Chapter 6: A Lie Unmasked

" Look out!" Piccolo yelled, but it was too late.

Everyone turned to look at Piccolo, but froze.

" What the hell?" Chi Chi yelled.

" Quiet woman. You're in CC living room," a deep voice growled.

" Vegeta?" Bulma questioned.

Vegeta, Gohan, Goku, and Kai were standing in the background by the couch in the large and overly furnished room. Bulma's eyes light up and she ran over to them, followed by all the others. Videl teared up and hugged Gohan tightly, causing him to blush deeply. Chi Chi was too busy scolding and hugging her husband to notice. Bulma just looked at Vegeta and smiled a cocky grin that was all too familiar. He merely scowled and turned to sit down on the couch.

" How did we get here?" Piccolo questioned above all the talk of the room, causing everyone to turn and listen, " I mean one minute we're at the stadium and now we're all here. How?"

" I can answer that," a soft feminine voice answered.

In a flash of bright light, a young girl with flowing white hair up in two heart shaped odangoes and a white capped outfit appeared. She tossed her bangs away from her eyes, revealing her star shaped insignia and slowly opened her eyes, stunning silver eyes that captivated the soul. She smiled at them all and took a step forward and swayed and started to fall.

Vegeta rushed forward to catch her before anyone could think and she fell perfectly in his arms. Everyone was stunned. No one could tell what was more surprising; Vegeta helping a woman or a strange girl's suddenly arrival. She looked flushed and her eyes were closed and she was breathing softly. She was sweating a lot and looked very worn out.

She opened her eyes slowly and looked at all the worried faces and blushed once she realized exactly who was holding her. She got out of his arms, but Vegeta protested. Her held onto her firmly, which shocked everyone, save one very bright Cosmos. She was helped to the couch were Vegeta sat by her side.

" Thank you Vegeta. I guess fighting Chaos and Buu and teleporting everyone here took more out of me than I thought," the white haired girl spoke.

" You beat Buu?!" Krillin burst out.

Cosmos nodded.

" Something's off about you. Just who exactly are you?" Piccolo, ever intelligent, asked.

" I'm afraid I can't tell you until our last guest appears."

" Last guest?"

" Right about now."

Instantly, a flash and a loud roar was heard in the center of the room and a machine appeared in the living room. A machine adorning the words `Capsule Corp.' appeared and a young man stepped out. He was as tall as Gohan and had lavender hair and was incredibly built and handsome. He jumped out of the machine and flashed everyone a smile.

" Hi everyone."

" Mirai Trunks!" Bulma screeched.

She tackled Mirai (I'm now referring to future Trunks as Mirai and the young Trunks as just Trunks) in a death grip of a hug and squeezed him tightly. Everyone burst out laughing but quickly greeted the young Saiyajin.

" Nice to finally meet the `young pest' Trista talks about who goes through the Time Gate as he pleases," Cosmos spoke from the couch where Vegeta was still sitting next to.

" You know Trista?" Mirai asked confused.

" Is Trista your girlfriend Mirai?" Goten asked absolutely confused.

" Not at all. She's the one who lets me come back here. How do you know of her?"

" I suppose now's a good as time as any to tell you who I am."

" Yes Cosmos I'm sure they would be pleased to hear of," Kai said.

" Oh please Kai. You still believe that bubble gum truth they told you," Cosmos spat.

" You mean the Kingdom and Endymion are lies?"

" I mean what they told you was a fairytale, something to help the universe sleep at night."

" Then why don't you clear the air. Tell us the truth," Videl replied.

" First, I suppose I should tell you the old truth. You see this story takes place over 1000 years ago in another dimension. In this dimension, all the planets at the time had life on them unified under one ruler, one body, the Silver Alliance, also known as the Silver Millennium.

The ruler of this Alliance was the mighty Queen Serenity of the Moon, the strongest queen to grace the universe. She was the highest ruler of the Silver Alliance and she was a great ruler, a kind caring person if one ever so existed.

At the time she had a daughter, Princess Serenity of the Moon. She was to be the heir of the Alliance when she came of age. The other planets also had rulers but most famous were the princess of the planets, Princess Rei of Mars, Princess Amy of Mercury, Princess Lita of Jupiter, Princess Mina of Venus, Princess Amara of Uranus, Princess Michelle of Neptune, Princess Trista of Pluto, and Princess Hotaru of Saturn. Each planet had a unique ability, or element, just for them. Mars was fire and spirit. Jupiter was thunder and lightning and nature. Mercury was ice and wisdom. Venus was love and beauty. Uranus was air and land and speed. Neptune was water and reflection. Pluto was time and space. Saturn was death and rebirth.

