SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 16 out, this is Chapter 17 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Pairings: Mainly Tieria/Sasha, Allelujah/Marie, Lockon Jr./Anew, Billy/Sumeragi, Patrick/Kati

Standard BS Disclaimers: I do not own Sailor Moon, Gundam 00 or the pairings. If I did, the other Senshi would be as powerful as Sailor Moon and kicking MOTD ass more often and VEDA would have least an anti-hacker program installed. The only thing I do own is the plot.

Chapter 17: Lemures


Some time later...

Even if Nehelenia destroyed, a few of the scattered fragments of her tainted Dream Mirror still remained in Crystal Tokyo. These shards then collated together into a glass replica of Nehelenia. Looking around at its surroundings, it then melted into a molten form and slithered towards the Palace.

Moving into the sleeping chambers of the King and Queen, the liquefied Lemure and last remnants of Nehelenia turned into a black vapor and entered Endymion's mind where it began to put its plan to break up the royal couple into action.

Meanwhile, Endymion was dreaming.


Episode 181 of Sailor Moon Sailor Stars

Endymion found himself as a disembodied figure, witnessing one Kou Seiya and Tsukino Usagi dancing in the night club.

"What about your boyfriend, odango?" a surprised Seiya asked, Usagi was pressing herself against him and grating her hips seductively.

"What Mamoru doesn't know won't hurt him." Usagi purred and pursed her lips for a kiss from the idol.


Episode 184 of Sailor Moon Sailor Stars

With Minako distracting the TV crew at the door, Seiya and Usagi snuck into a cupboard to hide, Chibi Chibi was tucked in Seiya's arms.

Taking advantage of the situation, Usagi lunged at Seiya and giving him/her a kiss.


This time, Endymion found himself on his death bed, his breathing was getting severely labored as he struggled to take another breath.

Just then, Serenity sashayed into the bedroom with Sailor Star Fighter on her arm.

"You should know by now; I didn't marry you because I love you. I married you because it would make me Queen of Earth." the Queen smirked, her eyes glinting. "So please hurry up and die, Endymion, so that I can marry the one I really love."


It's objective attained, the molten Lemure left Endymion's mind and vanished from the royal chambers.

It was at this point that Endymion opened his eyes and looked over at his still slumbering wife.

"Seiya..." Serenity mumbled. "We can't do that here... Endymion's next door..."

A cold jolt struck Endymion in the heart when he heard those words; his wife, his beloved Usako had been unfaithful ever since their last lifetime.


In the Hikawa Shrine...

The Sacred Fire erupted abruptly as Nina picked up an unwanted intruder leaving the Palace and heading in the Shrine's direction.

In her Head Priestess robes, the fire Senshi ran out to confront the incoming enemy. "Akuryo Taisan!" she flung a pair of ofuda at the fleeing Lemure, vanquishing it.
