Seiya POV again.
She looked so peaceful. For the first time since my arrival, she seemed sure of herself. In my arms, she slept, breathing deeply. Nothing bothered her in her dreamland tonight. I was glad she was finally getting some decent sleep.
"Serena," I murmured too softly for anyone to hear, "I love you."
It was nearing midnight; filtered moonlight was illuminating most of the apartment. I marveled at how her seemed to glow like a pearl in the soft, warm light. Elizabeth still hadn't returned from her errands, and on any other night, I would have been worried. But tonight, all that mattered was the sleeping figure in my arms.
Suddenly, the apartment door burst open. Serena jolted awake as somebody stumbled in. Pulling her closer to me, I plunged my hand into my pocket.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to wake you!" a quiet voice apologized from the door.
"Elizabeth! Your back! We were starting to get worried," Serena jumped off the couch, and regretfully took a step away. From where I was sitting, it looked as if she were walking through deep mud, and every step it grew thicker and denser, making her steps more lethargic.
"I'm sorry," Elizabeth repeated, shutting the door with a small click. "I met some people from the university and they gave me a tour of the city. Are your friends alright? The ones you went to help?"
"There fine, thanks for asking," I replied, also standing up, "You must be exhausted!"
"I think I've been awake fro so long that I'm running on pure adrenalin!" she mused.
As her bedroom door clicked shut as well, Serena turned to me.
"Seiya, I think for the first time in a long time I feel whole again. Ever since you left, it's been like there was a hole in my chest. I expected when you'd come back it would close, but it only got larger," she admitted.
"Why?" I urged.
"Because, I realized I could have both you and Darien, but I wanted you both," I pulled her into my chest, hugging her tightly, before she could continue, "and you two were always fighting, I couldn't be with both of you at the same time. All this time I've been trying to decide who holds my heart, when the reality is, you both do, equally. I love you Seiya! I never want you to leave me again."
I was those words that I'd always wanted to hear, and now that I'd heard them, I felt free. Guilt washed over me. I had just taken away half of Darien's girl, but I loved her just as much, didn't I? I deserved her just as much, didn't I?
"I love you too," I answered, gently pressing my lips to hers again. "Now, you need rest. Who knows what Mimet has planned for us next,"
I carried her to her bed and laid her down gently.
"Don't leave," she warned, as I straightened up. Grinning, I lay myself down beside her and pulled her warm body against my own.
"Sleep!" I ordered her.
Darkness enveloped me, it was as if the sunlight had burnt out, and I was alone.
"Serena? Taiki? Yaten? Guys, where are you?" I called, but my voice was immediately swallowed by the darkness. Thick air surrounded me, making it hard to breath and move, but I tried anyways. I had to find them, find her.
Unexpectedly, a golden light blinded me; in the center of the golden light were four figures. Of the four, I immediately recognized three. Sailor Moon, Maker and Healer all stood around the source of the light. It took a moment before I realized I was looking at Sailor Sun.
"Fighter, you are a strong warrior. You fight with your love for your friends. But don't let this love distract you; she will use it against you!" Sailor Sun told me, before disappearing. Again, I was in darkness, alone, helpless. Three lights stared to shine. My friends had found me! Sailor Moon smiled as she stepped closer. She moved effortlessly in the thick air that had me immobile. I reached out to her, ready to touch her warm hands. In a sudden blast, she was engulfed in flames. CRASH! Maker went up in flames as well. CRASH! The last, Maker, started burning.
"No!" I screamed as another loud CRASH resounded. I jolted awake, covered in a cold sweat. Just a dream. I looked over to Serena, for some reason she had an inexplicable look of fear on her face.
CRASH! So that sound wasn't part of my dream.
"SHIT! I cried, jumping to my feet, plunging my hand into my pocket.
"I'll call the others!" Serena informed me hurriedly as I hastened to transform. Racing to the window I saw the cause of the noise. Ten empties were right at our door step.
"Serena, we can't help you! A bunch of empties just arrived here!" I heard Ami reply to Serena's pleads.
"Nor can we! We're under attack too!" Yaten's voice answered.
