The Shattered Family
Chapter3: "I'm not this Hikari character you speak of."
**In Nephrenia's Lair**
Hikari's body was now that of a mature 20 year old. She had been awake for over 3 hours looking at the night sky. A nagging voice in her head called for her mother and father, but from what this woman Nephrenia said the Sailor Senshi killed her mother and father as well as her best friends Goten and Midori.
She flicked a few stray strands of her lavender hair behind her ear and stood up when Nephrenia entered the room. She felt like this woman was lying her to.
"So you're awake Kuroi Akai. Those senshi who killed your loved ones are on their way to kill you." Nephrenia said knowing she had the innocent child where she wanted her.
"How do I know you aren't lying to me. I have a feeling you lie old hag." Hikari said in a cold voice.
Nephrenia winced at the cold bitterness in the child's voice but remembered that she was under her control and smiled cruelly.
"Why would I lie about my own friend's death?" Nephrenia asked with too much sarcasm in her voice.
Hikari glared icily at Nephrenia and then sat down on the chair she was sitting on earlier and rubbed her chin.
"Maybe because my parents weren't your friends." Hikari said icily and then left the lair to welcome the soon to come sailor senshi.
**On the way to the lair**
Rei felt a pain in her chest and stopped flying to hold herself in pain. Bulma saw the pain etched on her friend's face and stopped right next to her.
"Rei are you ok?" Bulma asked.
Rei coughed up black blood and looked at her hand. Bulma gasped in horror to see the black blood dripping from her friend's lips. Rei looked at Bulma with sadness in her eyes.
"It has happened. And somehow it is affecting me." Rei said before going into an attack of coughs.
"Let's set up camp. We've been flying all day. Maybe you are just over exhausted." Bulma said trying to lighten the heavy and dark mood that had fallen over them.
Rei landed weakly on the ground and fell back. Bulma saw the struggle that Rei was having trying to breathe. She and Rei set up their camp and contacted Trunks and Vegeta hoping that the illness that had suddenly overcame wasn't sensed by either of them.
**In the room of space and time**
Trunks was breathing hard as he tried to catch his breath from training all 'day'. Vegeta looked at his son worried. He started coughing up blood halfway through their training. He was about to beat him to a pulp until he got an explanation but he heard a familiar voice ring in his head.
"Vegeta, Trunks, you guys there?" The voice of Bulma's rung through both their heads.
"Bulma?" Vegeta asked hearing as well as sensing distress from his mate's voice and ki.
"How's training going?" He heard Bulma ask.
"It's been going well until Trunks started to cough up blood." Vegeta said.
He heard a gasp come from Bulma and also sensed a fall of energy.
Rei was holding herself in pain coughing hard as more blood escaped her mouth.
"Is something wrong?" Vegeta asked.
"No, nothing is wrong Vegeta." Rei said.
Trunks breathed in raggedly and heard the comfort of his mate's voice but sensed something was wrong with her. He clutched his chest in pain not knowing that being bonded with Rei in Sayian law exposed more than would usually be exposed in a normal marriage. Not knowing that he would share her pain.
"Continue on training and good luck." Bulma said quickly and severed her link to Vegeta and Trunks when the sounds of coughing came from Rei's link.
"What's happening?" Trunks asked while coughing another spray of blood.
Vegeta looked at his son and knew something was up with Rei. If Trunks was coughing up blood he only feared what would happen if Rei isn't cured of this sudden illness. He knew that Trunks was always in perfect health.
**At the camp**
Rei was asleep on the grass as Bulma ate quietly. Bulma was worrying about Midori. Was it a good decision to leave her with 18? That question was racing in her mind like crazy. She looked over at her daughter-in- law/best friend and saw that her breathing had became regular after hours of coughing.
"Midori . . . please be safe." Bulma whispered looking at the stars, which were now glowing dimly.
***The next day***
Bulma awoke to see Rei ready to go.
"About time you woke up. Time to head on out." Rei said.
Bulma and Rei flew more towards the South until they saw a shadow pass them.
The friends stopped and then saw the shadow stop in the corner of their eyes.
There floated a girl with long lavender hair to the hips, violet eyes which were showing great sorrow, and had the body of a fragile woman in front of them.
Rei gasped to see a tail on the woman's body coiled around her waist, which was a light lavender color.
"No." Bulma gasped, she was looking at her granddaughter.
"Are you two Sailor Senshi?" Hikari asked bitterly.
"Hikari?" Rei asked in shock.
Hikari's mind screamed 'Mommy!' but she shoved the voice away and glared at Rei.
"Who are you? Only my mother and father called me that." Hikari hissed.
Rei felt her body go numb. Her daughter was right in front of her reeking with the aura of evil.
"Hikari it's me your mother." Rei said.
"I'm not this Hikari character you speak of. My mother and father as well as my friends Goten and Midori were murdered by Sailor Senshi." Hikari said coldly.
"That's a lie. Midori is alive." Bulma said suddenly getting what Nephrenia told the child to corrupt her.
"Are you Sailor Senshi?" Hikari asked bitterly.
"What ever Nephrenia told you it's a lie." Rei said.
"You two are Sailor Senshi. You killed my mother, father, my friends Goten and Midori. You shall die the same death they died of." Hikari said with sorrow and rage in her voice.
Rei's eyes widened to see the Mars symbol glow a black on her daughter's forehead and a wave of something flowed through her making her cough violently and cough up blood.
Hikari could sense a power familiar to hers from the woman in the red and black but if these women were sailor senshi they killed her family and friends, a crime that should never go unpunished.
**On Master Roshi's Island**
Black waves of clouds covered the oceans and island which 18, Krillen, Master Roshi, and Midori were on. Midori started to cry from the darkness she sensed around her. Marron stared to scream and cry covering her ears.
18 looked up at the clouds and gasped. She ran into the house quickly along with Krillen to see Nephrenia there holding Midori in her arms with a cruel smile on her face. Marron was on the ground bleeding.
"So you are the other princess of Uranus. Well it seems that your daughter is just as weak as your sister was. Such a push over that brat is. I might as well take her also. She'd be better off." Nephrenia said as a bubble formed over Marron's unconscious form. Krillen and 18 launched attacks at the Dead Moon Queen but were knocked back into walls.
Midori was crying as the blazing symbol of Earth glowed on her head brightly. Nephrenia caressed the child's cheek gingerly until the light of her parents' love started to appear. She made the child pass out and looked at 18 and Krillen who were being held back by mirror minions.
"LEAVE MY DAUGHTER AND MIDORI ALONE!!" 18 yelled ferociously while trying to get out of the mirror minion's hold.
"LET US GO!!" Krillen yelled struggling against the binds from the mirror minions.
"I think I shall leave with yours and Earth's daughters. They are better with me and Mars' daughter anyway. Leave a message for those retched Earth and Mars. If they want to see their children again. They must surrender their powers to me." Nephrenia said and disappeared with the unconscious Midori and Marron in black bubbles.
Krillen and 18 fell out of the binds and watched helplessly as their daughter and Bulma and Vegeta's daughter were taken.
"MARRON!!!" The two cried and fell into each other's arms crying.
Master Roshi saw the whole thing and somehow remembered seeing something on Dende's lookout about this Nephrenia person.
"How are we going to tell Bulma that the enemy has taken her daughter also?" 18 asked between sobs.
Krillen looked at his brokenhearted wife and then back at the sky. Hatred was in his eyes towards the woman who had just taken his daughter and his friend's daughter.
