Hey, look I updated twice in one month

Hey, look I updated twice in one month!! WOO!!

Last Time:

"What was that?" Darien asked confused.

"I couldn't sleep, so I was wondering if I could sleep with you, I always feel better in your arms." Serene admitted. Darien laughed and opened the covers to Serena as she dove in next to Darien. She snuggled into his arms and found her place underneath his chin, where she fit perfectly. They slowly drifted to sleep when Serena opened her eyes.

"Wait, why were you still awake?" Serena asked as she looked up. Darien smiled.

"I was waiting for you." He whispered into the night.

Last time had some gushy moments….there will be no gushy moments in this. So you might as well put on some hard core rock or some "300" Soundtrack Music, because that's what I'm listening to, and it fits the mood perfectly. Just FYI


This time:

A light fog rolled in over Tokyo, plants wilted as the dense material sucked in the life. A cold wind swept in, leaving windows chilled and frozen. The once cool spring night turned chilled, and left in its path a temperature of ice. Clouds rolled in obscuring the once full moon. A young moon princess, suddenly felt weak, as she shivered from the cold. Her prince's arm no longer warm, but frigid, like ice. She turned to him, only to see him still sleeping peacefully. She dragged her feet across the carpet, each fiber like ice, and her body already numb. The thermostat read seventy-two, yet she could see her breath. She rubbed her arms as she walked silently through the apartment. She noted the still sleeping scouts, their bodies slowly breathing in and out. She looked to the balcony and saw the rolling fog. She touched the door only to pull back and she was burned from the cold temperature. (It's like dry ice 10x over) She grabbed a blanket and wrapped her hand and tried to open the door again. This time the door opened difficulty as it broke through the ice holding it. Her small frame wrapped in a tank and bottoms was not prepared for the harsh north wind that flicked her pigtails in the air. Her body fell to the floor in pain and the wind hit her like daggers. Her lips turned blue as she struggled to reach the door, where it was slightly warmer, only to have it shut behind her, trapping her in this frozen tundra. She curled up in a ball, as Darien's plants froze and broke, shattering into a thousand pieces. Ice started to form on her hair and her fingers became brittle and curled, all in attempt to stay warm. She tried to say something, but her voice was useless, her broach inside on her dresser. She closed her eyes screaming for Darien's help, only to receive silence. She could feel every bone in her body become brittle as her last few breaths froze. She looked up to see a dark figure across the sky. His skeleton hands outreached to her. His eyes a bloody crimson, the gleam of black as his mouth opened to reveal carnivorous teeth. He howled like an animal, and then rushed forward to her dying form. Her lungs with their last breath screamed bloody murder as his hands shut her up crushing her windpipe as he starred at her with his scarlet eyes.


Darien bolted out of his room to the balcony as Serena screamed into the night, clawing at her neck. Her face was turning blue, her eyes a lifeless blue, fighting some invisible demon. He looked at the plants, all dead, frozen almost. He tried to reach for Serena, her body ice, but some force was holding her in place. He punched the air, trying to help his gasping girlfriend. The scouts stood behind him, Ami furiously scanning for the cause of her pain. The rest were confused and scared as they were helpless to fight. Darien closed his eyes and searched for his link with Serena; he found the weak link and looked at the world around him. It was an icy hell. No moon like in his world, nothing was visible except the fog which obscured all vision. He looked to Serena to still see her struggling, this time a demon holding her down by the throat. The demon looked to Darien and gave a grin, his teeth covered with tar or some black liquid. He charged at the demon, knocking him off of Serena. She sputtered, trying to catch her breath, gasping. She weakly looked to see Darien holding back the demon, his skeleton hands burning the flesh off of Darien's hands, his small shouts of pain the only sign of his torture.

Serena weakly opened her mind to Rei, searching out the Shinto priestess.


"Rei can you hear me?" Serena screamed. Inside her mind she was screaming, to the rest of the girls Darien was now screaming and small hand prints appeared on his wrists. Serena was still unconscious as was Darien. Rei jolted as she heard her princess voice, she silently opened her mind.

