Prelude to the battle!
The Deaths of the Inners!
[V.O- My name is Serena Tsukino...]
Serena ran towards the woods, followed by the Mirai boys.
[One year ago, I was discovered by Luna to be Sailor Moon. I didn't want to at first. I wanted to be normal.]
"Are you sure you felt their Ki's here Majesty? I can't feel them." Mirai Trunks said. Serena kept running. Her legs were tired, and aching. She had just run ten miles, non-stop.
[Then I was discovered to be the Moon Princess. My friends were always by my side. Friends. Hmph. I am running to them. I...am going to kill my 'friends'.]
"She won't respond Trunks." Mirai Goten told his friend. Serena began to gain speed. Her muscles were ready to cramp horribly. Serena merely used the power of the crystal to keep running. She felt their Ki's. Their bright, shining crystals. Sailor Crystals. The light that never fades...
[Rini came. The little spore dropped from the sky. Demanding the crystal. The brat. We eventually decided to help her. We traveled to the future. She became Wicked Lady. We saved her though. And we saved the world...]
"Majesty! Stop!" Mirai Trunks called. Either Serena didn't hear him, or she didn't care. Which was it? So tired. She began to dehydrate. She needed something to drink. She needed to rest. At this point, there was nothing she wouldn't do to lay down and sleep. No. She had come too far. Mirai Trunks and Mirai Goten were having to push their own energy to the limit to keep Serena in sight.
[We saved the world from silence. We healed Hotaru. Then it happened. A new enemy. I transferred to Gohan's school to find the source. I had seen the Circus attack him. It was later that I learned his brother was holding Pegasus.]
The wounds on Serena's body opened and began to sting as perspiration seeped into them. Her lungs were on fire. Her weights didn't help much either.
"Holy...Goten! She'll collapse at this rate!" Mirai Trunks called. So close. She could embrace their aura's. She ran over a hill and stopped. For there, in the valley, were the Inner Sailor Senshi...
[I hate them. But my power doesn't shine from my hatred. It shines for my dedication to protect Goten. I love the kid as if he were my brother. So I will kill them. I will kill them to protect Goten. It's my mission after all. But...it's strange. If it's only my mission to protect him, then why do I want to and not shun it off as I do everything else.]
Mars looked up.
"Hey. It's Sailor Meatball brain." She sneered. Serena stood for a moment, catching her breath. In her mind, she wished her returning to them were joyous. She could envision them waving and smiling. Inviting her down. But that wasn't going to happen. She pulled out her locket. But something happened. It began to change. From the center, the Moon became a pure yellow circle. It spread around it, turning it yellow. A crescent Moon formed at the bottom.
"What?" She asked, breathlessly. A new compact. A new way to fight.
"It...changed?" She asked. She then collapsed into a tree. She began to close her eyes. So sleepy...NO!
"No! Can't...sleep!" She said. Every word, every breath, a struggle. The last time she felt like this was when she had to train with Vegeta. She willed herself to stay awake. With all the energy she had left, she called the Silver Moon Crystal to her.
"Silver Moon Crystal, come to my hand..." She whispered. Had it heard her? Would it come? She closed her eyes for a moment. A loud voice woke her.
~No Serena! Stay awake!~ It commanded. Serena opened her eyes again in time to she the attack launched at her. She jumped away, with renewed strength.
~Serena, listen to me. You can't fall asleep now! It's what they're waiting for! Stay awake and fight them! Do you hear me!~ It shouted. The voice was King Kai. No. So...tired...
[Can I not stay awake? I'm so tired. But, I have to stay awake. Goten is in danger. The little boy whom I love like a brother. I won't let him die. I am Sailor Moon.]
~Serena, You can do this! You went under the most extreme training procedures known to man! Say 'Eternal Power, Transform!~ He shouted loudly. Serena stood again, and held the compact up.
"Eternal Power...Tr...trans...transform..." She whispered. She transformed into Eternal Sailor Moon. Her costume was much heavier than Super Sailor Moons. Her large white wings each weighed 100 pounds. 400 pounds on her back, added to the 9 tons on each arm and leg, and her skirt. Each layer weighed three tons each. Not to mention the 100 pounds on her chest. Jupiter laughed.
