Chapter 20









She rolled onto her stomach, letting out a content sigh. She snuggled deeper into the warmth that surrounded her keeping her safe and warm. She felt protected and very comfortable.

Slowly, she began to open her eyes, blinking in the morning.or was it afternoon, sunlight.

She sat up and looked at her surroundings and was shock to find out where she was.

Finding herself lying on the sweet soft grass in the middle of a meadow. Flowers of every kind surrounded her with their fragrant scent making her drowsy all over again. She stood up, cautiously as she looked around. In the distances she saw a castle towering high with its dome roof and towers with crescent moons on top of them. Pools of water laid before the castle with a walkway between them. The castle had walls surrounding it, separating it from the smaller buildings that surrounded it for miles on out.

"It-It can't be!" She exclaimed, "It was destroyed a long time ago, it cannot have been resurrected!"

"So, you've noticed, eh?" a male voice asked. "It has been a long time.Renity."

Renity turns around to see a man standing there. "Who are you!?"

He smiles, "Do you truly not remember me?" he asked with a hurt expression. "Do you not remember the time when you first came back to the dark side of the moon? Back among your own kind?"

"Dr-Drake!?" Yes, indeed, she did remember him.achingly so.



*~* Flashback *~*



Renity was excited, well, as excited as an eighteen year old can be. She was finally going back, back where she had come from.the dark side of the moon.

When the Queen had asked her to escort, not only the Princess and her court, but also Elder Venus and Pluto, she pounced on the chance to see her homeland again.

And now, here she was, standing in front of the Black moon's palace with the senshi.

Though she had refused to dress for the occasion, she had worn her finest tunic and trousers. Her outfit was black and silver with a golden crescent moon on the shoulder to let others know that she was apart of the entourage. On a belt on her side was her sword inside a scabbard. The sheath itself was mostly made of black leather with sterling silver on the either end of it. The hilt of the sword was gold with brown leather also wrapped around the handle. At the end of the hilt was a sapphire gem.

Renity had her hair in the same hairstyle she had since she could remember, no matter how many times they had told her not to wear it. Her shoes were also black leather boots that resembled jazz shoes.

She stood behind the group, allowing herself to be hidden behind them. She knew why they were there; it was to negotiate about the trade routes and what was needed and what was not and how much they were going to pay for it.

She, on the other hand, was there to see what secrets the black lunarians were harboring. Frowning, as she usually does, Renity didn't understand why she had to gather information about these people, they seemed nice enough.

*Ah, but looks can be deceiving, eh, Serenity? * She thought to herself, *You know that better than anyone. *

The group began to walk in, led by one of the soldiers and an advisor towards the throne room to greet the Queen.

Renity found herself begin entranced by the paintings and artwork as they walked down the plush hallways.

The advisor-Adzuki-turned towards the group. "I will announce you to the court." With that he turned away.

Renity said nothing but looked around in wonder.

"So, you are not from around here, are you?" A male voice asked.

She turns to see two men who looked about her age or older. "Who are you?" She asked eyeing them suspiciously.

The one that had spoken, a dark skin man that made most of them look pale in comparison, smiles at her. He had violet eyes with light blue hair streaked with black.

"I am Shaka Zygote." He told her, "This is my friend Drake Zulu."

Drake also smiled at her. Drake was almost the same height as his friend, but not as nearly as dark. His complexion was a rich brown, like cinnamon, he had amber eyes with lavender hair.

"And you would be?" Shaka asked.

"I'm Renity." She told them, not really telling them her full name. "And you are correct on your assumptions, I am not from around here..." She glances at the Senshi, "Though, I used to live around here when I was little."

Drake nods, "It's good to meet you, Renity, but now Shaka and I have to get inside." He smirked and waved a bit at her, "See ya."

Renity stared a bit and shook her head; she could not allow herself to be distracted.

"May I please introduce you to the white moon court!" Adzuki announces, bring the room to a stand still.

"Do so." Queen Lashay told him with a wave of her hand, "Proceed."

