AN: This is very much an AU story so although I have nearly all SM characters in this story, this is set in an alternate reality rather than what I normally do. Will change to M rating later I think.
Disclaimer - I do not own Sailor Moon or anything from the franchise, I make no profit from this. Sailor Moon is owned by Naoko Takeuchi. I also do not own the image used. However, I do own the storyline and my own OC characters :-)
Act One
A solemn silence fell over the broken silver haired Senshi as she fell backwards atop an asteroid orbiting near the planet Mars. She didn't know how long she had laid there and she didn't really care anymore. She didn't care about anything anymore. Against the backdrop of the starlit universe she travelled in silence, defeated. Her hair had remained in her trademark Odango hairstyle although rather than being round they were heart-shaped. The star symbol that usually glowed a bright golden colour was now merely shimmering against the star lights all around her. Her white cape spread across her back whilst her white staff was placed on her right side, untouched. And loathed
Silence, that all she heard now, silence, her constant unwanted companion. The smashing of asteroids and zipping past of shooting stars did nothing for her except reinforce the fact that she was now alone. It was bitter for her now she had returned to her form as a Sailor Senshi, was she a Sailor Senshi? She didn't know who or what she was anymore, none of it mattered. None of it could bring them back.
She looked towards her staff with half opened eyes. That staff had been the source of her power, the catalyst needed to fuse the powers she had collected from her fallen companions and destroy her greatest enemy, Chaos. She laughed a rueful laugh. She had never thought she would become a Senshi again. Hadn't she been told that once she had become Neo-Queen Serenity then that would be the end of it for her? But fate was a funny thing and the idea of time was always shifting, always diversifying and always changing. Before she knew it, she realised she never had a choice in the matter. Her life had been decided for her and she cursed fate for it.
She had thought her time of fighting was over the moment her daughter Small Lady took the throne. King Endymion had promised that from then on they could focus on themselves and live out their real dreams. The Sailor Senshi, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Mercury had all expected to be able to live normal lives and allow the Sailor Quartet to take over. With the arrival of Helios she had thought her daughter wouldn't have to rule Crystal Tokyo on her own. Everything was finally falling into place, it was perfect.
Too damn perfect Sailor Cosmos thought. When was the last time anything had played out right for her since her reincarnation as Tsukino Usagi. Her relationship with Chiba Mamoru had still been doomed all along no matter how hard they fought against it. It was a relationship that should never have happened her mother had once said and yet it did and for a while, she was happy. No matter what Chaos had thrown at them they had got back up and won time and time again but not this time. This time if Chaos was truly going down then it would take something away from her, something precious. Sailor Cosmos never knew pain until that day when everything she had loved and held dear was taken away from her.
Why was she still breathing? Didn't fate know it hurt so bad to be breathing in and out for the last few millennia? From afar she had watched the planet she had once called home change and redevelop into something completely different, she hardly recognised Earth anymore, everything seemed so, ancient, old. Tokyo resembled something like feudal Japan now. Instead of wearing suits or jeans, people were wearing Kimono's, overcoats or long dresses. She could see it all from afar and it broke her heart. It cemented everything for her and made her feel isolated.
She could see them sometimes, their smiling faces waiting for her, waiting for her soul to join them so that they could all be re-born together. How long had they waited for that moment, instead of preparing for death, she just kept on living and she didn't know why. Hadn't enough time passed her by? She had sealed Chaos away and now it wouldn't be re-born for a very long time, it was too small and insignificant for her to even bother looking at it. Damn chaos, damn it for always following her and causing her misery, for what, the Legendary Silver Crystal? If Chaos had come back to her right now she would hand it over if it meant getting her friends, her love back. They had sacrificed their lives so that she could seal chaos away, so that she could carry on living. Hadn't Endymion always said that even if their bodies became dust that she, Serenity, would probably continue on after them? How painfully true his words had become. The echo of his words had slashed at her heart and continued to slash at her making her hate the possible immortality she had received. There must be a reason for all of this, there had to be?
