The Twilight Within
By Silver
Silver: You came back!!!
Mischana: You poor people, you've been sucked in by
Silver, haven't you?
Sara: *clonks Mischana on the head* He may be insane but
he's still my boyfriend!
Mischana: Sorry.
Silver: Enough.
Heero: Well, I think –
Silver: Don't even. Last time you thought out loud you got six people blasted.
Duo: *brushing his hair* I still can't get that hairspray
that Eclipse put in my hair out!
Eclipse: Hey, you are the one that brought it on yourself!
Duo: But super-duper-mega-ultra hold?
Eclipse: It keeps this short hair in place! *Touches his
rock hard, spiky hair*
Silver: RIiiiiiiiiiiiiIIIIght. Okay, well, it's the standard disclaimer.
Heero: He doesn't own anything but the plot. And Eclipse and Mischana, too if you want to
get technical.
Mischana: I'm not a slave….
Eclipse: Neither am I…
Silver: But I created both of you, so shut up. Now, enjoy chapter five! Oh yesh, and one more thing. That cussing I talked about in that
summary? Well, it begins in this
chapter.
~*~ Chapter Five: The New Senshi, Both of Them ~*~
Rinoa
walked carefully down the stairs. The
elevator was a smooth ride. She always
wondered how they did that. Even with
the advanced technology, most buildings couldn't even get a decent
elevator. She shrugged it of and began
to walk quickly around the Garden's pathway towards the dorms. She was in an extreme hurry.
She broke
into a run as she began to get even more worried. She looked up at the sky through the windows at the top of the
huge hallway. The top rooms of the
garden, such as the Headmaster's office, were inside a column like structure,
with windows surrounding it. The sky
was beginning to darken. She looked
around behind her and at the clock. 12:30, in the middle of the day.
Rinoa
opened the door to her dorm room. It
was quaint, but she enjoyed it, after her few little touchups. Rinoa went over to her dresser, and she
touched the button in the center of it. A passage to the Garden's MD level opened in the floor. She stepped down, pushed the button to close
the passage, and began to walk down. When she came to where the path widened around the stairs, she made a
pair of angel wings appear on her back, and rocketed down to the lowest
part.
"Thank
goodness, its still here," she said as she sat down in the chair. This was the room she had created for her
alone, the place where she kept the Empurium Starlight Crystal. The ground around her began to shake. "This can't be good," she said. Deciding to risk making a flashy entrance
somewhere, she created a small porthole and she stepped through it, emerging in
Cid's office, where Nida was beginning to move the Garden.
"What's
going on?" Rinoa asked. Cid pointed up
to the sky, and a huge meteor was heading right towards the Garden. "I see," Rinoa said. She lifted her hand and blasted the meteor
into dust. She began to leave. "Where are you going?" Cid asked. "Do you honestly think that was a
coincidence?" Rinoa asked. "Well, yes,"
Cid said. "Ultimecia's back, you know
that, right?" Rinoa said. She looked
back at Cid, who had frozen in place. "She's not alone, this time Cid, she has others with her." Cid began to regain his composure. "Still a coincidence?" she asked. Cid stood frozen. "I thought so."
The sky
turned completely black. Rinoa looked
up, and she took out a small cell phone. She dialed a number. "435-9602,"
Rinoa said to herself as she dialed. She put the phone to her ear, and Squall answered. "Hello?" Squall said on the other line. "Get outside here, now," Rinoa said. "Where are you?" he asked. "400 yards west of the Garden's current
position," she said as she closed her phone. Her timing was perfect.
The clouds
in the sky began to swirl together. The
formed a hole in the sky which 5 figures descended out of. They came down to about 15 feet off the
ground. "So good to see you well,
Rinoa," Ultimecia hissed. "Believe me,
the feeling isn't mutual," Rinoa growled. Squall came running out with Serenity easily keeping up with him. "You," Serenity said as she looked up. "What are you three doing alive?" Serenity
growled. "That would be my doing,"
Chaos said. Serenity looked away from
Beryl, Mettalia, and Wiseman to see Chaos. "Chaos," she said. "This is
ridiculous, I destroyed all four of you!" Serenity said. "Let me make it simple for you. Do you not remember me saying that wherever
evil is, there I will be?" Chaos said. "Unfortunately, I do recall that," Serenity said.
