Dislcaimer:
As always it is my sad duty to remind everyone, including
myself that I do NOT own Sailor Moon or anything that goes
with her. I'm just borrowing the characters for a bit.

The Guardian

By Ceila

* * *

I sit in wonder
Searching the fields of time
Looking for something to do.

Sometimes I wish I could just
Throw it all away and
Fly through time
Forever lost from the bigger picture.

The bigger picture
Now that's a laugh.

My life is to protect that
Bigger picture,
To guarantee it's existance
and protect it at all costs.

But what if I refuse?

What if I turned the other cheek,
Looked the other way, or
Convieniently didn't see
Something of importance?

What if I decide that the
Bigger picture
Isn't the right one?

I have the power to change it.

I can mold the future
Or the past
And change what they all know to be real.

I can put cats in charge of the world
And make humans the pets.

Luna would love that.

I could save the first Serenity before she dies,
I could prevent the deaths that occurred,
Save my friends and the world.

So why don't I?

Maybe it's fear, or maybe,
Duty?

I'm a soldier first and foremost,
Held by my word
To serve and protect.

So I sit,
Watching time go by.
