'So sorry there,' Shou said he then looked up at me his breathing changed 'Hello Elena Elric.' 'I should've known you would be here,' I said 'But your Alchemy no longer works doesn't it.' 'This side of the gate is better for technological advances experimenting on people,' Tucker said with stars in his eye 'Vessels for our Master.' he spoke to much.

I suddenly heard someone playing the violin.

It reminded me of an old friend during silver Millennium, I caught up with Usagi, there stood the green haired girl from earlier today, Michiru. 'Coming to a place like this all alone that's a very bold thing to do,' Michiru said 'Bold yet dangerous, be careful it could cost you your life.' Usagi from the discipline person, I was alright. 'So your still here,' Michiru said.

'We're investigating the same thing,' I said 'The evil that lurks here, a man by the name of Shou Tucker, you should keep your eye on.' 'Why are you telling me this for all you know we could be enemies.' Michiru commented. 'I highly doubt that Sailor Neptune.' I said as I walked away.

I saw Usagi and Chibi-Usa hit the ground as the tried to out Atavism I pulled off my jacket as it landed in the the nearby bushes kicking the monster out of their way, the girls transformed fighting the monster but still each of the girls power moves didn't affect it. Time to go old school, I clapped my hand together felling the electric blue energy building up slamming my hands on the stone as columns rose up heading the monster at each turn. My starlight crystal glowed sending white hot light its way destroying the monster in its place at cat sat.

'A cat that horrible monster was a possessed cat?' Moon questioned. 'Shit,' I muttered as I put the ground back to normal the bracelet had broke showing off my automail I grabbed my jacket quickly and placed my gloves on before the girls could see. 'Hey are you guys alright, where Chibi-Moon?' Mamo asked. 'Over here Mamo,' she waved at him as she stood by a Mugen Academy student I was shocked at her appearance, violet eyes and black hair.

Just like Izumi and Sig Curtis, I think I may have found their child alive. First Alexander, Tucker, now this, 'Do you think you could tell me your name?' Chibi-Moon asked 'It's Hotaru Tomoe,' Hotaru smiled as she walked away Mamo pulled out another bracelet I put it on.

We were in the command centre, 'The question is are they Sailor Guardians?' Minako questioned. 'We only saw them from a distance,' Ami said 'We can't jump to conclusions.' If they are Guardians,' Usagi said 'Why would they disappear, why wouldn't they come join our team.' 'Good Point,' Mako admitted. 'Which means they are more likely our enemies,' Mamo said.

I sat on the couch as I had strained my automail a bit too much, 'I don't think they are,' I said. 'Come on El, they must be.' Rei said. 'Do any of you remember during Silver Millennium when my father left because of an important job all kings did for the Star Kingdom,' I said. 'Yes but what's that got to do with this.' Usagi pouted.

'When he left I never saw him again,' I said 'That's when I met Sailor Pluto at the time I was becoming Sailor Cosmos a new Sailor Guardian. She trained me beyond the Time and space gate, soon enough I met the other Sailor guardians.' 'What?' they all shouted. 'Sailors Neptune and Uranus,' I said 'Solitary Sailor Guardians that were not allowed to leave their posts for anything to stand on their guardian planets alone and watch. Watch as we had a place to call home, they were my family outside of Silver Millennium. Neptune and Uranus were like my second parents after my mother was busy.'

'So what your saying is that these two could be?' Ami questioned. 'I said that I think they are doesn't mean that they are,' I said. 'But when you say stuff like this El you've always been right,' Mako said. 'But you guys have to be careful,' Artemis said. 'These guys are suspicious too,' Luna said. Showing us two pictures Haruka and Michiru, my phone rang breaking through the silence.

'Hello,' I answered 'Am I speaking to a Ms. Elena Elric,' the man's voice said on the phone 'Yes who are you nobody knows my last name?' I asked 'You wouldn't believe me if I told you who I was,' he said. 'Tell me something that only I would know then,' I said. 'The Ishvalan war,' he said 'You protected me losing your left arm and right leg in the process, you passed through the gate of truth and that's why you can do Alchemy without a Transmutation circle.'

