Anyway, I think that you have realized in the last chapter that while I have included all of the anime/manga/video game stories as I did in this story so far in which there is one more crossover in this story other than Naruto, Sailor Moon, DOA, Ninja Gaiden, Digimon, Sword Art Online, and Yu-Gi-Oh, but I’m not going to spoil it for you, everyone. While the main enemies are most likely going to be Kaguya, Sasuke, and Orochimaru, there are going to be plenty of other enemies in the future. I’m still not solid on all of the romantic couplings yet. Now, before I start this chapter, I would like to give thanks, credit, and dedicate this and the following chapter to Fanfiction author, Ryan L.

Sailor Moon Shippuden GT: Grand Tour

Chapter 6: The New Stars and Dragons Cometh

Sasuke Uchiha is looking down at stump that used to be his sword arm slowly seem to regenerate itself while an elite member of the Black Spider ninja clan comes over to him.

The Black Spider ninja tells Sasuke, “I heard that you had a ‘complication’ in your mission to find your former comrade via the Moon Princess.”

Sasuke says, “She proved… more of a problem than expected.”

The Black Spider ninja says, “One must be careful with one with determination, they are a dangerous animal.”

Sasuke retorts, with a glare, “Like I am?”

The Black Spider ninja says, “I’m not saying that you don’t have that kind of determination. How could you have gotten as powerful as you are now, Sasuke-dono? However, you can’t underestimate the determination of your enemies or else you will end up as you are now.”

Sasuke responds, “Point taken.”

The Black Spider ninja responds, “I will take my leave of you to your healing.”

After the Black Spider ninja left, Sasuke thinks about his battles with Sailor Moon and Sailor Sun and he thinks, with a sneer, “Sakura, you and that Moon Princess won’t stand in my way! I have worked too hard for my dream of a new world free of the darkness that tinted it! You really think that ideals will get you anywhere? Ha! Our world is filled with corruption, greed, darkness, death, and hatred and it will keep going on and on in an endless cycle unless it is destroyed! Only through the destruction of such things and the source of these things will true peace and better world be made! That means the destruction of the current ninja system and recreating the world into a better one! And there are now three things in my way: Naruto, the Moon Princess, and finally, you, Sakura.” A scene plays in Sasuke’s mind as it shows Indra and Asura fighting each other, but Sailor Sun is also there and she is fighting against Indra in which at one point, Sailor Sun looks poses to take down Indra himself. With that memory and what Sasuke experienced earlier, Sasuke knows that Sailor Sun has the potential to take him down despite she only managed to get him by surprise since he had no knowledge of her abilities as a Sailor Scout, but he is no fool. With their ‘history’ and this potential, Sasuke knows that Sakura/Sailor Sun has the potential to take him down like Naruto and he knows that she won’t hesitation like in the last fight. He knows that she won’t rest until he is dead to ensure ‘Naruto’s path’ is made to be the path to peace in the Elemental Countries and he and his clan, the clan of the Uchiha, is nothing more than a page in the history books. Knowing this, Sasuke knows that there is one choice: Along with Naruto, Sakura must die once and for all.

(That evening; Within Tokyo)

Within her mansion of the Outer Sailor Scouts, Amara, Michelle, Hotaru, and Trista are discussing the morning and afternoon events including the revelations and appearance of Sakura Motomiya AKA the ‘reborn’ Sakura Haruno as Sailor Sun, said to be the most powerful Sailor Soldier in the universe at the time of the Silver Millennium.

Michelle asks, “So, Sailor Sun’s mother was Queen Serenity’s sister?”

Trista says, “Yes. She was the younger twin sister of Queen Serenity and feel in love with the Sun Kingdom and its ruler. It united the two kingdoms more than ever before since they were equal in all sorts of the term. The Golden and Silver Alliances were the two great alliances of kingdoms in the universe, but unlike the Moon Kingdom after the first Moon Queen, the princesses of the Solaris Kingdom, the first born ones, were always the ones to become the Sailor Soldier of the Sun. Compared to Sailor Sun, all of us, the Sailor Soldiers of the Silver Alliance, let’s just say that were ‘sub-par’ compared to Sailor Sun.”

Amara says, with an annoyed expression, “Please tell me that you are joking.”

Trista asks, with a kind smile, “Do you wish for me to tell you about badly she defeated you when she felt that we were unfit to protect our princess?”

Amara says, with a groan, “I rather not.”

Hotaru asks, “Amara-papa is one of the strongest, how badly did Sailor Sun beat her in the Silver Millennium?”

Trista responds, with a kind smile, “You really don’t want to know, Firefly. Let’s just say that it wasn’t ‘pleasant’ and that’s being kind.”

Michelle says, with a giggle, “It seems like our princess’ cousin made quite an impression on you.”

Trista says, with a kind smile, “And on the ground in which Sailor Sun made sure that Amara made a literal impression on the ground.” Amara’s, Michelle’s, and Hotaru’s eyes widen at the implication of Trista’s words.

Amara says, with a growl, “I knew there was a reason that she pissed me off when I saw her.”

Michelle gives a kind giggle and Hotaru says, “Trista-mama, I think you are right to say that we have to make sure that the two of them don’t fight in Sailor Scout forms. I can’t help to get this awful feeling that pure chaos will reign if we let them fight.”

Trista says, with a nod, “Yes. Remember, they are similar and also opposite at the same time. Sailor Moon is the moon and Sailor Sun is the sun. Sailor Moon is the yin and Sailor Sun is the yang.”

Amara says, “The two of them together represent balance and if the two of them fight, the ‘balance’ is thrown off and with the sheer power of their crystals, the amount of chaos that they will produce will be massive.”

Trista says, with a nod, “It’s true. However, the paradox is if one of them goes ‘out of control’ only the other can stop them. If our princess does indeed ‘go off the edge’, only Sailor Sun can stop her and vice-versa. But the worst case scenario is if a ‘corrupting force’ gets control of both of them. With the power of the ‘sun and the moon’, they could have a power to rival the Cosmos Crystal and you know how powerful that is, Amara.”
Amara says, with a snort, “And that means that our job is multiple fold: Get our princess to her senses, make sure that Sailor Sun and Sailor Moon don’t battle each other and clash with their powers and crystals, and make sure that whatever is corrupting her doesn’t get their hands on Sailor Sun.”

Hotaru asks, “But why would Sailor Moon’s own Silver Millennium father…?”

Trista says, “He isn’t… Something else is corrupting him and the instant that our hime showed off a Duel Dragon, I know this to be true. We have to find what it is and snap him out of it because it might be the only way to snap our princess out of the corruption that’s slowly growing within her.”

Michelle asks, “What makes you say that?”

Trista says, “I fear that she will drag Naruto down into the darkness with her. However, I believe that our long gone prince has left something inside of him.”

Amara asks, surprised, “What?”

Trista says, “Remember, he transferred the Golden Crystal to him, but I think that he also transferred his remaining power into him and it is trying to hold back whatever ‘corruption’ has gotten into our Moon Princess and that’s why he isn’t back on his feet.”

Hotaru asks, “So, the ‘remnants of Darien’s spirit’ is protecting him?”

Trista says, with a nod, “For now, but if our princess finds a way to awaken him, Prince Endymon’s spirit won’t be able to do anything.”

Michelle asks, “If that Duel Dragon is part of the ‘corruption’ of our princess and her Silver Millennium father, why does Sakura have one?”

Trista says, “It seems like her will magnified to purify the Duel Dragon or her will prevented the shadow miasma from infecting her.”

Amara says, “Our newest Sailor Scouts seem to have a history with both Naruto and Sasuke in their past lives as Asura and Indra and she has a ‘thing’ against Indra. Personally, I knew that Uchiha bastard was no good.”

Trista tells Amara, “While he may be following a path that will cause chaos, he firmly that his path will bring peace, but he is mistaken into trying to create a ‘world without darkness’. In life, light brings shadows and shadow bring out light. It is a natural way of things. The proper path to peace is balance and he can’t see that. Naruto is sees the possibilities while Sasuke does not. However, this firmness in belief in his path makes him really dangerous.”

Amara says, with a nod, “No joke. He believes in this path with a passion and that makes him all the more dangerous. I have to agree with new Sailor Scout on Earth and he is too much of a danger to remain alive. We should follow her advice and take him down forever.”

Michelle says, “Especially since he has gained the enemies of our ally, the Hayabusa clan.”

Amara says, “He won’t be easy. He has two years to enhance his powers, but then again, thanks to Naruto’s friends from Gaea, we have done very well to master our chakra based powers and our ninja abilities.”

