[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Five hours later...
A baby's cry fills the air, and another one soon follows. Inside the cave, the father gasped. "Twins? I wasn't expecting that..."
"We should have, though... considering it runs in the family." Setsuna said this. "Remember, our mothers were twins..."
Saeko recovered quickly, and sat up, looking at her son and daughter with love in her eyes. "I can't believe it... I didn't see this in my dreams... I guess I'm losing my abilities, huh?" She reached for the one closest, and motioned for Akira to lift the other one into his arms. "Well, I guess now we can use both of the names we thought up, huh Akira? Nyoko and Tamakazu, welcome to the world." They all smiled at the tender moment, even the ones who weren't supposed to be watching.
"You guys do know that I know you are out there, don't you?" Akira asked. "You can come in, and someone please go over to the house and get the others."
The Z warriors stepped inside, and the babies cooed at the newcomers. Trunks ran out to the house and got everyone and came back. Goku smiled. "I know I didn't train you well enough to know we were out there when we were masking our energy signals... How did you know?"
"Simple... She told me." He pointed to the woman on the bed. "She can read minds, and she heard all of your thoughts loud and clear. She told me through telepathy that you all have been here since she woke up, and that you, Goku, were here when she went to sleep in the first place." Akira smiled. He was enjoying the squirming everyone was going through.
"Akira, let them be. They don't understand what is going on here... I would say that it is high time someone told them." Saeko smiled, and they watched as she was moved into a sitting position on the bed. "You see, my dear Z warriors, everyone who here with Setsuna is from a different dimension. In our dimension, we are what is known as Sailor Senshi." And she told the tale, from the very beginning.
Vegita laughed. "You expect us to believe that all of you have powers related to the planets and elements, which all depend on one thing... a crystal? I don't think that is possible."
Akira smiled. He knew it would Vegita who didn't believe, and was prepared. "I guess they are going to need a demonstration, aren't they, my love?" At Saeko's nod, Akira called to the Senshi, who stood outside the cave entrance.
As they walked in, they saw the looks they got from the Z warriors, and were a bit confused.
Saeko sent a telepathic message to Usagi, explaining everything quickly, and then asking her to have everyone transform.
"Guys, it's time to transform. We need to prove our powers to our new friends." Usagi said.
And the warriors all watched as all of the girls in front of them changed themselves into different people. "Alright, so some of them changed. What about the guys?" That was Vegita again.
The males in question all blushed. Seiya spoke up. "Umm... we are a bit different... Our transformation changes us more than the others...Akira and Kurohyou don't have a transformation, and Mamoru over there only changes into a tux, top hat and mask. If you really want to see us transform, we will, but you will never again be able to look at us the same way..." At the looks he got, Seiya sighed. "Oh well... Starlights, transform." They changed into their Senshi forms, and the Z warriors all started to cough and choke.
"They turned into girls!" Goten said. "I didn't know that could happen without surgery!"
Everyone giggled at that, well, everyone except the ones that were being watched the closest.
Vegita talked once again. "All right, so you've shown us your powers. What do you want here anyway?"
Everyone detransformed and left, and Saeko looked at the ones who questioned her. "Our dimension travels slower than this one. While Akira and I came here nine months ago here, it will only have been about three days there. And since I needed to heal quicker than I would have, I asked Setsuna to bring us here. She didn't like the idea at first, but when I mentioned that the others could come later on to train, she agreed. I didn't even know that you guys would be as powerful as you are, seeing what you've done for Akira while I was asleep..." At the confused looks aimed at her, she explained. "I have prophetic dreams... I see what happens in the future while I'm sleeping... Anyway, I didn't know that you would be this strong, only that this would be a great place to get some training done. So, we really didn't want anything from you, only to rest and then train. We will find somewhere else if you want... Setsuna probably knows many other dimensions where the time travels quicker than ours, but if you don't mind, I kind of like it here... it's peaceful, and I like you guys. You are trustworthy, and strong. Training with you would help us immensely." She looked down at the baby in her arms, and then the one in Akira's, both of whom now slept. "I want to make sure that our world will be safe for these two angels to live in." The loving, motherly look on her face got to all present, even Vegita.
"All right then, I guess it's settled. You are all staying." This came from Goku, speaking as the leader of the group. "I hope that your presence here will help, since we will begin training all of you right away... well, as soon as you are recovered. Everyone else will be training with us, but you will learn our energy sensing techniques with your husband, who has already gotten a good hang of it." He smiled and leaned closer to look at the babies. "Of course, these two cuties will need to be included once they are old enough, but for now they can stay with Bulma and Chichi while you are learning."
