Doom
Part Ten: Triumph

Lord Sardonyx sat in his lair planning his next move. All of the Chibi Scouts were emotionally crippled now. He can now work on destroying them. Once the Chibi Scouts were out of the way Lord Sardonyx could take over the world.
"My Lord," his aide Jewel came forward. "May I ask what was the purpose of emotionally crippling the Sailor Chibi Scouts?"
"With their emotions being what they are now they will be in no position to fight," Sardonyx explained. "I can destroy them easier now. Once they are destroyed their parents will be so full of grief that they will be easily defeated. Then this world will be mine."
"I see," Jewel said. "And how did you come up with the idea of emotionally crippling the Chibi Scouts?"
"When I had Jade try and take over the world the first time one Chibi Scout stood in her way, Sailor Chibi Mars," Sardonyx explained. "I realized how greatly I underestimated the Chibi Scouts. When I saw how emotionally traumatized Chibi Mars was after she defeated Jade I decided to emotionally cripple all of the Chibi Scouts. That way taking over the world would be easier."
"Brilliant plan as always my Lord," Jewel bowed to him.
"Papa," another voice spoke up. Sardonyx turned to see his little girl Sard coming in.
"What is it my princess," he asked.
"When are you going to be done with your latest mission," Sard asked.
"As soon as I eliminate all those who stand in our way," Sardonyx replied. "Once I take over the world, you will become queen. How would you like that Sard?"
"I would love it Papa," Sard said with a gleam in her eye.
"Then give me time my dear child," Sardonyx placed his hand on the child's head. "Once the Chibi Scouts are out of the way we will be one step closer to ruling the world."
"I cannot wait Papa," Sard replied.
Amy was exhausted. She had sessions with Hope, Maggie and Daisy this afternoon. They were all showing progress but they were still very traumatized. On top of all that two of the palace officials were sick so she had to examine them today as well. Ariel was doing well today for which Amy was grateful but she still had to keep up with the child. She had put Ariel to bed about an hour ago but she knew it was only a matter of time before she woke up from her nightmares.
Her communicator beeped and she reached down and activated it. Serenity's face appeared on it. "Amy," she said. "We are going to have a Scout meeting tomorrow while the girls are in school. We want to try and track down this enemy who was behind what happened to the girls."
"You better believe I will be there," Amy grimly replied. Normally very gentle Amy was very angry at what had happened to her child. The others were angry as well. All of them had one thing in mind; destroy the person who was behind all of this.
"Don't worry Amy," Serenity's comforting voice assured her. "We'll get to the bottom of this. I will see you in the morning."
As soon as Amy signed off a scream came from Ariel's bedroom. She immediately jumped up and ran toward the room. This had become normal.
"We must think of some way to track down this enemy," Serenity said at the meeting the next day. All of the Scouts were present.
"Wait until I get a hold of him," Lita gritted her teeth in rage. "I will make him pay for what he did to my child."
"You and me both," growled Raye. "I think once we get rid of this person Annika will sleep better at night."
"Once I get a hold of him I will make regret the day he ever heard of the Chibi Scouts," Haruka said fiercely.
"There is nothing we can do," Setsuna interjected.
"What do you mean Setsuna Mama," cried Hotaru. "We have to do something."
"This is a battle the girls must fight alone," Setsuna explained. "It is the only way they will be completely healed."
"They are in no position to fight," protested Mina. "I don't know about the rest of you but my daughter certainly has not been herself since her ordeal."
"None of the children have," Setsuna replied. "But if the girls are ever going to be completely healed then they have to be the ones to destroy the source."
"I am forced to agree," Amy said. "All of the girls have anger toward this but they have not allowed it to surface yet. If this is the way they can heal then we must let them fight this one themselves."
"And just how are we going to convince them of that," demanded Michiru. "The twins cannot even think of fighting right now."
"That is a good question Amy," Serenity pointed out. "Rini has no interest in being a Scout right now."