"Same here!" Raye informed Serena.
"Mimet is dividing us!" an agitated Amara answered in shock.
"What do we do? We can't each hold off ten or more empties! It would kill us!" Serena asked
"We have to try! We can't allow innocent people to get hurt!" Michelle answered.
"Let's do this thing!" I interrupted. They all nodded in agreement. We had to get rid of these monsters.
"We have to take it slow, not waste all our energy on these ones," Sailor Moon explained, "If we both attack the same one at the same time, we can conserve our energy longer!"
"Good idea!" I responded as we sprinted down the stairs.
In small amounts, we killed off the empties, but for everyone we eliminated, a new one took its place.
"There is too many!" I gasped as yet another empty materialized before our eyes.
"We have to try! We have to keep fighting! I love this world and all the people in it! I won't let them get hurt because we gave up!" Sailor Moon snapped.
"You're so strong and pure," I whispered, grinning as we shot down our 15th empty. A disembodied voice filled the night air.
"Sailor Scouts! Nothing can help you now! I have an endless supply of empty souls! And once they eliminate you, I'll be able to find the All-Soul Stone! With it I can bring back my great Princess! Oops, I said too much!"
"Princess?" I asked quietly.
"She was a minion of Pharaoh Ninety," Sailor Moon replied, equally confused.
"Wise Princess Beryl! Daughter of Queen Beryl and the Wise Man! She has all their powers combined! And to escape the Negaverse and bring silence and destruction to this galaxy, she needs the All-Soul Stone!" Mimet explained.
"Beryl?"
"Don't you see Scouts? I was in a place hovering between life and death. I was unable to contact the living, but also unable to join the dead. That was when Princess Beryl found me. We both had damaged soul stones, in the same situation, she told me of a way I could live again, she told me how I could bring myself back and help rule the universe. The All-Soul Stone was the only way. She gave me the damaged pieces of her stone and we merged them. I was once again able to walk on earth, for fleeting moments. Once I get my hands on that stone, the Princess and I will eliminate Sailor Lumiere and Noir and let lose Hell! All those Empty souls with nothing will be whole again! And with all those pure evil souls, we will rejoin chaos! This galaxy will end! It will be mine!" she laughed shrilly.
"If they reincarnate Chaos, we surely won't defeat it this time!" I swore.
"Don't worry, you wont have to see Chaos' reincarnation! You end now Scouts!"
"Not if I have anything to say about it!" A golden light filled the night. Empty souls cringed at it's intensity.
"Who…who are you?" Mimet asked, shocked.
"I am Sailor Sun, Light of the Galaxy, and I cannot allow you to destroy this peace that we have fought for generations to achieve!"
"Who are you to stop me?" Mimet spat. Sailor Sun grinned.
"Ultra Violent Elimination!" she screamed. All the empties that were before us had disappeared.
"You're the one!" Mimet answered stunned.
"I am the most powerful scout in the galaxy. My light is the warmth for all the planets and stars!" Sailor Sun told her.
"You will regret coming here, Sailor Sun!"
"I regret nothing!" she spat back. A laugh filled the air, and dissolved into the night. Mimet was gone, for now. I watched as Sailor Sun's limbs trembled and she fell to the ground. She whimpered slightly as she tried to hold her scout form.
"You fought bravely," I mumbled.
"Yes you did," Sailor Moon replied, "your very strong!"
"Not strong enough! I fear that I used all my energy trying to eliminate all those Empties," she gasped. She held her face in her hands, breathing deeply. She was starting to fade back to human form.
"Sailor Sun!" Sailor Moon screamed.
"I'm alright," Sailor Sun promised, "All the power I have was used to destroy all those Empties. I'm just fading back to my human self." Sailor Moon held Sun in her arms as the new scout's breathing grew more labored, until finally she pasted out. No longer was Sailor Moon holding Sailor Sun in her arms, but a young girl about nineteen years old.
a/n: I hope you enjoyed that! I hpe you understood Mimet's ranting. Basically all the enemies have started combining their powers to kill the Scouts and bring a long awaited Silence to the world!
