Kenshi Aino: - Locking eyes with Serenity Graceson would look toward the guard “ Stay outside .. “ She said in a firm tone of voice. “ It was Serenity in which she was only allowing to enter . The guard would look to Graceson then to Serenity. Slowly the male backed away and shifted to the wall leaning against it to give the two women privacy. Graceson turning around would walk back to her ice cream picking it up moving to the food dispenser unit she placed the plate there and pressed a button which would dematerialized the very plate. “ Two mugs of green tea.. “ She called out to the computer which would dispense the two mugs as ordered. Grasping both mugs the Admiral Imperial Knight would walk toward Serenity to give her a mug while sipping her own . “ Tell me Lady Serenity... What do you know about the Grand Elder of the Kage family? “ She asked softly. - Mitsukai meanwhile having been listening to his sister looked at her from the corner of his eye . “ Fine..” He called out to her and would (c)
Kenshi Aino: cross his arms “ Then assign myself to on’t have something happen to my little sister. “ He called out firmly to her. “ There has been too much happening and the time to just be relaxing isn’t right now. “ he muttered out. “ Looking to the very garden he sighed and kneeled down in front of a few flowers. “ This place use to look a lot bigger when we were kids.. “ He called out and chuckled . - (e)
Chibiusa: She made a face to him. “We are the same age Angel..You were just born first.” She huffed a little bit and then stares down at him a bit. Touching over one of the flowers once more. “Yeah. We used to play hide and seek here a lot too with Kenshi. And you guys would always try and scare me.” Shakes her head a little bit and stands up to stretch. She grabbed onto his hand and started to tug him. “Come, walk with me.” -e-
Tsukino Usagi: Serenity inwardly sighed in relief when Graceson agreed to speak to her; she had nearly expected her to decline. She would give Vance a nod to adhere to Graceson's request, following Graceson inside. It hadn't occurred to her until now the idea of having drinks let alone food was now a possibility when she heard Graceson mention tea. "I'll pass…" She looked away after placing the mug down, a hint of uncertainty had shown after being a hologram for as long as she had. Graceson's mention of the Kage family had perplexed her, however. "I don't know much about him... I've only heard so much about the Kage family, most of what I've heard in passing conversations… Why?" (e)
Kenshi Aino: - Sipping on her own tea Graceson listened to Serenity’s reply against the tea then took in her reply to the answer of her question upon the Kage family. Walking to the window she looked out at space. Closing her eyes she slowly turned her head to Serenity “ Lady Serenity... The Kage Family is a complex and powerful family which are experts in magical spells which rival the powers and ability of the Outer Beings. Among them Sota Kage the Grand Elder of that Family. Sighing she sat down her cup and would walked in front of Serenity. I married the Grand Elder when his eldest child was but a little girl and aided in raising that child as well as aiding in maintaining peaceful relations with that Family. By now you're most likely wondering what that has to do with my health.. It seems that I am with child by my husband... “ She said calmly and smiled. “ I have faced countless youma in battle , Commanded fleets and teams into battle. Trained one of the most stubborn Aino’s I have ever (c)
Kenshi Aino: met in my family. Be a mother to a child whom lost her mother at a young age.. But I have never been a mother naturally... or ever given birth... My work has stressed my body and it has taken its toll. I am faced between my duty as an Imperial Knight and my duty to this child... I cannot waver from either... As an Imperial Knight Admiral I cannot turn away from the protection of this realm especially in a time of war. The Imperial Court was ordered to stand by and watch your final acts as Queen... I refuse to stand by and watch a repeat in history if this Dark Moon Clan wishes for battle. I am left with weathing this storm of protecting this child and doing my job as an Admiral and I plan to do both accordingly. “ She said and would sit down. Mitsukai meanwhile would raise a brow at his sibling “ Yeah your right we are the same age but I am the elder brother and no matter what you are my little sister and apart of my responsibility as well as Crystal Tokyo itself while our parents (c)
