I don't own Shoujo Kakumei Utena.. Don't sue me!!!

Kakumei

Utena barely registered Akio-san's voice yelling at her. All she could think about was rescuing Anthy. If it took all her strength, she would open the coffin. If she had to revolutionize the world to find her prince, she would. The promise to be with Anthy for years ran through her head, along with Dios' voice, telling her to never lose her nobility. "I'm sorry, my prince... It seems I've already lost it. I've failed. I'll never bring the world revolution." A tear fell from her eye. She clenched her fist and punched the coffin door. "Damnit! I WON'T GIVE UP!!!" As she finished yelling, the Sword of Dios reappeared, intact and shining like when Utena first saw Saionji use it, when she first held it in her hands. It floated peacefully in midair, sining a soft song that gave her courage during her duels. She grabbed it and shoved it into the small opening she had created. As she pushed on it, rose petals came rushing out of the coffin. The lid clattered to the ground and Utena fell back, shocked at the sight. In the coffin lay herself as a child. She looked down and saw herself in the prince's clothing. "What the?"
A familiar voice answered. "You are your own prince. The power to revolutionize the world has been inside yourself the whole time." Mikage stepped out of the shadows. "You didn't need the Rose Bride."
"Nor the sword of Dios, for that matter." Touga and the other Duelists were now standing beside Miakge.
Dios, Anthy, and Akio all surrounded Utena as Anthy said, "The world has been and always will be yours to change as you see fit, Utena-sama."
Utena kissed her younger self's tears away and gave her the ring on her finger. "Never lose your nobility, even when you grow up. Pray, we meet again. This ring shall lead you here." She fell to her knees as the coffin, with the young Utena faded away. Tears formed in a puddle in front of her as everyone walked away. "The power... mine... all along? I... it's not possible, is it?"
Dios took her in his arms. "It is possible. Make your life a revolution. Shake the world, my beautiful princess."
She turned around and cried into his chest. "I will... I already have..."