"I will schedule a group session with the girls this afternoon," Amy decided out loud. "I will try and convince them that it is the only way they can heal."
"So what should we do," asked Raye.
"Just bring your child to me after school," Amy replied.
"Very well," sighed Lita. "But this had better be the right thing to do."
"It is," assured Setsuna. Everyone reluctantly agreed to the appointment.
"What do you mean I have to go to a group session," shouted Gloria. "I thought I had the afternoon off from all these therapies."
"I'm sorry Darling but you need to go to this," Mina patiently explained.
"Well I am not going," snapped Gloria rudely as she sat down.
Mina quietly counted to ten. "You have to go and there will be no argument," she sternly stated. "I will drag you there if I have to but you are going and that is the final word."
Gloria sighed and clamped her mouth shut. She knew it was no use arguing with her mother. She never won.
"Mama," whined Annika. "Why do I have to go to this?"
"Aunt Amy has something very important to talk to all of you about," Raye explained.
Annika sighed. She and Raye were on their way to see Amy. When Annika came home from school her mother had sprung the news that there was to be a group session this afternoon. Annika did not want to go. She had a rough day at school and all she wanted was to snuggle up with her mother right now.
Raye knelt down and put her hands on Annika's shoulders. "I know all of this has been rough on you Sweetheart," she gently said. "But hopefully all of this will blow over soon and we can get back to our normal lives." Raye wished she could magically make all of this disappear. Annika had always been sensitive but in the last few weeks she had become emotionally unstable. When she got onto one of her crying jags only Raye or Amy could calm her down. Several times Raye had to go to the school to calm the child down.
Annika just flung her arms around her mother and did not say a word. She had a feeling something big was going to happen soon.
"Why are we here," asked Daisy as she sat down in one of the chairs Amy had put out for them.
"I decided we need to have a group session," Amy explained. She was sitting in one of the chairs with Ariel in her lap.
"Why do we need to have one of those," asked Maggie as she twirled a lock of her hair.
"The Scouts and the Queen had a meeting this morning," Amy replied. "We wanted to try and find the person who is behind all of this."
"And then you take care of him," Ariel eagerly piped up.
"I'm afraid not Darling," Amy told her. "We realized the only way you girls can be completely healed is for you to find this person and beat him yourself."
"No," howled Madelyn.
"Absolutely not," demanded Rini. "How could all of you even think of such a thing?"
"Don't all of you love us," wailed Hope.
"We are doing this because we love you," Amy explained. "All of you have buried anger over this which none of you have allowed to surface. We believe that if you confront your demons then you will be healed."
"But it's all so scary," whined Annika.
Amy reached over and took Annika's hand. She squeezed it gently. "I know it's scary," she gently said. "But believe in yourselves and each other and you will succeed." With that Amy gave Ariel a hug and a kiss and left the room so the girls could talk.
"She's probably right," Maggie softly whispered.
"She's always right," grumbled Gloria.
"What she said made sense," Rini sighed as she stood up. "All of you are still young but I understood where our parents are coming from. If we are to be healed we need to fight this monster on our own."
"Then let's do it," declared Daisy standing up.
"I'm with you," agreed Rini. She looked at the others. "What about the rest of you?"
Gloria thought hard for a moment and then nodded her head. Maggie stood up and went over to them. She did not need to say anything. Rini knew she was in.
"Okay," whispered Ariel and Madelyn agreed.
"Count me in too," added Annika.
"I'll do it," said Hope. She turned to her sister. "What about you Faith?"
Faith had not said a word since she came in. Her ordeal was the most recent therefore she was the one hurting the most right now. Hope took her hand. "We can do it," she reassured her. Faith nodded her head in agreement.
"Then it's settled," Rini said. "Annika the first step is in your hands."
Annika knelt down in front of the fire. The rest of the girls were behind her watching. Annika began to concentrate on what she wanted to find out. She began chanting, "Rin, Hyou, Tou, Sha, Kai, Chin, Zai, Zen!" The flames flared up and an image of a man appeared. "That's him," Annika cried out.
