A/n: Here is the last chapter. I hope you enjoy it. Thanks to everybody who reviewed.
Last time:
Usagi shook her head slowly. "I didn't want to believe you were a traitor until now, Tom Riddle."
Tom Riddle, better known as Voldemort, laughed. "A pity that even the Woman with A Thousand Eyes did not realize that I was from a different dimension. Rhaiva did not trust me and I had to work hard to direct his suspicions away from me. It was no easy task, I'll admit. Now I've come to destroy that fool Dumbledore and Harry Potter. Afterwards I'll destroy you and the heir to the throne." Tom Riddle exclaimed. Usagi snarled and launched an attack at him. He only laughed as it passed right through him. "For now I'm only an illusion. I wanted you to see who destroyed the Shiana Empire and who will soon be the ruler of this world. I'll come back to finish them off in a little bit. For now enjoy fighting my Death Eaters." Tom Riddle laughed and vanished. The death eaters turned to her and grinned.
Hermione who had followed Usagi in her headlong rush saw the army of Death Eaters and raced to get the professors. They were all in the Great Hall along with the remaining students, including Harry and Ron. "Headmaster, Headmaster!" Hermione screamed as she skidded into the Great Hall. Dumbledore stood up. "What is it Miss Granger?" Dumbledore questioned concernedly. "It's Usagi, she's fighting an army of death eaters and Tom Riddle!" Hermione exclaimed. This brought all the professors to their feet, especially Snape and the two new teachers. Upon hearing this, the four remaining Shianans rushed to their feet and raced out the hall. The senshi followed them. "Where are they, Granger?" Snape demanded harshly. Harry narrowed his eyes at this display of emotions in the Potions professor. "They're just outside the castle, sir." Hermione said, just as surprised as Harry. Snape was the first to leave, followed by the other professors and trio. The other students were too shocked by what had happened to do anything but sit there.
Usagi was busy dodging spells and retaliating when she saw Jhavi out of the corner of her eye. Growling she sent Mayvar the command to keep Jhavi well protected. He nodded and then he told Elena and Colana to stay with Jhavi. After that he and Costria leapt into action. A few moments later she saw the senshi come out already transformed. They too jumped into the battle. She last track of them as she threw another attack at a death eater. Luckily that one stayed down. She saw the professors come out with Severus at the head. Her heart flipped over when she saw him. Then she saw Harry, Ron and Hermione run out too. She worked harder than ever to keep the three threatened people safe.
The day was now drawing to a close and still they were fighting. For every one that went down two more came to take his place. At the moment when everyone was growing tired the death eaters suddenly drew back and the two sides faced each other. Harry suddenly doubled over as a sudden flare of pain ripped through his scar. "Voldemort is here." He announced. Just as he said that Voldemort himself came out in his new body followed by Wormtail. "Now Ilyena if you would be so kind as to step aside and let me defeat Potter and Dumbledore I'll deal with you and that traitor Snape later." Voldemort hissed. "Over my dead body." Usagi growled. A small war might have erupted between the two, but was stalled by two things happening. First the full moon rose and then Cho Chang, Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter and Justin Finch-Fletchley came floating out to the center of the battlefield, surrounded by a golden glow. Everyone including the four students had no idea what was going on. Usagi and the four Shianans knew what was going on however. They had seen this magic only once, but they knew its purpose. This was the goddess taking on her famous revenge. Justin raised his hands and said, "I summon the magic of the earth." Cho raised her hands and said, "I summon the magic of the storm." Malfoy raised his hands and said, "I summon the power of fire." Harry then raised his hands and said, "I summon the wild magic who combines all the others." Around the students a kind of dome surrounded them. It swirled with every imaginable color and sparked with unreleased magic. In the dome the face of the Goddess Shiko appeared. She focused her eyes on Voldemort and smiled. "You destroyed my empire so now I will bring about your destruction." The students then began to chant in the ancient languages of the gods. Voldemort, growing panicked, raised his wand and prepared to attack them. Usagi however jumped in front of him just as he released an Avada Kedavra straight at the students. All the others saw was the flash of green light and then the sound of a body being dropped to the ground. At that moment Harry's eyes snapped open and he released a blast of magic so powerful that Voldemort and the death eaters were all flung backwards. When the dust settled not one of them moved. Voldemort's body however shook and trembled with the pure magic that coursed through it. It shook so hard that it was blown to pieces and the biggest piece left of the Dark Lord was no bigger than a thumbnail.
When everyone got over the shock that the Dark Lord was finally dead they saw Professor Snape cradling Usagi's head in his lap. A second feeling of shock settled over them as they saw Harry, the four Shianans and the senshi race over to him. Jhavi was in shock. He had always thought his aunt was invincible. She had always managed to come out on top in some very dangerous situations. Harry was also in shock. He had thought he had finally found a family member who wouldn't die on him. Severus couldn't think straight. She was the one woman who had cared for him and dare he thought loved him. The senshi were still shocked but they had seen their Princess die several times.