Trista says, “True, but remember, he has the power of Hagoromo… His COMPLETE power in which I suspect that even cutting off his arm won’t stop him. In fact, he might have found a way to regenerate his arm with the Black Spider clan using some kind of Ninpo in which we have to assume that he knows Ninpo too.”
Amara says, with a nod, “Good point. Sailor Sun got to him because he had no idea of her power.”

Trista says, “And the war of Asura and Indra included her. The cycle continued on because she wasn’t there to end it, but since the ‘third player’ has returned, the cycle will end. Sakura is the ‘key’ to the final battle between Sasuke and Naruto and she will prove the factor that will end the cycle.”

Hotaru asks, “In Naruto’s victory since she is on his side?”

Trista says, “Not necessary, Firefly. Even though she might be on Naruto’s side, per say, she may prove the key to his defeat as well as his victory.”

Amara says, “Based on what ‘door’ she unlocks.”

Michelle says, “We can only hope that she unlocks the right door.” Michelle says, with a smile, “Anyway, how are our guests taking this?”

Amara says, “Tenten loves the fact that Sailor Sun is using swords and would love to get her hands on the swords that Sailor Sun used along with our princess’ twin blades.”

Michelle says, with a giggle, “Not surprising that one of the museums that she visited was a weapon’s museum.”

Amara says, with a sigh, “Ino feels that Sakura is full of it and won’t accept the fact that while it only has been two years with a brief time that she spent as a baby, Sakura might be a different person and being the chief medical officer of the Japanese Data Squad is proof of it in her mind.”

Trista says, “I don’t think that Sakura-dono has regained her full memories of either her Silver Millennium life or her time as Sakura Haruno. Her phoenix power did make her go through a complete rebirth and we must remember, it is a power that Kaguya will seek.”

Amara says, “Another reason to keep a close eye on them as we warned her current family and comrades in Data Squad.”

Michelle asks, “What about Hinata-chan?”

Amara asks Michelle, “You sensed it too?”

Trista says, “We, all, did. Her cosmic power has been awakened… probably by Sailor Moon and she knows about her.”

Amara asks Trista, with a serious glare, “Trista, how much are you keeping from us?”

Trista says, with a sigh, “Until I think that the time is right, but with the universe in its current situation, I’m not sure when the time is right to tell you these things. However, what I do know is that another Sailor Scout is responsible for awakening Sailor Sun.”

Hotaru asks, surprised, “Another Sailor Scout? Who?”

Trista says, “I can’t say and I mean, I can’t in which the Gates of Time won’t tell me anything, but I don’t think that it is the chaotic situation, it must be one of the Sailor Scouts can that prevent me from seeing them through Gates of Time.”

The other Outer Scouts are surprised and Amara asks, shocked, “Is that possible?”

Trista says, with a nod, “Yes, it is. There are a few Sailor Scouts that can prevent even the Gates of Time from finding them if they allow it, but it is this fact that allows me to know who awakened Sailor Sun, Amara.”

Hotaru asks, “You do?”

Trista says, with a plain tone, “She is a Sailor Scout that was best friends with Princess Serenity since they were children, but grew apart as their duties take precedence. And she is a very powerful Sailor Scout since she is the Guardian of the Star Seeds from birth and death.”

Amara asks, amazed, “Guardian of the Star Seeds?”

Trista responds, with a plain tone, “Her name… is Sailor Nebula.” Amara’s, Michelle’s, and Hotaru’s eyes widen as Trista discusses about Sailor Nebula, but on the meanwhile, elsewhere in the mansion, Hinata is in her room wearing a simple violet see-through nightgown, but she isn’t wearing a bra or panties. She is lying down on the bed and she is thinking about Naruto in which she remembers the promise of Sailor Moon, who she found out was her sister in her previous life as Princess Freyja Serenity, younger fraternal twin sister of Princess Serenity and the Sailor Solider of the Stars known as Sailor Star, a very powerful Sailor Scout. Some of her memories of her previous life come into her mind and it feels her with warmth as she remembers the good times with her and the Sailor Scouts as well as her times with Asura causing her to blush. However, her daydreaming turns more ‘erotic’ as she imagines herself in ‘princess form’ with Princess Serenity joining Naruto in a three-way make out session and it causes her to touch herself on the chest and in-between her legs.

Hinata moans out, “Serenity-onee-chan… Naruto-kun…” Just then Hinata hears a tapping on her window and she wakes up in which she looks out to the sliding window doors to her porch to see Sailor Moon, in Legendium Sailor Scout form, standing on her porch. Hinata leaps to her feet and opens the door.

Sailor Moon says, with a smile, “From what I remember, I didn’t think that you would be so bold, little sister.” Hinata then looks over herself, blushes, and she then realizes something else.

Hinata asks, nervously, “You were…?”

Sailor Moon says, with a smile, “I didn’t know that my sweet little sister had such a ‘naughty side’.” Hinata blushes madly and Sailor Moon says, with a weak smile, “Don’t blame you. I was the same way with… you know.”

Hinata tells Sailor Moon, “Serenity, I…”

Sailor Moon hugs Hinata, “Hey, it wasn’t your fault. I’m just glad to meet family again.” Hinata hugs Sailor Moon back and Hinata can’t help to feel warm feeling like she is with family flows throughout her body. Sailor Moon actually feels that same feeling and she feels that a piece of herself has come back.

They release from the hug and Hinata asks, “What are you doing here?”

Sailor Moon responds, with a smile, “Why do you think? I’m here to bring you to Naruto.”

Hinata asks, “To Naruto-kun?”

Sailor Moon tells Hinata, “And I think that I need to bring you to him. He has been going in and out of ‘sleep’ and I think that you are the key to wake him up completely.”

Hinata asks, “Wake him up completely?”

Sailor Moon tells Hinata, with a nod, “Yes, you love him in this life and your precious life. That bond will bring him back to us.” Sailor Moon asks, in a pleading tone, “Come with me and help me wake him up, please?” Hinata looks at Sailor Moon’s eyes, seeing the need in her eyes, and her love for Naruto takes away any hesitation due to Sailor Moon’s current ‘condition’.

Hinata responds, “I will, Serenity-onee-chan. I love Naruto-kun and I will do anything for him.”

Sailor Moon responds, with a warm smile, “Thank you, Hinata.” Hinata and Sailor Moon share another warm hug and Sailor Moon says, “Please get your stuff especially your new broach.”

Just then a female voice says, “Can any family member join in this reunion or is this situation a private party?” Sailor Moon and Hinata whip to the source of the voice to see Sailor Sun floating above them.

Hinata asks, “Sakura… Sailor Sun?”

Sailor Moon asks, “What are you doing here?”

Sailor Sun responds, “What do you think Sailor Moon?”

Sailor Moon then says, with a smile, “That’s okay. Please come with me and Hinata.”

Sailor Sun asks, “Huh?”

Sailor Moon then responds, “I need your help… to give birth to Rini.”

Sailor Sun asks, surprised, “What?”

Sailor Moon tells Sailor Sun, “I need to give birth Rini soon. She can’t stay just a star seed forever. I learned about a special potion that will accelerate pregnancy that your… Sakura Haruno’s teacher, Lady Tsunade, created to aid pregnant kunoichi to make sure kunoichi don’t suffer miscarriage due to injuries on the battlefield.”

Sailor Sun’s eyes widen and she says, “Serenity, are you insane? I do know of that potion and all of the women gave birth successfully and with perfectly healthy children, but they, the mothers, died in the process.”

Sailor Moon says, “But dad told me that all of the women that died since they had strong bodies, but they were suffering from immense spiritual and emotional weakness and Lady Tsunade believes that’s the case.” Sailor Moon says, with a determined glare, “I won’t die! For Rini’s sake, for Naruto’s sake, and the for the universe’s sake, I won’t die, not here and not now, Sakura.”

Hinata says, amazed, “Serenity-onee-chan…”

Sailor Sun is also surprised and Sailor Moon asks, “So, Sailor Sun, are you really a doctor?”

Sailor Sun’s eyes widen, her expression gains a scowl, and she responds, “Damn you, Serenity. You already know that answer.” Sailor Sun tells Sailor Moon, “Fine, Sailor Moon. I’ll help you, but only for Rini’s sake.”

Sailor Moon says, with a nod, “Thank you.” Sailor Sun just scoffs and crosses her arms in reply in which Sailor Moon smiles at her.

(Later on that evening; Within Hayabusa Village)

Later on that evening, we are inside of the Hayabusa Village where Tsunade and Minato are together in a bedroom, but both of them are locked in a passionate kiss, they are in the nude, and Minato’s hard rod is buried deep in Tsunade’s pussy.

When they release the kiss, Minato says, “This looks familiar.”

Tsunade responds, with a smile, “This is after you had been completely been revived by your gaki and my new step-son, you went on a rant against the Leaf for what they did to him and blew up Sarutobi-sensei three times before he returned to the afterlife. You then went into a bar and got drunk.”