Saeko smiled back at the man. She had decided she liked him the first time they'd met, and was still of the same mind. She then realized what they had said, and began to laugh. "Oh, I doubt that they will need to stay with Bulma and Chichi... You see, while I was asleep, I concentrated all of my energy on teaching these two everything I know, including what their powers would be and how to use them... Nyoko, make a gem for Uncle Goku would you honey?"
Everyone watched in amazement as the baby lifted her hands and a glow began in them. The glow formed and hardened into a ruby the size of the baby's fist, and she grabbed it, then let go to have it hover in the air over to Goku. He caught it, and began to laugh. "Well, at least now I have an anniversary present for Chichi..."
She smiled again. "I'm afraid that her powers will differ from mine, as will his. Everyone from my line is blessed with the colors of two gems. One of hers will be ruby, obviously, and the other will show itself in time... I am guessing it will be sapphire. Normally the colors make nice complements. I am wondering what his will be though, since I haven't checked his powers yet..."
"Well, why not check them now?" Everyone looked a little bit curious as to what colors he would have.
"I am worried. Never before in my family has there ever been a prince... It was always a princess... I guess Akiras' genes are a bit stronger than most..." She smiled as she watched him cough slightly and blush. "I don't know if he will even have powers... And if they are, they might only be Prince Powers, not those of a Senshi..." As if to argue with her, Tamakazu cried and lifted his hands as his sister had done moments before. She was proved wrong when a yellowish gem appeared in his hands. "Hey that's a citrine! And, I would bet anything his other color is aquamarine." Answering this, he made another one. This time, it was indeed aquamarine. His sister decided to join him, and made a sapphire.
Then they all flew towards Goku. "Hey, now I have enough to make a necklace... Thanks you guys!" Goku pocketed all four, and then got to thinking. "Hey, you know, you have a couple of pretty powerful kids there... Are you sure they will need our training?"
Saeko smiled yet again. "Of course they will. All they have done so far is create gems and levitate them towards you. That really isn't much. They still need to be physically strong and fast, and able to create new attacks using all of their abilities. They still need to be able to hold their own in a fight, and I'm sure you will be the perfect teachers for the job." Her color had almost completely returned, and since it was nearing morning now, and she had slept for such a long time, she was not tired at all. "Do you think we can train now? The sooner I get back in shape the better..."
"Well, since we all are up--" Goku was interrupted just then, and with good reason.
"Wait a minute! We can't... Usagi is probably asleep. I know she wouldn't want us to train without her, and waking her up so early is the same as having a death wish... I guess we will all have to sleep on it." She felt a hand on her shoulder, and looked up to see Setsuna standing there. "Yes, Set?"
"Cousin, I must leave now. I need to keep an eye on our dimension, just in case anything happens... I will be back in a few days. I will want to train with you for at least a little while. With that, she gave up any hope of hiding her abilities from her friends in this dimension and opened a portal. "Take care, everyone." She jumped through and disappeared.
Saeko sighed. "That's my cousin, the ever-busy Guardian of Time and Space." The babies began to cry, and she sensed that they were hungry. "Okay, my kids are going to need to eat now, so everyone out..." At their confused looks, she looked down at herself, then at the babies. She heard their muttered Ohs and saw them blushing and then watched as they left. She then settled down to feed her loved ones.

Next morning...
Everyone met down at Goku's house, everyone already transformed and warming up. Saeko sat on the sidelines. She had yet to show her Senshi form, and was going to wait until she had recovered in order to show off. She loved her Senshi form, since it suited her so well. Akira sat next to her, and was talking to her in a low voice, telling her how to control her energy. A half an hour later, she got it. She took a small break, and watched as everyone was sparring. The Senshi, sorry to say, were all losing horribly. Usagi and Mamoru had teamed up against Goku. Vegita had taken on all of the Seasonal Senshi. Gohan took all of the Outers. Yamcha, Tien, Krillin and 18 had taken on the Inners, and Chibi-Usa and Chibi-Chibi, had taken on Trunks and Goten. Chiaotzu seemed to prefer not to fight, and was instead sitting in front of the twins, entertaining them. Bulma and Chichi were inside, making lunch for everyone, which, considering the size of the appetites that belonged to some of the fighters might not have been enough. Everyone was very hungry by the time they were done, but it was no contest as to who could eat the most. Even the Saiyans watched in awe as Usagi dug in, eating more than they ever had in one sitting (AN: Which, by the way, is more than I could eat in a day...). The Senshi just smiled when they saw those looks, and ate their own food slowly.
