Ai no Senshi Sailor Moon soap opera Episode 42
Air date: Friday February 2 2001
"Prepare to die. Your blood will wash the blood of our pain away. Maybe then we can move on. Living as children is not what we want. But to move on we must kill those who dealt the final blow." Said Kuroi.
There was yet another blinding flash and everyone was alone. Alone in the blackness of the dessert plane.
"Arise my dark minions, and spread your hell!" Yelled Hikari-shi for somewhere that no one could see.
The sand in front of Nozomi began to rise forming a human like shape. It became more and more apparent that it was turning human. Then the sand began to fall away, revealing peach skin, brown hair, and a light purple uniform. . .
"It's me. . ." Nozomi whispered in awe.
"Yes, it's you." Replied the other Nozomi.
The real Nozomi stepped back putting her hands behind her back. When she pulled them back out, she had a bow and arrow.
"I wouldn't do that if I was you." Said the other Nozomi as she tilted her head.
Nozomi ignored her and drew the bow. An arrow flew through the air making a whistling sound. It sliced through the other Nozomi's left shoulder.
Then the real Nozomi felt the pain as her own skin tore open. She dropped to the ground gripping her arm.
"What's going on?" The real Nozomi wondered out loud.
"You hurt me, your hurt yourself. You don't destroy me, you don't live." Replied the other Nozomi.
Then the real Nozomi began to sink into the sand.
"Help!" She cried.
Next Scene
Trowa and his family were in the air port waiting for Scarlet and Duo. Finally Duo showed up alone.
"Mom, dad." He said.
Makoto hugged him like there was no tomorrow.
"What the fuzzies were you thinking?!" She yelled at him. "Running of like that!"
"Hey, I wanted to get away. Things were barely crawling back there. Until the news about dad and Setsuna broke out." Duo replied.
His mother grew very red and looked like she was going to explode.
"Umm well, Scarlet and Micah weren't able to come they had some important business to attend to. But I'll drive you back to their castle." Duo said quickly.
"Oh, man I really wanted to meet them." Said Gohan.
"Well I guess you'll just have to wait for their return." He replied.
They got into the car and headed back to the castle.
Next Scene
The sand rose up in front of Kokurami and quickly became a human girl. It looked just like her sister Nozomi.
"Is that you Nozomi?" She asked.
The girl before her was dripping with blood. Her eyes full of tears. She fell to the ground with a thud.
Kokurami ran to her sister and placed Nozomi's head in her lap.
"Nozomi, Nozomi, are you ok?" Asked Kokurami.
Nomomi's eyes fluttered open.
"I'm in pain. . . Please help me. .." She whispered.
Nomomi's blood trickled down her face and onto Kokurami's skirt.
Suddenly Kokurami let out a cry of pain as Nozomi stabbed a dagger into her left shoulder. She then pulled the dagger out and laughed.
She titled her head and shoved Kokurami away.
Kokurami's blood oozed from the wound and tears welled up in her eyes. "How, how could you be so cruel?" She asked.
"I'm not your sister. But I am part of her. Hurt me, hurt her, kill me, and kill her. But you cannot leave until I am dead." Replied the fake Nozomi.
"Oh God. . ."
Next Scene
Micah was alone. And had been for some time now. Very very alone. And then Kuroi appeared.
"I told you not to come." She said softly.
"I had to." Replied Micah.
"Why? Why did you have to?" Asked Kuroi.
"Because I want to save this world." She replied.
"From what? From us? When it twas the good side that did the killing. We are just righting the wrong that was done to us. Then we will leave your world as it is." Replied Kuroi.
"But the darkness inside you won't let it be at that. Killing us for what we did to you family what stop it. It'll want more and more." Replied Micah.
Kuroi sighed. "You're most likely right. But this must happen no matter what the cost. Maybe
this way both sides will understand that killing is not the way."
Next Scene
Hikari-Shi watched the on going battles. They had to pay. For the good of both sides. If they could have found another way to ride the town of evil none of this would have happened. None of it.
"Mama, daddy, you will not go unavenged forever." She whispered.
Next Scene
Usagi sat alone at home. She hadn't been called into battle. No matter, her powers weren't working. She couldn't transform.
"What's wrong with me?" She asked.
"I don't know, could it be anything worse than what's wrong with me?" Heero asked as he walked into the room.
"Heero. . ." She whispered.
"I'm sorry for what I've done to you Usako." He said as he sat next to her on the bed.
She turned to look at him.
He took her hand and stared into her blue eyes.
"Can you ever forgive me?" He asked.
"Yes, I can. And I do." She replied. "But I am now Eagle's fiancee." She replied.
"It's not too late to rekindle our old flame." Heero said.
"That is if the I want to. There is now a child to consider." Usagi replied.
Heero hung his head in defeat.
She leaned up against him and sighed.
"How is Fuu?" She asked.
"Fine I suppose. She and I are in the middle of getting divorced."
"That's awful. She loved you so much." Usagi replied.
"But I love you more Usako. So much more." He said as he rapped his arms around her.
"But I cannot forget Eagle." She said softly.
Heero sighed.
Next Scene
The real Nozomi stood before the fake. And the real one was dripping with blood. After Nozomi had come back up from the sinking sand, it wasn't wet though, dry sand. . . The sand was hot though, like the inside of an oven. She had felt like her skin was melting off. But there she was, unmelted. But bleeding from the battle with herself.
"Just give up now. If you die, then your sister will be freed with no strings attached." Said the other Nozomi.
"Give up now, and my sister goes free. . ." She echoed.
The other Nozomi nodded.
"I could insure the safety of my sister. . ." She trailed off.
The other Nozomi nodded.
Nozomi dropped to her knees as the loss of blood was draining.
"My sister, or myself. . ."
"DON'T GIVE UP HOPE!" A voice called out over the entire plane. It was Micah's voice.
****** thank you to Nabiki for her help with Usagi and Heero. She came up with the idea that
they should at least be friends again, oh, and you never know what else could happen. . .******
