Sage burst into the room where the guys were still playing poker. They looked up at him.

“Sage?” Rowen stood up. “What’s wrong? You look as though you have seen a ghost.”

“Lita’s disappeared.” The rest of them stood up. “I need your help getting her back. The Amazon Trio has taken her somewhere and I have made a coalition with the sailor scouts so we can get her. Please, help us.”

“You don’t need to ask me twice.” Rowen said as he threw his Kanji orb in the air, held open his pocket and let it land inside of it. “Let’s go kick some Amazon ass.”

“I’ve been waiting for a good fight.” Said Kento grabbing his orb and then tossing Cye his.

“Hey, I’ve been looking for that.”

“Yeah? Well I found it.”

“Where?”

“In you gym bag a few months ago.” Cye looked astounded for a minute but then he put Kento in a headlock and looked up at Sage.

“Sure…you can count on me.” Kento’s arms were flailing as he struggled to breathe. Sage looked at Ryo.

“Ryo, I know that we haven’t gotten along so great but I really need your help. I understand that you hate her but I love her.”

“That’s why I’m going to help. You know I won’t back out on you.” Sage smiled. He felt like hugging him but then decided it would be awkward and it would make him feel less of a man. “I know how you feel.” said Ryo. “Anyway, what are we waiting for? Let’s go.”

“Where are we going?” They turned towards the door. Kale and Dais stood staring at them with very childlike and inquisitive eyes. “Can I come too? What are we doing?”

“We?” asked Cye.

“You mean after all the guidance and stuff we gave you, you are going to throw us a side like a portion of raw meat left to expire until a hungry dog comes around to tear us to smithereens.”

“Something like that yeah.”

“Pleeeeze.” Kale begged.

“Okay, let me sum it up. Sage’s girlfriend has gone missing.” Kale looked at Sage.

“You have a girlfriend?” Sage nodded.

“Kale, pay attention, anyway, she has been kidnapped by the Amazon Trio…”

“Actually it’s the Amazon Duo. I killed Fish Eye.”

“You did!” Rowen jumped. “YAY! Ding dong the witch is dead, which old witch? The wicked witch…” Sage walked over to him and hit him over the head with a newspaper. “Geez, I get the point.”

“LIKE I WAS SAYING, Sage has made an alliance with the Sailor Scouts to get her back. So here is our assignment. Find the girl, kill the bad guys, and have a good time. Got that?”

“Yup,” Said Kale. “gotchya.”

“Well if he gets to go I think it only fair that should be able to as well.”

“And what about us?” They all turned around again. Anubis, Sekhmet, and Kayura were standing behind Kale and Dais.

“What about you?” asked Kale.

“Do you really suppose we will let you two go without suitable supervision?” Sekhmet said. “You’ll end up destroying some city. That’s why I fully propose to go with you.”

“Oh come of it.” Kale yelled

“You come of it.”

“You.”

“You.”

“You infinity.” Kale smiled while Sekhmet went red with frustration. “We’ll let you all come. Won’t we?”

“I suppose.” said Kento. “Let’s go. It’s morphin time!” They all looked at him.

“What the hell…” Cye decided not to conclude the sentence. It would only result in pain.

The boys all met back at the apartment complex waiting for the Sailor Scouts to come. Sage was getting more and more worried as time went on. Soon the deadline Saturn had made passed and his face began to lose its color.

“Sage, chill.” said Kale. “The girls will get here. You know how women must always be fashionably late. They need to make an entrance.”

“How stereotypical.” said a woman’s voice. The boys all turned around to see Sailor Saturn. But only Sage knew it was Sailor Saturn.

“Where are the others?” he asked.

“They are on there way. However, the news that their dear friend was captured made Mina, Serena, Raye and Amy a bit sad. They needed longer than we thought to accept it. But they will be here soon.”

“Wait a second.” said Kento. “Serena, Mina, Raye, and Amy are all Sailor Scouts?”

“That is correct. By the way, I am Sailor Saturn, Sailor Scout of Destruction.”

“Why are you the Sailor Scout of Destruction?” asked Anubis.

