***********************************
Black Lady.
That was her name now. Not "Small Lady" the weakling. Not "Chibi Usa" the rabbit of the moon. It was Black Lady.
Black Lady. The name was threatening. It held power.
Small Lady didn't.
Small Lady was her mother's daughter, Black Lady her nemesis.
That's the way she liked it.
Her Mother, Father, and the Senshi had been her only friends-no, they were never her friends! They never cared.
They didn't love her.
No one did.
Love was an illusion.
The darkness was true to itself.
No sense crying over it. She didn't care.
Did she?
NO! Luna P was her only friend.
Luna P the toy? No...
It was the person inside of Luna P, the only one she could talk to.
They only one that had told her she would grow up the be a beautiful Lady like her mother.
Mother.
Black Lady let out a bittersweet laugh. Her mother hated her. No one believed that she was even the "Goddess'" daughter.
But did she care?
No.
Did she use to?
Yes.
Black Lady picked up the toy, and threw it across the dark room.
Stupid toy. It was bringing about all the painful memories.
Luna P slowly rose from the floor, slowly materializing into a familiar figure.
Pluto.
"Small Lady? Small Lady where are you? We're very worried about you!" Pluto's holograph called through the darkness of the room. It was the only light source.
Like a glimmer of hope in a sea of darkness.
Like her heart.
"Small Lady no longer exists." Black Lady informed Pluto.
"Small Lady is that you?" Pluto called.
"It's Black Lady, Sailor Pluto. Small Lady no longer exists." she repeated growing rather annoyed.
Was that remorse and grief she saw in Pluto's eyes?
Love?
She had never truely experienced love before.
"Small Lady... please Small Lady! Wake up!" Pluto cried.
"I have no need. Small Lady was a weakling. An unloved child with no friends." Black Lady spat.
"No! That's not true! We all love you Small Lady! Sailor Moon, the Senshi, Tuxedo Kamen... your mother and father too!" Pluto said with begging eyes.
Begging for her to believe Pluto?
"The Queen and King never cared for their daughter, she was a thorn in their shoe since the day she was born! They didn't even come home for my Birthday! What kind of parents do that? I'm all alone,
Wiseman is my only friend!" cried Black Lady.
"That's not true Small Lady, I'm your friend." Pluto reasoned.
I'm your friend... how sweet those words sounded...
"It's a lie! All a lie!" Black Lady screamed covered her ears with her hands.
Big hands.
Not Small Lady's small one's.
Not the weak ones, the useless ones. T
he hands of a power adult.
The hands of Black Lady. The Queen of Darkness. In whom the seeds of evil and death were planted.
"Small Lady... Small Lady... follow you heart..." Pluto's figure began to dissapear and fade back into Luna P.
Her only friend.
Gone. She was alone now.
"No Puu! Come back!" Black Lady cried as she picked up Luna P.
With one heave, Luna P flew across the room into the darkness.
Stupid Toy.
THE END
