darling sister's reincarnation was resurrected with that foul being. " Princess Serenity states.
" Fuck. " Uranus says, summing everything up succinctly.
" Exactly, we'll need to take the bastard out, but my Storm is Latent, and I don't have a Sun yet. "
" Well, perhaps my fellow royal would be willing to help out? " Princess Serenity muses out loud.
Cavaliere del Cielo blinks before smirking, " Call him, and ask, mio bella principessa. "
" What fellow royal? " Neptune asks.
" The Ripper Prince, Varia Storm Officer, Belphegor, he respects Usagi-chan because she treats him like a fellow royal. "
Princess Serenity pulls out her cell phone, and dials Bel, " Come ti piacerebbe occuparmi di un cestino per me perché non ho ancora una tempesta(How would you like to deal with some Trash for me as I do not have a Storm yet)? "
* Che tipo di cestino(What kind of Trash)?*
" Posseduto da un nemico nemico da un diverso tipo di Trash(Possessed by enemy alien from a different star system kind of Trash). " Princess Serenity deadpans, " Sembra anche il padre dell'identità civile di Sun Misty(Also happens to be my Misty Sun's civilian identity's father). "
*Il principe è incuriosito, qual è il suo nome(The Prince is intrigued, what's his name)?*
Saturn, what's your father's name? Princess Serenity asks her reincarnated baby half-sister.
Tomoe Souichi, is Saturn's response, Mistress Nine was a more competent fighter than Saturn had thought, and was dodging every swing of her glaive, which Saturn knew how to use, mastered using actually.
" Tomoe Souichi. "
*Pensa che sia fatto, principessa Serenità(Consider it done, Princess Serenity).* Belphegor says, he was the only Varia Officer that knew the truth, and only him. He understood State Secrets after all.
" Charge Iemitsu. "
She smiles as she hears him cackle, even as she can hear her Lightning, and Tsuna's both cursing him, and each other out. * Will do. Want proof of death?*
" It would be preferred, yes. " Princess Serenity remarks. He gives an assenting noise, and the call is disconnected, " He's agreed to do it, and is charging your Idiot Sire, Cavaliere. "
That causes her other half to outright cackle, " Good, bastard deserves it. Saturn, cross body block, now. "
The newly awakened senshi blinks even as she does so, " Thanks, Cavaliere. "
" The full title is Cavaliere del Cielo, translated it means Sky Knight. "
Uranus, and Neptune leap up to sit on the wall as well, and they cheer Saturn on while snacking on the popcorn their Sky supplies, sure it was store bought, made in bulk, but it was still popcorn. Media personnel had to sign forms that they understood the danger they were placing themselves in, Sailor Moon had been adamant about that, so did the cops, and other onlookers as well if they stayed around to watch in person. As Moon had put it to the authority figures she was not going to be made to pay for Stupid people. The Police Chief had laughed his ass off when Moon had told him that in a bland tone, but agreed, and told her he would ensure the forms were filled out. Every member of the police department in the Minato Ward, and the surrounding wards were forced to fill the forms out, just in case.
Finally Saturn's glaive connects, and she pumps her Sun Flames into the bitch that had invaded her body. Mistress Nine keels over dead before she hits the ground, and the spar between Lightnings and Storm arrives where they were, " Hey, Bel, care to do some clean up for my Misty Sun? " Princess Serenity calls out.
The psychotic prince cackles, ignites his Flames, turns a backflip, and lands on Mistress Nine, dissolving her into nothing, " Grazie, Bel. " Princess Serenity says.
" Sei benvenuto, principessa Serenità(You're welcome, Princess Serenity). " Belphegor says before moving on, his knives acting like a sharp, pointy, whirling dervish of death.
Petz had taken to electrifying his knives, causing him to retract them quickly, and Ranko took advantage to get in up close, and personal. The Lightnings had decided to tag team him, since he was such a pain in the ass to beat. Bel knew better than to let Ranko fall into the Soul of Ice, and then draw him into a spiral to unleash the Heaven Dragon Blast on him. After this though he would seriously have to look into unarmed combat. Saotome was not one to take lightly, and not even Levi had been able to electrify his knives as often as Petz could. Petz was Quality, apparently, and was just shaking the rust off.
" Oh, Bel, have them get your target's daughter into the custody of Cub's mother, charge the Idiot. " Princess Serenity says offhandedly.
" Shishishi...will do. " Bel says, Cub and Principessa were so very interesting.
