"The time stream has shifted because of Jupiter. There can't be
a Crystal Tokyo on earth." "What?" Screeched Artemis and Luna at
the same time. Everyone looked at Setsuna surprised. "If there won't
be a Crystal Tokyo, then what will happen?" asked Serena. "The time
has come for the Silver Millenium to rise again. you must raise the
Silver Millenium and it's alliance. This is the time for retribution."
"But..But...the Moon has fallen, every planet has fallen. How the hell
do you expect her to raise a fallen kingdom?" asked a flabbergast Luna.
"Jupiter wasn't the only one that managed to shield it self from Metallia.
Only the Moon was completly destroyed. The other planets survived and
they've been waiting and preparing for the day of retribution."
"I'm a queen?" asked Amy with shock written on her face. "You're the
queen of Mercury, as the rest of you're to. Only Chuuku, Iko, Akane
and Shizuka aren't queens. Their planets was destroyed by Galaxia."
Hotaru had been sitting quietly with Locke, but now she rose.
"This is the time for retribution, but also for us to accept our
birthrights. We must leave now and prepare for the battle."
Amy smiled weakly, Rei and Haruka cracked their knuckles.
The animamates looked at eachother, knowing that they'd do
everything to protect their new princess and this realm.
Michiru and Setsuna shook their heads when they saw
Rei and Haruka cracked their knuckles. Minako
and Eric were discussing something quietly. Chad caressed
Reis back in an attempt to distract her. Ken and Lita just
sat there. Now Kagato rose and stood before Serena.
"Princess, you must claim your birthright.
The time has come!" "I'll do it. For my mother
and our people," Serena paused, "Umm...exactly how do I
do that?" Kagato slumped on the floor in chock as sweatdrops
appeared on the others heads. "You have to rebuild the moon
kingdom and the others must take controll of their planets."
said Mangetsu. "What?" screeched Haruka. "Calm down, it's as
it was to be. We will rule our planets as we should have done
back in The Silver Millenium." said Michiru. "But..But how will
we get to the planets and how will we rebuild the moon kingdom?"
asked Amy. "I can take you to your planets." said Lita. "As for
rebuilding the moon kingdom, Serena will have to use the crystal."
said Mangetsu. "She can do that?" asked Luna. "She can,
didn't you know?" "No, Queen Serenity never told me."
Mangetsu and Luna turned towards Artemis looking at him.
"What? Me? Queen Serenity didn't tell me either."
"Strange, Queen Serenity told me that she was going to tell you."
"Aren't we getting away from the topic now?" asked Michiru.
"We are. So, when should we start rebuilding the moon and take
controll?" asked Serena. "How about tomorrow. The Inners will
need to tell their parents." said Setsuna. "Agreed. Meeting here
tomorrow at noon. Tell your parents everything." said Serena looking
very much like Serenity. The senshis nodded and left with their counterparts.
Rei and Chad was the last in the room. They looked at each other both
knowing what the other thought. How was grandpa going to take this.
His only daughter and her lover from another life had to take controll
of a planet and rule it. Not to mention the fact that they were going
to fight a woman from the other life that killed them. He wasn't going to
take it good. Rei sighed and rose. She walked to the door and called :
"Grandpa, get over here now!" "What is it now Rei? Don't tell me you've
hit Chad to much with that broom." "Sit down, I need to tell you something."
Grandpa sat down and noticed that Rei sat down beside Chad. "It's a long story,
but the end is that I and Chad have to go." "Go? Go where?" "To Mars."
"Rei have you hit your head? You can't go to Mars, it's impossiible.
Mars is a dead planet." "It's not. Grandpa. Both I and Chand lived there
in our past lives. I was, no am the princess of Mars. Chad was my bodyguard
and fiancée." "What? You a princess. That can't be. Now stop it Rei! You won't
leave this house!" "It is Grandpa. And my pople needs me now. Our kingdom
was supposedly destroyed a thousand years ago, when Queen Beryl and Metallia
attacked. But only the Moon kingdom, the seat of power was destroyed. My
people survived and they've been waiting for the day when I'd rise again
to claim my throne. They need me!" "This is just to much, You can't be
the Princess of Mars. You can't!" "Grandpa, if I can prove it to you will
you accept it?" "If you could prove it, I don't think I'd have another choice
but to accept it." "Good, just relax. This won't hurt much if you relax."
