Life on the Moon Kingdom
Princess Serena carefully picked flowers as the Moonlight casted a soft glow on her skin. This was what she had remembered mostly. When she was fighting evil she had longed to go back home, And now her dream had come true. The Scouts had fought the and defeated the evil powers of the Negaverse and were now once again back home. "Serena, darling. Come inside please." Queen Serenity called to her daughter. "Yes, Mother!" Princess Serena responded cheerfully and stood up. The soft breeze brushed across her hair and skin and she ran with dignity to the entrance of the Moon Kingdom. She than slipped and fell. "Ow!!" She exclaimed. Queen Serenity chuckled softly, "Darling, How many times do I have to say not to run?" She said softly. "Sorry, Mother. I forgot." Princess Serena said as she stood up. "That's all right." Queen Serenity smiled. Princess Serena brushed off her long gown and stepped inside the Moon Kingdom. It was like she had remembered, Pillars lined up on either side of them which had created a path to the Ball Room. "Your friends are waiting, Princess." Queen Serenity said. "Yes, I won't keep them waiting." She walked down the pathway remembering not to run and reached the Ball Room. This was also how she remembered it. It was brillantly lit up with a Chandilear in the middle of the room. Soft music played and the room seemed to be filled with so much excitement. "Princess Serena!" Princess Mina ran up to her. "I can't believe we're finally back home!" She continued. "Yeah, I know." Princess Serena agreed, smiling. Soon everyone else had joined Princess Mina and Princess Serena. They laughed quietly. Princess Lita looked around, "Hey, Where are Princess Haruka and Princess Michiru?" Princess Rei laughed. "Princess Haruka probably doesn't want to be seen in a dress." She said. "Probably right." Princess Haruka said as she and Princess Michiru walked towards them. "Princess Michiru-mama! Princess Haruka-papa!" Princess Hotaru exclaimed as she ran on her short little feet towards them hugging them tightly. "Hello my precious." Michiru smiled and hugged her back. "I miss you!" Princess Hotaru exclaimed. "Well we're here now." Princess Haruka said taking her turn and hugged her back. Princess Hotaru smiled brightly as Princess Michiru gently picked her up. Princess Hotaru squealed with happiness. Princess Setsuna walked slowly in. "I'm glad everyone is here." She smiled. "Princess Setsuna-mama!" Princess Hotaru squealed again and bounced up and down in Princess Michiru's arms. Princess Michiru set her down and she ran over to Princess Setsuna and hugged her tightly. "I also miss you!" She exclaimed. "And I missed you too." Princess Setsuna said and hugged her back. Princess Serena watched this scene happily when she felt a pulling on her hair. She turned around and spotted Princess Rini. "There you are my daughter!" She said and picked her up swinging her around. Princess Rini giggled. Princess Serena set her down and Princess Rini spotted Princess Hotaru. "Princess Hotaru!" She exclaimed and ran towards her. "Wha?" Princess Hotaru blinked and turned around just as Princess Rini hugged her. "Hi Princess Rini!" Hotaru exclaimed with just as much excitement. "Me miss you too! Me miss everyone!" Princess Hotaru said and she ran around hugging everyone. Princess Serena laughed softly, "And we all missed you too Princess Hotaru!" She said. Princess Hotaru giggled and reached her arms up to Princess Michiru. Princess Michiru picked Princess Hotaru up again and she once again squealed with delight. "It's very nice to be back." Princess Ami said and sighed softly. "Yeah." Everyone agreed. "It takes all the stress away from fighting the Negaverse." Princess Lita said. "Yeah, We can just live in peace now." Princess Rei said and sighed also. "Where's Luna?" Princess Serena asked. Everyone looked down. "Princess, Since we're back at the Moon Kingdom there was no purpose for Luna, Artemis and Diana to come with us..They didn't need to guard us anymore.." Princess Ami said sadly. Princess Serena said nothing and looked down. Princess Mina and Princess Rini did the same thing. The three were especially sad, Those were their guardians. The room became quiet except for the soft hum of the music. Princess Serena remembered when Luna had trained her and yelled at her for wanting to run away from battles of the Negaverse. Luna had seemed a pain than, But now she missed her. Princess Serena's eyes teared up as she