“Because I am the only Sailor Scout with enough power to destroy a planet. It is lucky for everyone that the Inner Sailors stopped me from using the power when I was the sovereign of silence. This world owes a lot to the scouts as they do to you.”

“Saturn,” said a tall woman with long velvet green hair. “They are here.” She walked up to her and a second later she was joined by six other women. “In order to save Lita,” she began, “we will need to travel through time and space. You see the Amazon Trio is no longer working for Zirconia. The Sailor Scouts did succeed in killing him. However, an evil that is well over six-hundred million years old is beginning to regain power.”

“Are you talking about the evil that was in my visions?” asked Raye.

“And the evil that was in our dreams?” asked Ryo.

“Yes and yes.” Pluto replied. “When Raye started the readings at the fire temple, the sacred link that holds all of you together were activated. Now you know the history of your powers and your love.”

“What does this have to do with us though?” Sage asked. “They defeat us and gained control of everything in the solar system.”

“That is not true. Yes they defeated Mercury, Venus, Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. But they failed to remember that for every star and moon there is a protector. I summoned all of them to my palace on Pluto and we fought against them with the combined forces of millions of armies. They were defeated that time but there queen was immortal. So we banished her to one of the planets where the most blood was shed. We put spells and barriers around it so she couldn’t escape.”

“But she did?” asked Anubis.

“No. Not yet. The only way for her to escape is to find enough purity in dreams to break the barrier and call once again on the time travelers. After the battle I had taken the remaining time travelers and locked them in a dimension where their escape was almost impossible.”

“But they escaped.” said Saturn. “They found away past Pluto’s time gate. It is most likely around the time when she came down to earth to help you all with the purity chalice and finding me.”

“But if you are the Sailor Scout of Destruction, how could they take your planet?” Kale asked.

“I was lost on earth and trapped inside a body of evil. Those were the days when no human but Endymiond and I could live here. Even if I had lived on Saturn at the time I would have been apathetic towards the war.”

“Anyway,” Pluto said trying to take back control of the conversation. “I blame myself for this. I should have wiped out the time travelers instead of showing them mercy. Now there queen is calling for them and they can hear it. The Amazon Trio heard it as well. The barriers on that keep her from escaping are meant only for her. They were able to gain access to the planet and carry out her orders. And one of them was to capture Lita. One of the purest people with the purest dreams.”

“Well they can’t have Lita!” Sage yelled. “I won’t let them use her purity.”

“Sage...” said Raye. “None of us will let them use Lita’s purity. I think we should put everything that has happened between us all behind us as of now. We must work together as a team and learn how to trust each other. Are we all agreed?”

Only the Sailor Scouts and Rowen and Sage agreed. Ryo, Kento, Cye, and the warlords looked back and forth at each other with rebellious looks on their faces. Then Anubis spoke.

“I don’t see why we can’t just get her back on our own. I mean...we have never failed before. Leave it to us.”

“No!” shouted Mina. “Lita is my friend and I will not just stay here and wait for you to find her. The more people we have searching for her the better. The more people we have fighting together the better.” She started to cry and as she wiped her tears Cye looked at her with sympathy. “We have a common enemy. Why can’t we fight together? Is it really that hard to trust us?”

Cye walked over to Mina and gave her a hug. “I’m agreed on this coalition.” he said. “Mina has a point. We should fight together.” Mina cried on his shoulder and he held her tighter and started to console her.

“Are we infectious or something?” asked Serena “We don’t bite you know.” she stepped forward and stood with pride. “I am Sailor Moon...leader of the Sailor Scouts and there is no way in hell that we are not going to find Lita. We will do this with...or with out you help. I would be more than happy to recognize you as our allies but it won’t influence me at all it you prefer not to be.”

“Guys...” said Sage quietly. “Please...just join the union and help me get her back. You know how much this means to me. I need her you guys. I love her.”

“I’ll join.” said Kento.

“Me too.” said Ryo.

“I guess we could join.” said Kayura. “By the way...this is Kale, Dais, Anubis, and Sekhmet. I’m Kayura.”

