Konnichiwa minna-san! I have decided to get my writing act together and be a bit faster with Part Two. May someone please remind me for my next fanfic to keep the Prologue shorter? I have real trouble getting the Parts to be longer than the Prologue, ... *frustrated sigh* Well, you can only learn from mistakes, ne?

Thank you all for your nice comments! ^^ I'm really happy when I get them. *huggles* to you all. I especially thank and greet Cynthia, ... You know who you are! Go read her fanfic! It's a must read! *hehehe* ^^ You probably already know the deal, my e-mail address is greta.maier@gmx.net and I'll welcome all flames, hate/love notes, edits, etc. By the way, if you ever get confused by anything, mail me! As you read this part you might notice something about the Red Cercis Kingdom- *stops herself* Wait! I'll say so at the end. ^^;;

It gets boring after awhile to write these disclaimers, but, got to do it, *sighs* I do not in any way own the manga "Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon" nor the anime show going by the same name. Rights go to the creator Naoko Takeuchi and all anime-producing companies.

Part Two: Live: Silver Millennium

Quiet seemed to be draped about everything. The day was yet young and fresh. Leaves, grass blades, flower petals, all were covered in small water droplets. Dew. The chirping of birds could be heard somewhere; the sky seemed still to be caught in the late night, yet somehow trapped in the dawning of the day. The dawn seemed to have been tipped into various pastel colours, light shades of lilac to orange. Amongst it, the sun was slowly rising, ... Much to the despair of a Princess. The sun filtering through the large glass windows, was seemingly tickling her out of sleep.

Turning vividly around in her bed, she managed to get herself tied up in her covers.

"Someone, ... Someone turn it off, ..." talking groggily, Serenity reached up to her pillow. Pulling it down to her body, she hugged it tightly.

Mumbling against it, she tried to keep her face turned away from her windows direction. Turning a bit more, she, ... yelped. Having turned once too much, the Princess found herself landing beside her bed with a 'thump'.

"How wonderful, ..." growling, the Princess looked up from beneath her blanket, the white covers draped over her body. "... And yet another bruise, ..."

Shoving the blanket unto her bed, she sighed. Leaning against the soft mattress, hands folded under her chin, she muttered some not so beautiful words under her breath. Crawling unto her bed again, she pushed one strap of her nightgown up her shoulder.

"Now I'm positively sure that I won't fall asleep again, ..." Swinging her legs over the side of her bed gracefully, Serenity sighed.

Turning her head to look at her nightstand, she frowned. According to the clock she had standing there, it was little past, ...

"Six 'o clock in the morning?? Gods, ..." Groaning, the Princess shook her head.

"Now I know that I'll be bored, ..." Standing up, she looked at her form from a long, delicately decorated, full body mirror.

"Ugh, ..." Her hair seemed nothing like it had been the night before. It seemed to be somewhat something of a bad hair day and sleeping through a few days in a row. Hair ends were sticking up and seemingly made her look a little, ... fluffy. Taking out her emerald embedded combs as well as various hair ties and pins, she swept it behind her shoulders, letting it drop down her back, brushing the floor.

(Authors Note: If you are wondering, yes, as Princess Serenity her hair is that long. Do not rely on the anime for that, check the manga. Sorry to disturb your reading. Now on with the story.)

Taking out a brush, she carefully let it run through her hair. Working through it carefully, Serenity muttered.

"What am I supposed to do now, ... Really, ... At this time of the day, ..." Finishing putting up her hair in buns at each side of her head, using skilled fingers, she swept her fringes out of her face. Brushing slightly against the golden crescent moon on her forehead, she stopped for a moment. Her Princess sign. Her royal sign. The sign of this Planet, the Moon. Turning to look away from the mirror, she bit her lip. Being royalty, ... Was it all that wonderful? Shaking her head, she winced inwardly. She shouldn't think about it, ... Glancing one last time at herself, she smiled.

"At least I don't have to change yet, ..." Smoothing out her long nightgown, she tipped her chin with one finger.

"Now, to see if anyone's up!" Heading out her door, she glanced up and down the corridors. Frowning, she mustered her self-control.

