Ragnarok – Matantei Loki/ Sailor moon crossover.

Disclaimer: I don't own Matantei Loki Ragnarok or Sailor Moon (no matter how much I would like to).

Chapter 1

"Why did you have to leave me? I thought that you would all be reborn, but you weren't. I feel so alone without your friendship," whispered Usagi while looking at pictures of her friends. It had been about a month since the battle with Chaos where her friends, also known as the Sailor Senshi, along with her love Mamoru, Tuxedo kamen, were killed, never again to be reborn as their star seeds had fused with hers causing Usagi to become Cosmos. Since then the world has moved on and almost no-one remembers the senshi or their real life identities. Transforming into Cosmos meant that Usagi's hair went from blonde to silver and also when transformed her hair was in heart-shaped buns, not the normal spherical ones. Also her eyes went from a bright blue to a metallic blue with silver specks which glittered. The sailor senshi uniform also changed. She still had wings, and the fuku didn't change, but a silver cloak now hung around her shoulders and a staff with an eight pointed star holding a crescent moon in its centre was in her right hand. On the queen of stars forehead was the same symbol and now she could control all of her scouts' powers, from the water attacks of Mercury to the Dead Scream of Pluto. "Even with your sacrifices I couldn't totally destroy cosmos as I now understand that that would upset the balance of the universe, all I could do was weaken him for a while until our next stand off (sigh). Now we will have to fight forever because becoming Cosmos turned me into a goddess, and as Chaos is a god we will live for eternity. I hope that you are all happy, and wish that I could join you. Also..." "Usagi, can you come down for a second please? Your father and I would like to discuss something with you," interrupted her mother's voice from downstairs. "Coming okaasan," replied Usagi in a tired voice, "I'll be there in a couple of minutes." Turning back to the pictures, "I wish you all well in the afterlife, and I'll try not to grieve any more for you." With that the 16 year old girl left her room and went to see her parents.

When Usagi entered the living room a few minutes later, she saw her parents sitting on the sofa looking at her solemnly. As she couldn't hold their eyes for long, Usagi broke eye contact and looked around the room, examining the family pictures and seeing how happy she used to be. "Usagi," a voice called to her from her thoughts. Looking back at her parents she replied, "Hai, 'tousan?" "Your mother and I have decided that you should stay with your uncle and cousin Mayura at their temple," he replied. "But..." replied Usagi, while thinking, why am I being sent there? Although it would be nice to see Mayura again and I have felt some strange vibes from their area. Is it something I should investigate? "No buts Usagi. We've seen that staying around here has done you no good so we think that maybe if you stay in a new place for a while it might help. I mean, would your friends want you to be this depressed?" asked her mother. "They wouldn't," Usagi answered in a whisper. "Alright, I'll go as long as I can take Luna and Artemis with me," and added to herself, I'll also investigate the strange vibes I'm feeling. The weird thing is that they feel familiar. "Deal. Now get your things together and say your farewells as we are leaving tomorrow," said her mother. "Ok," replied Usagi as she left the room.

Outside the living room, Usagi went to her room to start packing and also to tell the cats what was happening. As she entered the room she was instantly bombarded with questions. "What did your parents want then?" asked Luna. "How did you know that my parents wanted to speak to me? I thought that you were out with Artemis." "I was, but we heard your parents calling you because we were just outside the house so we decided to come up here to wait for you," Luna replied as Artemis came out of hiding. "Oh well. My parents just wanted to tell me that I'm going to be staying with my cousin from tomorrow, and don't worry, I managed to get you both able to come. Also it does give me a reason to search that area because I have started feeling some weird vibes from that area," said Usagi thoughtfully. "Vibes? You don't think that it's another enemy do you?" questioned Artemis anxiously. "No, they feel familiar. I don't know who or what, but they are similar to some from around the time of the Silver Millennium, so I'd say that they're fine at the moment." "That's alright then. Let's just hope that nothing develops," said Luna. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. Now you two run along and enjoy the rest of the day. I still have to pack and say good bye to some friends," Usagi whispered the last part sadly. "If you're sure..." "I am. Just enjoy the day."

A couple of hours later, the packing was finally finished. "Phew, I'm glad I have my subspace pocket, otherwise I'd have to have left some essentials behind," stated Usagi looking at the two suitcase on the floor. Then she sobered, thinking, I guess as that's done then I had better go visit people and say goodbye. I think Andy would be a good place to start. With that sorted, she left the house telling her parents that she'd be back for dinner, and headed off to the Crown Arcade.
As she arrived, she paused outside for a second, thinking of all the happy times she had spent there with her friends and fiancé. Then she gathered her courage and stepped through the sliding doors. Once inside, Usagi almost left again, but was stopped by someone calling her name. Turning she saw that it was Andrew. "Hey Andrew," she called in a solemn tone of voice. At this Andrew looked at her sharply and motioned for her to sit down. To the bar he called, "I'm just taking a break," and then to Usagi, "Now Usa, what's up? You know that you can talk to me. Also how come you haven't been by since the accident?" "It's nothing. I didn't visit because the memories of them are still painful, especially of Mamoru." "If you don't try to move on then the memories will always hold you back, especially if you get in another battle." At this Usagi's head shot up. "Yes, I know about you being Sailor Moon. Did you think that after knowing you and the others so long I wouldn't guess? Don't worry, I haven't told anyone and I won't, but think about this. I know that Mamoru loved you, so I'm sure that he would want you to move on. Same with the others." "I know that, and thank you for not telling the secret. I guess I should've known that you'd have found out," Usagi answered. "The thing is that I am here to say good bye as I am going to be staying with my cousin Mayura for a while and I'm not sure when I'll be back" "I think that that is a good idea. A break might help you come to terms with things better. Anyway Mayura? Isn't she the one who likes mysteries? If you're staying with her then be prepared for questions on happenings around here." "You're right, she will ask about the sailor senshi," replied Usagi. "Kuso, I'll have to try to evade her questions then. Thanks for the chat Andy, I'm off to see Naru now. See you later." "See you Usagi," he answered as she left arcade. Then he went into the back and returned to his job, hoping that she'll be ok.

