Thank you for all the reviews. Sorry I took so long to get this part up but I've been busy with homework. I still have a lot of homework to do but I don't want to do it right now. ^^;; I'm bad I know. Remember where still in the flashback thing!

Sailor Saturn ran down the halls as fast as she could. Heero, Trowa, Quatre and Wufei where also with her. They stopped at Duo's room. She pounded on Duo's door praying he was in there.

"Duo open up it's me Saturn!" Saturn yelled. There was no answer. Saturn growled as she stepped back and gripped her glaive tightly in her hands.

"Stand back." Saturn ordered. The others did as she said. Then Saturn swung her glaive the blade easily cutting through the door with ease. The door fell to the ground in two pieces. Saturn walked into the room stepping over the broken door.

"Duo?" Saturn asked only to find Duo wasn't in here. She cursed and ran out of the room ignoring the others as they followed her.

"Where can he be?" Quatre asked.

"I don't know." Trowa said replying his friend. Then they turned around another corner and saw the doors to the throne room.

"He better be there!" Wufei snapped. Saturn opened the doors and they ran into the room.

"Duo? Are you here?" Saturn asked. She felt something wrong. Then she saw someone sitting on the throne. The sailor senshi frowned, that wasn't Duo.

"That's not Duo." Saturn whispered stepping back. Heero pulled out his sword pointing it at the figure.

"Who are you?" Heero demanded. A laughed echoed the room. Saturn hissed in anger as she glared at the figure on the throne.

"Watch out!" Quatre yelled. Saturn looked and saw black lighting heading towards them. Acting quickly Saturn held her glaive in front of them.

"Silent Wall!" An invisible wall formed blocking the attack. The figure laughed again this time looking up. Her long black hair curved her face and golden yellow eyes.

"Moraga," Saturn hissed. The evil women laughed.

"Hello, little Saturn." She said with a smirk. Saturn held her glaive out her senses in full alert.

"Shouldn't you be guarding Shinigami? I mean, anyone could be attacking him by now. Since the kingdom is under attack. like.." Moraga trailed off. Saturn glared at the women then realized that wasn't the real Moraga, it was a fake. An illusion.

"Watch out!" Saturn shouted. She held up her glaive deflecting an upcoming attack. The fake Moraga laughed. Saturn growled in anger. Then Heero touched her shoulder. She looked at him.

"Go find Duo, well handle this." Heero said. Saturn was about to protest but Heero stopped her.

"Our duty is to protect the kingdom. Yours is to protect Duo. Now go." Heero ordered. Saturn nodded and quickly ran off. She heard a sharp whistle and the high shrill neigh from Zero. Saturn closed her eyes and continued running hopping she would find Duo in time.

Duo urged Deathscythe to run faster. He went out not able to sleep to visit Deathscythe. Soon he saw flames coming from the kingdom. As quickly as he could hopped on Deathscythe racing towards the kingdom.

Out of nowhere something exploded knocking Duo off his horse. He heard Deathscythe shrill neigh as he feel to the ground. Duo grunted as he fell on the ground. He painfully got up on his feet looking around. He saw Deathscythe already up on his feet. Then he heard someone laughing at him.

He looked and saw Moraga. She walked towards him taking her time. Her golden eyes laughed at him. Duo growled. He held out his hands and a gold and silver scythe appeared in his hands. He stood in a fighting stance.

"Oh I don't think so." Moraga said. She waved her hand and before Duo could do anything his scythe flew out of his hands disappearing in the night.

Then Duo felt something grab his him, dragging him towards the evil witch. Duo struggled to get out of the grasp. Moraga laughed knowing he'll never be free.

"Where is the balance?" Moraga demanded.

"Not telling." Duo hissed.

"If you don't tell me now I'll kill you!" Moraga threatened. Duo smirked.

"You can't kill death." Duo said with a cheeky grin. Moraga yelled in anger as she threw him to the ground. She held up her hands firing at him.

"Silent Wall!"

The attack was deflected saving Duo. The two looked and saw Saturn holding her glaive out at Moraga. The witch saw her battle stance.

"You really think you would do it? The double-edged sword. The attack will destroy everything, including yourself and Shinigami." Moraga said with a mock.

"We shall see." Saturn said. Saturn held up her glaive, the blade turned white as white ribbons came out wrapping around Duo.

"Hotaru!" Duo yelled surprised not knowing what she is about to do. He didn't dare move.

"I shall find you again." Saturn said.

Duo blinked then realized what she is about to do. She was sending him somewhere else, to be reborn.

"Hotaru no!" Duo cried as he struggled to break free from the ribbons. But it was to late. He started to disappear. He looked and saw Hotaru, Sailor Saturn. She held up the glaive high in the air then.

"Death Ribbon Revolution!" Saturn shouted. Then she slammed the glaive down towards the ground. Everything a deadly silent as the glaive slammed onto the ground. Then black ribbons exploded from the glaive and everything around his was destroyed.

"Hotaru!" Duo yelled then everything disappeared.

Duo gasped as he was brought back into the real world. He looked around and saw him along with the other gundam pilots in the park. Once destroyed was now back to normal.

"I took me centauries to find you again." Hotaru said not in her sailor senshi form any more.

"What happened to the others?" Duo asked. Hotaru looked away.

"Destroyed, I thought I destroyed Moraga to, but it seems I only ended up sealing her away. The seal is breaking and she is growing stronger. That is why I came here as quickly as I could." Hotaru said.

Then out of nowhere Deathscythe came galloping towards them. Hotaru giggled as she petted the horse.

"Come, we have to take him to a stables somewhere." Hotaru said. Duo nodded. He looked back at his friends. Soon they agreed that the others will go back to Preventers headquarters while Duo and Hotaru take Deathscythe somewhere to stay.

Moraga stared at her crystal orb. She got up walking around.

"Shinigami remembers now. All because of that stupid…senshi!" Moraga shouted as she spitted the last word.

"Is there anything that even she fears herself?" Moraga demanded as she looked at the glass ball. Soon an image started to form. Moraga gasped as she saw who it was.

The eternal midnight black hair and dark violet eyes full of an evil glare, Mistress 9. Even she feared to the mistress who was so close to cause chaos. Shinigami himself avoided the dark evil that laid within the planet of Saturn. Then is came to her.

The spirit of Mistress 9 will always lay inside the senshi of Saturn. Asleep unless awaken by a pure energy. Moraga smiled as she thought of a new plan. The one person to destroy Shinigami was Saturn herself. The evil side of Saturn that everyone feared.

"Now all I need was someone with a pure heart." Moraga whispered. Then she saw whom. Who wouldn't be better to chose then Shinigami's best friend. She laughed as she quickly formed her new plan.

"Shinigami your time has ended." Moraga laughed.