"No one, absolutely no one, ..." Continuingly wandering down the hall, she sighed yet again. Tagging slightly, she scowled.

"Stupid sun, ..." Wailing slightly, she bowed her head.

"Why is the sun that stupid?" Hearing a soft voice, Serenity twisted her body backwards.

"Someone!"

"Hey, I'm more than just someone, ..." Smiling, Mercury continued walking, the simple dress she wore sweeping behind her.

"Sorry Mercury, ... Just too boring at this time of day, ..."

"It's all right, ... And don't walk so hunched, ... It's not good for you, ..." Sticking out her tongue playfully at that comment, Serenity pulled a face.

"You and your medical stuff, ..." Shaking her head slightly, she grabbed Mercury's arm.

"You should have more fun!" Mockingly dramatizing, she pulled her along slightly. Mercury pulling back, smiled.

"I'm sorry. I have to go with Armina outside and look at some new medically suitable plants in the gardens, ..."

"Ah, that's why you're up so early, ... You and you're extra learning, ... I don't think that's much worse than walking hunched. It won't become you either, ....." Crossing her arms across her chest, the young Princess grumbled.

"Hey!" Defending herself weakly, Mercury tried to hide a smile.

"Are you lying, Mercury?" Nudging her ribs slightly, the Princess grinned evilly. Placing her hands on her hips, the blue haired girl frowned.

"I don't lie!"

"Hmmpf, ... You're just too straight with everything, ..." Grumbling, Serenity turned away with closed eyes. Laughing,

Mercury brushed against the other Princess' shoulder.

"Sere, ... Really, ..." Sighing, Serenity opened one eye.

"Alright, alright. You go study those plants with Armina, ..." Smiling, she turned back fully.

"And Mercury, say, what's the date today?"

"The tenth of April. Why?"

"Don't let me forget to meet you, Jupiter and Venus at a time. Mars' birthday is soon!" Winking at her friend, Serenity slowly continued down the hallway.

"Alright, alright." Smiling at the white haired Princess' disappearing back, she checked the watch she wore. "Oh no!" She was getting late already. Picking up her pace, Mercury ran to the Palace Gardens. Hearing the tapping of her friends' shoes, Serenity grinned.

"Oh she really is too straight, ... Needs something to loosen her up, ... Really, ..." Checking her own watch, she sighed. Only fifteen minutes had passed. Surely everyone except her, Mercury and Armina were still asleep.

"Maybe mother has already gotten up, ... She usually is the first one to be found around here, ..." Keeping her voice down, Serenity continued down the hallway where two bedrooms were located at. Stopping at a certain door, she giggled slightly. Pushing it open, she spied down both corridors. No one. Good. Steeping inside, she quickly and softly closed the door a bit. Looking around the large room, she spotted a desk. Quickly walking there, she kept silent the best she could. No need to wake up Mars now. Grabbing a small book, she opened it, flipping through a few pages. Frowning, she laid it down again.

"Nothing about her birthday? Barely uses her diary, ..." Muttering, she leaned against the desk.

"... Who's, ... Who's here, ... Sailor Mars won't let, ... Let you get away, ..." Trying to hold back her laughing out loud at the comment from an almost asleep Mars, Serenity clamped her hand over her mouth. Walking on tiptoes to the bed, she leaned down by it.

"Sshh, ... It's nothing, ... Sailor Mercury, Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Venus will take care of it, ... Sleep on, ..." Smiling at her friends mumbling Serenity got up, walking out of the room. Leaning against the door, she sighed, wiping at her brow.

"... That was close, ..." Suddenly frowning, she looked up. Yelling, shouting, and lots of it. She didn't want any of her friends to wake up, yet. That would mean a grumpy day, ... You can trust Jupiter and Mars to that." Frowning, she narrowed her eyes, stomping down the hallway.

"... Stop it, ..."

"... But it was your fault, ..."

"... *Please*, be quiet already, ..."

"Then just keep out of it!"

"... Shimatta! ..."

"... Baka! ..."

