The once golden moon that graced her forehead had eclipsed and turned a sinister black, lovely red lips parted in a smile and a long cackle rolled from her tongue.

"Come out sailor moon... you've lost your sense of love now I will punish you." Her laugh once again rang out and chilled the air.

Neo Queen Selenity was still sitting on her daughters bed, she seemed a bit dazed over the arguement they had just had. She thought back to the day five years ago when the subject of marriage was first presented to their daughter.

-:-:-:- Flashback
The family sat around their large dining room table enjoying the wonderful dinner that was placed out before them on the cool lily colored table cloth. The queen cleared her throat as she looked at her daughter of 13, "Sweetie, your father and I have been thinking about your future... we know you are still young but when you find the person you love you will come to us... am I correct?"

The pink haired maiden looked up at her mother, bright eyes shining as she gulped her food and smiled, "Of course! I want you to be the first to know mommy!" She said with a laugh as she continued to eat.

"What if... what if you don't ever find that someone... that can make you happy... what then?" Her voice wavered a bit, there was something on her mind which she didn't feel needed to be brought up at the moment but was obviously plaguing her.

Princess Small Lady tilted her head, "I haven't thought about it much... I always assumed I would find that person. Maybe you and daddy could choose me someone if I can't decide." She laughed, it seemed she was joking but the queen appeared pleased with the answer.

"Well dear, do you think we could do that?" Neo Queen Selenity asked, turning to her husband.

His head snapped up, it was obvious he hadn't been paying much attention, "Oh uh, yeah it's fine with me." He chuckled a bit nervously.

-:-:-:- End Flasback

The queen bit her lip as she sat there, a frown plastering her features, 'Maybe she's right... maybe I am blind and insensitive and a hypocrite... maybe I have lost sight of real love. I always thought this is what she wanted.'

-:-:-:- New Flashback
Queen Selenity stands in the doorway of the palace that opened into the garden, she watched a young pink haired girl of about four or five playing with a boy of about ten to twelve with wavy brown hair. "Doesn't she look happy my love?"

King Endymion nodded as he walked to stand at her side, "Yes, she has a new friend. I'm happy for her." He commented, placing his hand on his wifes shoulder.

"Yes, I hope she can always experience that happiness." She smiled watching the two children as they wreeked havock about the garden, giggling joyously as they did so.

-:-:-:- End Flashback

She dwelled in the memories of a more plesant time when suddenly her eyes shot open, a fearful gasp was breathed before she rushed to her feet and charged throught the hall, 'Please no... let this be some kind of horrible joke that my mind has tricked me into...' Her body sensed a feeling that had not coursed throughout her body for a very long time, a feeling she had prayed to never feel again. She shook and wanted to cry out as she reached the garden and the center of the forlorn emotion. Her chest tightened, eyes straining so as to prevent to onslaught of tears she felt building arounds her clear blue orbs, she shook her head as she gazed upon the form of her daughter, a side of her daughter she hoped to be rid of for good.

"W-Wicked Lady... y-you've returned..." The queen choked out the words in a stage a disbelief, she didn't want it to be true, it just wasn't acceptable.

Her daughter laughed, voice mocking with every word, "Ah, Sailor Moon, you haven't forgotten your precious daughter after all!" Lips curved in a cruel smile, "You won't be remembering anything at all, however, when I have my way with you." The feminine voice was harsh and spiteful, eyes narrowed in a freezing cold glare as she looked upon the blonde haired queen of Crystal Tokyo. "You're just as air-headed and foolish as always! Some things will never change..."

"Wh-why have you come back?!" She asked, astonished that she had resurface. Especially becuase it appeared as though she were back by her own free will, if that was the case this wouldn't be a good situation at all. Her brain was killing her with the strain being put on it by all the questions and feeling that presented themselves. 'This can't be true, this can't be happening!' it sounded through her head as she denied the moment, trying to wake herself from what must be a dream.

Wicked Lady chuckled, seeing the bewildered look on the face of her mother, her nemesis. "Why? Because I hate you!" She scowled, spiting at the ground with her distaste, "You convinced me to leave once by telling me lies about love, the truth has presented itself now and the trusth is that love is dead. Especially for me, no one could aver love me... thats why you were forcing me into marriage isn't it? ISN'T IT!!!" She screamed as she moved closer to the woman she resembled so much.

Neo Queen Selenity shook her head and opened her mouth to speak, "SHUT UP!!!" The Princess yelled, "I don't want you to talk yet!" She ordered, slamming one black, high heeled foot into the cement as her eyes burned with a fiery rage. "Is there any other reason why you would pawn off your own flesh and blood? Its the only damned reason I can think of, you hate me so much you would do anything to rid yourself of me. Furthermore, you have to engage me to a man I have never met because any normal man couldn't even possibly love me, am I right?!" Her eyes squeezed shut in frustration as the queen watched her with fear, "NOW ANSWER ME!!!" Her urge to feel in control was apparent at the way she commanded the other woman.

"I... I only wanted you... to be happy." She voice was quiet as she stared at the woman who had the body of her daughter but the soul of a deranged mental patient, she could feel tears burning to be free but they didn't come as she stood there dumbfounded.

Wicked Lady growled, "Quit toying with me, quit your damned lies and tell me the truth for once!" She felt a rush of pain in her temple, 'Stop... don't do this.' A soothing voice pleaded but she disregarded it. "What are you trying to pull?!" She was steadily slosing the gap between she and her mother before a dozen people ran into the doorway.

Confused gasps of suprise and fear were heard along with a few muttered statements of disbelief. All of the Sailor Senshi including the Sailor Quartet stood in the doorway with Neo King Endimion and Neroli, all were dressed in preparation for the wedding, drawn in by the shouts and screams that could be hear deep within the palace, they stood there staring in shock at what they saw before them.

"Princess..." Kind Endymion was able to breathe out, his voice quiet.

"Wicked Lady?! It can't be?!" Sailor Venus cried out, one hand to her mouth.

Sailor Jupiter scowled, "What have you done with Princess Small Lady Selenity?!"

"Give her back!" Mars added her plea.

Mercury looked to be on the verge of tears, biting the sensation back, "Why?"

"WHY?! Why does it matter to all of you, none of you care!" Her face was contorted angrily as the malice laden words oozed into the tension filled air.

"How can you say that?! We all care about you very much!" Mars shouted out, forgetting that it probably wasn't the best time to be arguing with her.

Wicked Lady shook with rage, "Enough! Shut your mouth you senshi slut!" She screamed back, covering her ears with slender hands.

Queen Selenity dropped to her knees, "I... just wanted you to be happy..." She mumbled, repeating the words she had said earlier, hands steadying her as she sat on the ground, head downcast and eyes fixated on the ground. King Endymion was at her side to comfort her, Neroli approaching her as well.

Neroli spoke softly to her, "You can't force happiness onto her, you tried your best but in the end she just couldn't reme-" He recieved a kick to the chin sending him sprawling onto the ground, hitting his back hard. Everyone gasped at the sudden outlash.

"If YOU haden't come along none of this would have happened!" Wicked Lady yelled at his form lying on the ground, blood beginning to trickle from his mouth. She seemed to smile with the sight of the blood trailing from his lip and was soon cackling with laughter, pleased with the result of her action. The senshi all stared at her in utter disbelief, how could she be doing this?

"W-what can I do to get you to stop this..." Selenity said, staring up from the ground, Endymion gripping her shoulder.

Wicked Lady smirked, "Die."
