Rating: PG-13 maybe going to R in later chapters
"Mother! Who did this to you!" A blonde haired girl asked a woman with short black hair. "Damn him….. DAMN THAT PRINCE OF PERSIA!" The girl looked confused and astounded at the same time, "Who?" The woman looked at her and she gasped for air, "The one the Dahaka and the Empress want dead. Could you help me darling Usagi?"
The blonde woman ran over to her mother and led her to a chair as she took a cloth damp with warm water and gently wiped away the crusted blood away from the wounds on her mother. A knock resounded at the door and a sand creature entered, "The Empress requests your presence in the Sacrificial Chamber, Shahdee. " Watching her mother get up and throw a dagger into the forehead of the messenger, making the messenger crumble into golden sand. Shahdee looked at the other sand creatures, "Any who enter like he did will DIE as he did! Am I clear!" Looking towards her daughter after the monsters fled and offering a soft smile, "Better go see what she wants…"
A few hours passed and she began to grow increasingly worried. Her mother never took this long meeting with the Empress before. Making her way towards the Sacrificial Chambers, Usagi scaled the two massive staircases and stared at her mother's gasping form, a pool of blood forming around her. "MOTHER!" Shahdee turned her head weakly to stare at her. "U…Usagi…"
Rushing over to her and dropping to her knees in the slick blood, she leaned over her mother. Shahdee let a small smile form on her face, careful that she didn't show any of her blood stained teeth. As the light from the oil lamps struck her daughters hair creating a halo of light around her. Feeling her time was running low she raised her hand and placed it on Usagi's cheek, "I have something to tell you… I am not your mother… I found you on the shore of the island…"
Placing her index finger to her mouth, Usagi's body trembled from holding in her sobs. "I don't care, you raised me… You are my mother, blood or not. You could have left me to die but you didn't."
Watching her eyes glass over as Shahdee looked at Usagi, "You are the daughter every mother wants… Beautiful, strong, kind… I know I never told you how much you meant to me… I could never grasp to find the words to tell you… I love you… You gave me a reason to… Smile…" She grasped Usagi's hand tightly, her eyes taking on a final proud shine as she looked at her, "Never give up, and find a way off of this island so you can be free… You make me so proud my daughter…"
At that, her mother's grip slackened and her eyes drifted shut. Usagi dropped her mother's hand in shock and placed her own blood covered hand over her mouth, her eyes wide. She began to hyperventilate trying to repress from sobbing, tears spilled from her eyes as she moved her hand and let out a mourn filled wail. "Why in the Seven Realms of Hell would a Prince do this to you?" She screamed into the air. Two red orbs appeared in the shadows appearing to stare at the girl over that was currently Shahdee's body. "Darling Usagi... I know it is hard and her spot will never be filled by another. But you will move on. Her memory will linger in your heart and mind."
Sniffling, Usagi looked at the two orbs and lowered her head in respect, "Empress… I apologize if I disturbed you…" A soft chuckle was heard in the shadows of the room, "Do not apologize dear girl… You are in grieving it is natural to grieve over the loss of a parent.."
Covering her mother's body with a long cloth after the Empress had spoken to her, she said a silent prayer, vowing to catch her mother's killer and to avenge her mother's death. The Empress looked at Usagi and she smiled sinisterly at the girl from the shadows. "I know where your mothers killer resides…. He is on this very island, he is loose and he is armed…. Usagi! Wait!"
Usagi turned around and she growled softly, "What? I am going after him and I am going to make sure that he feels the pain that he has put me through!" She then turned on her heel and she grabbed her mother's weapons and walked off through the torch filled hallways of the Fortress of Time. Her mind only grasping one thing. Revenge.