"Who is he," asked Rini. "Where can we find him?"
Annika concentrated harder. "His name is Lord Sardonyx," she whispered. "He set up his base in the woods. There is a cave there. That is where he is."
"Then let's go and find him," Rini declared and everyone nodded their heads.
The girls headed toward the woods. All of them were a bit nervous but they were all determined to put an end to this.
"Girls," said Rini. "We are going to win this. All of you are great scouts and I am proud to be your leader."
"And we are honored to be on the team," Maggie replied and everyone nodded in agreement.
"Then let's go," declared Rini holding up her broach.
"Right," yelled everyone as they held up their transformation pens.
"MOON COSMIC POWER MAKE UP!"
"MERCURY POWER MAKE UP!"
"MARS POWER MAKE UP!"
"JUPITER POWER MAKE UP!"
"VENUS POWER MAKE UP!"
"PLUTO POWER MAKE UP!"
"NEPTUNE POWER MAKE UP!"
"URANUS POWER MAKE UP!"
"SATURN POWER MAKE UP!"
Bright lights of different transformations surrounded each girl. Scout uniforms replaced everyday clothes. Each girl ended her transformations in different poses.
"Are we ready Sailors," called Cosmic Moon.
"We are ready," shouted the Chibi Scouts and everyone headed toward the base.
In his lair Lord Sardonyx activated his sphere. He saw the young Sailor Scouts heading toward his base. "Well, well," he laughed. "It looks like there has been a change of plans. They want to come and fight. Well I will just have to bring them into the battle." Lord Sardonyx held up his sphere and activated it. He disappeared.
"Have you tracked him yet Chibi Mercury," asked Cosmic Moon.
"Not yet," Chibi Mercury replied as she scanned the area with her visor and computer. "But I am picking up an unusual energy source."
"What kind of source," asked Chibi Pluto.
"I am not certain," Chibi Mercury replied. "I am trying to figure it out."
Chibi Mars gave a loud gasp, "I sense an evil aura coming right toward us."
Before anyone had a chance to do anything a large beam of energy came down on top of the Chibi Scouts. They all screamed in pain and vanished.
Lord Sardonyx watched as an opening appeared in the sky. The Sailor Cosmic Moon and the Chibi Scouts fell out of the hole and landed in a heap on the ground.
"Welcome Sailor Cosmic Moon and the Sailor Chibi Scouts," Sardonyx greeted.
"Who are you," demanded Cosmic Moon as she pulled herself up. Chibi Pluto helped Chibi Saturn to her feet.
"I am Lord Sardonyx," he replied. "I am the one you seek."
"So it was you who was behind all of this," screamed Chibi Venus. She powered up, "VENUS BEAUTIFUL SHOCKWAVE!" The giant heart flew out, exploded and sent out a vibrating shock wave. Lord Sardonyx only laughed and absorbed the attack.
"Your little attacks are nothing," he laughed. "You might as well surrender. I am going to destroy you."
"That's what you think," shouted Chibi Uranus and she powered up, "EARTHQUAKE TREMORS!" Lord Sardonyx was not ready for this attack and he fell down.
"How dare you," he shouted. "I am more powerful than any of you." He held up his sphere. Energy shot out from it and blasted Chibi Neptune and Chibi Uranus. They were sent sprawling. Chibi Pluto and Chibi Jupiter were next. He then took out Chibi Mars and Chibi Venus. Finally he got Chibi Mercury and Chibi Saturn. All of them were sent sprawling and lay in a heap on the ground.
"Why you," shouted Cosmic Moon and she ran toward him holding up her scepter. Lord Sardonyx only laughed and held up his sphere. Cosmic Moon was levitated toward him.
"Now I have got the leader and the future queen," he sneered. "When I finish with you I can take over the world. I promised my daughter she would be queen."
"That will never happen," shouted Cosmic Moon. "I will destroy you first."