Hearing the loud echoes of voices, Serenity walked on. Seeing three young men coming to round the end of the corridor, she mustered them.

Two of them were facing each other off, throwing insults at one another. One was about as tall as herself or Venus. He had long hair, a bit like hers.

But more than white, it seemed to be silver. He had it falling into his face, most of it held back in a long ponytail. The other was slightly taller, though not that much. He had deeply black hair, fringes falling into his face, held back by a ponytail as well. His hair was thrashing around, as he was getting ready to jump at the other. The third one was seemingly keeping back from them. He was the tallest of the three. He too had long hair, this time brown, held back into a ponytail. His arms crossed across his chest, his head bowed slightly, he seemed rather frustrated. She would have been too, if she had been going around with *those* others. A deep frown crossing her face, she stopped a few steps before them.

"You there!" Hissing, a sign of threat showing, she pointed at them. "Here are *bedrooms*. And people are actually trying to sleep!!" The brown haired one sighed deeply, his lilac eyes accusing the other two. The two had stopped the insult and were looking at her.

"Well, Odango Atama, whatever you say." The black haired one had started smiling slightly, referring to her hairstyle. Blinking blankly at that comment, Serenity narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Shimatta!! Don't you make fun of my hairstyle as well!!" Trying to somehow keep her self-control, Serenity faced him, poking her finger into his chest accusingly. Her eyebrows furrowed, she followed him with small steps as he was slightly backing away, deep blue eyes staring down at her.

"Uhm, ... No need to get offended, Lady." Frowning at him, the silver haired fixed his light green eyes on the other.

"And 'lady' is so much better, ..." Staring sarcastically at him, he crossed his arms across his chest.

"Oh, be quiet, ..." The tall one sighed, finally pushing between them. Bowing in front of her, he mentioned at the other two.

"Please excuse my friends, Miss. We've been having small problems finding our way around here. May I ask who you are?" Turning away from the one she had been scolding, she mustered a smile at the bowing one. Curtsying the best she could with her nigh-gown, she spoke up.

"I am Princess Serenity of the Moon Kingdom, Princess of the Silver Millennium and heir to the throne of this galaxy." Noticing their rather silent reaction, she continued, muttering slightly. "... You aren't the first to have lost their way around here, ..." Sighing, she shook her head slightly. "At times I want to take up Luna's comment and ask mother to put big arrows all around the Palace, ..." The silver haired one, blinking slightly, noticed the quiet reactions with a frowning face.

"Oh, don't you two. We're pretty much used to it anyhow, ... And, who's Luna? Name someone the Latin name of Moon, ... Funny, ..." Smiling slightly, he mentioned partly at her, partly at the others.

"How am I supposed to understand that?" Serenity asked. Bowing before her, he grinned slightly.

"Let me introduce. Prin-"

"Serenity!!!" Jumping slightly in surprise, the Princess turned around. Noticing her blonde friend, she apologetically turned to the three men. Twisting her body back to Venus who had come running towards her, she twisted her friends' arm slightly.

"Ou-"

"You, keep quiet!" Hissing out at her friend, she held her arms tightly. "Jupiter and Mars are asleep. And I'm sure we'll all have a grumpy day along with them if they wake up at six 'o clock in the morning!"

"Eep! Excuse me Sere, ..." Smiling at her friend, she noted the men there. Nudging her ribs slightly, she giggled at her Princess.

"Say Sere, so you found the other lot? Cute!" Giggling, Venus brought that last comment into the boys' direction.

"Venus-sama no baka!" Staring at her friend bewildered, the young white haired woman brought her elbow harshly into the older woman's ribs.

Wincing, Venus frowned.

"Sere, ..."

"Please excuse my friend, she can be mentally insane at times, ...." Turning back to the young men, Serenity waved at the blonde beside her.

Clamping her hand over Serenity's mouth, Venus frowned.

"Am not!! If someone is mentally insane it would have to be you, Sere!"

"Venus! Be quiet!!" Freeing her mouth of Venus' hand, Serenity pushed her away slightly.

"Aah! Sere! You be quiet! You're the one always planning and plotting things, ..."

