 <AN: Well, I was inspired for this story by "I don't know what's going to 

 happen, so i have to do what i can, right now." And this came out. Sorry sad 

 ending >.< Very very sorry, don't read if you don't like sad endings!!!>

 

 

 "Onegai,Temu-chan!" The small girl of 15 was on her knees in front of 

 another girl 16 years of age, her hands drawn together in begging. The one 

 standing had long black raven hair which reached her lower back, a horrified 

 efpression on her face as she grabbed the other girl's wrist and pulled her 

 to her feet, running around the corner into a quiet alleyway and out of 

 prying eyes. She sighed and the slightly shorter girl with shoulder length 

 pink hair. Her raven haired girl shook her head and looked out into the 

 crowded street.

 "Iie! Definatly not, no way no how! You know what Mama Taru and Mama Usagi 

 said!" The younger girl pouted and put a hand behind her head.

 "You're no fun, Temu-chan." Temura laughed and poked the pink haired girl's 

 nose gently

 "Well I wouldn't be a spoil sport either if you didn't suggest such 

 ridiculous things." She let go the smaller girls wrist and sighed slightly, 

 catching sight of her watch and swearing violently.

 "Kuso! We're late, come on!" They sprinted from the alley, barely missing a 

 passer by as they did so, running out into the street and shouting a hurried 

 appology over their shoulders.

 

 Within ten or so minutes they were standing outside Hino Shrine, panting 

 heavily and walking in. As they entered they took of their purple and pink 

 coats, hanging them on the rack and moving down the hall to their usual 

 room. As soon as they stepped in the door the older senshi looked up.

 "You're late" Serenity stated, and Rei laughed

 "You're one to talk! You only just got here yourself" Serenity pouted and 

 laughed, putting a hand behind her head

 "Eheh... Gomen Rei-chan." Usagi rolled her eyes at her mother, who was now 

 coming up 80, yet her figure had hardly become old, just matured to be more 

 feminine, her eyes now holding a wiser glow. On Serenity's right side sat 

 Mamouru, and on her left was Usagi. Beside Usagi was Hotaru, both now gone 

 30, yet still looking 20 or so. Temura took her place beside Hotaru, and 

 Skaie took her place beside Temura. Next to her was Ami, then Makoto, then 

 Rei, Minako, Haruka, Michiru, Setsuna and back to Mamouru. Serenity stood 

 from the circle and bowed a greeting.

 "So, now we're all present, we can begin. Usagi, Hotaru, if you will?" They 

 both nodded and rose as Serenity sat down. The two younger girls got onto 

 one knee as their respective parents stood before them. Hotaru held out a 

 henshin stick in both hands, holding it out for Skaie to take. It had a pink 

 handle and a pink sphere on the top, inside was the symbol of Saturn 

 standing out against a cresent moon. Usagi did likewise to Temura, her being 

 exactly the same as Skaie's but with a purple sphere. The two reached out 

 and placed their right hand on top of the sticks, bowing their heads.

 "With these you are entrusted the power of a sailor senshi, and are bound by 

 duty to protect this earth from all wrongdoers. Do you accept this mission?" 

 Hotaru and Usagi spoke together.

 "We accept this mission" echoed the two younger girls in unison. The two 

 girls took the wands in their right hand and held it to their chests, 

 waiting. The senshi stood and the two moved to the centre of the circle, the 

 others moving to fill the gap. The senshi all transformed, Serenity and 

 Mamouru transforming into the king and queen of future Crystal Tokyo. Hotaru 

 and Usagi transformed, expecting to become their princess forms now their 

 positions had been filled, but instead they found themselves in their usual 

 sailor fuku's. The others also seemed slightly surprised and watched the two 

 girls in the centre for their change. The two opened their eyes and raised 

 their heads, chanting together.

 "Saturn star power!" Sailor Moon and Sailor Saturn exchanged a glance, they 

 were supposed to use different transormation phrases. One was supposed to be 

 of the moon. They all continued to watch as their transformations revealed 

 themselves. The two were standing in sailor fuku's like the the others. Her 

 gloves were short, only covering her wrists, and a rim of purple followed 

 the white. Temura's skirt was purple and she wore purple knee high boots 

 with no fastenings, a rim of white at the top. Her bow was lilac and a star 

 shape covered the centre of it. The body of the fuku was white like the 

 other's and her hair was pulled back into a high ponytail held by a purple 

 ribbon. Her tiara had a purple cresent moon on it and her earrings were 

 plain purple studs, her chocker also plain and purple. As she came out of 

 her transformation she called her speech.