After the dust had settled and the smoke had cleared, Sailor Cosmos had remembered seeing the bodies of people littered the ground, her friends' bodies, gradually disappearing amongst the stars of the heavens, their heavenly bodies turning into the mini balls of lights that represented their planetary symbols. Her daughter, Small Lady in the arms of Helios, her protector engrained in her mind that her daughter's life had been cut short, too short. Helios's spirit, grieved by the death of such a pure spirit retreated into the Golden Crystal and the object of beauty disappeared leaving Sailor Cosmos all alone amongst the ashes of her friends. What was all this fighting for? What was the reward? Shouldn't there have been a reward for all of this? All this fighting, all her damned life and yet she had nothing, nothing for all the hard won battles, all the sacrifices!
Who were the new guardians of Earth now? Did Earth have any protectors? She saw lights, bright lights encircling the planet. She didn't know what they were but these lights seemed divine, beyond anything she had ever seen. She closed her eyes, what did she care? These lights had nothing to do with her and she wanted nothing to do with them. She had seen enough battles in her life time and she was tired of it all, too tired.
She had thought about going to find out about the Sailor Starlight's but she knew the answer to her own questions, they were probably all dead too. She could feel their star seeds, all of their star seeds as if they were hovering around her. None of her friends spirits were prepared to leave her, they would simply wait for her no matter what realm their spirits were in, they wouldn't abandon her to complete oblivion.
But it was painful, seeing their images, speaking with their spirits. It hurt so much that there were times she thought she would die simply from crying too much, but death never came, not even close. So she travelled to different Galaxies and watched the growth of new planets. It was all miraculous to her, a miracle of life. She prayed they would all find happiness and achieve their dreams for that's all she had ever truly wanted out of life. She didn't care about riches, power or immortality; all she cared about was just being happy with her friends and laying her soul to rest with her true kindred spirit, Endymion.
A tear escaped the corner of her left eye. Her lips trembled. Every time she thought about him this feeling of overwhelming grief would capture her and rip her apart until there was nothing but an empty shell left. When did her life turn so sad, so miserable, and so unbearable? She couldn't do it anymore, she couldn't do life, live life without them and yet she was damn well still alive, still breathing while her friends, her Mamo-chan had long ago lost their lives. It was so unfair, so cruel.
'Ah, what is this? What is this feeling? This feeling erupting inside me and making me feel again, the Silver Crystal?' Why was it humming against her chest forcing her to get up?
"Now is not the time to wallow dear one, now is the time to go, go back" a sweet kind voice played in Sailor Cosmos ear.
"Who are you? Are you the Legendary Silver Crystal? Speaking to me?" Sailor Cosmos asked, her voice echoing against the silence of the Universe.
"Yes, I am holding you together because you have one more mission to accomplish, and then you will rest" the voice said.
"Why have you kept me alive? Why!" Sailor Cosmos screamed out in anger, in frustration. The Silver Crystal was the reason her soul had not moved on, why she was still here all alone.
"I must be passed on to a new holder, a new Queen of the Moon born of another Moon Queen. You must live until that time comes to pass" the voice said kindly.
"But Small Lady was the future Queen of the Moon!" Sailor Cosmos spat out bitterly as an image of her dead daughter passed her mind. Oh her heart couldn't bare these thoughts; she was fine just lying there in silence.
"Your daughter's death was unforeseen but still, it came to be. Her soul will be reborn along with yours dear one but a new Queen must be born from you, go, go to earth and finish your mission, then your soul will rest….." the silver crystal engulfed Sailor Cosmos in a soft light cutting off any more words of protest. Engulfing her into a ball of soft, warm pink light, Sailor Cosmos was lifted off the asteroid easily and sent hurtling towards the planet she had once called home, the planet Earth.
