Back now with Part II of the First Night of Full Moon Bleeding. I really wish I could be inebrieated on some sort of fermented bliss fluid right now as I write this but unfortunately I'm deployed overseas in a situation most unpleasant(I'll not elaborate as it's been compared to Vietnam on the news coughbullshit!) Again I do not own the story or charcacters of Sailor Moon but I hear soooommmmbooody's license expired! DIC we are all laughing at you.

-The first night- Part II

The crescent moon was on the rise as the sun at last dipped beneath the distant horizon. The night was upon Cherry Hill Temple and lingered like a sweet smell of cherry blossoms and incense. The girll's clothes were clean and drying in the warm summer breeze on a line hung between a Cherry tree and the Temple. Chad was meditating with the Old Master in a large room with a controlled bonfire in the center. They were chanting together and the resonance of thier voices mixed with the echo of high flames reached quite a distance from the temple walls. The girls could hear them slightly from another building where the living quarters were at the other side of the temple. Minako and Ami had dropped by before sunset for a study group and they were all now happily sipping on dark chocolate cocoa spiked with Minako's private stash of vodka that she had "borrowed" from her uncle's liquor cabinet. On the low table around which they all sat were open books and notes on pre-calculus, world history, and advanced mechanics as well as the large porcielan cups of the hot drinks on knit coasters, a few douiinshi mangas, and the questionable glass bottle wrapped in a pillow case. Luna and Artimis were asleep in the corner of the room curled up around each other lke a Yin-Yang

which was duely noted with a synonymous "Awwwww" from all present. After about two hours the girls moved thier thoughts from schoolwork to more important matters.

"I caught Chad sniffing our panties from the laundry today" mused Rei with closed eyes, fists, one quivering eybrow and a sweatdrop This evoked raised eyebrows and sweatdrops from the lot of them except for Usagi who was in mid-sip of her cocoa and started choking on it frantically. This almost woke up Luna, but she shrugged it off.

This moment of awkward silence was broken abruptly by the door on the side wall sliding open quickly with a crashing sound against the other wall. The girls all froze as they beheld what was standing on a branch of one of the Cherry trees nearby. What was gazing across to them through the doorway with dark shining red eyes and grinning. What they had all assumed had been killed beyond all reason an age ago. If it had been a ressurcected Zoisite, it would not have been such a shock. If it had been Chad in a gorrilla costume rocking out better than Led Zepplin it would'nt have shaken them this much. This chilled them all to the bone. This evoked tears and clenched fists so tight they bled. This woke up their cats.

"....beryl.."

A laugh was heard from the distance as the woman bowed politely and faded from view. The wind blew a little faster through the trees for a few seconds and then fell back to normal.

The silence that ensued among the group threatened to crack the floor open and shatter the cups. A thunderstorm was brewing miles from there and was getting stronger. Makoto could feel it because she was causing it. A wildfire blazed somewhere in the distant woodland and Rei could feel it, because she was causing it. Ice crystals and shards a mile in length broke through the rivers in the surrounding towns as it seemed a new Ice age began to rear it's ugly head. Ami could feel it because she was causing it. Mass Hysteria plauged household and restaurants among thousands of people who had turned on each other in hatred. Minako could feel it, because she had caused it. Usagi was the only one to get up and walk outside. She gazed at the Crecent Moon and the world shook as her pupils vanished and the Full Moon appeared un-naturally. This was not anger. This was far beyond loathing.

This was a twig that had snapped in thier hearts. This was a breakdown in the barrier between the earth and heaven. One might say that a sort of divine virginity had been lost this night.

Even the Gods and Goddesses that they had up until now been only the willing avatars for now shook with fear at the sight of thier own Children. Queen Serenity herself fell into a haze of tears from within Usagi's broken heart. From these schoolgirls were now Full Cosmic Women. It all happened so fast that thier temples bled and thier eyes shined with temporary insanity.

The Old Master locked the door to the Meditation Chamber.

There it is! The night that would not die... I hope this peaks

your interest because thier will be more to come. Please Review!

Later!
