The Forgotten One

Chapter 10

The fighting on Earth had lasted for days. The rebels had overtaken the castle and Prince (well technically King) Endymion and Sailor Guardian, with the remaining guard, were forced into the forest surrounding it. They were fighting a losing battle and their moral was low. There were rumors that the Generals were in fact fighting with the rebels at the side of the leader, Beryl, who had once been a noble but disappeared after becoming angry her attempts to attach herself to Endymion were unsuccessful. The news about the Generals was a huge blow and set Endymion into a depressed state, not only were they his personal guard but also his best friends. Sailor Guardian was at a loss for what to do she was hurting for her brother and grieving at the loss of their parents, they were in no shape to lead they hadn't been ready for this, and she was frustrated at the fact they couldn't even reach out for help, they were alone in this. Celeste was resting after another attack when one of the guards ran up.

"Princess, I have news from the castle."

"What is it Terrance?"

"It seems that the rebels goal was bigger than we thought. They plan to attack the Moon Kingdom as well. They are launching their attack as we speak, the Lunarians have no idea what is coming. At least we should get a break they won't focus on us while they attack the Moon"

"OH! Thank you, you may leave, but say nothing to anyone at the moment please. I will speak to my brother." She watched the guard leave, pain now showing on her face. She knew that the only ones hurt by this news would be herself and her brother. The rest of Earth, with the exception of maybe her parents before, could care less and actually envied those on the Moon they would not be upset if the Moon Kingdom fell. She got up in search of Endymion and found him talking strategy with a few of the other...well I guess they were the rebels now.

"Endy, I need to speak with you for a moment, its very important."

Nodding he walked over to her and they moved into the woods where they could speak privately. Celeste then relayed to her brother the news she had gotten and watch as his face turned to horror.

"NO Serenity!" He hissed, "we have to do something we have to help them!"

"What can we do brother we can't reach them? We have no access to the pad to get us there, and no one would help, you know that."

"Well I can just sit here waiting to die knowing they are in danger. I will find a way. I'll sneak in to the gardens and get there if its the last thing I do."

"Well you can't do it alone, I'm coming with you. They're my friends too." Brother and sister looked at each other determined but neither had any hope in their eyes.

A little while later the two snuck away from the temporary camp they had set up and made their way stealthily towards the castle. They managed to reach the castle and slip into the gardens undetected, it helped knowing all the secret entrances and hidden passageways. They worked their way to the corner where a small transportation pad sat, a secondary one that was not used often and not many knew about so it was not guarded or being used by the rebels. Looking at each other they only paused a moment, only momentarily allowing themselves a minute of guilt for abandoning their kingdom even knowing there was no other option, and stepped on the pad disappearing in an instant.

They found themselves in the familiar greyness of the Moon, but the difference was astounding, instead of a cool calmness the grey seemed bleak and despairing. The sound of fighting could also be heard. Endymion and Sailor Guardian started running towards the castle hoping they weren't too late.

They reached the steps of the castle quickly and that also happened to be the sight of the fighting as well. Looking out Sailor Guardian could see the four inner scouts in the midst of the fighting but struggling as well and when she looked closer she saw that the scouts were in fact fighting none other than Endymion's Generals she let out a pained cry. This caught endymions attention and when he saw what she was looking at he turned away pain on his face.

"Come we must go. There's nothing we can do for them now. I HAVE to find Serenity." They climbed the steps but before they could enter the castle Sailor Mars jumped in their way, having temporarily pushed Jadiete back.

"Have you turned on us now too? I won't let you through if that is the case!" She glared at them in a mixture of anger and despair.

"NO Mars, I'm so sorry we didn't know they'd come after you after destroying us. We came as soon as we could!" Guardian stepped up and in front of Endymion before he could lose his cool.

"Oh I'm so glad. Go the Queen and Princess are inside in the throne room. I think Pluto is with them as well. We've got things covered here." She said this last part without conviction as she jumped back into the fight. Guardian and Endymion raced up the steps and went to go through the doors and as they did they heard a cry turning breifly as they ran they watched as Sailor Jupiter fell...

Entering the castle they ran through the lobby and up the steps to the hallway leading to the throne room. Reaching the hallway they stopped short as a tall figure blocked their way. Endymion held out his sword but a moment later both sighed in relief recognizing Sailor Pluto as the one blocking them.

"Pluto! I'm so glad you are ok." Guardian ran up and quickly hugged her friend.

"I am glad as well, you are both ok. I wasn't sure, there were so many possible futures. Come the Queen is in the throne room and Serenity is in her rooms, we must get together." They turned and continued forward deciding Sailors Guardian and Pluto would go directly to the Queen and Endymion would go to Princess Serenity and bring her to them.

Sailor Guardian was slightly behind the other two watching their backs when something came out of the shadows beside her. A hand grasped her mouth and she felt a strange sensation in her back and stomach. Confused she looked down and saw a metal point protruding from her stomach. The hand dropped from her mouth, with wide eyes she looked at the man who had run her through with his sword and she recognized him as one of the guards who had been at the castle since she was a child.

"Why?" she cried in pain.

"You are all traitors!" He hissed into her ear and pulled the sword from her body, with that he disappeared. This caused guardian to collapse to her hands and knees in pain, crying out. She felt the darkness creeping up on her and fell to the ground. The last thing she saw before the darkness took her was her brother and best friend turning a corner and leaving her alone.

Celeste was in the darkness for what seemed like forever, st some point however she started to notice voices and movement around her. A little while later she was able to slowly open her eyes and blinked as she tried to get used to her surroundings. Moving her head slightly she managed to take in where she was. She coughed and gasped in both tremendous pain and surprise. She was on a set of steps in the throne room...ON EARTH! She was home. But how? Was the fighting over? What had happened and how long had she been out? Where was Endy and Pluto?

"Ah I see our young princess is awake." a harsh strange voice came out of nowhere and Celeste struggled to prop herself up on her elbows groaning in pain and the blackness threatening to take her again.

"Easy my dear, you don't want to open your injuries again you may not make it this time." She blinked looking at the man who was speaking to her. He was extremely tall and had dark chocolate brown hair and the same coloured eyes. His face was long and chiseled, he would be very handsome if he hadn't looked so... cruel. "Oh forgive me, let me introduce myself, my name is Leonidis."

"Wh-what happened? Why am I here? Where is everyone?" She stumbled on the words panic setting in.

"Well thats easy princess. We won, the Moon Kingdom is no more. And you my princess are all alone everyone else left you and you are the only one left."

AN: So this is the end of the main flashback. There will be smaller bits to add in the next few chapters but I hope you liked what I've done so far with it. I can't wait to do a prequel to this story :P.
