Mistress of Ice: Thankyou for your review, and thankyou for telling me about the typos I made. Step back, step back. I can be a real dummy sometimes* I really don't mind people pointing this stuff out, and I always miss-spell things or miss punctuation marks. I'm not really sure how you spell Usagi's last name. I've seen it spelled two different ways. Please anyone who bothered to read this and knows the exact way to spell Usagi's last name, show me in the review.

minimerc: That's alright, thankyou, and thanks for your review!

Roll_Iris: Yes, I guess that doesn't happen. Thanks for your review!

Kaiya: Well, I'm putting the story line as Hotaru being reborn. Lets just say it's been two years and she has continued to grow rapidly untill she is at the age of 13, like in sailor stars, and her father is left in tha dark. Thankyou for your help and your review!

Dr. Cricket: Thanks for the review!

Tenshi-Hotaru: Thankyou for your help and for your review!

Chapter 21
_____________________________

"Maybe if you manage to survive the youma I will honor you with fighting my warriors. For now I think I will watch."

Mercury couldn't understand. Why would he let her be left alone with the jewel. She could destroy all of his youma with it.

'Wait,' she thought, trying to remember the dream she had.

'I can't control it,' she realized, 'I never had time to learn, and he knows.'

The youma all suddenly came at her, and she was knocked ot the floor and cut, snapping out of her thoughts.

She jumped up, and silently formed her ice dagger, slashing at youma as they approached.

Some of them just used energy attacks which whizzed by her nad her friends, while she met up with a few youma like the ones she had beat, with arrows, daggers, swords and some who threw lightning and fire.

Bassically, the scouts and Tuxedo Mask felt it a massacre on their behalf. They could hardly defend themselves, as there were too many youma to look out for each other, or themselves. The enemy had known how to get to them. Their method of teamwork had been cut off, and the enemy had planned it that way.

However, Mercury did know that to create all these youma the youma had to be as weak as the youma were the day they had fought mistress 9 and had kept the youma contained within the college limits.

The youma did a lot more damage because they carried weapons, but they would be easy to destroy. If only she had a chance to use some of her wider spread powers, but a couple of seconds of not slashing vigorously at the youma meant certain death.

She screamed as and arrow hit her side. But she was unable to persue the youma shooting the arrows, she was too concerned with the ones on the ground carrying swords and throwing fire and lightning.

She couldn't see her friends to see if they were ok, all she could do was pray as she fought. This was not her kind of battle. There was no time to strategize.

Several attacks hit her at once, and she sank to her knees, trying to use her speed to get out of the way of the sword coming down at her. She only managed to escape so it would hit her upper leg. HSe let out a scream as it made contact.


Franticly, she made her dagger extend and she slashed the youma away. She felt the air around her grow hotter. Oh great.

She quickly tryed to get out of that spot but realized it was in vain when the whole area got hot. Fire was spread around the whole fighting area. Now it would burn her to leave the small square they were fighting in. Mercury knew her friends didn't have the speed she had. Right now, it was up to her. SHe braced herself and ran, her speed making her seem like a blur and cried out as she broke through the fire outlining the edges. She stopped to take a breath.

"Abandoning your friends Mercury. How pitiful," Lord Jinuy said with a sneer.

"Not quite," she answered.

"Shine Aqua Illusion," she spun around and did one of her older attacks. She fired it at the group. The fire was put out and the youma who were made of and throwing fire were gone. She could just barely spot her friends in the huge crowd. One more.

"Mercury Aqua Rhapsody," she screamed, forming a harp. This time, she concentrated more of her energy than ussual into the harp and when she let out the wave of water, she was abke to take out a quarter of the youma. Lord Jinuy looked up suddenly interested.

Her friends used this to there advantage and started firing their attacks.

"Mars Raging Fire," sailor Mars said, spreading out her palms forward, using her newest attack.

"Jupiter thunder and lightning strike!" Lightning started crackling around Jupiters body untill she released it outwards.

"Venus heart wave(sorry it's so dumb)," A large heart shaped ball of energy formed in venus's hand. She moved her hands outwards, and it expanded with her, untill she realeased it. It took out the last of the youma.

Moon, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Mars, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and Tuxedo mask all ran to each other and stood in a line backed away from the 10 warriors and their lord.

"I am impressed," he said with a low chuckle.

They all backed away.

"Well, at least you managed to destroy THOSE youma. Now you can face my fighters. Mercury, I suppose by now you've realized that you don't know how to use the jewel. It's quite simple, really. You need someone who is truly good but has the blood of man on his or her hands to help you bring out the jewels power. Only then can you use it alone. The only people I know of like that have been returned to their own demension."

