The car ride to Usagi's house was on-edge and silent. When jadeite pulled up to Usagi's house he turned to her,
"I really am sorry Princess, I didn't mean it, that situation was completely different I just want you to be more careful. What would the Senshi do without you? What would the generals do without you? What will Endymion do without you when he gets his memory returned? Think about it okay?" Jadeite said gently.
"Okay," Usagi answered, "Thanks for caring Jadeite, I know you only have my best interests at heart." Then she got out and walked to her house slowly.
Through the next few days everyone was busy. Rei, Jadeite, Nephrite and Makoto were going on double dates and getting closer really rapidly. Ami was either constantly at the different schools that she attended or calling Usagi and making sure she was alright and went to Mamoru's (which she hadn't yet but told everyone she did). Usagi was 'taking it easy' and doing her speech Princess lessons with Luna because she couldn't go to school and called in extremely sick. Well her parents did when Usagi faked it. Luna, after about four days of this, called an important Senshi meeting about the Ginzuishou and nijizuishou.
"This is a very important meeting," Luna said once they had all sat down at the temple (Jadeite drove Usagi over), "Pay close attention. We've known that the Ginzuishou is a pretty powerful crystal, but my information tells me that it is powerful enough to completely decimate an entire planet."
"What?" Rei's eyes bugged out.
"That's not all," Luna continued, "The nijizuishou are the seven chips of the Ginzuishou, that's why the Negaverse are after them. The Ginzuishou was broken into seven pieces when it was used to trap the seven horrible youmas during the fall of the Moon Kingdom. They were sent to earth and reborn into humans. If the Negaverse gets all seven of the nijizuishou they can obtain the Ginzuishou."
"Don't worry," Makoto said, "With me around it'll be okay."
"Hey!" Rei screamed, "That was my line!"
"Girls, Girls," Nephrite and Jadeite said simultaneously.
"But Luna, how will we track the nijizuishou? The Negaverse have the Kurozuishou…" Ami asked.
"The moon wand Usagi has responds to the nijizuishou if it gets close to one of the holder," Luna responded.
"Then I don't think that Usagi should have it," Rei cried out, "She'll use it as her daily tool!"
"Let Usagi be the leader Rei," Luna pleaded, "She was destined for the role, maybe there is something more to her than we all see."
"I disagree," rei continued, "I think we should appoint a new responsible leader."
"I think Usagi is a great lead… Ow!" Ami said when Rei pinched her leg, hard.
"I don't know Usagi well enough to decide, but judging by the last battle I think that she can do it," Makoto imputed.
"I am positive that she can do it," Jadeite smiled at Usagi.
"I second that," Nephrite said.
Rei pouted.
"Thanks you guys," Usagi smiled, "I hate to cut his short, but I have homework to do," she said standing up.
"Usagi did you go over and see Mamoru today?" Ami asked.
"Yeah," Usagi said walking towards the door.
"When?" Jadeite asked puzzled, he lived with Mamoru and knew his schedule and there wasn't time for Mamoru to check her out when Jadeite wasn't there.
"I just did alright," Usagi said and walked out.
"Since when did Usagi do homework?" Rei asked stunned.
"I think there's something up with her…" Makoto answered staring at the door.
Usagi didn't go straight home after she left. She had been thinking, on the Moon thousands, if not millions, of her people died in the end, everyone. But none of them were buried, none were attributed, none had a proper memorial. Usagi, instead of going home, went to a cemetery to speak to the gajin minister.
"Father, I have a question," Usagi said walking up to the minister.
"Ask your question child."
"If a whole nation was destroyed, and none of them had a proper burial or rites, would their souls rest and pass on?"
"Child…" The minister began, when Usagi's moon wand started to react.
"A youma is going to appear," Usagi said tensing up and walking a little away from the minister.
"Mako-Chan," Usagi said through the communicator, "I need your help at the cemetery."
"I'll be there as soon as possible," Mako-Chan answered, "I'm in Chinatown."
Usagi cut off the communicator and went somewhere to transform quickly. Suddenly Zoycite appeared before the gajin minister.
"Who are you?" the minister demanded.
"It doesn't matter who I am," Zoycite replied, "what matters is that I can show you your true identity."
Zoycite took out his Kurozuishou.
"I've got to help the minister," Usagi said urgently, "MOON PRISM POWER!"
Sailor Moon ran out to the battle just in time to see the nijizuishou fly out of the minister and into the tall grass.
"Where did it go! I must find the nijizuishou," Zoycite panicked and started feeling and looking around in the grass for it.