How long had he been riding like this, silent? His companion, his best friend had respected his need for space and had kept quiet throughout their journey to nowhere in particular. The endless open space of rolling fields with rice paddies being taken care of seemed to be the typical scene he was used to seeing now, not the luxury he was used to. His black horse continued its gentle canter ahead of his silver haired friend. These people knew nothing, they didn't know the battles he had seen, had witnessed throughout his travels. The current ruler of their land was an arrogant man who cared nothing for justice which is why he had decided to leave his position as royal advisor and protector to the King, he was now nothing more than a glorified Ronin, master less regardless of his royal heritage. His companion had readily left with him that fateful day renouncing his own privileged as Chief Commander to the King's army and he too became a Ronin.
"Endymion, should we really stop by the district of Luna? You know the troubles there, not even the King wishes to go there" the silver haired man said placing his cold blue eyes on the man he viewed as his leader.
"The King is selfish Kunzite, my half-brother rarely goes anywhere unless it's filled with riches and gaiety" Endymion said as he looked about his surroundings.
"But the district of Luna is run by the War Lord Jiro, he has the whole place under his control, its filled with nothing but poverty and violence" Kunzite said as he made his white horse walk side by side Endymion's. Endymion was a sight to behold as he had gotten older and matured. His midnight black hair had grown just past his shoulders and was slightly messy at the top, some of his bangs hung over his piercing blue eyes and he had a navy coloured head band. He wore a long navy overcoat with criss-cross stitching on the hem. He wore black pants with black boots, a long pale blue over shirt with a deep V-neck and a silver beaded necklace. Endymion had grown into a well-built frame honed in from his training with Kunzite. His long sword was sheathed and on his right side.
"We are not there to sort their problems out, we just need a place to rest before continuing our travels, who knows, you might enjoy the violence…." Endymion said as a smirk erupted on his face. Kunzite huffed and then galloped ahead.
"Ah Kunzite, don't get all emotional on me" Endymion called out through his own chuckling.
"I'll give you emotional in a minute when I ram my sword up your….." Endymion was beside Kunzite stopping Kunzite from finishing his words by looking at him curiously.
"What was that?" Endymion asked mischievously, he had heard what Kunzite was muttering. Kunzite sweat dropped but maintained the façade of the cold commander.
"Nothing my Lord" Kunzite said.
"Hn" Endymion shrugged his shoulders and then sped ahead.
"I would like to see you try and erm, ram your sword where you intended too, the challenge is most exciting, you know I relish a challenge" Endymion said laughing as Kunzite sweat dropped some more. Honestly, what the hell was he doing travelling with this devil anyway!
Already arriving on the borders of the District of Luna was a stoic beauty with long black hair and violet eyes. Her bow was attached to her back as she wore the uniform that indicated she was a Miko. Huffing and puffing from her travels she ignored the young blonde haired man that had stood ahead of her. He was dressed in a simple grey long sleeved top that stopped by his knees and black pants with brown knee length boots. His own blue eyes scanned the entrance to the district of Luna. It was surrounded by tall walls and one large brown gated door that were still opened. The guards of course at the top were drunk.
"Are you sure about this Jadeite?" the black haired woman asked. Jadeite turned round and looked at the woman calmly.
"Yes Rei I am sure, this place is the only place without any spiritual guidance, this must surely anger the gods who protect us all, we must see this war lord and recommend ourselves for the task" Jadeite said solemnly. Rei stood a little taller and then stood next to him. The smell of smoke and blood made her want to throw up. She could well imagine the once beautiful land was now nothing more than a mere husk of its former glory. The poverty of this place was well known and the citizens were too frightened to escape.
"He could say no and kill us" Rei said as they started to walk through the gates.
"Everyone, no matter how evil, knows the importance of spirituality, he will not turn us away" Jadeite said trying to mask the shock on his face. A child was scavenging for food amongst the filth and rubbish that seemed to permeate the land.
"And what makes you think he will not turn us away?" Rei asked looking at the many scantily dressed women trying to get Jadeite's attention.
"Because we're the only Priest and Priestess that will come to this forsaken place" Jadeite said as they approached the lavish home of the war lord. There were still blossoms blooming but the colours were dying, the grass was more of a dull green rather than the lush green it should have been. A man with long silver hair and bronze coloured eyes stood there dressed in burgundy and black.
