A Time of Darkness

Chapter 12: Twisted
"First I have to heal Prince Diamond," Pluto said and began to heal Diamond who then stood beside Serenity.
Sailor Pluto smiled and then turned serious. " You saw the future, but it can be changed as you said," she said.
Usagi stepped closer to Pluto. " But ChibiUsa will never be born," she said sadly.
Pluto raised her staff and it glowed brightly. A blurry image began to appear. It was Crystal Tokyo before the Black Moon's attack. It looked very prosperous and beautiful. The lights in the city were brightly lit and people were smiling contently. The Crystal Palace was also very beautiful with its crystal walls.
"This is the day Prince Diamond first showed up in Crystal Tokyo," Pluto revealed.
A slender figure was seen walking in the lushious garden of roses and other pretty flowers. It was Neo - Queen Serenity. Usagi stared in awe of her future self. The Queen had a sad look upon her delicate features as she gazed at the night sky.
* Future Vision*
" Your Majesty..." a voice said.
Neo Queen Serenity turned to see one of her servents. "Yes?" she asked.
"The man wishes to see you and King Endymion," the woman said.
"I'll be right there, thank you," Serenity said.
The Queen walked to a room where Endymion, Luna, and Artimis were sitting. Luna and Artimis were in their human form for this. Luna had long black hair with odangos on each side of her head and had deep blue eyes. Artimis had shoulder lenght white hair and blue eyes. Both of them had the crescent mark on their forehead.
"Ah, welcome Serenity," Luna greeted.
Serenity sat next to Endymion and smiled at Luna.
"Bring him in," Endymion ordered.
A man walked into the room. He had silver hair to his shoulder and violet eyes that seem to pierce through a person's soul.
"Welcome," Serenity said gently.
"Allow me to introduce myself, Your Majesties. My name is Diamond," he said.
"Why is it that you are here?" Serenity asked.
"I am here because some people in the city feel that it is wrong for a person not to age, it is a blastphamy against God," he said.
"Why? I thought that the people wanted the longvity that we offered them? Are they not happy?" Serenity asked.
"Some of them are, but not all of them I am afraid," Diamond said.
Endymion narrowed his eyes, " It is what MY people wanted and nobody is going to take that away from them," he stated, "Now please leave."
"What? But-" Serenity protested.
"Enough is enough Serenity, dear. Now we have to go to dinner," Endymion said and led the Queen away, leaving Dimond in a stupor.
* End Future Vision*
Pluto changed the image to another time as she watched the Senshi, Diamond and Usagi's reactions. Anger, sadness and shock were written over their features. It hurt her to see them like this, but they had to know.
* Future Vision*
There Diamond was walking aimlessly around. Then he heard some mutteres of two people. Diamond peeked from behind a tree. There in the garden in a passionate embrace was King Endymion and some brunnette dressed in a revealing and expensive outfit.
"Where the little Queenie?" the woman asked while nipping on Endymion's neck.
Endymion chuckled and kissed her again. "In her room talking with those other idiots," he replied.
"Now, when am I going to be Queen?" she asked as she pouted.
"I'm so sorry, Catherine, but you will never be Queen," Endymion awswered.
"Why?" Catherine asked, a little bit angry.
"Because Serenity holds the power of the Silver Imperium Crystal and I cannot use it," he replied.
Catherine stared at him for a moment or so and then frowned. She had everything she ever wanted, expensive clothes, jewlery and a handsome man. The one thing she lacked was power. The power to control everything and everyone within her grasp. She felt Endymion's lips upon hers and gave into what she had always lusted over. The pathetic blond's so called lover. It felt good to know that she could break the Queen with one little action.
"I have never been so disgusted in my entire life," a voice growled.
Endymion turned around to see the man that he had met the day before.
"Endymion, how could you do this to Serenity?" he asked,"I've seen her gazing at you with love filled eyes and this is how you repay her?"
"That's none of your corcern. I don't even love that klutz! She is merely a pawn, something to be used when my Catherine is away. All I want from her is power," Endymion said as he smirked.
"That stupid blond bitch doesn't suspect a thing! Endymion and I have been together for many years and she still doesn't see," Catherine said haughtly. She stared at the handsome man with half closed eyes. He was rather handsome...She could have this man in her bed along with Endymion.
