A Twisted Engagement
By: Lady Turquoise
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Damion how? I thought..."
Damion silently put his finger to her lips. "Shhhh, I'll explain later." With that he kissed her and pulled her closer to him. He pressed his lips into hers devouring her mouth and tongue, becoming one with her. He slowly removed her negligee one strap at a time, and he could feel her warm tight breasts rub against his chest. He pulled her tighter against him still. He ran his fingers through her silky hair, never stopping the glorious, passionate kisses. He moved over top of her and looked down into her ocean blue eyes that were so mysterious yet so beautiful to him. She smiled up at him knowing that finally after all of the time that they had waited they would finally go for it. He took her, giving her all the pleasures, fulfilling her every need. They were one, just as they always had been and always would be.
After it was over Joanna lay in bed next to Damion, his arms wrapped around her, her lips swollen, and her body sore. They had taken each other twice more after the first time, making up for the time that they had lost.
She ran her fingers through his hair. "I love you."
"I love you too."
Just then they heard someone banging on their door. Joanna and Damion both looked at each other, they were a mess. Joanna jumped out of bed and threw on some underwear and a dress and quickly ran a brush threw her hair.
She then helped Damion button his shirt. She could still hear the banging on her door.
"JOANNA! WE KNOW YOU'RE HOME NOW LET US IN!!!" yelled the fiery voice of Rei.
"Hold on Rei, I'll be there in a minute." yelled back Joanna. But the banging didn't stop.
Haruka and Mako-chan were at the end of the hallway and running towards the door planning on breaking it down. It was for Joanna's own good, she couldn't stay in there and feel sad for herself because Damion was dead, they had already dragged Mamoru out of his place, now it was time for Joanna.
The were about to hit the door when it suddenly opened on them.
Joanna looked down at the heap of Haruka and Makoto at her feet. "Hey Haruka, Mako-chan, how nice of you to drop by."
"Joanna, what happened to you!? You look awful."
"Thanks a lot Seiya. That means a lot to me."
"You know what I mean," said Seiya.
Just then Damion walked out into the living room looking just as bad as Joanna did.
"DAMION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" exclaimed everyone. "BUT HOW!!"
"Well I guess I had better explain it. You see with the healing power in the blast from the crystals and with Joanna's wish for me to come back I was revived from the dead. Simple as that."
Rei was looking at the two oddly the whole time, just then it hit her. "Oh my god!!!!! I'm so sorry you guys. We should have called first."
"What are you babbling about Rei?" asked Usgai.
Minako got what Rei was talking about. "Usagi look at them, it doesn't take a brainiac to figure it out, I mean come on, Rei figured it out!!!"
Raye just glared at Minako. "Usagi, we kinda intruded on something kinda personal."
"Huh what??? I don't understand."
"THEY WERE HAVING SEX!!!!!!!!!" yelled everyone at the same time.
Joanna and Damion's faces got red, they could feel their cheeks starting to burn.
"Oh." said Usagi looking only bout half of the shade of red that Joanna and Damion were wearing on there faces.
"Could you guys have said it any louder?!?!?!" asked Joanna. "I don't think that the people in America heard you!!!!"
"Sorry." said everyone bowing their heads.
"All I can say is, it's about damn time!" said Michiru, with Haruka nodding in agreement.
"This was the first time we had an opportunity, most of the time we are always interrupted by someone." said Joanna. "Especially by a certain ponytailed threesome." She said looking over at the Starlights.
The Starlights all blushed and cringed. "Umm, sorry." said Yaten managing a weak smile.
"Oh well, would you guys like some tea?" asked Damion trying to change the subject.
"Sure, and could you take, Mamoru, and the Lights with you, we are going to pry your fiancée for all the details." said Minako.
"Oh god help me!" yelled Joanna laughing.
"No problem with getting us to leave, Minako. We were going to pry Damion for all the details too." said Seiya grinning.
"Actually first Damion and I have something to discuss, alone," said Mamoru.
"Okay Darien, why don't we go out on the balcony and talk." suggested Damion.
As they walked out onto the balcony and Damion closed the sliding glass door behind them. Mamoru turned to Damion. "Damion, I... When I saw you die..." a tear slid down his cheek and he wiped it away. "I couldn't bear watching your life slip away, we were always friends, but the other night I found out something... Something that has turned my world upside down. I found out that...that.... that...."