"What is your business here?" he asked. Rei knew he must have been from the Emblem Tribe, a tribe of people who were fire worshippers.
"We are here to see Lord Jiro, we are spiritual healers" Jadeite said confidently. The man raised an eyebrow and smirked.
"Hmm, I don't think any soul can be saved here but you're welcome to try" Jadeite looked at the man questioningly, this man obviously wasn't too happy about the situation he was in and yet he followed this tyrant lord.
"Follow me, I'll lead you to him" the silver haired man said. His hair was tied into a tight bun accentuating his narrow hansome features. Rei had a bad feeling about this place.
A woman was busy cooking inside the grand home of Lord Jiro. Her wavy brown hair was tied up with some covering her face as she kneaded the dough. Pots were filled with soup being cooked. The smell was tantalising as a man with long reddish brown hair came in, his brown eyes looking at the woman cooking away.
"Hmm Makoto, I think I might need to try some of that soup even before the Lord Jiro" he said as he let out a dark chuckle.
"Now Nephrite, you know it's the royal taster that gets to try it first" Makoto said as she turned around and smiled at Nephrite.
"Lucky man" he muttered as he walked inside the kitchen. He then walked behind Makoto and wrapped his arms around her waist. He then wiped away the little bit of flour that was on her right cheek and then placed a kiss on the same spot.
"After you're done maybe we could go out" Nephrite whispered into her ear. Makoto rested a little more into his chest and closed her eyes.
"Hmmm that would be nice" Makoto said smiling. Nephrite wore a long dark red overcoat and a light brown shirt and dark brown pants. Makoto had a simple light green Kimono on with dark green obi.
"I've just heard news that we have a Priest and Priestess here looking to work" Nephrite said. Mokoto turned around and looked at Nephrite.
"Is that wise for them? This place isn't safe, the King doesn't care about our district" Makoto said in a said voice. Nephrite hated hearing her sounding so sad.
"Let's not think about that selfish bastard, let's think about us, now that's a happy thought right?" Nephrite said making Makoto smile at him more brightly.
"Do you think we'll find a better leader, a kind one, I would really like that for the district of Luna" Makoto asked.
"It would be nice, I think the people would like that as well, they will rise up for a worthy leader and then we could transform this place back to the way it used to be, a place that rivalled the home of the King" Nephrite said through a sigh.
"Sorry Ami, another document for you to look over and sign for Jiro the terrible" a man with wavy blonde hair tied into a lose ponytail came in waving a piece of paper with a 'I am so sorry' look on his face. His green eyes looked on at the blue haired nymph he had a crush on. Ami sat down dressed in a light blue Kimono with glasses looking at the pile of papers she had just been through. Her place of work within the home of the Lord Jiro was wall lined with books, documents and more books. Placing a hand through her short locks of blue hair she sighed in frustration but looked kindly towards the man.
"Thank you Zoisite, I know you hate being the bearer of bad news" Ami said. Zoisite nodded and then handed her the pair of paper. Zoisite was dressed in a dark green overcoat and a long light green shirt with brown beads, brown pants and brown boots.
"How did we get here Zoisite, we used to work for the King" Ami asked. Zoisite sighed.
"We left when Prince Endymion left, he was the one we truly wished to serve but Endymion has no right to the throne. Coming here might have been a miscalculation huh" Zoisite said as he quirked an eyebrow.
"Well, Jiro wouldn't let us leave would he, we had no choice in the end" Ami said as she looked at the document, it was another execution notice.
"They want to execute someone from the Sora Tribe, are they crazy? This could cause war" Ami asked looking at Zoisite said incredulously.
"I am sure he is aware, he has always wanted a war to force the King to come and visit and make erm, demands" Zoisite said as he walked towards the window and out towards the Outer Courtyard.
Ami then got up from her desk and walked towards Zoisite and then stood next to him. Zoisite restrained a blush at the closeness of the woman he was in love with. He could never tell her the truth, he feared ruining their friendship.