"Usagi, you meatball head, you are going to make yourself sick!" Rei yelled at her. "Slow down already. You are eating even more than you do at home!"
Usagi stopped, swallowed, and looked at Rei. "Well, what do you expect Pyro? We've been training all day, and I only had three bowls of cereal and four slices of toast for breakfast... I'm starved!" She went back to eating, and as they watched, Bulma and Chichi began to laugh, which stopped everyone for a moment. "What?" Usagi asked.
Chichi started. "We never thought that we would ever find someone..."
And Bulma finished. "...Who would be able to eat more and faster than our men!"
The guys in question blushed, and everyone joined the older women in laughter.
"Yes, well, our princess was born with an insatiable appetite... I'm amazed she doesn't weigh more, considering the amount she eats..." Mamoru said this with humor in his tone, but it ended in a gasp when he felt her elbow go into his side gently. "Sorry, Usako... That was meant as a compliment to your metabolism..." At her look, he simply shut up, and everyone laughed again.
Half an hour later, everyone was ready to train again, but the Z warriors decided that the Senshi should learn energy basics before anything else. Kurohyou, already knowing all there was to know about energy, decided to sit out and watch. He sat nearby to keep an eye on Sayuki, and thought about all that had gone on. When they'd been forced into that state of sleep, he'd been grateful that the Queen had accepted their terms. He loved Sayuki more than life itself, and would not have been able to bear living without her, as he would have if he had not accepted the Guardianship. He'd known that the other Seasonals had disliked him, but he had not known about their suspicions. If he had, he would have talked about his brother sooner. He was saddened by all of the time that had been wasted because of that one ridiculous concept. He was so concentrated on this wavelength of thought that he didn't notice the person standing behind him until he laid his hand on his shoulder. It was Akira, who had left Saeko alone to practice her energy training while he'd walked over here.
Akira sat down next to him. "It's painful, isn't it? Knowing that she's there, and not being able to go to her? I may not have suffered that fate for a lifetime, but I went through it for nine months. They told me what happened back at the temple. I feel bad about that... They shouldn't have judged first and asked questions later. Especially my sister, who has been yelled at enough to make up for all of the years she was missing from my family. I guess, I'm just trying to tell you I understand, and that I'll be a friend, if you need one."
Kurohyou, who was a little bit surprised at the gesture, smiled slightly. "I can appreciate that. I might need a friend in the future, seeing as how I am still not trusted by some here... But for now, I think I need to be alone, to think about things."
"Well, if nothing else, I know that most of us do trust you. I just thought you would like to know that... Usagi is a wonderful judge of character, as is Sayuki, and if you had been lying, they would have seen it by now." With that, he walked back to his wife and their training.
She smiled at him when he sat in front of her, and kissed him when he got close enough. "How did it go? Is he okay?"
He sighed, and they began their training again as he told her. "He'll be fine, but he's wary of them, and he will need time to sort everything out. Other than that, it seems everything is going well. Hey, how is the training going?"
In answer, she smiled and created an energy ball in her hand, then channeled it back throughout her body to push outward, causing her body to float off of the ground.
"That's wonderful darling! That's faster than I learned. Took me two days" He was almost jealous, but also very proud. His wife and children were a few of the strongest people in any universe.
"I wouldn't have been able to do it without you You were the one who taught me. Anyway," she let herself come back down, and sighed at the amount of energy she had just used, "I still am not anywhere near you; you can fly, and move much faster than me, and you can keep up with Goku and the others. I must wait a while before I can do any of that" She looked at the tiny forms lying on the grass nearby, which were laughing at Chiaotzu's antics. He was making things float above their heads, like leaves and the little toys that Chichi had taken out for them. "I think I would rather play with them for a while before I start working hard" She smiled when she saw her daughter use a ruby shard to pin one of the leaves in the air, and a sapphire one to do the same.
"So go ahead... you are already farther in your training the others are. I will go help the Z fighters train the other Senshi, okay? You deserve a break anyway. You had those two munchkins yesterday, so you shouldn't be pushing it." He leaned forward and placed a kiss on her forehead, then walked away to see who needed his help.
They were all grouped the same way that they had been earlier, but this time Vegita was not helping. He didn't have the patience needed to teach anyone other than his own flesh and blood how to fight. So Goku had taken the Seasonals over with him, Usagi and Mamoru to teach them. Akira headed there first, and found that while Goku didn't really need the help, he wanted it.