Minato says, with a blush, “Not one of my best moments.”

Tsunade retorts, “I kind of understood how you felt and felt that I had been part of the problem as a failure. However, I managed to hold my alcohol better especially since Kaguya reserved all of the damage to my body by my seal and more when she reserved my age to use me against Naruto.”

Minato says, “Then you got us both ‘hopped up’ on an herb that sent our stamina and our libido right through the roof.”

Tsunade responds, with a nervous smile, “In my defense, I thought that it was the one to help sobering a person up.”

Minato says, “And it all led to this.”

Tsunade says, with a warm smile, “And now, our gaki is the heir to my clan now.” Tsunade says, with a giggle, “And personally, I wouldn’t mind for the gaki to be in the CRA. After all of the crap in his life, I would love it if he was ‘covered’ in lovely woman that love him endlessly.”

Minato says, “I’m surprised that you would say that, Tsunade.” Tsunade just kisses Minato on the lips in a deep passionate kiss, not knowing that she had bitten down on some kind of herb causing some kind of liquid go down both their throats. On the meanwhile, Sailor Moon is on the roof on their ‘house’ in the village with a bottle in her hands.

Sailor Moon thinks in her mind, “Soon, Rini…” Sailor Moon then senses something and whips out her specter in which she takes to the air and spins around to see Ryu in front of her.

Ryu says, “You are getting some bad habits, my lady.”

Sailor Moon says, “Sorry.” Sailor Moon then teleports away as Shizune arrives on the scene.

Shizune says, “Ryu-dono, Lady Serena…”

Ryu responds, “I already know, Shizune-san.”

Shizune says, with a nod of understanding, “I see.”

Ryu asks, “What did she take?”

Shizune says, “Something that could be very dangerous.” Shizune then explains about the potion to accelerate the birthing process for kunoichi and its deadly side effects.

When she is done, Ryu says, “I see. And I know why she wants it.”

Shizune asks, “Why would see want it?”

Ryu responds, “To get her daughter. Remember, before he died, Darien managed to combine his ‘essence’ with Sailor Moon to create Rini’s star seed. If Sailor Moon puts her daughter’s star seed into her womb, she will become pregnant with her, but in order to make sure of her birth, she will use the potion to accelerate it.”

Shizune tells Ryu, “But Ryu-dono, the potion could kill her.”

Ryu replies, “In Sailor Moon’s current ‘condition’, I doubt it. She is determined to protect Naruto and she can’t do it dead. She will herself to live. You can trust me on that one. Sailor Moon has a powerful will.”

Shizune asks, amazed, “Are you sure, Ryu-dono?”

Ryu responds, with a nod, “Absolutely certain, Shizune-san.”

(Elsewhere; during that same evening)

In the evening hours, Sakura groans as she slowly wakes up and she then looks down in which she is wearing a pink version of Serena’s dress that she wore while she was a captive of the Negamoon/Prince Diamond on Nemesis.

Sakura asks, “What the fuck is this?” Sakura’s eyes widen and she looks to see her broach with a duplicate together on a table in which she gets them.

Geminios’ voice then booms, “I see that you are awake, Arinna.” Sakura whips her head to the source of the voice to see Geminios walking towards him.

Sakura responds, “So, it is true? I see that you are alive, Uncle Geminios.”

Geminios tells Sakura, “I see that you remember me, Arinna.”

Sakura replies, “It’s Sakura now.”

Geminios says, “You will always be my niece, Arinna, to me. How is Hercules and Theia?”

Sakura replies, plainly, “Just discovering their identities now, but they are now Davis and Jun now.”

Sakura winches and Geminios tells Sakura, “You are going to be weak in front of the Eclipse Crystal, Arinna.”

Sakura asks, her eyes widen, “Eclipse Crystal?” Sakura thinks in her mind, “The Black Crystal… the crystal of the Black Moon family… the crystal that represents the dark side of the moon… and this crystal will make it impossible for me to transform… Damn! There goes my idea of making sure that Rini isn’t corrupted and getting Naruto out of here.”

Sailor Moon enters the room and she says, “Sakura, you are okay.”

Sakura responds, “I’m tougher than you think.”

Sailor Moon says, taking out the potion, “I have gotten the potion. I went after you collapsed the instant that you got here.”

Sakura asks, “How did you steal it?”

Sailor Moon says, with a glare, “Why would I hurt any of Naruto’s friends? I managed to sneak in… and Shizune caught me when I got my heel stuck in a hole in the floor.” Sakura gives a snicker at Sailor Moon who gives an annoyed look in reply.

Sakura asks, “Where is Hinata?”

Sailor Moon retorts, with a smirk, “Where do you think?”

Sakura thinks in her mind, “Dumb question.” Joining up with Hinata, she is dressed in a silver and blue version of Princess Serenity’s dress with a golden crescent moon sigil as she looks over Naruto, who is still in his ‘deep sleep’.

Hinata gently strokes his hair and she says, pleadingly, “Naruto-kun… please come back… Serenity and I… we need you… I need you… Naruto-kun…” Within Naruto’s mind, Prince Endymon’s spirit is keeping Naruto in the current condition to protect him from the ‘dark energy’ coursing through his body in which he can sense his beloved getting ‘corrupted’ by it. However, Naruto hears Hinata’s voice and moans as he wakes up at least in his mind scape.

Naruto groans out, weakly, “Hinata…”

Prince Endymon asks, surprised, “What?”

Naruto groans out, weakly, “Hinata…”

Naruto stands on his feet and Prince Endymon says, “No, Naruto! Don’t! You can’t! The darkness will take you! I need you! We all need you to save my Meatball Head! I can’t let you fall to darkness like I did before!” Prince Endymon uses his strength to keep Naruto within the protective shield that keeps the darkness from corrupting his mind.

Naruto moans out, weakly, “Hinata… Hinata-chan… calling for me…” Just then images of Sailor Moon also come to his mind and he moans out, “Hinata-chan… calling me… Moon-chan… needs me… must go…”

Prince Endymon yells out, holding Naruto back, “No, Naruto! Not now! The darkness…!!”

Naruto, his eyes still glazed over, roars out, “Let me go! They need me!” Naruto then whips around, bashes Prince Endymon in the face, and creates a powerful wind that blasts Prince Endymon away.

Prince Endymon screams out, “No, Naruto…!!” However, his voice fades away as he fades away into the deepest shadows of his mind and on instinct, Naruto races towards the sound of Hinata’s voice. Back in the ‘real world’, Hinata looks over his sleeping form with a pleading look.

Hinata tells Naruto, “I love you, Naruto-kun. I always win and I’m so sorry that I never told you that. I should have told you that sooner and been for you there when you were in pain when the village wronged you.” Hinata then remembers what happened with the bullies after Naruto saved her, but got beat up in the process as well as plenty of the mistreatment that Naruto got for containing Kurama in which a ‘dark anger’ forms in her mind and heart. Hinata tells Naruto, “Please come back. I missed you, my love.” Hinata then kisses Naruto on the lips and after she does so, Naruto slowly opens his eyes and looks at Hinata, who gasps in amazement.

Naruto says, weakly, “You… You are…”

Hinata asks, in a hopeful tone, “Do… Do you know me, Naruto-kun?”

Naruto responds, weakly, “How could I… ever forget you… Hinata-chan… believe it…” Hinata then sheds tears from her eyes and she gently brings him into a sitting position in which she hugs Naruto and while not completely understanding what’s happening with him suffering amnesia among other things, but he returns the hug. Rejoining Sakura, she, Geminios, and Serena are inside of a massive and luxurious hot spring room.

Geminios asks Serena, “Now, are you sure, Serenity?”

Serena responds, “I’m amazed that Rini’s star seed remained intact after so long, but I can’t risk her any longer. I need to give her life now.”

Sakura says, holding the potion, “You know, Meatball Head, I am still fucking against this. This potion is deadly.”

Serena replies, “I know, but I want… I need my daughter back. She was a pain in the ass, but she is still my daughter. And I don’t intend to die. I made Darien-kun a promise and I intend to keep it. And that means that I intend to live for our universe’s sake and for my daughter’s sake. None of my enemies defeated me and I’m not going to get my butt kicked by a stupid potion.” Serena then starts to strip down in which Geminios turns around, not wanting to see his daughter naked for various and obvious reasons, and when she is done, Serena shows perfect female super-model body with a close to Tsunade-sized bust.

Sakura thinks in her mind, “Shit! I knew that Lunarian women are supposed to be the most gorgeous women in the universe, but my Meatball Headed cousin really knows how to take it to the next level.” Sakura puts the potion in the sub-space pocket for a moment, takes the star seed from Geminios, and inserts it into Serena’s womb in which she immediately takes out the potion. Sakura says, plainly, “I still don’t like this.”

