Alright this is the rewrite of A Champions Sacrifice. Again I don't own anything, sailor moon, and the legend of dragoon. There will be minor references to other games and anime. Again I don't own them either. Enjoy.
"Rosie," said a voice.
"Yes, Charle," responded Rose. Rose was beautiful. She had long jet black hair that reached to her waist line on her lower back. Her eyes were a deep blue, which held such longing and despair.
"I have a task for you. Only you can do it," said Charle.
"What's that?" asked Rose.
"I need you to kill the moon children," stated Charle.
"WHAT" screamed Rose. "I can't do that it's immoral."
"Rosie, please understand. You are the only one who can do this. The humans broke the crystal with soul of the virge embryo. It will now be born into a human. From there it will seek its body, which is on the moon. Any contact the moon child has with anyone will cause them to become slaves to them," said Charle.
"But still," said Rose.
"Rosie, please. If you don't then when the virge soul reunites with its body, it can be born. It will then purge the world. I know we, winglies abused it before. My brother took the sealed virge soul. And used it to gives power, and enslave every other species, but this is the age of the human. Not winglies. With the other dragoons gone the humans, have no way to defend them selves. You're the strongest fighter on the planet. Not to mention the techniques you know and the battle skills you have are unmatchable. You're the last dragoon, the dragoon of darkness. There is no one else better for this job," said Charle.
"How long is the cycle," said Rose.
"Once every 108 years. The 108 years signifies the fact that it was the last specie's to be created," said Charle.
"I see," said Rose.
"Will you do it?" asked Charle.
"You say I have a choice but I don't. I know that no one else can do it. And I would hate for what we fought so hard for to be wasted to be over in 108 years," said Rose.
"Thank you. Take this," said Charle as she handed Rose dark violet-blue choker. "This will stop time for you. For this day forth you will never look older then twenty two." Rose then put on the choker and began to leave. "Are you alright?"
"I have to be, I am after all the dragoon of darkness. At least I still have my dragon, Michael," said Rose before she left.
A few days later Rose arrived at a human town. It was midnights as Rose began to amlessely wander the streets, all the while looking at a stone hoping that it would get brighter. Sure enough as she headed began to head down the main street the stone was beginning to brighten. As she reached the end of the street, she can face to face with a small little house. Rose began to approach the house the stone, which was helping her find the moon child, began to get brighter. Rose then jumped up onto the roof. After which she slid down the chimney and gained access to the house.
Rose entered the house and walked around. After exploring down stairs and finding no trace of the new born infant, she headed up stairs. As she walked down the hallway she heard a soft whimper. Rose then entered the door on her right. In side the room was a basinet. Rose walked over to the basinet and peered down at the whimpering child. Rose took out the stone and raised it above the baby's head. The stone reacted with the child, as the Virages symbol appeared on the child's forehead.
"Sorry kiddo, but you and this whole town have to go," whispered Rose to the child. The child in response began to wail.
Suddenly foots steps could be heard, coming from the hallway. Rose quickly reacted and jumped up onto a rafter above. "Harry, are you alright?" asked the child's mother as she walked over to the basinet. The women picked the child and brought him over to the rocking chair. Rose then moved herself into a position that would allow for a quick kill once the mother put the baby back.
'Come on lady, I don't have all the time in the world for you to hurry up and put the kid back. Haha time, I guess I do have a lot of that now. Bah hurry up. It's already bad enough that I have to kill the entire town. I just want to get this over with. Oh about freaken time' thought Rose. The mother then laid the child back in the basinet. Rose then unsheathed her sword...
A sudden bolt and a load scream was heard through the castle corridors. 'Not that dream again. Why, why don't they stop? Every night, it's always about her. I don't even know who she was but, still' thought Serenity. Serenity reached over to her night stand and grabbed the glass of water.
"Serenity," called a voice from outside her door.
"Yeah I'm fine, Michiru," said Serenity.
"Are you sure?" said Michiru as she entered the Princess Serenity's room.
"No but what are you doing here? Your room is on the other side of the castle," said Serenity.
"I heard you scream," said Michiru.
"Really?" said Serenity as she raised a questionable eyebrow.
"Yeah, I mean who didn't hear you," teased Michiru.
"Oh great. I'll never hear the end of it from Rei tomorrow," groaned Serenity.
Michiru giggled before walking over and sitting beside Usagi on her bed. "So what's wrong?" asked Michiru.
"Nothing," lied Serenity.
"Your lying," said Michiru.
"How do you know?" asked Serenity as she tried to suppress a blush.
"I can always tell. I can read you like a book you know. So why don't you tell me what's bothering you," said Michiru.
"Lots of things bother me," said Serenity.