"Of course Akira I've taught you well enough to have you help me teach the others. Sit, relax."
About an hour later, the Senshi were all still learning, and were floating a few inches off of the ground, when they were distracted by the sound of someone flying a funny-looking helicopter towards them. Everyone dropped back to the soft land and watched as Gohan grimaced and then stood. "I completely forgot that she was coming over today..."
Krillin looked at him and smiled, starting to tease immediately. "Oh so Videl hasn't left you alone yet? Maybe she wants to be your girlfriend."
Gohan blushed slightly, decided to ignore his friend, and then ran over to the copter that had just landed, and everyone watched as a pretty girl with short black hair and bright blue eyes hopped out, then turned the copter into a capsule.
"Who are all of those people Gohan?" She walked up, and, seeing all of the pretty girls, her eyes narrowed slightly. 'If any of them tries to take Gohan from me they will die a horrible death.'
Hearing this, Saeko laughed and stood. "You know, that's not a very nice thought." Her eyes sparkled with humor as Videl looked at her in surprise. "I am sorry, but while my mind reading abilities are controllable most of the time, I cannot block out such loud thoughts. Do not worry though; we are all just friends of the family Or rather, we are friends of friends of the family"
Usagi got up and walked to the new girl. "Hi! I'm Tsukino Usagi. That's my boyfriend Chiba Mamoru over there, and the rest of them will introduce themselves since I am not that long-winded."
Videl smiled, liking this girl's sense of humor. "I am Videl I go to school with Gohan." She listened to the other people introduce themselves. Most of them looked to be about her age, but their eyes looked older, almost as if they had been living really long lives and stayed youthful. She watched as the girl who had read her mind, whose name she now knew was Saeko, walked back to where she had been sitting, and saw her lift one of the babies laying there. 'Are they hers?' Saeko nodded, and Videl understood this. "They are so cute!" She took a few steps and tickled the babies.
"So, Videl, what did you want to talk to me about today?" Gohan didn't really feel like getting teased by everyone there, and having talked to Akira for the last nine months, he knew that some of them would do that, given the chance.
She looked up with a look of indecision in her eyes. "I was wondering if you would help me train, but seeing that you have so many people here needing the same, I guess you might be a bit too busy for me right now I'll just come back some other time"
Gohan sighed inwardly and put a smile on his face. "No, stay, it's fine We were just working on energy basics and meditation You are a bit further than them, but it never hurts to relearn what you already know." And so she sat down with Gohan and the Outers.
Ami, whose ears had pricked up at the word school, stopped working on her energy use and started thinking about how she would fall behind if she stayed here too long.
Tien, who was the one training her, noticed this and snapped his fingers in front of her face. "Earth to Ami! You awake in there?" He watched as her eyes cleared and she blushed.
"Sorry I was thinking about how I am going to fall behind in my studies if we stay here too long"
"Minako, who was sitting closest to them with 18, stopped her training when she heard this. "Ami! You are 15 chapters ahead! You don't need to worry!" All non-Senshi gasped as they heard what Minako had just shouted, and Chichi popped her head out the kitchen window to see if this was true.
"Yes, well, I wanted to get up to twenty chapters by the time we get back to school, so that I can take all those tests and move up to the next section of the Chemistry book." Sweat-drops appeared on the heads of all who heard this, and a few of the people around fainted in an anime fall (AN: Sorry, I didn't want to say 'fell on their heads' because to me it sounds weird).
Usagi giggled. "Ami, if you work on everything here, you'll be done the book by the time we get back! You do realize that if that happened you wouldn't have any more Chemistry classes at all, don't you? We will only be gone what will be a few weeks there, while we're actually here for months! The teachers would all be very confused" Usagi stopped giggling as she got stares from all of the Senshi. "What? Can't I be smart once in a while??"
Rei laughed at this. "You, the ditz, smart? Yeah right! I have never seen you get anything higher than a 'D' as any grade in school, and I'd be amazed if you did."