"Please, if you can hear me, unleash one of your fire attacks, right now, we live in a world of ice; your fire can help us. I promise you, it won't hurt us! Just attack the whole area of the balcony!" She screamed, as the sounds of Darien's shouts became louder as the demon began to have to upper hand. Rei's eyes opened and she pushed all the girls past the window. They all looked at her with confusion as she began her chant summoning the fire within her.

"Mars Fire Ignite!" Rei screamed the screams of terror from Lita, Mina, and Ami as they thought their fellow scout had gone mad, attacking their prince and princess.

"No! What I are you doing?" Lita yelled as she tried to get through Rei. Lita pushed through only to see a demon appear screaming as he was burned alive. His skin melting as a black smoke erupted from the sky, swallowing the dying demon. She looked to see Serena and Darien, unscathed. Both were panting and sporting bruises.

"Oh gosh, what just happened?" Mina asked as she helped pick up Serena as Lita and Rei helped Darien. Serena has black bruises on her neck, her voice harsh and weak.

"I was woken up by being cold, all of you were asleep." Serena whispered, her voice straining, the sound forced. "I was so cold. There was a fog outside, I found it strange. The window was frozen shut, and it burned like fire." Serena whispered, only to begin a coughing fit.

"It's okay Serena's you don't have to say anymore, just rest your throat." Ami said as she went to Darien's red burn marks on his wrists.

"What about you?" Lita asked. Darien hissed as she applied some burn crème.

"I went inside Serena's mind to see what was attacking her, when I got there, that demon had her by the throat, so I pushed him, which he continued to attack me instead. His hands were like acid." Darien winced as Rei wrapped his arms.

"Do I need to ask who was behind this?" Mina asked to no one. Solemn faces looked at each other. Serena lightly massaged her neck where black bruises covered most of her neck. Silence was screaming as they realized they could be attacked anywhere, anytime. The sunlight barley passed the tops of the buildings, signaling the beginning of a new day.

"What do we do now?" Rei asked. Everyone looked to Serena and Darien. Their faces worried and stressed. There time was cut short as Luna and Artemis jumped in screaming there was an attack at the shopping center. The girls all nodded and ran off the balcony transforming as they rushed to the attack. Serena and Darien stood on the balcony looking to the horizon. Their shouts of transformations carried into the morning sun as they headed to the battlefield.


There was no time for petty speeches, attacks were made, not introductions. There were four monsters, all demonic in their own way. One was covered in armor wielding a sword made of ice. Its eyes a piercing blue, boring into the soul, chilling to the boned. Another was a demon, black and quiet, but when it opened its mouth, fire erupted from its stomach, burning anything in its path. Two mailboxes and four lamps proved the intensity of the heat. The third was a green goblin, jumping up and down, leaving craters in its wake, the sheer strength of the creature unbelievable. The fourth was a small lithe thing with nails longer than most arms, it danced around slicing everything. When Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask had arrived, each Sailor was paired up with their own demon. Mercury with Ice, Mars, with Fire, Jupiter with Lightning, and Venus with the Light, all fighting, their powers equal. Sailor Moon looked around for an opening. There was nothing they could do at the moment, in risk of injuring one of the Sailors. When Jupiter screamed; the goblin standing on her leg, a small crater forming; Moon jumped in. Tuxedo dragged Jupiter away from the fight while he reset her leg. The other Sailors appeared to be losing as well. Soon only Moon was left, she was simply dodging their attacks as she bounced from place to place.

The other scouts rushed in only to be stopped by Tuxedo Mask.

"Wait, go to your opposite, Mercury, you can cool down Mars's demon, while Mars's can heat up the Ice one!" Tuxedo said as he carefully watched Sailor Moon. The sailors got the idea and split up fighting the demons. Soon, the ice and fire demon were disposed of easily. Now only two were left. It was now six against two. The odds on their side as the demons realized they were outnumbered.

"Okay ladies, lets finish this, Tuxedo Mask needs a cup of coffee." He said as he lunged for the quick demon hoping to catch it so they could attack. They were two blurs as they moved faster and faster. Only glimpses in the sun, or the aftermath of one of their punches. The goblin was electrocuted by the combo of Venus and Jupiter as Mercury froze it. Sailor Moon grabbed her tiara and said familiar words as she unleashed her discus, sending it to pieces. One down, one more to go they thought as they directed their full attention to the speeding fighters around them.

