If Only I Could Turn Back Time...
By: Sailor Chibi Star Fighter
Rated: G-PG (flashbacks to the tragedy battle)
Disclaimer: If I owned Sailor Moon, Seiya and Usagi would be together, Stars would be dubbed, Chibiusa would be Seiya and Usagi's future daughter, the Amazoness Quartet would be the Asteroid Senshi in the Anime and come back, and there would be more seasons of Sailor Moon! Seeing as how none of these are true in the show, I must not own Sailor Moon.
Chapter Two
The Nightmare Queen: Protecters in the Darkness
Usagi ran down the path she had just come from. "Haruka-san! Haruka-san!" she yelled as she reached the bench where Haruka was sitting, still staring at where Usagi had just left. Haruka looked up slowly. "Neko-chan...gomen ne I-" Usagi shushed her. "No, no, Haruka-san...it was my fault...I shouldn't have slapped you like that...I'm REALLY sorry!" Haruka shook her head. "Still....I shouldn't have said thse things about Fighter..." Usagi put her hands on the taller girl's shoulders. "Its okay Haruka-san.." Haruka smiled but then noticed the silver star on the chain around the princess's neck. "Where did you get that?" Usagi took a hold of the precious necklace. "Oh...I found it..." Haruka knew she was hiding something, but didn't think it was that important. "Come on Neko-chan....lets go find Kakyuu-san...she'll need comforting as well."

It was later that night when Usagi got into her pajamas and put on her robe. She tyed it around her waist and sat at the vanity table and began to brush her hair. As if an after thought, Usagi opened the small silver locket. She laughed when she recognised the tune. It was the Three Lights' hit song, 'Nagaraboshi.' Usagi stoped to think as thousands of memories flooded her head. A breeze stirred around her and she saw a white feather float by. "Odango...." the wind whispered. Usagi turned in her chair and watched as the leather clad figure appeared in the center of the room. Usagi smiled. "You can't very well call me Odango with my hair down though, ne?" Fighter shook her head and smiled as she detransformed. "You'll always be 'Odango' to me." he said. Usagi hugged the ravenhaired boy. "Its so hard to believe that you're here...its like you're still alive..." Seiya smiled wanly. "Demo Odango..you know that I am dead..." Usagi gripped his shirt tightly. "I know....and sometimes...its so hard...not to open the locket so the others can see....." she looked up at him. "Taiki, Yaten, and Kakyuu aren't the same now...Yaten won't come out of his room and can't stop crying, Taiki won't talk to anybody but Ami, and even then he barley speaks, and Kakyuu buried herself in her Princess duties! They all miss you so much..." Seiya looked sad. "I know they do.......maybe...." Usagi blinked and cocked her head. "Maybe what?" Seiya shook his head. "Nothing Odango... don't worry about it.." Usagi sighed. "Ne...Seiya...is there like...a limit on how long you can stay at a time?" Seiya smiled at her. "I can stay as long as you want, but if any one who knows me comes, I'll have to leave right away." Usagi hugged him tighter. "Aishiteru Seiya.." "Aishiteru...Odango..."
Yaten sat on the side of his bed, staring at the picture of him and his brothers. A tear rolled down his cheek. "Seiya...." he murmered.
*Memory* (Memory = real time AND flashback, Flashback-Italic Real Time-Normal)
Fighter blasted a youma.
Yaten stared at the picture.
"Fighter look out!" Maker screamed.
Yaten shook with the memory.
Fighter turned.
Yaten closed his eyes.
The attack hit Fighter square in the chest. She screamed in pain.
Yaten held his head, he was crying now. He didn't WANT to remember!!!!!!
*End Memory, now flashback*
Healer stared in horror as her sister slowly crumpled to the ground. She screamed in rage and powered up her star yell with more power than she ever had before. "STAR SENSITIVE INFERNO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Needless to say, the youma was destroied.
Healer ran over to where Maker had already held Fighter up. Kakyuu was there aswell, praying that Fighter wasn't dead. Healer slid to her knees beside her sister and grabbed her hand. "Fighter! Fighter! Come on Fighter! Fighter wake up!! Open your eyes! Please! Fighter!" Healer was hysteric. Then her eyes went wide as Fighter's eyes opened, but just barely. "Healer...." she whispered. "Maker...." She gripped Healer's hand tighter. "Say goodbye....to Odango for me..." she whispered. Tears filled Healer's eyes as she squeesed her sister's hand. "D-don't talk like that.." Fighter's chest heaved with one last breath. "Od..ango..." she whispered feebly, and a tear rolled down her cheek. Then her grip on Healer's hand went limp, her eyes closed and her head fell to the side, gently resting against Maker's shoulder, and her whole body went limp.
Healer let out an anguised shriek and Maker bowed her head, tears dripping down her face. Kakyuu screamed and her crying soon joining Healer's hysteric sobs and Maker's quiet tears. Healer's crys grew louder as she felt the ravenhaired, Starlight leader's shining star dissapear.
*end flashback*
Yaten sobbed into his hands. "Its not fair....."
A wind blew around him, shifting his hair. A white feather landed in his lap. He stared at it. "Yaten..." the wind whispered. He brought his tearstained face up. "Don't cry Yaten...." the wind said once again. "I'll always be here....little brother......." The wind stoped and Yaten sat bewildered, he could have sworn that was Seiya's voice, but that couldn't be...Seiya was dead....yet....that had been his voice.... He stared at the feather in his lap. What did it all mean.....?

