章 64: Chapter 64: An Exchanging Of History!: A Building Of Trust!
Date: April 6, 1999
It was later that night, as I was asleep, whilst right beside Momoko keeping her company, that I once again found myself in the Void, about to get another visit from the disembodied voice, and an explanation.
"Oh good, this place again?" I said out loud.
"Oh come come now, is that the way to talk to someone who helped you save Sailor Moon from being very badly injured and possibly killed?" the disembodied voice said in response.
It was then a look of complete shock, realization, and also anger found its way onto my face.
"That was you, whatever happened to not telling me about my destiny?" I said as a tickmark found it's way onto one side of my face.
"I said I wouldn't tell you about your destiny, that doesn't mean I can't still show you little bits of it," the disembodied responded back with a good amount of sass.
It was at this point that I just sighed a big sigh and just resided myself to the fact that this was just something that had happened.
"Well, I guess you're right," I said. And it was at this point that the void around me got very bright, and then my dream ended.
It was when I had woken up from my dream and conversation in the void, that I looked around the room, looking at everyone of the other Love Angels, who were still asleep.
"Man, I really do have the best friends," I thought to myself as a small smile found its way onto my face.
And I then turned my attention to Momoko's sleeping form,
"Well sis, you and I may have been reunited only a few years ago, but I am glad that we were, because I couldn't ask for a better sister," I thought to myself as my eyes started to tear up.
It was then that I was snapped out of my thoughts by the ringing of the doorbell, which woke Luna up from her sleep, to which she then looked at the clock nearby.
"4:20am.. who would be up at this hour?" she thought. She quietly and gently got up and leaped off Scarlet and made her way to the door. She jumped a few times, wriggling the door handle 'till it opened and the person up so early didn't really surprise her, it was Mamoru.
"Luna, is-" Mamoru tried asking but was cut off.
"Shh, everyone is here," Luna replied, knowing what he was going to ask. "Come inside, but be quiet," she lead him inside, careful not to wake anyone but the closing of the front door caused Yousuke to look up tiredly.
"Oh Yousuke, I am very sorry," Luna apologized as she make her way to an open space near him.
"I was waking up anyway," Yousuke replied with a yawn and began stretching. "So, who's he?" he asked looking a the Earth Prince.
"Mamoru Chiba, I'm Usagi's boyfriend," he introduced himself, sitting near him, holding out his hand.
Yousuke returned the gesture and shook his hand. "Yousuke, Yousuke Fuuma." It was then Mamoru turned his attention to me and asked me who I was, telling me his name and holding out his hand, "Shinko, Shinko Hanasaki," I responded returning the gesture and shaking Mamoru's hand. "So this is the famed Tuxedo Mask...not to mention Prince Endymion...I should remind myself to maybe one day ask him about a couple things...perhaps about adopting some of his fighting skills...what...can I not be allowed to think of such things viewers?" I thought to myself, which was followed during this by me turning my eyesight to the left of me to address the viewers.
The sounds from the kitchen echoed through the house as Makoto made breakfast, with Setsuna and Yuri helping her.
"Mako, how do you cook so well?" Yuri asked, watching at the way Makoto moved through the kitchen.
"Well, I own a bakery," Makoto replied, not taking her eyes off of the mix in front of her. "It was my dream ever since I was little, I also own a flower shop."
"You know Hinagiku's family owns a flower shop as well," Yuri added, as she finished making the eggs.
"Well, if you girls need any tips just come and ask," Makoto said with a wink. She slowly put the mix in the pan, the mix suddenly sizzle/popping as it touched the hot pan.
"And Setsuna, what do you do?" Yuri asked, turning to the tan woman.
"Well, I'm a fashion designer and personal medic to Haruka," she replied as she finished making the bacon.
"Oh, so wha-" before Yuri could finish, Setsuna cut her short.
"Yuri, can you wait until everyone is ready to properly introduce themselves?" she said with a smile. "Then you may continue asking questions."
As they continued making breakfast, the others were in the living-room. Scarlet was explaining her point of view about the battle and the enemy.
"And strange thing is, is that Jama-P said that the aura felt that of an devil but Luna said they felt like youma," Scarlet finished her view-point, waiting for the groups response. It was Mamoru who answered first.
"Perhaps it's a new hybrid."
"Maybe," Yousuke agreed. "I mean, there's five hybrids in this home already."