"You two are nothing, but idiots!" Diamond snarled," A bastard and a slut. Meant for each other."
Endymion scowled and pushed Cathrine to the ground. " Guards!" he shouted.
Men armed with light weight armor, high tech guns and other gadgets came running in. "Yes, Your Highness?"
"That man almost killed this innocent woman! Arrest him!" he order. Cathrine caught on and forced herself to look really hurt as she willed tears to fall.
The men aprehended Diamond who tried to fend them off. The butt of a gun came crashing down before he could see. His eyes rolled into the back of his head as it made contact with his head. A guard caught him before he hit the ground and they dragged him away. A week later Diamond was released, but under one condition. He was not to go near the Royal Family. Serenity was saddened after that law. The young man only wanted to help the people and Endymion threw him away like a rag doll. The image of Crystal Tokyo blurred and disappered.
"I'm sorry, Serenity, but I prefer not to tell you much about the future," Pluto said.
"Its fine, please tell more," Usagi pleaded.
"Well, then. Serenity found out that Endymion was with Catherine and was deeply hurt. She sought out the comfort that her friends could not give her and went to Molly's and Melvin's house. Along the way she was attacked by robbers that did not know she was the Queen. She was beaten and her prized necklace was stolen. Diamond found her and took her in. Neo Queen Serenity lived with Diamond and his brother until her physical and emotional wounds slowly healed which was five months to be exact. She and Diamond began to fall in love, soon they declared their love at night, " Pluto told them with a hint in the last few words.
"What happened?" Usagi asked.
" Neo Queen Serenity stayed with Diamond a little more until her wounds healed completely and she decided that she will break away from Enymion and hopefully live in peace also. It would not happen for the next day Endymion had guards all over the city, searching for Serenity. They found her and told the King who immediatly went there in a fury," Pluto continued, her ruby eyes misted over as memories overtook her.
*Flashback*
"I won't go, Endymion!" Serenity yelled.
"Is this because I was with Cathrine? I told you, she was all over me!" Endymion said and took Serenity's arm.
"NO! Its because I don't love you!"Serenity cried, "I love Diamond!"
"What?" Endymion hissed, his blue eyes narrowed.
"I. Love. Diamond," Serenity repeated.
Endymion grabbed Serenity's arm harshly, " You are MY wife and shall obey me," he whispered angerily.
"Leave her alone!" Diamond yelled as he struggled against the guards.
Endymion aimed a beam straight at him. Diamond let out a hoarse yell and slumped unconsious in the guard's arms.
"Take him away," he commanded and dragged Serenity along with him. The Queen cast one more look at her beloved before he was out of her sight.
*End Flashback*
"Pluto? Pluto?" Usagi asked concerned.
"Oh! I'm sorry, Princess," Pluto apoligized.
"What happened,Sailor Pluto?" Diamond asked.
"That night Endymion decided to to teach Serenity a "lesson" You do not wish to know exactly what happened that night," Pluto said in an almost whisper as she goes into another flashback.
* Flashback*
"Your beloved Diamond is in prison and awaiting his doom!" Endymion sneered.
"I'll find a way to be with him! You won't stop me!" Serenity said fiercily.
"But I can....I am King, suprior to you," Endymion taunted," Your power is greater then mine, yet you are second because you are a woman," Endymion taunted,"So I suggest that you act like a good little girl."
Serenity scowled. She couldn't believe that she actually fell in love with this man. All she felt for him now was disgust and anger, "I hate you."
Endymion's face contorted in a snarl and he dragged Serenity into their room by the hair. There in the stillness of the night Serenity felt pain. Worse then fighting the enemies. In the Gates of Time Sailor Pluto turned her head in disgust at what happened. Tears fell out of her crimson eyes, nobody could hear the Time goddess cry.
*End Flashback*
Usagi stared at Pluto whose eyes glistened with unshed tears and noticed she held her staff tightly in her gloved hand.
"Pluto?" she questioned, worry written on her features.
Pluto once again snapped out of her memories and she swallowed the lump in her throat. The green haired woman couldn't go on telling them, she would break down. Pluto decided to just show them. The Senshi raised the time staff again and an image began to appear.