"Like?" questioned Michiru.
"Don't worry about it," said Serenity.
"Why must we do this every time? You always tell me everything anyway. I mean think about it I am the only one that knows that you don't love Endymion, and that you really want to learn how to fight," said Michiru.
"Because its fun" replied Serenity with smile.
"Oh you," said Michiru before she took Serenity's pillow and hit her with it. Serenity just laughed. "Are you going to tell me now?" asked Michiru.
"I guess," said Serenity as she then began to explain.
"Interesting, but for now lets worry about it later. Do you want me to spend the night here?" asked Michiru. Serenity nodded in agreement. "Alright," said Michiru as she climbed into Serenity's bed.
"Serenity, are you alright? I heard you scream" said a voice from without side the room.
"Oh crap, it's my mother" said Serenity.
"Dam," said Michiru forgetting her elegant manor for a moment. Michiru then rushed out of Usagi's bed and hid under it.
"Serenity," said Queen Serenity as she entered her daughter's room.
"Hey mother," said Serenity. 'I didn't think I screamed that loud' thought Serenity.
"Are you alright?" asked Queen Serenity as she moved to sit down on her daughter's bed.
"Yeah I'm fine. I just had a bad dream. Sorry if I woke you up" said Serenity.
"Well as long as you're alright," said Queen Serenity.
"I'm fine mother. I promise," said Serenity.
"Alright. Good night. Have a sweet dream," said Queen Serenity. Queen Serenity kissed her daughter's forehead before she left the room.
"Michiru, are you still her?" asked Serenity after she was sure her mom left.
"Yeah," said Michiru as she crawled out from under the bed. Michiru then crawled back into bed with Usagi.
Serenity moved over to allow more space for Michiru. Michiru then wrapped her arms around Serenity and moved her close. Serenity then let her head rest on Michiru's chest. "Michiru?" asked Serenity.
"Yes," questioned Michiru.
"If I were to say, I was in love with you, what would you say?" asked Serenity.
A beautiful smile graced Michiru's lips. "I would say that would be ok because I'm in love with you too."
"Really?" asked Serenity as she looked up at Michiru.
"Really," said Michiru as she looked down at Serenity. Michiru then leaned down and gave Serenity a soft but sweet kiss. Serenity was more then happy to comply. Once the kiss was broken the pair just stared at each other. "You need to get some sleep," said Michiru before she kissed her love once more.
"Ok" said Serenity after the kiss was over. Serenity then snuggled close to Michiru and was lulled to sleep by Michiru's soothing heart beat.
The next day Serenity had awoken to find Michiru gone. This of course was to be expected seeing that it would cause many problems should someone walk into their room and find them together. Serenity got up and got dressed. Shortly after her mother came in and lead her to the conference room. They sat at the head of the table and the days conferences with the other planets began. Serenity of course got board half way through the meetings and spent the rest of the time before lunch staring out the window and dreaming of her beloved Sailor Neptune.
Before Serenity realized it the morning meetings were already over. Serenity had gotten up to head down for lunch after the rest of the planets representatives left. "Serenity you need to pay attention to these meetings. This is what you need to know. You need this in order to become queen. If you don't pay attention then how are you ever going to become a ruler," scolded Queen Serenity.
"There is more to life then politics mother. Politics are not the only thing that a good ruler needs to know," said Serenity as she headed for the door.
"Not this again Serenity. How long will it take for you to understand that you are not meant for fighting. That is why you have the scouts, and Endymion," said Queen Serenity.
"That may be, but it is still important that I know how to fight in case of an attack and know one is around," protested Serenity.
"That's why we have the crystal," chided Queen Serenity.
"Yes, but if you take away the crystal then you have no power. Face it mother your weak with out the crystal. I on the other had wish to be stronger. I want to protect the people I care about," said Serenity.
"And the best way for you to do that is--" started Queen Serenity.
"What marry Endymion and become his trophy wife? Sorry no thank you," said Serenity.
"Yes. You have to fit this role that you are meant to play. No self respecting man wants women that can best him," stated Queen Serenity.
"And what about you? You were able to choose, why can't I?" asked Serenity.
"Serenity you were always a weak child. You need someone who can protect you and be with you always. I just want what's best for you. I know he is. He can take care of you. He is the last person in the kingdom. You scared off all of the others. Honestly you are the biggest disappointment in my entire life," said Queen Serenity.
Serenity just stared at her mother in shock. "I see. Fine then I'll just get out of your hair, besides how could you possibly know what's best for me? You don't even know me" said Serenity coldly before she left the room.
"Serenity," whispered Queen Serenity as she watched her daughter leave.
