Chapter 10- The Defeat of Karma and the Death of a Princess
By Miko of da Shinigami
Miko's Note~ Most of the rest of my fic is gonna be from Hotaru's point of view. If it's not I'll say so. ENJOY! an EXTREMLY special thanks to Sailorgundam (Mako-chan) who is a total genius!!!!!! THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You rock and the next 2 chapters are dedicated to you because you are the BEST!!!!!!! THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (again) Hehehe! ^-^…wow…the big 1-0…I can believe it's been ten chapters and people still review…and I note to Sailor Aphrodite; I downloaded a bunch of songs from napster but I stumbled across some lyrics at www.animelyrics.com and there is even more lyric translations at www.gundamwing.org !!!
Disclaimer~ Sadly Gundam Wing and Sailor Moon do not belong to me (WAA!) it belongs 2 a bunch of lucky (and probably VERY rich) people. But unofficially duo is mine and Dana's so there. PPPBBBBTTTH! ::: dodges large heavy objects thrown by other gundam otakus, then, do to lack of athletic ability, get hit in the head…ouch::: and this plot also belongs to me… don't be a copycat ^.^ meow! And I don't own any songs…so don't sue me!
Red…I like this color! Everyone says it looks good on me cuz I've got long brown hair but I prefer black and purple because Hotaru's color is purple and Duo wears black. I think those two colors look perfectly fine on me but people say I shouldn't were black because they say I'm to cheerful so I say "Tell that to the Shinigami!" oh…wait…I'm supposed to be writing my fic aren't I! Well here it goes!
***Last time***
"I'm sorry, Hotaru. We all hurt sometimes. Being a pilots makes you grow up to fast. Don't grow up to fast Hotaru. One day your going to achieve your dreams and your going to be glad you didn't throw your life away over some meaningless battle. I wish I could be with you on that day. Because I love you, and I want to be with you everyday." Duo spoke his message of love in a cheery voice to a field filled with Death and Destruction.
***This time***
"Hotaru," Rei said. "I don't get it! Why are you so mad at him! He saved your life."
"He shouldn't have," Hotaru said as she fiddled with th4e chain to one of her many lamps. "I could have defeated her!"
"And you could have died," Mina said.
"Duo's on the phone," Lita said. "Again. What should I tell him?"
Hotaru ran over and yanked out the cord. She walked slowly back to her desk and turned off the lamp. The others got the point and left.
Hotaru sighed. "I can't see him again. He doesn't understand my own mission. He just doesn't get it, but it doesn't matter. I'll still protect him. He doesn't deserve to die in a battle like this when he has nothing to do with the Moon Kingdom. But how did he get into this in the first place?"
***Meanwhile***
"Darnit," Duo said. 'I'm so stupid. How could I have gotten her so angry.'
"Are you done using the phone," Quatre said.
"Yeah but it's no use," Duo said. "Mina's phone was somehow disconnected.."
"Oh well," Quatre said. "I'll talk to her tomorrow."
"Yeah," Duo said. "Tomorrow."
***Tomorrow ^-^***
"I don't wanna!" Hotaru grumbled as Mina dragged her out of bed and pulled her uniform over her head. She shoveled some scrambled eggs in her mouth, shoved a toothbrush nearly down her throat, and pushed her out the door. Mina did this all in a matter of seconds.
"Tough," Lita said. "They may know who we are, but we know who they are. They really can't try anything that bad."
"I just won't be able to be in the same room as them," Rei said with a sigh. "I don't know how we will make it through the year."
"We don't have to," Hotaru said. "We leave after we defeat Karma. I'm sure we can do that with ease."
"But we have to stay for the dance," said Mina.
"Do I dare ask why," Lita said.
"I already have a date!" Mina exclaimed.
"Imagine that…" Ami said.
***Now 2 da G-Boys!***
"We should talk to them," Quatre said, looking over to where the five girls stood.
"We should avoid them," Heero said. "They are our enemies. You know that."
"Well I'm going to talk to Mina," Quatre said. "You all can just stay put but I just have to speak with her."
***Scouts***
"Here comes Quatre," Lita said.
"Shoot him," Hotaru said with a yawn.
"No way!" Mina said. "I have to talk to him."
"Just try not to tell him anything about the mission," Rei said.
"Oh," Hotaru said, turning red. "I'm sure Duo already told him everything…"
"And guess who told Duo!" Rei scolded.
"Mina," Ami said. "Go talk to Quatre. Tell him nothing of our mission. Just talk."
"Gomen, Ami!" and Mina skipped over to Quatre.
***Mina and Quatre (sitting in a tree…k-I-s-s-I-n-g!)***
"Konnichiwa," Mina said.
"Hello Crescentbeam," Quatre said.
"ummmm…" Mina turned red, then added. "Got me on that one 04!"
"Oh well," Quatre said. "I guess it's just one more thing we have on common. Got any leads on Karma?"