The minister transformed into a boxer youma seconds later. The youma was very dim looking with bird feet, wings, boxing gloves and a boxing bell on his belt.
"Bokushi, get rid of that pesky Sailor Moon!" Zoycite commanded as he was standing up out of the grass and looking around furiously while standing.
"I'm really not a boxer," Sailor Moon said sweat-dropping and waving her hands back and forth in front of her face.
The boxer youma ran over to Sailor Moon and was about to land a punch on her (which would have knocked her out) but Tuxedo Mask showed up and saved her at the last second.
"A minister shouldn't hit girls," he announced, "You should hold them softly."
The boxer youma then turned and started off to attack Tuxedo Mask. Tuxedo Mask put Sailor Moon down gently, knowing that she still wasn't healed.
"Please try to be careful," he whispered to her and ran off to fight the boxer youma. Sailor Moon saw something golden fall from under his cape as he turned to run off. She walked over and picked it up carefully.
"The star locket," she gasped, then looked up and watch Tuxedo Mask fight the youma.
"SUPREME THUNDER!" Sailor Jupiter announced her arrival to the youma.
The now baked boxer youma fell to the ground, Sailor Moon saw this as her chance to end the fight before someone got seriously hurt.
"Moon Healing Annihilation!"
The boxer youma then transformed back into the gajin minister. Tuxedo Mask went over to Sailor Moon.
"You really need your bandages changed and your wound to be checked, no matter how stubborn you are Usagi, please go and see Mamoru," Tuxedo Mask pleaded to her, then turned to leave. He saw something glittering on the ground a few feet away, he walked over and picked it up.
"A nijizuishou?" he looked at it questionably, then he left quickly.
"I'll get that nijizuishou from you," Zoycite hollered angrily towards the direction where Tuxedo Mask had disappeared. Then Zoycite himself jumped through a portal and disappeared.
"Sailor Moon, get the nijizuishou from him!" Luna shouted, she had come with Sailor Jupiter.
Sailor Moon just turned and walked out of the park, ignoring Luna's yelling for her.
Tuxedo Mask landed on the roof of his apartment building and was looking intently at the nijizuishou he had just gotten. He then transformed back into Mamoru.
"It's not just part of my weird dreams," Mamoru muttered to himself dazed, "I'm really Tuxedo Mask, and Sailor Moon is Usagi…"
Usagi walked home extremely slowly, knowing that Luna was there and ready to blow her top at her for not listening and just taking off. But how could she possible fight Tuxedo Mask for it? He was Mamoru, he was Endymion, he was her HUSBAND.
"Ah," Usagi whimpered and looked over to her injured side, it had re-opened from that battle and she hadn't gone to see Mamoru yet. She had to figure out whether he was just careless with their locket or if he actually recognized her before she went over to his apartment again. But he had called her Usagi, he knew her true identity, but did he know his own yet? It was way too much for her to think about, so she just clamped her hand to her slightly bleeding side, applied pressure and walked home.
"Why didn't you go after him instead of walking away and ignoring me!" Luna exploded as Usagi walked into her room, as anticipated.
"Luna, can we please not do this right now?" Usagi pleaded as she laid down on her bed, careful to hide the little stain of blood from her now re-opened wound.
"If not now when Princess?" Luna continued her rant, "I understand that you two were married, but that was a millennia ago…"
"Luna you have no idea what I'm going through," Usagi finally exploded, "Sure it was a thousand years ago when we were married, but that bond is still as strong and still as full of love as it was on the day we were married. I can feel it and he can too, he just hasn't recognized it yet as love. I remember it as plain as if it were yesterday in my mind and my heart. When we said our vows on the Moon, on the Earth and in the Temple those vows were forever, bonded by the Moon, Earth and Goddess. I will never turn my back on my husband no matter what we go through. Someday he will regain his memory also and we'll live happily ever after like we were meant to!" Usagi ended in tears.
.:Flashback:.
Earth/A thousand years prior
"Sere, you're my angel, sent from the heavens above to be with me. You're the gift that I have been blessed with by the gods. I love you more then my life, more than the universe and pledge my love for you from now until forever. Even in death I'll always be with you, I'll never leave you, ever. This I promise you, I promise to love, cherish and honor you, forever."
"Now, please present the rings to bind these promises," the Priest said, giving the sign for their rings.
Serenity's face looked shocked, she hadn't bought a ring! Or at last she thought she hadn't, until Rei pressed one into her hand.
"With this ring, I'm hereby wed," Serenity said, slipping the ring onto Endymion's finger.