Uranus and Neptune both look at their princess, " He's the one you asked to deal with Saturn's father? "
Saturn observes the way the Varia Storm Officer is moving, " At least with him what you see is what you get. "
Uranus and Neptune both have a foreboding shiver go down their spines when they see the look of interest in Saturn's eyes, " A psychotic assassin and the Senshi of Death, Ruination, Silence, and Rebirth. "
Bel pauses when he hears this comment, " She's Quality, I could do worse. "
Princess Serenity groans, " If you wish to court her in her civilian identity then you must be on your best behavior, she is my reincarnated younger half-sister, and nothing past second base until she's sixteen. Plus, no alcohol until she can legally have it here in Japan. "
Belphegor pouts, but concedes that the principessa has a point, " She is also the Princess of Saturn, so you will treat her with the proper respect, or I will geld you. " Princess Serenity says, her smile all teeth.
For the first time in a long time Belphegor actually felt fear, Princess Serenity was truly his equal, and she cared about her people. She had not been afraid to get her hands dirty, it had been her mother that kept her from being the Princess that was truly needed. Even Ranko and Petz freeze in their positions at feeling the amount of Killing Intent pouring from the petite blonde. Cavaliere smirks, that was the carnivore hidden beneath all the shit that had been heaped upon her in a new life. I can't stay out much longer, Cavaliere.
I figured, mio bella principessa, you can retreat now, your sister is safe, freed from her possession, and she's also your newly established Sun Guardian as well. I need to get a Sun before Reborn gets it into his head to find one for me.
I don't know of a Sun for you, unless you go with Ryohei.
Cavaliere shudders, Sasagawa Ryohei meant dealing with Kyoko, and while he didn't mind her, he wouldn't drag her into this stupidity either. He'd rather have guardians that knew the score. What about Petz's sisters?
Mist/Rain, Cloud/Storm, and Cloudy Sun.
Cavaliere frowns at these mixes, that would leave Calaveras out then, damn. He did not want to deal with a Cloudy Sun. Besides, Kyouya might see that as an invasion of territory. Princess Serenity reverts back to Sailor Moon, and cuddles into her Knight, " We're going to get going, train your asses off, but Saturn, you're the Healer, you know what that means. "
Saturn nods, " I do, I have to make damned sure I can't be taken out, while also ensuring I can keep their asses alive. "
Cavaliere ignites his Sky Flames, and flies them home, using Mist Resonance to hide their flight. While Cavaliere and Moon are heading for home Mizuno Ami has just left her first therapy session. She was disgusted with herself, today had been an evaluation to see what she truly needed help with. The blue haired genius had become even more withdrawn to the point her mother took her out of school, and had her attending online instead. This way her daughter wouldn't fall behind, and she wouldn't have to deal with how cruel her peers actually were. Saeko knew she had failed her daughter by not being there to do something about the bullying. To be honest she should have put her daughter into therapy years ago.
Flashback:
Queen Serenity IV of the Moon and Silver Millennium looks over her carefully crafted spell once more. It wouldn't do for her daughter's senshi to question her orders. She knew it wouldn't work on Saturn, spells were cast on the heirs and heiresses to keep them from being susceptible to these kinds of spells, but the rest of the senshi, including Pluto were not so protected. It just pissed her off that her dratted daughter had not only been born with the Lunar royal sigil, but the nine pointed star of Cosmos as well. This spell would override all of the protocols in place to keep the Guardian Senshi from overstepping their bounds. The only hitch would be Sailor Saturn, and her daughter as well. Princess Serenity V was far too perceptive for her own good.
She already avoided the Inner Court of Princesses like the plague, instead choosing to hang out with their brothers. When they weren't available she was holed up in the library that the Queen couldn't access, which should have been raising several red flags to the people.
On the other side of the Moon Princess Serenity looks at her cousin, Princess Selena. The navy blue eyed female frowns when her cousin lays out her suspicions about her own mother, " You will always have my loyalty, cousin. We both know that this will all come crashing down thanks to your mother, cast the spell to ensure I am reincarnated into the same era as you. Make sure I regain my memories, and I will find you when the time is right. We cannot let Aunt Serenity go unchecked any longer! "
" My mother should not even be on the throne, she cannot access the Royal Spell Library. Why that has not sent up several alarming red flags I do not understand. She will be the ruin of everything, and all she cares about is the acquisition of more power, prestige, and political might. I fear she will betroth me to Endymion XIII. "
Princess Selena curses at this, her navy eyes flashing, " I do not have a court of my own. If need be I will take over for you after we are reincarnated, because once your ascension is set into motion more and more powerful beings will come out of the woodworks. I possess the Onyx Crystal, I can handle them just as easily as you could. "
End Flashback:
Navy eyes flash as their owner sees the leading news story in all of Japan. HOW DARE THEY? Her poor cousin, Serenity did not deserve all the shit that damned female Mauan deliberately piled on top of her. It was time for the New Moon to don the night sky.
