As the sailor senshi began to use planet power, a dark fog released its grasp on Serenity, the fog forming over head of them all.
"No! I will not be defeated by the light!" the figure screeched, it's voice ringing throughout the palace waking the sleeping guests that had survived the cold attack on earth. The Senshi closed their eyes, so they did not see their princess rise from the floor and remove the silver crystal from her locket.
"Yes, the power of our light, is the power of our love! We will be victorious! You have tried to destroy me, by destroying my friends, but you have misjudged us, our love and friendship is what makes us strong!" Serenity said as she held the crystal up, it glowing from the power of all of the senshi and Endymion.
"You, are nothing but a weak child with a powerful toy," the fog said, it's dark trendils wrapping around her arms, as if drawing her into the darkness. She shut her eyes tight, and when she opened them again, a burst of pure white energy shot forth from the crystal, putting all of her power, her love, her hope, and all of her trust in her friends and her love, the crystal shaking slightly in her grasp as she did.
"I WILL NOT BE DEFEATED!" was the last thing the evil darkness could yell out before it was completely destroyed. They would soon find n the future who and what had sent this entity to destroy them now. The crystal dropped from her hands, but she never heard the smash of it, her body slumped back into the waiting arms of her prince.
"Are you alright love?" he asked her brushing the blond bangs from her hair.
"I will be, once I regain my strength…" she said catching her breath then turned to look at the senshi. Sailor Mars had caught the crystal before it had shattered into pieces on the ground.
"Here you go meatball head…" she said as she handed the crystal to the rightful owner.
"Serenity…we owe you, all of us" Neptune said, and all the other girls nodded in agreement.
"Yes, don't pretend you don't know, you were there…in all of our visions," Jupiter said as she helped Endymion pick her up.
"But I was…" she started to say, her eyes drifting shut.
"You saved us all Serenity," Saturn said and smiled up at her then looked to Pluto, Uranus, and Neptune, "didn't she?" she asked.
"Yes she did small one…she did" Pluto said as she placed a hand on Saturn's shoulder then smiled to her princess and soon to be queen. All the other girls smiled to her, and as best she could, she returned their loving smiles.
"I am so glad that I have such caring friends, thank you…all of you," she said, before drifting off into a peaceful sleep.
"Thank you for saving her Queen Serenity…" Luna whispered as she nudged the senshi and Atrimis out of the room. Before she left, she was sure she heard the voice of Queen Serenity, her dear old friend reply.
"You're welcome…keep her safe Luna."
