Chapter Six

The first thing we had to do was talk. I saw that message clear in his
eyes. Something had happened, and it could mean that my world was in danger. I
had to know what it was. As much as I didn't want our meetings to be known, I had
to tell someone...especially if my people were in danger.
Endymion left the room quickly after that, pleading exhaustion. His guards
immediatly led him down the hallway, but they seemed to be on extra-alert. I soon
found out why when the man I remembered as Kunzite started to talk.
"Master, is she here now? That girl from the Moon that you spoke of? She
could be a danger to you! I can't believe that we have spies..alien spies trying to
manipulate us!"
I covered my mouth in shock. They thought we were trying to make them
act in our fashion? As a rule, we never interferred with their own free will. We only
watched...and I realized why Endymion and I should never have met. This is what
occured. Suspicion occured...hatred, and doubt. Was this why Endymion tried to
avoid me? His guards putting doubt in his mind? I didn't say a word though, but the
horror was deep-set in my mind at that point.
Once we were safely alone, I waited for Endymion to release the anti-
sleep spell he had on him. The only thing that I was worried about was his guards
following him into his dreams. I wondered if Endymion and I could visit my world...
where only the ones who were chosen to go there could step upon. Not even in
dreams were the unwanted let on our sacred ground.
"Endymion... I know of a place we could safely meet. Please, Endymion.
I fear that you will be followed if we stay on the Earth. Would you like to see where
I live? It may help you accept where I am from...."
Endymion frowned. "I would love to Serenity, but why would you want I,
who is not worthy of seeing your homeland, to see it? I have doubted you for no
reason. You had never doubted me."
I smiled. "I love you, my prince, my Endymion. I trust you because of that
love. I felt your every emotion, heard your every thought when we were seperated
that one time, and I knew that you loved me. I knew what you were like, and I didn't
blame you for your doubts. Our upbringing were two different styles! I grew up
with the natural thought in my head that there were lives on other planets. It never
occured to me that there couldn't be."
Endymion smiled in my general direction. Soon, though, he was asleep,
and he and I went to see Elios, to see if it was possible that we could go to the
Moon Kingdom for safety. Elios had a sad, haunted look in his eyes.
"You may do this, Prince, but I should warn you now. I do not know how
much time that you and Serenity have left, but it is short. Already I can see doubt
and fear growing in the minds of your guards. I can see them turning...please,
my Prince, be safe, and be cautious. I know it will hurt you to hear this, but your
guards can just as quickly become your enemies. Be on the alert, always."
Endymion nodded, but I saw the deep sadness in his eyes. His guards
were very close to him, as my senshi were to me. If someone was to tell me that
my senshi were to turn on me and destory the world I loved the most, I would not
believe their words, but if I did believe them, my world would already be shattered,
for without my friends..without the people I loved nearby, there was nothing for me.
A very wise person once told me that the land is not important, but the people are.

When we reached the gates of the palace, my mother was waiting.
As if she knew I was there. I was almost positive, for she looked straight at
Endymion and I. She shook her head. I saw, for the first time in my life, fear in
her eyes. Fear for her kingdom, for her people, and mostly the fate of what would
happen to the two children who decided to break the rules and find their true
loves in their dreams.
My mother had more power than Elios, it seemed, for she did a
gesture, and Endymion and I flared into exsistance. "Serenity, I knew that something
was wong, but why did you have to fall in love with someone that you could
never be with? This is going to destroy us all, daughter."
I looked down. I knew it, now. I already saw the signs on the Earth. Would
it soon infect the Moon as well? I thought of my friends, of the families that lived
here, of all the lives that were to be cut short because of an ill-fated love. I knew
it was too late to back out my destiny now. I just prayed that we would have the
strength to fight it off when the final battle came.
I knew that my mother would have no choice to hide Endymion and I
on the Moon for now. We were not waking up anytime soon, and I only hoped that
we would not still be sleeping when the battle began, for as spirits we would be
useless to the cause. All our energy was focused in our bodies, and we would
not be let back into those bodies until the time was right. I began to regret
deeply that spell I had cast.
Endymion looked as if he understood. We tried to let our last moments
together be the sweetest that there were. He and I explored the Moon, and he
told me of where the battle would come from. There had been a soceress on the
Earth by the name of Beryl. She was very beautiful, but also a very lonely girl.
She had changed suddenly one day, the same day that there were reports of
sunspots appearing. The very air changed.
"We will defeat her, one way or another, Serenity. This I promise." I
nodded. Even if we died trying, we would defeat this meance from spreading her
evil any further.
It was not to be so, though. Only a few days had passed by when we
were attacked. I tried to escape the dream world, but I was stuck, helpless to
watch, unable to assist anybody in the fight. My powers were useless, and one
by one I watched my friends, the people that had been with me since I had been
small, die.
The first to fall was Sailor Jupiter. Her skills had been great, but they
were turned aganist her when the sword was swung backwards. I would never
see her smile again, never have her defend me, or bake anything for our picnics.
The others fell one by one. Some fell by their own hands, magic that had come
from with inside them turned back the same way. I would never forget the site
of Sailor Mars.....it was imprinted in my memory. Soon they were all gone.
I saw them fleetingly, one more time, before they vanished from my
sight all together. Where were they going, I wondered? Then I saw my mother.
She had tears streaming down her face, but also the determination shone through.
"You will be defeated. There is still hope left out there. The Moon
Kingdom, ne, the human race will rise from the ashes of destruction that you
have caused. I will defeat you here, and that last flame will make sure that we
will have the second chance. Never again you."
I watched as my mother used the last of her energy to fight. She defeated
the soceress, but at a high price. Now Endymion and I were the only ones I saw
alive in a world full of death. Then I knew what my mother had been talking about.
Endymion and I were not the flame of hope that would bring a new start upon the
world. We had to search for the one senshi that had not died. We needed to find
Sailor Saturn.
` What do you think of that ending, minna? There is still more to go for
the story. Have you enjoyed this so far? Feedback!!!
