Chapter 13. Finale....
=======================================
Once, not so very long ago... There was a Noble Prince with a kind heart and alot of determination. He was a skillful fighters and only fought for peace. In his world appeared a great evil from the distroied and unheard past. That evil was the devil himself that great Knights had once tried to elimate. But since the deed was unfinished, the world of the present was slowly being converted by the evil. The spirits of the Knights, Prietesses, Queen and King killed possessed the bodies of their reincarnated forms. They slowly appeared to the prince and guided him just as he guided them as well. But the Prince's mother has become the devil's eternal slave from the past. Once he found this out, he, the Knights, and the Priestesses made an attempt to elimate this evil once more. But all the Knights and Priestesses died trying to rescue the Queen. The Prince found the evil one and tried to fight him off. The evil gave up, but presented the Prince with a challenge that seemed impossible to beat. But with the help of the spirits of the Prietesses and Dios, the Prince vanquished the evil spirits that has possessed his mother's body. But, a scene layed before him. A scene of horror... he watches as his mother's body fell to the floor and felt his heart sink as well.
"Mother..." Utena watched from above as she saw her mother slowly fall to the now crummbling arena below. A flashback filled her head.
*"My name is Rei Tenjou," She smiles warmly, her golden hair seeming to shimmer. "It is very nice to meet you all."
One girl raises her hand. "Are you Utena's sister?!"
Rei blinks. "Who?"
The girl points to Utena. "Her! She's Utena Tenjou!"
Rei looks over to her and smiles. "Hello Miss Tenjou, How strange it is we have the same last names."*
Utena closes her eyes. "I..."
*Rei appears in the floating castle."My little princess... I swore I'd come back to you.. and I kept that promise... forever... I did... even if I had to be reborn to do so." She smiles softly.
Utena with out thinking twice runs to Rei and embraces her in a loving hug, crying. "Mother! Oh, mother I thought you'd never come back to me!"*
Utena feels tears well up. "I killed..."
*Utena looks to the door and sees Rei standing there, she smiles brightly. She let's her in. "Hello Mo- Ack, I mean Rei-chan." She nervously sweatdrops. "I'm so sorry, I forgot I'm not suppose to say that at school."
Rei smiles warmly and reassuringly. "It's alright Utena. We all make mistakes." *
Utena feels the tears stream down her face. "I killed my own..."
*Utena looks at Anshi and sighs, she sits down and eats a rice ball. "It's just strange... Two new transfer students come and take two student counsil members. Then Miki and Kimu turns out to be these Warriors and Princesses. It's all so strange."
Rei giggles softly out of no where and appears in front of them. "I think you mean Knight and Priestess."
Utena looks up. "Rei-mama? Where on Earth did you come from? And how do you know about them being so?"
Rei sits down by Utena. "Simple, One; I just came from my extended class, two; I'm the Queen who they protected long ago, so I suppose I sould know."
Utena looks at her and sighs. "It's still confusing."*
Utena cries out. "I KILLED MY OWN MOTHER!" She quickly like lightning shoots out towards her falling mother. "Hang tight mother!" Everything around them begins to fall, but the mutilated Priestesses seemed to off disappeared. She flies as quickly as she can as the color of the area around them seems to change. Utena's wings then disappear and she hardly notices. She just keeps heading towards her mother. She then catches her mother and hers closely as they seem to fall into the nothingness. She looks at the wound she made on her mother, tears still streaming down her face. "I'm so sorry Mother... I'm so so sorry... I'm such a horrible person... to kill my own mother who fought until the end for me to survive..." She closes her eyes.
Slowly Rei's eyes open, them being warm and filled with love like away. She coughs slightly. "You... didn't kill me Utena... you only killed the evilness that controled me..."
Utena's eyes widen. "Mother! You're alive!"
The area around them slowly begins to fade away and they begin to fade as well. They all fade.
"Utena...."
Utena opens her eyes slowly to see herself standing up in her Princess outfit, her mother standing in front of her. They are both surrounded by white light. "Faia-mama? What are we doing here...?"