"That we are brothers." said Damion finishing what Mamoru was trying to say.
"How did you..."
"I was told just as you were." Damion went over to Mamoru and put his hand on one of his shoulders. "We have a lot to catch up on but now is not the time."
Mamoru nodded as he felt a hot tear fall down his cheek.
"Come on now let's get in there and have some fun."
"I'm surprised, don't you think that you've had enough fun for today?" asked Mamoru with a sly smile crossing his face.
"One can never have too much fun." replied Damion with just as devious a smile.
A month later Damion was standing nervously at the
end of a long aisle staring down at the doublewide doors, Chibi-Usa, who
had come from the future just for their wedding, was walking down the aisle
now throwing delicate rose petals on the white carpet that lined the aisle.
He looked over at his Best Man, Mamoru.
"Mamoru, are you sure I ready for this?" he
whispered over to him.
"Man, chill, as soon as you see Joanna walk
down that aisle you will forget all doubts in your head about not being
able to be the perfect husband to her."
"How did you know what I was thinking?"
"Cause I went through the same thing when
I was getting married to Usako. Now pay attention cause they are starting
to play the song that will bring your future wife down that aisle and into
your arms forever."
"Thanks Mamoru, I couldn't have asked for
a better Best Man, or a better brother for that matter."
Joanna looked over at her father who had flown
in with her mother and a lot of her other relatives just so he could walk
his little girl down that aisle.
"Thank you so much daddy."
"You're welcome sweetheart," he said kissing
her forehead. " You look beautiful today."
"Thanks." she said blushing.
"Hey, they are playing your song. Shall we
go?"
"Lead the way."
The double doors parted and Joanna saw everyone
in the pew's stand up and look back at her and far away all the way at
the end of the aisle was Damion, looking more handsome than she had ever
seen him. With her first step out on that white carpet she knew that this
was the beginning of a new and wonderful life with the man that she would
love forever.
Damion looked in wide-eyed shock at the angel
that was walking down the aisle towards him. She was wearing a beautiful
floor length dress. The underskirt was covered in an intricate design of
spirals of spun silk and was covered by an ivory colored skirt that wrapped
around the back and was fastened in the front. The top of the dress was
a corset type top and was covered by rhinestones, and the sleeves were
transparent andstopped at the elbow and flared. She was truly an angel
as she walked towards him, she had a glow to her, she made him feel they
way no other woman had ever made him feel. He could feel his knees start
to go weak but he steadied himself. Last thing he needed was to collapse
at his own wedding.
Joanna walked up the steps into her soon to
be husband's arms. She smiled at him and then looked over at Michiru who
gave her a wink that told her to go for it.
Both Joanna and Damion looked up at the priest
as he began the sermon that would lead to their being united as one, to
spend all of eternity together.
"Dearly beloved we are gathered her today
to join these two in holy matrimony. If anyone has any objections let them
speak now or forever hold their peace."
Yaten and Taiki looked menacingly over at
Seiya, with a look that said screw this up for her and not only will you
have to worry about her but you'll have to worry about us. Seiya gulped
but said nothing.
"If there are no objections then we may continue.
Damion Matthew Shiva, do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded
wife, to have and to hold in sickness and in health, for rich or for poor,
for better for worse, and forsaking all others? Say I do."
"I do." he said squeezing Joanna's hand and
smiling at her.
"Joanna Christine Shirley, do you take this
man to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold in sickness
and in health, for rich or for poor, for better for worse, and forsaking
all others? Say I do."
"I do."
"Then by the power vested in this church and
by the power vested in me I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may
now kiss the bride."
Damion grinned as he turned to face his beautiful
new wife; he took her in his arms and kissed her passionately letting his
soul flow from his lips to hers.
That afternoon at the wedding reception Joanna
and Damion and everyone else there was having a blast, Makoto had done
all the cooking, she was now a famous chef and she insisted that it was
the least that she could do for two of her best friends.
"Mako-chan that food was wonderful!" exclaimed
Joanna.
"Oh it was nothing, just some old recipes
that I dug out an old cookbook."
"Stop being so modest Makoto, you're a great
cook, just admit it." said Damion.
"Okay, okay I'm a good cook, get off my back
guys."
"Hey isn't it about time for your first dance
as husband and wife?" asked Minako getting all starry eyed.
"Yeah, in a few minutes." said Damion holding
Joanna close to him.
