Chapter 7: Secrets and Truths
(Last Time)
"Welcome to my domain. It is truly magnificent isn't? Did you see all
the star seeds on your way in? They are an work of art, the energy and
purity of all the galaxies that I have conquered. As the saying goes,
'I came. I saw. I conquered.' Three sayings that hold so much meaning and
you know what Eternal Sailor Moon, Earth is next!"
~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~
With that, she let out a sinister laugh that trembled the base of the
structure that they were in.
"Enough of this, c'mon Venus, lets do some damage." With that the
scout of Lightning and Love charged.
"Jupiter Oak Evolution! Venus Love and Beauty Shock!"
"Uranus Earth Shaking! Neptune Deep Submerge!"
Yellow met green as aqua met orange. The two blasts cancelled each
other out as the figure on the throne was left unscarred. "My loyal servants,
you have proven yourself worthy."
Then two sailor scouts emerged from the darkness. The inners starred
in disbelief at the foreign faces but their uniforms, yellow and blue, and
aqua and blue, were unmistakenably similar to their own. Pluto and Saturn
let out a cry, "Uranus! Neptune! How could you have betrayed us?"
"Simple," said Uranus, "because we wanted a piece of ...Galaxia!!!"
As the last word escaped from the scout of wind, both Uranus and
Neptune suddenly turned and faced Galaxia. Both of their talismans were out,
and the two turned against their 'loyal' master. "Uranus Space Sword
Blaster! Neptune Submarine Reflection!"
Seeing that, Pluto quickly released the third talisman from her
garent orb and shouted "Chronos Typhoon!" (an: Special thanks to Solus Nox
for sending me the link.)
As the attacks from the Talisman Carriers were unleashed, Galaxia
was caught off guard. She barely had time to escape so instead she just
shield herself from the oncoming assault of bright lights. All the scouts
turned away while the attacks lasted for about a minute before the three
outers withdrawn their power. As the smoke began to clear, many fallen debris
obstructed their view. Finally, they saw that Galaxia had been buried under
a pile of rubble. No movement can be seen and for a moment, all the scouts
let out a sigh of relief.
"No! That was too easy. She would not have brought us here unless
she was powerful enough to. Be on your guard!"
As the last words escaped from Eternal Sailor Moon, it was already
too late. "Fools, you think you can destroy me with a simple blow. Have
a taste of real power!"
She unleashed a wave of dark energy but Eternal Sailor Moon was ready
to counter, "Starlight Moon Therapy Kiss!"
However, what she was not prepared for was that Galaxia had turned
around to release not one but three energy blasts towards the three talisman
holders. Though, Eternal Sailor Moon was quick enough to counter, the
three scouts were too slow to defend. All hit their mark, but Eternal
Sailor Moon kept up her attack with the use of her tier. An explosion
followed with the attack but to the horror of all the scouts present,
Galaxia only came away with a few burns and scars and was still standing.
The inners rushed to their fallen comrades: Pluto, Neptune and Uranus.
All had severe wounds at the front side of their body. Their strength had
been greatly diminished with the use of their talisman but Uranus and Neptune
had previously fought Galaxia. "Princess... I'm sorry to have failed you..."
"No, save your strength Uranus. You have fought bravely even in the end
and your loyalty has never failed me."
"Tha..nk... you."
With that the scout of wind and sky died with surrounded by a series of
bright lights. Her starseed shot upwards towards Galaxia. Though it seemed
to put up a struggle before falling into the foe's grasp.
"No...Uranus, my love!!!"
All turned toward the scout of the sea as she reached towards where
Sailor Uranus once laid. Her eyes were clouded with tears and her other hand
clutched at her heart as she too disappeared in a ray of bright lights. Her
starseed also shot upwards to join that of her lover's.
"I am the last to fall...I must go join them. I am sorry, my Princess
Serenity."
"Pluto... no, how many times must I..."
"You will always be Princess Serenity in my eyes..."
Finally the last talisman holder, scout of time died serving her
Princess. Her starseed was also captured by Galaxia. "You see how pitiful
your attempts. Your starseeds will eventually be mine."
"No, we will not go down without a fight!"
"Mars is right! Earth is not going fall into hands of evil like you.
You have to get through me first before you get to Eternal Sailor Moon."
Both Venus and Mercury nodded their heads in unision at Mars and Jupiter.
Before Eternal Sailor Moon could object, the original four scouts of Silver
Millennium then powered up for their greatest attack. "Mercury Crystal
Power! Mars Crystal Power! Venus Crystal Power! Jupiter Crystal Power!"
Blue, red, yellow and green power beams shot up above the group as they
met in a single point. That point gradually magnified and shot towards
Galaxia. It produced a magnificient ivory coloured glow as it aimed toward
the golden warrior. Galaxia had to shield herself against the cannon of
light. It caused a burning sensation to her armour and penetrated to her
body. She let out a scream in agony and the inners poured every ounce of
energy into their attack until one by one they fell to the ground in
exhaustion. Eternal Sailor Moon rushed forward but before she even reached
there, Galaxia chose that moment to aim her dark energy towards the four
inner scouts. Seeing that Sailor Saturn called out her Silence War but
Galaxia's attack was too fast. The ground beneath them shook and all four
scouts were left defenceless.
Eternal Sailor Moon went to the first scout closest to her. She
cradled Sailor Mercury, Genius Amy. Sailor Mercury, Amy looked at her first
friend and she whispered, "Thank you... for being my first friend... for
liking me for me..."
