CHAPTER FIVE
'I told you before as I tell you now I don't want you in my bed, I don't even want you in my palace, I kicked you out long ago Rei!' he growled at her mentally, this woman was infuriating. She looked at him in that odd little way of hers, Her amethyst eyes sparkling in mock tears.
'Why must you be so cruel?' she whispered wretchedly, her voice cracking slightly. 'Stop acting you wench, you think I do not know of your service and loyalty to the serenity?' his inner voice shaking with cold rage. ' You are the senshi of fire, it would take a fool not to know this.'
'I am.." she began before he cut her off, his cruel voice echoing inside her mind.
'You are a whore! You think that you attract me with your snake voice, and seductive body, I am the king, foolish woman, and can have any woman I choose, why then would I want you?' Her voice trembled inside his mind, he could see her faltering, he knew she ached to tell him that he was nothing but a job, he knew that she was burning desperately to make a fool of him. He grinned, if she dared, it would be the end of her.
"I love you," she whispered feverishly. Her real voice startling him, this woman could have been a great actress.
"You love the pleasure I can give you! You love the power I have, you love the thought of being queen, you don't love me, you don't know what love is" He responded coldly. She looked him deep in the eyes, amethyst colliding with fierce ice blue. Truly she was not anything like her queen, he thought. Her queen so innocent, so gracefully childlike, radiating peace and love, and this woman, this harpy, were nothing of the sort. Jaded, adult in every alarming way, radiating power and treachery. "You still burn from Endymion, refusing to make you a concubine, do you not?" he whispered icily. Her eyes flash in rage; he knew he had hit her weakness.
" You still burn from the fact that your mother did not want you do you not, Tranquility?" Her voice was sharp with rage. His eyes suddenly darkened, as his body trembled with anger.
"Bitch!" he growled, as he walked towards her " whore!" he brought himself in front of her "Slut" he grabbed her hair within a well toned hand, "witch" he pulled her head up to his, as he dropped his mouth on to hers in a cruel embrace. There was no passion to the kiss; it had the sound of marble against metal. A goodbye kiss, a final fare well. She felt the cold metal slice her throat, before she heard his voice whispered against her lips: "Goodbye Rei Hino" She closed her eyes, to prevent the tears from shedding, then he let her hair go, and her dead body collapsed with a soft thud on to floor beside his bed.
Rei awoke from her trance, with sweat beading down her neck. She was trebling from head to foot. Her vision still fresh in her mind, She shook her head, it was aching as if some had thrown a hard rock at it. She looked around herself uselessly, as if she half expected the silvery almost white blonde man to appear out of thin air. She groaned loudly, this was ridiculess; it was a vision, possibly even just a bad dream. Yes that was it! Perhaps somebody from some psycho thriller Mina and Serena had made her watch? She chuckled softly. Yes that had to be it. She looked down at her watch and almost chocked, it was nearly 10. The girls were going to kill her! She and the rest of the girls were going to talk to Serena, kidnapping her if necessary. She grinned widely as she thought of shoving Serena into the boot of a car.
She yawned lazily, and pulled herself out of the lotus position she was in. She stretched widely. Walking gingerly, as both her legs were a sleep. She was not paying attention, and as she turned the corner to her room, she slammed into a lanky figure. They both landed on the floor. "Watch where you're going!" A sharp voice snapped at Rei, Serena, and Rei was sure of it. " Why don't YOU watch where your going meatba.." She stopped dead in her words as she saw the tall dark haired girl. Her hair was set in Pointed Odangoes. Her eyes were storm blue. She could have been Serena's sister for the ways she looked a like, yet so different. Rei stared at the girl for a moment, unable to say anything.
" Rei Hino where the hell have you been?" Growled a furious Lita, who had obviously missed the girl lying on the floor beside her. "Well?" she fumed.
"Lay off Lita" she mumbled. The turning to the stranger on her floor, " Who are you? What are you doing here?" she questioned.
"She is a guest, she's staying here for a few weeks until she can find a place of her own, and her name is Selene" As if out of thin air Rei's grandfather appeared, a smile gracing his face. " Selene, this is my granddaughter Rei.." he stopped dead in his sentence at the sight of the pair on his floor. " What in heavens name are you two doing on the floor?" He growled.
"Having a Tea party," Rei responded sarcastically.
"I don't see any tea," he said eying the ground carefully, then with a weary smile he walked away muttering to himself about the strangeness of teenage girls. He stopped abruptly as Rei started pull herself up, looking over his shoulder with a great smile on his face he said " Rei why don't you and your friends show Selene, Tokyo, She is new here you know" Rei collapsed back on to the floor.
"But Grandpa, we were going to go over to Serena's house, can't I show her around Tokyo later?" she wined but before he had an opportunity to say anything, Selene gathered herself of the ground and spoke first.
" I don't need to be shown around, I'm already inconveniencing you enough as it is, I will find my own way around town." She said simply, the continued walking straight on wards.
" That was really mean of you Rei," chided Mina as she suddenly came into view.
" Oh so you want to drag a complete stranger to Serena's house to ask what the hell happened between her and Darien, as if we didn't know, and then have her hear the probably, embarrassing truth?" Rei retorted.