Lord Sardonyx laughed harder. "Let's see you try." His sphere glowed and Cosmic Moon screamed in pain. "That's right Princess," he said. "You writhe here in pain until you die. Then I will get her friends."
Chibi Mars came around. She groggily sat up and saw what was happening. She remembered her battle with Jade, finding everyone unconscience, the injuries she received and the difficult ordeal she had been through these last several weeks. Her anger grew.
Chibi Venus pulled herself up and saw what was happening. She remembered being placed in an alternate reality where Annika was dead, Raye was missing, Daisy was in a coma and Mina was in a mental institution because of her. She remembered the pain she felt and her anger grew.
Chibi Mercury weakly sat up and saw what was happening. She remembered seeing the dead bodies of her friends. She remembered them becoming zombies and blaming her for their deaths. She remembered the terror she felt and her anger grew.
Chibi Jupiter pulled herself to her knees and saw what was happening to Cosmic Moon. She remembered being led to believe that her attacks killed innocent people. She recalled how physically sick she made herself after the ordeal. Her anger grew.
Chibi Pluto rolled over and saw what was happening. She remembered the wasteland she saw. She remembered seeing the dead bodies of the queen and her mother. She remembered the terror and anguish she felt. Her anger grew.
Chibi Saturn looked up and saw what Sardonyx was doing to Cosmic Moon. She remembered being placed in a maze. She remembered all of the youmas she had to fight and how she almost became dinner to two giant spiders. She recalled the fear she had to opening doors after that. Her anger grew.
Chibi Neptune sat up. She watched what was happening to Cosmic Moon. She remembered the damaging music ringing in her ears and the surgery she had to have because of it. She remembered how the only person she could be with afterwards was Michiru. Her anger grew.
Chibi Uranus stood up. She watched what Sardonyx was doing. She remembered having to face her biggest fear. She remembered how she felt when she was crying. Her anger grew.
Cosmic Moon continued to scream in pain. Lord Sardonyx laughed an easy laugh. "That's right Princess. Scream all you can because it won't be much longer. You will be dead soon."
"JUPITER DEADLY LIGHTENING BOLT!"
"SCREAMS OF DESTRUCTION!"
"DESTRUCTIVE RAY!"
The three attacks hit Lord Sardonyx who screamed and released his attack on Cosmic Moon. Cosmic Moon fell to the ground. Chibi Jupiter and Chibi Neptune ran over and helped her up.
"How dare you," screamed Chibi Venus in rage. She turned to the others. "We have to get his with all we have."
"Right," shouted the others and they pulled out their transformation sticks.
"Guardian Planet Mars lend me more power," cried Chibi Mars and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Mercury lend me more power," cried Chibi Mercury and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Jupiter lend me more power," cried Chibi Jupiter and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Venus lend me more power," cried Chibi Venus and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Pluto lend me more power," cried Chibi Pluto and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Saturn lend me more power," cried Chibi Saturn and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Neptune lend me more power," cried Chibi Neptune and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Uranus lend me more power," cried Chibi Uranus and her pen began to glow.
"Silver Imperium Crystal give me the power to conquer and destroy this fiend," shouted Cosmic Moon holding up the crystal.
"GUARDIAN PLANETS GIVE US POWER," yelled the Chibi Scouts and they held up their pens. They closed their eyes and the pens glowed with stronger power. The power rushed through all of them. Their bodies began to glow.
"I'll destroy you yet Chibi Scouts," shouted Lord Sardonyx. He held up his sphere and activated it. It began to glow.
Cosmic Moon held the crystal out toward Lord Sardonyx. It glowed and shot out energy repelling the energy from the sphere. Cosmic Moon gritted her teeth as the strain took its toll on her.
"Let's go," shouted Chibi Pluto.
"Right," shouted all the Chibi Scouts. Their bodies glowed and a rainbow of lights flew out of them. They merged with the energy of the silver crystal.
"Impossible," shouted Lord Sardonyx as he began to weaken.
