Rimnerel: Welcome back to the next chapter! It was so exciting that we
immediately got started writing the next chapter.
Nakoruru: But now Shiro is on a sort of trip like Inu Yasha has when he's without the Tetsusaiga. My poor Shiro subjected to a Maijin like state.
Rimnerel: Oh, he'll be fine, once he decides to kick some serious Kiro butt.
Nakoruru: That's still not the point. If he destroys Kiro, so shall the crystal be destroyed.
Rimnerel (^ ^): Yep that's the---(O_O)---you're right! Ah!! That's not a good thing! (runs to find Shiro) Shiro! Come back to us!
Nakoruru (sighs): That's my sister, not thinking before she does something like that. Well, I still thank everyone and I will let you know a little about my next project with a bit of time we have.
Basic Summary: A Card Captor Sakura x Sailor Moon crossover centered in an AU timeline. Sakura must seal the cards away to stop a powerful enemy from getting them. As she takes her last breath, she hopes that someday someone will be able to defeat the enemy she fears will return. Forwarding ahead to the future, an ordinary girl named Usagi Tsukino finds the book in her attic, which starts a new adventure of mystery, magic, and a rekindled battle to save the future of Tokyo. But why was the book in Usagi's attic in the first place, and why was she able to open it?
Nakoruru: Called "Spell of the Unknown" and will appeared very soon. Now on to the story!
~~~~~~~~~~~ *** ~~~~~~~~~~~ *** ~~~~~~~~~~~
Kiro jumped out of the way of another dark ball of youki that hurtled at him. He narrowed his eyes at the figure who seemed to be producing an endless supply of projectiles with no stunt or loss of youki whatsoever. He couldn't get close to the figure to go on the offense.
Kiro dodged another blast, but three more replaced that one. Dodging those, he found five more to replace them. The more he dodged them, the more he found multiples of those to replace the others. Kiro put up a barrier as ten more came at him. All of them rocked the barrier, despite the fact that Kiro was using the Millennia Heart Crystal.
*So this is what the little brat is capable of with the gloves off. * Kiro decided to go on the offense while the boy was summoning more power. Running in low, he created his own mass of energy. "It ends now boy!"
As he was going in, he found that the boy had moved from in front of him to behind him. He had forgotten that the boy had inherited his father's speed and was a formidable foe because of it.
Shiro blasted the male in the back while he was open. Kiro was hurled into one of the inner pillar going deeper into the palace. Shiro followed his opponent, going straight through the blasts to get to Kiro at all costs. He found the two toned haired male pulling himself out of the rubble that was created from the impact.
"You're a lot tougher than I would have thought," Kiro said. Shiro (or rather psycho demonic Shiro currently) stopped for a moment, observing his prey. The tears were long gone, his crimson eyes filled with anger, hatred, and emptiness. His entire aura was stained with the darkness of his darker energies. The pupiless eyes considered what the male was saying before a malignant smile rose to Shiro's lips.
"You haven't seen what I am truly capable of now that I'm free from my restraints. You're insignificant now," Shiro said.
"I'm insignificant? You may be a powerful half demon, but you're just that! A filthy little half bred bastard. You forget that I am a full demon child. Your arrogance shall be your fall." Calling upon all his power, Kiro went to attacking Shiro again. "Let's now see who is truly stronger."
~~~~~~~~~~ *** ~~~~~~~~~~~
"Shinya, Yusuke, Lita!" Mina and the others waved the three over to where they stood at a forked path in the dimension. "You guys finally made it. We were waiting up for you."
"Is everyone okay?" Raye asked. "Sana said she sensed something evil filling the air."
"Shinya sensed it too. He said it was. . ." Lita looked down, not sure how to explain that something had happened to Serena and now Shiro was out of control. Raye noticed the look in the woman's eyes, and grabbed hold of her shoulder.
"What's going on Lita? What did Shinya say to you?" Tears formed in Lita's eyes as she looked over at Yusuke and Shinya then back to the others.
"He said that something has happened to Serena and that Shiro is breaking some sort of seal that was placed on him to keep his demon abilities in check," Lita said. The reply brought shock to everyone's face.