"No, but you didn't have to be so.."
"Yah well if I want your opinion.."
"At least I know.."
"You know something, I'm .."
"ENOUGH!" Lita and Ami yelled together. Stopping them for the moment. "Serena has been gone for 3 days and you lot are already attacking each other! Stop fighting, I can't stand another moment of you two!" Lita yelled.
"Likewise" Ami added in a lukewarm tone.
"Fine, I got to get changed anyways" Rei said grudgingly as she pulled herself up of the ground and walked in to her room. 10 minutes later, hair tied back, and dressed in jeans and a white tank top, Rei walked out of her room.
"My, don't you look very Lara Croft-ish, with that French braid ponytail, Rei" Mina commented.
"Thanks, you don't look so bad in that black leather mini skirt, I think I have one like that" Rei said conversationally.
"You do, this is it" Mina smiled wickedly.
"Must admit it looks better on you, keep it" Rei laughed.
"Thanks..um sorry about.."Mina Began apologetically, before Rei cut her off.
"No problem, we're all edgy especially after that.. feeling.." Rei's voice shook oddly.
"Come on we better get going" Lita interrupted.
Darien looked deep into her beautiful eyes, hating himself for making her relive it. But some part of him new he needed know. He knew that this was the only way.
"It was.." she began just as they heard a loud noise out side. Normally they would have ignored it, had they not sensed the negative power radiating. Serena looked at Darien, to confirm what she was feeling. He nodded his head. She looked away from him, and stuck her hand into her bag searching for the locket.
"Saaaailor moooon, Oh Saaaailor moooon, why don't you come out to play with me?" A slithering voice asked. High-pitched laughter echoed. Serena ran as fast as she could with tuxedo mask behind her. She felt oddly sick, as if she was going to throw up. Then turning the corner she saw a terrible travesty of child, about hundred times as big, surrounded by the inner senshi and Mini Moon.
"No, Don't hurt it!" she shrieked as loud as she could. All the scouts turn to face her. They look at her as if she has grown a second head. To Serena's utmost surprise even the Monster child was looking at her
"Sailor moon, you..you..look.." Mercury begins.
"You look like you gained about 50 pounds" Mini moon Hollers "that and you have this weird, glow thing going.." she sounded oddly in awe.
"No kidding, Sailor moon, you've really let yourself go" A sharp voice that sounds almost like Serena's calls out. Sailor moon looked up in shock, for hanging off a vertical flagpole, was a dark haired female, which was in her own usual odangoes. On her forehead burned an upside down moon, but unlike Serena's it burned black. She was wearing black pants, and a black muscle shirt, around her wrist was a dark band, and it was radiating negative force. In her other hand she held a silver pole. She spun the stick like a baton in her hand, and then pointed it at the creature. Dull silvery grey light streamed out and hit the creature square in face. In growled a little in pain but then grew. It made a grotesque sound, that could have almost been laughter, and picked up Mars. It started to play with Rei, as if she were a doll, roughly pulling on her hair, and dress. Mars shrieked in utmost horror.
"Let me go you vile creature, let me go" She screeched. She attempted to attack the creature, but her power would not work. She screamed her attack loudly. But nothing happened.
"Hades Fire" Mars screamed suddenly, as the words popped into her head. The creature screamed and dropped her it's hands burnt.
"Y..you..surrounded by flames," Mina stammered.
"Tundra Blast!" Mercury shrieked just as the creature started grabbing for Mina, freezing its eyes.
"Thor Crush!" Jupiter bellowed. A huge bolt of lighting slammed into the creature, tearing some of its skin off.
" Eros embrace " Venus yelled. Her hands crossed over chest. A clear shimmered light encases her then continues in a snake like fashion towards the monster, surrounding it completely. Then it darkens, going from clear, to silver, to grey and finally to black, the creature struggles inside trying desperately to tare itself out, then it stops all together. Slowly the aura shrinks, and with it the child within. And then the aura is gone, and in the center is a little child no older than 2. It's eyes blank.
"You monster" sailor moon screams at the girl. " How could you do this to a child?" the girl looks at sailor moon for a long moment, and then smiled coldly.
"Dark moon collapse" her voice dropped to a dead whisper, the pole pointed straight at sailor moon's midriff. Suddenly sailor moon's stomach lurched and a bright glow radiated from her belly. Her hands came straight out in front of her, fingers facing up.
" White Moon eclipse" her voice stone cold, a soft gasp came from a small creature, Luna fainted. A blast that would have put any bomb to shame streamed out of sailor moon and slammed into her victim.
A dead silence fell as the blast stemmed off, this would be the first time sailor moon ever killed anyone. She looked up to the flagpole; there was nothing there. She looked around her, and to her shock, nothing was damaged, the buildings were still standing, the cold sick taste of death was not in the air. She took a deep breath, and turned to face the scouts. All she saw was Darien's face, he was no longer in his tuxedo mask costume, and then she fell, her eyes closing and her mind blissfully empty. A strong pair of arms caught her before she slammed into the ground.