Each of these princesses were sent to the strongest planet, the Moon, to train to protect the royal moon family, also known as Lunarians. Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, and Venus were sent to protect the princess on the Moon. Uranus and Neptune were often at the palace but stayed on the outskirts of the solar system to protect it from invaders. Pluto was chosen to be the Guardian of Time and so spends her life at the Time Gates where she watches over all of Time. Saturn was strong to be awaken and so she was kept in eternal sleep until a danger too powerful required her to be awaken, since she contained the power to destroy all of life.

The Earth was the only planet at the time that wasn't in the Alliance. You see the earth was ruled by an arrogant and unwise king named King Endymion. He felt the Moon was too weak and too incompetent to rule the Alliance and so they remained on their own. It was forbidden for the Earthlings and Lunarians to mingle and meet on each other's ground.

What the King didn't plan on was his son, Prince Endymion, and the young Princess Serenity. You see Endymion and Serenity fell madly in love and nothing would keep to two apart. They would always sneak off and join each other whether it be on the Moon or Earth.

One day, a great evil came and attacked the Earth. A being named Queen Beryl came and attacked ant killed the Earth's strongest generals. In a desperate attempt, the Earth tried to kill her but it was utterly useless. Beryl was far too strong and in turn killed many of the people on Earth, including later on the King and Queen themselves.

Prince Endymion snuck up to the Moon, which was holding a grand ball. He came in the disguise of a tuxedo and a mask. He wove his way through the crowds and found his true love, Serenity, and went to her. there he told her of the end of Earth and that Beryl was coming here next. he wanted her and the Queen to flee and not return so they could be protected, but neither would leave.

Beryl then struck the Moon. She killed many of its people and soon all that remained were the Princesses, the Queen, and the Prince. The Queen was taken away deep in the palace to be protected and the Princess was also, but she couldn't bear to be away from Endymion. She ran out on the battlefield, where each of the Princesses transformed into Sailor Senshi, powerful fighters that allow them to harness their elements. Each senshi one by one was killed until only Serenity and Endymion remained,

Serenity was heartbroken and refused to let her Prince fall also. She ran to help him, who was currently fighting Beryl. She screamed out to him, but it only proved a distraction. Beryl charged Serenity and tried to attack her, but Endymion took the hit for her and was soon dead. In a heartbroken state, Serenity took Endymion's sword and killed herself, not wanting to be away from her true love.

Queen Serenity ran out and saw her daughter's death and broke apart. She saw how nothing had remained. The galaxy was doomed. So she took out her Imperial Silver Crystal, the strongest weapon in the galaxy, and destroyed Beryl, but at the cost of her life. She made in her last dying breath a wish that her daughter and everyone else be revived in the future and live normal lives until the call for the Sailor Senshi came again.

And in that final breath, she died. Her wish came true. Sailor Saturn was awaken and destroyed the galaxy and everyone in it, including herself. Sailor Pluto came in and used her powers of Time to return everyone to the future and the universe started anew. Everyone was reborn once more, where they fought as the Sailor Senshi once again," Cosmos finished.

Everyone was shocked, save one Prince of the Saiyajins and one Supreme Kai. Some of the girls were close to tears and the men were lacking of any words.

" You were all reborn again?" Yamcha asked, finally finding his voice.

" Yes. Pluto returned to her Gates were she will forever reside and all the people, save the Queen, were sent 1000 years in the future were they were reborn again. Soon evil returned to the galaxy and attacked once more. That is what caused the Sailor Senshi to remember and fight once more."

Cosmos stood and her star glowed bright on her staff and forehead. From the stars came bursts of different colored light, which materialized in the form of eight women. Each in a sailor fuku and a color unique to their planet. Each had their own unique look and personality. They just looked at the eight women and with a wave of Cosmos's hand a gold light shone and a man, with raven hair and deep sapphire eyes arose. He was handsome and they knew in an instant he was the Prince Endymion.

" Wow," Trunks and Goten said as they reached out to touch the senshi. Their hands passed through them.

" They are just images now. They are no longer there any more. They have moved on," Cosmos said sadly.

" But if these are the Sailor Senshi and he's Endymion, where's Princess Serenity?" Piccolo asked.

Cosmos faltered again and Vegeta grabbed her and helped her on the couch again. The images of the others instantly disappeared.

" You should know better than to push yourself since you are weak from fighting," Vegeta said with a slight sense of concern.

" I am grateful Vegeta once again, but this must be said. It must be known. I have only the heart to tell it once, so listen well. This is not for the faint of heart. I warn you all now."

Cosmos closed her eyes," It all began so long ago…"
