"What makes you think you can bring the goddess of the earth to our side?" a loud male voice boomed in the dirt tunnels. He sat in a large chair etched in crystal. It glittered like gold in a dirt filled pan. The man wore a icy blue cape that glistened with gold etchings. Fur laid around his collar as a gold chair clasped the two sides together. His dark green hair was slick against his pale skin. His brown eyes were domineering and hateful. A large image bowed to the floor before the man. This man's hair was black as night and eyes of sapphire etched this mans face. Pain was in his features as well as etching muscle upon muscle.
"Just give m a chance to gain her trust. I know she will then understand that in your world is where she needs to be." The man's voice was soft but very rough. His sad eyes gave away to a past that once held evil and bloodshed.
"I will give you this chance. I kid you not Nathan that if you don't provide her in the fifth day I will take your life." The male's voice was stern and harsh.
"I will not fail you Lord Athos" Nathan said with a bow and walked away.
Deep in a tunnel hidden by the shadows two blue green eyes flashed with hatred. Protruding from the direction of the eyes was a low raspy voice that spoke, "Evil will come to you if you dare hurt her!"
"Sage what are you doing here?" Terra gasped as she walked out of the shower with a towel wrapped around her naked body. Sage turned away and blushed as he secretly peeked into the mirror. Terra wrapped her hair in a towel and walked towards her bedroom.
"You know I hate this little pass through walls thing you can do," Terra gave a playful smirk. Sage smiled devilishly as he ripped off the towel on her head.
"I am sure you can do the same…"
"Stop that Sage!" Terra said as she grabbed the towel back. She quickly wrapped her head into the towel being sure to cover her ears.
"You really shouldn't hide your ears. There is nothing wrong with them…" Terra looked at him with disgust.
"Because normal people don't have ears that stick out to a point!" Terra said as she reveled her long pointed ears from underneath the towel started to cry. She hated the difference and the comments people have made through out the years. She turned and went into her bedroom. She slammed the door and fell to the floor. She ignored Sages pleads for forgiveness. Trev curled next to Terra and purred, Terra just picked him up and held him. Moments later Sage had left but left a small note that he slipped off the ground:
To my dearest friend Terra,
Forgive me for my words I meant know harm.
Everything about you is perfect.
Please don't hate yourself.
Sage
Terra crawled to her feet. She went to her closet and pulled out a purple velvet dress. The thin straps traced her back in a web of lines. The dress hugged her body then fanded out to her knees. It was a favorite dress of hers and color. She styled her hair in a uniq way that is waved down her back. Her colored hair shown in the light of the sun that leaked through her bedroom window. She felt confident about herself and her new look. She adventured out into the day. The streets were filled with people doing their shopping and enjoying the warm day. Terra walked into the book store and picked up a book. She felt a day reading in the park was in order. She walked towards the park and watched the children running and playing. She smiled at the cute little games and abundance of energy. She found an empty bench next to the lake and engaged in her book. Many pages later she was joined by a large man with dark black hair and sapphire eyes. Terra glanced towards his hands witch held a thick red book.
"I have read that book as well. You will thoroughly enjoy it." Terra said the moment the man glanced into her blue eyes. The man smiled and extended his hand.
"Hi I am Nathan" Nathan's voice was rough but tender in his greeting. Terra took his hand and introduced herself as well. Terra remained quit for a moment. His strong physique was very impressive and intimidating to her. "So tell me what book you are reading," Nathan's voice became gentle and kind from the first time her spoke. Terra blushed and looked at the title of her book.
"Oh it is just one of those fantasy books about how life was like before Earth."
"You really believe in that stuff," Nathan smirked. He shook his head letting his untamed black hair fly in all directions. It then fell into place, as if it never moved. Terra looked at the ground. How hurtful this man is she thought. She looked at the lake sparkling in the sun. She stood up and walked away. She was not about to regale such a closed minded man about what she knew and believed. She could not prove her theories on what had happened in the past, but she knew it was real. Her memories and dreams told her it was true.
Nathan started to call after her. Terra picked up her pace and ignored him. She did want to give him the time a day for his cruelty. Eventually Nathan dashed up to her and grabbed her shoulders.
"Do you not see that I wish to end our greeting?" Terra yelled in disgust. Nathan stared into her eyes for a moment, still holding onto her arm. His chest heaved for more air.
