Chibi-usa looked up and saw her family—mama, papa and the senshi waiting at the top
of the hill for her. "Mama! Papa" she cried as she ran and threw herself into her
mother's awaiting arms.

Serenity smiled mistily as she scooped her daughter into her arms and hugged her tight.
Endymion and the senshi each took turns hugging Chibi-usa and exclaiming how she had
changed. The group, once finished with their reunion, turned and headed towards the
palace. Chibi-usa was amazed how revitalized Crystal Tokyo looked. It was very
different from the way she remembered it when she came back with the 20th century
senshi.

Chibi-usa glanced up at her parents who walking along each side of her. 'Yes' she
thought. 'I can see how they look like Usagi and Mamoru'

Once they reached the palace, Sailor Jupiter ushered them into the dining hall. "I'm sure
Chibi-usa is hungry after her trip through time." On cue, Chibi-usa's tummy rumbled
which caused everyone to laugh.

"Just like her mother, ne?" Sailor Mars quipped while poking Serenity in the ribs.

"I wouldn't have it any other way" responded Endymion at which the senshi either rolled
their eyes or sighed.

Everyone seated themselves around the main table in the dining hall that was loaded with
food prepared by Sailor Jupiter. "I had the cooks working on most of this earlier after
Pluto told us that Chibi-usa was returning home today. I just supervised."

Serenity smiled. "Jupiter, I've never known you to just supervise in the kitchen. I'm
sure you've had more of hand in preparing the meal than you are admitting."

"Who cares? Let's eat!" piped up Venus.

After several minutes of sharing stories with Chibi-usa of what happened in Crystal
Tokyo after the defeat of Wiseman and reminiscing about the past, Chibi-usa spoke up.

"Mama, Papa?"

"Yes, Small Lady?" inquired Serenity.

Chibi-usa looked at her plate and blushed. "When I was in the past, I read a story about
Selenity and Endymion. It was about the moon goddess falling in love with a shepherd
and she put him to sleep so she could be with him for eternity. Was that story about you
and Papa? Why is it so different?"

Serenity just looked at her husband helplessly. "Help me" she mouthed to him.

Endymion glanced around and seeing no help from the senshi, "Well, Small Lady, it's
like this…"
