Chapter 5: Sailor Moon Lives
"Please, tell me this isn't happening. Tell me it's all just a dream," Venus said as tears filled her eyes, but she knew it wasn't. This was real. This was no dream and she couldn't help but think that this was the end of the line for her dear friend. She didn't want to even think about Serena dying. Neither of them did.
Mercury looked blankly at Sailor Moon.
"Give me your hand, Mars." Mercury held out her hand, waiting for Mars' own hand. She stood up.
"What is that going to do? Holding hands won't serve Serena any good!" Mars said a little annoyed.
"I know what you wanna do. You want each of us to transfer some energy into Sailor Moon's body so she'll get her strength back," Jupiter explained.
Tuxedo Mask knelt down beside Sailor Moon. He held her tightly. He planned on doing the same, if it meant saving Serena, then he'd do anything he could to help her.
"Go on ahead. I'll be transferring my energy as well," he said.
"You begin first, Tuxedo Mask," Venus suggested.
Tuxedo Mask concentrated hard and soon a faint blue wave formed around him. Not long after, the same wave slowly surrounded Serena. Their body's were engulfed in a warm light and memories of them together had flashed through his mind. He had suddenly become very horrified when scenes from his dream popped into his mind. The woman's voice was a faint whisper. Stay away, came the whisper, but it sounded more like a gentle breeze then a faint whisper.
Hang on Serena. Be strong. It'll all be over soon and you'll have your energy back, Darien pleaded.
The scouts then circled around Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Moon.
"Mercury Star Power!"
"Venus Star Power!"
"Mars Star Power!"
"Jupiter Star Power!"
Their energy slowly began it's way into Sailor Moon's body. An aqua colored wave came from Mercury, an orange wave from Venus, a red wave from Mars, and a green wave from Jupiter. Things had seemed to be going slowly that way for about ten minutes, but there was no change in Sailor Moon's lifeless form.
"It's not working!" Jupiter yelled out as her heart broke. Tears filled her eyes once more.
"It has to work! Don't give up!" Venus shouted. She said it aloud more for her own sake then for the rest of the scouts and she still had a feeling Sailor Moon was going to die no matter what they did. She felt it deep down. It was a little bit of doubt that lived within her.
"Keep going! Please!" Tuxedo Mask pleaded. He didn't want to lose Serena. She was all that he had left and if he lost her than he'd have nothing. No one. No one to love. No one to love him. No one to comfort him. No one to give him company.
No real words could actually explain exactly how they felt and they knew they had to stop soon before they ended up like Sailor Moon. They felt weaker every second. They were going to stop until Sailor Moon's fingers twitched. Slowly their energy began to give life to their leader and friend.
"Sailor Moon?" asked Mercury as everyone stopped glowing.
"Hey there, guys. Is it dinner yet? I'm hungry." Tears of joy filled everyone's eyes.
Tuxedo Mask gently lay her on the ground and stood up as the scouts fell to their knees around Sailor Moon, not even bothering to take turns hugging her.
"That sounds like our Sailor Moon," Venus said joyfully.
"How can you even think about eating, Sailor Moon? You almost . . . almost . . ., " Rei couldn't get the words out. She felt the urge to cry, but held back her tears not wanting to show Serena she could make her cry.
"Easy," Sailor Moon answered. "When I feel hungry, I think about eating. It's all so simple."
"Don't start anything, Mars," Jupiter said.
"Let them, Jupiter. It'll be like always," Venus said smiling.
"Yes, I think we all need things to get back to normal," Mercury agreed with tears still in her eyes and a wide happy smile.
"Does this mean that your gonna keep reading, Mercury?" asked Sailor Moon.
"Yes."
They all laughed, but Sailor Moon had stopped laughing as soon as she stood up. She walked toward Tuxedo Mask. Everyone was silent as they watched Sailor Moon.
"I know you still care for me, Darien," she whispered. "I just know it. I saw through your mask before and I saw the look in your eyes. I know you love me." She looked at him, but he turned around and looked at the moon in the night sky. He sighed.
"I don't love you, Serena," Tuxedo Mask said. She took one step back and put her hand to her chest.
"That can't be." Sailor Moon was obviously shocked. "How could you say that? It's not true!" she yelled as tears filled her eye.
"It is true!" He yelled back. And with that he flew off.
"Why does he have to do that? He cares! I know he does. Or can it be true? Maybe I'm wrong. What if Darien doesn't love me?"she whispered to herself. She felt weak again but stood up strong.
"You still up for eating, Sailor Moon?" asked Lita, in an effort to try to keep her usual happy self, but Sailor Moon didn't answer.
"Sailor Moon?" asked Venus.
"Oh sure!" She turned around giving the scouts a thumbs up. She acted as if nothing had happened. "By the way where's Luna and Artemis" She looked around at her friends. They all looked down.
"They're gone. Anima took them," Mercury spoke up.
"We'll tell you while we eat," Lita said. No one cheered up at that moment.
"Well, Luna and Artemis would wanna celebrate for our performance," Venus said, trying to cheer everyone up.
"What performance?" asked Rei. "Because of us, Sailor Moon almost died and both Luna and Artemis were left unprotected. They were taken away from us! All of us!"
"We saved Sailor Moon," Jupiter added. "We have to celebrate for that!"
"I say it's up to Sailor Moon then," Venus said. The group turned to face Serena. They awaited patiently for her answer.
Serena gave them a smile. "I'd love to go out and eat."
"Great. Then we're off," Venus said. They began walking forward, but Sailor Moon turned around.
I'll always love you, Darien. No matter what you say. We belong together.
Mars stopped. She turned around. "You coming, Sailor Moon?" she asked.
"Yeah," Serena answered and ran off to catch up.
"Please, tell me this isn't happening. Tell me it's all just a dream," Venus said as tears filled her eyes, but she knew it wasn't. This was real. This was no dream and she couldn't help but think that this was the end of the line for her dear friend. She didn't want to even think about Serena dying. Neither of them did.