"You mean that. . .he's turned evil or something?" Sana said. She never knew what it was about Shiro that sometimes made her uneasy, and that day that everything happened was a day she was with her sister. She never was able to get anyone to tell her what happened that day. "Shinya?"
Shinya looked at the girl who stared at him with a pleading look to know what was going on. That day that the seal first broke, Sana had been with her sister on a small assignment in the Rei Kai. Mieko had been told what happened, but most of the younger kids, with exception to Shinya knew the truth about that day. That day Shiro had nearly killed hundreds of people because of one youkai and one little ningen girl.
"There's no time to explain, we have to get to Shiro as soon as possible," Shinya said, turning away from the girl.
"Shinya! Answer me! What happened that day? I have to know! Why do you always know so much about him and I don't despite the fact we grew up with him. I have a right to know!" Sana shouted.
Shinya stopped in his tracks, recalling that day. That day that Shiro control. "I never want to lose him like I almost did that day. Believe me, you don't want to know what truly happened. Just know that a lot of people will die if we can't stop him. Now let's go."
~~~~~~~~~~~~ *** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shiro was thrown against another pillar as Kiro attacked him yet again. Blood slipped past his lips as he slid down into a sitting position. Not too far away, Kiro stood, panting in a labored manner from the excruciating battle. He would never have expected it to last this long with him at the max of his power. This young man was exceptionally powerful. If left to his own devices, he could likely level not only the Makai, but also Rei Kai, and Ningen Kai.
"You know, what if I said I would let you join me? What would you say to that?" Kiro found a crimson eye upon his, a short smirk rising to his lips. "You like the idea don't you. All you have to do is say that you'll follow my every command. What do you say little prince?"
"Are you that weak that you have to bribe me? Fool! I could level this entire place on my own, without your help!" Shiro sneered as he stood up. "I just enjoy playing with you." The young man rose his hand, a swirl of Makai flames from the underworld wrapping around him. "Now, I'm going to use the true power that my father was unable to call upon. I won't need to sacrifice anything to do it either."
"You're---you're not talking about the Dragon of the Darkness Flame." Kiro watched the energy around the young man accelerating. The dragon that covers the exposed parts of Shiro begins to unfurl from around his body. "Hope you like it in Hell."
"If you use that in here. . .you'll end up sending them to Hell with me!" Kiro said pointing to where Serena and Rini laid. "There's a chance to save them with the crystal."
Shiro shifted a quick glance to the two humans that lay unconscious. They weren't dead after all, but both were badly injured. Looking Kiro directly in the eye, his eyes flashed with malice. "What do I care about the lives of those two humans? They are insignificant to me now. Killing you is my main priority now."
"You. . ." Kiro stepped back, raising his barrier.
"Now! Tell me what Hell feels like when you get there! Ensatsu---"
"Shiro!" Shinya and the others came running into the area as the dragon began to rise. "Oh no, he's attempting the Ensatsu Kokuryuha. This is bad. We have to get Serena and Rini out of here."
"Where are they?" Raye asked looking around, until she found them unconscious far from the battle. "I see them. They aren't dead, I can feel their life energies."
"That's good. We're going to need Serena to calm him down," Shinya said. "I'm going to go see can I stop him, Sana, get everyone out of here." Before anyone could object, Shinya had already taken off for the battle, leaving everyone to help Serena and Rini.
Meanwhile, Shiro was calling upon all of his power in one blow to turn Kiro into nothing but a black outline. He hadn't heard the others arrive, or the plan that was formulated to stop him from killing everyone. The dragon was swirling about him, waiting to tear into its target. "Kokuryuha!"
"No you don't! Tornado Thrust!" A wall of wind interrupted Shiro's attack, only a small portion reached Kiro, smashing into his chest and taking him down for the count for a bit. A growl ripped from Shiro's throat as he spared a look to the wind youkai that was flying above him. "Are you trying to kill everyone? Snap out of it! This isn't you at all! Have you forgotten who you really are?"
