Usagi woke up the next morning. Yawning, she opened her eyes. "Luna…"
"Usagi-chan, what is it?"
"Did you hear about yesterday?"
The feline sighed. "Hai, I'm sorry Usagi-chan, but you made the right decision. Some things
have to be done."
Usagi turned on her side to face her mentor. "Why wasn't there any other way?"
"I don't know. Maybe it was part of your destiny."
"Could we ask Pluto?"
"Let's wait a little while before we ask her. She might even come to us." Luna's brow furrowed.
"But let's not hope for that. That is always a bad sign."
"All right." Usagi closed her eyes then opened them again. "Say, Luna, how did you know about
yesterday?"
"Artemis told me. But he said no one told Mamoru. They thought you should do that. Will you?"
Usagi groaned but nodded her head. "What time is it?"
"Almost eight."
"Kuso!" The young blonde sat straight up before she fell back on her bed. She groaned again.
"No school to be late for." Usagi buried her face in her pillow. "For once I want to go to
school."
Luna sat on the young savior's bed and looked down. ::I'm sorry Usagi-chan.::
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
Tsukino Ikuko sat quietly on the couch as she watched her husband pace the length of the living
room.
"What gives her the right to think she can be Sailor Moon?!" Tsukino Kenji yelled out angrily.
"This explains why she is always late getting home! Why she disappears in the middle of the
night! Why she is always so damn tired in the morning! Shimatta!"
Ikuko stood up and walked over to her husband. "Honey, we should let her explain. You know the
news, they twist the stories."
Kenji glared at his wife. "You know as well as I do that there is no mistake in this news story!
It's even on the front page of the paper!" He pointed to the paper on the table.
Ikuko sighed. "Just calm down. Let her explain anyway. What would it hurt?"
Taking a deep breath he sat stiffly down on the couch. His wife gave him a weak smile then sat
down next to him.
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
"Wow…" Shingo looked at the television. "I can't believe it! Usagi! My sister!" Shingo's
excited energy soon began to fade when the trueness of the situation hit him. "Usagi-baka is
the strongest person in the world…!" He starred in awe at the tv before being completely
subdued. "Why her?" He whispered.
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
"Luna, could you go downstairs and see if they already know?"
"Hai, I'll be right back." Luna went downstairs while Usagi changed.
"I guess I'll wear this." Usagi said out loud before changing into a sugar pink t-shirt and a
denim skirt that fell just above her knees.
Luna walked timidly back into the room. "Usagi-chan…it looks bad."
Usagi nodded then walked to her door. "Argiato, Luna. Wish me luck." She gave Luna a sad
smile.
"Good luck." The feline friend returned the sad smile. "I'll go back down in a few minutes if
you want."
"That's fine, bye." Usagi walked quietly and silently down the stairs.
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
Usagi entered the living room and immediately felt the tension. "Mom…dad…good morning…"
"Tsukino Usagi." Her father started out sternly. Ikuko placed a hand on his arm, he drew in a
deep breath. After letting it out he spoke again, "Explain."
Startled, Usagi looked up from the carpet she had been previously starring at. "Argiato." She
said realizing what he meant.
"I'll start from the beginning…I am Sailor Moon. I have been since I was 14. I'm sorry I
didn't tell you when I first became Sailor Moon-- or anytime between then and yesterday. But I
had to keep it a secret. You don't understand, even now, how important it was not to let my
enemies know who I truly am. It would have jeopardized all the lives of everyone I cared about,
including you two. I know my enemies would have found out if I even told a single person. My
identity is known by few others. All the other sailors and several others. I'm so sorry, but
the others were necessary to rid this planet and this universe of the evils that have threatened
it." Usagi closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
"I have something else that is important to tell you two. You may not believe me, but it is
true. Please don't be mad."
"What wouldn't we believe? We already know you are Sailor Moon, what else do you have to hide?"
Ikuko asked.
"You're not my parents." Usagi squeezed her eyes shut as her father exploded and her mother
looked away is dismay.
"What the hell do you mean we're not your parents?! I was in the fucking delivery room! I saw
your mother give birth to you! Stop your damn lying!" Kenji ranted.
Usagi's fists clenched as she listened to her father rant and swear. "You don't understand."
