Episode 4: The New Form, Truth Is Discovered

Author's notes: It's amazing when you beg people what you get. ^_^ I like this chapter. It really moves along the plot I think. It's a bit long, but I think everyone will enjoy it. So grab some popcorn, turn on the music, and take a seat. I'd like to thank the select few people who I made read and review my story: gingy, nepo LOL I mean neo, niknik, and especially rinners because she's been super supportive of this ficcer. I *would* thank the people who I didn't force, but um there…weren't…any. ANYWAY!

Dark spindly legs crawled over and across the dark bizarre wall, scurrying over the twisted bumps that resembled blood vessels to come to a lump of spider silk carefully sewn onto the wall the trap a helpless victim. There, in the bloodstained web cocoon was Ami, lost in coma and intoxicated by the sleep. A curious head moved and stared at her limp body. It quickly cut the silk and caught Ami gently after thoroughly inspecting her. The youma brought the girl down the eerie cavern into what looked like a throne room where a beautiful maiden sat and stared at the beast.

It cautiously laid Ami onto the steps in front of the woman on the throne. The woman kept her eyes closed and raised Ami into the air mentally, causing her wounds to heal. Ami soon landed back onto the ground where the awkward beast took her again and set her into a crystal tomb. The woman floated along the floor and stared at Ami, sleeping peacefully… when the strange girl awoke, she would have her questioned. She knew that she wouldn't have been captured unless she was some sort of a threat to her or her plans. She drew in her breath, now that there was a possibility that there may some sort of delay. She turned to a creature and spoke it in native tongue, telling to find the others that are like her. The creature crawled away, obeying its master's orders.



Hotaru ran into her room, shut the door quickly and walked to her bed. Tears started falling from her eyes and hit the floor. She leaped to her bed and buried her head into the pillow and screamed, but it was muffled. She whimpered softly and hugged the pillow close to her. She had no idea what came over her at all, perhaps because she knew that no matter what she did to senshi for revenge, they would always doubt her mental strengths; this drove her to complete insanity. Even if seeing them horrified made her spine tingle and her hands tremble, making her entirely euphoric. It was like a guilty pleasure or a broken taboo. She lay on the bed in a state of joy and pain, both emotions raging at the same time, taking a hold of her. Her body emitted a dull lilac glow, a few seconds passed, and there on the bed was Sailor Saturn. Her hair brushed against her shoulders and moved swiftly, as if a breeze blew across her. Her sign sparked on her forehead, and her uniform was changed into a black stitch up dress, much more suiting her fashion. She had transformed into her final form, Cronus, still emitting a quiet radiance.



Meanwhile, at the other end of the house, Michiru sat on a small plush pillow on the burgundy carpet gazing into her mirror. Realization flickered in her eyes as the image of Hotaru burned in her mind. It was then that she knew; she knew that what she said before was nothing but lies. The question of why ran through her mind. Haruka ran into the room, knowing that something was troubling Michiru, she could sense it. Michiru glanced up; a look of pain mixed with confusion ached in her eyes.

"What is it?" Haruka asked, walking slowly towards Michiru and her mirror of truth.

"Its Hotaru… she lied. Ami's alive…" Michiru whispered quietly in a reply, keeping her voice low as if it was dangerous if someone heard. Haruka's eyes widened in shock; she tried to take in the momentum of the situation.

"She…what?" Haruka mumbled, squatting beside Michiru, "but why?"

"I have no idea; however, I do suggest we tell the senshi right away and confront Hotaru. Something is definitely not right." Michiru said, still keeping her voice hushed. Haruka nodded in understanding and moved quickly out of the room. She had to gather the senshi as quick as she could.

Rei's face appeared on a small communicator-watch as Haruka fumbled to tell her what happened. The word soon spread to all of the senshi, and Hotaru was brought out. By that time, Cronus had reverted back into Hotaru, not quite ready to bring out her knew form to the other senshi.

Hotaru glanced around the room and stared coldly at the faces of all the other senshi. She crossed her arms, feeling as if she was on trial now. Rei looked into her eyes, trying to search for a reason or an explanation, perhaps even a hint of innocence. She found nothing. Hotaru's eyes were a dark void of heliotrope.

Rei hissed quietly, "You! You are a traitor to the alliance! Why would you lie to us?"

Before Hotaru could argue, Haruka interjected. She knew her goals were to keep everyone together, for if the senshi broke apart, then there would be no hope left.

"Rei! I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation for all of this! Stop being so judgmental. Hotaru is just a child, of course she doesn't know better." That had done it. Hotaru's fists shook with anger, her eyes snapped open and she stared distantly at Haruka. She had been reduced to a mere child in the eyes of her former colleagues. There was a loud snap followed by an ear- piercing scream. Haruka frantically shuffled, staring at her arm, now broken, thanks to who she had been defending. Michiru tended to Haruka as everyone stared in shock at Hotaru.

"Mistress 9?" questioned Rei. Rei could feel her heart pound as she stared back into Hotaru's eyes; they were different then before… they burned with an unyielding rage. Her eyes reflected nothing; they were a boundless sea of magentas and violets.

"I am not that weak apparition of evil! I am not a shell manifested by a psychotic power! I am Cronus! I am the God of Destruction!" She said, her voice full of venom and anger. A moment passed where that strange lilac glow passed over her, and she was her purest form again. Any of them could sense the striking new power flowing through her. She wielded her final weapon, the supreme glaive, with a new sense of supremacy. The others knew they would have to take great measures to try to control the new force that was before them, but they couldn't help wonder if this was how they would become. Who was destined for such a potential with a magnitude of infinite rule how Hotaru expressed it? All of them stared in fear, unsure of what was to come.