"No," Mina said. "But you probably don't believe me…"
"Why wouldn't I. I trust you Mina, and you being a Gundam pilot like me shouldn't change anything. It certainly doesn't change how I feel about you," said a very red Quatre.
Mina pulled Quatre into a hug. "Thank you for being so perfect."
Mina ran off to walk into the school with her friends. Quatre reached up to his forehead. It was warm. He looked at his reflection in to school window. The window swirled and a picture formed. A tall man with blond hair and golden armor appeared. On his head was a strange symbol. 'It looks like the one on Gundam Crescentbeam.' The image disappeared as quickly as it came. 'I knew I should have gotten more sleep.'
***In school***
"Hey Hotaru," Duo said.
Hotaru ignored him.
"Hey, Hotaru."
Duo waited a few more seconds.
"Hey Hotaru."
"WHAT!" Hotaru said, frustrated. 'I won't tell him anything about the mission. I will not.'
"I dunno," Duo said. "I was just really bored."
"Then leave me alone unless you want to meet the really Shinigami, Death…"
"Was that a threat…was that the first time you've spoken to me since you tried to knock me out with a huge rock? And here I was, expecting Destruction to be a little nicer."
"Well you not exactly the personification of Darkness are, you?!"
"Miss Tomoe," Ms. Adams said. "One more word and you will join your friend in detention."
"When you put it that way I won't say a word." Hotaru said.
"Now on with the lesson," Ms. Adams said.
Hotaru struggled to keep her eyes open. 'Long night. I knew I should have gotten more sleep.'
***in her dream***
She stood in the middle of a field, wearing her tattered senshi uniform, her glaive fell from her hand. 'This dream again.' She looked around, but there was no one in sight. All she saw around her was destruction. Destruction? Did I do this? She wandered around, looking for any sign of life. She saw a small boy sitting in the wreckage of a small house. 'But what does it mean.' He had short brown hair and was no older than three. He was shaking the body of a young woman who had been trapped under the fallen roof. "Please wake up," he said in a small voice. Suddenly he noticed her presence. He gasped at the sight of her, and she noticed why. She was glowing a faint purple and floating a couple of inches from the ground. "Are you an angel?" He asked. "Yes, and I'm here to help you." She kneeled next to the boy "What happened here, child?" She asked the tiny boy. "I…I cant remember…" He said. He looked up at her. She stared into his large, cobalt blue eyes. The symbol of Saturn shone on his dirt smeared forehead. 'My planet, this boy, I know him…' "Duo?" She said aloud. "Hotaru!" the boy, now full grown and all in black exclaimed.
***out of dream***
Hotaru's hand slipped from beneath her and her head hit thew desk with a thud.
"Ouch," Hotaru said, rubbing her head. 'A strange dream. It was just like the other one. But the symbol. Strange…'
"I see you finally decided to join us," Ms. Adams said. "And just in time for Lunch."
"Ummhmmm…" The bell rang. "Your right. See ya after lunch Ms. Adams!" Hotaru jumped up and ran to catch up with her friends.
"Kuso…" Hotaru muttered.
"I told you to get some sleep," Lita said, as she took a seat.
"Ya know what's weird," Mina said.
"What?" Lita said.
"Relena hasn't said a word to Heero since Friday," Mina said. "Ya think something's wrong?"
"I don't know," Hotaru said, looking over to Relena. Everything around her began to spin. In her eyes, Relena began to glow and everything became cold and Hotaru crumbled.
***Welcome to Dreamland! (again ^-^)***
That house, that face, that symbol. "Are you an angel?" 'Not the kind people think I am. Not the kind people wanted me to be.' Hotaru stared at the sky, expecting to see the moon, but it wasn't there. She stood on a planet of darkness. She stood on Saturn.
A small girl approached the crying boy. "What's a matter?" The tiny girl asked. She had short almost black hair and was wearing a black dress. In her hands, she held lilac.
"She's gone," the boy said.
"I'm sorry," the girl said.
"Don't be. It's my fault." The boy said. "Leave. Get away from me before you die."
"You can't destroy me." The girl said. "I am Destruction, after all."
'It's me…'
"And I am Death." The small boy stood up. "Come with me Destruction." The girl took his hand. "Never leave me."
The symbol of Saturn shone on the foreheads of the two children.
Many years later they stood side by side and hand in hand. The symbol of Saturn still shone on their forehead.
***End dream***
Hotaru slowly opened her large violet eyes. Duo stood above her.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"I'm fine," Hotaru got up and brushed passed him. "What happened?" she asked her worried friends.
"You fainted," Rei said.
"And?"
"That's it," Lita said. "Duo caught you when you were collapsing, Mina cracked some joke about waking you up with a kiss, Quatre laughed, WuFei scowled, and Heero…stood."
"I had a dream," Hotaru said.
"What was it about?" asked Rei.
"I…can't…remember…" Hotaru said. "But it was something…important."
"Was it about Duo!" Mina asked.
"Cut it out," said Lita, giving Mina a little push.
"I think it was…" Hotaru said. 'Why can't I remember!'