Serena responds, “I understand, Sakura.”

Sakura tells Serena, “I still plan to stop you.”

Serena replies, “I know.” Serena takes the potion and drinks the potion in which she hands it back. Serena licks her lips and she says, “I thought that it would taste really lousy, but it isn’t good… It is just… plain.”

Sakura says, with a plain tone, “You won’t think that in a minute or two.” Serena gives a confused look, but after several minutes, Serena starts to feel the same kind of morning sickness that pregnant women feel in the early stages of pregnancy and Sakura brings over a garbage bin in which Serena starts to throw up a lot in. After an hour of drinking the potion, Serena groans out as her waist starts to expand like a balloon does when getting filled with air/helium.

Serena yells out, strongly and angrily, “What the fuck?! I’m expanding like a balloon!”

Sakura tells Serena, “That’s stage two. The next hour, you are going to expand, get cravings, and mood swings!”

Serena tells Sakura, grabbing her by the ends of her dress, “Next time, fucking warn me of such things! Now, I’m getting a stupid craving for a lot of sweets especially cotton candy! Get me some right now!” Sakura growls, but she gets out some cotton candy from her subspace pocket and she eats the sweets like Naruto eats ramen.

Sakura thinks in her mind, “This seems oddly familiar.” Just then a memory of Naruto eating ramen at his favorite ramen stand comes to mind and Sakura can’t help to smile at that.

Serena yells out, excitedly, “Mmm, this is great! This must be the best cotton candy in the universe!”

Sakura thinks in her mind, with a sigh, “Major mood swings.” With another hour of mood swings and a lot of eating, Serena’s belly has expanded to the point that she is in the final stages of pregnancy. With the third hour, Serena grunts as she stumbles in which Sakura takes Serena into her arms.

Serena says, “I… I think my water broke.”

Sakura retorts, “What was your first clue?” Shortly afterwards, Sakura escorts Serena into the water and Serena grunts out in pain in which Sakura says, “Easy, Serena.”

Serena yells out, angrily, “You feel this pain and then you can tell me to take it easy, Sakura!”

After ten minutes, Sakura tells Serena, “Okay, Serena, it’s time! Push! Push!”

Serena groans out in pain, “I’m pushing! I’m pushing! If Darien-kun wasn’t dead, I would kick his ass for putting me through this!” Serena screams out and shouts as she goes through the birthing process and with one scream, a baby comes out of her womb in which Sakura immediately performs what left of the birthing process and gets her out of the water while wrapping a towel around the baby, who is a girl with familiar pink hair and ruby red eyes. Soon after, the baby girl starts to cry immediately.

Sakura says, with a kind smile, “That’s right. You’re here, Rini. You are finally born, Rini.” Rini cries in Sakura’s arms and Serena gives a great sigh as she starts to relax in which she winches while she feels an immense drain due to the potion, but due to her strong will and need to live for the sake of the world and her daughter with the need to protect Naruto added into it, the potion drains her immensely, but her will and her powers keep Serena very much alive.

Serena says, very weakly, “I… I did it… I beat it…”

Sakura looks at Serena and she thinks, with a warm smile, “She did it! She beat the potion! She’s alive!”

Just then a male voice booms out, “Moon-chan!” Immediately, Geminios looks to see Naruto and Hinata run into the room.

Sakura yells out, “Hey, pal! It…!!” Sakura then looks to see Naruto and Hinata and she thinks, her eye widening upon seeing Naruto, “Naruto!”

Naruto looks at Sakura and he asks, “Who… Who are you?” Sakura, even knowing that Naruto may most likely be suffering memory problems, stumbles a bit upon hearing those words and her heart felt stabbed, but she regains her focus as Rini cries in her arms.

Sakura tells Rini, gently rocking her, “Easy, Rini. Don’t worry, your mommy is all right.” Sakura tells Hinata, “Hinata, get Serena covered up and into bed!” When Naruto notices that Serena is nude, he yelps as he covers his eyes, but he stumbles and falls to the ground on his bottom causing Sakura to giggle. On the meanwhile, Hinata rushes over to Serena, gently picks her weakened form up, covers her with a towel that was left out for this event, and Hinata gently helps Serena out in which Naruto immediately goes over to help her.

Serena says, weakly, “Naruto… you… you are finally awake…”

Naruto says, with a smile and nod, “Believe it, Moon-chan. I’m not going anywhere.” Serena smiles warmly as she is taken away while Sakura tightly holds newborn baby Rini in her hands in which she wonders if she take her away for a moment, but Sakura feels that she can’t take away a child from her parent for one thing and for another, with the Black Crystal making her unable to transform since she is Sailor Sun and the real Black Crystal is known as the Eclipse Crystal thus making her ability to access her powers hard if not highly improbable at the moment.

(The following day; Back in Juuban)

Returning to Juuban Park, the currently active Data Squad members of the Odiaba Digidestined, Davis, Tai, Matt, Sora, Mimi, Joe, and Izzy, and their Digimon partners as they go over to meet with the rest of the Digidestined, Kari, Cody, Ken, and Yolei, with their Digimon partners, who are with Kazuto, Asuna, Rika, Keiko, Tsuboi, Suguha, and Andrew.

Davis says, annoyed, “What an idiot!”

Matt tells Davis, “That’s politicians for you, Davis!”

Tai says, “Yeah, no joke! With current events and the SAO incident still a part of everyone’s minds, adding in Sugou’s asshole work, politicians want to take advantage of what happened to put their policy to work!”

Matt says, “Take a few nutjobs and a good thing gets turned into something that has to be controlled by the government!”

Izzy says, “You can’t exactly be surprised by this.”

Tsuboi asks, “What’s up?”

Tai says, with a snort, “Politicians at work, Tsuboi-san.”

Matt says, with an annoyed tone, “They are using this event to push their laws through the government.”

Kazuto says, “I’m guessing tighter controls on VRMMO.”

Davis says, “Government controls. And I’m hearing from Commander Sampson that they want to turn the Full-Dive technology into a military weapon like download the minds of their agents into cyberspace to take control of a target’s computers and such to gather information.”

Matt says, annoyed, “Or blow up his house.”

There are gasps and Suguha says, shocked, “No way!”

Rika says, shaking her head, “Oh, boy.”

Yolei says, “That’s nuts!”

Davis tells Yolei, “Tell me about Yolei. And there is even worse. They are trying to improve the technology to create pure human-like AI programs by downloading people’s minds and finding ways to copy them.”

Andrew says, “I’m not surprised by this.”

Rika yells out, angrily, “That just wrong! They are taking the nightmare that we have suffered for two years away from home, families, and friends, here, and using it to advance their own selfish gains!”

Kazuto says, “Sugou did mention that plenty of people were interested in research, so, it isn’t surprising that ‘certain people’ wouldn’t be interesting in replicating our prison.”

Asuna, still in her wheelchair due to the fact that it only has been weeks since she finally returned to the real world, says, “This is just horrible. They are using our suffering for their own gain.”

Kazuto tells Asuna, with a warm smile, “Don’t worry, Asuna. We’ll make sure that no one will have to suffer what we went through.”

Asuna responds, warmly, “I know that you won’t Kirito-kun… I mean Kazuto-kun.”

Just then a voice rings out, “Hey, it’s Kirito!” Everyone looks to see Yusei, Akiza, Jack, Crow, Leo, and Luna coming up with Leo and Luna walking around on their own through in an unsteady manner.

Rika asks, amazed, “Hey, it’s that Rua and Ruka?”

Leo says, “That’s us, but I’m Leo!”

Luna says, with a warm smile, “And I’m Luna.”

Leo says, excitedly, “Oh, wow! Hey, Kirito, nice to see you, again!”

Akiza asks Leo, looking at Kirito, “So, this is the Kirito that you told us about?”

Luna says, with a nod, “That’s right, Akiza. He was known as the ‘Black Swordsman’, an elite member of the ‘clearers’, the top level players that cleared the floors and took on the bosses to get to the top and free all of us from Sword Art Online.”

Leo says, “Hey, Luna, we were part of the elite teams too.”

Luna says, “In a year, Leo. We were mid-level players until we really managed to level up and get really good weapons from Liz.”

Rika says, with a smirk, “I have to admit that Rua’s Power Spear and Ruka’s Fairy Dagger was some of my best work other than Asuna’s rapier and Kirito’s Dark Repulser.”

Leo tells Asuna, “Nice to see you, again, Lady Asuna!”

Asuna responds, with a smile, “Nice to see you, too, Rua… I mean Leo-san. And please call me Asuna or Asuna-san.”

Jack says, “It take it that you know each other well.”

