Crimson Tears

Chapter 1: The first death of a sailor soldier! The first Crimson Tear!

Haruka walked up the muddy path to the park with a tiny umbrella. It was raining, lightly and heavily, on and off. No sun all day. Mirchu had taken her favorite umbrella to her tour, in Ireland. Of course, sooner or later she would be taking the world tour.

SOMEONE would probably give her a new contract, and say, "Mrs. Mirchu, I'm (whoever) and I love your music! I would like to offer you a (whatever) blablablablabla! Same thing every time at the end of a concert, Haruka had the same thing happen to her at the end of her racecar meets.

But tomorrow would be extra special. Mirchu would be coming back from her Ireland tour, and Haruka could pick her up at the airport, and that will be the first time she'd see her since 5 weeks ago. She admitted, she had been pretty busy herself, but most of her racecar season hadn't really started for the most part.

Still, she hadn't seen the inner senshi for months. After the Galaxia incidents, and Serena's wedding, they didn't see each other. Yes, it has been Setsuna, Hotaru, and I for a long time." Haruka thought to herself. "How many months has it been, or has it been years? She didn't seem to remember, she could ask Setsuna back at home, for she had always been keeping track.

"Serena, how I miss your sweetness you brought. To everyone, to all our hearts." Haruka sighed, knowing that she'd probably never see her again. But what if she did? She would love to see her still.

Haruka sat down on the park bench, mashing her feet into the mud. "There is not much to do today." Haruka sighed. She had cleaned her house from top to bottom this morning, rearranged every book on the shelves, and played with Hotaru for 3 hours straight. Had lunch. Cleaned all of the instruments. And now? Now sitting out in the park. She was bored quite frankly.

She walked back to her car, and shut herself inside. "At least I won't have to walk with this dumb umbrella!" Haruka sighed, and drove to the nearest dump and threw it away. She turned on the radio, and listened to Avril Lavigne. "Oh! My World's on!" Haruka looked surprised, they hadn't really played this Avril song.

Please tell me what is taking place,

Cause I can't seem to find a trace,

Guess it must've got erased somehow,

Probably cause I always forget,

Everytime someone tells me their name,

It's always gotta be the same.

(In my World)

Never wore cover-up,

Always beat the boys up,

Grew up in a 5000 population town,

Made my money by cutting grass,

Got fired by fried chicken ass,

All in a small town, Napanee. You know I always stay up without sleepin',

And think to myself,

Where do I belong forever,

In whose arms, the time and place? [Chorus:]

Can't help if I space in a daze,

My eyes tune out the other way,

I may switch off and go in a daydream,

In this head my thoughts are deep,

But sometimes I can't even speak,

Would someone be and not pretend? I'm off again in my World I never spend less than an hour,

Washin' my hair in the shower,

It always takes 5 hours to make it straight,

So I'll braid it in a zillion braids,

Though it may take all friggen day,

There's nothin' else better to do anyway. When you're all alone in the lands of forever,

Lay under the milky way,

On and on it's getting too late out,

I'm not in love this time this night. [Chorus:]

Can't help if I space in a daze,

My eyes tune out the other way,

I may switch off and go in a daydream,

In this head my thoughts are deep,

But sometimes I can't even speak,

Would someone be and not pretend? I'm off again in my World (la la la la) Take some time,

Mellow out,

Party up,

But don't fall down,

Don't get caught,

Sneak out of the house. [Chorus:]

Can't help if I space in a daze,

My eyes tune out the other way,

I may switch off and go in a daydream,

In this head my thoughts are deep,

But sometimes I can't even speak,

Would someone be and not pretend? I'm off again in my World Can't help if I space in a daze,

My eyes tune out the other way,

I may switch off and go in a daydream,

In this head my thoughts are deep,

But sometimes I can't even speak,

Would someone be and not pretend? I'm off again in my World ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ End of: My World by Avril Lavgine (DO NOT OWN!!!!!!!)

"Wow.haven't heard that for a while." Haruka turned the corner to her house and got out to see Hotaru greet her with a friend. "Haruka! Haruka!" Hotaru grinned widely. Haruka smiled at her appearance and lifted her into her arms. "So whom did you bring over today?" Haruka laughed. "Hi! I'm Chiri!" A girl with blue ocean eyes appeared with golden long hair, (Down to waist) and an ocean blue dress curtseyed.