A few chuckles were heard but stopped when they heard a pained groan. Yousuke looked behind him to see Momoko's eyes moving.
"Momoko!" her friends coming to her side.
"Sis, you still need to rest!" I said.
"Everyone?" she mumbled, trying to sit up but was stopped by Yousuke.
"Lay back down," he urged. "You developed a fever after your fight."
"Fight?... Kyah!" she shrieked. "The fight! Usagi, where's Usagi?!"
A chuckle sounded from one of the couches, it was Haruka. "You have only known our princess for a short time, but it seems that you and your sister have bonded with her quite quickly," she mused with a smirk.
"Well, that's true," I said in response. "She trusted both of us with her secret of being Sailor Moon, since she found out both of ours."
"So, Luna and Jama-P told us about this new enemy," Hotaru stated as she stood up from her position near Usagi. "And it was the act of you protecting her that she gained the injury she has now," Hotaru continued, referring to Momoko with her statement.
It was then that I realized that I had to set the record straight, since it was not Momoko who had saved Usagi from getting injured or killed, but in fact it was me. I knew that this would put a lot of attention on me when I said what I would wind up saying. Not to mention this would be followed by a lot of questions, but I knew that I had to say what I had to say. I was then that I took a breath and then decided to speak. "Actually, that was me, I was the one who protected Usagi," I said. And sure enough, all the eyes and attention of the senshi, except for Usagi's were directed to me at the moment I had said my statement.
The room fell silent, even Yuri and Makoto stopped their work. They could feel the tension rise as the information was sinking in. Everyone then glanced back to me to find my head down and the shadow of my hair covering my eyes. They then realized I was shaking and tears were beginning to trail down my cheeks.
"I tried my best!" I cried out. "And Usagi still got injured, I am so sorry!"
It was right before Hotaru was going to press me further that Yousuke interjected.
"Oi!" Yousuke growled, glaring at the violet eyed Senshi. "Leave her alone, she already feels bad enough as it is!"
"But it's true," Haruka added in, her eyes hardened and cold. "What was she doing while our princess was fighting the enemy?"
It was while tears were still streaming down my cheeks that a thought went through my head. "Are you kidding me right now Uranus! You have no right to say that with the blood that is on your and Neptune's hands!...And for your information, I was doing my best to save Usagi, Uranus, you're welcome by the way!...See what I mean viewers?...She is similar to Angel Salvia with regards to being arrogant....only I consider her and Neptune, to be far worse then Salvia ever was or could be!" As I briefly, with tears still in my eyes, turned my head, and my eyesight to the right of me, to address the viewers.
"She was making sure we were alright," Scarlet stated, standing from her seat. "What's wrong with that?"
"And how long did she spend "checking on you", Hmm?" Michiru replied calmly, her face blank.
"Really Neptune you too!? How about the blood that is on your hands as well as Uranus?!...You have absolutely no right to tell me how to conduct myself as a leader, when you and Uranus can't even choose a side and stick with it!" I thought to myself.
"They're her and Momoko's friends, she was really worried about them!" Yousuke put in, his fists tightening.
"Yet as one of your leaders, she should have had a better understanding of a battle," Setsuna countered.
"Okay, really, Pluto too?!...Actually...Pluto I can understand why...Still, Naoko Takeuchi didn't use her to her full potential in her anime...And as for this story viewers...I intend to give her a more prominent role, then Naoko Takeuchi ever could give her," I thought to myself. As, with my tears still very much in my eyes, I once again turned my head, as well as my eyesight, to the right of me, to briefly address the viewers.
Soon the whole room was in an uproar, until a bright silver light emanated from Usagi's broach, engulfing the entire ground floor. Once the light died down, everyone found themselves what looked like space.
Setsuna looked around the strange space and came to a conclusion. "It seems we're inside the Silver Crystal, or at least a subspace pocket dimension that it created."
"Well, that explains why I can feel Koneko's presence all around us," Haruka chuckled with a smirk.
"Everyone.." a voice echoed from no where, catching everyone's attention.
"Who's there?" Scarlet called out, trying to find the source of the voice.
"Wait... Usagi? Is that you?" Me and Momoko wondered aloud, with me clearing the tears out of my eyes.
"Yes," she replied. "I sensed anger and distress within you all... Why?"
