Where Angels Lose Their Way
Chapter 11
o8O-
The princess wakes up in the ruins of the Moon Kingdom, in front of the mirror. She remembers the other world she was just in and wonders what she is going to do next. Begin Princess.
------------------------------------
*I guess I had better go see them...* she thought to herself looking at her reflection in the mirror. She was still the Dark Princess. *I just hope that they feel the same way the others felt. I have to remember that these are the people I have so deeply wronged; and, I have to make it up to them.*
She dematerialized and materialized again in the temple shrine. After she carefully searched the temple, she didn't see anyone. She materialized again in the place she remembered to be Darien's apartment but no one was there either. Then she searched each of the other three scout's homes and they were nowhere to be found.
Out of desperation the Princess went to the site of their last battle where she had seen them last. The arcade was not looking so good. The walls were about to collapse and all the games inside were broken. The princess sat down at a booth that, surprisingly, was still standing. She let out a sigh of frustration and laid her head down on the table. *What if I'm too late?*
The princess lay there for a while when all of a sudden she heard voices coming from somewhere nearby. She searched the room trying to find the source of the voices. Finally, she saw light coming out of a crack in the floor, and on closer examination, she saw that it was a trap door.
Silently, she opened the door and descended into the passage. She entered a room with a computer and the two cats sitting on chairs and yelling into a headset. They were in great distress for some reason.
The princess cleared her throat and said: "Where are they?" The cats spun around quickly, looking as if they had seen a ghost. When neither of them spoke the princess yelled, "This is all my fault and I need to help them, please tell me where they are!"
Artemis finally getting over his shock and suspicion said: "We thought that Queen Beryl had gotten you again and wouldn't spare you, so they went to try and save you..." his voice cracked and he couldn't go on.
"They aren't doing very well... won't last much longer. They need your help," Luna finished for him.
The princess turned and started to leave when Luna stopped her. "Wait, Princess Serenity please take these, if you have truly come back to us then you will be able to use them." The cat opened her paw and gave the princess the seven rainbow crystals. "Good luck Princess," the cat said with tears in her eyes. "Please come back to us this time."
The princess disappeared.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, we now go all the way to Antarctica where the Sailor Scouts and Tuxedo Mask are fighting Queen Beryl. They are all on their last leg shooting their attacks at the Queen with no apparent results. Enter Princess.
---------------------------------------
The Queen had only been absorbing the attacks that the justice fighters had been flinging at her, and now she was ready with a huge energy ball to fling at them.
"Oh no! We won't be able to survive this blast!" Sailor Mercury cried.
"We have to do this, for the Princess!" Sailor Venus said.
Queen Beryl laughed and flung the ball at them screaming: "This is your end once again, and for the last time! You had no chance last time and you don't this time. You're through!" She flung the blast at them.
"NO!" The princess screamed as she entered the battle site shooting a counter blast to trough as much of the queen's energy ball off course as possible. She managed to get some of it away from them, but a majority of the ball still hit the five fighters causing them to be knocked to the floor, barely conscious. The princess stood in the path between the Queen and her friends.
"Stay out of my way you disgrace. I'll deal with you later; I no longer need you to spread darkness throughout the world."
"You won't hurt them anymore because of me. Your fight is with me, not them. I am here to avenge my mother and my kingdom!"
"Ha! Your kingdom? Last time I remember you left your kingdom and joined me! You're nothing with out me, I gave you your power and I can take it away!"
"I won't believe what you say anymore Beryl!"
With another burst of laughter the queen shot a ray of dark light at the princess, catching the princess by surprise. The ray knocked the princess down but she got up shakily and resumed her place protecting her friends.
"I must admit I did a good job training you!" She shot one ray after another at the princess causing her to be pushed backward each time, but the princess of darkness kept her footing. The queen was getting frustrated and gathered her energy for a final blow.
"...Serenity?" Tuxedo Mask said struggling to his feet and coming forward.
"Darien? Stay back please!" the princess cried.
When he saw that the queen was about to hurt the princess something in him snapped, "Serenity watch out!" He jumped in front of her taking the full blow from the blast and fell to the floor.
"Darien no!" the princess screamed kneeling on the floor next to him. "Why? Why did you do this? I'm so sorry!"
"Serenity..." he whispered barley being able to talk, "don't be sorry, I love you..." he said. He didn't speak again.
"DAIREN NOOOOO!" The princess wailed, "No no no no! I can't go on with out you," she said now in a whisper now pleading for him to come back.
*:: "JUST BELIEVE IN YOURSELF" ::* the voice of Serena filled her head.
She closed her eyes allowing a tear to fall down her cheek. The rainbow crystals in her pocket started to glow; they flew up into the air and disappeared into her tear forming the silver imperial crystal. The princess floated up into the air, her hair turned miraculously from red to gold, her dress from black to pure white, and when she opened her eyes they were sky blue and full of the love she'd been without for so long. She no longer felt empty inside; she was no longer alone, she felt everyone she had ever loved there with her.
"Wh... What's happening? You can't do this!" Queen Beryl shot another deadly ball at the Moon Princess, but the ball just bounced off the light surrounding her and disappeared.
The Moon Princess looked straight at Queen Beryl and holding the crystal between her hands she yelled: "Moon Crystal Power!"
"NO! Not this power again! AHHHHHHHH!" Queen Beryl's scream echoed through the halls of the Dark Kingdom as she was engulfed by the white light and vaporized.
The Moon Princess collapsed next to her love; she reached for his hand and held it.
"Princess Serenity..." The four scouts said climbing to their knees.
"My friends," she whispered, her strength fading fast.
They all nodded with tears in their eyes: "We'll always be your friends..."
The Moon princess's breaths were getting fainter and fainter. She turned to her love and with his image in her eyes she said: "Crystal, I wish that there never was a Princess of Darkness."
The bright light enveloped them all.