felt a soft touch on her arm. She looked up and saw Luna in her human form. "Luna!" Princess Serena exclaimed happily. "Just because I don't need to guard you anymore, It doesn't mean I'll be gone forever, Princess." Luna said happily as well. Soon, Artemis and Diana were behind Luna also in their human forms. "Diana!" Princess Rini exclaimed. "Princess Rini," Diana replied and bowed politely. "Princess Serena." She said bowing still. "You certainly have raised a polite daughter, Luna." Princess Ami said as she noticed Diana bowing. "I guess she took after the Queen herself." Luna said smiling. "Yes Mama! She wanted me to be polite whenever I came across the new Queen and future Queen!" Diana said, a smile on her face as well. "She certainly taught you well." Princess Ami said. "Artemis, You've been extremely quite." Princess Mina said. "Oh, Sorry, Princess Mina." Artemis replied looking down to cover a light blush. Luna noticed this light blush with quite a stir. "Artemis..Don't tell me you still have little feelings for Princess Mina again.." Luna said angerly. "Um..Than I won't tell you." Artemis said chuckling softly. Luna's anger rose as she walked towards Artemis. "Uh..uh..Down kitty!" Artemis exclaimed. Luna stopped, a bit startled. "I'm not a cat anymore, Artemis." Luna said. "I know, It was just a jo-" Artemis started to say. "Maybe you wouldn't mind in not joking." Luna said, interupting Artemis. "Of course." Artemis replied. A light chuckle arose from Princess Serena. "Hm, You two still act like cats even though you aren't." She said. "Yeah, Especially Artemis." Princess Mina chimed in. A sweat drop appeared on Artemis' head as he murmured, "I guess that will never go away.." Everyone started to laugh softly as Queen Serenity walked in slowly and the Princess' laughter faded. Princess Serena bowed politely. "What is wrong, Mother?" Princess Serena asked worriedly. Queen Serenity sighed, and spoke very softly. "You all are ordered to return to your respective planets.." Princess Michiru stepped in front of Princess Haruka and said, "My Queen, I don't want to leave Haruka." Queen Serenity sighed again, "I'm sorry, But it's not my orders. I am very much against this but it's an order that unfortunetly you all must obey." "But, I-I love Haruka..I just can't leave her..I'll be too lonely, I won't be able to live without her.." Princess Michiru said as she hugged Princess Haruka tightly. "I'm very sorry..But it's an order that I can't turn around.." Queen Serenity said and looked away. "When are we suppose to leave?" Princess Rei asked. Queen Serenity didn't answer for a few moments, "Now.." She finally said. Princess Michiru gasped and looked up at Princess Haruka as a tear fell down her cheek. "I can't leave you Haruka.." Princess Haruka looked away, "But you must. We must leave each other. You heard it, It's the orders. "I don't care!" Princess Michiru cried. "How can you be so heartless about this?!?" Princess Haruka looked taken a back. "It's orders. Michiru, You'll never really be alone. I'll always be with you." She said. Princess Haruka broke away from Princess Michiru's grasp and walked to Queen Serenity, Not letting Princess Michiru see her tears. "I'm ready to leave." She said as she lowered her head not letting Queen Serenity see her tears either. "Than..Leave a wonderful life..Good Bye.." Queen Serenity said. Princess Haruka nodded and began to materialize. "No!! Haruka!! Don't leave me!!!" Princess Michiru screamed as she ran to where Princess Haruka was being materialized "Don't leave me! I need you!! Don't go!!" She cried, hugging Princess Haruka's disappearing form. "I'm sorry, Michiru." Princess Haruka said as her voice faded and she disappeared. "No!!!!" Princess Michiru screamed. "No! No!!!" Queen Serenity spoke in a soft voice, "Perhaps you'll feel a bit better if you return to your planet. One's planet can make someone feel better." "I'll never feel better! Ever! Haruka's gone!" Princess Michiru exclaimed. But she was too tired to fight it. She would find a way back to Haruka. "I miss you Michiru-mama!" Princess Hotaru exclaimed and ran up to Princess Michiru and hugged her. "I'll miss you too, my precious Hotaru." Princess Michiru said as she hugged her back. She took off her necklace and handed it to Hotaru. "We'll be a family once more, Don't you worry." Princess Michiru said as she began to materialize. Princess Haruka reappeared on her planet and she yelled out into the stars immediatly, "Why