"See," she whispered. All of their faces turned to the image immediatly. Before she turned around, Pluto caught sight of Mamoru's face. He was being to get nervous. *Good* she thought.
*Vision*
The Senshi bolted out of bed when they heard a thud coming from the Queen's room. They rushed to the room at breakneck speed. Gasps escaped from their throats when they saw Serenity slumped on the ground, whithering in pain. Jupiter quickly took the petite Queen in her arms and ran to the emergency wing with the other close on her heels. Endymion came out of the bathroom once they left with a smug look on his face. His little wife was only have pains, but they would find nothing wrong with her. He used his healing powers on her. The King dressed and put on a worried face.
"Mercury, whats wrong with with Serenity," he asked as soon as he got there.
Mercury smiled brightly. "Congradulations, Endymion. You are going to be a father!" she exclaimed.
Endymion smiled. This was unexpected, but it was a blessing. Serenity was carrying his child! That ties her to him and her duty as Queen of Earth. Nothing could go wrong now. He went inside the room where she was in. Serenity's blue eyes had a look of despair in them as she faced him.
"How are you feeling?" he asked in a mocking tone.
Serenity merely glared at him and kept her mouth shut.
Endymion merely made his way to her bed and loomed above her.
"Ah, Serenity. Can you imagine? A child of our blood? The royal Earthling and Lunarian blood running through her veins. Most powerful indeed. The next Queen of the Silver Millenium," he muttered as he gripped her chin.
Serenity stayed quiet as he talked and talked. She didn't want to believe that the baby is Endymion's. Serenity tried to wrack her brains for another answer, but it didn't seem to be working. Endymion grew tired of her silence and stalked off, leaving her alone.
"No, no, no," she muttered to herself.
*End Vision*
The Senshi stood there in silence, none of them dared to say anything. Nobody would have ever guessed that Mamoru was that evil. He had stomped on the love that they had and broke them apart.
"Soo ChibiUsa is a child born out of abuse?" Usagi asked sadly.
She gazed at the pink haired girl whom was sprawled on the ground as her red eyes glowed with anguish. Her father was a idiot who didn't care what happened to his daughter or the mother. Pluto merely changed the image, avoiding Usagi's question.
*Vision*
Serenity let out a final cry as she brought her child into the world. When she fell back, tears fell down her beautiful face. Her baby was not born out of love, only harsh dominance. Endymion only wanted an heir to use as a pawn, to mold in his image. To make sure that his family bloodline continues. As Serenity was mourning, Sailor Mercury took a look at the newborn which caused her blue eyes to widen. Suddenly the Queen felt the little body being thrust into her arms, but refused to look.
"Look, Serenity," Mecury urged.
Serenity looked at her baby and gasped. Her daughter had soft silver hair like Diamond's.....and when she opened her eyes, Serenity saw that her child had inheritated her eyes.....She wasn't Endymion's child! Serenity beamed and hugged her newborn. As Mecury and Serenity marvled around the small being, two cold blue eyes watched their every move.
"Damm! So that baby belongs to Diamond!" he seethed. He stalked off angerily as blue fire danced in his eyes.
**********
A small figure could be seen, walking cautiously to the ends of the palace. Her eyes darted back in forth as she neared the dungon. *Almost there!* the figure thought as her breathing became labored.
Inside Diamond was slumped against the cold walls with a hopeless look in his violet orbs. He failed to protect his beloved and had been locked up in this filthy cell. Unable to comfort his beloved or be of any use. During these past few months Endymion had came in and taken extreme pleasure in beating him. Shouting degrading things, but what hurt the most was that he insulted his love. Called her many things that made Diamond's blood boil and yell back. The King said that Serenity never loved him, but merely saw him as a fun toy for a couple of weeks. A lie, Dimond felt it inside of him. He tensed when he heard the door being opened and prepared for an impact.
"Diamond!" a feminine voice cried.
Diamond turned to the soft voice and gasped. A goddess was standing before him, her exhausted facial features did not hide her beauty. His eyes lowered to see that his love carried a pink bundle protectivly in her arms. A child....
"What?" he choked out as tears stung his eyes," Is that Endymion's?"