Yolei says, awe-struck, “Oh, wow! The full Team Five Ds team! The winners of the World Racing Grand Prix!”

Crow says, with a grin, “That’s us!”

Jack says, “Anyway, we need to discuss something with you or should I say, the girl with the dragon that looks like Akiza’s Black Rose Dragon.”

There are plenty of surprised looks and Davis asks, with a serious tone, “What do you want with my sister?”

Yusei says, “Whoa! Easy. We just want to ask where she got that card from.”

Just then a female voice asks, “Why is that?” Everyone then looks to see Jun, Sakura, Lopmon, Renamon, the Leaf ninja, minus Hinata, and the Sailor Scouts, in the civilian forms, walking up to all of them with Sakura having an annoyed look.

Akiza says, “We saw that you and Sailor Moon have cards similar to me and Luna.”

Sakura takes out her Moonlight Rose Dragon (2400/1800) Synchro Monster and she asks, “You mean this?”

Jack says, with a serious tone, “That’s right! That looks a lot like Akiza’s Black Rose Dragon and Sailor Moon’s card looks similar to Ancient Fairy Dragon in which that ‘Ancient Pixie Dragon’ gave off a dark aura.”

Kari asks, surprised, “You… You saw it?”

Crow says, “No joke.”

Kazuto says, “I guess that it isn’t a coincidence.”
Luna asks, “Kirito-san, you saw dark aura coming from Sailor Moon’s card?”

Keiko says, with a nod, “I did too. It was scary.”

Mimi asks, “How come you saw it when I couldn’t see it?”

Renamon says, “That’s actually a good question. While a number of you could see that ‘dark energy’ coming from that, a number of you couldn’t.”

Ken says, “Maybe it has to do with a number of reasons. I could probably see that dark energy since I was once corrupted by the darkness in the form of the Dark Spore before I snapped out of it when Kimeramon was defeated.”

Izzy says, with a nod, “That’s a logical theory, Ken. Your time corrupted by the Dark Spore could have made you more ‘sensitive’ to dark forces and allow you to see them.”

Gatomon asks, “But what are these cards?”

Trista says, “They are known as Duel Dragons.”

Everyone looks at Trista and Hotaru asks, “Duel Dragons?”

Trista says, “A group of dragon or dragon-like monsters connected with chaotic forces in order to be used to seal a great and dangerous power. The original Signer Dragons were once Duel Dragons until the Crimson Dragon, needing mighty dragon warriors against Red Nova and the Earthbound Immortals, freed them from this duty and infused them with portions of its power allowing them to be reborn, but their ‘shadows’ were transformed into their original Duel Dragon selves, basically becoming the ‘brothers and sisters’ to the Signer Dragons.”

Akiza asks, “Wait! So, this dragon and that dragon that Sailor Moon used are the ‘sisters’ to Black Rose and Ancient Fairy Dragons?”

Trista says, “In a way, yes. I think that your dragons reacted to return of the Duel Dragons.”

Jack asks Trista, “How come you know so much about our dragons and the Duel Dragons?”

Just then a familiar female voice says, “Maybe it is because that she has got knowledge of history that’s beyond your understanding, Atlas-dono.” Everyone whips their heads to see Sailor Moon with a bundle containing newborn baby Rini in her arms comes over.

Leo says, “Sailor Moon!”

Baby Rini starts to cry and Sailor Moon says, gently rocking her, “Hush now. Mommy is here, sweetie.”

There are surprised looks and Ino yells out, stunned, “Mommy?!”

Sailor Moon retorts, “What else would I call myself to my daughter?”

There are multiple gasps and Yolei yells out, “Daughter?”

Sakura yells out, “Hey, Meatball Head, you shouldn’t be up!”

Sailor Moon tells Sakura, with a smile, “I’m fine, Sakura. My powers enhanced my stamina and even through it was my will and refusal to die that kept the potion from killing me, my enhanced healing allowed me to recover in no time. And it was so stuffy for my princess, so, I thought that I would take her for some fresh air.”

Tsunade thinks in her mind, “It is why she took the potion after all and she learned how to use it without dying!”

Sailor Moon tells Sakura, “Anyway, sorry that I had to knock you out like that. I couldn’t let you tell the others where my dad’s home was.”

There are surprised looks and Davis asks Sakura, “Sis, you were with Sailor Moon?”

Sakura says, “Found her floating around last night and I confronted her.” Sakura says, glaring at Sailor Moon, “She struck me where it hurt most: My honor as a doctor.” There are surprised looks and Davis and Tai then glare at Sailor Moon.

Akiza asks, “Doctor?”

Sakura responds, “Sakura Motomiya, Chief Medical Officer, Data Squad.” Sakura then tells Sailor Moon, “And I already told you that you aren’t getting that prize, Sailor Moon.”

Sailor Moon says, “I don’t care about that now.” There are plenty of surprised looks and Sailor Moon says, “I thought that I needed the power to help Naruto, but I really didn’t need a ‘thing’, I needed a person.” Just then someone steps out of the shadows and everyone gasps to see a brand new Sailor Scout come out into the open.

This brand new Sailor Scout had a mixture of silver hair and dark blue in Queen Serenity’s hairstyle, there is a silver crown adorned with all types of jewels and a golden five-pointed star on the foreword portion of her scalp, she has a silver five-pointed star sigil with a golden crescent moon inside of the star sigil on her forehead, she has deep and full gorgeous shimmering bright violet lips, a familiar pair of lavender-white Byakugan eyes, she is wearing an armored fuku similar to Sailor Galaxia’s fuku, but it is silver in color, there is a rainbow heart-shaped broach with a golden star and silver crescent moon on it along a fairy, dragon, and tiger along with eight large white fairy wings attached to the sides of the broach, she has dark violet armored shoulder pads and elbow pads, she has dark violet fingerless gloves that goes to her elbows with golden bracelets similar to Galaxia’s bracelets attached to her wrists above the glows, but she has two emerald cut diamonds attached to the center of the bracelets, she has dark violet armored kneepads, and silver open-toed high-heeled shoes with four inch stiletto heels. She has armored pouches containing ninja tools attached to her armored skirt and large huge white fairy wings coming out of her back.

Raye asks, stunned, “Another Sailor Scout?”

This new Sailor Scout says, in Hinata’s voice, “My name is Sailor Star.”

Kiba yells out, stunned, “Wait! Hinata?!”

The new Sailor Scout, Sailor Star, responds, “It’s me, Kiba.”

There are gasps from the Leaf ninja and Tenten asks her, “What’s going on here?”

Sailor Star responds, “I’m sorry, Tenten. I can’t fight family and I need to be with Naruto-kun.”

Lee asks, confused, “Wait! Family?”

Sailor Moon responds, “Sailor Pluto will fill you in.” Sailor Moon asks Sailor Star, “How is Naruto doing?”

Sailor Star responds, “He’s okay, but he still need awhile, Sailor Moon.”

The Leaf ninja are surprised and Kakashi asks, “Naruto is awake?”

Sailor Star responds, with an intense glare that’s not like Hinata Hyuga before, “Naruto-kun is awake and he is safe. And I intend to keep it that way.” The Leaf ninja are surprised by Sailor Star’s intense star with a hint of dark determination not seen in Hinata Hyuga before.

When baby Rini starts to cry again, Sailor Moon says, gently cradling her, “Okay, sweetie, I know. You’re hungry.” Sailor Moon says, with a slight blush, “I have to feed my girl right now. I will see you later in the tournament.”

Sakura says, with a nod, “No kidding, Meatball Head.” Sakura and Sailor Moon look at each other and Sailor Moon and Sailor Star fly off into the distance.

Davis asks Sakura, “Sis, what is this meeting up with Sailor Moon?”

Sakura says, pointing to the Outer Sailor Scouts, “She managed to sneak to their mansion undetected and I managed to sneak up on her.”

Jun says, “I already chewed her out and had Ami scan her to make sure she wasn’t ‘infected’ by that dark crystal.”

Sakura tells Jun, with a serious tone, “I’m fine, Jun. I’m not going to let my mind get warped by a stupid overgrown gemstone.”

Jun responds, glaring at Sakura, “And you are my sister in this lifetime and in our previous lifetime, so, I’m not going to take that fucking chance, sis.”

Jack asks, “Previous lifetime?”

Davis responds, “Data Squad business.”

Jack tells Davis, “Not good enough, kid.”

Davis yells out, sternly, “Hey, pal! Who are you calling a kid? I don’t care if you are the great world turbo duelist! Get me pissed off and I’m arrest your ass!”

Jack responds, strongly, “Just try it, pal!”

Davis and Jack glare at each other and Yolei says, slapping her head, “Leave it to Davis to piss off a world famous duelist.”

Yusei tells Jack, “Jack, we aren’t here to start trouble.”

