Setsuna Meioh

Garnet coloured eyes studied the chaos in front of her carefully. She had no idea how she got here – the last thing she remembered was using her forbidden attack – but that didn't hinder her analysis of the situation.

The spells she cast clearly showed that the youma in front of her were of the possession type. Underneath those hideous shells were normal people and judging by the size they were mostly children.

She gripped her staff tighter, inwardly sickened by the carnage she was about to inflict, although none of it showed on her face. Individually the youma were no threat, but there were a lot of them and they would cause considerable damage to the civilian population if left unchecked.

Unfortunately she lacked her princesses healing abilities, which left only one option. It was a situation she had faced before, both during the Silver Millennium and in the time since, but it never got any easier. Yet more blood to stain her hands in the course of fulfilling her sworn duty.

She lifted her staff and spoke in a hoarse whisper, ignoring the tear that trickled down her cheek. "Dead Scream."


AN: Ouch. This came off a bit darker than I expected. Then again, given that at the time this is set Pluto, Neptune and Uranus were perfectly willing to kill Hotaru, a fellow Senshi, in order to stop the deathbusters I can easily see her being this ruthless, even if she ended up hating herself for it.