Serenity shook her head vigourously and stepped closer to the battered man. Diamond's eyes grew larger as he gazed at the tiny human. The girl resembled him...
"Mine?" he whispered.
"Yes, our daughter..." Serenity said softly.
Diamond broke into a smile and hugged them both. "What shall we name her?" he asked.
Serenity gave it some thought, "Well, Serenity is her name by birth.....What about Usagi?......ChibiUsa," she mushed.
"Yes, perfect....Princess ChibiUsa Serenity......No...Princess ChibiUsa Small Lady Serenity," he said.
* End Vision*
'What? ChibiUsa? But she looks different!" Usagi exclaimed.
Pluto didn't answer once more, but her eyes wandered over to the future Princess. Her cheeks were stained with her tears and dirt as her crimson eyes stared blankly ahead.
"What if I'm not really Mama's daughter? It makes sense. Mama never showed me love or the Silver Imperium Crystal. Those kids were right..." ChibiUsa whispered.
*Flashback*
"Did you know? Everyone is saying your not the Queen's daughter," a black haired boy said.
"You're a fake Princess," a blond boy said
"Thats not true! I am Mama and Papa's girl!" ChibiUsa shouted.
"But she never makes a fuss over you, does she?" the blond asked.
"Mama's busy," ChibiUsa argued as her heart started to ache.
"If you're the Princess, you can use the Silver Imperium Crystal," the boy said with a smile, " You've never seen the Imperium Crystal, if she won't show it to you, then your definatly a fake Princess."
*End Flashback*
" I never grew up....because I am not their child..." ChibiUsa whispered softly. She looked up as Pluto conjoured up another vision with sad eyes
* Vision*
Serenity's smile grew wider. " I like that name, koibito."
"She's such a beautiful baby," Diamond marvled
" So do I," a voice said.
Serenity and Dimond whirled around to see a very furious King. His icy blue eyes burned holes into them. Not a very pleasant sight.
"Yes, she is a pretty little thing isn't she? he hissed, "Such a shame it would be if she were to die."
Serenity gasped, "No! Please spare the child!" she cried as tears spilled onto her cheeks.
"You can't! She is a mere innocent! A pure soul!" Diamond cried.
Endymion walked over to the Queen and stroked her cheek. " This one was also an innocent, a pure soul. She has been tainted by you! Serenity also deserves to die, to save her soul."
"What? You can't! I won't let you!" Diamond shouted as he struggled against the chains that bounded him.
"We'll see," he said coolly.
His eyes glowed eerily as he hynotized them. Serenity and Diamond's eyes became glazed over as they became still. Endymion glared at the newborn in Serenity's arms. That child was tainted by darkness, she didn't deserve to live... He should end her life right now...
*********************
Almost to the end! Whew! Please tell me if you are confused! Because I kinda confused myself also! Hehehe. Is ChibiUsa the rightful Princess, the heirness to the Silver Millenium? Tell me what you think! Disclaimers: Sailor Moon belongs to Naoko Takeuchi, DIC and others

" I never grew up....because I am not their child..." ChibiUsa whispered softly. She looked up as Pluto conjoured up another vision with sad eyes
* Vision*
Serenity's smile grew wider. " I like that name, koibito."
"She's such a beautiful baby," Diamond marvled
" So do I," a voice said.
Serenity and Dimond whirled around to see a very furious King. His icy blue eyes burned holes into them. Not a very pleasant sight.
"Yes, she is a pretty little thing isn't she? he hissed, "Such a shame it would be if she were to die."
Serenity gasped, "No! Please spare the child!" she cried as tears spilled onto her cheeks.
"You can't! She is a mere innocent! A pure soul!" Diamond cried.
Endymion walked over to the Queen and stroked her cheek. " This one was also an innocent, a pure soul. She has been tainted by you! Serenity also deserves to die, to save her soul."
"What? You can't! I won't let you!" Diamond shouted as he struggled against the chains that bounded him.
"We'll see," he said coolly.
His eyes glowed eerily as he hynotized them. Serenity and Diamond's eyes became glazed over as they became still. Endymion glared at the newborn in Serenity's arms. That child was tainted by darkness, she didn't deserve to live... He should end her life right now...
