:::Curtain Closes:::
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The first thing Usagi felt when she woke up was all consuming pain. From her head to her shoulders, to her waist to her feet. The second thing she felt was there was another pair of lips on her own.
Gohan....?
But the lips were too cold and dry....
She opened her eyes, not to see the eyes of ebony that she loved, but the ones of midnight that she despised with every bone in her body. She tried to move her arm to punch, but it wouldn't come. Then the reality hit her.....she was chained to a wall.
"Ah, I see my pet rabbit has awakened," Endymion said, finally moving off of her and stepping back.
"Wh-where am I?"
"You're home Serenity."
She looked at her surroundings, she was in the palace dungeon. She could tell by the rats that scurried across the floor, and the disgusting smell of urine that lingered in the air. And then she noticed the line of soldiers behind Mamoru, she looked at each one of their expressions. The only word you could use to describe them is souless. They used to be so great, so honorable, but now they were nothing. Nothing but concubines for a rat. A snake. But he was truly lower than that. He was a parasite. A parasite that sucked the dignity and self-respect out of those who well deserved both, leaving nothing behind.
"How can you just stand there?!! How can you just watch me be tortured?!! I am the daughter of your late mistress!! The one HE killed. Please remember. Remember the good times, when we laughed together, cried together, FOUGHT together!!!"
Their faces still remained emotionless.
"Minako! Remember when everyone was sick and we played nurses for a day!! Makoto! Remember when we used to make all kinds of wonderful dishes!! Puu! You were my only friend growing up! We would get into all kinds of trouble together!!"
Mamoru slapped her across her face. "That's enough out of you, you'll only confuse them."
She tried to yank on her chains, tried to go SSJ, but failed both.
"Don't bother trying to struggle, the cuffs around your wrists absorb ki. I'm surprised at how much power you possessed Serenity," Mamoru smirked.
Usagi felt like crying. The worst thing you could do to someone with Saiyan blood is make them feel helpless. But that feeling of sorrow was overcome with a stronger feeling.
Rage.
No longer was she afraid of her tormentor, but was angry as Hell. Angrier than she had ever been, and she didn't care what he did to her anymore.
"You...." she hissed, looking into those Hell-sent eyes.
"You did this to them. They were once the greatest warriors this world has ever seen, and now, now they are just shadows. Shadows of what they used to be, shadows of what they could have been. You may not have smashed their face in like you did my mother, but you killed them all the same. They still may have their bodies, but the moment you snapped those collars on, you took their soul! And you did the same to me Endymion, every time you raped me you stripped me of my dignity until there was none left. And you made me live a lie too. You made me think that you were my father and that I had to do what you said because of it! But it was never about the sex Mamoru, although I'm sure you got pleasure from that too. It was always about the control, the fact that you could force the strongest women of the world to do whatever you wanted! That you made yourself believe that you were stronger than the strongest because you could always make them hurt, wither up. But you'll never be strong Mamoru, you'll always be that same little boy whose parents died in that car crash!!"
Mamoru clamped his hands around her neck in an attempt to choke her, but stopped to look at her face. It wasn't pain or sadness, hatred or malice, it was that same cruel, twisted smile that he always wore.
This intimidated him.
She knew this.
But he did his best to ignore it. He took his hands from her neck, and moved downwards to her waist, and returned the same smile.
"You've always had that fire, that's what I love about you."
She hawked back flem and spit in his face. "I don't think you could ever love anyone."
He gave wind to her words and lay a finger down the center of her chest.
"You've always been my rose in a sea of thorns."
He started kissing her, first her forehead, then her cheeks, then lips, and all she could think about was Gohan, and that feeling of helplessness returned. So she did what she always did when she tried to get things off her mind: She sang.
"Once I built a railroad, made it run..."
He kissed from her lips back to her cheekbone.
"...Made it race against time..."
He slowly began to stroke her thigh with his hand.
"...Once I built a railroad, now it's done..."
And then he started kissing down her neck.
"...Brother could you spare a di-"
She let out an ear piercing scream of pain as he kissed the on spot that wasn't to be touched. To claim a mate on Vegeta-sei, one would bite the neck of the one they loved, leaving a permanent mark; which is precisely what Gohan did. Anyone besides either mate who touched it would cause extreme pain. Mamoru backed away from Chibi-Usa.
"She's too wild to be controlled right now, see what you can do to break her spirit. I'll be back soon, " he said, leaving Usagi to the Sailor Soldiers.