“Well...I’m Trista Meio, this is Hotaru Tomoe, Amara Tenoh’, Michelle Kaio, and most of you already know Amy Anderson, Raye Hino, Mina Aino, and Serena Tsukino. So now that we are all in this alliance lets begin our journey.” She pulled out a small object that looked like a marker. “CRONUS, GUARDIAN OF TIME AND SPACE, TAKE US TO THE TIME GATE!”

The ground beneath them seemed to vanish and they were being hurled into a vortex of color. Then, just as quick as they had left it...they had found the ground again, the marble ground. They were surrounded by a lavender haze and a black mass of sky that went on forever. The only other thing there besides them was a large, magnificent doubled white door. Pluto walked toward it and then quickly whirled around, her hair whipped too, as though trying to keep up with her movement. Anubis’ jaw dropped as he witnessed this elegance.

“Before we enter this part of time you must know...the Sailor Soldiers have yet to find a more dangerous place in the universe. In some places the visibility is almost zero and there are many deadly creatures here...most of them aren’t tall enough to rise above the haze. Short as they are-they are more harmful then any force you have fought on earth. Also, some time travelers have been left in here, still looking for an escape. So I need to know, are you all ready to face what could be your death.”

They all nodded. There was a moment of ominous silence and then she quickly raised her garnet rod above her head and for the first time exposed the key design at the bottom to the boys. She stuck it in the key hole and suddenly the ground began to shake. They all struggled to keep their balance, except for Sage and Pluto. Rowen was holding Amy who was easily the lightest and therefore it was easier for her to fall over.

Only a few of them noticed that the doors were slowly opening. “Are you ready!?” screamed Pluto to be heard over the rumbling of the giant doors. Finally, they were completely opened and she turned back towards them. “Let’s go.” she walked through the doors and everybody followed her.

Serena turned to Saturn to ask her something that has been bothering her. “If the garnet rod is the only key that can open the time gate, how did the Time Travelers get out? I mean, you said that escape was almost impossible.”

“We failed to remember Rini.”

Serena’s eyes opened wide for a while. “What does Rini have to do with this?”

“You forget that Rini is not of you time. She used a time key to travel to your generation to help you out. But the more you that you fell out of love with Darien the worst of Rini was.”

Raye couldn’t help but overhear them. “Serena isn’t falling out of love with Darien. She is crazy about him.”

“Actually, Raye, I’ve been having mixed feelings about him.”

“Serena, the future is set. You are meant to be with Darien. You know this. The Princess of the Moon and the Prince of the Earth have always been destined for each other, even before you were born. There is no way that Serena doesn’t love Darien.”

Now Michelle entered the conversation. “Yes the future had a specific plan for Serena; however, she has always had the power to change her future. That, and Trista has been looking through some old documents left by the old rulers of the Planetary Rulers of the Solar System. She found evidence that your visions are true Raye. That Prince Endymiond was not the husband of Queen Serenity.”

“And obviously,” continued Hotaru, “Rini can’t exist if you and Darien don’t love each other anymore. So as she began to disappear, the Amazon Trio got a hold of the time key we gave her and opened the time gate while Trista was away.”

“And you failed to notice this for four years?” Serena said.

“We didn’t know until Trista went back and was attacked by them.

Raye still looked bothered about something. “Well if Darien is not the one that Serena should be with then who...”

Hotaru pointed at Kento. He had not been paying attention to a word that any of them were saying so when he felt people staring at him and turned to see Saturn pointing at him his eyes gave the familiar confused look. “What did I do?”

“Nothing.” said Serena solemnly. He stopped walking until they caught up with him and he walked next to Serena. Raye, who was thoroughly confused walked ahead of them and Saturn and Michelle slowed down and walked next to Amara and Sekhmet who were watching the back.

“Kento?” Serena asked. “What did you think of the dream you had?”

“It was a little confusing.”

“Did you think it was revolting?”

“Now why would I think that?” he asked putting his arm around her. “Except for the fact that we both died, I didn’t mind having it.” She leaned in closer to him and closed her eyes.
