Chibi-usa looked stricken. "Why?!"
The smug smile showed a faintly cruel edge that seemed to say 'check and mate' somewhere. "Ask your mother."
"STOP RIGHT THERE!"
Chibi-usa jumped at hearing something like her own voice.
The rest of the Senshi and Ranma stared. Ranma because everyone else was staring so he might as well.
The smug satisfaction began falling away from Sailor Pluto to leave a grimace of "why me?" on her face.
The second Chibi-usa was older, perhaps eleven or twelve, wearing a seifuku style schooldress that was apparently an actual schooldress and not a superhero costume. She even had the bookbag.
"W-w-who are you?" Chibi-usa asked as if she didn't like asking the question never mind hearing the answer.
"I'm Usagi Tsukino, daughter of Usagi Tsukino and Mamoru Chiba! I attend Graviton Junior High School and Auntie Ami told me there was something back here trying to erase the timestream! And here I come back and it's some pipsqueak version of ME!!!"
Chibi-usa flinched. Pluto flinched. Several of the Senshi looked confused.
"I've always heard that if time travel were real, then everything would either exist in a state of flux, or the sort of things that give math majors migraines were involved," said Ranma.
"I heard something like that too," mused Ami.
"Oh Chronos," said Pluto with a sick realization. "It's fracturing."
"FractURED," corrected a familiar voice. This Chibi-usa was perhaps fifteen, wore her hair long with a simple ribbon to keep it under control, and was wearing a gi. "Now what is this I hear about someone trying to kill Uncle Ranma before he gets together with Auntie mmmphhh?!"
Sailor Pluto looked wildly around as she covered the new arrival's mouth. "This can't be happening. It can't!"
"I think I understand," said Ranma. "Right now we're at a juncture period where major timeline divergences are possible. As soon as someone makes a decision, things will settle down. Right now because time travel is involved - all the various potential futures are trying to make sure that they aren't the ones snipped off."
"YEOWTCH!" said Pluto as someone bit her hand even through the glove. "HEY!"
"Needed ta breathe damnit," complained martial arts Usagi. "What's wrong with mentioning Auntie Makoto?"
"Eeek!" said several girls at the same time. Jupiter blushed and began to perspire heavily.
blink! "Whew! I found it. This must be the temporal disturbance," said a Dark Lady-lookalike except for the white pilot's uniform.
"Erk," said Sailor Pluto.
"Oh, this must be when Auntie Ami and Uncle Ranma met," began White Lady, looking remarkably amused by the reactions of the two.
"Huh?" said several girls and a guy.
"...No! I'm the real one," said Chibi-Usa.
"Oh!" "Wow!" "It's a convention!"
Seven little pink haired girls appeared with one little boy who looked like a chibi-Mamoru.
"HAH?!" Pluto and Moon asked at the same time.
"Uncle Ranma reconciled with his Mom, his mother talked to Mamoru about being a proper prince, I've got nine sisters as a result," said the little boy with the air of someone who was used to this reaction and not happy with the situation.
"Erk!" exclaimed Sailor Moon, looking as if she were going to faint or something.