 "In the name of the power of silence, Sailor Saturn!" Again Saturn and Moon 

 exchanged looks, two sailor Saturns? They continued to watch as Skaie came 

 out of her transformation. A plain white fuku as the others, with a deep 

 pink skirt and boots reaching her thighs, fastened at the front with laces. 

 Her bow was baby pink and a circle covered the centre, her glowes reaches 

 aboce her elbows and had a pink rim, studs from her ears holding a chain 

 which lead to a cuff on the top of her ear and her choker plain pink, her 

 hair loose and ehr tiara with a pink cresent moon on it. She too spoke her 

 speech as she completed the transformation.

 "In the name of the power of death and rebirth, Sailor Moon!" There was a 

 stunned silence. As if the first transformation hadn't stunned them enough, 

 there were two. Two Sailor Moons. Two Sailor Saturns. And the two younger 

 ones used the same power phrase to come out with different transformations, 

 yet despite their given name they each had only a portion of the power of 

 Sailor Saturn. One silence, one death and rebirth. Saturn and Moon once more 

 exchanged glances, but no one spoke. In the end it was Ami who spoke up.

 "Welcome to the team, Sailor Saturn, Sailor Moon." They all rushed in to hug 

 the new recruits except Mamouru, Saturn and Pluto.

 "This is a bad omen." Pluto stated quietly so the others wouldnt overhear, 

 and the two nodded their agreement.

 "Why would this happen, is it because two soldiers came together of 

 unnatural means?" Mamouru shook his head to Saturn.

 "Regardless of means used or senshi by senshi, it shouldn't happen that 

 there be more than one senshi of a planet. Usagi and Serenity are the only 

 exception to the rule, but they aren't both Sailor Moon any longer. When 

 they did coinside, it was Chibi-moon and Moon anyway. So what does the omen 

 mean?" They both looked to Pluto and she frowned, shrugging slightly.

 "I'm afriad I have no clue. I'll go and research into it right away." The 

 two nodded and covered for her as she stepped back into a black hole.

 "Where's Pluto going guys?" Serenity called over and Mamoru answered.

 "She just went to get supplies, love, that's all." Serenity seemed fine the 

 with the answer and went back to yacking happily with the others, but Uranus 

 and Neptune didn't accept it and moved over to the two.

 "What is it?" Uranus asked, and Saturn shrugged.

 "We just don't know. It should be immpossible to have more than one senshi 

 for a single planet. These transformations propose a bad omen which not even 

 Pluto forsaw, so she's gone to research. In the meantime we can only wait 

 and see what else presents itself to us.

 Neptune and Uranus nodded, joining hands and exchanging a heartfelt glance 

 before sitting down in front of the table and sighing. Sailor Moon moved 

 over to Saturn and hugged her tightly, kissing her softly on the lips. 

 Saturn returned the kiss and smiled warmly.

 "Usa-chan. Do you realise what has happened here today?" Sailor moon nodded 

 and shrugged, shockingly like Saturn had done.

 "I'm well aware that there is meant to be only the one senshi yes, but 

 regardless of what the rules were, they wouldn't have been broken for no 

 reason, so stop worrying and be happy. Now lets start the food!" Sailor Moon 

 drooled over the table full of cooking and Saturn laughed as they all took 

 their place around the table, leaving a space for Pluto's return.

 After an hour or so of scoffing food, chatting and laughing, Pluto returned 

 through the now familiar black hole, and took her seat at the table. The 

 remaining outer scouts and Mamoru looked up to her, and with a quick nod it 

 was obvious there was something that had to be said. But it would have to 

 wait, and they all continued as if nothing was wrong until the end of the 

 party. As they were all standing to tidy up Pluto caught Rei's arm and 

 pulled her outside the door, hushing her to quiet as she moved to object.

 "Rei, this is important, I need a fire-reading." Rei blinked and rolled her 

 eyes.

 "Can't it wait, Pluto? And why are you outers still in your Fuku's? And 

 Mamouru for that matter. Go tell them to change." Rei moved to walk back 

 into the room, but Pluto grabbed her elbow tightly and Rei looked up to her 

 to see urgency in her eyes. She stood for a while before nodding and sliding 

 open the door. "Fine, after we've tidyed up and everyone's gone home." Pluto 

 nodded and as they walked back in Saturn caught her eye, and she nodded.

 After yet another hour or so the room was finally cleared, and people began 

 to filter out. Saturn caught Usagi outside and kissed her neck softly from 

 behind, wrapping her arms around ehr waist.