"Because it's my fault that you're injured," I replied, tears beginning to once again fall. And as they did, I felt a gentle embrace around me, causing me to look up, and was greeted with what seemed to be a shimmering astral form of Usagi.
"Usagi!" her senshi exclaimed.
She smiled, looking at the group before she then looked back at me. "And no, it's no ones fault. I chose to protect you and Momoko because I could see that you were only carrying out your roles as leaders and checking on your teammates. There is nothing wrong with that."
Everyone that was in the previous argument before, had guilty expressions upon their faces. The Outer Senshi approached me and Momoko and slightly bowed. "We apologize for our earlier actions," They said.
Me and Momoko looked at all of them and smiled. "Thank you, apology accepted," we both said, and with our reply, they straightened out and smiled in relief.
Haruka glanced over to Usagi with relief and confusion in her eyes. Usagi smiled at her and glanced back at the group before her. "Now that the problem is solved, there is another reason why you were summoned here." Catching everyone's attention, she continued. "Now that most of the planetary guardians have met, it's time to exchange history," she motioned for everyone to gather around and they obeyed. "Nearly a millennia ago, there was once a kingdom known as the Silver Millennium. The kingdom was ruled by my past-life mother, Queen Serenity and her court, made up of the rulers of the other planets. Everything was peaceful until an ancient evil emerged, reducing the once plentiful kingdom to ruble and ashes, slaying my own court and myself in the process. That is when Queen Serenity used the last of her strength to send me and my court to the future to be reborn as well as sealing the evil. Now with us being reborn, the ancient evil broke free from the seal and began a search for the Silver Crystal. With the enemy rising once again, our Mau guardians began to search for for us. Sailor Venus was the first to be found by her guardian, Artemis. I was the next to awaken as Sailor Moon and over time, we were able to find each other. I, however, was the Hime we've been looking for the whole time but... unfortunately, I had only awakened as Princess Serenity when Prince Endymion, the one I had fallen in love with during the Silver Millennium, protected me from an enemy attack. With him in enemy hands, they used him as a means to get to me and the Crystal, it succeeded, but we were able to defeat them in the end..." Usagi continued to tell them about her battles and the strife they had went through. Once she finished telling them about the battle with Chaos, everyone was silent.
Yousuke was the one to break the silence. "Heh, sounds familiar, doesn't it Momo-Pi, Shinko?" he chuckled.
Me and Momoko nodded in agreement and giggled. "Yes."
The Senshi shared confused glances then looked at the Love Angels, Scarlet smirked. "I guess it's our turn to tell our story." she shared an understanding glance with her comrades.
Momoko was the one to tell our history. "There are three realms that exist, the Angels, the Humans, and the devils. All three realms once existed in harmony, but then the Devils began to revolt and invaded the Angels under Raindevila's command who was after the Saint Something Four. Both sides fought with equal strength until an devil named Uragano entered the fray. Aphrodite, Queen of the Angels, sent out her sister, Shinko's and my mother, Celeste with three other warriors also named Angel Salvia, Angel Daisy and Angel Lily, but during a fight with the devils, Angel Daisy and Angel Lily were blasted away from the battle to somewhere unknown. Our mother and Angel Salvia fought against Uragano, but when Celeste and Uragano blasted each other, they both fell from the Angel World and into the Human world. My mother lost her memory, that's when she met my dad and was given the name Sakura. He brought her to the hospital and visited her everyday, eventually, after my mom recovered, my father proposed to her. But one year before I was born they had and raised another daughter, who they named Shinko, who mysteriously disappeared, mom's memory returned, meaning she had to return to the Angel World." Momoko continued telling how me and her were reunited in our first battle together, her friends becoming Love Angels, meeting Angel Salvia, discovering Kazuya Yanagiba was Limone, Yousuke was the reincarnation of Viento, and defeating Raindevila.
"And yet Momoko, something tells me that we haven't seen the last of Raindevila. Because as I'm sure you all know by now viewers, evil never takes a holiday," I thought to myself, as I once again turned my eyesight to the left of me to address the viewers.
"Wow, talk about similarities," Makoto mused.
"Aphrodite?! Do you think we'll meet her?" Minako said excitedly.
"Maybe," Hinagiku replied, shrugging her shoulders.
"With the arguing over and solved, and history told, I must send you all back," Usagi smiled, motioning her hand a bright light appeared.