'Mae Hughes,' I whispered 'Is that really you?' 'Gracia and Elicia,' he said 'Are the two joys I had I went crazy when I met your brothers thinking Al was Ed.' 'You have no idea how happy I am to hear your voice,' I said. 'Oh don't be going soft on me El,' Hughes said 'I'm the only one that can do that, I found some people for our side of the gate that died but they are here on this side.' 'I'll meet you tomorrow Mae in the park its a long night,' I said.

When I finished the girls had gone it was just Mamo and I, 'Who was that?' Mamo asked. 'That my dear jealous boy friends was an old friend from the other side of the gate called Mae Hughes he is married,' I said. 'Looks like our family is coming together,' Mamo said 'I can't wait for when we have a family of our own.' 'We will one day,' I said 'If you met Nina you would love her.'

The next day I sat in the park by myself as the girls had taken off to the mountains to celebrate Rei's birthday I told them I wasn't feeling too good. 'Looks like a nice sunny day today doesn't it, El?' Hughes asked. 'Really we haven't seen each other in ages and you talk about the weather,' I laughed.

We stood up and hugged each other, 'Still have your automail?' He asked. 'There isn't anything I can do to get them back,' I said I showed him the bracelet I created 'It creates a synthetic skin over the automail giving the illusion of skin comes in handy. How exactly are you alive?'

'The gate of truth,' Hughes sighed 'After Envy disguised as Ross shot me, I was still alive when they buried me. Bradley didn't want anyone knowing what he was and I was pulled through to the gate of truth to this side got myself a job got documents to say who I was . I then did my research and found why the world got pulled apart and then I saw you El a few weeks ago that's when I found other that had died but appeared here.'

'Who did you find Mae please tell me?' I asked. 'I found Nina and Alexander, Alexander ran off some guy had him as a service dog and the last one is someone who I think you should meet in person.' Hughes said. My eyes widened at Nina, 'Is she alright, I have Alexander he's fine.' I said. 'Nina has missed you so much,' Hughes said 'You'd love the last person.'

Hughes was dropping little hint as to who it could be and I still had no clue as to who it could be, 'So where are we going now?' I asked. 'The apartment I share,' Hughes said taking me by the hand to his apartment building, but we were stopped by Mamo. 'El who are you with?' Mamo asked frowning as he did. 'Mamo this is Mae Hughes,' I said letting go of Hughes' hand and held Mamo's 'Nina is alive on this side of the gate, you know I would never be unfaithful to you. We've been through too much together for this to get in our way.'

So the two of us followed Hughes to his apartment building which was in the Mugenzu area, turns out he had been investigating it as well. Taking the lift up to to the 26th floor it was only Hughes' and another girls apartment on this floor, he unlocked the door as soon as it opened a little girl with brown hair and dark blue eye launched herself at me.

Tear flew out of my eyes and so did Nina, 'Mommy, please don't leave me again.' she cried. 'I'll never leave you again baby girl,' I whispered in her ear picking her up she snuggled into me, 'Nina sweetie this is Mamoru Chiba, he's my boyfriend.' Nina reached out for him, Mamo gladly took her 'Can you be my Daddy?' Nina asked. 'Of course Nina,' Mamo smiled 'I'd love to be your Daddy.'

'Mae, whose at the door?' a familiar voice asked. But it couldn't be, I walked into the living room to find my Mom Trisha Elric standing there. 'Mom?' I questioned tears already running down my face, 'Oh my sweet baby girl,' Mom said wiping away the tear 'Don't cry all that matters is that I'm here.'

For the rest of the day we just caught up, 'Your left arm feels heavier than your right arm, El.' Mom said. I sighed taking of my right boot and sock rolling up my trouser leg and then taking off the bracelet showing my automail. Showing all the scar I had gained fro the war as well and the scars gained from the automail surgery. 'Automail? But how?'

I explained to Mom what had happened, '...there's no way to get them back if it had been through human transmutation then I would've been able to get them back.' Mamo and I went back home Nina stayed with Hughes, so that one day soon I could tell the others of my past. A day later the girls had returned home telling us about the confrontation with the new enemy Death Busters and Usagi's interaction with another Sailor Guardian.