Kenshi Aino: are gone. If something happens with me you’ll be who earth turns to... “ He said and felt her tugging at his hand only to begin walking with her “ Where in this garden would you like to walk sister? We know this place inside and out. Why don’t we go to the arcade. Ya know Haruka's all time high school for the Sailor V game has yet to be broken we can always try to break it “ (e)
Chibiusa: Squeezed his hand a little as when he mentioned if anything were to happen to their parents and him she would take the throne. That terrified her, there was no way she could be a ready for something like that. Taking over an entire kingdom..on her own? The princess would continue to walk until they were over toward the pond. It was always relaxing to look at. Sometimes she would see swans swimming along the water. Letting go of his hand she took in a deep breath and closed her eyes. “For once I am not in the mood for video games....though I can always go for something sweet to eat.” Placed her hands behind her back and turned to him with a small smile. -e-
Tsukino Usagi: Serenity sat down with her hands folded on her lap, sighing. Graceson had placed her in a difficult situation. As a mother of two, Serenity had known how difficult pregnancy was. For once she was actually thankful that Nomen had sent her instead of going himself, uncertainty on how he'd handle the situation rose in her mind. But from how he had acted earlier Serenity had only assumed that he hadn't known about Graceson's marriage. "Do you know when this occurred? Does he know?" She asked as she'd tilted her head until she heard her next remark. She remained silent for quite a while, contemplating on the matter. "Admiral… While I'm very happy for you on this…I have had children twice. Both pregnancies were difficult, don't you recall? Even getting myself to eat…even now…will be more than a challenge in itself. I know how you pride yourself with your work and I know that I would personally not want anyone else in (c)
Tsukino Usagi: charge of the Imperial Court, but as you do not know how pregnancy will take its toll on your body…it might be wise to take a temporary leave. At the most take a step back and allow someone to handle your most stressful tasks…" She said calmly, closing her eyes. "I do not know what type of situation we are in…but I'm hopeful that a situation won't go from bad to worse as it had in the past. I'm…trying to ensure that my presence isn't known yet. If it becomes known, any war we face against my brother…will become an issue. This might be a more appropriate time for you to do this…" (e)
Kenshi Aino: Mitsukai meanwhile would listen to Chibis speaking and smiled “ alright we can get something to eat instead . “ He called out with a nod and would soon walk toward his sister only to touch her shoulder lightly . “ Try not to be scared. I want to show you something in which my new teacher has been showing me. It’s pretty cool. “ he called out while a white aura soon formed along the male. With the increase of Mitsukai’s power the male would speak out “ Zero Shift “ With that it would reveal a rather advanced form of teleportation leaving from the very earth Palace and heading in front of what appeared to be a whole different world which was outside of the Milky Way Galaxy “ Sis allow me to welcome you to Xea-Prime. It is a vacation planet. The whole planet is dedicated to vacationing. Everything here is free they have advanced to the point spending funds here no longer exist and their technology rivals that of the Moon Kingdom. We can find somewhere to eat here. (c)
Kenshi Aino: Juuuust .. don't flirt with the guys here.. see the guys here have a habit of flirting to fain wives and they have more than one wife.. very confusing all I know is if their head wife sees you flirting with their man.. they will try to challenge you to combat..We don't need that . (e) + (c) - Stepping back to allow someone else handle the Imperial court for a short amount of time. Graceson had seen what this Pearl was capable of. He was different from many Dark Moon members and here Serenity was asking her to step back? Closing her eyes she leaned her head back. “ Serenity ... “ she called out to her and picked up her tea again. Hell she couldn’t even get another drink of her tea so simply just say the mug down “ What you ask of me is to leave the Imperial Court at a time of war. Not only is it unwise it is unsound. My Vice Admiral has no experience dealing against the Black Moon. He is a good Knight .. But putting him in charge at this point in time is asking him to walk in (c)
