Chapter 1. Opportunities and decisions

A woman stepped in the room. It was silent, too silent. She knew something was wrong, their plan didn't work. She saw her queen near the steps kneeling. When she got closer she saw what the queen was doing and she couldn't believe her eyes. Before the queen laid a beautiful young woman who had a wound in her stomach.

"My queen, what happened?" Sailor Pluto asked

"I… couldn't stop her…I tried…,but she didn't listen to me." Queen Serenity answered , her voice shaking from crying.

Flashback

The queen was in her room when someone knocked on the door.

"Come in."

The door opened and Luna stepped in. She was the princess's mentor and a very good friend to the queen.

" Serenity. Princess Setsuna sent a message that you are need to meet with her as soon as possible."

"I understand. I suppose the evil is getting closer and she has some new information for me. I will leave as soon as possible."

"Do you think that the danger is bigger with this new evil than with the ones we fought before?" Luna asked the queen.

"I wish I knew my friend, I wish I knew. Please take care of the princess while I'm gone." Serenity requested.

"Of course."

With that the two women left the room. Luna went to find the princess for her lessons and the queen went to the throne room from where she teleported to the Planet of Pluto.

On Pluto she appeared right in front of Princess Setsuna, who curtsied.

"I got your message. It seemed urgent. Is something wrong my dear Setsuna?" the queen asked.

"I told you a while back that the future wouldn't reveal it self to me, that it was changing." Setsuna started to explain "This morning when I tried I succeeded, but I was shocked by what I saw."

"What did you see?"

"The moon will be attacked and we can't do anything to stop it." Setsuna said looking at the queen.

"There must be something that we can. There always are more than one probable future." Serenity exclaimed

"I saw three possibilities but each one started with the Moon being attacked. Only the outcome was different and I'm sorry to say but you died in two of them." She said looking away from the queen to hide her tears.

"I'm sorry to hear that, but I always knew that I wont live forever." Serenity said calmly "I'm not afraid of dying."

She smiled at Setsuna, she wanted to give the princess time to calm down but did they have enough time?

"Tell me what you saw."

"In the first future I saw the Moon Kingdom is attacked, for some reason the princess leaves the safety of the castle and is attacked. The inner senshi try to save her, but they are all killed." Here she took a pause and looked out the window "We, the outer senshi arrive to late, we fight to protect you, but in the we fall too. And then you…" She was interrupted by Serenity.

"No. It's impossible. You know that. In the moment of her birth your mother was the one who told me that she is the princess from the legend, that she is the one who one day will rule the whole Galaxy. She can't die." Serenity said

"The future changes. You know that. I love the princess very much but that is what I saw."

"And what did I do when the nine of you died?" The queen asked

"You used the silver crystal to destroy the enemy. You survived and you saved our Solar System, but everybody else died."

"I don't want this future." She said "Surely I can do something else if you saw more then one future."

" The next one started out as the first one, but when you used the crystal you wished for everyone that died on the moon to be reborn on Earth in the future. You will only seal away the evil. Everyone will live on Earth, but you will die. The princess will become a senshi herself at a very young age and will fight the evil."

"No! My daughter can't become a senshi, she is the future queen of the galaxy. She can't go and put herself in danger."

"I think you forget that the senshi who are protecting her are also princesses of their respective planets" Setsuna said and held up her hands for the queen to let her finish "Your daughter isn't happy. She feels that she doesn't belong in there group because when they train to fight she learns how to speak and bow properly. The four senshi have different interests than the princess and it's normal. She can't fight with them, she can't travel with them, she can't train with them. She wants to be part of their life, their rituals, she wishes for them to see her as their sister not as a princess who they need to protect."

"But I know that they love her deeply and they are not her friends because I told them to be. I would never do something like that."

"I know that, but the princess is young and naïve, you know that better than I. She has a gentle heart, and because of that heart she can't stand that the ones she loves are hurt while she just stands there and does nothing."

"So what do you say? That she dies or becomes a senshi?" Serenity asked not liking one bit what she was told so far.

"Yes. The third future starts the same but before she dies, both of you make a wish on the crystal. They will be transported to the future, actually we all will be. Your physical body will be destroyed but your soul will become immortal and you will join King Sol, your husband in the eternal gardens of the Gods. From there you will have the possibility to watch over Serenity and help her when she will need you the most." Setsuna finished.

"I watched as you were talking, and I noticed that you talked with more confidence about the third future. Can you tell me more details about it? What do I have to do?"

" The only thing we can do is wait at the moment. I don't know when the attack will take place. Just remember if the princess doesn't leave the safety of the castle than the future will change again. I saw the most probable outcomes only. If you make sure that the princess is safe than nothing of what I just told you will happen." Setsuna finished

"So the plan is to make sure the princess doesn't leave the castle?" The queen asked and Setsuna nodded.

"If the princess is wounded and the third future becomes true than we can make some arrangements for the well being of your daughter and friends. But I can tell you the details only when the time comes."

"I understand" Serenity told her "Thank you for telling me this. I have to return now to the Moon. Good bye, dear Setsuna" with that said the queen disappeared leaving a very lonely princess behind.

End of flash back

Sailor Pluto kneeled down next to the queen and looked down to the princess "Why did you leave the palace?"

"Because I saw that Mercury was badly injured, Saturn was on the other side of the kingdom fighting and I am the only one who can heal beside her." She watched as Pluto nodded her head.

"Is this the time?" she heard her mother ask, and saw that Pluto nodded again.

All of a sudden Pluto was on her feet

"You must hurry, I can't hold her up for long." She said as she walked out, and by the sound of it she was fighting Queen Beryl herself.

The Queen summoned the silver crystal, took her daughters hands in hers letting the crystal float above their cupped hands.

"You must make a wish on the crystal, honey" Queen Serenity told her daughter "you must tell the crystal your deepest and most important wish."

The princess just nodded her head.

" I love you my daughter."

"I love you too mother."

Mother and daughter looked at each other with teary eyes, nodded once than closed their eyes.

" Silver Crystal, you know what my deepest wish is, it comes not only from my heart but from my whole being: I want to protect the ones who are dear to me, the innocents that suffer. I want to be an equal to my friends, I wish for a peaceful life, for the opportunity for them to know me, the real me, not the princess."

In the same time the queen was praying for the survival of everyone present there.

Beryl stepped in the room just as mother and daughter cried out

" Moon Crystal Power!"

The whole room was engulfed by a brilliant white light, and all that could be heard were the screams from Beryl and her minions. After a few minutes there wasn't anything but silence.

From the Earth it looked like the moon has exploded, the beautiful white light traveled threw the Solar System cleansing it from the evil that moments before was winning the fight.

When the light diminished Queen Serenity found herself at the time gate.

"Is everything all right?" the queen asked fearing that something went wrong.

"Everything went fine. We just have to make the last arrangements: find parents for the senshi and the princess."

"You mean we have to tell them the whole story?"

"Yes. It is essential for the future that they know about everything." Pluto said smiling

"When do we leave?"

"Right now. I only have limited time to stay here."

"I understand. Are all the senshi going to be same age?"

"No, we will have the same age differences like on the Moon in the past."

With that last thought the two went to Earth in the future to visit ten couples who's lives are going to be changed for ever.