"Don't interfere in my battle. I will not hesitate to kill you also," Shiro said, hurling a ball of dark energy at Shinya. The young man moved out the way, but found another warning shot. "I don't care about any of you anymore."
"That's not true! Wake up!" Shinya floated down in front of Shiro, blocking his attack on Kiro, who could not attack right now if he wanted to. "Have you forgotten everything that we've been through? Have you, Shiro?"
"I don't care for your sentiments, now out of my way," barked Shiro raising his hand for another attack to finish Kiro off.
"I won't." Shinya rose his arms up to stop the attack. "Remember what you told me. Remember everything you ever said to me. Wake up, Shiro."
"If you won't move, then you'll die too."
~~~~~~~~~~ *** ~~~~~~~~~~~
Serena felt her eyes flutter open as she looked up at the faces that hovered above her face. Was she in heaven now? The last thing she remembered was attacking Kiro, but that had backfired. He had used the power of the crystal to defeat her. The last thing she really remembered was someone calling her name before complete darkness overtook her. Someone was calling her name now also. She couldn't make out the blobs that must be people, but the voice sounded familiar.
"Serena, get up! This is urgent!"
"Am I dead?" she wondered to the blob. She made out the blob making a face at her.
"Of course not meatball for brains! But you will be if you don't get up!" shouted Raye.
Serena slowly got up, realizing that it was Raye speaking to her. After a minute her eyes finally cleared. She looked at the woman who had a worried expression on her face. "What happened? Where's Kiro?"
"We have a small problem," Lita said. She filled Serena in briefly on what was going on, watching the woman's face change as she looked at the events going on with horror. "Shinya said that you would be able to reach him. You have to do something before he does kill us all."
Serena stood up from where she was laying. "I'll try my best, I can't promise the best results, but I will see can I get something." Opening her hand, she concentrated on all her energy. "I call out to the Millennia Heart Crystal. Come to my aid. Unlock the power that is within me in order for me to save my son. Help me, please Millennia Crystal." A light around Serena began to shine as she continued to pray to the crystal. "Millennia Soul Activation!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~ *** ~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shinya continued to hold off all the energy that he could. He had no idea that Shiro was in control of so much power. "Shiro! You've got to wake up! Please!"
"I'm so tired of hearing your yapping, why don't you just give in and die too!" Shiro increased the power of his attack even more. He watched the red haired male slowly being overcome by the attack. "That's right, give in to me."
*Shiro. . . * Tears welled up in Shinya's eyes as he felt himself losing the battle. *I'm sorry I broke my promise to you. *
"That's quite enough, Shiro," said another voice, breaking through the attack like it was nothing.
"Who dares?" Shiro turned around to see the woman with long silver hair and blue eyes. On her forehead was the symbol of the crescent moon, but with an eight pointed star jewel hanging down from it. A pair of wings sprouted from her back, as she looked at the young man. In her hands was a heart shaped crystal. His eyes narrowed with recognition of the woman. "Millennia Queen Serenity."
"That's right. I had no idea that the seal would break again. But I won't lose you to the darkness. Let me cleanse you." Millennia Queen Serenity rose the crystal, closing her eyes.
"No!" The male tried to throw an attack at her, but nothing came out.
"This crystal was made for love of you and your siblings. It thrives on love, which is why Kiro was never able to use it to its full extent. I'll show you what it can truly do," Millennia Queen Serenity said. "Millennia Heart Purification!"
"No!!" The darkness around Shiro dispersed as light wrapped around the boy. For a moment the power struggled to break free, but in the end light won out. The mark of the dragon faded all together from the half koorime. After a moment, the light faded. Shinya was there to catch the falling male.
"Now, everything is back in order." The light around Serena faded, as she reverted back to her normal self. "It's finally come to an end." She smiled at the young man with black hair who was unconscious, but otherwise fine, then down at the crystal in her hands. The battle was over, finally for them all. Shiro especially.

Nakoruru: Yeah! We did it! This is looking so good! We're finally almost done!
Rimnerel: That means more time to work on other things. But when are you releasing Spell of the Unknown?