did I have to go?!? I left her!! I might never be able to see Michiru again!" She cried as she banged her fists into her planet. She began to feel weak. If she destroyed her planet she'd destroy herself. But part of her but already destroyed. Doing this wouldn't matter much. She was already being ripped apart inside. She got up and stormed into her castle Tatania. She looked around at it. Having forgotten what it looked like after all these years. The walls glimmered metallicaly as an unsheathed sword. She had brought Michiru here once, She thought as she cried harder and her vision would be only a miracle to see. She'd never stop crying, That would be part of her life now. She would cry all day. She would cry all night. Nothing would matter. Nothing mattered anymore. Princess Haruka sat herself down on the floor and cried even more. She'd probably never be able to see her again. She thought. "Why does my life matter anymore?!?" She screamed. She remembered the times she had spent with Michiru. Those were the happiest moments of her life. But now they were gone. Crushed along with her. She began banging her fists against the floor and wondered what she must have looked like. She knew she was too old to be acting this way, And was supposed to act like a Princess, But why would she? She didn't care. She didn't care if she was scolded at for not being Princess-like. But she really didn't care. Haruka picked herself off the floor and marched to the display of Swords. No, No, She thought. She wouldn't resort to killing herself. She'd find a way to Michiru if it was the last thing she did. Princess Michiru appeared on her planet and cried. "How? How could Haruka be so cold like that?!? How could she not even care that she had left her!" Michiru screamed. She just walked away and said she was ready to go. Michiru cried and looked up at the Stars. She remembered that Haruka and her loved to look at the Stars together. It was one of the many things they loved doing. But that was gone. She'd never be able to look at the Stars with Haruka again. Their beauty and brilliance was gone now. She'd never enjoy looking at them, They'd only bring painful memories of Haruka back to her and that would make her feel worse. "Poor Princess Michiru.." Princess Serena said as she looked down. She could imagine how horrible Michiru must feel right now. Suddenly Serena felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up. "We..Should be going too.." Princess Setsuna said as she held Princess Hotaru. Princess Serena nodded sadly. She knew that there was nothing she could do to stop this. It was orders and they couldn't revert those orders. If they tried to they might get killed. Princess Serena hugged Princess Setsuna and Princess Hotaru. "We'll try to work something out.." Princess Serena said. Princess Setsuna nodded and began to disappear along with Princess Hotaru. Tears came to Princess Serena's eyes as she covered her face and cried. Her best friends were leaving her..She didn't want it to be like this.. Princess Michiru banged her fists into her Planet. Yes, She knew this would eventually kill her, But she didn't care. It would probably be for the best. She fell weak to the ground, She knew she was going to die. A thought than struck her. Senshi couldn't die. They lived forever.. But certainly destroying her Planet would do something to her. She picked herself off the ground and once again began banging her fists into the ground. Princes Haruka felt a pull as she thought she felt something. Her eyes widened as she ran out of her Castle and back onto her Planet. "No! No Michiru! Don't destroy your Planet!! Don't!" She screamed, Hoping Michiru would hear her. Princess Michiru looked up from the ground and looked around. What was it that she heard? She thought she had heard Haruka. But that was impossible, Their Planets were miles from each other. Princess Haruka cried as she knew that Michiru wouldn't hear her. She fell to her knees and began praying that she'd be with Michiru. She remembered her dream, She wanted to become the Wind. Maybe, Just maybe if she prayed hard enough her other dream of wanting to be with Michiru would come true. Princess Haruka yelled up into the Wind, "Take me to Michiru!" Suddenly she felt she was being lifted up and she soon realized she was flying with the Wind. She looked down as her Planet sped by her down below. Another Planet came into site after a while. She thought, Could that be the Planet Neptune? She