"Tell me, will there come a time when we'll get a kind ruler here? A ruler who only wants justice and peace" Ami asked more to herself. Zoisite looked down at Ami and then closed his eyes. He didn't need to answer, their thoughts were one and the same on the matter.
A blonde woman stood alone watching the tall broad figure of a man with shoulder length blonde hair and deep cold blue eyes sat down on a red throne. The room had six soldiers, three on each side in a straight line holding up their swords. The blonde woman was dressed in an orange Kimono with a yellow obi. Her hair was partially held by a red bow and her blue eyes looked dull. She was tired, really tired but she was a maid, a maid had her duties to take care of. At least the Lord Jiro hadn't turned his lustful attentions towards her yet but it was only a matter of time, she was beautiful and kind hearted.
"Minako….come with me" an elderly lady appeared next to the blonde woman. Minako was grateful to be able to leave the room as Lord Jiro started speaking to the silver haired soldier that had greeted the Priest and Miko. Minako had thought the Miko, the new priestess of this place was beautiful. She felt sorry for them, they had no idea what they were letting themselves in for.
"Ah Min, where are we going?" Minako asked the elderly lady.
"Shut up, I just saved you, Jiro looked stressed and you know what happens when he is stressed" Min said as she walked down the hallway and out towards the gardens. Minako knew exactly what happens when Jiro was angry or stressed, he would take the nearest woman to him and force himself on them, raping them. Minako was the closest female to Jiro in that room. Jiro was an attractive man but he was cruel and evil and that showed in the way he sometimes would treat women, especially in intimate settings. Minako sighed in relief grateful for the smart cunning Min. But as they kept walking Minako started to feel there was something more. Min was still pulling Minako away with her towards the back gardens.
"What are we doing here?" Minako asked in a worried tone. Min didn't respond as she undid a hatch that led out towards the back and onto the village. Minako looked back and hoped no-one was following. Min then proceeded to rush past many shops that were still open. Hog roasts were being cooked and rice was being eaten yet there were still children going hungry on the streets, why did no-one care? They then took a sharp left down a dark alleyway until they reached a small door. Min took out an old rusty key and opened the door in the wall, a warm glow greeted Minako as they both went inside. Only the burning of the candles lit the room. It was a small room with a little desk, a coach with many pillows and there was a side door that led off to a bedroom.
"This is my friends place, I come here sometimes when she is away travelling though this time round I don't think she's coming back" Min said as Minako sat down.
"I have someone I want you to meet" Min said seriously. Minako at first was taken aback before a mischievous glint lit her eyes
"So finally the old crow has caught herself a man, is he submissive like you always wanted?" Minako teased. Min went red for only a split second before opening the only other door in the room. A woman came out with an odd hairstyle. It was in two buns on her head with the ends of hair coming down past her waist. Her bright blue eyes were a beautiful contrast to her golden blonde hair. She was dressed in a pastel pink Kimono with a dark pink obi. There was something about her that attracted Minako to her but she didn't know why. She was even more confused when the woman looked at Minako like she had seen a ghost.
"Who is she Min?" Minako asked captivated by the woman's eyes.
"Her name is Usagi, she doesn't know how she got here and she doesn't seem to have any family but I think she will save this place" Minako tore her gaze away from Usagi and then looked at Min.
"What do you mean?" Minako asked.
"Well, I knew it the moment I saw her outside the gates to this place, she was special. She was just lying there on the ground with some sort of light surrounding her. Her outfit was something I had never seen before and then poof, it disappeared and she was naked! Well I couldn't leave the poor thing there so I quickly bought a Kimono from the nearest shop and dressed her. But that light, I have never seen anything like it. I think she is a gift from the gods to the district of Luna, she will save us!" Min announced shocking Mianko and Usagi at the same time.
This was not how Usagi had expected the day to go. It had started off bad when the Silver Crystal had dropped her on the cold ground without so much as a warning. She had remained asleep for hours too tired to get up. She was so cold. She had realised she was back on Earth but things felt different. She couldn't feel her friends' spirits near her anymore which had been a shock to the system. They had left her. She then heard a gasp and then the scuffling of feet. Great, this woman must have seen her as Sailor Cosmos. Fifteen minutes later the same gasp was heard again followed by the smooth feel of cotton on her skin, wait, she was naked! Damn the Silver Crystal! She had then got up to see a short elderly woman with grey hair and sharp blue eyes.
