Prologue
*AN and disclaimer at bottom*
It was the second era of peace, beginning with Crystal Tokyo. Usagi took her place as Neo-Queen Serenity, and with the help of her court, rebuilt their solar system. They restored each planet to its previous state in the Silver Millenium. Each senshi, no longer needed in battle, returned to rule their respective planets. The planets were repopulated and were quickly reaching their former grandeur. Chaos, the cause of all evil, had been successfully sealed within the Ginzuishou, and therefore, nothing stood in the way of their progress. The Moon palace had been restored and Neo-Queen Serenity, Mamoru and Chibi-usa all resided there. Earth was abandoned due to depleted resources, and left to repair itself.
The effect was felt in other solar systems, a chain reaction of peace. True peace. All was content. Every p.year a great feast is held, celebrating /their/ success. Honoring, congratulating, worshiping the Queen who brought them victory.
'Fools.'
The Ginzuishou sits, vibrating ever so slightly from the stress of the evil it had sealed. It was truly the most powerful being on the earth. The queen was the real tool. In her innocence, she could never have grasped the reality of the Ginzuishou. It was real. More real than anything in this mortal world, for it was hardly tangible in this plane. It was intangible, even to the Queen herself. It was only in crystal form to exist in this universe. In actuality, it was almost a whole other plane in itself.
It sat in its secure room on its tiny stand, occasionally shifting shapes to amuse itself, as it did when touched by Fiori on the racing asteroid. Though, every p.year, Queen Mercury entered to visit the lonely being. Only she understood its significance. She gave her thanks with company and genuine gratitude. She respected it. She gave it a reason to continue protecting humanity, when in all honesty it should have abandoned them, as they had abandoned the Ginzuishou after all it had done, and continues to do, for them. /They/ took credit for its work. Soon after she leaves, emotions begin filling the Ginzuishou.
Anger.
Resentment.
Jealousy.
'What had they done? Nothing. What could they do? Those weak beings that continually take credit for my work, my suffering...NO! I won't take it any more!' Memories of the past raced through the Ginzuishou's mind, but its thoughts landed on one female: Queen Mercury.
'The one who understands. The one....but....I'm sorry, m'lady....'
With a wave of energy, the crystal cracked. The Ginzuishou, the source of the new Crystal Millenium, had commited suicide.
*On Venus*
It was almost midnight in the beautiful Venusian capitol. In the queen's chambers of the palace, a golden-haired beauty lay unconscious. Aino Minako slept peacefully in her overly fluffy bed. The Wave reached her, and she was Sailor Venus. She jumped out of bed, collecting her thoughts.
'No, it couldn't be...' And with that, she teleported to the moon.
*On Mars*
The former warrior of Mars now sat in her throne, merely pondering life. Her throne is now her favorite 'thinking chair' now that she is queen. She sat, her legs crossed, chin propped up on her left hand, with her elbows on the armrests. Her deep maroon eyes lost in thought, as she recalled memories, occasionally giggling at a few. The Queen's hair had stayed the same beautiful reddish color and was now floor-length.
Her mind was turned abruptly to her most recent death, when Usagi begged her to stay. A tear rolled down her cheek, but she quickly wiped it from her face. 'If only they could see me now, how they'd laugh...' Suddenly, a huge wave of energies jolted her body and triggered her transformation. She knew what happened, though she wouldn't accept it. Without further contemplation, Sailor Mars teleported to the moon.
*On Jupiter*
Makoto sat in her riding clothes tying the laces to one of her riding boots. The brunette had grown out of the beaded ponytails and now prefers a single or double french braid most of the time. Her emerald eyes were as vivid as ever. Since Jupiter was restored, she found her release through her daily horseback rides. When she finished lacing her boot, she stood up and prepared to take Motoki, her favorite horse, out for a ride.
The second her fingers touched the reins, she was hit by the Wave. The same energy that triggered her transformation, ran through the reins to Motoki, whose animal body couldn't handle the super human energy. Sailor Jupiter teleported to the moon, as Motoki's lifeless body slumped to the floor.
*On Mercury*
The queen of Mercury strolled along in her private gardens, novel in hand, searching for a place to sit and read. Her shoulder length indigo hair contrasted greatly with her pale skin and light blue sun dress. Since the Chaotic Era, her life became more devoted to studying and ruling her planet than anything else. She found her favorite bench by the Mercurian rose bushes and settled in with her new book.
She was already on the twelfth chapter when a great surge ran through her body. It was a mixture of three surges to be more accurate, but they all held the taint of death. The first was full of emotion, familiar ones she recognized and had been close to. The second was an innocent, happy white-gold feeling, which she easily recognized as Usagi-chan and Mamoru-san's aura, almost fully combined. The third was a light pink, Chibi-usa.
She shot up from her bench. The surges in her body immediately triggered her transformation, and she teleported to the moon immediately. Sailor Mercury's novel fell to the ground, forgotten by all.
A/N: Okies, I have hit a very hard writers block on my last fic, 'A new Life,' so that is on hold. Then while I was drawing, I got the inspiration for this fic, so see how this turns out. I am still working on a title. I am open to anything you have to say, especially plot and title suggestions.
^__^ Enjoy!
