She was also the Gatekeeper Trainee who had the Gate Of Fire. Upon seeing a teleportation gate beginning to open, she responded in a manner that indicated she might have read the newspaper editorials about maniacal Senshi.
"Noooooooo!" FWOOOOOOOOMMM!
The opening in midair closed immediately, cutting off a trail of smoke from the other side.
"Oh, that was scary," said Hikaru to the still sleeping Setsuna.
Coughing up little clouds of smoke, Sailor Pluto made a mental note that other people might have been caught up in the restructured timeline and have Gate abilities or odd talents.
OK, she'd have to do something a bit more off her usual path.

Hikaru looked down, wondering where a beer can had come from.
Two hands appeared from behind Hikaru and yanked her briefly through space and time.
When the world steadied, Hikaru realized she was completely outside the building. Training took over and she stabbed a button on the device at her belt. "Umi! Fuu! One of the Senshi is going after Setsuna Meiou!"
Sailor Pluto threw a crystal into the room and closed the gate. Now she'd get a chance to talk with her other self in this timeline. She made the connection and noticed a frightened Setsuna looking back.
"Hello Setsuna Meiou. I am Sailor Pluto. So are you. Due to a... mishap in time, you don't remember being Sailor Pluto but you are and you will awaken soon. It is imperative that when you do, you get in touch with the Inner Senshi. That is to say Sailor Moon's group. She is the princess who will bring a new utopia to Earth. Your expertise and power are needed. Don't trust the Gatekeepers they are..." Sailor Pluto's voice trailed off as she noticed the connection had been cut. Now what?
Umi's first waterbolt had sent the floating crystal into the wall, Fuu's "Air Hammer" attack then began smashing into it.
"Are you alright, miss?" asked Umi as they finished smashing the crystal messenger.
"No, I mean yes," the frightened young fashion designer looked over the two fourteen year olds, "what did you do?"
"I'm Umi," said Umi proudly. "I'm an AEGIS Gatekeeper trainee! I have the Ocean Gate and that was my new 'Watergun' attack! I used to be stuck using 'Waterspout' but I've got much better control now."
"I'm Fuu, my gate is the Gust Gate. Are you sure you're okay?"
"I'm just an Okinawan studying here when a copy of me tells me I'm going to be a Senshi?!" Setsuna wasn't sure that 'okay' was really applicable.
"Don't worry, ma'am. Hotaru is a Senshi but she defected to come work on the side of the goodguys," Umi stated matter-of-factly. "Even if that wasn't some psych thing to get you to lower your guard so that one of those Senshi can ravish you and turn you to the side of evil - we'll be ready for her now."
Setsuna had started to relax up until the last, now she was pulling the bedsheet up as if that would protect her. She'd heard the stories. Especially after the attack on those poor actors.
After a few minutes, she came to a decision.