Kenshi Aino: to a dark room and defend himself against a foe he has no idea what they are capable of doing. Pearl is unlike any other Dark Moon member I have seen and I have seen a good amount , some in which your own daughter has no record of. He by far is the most dangerous. I cannot just take a step back it puts the Imperial Court at risk.. It puts this realm at risk. “ She called out firmly. It was then a portal could be seen opening into the very room . It had been the same silver haired male which had aided Graceson in the future of Crystal Tokyo , Sota. The silver haired Kage would smile watching both women . “ Why hello there ladies.. I hope you two don’t mind me... popping in. “ he said and chuckled . The very guard outside having sensed the male’s energy would open the front door to step in taking out a long bladed sword. Sota noticing the guard would raise his hands up “ easy there big guy, I come in peace. “ he called out. Graceson running her hand over her face would look toward (c)
Kenshi Aino: the Kage then to Serenity . Lady Serenity ... Allow me to introduce.. My husband .. Sota Kage . “ She called out and glared at the male. The male taking out a bag of what appeared to be gummy bears would eat them one by one “ Have you ladies ever tried this thing earthlings call candy it is most enjoyable. “ Excuse me .. “ She called out to Serenity only to look to Sota speaking in a low tone of voice. “ Why are you here ? Your not supposed to be here.. “ Sota only would smile poking Graceson’s nose “ Here have a gummy bear love. I’m sure you and the baby would enjoy such... “ Graceson’s eyes would go wide “ How did you.... “ The male snickered cutting Graceson off “ Kage .. “ He said pointing to himself and would look toward Serenity . “ Lady Serenity “ he then spoke out . “ I think I have a very simple way to assure my wife doing her duties safely and her not being in harm's way. Graceson would then turn to Sota “ NO.. “ she said firmly though the male simply would snap his (c)
Kenshi Aino: which in that instant a powerful burst of energy from the male could be sensed . He with that energy would move to teleport Graceson to another couch “ one moment dear “ He called out and turned back to Serenity . Graceson would huff picking up a pillow and tossing it at Sota. Meanwhile he would speak “ I can always have my daughter come and .. “ He then caught the pillow and tossed it aside “ watch over Graceson. Any combat in which she would be faced with my daughter is more than capable of handling such. I’m pretty sure she’d enjoy seeing her stepmother again anyway... She I’m sure has missed her. With your permission of course seeing as you are wielding the Bands of the Imperial Court. I can only assume Lord Nomen has placed you in charge of the Imperial court matters over my wife? “ He said smiling.. Graceson soon stood up “ How do you know Lord Nomen Sota ? “ She shouted . Sota snapped his fingers again placing s gummy bear into Graceson’s mouth through teleportation .(c)
Kenshi Aino: Graceson growled and spit the gummy bear at Sota’s head while he resumed speaking “ I am friends with Lord Nomen. “ he said and got hit in the head with the gummy bear.. That was very rude hunnie... “ He then called out . “ Graceson only turned her head to the side “ I am the Admiral of the Imperial Court I do not need protection from ...... my own step daughter.. It is demeaning .. “ She said and leaned back . Sota only sighed “ If anything it is respect for a Kage to protect their elder... Even though I’m higher ranked and more powerful then many Kages some protect me.. “ Still Graceson kept turned from him. “ I don’t need protection. “ (e)
Tsukino Usagi: "Admiral…we'll always face something unknown to us at least once in our lifetime. If you're using this as an excuse to not adhere to this…" She trailed off until she saw the silver haired Kage appear, standing up from her seat. When Vance entered the room, Serenity was startled, but quickly eased herself when an introduction was made. "I'm alright…" She reassured Vance. She then laughed lowly when she heard Sota's remark about candy, observing the two interact as she'd place her hand against her lips. "Quite…an unexpected turn of events, I'll admit…but it's a pleasure to meet you." How had this Kage known what they were discussing, Serenity briefly wondered as she'd tilt her curiously as she gazed towards Graceson. It was his comment on the band that Nomen handed her that surprised her even more. "You know what this is?" She inquired, holding up her wrist. "I…do not know if this is appropriate for me to decide even wearing (c)
Tsukino Usagi: this…" She admitted. "While you might be friends with my husband, this sounds like a verdict that's more appropriate for him to decide… I cannot summon him. However it seems that the admiral refuses to go with my choice… let alone your own decision…" She closed her eyes for a brief moment, did they need more interference from outsiders? "Perhaps I'll speak on this matter with him…unless you desire to summon him." (e)