"My name is Min dear one, come with me Saviour of Luna, I will take you somewhere where you will be safe" Min had said forcing her to get up.
"What is your name?" Min had asked.
"Usagi" she said, no, was it her who said that or was it the Silver Crystal that had moved her to say it? What was the Silver Crystal's game here? After about ten minutes of walking Usagi had seen some terrible sights, poor children, prostitutes and violence all in one go. It was heart breaking.
And here she was now feeling like someone had literally ripped her heart apart. Venus was here, right here in front of her but, there was something different, the aura of Venus wasn't there, not the power anyway. Where the hell was she?
"So erm, my name is Aino Minako, I am a maid in the court of Lord Jiro, the ruler of the District of Luna" Minako said watching as Usagi gasped.
"What is it?" Minako asked curiously. Usagi shook her head.
"Nothing, I thought…. I just had a memory, you remind me of someone I had once cared about, a dear friend" Usagi said trying her best to hold back her tears. Minako felt touched and was moved so much that she hugged Usagi.
"Hey, maybe we could be friends now" Minako said before winking at Usagi. Usagi smiled, this woman had no idea how much that little gesture hurt Usagi.
"I warned you this place was filthy" Kunzite had said as he tied up both their horses. Endymion had acquired rooms for the night and possibly for the week. Endymion nodded as he tried to ignore the poverty that was all around him.
"Just ignore it Kunzite, it's not like we're staying here forever" Endymion said in a bored voice. A beautiful buxom female with long brown hair tried to coax Endymion to her side. He smirked as she grabbed his arm and rubbed herself up his right arm. Kunzite looked away embarrassed.
"Now I know a good looking man like yourself don't come from around these parts" she said smoothly. Endymion then came close towards her face, his nose almost touching hers.
"Hmmm, you are right my little whore, now why don't you stop molesting my arm and find another fool who will fall for your erm….charms" Endymion said coldly before he brushed her off him.
"How rude!" she huffed before walking away.
"Honestly, there was no need to be that ruff, she is trying to make a…..never mind!" Kunzite said and then changed subject as he saw more women and this time they were looking his way.
"If you want to go and play then, be my guest although pace yourself" Endymion smirked. Kunzite went red and then went into his room slamming the doors in front of Endymion's face. Kunzite was clearly cursing him inside. Endymion laughed a little as he opened the door to their rooms. They had booked simple lodgings which was all they needed. Endymion needed time to think about their next move. Kunzite fell on his bed and huffed as he narrowed his eyes at his friend. Endymion had found a chair by a window and looked on outside, he was trying hard not to laugh and agitate Kunzite further. He didn't want to stay in the Luna district that was for sure, the place was clearly damned.
"I'm surprised your brother hasn't sent anyone after you yet" Kunzite said as he pressed a pillow against his face. Endymion quirked an eyebrow and then sighed.
"Oh, and why would he send anyone after me?" Endymion asked already knowing the answer.
"Well, aside from walking away from you royal responsibilities which I might add is bad enough, you also threatened to drive a sword through his chest and happily watch him bleed to death, If I was the ruler I would've had you hung, drawn and quartered by now or at least make you hang from a tree using only your tongue for support" Kunzite said as he removed the pillow from his face.
"And what makes you think he hasn't had someone follow us here? Also, you have a very dark and twisted mind" Endymion said as he chuckled softly. Kunzite also laughed. Kunzite then got up and stood by his master looking out the window.
"This Lord Jiro is foolish, this could be such a prosperous land again, it is the only district that could rival our Kings" Kunzite said whilst Endymion nodded.
