Love Will Never Part
Chapter 12
Butterfly
(Nova's Castle Throne Room)
The four crystals merged into one and formed the mystical Gypsum crystal. A pure evil sound of laughter filled the room as a dark shadow presided over them all. "AHAHAHAHA, I AM FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!"
The voice echoed through their ears and as the dark shadow contorted itself into the form of a person, and all became silent. The figure walked forward, she strode confidently toward Nova. Smirking she laid a hand upon his face, gently rubbing her index finger along his jaw line. "Thank you ever so much for freeing me from my confinement dearest Nova. I will always be grateful..." And with a powerful shove, she sent Nova back into the light of the gypsum crystal.
Serenity and Tuxedo Kamen gasped, not fully understanding Canopus' actions. Turning to receive their questioning eyes, Canopus smiled. Reaching out a hand, a staff formed, and to the top of this staff she attached the glowing crystal. "I am free. Living in solitude for all those years I had plenty of time to think. Think about all that happened in my life. To think about all that could have been changed. I thought about the future often... I began to wonder if I even had a future. Visions of Queen Serenity haunted me, so many years of torture I was put through! I will have my revenge for it all. Nova is just one of the many who will suffer for my pain! He turned and ran the moment he saw danger in the battle with Queen Serenity. He left me to be trapped in the gypsum crystal! He wasn't able to take care of the Moon Queen himself so he sent our daughter to do it. In that idiotic step he cost her, her life! He cause the chain of events that sent my daughter, my only daughter, to her death in a battle with you... you pathetic moon twit. He will suffer the same fate I have. I will leave him in the same solitary confinement he left me. He will feel the pain and heartache I felt. The same betrayal and sorrow! And as for you, the daughter of the blessed moon queen, you will suffer an even worse fate! You will pay for the sins you and your mother committed!"
Canopus raised her staff high, the light of the crystal shining brightly over the room. With a wicked grin she locked eyes with Serenity. They stared into each other's souls for what seemed like hours to Tuxedo Kamen. And finally Canopus let out one last bitter laugh and shot out a beam of energy from the gypsum crystal staff.
(The Battle on the Steps of Nova's Dungeon)
"Okibi! What have you done? Are you all right? Speak to me..." Shakau held the burnt body of her sister close to her. The tears were threatening to spill from her watery eyes. When she didn't receive an answer she glared up at mars with a new, fiery hatred of the senshi member. "This is all your fault! My sister... she's..." Closing her eyes firmly, Shakau laid Okibi to her side gently. Standing she charged at Mars with everything she had, the pain of loosing her dear sister bursting out in one shriek of emotion.
While Mars dodged Shakau's attacks, and did her best to defend herself, the other sailors began to realize it all. "Shakau... she was saved by her sister Okibi. They aren't pure evil. There is some goodness inside them, and with sailor moon's crystal we can still save the rest of them. What do you say guys?" Venus asked the rest of the senshi.
Mars slammed back into the wall hard, unable to pull herself to her feet. "Now," Shakau grinned. "You die..." Slowly she raised a hand to finish off Sailor Mars. Mars' eyes stared up at Shakau's. 'She is being fueled by the anguish over the death of her sister. This IS my fault. I killed her. I should have been able to sense it. They aren't evil. They've just been corrupted by Nova.' She thought. Closing her eyes she lowered her head. 'I failed. I failed them all. I've failed the princess. I'm supposed to be able to help others not destroy them! I'm nothing but a destructive baka! I'm so ashamed... I wasn't able to protect the princess, and I wasn't able to save her in the end either...'
"Hold it!" yelled Sailor Jupiter. "There is no need for this! We can help you all."
"Sailor Moon, our princess has the power to save you three from this fate. You could join us Glycoliums. Put your powers to helping us beat Nova, and Canopus." Mercury pleaded.
"And what about Okibi!" Kaenhoushaki demanded. "That wont bring her back to us after what she did!" She pointed a finger at Mars and glared at her angrily.
"Neither will killing Sailor Mars! There isn't any way to bring your sister back! But there is a way to go on with your lives... there's a way to make things better. You don't have to live this way. You are good people, and we can make you better again. Let us help!" Venus held out a hand to Enshoku. "We want to make right what we have done wrong, don't you want deep down in your hearts to do the same?"
(Nova's Castle Throne Room)
The light of the gypsum crystal encased Tuxedo Kamen's body. He yelled out to his love in vain, for his voice was drowned out by the wicked cackling of Canopus. As he lost consciousness, his last thoughts were of his princess. 'Serenity, be strong. For I am in you heart always, now and forever more.'
"Noooo! Tuxedo-sama!" Serenity's eyes overflowed with tears as her only love vanished before her eyes into the light of the golden crystal. "No... my love, come back... come back..."
"Ahahahaha! You weak pitiful excuse for a princess! You are nothing without your protectors! Go ahead and cry. Cry! You will never see him again, that I promise you! And now, I think I will enjoy watching you die... a slow and agonizing death. Keep in mind that there will be no one to save you. Your friends are slowly wasting away in the dungeon! Your," Canopus laughed bitterly. "True love will suffer for all eternity in the hot light of my crystal. Eventually he will come to hate you. He will curse ever meeting you, and hate you for all time! I want these ideas to burn into your mind! I want you to think about all of this before you meet your doom! And when you pass into the afterlife, I want these feeling to haunt your tortured soul as you burn in hell for all you have done!"
"You monster!" Serenity cried. "You have been the cause of the suffering of my friend and family. You were the very element that sparked all the pain and suffering in this world and in the sliver millennium! If it weren't for you and Nova, Beryl would never have destroyed my home! My mother, Queen Serenity would never have died! We would all be living happily in our beloved kingdom! There would be peace and happiness! Your jealousy, your pitiful jealousy caused millions their lives and if I don't stop you, millions more will probably die..." Serenity rose strongly to her feet. "I wont let you. I wont let you harm another person! I wont let you take away my friend! I will not allow and more pain! I will not allow you to harm anyone again! In the name of the moon, I will stop you, even if I have to die trying! I will not let them down again!" Serenity raised the Ginzuishou into the air and braced herself for the battle ahead. The battle that would decide the fate of everyone, and she would not let them down.
(The Battle on the Steps of Nova's Dungeon)
Enshoku stared down at the hand offered to her. 'What are these sailors trying to pull... what are they up to?' She glanced over to her sisters. Kaenhoushaki held her wounded arm close to her and stared at the floor emotionless. Shakau clenched her fists. She wanted revenge for the death of her sister and she was going to get it one way or another! With one last cry she attacked Sailor Mars' body with all her might.
"Space Sword Blaster!"
"Jupiter Oak Evolution!"
The two attacks blended and merged, slamming into Shakau's attack and knocking her off her feet from the explosion. "Shakau! NO!" Cried Enshoku and Kaenhoushaki, as they ran to their fallen sister.
"No! You guy, don't attack them. They don't know what they're doing. Let's just leave them here; we can deal with them later on. Serenity needs us." Mercury stated her visor appearing over her eyes. "There is something big going on upstairs. She's using the Ginzuishou! She needs our power!"
The rest of the senshi nodded. Jupiter helped mars to her feet and the group raced up the stairs to find their beloved princess and aid her in the epic battle that would decide the fate of the universe.