Death Phantom: - Graceson having heard Serenity’s words kept her head turned to the side . The Imperial Knight was one stubborn woman. “ So cause I’m with child you want me to take a step back. I am not some helpless damsel. “ She thought to herself and sighed. Slowly she stood up and looked toward Serenity. It seemed the moon queen didn’t want to give a final verdict and Graceson wasn’t going to bother staying around for one from Nomen. Letting out a deep breath she would look to Sota “ I’ll make the choice for you all.. “ She called out . “ In form my step daughter to come here. Walking toward Serenity she would simply lock her eyes upon the woman . “ I will leave The Imperial Advisor in charge of Imperial Command . However the overall case of the Dark Moon I will lead in the hands of Mitsukai Chiba. He is a tactically trained General who has more combat experience then some of the Vice Admirals promoted. There is no time to play bureaucrats and sitting behind desks making choices. That time (c)
Death Phantom: is over Lady Serenity... As of today I here my temporality promote Mitsukai Chiba as acting Vice Admiral. Under the circumstances I have no choice but to expel Kenshi Aino from jail early and reinstate his Captain rank. However if Kenshi Aino pulls another stunt as he has done I’ll see to it that he is expelled from the Imperial Court. This is effective as of now. “ She said and would sigh looking toward Serenity “ Permission to be ..... Medically relieved of Duty? “ She called out toward Serenity. Sota to say the least was shocked by Graceson's words , everything this woman said . He expected her to put up a fight in all truth but she just suddenly stopped. Graceson had a plan however the woman always had a plan. Being relived was key however. She would await Serenity’s response . Sota moving toward both women would raise a brow “ Just like that ... no stubbornness .. No back talk .. No refusing .. Graceson would turn to Sota and shake her head “ I await my step daughter “ She (c)
Death Phantom: spoke out calmly. Sota backing away would send a link to his very daughter to s . Kina meanwhile had been leading both Rei and their newly friend out of the bar. Staggering from side to side she would yell out . “ I AM QUEEN OF DRINKS“ She called out only to stop and sit down on a random car giggling only to look toward both females taking out a set of keys “ Sooooo which one of you women know how to drive ? “ She called out and flung the keys around “ Cause right noooow I’m seeeeeeeeing four of you ....... annnnnnnd I’m NOOOOT leaving my car..... We should go to Ammmi I want to seee Ammmmi , NOOO lets see BUNNNNNNNNNNNNNY “ She called out and laid down across the hood . (c)
Death Phantom: Wiseman meanwhile having heard the words of his very aunt would chuckle “ Yup your still no fun “ He called out only to phase to hover over the grave of the elder Moon queen .” My aunt you are welcome to do whatever you’d like to your hearts content. Just know that if you so do choose to have fun with me my success is your success. If I go.. You go just like you said . “ He said only to look to Voima from the corner of his eye . It was then he was about to say something however Wise Man quickly would phase as a powerful wave of energy could be felt mainly this wave was targeted at both Wise Man and his very aunt however not Voima . A sudden form of blue flicks could be seen forming only for a rather young silver haired male to be seen . Those eyes of his seemed to lock on upon Wise Man as well as Voima. “ Why.... are you here? “ The young male had been a member of the House of Kage the Grand Elder’s student Seiji Kage . - (e)
Minako Aino: Rei was having a giggle fit at Kina's words, trying hard to walk straight. Thankfully the cold water helped her walk without tripping over her own feet. Rei shook her head at the mention of driving."It can't be me, i am still...oh hell. I'm still drunk!" Rei would move to lean against that car. Those eyes falling on Hikaru. "Looks like you are the one driving, and we can't see Ami. She is in America remember?" It was quite the sight to see both Rei and Kina drunk. Hikaru let out a soft sigh, as the people around were beginning to give them looks that they were crazy. Hikaru held out her hand towards Kina with a smile. "I'll drive us there, you just point the way. Though I'll only go as far as the crystal palace gates." That smile still staying but not mentioning her reason behind it. The Female would sense that wave of energy, as her own body would phase into the darkness. Not having enough time to summon her orb. Though she got knicked by it, as her form would reappear. Looking at the male. "You.." -e-
