Two events had changed the course of which the timeline of Earth had been following. One happened 500 years ago when a half demon and human girl destroyed the Jewel of the Four Souls. The other was just five years ago when a eighteen year old girl fought and stopped the being known as Chaos. Both events was unknown to humans but both changed the world.
With the Jewel of the Four Souls gone demons now existed in the present day and with Chaos gone the demons made their presents known.
But these change would effect the girl who stopped Chaos more then anyone.

It was another day where Serenity felt lonely, her friends were gone still away fulfilling their dreams. But with them gone she had buckled done and paid more attention to her studies becoming a A+ student. Yes there were still the days when she ran late either from the fact she was from the moon and therefore a creature of the night. Or from the occasional youma attacks, but lately demons have been coming after her, more then youmas.
Her morning classes were done and afternoon were canceled f and wouldn't be back in session until after the Christmas holiday, she walked past the decorated stores glancing at this and that. This time of year always made Serenity feel lonelier, she had no one but Luna and Artemis to celebrate with. Her Earth parents and brother were gone having been caught up in the fight with Chaos. Mamoru was gone off in the states fulfilling his dreams of becoming a Doctor, Serenity hadn't heard a word from him since the night before he left when he told her he was going, not wanting to be tied down with what destiny had in store for him.
With the Senshi gone it fell to Serenity to fight the Demon's and Youma alone. Lucky for her she had achieved her ultimate form as Sailor Cosmos during her fight in the Galaxy Caldron with Chaos, that was why Serenity didn't put up a fight when they decided to leave. And who was she to tell them no, at least they told her months in advance so she could prepare herself for their leaving, unlike Mamoru who told her the night before.
"Sorry Serenity but I am leaving, I always wanted to be a Doctor and I can't do that if I am stuck in this destiny." Those were the last words he had spoken to her before jumping in a cab and leaving her there to cry on the side walk.
Since Mamoru been gone Serenity hadn't heard a word from him, the girls would text, send a email, call, or write her to see how she was doing. Serenity never told them of the fighting she had been doung not wanting them to worry about if their princess was in trouble. But she still longed for a friend someone to spend time with.
Sighing Serenity went into Crown for a much needed cup of hot cocoa. She wound her way through the excited crowds of shoppers and children. She paused outside of Crown and gazed up at the sky wondering if they would get snow it had gotten colder since this morning.
Pushing open the glass doors she smiled at Motoki and waved. Crown was busy today with both middle, high, and even some college students all enjoying their time off after all the studying they had to do for their midterms. Before she had even reached the counter Andrew had already poured cocoa into a tall mug and was finishing it up with whip cream and grated chocolate.
"Thanks," she said and dug into her purse to pull out some cash.
"Don't worry about it Sere it's on the house, you look like you could use it." Andrew had taken the role of a big brother towards her, with Mamrou and the girls leaving he took to looking out for her, even with knowing of her powers.
Serenity nodded her thanks and took her cocoa to a the corner booth where her friends and Serenity would hang. She took out her demonic politics book opening it to study. She wanted to get ahead with the next term's studies so she knew what she had to look forward too, and be prepared.
Serenity was unsure of what the future would hold for her now, she was unsure if she would still become Neo Queen Serenity. After all she had already turned twenty two the age that she would be when she became queen and Chibiusa. So as a precaution she had so far taken every class that had anything to do with politics. This year and next year her classes would be on demon politics, this first term was on the dog demons and their history. Five years ago Inu the current leader at the time stepped down and turned leadership over to his oldest son Sesshomaru.
With Sesshomaru at the helm he was able to open up better communication with humans forging a stronger bond and understanding. There were still many groups of humans who despised demons and formed anti demon groups there were talk of wanting separation. As far as Serenity could see the demons were not so different from humans, even with the occasional demon attacks against her. She had meant a few demons and even half demons in her classes and study groups. While most of their conversations has been about their studies and she hadn't gotten to know many personally they seemed decent.
Serenity tried to study but every time she started to concentrate a loud commotion coming from the game room would interrupt her. She assumed it must just be some kids having a good time and celebrating.
Motoki placed a basket of fries and a coke in front of her. "You know it still disturbs me to see you study so hard and taking your classes seriously. You are not the same girl I meant all those years ago."
"Yeah well, back then I more carefree back then and didn't know who I really was. Even after that and seeing the future I thought I would always have the girls and Mamoru to help me through things. But the fight with Chaos really did a number on them and I couldn't let them stay here and wonder what else was out there for them."
"Have you heard from any of them?" Motoki asked and slid into the booth across from her.
"The girls wrote me telling me what they were up too. Ami has only a few more months with her interning and she will be a full fledge doctor. She said she been offered a position in the hospital in Germany and is going to take it. Raye is going to be spending the Christmas holiday with her father and new stepmother. I think she is going to hit him up for some money to promote her club she is wanting to open. Makoto is working with that new up and coming famous baker in Sweden and says they are swamped with the holidays. And Minako her music is becoming very popular and due to sign on for a tour with a big promotor." She hadn't heard much from the outer Senshi besides Setuna, she too was busy with her dress making and actually got contracted to make a dress for one of the royal families.