"For give me Terra, I did not mean you any harm," Nathan pleaded, "I just don't see any logic in the fact that years ago people lived on the moon. It just doesn't seem right!"
"How do you know that is for certain? People talk of a great war that destroyed the moon's assets of maintaining life." Terra stared at him. Her eyes were full of anger and she was not about to back down. She tugged her arm out from Nathan's grasp and stood there, waiting for an answer.
Nathan looked down and took a deep breath. "I only think it is silly because there is no proof," Terra thought for a moment.
"Sailor Moon is the guardian of the moon and she is here protecting Earth. I don't think a guardian of the moon would have been made if there was nothing on the moon to save." Terra smiled at her discovery. She was quit proud of herself for standing up to Sailor Moon. After all Sailor Moon did save her many times, along with the other scouts. Nathan continued to battle the idea because he had not seen of heard of Sailor Moon. Hours went by on this subject and still Terra was not able to convince Nathan of the tales of the Moon Kingdome.
The sky grew darker as the sun began to set. Terra ignited her good bye, but Nathan was not about to let her get away. He tried to convince her to adventure out into the night longer, but still Terra protested. Nathan walked away down hearted from the rejection.
Suddenly Nathan was hit by a large green energy ball. Terra ran towards Nathan wondering if he was alright. She screamed his name, but there was no response.
"Oh Miss Terra, please tell me a mire mortal has caught your fancy?" the man laughed and flashed his perfect smile. "You can do so much better then that."
"I see no one better!" Terra said facing him. The man scowled at her. He asked her again to join Lord Athos, but still she refused. The man lunged at her and caught Terra into his arms. He held her tight with strength beyond what she could fathom. The man took one hand and held her chin.
"I have never stopped thinking of you Terra nor the first kiss I was able to taste," the man said as he brought his lips closer to hers.
"Tell me or your name," Terra whispered as tears filled her eyes.
"Treven…" The man said as he passionately kissed her lips. Terra's breath stopped for a moment. Then suddenly Treven was pushed away from her. Terra watch in horror as Nathan used his strength against Treven. Scarlet blood leaked from the side of Treven's mouth, and then suddenly Treven used his strength to push Nathan away. "Simple mortal what use of you? Leave this has nothing to do with you." Nathan got up again and lunged towards him. Treven dodged Nathan's attacks with grace until he found Nathan's weakness. Treven took his hand and massively pushed Nathan with great force. Throwing Nathan into a the bushes beside them.
"But it has everything to do with us!" called a voice from the trees. Treven looked up and saw Sailor Moon as she leapt from the tree. Eight sailors jumped down behind her.
"I have said it before Sailor Moon. To get involved is to die!" Treven warned has a green energy ball formed.
"You are hurting the innocent. As protectors of the innocent we will punish you!" Sailor Moon called.
"Mercury Geyser!" Sailor Mercury yelled as a large blast of water zoomed towards Treven. Treven took the hit and stood his ground. His cloths were torn from his body and more blood came from other parts of his body. The scouts looked at him with relief. They had a chance now to defeat this new evil. There was a chance for ultimate victory. Treven launched his large green energy ball towards the Scouts. Terra watched for a moment, but couldn't any longer. She started to run towards the Sailor Scouts and blocked the full force of the energy ball. A bright light emitted from her body and fought off the green energy ball. Treven's yellow eyes widen as a faint symbol appeared on her forehead. Terra's light pushed the energy up towards the sky with a great explosion. Terra collapsed to the ground her dress had been shredded and blood was leaking from wounds on her body.
"Sailor Moon, this is not over but be careful because your time to end is drawing near. Find the Earth's Treasure and you will save the future of the Earth." Treven said as he vanished into the night. The scouts looked back towards Terra and tried to get her to wake up. They picked her up and took her to Darien's home. There Amy and Hotaru can help heal her.
"You could have killed me back there!" Nathan's voice boomed through the grounded tunnels. Lord Athos watch him as he ranted and raved about the cruelty Treven had given him!
Lord Athos let him finished his story and said, "I have not sent another person to get Terra. Only you and Sage are my subjects to do so. So who ever is messing your plans up it is not my fault." Nathan looked at Lord Athos in shock. Who was this man then Nathan thought. Nathan was starting to wonder about the path Lord Athos was taking. He was not about the adventure down the path of darkness again. He has been trying to forget that happening and he is still trying to fix his mistakes.
"If there is a problem in your way I suggest you kill him" Lord Athos finished.
