Secrets Reveled

Authors Note: I know I said last time that there would only be two more chapters but I thought that since this was the last story in my Battling The Negaverse Trilogy that I would answer some of the questions that I have had about Sailor Moon since I started watching it.

Since the day that Princess Serenity had attacked them, the Scouts had walked around in a daze, Reenie was still staying with Darien but had not said a word since Serena had disappeared all she had really been doing is sleeping. Reenie lay in Darien's big bed and slept fretfully. She dreamed she was walking the halls of the Crystal Moon Kingdom she walked in to the throne room and saw two women one had silvery blond hair done in two meatballs on the top of her head and wore a gown of white with silver shoot through. The other had pink hair done in to two pointed meatballs she was also wearing a white dress but with gold shot through it, Reenie recognized the woman as an older version of herself. The two women turn as one and their eyes land on Reenie, Queen Serenity steps forward "Reenie you are here at last."

Reenie looks around "Where am I?"

The other woman walks toward her and stops when they are a foot away from each other "You are in the Crystal Moon Kingdom and I am Imperial Queen Serenity." Their had been a coldness to the voice that had Reenie stepping back "Why am I here?" She directs that question to Queen Serenity.

"Oh my dear Granddaughter we have transcended time to bring you here to show what you will create in the future and also to show you what will happen if you do not join in the efforts to save your mother from the darkness." Queen Serenity waved her hand and around them the once beautiful throne room was now a crumbled mess, Queen Serenity waved her hand again and they were standing in what had been the ballroom of Crystal Tokyo. As Reenie looked around the scene shifted again and they were standing in Tokyo garden and Reenie saw the bodies of the scouts lifeless and cold. Then the scene shifted a final time and they were back in the throne room of the Crystal Moon Kingdom "Granddaughter you have seen a glimpse of the future without your mother. Will you now fight?"

Imperial Queen Serenity could be quite no longer "Grandmother how can you give her a choice like that?"

"Hush you were given the same choice not so long ago, you stood where she is standing now. She has a right to decide if she wants to fight." They turn to Reenie waiting for her answer.

Reenie stood still and thought of everything she had seen, the destruction of everything and everyone she loved she turned to her grandmother and her future self "I have made my decision. As much as I am tired of fighting I can not let what I saw happen, my mother always had a fond wish and it was that I would be the kind of ruler her mother was. I realize that if things are not corrected then none of this will be here and neither will I. So I will fight." With those words she was gone, Queen Serenity turns to her granddaughter "I told you she would make the right choice, child you must always remember that you stand where she must someday stand and confront her younger self."

Desdemona is sitting in her throne thinking of her past and the things that Queen Serenity neglected to tell her daughter. And of some of the things that the Queen could have done to save herself. But she shakes those thoughts away and stands to go see how the Princess is doing. She walks out to a room that is across from the throne room, she opens the door and sees Princess Serenity staring out at the moon, she slowly closes the door and goes to her own chambers. Desdemona sits by the window and stares at the moon. She lets it take her back to a simpler time when all was peaceful. She was but a five-year-old girl living with her mother, aunt and cousin. She has tried hard to keep those memories away but it seems that they were hell bent on making her remember things that were better left forgotten. She was sitting in the garden smelling the roses, thinking about her art when a little voice brought her out of her thoughts "Cousin Desdemona; won't you play with me?"

Desdemona looked down at the small blond haired girl and smiled "I would love to play with you Cousin Serenity. What shall we play?" A large shadow loomed over them. Desdemona turned and saw the imposing figure of her mother standing there and shrank back but Serenity in her innocence looked at her aunt and smiled "Aunt Beryl, do you want to play with me and Desdemona?"

"No, Princess I do not want to play and Desdemona doesn't have time. She has her lessons to complete." Beryl looked at her daughter and Desdemona hung her head and walked off toward the palace.

"Beryl," said a voice behind her, "you could have left Desdemona play for a little while."

Beryl turned around "Dear sister Serenity please do not tell me how to raise my daughter." and she walked off. Serenity shook her head and looked down at her crestfallen daughter and called her by her nickname "Serena darling would you like to play with me?"

"Mommy why wouldn't Aunt Beryl let Desdemona play?"

"I do not know sweetie. Your Aunt Beryl was a very Serious child when she was younger and maybe she wants your cousin to be like that too. Come along dear and lets get ready for dinner."

Desdemona shook her head and tried to fight the memories that had been forcing her to remember and at this time she wish had the luxury of not knowing her whole past like her cousin. She turned back towards the Moon and this time she was in the throne room and it was several years later. Her mother is sitting in a straight back chair facing the throne and Queen Serenity.

"Beryl, Princess Royal of the Moon and Queen of the Sun for your act of treason, namely the assassination attempt on Serenity, the Princess of the Moon and it's future ruler, I have no choice but to strip you of your title and banish you to earth." Queen Serenity then turned to me, "Desdemona, Princess of the Sun and it's future ruler for your act of treason, namely assisting Beryl in the assassination attempts. I have no choice but to banish you and as is my right as the temporary ruler of the sun to strip you of your title and send you to earth. Where you will live the remainder of your days away from this kingdom." The Queen by this time was fighting tears, she turned away and spoke to a guard "Take them away now," she turned back towards her sister and neice, "I want you to know how deeply it pains me to do this. Beryl I never really Knew how far your hatred of me went but to attack a little girl and Desdemona, I know you want to make your mother proud of you but I thought you had more honor than that." she turned away once more so she didn't have to watch.

"Serenity this isn't over, I will return and when I do I'll not only have your brat but see this place destroyed." A knock on the door brought Desdemona out of her thoughts "enter."

Jade walks through the door "My Queen it is time."

Desdemona stands and leaves the room. At last it was the day of destiny
