"Chibi-Usa? What are you doing here?" "Huh? Muffin? Don't you
remember? It's our anniversery today." "What anniversery?" asked
a now very confused Darien. "Our wedding anniversery, we've been married
for a year now, silly you. Have you forgotten our anniversery?"
"I'm not married to you!" "You are muffin, look" said Chibi-Usa pointing
towards his left ring finger. Darien looked down and sure enogh,
there was a simple gold wedding band.

"Look Chibi-Usa, I can't be married to you." "And why not? We've been
happy for a year now." "I don't love you. I Love my Usako." Chibi-Usa
giggled, "But I am your Usako." "No you're not. This must be an alternate
universe." "What are you talking about? You must get dressed, soon they'll
come." "I mean that there's probably one Darien that loves you like that,
but he isn't me. I love my Serena, not you." "Who's Serena? Have you been
cheating on me?" "I haven't cheated on you, come here. Let's talk and
I'll explain or at least try to." "Okay, but you have to hurry."

"This may seem strange, but I'm from an alternate universe. In wich I'm Tuxedo
Kamen and Serena is Sailor Moon. It all started 1000 years ago on the moon.
She was the supreme princess Serenity of the Silver alliance. Back then,
the people of earth and the moon weren't allied. We respected the power
each of us had, but that was it. Against all odds and rules, I met Princess
Serenity and fell in love. We loved each other much. We were going to
annonuce our engagement on her 18th birthday, the day when she'd recive her
full power. But something happened, Queen Beryl of the Negaverse and her minions
attacked. Serenity never recived her birthright and we never got married.
Beryl wanted me, but I didn't want her. She thought that if she killed
Serenity then, I'd go to her. She sent an attack towards Serenity,
I ran and pulled her down. She was saved but I died. I died there in her
arms, the last I uttered was her name. She didn't want to live without me,
so she killed her self. Her mother saved us all,
by reincarnating us in the 20th century. We were so happy." said Darien
with a tear in his eye.

"Wow, what a story. But if you were that happy there with her, why are you here than?"
"Beryl came back and we had to fight. We beated beryl, but Serenity died. Again
we were all reborn. I was divided in two since I wanted to protect Seremity
so much. I was both Darien and Moonlight knight for awhile. Again there was
an attack, this time it was two aliens. Ail and Ann. In the end we helped them
realize what love was and what it could do to you. They left and we were happy,
for a while." "What happened now?" Darien chockled, "I was on a date with Usako.
We were in a park, rowing on the river. We was about to kiss when a young version
of you dropped in right on her head, making me kiss you. Then hell was brought
upon earth. Another enemy was discovered. The Black Moon family from the future,
They wanted you. " "Me? Why me?" "In my relaity, you were my daughter with Serenity.
You had been sent to our time to get help from the Senshis.
We fought the Black Moon Family and won. Everyting was quiet for a while."
Darien paused and sighed.

"Then it all began again. It's like a bad circle, the search for the talismans and
the messiahs. There's three different talismans. A sword, a mirror and an orb,
each wielded by a senshi. An other senshi to be precisley. Two of them,
that didn't realize that they had two of the talismans, were searching for the
Messiah of light. They didn't think that the Inners could be trusted with
that information, so they did their solo job. Your heart crystal were taken
and eaten by the dark Messaiah. It's a bit Ironic, Sailor Saturn,
one of the few who actually might stand a chance against Sailor Moon, were the
dark messiah. Her own father made hertransform to Mistress Nine with your crystal.
You were good friends there, very good friends. She was considered to be a freak since
she could heal others. But she wasn't healthy. She was always weak and tired.
You met when...."

"When my hat flew of and she ran to catch it." "That's right, do you remember?"
"I...I remember it. She got so tired after that. Then those bullies came.
I remember it all. She was, no is Sailor Saturn. It was she who saved me again
after my heart crystal were taken. You lent me of your life force." "You do
remember. I did lend you of my life force." "Hotaru died when she fought the daimons."
"She did, but she was reborn. Michiru and Haruka took care of her after they realized
that Sailor Moon was the Messiah."

"But it didn't end there, right?" "No. Zircornia and the dead moon circus appeared.
They were after Pegasus." "It was then Diana came to me and the senshis got their
super form." "And Pegasus revived the Amazon trio, teking them back to Elysion."
"The Amazon qaurtet replaced the trio. Strange that those who once fought me,
later gaurded me." "The Dead Moon cricus was destroyed and Neherina was sealed away.
That was the latest enemy, we had some peace...." "But they're back." "I need the
Golden crystal to fight. This's one of the tests that I must complete to get the
crystal. But I don't know what I'm supposed to do here." "I think I know" whispered
Chibi-Usa. "How do you know? What do I have to do? "There's a Serena in this universe,
my sister." "What does she have to do with this?" Chibi-Usa took his hand a led him
towards a picture. "Is that your Usako?" There sitting on a bench was his Usako,
Kissing another man. "Who's that guy?" "That's Seiya Kou, her fiancé. I think you're
meant to stop their wedding. You see Serena always fought with you, but she liked you.
She even went to a bording school, so that she could be more graceful and smart.
But when she returned, you'd married me. She cried every night I was there,
crying for not having you there when she needed you. She never had any Tuxedo Kamen to
protect her." "God, what have I've done here?" "It's not you that's been doing this,
it's your alter ego. Talk to her tonight, she'll be here then without Seiya." Chibi-Usa
frowned. "I never did like that man."