"Don't understand what? The fact that you have been lying to us for years? Or maybe the fact
that you just told us we weren't your parents? What is it Usagi? Sailor Moon or not you are
still our daughter!" Her father yelled before quietly glaring at her.
"I'll explain. One thousand years ago during the Silver Millennium there was a kingdom. The
Moon Kingdom. This kingdom, indeed, existed on the moon. The queen that ruled the kingdom was
Queen Serenity. She gave birth to a daughter whom she name Princess Serenity. Her daughter was
meant to follow in her footsteps and become a gentle and kind ruler also. Her daughter fell in
love with the prince from Earth, Endymion, and spent hours starring at the planet; wishing him
to be with her."
"What is this? A fairy tale?" Kenji demanded.
"Let me finish, it is a true story." Usagi answered her father while he continued to fume.
Usagi took another breath and continued. "The princess of the moon and the prince of Earth were
deeply in love and spent every moment they could together. However, the Moon Kingdom allowed
no one from Earth on the moon and the people from Earth resented those who lived on the moon.
So, it was difficult for the young couple to see each other. Even though they were never suppose
d to be in love and together, they were. But it was also difficult for them to see each other
because they also had their duties.
"On the moon there was frequently balls, dances that the princess was never to fond of because
she could not be with her love at them. But, at the final ball there was to be, her prince came.
Endymion asked her to dance and quietly told her of the situation. There was someone planning
on destroying the Moon Kingdom. And he had offered his services of helping to protect the
kingdom to the queen. Queen Serenity knew he was a good man and accepted his services. Prince
Endymion of Earth would fight for the Moon Kingdom. However, it wasn't likely that he would
come back from the battle. Serenity began to let silent tears slip from her eyes as she made
her way to the balcony with Endymion. She was sad but understood that he had to defend the Moon
Kingdom. She gave him a locket. The locket was shaped like a star and when opened it would
play a sweet melody that symbolized their love. Then the two shared the last kiss they would in
that life."
Ikuko looked at Usagi solemnly trying to understand the story. She had a feeling it had a strong
tie with her daughter.
"Then disaster struck. Endymion was forced to defend his only love. Queen Beryl, the enemy
that was threatening to destroy the Moon Kingdom struck that night. Queen Beryl struck with
hatred and vengeance. She destroyed the castle. She killed the warriors that dared go up
against her. Including the princess' protectors. Those protectors were Sailor Venus, Sailor
Mars, Sailor Mercury, and Sailor Jupiter. Each sailor was a princess and guardian of her own
planet also. Their primary duty was to protect Princess Serenity. Sending their fiercest
attacks against the invading queen, they still perished."
Usagi pushed back the tears that came with the memories. She felt calmer as she saw her mother
struggle with fighting back the tears and her father sitting calmly and motionlessly. Usagi
continued with her story…
"After destroying the defenders of the kingdom, the evil queen set her sights on the princess.
She began to taunt Princess Serenity and began to power up to attack the small princess. When,
suddenly, Endymion appeared in front of Serenity. He unsheathed his sword as he verbally fought
Queen Beryl. Beryl soon sent an attack against Endymion sending him flying into the air, in
the captive winds the evil queen created to hold him in the air. The princess gasped as she
watched her prince struggle. She yelled his name and began to run to him. She leaped into the
air and caught his hand. The two struggled to keep holding each other's hand and smiled at
their achievement. Queen Beryl soon caught onto this and sent a powerful lightning bolt to each
of them, killing them instantly.
"Queen Serenity had been watching this and felt her heart fill with sorrow. She fell to the
ground in despair. Grimacing she slowly pulled out a pink wand with a crescent moon on top of
it. 'I have to do this. It is the only thing I can do to save her, my only daughter.' the
queen said. A small crystal ball, the Ginzuisho, appeared in Queen Serenity's hand. She placed
the ball onto the wand. Raising the wand she yelled 'Cosmic Moon Power'. Thus, destroying the
evil Queen Beryl and saving all those who had fallen for her kingdom. The fallen ones were sent
a thousand years into the future to live happy, peaceful lives.
"This, however, did not last. In the future those of the Moon Kingdom were reincarnated.
Including the princess, her protectors, and her prince. But, if necessary, each one was granted
a special power to transform them into a senshi if evil were to ever threaten them again. And,
once again, it did. Queen Beryl came back from her grave in the Negaverse which Queen Serenity
had sealed her into. The first Sailor Senshi to realize her powers was the Senshi of the Moon,
Princess Serenity, the person you two know more commonly as Sailor Moon."