A few minutes after she had left, Usagi found herself outside Naru's jewellery shop. Once again she hesitated, but not for long because just as she was about to wimp out Naru came up behind her. "Usagi, is that you?" she asked in a hopeful tone of voice. Sighing Usagi turned around, "Yes, it's me Naru. How have you been?" "It IS you," Naru replied cheerfully, letting them both inside. "Oh, I've been fine, just wondering where you've been since the accident. Everyone's been worried about you." "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to worry everyone. I've just been hanging around thinking about everything. I just came by to say goodbye as I'm going to stay with my cousin Mayura for a while. I'm not sure how long, probably until I've sorted everything out in my head. It wasn't my idea though, it was my parents," said Usagi despondently. "If they think it's for the best then it probably is. You have to trust that they're doing what they think is best. I know you feel down so if you can't face everyone else then I will tell them on Monday what's happened." "You would?" questioned Usagi. "Even after how I've been treating you for the past couple of years?" "Yes, because I know that you've been doing something important that you can't tell me about. I trust you, and still think of you as a best friend." "Thank you. I'm sorry, but I can't tell you because I don't want you to get into trouble. I've been feeling guilty for so long," Usagi said in a quiet voice, trying to hold back tears. "It's alright. I forgive you, as does Melvin. Come on, cheer up and I'll tell you about everything that's been happening at school since you've been off." "Ok, go ahead."

A couple of hours later, when the gossip had finally run out, Usagi broke in saying, "I'm sorry, and thank you for cheering me up, but I have to go now or I'll be late back for dinner." "Ok, would you like me to walk back with you?" inquired Naru. "No thanks, I'll be fine. I just want to get some fresh air and think things over before I leave tomorrow." "Well, if you're sure..." "I'm sure," replied Usagi. Then with a small smile said, "I'll write to you while I'm there, and you know the address so you can write to me, or e- mail me or call me as you know they're number." "Yeah. I'll be sure to do that regularly. Speak to you soon then." "Yep, I'll speak to you soon." Then with a little wave Usagi left. Just outside the closed door though, she softly says, "I'm sorry Naru, but I'm not heading straight home, there's still one place I need to visit before I can leave here with a clear mind." With that, Usagi then heads off to the cemetery to say her final farewells. Once inside, she heads directly to he graves of her friends, the Senshi, not worrying about the time or danger of being there alone at dusk. As she arrives, the tears again start to silently fall down her cheeks as she thinks of what happened that fateful night once more. "I'm sorry everyone, it's all my fault that this happened. If only I'd been a better warrior, princess and leader then you'd all be here still. I don't know how I'll manage to keep on going without you all, especially without you Mamo-chan, my love. I'll try to keep on so that your sacrifice won't be in vain, but it's so difficult." "Don't worry Usagi, it was our choice. Oh, and keep your grades up." "Ami?" Usagi looked up, cheeks still wet from her tears. "Yeah Odango Atama. Don't beat yourself up about it." "Rei." "Hey girlfriend, we're fine. Just worry about yourself and snag yourself a cute guy." "Mina." "You'd better perfect your cooking as I won't be there to cook for you anymore. You'll do fine though if you put your mind to it." "Makoto" "If anyone so much as looks at you wrong, tell me so that I can go haunt them koneko." "Haruka," giggled Usagi, "I will." "Usa-mama, we'll always be with you. Thank you for being my friend." "Hotaru." "Just be yourself, that's the princess you are Usagi." "Michiru" "Hime, you now control your own fate as you're Cosmos. That and our powers are our final gifts to you, as well as your memories of us." "Setsuna, thank you, and how often do I have to tell you not to call me hime?" "Usako, I'll always love you, but you need to move on. I don't want to see you spending the whole of eternity alone." "Mamoru, I'll try. I'll always love you but I'll try." Then with tears in her eyes said, "everyone, I'll miss you all. My final gift to you is that from now on the endless cycle of rebirth for you is broken. You may all rest in peace from here on out." "Thank you" they all said in chorus, then their presences faded away to nothing and Usagi was left crying in front of their graves. Then, when the last of the tears had been shed, walked away back to her house for the last time before the move.