"You will not succeed," screamed Cosmic Moon as she increased the power of the crystal. Lord Sardonyx screamed as his energy got overpowered. His sphere shattered and the powers from the crystal and the Chibi Scouts engulfed him. He screamed as he disintegrated.
The Chibi Scouts all collapsed as they fainted, completely drained of energy. Cosmic Moon sank down and gasped, "We did it." She activated the silver crystal to transport them all home before she too blacked out.
"She's waking up," she heard a voice say as she came around. Rini opened her eyes and saw her parents standing over her. "Mom, Dad," she croaked.
"It's okay Darling," Serenity whispered to her. "It's all over now."
"You have been out of it for two days," Endymion added.
Rini just nodded her head. Suddenly she sat up, "The others!"
"They are fine," Serenity assured her as she gestured toward the other beds in the hospital room. "They are just now waking up too."
Rini looked over and saw the other girls. Some were awake and talking with their parents. Others were sleeping peacefully. Relieved Rini sank back on her pillow. It was over.
Amy was pleased. She had met with each of the girls and all of them were much more stable than before. Destroying the person behind what had happened to each of them had worked. They still needed to talk about what happened but they were all laughing and playing again like before. The nightmares were less frequent now. They had made remarkable progress.
"Mommy," a voice came from the door. Amy looked up and saw Ariel standing there.
"Hi Sweetie," Amy replied as she held out her arms. Ariel ran into them. Amy picked the little girl up and carried her over to the chair. She sat down with the child on her lap.
"I'm so glad we beat Lord Sardonyx," Ariel told her mother.
"I am very proud of all of you," Amy smiled as she held the child close to her. "You are all doing so much better now."
"I feel a lot better," Ariel replied. She gazed up at Amy. "What will you give me if I gave you a giant hug?"
"I would give you a giant kiss," Amy replied. Ariel flung her arms around Amy and hugged her. Amy returned the hug with a kiss. Things were getting back to normal.
In Lord Sardonyx's realm his daughter Sard sat bitterly staring at her father's throne. Anger built up in side of her. "Sailor Cosmic Moon and those Chibi Scouts killed my Papa," she growled. "I will get them for this." Her eyes glowed as she began to plot revenge.
That's the end of the "Doom" series. Coming up will be a one part sequel titled "Possessed." Be on the look out.

Several times Raye had to go to the school to calm the child down.
Annika just flung her arms around her mother and did not say a word. She had a feeling something big was going to happen soon.
"Why are we here," asked Daisy as she sat down in one of the chairs Amy had put out for them.
"I decided we need to have a group session," Amy explained. She was sitting in one of the chairs with Ariel in her lap.
"Why do we need to have one of those," asked Maggie as she twirled a lock of her hair.

"MOON COSMIC POWER MAKE UP!"
"MERCURY POWER MAKE UP!"
"MARS POWER MAKE UP!"
"JUPITER POWER MAKE UP!"
"VENUS POWER MAKE UP!"
"PLUTO POWER MAKE UP!"
"NEPTUNE POWER MAKE UP!"
"URANUS POWER MAKE UP!"
"SATURN POWER MAKE UP!"
Bright lights of different transformations surrounded each girl. Scout uniforms replaced everyday clothes. Each girl ended her transformations in different poses.
"Are we ready Sailors," called Cosmic Moon.
"We are ready," shouted the Chibi Scouts and everyone headed toward the base.
In his lair Lord Sardonyx activated his sphere. He saw the young Sailor Scouts heading toward his base. "Well, well," he laughed. "It looks like there has been a change of plans. They want to come and fight. Well I will just have to bring them into the battle." Lord Sardonyx held up his sphere and activated it. He disappeared.
"Have you tracked him yet Chibi Mercury," asked Cosmic Moon.
"Not yet," Chibi Mercury replied as she scanned the area with her visor and computer. "But I am picking up an unusual energy source."

Lord Sardonyx watched as an opening appeared in the sky. The Sailor Cosmic Moon and the Chibi Scouts fell out of the hole and landed in a heap on the ground.