"Queen Aiko and her daughter, Princess Aphrodite of the planet Venus."

Elder Venus, aka Queen Aiko, walks in with her head held high in her eternal Senshi uniform. Her hair was the same blonde as her daughter's and she had dark brown eyes. Venus, dressed in her sailor outfit, stood next to her mother.

Both bowed towards the black Queen as she too, nods slightly and acknowledged them.

"Princess Calypso of Mars."

She did the same thing as the other two and stood beside them. It went on like that until they came to Elder Pluto.

"Queen Tokitora of Pluto."

Elder Pluto walks in with her Time Staff; her dark purple hair cascaded and moved as she did. She stared straight at the queen with her dark magenta eyes and did as the others have done.

"And." Adzuki pauses and almost gasped as he read the name, "Serenity Trinity."



There was a hushed silence as Renity walked into the room and bowed to the queen, kneeling on one knee.

Queen Lashay and her consort, Jared, sat up straight and stares at her.

"What's going on?" Princess Serenity asked Elder Pluto. "Why are they so surprised?"

"Shhh, princess and you will see." Came the answer.

Renity was becoming very nervous with all the attention she was getting. She was used to having people ignore her like she wasn't there. It had been very useful to her many of times, but now...

There were murmurs coursing through the crowd as the Queen rose from the dais and slowly walk towards her.

Everything in Renity wanted to move to run, anything but stay in her current position, but she couldn't it would be a sign of weakness, and she could not afford to show it.

The queen stood merely a foot or so away from her. "Arise, child, so that I may look at you."

Renity, unsure of what to do, stood up, her eye still cast towards the floor.

"Look at me."

She obeyed.

"Do you know who you are, child?" Lashay asked the young woman.

"I'm Renity, soldier of the white moon." She answered without emotion.

"Let me see your ears."

Renity blinks at the odd request, but did so. She pushes her hair behind her shoulders so the Queen would have a good view of them.

After a moment, the Queen nods, "So..it is true."

"What is, your majesty?" Princess Serenity asked confusedly as she looked from the queen to the person she still disliked, but not as bad as it use to be.

The Queen only stares at Renity, "You are the last of you clan, Serenity Trinity." The queen told her, "The last of the Trinity Clan. We have thought you'd died in the fire that killed your parents, but that is not so..eh?" A shadow of a smile adorns her face. "It seems, like the servants had said, the King of the White moon saved you, did he not?"

Renity only nods mutely as she was surprised by this turn of events.

*What's going on? *she wonders in bewilderment. *How do they know about Ori? *

"Well, my child, it seems that you are now the sole heiress of your family's fortune and estate."

"How did you know my family?" Renity asked, a tremor snuck into her voice, "What's going on?"

The queen looks her over once more and turns to return to the dais. "There shall be a grand banquet tonight to not only welcome those of the white moon, but the Duchess Serenity Trinity, back among her own people!"

Cheers and shouts rippled through the crowds.

Renity couldn't understand what had happened. She backed away a bit and went towards the senshi, the only familiar faces she knew since she was little.

"Did you know about this?" Nike, Jupiter, asked her.

Renity shook her head.

Elder Pluto smiles at her, "you are among you own people, Renity. You should not be afraid of them, they won't hurt you."

Renity nods slowly, "I think..I think I'll go get some fresh air." And walks off.



A pair of red eyes glows and watches the halfling walk into the gardens. He inhaled the scent around him; yes, she was in heat now. He thought with a smile, and ready to be mated.



Renity was sitting among the dark blue roses that seemed to grow abundant on this side of the moon than the other side. She shifted her position a bit feeling strange about this pulsing feeling within herself. She also noticed that it seemed hotter out here than it had before.

*When did it get so hot? * She wonders and wipes her brow of sweat.

"There you are." A husky male voice said, "I was looking for you."

She looks up and smiles, "It's only you Drake." She sighs, "I guess I don't do too well with people."

"That's understandable." He told her and sat next to her. "Are you ok?"

She shrugged, "I don't know," she admitted, "It's just..that it..." She looks at him, "Is it hotter here to you?"

