Chapter One: Watching from the Shadows

She had seen them all get defeated. Enemy after enemy, from those Youma to the Droids, to their leaders. Sailor Moon and the sailor scouts, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Venus had defeated the Dark Kingdom, Sailors Chibi-Usa and Pluto helped them to defeat the Black Moon clan, and then they, along with sailors Neptune, Uranus, and Saturn helped to defeat the Death Busters. 

And yet, they were always the ones in the limelight. All she could do was give a small laugh at herself and remind herself that she had helped them, somehow. It was just that no one had noticed. Why? Why did I have to be here and not on Earth, with them, she thought. Instead, there she was, indirectly protecting them somehow. 

At random times she would get a glimpse of some sort of scene. A scene with her in that strange costume she had seen in the holograph when she realized where she was.

She had been watching over the sailors from such a distance. At least she could do that when she was bored. Watch them in their perfect, unbroken peace.

When will I be free, thought Elisa. She somehow didn't need things like food and water for survival. But I would give that ability up any day to leave, she thought. Watching the door, she yearned, yearned badly to open it. to someday open it and see what awaited, but it wasn't that simple. If only it were. She continued to watch the sailors in such a perfect peace.

In the group, there was Luna and Artemis, great advisors for being simply cats, the childish Usagi Tsukino, Sailor Moon's human identity, and the smart Ami Mizuno, secretly Sailor Mercury. She fought with water. There was also Rei Hino, a spiritual shrine maiden and also Sailor Mars. She uses fire for fighting. Makoto Kino liked plants, and she has thunder and plant powers for fighting as Sailor Jupiter. Minako Aino controlled light for her powers when she transforms into Sailor Venus. Mamoru Chiba becomes Tuxedo Mask, and he and Usagi met their future daughter, Chibi-Usa. There were other sailors, of course. Michiru Kaiou is Sailor Neptune, who had deep sea powers, Haruka Tenou was Sailor Uranus and had wind powers, and Setsuna Meiou is Sailor Pluto with powers of time. Together, although apart from the other sailors, they raise Sailor Saturn, Hotaru Tomoe. She was as old as all of them, and then she was reborn.

They all lived such interesting lives. All Elisa had was the ability to watch anyone she chose, in one room, never to leave. At night, she would always see a moonbow, so beautiful and bright. One last ray of hope, she always thought when she saw it. I can and I will get out someday. But when would it come? When would she be free? She wanted to experience all the things she had seen from such a distance or so long! She wanted to see everything, feel everything, and be included in everything! She wanted to be like them! "Augh!" Yelled Elisa aloud, and when she realized she had yelled, she covered her mouth in surprise. She didn't expect that to come out of her mouth, and sighed. Maybe someday...

"Lutetia!" Yelled someone, calling from a distance. Lutetia was somehow...falling...? But how? She was in that chamber, right? How was she falling? Why were these strangers calling after her? For some strange reason, she felt she had known them somehow, from somewhere. As if by deja vu,  or perhaps it was something more. There were a few other girls that seemed the same age as her, but they were weeping and one looked shocked. What had happened to them to put them in such a state? A flash of light came, but then darkness enveloped her vision, all around herself.

In the blink of an eye, Elisa woke with a start. Beads of sweat dripped down her forehead as she tried to recount what she had seen. Was that another dream? What did they mean, and when she got dreams like those, why were they always the same one? Of people yelling for her, shocked and crying. Who were those people? What did this all mean?