"Welcome Sailor Cosmic Moon and the Sailor Chibi Scouts," Sardonyx greeted.
"Who are you," demanded Cosmic Moon as she pulled herself up. Chibi Pluto helped Chibi Saturn to her feet.
"I am Lord Sardonyx," he replied. "I am the one you seek."
"So it was you who was behind all of this," screamed Chibi Venus. She powered up, "VENUS BEAUTIFUL SHOCKWAVE!" The giant heart flew out, exploded and sent out a vibrating shock wave. Lord Sardonyx only laughed and absorbed the attack.
"Your little attacks are nothing," he laughed. "You might as well surrender. I am going to destroy you."
"That's what you think," shouted Chibi Uranus and she powered up, "EARTHQUAKE TREMORS!" Lord Sardonyx was not ready for this attack and he fell down.
"How dare you," he shouted. "I am more powerful than any of you." He held up his sphere. Energy shot out from it and blasted Chibi Neptune and Chibi Uranus. They were sent sprawling. Chibi Pluto and Chibi Jupiter were next. He then took out Chibi Mars and Chibi Venus. Finally he got Chibi Mercury and Chibi Saturn. All of them were sent sprawling and lay in a heap on the ground.
"Why you," shouted Cosmic Moon and she ran toward him holding up her scepter. Lord Sardonyx only laughed and held up his sphere. Cosmic Moon was levitated toward him.
"Now I have got the leader and the future queen," he sneered. "When I finish with you I can take over the world. I promised my daughter she would be queen."
"That will never happen," shouted Cosmic Moon. "I will destroy you first."
Lord Sardonyx laughed harder. "Let's see you try." His sphere glowed and Cosmic Moon screamed in pain. "That's right Princess," he said. "You writhe here in pain until you die. Then I will get her friends."
Chibi Mars came around. She groggily sat up and saw what was happening. She remembered her battle with Jade, finding everyone unconscience, the injuries she received and the difficult ordeal she had been through these last several weeks. Her anger grew.
Chibi Venus pulled herself up and saw what was happening. She remembered being placed in an alternate reality where Annika was dead, Raye was missing, Daisy was in a coma and Mina was in a mental institution because of her. She remembered the pain she felt and her anger grew.
Chibi Mercury weakly sat up and saw what was happening. She remembered seeing the dead bodies of her friends. She remembered them becoming zombies and blaming her for their deaths. She remembered the terror she felt and her anger grew.
Chibi Jupiter pulled herself to her knees and saw what was happening to Cosmic Moon. She remembered being led to believe that her attacks killed innocent people. She recalled how physically sick she made herself after the ordeal. Her anger grew.
Chibi Pluto rolled over and saw what was happening. She remembered the wasteland she saw. She remembered seeing the dead bodies of the queen and her mother. She remembered the terror and anguish she felt. Her anger grew.
Chibi Saturn looked up and saw what Sardonyx was doing to Cosmic Moon. She remembered being placed in a maze. She remembered all of the youmas she had to fight and how she almost became dinner to two giant spiders. She recalled the fear she had to opening doors after that. Her anger grew.
Chibi Neptune sat up. She watched what was happening to Cosmic Moon. She remembered the damaging music ringing in her ears and the surgery she had to have because of it. She remembered how the only person she could be with afterwards was Michiru. Her anger grew.
Chibi Uranus stood up. She watched what Sardonyx was doing. She remembered having to face her biggest fear. She remembered how she felt when she was crying. Her anger grew.
Cosmic Moon continued to scream in pain. Lord Sardonyx laughed an easy laugh. "That's right Princess. Scream all you can because it won't be much longer. You will be dead soon."
"JUPITER DEADLY LIGHTENING BOLT!"
"SCREAMS OF DESTRUCTION!"
"DESTRUCTIVE RAY!"
The three attacks hit Lord Sardonyx who screamed and released his attack on Cosmic Moon. Cosmic Moon fell to the ground. Chibi Jupiter and Chibi Neptune ran over and helped her up.