 "Ne, Usa-chan, Can you take the girls home tonight? I want to hang around 

 with Setsuna-mama, Michiru-mama and Haruka-papa a while." Usagi nodded and 

 kissed her gently, smiling as she walked away, calling the girls to follow 

 her. Saturn smiled to their backs and turned back into the Shrine. Minako 

 and Rei were kissing softly behind the door and Saturn smiled before moving 

 past. Minako and Rei broke apart and Rei waved as Minako left the shrine. 

 Serenity took Mamouru's hand and smiled.

 "You're staying right?" Mamouru nodded slightly and they too kissed before 

 Serenity left, pausing only to wait for Makoto and Ami to catch up to her. 

 Rei shut the door softly behind them and sighed.

 "Would you guys at least come out of your fuku's? It makes me nervous. They 

 all nodded and in seconds were returned to their usual selves, and followed 

 Rei into the fire chamber, Setsuna at the front, then Mamoru, Hotaru, Haruka 

 and Michiru. Rei sat down in front of the fire and glanced behind her at the 

 others before rolling her eyes and beginning to chant quietly. After half an 

 hour they were all still silent, not one of them having moved. They all had 

 their heads bowed in silent contemplation of their situation when Rei 

 screamed out and was thrown backwards into Setsuna, who caught her and held 

 her tightly.

 "Rei-chan? Hold yourself together! Rei-chan!" The others ran forward as 

 Rei's wide eyes closed, uttering a single word.

 "Abunai..." Setsuna yelled over her shoulder to whoever was closest to the 

 door.

 "Someone call Ami here now!"

 

 "We don't know, there was silence, then she screamed and fell back, said 

 "Abunai" and left..." Hotaru was explaining and Ami nodded slightly, taking 

 Rei's pulse and sighing to find it average.

 "This is a good sign. She appears to be healthy, maybe she just pushed 

 herself too hard."

 "Or maybe she was looking at something she wasn't supposed to see." Setsuna 

 suggested, Hotaru agreed, nodding slightly.

 "But how do we find out what it was?" Setsuna shrugged and they all sighed 

 together, Mamouru standing up.

 "We should call a meeting. Let the other girls know." They all nodded and 

 within a few minutes, and with courtesy of the communicators, all the senshi 

 were gathered at the Shrine. Temura and Skaie had come too, and were looking 

 low in spirit as they took their place at the table, two empty chairs where 

 Rei and Minako should be sitting. Mina was leaning over Rei and tending to 

 her, putting a damp cloth on her forehead.

 "What can do Minna?" Serenity came out it and none of them had an answer.

 "All we know it there's a reason to be careful, aside from that what else is 

 there to know? It's impossible to tell from one word." Usagi was off on a 

 tangent and everyone was beginning to tone her out when Hotaru spoke over 

 her.

 "Temura, Skaie, please follow me?" The two nodded and Hotaru took Usagi's 

 hand, leading her to the fire chamber. The others followed behind the four. 

 As they entered the fire was burning as always, and as Hotaru and Usagi 

 stepped forward it remained calm, but as they each held their hands out to 

 the two girls and they stepped forward, it spat and spewed sparks over the 

 floor by their feet. The two younger girls stepped back and it quieted once 

 more. Hotaru turned to the others, taking Usagi's hand once more.

 "You two seem an anomalie." They both looked at each other and Hotaru 

 proceeded to shrug, she knew no more or less than that. They didn't belong.

 Suddenly the fire whipped up and hit the ceiling before reducing to be 

 normal size, though spiralling around dangerously as if a whirl pool of 

 flame. The two younger girls stepped further back but Usagi and Hotaru 

 stayed where they were.

 "Out the way minna!" Minako called and the other parted from the door. Rei 

 was leaning on Minako's shoulders, Mina supporting her weight steadily as 

 they stepped forward.

 "Out!" Rei shouted to the two younger girls, then to the rest. "Get out!" 

 They all stood silent for a second before a heavy wind blew from no where, 

 spiralling the flames out of control. They lashed at the walls and ceiling, 

 yet the shrine didn't seem to burn at all. The senshi braced themselves 

 against the wind and flames, closing their eyes. The flames whipped through 

 them all, not touching one before rearing together above them and heading 

 straight down for Hotaru and Usagi. Hotaru had her eyes open and saw it 

 coming, diving forward and grabbing Usagi around the waist, rolling out of 

 hrams way. She looked up to see the flames begginning again, and transformed 

 in an instant, feeling Usagi do the same beneath her. With a flick of her 

 wrist the silence glaive appeared just in time, allowing her to part the 

 flames away to keep them safe. Saturn grimaced slightly, her hands smoking 

 painfully. She took a few deep breaths and stood, grabbing Sailor Moon's 

 hand and running from the building, out into the courtyard. Skaie and Temura 

 followed them, transforming as they went. This time Sailor Saturn had a 

 small purple wand in her hand, a plain purple handle with the frame of a 

 heart, no centre at all. Sailor Moon also had a weapon, but instead of a 

 wand she held a staff like Sailor Saturn's Silence Glaive, only with a full 

 circle blade with the centre missing.