Usagi fumed at this, and looked at Mamoru, who smiled and nodded. 'I guess now is as good a time as any' "Well, Rei, prepare to be amazed." She grabbed something out of the backpack she had brought with her and held them up for all to see. An 'A' in appears on the top corner of each, written in thick red marker. All of the Senshi gasp, except for a certain Prince of Earth, since he had had a hand in that happening. "You know all of those study sessions I have been having with Mamo-chan that you all assumed were really make-out sessions? We really were studying! He helped me learn all of that stuff, explained it to me in ways I could understand. I was going to wait to tell you until my report card came in so that I could tell my parents first, but the looks on your faces right now makes the not waiting worth it!" She stuffed the pages back into the bag, and then walked over to the little house. "Chichi, do you think I could please have a glass of cold water, please? I think I'm about to be as hot-headed as Pyro over there" Having gotten her drink and thanking the woman who looked at her with respect, she walked into the forest towards the house. "I'm done training for the day. And if anyone tries to stop me I will make sure that they suffer greatly when I rule Crystal Tokyo in a thousand years!" This confused some of the people there, but they all stayed put.
Mamoru was the only one brave enough to run after her, but not before shooting a glance at Rei. "See what you did now? Why do you always have to be like that to her anyway?"
Rei looked ashamed of herself. *Damn it I didn't think that would actually hurt her I always tease her like that and she acts like she normally does*
Ami sat there with a faraway look in her eyes. *I guess I couldn't teach her as well as he could*
Minako and Makato were looking in the direction their rulers had gone in. Minako looked back at her friend and started to smile. "Give you one guess what will be going on up there in a few minutes"
"Minako! That's just wrong! Mamoru won't do that he's too noble!" Makato looked at her friend, who had a weird look on her face. "Why are you suggesting that anyway?"
"Well, I do descend from the goddess of love, don't I? I can feel when 'love' is happening" At hearing this, the others in range turned and looked at her.
"What are you talking about, descending from the goddess of love?" Krillin asked.
"All of the Senshi, at least the Inners and Outers, descend from the gods whose powers they wield. I am Sailor Venus, Princess of Venus, descended from the Goddess of Love, Venus."
"I am Sailor Jupiter, Princess of Jupiter, descended from the God of Thunder and Lightning, Jupiter." Makato said this quietly.
"I am Sailor Mars, Princess of Mars, descended from the God of Fire, Mars." Rei mumbled with her head still bowed in shame.
"I am Sailor Mercury, Princess of Mercury, descended from the God of Ice and Intelligence, Mercury." Mercury hardly looked up from one of the test papers that Usagi had dropped before.
"I am Sailor Saturn, Princess of Saturn, descended from the God of Death and Rebirth, Saturn." Hotaru spoke from the spot where she and other kids were talking.
"I am Sailor Uranus, Princess of Uranus, descended from the God of the Skies and Wind, Uranus." Haruka stood as she said this, pulling Michiru up, who spoke next.
"I am Sailor Neptune, Princess of Neptune, descended from the God of the Seas, Neptune.
"Setsuna is Sailor Pluto, Princess of Pluto, descended from the God of Time, Space, and the Undead, Pluto." Saeko said.
Goku looked around. "So who are the rest of you descendants of?"
Chibi-Usa stood. "I am not sure about the Starlights, but Usagi is Sailor Moon, Princess of the Moon and Future Queen Serenity of Crystal Tokyo, descended from the Goddess of the Moon and Women, Selene. I am Sailor Chibi-Moon, the future Princess of the Moon, Neo-Princess Serenity, and descended also from the Goddess Selene. Mamoru is Tuxedo Kamen, Prince of the Earth and Future King Endymion of Crystal Tokyo and the Moon, descended from well, I don't know who he is descended from" She looked at the Seasonals. "I would guess that you four, and Akira of course, are descended from the Greek Goddess of Seasons and Harvest, Demeter."
"You seem to be very smart for one your age" Bulma stated.
Chibi-Usa blushed a little and looked at her with disappointment in her eyes. "That's because I am much older than I look The Silver Crystal, in addition to my Lunarian blood, makes us age much, much slower than any normal people, or even Saiyans would Who, by the way, are distant cousins of ours"
Goten looked at her with curiosity in his eyes. "So how old are you really?" This caught everyone's attention and curiosity as well.
Chibi-Usa blushed some more and looked away. She mumbled her answer to this quickly and quietly. "Im900yrsold"
No one heard her, and they urged her to repeat her answer.
"I'm 900 years old, all right?" She practically shouted this, then sobbed once and took a few steps back when she heard gasps run through the crowd near her. "Because the Silver Crystal sensed that there was no longer any danger to any of us, it fully awakened all of our abilities, including those of our blood, slowing the aging process tremendously It takes our bodies one hundred years to age bodily one human year I've started only having birthdays once a century, just to make sure I don't get confused"