All of a sudden, a power shot through Haruka. She saw a short vision:

The time is coming. The time you, and you alone, shall stand alone, amiss of the destruction upon you. Where you shall gain great wonders, and lose great loss. It's all up to you now, Haruka. For you to choose to live in a world that will turn upside down soon enough." Haruka foresaw herself in a great pile of rubble, crying over something terrible. The girl, who told her this, had long hair, similar to Rei's, but gold. And her eyes. Her eyes were stone cold.

With a sudden jolt, her vision ended. She sprung up from the ground, apparently dazed. She looked around, yet saw no rubble. "Haruka? Are you ok? You fainted!" Hotaru looked upon the dazed wonder.

"I'm fine, Hotaru. I.Just need some rest." Haruka limped toward the door, grabbing the knob like a cane. She flung herself on top of her bed, as soon as she went inside the house. Setsuna was in the bedroom, typing up a basic listing of the materials she used for Serena's wedding dress. She designed it. She was what she always wanted to be, a fashion designer.

"What the heck happened to you? You look as if a yoma came in and blast you into a million pieces!" Setsuna laughed, thinking like THAT would ever happen. "And they said you were supposed to be a wise and KIND senshi!" Haruka said, and rolled over on her stomach, searching for the covers. "No, really. What happened to you?"

Haruka found the covers on the ground and rolled into bed. "Have you been having any visions lately Setsuna?" "No. Not really. I haven't had any for a long time." Setsuna sat on Haruka's bed. "Have you? Haruka?" Haruka was silent for a moment, and then got up.

"You.you know Hotaru's friend who came today? When I saw her I had a vision. It said. The time is coming. The time you, and you alone, shall stand alone, amiss of the destruction upon you. Where you shall gain great wonders, and lose great loss. It's all up to you now, Haruka. For you to choose to live in a world that will turn upside down soon enough." I foresaw myself in a great pile of rubble, crying over something terrible. The girl, who told me this, had long hair, similar to Rei's, but gold. And her eyes. Her eyes were stone cold.

I.I don't know." Haruka looked at Setsuna. "Do you know anything, anyone.any time like that? Setsuna's smile slowly vanished, and she stood up.

"Haruka. I cannot tell you the future. The future is decided by the present. As so the past. It is up to today, to create tomorrow. Anything from today can be differed tomorrow. It is.Up to you. To create your destiny." Setsuna turned around and said strongly, "And sometimes.it might alter the things around you. But thus, you mustn't give in. Never, not for what you believe in." Setsuna walked to the computer, but added, "Even if. You're the ones you loved, didn't.feel the same. For what you say, could be the most right thing of all." With that, she smiled. She continued her list, do to her boss tomorrow.

Haruka thought, "Setsuna.Sometimes, you do seem as if you know powers, beyond the other senshi, even Hotaru. Sometimes I wonder. Are you a bright star? As bright as Serena? Your power is so close.so wise, and yet. also so far. Far from others. When we are alone, we aren't for." Haruka remade her sloppy bed and before exiting added, "You have always been watching us." Haruka walked down to the kitchen, to fix herself a snack. She made pasta, and ate it almost as fast as Serena. But only stopped because she was starting to choke on the noodles.

Hotaru came running in with Chiri, grabbing all the chocolate syrup available, (4 bottles) and ran up to Haruka. "Haruka! We wanna get hyper on chocolate!" Haruka practically fell over at their remark. "Um.Ok! Why?" Haruka asked oddly, at their oddness. "Cause, we saw it on TV!" Haruka sighed at their remark.

"You KNOW everything on TV isn't real right?" Haruka blurted out. "Yes! But Johnny Bravo did it on cartoon network!" Chiri slammed. Haruka thought, "Boy, they must really be stupid!" But despite her objections, she said yes. (Mirchu wouldn't say YES!) So they hurried outside, and started spraying each other with chocolate syrup until the neighborhood kids came over with more, until there was a huge chocolate fight in their backyard.

But then there were screams. Ear scattering screams and screeches with sounds of bones snapping and people collapsing on the floor. "What the?" Pluto heard as well. They both transformed and went on the roof to get a good angle on the situation.