"Mamoru," Yousuke clasped Mamoru's shoulder causing him to look at Yousuke. "Don't worry, from what we understand and from what we just learned, Usagi is really tough," giving Mamoru a reassuring smile.
"Yousuke..." Mamoru murmured, then smiled back. "Thank you."
Silence filled the room until Hotaru's stomach growled causing her to turn red in embarrassment and everyone laughed. "I am very sorry," Hotaru mumbled shyly.
"Let's eat some breakfast then," Makoto gave a wink and a thumbs up.
After setting the table, everyone sat down and began to talk but it began to get out of hand of who was who, so they decided that they would take turns, starting with Ami.
"Ami Mizuno," she started. "I'm a first class doctor and a part time instructor for art and swim teacher," she said with a smile, then glanced over to Rei, signaling her to go next.
"Rei Hino," she began. "I'm the head priestess at my family's shine, the Hikawa Shrine, and help with local charities by singing." once she finished, she looked over to Makoto, nodding to her.
"Makoto Kino," she introduced. "My friends call me Mako, I work as a part-time Mixed Martial Arts sensei and I own a bakery and flower shop." as she finished, she looked at Minako.
"Minako Aino," she began. "My friends call me Mina, I'm a singer and model, I go by "Aimi" when I'm working."
"I've heard about you before," Hinagiku blurted. "Your that rising idol everyone likes!"
"Yes," Minako nodded. "Okay, how about you go next Haruka."
"Sure," she nodded. "Haruka Tenoh, world-wide race car champion." she glanced to her lover, silently telling her to start.
"Well Uranus, if you and Neptune could've only picked a side and stuck with it, then I would've trusted the two of you a whole lot more then I do right now...seeing as how the two of you made a very poor decision regarding that fight in Juuban years ago. And yet, I am electing to overlook all of that...despite my anger towards the actions you have both made...Because I am sure you both had your reasons for it...I just hope that it doesn't come back to haunt me...and while I am at it viewers...you have probably figured out by this point that that was just part of the information that I found out regarding their betrayal involving a certain evil senshi...What else did I learn? Well viewers, I guess you'll just have to read on and find out..." I thought to myself, as I turned my eyesight to the right of me to address the viewers.
"Michiru Kaioh," she started. "I'm a professional violinist and rank 2nd world-wide in swimming."
"Cool!" Yuri commented.
Michiru looked over to Setsuna and she followed suit. "Setsuna Meioh," she introduced. "I'm Haruka's medic when she's racing and a fashion designer."
Hinagiku, Yuri, and Yousuke were completely shocked.
Everyone just laughed at their shocked reactions, Scarlet just chuckled with a smirk, me and Momoko turned to them with a confused look. "What? You didn't know?" Me and Momoko asked, with Momoko tilting her head, they shook their heads in response.
"Wait, how did you know Momoko and Shinko? You too Scarlet," Hinagiku wondered, looking at her two friends.
"I thought it was obvious," Momoko replied nonchalantly with her head tilted slightly.
"I guess not sis," I said, while smiling with my eyes closed.
"Same, but there are somethings called "Biographies"," Scarlet quipped with a smirk.
Hinagiku, Yuri, and Yousuke all sighed and sat back down. "Well, that was unexpected," Yuri smiled.
"Hotaru Tomoe," she said cheerfully. "And I'm studying to be a doctor."
"Yep, she still intimidates the heck out of me," I thought to myself.
Momoko clapped her hands once, "Now that you introduced yourselves to us, it's our turn," she said happily. "I'll go first," she took a calming breath and began. "Momoko Hanasaki, I'm working as a free-lance Photographer and Journalist," she looked over to me and nodded.
"Shinko Hanasaki, I am Momoko's sister, and like my sister Momoko, I'm also working as a free-lance Photographer and Journalist," I then looked over and signaled for Hinagiku to start.
"Hinagiku Tamano, I work part time at my family's flower shop and work as a Martial Arts assistant," she signaled for Yuri to start.
"Yuri Tanima, I work at a fabric store and as a fashion designer," she politely introduced then glanced over to Scarlet.
"Scarlet O'Hara, I'm currently hired help," she said plainly.
"Yousuke Fuuma, I'm the main goal keeper for my soccer team, not one ball has passed me yet," he said confidently.
"Yeah, except when Momoko passes by," Hinagiku teased. Causing everyone to laugh.
"Hey!" Yousuke fumed.