That was the end of Sailor Mercury as her star seed too joined those
before her. Eternal Sailor Moon turned to Sailor Jupiter. "Lita, Jupiter
please hold on."
"No, Sailor Moon. You know that I can't. I'm sorry we couldn't make
any more cookies together ..."
"I'm going to miss you ..."
The scout of electricity and nature smiled briefly before disappearing
herself. Venus was also disappearing, but she left, she winked at Sailor
Moon. "Don't worry ... I'll come back as long as there are guys out there..."
If the situation wasn't so serious, Eternal Sailor Moon would have
laugh but she had to get to Sailor Mars. She held Mars head in her lap liked
she did with Mercury.
"Serena. I'm sorry for hurting you before. I'm sorry for leaving the
scouts. You are best ... friend. I'm ..."
"I know that Mars. You came back and that means that our friendship,
your obligation as a scout has lasted across time. That's all that matters.
You are my best friend too. Don't forget that."
With that Mars succumbed to the darkness around her and all that was
left in Eternal Sailor Moon's hand were tears, her own tears. Suddenly, an
alarm went off in her head as she turned around to see Tuxedo Mask who had
been quiet had taken the attack that was meant for her. He fell backwards,
his mask and top hat had been discarded. His ocean blue eyes stared up
at her azure ones. "Why?" she asked.
It was such a simple question yet it had such a difficulat answer.
"I have... never stopped loving you. Our love has just simply changed across
time but I still care for you, very much. That's why I had to come back ...
just one last time."
A single red rose was left behind where the Earth Prince once were. That
was the last draw for Eternal Sailor Moon. She had just all of her friends
sacrificed their lives for her. She let out a cry, tears cascaded down her
cheeks "NNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Saturn wrapped her arms around her princess. She too was mourning the
loss of her friends, though she was not as close to them but her heart yearn
for them.
However, in the midst of it all, Galaxia watched on. Unfazed, by the
tears and she felt no remorse for killing the lives of eight people so
colding and unjustly. "Why must you fight still when your lives are already
predetermined? You will die as those before you, as those who had tried to
save their planet and failed miserably."
Both Saturn and Moon turned towards her, shock written on their faces.
"You weren't the only ones who had tried and died. No, let me show you. Look
outside towards the moon. I'll show you how I had taken down each galaxy."
The two scouts had no choice but to obey and it was though they had
travelled through a portal of time. Images of people burning with the fires
unleashed by Galaxia, dying as they clutched theirs loved ones. Men and
women even children whose eyes widened as they stared at the approach of
death. Their starseed released and captured by Galaxia to build her umpire.
Her voice could be heard in the back of their minds, "I was once
beautiful, so pure with goondess. I was liked you, a Sailor scout but
I realized that it was useless because the world is filled with chaos. Evil
will always reside in our hearts and it was only a matter of time before
we are overtakened by our own evils. That's why I decided to take away that
very essence, the starseed that controls everything. The last dimension that
I had taken over, the colonies and planets were in a neverending battle.
Only five soldiers, five boys against millions who are driven by greed.
Those five boys had stood by their beliefs but they are fighting a losing
battle..."
As she uttered those words, Moon and Saturn saw their last battle
replayed before them. Moon recognized this from her dream. Five machines
blasted towards space, but little did they know a great evil was fighting
for them beyond the darkness of space. All of a sudden, one of them was hit
from behind and all of them backed into a stance.
For a moment, Moon felt herself holding herself holding her breath when
all hell broke loose. Attacks came from all different directions and all the
machines dispersed each fighting their own battles. One machine adorned in
the colours of green and yellow (an: Wufei's) had an extendable arms that
were fighting off Galaxia's minions. Off to its right, another machine in
the colours of mainly black and red were slashing its enemies with a glaive
similar to the one that Saturn had (an: Duo). Above them was one in black
and white (an: Quatre) were slitting the shadow warriors with twin swords
(?). On the its far light was a single machine in blue and white blasting
its enemies with its cannon shots. All four were fighting with a sense of
vigour and intensity. Moon then noticed a solitary machine in mainly colours
of orange and red. It had the firepower and missle launches to take a series
of the enemy. Then Moon heard the pilot spoke out, "I have seen these
attacks before ..."
At that instant, she realize that she had heard that voice before, a long
time ago. She had thought it was only a dream but she knew that it was real.
Then a large shadow advanced towards the unsuspecting victim who had
momentaraily stopped its assault. Then Moon saw that it was engulfed in a
bright flash of light and its pilot called out to his comrades as his starseed
was extracted painfully from his body. As the shadow retreated, Moon finally
saw the face that had filled her mind every night before going to bed, kisses
that she longed for since *that* night, it was that of TROWA BARTON!
Afterwards, all was a blur as the remaining four pilots of those machines
also died tragically in battle as Galaxia also captured their starseeds but
at the last moment she heard Trowa uttered the one word that will change her
forever. He said her name and that was his last word ...
'He still remembers me after all these years. Oh Trowa, I have never
forgotten you either.'
~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~`~
End of Chapter 7
I know promised that this was the chapter for the final battle but then
as I was writing it, it was too long. I did reveal about Trowa and Serena,
so now she knows that it was him who she saw in her dream from previous
chapters ago. Also, I know I am totally rewriting the last few episodes of
Sailor Stars. Anyway, I am going to get the next chapter out ASAP so keep
a look out for it. Until then, peace!!