"What do you mean won't hurt much if I relax?" Grandpa couldn't finish the meaning
before he was cut of. Rei had grabbed his hand and held it between her own.
Grandpa was confused, one moment he was sitting in his living room
with his granddaughter and his apprentice. The next he was on a red dusty
planet. Nothing could be seen, then his granddaughter appeared. "This is
how you may think Mars looks like," Rei laughed, "It's no where near the truth.
This is how it looked like during the Silver Millenium." Rei waved her hand and
the landscape changed. Cities appeared, the sky turned into a red and
blue mixture, Rivers started flowing and most surprisingly was the people
that walked around. Animals that he had never seen before surronded him.
"Let's go for a walk." said Rei. Rei led him towards a big city. "This was
the capital of Mars in the Silver Millenium. It was here I was born.
First Daughter Rei of High King Ares and Queen Rishika," again Rei paused,
"Come, the palace not far from here." Grandpa looked around him, seeing
adults gesturing while not talking. Children playing with small balls
that looked like fire and teenagers enjoying the sun shining at them.
They arrived at the palace. The guards stood there on watch,
prepared for fight. They didn't notice the pair. "Rei, how come..."
Rei smiled at her Grandpa before she interrupted him. "We're moving around
my memory, this is the past as I remember it. Come, we don't have much time
now. The ball will beginn any moment now." It was then he noticed that it
was darker now, much darker he mused as Rei led him through a door. The room
they enetered was a huge ball room, filled with people. "Just watch and
follow me when I go out later." ordered Rei. Grandpa nodded, just then the
herald at the top of the staircase called for order. "The First Daughter Rei
of High King Ares and Queen Rishika and her escort, Gaurdian knight of Mars
and the First Daughter, Yuichirru." It was Rei that walked down the stair case.
Only she held her self with more dignity and grace. By her side was Chad,
though he was much more musculus and had some scars, there was no doubt that
he was Chad. The two mingled for a while, then Yuichirru motioned for Rei
to follow him. They went outside on the balcony, Rei and her Grandpa followed.
"Rei-chan, I've been gaurding you for a while. At first I thought that you were
just a spoiled brat." First Daughter Rei was about to say something when Yuichirru
put his finger on her lips. "Hear me out on this my love." Rei Nodded. "But then I
noticed that you weren't like that. You were a beutiful, head strong warrior.
Prepared to do anything for your people. For that I admire you. But most of all,
I love you. Rei-chan, Will you marry me?" asked Yuichirru as he went down on
one knee. "Oh my god Yuichirru. Of course I'll marry you!" exclaimed Rei as
Yuichirru put a ring on her finger. "I love you Rei-chan. I'd rather die then
see you hurt." "I love you to." The two kissed passionatley. "We should tell
your parents Rei-chan." "We should." said Rei smiling at him. Just as they got
inside, a messenger ran through the doors. "My king, the Moon kingdom has been
attacked! Queen Beryl has attacked the moon!" shouted the messenger before
collapsing from bloodloss. You could see the place where he had been pierced
with a sword. High King Ares rose from his chair. "Every battle ready man
will report immedeatley to the docks. Prepare for battle. First daughter
and Gaurdian, come here now!" They rushed to the high king prepared to hear
what he wanted. "You two will lead the troops. Fight to the last drop of
blood. Don't disgrace me." "We won't your highness. There's a thing you need
to know still." "Tell me later, go now. You must prepare for the fight."
There ended the trance. Grandpa looked at Rei. "Why did you stop there?"
"Not long after that, I saw Yuichirru get slaughtered and I my self was
killed. Before I was killed, I saw the outher senshis and and their
lovers get killed before I was killed. That's why I ended it there.
It's bad enough to know that it happened. I don't want you be burdened
with it." "Goddess, If I only knew that before." "But You didn't.
You see know why I have to go." "I see and I understand, but Rei.
You won't forget me? would you?" "I'd never forget you. No matter what
happens, I'll always remember you" said Rei as she hugged her grandpa.
