Synopsis: It has been two months after Usagi-hime's
death. Luna and Artemis are concerned for the
welfare of the scouts and the future of the
Silver Millenium. The Inner and Outer scouts,
still coping with the death of their beloved
leader, decide to take matters into their own
hands to carefully choose a leader. Problems
arise. What does Usagi-hime's spirit have to
say to Luna and Artemis? Does she have one
successor in mind? And what happens when another
evil force begins to infect the SM world and
another?
======
Ch.1-Who Shall Lead the Senshi?
Setsuna Meiou sighed sadly as she and the other
scouts discussed who should be the new leader,
succeeding Usagi. It had been precisely two
months since their leader and friend had died,
which no one understood, for the future had not
held any records of this happening.
Rei grumpily slammed her fist onto the wooden
table within her bedroom at Cherry Hill Temple.
"I think *I* should be the leader of the senshi!
I mean, I was second in command when Usagi-chan
was alive! I should be granted the position of
leader of the senshi!"
Haruka lost her edge.
"Shut up, Rei! You're way too hotheaded and
power-hungry to lead us into battle! I think
Setsuna should be our leader! She controls time
itself, damnit!"
Ami calmly set her glasses down on the table.
"We shouldn't be fighting, Haruka, Rei. We should
be focusing more on our new enemy that has risen
lately. We can discuss this later."
"We need to settle this NOW!" Rei growled.
Luna and Artemis jumped onto the center of
the oak table. "Stop it, Rei. Artemis and
I have already settled the argument over who is
to become the senshi's new leader."
Artemis closed his sapphire-blue eyes. "That
successor also has a history dealing with the
Moon Kingdom." Artemis opened his eyes. "She
is almost perfect for the job. She should
be arriving soon."
Minako's eyes flashed open at the words 'almost
perfect'. "What do you mean almost perfect?"
Makoto crossed her muscular, yet feminine, arms.
"Why did you make this decision without our
consent, Artemis?"
Luna stared straight into Makoto's jade eyes.
"Usagi's spirit told us of the girl who is to
take her place."
"U-U-Usagi-chan? She...came to you? But, why
not all of us?" Michiru looked down supringly,
and, to some extent, worriedly.
"She, as she usually would, wanted me to tell you.
She told Artemis and I last night." Luna explained.
Rei's teeth clenched angrily. "We can't just let
a person we don't even know become our leader! What
if she's an imposter?!"
Michiru couldn't take anymore of Rei's jealous and
untrusting behavior. The teal-haired violinist
stood up and slapped Rei in the face. Rei's
cheeks slowly melted from a creamy peach color
to a burning red. Rei rubbed her cheek.
"I needed that. Arigato, Michiru-chan."
"Doo atashi mashite, Rei-chan." Michiru sat back
down next to Haruka, who was still momentarily
shocked by her girlfriend's actions.
Artemis straightened his back. "Usagi's successor
goes by the name of Dederi. I'm not actually sure
of her real name...Not even Usagi knew. In the
original Moon Kingdom, Dederi was Serenity-hime's
royal bodyguard, and the most deadly soldier of the
Moon's army.
"She was reincarnated, as you all were. But, there
is something you should know about Dederi. She
is an a-"
A cascade of gunshots rang through the peace and
quiet of Cherry Hill. The senshi, thinking it
as another enemy attack, ran outside, henshin
sticks in hand. They froze as they watched what
happened next.
Dederi ran up the steps of the Cherry Hill temple,
gritting her teeth and using her trusty handguns
to shoot the men that were running after her.
"DAMN YOU ALL TO DIABLO!" The raven-haired girl
cussed as she shot two more soldiers that were
catching up to her. "SHIT!" A soldier, wearing
a black vest with gold lining and white pants,
as well as black boots, punched one of her guns
out of her left hand. Dederi high-jump kicked
the soldier as he began to pull the trigger of
his handgun, which had been aimed perfectly at
her forehead. The soldier rolled down the white
stone steps, head bleeding from the kick Dederi
had just executed. Dederi stopped at the
top of the steps and turned around, shooting
three more of the attacking soldiers in the
chest. "DAMN!" Dederi grunted as she kicked
a soldier in the you-know-where.
Dederi dropped her empty handguns and pulled
out two more that were loaded. She backflipped
swiftly onto the top of one of the Cherry Blossom
trees and shot the rest of the assaulting soldiers.
The raven-haired gunwoman put her handguns away
as she jumped down. Dederi noticed a group of
girls looking at her, as if she just destroyed the
world or something. She pulled out her guns once
more. "Omae no kurosu. No word about this gets
out or I will-" Dederi noticed a pair of cats
perched on a blond girl's shoulder. Dederi
walked forward and kneeled, her right knuckles
on the ground. "Luna-sama. Artemis-sama.
Gomen ne. I did not know you were-"
Luna smiled. "It's quite alright, Dederi. You
don't need to apologize." Luna's face grew
serious. "Did you really have to shoot those
soldiers?"
"They were sent to kill me. I had no choice."
Artemis jumped off of Minako's shoulder and
settled himself onto Dederi's.
"We need to introduce you to the other senshi,
Dederi-kun."
Dederi's monotone voice answered, "Of course."
(Back inside Rei's room)
Haruka pointed a finger towards Dederi, who
was sitting next to Setsuna with her arms crossed.
"You mean to tell me that this murderer is supposed
to lead US?!"
Michiru frowned. "Haruka-chan, please don't be
so judging." Michiru put her hand on Dederi's
shoulder. "How long have you done this 'job' of
yours, Dederi-kun?"
Dederi shook Michiru's hand off her shoulder coldly.