"And you're the one actually acting them out!"

"At least I don't do things like that around the Queen!"

"Venus, she's my *mother*"

"Well, anyways, I don't do anything bad around her!"

"... Maybe we should leave you to your problems, ..." Both women turning to three rather nervous looking men, sighed.

"Gomen nasai, ..."

"Yes, excuse us, ... Gome-, ... Sere?? You've been learning your languages! Good for you!!" Roughly patting the younger woman's back, Venus smiled genuinely. Stumbling forwards, Serenity looked back, slightly growling at her.

"Oh, you, ..." Her eyes narrowed, she turned away.

"Ah, Sere, don't be mad, ..." Giggling, Venus stood besides her, patting her shoulder.

"Hrmpf, ... All right, all right Venus, ... Now to continue our conversation from earlier, ..." Smiling at the boys' she leaned slightly against Venus.

"So Sere, you did find the other bunch, ..."

"What do you mean??" Two voices had asked. Sere looked up at the black haired one, giggling slightly. Them having spoken at the same time, she turned back to Venus.

"Yes, Venus, ... There's more?"

"Five girls, ..." Nodding at her Princess, Venus kept herself and her 'extra-weight' balanced.

"... Knew we should have stayed with them, ..."

"You know them?" Raising her eyebrow at the black haired one, she noted him nodding.

"We never finished introducing ourselves, ..." Playfully sticking out his tongue at the two girls, the silver haired winked at them.

"Yes, we're from the Red Cercis Kingdom. The Princes of the Stars Healer, Fighter and Maker."

"And those five were ou-"

"... Our Princess and the other four, ..."

"Yes, they're nice!" Venus suddenly interrupted, smiling.

"By the way Venus, why did *you* meet them?" Looking at her friend closely, Sere crossed her arms.

"Don't be envious. Artemis woke me up." Frowning, Venus shook her head.

"He and Luna, ... They're too loud, ..."

Staring at Venus' comment, Serenity's eyebrow twitched slightly.

"Not *that*, Serenity!!! ... Really, ..." Shaking her head at the Princess, she frowned. "They were walking down the corridor, talking loudly."

"Just wanted to check, ..." Mumbling, Serenity nodded slightly.

"Are you sure you don't want to continue your conversation privately?" Both girls looked up at the speaker. It had been the black haired one.

"No, no, really. ... Say, what may we call you?" Smiling at them sweetly, Serenity had brushed off the previous question while waving her hand.

"Hmm, I think it was somewhere along the lines of Sei-"

"Venus! Let them talk, ..." Frowning at her friend, she nudged her ribs slightly. Smiling at the black haired one, she stepped a bit away from Venus.

"Call me Seiya."

"Taiki."

"And Ya-"

"Yaten, no? I knew it Sere, see?" Frowning at her friend, Serenity shook her head.

"Venus, really, ..."

"Oh, what now! I let them talk, and that's what you asked for, wasn't it?"

"Venus, ..." Groaning, she turned back to three boys. "Excuse us, really. I did mention that she was mentally insane at times an-, ..."

"Sere!!" Ignoring Venus' abrupt interrupting, Serenity continued. "Well, and at times she can be annoying, no, Venus?" Grinning broadly, Serenity patted the other girls' shoulder. Without waiting for a response, Serenity went and grabbed the black haired ones hand. Venus blinked, but smiled afterwards. Grabbing the other two, Taiki and Yaten, she followed Serenity.

"Now to actually help you three out, ... Sorry it took us so long, ..."

*********

Sitting in a large room, the Queen Serenity sighed. With her were three women.

"Bu-, ... But then you shouldn't have called us at all! We should have stayed where we are, continuing to guard the galaxy's' boarders!"

Having abruptly stood up, a tall woman had banged her fist down on the large desk the Queen was sitting at. She seemed masculine, dirty blonde hair cut short at the nape of her neck. Green bewildered eyes were staring at the white haired woman.

"Uranus! Calm down! I know what I'm doing, ..."

"And that would be?"

"Uranus, sit down again, ..." One of the other woman, pulled her down again. She seemed mature, graceful. She had deep, aqua curls of hair, and watery, deep blue eyes.