"Sounds like they are busy, and fulfilling their dreams." Motoki was a little worried Serenity acted like she was happy and probably was, but he knew she was lonely and was hoping the Senshi were going to come home even for a few days it would have been enough for her. "Reika is coming home from her dig in Egypt would you like to come over for Christmas dinner?"
Serenity smiled and thought for moment about accepting his offer but she knew Motoki and Erika needed their time alone. "Its ok, Artemis is planning a small meal. I offered to help and the look of horror he gave me told me he would rather I didn't. You know the one time I cooked him and Luna dinner, you would think I poisoned them or got them sick."
"Ummm, Sere you did get them sick remember they were throwing up for days."
Serenity put her head down and muttered, " Damn talking cats."
Once again a roar came from the game center, Serenity's head came up and she closed her book she knew she wasn't going to be able to study with all that commotion. "What is going on in there?"
Motoki smirked at her. "Oh nothing just a half demon is about to brake the high score on the racing game. So far he has beaten every challenger and now is going for the high score."
"What!?" Serenity shouted standing up and grabbing Motoki's shirt in her fists. "I hold the top score do you have any idea how long it took me to get that."
"You know your behavior is most unbecoming of a princess or a queen." Motoki was goading her more, he was happy to see that Serenity was showing a part of her old self.
"Bah," was Serenity's answer. She made her way to the gaming room thinking the whole time that she would show that demon no one messes with Cosmos whether it was a video game or a fight.
It was easy enough to find where the half demon was a small group had formed around him all excited to see her record go down the drain.
Behind the wheel of the video game sat a silver haired man with dog ears, she suddenly was filled with the urge to stroke those ears. The demon looked to be no more older then she, but she knew not to be deceived. Considering when she meant Chibiusa for the first time she passed as six years old but in retrospect she had actually been 900 years old.
The half demon growled when his game ended having not reached the high score as of yet. He sat back with a scowl and crossed his arms "Damn almost. So do I have a challenger or do I need to continue to try and beat SSUT's score?"
The half demon was way to cocky for Serenity's tastes, she decided to put him in his place. "I except your challenge."
The crowd parted showing InuYasha a girl with long silver hair done up in two buns, skin as pale as the moon, and silver eyes ringed with a bright a blue. He sniffed the air but with so many people around he couldn't make out what was her sent. "What makes you think you can take me on, wench?" She was rather pretty, the determination in her eyes was appealing and one he liked in a woman.
Serenity ignored his derogatory remark, instead she gave him a small knowing smile. "Because I am SSUT."
InuYasha was sure the girl was lying and just wanted to get close to him like most of the girls here. Many times he had when he came to Crown their was always a group of girls trying to catch his eye. "Alright of you want to play then sit."
Serenity sat at the other controller and popped four coins in.
After a few seconds of playing InuYasha figured out the girl was not lying about who she was. This close he was able to study her better and pick up a little of her scent but not much, it was a bit off. She was really pretty and he thought with her coloring could possibly be part if not whole demon.
With his distraction Serenity easily won not only the race but sat a new recorded. She jumped up whooping at her win and new score. The only person who had ever beaten her was Haruka, but did that really count since Haruka was in fact a professional race car driver.
InuYasha sat back and crossed his arms frowning as the crowd gave the strange girl a high five. "Big deal, you won. I could have beaten you if I wanted to, but I decided to go easy on you being a girl and all."
"Don't pout I have been playing this since I was fourteen," Serenity giggled. "I am Serenity."
"InuYasha and I wasn't pouting," He snorted. This girl really intrigued him not just for her looks but the fact she seemed to be kind hearted the aura around her was one of purity.
"Well InuYasha do you want a burger and fries its on me?" Serenity wanted someone to sit with her and just talk.
InuYasha wasn't one to let a meal pass him, especially when it was on another. "Yeah sure why not." He followed her back to the booth that she had been sitting at. Her book was still out, and InuYasha picked it up studing it. "Why are you studing demon politics, you some government worker?"
Serenity wasn't sure what to say no one, let alone a demon, had asked her why she had taken the class. Those few who knew who she really was knew it was because of what she saw when they traveled to the future. And those in her class either thought see was half demon of unknown origin or just a curious human who dyed her hair and wore contacts.
"I was just curious about demons is all and wanted to know the difference between the way humans and demons governed their people," Serenity finally answered. It wasn't a lie it was part true she knew some demons could smell a lie.
"So then your not a demon?" InuYasha was even more interested and curious about this girl. She sure wasn't human with her looks and but her scent said she was but there was something else there a scent he didn't recognize. It had almost smelled pure.
"No I am not a demon." She left it at that and and luckily Motoki showed up with their food so Serenity didn't have to answer anymore questions.
I spruced this chapter up I hope you like it I will be going through the other chapters and fixing things.