"What song did you guys pick out?" asked Ami.
"We didn't, we left it up to Seiya, Yaten
and Taiki." said Joanna. "I mean we really don't have a song like Mamoru
and Usagi had."
"True, I wonder what song they picked." said
Setsuna.
"Who knows with those guys." said Haruka.
Just then the lights went dim and The Three
Lights walked onto stage. "It's time for Joanna and Damion Shiva's first
dance as husband and wife." said Taiki smiling.
The next thing that Joanna and Damion knew
they were standing in the middle of the room with a disco ball slowly turning
overtop of their heads. The room was dark except for the small sparkles
of light that went round the room.
"The song that we are going to sing for you
two tonight is called "This I Promise You". We picked this song cause as
soon as we heard it we thought of you two."
The music began to play and Damion wrapped
his arms around his beautiful new wife and pulled her close as they started
to dance. All he could focus on was her.
Joanna laid her head down softly on Damion's
shoulder as she moved with him. All she could concentrate on was this moment
just being with him.
They seemed to meld as one in a beautiful
moment in time.
Ooh, ooh
When the visions around you
Bring tears to your eyes
And all that surrounds you
Are secrets and lies
I'll be your strength
I'll give you hope
Keeping your faith when it's gone
The one you should call
When standing here all alone
Joanna closed her eyes and saw the many battles that she and Damion had fought in together. He was always there giving her strength.
And I will take you in my arms
And hold you right where you belong
Until the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you
I've loved you forever
In lifetimes before
And I promise you never
Will you hurt anymore
I give you my word
I give you my heart
This is a battle we've won
And with this vow
Forever has now begun
Visions of the Silver Millenium began to float into their heads and then pictures of what was to come in Crystal Tokyo.
Just close your eyes each loving day
And know this feeling won't go away
Till the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you
Over and over I thought
When I hear you call
Without you in my life baby
I just wouldn't be living at all
And I will take you in my arms
And hold you right where you belong
Until the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you
Just close your eyes each loving day
And know this feeling won't go away
Till the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you
Every word I say is true
This I promise you
Ooh I promise you
"All this I promise you and more." Whispered
Damion softly to Joanna.
The audience broke out applauding as the song ended
and Joanna and Damion stopped dancing and looked at each other and kissed
passionately with every fiber of their beings. There was even hoots and
hollers from the other senshi standing around, but they didn't care all
they cared about was that they were finally together for all of time.
Just then the doors to the room opened and
everyone's eyes turned to the beautiful white haired woman that entered
the room and a glorious shimmering white gown.
"Mother!" yelled Usagi running over to her
mother, Queen Serenity.
"My queen." said Setsuna bowing before her.
"Please get up Setsuna." said Serenity. She
looked over at Joanna and Damion who were holding onto each other looking
over at her. "Oh Joanna, your mother and father would be so proud of you."
she said stroking Joanna's cheek.
"What are you talking about, we are right
here and we are very proud of her." said Mr. Shirley.
Queen Serenity just smiled at Mr. Shirley
and looked at all of the senshi. "I think that it is time now for the truth
to come out." The senshi nodded in agreement.
Joanna walked over to her speechless mother
and father. "Mom, Dad, you have raised me in this lifetime but, there was
a time ago a long time ago, during the Silver Millenium, when the Moon
ruled peacefully that I had another family. I am Princess Twilla, Princess
of the Universe. I am also Sailor Universe. I fight to protect this planet
from evil. Please understand, this is not easy for me to tell you."
"Sure honey, your just a little dillusional.
This is a big day for you." said her mother.
"MOTHER! Stop pretending that I am a little
girl who has no idea what I do. If you do not believe what I tell you maybe
you will believe what I show you. UNIVERSE ETERNAL POWER!!! MAKE-UP!!!!!!!!"
Sailor Universe looked back at her mother and father. "Do you believe me
now?"
"Joanna." said her mother and father hugging
her.
"Mom, Dad." Joanna said hugging her mother
and father back.
There were scenes like this all over the room
at this moment. Ami and her mom, Usagi and her family and friends, Damion
and his parents, Michiru and her family, Haruka and hers, Minako and her
mother and father, everyone, revealing their identities, everyone that
is but The Three Lights, they still couldn't afford to reveal their identities,
society just wasn't ready.
Queen Serenity stood back with Luna and Artemis
looking at all her Moon children proudly. "Luna, Artemis, I am so proud
of them."