"What should we do with her?" Neptune snickered.
"I think a little torture should be in order," Venus smirked.
Usagi stared at them.
Traitorous whores...
She finally realized that no matter how much she pleaded, they could never be her friends again. All of her Saiyan instincts switched on, and she suddenly had an undying, unsatisfying bloodlust. Her drive to kill revived her power that was lost. She pulled one fist forward and yanked out the chain from the rotting wall. She did the same with the other fist, and soon her ankles too. The Sailors watched in awe and in fear as Usagi ripped herself from the wall.
Search. Destroy. Kill.
Her eyes surveyed the others and they set on Mercury. Not because she hated her more than the others(because she didn't) but because she was the closest one to her. In an instant she was on her. Mercury's screams echoed through the room, and the others watched in horror as Usagi mercilessly ripped and tore through her fuku and flesh. The girls didn't help her though, Mamoru's collars limited their emotions to four:
Fear
Pain
Obedience
Anger.
Usagi tore her skin, ripping tendons and arteries, muscle and ligament, until she found what she was looking for, her heart. She ripped it out and bit a chunk from it, ensuring her death. Blood stained through her silk pajamas. She spit the heart chunk in Venus' face and hoarsely whispered:
"Who's next?"
The remaining senshi fled out of the dungeon screaming things about cannibalism, and locked and bolted the door. Usagi breathed a sigh and kicked Mercury's maimed carcass. She sat down in the corner of the room and tried to sleep until she noticed there was something different about the room.
It's getting warmer.....
The temperature started rising five, ten, fifteen degrees.
My God, they're turning on the furnace!! THEY'RE GOING TO COOK ME ALIVE!!!!
She started pounding on the door to try to break it open, but soon had to stop as the metal was too hot to touch any longer. She tried to build a ki blast, but all the effort she had put into Mercury had taken all of her strength. She could smell the stench of her flesh beginning to burn and blacken. Her hair was starting to singe against the heat. It didn't matter which wall she tried to lean on because each panel was180 degrees or more. The stench of Mercury's blood and frying skin was overbearing. Before she completely passed out, she heard a voice in the back of her head, it was so soothing, it sounded like.....like her mother....
"Serenity? Can you hear me?"
"Momma! Is that you?!!"
"I just want you to know, that I'm always here, even in death. Never be afraid to ask for my help. I love you."
"Momma..." she whispered, before she slipped into unconsciousness.
Had she not been panicking, she would have noticed there was a small window-like panel on the west side of the room, just big enough for her to slip through, and just now, it began to creek open. A white cat with a small golden crescent on his forehead crawled through it. Artemis was very exhausted. He had just spent the past hour climbing through the tunnels of the castle to reach the dungeon.
"Damn it's hot in here," he muttered to himself.
For the past year he had been mourning , mourning the death of his beloved Luna, and the fact that Diana was gone. But he was happy, for the last part, that she had gotten away from the Hell-house, but regretted he hadn't gone with her and was left behind.
"Don't worry Small Lady, I'll get you out of here." He knawed on the collar of her shirt, and gently dragged her from the room through the panel.
You look so much like your mother...like a reincarnation....
Once through the tunnels, he transformed to his human form and picked her up and began to carry her through the palace.
I'll save us both...

Endymion looked at the security cameras, and his left eyebrow twitched.
"King! Are you just going to let them get away like that?!!" asked Jupiter.
Endymion smiled. Don't worry, I won't. I just want to make them think they are. Let them have that glimmer of hope and then yank it away. It's so much fun, you should try it sometime."
He went back to watching the cameras.

"Here it is, the entrance. The entire palace is made of Ginzushou, so no matter how hard you try, you can't break through," said Hotaru.
The group was about to burst through the door when Mars and Pluto blocked their path.
"You have to get through us to get to the palace," Pluto sneered.
"How about a little one on one?" Goku smirked, giving her an uppercut. Before they knew it, both full-blooded Saiyans were fighting the two lone Sailors.
Vegeta turned to Gohan. "The rest of you go in there without us, we can take care of those two idiots. Don't come back without her."
Gohan and Vegeta exchanged similar glances. For once they understood each other for they shared something in common, the love of Usagi.
The remaining Zen warriors plus Sailor Saturn walked through the doors. Endymion saw all of this from his cameras.
"It looks like her little friends have woken up a little early. Great, the more the merrier...."
