The Only One

By Scarlet Starlet of the Wind

"Cassaya. Are things going to plan, my dear?" A formless, shapeless being boomed, his voice echoing in his sanctuary.

"Oh, yes, Sytar-sama, everything. I've gotten this." She pulled out the Imperial Crystal. She was skinny, beautiful but with the darkest of hearts.

"What does a simple jewel do to increase my power?" Sytar-sama yelled.

"Oh, this is not just a simple jewel. This is the most powerful starseed on the face of the earth. This is the starseed of Sailor Moon. She is gone, the team has scattered, and now we rule."

"Hmm. Are you sure of this, Cassaya? Because if you're wrong, there are very serious consequences."

"I'm positive, Sytar-sama. And not only will you have that, you'll have much more. That is, if I can get rid of that Sun girl."

"What does she have to do with this? I thought this was the ultimate power!"

"Oh, yes, but with the other crystal - The Solar Crystal - then you will have the ultimate power, times two!"

"Times two?" Sytar said, trying to hide his happiness. "Get me this Sun Crystal."

"Very well, Sytar-sama." With that, Cassaya disappeared from the room in flashes of black and red.

Back in Juuban:

Great mourning went on everyday since the death of Sailor Moon. Especially between the senshi.

"You know," Hotaru said, sadly, "Tomorrow is her funeral."

"I can't bring myself to go." Rei grieved.

"We still have to fight and hold up the senshi name." Makoto said, "She wouldn't want us moping around like this."

"I can't help it though," A tear went down the face of Ami. "I miss her so badly."

"I'm just glad Mamoru and Chibiusa are with her." Setsuna said, sadly.

"That girl that took my Queen's life...I swear, I'm going to kill her if I die trying!" Haruka

"It would be pointless to kill Cassaya instead of the force that's behind her." Minako replied.

"We've gotta stay strong, girls. No matter what, we are Sailor Senshi. We have to protect against those forces that took her away." Makoto said, trying to smile.

"We have to." Setsuna said, symphathizing with Makoto.

"Even though it's hard." Hotaru said. "We can make it."

"And even avenge the life of the ones who took our dearest away." Haruka said, darkly.

"Stop thinking about killing her! Do you think killing her would bring Usagi, Mamoru or Chibi-Usa back?" Michiru snapped, bursting into tears.

"It's ok, Michiru," Haruka soothed her lover.

"It's just," Michiru said through sobs, "Whenever you say that, I think of Usagi and how I could have saved her!!"

The rest of the senshi's faces immediately downcast.

"I wish it happened that way, Michiru-san. I really do..."

In Osaka, Japan 2:00 AM

"Utsukushii Hikari..." A sweet voice called Hikari's name.

"W-who are you?" A girl asked, about the age of thirteen, with long brown hair and bright green eyes. "Why are you calling me?"

"Hikari, I have a task for you."

"What is your task...er..."

"Serenity."

"What is your task, Serenity-sama?"

"I want you to get to Juuban and fight the evils of Sytar."

"Who is Sytar?"

"A new evil. The ones who are trying to are grieving over me. Tell them I'm okay. Tell them who I am, Hikari."

"Yes, Serenity-sama."

"But I will tell you one thing. To arrive in Juuban, you must tell your secrets."

"My secrets, Serenity-sama?" Hikari asked puzzledly.

"You know what I mean."

Utsukushii Hikari abruptly awoke again in her own room. "W-w-what was that?"

(Ya likes? R & R people. That's the only way to get more lol)
