When I left off in the last chapter, Sailor Mars was dying. She thought
about her love for Princess Serenity. In case you haven't guessed, this is
set before the sailors were reborn on earth. She told Serenity that she
loved her and was rejected. In this next chapter, it goes back to when she
is dying.
I said I would always be there for her. Guess I should have asked if she would do the same for me. I haven't talked to her since that day. She has avoided me. It was just today that we attacked by the Negaverse. I went looking for her as soon as the battle begun. Ii knew she needed someone to fight by her side and look out for her. Oh, I found her all right. But her prince was already protecting her. I still ran up to help her. I still love her. The moment she saw me, I could see two things in her eyes, fear and hate. She was mad at me big time. She didn't even want me to protect her. I fought the youma as they made their way to her and the prince. I couldn't let them die, even Endymond. Some where during the battle, I got separated from them. The battles were so intense that I didn't notice I had started fighting in the opposite direct. I was hurting really badly. Youma never stopped attacking. Burn one down to cinders, and another takes its place. "Mars Flame Sniper" I shout as another monster leaps out of the shadows. It is not even phased. This demon was enormous, at least twice my height. And it certainly wouldn't be winning any beauty contests. A lizard like creature with giant claws and scaly skin. His head was the worst. Green patches of wiry hair covered its green slimy skull. Its eyes were wide with oozy yellow liquid falling from them like tear. Sharp fangs grinned devilishly as he considers me a midnight snack. "I will kill you, just like I killed your fellow soldiers. Then no one will be left between the Negaverse and the moon kingdom. The royal family will fall at my claws." "That is not an option, I will fight till I die." I say as I call my power, the fire of Mars, fourth. I cannot let this monster kill my love. I know she does not love me, but by the gods! I cannot let her be murdered in cold blood. The universe needs her more than it needs me. My body in engulfed in flames now. The fire is not hurtful, but empowering. I will kill this creature, with my life essence. "Mars Phoenix Song!" I yell out as my attack begins. An ancient song starts singing through the air, the song comes from my heart. It is the soul of Mars. The legend of the Phoenix says it will die singing, so I die singing as I sing along to the song of Mars. A song of sacrifice as I lunge forth and attack my opponent with the fires of Mars.
Sailor Mars sighed as she felt her life melting away. As was by legend, the Phoenix dies as the sun rose in the distance. She would meet the same fate for using the attack. Ii t took too much out of her. She knew it meant her end. But living with the hate her princess held for her. She could not live.
I love her even now as my life fire fades away. Why can she not at least love me a little? I have torn us apart. She hates me and I can do nothing to make up for it. Except this. I can die for her. I know I cannot die forever. I will rise again, and love her again. And she will always hate me. IT ISN'T FAIR! Why do Ii have to suffer I don't want to make her life harder. I love her and living and loving her, it hurts her. I HATE YOU! I hate you princess, but I love you. I look up to the sky and see the sky getting brighter faster. Any minute now and I will die and the cycle will start up again. "Please! If anyone is listening! Don't let me love her, don't let me love her again! I don't want to love her anymore! Not anymore," silence surrounds her. No one is with her and she begins to feel scared. "I don't want to die alone, I DON'T WANT TO BE ALLONE!" She cries as her breath slows. *No one will hear you cry, cry out before you die. So why do you even try* She thinks to herself as tears fall from her eyes and eventually stop for the dead cannot cry. Her eyes still stare into the sky looking for an answer. They are unseeing. A shadow looms over her body. The owner leans down to close her eyes. How sad, they are no longer violet, but empty black. Gentle hands lift her body and arms encircle her still form and hold her close. Tears fall from ruby red eyes and as gently a song begins to be sung. It was a soft voice of a woman, the song, like a lullaby sung to a child. Green hair flowed in the morning wind as gently she started rocking the body that once held the fire of Mars.
