Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon or Dragonball Z. You do know what I own though.
I would like to sincerely apologize to those who have read this story all the way to this chapter. I haven't been able to update because of some technical difficulties with my internet and not only that I had to get ready for a VERY important dance. I really hope this chapter makes up for me not being able to update. And also on further note of my apologizing, I am shortening this story because I am completely running out of ideas to add to it. I am also starting another story about Riddick from Pitch Black and The Chronicles of Riddick. I hope I can finish it soon, but if you don't find one about him written by me then you will find an Angel episode written by me called Deadly Blood. Well I hope you like this chapter. Enjoy.
Chapter 23
Death to a friend
Cosmos looked down at the body of her fallen friend. Cosmos felt as guilty as if she killed him by accident. Neptune and Mercury may not have known the guy but they new the pain of losing someone you loved dearly friend or partner. Cosmos looked at the faces of her two other friends.
'Two? Where are the others?' thought Cosmos. Vageta and Goku stood up as they recovered from the shock of the blast. Vageta looked at Trunk's charred body and then looked back to Rini and Luna. His eyes blazed with hatred that he never felt before. Rini and Luna backed away just a little from his stare. They did not like his glare he was giving them. They could feel the hatred blaze of his body like fire.
"You tried to take over the moon kingdom, you betray your queen and mother and now you've killed my soon. Do NOT think you will get away with this you BITCH!" Vageta's power level soared at an amazing level as he stood there and hollered. Everyone backed away as the colossal force of the wind flapped around him. Vageta's hair turned blonde and stood on its ends. He placed his hands out in front of him and he shot his attack.
A giant red ball began to form in the palms of his hands and flames burned around it. As soon as it was about six feet round in diameter he raised it above his head and it grew larger still, but they noticed it had stopped at about thirteen diameters. He hollered again and let the giant fire ball loose. It soared threw the air towards Rini and Luna. The flung their arms up just as the attack stuck them full force to the body. The giant ball drove their body into the ground, tearing up their clothes and ripping and slashing skin. The attack dissipated and their body was revealed. Cosmos, Uranus, Neptune and Mercury looked at the body that lay yards away. They walked slowly towards the body. Cosmos stopped to see if Vageta was alright. He was standing there breathing real hard, his body hunched over in an exhausted position and his arms slung in front of him. Goku walked quickly over to him and helped him sit on the ground.
"Go see if that lady is dead or not. If she's still alive, I'm going to need to get him out of here otherwise the moon will no longer exist." Cosmos nodded and returned to her friends to check on Rini and Luna. The body was cut and torn everywhere and blood stained the ripped clothing. More skin was showing than what was really necessary from what the actual clothes would have been showing. It was exposing little bits of her body that usually a girl of her age was not showing.
Rini and Luna's body moved a bit and then moaned in pain. After a minute of the moaning she began to laugh hysterically.
"Damn, she's gone crazy." said Mercury.
"Goku get Vageta and yourself out of here. This will be one battle you can't help with." said Uranus. Goku nodded and grabbed a hold of Vageta and they teleported off the moon to Earth. The scouts turned back to Rini and Luna. She was now partly standing up. She was hunched over holding onto her arm that had a really bad gash in it. She was still laughing like a maniac.
"What the hell do you find so funny?" asked Neptune. Luna and Rini gave another burst of laughter.
"No matter how hard you try you will never beat me. I'm the killer remember. I will win this war no matter what happens. All I need is the Stone of Nightmares and I will seal your death." She went to grab for the stone from her side pocket, but it wasn't there. "WHERE IS THE STONE?!"
"Eh-hem. You looking for this?" said Uranus holding up the Stone of Nightmares in her right hand. Rini and Luna glared at her. "I'm afraid to say this because I don't want you to go even crazier on us but I snitched this beautiful, but deadly stone from your pocket when we were in our hand to hand combat. It was rather easy when Neptune and Mercury were distracting you and if I do say so myself they did a fine job." Rini and Luna looked shocked or horror stricken at the least. She backed away a few feet and then stopped. Her body was becoming paralyzed by her injuries and she fell to the ground. Mercury knew exactly what was going on with her body.
"It seems that her body is finally taking its toll on her. The one body was having trouble stabilizing to immortal beings as one and with her injuries it upped the process of giving up and gave out on them. She can still put up a good fight even though she is down for awhile. We need to use the stone on her before that body splits in two." Uranus nodded and held the Stone of Nightmares out in front of her and it began to glow red like blood. A red light washed over Rini's and Luna's body and they screamed in pain as her hands flung to her head covering her ears. Her body all at once curled up into a ball on her side and she was screaming out in pain.
Cosmos, Uranus, Neptune and Mercury watching as Rini and Luna saw flash backs of their past flash before their eyes. Uranus fell to the ground from the immense power that the Stone was giving off and she dropped the Stone. It shattered on the ground and the dust left from the Stone blew away. Rini and Luna screamed in agony as the flashes of the past became worst.
"Mommy!" came young Rini's voice from the air.
"Serenity." spoke Luna's as well. "We're behind you." Uranus, Cosmos, Neptune and Mercury turned around and saw the two standing behind them. Rini was once again a young child and Luna her young self as well. "We are sorry for what we have done. We had no control over what we did. What we told you was a lie and we shall pay with our lives. We we're weak to have fallen to God of War's trick. Raye was in the whole scheme as well. Artemis and Mina were also just pawns to kill you. We tried to fight them off but we could not."
"Mommy will you forgive us?" Cosmos's eyes began to water fiercely and she fell to her bleeding knees. She held out her arms and Rini ran to her. Rini clung to her mother hard and cried.
"I do forgive you Rini. Both of you."
"Rini we must go now. We need to return to where we belong. You to Neptune. Mercury. Uranus..." Uranus looked up from staring at Cosmos and Rini. "The gods have granted you the wish of staying on earth with Serenity and protecting Earth from other evil." Uranus nodded in understanding. Rini gave her mother one last hug and walked back over to Luna and grabbed her hand. Neptune and Mercury hugged Uranus and Cosmos good-bye and joined Luna and Rini.
"Pray we meet again my Queen." said Mercury. In seconds they disappeared into a ball of light and flew up to the stars among the gods. Uranus and Cosmos turned to where the evil Rini and Luna once laid. Nothing was there only dust of the charred body.
"Self-combustion." said Cosmos. Uranus nodded and turned to Cosmos, transforming back to Amera. Cosmos turned back to Serenity and faced Amera.
"We finally defeated her...them I mean. The evil is gone and we can be together." said Amera. Serenity smiled and the two leaned in and kissed. They part after awhile and turned to face Earth that was now rising like the Sun to the Earth.
"Let's go home, Amera."