Kenji looked at his daughter. "Is this true?" He asked his voice barely audible.
Gulping, Usagi nodded. "I'm so sorry." She whispered. "I am simply a reincarnation of Princess
Serenity. Queen Serenity may be my first mother, but you two are still my parents no matter
what. I love you both." Emotion clogged in her throat as she starred at her parents.
Ikuko stood up and hugged her daughter. "I love you too, sweetheart. I'm so happy I was able
to also be your mother." Usagi hugged her mother back tears escaping her eyes.
"Argiato…argiato. I'm so happy you understand. It has been difficult. So difficult to keep
this from you two. I love you both so much!"
Kenji gazed at his daughter and wife then joined them. "Gomen. We are proud of you, my
daughter."
Usagi hugged them both tightly letting her tears of joy run off her face.
------------
Shingo stood at the doorway looking at Usagi and his parents. "Is that the whole story?" He
asked quietly.
Startled the threesome looked at him. A small, timid creature standing unsurely in the doorway.
He repeated his question, "Is that the whole story? Everything you have kept from us?"
Stunned by her brothers perception, she said nothing.
"Are you going to answer me?"
"I will answer for her."
Luna walked into the living room, jumping up on the coffee table in the center of the room.
"My name is Luna and Usagi-chan will always have secrets. She has those secrets to protect
the ones she cares about. It is not her fault, she just doesn't want to see any of you hurt."
The three family members once again stood in their places stunned.
"Luna. What are you going to say?" Usagi asked worriedly.
"Everything within my bounds. Usagi-chan, I am very proud of you, you told your life on the
Moon Kingdom very well. Now I shall add more.
"I am Luna. I am a talking cat-- but I'm sure you knew that by now. I have also been
reincarnated to be a mentor and guide to Usagi-chan. On the Moon Kingdom, I was Queen
Serenity's right-hand guide also. I helped her organize everything, give her a heads up on
things, and figure out certain mysteries. I am now with Usagi-chan doing the same job.
I wake her up each morning, make sure is always around when there is trouble, and I also protect
her. I may not be able to physically protect her but I do my share. I am the one that she can
always come to when she is sad, frustrated, or anything else of the like. Being the savior of
the universe is no easy task, as I am sure Usagi-chan knows by now." Usagi smiled weakly and
Luna continued.
"I am there to help Usagi-chan with strategies in her battles and help her bring out her
strength. In the past she has needed to use the power of the Ginzuisho. Using to the Ginzuisho
at its maximum power will kill the user. Usagi-chan has had to do this three times."
Ikuko gasped with her hands at her mouth as her husband grimaced. Shingo gaped at the new
information.
"The first time was to get rid of Queen Beryl permanently. Sailor Moon combined her power and
the power of jer deceased friends with that of the ginzuisho. This killed Queen Beryl and
Sailor Moon. Then, Sailor Moon laid on the icy ground and spoke her last words of her only
desire, to be a normal teenager. The ginzuisho heard this desire and reincarnated Sailor Moon,
her friends, and Endymion. Endymion had also died during the final battle with Queen Beryl.
All the senshi were reincarnated into lives with forgotten memories. But, soon they were
awakened once again to fight more evil. Fighting together, they eventually came upon an enemy
who called himself Wise Man.
"The Wise Man fought Sailor Moon hard, he used underhanded tactics and forced her to use the
full power of her silver crystal. However, Usagi-chan was also fighting along side her friends,
Endymion, and her future daughter. Sailor Moon's entire battle with the Wise Man took place in
the future. In the future Endymion and Usagi-chan marry and rule Crystal Tokyo. Usagi-chan
also gives birth to a daughter in the future. Usagi-chan met her future daughter and fought
along side her. Sailor Moon, her future daughter, Endymion, and her four senshi fought the Wise
Man. The battle ended with Sailor Moon using the full power of her ginzuisho and her future
daughter using the full power of the future ginzuisho. The two lived through the battle because
they each wished for the other to continue living. The ginzuisho once again granted the user's
desire.
"The third time she used the ginzuisho at its full power she--" Luna stopped for a moment and
looked at the family. They looked like that was all the information they could handle for the
time being.