"Oh look at this! The stupid little klutz can't even take a few measly pounds of cloth!" She shouted. The other four joined in laughing.
"Yea...Lita? Heh. A few pounds? Try 90,500 pounds." She said. Everyone gasped. She was the one who laughed.
"Yea. That's right. That's more weight...than any of you...combined...could handle! Even...even in...a million lives!" She shouted loudly. She held her hand up.
"Nine tons...resting on this arm alone." She said. She gestured to her large wings.
"100 pounds...each. My bow is 100 pounds." She explained. Mars scoffed.
"Impossible! Then each arm and each leg would have to be nine tons each! Along with your skirt!" She shouted. Mercury held her computer, analyzing the new uniform. The results startled her.
"Girls, she's not lying." She said. Everyone couldn't believe it.
"She's wearing 90-thousand and 500 pounds?! And STANDING!?" They demanded.
"That's what my analysis says. Approximately 45 and one quarter tons are distributed through-out her body. I'm also reading a high energy build up."
[Ha. So for once, I surprised them. And in a way I WANT them surprised. For once I have the upper hand. I'll rid myself of them and their memory.]
Serena raised her hand into the air.
"For Love and Justice! A beautiful fighter in a Sailor Suit!! Eternal Sailor Moon!" She shouted. Serena realized that the harder she fought the exhaustion the more energy she had.
"And in the name of the Moon, I shall Punish you!" She cried. Venus growled.
"Venus Wink Chain Sword!" She called. Serena pushed herself out of its way, and threw a weak Ki ball at them.
"No more energy.so tired.must rest." She whispered, closing her eyes.
~NO SERENA!~ King Kai shouted. She had fallen asleep. Venus raised her sword. Serena slumbered peacefully, and she was about to die once more. She changed back to normal. As Venus brought the weapon down, she was incinerated by a Golden sphere of Ki. Everyone else turned. There stood Gohan and Goku, alongside Mirai Goten and Mirai Trunks.
"No one tries to kill my friend when I'm around to stop it!" He shouted, throwing another Ki ball at Jupiter. She jumped away. Mirai Trunks pulled his sword out and jumped behind her, and drove it through her back. Mirai Goten got into a one-on-one combat with Sailor Mars, and Goku began to fight Sailor Mercury. Gohan fought with Tuxedo Mask. Mirai Trunks kneeled down next to Serena, trying to wake her.
"Wake up Majesty." He said, shaking her. She began to open her eyes.
"Mmm? Trunks?" She asked groggily. He smiled.
"Yea. Come on. Let's get you home." He said, lifting her. Using her arm, she nudged him away, and began to gather energy for a Ki blast. A massive one at that. He took her hand, and transferred a lot of his own energy into her, so she wouldn't collapse. Serena had been his best friend since his childhood. He wasn't about to let her get herself killed.
"Cosmic." She began. The hearing of the three Saiyan's picked up the faint word. They knew what would happen.
"Dad let's go! We'll be incinerated!" Gohan shouted, flying back to Serena. Mirai Goten threw Mars into the ground, causing her to (A.N- I am ready to vomit as it is from lack of food all week. Use your imaginations as to the fate of poor Sailor Mars). Goku fired the blast at Mercury, killing her as well.
"Moon." Goku and Mirai Goten flew back towards Serena, leaving Tuxedo Mask. He ran towards them. Once safely behind Serena, the attack fired.
"Power." She whispered. The colossal blast flew towards the Prince of the Earth, killing him, and finishing off the remains of the Inner Sailor Scouts. Serena smiled.
[I did it. I finally did it. I've rid myself of my past. Now I'm no longer Serena Tsukino.]
Mirai Goten lifted the exhausted girl. She fell asleep in his arms.
"Well we'd better.enlighten the outers as to the current 'condition' of the Inners." Gohan said, smiling. He rubbed Serena's hair gently.
[I have a new family. I can feel safe. As I have always felt since I came to Gohan that first day. Who could've guessed? A new family. A new name. I am Serena Son now. And no one is going to take that away from me. No one will tear me from my family.]

Well, here it is. A new chapter. Finished on one of the worst days of the year. Well.maybe not WORST. More like, tied with Christmas. I really can't stand family, so while I try getting out of visiting them, enjoy the new chapter!
