Chapter Three
She was running through the streets trying to get there in time. She didn't know where she was going, her legs had their own mind as they dragged her in the seemingly right direction, and all she knew was that she had to get there before it was too late. She could hear the bloodcurdling screams as she saw the city crumble to its knees in death. She ran faster, trying to make it in time, passing bodies lying on the ground dead in the aftermath of the battle. She finally made it to her destination. When her legs stopped carrying her she was standing in front of Osaka Castle. She looked around and she saw all the Senshi laying dead on the ground, this time even Saturn wasn't alive to stop what would happen. From a distance she heard Beryl yell at her, "Moon Princess! You're here, so now I can kill you and the hope the world has along with you. The Shitennou stood next to her. They're faces had a hate so intense on them she shivered. Beryl looked at them and said, "End it."
Usagi started to scream, but suddenly Beryl and her Shitennou disappeared and she was standing on a stair case. Below her she could see a party. The room was crowded with people she had never seen before. They all looked so beautiful; the women wore long flowing dresses of every color and the men were dressed to the nines in their tuxes. She looked around the room, but paused when her eyes caught a glimpse of him. It was Tuxedo Kamen. He was walking towards her from across the room, capturing her eyes along the way. He got to her and took her hand and kissed it and asked, "Princess, may I have this dance." Her voice caught in her throat and she stared at him for a few minutes before she gained enough sense to nod her head in approval, at least. He lead her to the dance floor and swayed her this way and that, he dipped her low, and then he pulled her back up molding her body to his and leaned in to her. Her heart slammed in her chest; she felt so hot. She looked at him expectantly waiting for the kiss she knew was coming. His face was inches away from hers when he smirked and leaned his head to the side and tantalizingly brushed his lips against her ears, his hot breath caressing the soft skin, and then he whispered, "Meet me on the balcony when the clock strikes eleven o'clock." He spun her out and when she settled and turned around he was gone. She looked up and the clock read nine o'clock.
Suddenly, time started to flash forward around her and her location changed. She was on the balcony. This time though, it was as if she was watching from above. She couldn't control what was happening. She watched as Tuxedo Kamen walked up to her and took her into his arms and held her. He held her back and looked into her eyes and said, "Serenity, this is probably going to be the last night that I see you." She looked at him with wide eyes and asked, "What are you talking about?"
"Beryl is close. Her and her armies are going to be here soon. I have to fight."
"No! You don't have to fight," she yelled, shaking him, "let's run away together. We can leave tonight. Endymion, I love you! Please just leave with my now!" He looked at her with a sad smile on his face. He brought his hands up to cup her face, and pulled her up to him. He placed his lips on hers and began to kiss her gently, but then the kiss grew stronger and his tongue slipped out to trace her lips. She parted them slowly and allowed it entrance. His tongue moved over hers silkily caressing her. His hands started to move lower and cupped her bottom to bring her closer to him, so that there was no space left between their bodies. She could feel the hard point of his erection pressed against her, and she felt her temperature raise many degrees. She lifted her arms from around his waist and draped them around his neck and held on to him tight, trying to pull them even closer. His hand moved up to her breast and started to gently knead it. She moaned into his mouth, and she could feel liquid heat start to pool inside of her.
Then it happened; Endymion let out a cry of pain and fell to the floor dead. She didn't understand what had happened. One second they were standing there, experiencing the most ethereal bliss imaginable, and then he was dead. She started to scream. She looked around to see what had done this, but all she could hear was laughter. When she turned back to look at the body of her lover lying on the ground she saw Beryl standing there, but only for a second, because then evil queen blast her, and her world faded away.
Usagi shot up. She was lying in a bed bruised and beaten. She looked around and realized that she was in a room in Mamoru's house. No one was in the room with her. The shades were pulled to make it as dark as possible. She sat in the bed for a few more minutes before throwing the covers off of her and getting ready to move. She got out of the bed and crumbled to the floor, nearly screaming. Her body was on fire. Every part of her felt like it was being drenched in acid. She couldn't make herself stand back up, she didn't think that her legs would support her. Instead she started to crawl towards the door. When she made it there she felt around the door until she had her hands on the handle. She started to pull herself up and when she was standing she felt around the wall for the light switch, and when she found it she flipped it. On the wall across the room was a mirror. The girl she saw staring back looked horrid. She was bruised on every inch of her body, her left arm had a gash that went from her shoulder all the way down to her wrist, her lip was busted open, and she had multiple scratches all over her body.
She turned around, she couldn't see this anymore. She twisted the handle and opened the door and walked out into the hallway. She leaned against the wall as she slumped down the hall. She called out, "Hello! Is anyone there?" There was no response. She kept walking, looking into the rooms as she passed. When she got to the end she looked down the stairs, but it was pitch black. Now, she was scared. She couldn't remember getting here, honestly she couldn't remember a thing. She remembered talking to Luna on the bench, and then nothing. She put her foot forward to try and walk down the stairs, and that was her first mistake. She lost her footing, and she was about to fall when she felt a strong arm grip her around her waist.
She was pulled backward against a hard chest. She gasped when she felt an all to familiar pair of lips fall onto her ear and whisper, "What are you doing out of bed? You are in no condition to be walking around like this." She stopped breathing. It was Mamoru who was whispering into her ear. She slowly started to turn around to look at him. She reached up and put her hand on his face and whispered, "You're Tuxedo Kamen." It wasn't a question it was a pure statement. She saw him look at her with shock. She could tell he couldn't believe that she would have figured it out without someone telling her point blank who he was. She held her nose up in the air and indignantly proclaimed, "I'm not as stupid as you all believe me to be. I can figure things out on my own."
He chuckled at her and said, "Alright, let me get you in bed." Her heart pounded against her ribcage as she remembered their passion from the moon. She just stared at him for awhile before she realized what he meant and she sheepishly stared at him with a blush on her face and said, "Okay." He led her back down the hall to the room she had just left. He lay her down on the soft mattress and tucked her in gently. She was confused, she didn't understand why he was being so nice to her. The last thing she remembered was him yelling at her. She looked at him and asked, "Why are you being nice to me? I don't understand, you hated me yesterday!" He looked at her with that same sad smile he had given her on the moon, so long ago and he said, "Usagi … you've been asleep for two weeks."