hoped so. Suddenly, The Wind seized and she fell to the Planet. Princess Michiru felt her Planet shake as she looked around. Off in the distance she spotted a tall shape. Could it be Haruka? She thought as she ran towards it. "Haruka?!?" She yelled. "Michiru!" Princess Haruka yelled back and she ran towards Michiru. Princess Michiru made Haruka fall over as she tackled her into a hug. "How did you get here?!?" Michiru cried as tears flew from her eyes. "The Wind." Haruka responded as she hugged her back. "I wanted to die, Haruka.." Michiru said. "I know, I know. I wanted to too." Haruka replied. "Haruka? What will happen to us since you broke the order?" Michiru asked as she looked up at Haruka. Haruka smiled softly down at Michiru and brushed her hair back "If they kill us than I shall become the Wind and you shall become the Sea. And if that does happen than nothing will be able to tear us apart." Haruka replied. "Oh Haruka.." Michiru said as she hugged Haruka again. "I want to be the Sea right now..I don't want to be away from you ever again." Michiru said. "Well, There's no reason that shouldn't happen. I'm sure they're very upset right now that we broke the order." Haruka responded. Princess Hotaru appeared on her Planet and ran around widely. She missed everyone dearly. How was she suppose to care for herself? No one was there to care for her. "Mama-Michiru! Ruka-Papa! Setsuna-mama! I miss yous!!" She cried. Everyone was now on their respective Planets, Princess Serena thought as she sighed. "I'll never see my friends again.." She cried weakly. Just than, Everyone felt their Planets shake beneath them. "What's going on?!?" Princess Rei yelled as she tried to keep her footing. A Star shone brightly as everyone covered their eyes. A Planet than formed from that Star as everyone was lifted of their Planets. They appeared on this unfamilliar Planet and Princess Hotaru ran towards Princess Michiru, Princess Haruka, and Princess Setsuna. "HI!!!!!!!!!" She yelled happily. The three bent down to hug her. "Welcome, Everyone." The Princesses turned to spot Queen Serenity. "Mother, What is this place?" Princess Serena questioned. "The new Kingdom. This Planet is combined of all 9 Planets. And the strength of every Planet lives here. The next livable Planet next to Earth, That is this Planet. You will all be able to live here together and won't have to leave each other. This Planet will be ruled by my daughter, Princess Serena. My time to rule has expired now, And I must return back to the Moon. Princess Serena will be making the rules here. I'm sorry that you all have to deal with the burden of leaving each other. But here you won't have to deal with that. You can return to your respective Planets at anytime wanted. Your Planets aren't destroyed. They'll remain here forever along with this new Planet. But now I must return back home." Queen Serenity said as she bowed. "But, Mother! You'll be lonely back home!" Princess Serena protested. "Fear not, My child. A new group of Soilders will be born. The Chibi Senshi. My new job will be to teach them to fight if evil does break lose." Queen Serenity said. "When will they be born?" Princess Rei asked. Queen Serenity smiled, "You will see a light emitting from your Planet when they're born. You all may live in peace. Your jobs of fighting evil is over with now." Queen Serenity than disappeared. "Well now, Imagine that. A new group of Soilders will be born..With any luck they'll probably be just like us. Perhaps they'll even act like us. It will be like we're children again. Right, Haruka?" Michiru said as she looked to Haruka. Haruka coughed into her hand and blushed lightly. "Right." She said. "I-I can't believe it..I'm actually the ruler now.." Princess Serena said. Haruka looked up at the Stars and sighed. "Is there something wrong, Haruka?" Michiru asked. "No, It's just..I thought that..That..I'd never be able to look at the Stars with you ever again.." Haruka responded. "Strange, But, I thought the same thing.." Michiru said as she followed Haruka's gaze to the Stars above. "They're so beautiful." Michiru breathed. "Just like you." Haruka said. Michiru chuckled softly and blushed. "Can you two please stop flirting with each other?" Rei asked. Haruka pouted, "Aww..Why?" "Because it kind of gets annoying after hearing it for almost non-stop for a 1,000 years." Rei responded. "We certainly never get tired of it." Haruka said as she winked at Michiru. Michiru in return, blushed.