"Grim! Report!" A young boy, Grim bowed to his mistress. "Olivia-sama...the Starlights and Paincess Kakyuu are in a state of mourning at this time and are very volnurable, even with the senshi of the planet earth here, who are also mourning." Olivia blinked. "What are they mourning?" Grim bowed again. "The death of Sailor Star Fighter my queen. Apparently, that group of youma we sent out after the Starlights killed her. It was near instant death too." Grim smirked. "She only lasted about 5 minutes after hit by the attack." Olivia grinned evily. "Oh how I wish I could have been there.." Grim bowed once more and left the room. As he closed the doors to his chaimers he exhaled and leaned up against the door, sliding to the ground, bringing his knees to his chest and buring his face in his crossed arms. "Fighter..." he whispered. He had fallen in love with the woman long ago, and now..she was dead..all because of him...it wasn't fair... he was just a child..he couldn't cope with that kind of pain...he was just a child...

Ami placed her hand on Taiki's. "Taiki...come on...you must tell me what is wrong!" Taiki didn't answer.
*Flashback*
Maker punched a youma and half turned as she did to see an enormus attack flying at Fighter's unprotected back. "FIGHTER!!!!! LOOK OUT!!!!!" she screamed.
Fighter turned and the attack hit her in the chest and she screamed in pain. She slowly, crumpled onto the ground. As Maker ran over to her she heard Healer scream in rage. "STAR SENSITIVE INFERNO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Needless to say, the youma was destroied.
A few seconds later, Healer joined her as she held Fighter up. Kakyuu was there aswell, praying that Fighter wasn't dead. Maker looked at Healer sadly as she slid to her knees beside her sister and grabbed her hand"Fighter! Fighter! Come on Fighter! Fighter wake up!! Open your eyes! Please! Fighter!" Healer was hysteric. Maker's eyes went wide as Fighter's eyes opened, but just barely. "Healer...." she whispered. "Maker.... Say goodbye....to Odango for me..." she whispered. Tears filled Maker's eyes because she knew that her sister was dying.. Fighter's chest heaved with one last breath. "Od..ango..." she whispered feebly, and a tear rolled down her cheek. Her eyes closed and her head fell to the side, gently resting against Maker's shoulder, and her whole body went limp.
*end flashback*
Taiki stared at the floor. A soft breeze blew by, rustling his hair. "Taiki..." Taiki brought his head up sharply as the voice resounded in his mind, at least, Ami didn't seem to hear it. "Don't feel so bad....You of all people should know...I'm not that easy to get rid of.....big brother.... By the way....shes sitting right next to you! Kiss her for Kami's sake!" and then, the wind was gone, leaving a bewildered Taiki sitting next to a concerened Ami.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kakyuu was busy, busy, busy, she had to do all year's princess duties now...or she'd remember Fighter.. There was a knock on the door. "Kakyuu-san?" it was Usagi again. She had come earlier with Haruka and they had tried to get through to her, with no sucess... "Kakyuu-san? May I come in?" Kakyuu sighed. "Come in Usagi-san.." Usagi quietly walked in and Kakyuu tried hard to stifle a laugh. Usagi was in pink PJs with little bunny slippers on. Usagi put her hands on her hips in mock frustration. "You bury yourself in your work, and now you're laughing at my pajamas!" Now that made Kakyuu laugh. Usagi smiled. "Its getting late Kakyuu-san, and you're working to hard...get some sleep..." then she left, muttering about her pajamas. Kakyuu put down the quill pen she had been using and held her face in her hands to think about what Usagi had said. "Princess...." a voice whispered as her red hair blew in a sudden wind. Kakyuu looked up startled. "Princess....don't feel sad....I may not be able to protect you anymore.....but I will never leave your side, your my princess....." Then it was gone.

Six small figures stood in a tree, hidden by the shadows. The one sitting on a tyree branch looked up at the taller girl standing beside her who was leaning on the tree, standing on the same branch. "Should we go in now Wolf?" she asked. The taller girl shook her head. "Not yet..." A girl on another branch looked over. "Are you sure Wolf?" The one called Wolf nodded. "I'm positive Tiger..." she looked to another girl. "Any objections Hawk?" the one called Hawk shook her head. Wolf nodded. "Good..lets be off then!" and she leapt away, the ones called Tiger and Hawk leapt away with her. The shorter girl who had talked to Wolf sighed. "She is so hyper... Come on guys.." and she leapt away, the two remaining girls dissapeared with her.