Tsukino Usagi: Serenity sighed when she began listening to Graceson. Had this woman already forgotten that she had been a hologram for several thousands of years? Serenity only had a couple of resources in order to keep up with what was going on with state of affairs, and even the bugs that Nomen had placed around the Earth….well, let's just say Serenity felt that it was the equivalent of watching a documentary. The Dark Moon…. Serenity had only very little experience of. Serenity had never once before seen Graceson faint, and for that reason alone Serenity felt this justified. Serenity would not retort to the admiral, she was simply relieved that she agreed to her advice. "Permission granted," Serenity nodded her head. Tenrai meanwhile had been in a meeting within the Kage realm when she heard Sota's summon. After dismissing herself from the meeting, she would teleport herself to where Sota and company were. The Kage had been wearing Kage attire that (c)
Tsukino Usagi: was appropriate for a meeting; her long, silver hair that trailed several feet on the floor had been tied up in several barrettes. Normally when outside of the Kage realm, Tenrai had become accustomed to having her hair shorter. "You summoned me?" Serenity upon hearing Sota would sigh. "She could still change her mind…" It was remarks like this that Serenity had actually wished she had access to telepathy. Voima meanwhile shook her head observing the two interact; it had nonetheless amused the Kage immensely. When the energy wave was felt by Wiseman and the aunt, Voima had turned to narrowly look towards Seiji. "Little brother…?" (e)
Death Phantom: - Sota looking to his daughter would smile “ Do not fret Lady Serenity ,Tenrai will be able to watch over her step mother easily.” He said and would turn to the female Kage. “ Tenrai , Your step mother is with child. I am leaving it to you to make sure nothing happens to her and to defend her against any possible combat. She isn’t to get into any fights. “ He said and would smile “ Plus it gives you two time to spend together , to meet the other side of your family in a way as well. I will tend to your meetings. “ Sota said and began floating, with that the male would slowly phase. Graceson meanwhile sat back down turning her head to the side again “ This is demeaning . “ She thought to herself . “ I am the Court Judge Admiral of the Imperial Court. Why is it I have to be watched by my own step Child ?” She thought to herself . “ I can defend myself . “ She thought and leaned back sighing . “ Is there anything else Lady Serenity ? If not.... I wish to be alone.... “ She said and (c)
Death Phantom: laid down. She was thinking to herself as to how to use the fact she was now off duty something RARE to her advantage in order to handle the Dark Moon. Kina meanwhile would sigh having heard Rei’s words then toss the keys to Hikaru “ Alright “ She called out in s slurred tone of voice and got into the passenger side of the char getting in. Leaning back she waited for both of the other females to get into the car “ We can go toooooo We can go to the earth palace then they should have some more drinks there pluuuus well get to check on my niece annnd Angel “ She called out and turned to Rei pointing to Rei “ Rei-Rei I bet Angel would enjoy going out with yooouuuuu “ She called out and turned around laughing some. “ Seiji meanwhile looked to all three Voima , Wise man and his aunt. “ Elder sister.. “ Seiji called out calmly. “ There are two reasons why I am here... one - for the freedom our mother which ironically you have remained with this vile being despite him controlling our (c)
Death Phantom: mother. Two I am here because I have been watching events unfold from a far. Seiji purposely blocked the very grave of the elder moon queen . “ Which brings me to my second reason .. To not allow you to defile this grave .. “ He called out . Wise Man’s eyes would begin to glow red and the very form began shifting turning into a black shadow like image which stood over 8'3 feet tall “ You DARE OPPOSE ME BOY... OUT OF MY WAY “ Seiji would remain where he was only raising one finger upward. “ I wonder what would happen... if I destroyed this whole grave site .... everything.... Do not test me... You will comply to these demands Kaos... Or I will seal you myself.. “ (e)
Minako Aino: The Aunt would raise a hand to her face and gently shook her head at this. "Nephew..i just woke up and already we have someone attacking." The female was just waking up and already was dealing with problems, as this is why she always slept. Those hands moved to her hips, as she looked at Seiji. "We will leave this grave site. I have a better idea Nephew and i am only going to help you this once. What you do with her, is up to you. I will tell you one thing though.. " Her eyes went back to her Nephew. "Don't underestimate her." With that said. The female would hold out her palm, as her eyes were closed. Darkness began to spiral down that arm and into her palm. A rather large black orb would begin to form, before she dropped the glass black orb into the ground. Dark fire would begin to outline a human being, as then a dark flash would explode from that flame. Once the light show was over, a woman with long silver hair that reached unto -c-