 "We've distorted the flow of time!" Saturn shouted over the noise of the 

 increasing wind. The others had also transformed and were runing out into 

 the courtyard.

 "What the hell are we fighting?" Sailor Jupiter hollared, but no one had an 

 answer. The wind began to blow stonger and Saturn and Moon joined hands, 

 looking over to their daughters. If only this had never happened. Suddenly a 

 crack appeared in the earth between Saturn and Moon and Sailor Moon slipped 

 down, Saturn grabbing her wrist tightly.

 "Clutz!" Sailor Moon heard Saturn joke over the roar of the wind and laughed 

 slightly, but felt Saturn's grip weaken and looked up worriedly. Saturn's 

 expression was one of pain, and Sailor Moon realised the burns over her 

 gloved hands.

 "Gomen ne Saturn!" Saturn shook her head and yanked hard on her arm, pulling 

 Sailor Moon to safety. They sat together for a second to regain their breath 

 as the fire broke out of the shrine, whirring through the halls and doors in 

 a long spiral to head towards Saturn and Moon. They both jumped to their 

 feet and Saturn began to spin her glaive, but Sailor Moon stopped her, 

 grabbing her wrists. "If you do that. You'll destroy your hands!" Saturn 

 shrugged her off and began again.

 "I see no alternative!" Suddenly there was a cry from across the clearing.

 "Death star!" A purple flash of light illuminated the clearing as Sailor 

 Saturn fired off her attack, the end of her staff disattatching to become a 

 ball of purple light, which smashed into the fire spiral and dissipated it. 

 As the attack hit the top of the staff returned to its rightful place. They 

 all watched Sailor Saturn surprised and then fell to their knees as the 

 ground began to shake beneath them.

 "I figured it out!" Pluto shouted across the yard. "The disruption of the 

 balance of nature! Too many sailors! It's unbalanced! We're fighting nature! 

 The elements!" A look of realisation lingered over the senshi and Saturn and 

 Moon shared a serious look before Saturn opened up a portal, taking Moon's 

 hand and jumping into it, sealing it behind them. As soon as they left the 

 air became still and the ground ceased shaking, everything becoming eerily 

 quiet. Silence reigned over the senshi also, as they watched the two younger 

 girls get their feet. It dawned on them that they had to go and find the two 

 women, and immediatly they all jumped into action. They must have gone 

 somewhere.

 

 "Hotaru-chan?" Hotaru looked to the young women sitting beside her on the 

 top of a hill that overlooked the moon's ruins.

 "Hai, Usagi-chan?" Usagi wrapped her arms around Hotaru's waist and burryed 

 her head in her shirt.

 "I'm scared..." Hotaru hushed her softly and rubbed her hair with her hand.

 "It's ok, Usagi-chan. I'll never leave your side. SO you never have anything 

 to fear." Hotaru held Usagi closer as she cried, tears falling down her own 

 cheeks as well. "Are you ready?" Usagi nodded gently and closed her eyes as 

 Hotaru summoned her Glaive, pulling Usagi into a hug with one hand and 

 kissing her gently. Usagi took her hand in her own and their fingers 

 entwined as Hotaru positioned the glaive behind Usagi's heart, pushing it 

 through hard, piercing through them both and then pulling out, dropping it 

 and gripping Usagi tightly. They fell side by side in silence, and shared a 

 deep kiss as their eyes closed, passing into the flow of death and rebirth 

 once again.

 

 Uranus and Neptune appeared at the bottom of the hill and sprinted to the 

 top. Michiru gasped loudly and Uranus grabbed her shoulders, pulling her 

 close so she could no longer see. Although they were surrounded by blood, 

 Uranus found it peaceful to be there. The sun was slowly rising and their 

 hands were entwined lovingly. A look of calm and love over their faces, 

 their foreheads touching.

 "Michi, lets go home." Michiru shook her head and moved as if to grab 

 Hotaru, tears streaming down her cheeks, but Haruka grabbed her arm tightly 

 and Michiru looked up to her to see tears falling.

 "They did this so their children can live. And look, they're at peace. 

 Together." Michiru nodded slightly, it was true. Their expressions were 

 peaceful. They linked hands and walked back into a time hole, wiping away 

 their tears. Now was the hard part, telling everyone.

 

 Tears were shed, but not one was sad. They left in peace to love each other 

 forever. So they would remain together. No one could find in their hearts to 

 be sad.
