I do not own Sailor Moon in any shape or form. I own only the OCs who appear in this work of fan fiction. R&R!
The Sleeping Sailor
Prelude
I am the last senshi left, apart from Pluto. While she stands guard over the Gates, I am the last in active duty. Though I long to join the others in the Galaxy Cauldern, I am content in that I have a purpose.
Pluto foresaw the fall of the Kingdom but made no moves to stop it, for she foresaw worse events if it was prevented. Instead, she summoned me away from my post under pretenses, and kept me from joining the fray on the Moon Kingdom's last day.
Am I angry with Pluto for this? Of course. But I also am not foolish enough to ignore that which I have been shown. I will serve my purpose until those who have gone before me awaken. Until that time, my name and existence shall be struck from the memory of mankind, nay, allkind. Only two shall remember me: Pluto, and myself.
To forget myself would be to forget my purpose, and that must never happen. My beloved city denisons do not wish this fate for me, but I know there is no other choice. They may call it folly if they will, or worse. I shall hear none of it once I enter the Sleep.
The Sleep. A method I thought would never be needed, and yet am glad my city created. It will keep me alive, binding me to this life indefinitely. I pray it to be a dreamless Sleep.
The evacutations start soon, and once they are complete, my sleep will begin.
Princess Serenity, I pledge to keep the Sacred Object safe until the proper time. I pledge this in life and in death, may I be forever bound to my city in spirit if I fail in life.
My fellow princesses...sleep well, and awaken soon.
I wait for you.
Queen Serenity is dead, and with her the Silver Millennium has ended. The princess and her court died in battle, as did the prince of Earth. The evil has been banished for a time, but it shall only stay bound for a few millennium at best.
Only one other remains, but were I to tell you her name, it would be forgotten. I knew this fate would be hers from the moment she awakened, though I held it back from her as long as I could. The people of her city curse me now. Let them curse.
They will forget soon enough. All that will be remembered of that great city are legends, and little more than that.
What is left of allkind will start again, on Earth. This had to happen, and I won't let myself forget that. Worse evil than the evil they've seen would have found our solar system, had the Silver Millennium remained. They will be grateful in time, that Beyrl and Metalia's Dark Kingdom are all they'll have to contend with, at first.
It won't be easy for them. But the challenges they'll face are necessary. When the time comes for The One Who Sleeps to awaken, Serenity will be prepared for what must happen.
If all goes to plan.
The One Who Sleeps..I know not if I will ever see her again myself, her future is too unclear for even me to read. Even so, I will watch from afar in case I am needed.