"Who does she think she is" said Serenity to know one in particular, as she walked down the hall. "If no one will teach me how to fight then I will learn my self. Wait that one won't work at least I could get in shape and then maybe Michiru will show me a few moves."
Serenity headed to her room to change close. Realizing that she didn't have much in work out attire she chose a dress that would allow her to move with out too many restrictions. After which she headed down to the scouts training room. Cracking the open the door, and peeking her head in to see if any of the scouts were in, Serenity, finally walked in after making the sure the coast was clear. Serenity was about to start working out when some of the scouts walked in. "Serenity what are you doing here?" asked Jupiter.
"Nothing I was looking for you guys," lied Serenity.
"You were here to train weren't you," accused Mars.
"What makes you think that," said Serenity.
"Because you are suppose to be with your mother," said Saturn.
"Serenity you know your not suppose to be training," said Jupiter.
"I wasn't training do you see me moving, or doing any form of exercise?" said Serenity.
"No but you were about to. Why else would you be here," stated Mars.
"You don't need to fight. You're our princess. It's our job to protect you and your job to rule," said Saturn.
"Whatever," muttered Serenity as she left the room.
"Is she going to be ok?" asked Saturn.
"I'm sure she will be fine," assured Jupiter.
"She knows better anyway," said Mars with a forced smile.
"Every time. I can't get a moments peace without someone breathing down my neck. Serenity you need to do that. Serenity your weak you can't possibly do that. Your not meant for fighting. All I want to do is fight. But know one will teach me how, no one will give me a chance. No one knows the real me," grumbled Serenity as she headed into the gardens.
"So why do you listen to them?" asked a voice.
"Who said that?" asked Serenity as she looked around but found no one.
"The names Charle Frama," said Charle as she descended from the sky.
"Charle Frama…wait I know you. You're the person from my dream," said Serenity.
"Dream? Oh right, I guess you would call them dreams. But yes I am," said Charle.
"What are you doing here? I don't understand how a dream is here?" said Serenity.
"Well its because I'm not a dream. Besides, winglies don't die of old age. I have been around for milenia," said Charle.
"Ok…but what are you doing here?" asked Serenity.
"I figured you could use a friend," said Charle.
"I have friends, thanks," said Serenity.
"That's why you have friends that don't know anything about you? " stated Charle with a chuckle.
Serenity just looked away. "What do you know about me?" questioned Serenity shortly.
"I know that your mother and friends don't listen to you let alone know you. You don't love your fiancé, you have a passion for fighting and your far stronger then anyone or you could possibly imagine," said Charle.
"How do you know all…of these?" asked Serenity.
"Because we have met before," teased Charle.
"But how?" asked Serenity.
"Those dreams you have," started Charle.
"Yeah," said Serenity as she urged Charle to go on.
"They aren't dreams they your memories" said Charle.
"What!?" questioned a confused Serenity.
"Your dreams are your memories of your previous life," said Charle.
"I don't understand. I can't be Rose. She is…she is…I don't know how to describe her," said Serenity.
"You don't? I guess I could see why you don't. Do you even know who you are or what you want?" asked Charle.
"I know who I am," stated Serenity.
"Oh really? Then who are you?" asked Charle.
"I am…Princess Serenity" said Serenity.
"And who is that? I am not talking about your title, I'm talking about you," said Charle.
"I don't know anymore. I though I did, but now and those dreams, I just don't know. Every time I do something its wrong, I just…" said Serenity.
"Serenity," called out a voice.
"Coming," said Serenity as she turned around.
"If you wish to know who you are, then meet me here at midnight," whispered Charle in Serenity's ear. "But for now you better go."
"Serenity," called out a servant.
"Coming," said Serenity as she headed back inside the castle.
"Dinner is almost ready," said the serevant.
"Alright. I will be right down. I just need to change," said Serenity.
Serenity then head back to her chambers. After changing into more formal attire and thinking about what to do, Serenity, headed to dinner. However along the way she passed the scout training facility. Decided to stop by and let her friends know that dinner was ready. She opened the door just a crack and saw that her friends were all their. "Serenity was in here early," said Mars as her girlfriend, Saturn wrapped an arm around her.
"What was she doing in here?" asked Mercury.
"She wasn't trying to train again was she?" asked Uranus.
"Yeah she was," said Saturn as Mars snuggled close to the dark haired worrier.
"She came up with this lame excuse as to why she was in here too," said Jupiter as she slinked an arm around Mercury.
"When will she learn, that protecting here is our job and duty," said Venus.
'How could they' thought Serenity.
"She isn't meant for fighting. She is meant to be at Endymion's sides as he and our selves protect her," said Pluto.
"It's our job to protect our weak princess," said Uranus.