"Uranus World.SHAKING!" A glowing gold planet-like shaped energy hit a woman with golden hair and stone eyes. But then again, it didn't. The woman disappeared, and reappeared 10 spaces to the left, making the attack hit a bunch of trees in the back. "Who's here?" The golden beauty looked around nervously.

As usual, whenever the outers appeared, a few rose petals flew by, and Uranus started the intro. "How dare you steal the souls and energy of these young people? I, soldier of the heavenly planet Uranus, Sailor Uranus shall challenge your ways with my power.

Then, Pluto stood behind her, appeared and did her intro. "Time can see through everything, and even the error of your evil ways. I, the soldier of time, Sailor Pluto shall destroy you with the power of time!"

"How nice, yet you won't be joining me in my heavenly space ship." The golden haired beauty eyed the two soldiers. "Now it is time to destroy you. I must destroy every one who gets in the way of our true mission." The golden haired girl's blue eyes twitched for a moment, and then she raised her hands up in a blast like pose. "Air Blade!" In a mere second, *literally* Haruka saw a small, yet hard crystallized energy created in the woman's hands and the next second, it was blasted at Sailor Pluto. Unfortunately, Pluto hadn't seen it coming.

Almost as if everything were in slow motion, Haruka saw it hit Setsuna, her falling off the roof, unscrewed in pain. Haruka's eyes could only watch, yet something inside her before had told her to do nothing. "S-Setsuna!" Haruka stuttered, and went to aid Sailor Pluto.

Setsuna stood, shouting at the blond killer who struck her, "Garnet Blade!" A huge crystallized shard struck the girl, leaving a blooded figure on her face, soon to be a scar. "My face! How could you do that to my beautiful face? Your nothing but a child!" The golden girl screeched in pain. Yet obviously she was no yoma. She screamed, and knelt down. "Air Shards!" The golden enemy stammered, making several knives fly into Sailor Pluto's stomach, and heart. She was going to die.

Setsuna fell to the ground of the roof, in pain. Pluto tried to say an attack, but her soul couldn't focus enough to get the words out. "Haruka." Setsuna said, her eyes falling. Haruka ran to her side. "Setsuna!!! What? How?" Haruka couldn't say anything, she was too surprisingly sorrowed, and amazed from Setsuna, she couldn't speak.

Pluto spoke, "Haruka.I. Shall not live this day, thus no longer. But. I must give thee who stands before me, a present of destiny. Pluto coughed, and it seemed as if it was garnet red.The blood that was flowing from her. Amazingly, the power was still draining from her, so Pluto became a bunch of ribbons. (The way Sailor moon looks when she is naked, and the ribbons flowing from her brooch. You get the picture)

But, the ribbons that flew from Pluto, where garnet. There was a gem, but not in her brooch. It was in her staff, in the garnet orb, shining garnet.

"Haruka. Take this. This is the energy of the entire planet, Pluto. It's soul, and life rests in this. As I, the solid guardian guarded this." Pluto eyed the staff, and it flew over to her. "Release the power of Pluto, the energy from within. That all stars are born with, the love and hatred thin." A little garnet gem flew out of the staff, with great garnet light. It was in a sphere shape, and gem cut. Pluto placed the gem into Haruka's hands. "Take this.And Promise me. Never forget me, Haruka. Your destiny awaits." Pluto's smile looked at Haruka. Haruka smiled back. "I would. Stake my life on it. I promise, I won't forget y-you Pluto." Haruka's eyes filled up with sadness. "Thank you." Pluto glanced at Haruka. Her eye's dead close; she died in Haruka's arms.

Haruka did nothing for a moment. Then she screamed out loud, the pain filling her." SETSUNA!" Haruka screamed, the enemy gone, yet taking Setsuna's life. It wasn't a worthy battle. Not if she had to lose Setsuna. She remembered what the vision said: the time is coming. The time you, and you alone, shall stand alone, amiss of the destruction upon you. Where you shall gain great wonders, and lose great loss. Haruka thought to herself, not knowing what was coming next. But as she looked down at Setsuna, she saw Setsuna have a Crimson Tear run down her face.

And that, my fellow readers, was the beginning. Of the Crimson Tears.

To be continued.