He shook his head and moves closer to her and put his arm around her shoulder. He bends his head down and brushes them against her lips.

A shock went through Renity and she froze. "Wh-What are you doing Drake?!"

"What does your instincts say?" He whispers in her ear then nibbles on it. His other hand moves under her tunic and shirt and squeezes the soft mound, playing with the already harden nipple.

Renity gasps as she felt pleasure surge through her body in a tingling warm wave, mostly accumulating in the warm pit of her stomach.

Drake lays her down, continuing to nibble at her and kissing her neck and massaging her right breast. "Drake..I-I don't think..." She let out a muffled moan as he kissed her passionately on the lips; drinking in her little moans as though they were delicate, fine wine.

By now her torso was expose to the night air and slowly her pants left her. Drake's tongue moved swiftly against her nipple then taking it between his pearly white teeth bringing it into his mouth as he suckled like a hungry babe. Renity moans again touching his back and his hair. Her moans got even louder when she felt his fingers probe her nether lips and then dived inside.

She felt the blind need in her, telling her to move against his hand, wanting more of this sensation. And she obeyed her instincts and abandoned herself to the passion inside of her.

"Renity, love," Drake groans feeling her heat, "I don't think I can stand without being in you, Renity." And to show her what he meant, he undone his pants, allowing his engorged shaft to lay against her inner thigh, very near v in between her legs.

When she felt the heat, so near, yet far away, she thought she would go nuts. "Please..." she panted, "Please...Drake...."

*Must be your first heat, eh, Renity? * He thought as he moved inside of her virginal passage.

Renity thought she would've wept because of the sensation that coursed through her, even as her virginity was lost and the fact that it should have cause her some type of pain, she did not noticed any of that. The only thing she noticed was the pulsing shaft inside her. Her legs automatically went around his legs, pushing him farther inside of her.

Taking that as a sign that she was ready for him, Drake began to pushes in and out of her, slowly at first, but then it sped up, until she was writhing beneath him, softly chanting his name.

Her eyes were closed so she did not see that his were glowing dark red. "Serenity." He hisses sensing his climax, and hers as well, approaching.

Her back arched as she came and he did as well with the final thrust, they were both spent sweating and a bit tired.

And that was how she first met Drake and when she first came into heat. Something she would never, ever forget.

*~ *End of Flashback*~*



Renity looks at him, "But you died, when Beryl attacked, you had died in the war and by then.." she looks at the castle, "I was already put into the capsule."

Drake nods and put his arms around her, "Be careful, Renity," He whispers, "There are evil forces that are not only after you, but the power source of this galaxy. You must not let them sway either you or your soon-to-be mate, Onyx, for if that happens, the Senshi won't have a chance in five hells to win this battle."

She looks into his gentle amber gaze, "What's going on, Drake? Why me?"

"'Tis the prophecy." He answers, "When you were born, the Oracle predicted that you would help in deciding this galaxy..no, universe's fate. If something happens to you or Onyx...or even the Senshi, it would be catastrophic to the delicate balance of good and evil. If that balance is disrupted, Renity, then this place, the galaxy, the entire universe, shall be no more."

"All that, because of us?" She asked incredulously, "How so? What is this prophecy?!"

He smiled sadly, "I'm sorry, Renity, but you and the others must find that out yourselves, and from then on, you are on your own."

She hugged him, "I miss you, Drake." And kissed him, "I wish you were here."

"No worries love." He said, I'm always there, right here." He touched the valley between her breasts to indicant that he was in her heart. "Now, you've got to wake up, they are very worried about you and you must tell them..must warn them the danger that is coming."

"DRAKE!!!" She screams as he fades away, just like the landscape around. "DRAKE! COME BACK!!"

"Goodbye, Renity-love."

~*End*~



Kuroshi shot straight up, shaking, sweat beaded her forehead, matting her hair. She took several gulps of air, as if she couldn't breathe or get enough in her lungs.

"Kuroshi!" She heard several different voices say and the sound of feet moving towards her.