"Classified information, Neptune."
"Can you at least tell us some information about
yourself?" Ami asked.
"I am known as Dederi, I refuse to tell you my real
name until I completely trust you. I am the top
assassin for an organization called Romeclyst
Prevention. I was Usagi-sama's bodyguard in the
Moon Kingdom. I prefer being alone. Enough
information?" Dederi stated, her face never
changing.
"Were you and Usagi-chan good friends?"
"Ha! No." Dederi grinned amusingly.
"Luna, how the hell is she supposed to be our
leader if she didn't even like Usagi!?" Minako
asked, an agitated expression on her face.
"Listen to me." Luna ordered with a low, yet
wise voice. "She may not seem like it, but she
is the best candidate to become Sailor Moon.
She already protects the Imperium Crystal,
she knows all about her past and future, and she
has the potential. She will protect anyone she
was told to protect. She would gladly give her
life to save any of you!"
Dederi scowled. "Do I really have to wear those
skimpy outfits? Ugh, what an embarassment."
"ExCUSE me?!" Minako's anger got the better of her.
"Those are our senshi 'outfits', you monotone
gothic murderer!"
"I'm no murderer," Dederi put a gun right under
Minako's chin, pushing it slightly into her throat.
"I'm just an assassin that could pull this trigger
right at this very moment, Venus." Dederi grinned
as she put her gun back into her jacket pocket,
leaving the Ai No Megami in a state of withering
shock. "I refuse to wear those disgraceful
suits."
Makoto slammed her fist which connected with the
table, which, by the force of the hit, shook
violently like a shockwave produced by an
earthquake. [No way is this killer is to be
our leader! That just isn't possible!] "Dederi,
I REFUSE to be led by you! No matter who you
are!"
Dederi smirked, un-intimidated. "I do not care
for this, Jovian princess. You do not have to
listen to me at all. Hell, I don't even care
if you contradict me. I'm only here because I
was destined to be." Dederi heard some clatter
of footsteps coming from outside the door of
Rei's bedroom. "All of you shut up." Dederi
got out her trusty handgun and pointed towards
the wooden door and opened it. A girl stood outside
of the door, staring, but un-suprised.
"Dederi-chan, you don't have to point that gun
at me. Put it down this instant. Is that anyway
to treat your partner?" The girl mocked.
Dederi smiled mercilessly. "Ohayo, Nova.
You're late."
"Gomen ne. Enemy troops followed me." The brunette
with blond highlights explained as she crossed her
arms in annoyance.
Dederi grinned. "And that stopped you? How sad."
"Well, Whatever. So where are those senshi you
talked about meeting?" Nova asked.
Haruka stood up and stared at Nova, who, in turn,
was staring back. "How the hell did she know?!"
Luna sighed. "You were to keep this secret,
Dederi, didn't you know of that?"
"Yes, Luna-sama. But my partner finds out everything
and can keep a good secret from enemies and
everyone else. And she knows I can kill her if
she rats it out." Dederi said.
"So YOU'RE Luna. Pleasure to meet you." Nova
grinned as she slightly bowed towards the
guardian cat.
"Likewise. Now, Dederi, do you know the reason
behind Usagi-hime's death?" Everyone stared at
that question.
[How the heck is that murderer supposed to know?!]
Rei crossed her arms in aggravation.
"Yes, I do, Luna-sama." Dederi nodded.
"Care to tell us why?" Artemis asked, suprised
that Dederi knew of such a thing.
"Usagi's soul was shattered by a new enemy.
The same enemy that had killed me in my past life."
Dederi's face turned grave, her black-crimson
accented eyes were filled with hate, but she
continued. "He has the ability to go to others'
souls. The little fear within the souls amplifies
his demonic strength. He also has the ability
to create dimensional portals. I doubt that he
will stay in your world for long. He has always
been a rogue."
Dederi's hands now shook as
she clenched her teeth. Her hands slowly began
to bleed from the pressure of her own nails as
they dug into her skin.
Ami gasped. "Dederi! Matte!" Ami grabbed Dederi's
hands, which broke her from her 'trance'. Dederi's
hands were now drenched in blood. And what color
was it? black mixed with crimson red. [Black
and red blood?] Ami stared at the two-colored
blood. "I-I'll get you bandaged up."
Dederi sighed. "If you must." Suddenly
Dederi grabbed her head, and began to scream
in pain. "..Shimata...get..out of my HEAD!..
No no! Get out!....ugh....no..." Nova
hustled over to her partner.
"Dederi! No! You can win! Don't let Youhko win!
Don't lose!" Nova yelled encouragingly. [Kuso.
Why now? Which dimension is he traveling to
this time?!]
Hotaru ran over to the screaming assassin,
who writhed in unexplainable pain. "Dederi-kun!
Listen to me. Whatever is in that head, don't
listen to it!" Hotaru's hands began to glow
a mystic lavender color, and Dederi began to
glow a faint black and red color.
The other senshi watched in awe as the two
continued to glow. Dederi stopped screaming
violently, and fainted right before Hotaru
ceased to glow. Hotaru looked at Setsuna
and Luna. "We need to start packing."

AN: Did you like it? The assassin thing was a
suprise wasn't it? Who'd have thought that the
successor would be an assassin? O well, hoped you
like it. I need your help with the pairings,
not including Michiru and Haruka, cuz they're
already together! And don't even think about
pairing Relena with someone, cuz that girl is
a TOTAL @#*&% who is extremely clueless and stupid.
MUCH RELENA BASHING IN THE NEXT FEW CHAPTERS.
(*Note: I don't like Usagi that much either,
so don't expect me to bring her back from the dead.)
