Chapter Ten

"Trunks, listen to me. We have to bury Minako," said Bulma.

"She's not dead," Trunks yelled from his room.

"Trunks dear, she is. But she will remain forever in our hearts," Bulma explained.

"No, Bulma! Trunks is right! There is always a way to get someone back from the dead! Please Bulma, just let us try," Usagi pleaded.

"There is a way?" Trunks asked with hope.

"Yes, we could give some of our energy to her! All the scouts and I!"

The other scouts nodded.

"I'll go get her." Trunks ran back to his room. He came back carrying Minako.

"Put her on the floor," Makoto said. The scouts [plus Rini] formed a circle around Minako. And they each chanted:

"Jupiter Oak Thunder"

"Mars Soul Fire"

"Mercury Wise Water"

"Moon Heart Princess"

"Chibi Pink Sugar"

Energy from each of them shot out and hit Minako. Minako didn't move. She was still dead. Usagi fell to the floor and sobbed.

"At least you girls tried," ChiChi said softly.

"Minako..." Trunks lifted her head slowly and kissed her forehead.

Then a blast of light burst out from the kitchen. A beautiful woman figure slowly formed. There stood Sailor Pluto.

"Luna-P!!!" Rini cried and jumped on her.

"Hello Small Lady," Pluto smiled. "I can feel the sadness and smell death in the air. What's going on?" Pluto asked.

"Oh Luna-P!" Rini sobbed "Minako is dead!"

Pluto didn't say anything at first. She thought for a minute. "I know a way to get her back and you guys home," she said.

"Really? What? What? What?" Usagi asked excitedly.

"I can backward time. Go back to the unfinished battle, before you guys came to this world."

The scouts were silent.

'That means I'll never meet Goku and Gohan,' Usagi thought silently.

'That means I'll never meet Bulma,' thought Ami.

'Damn, there are so many new cute guys here I have never met before. After all, I dated everyone in crystal Tokyo,' thought Makoto.

'Vegita...' Rei thought unhappily.

"If you take them back in time, does that mean we'll never meet again?" Goku asked.

"Not only that, you'll have no memories of each other," Pluto explained.

"Oh Goten!" Rini hugged Goten tightly.

"So senshi, what is your desiccation?" Pluto asked them.

"If we go back in time, Minako would still be alive. But if we do, than we'd never meet the Z hunks," Usagi was stuck. She looked at the others for an answer.

They all looked back at her blankly.

"Serenity, I need your answer please," Pluto said. Usagi bit her lip.
