A Timeless Tale part 15: Turning Point
By
Lance the Flamesniper
Wraith Wills considered himself a logical person. Past lives? They didn't exist save in the minds of a hypnotist. Magic? That could be explained away as slight of hand, smoke and mirrors. And time/pan-dimensional travel? It was the stuff of B-movies and Matt's mangas. However, seeing his best friend rise from the ground and shift from normal clothes to something out of L'mort Artur....
Suffice to say that if Wraith's mind was a computer he'd be reading 'Program Sanity.sys has experienced a fatal error. Attempting to reboot' on his mental monitor.
Sitting in the fire room of the temple with eight senshi, a fire priestess (Whom 'demanded' to know what this was all about) and their friend Lance was difficult as the eternal fire kept the place plenty hot. Wraith and Matt were roasting while Lance didn't even seem to notice the heat. Must be some martial art thing. They both thought. A few hours later Lance finished his explanation.
"Okay let me see if I got this straight," Wraith said. "Some hooded freak show stabs you and Sailor Pluto here and then some dead queen from an intergalactic Kingdom came to you."
"That's Right," Lance said as he cast an amused glance at the Timeless Senshi next to him.
"And she tells you that you were some kind of prince-martial arts master in her kingdom," Matt continued.
"Right again," Sailor Pluto said offhandedly. It was getting really uncomfortable seeing the looks passing between Lance and Sailor Pluto.
"Not only that but she tells you that Matt an' I are princes too?" Wraith added.
"That's it exactly," Lance replied as he gazed into Sailor Pluto's eyes.
"And that explains why you suddenly look like Prince Valiant how?" Wraith asked. "And dammit would you take your eyes off of Sailor Pluto for ten damn seconds!?"
"To answer your second question, no. As for your first question, I don't really know," Lance declared.
"So I take it you two knew each other back during the Moon Kingdom?" Amy asked to clarify.
There was mischief in Setsuna's eyes when she answered. "Yes. We knew each other. We knew each other vary well."
Most of the girls present, as well as Wraith and Matt caught the meaning though Hotaru didn't. However the fact that this information had even Amy blushing meant it must have had something to do with intimacy.
"Wait," Sailor Moon cut in as a past memory cut in. "If you knew him that way how did you get to be Time Guardian?"
"That's right," Sailor Uranus replied as she remembered. "Only a Virgin could become a Time Guardian."
"Actually the rule said that you had to be a virgin to get the post, not that you had to stay a virgin," Setsuna replied with a slight blush.
"Oh," Came several voices.
"It is getting late in the day. Perhaps we should end this impromptu meeting," Lance suggested then leaned over and whispered something in Sailor Pluto's ear. She looked surprised then nodded vigorously and smiled.
Matt and Wraith noticed that and decided to keep a close eye on Lance. To that end they spent the rest of the day helping with his chores.

For Lance Jayd his near death experience had shown him something. It had shown him what he lost a long time ago. And now 6,000 years later he was going to make sure he never lost it again. Even as he spoke Sailor Uranus or someone else that Sailor Pluto trusted would be coming to get him. Doubt still ground through him, but that was how it should be.
He was at a turning point. He could turn away now; renounce all of this as well as his nearly completed quest. Or he could go further. He could take his final step. Then there would be no turning back. But then if he went back he'd die in a week, where as going forward meant he "died" tonight. He looked at himself in the mirror, hesitated then nodded. There would be no turning back.
"You're up to something Jayd," Wraith hissed as he unrolled his sleeping bag.
"Who me?" Lance answered innocently as his two friends began an uninvited sleep over.
"Yes you. And quit with those innocent looks! You and Sailor Pluto have something planned and we plan to stop it," Matt replied.
"And why's that?" Lance asked as his eyes narrowed.
"Look. You came here tryin' to find your dream gal. You find her and this Sailor Pluto chick starts showing interest in you. You proclaim your eternal love or whatever for Setsuna now you and Sailor Pluto are planning something. So we're going to stay right here so you don't screw things up," Wraith countered.
"Yeah! You can't have both Sailor Pluto and Setsuna!" Matt chimed in.
Oh if you only knew... Thought Lance. "So you two plan to keep watch on me?"
"Yes." They both replied.
"I see," Lance replied as he quickly hit their shiatsu sleep points. "A weapons master knows many forms of fighting. Pleasant dreams my friends."
*******
Several moments later Lance stepped out of the temple's living area. He was clad in his green dress shirt and black dress pants. He looked at his watch then smiled as a fire red Ferrari pulled into sight. Somehow he knew she'd be the one to come get him.
"You ready to go soldier boy?" Amara Ten'ou asked.
"As ready as I can be Sailor Uranus," Lance replied.
"So you did figure it out," Amara stated.
"Yes. But I'm not telling a soul about any of you. What happens tonight will bind my fate to the Senshi thoroughly," Lance told her.
********
Setsuna paced nervously. She'd agreed to this. She knew what was going to happen next. She'd wait 6,000 years for this. She heard the car arrive, and within moments Lance was holding her tightly.
"Are you ready my love?" He asked nervously.
"As ready as I can be," she answered. "You know we've only know each other a little more than two weeks?"
"Maybe this time around. I wanted to do this with you the first time we reunited," He replied.
"Shall we then?"
"Yes," Lance replied as they walked into the church.
An hour later Lance Jayd "died" and was reborn Lance Meioh.
*********
"No! No! NO!" Necros roared as he watched the ceremony. "Swordmaster Adept you idiot! You failed!"
"It's only a minor setback. I'll make sure he doesn't survive next time," The hooded man replied.
"You'd better otherwise your beloved stays dead. Got me?"
The hooded man pulled back his hood revealing shoulder length white hair that framed an aristocratic face that featured ice blue eyes. Under his cloak was clearly visible the gray costume of a Negaverse General. "I, Malachite, will not fail you again."
"You had best not, Malachite. I went through a lot of trouble to resurrect you. Fail me again and wisdom will tell you not to return."
With that Malachite bowed and disappeared. He had a lot of planning to do....