"We will
make this very simple," Beryl said as she floated to the ground. "Give us the Imperium Silver Crystal and the
Empurium Starlight Crystal and we will leave." "And if I refuse?" Serenity said, staring her in the face. "You wont like what happens to this
miserable planet," she said. "Beryl,"
Serenity began, staring at her sternly. "I destroyed you four once, and now you dare to challenge me again? I wont hesitate to blast you into oblivion a
second time." "Oh really?" Beryl
said. "Do you remember this?" Beryl
asked as she reached behind her back.
Beryl
pulled out the object. A pink handle on
it, with a golden Crescent Moon on the top of it. The Crescent Moon Want. "My wand?" Serenity asked, baffled. "After the little mishap we had at the north pole, Queen Serenity of the
past took the crystal and didn't realize she left the wand. She left it in the snow, only to be dug up
again by me." Beryl let it float into
the air. It flashed a light, and its
appearance was different, completely. The crescent moon was now created of black obsidian crystal and the
handle on it was now dark blue. The end
of it was made out of black obsidian, too, with a small piece of white crystal
in the bottom. The butterfly shape at
the top that held on the moon was now an upside down black moon. "Say hello to the Black Crescent Wand,"
Beryl said. She let her crystal ball's
stand disappear and her crystal ball shrunk until it was the size of the Silver
Crystal. She took the crystal between
her thumb and forefinger and placed it where the Silver Crystal once was on the
once brightly colored wand. "Ha, ha,
ha!" Beryl loudly laughed. "This is ten
times stronger then the original Silver Crystal/Crescent Moon wand," Beryl
commented as the crystal on it radiated a small amount of black energy. "I would give that back, if I were you,"
Serenity said, warning her. "And why
should I?" Beryl mused. "Rinoa, in this
world I would be the equivalent of an all-powerful sorceress, perhaps as
powerful as you," Serenity said. "That
said do you think I could tap into this world's energy belts and use
them?"
The energy
belts around the planet were the source of the Sorceress's powers. They were invisible belts of pure magical
energy, usable only by a sorceress, or a very uncommon sorcerer.
"I should
think so," Rinoa said. Serenity let a
smile creep across her face. "Lets show
her why," Serenity said, her smile changing to a devilish grin. She and Rinoa closed their eyes and began to
concentrate. Serenity took out the
Silver Crystal, and Rinoa took out the Starlight Crystal. The energy belts around the planet began to
feed energy into the two crystals. Rinoa and Serenity opened their eyes and slowly turned to face each
other. They held their crystals out and
they floated together. The two of them
then put their pals together, their fingers held straight up. The golden eight-pointed star appeared on
Rinoa's forehead and began to glow, and the crescent moon on Serenity's
forehead began to glow. Angel wings
appeared on both of their backs as they began to channel their energy into the
fused crystal. Suddenly, a voice began
to speak into their minds, and as the wind blew furiously around the area,
their consciousness left their bodies…
Night was
floating, shrouded in light as before. There was another person, a woman shrouded in light like Night. She had a robe on the fluttered around her
like Night's. "Night?" Serenity
asked. The whiteness of the place was
almost blinding. "Yes," Night
said. "Who are you?" Rinoa asked the
woman. "My name is Starr," she
said. "I am the spirit of the Starlight
Crystal, the source of its powers." "You two must become even more powerful to take on the four you are up
against this time," they said in unison. "Serenity," Night said. Her
Eternal transformation brooch appeared in front of her. It began to spin, and then span faster and
faster. Finally, a light flashed, and
the brooch was now a navy blue heart shape, with a golden rim around it and in
the center a golden crescent moon with a pearl inside its center. "Rinoa," Starr said. A column of light came down out of nowhere
and when it subsided a heart shaped brooch was there. It was red, with a pair of golden angel wings on a crescent moon's
sides, with a pearl in the center of the crescent moon. It, too was rimmed in gold. "Serenity, Rinoa, when you two must fight to
defend, transform together to become Sailor Cosmos and Sailor Polaris," Night
and Starr said together. They disappeared,
and Rinoa and Serenity's consciousness smacked back into their bodies.