"That is all I have to say for now. Some day you will know the rest of the story, but not now."
Kenji sat down shakily. "That was more than I ever expected." He murmured. He placed his
hands over his eyes. "And there's still more we don't know." Ikuko sat down next to her
husband. "But we know enough for now. Argiato, Luna." Ikuko said looking the feline.
Luna nodded.
"Shingo? Are you all right with this?" Usagi asked him.
"Yeah…just more…than I thought you could do…that's all…" He said quietly.
"Gomen. I'm sorry for putting you all through this. Please forgive me."
"Of course we forgive you." Ikuko said.
"Hai, you're our daughter." Kenji smiled.
"And you are my sister." Shingo grinned.
Usagi looked at them happiness filling her eyes.
"Argiato. Argiato all."

"What gives her the right to think she can be Sailor Moon?!" Tsukino Kenji yelled out angrily.

Queen Beryl. Beryl soon sent an attack against Endymion sending him flying into the air, in

Moon Kingdom very well. Now I shall add more.
"I am Luna. I am a talking cat-- but I'm sure you knew that by now. I have also been
reincarnated to be a mentor and guide to Usagi-chan. On the Moon Kingdom, I was Queen
Serenity's right-hand guide also. I helped her organize everything, give her a heads up on
things, and figure out certain mysteries. I am now with Usagi-chan doing the same job.
I wake her up each morning, make sure is always around when there is trouble, and I also protect
her. I may not be able to physically protect her but I do my share. I am the one that she can
always come to when she is sad, frustrated, or anything else of the like. Being the savior of
the universe is no easy task, as I am sure Usagi-chan knows by now." Usagi smiled weakly and
Luna continued.
"I am there to help Usagi-chan with strategies in her battles and help her bring out her
strength. In the past she has needed to use the power of the Ginzuisho. Using to the Ginzuisho
at its maximum power will kill the user. Usagi-chan has had to do this three times."
Ikuko gasped with her hands at her mouth as her husband grimaced. Shingo gaped at the new
information.
"The first time was to get rid of Queen Beryl permanently. Sailor Moon combined her power and
the power of jer deceased friends with that of the ginzuisho. This killed Queen Beryl and
Sailor Moon. Then, Sailor Moon laid on the icy ground and spoke her last words of her only
desire, to be a normal teenager. The ginzuisho heard this desire and reincarnated Sailor Moon,
her friends, and Endymion. Endymion had also died during the final battle with Queen Beryl.
All the senshi were reincarnated into lives with forgotten memories. But, soon they were
awakened once again to fight more evil. Fighting together, they eventually came upon an enemy
who called himself Wise Man.
"The Wise Man fought Sailor Moon hard, he used underhanded tactics and forced her to use the
full power of her silver crystal. However, Usagi-chan was also fighting along side her friends,
Endymion, and her future daughter. Sailor Moon's entire battle with the Wise Man took place in
the future. In the future Endymion and Usagi-chan marry and rule Crystal Tokyo. Usagi-chan
also gives birth to a daughter in the future. Usagi-chan met her future daughter and fought
along side her. Sailor Moon, her future daughter, Endymion, and her four senshi fought the Wise
Man. The battle ended with Sailor Moon using the full power of her ginzuisho and her future
daughter using the full power of the future ginzuisho. The two lived through the battle because
they each wished for the other to continue living. The ginzuisho once again granted the user's
desire.
"The third time she used the ginzuisho at its full power she--" Luna stopped for a moment and
looked at the family. They looked like that was all the information they could handle for the
time being.
"That is all I have to say for now. Some day you will know the rest of the story, but not now."
Kenji sat down shakily. "That was more than I ever expected." He murmured. He placed his
hands over his eyes. "And there's still more we don't know." Ikuko sat down next to her
husband. "But we know enough for now. Argiato, Luna." Ikuko said looking the feline.
Luna nodded.
"Shingo? Are you all right with this?" Usagi asked him.
"Yeah…just more…than I thought you could do…that's all…" He said quietly.
"Gomen. I'm sorry for putting you all through this. Please forgive me."
"Of course we forgive you." Ikuko said.
"Hai, you're our daughter." Kenji smiled.
"And you are my sister." Shingo grinned.
Usagi looked at them happiness filling her eyes.
"Argiato. Argiato all."
