Hey everyone, this is a Sailor Moon and Escaflowne crossover. In this fic, Hitomi never shows up. This doesn't mean that I don't like Hitomi; it just means that her existence wouldn't fit with my story. So, let's say that Fanelia has already been destroyed and Van is teamed up with Allen. As far as the SM world goes, Serena has already ascended to the form of Cosmos. This means that she is now utterly alone.
Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon or Escaflowne. If I did, do you really think I would waste my time writing fanfiction that I don't profit from? Ha!
The One That I Long For
The angelic creature, suspended in the vast expanse of darkness, watched over the many galaxies that made up her great kingdom. Her silver orbs gazed over the one that had been her home for so long. Though she guarded all of the galaxies, none were as dear to her as this particular one. She had lived two lives full of love and loss, joy and heartache. Every time she overcame an obstacle, more trials and tribulations were set before her. Finally, when she took her place as Neo Queen Serenity, she thought that she would finally be content. She thought that her destiny was fulfilled. Fate, as it seems, had another idea in mind.
This Serenity was special. She was the one chosen from a long line of princesses. She was the one dubbed the protector of the entire Universe. She was the one that became immortal. She was blessed with unfathomable power but cursed all the same. Cosmos transcended all time and space. She loved all but had no one to love her in return. She is the scout that is to remain alone to the very end. The one that must watch over the world but is never allowed to touch. She is the one that overcame death and chaos only to be thrown into even greater depths of pain. She lost all of her friends, family, and even her soulmate.
As memories flooded her mind, tears began to race down her cheeks. It seemed like yesterday that she was ruling over the earth alongside of her husband, Endymion. More tears began to fall as she was forced to watch her senshi grow old and die. Finally, her love passed on.
*Flashback*
A very handsome king lay on a beautifully crafted bed. He was kept young by the power of the Imperium Silver Crystal. Serenity needed him to be there by her side. This is why he had lived for so long, but now his time was up.
"Goodbye, Usako." The words barely managed to escape his lips.
"No, you can't leave me! I need you!" This was the reply of the hysterical queen.
"My love, we both knew this day was inevitable. It is now time for you to take your place as the Goddess of the Stars. It's time for a beautiful daughter to take the burden of the throne off our hands," he smiled sweetly.
"I don't want to be a goddess! I don't want anything but you!" she cried out desperately.
"Usako, I've lived my life and you have made me happier than I ever imagined possible. Please, don't cry," he whispered as he brushed a tear from her delicate face. "I have no regrets."
"Please! No! Endymion!"
"Shhh. Our love has conquered death before, or have you forgotten?"
"I could never forget," she replied.
"Just remember, I am always with you. Always," he paused, taking time to caress her cheek with the palm of his hand. He slowly pulled her down into their final kiss. It was the most passionate kiss they had ever shared. All their sorrow, hope, love, and desperation was put into this kiss. When the lovers reluctantly parted, Endymion gazed into her enchanting sapphire eyes and said his final words,
"I love you."
As soon as the king's heart ceased to beat, a silver light engulfed his mournful wife. Where the queen had once been, now appeared Cosmos.
The heir to the thrown, once merely known as Rini, walked into her parent's room to see the newly created guardian and gasped.
"Mother?!"
"My child, the kingdom is now yours to rule."
"I... I'm not ready!"
"I have faith in you, just like you have always had faith in me."
"Do you really have to go?"
"Yes, Rini, I love you, now and forever." The majestic being softly whispered as she began to fade.
"Ma...ma," she choked through her tears, "I love you!" She ran and gave her mother one last embrace before they were forced to part, forever.
*End of Flashback*
Despair flooded her heart. The heart wrenching pain was just too much.
"Please, take my pain and sorrow away," the senshi cried in desperation.
A faint glow began to creep through the cracks between her fingers. She opened her fist and looked down at her crystal. The crystal that had drug her into this entire mess. The one that was her only companion throughout all of eternity. The glow grew larger and enveloped her. Cosmos had to shield her eyes from the immense light being put off by the crystal.
A voice then came into play. "Grant the angel a new life. A life where she can find true happiness. A life where memories do not haunt her. Allow her to make her own decision for once. Give her the ability to choose between freedom and destiny."
The light began to fade only to reappear on a different planet in a different time.
************************************************************
"Where do you think she came from?" asked one voice.
"I don't know," a voice replied.
"What should we do with her?" the first voice said.
"Let's take her to the boss and let him decide," the second voice said in turn.
************************************************************
Who is the mysterious voice that pleaded with the crystal? Who is Cosmos being taken to? What will her new life consist of?
Well, what did you think? Take it easy on me, this is my first fic. I need people to review and tell me who Serenity should be paired with. After I get some reviews I'll get the next chapter up ASAP!
