Chapter 5: The wait pt 3

~Luna's torture, continued: The other half of the team~

"Pluto" Green called out. "She's gone. . ."

"Oniisan" Silver softly whispered.

Moments later Blue and Red felt the lives end for Neptune and Uranus. Sailor Venus, Sailor Mercury, Silver Ninja and Blue Ninja finally reached the Queen in her room. She was about to unlock the silver box that contained the ginzuishou (Usagi's Note: Silver Crystal) and the cresent moon wand.

"Queen Serenity!" Venus cried out.

"Do not use the ginzuishou. You know you will die if you do. . ." Mercury sadly said.

"I have already lost my precious daughter, the kingdom is being annihilated, and many are dying. I have to use the ginzuishou in order for all of you to be safe and happy. . .So Serenity's light will continue. . ."

At that moment the other 4 burst through the doors and immediately slammed them closed holding them shut.

"There's too many of them, we couldn't hold them off." Mars said gasping for air.

"There are at least 50 of them at the door and the number continues to increase. We'll have to use our energy to create a path to guide the Queen to safety. . ." Mercury planned as she was looking through her visor and typing on her hand held computer.

"Where is safety exactly?" Red asked.

"The ballroom."

"Okay, are you ready your majesty?" Silver asked.

Queen Serenity grabbed the silver box and nodded.

"Alright you guys. This is it. Mars, Jupiter, Red, Green, you four shall lead, with the Queen behind you. The rest of us will be following behind the Queen." Venus commanded. "On 3. . .1. . .2. . .3!"

They let the doors fly open and called,

"Mars Power!"

"Jupiter Power!"

"Venus Power!"

"Mercury Power!"

The girls created a protective barrier surrounding all of them and the Queen.

"Silver Saturn Power!"

"Blue Neptune Power!"

"Red Uranus Power!"

"Green Pluto Power!"

Continuous beams of energy shot out and blasted through the youmas and soldiers, creating a path to the ballroom. They all ran as youmas and soldiers tried to break the barrier.

"The ballroom didn't seem this far before!!" Red complained.

All eight of them were beginning to feel weak. Finally they reached the ballroom. No one was there. . .so they thought. They powered down. Mars and Red melted the doors shut.

(Usagi's Note: yeah yeah, I know what you're thinking, "Why didn't they do that before when they were in the Queen's room?" I like the ballroom, so there! ;p)

Then a black light shined in the center of the room. Moonlight Knight appeared.

"What are you doing here?!" Jupiter exclaimed.

"You were sent into exile for trying to kidnap Serenity and break her innocence. . .how did you escape?" Mercury curiously asked.

"Beryl. Now, where is my sweet Serenity?"

(Usagi's Note: *lol* that sound like a candy! "Sweet Serenity"! Ok, so I'm strange!!)

"She's no longer with us." Queen Serenity informed him.

"Idiot." Mars said under her breath.

Moonlight closed his eyes as if he was searching. "No! This can not be!!"

Moonlight's energy exploded from him in a dome shape.

"Oh no!" the Queen shouted.

The 8 warriors surrounded the Queen and made the energy force field once again. Moonlight's energy destroyed the ballroom.

"He's too strong!" Jupiter yelled.

"We have to protect the Queen!" Venus shouted.

Moonlight's energy slowly began to crack their force field , and they were losing their strength and began to sink down to their knees.

"We're sorry your majesty. We completely failed you. . ." Venus whispered.

The force field shatter and Moonlight's energy killed the 8. Their bodies shielded the Queen. Moonlight's energy faded and the 8 warriors' bodies fell to the broken ceramic floor.

"Beryl!!" Moonlight ran in search of Beryl.

Sailor Saturn ran to the Queen's side, her tear stained face appeared sadden once more at the sight of last brother and tears fell.

"Oniikun!!"

(Usagi's Note: In Japanese, I don't think that's correct. But *shrugs shoulders* it's cute)

Sailor Saturn faced the youmas and soldiers and shouted, "Silence Glaive Surprise!"

She sent half of the army to their deaths. Beryl fired an energy ball the size of a pea at Saturn's tiara. It crushed the jewel and shot out of the back of Saturn's head. She died and fell immediately. Queen Serenity watched in horror.

Beryl laughed maliciously. "She was strong. . .look at your kingdom. It's over!"

"Moonlight Darkness Beam!"

Beryl teleported out of the way.

"You ungrateful little fool!"

Moonlight flew up to her and the two began to argue. Queen Serenity saw this opportunity to use the ginzuishou. She opened the box and grabbed the sacred jewel (Usagi's Note: Inuyasha!!) and wand. As she placed the ginzuishou atop the wand, Luna and Artimes came from their hiding place.

"No Queen Serenity!" Luna said.

"You will die!" Artimes said.

"This is the only way. . ."

(Usagi's Note: Well boys and girls, you know what happens next! If not. . .Shame on you for not being a SM fan!! J/k but if you're wondering what happens to Moonlight in all this. . .Queen Serenity is kind hearted and gave him another chance for happiness. . .figuring he wouldn't remember anything and wouldn't go back to chasing Princess Serenity. . .um yeah, she was wrong! ;p