"She's right Uranus. If we hadn't been told we might not have been on guard real guard at all." The woman talking, seemed to be mysterious.

She was tall, beautiful tanned skin making her features stand out slightly. Unlike the two other women, wearing simple dresses, she wore something that seemed to be much of an “outfit”. It was a tightly fitting, sleeveless, white bodysuit, a black 'sailor' collar topped with it.

A short, black skirt was held up by the bodysuit, a delicate chain, small, different keys hanging from it, placed around her hips. Walking a few steps forward, her high heeled, black boots making a slight clicking sound on the marble floor, she sighed.

"Uranus, at least control your temper, ..." Her oddly red eyes looked sternly at the other woman, her pine green hair, though held back loosely in a bun, swinging around her slightly.

"Pluto's right, Uranus, ..."

"Neptune, ..." Looking timidly at the aqua haired woman sitting besides her, the tall one from before sighed.

"Uranus, Neptune, Pluto. I did not want to worry you, ... I would have liked it better if no one had known anyhow, ..." Slumping back in the chair, the Queen sighed.

"Queen, ..."

"I know, ... You would have had to know anyhow, Pluto, ..." Smiling slightly at the senshi, the Queen rubbed her temples.

"I'm sorry, my Queen, ..."

"It's all right, Pluto. You have my permission to leave now. The Guardian of time shouldn't be tied up here." Sitting up straight, the white haired Queen, intertwined her fingers with each other under her chin. "But Pluto, please come again today. The Princess shall be glad to see you, ..." Looking up at woman, she curled her lips into a smile, yet not happy.

"I shall try, my Queen." Waving her hand slightly at the other women, the senshi of time turned her back swiftly to them. Lifting her one arm slightly into the air, she lifted the staff she held slightly crooked up into the air. It was made of a strange, silver material, about as long the senshi herself. It seemed to be formed timidly into a key shape, a scarlet orb set in the centre of a strange formation at the top of the staff. For a moment, the room seemed to be draped in silence. For a moment, everything was quiet. For just a moment, time seemed to be still, just still. Before the mysterious woman had disappeared from sight. Her eyes filled with concern, the Queen sighed, catching the other two's attention

"Queen, everything shall turn out all right, ... Please don't worry yourself with too many troubles now, ..." Smiling at the graceful woman, the older woman smiled, slight worry seeping through.

"I know Neptune, ... I know, ... But this concerns much, ... My galaxy, ..."

"We'll take good care, ... We won't let this pass without precautions, ..."

"But, you three, whatever you do, whatever precautions you have to take, do not bring the talismans together, ... Do not bring them together, ... She is not allowed to awaken, ... Not along with this enemy, ..." Her face having turned serious, the Queen had slightly turned away from them, mumbling the last, barely audible.

**********

All right!! And in the beginning I said I was going to pull my act together and start writing!! As if, ... I tell ya, don't believe me on subjects like that. So, I have a few things to say before I let ya off. *winks* Remember in the Prologue I said I'd only send it in to Sukiro's site? (To other readers: Yes, I said that) Well, I'm sending this story in to Cynthia's and Kotetsu's as well. Both are really sweet too. *winks*

Now, noticed that I said five girls beside Star Lights (Seiya, Taiki, Yaten)? Well, yes. I had to do this as to make that fit along with my story.

Therefore, I wasted no time as in creating Kakyuu's/Kakyoku's galaxy. If anybody wants to know what I thought of, mail me! I drew a picture of it and I can send you a scan, ... That also means new senshi, doesn't it? *winks yet again* You might be surprise what I thought of for that, ...

Well, I wanted to stop there (my current goal for each part is to get them as long as the Prologue; *groans* yet again, remind me for my next Story to keep the Prologue shorter; believe it or not, I'm planning two more stories, then I'll probably stop for sometime). Please read these along and wait for the next part. I'm sorry to keep you waiting so long. I'll start writing Part Three tomorrow (Wednesday, 19. July) *looks

back up* I'm rambling, ... Sorry!!
