Warning: Alternate Universe and Character Death.
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon or any of its characters. I do not own Fred, Susan, Michael or any Ten'ou that appears as they are based off real people, hence they own themselves. I probably own the investigators who are to be mentioned, but I will point out if I don't.
AN. This is a spin off from my story "Coward's Way Out". Please be warned that this will make no sense if you haven't read that but that in all likelihood this story will be lighter hearted (I hope). This does still deal with death, suicide and its aftermath but is written with a far lighter and less realistic view. Read at your own risk, oh and reviews are treasured.
Preface:
There are many unknowns about death and what comes after this existence ends. Many beliefs, legends, myths and stories try to explain this to those who live. One such explanation is ghosts.
Ghosts are usually thought of as spirits like gasper or as poltergeists that we see in horror films. However some of these fabled ghosts are just imprints on time, an event so filled with emotion that it seems to mark the very place it happened.
However this story does not deal with an event, which repeats again and again until time itself ends. Nor is this a haunting campfire tale of a murder victim come back for their revenge. This is not Casper, a little boy who just died before his time. This isn't even the tale of the ghost, so much as of the one who felt the need to find answers where others had brushed off the tale.
When someone you love dies, the pain is comparable to nothing else. It cannot be measured because of its uniqueness. When they are taken before their time most are always left asking "Why did this happen?" but when that person takes their own life.. Every question becomes so much more important, ever otherwise unimportant argument replays. Questions seem to come at the speed of light. The worst part of this is that, unlike murder, heart attack, disease or other causes, the reason for suicide goes with you to the grave. Those left behind can piece together clues, guess all they want, but the only one who knows the truth no longer exists in the world of the living.
This is the tale of Michiru Kaioh and Haruka Ten'ou.