Usagi was floating in a black void. She shivered and looked around. She had no idea where she was. However she suddenly was transported to a place she was familiar with. This was the one place where the actual forms of both mortals and gods were safe, The Place Between Worlds. She was not expecting the assembly of all the gods and goddesses worshipped in the Shiana Empire. Like always Shiko was at the head of the gods. However it was Ava and Yava, the twin gods of death, who spoke up. "Usagi Alkyra, Chosen of the Goddess Shiko, Countess of Cortay, Duchess of Regalia, Ilyena Dhai'hava, High Councilor to the Emperor, Grand High Priestess of the Temples, Princess of the Moon, Heir to the Silver Millenium, Sailor Moon, and Future Queen of Crystal Tokyo you have been called before the Highest Assembly of the Gods to decide your fate." Ava said. Yava then spoke up next. "You did a noble deed in protecting the four instruments of the Goddess Shiko so that they may complete their job. However, you should not have interfered in that manner. Nothing would have happened when the spell hit the dome. The Assembly is split in half. One side wishes you to return to that world. The other half wishes you to take your rest in the sleep of the gods. Since it is a tie we have decided to let you pick." Usagi thought for a long moment. The rest of the gods was a very tempting idea. Then she thought of Severus and instantly her heart turned over. She also thought of the four Shianans, Harry and the senshi. Did she really want to leave them to mourn her? Usagi decided she didn't want to do that. Usagi stood up straighter and addressed the Assembly. "With all due respect I can not leave that world alone and if it is possible I wish to rebuild the Shiana Empire." The gods smiled to themselves. That was exactly the answer they had been hoping for. "Then return to that world with our blessings." Shiko said. The Highest Assembly of the Gods faded from her view as she returned to her body.
Usagi gave a small groan as she opened her eyes. The first face she saw was Severus Snape. She gave him a small smile then looked around. It was dark out so she figured it must still be night. "Where am I?" She asked Snape. "You're in the Hospital Wing. It's been two days since the battle." Snape told her. That's when she noticed the dark circles under his eyes and his scruffy appearance. "Have you stayed here the entire time?" She asked softly. He nodded slowly. Usagi smiled and pulled him down for a long and satisfying kiss. When they pulled apart he grinned at her. "Go get changed and get some sleep." Usagi ordered him. "I'll be alright." Snape didn't really want to leave her, but he gave her another kiss and then left. A few minutes later Harry, Ron, Hermione, Jhavi and the senshi rushed in. Jhavi immediately tackled her and refused to let go. Usagi grinned and sat up. "We thought you were dead." Harry exclaimed. "Yeah, how ever did you escape from the Killing Curse?" Hermione exclaimed.
"The Highest Assembly of the Gods allowed me to return." Usagi said softly. "I'm glad they did." Jhavi said softly with his head still burrowed in her chest. Usagi laughed softly and hugged him closer. The senshi grinned and hugged their Princess.
Later that day Madame Pomfrey let Usagi go from the hospital. The teachers and the few students that had remained behind for Christmas celebrated with the traditional dinner. Everyone had a good time, stuffing themselves and pulling out things from the wizard crackers. Harry however was watching Usagi and when she excused herself he followed. Harry quickly caught up to her and pulled her into one of the empty rooms. "I need to know something." Harry said to her. "Ask away." Usagi replied. "What is going on with you and Professor Snape?" He demanded. Usagi sighed and sat down. "Is it a crime to love him?" She asked softly. Harry wanted to relent but forced himself to her about Snape. "You do know that he was a former Death Eater, don't you?" He asked. "No, but you said former. I've seen one of the most dangerous killers become one of the kindest people. People do change Harry. Since Snape was fighting the death eaters not helping them I'd say he is reformed." Usagi said softly. Harry sighed and sank to his knees in front of her. "I just don't want to see you get hurt." Harry said. Usagi smiled and hugged him. "Thank you for thinking of me."
When the rest of the school returned from Christmas break they were astounded at the tales they were told. None of them could believe the fact that the Dark Lord was finally dead, once and for all. Neither did the Ministry of Magic apparently. There were so many Ministry representatives swarming the school for a long while that the classes were disrupted. Finally though everything was sorted out and the classes continued.
At the end of the school year Gryffindor won the House Cup and everyone had a great time. Harry was holding his breath because Usagi was going to talk to Dumbledore about taking him back with her to the Shiana Empire. Usagi came walking down the stairs with Snape behind her. "Good news Harry. You're coming with Severus and myself to the Shiana Empire. Also Hermione and Ron are welcome to come if they get permission." Usagi told Harry. Harry was less than thrilled about Snape, but immediately cheered up. No more Dursley's!
Hermione and Ron gained permission to go. On the day of departure, Usagi, the four Shianans, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Snape and the eight senshi gathered in the courtyard. A carriage pulled by the fire horses of the goddess Shiko arrived. Everyone piled in, waved goodbye to the Professors and headed off to the Shiana Empire.
A/n: So what do you guys think? That is the last chapter in Revenge. I will probably write a sequel if I get enough reviews. Review and tell me what everybody thinks.