"Alright Tuxedo Mask, we've got him! Mercury yelled as Tuxedo jumped behind the girls. The dancer stopped in front of them. It flicked its nails moving them around in an intricate pattern. The gleam of her nails was reflected off the sun as she sharpened them menacingly.

"Okay, Mars head for behind it, corner it so one of us can render in defenseless." Mercury shouted. The girls nodded and circled it, making the area for the demon to run around smaller and smaller. Before long, the girls had the demon right where they wanted it when a pink and black beam shot out of nowhere throwing Venus into a brick wall. Jupiter ran after her to check if she was alright, only to realize half way that now the demon had a way out, now that half the flank was gone. Jupiter screamed back to control the demon as it ran away, heading to Tuxedo Mask. Sailor Moon caught on and pushed Tuxedo Mask out of the way into a glass window, sending shards everywhere. Both were knock out cold as only Mars, Mercury, and Jupiter were conscious.

Tuxedo Mask groaned as he pulled a shard out of his thigh, looking over to Sailor Moon who was still out cold. He noticed that she didn't have any shards in her like he did, only scratches littering her body. He winced knowing she would be aching all over very soon.

"Serena, wake up. The scouts need you." Darien said as he pushed her gently. He heard a moan and a hiss as all the pain hit her at once. Her blue eyes popped open as she went to her knees stumbling to rise. Darien leveled her as she nodded that she was fine. She ran to her fellow friends as the demon continued to slice away at them. It looked like they had all jumped through a window or two with the amount of cuts on their bodies. Tuxedo Mask rushed to help Venus as she recovered from her attack.

"What was that?" Mina asked Darien as he lifted her arm over his shoulder. He body still slack and weak. He dragged and pulled her to a safe spot as he heard a scream that was very familiar. Sailor Moon was sent flying past them into a bench where she was strewn across. He quickly left Venus sorry Venus and ran to Moon. She was slow getting up as he spotted the cause of her flying. He looked to the crater as he saw that there was a large hole inside the demon, no inflicted by any of the scouts, but by Rini as her smile glinted in the morning light. Her hand outstretched still smoking from her attack. Mars, Mercury, and Jupiter lay around the crater as well, although not as affected at Sailor Moon due to the fact that she was in front of her attack.


The demon turned her gaping hole in her stomach smoking as black liquid oozed out onto the ground. Its face etched in a painful emotion. It stumbled as it turned around. It fell to its knees.

"My lady, why…" It asked as it coughed with short breaths.

"Oh, my tiny dancer, I tired of you, so what do you do to a dancer, you get rid of it." Black Lady said as she walked closer to the dying dancer. It scampered away, trying to run from its mistress. Black Lady smiled and cupped the cheek of the demon. It kissed her hand, pleading for its life as Rini didn't acknowledge it at all.

Time moved in slow motion as Black Lady brought up her other hand and launched a black and pink attack dissolving the dancer, her screams like nails on a chalkboard. Sailor Moon covered her mouth in horror as the demon was pleading for its life.

"Rini, how can you be so cruel?" Mars screamed

"No one deserves that kind of fate, she was pleading for her life, and yet you killed her with no after thought!" Jupiter screamed.

Black Lady only smiled and laughed as she pointed to the ashes that were left behind.

"Do you mean that pathetic creature?" She asked innocently

"Yes, why did you murder someone on your own side?" Sailor Moon asked

"Well don't you do the same thing, kill them? I mean I was only ending the inevitable." She exclaimed.

"If they had asked for forgiveness I would have given it to them, I could never kill someone who was pleading for their lives!" Sailor Moon yelled.

"So you would let me live even if…." She said as she trailed on. It was like she was thinking of what to do.