They all quickly grouped up.

"Mercury," someone whispered.

Mercury turned to look at Sailor Moon.

"I figure that our only chance to survive here is to get you to see if you can get one of the pilots help and see if you can work the jewel. I can't risk anything happening to Mini Moon, and Saturn is too weak from the last battles to fight. She's only 13, and I know if she gets out here she'll use her deadliest attack. Were gonna try to pull this off with out sacrifice, when I say so, run to the shelter, and we'll stall them," Sailor Moon said. Mercury nodded.

"Hey, ugly warriers. Yeah, I'm talkin to you idiots up there. Why don't you come down her and fight, we all really wanna see how GREAT you are, Jupiter said right under to where Lord Jinuyt floated. his warriors looked angry. Sailor moon nodded to Mercury. As soon as the group ran to stand behind Jupiter, Mercury used her speed to zip to the entrance of the shelter and run down the stairs. She had to be quick.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

She got down the stairs, and started looking around franticly. There were so many people down there. It got a little bit quieter as people stopped talking to look at her.

She ran around, searching for the G-boys. People continued to speak now, and she heard people murmering ,"Sailor Mercury."

She spotted a ridiculously loud group.

'That has to be them.'

She got closer and realized it was. Her mother and Usagi's family were next to them as well. She didn't want to get everyone involved, but had to hurry.

"Heero," she called, approaching him. The Gundam Pilots all turned.

"A- Sailor Mercury, what are you doing down here?," Duo asked.

Heero turned and his mouth popped open. Mercury was an even bigger mess than she had been that day they had helped her after she had gone into the empty office and had been ambushed.

Her uniform was covered in blood, and she was burnt and cut all over. She had deep wounds in her stomach, arms and les, and a gash on her forehead. She looked worn out and frustrated.

"I need your help. I can't control the jewel. You have to help me bring out the jewel's power," she said.

"But how," Heero asked.

She pulled out the jewel. It glowed dully.

"Place your hands over it, one of you, and concentrate," she said. Heero stepped forewards right away, and did as he was told.

"Ok, um- concentrate on focusing your energy on the jewel," she instructed.

"Mercury, i don't have any," he said, looking at her.

"You do, it's hidden inside you. You were after all alive in the Silver Milenium. Now, concentrate," she snapped. He did so, and the jewel glowed a little bit brighter. She placed her hands over it as well, and a beam of light exploded from it.

Heero slowly removed his hands, and it continued to glow in Mercury's.

She seemed transfixed by the light it gave off.

A small smile came to her face.

"Thanks, I have to go. Take it easy you just gave up some of your energy," she said rushing off.

The gundam pilots frowned, as Heero sat down, suddenly extremely tired.

"Well, that was strange. Then again.." Duo started.

Everyone standing in the group smacked him in the back of the head.

Mercury raced back up the steps and outside. She ran right into her group. Her friends had done unfortunatly done poorly. Moon, Jupiter, Venus, Tuxedo Mask, & Mars were unconsious. Uranus, neptune, and Pluto weren't unconsious, but were down on the floor. Their eyes were open. They weren't unconsious, but hadn't the strength to get up. Worst of all, the warriors hardly had a scratch on them.

"There you are Mercury. Did your guilt get to you," taunted Lord Jinuy.

"Nothing got to me, because I wasn't running away," she answered. The jewel flew from her hand and went into the stone on her Tiara.

"Ahh, you've powered the jewel. That Jewel is so cute and nifty, it goes practiaclly anywhere," lord Jinuy said with a smirk.

Mercury stepped back. All 10 warriors floated down to the floor in front of Mercury. Uranus, still consious on the floor, screamed, "No! Mercury Run!"

Mercury looked toward where Uranua lay.

"A question, if you will. Call it a last request," she told Lord Jinuy.

"What."

"Well, once you've destroyed The sailor scouts, what do you plan to do? Just kill everyone on Earth?"

"Yes, that's sounds fine to me," he answered with a smile.

"hmmm," Mercury continued to talk and Lord Jinuy started getting frustrated as she spoke.

"Your stalling!"

Meanwhile, the Gundam Pilots, who couldn't just sit around in the shelter worried, snuck out of the door.

His warriors flew at Mercury, and using her speed she avoided them. All 10 floated in a circle around her. They raised their arms, and fired energy form their palms. It all hit Mercury head on, and she sank down to her knees, but she concentrated, and her Tiars exploded with power from the jewel, knocking all the warriors back and stopping the attack.

"Well well well, that Jewel is quite the weapon. I'm slightly impressed," Lord Jinuy commented.