"With this ring, I hereby wed," Endymion said, slipping a diamond ring onto Serenity's finger. Serenity started to cry happily.
"With that said," deemed the Priest, "I do so pronounce you, by these witnesses here, and under the Gods, Husband and Wife. You may kiss your bride."
Moon/A thousand years prior
"We are gathered here, in this place, today to not only witness the coming together of two people that love each other greatly, but to witness the bonding of two planets together. The Moon and the Earth. If there is anyone in this place who has just reason why these two cannot be wed, please speak now, or forever hold you peace," Queen Serenity said.
Rei looked at Seiya, who was glaring evilly at Endymion and was about to open his big yap when one of Rei's anti-demon papers hit his mouth, causing him to be unable to speak. Luckily the Queen didn't notice.
"Very Well," the Queen pressed on, "Prince Endymion, crowned Prince of Earth, repeat after me, I Endymion, Crowned Prince of Earth, hereby give my life and heart to Princess Serenity of the Moon. And pledge my allegiance to the Moon and Earth forever and ever. I am Princess Serenity's as she is mine, for all eternity from this day onward."
"I Endymion, Crowned Prince of Earth, hereby give my life and heart to Princess Serenity of the Moon. And pledge my allegiance to the Moon and Earth forever and ever. I am Princess Serenity's as she is mine, for all eternity from this day onward." Endymion repeated, then slipped Serenity's second wedding band on her finger.
"Now, Princess Serenity, crowned Princess of the Moon, repeat after me," the Queen said once more, "I Serenity, Crowned Princess of the Moon, hereby give my life and heart to Prince Endymion of Earth. And pledge my allegiance to the Moon and Earth forever and ever. I am Prince Endymion's as he is mine, for all eternity from this day onward." Serenity smiled as she placed Endymion's second band on his finger.
"By the power vested in me, by Kami and Artemis Goddess of the Moon, I pronounce you Man and wife in the eyes of the Heavens, the Moon, the Earth and all of the planets in the Silver Alliance. You may now kiss your bride," She told Endymion at the end.
The Temple/ A thousand Years Prior
"Prince Endymion of Earth," Queen Serenity called him forward and he kneeled before her, "Do you accept to protect the Moon and her Future Queen forevermore?"
"Yes," Endymion replied.
"Do you accept to take on all future diplomatic responsibilities as future King to the Moon?"
"Yes."
"Do you accept your connection with the Moon, thus the Princess, your wife forevermore?"
"Yes."
"Do you accept to love the future Queen forevermore?"
"Yes."
"All these things you have sworn in the eyes of the Goddess of the Moon, and if these vows are broken, may she smite you with her mighty bow," Serenity said, "But on a lighter note, Prince Endymion of Earth, Crowned Prince of the Earthians, I know crown you Prince of the Moon, and Future King of the Silver Millennium," Queen Serenity then place the crown on his head.
Then it was Princess Serenity's turn to be crowned by the King and Queen of Earth. They walked up to the crown that was for Serenity.
"Princess Serenity of the Moon," Queen Terra called her forward and Serenity kneeled before her, "Do you accept to be loyal to the Earth and her Future King forevermore?"
"Yes," Serenity replied.
"Do you accept to take on all future diplomatic responsibilities as future Queen of the Earth?" King Ryu asked.
"Yes."
"Do you accept your connection with the Earth, thus the Prince, your Husband forevermore?"
"Yes."
"Do you accept to love the future King forevermore?"
"Yes."
"All these things you have sworn to the King, and if these vows are broken, you may be prosecuted under the laws of the Earth," Ryu said, "Princess Serenity of the Moon, Crowned Princess of the Lunarians, I know crown you Princess of the Earth," Queen Terra then place the crown on her head.
They walked out of the Temple after the crowning was complete and looked around, half of the Moon was there by now and about 1/6 of the Earth.
"Presenting," Queen Serenity announced, "Crowned Prince Endymion and Princess Serenity of the Moon and Earth."
Everyone cheered excitedly at their new Prince and Princess.
.:End Flashback:.
Usagi ran out of the house leaving an extremely stunned Luna. Usagi walked down the street and wiped the tears from her eyes. Transforming, bleeding, and using her moon wand all in one day really took a lot out of her and almost completely drained her of her energy. She walked a few more feet, slowing down rather quickly, each step leaving her a bit more light headed. The last thing she remembered before she passed out was seeing someone tall with dark hair walking towards her.
She woke up a few hours later in a very familiar apartment.
