*Theme song: The Touch, by Stan Bush*
Michelle: So... This
Rini is from the future?
Reuisu: Yes.
Miya: And how does she relate to us again?
Reuisu: She is Serena's future daughter.
Chris: Wait a second, you guys have been to the future?
Reuisu: We try not to talk about it. No one should know their own future.
Lucy: So what does your say?
Reuisu paused for a moment.
Reuisu: I was still in a coma at the time. They only relayed events of what had been
happening at the time with the Wiseman and Prince Diamond... Oi...
The Titans were assembled, once again, on the top of
Darien's apartment building. They were
beginning to feel that they were doing this quite oftenly, and should probably
find a new building to hang around.
Miya: She's late.
Reuisu: She's Serena's daughter.
Chris: Good point.
All of a sudden, a red portal opened behind them, sparking
with energy as Rini clumsily fell out of it and onto the ground.
Rini: OW! That hurt!
Michelle: She's Serena's daughter, alright.
Rini: What do you mean by that?! And who are you guys?
Reuisu stepped in front of them.
Reuisu: Rini, remember when I went out looking for the
Sailor Titans and Serena had you sent back to the future?
Rini: Oh, so these are the Sailor Titans?
Reuisu: Yep. So I
hear you're here on vacation.
Rini: Yeah, my mom and dad said I've been pushing myself
lately to finish my Sailor training, and so I should take it easy for a couple
days. They say when I'm done, I'll
become Sailor Neo Moon!
Reuisu: Really?
Rini: Oh yeah, it's true!
There's even talk of getting the Neo senshi ready...
Reuisu: Neo...
Senshi?
Rini: Yeah, the sons and daughters of- oh, that's right, I'm
not supposed to talk about the future.
Reuisu: Indeed. So,
come along, child. Our first stop is
Titans coffee, where you shall rest, and think of what to do while you're here.
Rini: So where'd you get the money to buy this place, Lucy?
Lucy: Back in England, my parents own a multi-national
corporation. We're rich.
Reuisu: Yes, similar to the traitors...
Rini: Who?
Miya: Amara and Michelle.
That's what he calls them.
Reuisu: But they are traitors!
Michelle: They say it was a trick to get close to Galaxia,
and Serena vouches for them on that.
Reuisu: Oh come on!
Desperate times call for desperate measures, but they could've attacked
Galaxia instead of attacking Pluto and Saturn!
They were practically next to her, they had an open shot!
Rini: Sometimes they DO make me angry...
Reuisu: That's the spirit, Rini! Back me up on this.
Rini: But they're Sailor Soldiers, nonetheless!
Reuisu sighed, and slumped back into his chair.
Reuisu: Has the planet gone mad? Those two are the epitome of WRONG with Sailors!
Chris: Look, they've paid up for it with their help to us
over this time.
Reuisu: That's your opinion, Chris. I still think-
Rini suddenly grasped her chest in pain and screamed. The Titans asked her what had happened, but
she just said she felt pain. At first
they thought it was something from the coffee shop food, but they then
remembered they hadn't ordered anything yet!
All of a sudden, while she was still screaming, her body began to have
sections of it fade away and come back.
Reuisu, responding on instinct, grabbed Rini and ran outside.
Reuisu: Call the others!
Tell them to meet me at the void!
The Inner soldiers were gathered just outside of the opening
of Reuisu's void.
Serena: So what happened to Rini?
Ami: Reuisu didn't tell me exactly what's happening to her,
only that when she went to the coffee shop, she suddenly screamed in pain, and
she began to... Well... Disappear.
Lita: That sounds familiar.
Rei: When Neherenia kidnapped Darien, isn't that exactly
what happened to her? She began to
disappear because her past was being altered?
Mina: Yeah. I think
we should talk to them ourselves, though.
The inner soldiers went over to the ladder, and climbed up
into the void. However, when they
reached the void entrance, they felt as if they were suddenly travelling across
a great wind, but when they got through the void entrance, it stopped. In front of them were Sailors Pluto and
Moonshine, holding out their time staffs at a giant screen. In the screen seemed to be colored
lines. The lines kept moving across the
screen, sometimes breaking away from each other, but about nine of the lines
stayed together, and then one line finally partially broke off with the others,
and was joined by another.
Pluto: Stop!
The screen stopped.
Reuisu: 30th century, alright. Two weeks before Rini is born.
According to this, Serena is killed by a poisonous gas leaked into
Crystal Tower while she was pregnant.
Serena: Excuse me?
The outer Soldiers and the Titans turned to see the inner
soldiers staring in bewilderment at them.
Moonshine: Good, you've arrived. We've erected a temporal stasis field around this void area, none
of the time line changes should affect us in here.
Mina: What are you talking about?
Reuisu: When Rini began to disappear slightly, I figured
something to do with time had caused her these seizures. I set up the stasis field, and I asked
Sailor Pluto and Sailor Moonshine to use their time powers to find out what
happened. And according to this, it has
something to do with a time two weeks before Rini's birth.
Amara: We were just about to transform and travel to the
future when you showed up.
Serena: How is Rini?
Reuisu: While she stays here, she'll be protected from the
effects of the temporal damage. We'll
correct the damage, then come back here.