Jack tells Yusei, “Fine, Yusei.” Jack says, looking at the others, “But this isn’t over.” The former Signers then take off with pulling the wheelchairs that contain Leo and Luna and they wave their goodbyes to Kazuto and his group.

When they are out of hearing distance, Rika yells out, “Now, can someone tell us what’s going on with Sailor Moon having her own baby daughter?!”

Mina says, nervously, “It is a long story, Liz.”

Lita says, nervously, “A real long story.”

Sakura says, taking out her broach, “Anyway, it is best that we come up the creation of our own game plan since someone is recreating SAO in real life.”

There are multiple gasps and Tai asks, “Say what?”

Renamon says, “My partner believes that this whole situation is some kind of ‘manipulation’ by someone including Sugou’s breakout and what is happening with King Geminios manipulating him from the sidelines with his greatest desire.”

Sora asks, “His greatest desire?”

Sakura says, “His family and the love of his life. He intends to get his hands on that dangerous power that the Duel Dragons keep sealed away.” There are gasps and Sakura says, “And most likely, Hinata has a Duel Dragon herself too.”

Kiba yells out, “Hold on! Are you saying that Hinata has one of those cards like Lady Serena that gave off that weird dark feeling?”

Sakura says, “Exactly.”

There are shocked looks from the Leaf group and Jiraiya says, drolly, “Just great. And something tells me that she will be more protective of the gaki than ever before. And with Minato and I, I’m not sure that we will look positive in front of their eyes.”

Kakashi tells Jiraiya, “But you actually cared for Naruto and Minato-sensei didn’t have a choice.”

Minato responds, “I had a choice… ensure that it was never known that Naruto had the fox in him. I could told Sarutobi to say that the fox was sealed in an ‘inhuman container’ for security purposes that won’t be told.”

Jiraiya says, with a sigh, “And I could have been a better godfather to Naruto.”

Amara says, with a glare, “No kidding, you old pervert.”

Raye tells Kakashi, “Not to mention that a certain student of said Naruto’s father favor a son of a guy that tried to take over his home, who became a criminal, and now, a sicko so-called revolution that wants to kill Minato-dono’s son since he believes him the only great threat to his sicko plans for world peace.”

Kakashi gives a solemn expression and Sakura says, “A mistake that I intend to correct, Raye.” When everyone looks at Sakura, she says, with an extremely determined look in her eyes, “Sasuke Uchiha will be ended by my hand and the cycle of war started by Indra and Asura will end by my hand.”

Ino says, her eyes widen, “Sakura…”

Tsunade tells Sakura, “You don’t have to do this alone, Sakura.”

Sakura tells Tsunade, “I’m sorry, Lady Tsunade. I said before, Sakura Haruno died over two years ago.”

Tsunade says, “I don’t believe that. I believe she is right in front of me and she refuses to admit it.”

Sakura responds, “From what I remember, I remember a love struck fan girl that had to get knocked into her head about how dumb she was being by bashing a blond haired friend and fanning over an obsessed avenger. I saw a girl who became desperate to save a love that NEVER had a chance like also yearning to forge her own ninja legend, but no matter how powerful or how talented she got, she was always left in the shadow of her legendary or infamous peers and teammates.” The Leaf ninja gasp in shock and then there is a strange wind that comes around that forces everyone to cover their eyes in which they are able to open their eyes, they see the image of Sakura with her original ninja clothing (A/N: Sakura’s pre-Fourth Great Ninja War outfit.) and then they see an image of Sakura, but she is wearing a golden and silver version of Princess Serenity’s dress, the same crown as Sailor Sun on her scalp, and golden-red sun sigil on her forehead.

Everyone is awe-struck and Suguha tells Kazuto, “Big brother, what’s going on here?”

Kazuto says, looking at Suguha, “Oh, crap!” Suguha glares at Kazuto and he says, with a nervous smile, “It is a long story, Sugu.” On the meanwhile, the feline Luna and Artemis are looking at the whole situation.

Artemis says, “It is just like the girls said. The Solaris Princess, the strongest Sailor Soldier in the universe at the time of the Silver Millennium, has returned.”

Luna (F) says, “Yes, but I fear that she doesn’t bring good tidings especially with Sailor Moon as she is. You know that Sailor Sun has a complex history.”

Artemis says, with a nod, “No joke, Luna. When she was young, she didn’t show the qualities as Solaris heiress, but she then become one of the best. She was a legendary healer and warrior despite her getting a nasty title, but then again, she had a tendency to be a bit extreme in her duties.”

Luna (F) says, “And then the mess with Asura and Indra happened in which the war between them began causing centuries of strife on Gaea, but the thing is that ‘war’ had a third player. It had Sailor Sun and now, all three of them have awoken. Sasuke has awoken to his power as Indra, Naruto has awoken his power as Asura, and Sakura has awoken her power as Sailor Sun.”

Artemis says, “The final battle between them is about to begin.” Just then an image of Indra, surrounded by Susanoo ethereal warrior, Asura, surrounded by a warrior shaped multi-armed chakra cloak, and Sailor Sun, surrounded by a flaming phoenix aura, are battling each other.

Luna (F) says, solemnly, “Yes, but I fear that our worst fear will happen.”

Artemis says, stunned, “You can’t mean…!!”

Luna (F) says, solemnly, “Sailor Sun was the most powerful Sailor Soldier of the Silver Millennium and she was the elite of that day and Sailor Moon has taken the title ‘most powerful Sailor Scout’, but not because of that, with Sailor Sun’s personality, especially conflicted, and the way that our princess is now, I fear that it will happen and Sailor Sun and Sailor Moon will fight each other.”

Artemis says, “I hope that never happens, Luna. If it does, it could mean the end of the universe as we know it.”

Luna (F) says, “I know, Artemis, but I fear that confrontation, as the final battle of Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura, will happen.” However, in her heart of hearts, our Lunarian feline hopes that it will never happen.

(Returning to Geminios’ ‘headquarters’; on the meanwhile)

Within Geminios’ headquarters, Naruto is lying down on the bed as Geminios is using some kind of futuristic scanner to examine him.

Flashback; Some time ago

After Rini’s birth, Naruto learned what’s going on and like Sailor Moon, he is suffering from major amnesia in which he managed to regain some memories, in which a lot of them weren’t good, but when he remembered Sakura and she died to save his life added to fact that he has been asleep for over two years caused him to nearly go into shock. Hinata hugged Naruto and he looks at her in the eyes.

Hinata tells Naruto, warmly, “It’s okay, Naruto-kun. I’m here! It’s going to be okay!”

Naruto says, his eyes widening, “Hinata…”

Hinata tells Naruto, “You saved me and helped me so much, Naruto-kun. Now, I’m here to help you. I won’t leave you, I promise. And that’s my ninja way.” Naruto’s eyes widen and Hinata kisses him on the lips in which he blushes, but he can’t help to feel warm and he returns the kiss.

Just then Serena’s voice says, “That’s right, Naruto.” Hinata and Naruto break from the kiss and they look to see Serena, being put on the bed by Geminios, lying down in which Serena is breast feeding Rini. Serena tells Naruto, warmly, “We’ll always be here, Naruto.” Serena extends her open hand and Naruto and Hinata take it.

End Flashback; Return to the Present

Naruto says, annoyed, “I really hate this, believe it!”

Geminios tells Naruto, “We have to make sure that you aren’t suffering any aftereffects from the Eclipse Crystal, Naruto-san. Unlike my reincarnated daughters and me, you have no type of Lunarian blood to handle the crystal’s dark energy and there could be effects.”

Naruto tells Geminios, “I’m not going to let some stupid gem keep me down, believe it.”

Geminios says, with a nod, “Good. Your determination is good.”

Naruto asks, “How can I protect Moon-chan and Hinata-chan when I’m like this? When… I don’t know who I really am?”

Geminios tells Naruto, “You are a hero, Naruto-san.”

Naruto says, with a sneer, “Some hero… Someone had to die for my sake. I swore no more sacrifices… and this is where it ends up. I made a promise to create a better future, but what I can fucking do? I was right. Asura was only half right and Indra was partially right.”

Geminios asks, “How so?”

Naruto says, “You need compassion to bring peace, but you do need power, however, Indra only thought of one power. Without the heart and willpower, raw power means absolutely nothing. However, raw power can give the heart and will what it needs to make fantasy reality. Asura gain that power through unity, but how can I use those bonds if I don’t have them anymore? How can I protect anyone without the strength to do it? I need to protect Hinata-chan and Moon-chan. They are among the few people that I can remember and the people most precious to me right now.”

Geminios says, “I could help you with that.”

Naruto asks, “You can?”

Geminios says, “For now, rest. Serenity and Freyja will have a heart attack if you go back into a coma.”