Faia smiles softly. "My darling daughter... it's time... I finally departed..."
Utena's eyes widen in todally shock of what she said. "What?! Mother?! Please tell me your just joking, right?"
Faia sighs and walks up closer to her, placing her hands on her shoulders. "Utena... please... try to understand... I was never truely alive. I was just an illusion that Lucifer made look and feel real."
Utena's eyes waver with tears. "But... I need you... Touga needs you..."
Faia laughs softly as Karibi appears a bit behide Rei. "My little Princess... Touga needs you... not me. Who needs me.... is Karibi...."
Confusion fills Utena's eyes. "But... isn't Karibi, Touga?"
Faia shakes her head softly. "No... Karibi is Touga's past self... and the man I love. Touga is not..." She places her hands on Utena's cheeks. "Right now... you need Touga and... Touga needs you..."
Utena shakes her head. "What? I don't understand... what are you talking about?"
Faia sighs and smiles softly. "You will understand one day... But for now Utena... My Loyal subjects, my dearest loves and myself must finally rest in peace." She slowly backs away to Karibi. The Priestesses and their Knights appear beside the Queen and the King.
There is a questioning look on Utena's face.
Shizuku steps forward a bit. "Princess... thank you... for releasing us finally." She bows down to her.
Chi steps forward as well. "Yes... thank you so much..." She bows down beside Shizuku.
Hokufuu steps after Chi. "Princess... it's been wonderful getting to know you finally... and getting to experience what it is to be alive again..." She bows down to her.
Mizu steps by Kimu. "Maybe someday...Princess... we'll meet again..." He bows down.
Kadorui steps by Chi. "Yes... maybe someday we'll come back to your world... maybe..." He bows down as well.
Kaze steps by Hokufuu. "We would be honored to meet your strong and elegent presence once again Purinsesu-sama...." She bows down.
Karibi looks over to Utena. He steps up close to her. "Daughter... maybe one day... you'll forgive me for not saving your mother sooner... and being able to save you from this destiny, but to the destiny of a Princess."
Utena shakes her head and smiles. "I forgive you... and... for the most... I don't mind this destiny. Thank you... all of you... For letting me see my past once again."
Faia's eyes start to fill with tears. "Shu-ko... no.... Utena-sama... I wish you luck... may you find happiness." Tears slowly run down her face...
Karibi backs up to Faia as he embraces her a bit. "Yes... be good my daughter... we will be watching you."
The Priestesses and Knights stand back up.
Utena nods her head and smiles brightly. "I promise you mother and father, I'll make you proud of me!"
Then... all the priestesses... all the knights... the king... and the queen slowly fade away.
Utena watches them fade away. Once they finally do, she thinks to herself. 'Maybe they will come back... until then... I guess... I'll just have to wing it.' She starts to back away and everything fades away into nothingness.
Light shines into the room in Utena's dorm.
Utena slowly sits up out of her bed and yawns. "Wha...?" She looks around and blinks. "Only... a dream??" She thinks deeply to herself. "Was it just a dream.. a terribly long dream...??" She stands up, get's dressed and walks down stairs. She sees Anshi and smiles. "Good morning Anshi!"
Anshi looks at her and smiles warmly. "Good Morning Utena."
Utena blinks. "Anshi...? Did... did you just not call me Miss Utena?!"
Anshi blinks. "Yes, why?"
Utena smiles warmly and hugs her. "Oh Anshi! You finally stopped calling me Miss Utena! I'm so happy!"
Anshi giggles softly. "Breakfast is ready if you want it Utena-chan."
Utena nods her head. "Thanks Anshi" She happily walks to the table and looks at the breakfast set before her. She eats it also quite happily. After she finishes she grabs her bag and looks at Anshi. "Come on Anshi or we'll be late!"
Anshi smiles and walks after her. "Coming Utena-chan!"
They walk to school, the day seeming sunny and beautiful.
Utena looks at Anshi. "You know Anshi, I had such a strange dream last night!"
Anshi looks at her. "What do you mean Utena-chan?"