She looked to see Onyx next to her and Chibiusa with some of the Senshi with her.

"Are you ok?" Chibiusa asked. "You were out for nearly a week!"

*A week?! *

"I-I have to go!" She blurted out, trying to get out of the bed, "I have to go back!"

"Renity, lie back down, you need your rest." Onyx told her soothingly. "After you're better, then can you go."

"You don't understand!" She told him, "We have to find it! The book! It's back there!"

"Back where?" Minako asked confused, "What are you talking about??"

Kuroshi took long deep breaths, "He said that we have to find the prophecy! It's back in on the moon! We have to go there!"

Onyx looks at Ami, who nods and before Kuroshi knew it, the needle was injected into her and she fell against Onyx, who held her gently and laid her back down. He looks at Ami,

"How long?" He asked.

"Twenty-four hours."

"It would be twelve when she wakes up again, if we're lucky."

"What happened?" Rei asked, curiously. "How did she get knocked out that long?"

"She was sick after I had taken her, I didn't bring her here until a week or so later." He explained, covering Kuroshi up and wiping her brow with a cool clothe. "When she is well, we will ask her what she means."

They all nodded in agreement and left the two alone.



***



Well, it looks like he'd have to try harder. A smile slipped upon his lips, though that poison in the halfling will make her weak and more replicable to evil, it will be hard to get that black lunarian away from her. He needed to invade her dreams, taint her heart.

He was sure that his master would be pleased if he did this.

But, first, he'd have to do something about those sailors and that man...



***



Kuroshi twisted and turned in the bed before settling down in the bedding slipping into a sound slumber.

Onyx watched over her protectively, if not a bit, possessively. He brushed her bangs from out of her face, which was useless because they shifted back to their original position.

He glances out the window at the half moon. Remembering what she had said.

*'You don't understand!' She had told them, 'We have to find it! The book! It's back there!' *

He frowned at her, *The prophecy? Would that be...could it be...? * He shook his head, refusing it to go beyond that.



*~* Dream*~*



Renity was twenty; it had been two years since she had visited the black side of the moon. She had parted with Drake on the promise of coming back to him, but for now, she had to finish her duties.

She walked down the stairs, past the cameras, past the high security codes and all to reach a different level. She absently touched a scar on her hip, which was hidden under her clothes as a reminder of her last encounter with the spy called Black Phoenix. He had been a very worthy opponent that could even rival herself.

She began to walk past the training grounds but stopped to watch her fellow spies train. She hadn't been the only child that the White Moon Army had taken and trained, she was just the only one that was mixed.

She watched as Heero and Wufei at swordplay. Wufei was obviously better with a sword then Heero, but he was not as refined at computers and bombs as Heero seems to be.

She spotted the other members of the team, Relena, a honeyed blonde with dark blue eyes, watching the fight. She wasn't as good with weapons, but was fair with them. She was better with computers like Heero and good at persuasion.

Next to her was Quatre; the youngest, yet still older than Renity, with platinum gold hair and crystal blue eyes. He was nice and very polite but if ever pushed, he'd be hell on a horse.

Next to Quatre was the ever-silent Trowa. Trowa was the oldest out of all of them and had been there the longest, since he was four. Trowa had light brown hair and emerald colored eyes; he was also the tallest too.

Then there was Duo; he was the energetic one. With his long hair in a braid down his back and his indigo eyes sparkling with excitement, he was the cheerful one, though Renity never understood why.

She looks back at the fight. Wufei had onyx colored hair and dark brown eyes that were almost black. Next to Heero and Trowa, he was the most serious one of the group and liked traditional things.

Heero was giving it all he had; his Prussian eyes gave nothing away as he lurched forward with his sword. His chocolate covered hair was disheveled as ever as they fought.