"As are we Serenity." replied Luna and Artemis.
Inside one of the rooms of the palace in Crystal
Tokyo Joanna was laying on a bed sweat pouring over her features.
"Okay Joanna on this next contraction I want
you to push." said Ami.
Joanna nodded and felt the next contraction
and pushed with all that she had in her squeezing Damion's hand for support.
"Good girl, just a little more and it'll be
over." said Ami.
"I can't. I'm too tired." said Joanna breathlessly.
Damion wiped his wife's forehead with a damp
cloth and squeezed her hand lightly giving her encouragement when the contraction
was over.
"Come on Joanna, I need you too push, give
it all you got on this next contraction." said Ami looking up at Joanna.
"You're doing great, Joanna just keep it up." she added smiling.
Joanna felt the next contraction come and
pushed with all her might. She collapsed onto the pillow as the contraction
ended and she heard a baby's cry.
"Congratulations you two, you have a new baby
girl." said Ami wrapping her in a towel and handing her to Joanna. "What
are you going to name her?"
Joanna looked down at the little face that
peered up at her and looked over at Damion. "Mia. Mia Vanessa Shiva." said
Joanna smiling up at Ami.
Amy looked at the three of them. Damion was
going to make a great dad. Joanna a great mom.
Damion was looking down lovingly at his wife
and daughter as if nothing not even life itself could top this moment.
Although they had been the last to get married they were the first to have
a child. Amy thought to the next family to be blessed with a child, Ken
and Makoto. Makoto should be due any day now. She walked quietly out of
the room and down to where all of the scouts sat waiting for the news.
She looked over at Seiya, who was it seemed the most worried, he had subbed
for Damion at some of the Lamaze classes when he couldn't be there, and
he knew the risks involved in pregnancy. She quietly coughed to get everyone's
attention. They all jumped at the sound.
Seiya looked over at Ami, still some blood
on her robe and hands that she was in the process of wiping off. "Is Joanna,
the baby, are they ok?" he asked hurriedly.
Ami laughed. "They're fine. I just came out
here to let you know everything went perfectly, and to announce the birth
of Mia Vanessa Shiva." she said smiling proudly as if she were the new
mother herself. Ami looked down at her small swell of her stomach, she
had just found out a few days ago that she was pregnant. She still had
yet to tell the rest of the senshi though.
"Can we go in a see them?" asked Michiru.
"Yes, you may, come on I'll show you in there."
said Ami gesturing for them all to stand up.
Damion looked down at his daughter. Joanna
had quickly drifted off to sleep from exertion. "Welcome to the world Mia.
I'm gonna try to be the best father that I can be to you. Lord knows that
I'm bound to screw up now and then. I just hope that you're willing to
forgive me when I do and remember that I am only human. You have your mother's
eyes. You're going to be beautiful just like her, I know it. I love you
little Mia.
"That was beautiful honey." said Joanna looking
up from where she was laying.
"I didn't know you were awake."
Joanna just smiled. "You'll be a great dad
I know you will."
"Just as I know that you will be a great mom."
Damion leaned over and kissed her gently.
"Can we come in?" gently asked Ami knocking
softly on the door.
"Come on in Ami, I'm guessing that you brought
the rest of the group with you too?" said Damion.
"Sure did." said Ami smiling.
"Guys, I want you to meet Mia." said Joanna
undoing the top of the blanket that Mia was wrapped in.
"She has your eyes." said Seiya smiling at
Joanna.
"Thanks." said Joanna tiredly, but managing
a weak smile.
"Joanna and I discussed it and well, it was
a hard decision for both of us to make." said Damion. "But we had to choose
one of you, but Chronus, Setsuna will you guys be Mia's godparents?"
"Of course!" said both Setsuna and Chronus
at the same time.
"Come on guys, let's let Joanna and Mia sleep,
they need their rest, and no doubt Damion's hand needs some rest too."
said Ami flashing Damion a smile.
Everyone quickly agreed and walked out of
the door and Ami looked back in the room before closing the door, Joanna
had already drifted off to sleep, Damion had put Mia back in her crib,
and she had quickly fallen asleep and he was now sleeping in a chair next
to Joanna's bed.
"Sweet dreams guys." said Ami turning out
the lights. The only light that entered the room now was from the Moon
coming in the big bay window watching over the new family.
The End