'I am not weak' thought Serenity as she felt anger rise up within side her.
"Queen Serenity is having a lot of problems with her too. Apparently she isn't listing to anything that the Queen is saying," said Luna.
"What do you mean?" asked Mercury.
"During the meetings with your parents, Serenity just sits and stairs out the window. It's really starting to become a problem. She is so in active," said Artemis.
"Also Queen Serenity constantly tells her that it is her duty and honor to become queen. But nothing seems to motivate her. Queen Serenity said that her daughter even yelled at her today," said Luna.
"She should be paying attention during that time. Honestly she isn't much of a princess. She is a little off to be a Princess. A princess after all is supposed to have protectors, her prince charming and live happily ever after. There is no need for a princess to know how to fight," said Venus.
'How could they' thought Serenity as she felt more energy moving through her body. 'They…they don't know anything about me.'
"Zah, I wouldn't worry about it," said Uranus.
"Serenity is our hime, she knows what she has to do" said Mars as the rest of the scouts nodded in agreement.
"She is first and up most our princess. Our sole duty is to protect her," said Venus.
Serenity couldn't stand listing to her so called friend's bad mouth her any longer. 'If they really cared about me then they would help me, or at least understand. I know understands me except Michiru…but even still' thought Serenity as she headed to her room.
"Serenity," called out a voice.
"Michiru," said Serenity as she snapped out of her thoughts.
"Dinner is this way," said Michiru with a smile.
"I'm not very hungry. You go ahead," said Serenity.
"Is everything alright?" asked Michiru. Serenity shook her head as tears formed in her eyes. "Alright let's get you back to your room," said Michiru.
Michiru then lead Serenity to her room. "Please tell Queen Serenity and everyone else that Serenity isn't feeling well and that I am taking her to her room. I will be down in a few minutes" said Michiru as they passed a servant in the hall.
"Consider it done. I hope you feel better Princess," said the serevent. Serenity offered a weak smile in return.
A few minutes later the pair entered Serenity's room. Michiru lead Serenity to her bed and laid her princess down. "What's wrong love?" asked Michiru. Serenity offered a kiss to silence Michiru. Michiru took the kiss but then asked the question once again.
"Not fair, you can't take the kiss and expect an answer," said Serenity.
"I still want my answer," said Michiru before she kissed Serenity again. Serenity then proceeded to tell Michiru about her day. "So what are you going to do?" asked Michiru.
"I don't know. Honestly I want to go. I want so much to leave this place behind. It's not fair that the scouts can chose there spouse. They see me as a burden more then a friend. My mother only wants what's best for me, but how can she know what's best for me when she doesn't even know me," said Serenity.
"Don't go, please don't go. I don't want you too. I know things are tough, but I can't lose you. I love you Serenity. I would never see you as a burden. I know everything is complex right now but I just want you to know that I will always love you, regardless of who you are, or will become. As long you live I will always love you, If you left, I don't know what I would do without you" said Michiru.
"Michiru, I love you too," said Serenity as she leaned into Michiru. Soon their lips meet and they engaged in a soft yet passionate kiss. "You better go to dinner," said Serenity.
"Your right. I better go," said Michiru.
Michiru then left, leaving Serenity to dwell in her own thoughts once again. Soon however she fell asleep, and was resting peacefully. During this time Queen Serenity had checked on her daughter and found her sleeping. "It will be alright Serenity. I'm sorry I hurt you today. I love you," said Queen Serenity as she bent down and kissed her daughters forehead.
A few hours later, Michiru crept back into Serenity's room. She crawled into bed with her once again. Michiru then instinctively wrapped her arms around Serenity. Serenity of course snuggled close to Michiru. "I love you Serenity, don't ever leave me," whispered Michiru before she fell asleep.
A few minutes later and Serenity woke up once again. She then got out of bed and sat at her desk. She quickly wrote a letter and then walked back over to Michiru. After folding the letter into a small triangle, Serenity placed it in Michiru's hand. "Sorry Michiru, but I need to find out who I am. I have never felt whole, but now I have been given the chance to feel a void that has been with me all my life. I'm sorry. I love you" said Serenity. Serenity then leaned down and gave Michiru a kiss on the lips. Even though Michiru was fast a sleep she of course returned the kiss.
Serenity then left once the kiss was broken. She then headed to where she met Charle this afternoon. "You came," stated Charle as Serenity walked over to her.
"I did," said Serenity.
"Why did you come?" asked Charle.
"I want to be whole again," stated Serenity.
"Whole?" questioned Charle.
Serenity then just looked at Charle, and with a sad smile told Charle, "I want to know who I am. So please tell me who I am."