*Strange, *She thought watching them with a slight nostalgia, *I've grown to call them friends and family. We've trained together, suffering the wrath of the grueling exercises and the superiors everyday for as long as we knew. Each of us has no family, nowhere to go, and are freaks of nature. * She looks at them, *All of us from different planets. Trowa's from Jupiter, Wufei's from Mars, Quatre from Mercury, Heero is from Uranus, Duo's from Venus, Relena's from Earth..and here I am, the only black lunarian, halfling of the bunch. * She bit back a sad smile, *Funny, how we are similar to the senshi, they have to live on the moon, as do we. They have to train hard to be better than the last generation, like we do and we both must be careful when doing our missions. *



"Hey, Renity?" Duo's voice broke through her thoughts, "Wanna get some chow?"

Renity snapped out of her thoughts and looked at him, "Sure." And follows the others.





That night, Renity crept through the back hallways of the palace. She moved as silently as possible until she heard something.

"My Queen, are you sure you want to do this?" Elder Pluto asked, "It would be a terrible defeat to both sides if we send the six into the future. For it is never certain about what it holds."

Renity crept nearer, listening harder with her elfin ears perked up at the Queen's reply, "I am certain, Tokitora, We must allow Heero and the others to be reborn in that time. They are the only help that that future holds, without magic. I'm certain about it."

Tokitora sighs, "If you truly believe so, then we would have to kill them and all their souls to slip through time." It was then she pauses, "And what of Serenity Trinity? What are we to do with her?"

There was a pregnant pause as the Queen thought about it. "She will have to be put into comatose sleep until it is time for her to awaken and bring about the prophecy."

"How soon should we do this?"

"Tonight, while they slumber."

"Yes, my queen."

Renity felt her heart quicken as she ran back to the buckers to warn her friends.

But it was too late; she checked their rooms only to find them empty and messy from the struggles and blood. She ran out of there, trying to get away, until she too, was caught.

"Let me go!" She yells then began to sing, "Set me down, On the ground, With the heather in my hair. Gi-"

Her singing was cut short as she was knocked unconsciousness and placed into the capsule to sleep a two thousand years as her homeland and the place she grew up with familiar faces, was destroyed.



*~* End of Dream*~*





Kuroshi opens her eyes, half expecting to be in the ancient capsule, but only to find herself in the same room as before. She felt a warm body beside her shift and more to accommodate her.

That's when she felt the nibbling of teeth against her neck.

"It's time to give you the second mark, Renity." His husky voice whispers in her elfin ear.

That's when she felt it, his teeth sinking into her skin, drawing blood from the wounds.

He pressed his wrist against her lips, "Drink." Came the command and she could do not, but do as he suggested.

She drank, and drank deeply until he pulls away, his eyes glowing red with satisfaction.

He pulls her against his half nude body, kissing her hard.

She tasted the metallic sweet taste of her blood mixed with his own.

Something about it felt sacred, like it was very important that she did as he bid.

Though they did not make love that night, Kuroshi slept more peacefully than ever since she was a little girl. She felt safe, warm, and protected in his arms.

***

"Damn it!" Shikaze yells, "That-that..!"

He punched a hole into the tree that he was perched in, allowing his fist to come out the other side.

"How?! I gave enough of the poison in that bitch's food to make her too weak to share blood! Now there's only one step left and if I blow it, I'm dead."

With that he disappears.

Evil







Most believe that evil are the essences which all things that are harmful come from.

Some say that without it we would be better off, while other say that without it we would be lost.







It seems that this cycle, good vs. evil, will forever be in motion. Just like water, it will keep going until it cannot anymore. But like with all things, there must be a balance to keep them from colliding or taking over completely, damaging all life within the Universe.







The Caldron, which all stars are born from, is a neutral place for both sides. Now, if the evil beings realize what power they have, the true power all beings have within themselves, then the universe, as we know it, is doom.







It is the same for good. From good comes evil, like a light with a shadow and since the brightest light has the darkest shadow, there must be a mediator; one that is neither nor on either side. This person or thing is neutral and must decide who shall rule for the time and when the change shall come.







With the person comes a heavy responsibility for ties they have with either side mustn't distract them.







And so... the cycle shall continue with a solo guardian to watch over it. Keeping the balance between good and evil so they shall equal out and the universe shall have its cosmic flow.
