Serena: Queen of the Nile
Chapter Six: What I'm made of.
By Graham Parsons
**************************************************************************** *************************
The winds were harsh that hot June day, as the figure glowed in all its radiance. The sailor scouts were still amazed and dumbfounded by the sheer brilliance of what Serena had become. She was truly a sister of the Rolling sun.
Serena's eyes were focused directly on Ursula, as she very calmly raised her left hand and pointed at her.
"Would it be wise to say, that you are proud of the things that you have done, Ursula?" She shouted
"Don't start this with me, sister; you know very well that this date would be forever unavoidable." She yelled
"But you of all people, why did you think that Isis had to die because of your cruel and bitter misfortunes? Why did she have to die and you stand there. laughing at her? We were all sisters once, Ursula I know that there is some good in you, I know it for sure, and I won't rest until I prove it, EVEN IF IT MEANS TAKING YOUR LIFE!!!!" She screamed as tears streamed down her cheeks, as she gazed into the very face of evil.
"Here's a little news flash for you. sister, I was never good. I was great!!! And I'll prove it by destroying you, just as I did Isis. You will pay for the pain that I have inherited over the years, I WILL NOT LET YOU GO UNPUNISHED!!!
"WINDS OF THE NORTHERN STAR, DIVIDE THEM!!!" Ursula screamed
As the beam of light and wind hurdled towards them, the scouts quickly turned to Serena for Guidance??
"What should we do Princess?" said Mina
Serena gazed forward at what was coming, everything seemed to be going in super slow motion, until finally, everything stopped in time completely, and Serena was the only one who seemed to be able to move.
"What's happening, why can my friends not move??"
"Sister of the West." a distant voice said
"Who's there, show yourself!!!" she screamed
"Very well" the voice said, in a soothing, familiar tone of voice.
"Hello, Serena." The voice said
"QUEEN ISIS!!! But how is this possible.?" Serena exclaimed
"You of all people, Serena should know that there is an afterlife. I am merely about to take my place among the gods." She said sweetly
"I wish you were still with us, I miss you. sister" Serena said, Tears rolling constantly
"Now you stop that crying, or you will smudge your makeup, she said laughing and crying at the same time"
"Oh Serena, something stirs the shards of broken stone by my head. I wish I could have saved this kingdom, I loved it too. I never wanted this to happen; I would have given my life to stop this. I'm so confused--if I would have given my life, why does it bother me that I'm dead now? I would still die to save this place, Serena, and to save you. The stones stir again. Is it only because you will never know how much I loved you and that I know you had to protect your friends.? Yes, I loved you for many years. You deserved better than I could have given you. But you loved me still, me!" She cried.
"And I always will." Serena said softly
"Protect your friends always Serena, teach my sister the lesson she was destined to learn, show her truth." "Goodbye for now, you will be in my heart." She rose up and time continued as back to normal.
The beam of light hurdled towards them, but now, Serena was ready, and she extended her two arms out in front of her, and shouted.
"I will protect this land Ursula, and my friends!!!!!" She screamed
The beam hit Serena's hands and the pressure was immense, she was startled at the ferocity of it at first, but she remembered the Queen's words, and the people she was fighting for, and it gave her hope.
And with that, she pushed and pushed, and sent the beam directly back at Ursula, with two times the ferocity, than before.
Ursula screamed and tried to run, instead pulling darkness in front of her, to take most of the blow, it was a direct hit to darkness, it killed him immediately, but Ursula's plan backfired, the beam still hit her with a vengeance, and she lay on the floor weakened from the whole ordeal.
"Ok guys, this is it!!! What we have been training for, we have to take her down, while she is in her weakened state."
The girls all nodded their heads and assumed in their positions. The four points of the triangle were in place as Serena stood in the center. The crescent moon on her forehead began to glow, as Serena shouted.
"GOD'S OF THE ANCIENT PROPHECIES HEAR MY PLEA; A TRUE SISTER OF THE ROLLING SUN NEEDS YOUR HELP AND GUIDENCE. HELP US VANQUISH URSULA FOR THE HATRED AND PAIN SHE HAS DEALT OUT."
A light shone down on Serena as she rose up slightly into the air, the pyramid had been formed.
"Now sailor scouts, combine your powers with mine.!"
"MECURY CRYSTAL POWER..."
"MARS CRYSTAL POWER...."
"JUPITER CRYSTAL POWER...."
"VENUS CRYSTAL POWER..."
"THIS IS FOR YOU QUEEN ISIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Serena shouted
Serena's crescent moon shone brightly, as the scouts let out one final scream, and their power was released.
Ursula sat up, and tried to deflect their attack, but it was too strong.
The beam was too large. fire, thunder, water, light. all the while combined with Serena's god like abilities were simply too much to, fathom, Ursula perished in a stream of light, her body lay limp on the ground.
Although she still had the strength to move closer to Serena and say these words;
"Happy birthday sister, you truly are worthy." with that she cried a single tear, and fell dead onto the hot sand.
Serena fell to the ground as well, weakened by the whole ordeal; her appearance returned to normal, she fell unconscious onto the ground.
When she awoke, a single red rose lay on her chest, then she heard these words.
"Happy birthday buns." in a deep masculine voice
It was Darien, sitting at the edge of her bed, with a beautiful smile on his face, and his hands clenched in his lap.
She immediately rose from her bed and lunged on him, kissing him, and running her hands through his hair. She was so happy to be near him, the girls stood at their door and looked down with smiles on their faces, the two looked up at the girls and went red in the face. Rei just had to say something.
"You know guys, there is a lock on this door, if you know, and you wanted "privacy" she said slyly
"Rei that's very insensitive, and RUDE!!" said Amy
Mina and Lita just laughed as Ami and Rei bickered, Darien and Serena just lied their however, holding each other close, and Serena looked up at Darien and said,
"So much has happened since you have been away"
"I'm sure we have all the time in the world to talk about it" Darien said softly
"I have to introduce you to the extended family." Serena laughed
"WHAT???" Darien yelled
"Later", she said. Then she pressed her head against Darien's chest and though about her sisters, and how different they truly were, it was ironic how they both met destruction over a silly little feud. Maybe know things would finally get back to normal, or would they. You never know with these champions of justice,
**************************************************************************** *************************
"It is a serious thing to live in a society of possible gods and goddesses, to remember that the dullest and most uninteresting person you talk to may one day be a creature which, if you saw it now, you would be strongly tempted to worship, or else a horror and a corruption such as you now meet, if at all, only in a nightmare...There are no ORDINARY people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. Nations, cultures, arts, civilization-- these are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat. But it is immortals that we joke with, work with, marry, snub, and exploit-- immortal horrors or everlasting splendors."
--C.S. Lewis, "The Weight of Glory"