The two
crystal's floated apart and Rinoa and Serenity stepped back, their hands
parting. Their two new brooches
appeared in their right hands, and the Starlight Crystal floated into Rinoa's
brooch, and the Silver Crystal floated into Serenity's brooch. "Shall we?" Rinoa asked, politely, bowing
like she was greeting someone in Japan. Serenity smirked. She said "Let's," and bowed like she too was greeting
someone in Japan. They raised their
brooches. "Cosmos!" Serenity shouted,
then Rinoa shouted, "Polaris!" then both of them shouted, "Power! Make up!" The tops of the brooches floated off, revealing their respective
crystals. They charged their powers for
a few seconds, and then let it loose in a bright flash of light. Much like Serena and Rini did before, the
two of them transformed. Only Serenity
transformed with Silver ribbons and the ribbons that encircled Rinoa were sky
blue. When they were finished, it was
almost the standard Sailor uniform, with differences. They both had silver angel wings. Their outfit's main color was now navy blue instead of white, and
their gloves and boots were black. Rinoa had eight-pointed stars on the tips of her boots, much like
Serena's crescent moons. On their
foreheads instead of tiaras was an upturned golden crescent moons with a golden
eight pointed star in the empty middle part of it. Serena's hair was like it normally was, in two odangos, only the
two jewels were now pearls. Rinoa's
hair was normal, but she had a silver colored rose behind her right ear. On Rinoa's ears were golden eight-pointed
star earrings, and on Serena's ears were the same golden crescent moon
earrings.
"What in
the?!" Raye asked, stunned as she and the other senshi ran up. "Well," Sailor Cosmos said, "Are you guys
just gonna stand there?" she asked. Rinoa turned around. "I'm
pretty knew to this, but hey, what the
heck? Transform you guys!" she said as
she turned back to Beryl. "Okay,"
Serena said. "Your last chance Beryl,"
Serenity said. "Give us the wand,"
Rinoa said. "Ha," Beryl said. She held it in both hands and used it to
blast them with black energy, much like how she tried to destroy them
before. Cosmos and Polaris just stood
as the energy hit them, not even fazing them. "That was pitiful," Sailor Polaris said. "You should learn how to use that wand," Cosmos said. "Let's show her what WE can do," Cosmos
said. Tiny balls of silver and golden
light began to rush around the two of them. That light flew into a huge ball, pulsating with the two colors of
energy. They shouted, "Cosmic Starlight
Wind Storm!" they shouted as wind began to fly at Beryl in all directions,
freezing her in place as the energy ball flew at her and smashed into her. The Black Crescent Wand went flying. Cosmos took off after it, and grabbed it. It flashed and once again became the
Crescent Moon Wand, and then Beryl's crystal flew back into Beryl, damaging her
even more and then became its normal size. The stand reappeared below it and then it floated into an upright
position again, and then Beryl leaned on it to get back up. "This……isn't……over…" Beryl said as she
floated back up into the hole in the clouds. "Ha," Chaos said. The other
three floated back up.
** ** **
"WHAT THE
HELL WAS THAT?!" Chaos yelled at Beryl. "Your fucking plan screwed up, just like all your other damn plans did,"
Chaos said. "Chill, Chaos," Ultimecia
said. Chaos was sitting on a throne on
a platform, it all looked exactly like Beryl's did in the Negaverse. Ultimecia walked up to the stairs. "And just WHAT do you mean by that?" Chaos
asked. "It was YOUR idea to go and get
the fucking wand in the first place," Beryl growled. "And your point?" Chaos asked. "You still failed," he said. "Fuck you," Beryl said. Chaos
sent a blast flying at her, and she turned and blocked it. Suddenly, something began to happen to
Beryl. A golden crescent moon appeared
on her forehead, and she began to clutch her chest, dropping her crystal. It shattered into nothing, and the stand
disappeared. A black entity came up out
of her. "My possession is being
expelled from her body?! HOW?!" Chaos
asked himself as she changed into the beautiful, good woman she was before
Chaos put evil energy in her. Her dress
was white, much like Serena's princess gown was. In fact, it was exactly like it. On her forehead was a golden crescent moon, and her long red hair flowed
around her. Her eyes were now like a
normal person's, and her earrings were now normal golden circles with tiny
sapphires in them. "Thank goodness,"
Beryl said, her voice echoing lightly, and she became shrouded in light. "I'm me again," she said. Her voice was now gentle and contained no
evil whatsoever. She disappeared.