Utena looks up at the sky while walking. "Well... I dreamt my mother came back to life and all this Priestesses and Knights started showing up and-"
The bell rings loudly, cutting her off.
Utena panics. "Oh my gosh! We're going to be so late!!" She runs, carrying Anshi on her back since Anshi couldn't keep up.
All the students seem to be moving towards the Auditorium though.
Utena blinks. "Hey! Where's everyone going?!"
Wakaba sees her and runs over to her. "Utena! Utena! There's going to be like a bus-load of new students coming here! Hurry! Come quick!"
Utena let's Anshi down and follows Wakaba.
They all sit down and the Principal comes up to the microphone.
"Students! Please! Quiet down! I would like to introduce 4 new transfer students!"
Utena suddenly thinks about that dream about. 'No... way... it's just a quinsidence.. isn't it?'
The Principal turns towards them. "Girls, please, introduce yourselfs."
A girl with medium-lenthed, golden-red hair walks up the to microphone and smiles. "My name is Kimu Kaiou!" She looks back at Shalon and smiles.
Shalon comes up beside her. "And I'm Shalon Hino! We're both best friends and love to Draw and Write!"
They both smiles kawaiily and make peace signs.
All the guys in the Auditorium seemed entranced by their cuteness.
Utena panics. 'KIMU!? SHALON?! WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON!?'
Another girl walks up with long black hair and smiles. "My name is Yoru Hoshino and I'm also friends with Kimu and Shalon!" She joins in with the group, looking younger than any secratary.
But it was who came next that changed everything.
Utena's eyes widen.
A beautiful young girl it golden-blonde hair that wasn't in the same style of Utena's, but in a ponytail walks up to the mic. She smiles, her emerald eyes shimmering. "Konnichwa everyone! My name is Rei Tsukiakari! My name means 'Soul of Moonlight'! I'm very happy to meet all of you!" She looks at Utena and smiles warmly. "Very happy indeed."
Kimu smiles warmly at Miki.
Shalon smiles brightly at Saionji.
Yoru smiles softly at Juri.
"Round and round the rose petal goes," Girl A
"Where it'll stop," Girl B
"Nobody knows." Girl A
"Will it stop there?" Girl B
"Or will it stop here?" Girl A
"It might stop anywhere!." Girl B
"But one thing's for sure," Girl A
"And that we won't deny!" Girl B
"A sequel is at hand!" Girl A
"And so let the reviews fly!" Girl B
A girl looking remarkably like Kimu let's out a sigh of relief. "Finally. The story's done." She stands up from her computer and let's out a laugh of victory. "I'm such a poet and I didn't even know it! I make it rhyme, everytime!" She smiles and brushes back her hair. "I'm not so sure about the sequel though.... ONLY IF I GET ALOT OF GOOD REVIEWS! Which reminds me, and I'm going to have to delete this and reput it up so new people can read it." She sighs. "Oh well" She then plops back down, when her phone annoyingly rings. "Omg... DANG PHONE!" She stands up and pick up the phone. "Hello?"
"HI KIMMY!" The familar sound of Shalon is heard, exsept different this time.
The girl who looks like Kimu sweatdrops. "Yes, Hi Sharon."
"Are you done with your story yet?" Sharon asks.
Kimmy sits down on her leather couch. "Yeah, I just got through the finale."
"Great!" Sharon smiles brightly over the phone. "Now maybe you can type out all my stories! You know, the ones with me and Akio and Saionji and Touga!"
Kimmy anime falls. "No way! I'm not going to read them over, they're too long."
"But Kimmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy!" Shalon whines
Kimmy sweatdrops. "Fine... But only just this once. Hopefully I get good reviews for my story so I can write a sequel."
"What will the sequel be about?" Sharon asks.
Kimmy smiles. "It'll be about where I left about. Hey, I gtg. Gomen Nasai."
Shalon groans. "Oh....ok... fine... see ya Kimmy!" She hangs up.
Kimmy hangs up too. "What I need right now is a few cups of Earl Gray mixed with other herbs type of tea." She walks off towards her kitchen and everything fades.