Naruto says, with a nod, “Yeah, I know. But I want… I need to protect them.” Naruto rests as he tries to sort through the few memories that he has in which he seems imagines of his friends from the Leaf, but other than Hinata and even Sakura, he can’t fully ‘see’ them. However, he remember his promise to Hagoromo to create a better world where things like Jinchuirki would never be needed again and he also remembered his promise to Darien to protect Serena/Sailor Moon in which he promises to fulfill the promises no matter what it took which starts to lead Naruto’s thoughts down a ‘darker turn’ including thoughts to make sure that no one suffers when he went through and deep desire to experience love in which what happened recently with Serena and Hinata come forth into his mind and warms his heart, however, makes him desire this feeling more and increases his need to protect them.

(Back in Juuban; Later on)

Much later on that very same day, there is a dueling platform prepared as Sakura Motomiya/Sakura Haruno and Akiza Izinski with their duel disks attached to their left wrists walk onto it. Much of the day had ‘preliminary rounds’ until there were just 32 duelists left including Sakura, Sailor Moon, Davis, Yusei, Jack, Crow, Akiza, and Suguha. The first match of the finals has Sakura going against Akiza in which Akiza’s fellow former Signers are watching.

Leo yells out, “Go get them, Akiza!”

The announcer for the tournament shouts out, “For this first round, it is none other than lovely rose of Team Five-Ds and the founder of homes and schools for Psychic Duelists everywhere, Akiza Izinski! And her opponent is the surgeon of Data Squad, Sakura Motomiya!”

There are multiple cheers and with the Sailor Scouts, Digidestined, Leaf ninja, and others, Davis says, “Here we go.”

Kari asks, “What kind of deck does Sakura use?”

Izzy says, “Let’s just say that Akiza-san might be fighting a ‘mirror image’ of herself in a way with Sakura.” The others have their eyes widen as Sakura’s and Akiza’s duel disks’ activate, shuffle their decks, and both of them draw five cards from their respective decks as their life-point counters displays 4000 life-points for each duelist.

“Let’s duel!” Sakura and Akiza yell out in unison.

Starting Scores:
Sakura: 4000
Akiza: 4000

Sakura closes her eyes and she says, “I’ll start off.”

Akiza thinks in her mind, curiously, “What is she doing?”

Sakura puts her hand on her deck and she says, as she draws the card, “I draw and I summon the card that I just drew! Rose Witch in defense mode!” Just then Rose Witch (1600/1000) appears on the field in defense mode.

There are multiple gasps and Crow yells out, stunned, “No way! How did she do that?!”

Rika says, “She… She played a card without even looking at it!”

Asuna asks, confused, “Is that even possible?”

Sakura says, putting two more cards into the spell/trap slots, “And I end my turn with two cards face-down.”

When Sakura opens her eyes, Akiza asks, “But how? You didn’t even look at your cards! How did you know that you were going to draw that card?”

Sakura says, with a smile, “Let’s just say that Moonlight Rose unlocked something special inside of me.”

Akiza thinks in her mind, curiously, “Moonlight Rose unlocked something inside of her? Could she be a psychic duelist like me? Or did that alternate version of my Black Rose Dragon give her similar powers?” Akiza says, drawing a card, “Guess I’m going to have to figure that out for myself! I draw!” Akiza says, putting one card on her duel disk, “And I’ll start with Twilight Rose Knight!” Soon after, Twilight Rose Knight (1000/1000) appears on the field in attack mode and Akiza says, putting another card on her duel disk, “And thanks to his ability, I can play one Plant monster from my hand as long as it is level four or less! And I choose Botanical Lion!” Soon after, Botanical Lion (1600/2000) appears on the field in attack mode and Akiza says, “And I intend to give her more bite when I tune my Twilight Rose Knight with my Lion!” Twilight Rose Knight turns into three stars that turn into three rings that surround Botanical Lion making it become transparent and a column of light appears on the field while Akiza takes a Synchro Monster card from her Extra Deck. She chants out, “Chilling flames engulf the entire world. Pitch-dark flower, set into bloom! Synchro Summon!” Akiza puts the Synchro Monster card on her Extra Deck and she says, “Meet my faithful dragon: Black Rose Dragon!” Out of the column of light, Black Rose Dragon (2400/1800) appears on the field in attack mode.

In the audience, there are sounds of amazement and one of the audience, a young woman, yells out, “There it is! Her ace: Black Rose Dragon!”

Suguha says, awe-struck, “It’s awesome!”

Lita whistles and she says, “Wow, it’s incredible.”

Raye says, with a nod, “No joke.”

With the former Signers, Jack says, “Well, let’s see if this girl, Sakura, can take on this.”

Akiza removes Botanical Lion (1600/2000) monster card from her graveyard and she says, “Thanks to Black Rose’s ability, I can remove a Plant monster from play and now, your Rose Witch switches to attack mode and she loses all of her attack power! Hit it with Black Binding Bloom!” Soon after, Rose Witch is entrapped from thorny vines from Black Rose Dragon, switching it into attack mode, and making it go from 1600/2000 to 0/2000 in which Akiza says, “Now, Black Rose Dragon, attack with Black Rose Flare!” Black Rose Dragon unleashes its violet flame breath on Rose Witch and vaporizing it.

Sakura says, pushing a button on her duel disk, “I activate my trap: Defense Draw!” One of Sakura’s face-down card is Defense Draw and Sakura says, “This trap card negates all battle damage and I draw a card!” A shield protects Sakura’s from Black Rose Dragon’s attack and when the attack is done, Sakura draws one card.

Akiza says, putting two cards into the spell/trap slots, “I end my turn with a couple of face-downs.”

Sakura says, drawing a card, “It’s my move!” Sakura says, pushing a button on her duel disk, “I activate my Call of the Haunted!” Sakura’s face-down card is revealed to be the Call of the Haunted continuous trap card and Sakura says, “And with it, I revive my friend, Rose Witch, in attack mode.” Soon after, Rose Witch (1600/1000) returns to the field in attack mode. Sakura says, putting one card on her duel disk, “And thanks to its ability, when I advance summon a monster with her, she counts as two monsters instead one! So, I release her in order to play Queen Angel of Roses in attack mode!” Rose Witch vanishes and Queen Angel of Roses (2400/1300) appears on the field in attack mode.

Back in the audience, Jun and Lopmon come up and Jun says, “That’s it. Sakura’s ace monster.”

Ken asks, “That’s Sakura’s ace monster.”

Davis says, with a nod, “Yep. She has won quite a few duels with her.”

Returning to the duel, Sakura says, putting two cards into the spell/trap slots, “I equip my queen with Mist Body and making her unable to be destroyed in battle! Then I give her Invisibility Cloak equip spell! This card makes it impossible for you to activate trap or spell effects when my queen battles!”

Akiza says, “Oh no.”

Sakura yells out, “Now, my queen, give Black Rose Dragon a royal clocking!” Queen Angel spears Black Rose Dragon, but even though they are equal in attack power, due to Sakura’s equip spell, Black Rose Dragon is the only one destroyed.

With the former Signers, Luna (H) says, “Oh no.”

Crow says, “Ouch! That’s got to hurt!”

Returning to the duel, Sakura says, putting two cards into the spell/trap slots, “I end with two more face-downs.”

Akiza says, drawing a card, “Then it is my move!” Akiza puts one card on her duel disk and she says, “I play Blue Rose Dragon in defense mode!” Blue Rose Dragon (1600/1000) appears on the field in defense mode. Akiza says, “That’s it for now.”

Sakura says, drawing a card, “My move!” Sakura yells out, “And now, during my Standby Phase, Queen Angel’s ability activates and weakest attack monster on the field is automatically destroyed! Rose Burial!” Just then vines come out of the ground and drag Blue Rose Dragon into the ground.

Akiza says, “Thanks to Blue Rose Dragon, since you destroyed her, I can revive one Black Rose Dragon from my graveyard!” Just then Black Rose Dragon (2400/2000) returns to the field in attack mode. Akiza says, pushing a button on her duel disk, “And now, I activate my Rose Overgrowth trap card!” Akiza’s face-down card is revealed to be a trap card with a picture of Black Rose Dragon grappling with traps and spells cards and Akiza says, “Thanks to this card, when Black Rose Dragon is summoned in a way other than Synchro Summoning, I can use this card to destroy your active spell and trap cards on the field and my dragon gains five hundred attack points for each one!” Just then Mist Body and Invisibility Cloak equip spells are destroyed and Black Rose Dragon goes from 2400/1800 to 3400/1800!

Leo yells out, excitedly, “Way to go, Akiza!”