"How dare you," screamed Chibi Venus in rage. She turned to the others. "We have to get his with all we have."
"Right," shouted the others and they pulled out their transformation sticks.
"Guardian Planet Mars lend me more power," cried Chibi Mars and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Mercury lend me more power," cried Chibi Mercury and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Jupiter lend me more power," cried Chibi Jupiter and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Venus lend me more power," cried Chibi Venus and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Pluto lend me more power," cried Chibi Pluto and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Saturn lend me more power," cried Chibi Saturn and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Neptune lend me more power," cried Chibi Neptune and her pen began to glow.
"Guardian Planet Uranus lend me more power," cried Chibi Uranus and her pen began to glow.
"Silver Imperium Crystal give me the power to conquer and destroy this fiend," shouted Cosmic Moon holding up the crystal.
"GUARDIAN PLANETS GIVE US POWER," yelled the Chibi Scouts and they held up their pens. They closed their eyes and the pens glowed with stronger power. The power rushed through all of them. Their bodies began to glow.
"I'll destroy you yet Chibi Scouts," shouted Lord Sardonyx. He held up his sphere and activated it. It began to glow.
Cosmic Moon held the crystal out toward Lord Sardonyx. It glowed and shot out energy repelling the energy from the sphere. Cosmic Moon gritted her teeth as the strain took its toll on her.
"Let's go," shouted Chibi Pluto.
"Right," shouted all the Chibi Scouts. Their bodies glowed and a rainbow of lights flew out of them. They merged with the energy of the silver crystal.
"Impossible," shouted Lord Sardonyx as he began to weaken.
"You will not succeed," screamed Cosmic Moon as she increased the power of the crystal. Lord Sardonyx screamed as his energy got overpowered. His sphere shattered and the powers from the crystal and the Chibi Scouts engulfed him. He screamed as he disintegrated.
The Chibi Scouts all collapsed as they fainted, completely drained of energy. Cosmic Moon sank down and gasped, "We did it." She activated the silver crystal to transport them all home before she too blacked out.
"She's waking up," she heard a voice say as she came around. Rini opened her eyes and saw her parents standing over her. "Mom, Dad," she croaked.
"It's okay Darling," Serenity whispered to her. "It's all over now."
"You have been out of it for two days," Endymion added.
Rini just nodded her head. Suddenly she sat up, "The others!"
"They are fine," Serenity assured her as she gestured toward the other beds in the hospital room. "They are just now waking up too."
Rini looked over and saw the other girls. Some were awake and talking with their parents. Others were sleeping peacefully. Relieved Rini sank back on her pillow. It was over.
Amy was pleased. She had met with each of the girls and all of them were much more stable than before. Destroying the person behind what had happened to each of them had worked. They still needed to talk about what happened but they were all laughing and playing again like before. The nightmares were less frequent now. They had made remarkable progress.
"Mommy," a voice came from the door. Amy looked up and saw Ariel standing there.
"Hi Sweetie," Amy replied as she held out her arms. Ariel ran into them. Amy picked the little girl up and carried her over to the chair. She sat down with the child on her lap.
"I'm so glad we beat Lord Sardonyx," Ariel told her mother.
"I am very proud of all of you," Amy smiled as she held the child close to her. "You are all doing so much better now."
"I feel a lot better," Ariel replied. She gazed up at Amy. "What will you give me if I gave you a giant hug?"
"I would give you a giant kiss," Amy replied. Ariel flung her arms around Amy and hugged her. Amy returned the hug with a kiss. Things were getting back to normal.
In Lord Sardonyx's realm his daughter Sard sat bitterly staring at her father's throne. Anger built up in side of her. "Sailor Cosmic Moon and those Chibi Scouts killed my Papa," she growled. "I will get them for this." Her eyes glowed as she began to plot revenge.
That's the end of the "Doom" series. Coming up will be a one part sequel titled "Possessed." Be on the look out.