Her face a sadistic smile plastered. She suddenly flew to Tuxedo Mask and held him by throat as she held a sword above his head. His top hat and mask gone, his midnight hair cascaded over his eyes. The blue shining through as he quickly moved around backing into a wall. Serena ran with all her might, the screams of the scouts were drowned out as the steady beating of her heart was the only sound. She moved faster and faster, time moving slower and slower. The sword inches away, her lungs screamed with pain as she watched her own daughter's hand moving down the sword. The sword pierced through skin, the screams of pain rang throughout the world as its son lost his life. The Earth shook as its only son bled onto the ground.


And with the Earth's prince, came the Moon's princess. She stood in front of him. Her arms spread wide, hoping to stop the path. She faced her love, their blue eyes meeting, both in great pain, as the same sword pierced their shared hearts. The silver sword had gone threw Serenity staining her white dress, the crimson paint falling like rain. Straight threw into a dark chest of metal. An eternal embrace as the sword went in through Serenity, and ended in Endymion. The Sailor Scouts were on their knees screaming and crying as their charges died.

Black Lady was surprised. She pulled the sword out; the agonizing screams of her parents scared her as she fell back. Serenity fell back as Endymion fell to his knees. He coughed blood onto the earth. Rain formed as the Earth mourned for their dying prince. Her lifeless form barely moved as she reached for Small Lady's hand. Her pale fingers coated with blood.

"I could never hurt you my child." Serenity whispered. Her tears were streaming down her cheeks as she stroked Black Lady's hair, slowly combing through her candy tresses.

"Mommy, Daddy!" Black Lady screamed as a pure light originated from inside as she became the little girl they had all wished for

"No Mommy, I'm so sorry, please do not die! I tried to save you, no, don't leave me all alone!" Rini cried.

"Daddy, don't leave me here! I need you." She screamed as she looked to the fallen scouts. He smiled at his daughter and with love filled eyes he mouthed his goodbyes.

The rain poured as Endymion fell to his chest. He reached out for Serenity, her white dress now a ruby red as she took her last breath. Her eyes full of love, all directed to him. He coughed with a smile as he squeezed her lifeless hand. Rini crawled to him only to be pulled away by Lita as she cradled the screaming child.

"My Prince, we have failed you." Mina said, choking as she looked to her own dead princess. The rain poured as the thunder rolled. The Earth shuddered with each dying gasp of its prince.

"Please my Prince, don't leave!" Rei pleaded as she held on to him. He wasn't looking at any of them. His eyes placed on his sleeping Serenity.

"She is calling for me." He whispered. The rain plastered his hair to his face. His dying eyes seeing something that was not there.

"Go to her my Prince, she waiting with open arms." Ami said as she fell to her knees. Her sobs racked her body. Rini was now hysterical as both her parents died. Lita held on to her holding her, shielding her eyes from the death.


"This was not supposed to happen." A voice said. The scouts turned defeated.

Sailor Pluto stood before them, the rain sticking to her as she cupped the cheek of her princess. Her eyes were worried as she unscrewed the top of her key staff. Rini stared at Pluto as she whispered something to the wind. The sound of peace covered the world.


Serena screamed as she jolted awake, her movements stirred Darien as he groaned with annoyance. She ran to the bathroom and splashed water on her face. She felt a burning scar and lifted her shirt. A thin healed scar was visible. She heard a noise and looked to the door. There Darien stood shirtless and sleepy.

"What's the matter Serena?" He asked concerned. He massaged her shoulders as she took deep breaths.

"Nothing, just an old scar hurting." Serena lied.

"The one from where we died?" Darien asked fully awake now. Serena looked shocked, wondering if he had the same weird dream.

"I still have dreams about how you died on the Silver Millennium. You said that you committed suicide after I died. I can't imagine the pain you went through. I know I still have dreams of my death from there too. Does it hurt?" he asked as he continued his massage. Serena nodded.

"Come back to bed, it's still early. The girls are still sleeping. I doubt a little beauty rest will hurt any of them." Darien said as he grabbed her hand. She lay next to him as he wrapped his arms around her. She was tucked underneath his chin as she fell back asleep.


Pluto stood before the cosmos as a booming voice condemned her to death for her crimes against the time continuum.

"For disturbing the time and lives of Prince Endymion of Earth and Princess Serenity of the Moon, I sentence you to death."