"He wants power, that's all people like Jiro crave, he won't tend to the people he has enslaved. The only time he would give them his attention is when he is brutalising them" Endymion said in an angry voice. Kunzite nodded and then something or at least someone caught his attention. He watched two blonde women walking behind an old woman towards a home that had the lights switched on downstairs, Endymion of course also noticed.
"Hmmm, I think things are about to get very interesting around here" Endymion said mysteriously as he looked at the Odango beauty. Kunzite looked at his master and then back at the blonde woman with the bow in her hair, his master was right; things were looking more and more interesting now.
Lord Jiro had woken up in bed with two women either side of him naked and sleeping. The curtains were drawn but there was still some sunshine seeping through. Grunting he forced himself up and looked at the brunette next to him, he had no idea who she was or what her name was, probably a maid. Settled with that thought he moved his body over the other brunette woman and got out of bed, naked. He was a man with a lean build and muscles. He saw his pipe and then lit it so he could smoke. The smoke whirled all around him leaving a slight nutty smell in the air. Taking a thin blue cloth he wrapped around his waist just in time before another maid with reddish hair walked in, she tried to avert her eyes but Jiro had seen, her eyes held fear in them, good, she should fear him.
"I am sorry Lord Jiro-Sama, I was told to call you into a meeting, Ms Mizuno Ami has signed the papers" she said in a small mousy voice. Jiro looked coldly at her and signalled for her to leave. She looked at the two females on the bed; one of them had woken up and was looking back at the maid with a frightened look in her eyes. The maid felt sorry for her and then quickly made her escape. Lord Jiro then sat on the bed besides the brunette that had woken up. He rubbed his thumb against her shoulder and then began to dig in making her whimper. He smiled wickedly as he forced her out of his bed. She was a slight thing and for the life of him he didn't know what attracted him to her. The other one was probably the same. She was shivering as she was now sat on her knees naked.
"Get out" was all Lord Jiro said before flinging a flimsy nightgown towards her. She bowed giving her thanks and then ran out.
"You too" Lord Jiro said holding out another nightgown which was quickly grabbed. Once they were gone Lord Jiro got up and sighed. He had his very own district albeit taken forcefully but he craved more. He wanted the Kings throne as he believed the King was not fit to rule, what did that pathetic King know of war, of hard work? No, Jiro would force the King to meet him in battle, not many would support the King, even if forced to. Lord Jiro then looked at his empty bed; he felt lonely again and shook his head to make the thoughts disappear. He would look for a wife soon; it was time he got married and sires a son to carry on his work after him.
Hi guys,
I am back with some new stories! I needed a little break and to a degree I am still on a break but I felt now was the time I could start putting out new stories. I am doing a set of AU based stories with one of them pairing Usagi with my own OC character. I will put them up gradually but I thought just to warn you guys that my new stories are a step away from what I have released. If you like Usagi based in alternate universes then hopefully the stories I have coming out will be ok. I also have a one-shot coming out that is a crossover with Yona of the Dawn- its nearly finished currently at 7,000 words. I have read a lot of crossovers and some AU's and they have inspired to think of my own so I know its a risk but I want to give it a try and see how it turns out.
I have decided to keep the Senshi's civilian names and the Shitennou's general names to avoid any confusion. Also I have kept their pairings. I have based this story after Sailor Chaos which occurs in the distant future as described in the manga. I have made Usagi Sailor Cosmos as I personally think she may become Sailor Cosmos just due to the things Sailor Cosmos says in the manga however, it is never explicitly said in the manga and who Sailor Cosmos actually is I think is very much debated, for the sake of this story Usagi became Sailor Cosmos.
I will update this story soon, hopefully you guys like it. Reviews are always appreciated :-)
AN: update
Jakeros: I am glad you like it so far but I might disappoint here, the girls won't turn into Sailor Senshi in this AU but in the others they will do, especially in the one filled with OC's. The girls all do feel attached to Usagi in this which comes from the dormant Senshi side and this causes them to act in Usagi's interest later in the story. The Outer Senshi will come later in the story too. Sorry if this wasn't what you were hoping for, this story is very much different to the others as I wanted to try out the other stories I had in mind.