Outers: Stay here and look after Rini.
If anything happens, it's up to you to help. ALPHA CENTAURI POWER!!!
The whole pink glittery thingy appears with a silhouette of
Reuisu. Chest armor enveloped his torso
as the symbol of spirit appeared on his forehead. Leg armor came around his legs, with ankle armor and foot
armor. Behind the armor, only visible
in spots where different peices of armor joined, was a black outfit. Arm armor enveloped his arms, wrists, and
hands. His hand armor was seperated,
only having finger armor and palm and backhand armoring. A red blade emitted from his wrist
armor. A green grid in the shape of the
helmet armor, except for the visor. The
red blade passed in front of the grid, and the head armor appeared. The black visor formed directly afterwards. He stood in a pose of his two red blades
coming out as he kneeled down with the Greek symbol Alpha behind him.
Lucy: CEPHIROS TITAN POWER!!!
Out of her ring came energy bolts which wrapped around her
torso, forming the front of the outfit.
Then the ring fired beams at both her arms, wrapping around them to form
the white gloves. The ring shout out
another beam, which wrapped around her legs and formed the boots. She then twirled around as did the beam from
the ring, which wrapped around her hips and formed into the skirt. Her tiara and earrings formed with one last
blast from the ring. She stood in a
pose of her winking with her ring outstretched in front of her.
Miya: CRESCENT HEART POWER!!!
Out of Miya's heart brooch came three large hearts. One heart descended down her body, and the
other two onto her arms. As the hearts
passed over her skin, they formed the gloves of her Sailor outfit. As the larger heart passed over her torso
and slowly over her legs, forming the mini-skirt and the boots. As the three hearts ended at her feet and
hands, they shot up to her head and hit it, forming the tiara and
earrings. She stood in a pose with her
making a smooching face.
Chris: ASTEROID BLAZING POWER!!!
A glittery silhouette of Chris appeared. Asteroids shot around him, and several
blasted into his chest, forming into the shirt and bow. Asteroids then shot into his arms, exploding
on contact, and forming into the sleeves.
Finally, the last asteroids shot into his legs, exploding on impact, and
forming into the pants and boots. The
last asteroid shot into his face, forming into a halo. He stood in a pose with an asteroid shooting
at him from behind.
Serena: MOON ETERNAL POWER!
Ami: MERCURY CRYSTAL POWER!
Rei: MARS CRYSTAL POWER!
Lita: JUPITER CRYSTAL POWER!
Mina: VENUS CRYSTAL POWER!
Pluto: Using both our time staffs, we should be able to
travel to the point in time instantaneously, instead of having to go through
the entire time passageway as usual.
The two crossed the staffs, and aimed them at a random
section of the void. Both staffs fired
out a beam of energy at one spot, forming into a round portal. One by one, everyone entered...
...And reappeared inside the main throne room in Crystal
Tower. Neo Queen Serenity and King
Darien just stared at the group. They
all turned to them.
Serenity: Um... What
are you doing here?
Moon: Oh, hey, your majesty...
Serenity: Um.. You
shouldn't be here...
Pluto bowed before Serenity and explained.
Pluto: Your majesty, farther in the future, your daughter
travelled back into the past for a vacation.
She was then slowly erased from time itself, and we have tracked the
source back here, to this time. Within
the next few hours, some sort of poisonous gas will infect you, killing
you. We are here to prevent this.
Serenity and Darien examined those around them, noticing the
outer and inner soldiers. However, both
their faces stopped when they saw Reuisu.
For a brief moment, Centauri could tell that the two suddenly twitched
when they saw Centauri.
Centauri: Is something amiss?
Darien: NO! No, nothing...
Why would you say that?
Reuisu: When you saw me, you flinched.
Serenity: No we didn't.
Mars: Come to think of it, in the previous times we've come to
the future, none of you told us where Reuisu was.
Serenity: It's of no concern! My life is now what's at my concern.
Centauri: I will bring you to your room, your highness, and
guard you from there. Everyone else,
spread out and find out if someone is here placing in the gas.
Reuisu: Spill it.
Serenity: I beg your pardon?
Reuisu: Something happened to me, doesn't it?
Serenity narrowed her eyes at him.
Serenity: Yes. You
were born.
Reuisu: DON'T PLAY LITTLE MISS CRYPTIC WITH ME, SERENITY!
Serenity: That's not exactly the nicest tone to give to your
queen.
Reuisu: I never liked a Monarchy, anyway.
Serenity: You were a prince.
Reuisu: Key word: Was.
No longer prince.
The two then just glared at each other. All of a sudden, they both noticed a green
gas seeping in through the floor! Both
breath it in and begin to cough drastically.
Reuisu, confused by the moment, can't decide what to do. His mind snaps back into focus and he grabs
a hankerchief from his pocket and covers his mouth and nose. Serenity has passed out, unconscious. At least, Reuisu HOPED she was only
unconscious. Reuisu grabbed her and
kicked the door open, brining her out and back into fresh air. The Titans and Soldiers ran in with King
Darien.
Darien: What happened?!
Reuisu: This gas seeped in through the floor! I think that's our assassination attempt.
Voice: Not quite!
The voice had come from within the room. All of a sudden, Beryl walked out of the
room!
