Ok, this is a one shot story. Since I've never done something like this before, please be nice… :)

The wind was howling. A solitary figure with white-blond hair walked through the blackness of the woods she was in. With each step, under her bare feet, new life bloomed.
But the rest of the woods were burnt and dead. And she knew who was to blame.
Her dress that fell at her feet blew in the breeze as she walked to the figure, who was screaming in pain and fear.
"I didn't mean to do this! I… I didn't want to… sister, help me!"
"I know" the other girl said gently as she reached the smaller girl, who was curled in a ball, tugging at her raven black hair. The first girl leaned down sadly, putting a gentle hand on her shoulder.
"I don't want to do this… I don't want this power!"
"But it is your gift little sister. And we must all have balance" she sighed, even though she hated seeing her sister in so much pain. It was the truth. Hotaru was death and destruction, and she was the light and life.
Her sister had been cursed with the power, from the moment she was born. Sorcha, however, had been blessed. And it was this fact that hurt her more than the destruction she saw around her.
"Sister, if I could, I would switch our powers. But it is not, and I am sorry"
And then Sorcha stood up, and called on her power…

…Sorcha woke up in a cold sweat. She quickly tossed the blankets aside and got out of bed.
The memory of the dream followed her as she went to wash her face in the sink of her small bathroom. She knew what it was… and who she was… but the dream had only resurfaced recently. It meant something to her. What? She wasn't sure.
She splashed water on her face, and looked into the mirror. Aqua eyes stared back at her, and her white-blond hair fell around her shoulders, tangled. She ran a hand through it, sighing, then walked back into her small bedroom.
The seventeen-year old lived alone. Her parents abandoned her when she was younger, and now she had to do everything on her own. She had gotten the small room because of the kindness in an old ladies heart. Her rent was easy enough to pay, but…
But the rest was hell. And knowing there was evil out there that no-one would ever believe was the hardest thing to do.
She went to the window, sliding it open and allowing the cool breeze to lift her spirits a little. The tiny flower on the sill shone brightly in the moonlight. It teamed with life… and it was life she loved, no matter how much she wanted to be normal.
Still, she wished she could find the soul of her sister. Sorcha missed Hotaru dearly in this life. Her little sister was so precious to her… no matter who she was, or what she did…
And she still had to find the moon princess. It was her duty… and she couldn't back down from her duty.
She changed her clothes, grabbed her changing wand, and leaned on the windowsill to look outside. The roofs of the other houses were perfect for running across. She climbed out, dropping down on the roof just under her sill, and stayed there for a moment, listening to any sounds. Nothing. No-one had heard her…
Good, she thought. She was about to lift her wand in the air when she felt something.
It was something bad too.
She closed her eyes and let her senses take over, and they showed where the danger was like a beacon. And it wasn't far, either…
She ran, hoping she'd get there in time. She would have to become Sailor Saturn later…

Mkay! I hoped this was ok! And I hope you review…
Or… just give your honest opinion. Again, this is the first time I've written something like this… so I might be a little off…
Thankyou for reading anyway! Adios Amigos!
