SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 18 out, this is Chapter 19 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 19: Betrayal

Upon the revelation that his wife had been unfaithful to him in his previous lifetime, Endymion held back his desire to divorce Serenity immediately; instead he had moved out of the couple's martial bed and had been sleeping in his office for the past few weeks.

Still unaware that Endymion had gotten wind of her infidelity, Serenity just went on life per usual. And still fantasizing about Seiya Kou and wanting him despite her being a married woman, the Queen started using the Palace computer's link with VEDA to locate Planet Kinmoku in hopes for finding the Starlight Senshi.

Meanwhile...

"Kinmoku?" Sasha echoed when Nena informed her about the Queen's search. "The Sailor Starlights' planet? But, it was destroyed by Chaos Galaxia."

"They should've rebuilt by now." Tieria pointed out.

"You've got a point there." Sasha nodded. "But, it's been so long. Why would Serenity want..." her eyes widened in realization. "She couldn't have..."

"Sasha-sama?" Nena blinked.

"That... that whore!' Sasha snapped angrily. "Does she intend to rekindle her affair with Star Fighter, even though she's a married woman?"

"What?" both Nena and Tieria were shocked by the startling disclosure.

"It would seem that Endymion already knew about the Queen's infidelity." Johann cut in. "From the reports from our people in the Palace, the King and Queen have been sleeping apart for weeks."

"Then, Endymion suspects, but he has no solid proof to validate a divorce." Sasha reasoned.

"What are your orders, princess?" Johann inquired.

"The King is the innocent party in this." Sasha decided. "Johann, have our informants find evidence of the Queen's affair and consolidate them before presenting it to the King. This way, we will have indisputable proof that the Queen has not intentions of staying faithful to her martial vows. While the scandal that will result from the fallout will irrevocably tarnish Serenity's reputation, this way Endymion's honor will remain intact."

"At once, princess." Johann replied and pulled out his communicator.

About three months later...

"In the face of the presented evidence, it is this martial courts' final decision that the marriage between King Endymion and Queen Serenity is officially annulled at of this moment." the judge declared. "Court adjourned."

"Endymion, you can't do this to me!" the former Queen wailed piteously, trying to get back to her ex-husband's good graces. She could no believe that her dreams of being Queen of Earth had been dashed once her intentions of cheating with Seiya behind her husband's back was discovered. "I'm sorry!"

"No, Serenity." Endymion gave his ex-wife a stony look. "You're only sorry because you got caught. Go folic with Star Fighter, now that we're no longer married."

"You..." Serenity turned her ire at Sasha, the person she was certain spearheaded the entire investigation. "You are my Senshi, Mercury! How could you betray me like this?"

"Then, tell me, Serenity." Sasha started. "Did you ever love Endymion? Or are you just upset that you got caught and were thrown out?"

"Of course I love Endymion." Serenity barked.

"More than Seiya?" Sasha fired back. "Will you give up Star Fighter for a second chance?"

Serenity gulped and looked down at the stone floor.

"As it is, you've made your choice." Sasha shook her head. "You've made your bed, lay in it. All you want is the security of a marriage and the thrill of a lover. You can't have both; life just don't work that way."