Darien stood on the balcony, searching for his Usako. There, finaly she was.
She stood there looking innocent, watching the moon. He went up to her.
Carefully, not wanting to scare her. He placed his hand on her shoulder,
starteling her. "Oh I'm sorry, am I in your way?" asked Serena. "No, not at all.
Serena, may I have a word with you?" "Why?" "I need to speak with you." "Ok. Speak then."
"In private?" "Alright where?" He put his arms around her waist and leaped.
"Ok, On the roof then."

"The thing is, I'm not your Darien..." Darien was cut of by Serena, "What do you
mean 'my' Darien?" "The Darien that married your sister.." Again he was cut of.
"But you are him, you're the man that married my sister" said Serena bitterly
and turned around walking away. Darien swore silently and started towards her.
He put his arm around her shoulder as he caugh up with her. "Serena, please.
Listen to me." Serena jerked her self free, "Why should I listen to you?
I waited for you for ages, I went to a bordary school to become more gracefull
and smart. Then I find you married to my sister." "Just listen to me Serena.
I'm not from this universe. In my universe, I'm dating you. I've been dating
you since you were 15. I've protected you since you were 14 and
I've loved you for over 1000 years." "1000 years, you don't mean..." Serena
trailed of. "I mean it, I know about you being Sailor Moon. In my reality we've
fought our enemies and we've died for each other and the world."
"What are you talking about?"

Darien sighed. "It all began a 1000 years ago in my universe....."
He told her everything, the love they'd shared, the enemies they'd fought.
When he told her about the second trial he'd been through, tears flowed
freely from his eyes. He couldn't see anything because of the tears.
He stiffened when he felt arms around him. "I remember, I remember it all."
whispered Serena. Darien tilted her head upwards and kissed her.
Once again the blinding light enveloped him. In a flash, he was gone.
Leaving a crying Serena on the roof. Then in a flash, that world to was gone...


He didn't know what was up and what was down. He only knew that he had to get
the crystal. It seemed like ages had passed when he finaly reached the bottom.
The light died down, but there in a distance. A light flickered. He got up
from the floor and started moving towards the light. He walked and walked,
determind to get to the light. He didn't care for him self, only his Usako was safe.
Then he'd be happy. When he finaly got to the light, he was surprised.
A mirror image of himself stood there and a regal lady sat on a chair.
The woman had exactly the same eyes as him. "Son, we've been waiting for you."
"Who are you?" "Can't you see?" asked the woman. "No, you can't be...
It couldn't be true." "And why not? We nagged on Gaia untill she agreed."
"You can't be my parents, they're dead. I can't even remember them."
"Would it feel better if you remembered us?" "How do I know it's not
some kind of a joke?" "Search your heart" said the woman and stood on her toes
and kissed his forehead.

Vivid Images flowed through his head, images with the man and the woman,
buying ice cream for him, playing with him, putting him to sleep.
The list was endless. Emotions, memories, everything was comming back,
Overwhelming him. It felt like someone was driving a ruck over his head
repedatley. The pain became intense, untill he finaly passed out from the pain.
He layed there motionless on the floor, unconcius. The pair sat there and waited.
Hours later he awoke, finding him self in a bed. Two adults sitting beside it.
"You're awake now. Do you remember us now? asked the man. "Yes...Yes..I remember
you, father, mother" said Darien as he sat up. "We're so proud of you.
You managed to find the princess at last." "You knew even before I did?"
"Gaia payed us a little visit before you were born. We were meant to tell you
when you were 18." said Damon. "But we didn't, we couldn't." said Terra.
"It's time for you to go now. Gaia were pleased with your results."
Damon placed his hand on his wifes and then both of theirs on Dariens heart.
"You didn't have to find it, you just had to prove your worth. The crystal was
inside you" said Damon as they started to fade. "Always remember,
that we're proud of you" said Terra. The voices were barley whipsers now.
Soon they'd vanished completley. Darien felt something in his hand.
It was a golden glowing crystal, that pulsed in tact with his heart beat.

Suddenley, a golden flash enveloped him. He floated up in the air,
about six foot up and twirled. Rose petals came from no where and enveloped him.
Another flash, this time dark green, and he fell down on to the floor.
"Rise Earth Knight. It's time for you to take your place among the knights."
He rose slowly and examined him self. He had his usual armour,
but now it was gold and black. His big broadsword hung on his hip.
Instead of a top hat, he had a gold veil that you could see through.
The veil was draped around his face, showing only his eyes.
He bowed low to Gaia. "Thank you Gaia," he paused, "For everything."
"Go, go now. They need you at the park, she needs you" said Gaia
and opened a gate.

He jumped through the gate, but he didn't fall nor did he pass out.
He was running in a corridor, hearing battle cries from the end.
He was almost there when he heard it. "No....Moon watch out!"