Akiza says, pushing a button on her duel disk, “Then I activate my Rose Pheromone trap card!” Akiza’s other trap card is a counter trap with a picture of Rose Tentacles unleash some kind of mist and Akiza says, “This trap card forces your monster to attack any ‘Rose’ monster on my field!” Queen Angel of Roses then moves in to attack Black Rose Dragon and Black Rose Dragon blasts Queen Angel into pieces causing Sakura to lose 1000 life-points.

Jack says, with a smile, “Nice.”

Sakura says, pushing a button on her duel disk, “Bad move since I play my Discard Synchro!” Sakura’s face-down card is revealed to be a trap card with a picture of cards going to a graveyard slot of a duel disk and a Synchro Monster coming out and Sakura says, “Thanks to this card, when a monster of mine is destroyed, I discard one card for every level that it had, but if there is enough Tuner and non-Tuner monsters in the mix, I can Synchro Summon with them!”

There are multiple gasps and Amara says, “That’s not good for Akiza-san.”

Michelle says, with a nod, “Yes. Her Queen Angel was a level seven and that means that seven cards are discarded in which means a good chance to get what she needs.” Sakura draws seven cards, looks at them, and she sends to the graveyard slot in which then a Twilight Rose Knight (1000/1000) and Cactus Fighter (1900/400) appears on the field.

Sakura says, “And my faithful deck never lets me down! I tune my Twilight Rose Knight and Cactus Fighter!” Twilight Rose Knight turns into three stars that turn into three rings that surround Cactus Fighter turning it transparent causing a column of light to appear when Sakura gets a Synchro Monster card from her Extra Deck. Sakura says, “Lofty rose that buds in a garden of integrity! Bloom here, watered by blue moonlight! Synchro Summon!” Sakura puts the card on her duel disk and she yells out, “Shine, Moonlight Rose Dragon!” Out of the light, Moonlight Rose Dragon (2400/1800), a monster that looks like a ‘brighter’ version of Black Rose Dragon, appears on the field in attack mode.

There are gasps and Yusei says, “That’s it!”

Jack says, “The ‘Duel Dragon’ version of Akiza’s Black Rose Dragon!”

Akiza says, “My dragon is stronger.”

Sakura says, “And my dragon, when it or another monster is special summoned, allows me to return one special summoned monster back to the player’s hand!”

Akiza says, stunned, “But that means…”

Sakura says, with a nod, “Since Black Rose Dragon is a Synchro Monster, it doesn’t go back to your hand, it goes back to your deck!” Sakura yells out, “Moonlight, sing Black Rose Dragon’s swan song! Rose Ballad!” Moonlight Rose roars causing Black Rose Dragon as it vanishes in which a beam of light goes into Akiza’s Extra Deck.

With the former Signers, they are shocked and Crow says, “That’s not good.”

Jack says, “And thanks to that dragon’s ability, Akiza’s special summons is in big trouble.”

Sakura says, pushing a button on her duel disk, “And now, I play my final trap! Rose Infusion!” Sakura’s final trap card is revealed to be a trap card revealing Moonlight Rose Dragon getting infused with energy from Blue Rose Dragon and Sakura says, “I remove one Rose monster from my graveyard and my Moonlight gains its attack power! I remove Queen Angel!” Sakura removes her Queen Angel of Rose (2400/1300) from her graveyard as an image of it goes into Moonlight Rose Dragon causing it to go from 2400/1800 to 4800/1800!

Back with the former Signers and Luna (H) says, “Oh no.”

Jack says, solemnly, “It’s over.”

Akiza’s eyes widen out and Sakura says, “Sorry to be rude, but I have bigger fish to fry and without your Signer powers, you have no chance against a Duel Priestess welding a Duel Dragon! It’s time to end this! Moonlight Rose Dragon, direct attack! Sing her final song in this duel with Rose Requiem!” Moonlight Rose unleashes a blast of energy right at Akiza, who yelps as the attack slams into her, as she loses 4800 life-points, ending the duel immediately.

Final Score:
Sakura: 3000
Akiza: 0

However, as the attack slams into her, Akiza gasps as images flow into her mind in which she sees images of a kingdom full of sunflowers with a golden castle, Sailor Sun fighting someone that looks like Kazuto as Kirito the Black Swordsman of SAO, Sailor Sun within the Moon Kingdom meeting with Queen Serenity, Princess Serenity, Princess Freyja, Hinata’s past life, Asura, Indra, and many others, the ruins of the golden castle and the field of sunflowers filled with a mass of bodies and corpses in which Sailor Sun screams in pure horror and terror, Asura and Indra fighting each other with Sailor Sun fighting against Indra in a fury, and images of Sakura Haruno’s life including an image of her looking at the shadows of Naruto and Sasuke, but then another image shows ‘pictures’ of Kaguya, the Shinju, and Team 7 fighting against each other with Naruto fighting in his Six Path Astral Sage Mode, Sasuke with his Rinnegan and Susanoo, and finally, Sailor Sun in which they are fighting each other in a battle royal with powers that destroy mountains, create massive craters, and cause new plant and animal life as well as destroy it at the same time.

Akiza thinks in her mind, “These images… they are… memories… and a vision!” With the end of the duel, the final holograms fade away and Sakura turns away while Akiza falls to one knee.

Yusei, Jack, and Crow leap onto the stage and Yusei asks, “Are you okay?”

Akiza gets to her feet and she says, “I’m okay.” As Sakura continues to walk away, Akiza shouts out, “Hold it!”

Sakura says, “The duel is over, Miss Akiza. I’m sorry that I didn’t give you proper respect, but I’ve got things to do.”

Akiza yells out, “Who are you really? What are you?!”

Sakura turns her head to look at Akiza and Sakura responds, “What are you talking about?” Just then Sakura looks at her Moonlight Rose Dragon (2400/1800) Synchro Monster card on her duel disk and she says, “What a pain. She showed some of my memories including possibly my suppressed ones.”

Crow asks, “Suppressed memories?”

Akiza asks, “Like you have amnesia? Or a past life?”

Sakura tells Akiza, “Just ignore what you saw.”

Akiza responds, “I can’t!”

Sakura tells Akiza, in a serious tone, “You aren’t a Signer anymore and we are dealing with powers that rival those of the Dark Signers!”

There are gasps and Crow asks, “Rival the Dark Signers?”

Sakura says, “There are only two ways to deal with someone with a Duel Dragon. Have one yourself and be a Duel Priest or Priestess or you are a Signer, but this is only going to be one battle in what’s coming next. Your battle with the Dark Signers will be nothing, but a cock fight compared to what’s coming next.”

There are surprised looks among the former Signers and Crow responds, “You’re joking or messing with us.”

Sakura retorts, “Baka, do I look like that kind of girl?”

As Sakura takes off, Jack tells Crow, “She’s not fooling around Crow.”

Yusei says, with a nod, “I got that same vibe, Jack. Those Duel Dragons, including the alternate version of our dragons, are dangerous.”

Crow asks, “How come we are among the few that saw that dark energy that came from that alternate version of Ancient Fairy Dragon?”

Akiza says, “Probably we were once Signers with the power of the Crimson Dragon. Maybe it felt a little of its power in us just in case.”

Jack says, “Probably that’s why the seal on Red Nova Dragon remains. There is a bit of power left along my will keeping it in place.”

Crow tells Yusei, “Yusei, your first match…”

Yusei says, looking in a certain direction, “I know, Crow.” When the other former Signers look in that same direction, they see Sailor Moon, floating in the air, in which she has a completely out of character look in her eyes: Grim determination.

The Sailor Scouts are together and Hotaru says, “I feel a strong dark energy inside of our princess.”

Amara says, “And a dangerous one. It is changing her and twisting her.”

Raye says, “But the problem is that there are possibly two people that could snap her out of it: One is dead and the other may be just as ‘corrupted’ as she is now.”

Trista says, “Then the only way to save our princess may be to save Naruto, but there is another paradox: The only one that can bring him from the darkness may be already swallowed by it like they are.”

Lita says, “Hinata-chan, who is Serena’s sister in her past life as Princess Serenity.”

Ami says, “And she is a powerful Sailor Scout, too: Sailor Star.”

Amara says, “This may be our most difficult battle yet.” As the Sailor Scouts look at her, the Digidestined and Leaf ninja are looking at her as well knowing that while they are facing multiple dangerous foes, the greatest foe might be someone that was once one of the greatest heroines of Earth.

And that’s the chapter, everyone! If you are saying that Sailor Moon, Naruto, Sakura/Sailor Sun, and Hinata/Sailor Star are becoming way off, you are right and I believe that I have explained plenty of the reasons while they are ‘off’, folks. Well, you must be surprised by Rini’s early birth in this story. You can expect plenty more surprises to come, everyone! For now, keep reading and reviewing and later and best wishes, Crossover Fans!