"Well anyway…" Lita said as Mina snickered. "I think we have a lead on Karma."
"Who," Hotaru asked.
"I dunno," Lita said. "But I'm getting some strange vibes."
"Yeah," Hotaru said.
Suddenly Relena went walking by. Without hesitation, Hotaru stuck out her foot. Relena fell.
"Oops," Hotaru said with a smile. She held out her hand. Relena hesitated, then took it.
A wave of darkness, pain, and cold washed over her.
Hotaru pulled back her hand. A large burn mark in the shape of Saturn appeared on her hand. "Karma."
Relena grinned evilly, her attention turned to Lita. "You turned him against me, Jupiter. I will not forgive you. We were destined to be together, Lita Kino. I won't let you use your evil magic on my Heero."
"Karma," Lita said.
"Surprise ya," Relena said.
"Not really," Lita replied. "I always new you were evil."
"Shut you mouth," Relena said. "I'm the one with the power here. You're the one who is about to die."
"Not if I can help it," said Lita ask she took out her transformation pen.
"What is going on," said a monotone voice.
"Stay back, my love," Relena said. "I will save you from this witch!"
"I'm warning you, Relena," Heero said. "Keep away from her."
"You don't know what you're doing Heero," Relena said. "You love only me. I know you do. You told me so many times, Heero."
"I never said the words," Heero said.
"You DID!!" Relena screamed. "I know you did…"
"Get away from here, Karma," Hotaru said. "I can and will destroy you."
"And kill your beloved princess," Relena laughed evilly. "I think not."
"You are not our princess," Rei said.
"She's right," Ami said.
"Scouts," Mina said. "Let's transforms!"
"Jupiter Cosmos Power"
"Mars Cosmos Power"
"Venus Cosmos Power"
"Mercury Cosmos Power"
"Saturn Cosmos Power"
Five different colors filled the room. The Gundam Boys were blasted backwards.
The eternal sailor scouts stood before Karma.
"Your time is now, Karma," said Lita.
"Surrender and Leave Princess Relena," Mina said.
"Or we'll destroy you both," said Hotaru.
"Wow," Duo said, from his hiding place behind WuFei. "A SCYTHE!"
"It's a glaive you baka," Hotaru said. "Now get out of here before you get hurt."
"It's SHINY!" Duo squealed with joy and tried to touch it.
"Go away, Duo," Hotaru said. "We have to fight and you could get hurt."
"No," Heero said. "I'm not going to let her hurt Lita because of me."
"Fine," Hotaru said. "Just don't get in the way."
Saturn raised her glaive high above her head.
"Silence Glaive Surprise," Saturn yelled. No one said a word. Suddenly, there was a huge explosion and all the windows shattered.
The dust settled and Relena stood, unharmed. "You think you can defeat me with some puny stick!"
"A shiny puny stick," Duo murmured.
"Now it's your turn," Relena said. "Dark power, RELESE!"
"Hotaru, Look out!" Duo yelled. The ball of energy dissappeared.
"What the!" Relena yelled.
"Whoa," Hotaru said.
Lita threw out her hand. "Scout," She said. "Lets do this together."
"Together," Saturn said, talking to Lita hand. They all followed the example, and the scouts began to glow.
"Wow," Duo said.
"Interstellar Metamorphosis Puissance!" the scouts yelled. There was a blinding flash of light.
The five scouts dropped to there knees, weakened from the attack. But Karma was far from defeated.
"Hahaha," Karma laughed. "Stupid girls. I'm surprised my Heero believe you lies. You are weak. Now I will destroy you."
"No," Heero said. "I will destroy you." Heero pulled the Trigger and Relena fell to the ground.
Her eyes flicked gold, then red, and finally returned to blue.
"Heero," Relena murmured. "I'm sorry I wasn't stronger Heero. But I will be stronger for you. I love you Heero, and always will. That thought kept me going. Don't hate me Heero, please. Just be my friend. I won't cry Heero, because my love for you keeps me strong."
"I'm sorry, Relena," Heero said. "For not loving you back. But I will always be you friend." 'I'm sorry that I could not protect you. I'm sorry I failed this mission. I'm sorry I screwed everything up.'
"Aishiteru Heero," Relena said.
"Goodbye, Relena," Heero said.
And with that, Relena died.

Love I Shall not Weep Yet- Gundam Wing
Relena Peacecraft Image Song
Your eyes
That do not even glance back at me
Even if I follow them it is sad
My heart shakes
Ah... But I want to believe
Ah... Gentle thoughts
Love I shall not weep yet
Even if I am just staring
For there are no lies
In this romance
I shall not weep from the pain
By thinking of you
I only want to be stronger
Than I was yesterday
Setting my sights on dreams I fight
Like you
I shall not be defeated by things
Such as tears
Ah... Such days that go straight ahead
Ah... I want to be proud of them
Love I shall not weep yet
This thought I embrace
Now only goes on to turn
Into living courage
I shall not weep from the sorrow
For surely anytime
In this heart
Yes You are there