Mercury jumped to her feet and looked around. Lord Jinuy's warriors seemed to have spotted what she had seen.

The Gundam Pilots were hiding in a tree. Duo and Wufei were arguing, and Quatre was telling them to be quiet. They seemed to notice that it had gotten quiet and stopped.

"Kill them," Lord Jinuy said. One of his warriors started firing at the tree.

"NO!" Mercury ran to stop the one warrior, a fuscia haired girl with cold black eyes and no smile on her face.

She jumped on her and knocke dthe wrarior to the flor. they started fighting for a few minutes, until Mercury was knocked away by the warrior. Luckilly, it was just the time the Gundam Pilots needed to escape from the tree and run somewhere else, unseen but watching.

Mercury jumped up, and faced the warriors. They all snickered.

All of the other scouts and Tuxedo Mask she found standing behind her.

"Were not down yet, Jinuy. Earth will never fall to you," Moon yelled.

"Tell you what, if you beat my ten warriors, I will simple leave," Jinuy said.

"no more of your cheap tricks, your going down today," Venus yelled.

"Sorry, I can't have that happen," Lord Jinuy said. He snapped his fingers, and Mercury rose up into the air.

"I cam e here for one thing and that was the jewel," he said, jumping into a poratl and taking Mercury with him.

"No!," yelled Heero. He jumped through the portal just as it dissapeared.

"Mercury," called Jupiter.

The other Gundam pilots ran out from behind the bushes and stood behind the sailors, facing the warriors.

----------------

Mercury fell through the portal onto hard ground, and Heero fell in after her. Lord Jinuy floated above them.

"No more games Mercury. Give me the jewel and I will spare him. You know you are in no condition to fight me, and even if you were at your full strength and using the jewel, you woudln't be able to defeat my power," he said with a laugh. Mercury stood back, pushing Heero behind her.

"Just leave this worl be, Jinuy. Just because your mother was an evil witch doesn't mean you have to follow in her footsteps," she said.

"Cut the crappe, I'm tired of this. Hand over the jewel," he said.

Mercury sighed.

"Fine, I'll just come get it," he said jumping at her and attacking her. He started firing blast after blast at her. She screamed as they made contact, but made an effort to keep them away from Heero. Heero couldn't stand it any more.

Jinuy fired his final, deadliest attack. Mercury couldn't dodge this one. She closed her eyes and waited. And waited.

She cracked open an eye. Heero stood in front of her, breathing hard and having taken the hit himself. He hit the floor.

"No! Heero," she said getting down next to him. He wasn't moving. She felt around for a pulse, and couldn't find it.

She quietly dropped his hand and looked down. At tghe moment, his limp hand hitting the floor was the loudest sound. Tears came to her eyes. Lord Jinuy errupted in laughter. She scowled and stood up.

"You were right about one thing Jinuy. I am at the moment, too weak to control the jewel and use it to it's full potential. I'm sorry I ever created the jewel in the silver millenium. My weapon of defense has created a nightmare. I should have done this in the beggining," she said.

She placed her hand over her tiars, and her jewel appeared.

"Ahh, so I see your finnally going to hand it over. Good choice Mercury. too bad it didn't save your boy friend over here," Jinuy said with a laugh. She closed her hand over the jewel.

"Now, be a good little girl and hand it over," he answered.

She raised her hand in the air, and Jinuy approached to take the jewel, but as soon as he got close enough, she threw it on the floor. Lord jinuy's eyes widened as he dived for the jewel. He missed. It exploded on the ground in thousands of tiny pieces.

"NOOO!" Lord Jinuy screamed.

"You've ruined everything you little Witch! I am going to make sure you don't leave this room alive, even if it costs me my LIFE!"

He started to scream, gathering his power, Mercury sooted away, grabbing Heero's body in an atempt to save it.

Lord Jinuy seemed to explode with power. He smiled at her in an evil sort of way, and the room rippled with energy. A huge power engulfed the room, and behind Mercury, a portal opened up, and she fell back wards through it still holding onto Heero so his body wouldn't be fried.

Lord Jinuy had destroyed himslef, but he hadn't taken Mercury with him. Pluto had saved her. As soon as Lord Jinuy supposedly died. His warriors turned into dust. They were actually parts of him. Thats why they were so powerful.

Her and her friends gathered around Heero, who suddenly opened up his eyes. She jumped back in shock.

The Jewel. When it exploded, it had somehow brought Heero back to life.

Everyone smiled happily. The war was over, and hopefully, so were their problems.

Everyone left to go tell the people in the shelter they could leave.

Heero turned to look at Mercury,a nd this time, Mercury leaned in and kissed him.