Minako Aino: the ground itself. A long black dress that ended on the ground as well. A simple red spikes would outline from the left waist to the other waist. Her cleavage was covered by a black cloth while she had a silver marking tattoo on her forehead. To top it off a black Ornament on her head that resembled the sun but was the color black. The figure was glowing different colors, as it was in a deep sleep. The Aunt opened her eyes and let her palm rest at her side, before speaking to her Nephew. "Meet Apsu. Dark Queen of the 40th century, and also recruited and mind twisted five girls and gave them the power equal to those of the inners, if not stronger." With that said, the female stepped back. "The finishing touch is your darkness Nephew." Rei would get in the backseat, as she blinked hearing Kina. Her face flushed a bright red. "K-kina, what are you talking about?! Me and Angel? i just can't see me with him." Hikaru would get into the driver side, putting in the key and turning the -c-
Minako Aino: engine on. There she would put on her seat belt, put the car and drive and would begin driving to the Earth Palace. -e-
Tsukino Usagi: Tenrai would nod her head in a greeting fashion when Sota addressed her, but the news surprised the Kage and it showed on her features. "Congratulations to both of you," she said cheerfully. Tenrai wasn't that type of daughter who would throw a fit when a new child was on its way. In fact, she welcomed it. The simple fact that she was with child was stunning. "Very well, father. It should be an…interesting task." The Kage would then use her power to change her own appearance to something more suitable for the realm. She would alter her hair length to her mid-waist and it was let down from its ponytail. Her clothes would also change to ankle-length black pants, white blouse and a matching black jacket. "Stepmother, if you'd like, I can step out and go to the Mess Hall?" Serenity would gaze towards Sota and listen, but when he phased she'd turn her attention to Graceson. (c)
Tsukino Usagi: "Very well… I'll inform Nomen of this decision. This entire conversation…will be kept private between us as much as possible. If you desire to keep this a secret in entirety, I would consider making a reason for Tenrai to be here… Please…take it easy and take my own pregnancy difficulties into consideration. You're making a wiser choice for the child." Serenity would then take her leave, walking out of Graceson's room and would look towards Vance. "Thank you for this, please take me back to Nomen?" Meanwhile Voima was unfazed by Seiji's remarks about her mother and wouldn't even address the matter. Did he really assume that she cared? Wiseman would have known this fact that she could care less about her mother. On top of that her mother was rarely summoned. In fact in Voima's opinion it was the same matter as not judging a book simply by its cover. "This is ridiculous…" She'd speak telepathically to Wiseman's alternate (c)
Tsukino Usagi: form, face-palming when the other female had revealed another person. Did she really think it was wise to bring her out in front of her brother? Meanwhile a female voice belonging to that of Guardian Cosmos could be heard speaking telepathically to Seiji. Just because the guardian had remained within the Galaxy Cauldron, didn't mean that she couldn't hear or see things that occurred within Sagittarius Alpha Star and Sagittarius Zero Star. It was technically partially her realm after all. Guardian Cosmos had been a very small fragment of Serenity that had protected the Cauldron and the Cosmos crystal. This form due to the lack of major power it had remained in the form of a fairy and was only several inches tall. It was also one of the many reasons why Serenity was capable of existing as a hologram for as long as she had. It took on Serenity's original appearance, but the form would not leave (c)
Tsukino Usagi: the depths of the Galaxy Cauldron. "By destroying the Sailor Graveyard…it will destroy any chance they had at rebirth. If you see an energy butterfly they would have moved onto oblivion. This is all the information I can provide…" Guardian Cosmos would then stop talking telepathically to Seiji, hoping that the form of Wiseman hadn't noticed. (e)
