Chapter 5
"Training? What Training?" asked Duo a bit puzzled
Malachite grunted, "Just get up!"
Duo quickly jumped to his feet as he heard the mans roar, "But Malachite, why are you training me?"
Malachite turned around and looked at the boy; "So you can whipe out the White Moon family and kill Princess Serenity"
"What!" yelled Duo as he developed an angry face; "There's no way you are going to make me kill anyone! I'm done with that!"
"You think so?" asked Malachite as he formed a dark energy ball in his hand and threw it at Duo.
Duo flew back and hit the wall then fell to the floor, Duo cried out in pain. He slowly opened his eyes to see Malachite coming his way. He squinted his eyes and slowly got up holding onto his scythe. "I'm not going to kill the Princess" he whispered raspy under his breath.
"You will do what Queen Beryl orders you to do!" shouted Malachite as he flew up into the air and threw a bunch of light blue boomerang type lasers at Duo. Duo stood there taking the pain, tears were rolling down his cheeks as the lasers were coming at him one by one.
Duo then screamed as one of the lasers cut the side of his arm and he fell down backwards. He quickly covered his wound with his hand. He panted rapidly, he then took his hand off of the wound and saw the blood all over his hand.
"Get up!" ordered Malachite as he touched the ground and started to walk towards Duo. Duo just sat there looking at the blood in his hand. Malachite became very irritated by the boy, he then kicked Duo against the wall. Duo just laid there helpless.
"Are you that weak? Or are you just stubborn?" joked Malachite out of his cocky mouth.
Duos eyes then turned red and he glared at Malachite underneath from his chestnut brown bangs. Malachite waited for Duo to get up with his arms crossed against his chest. "Well?"
Duo slowly got up and his eyes were flashing red and he had no emotion on his face, a neon purple light began to form around his body as he rose a few inches above the ground. A sly smirk spread across Malachite's face "This is it" he thought to himself.
Duo raised his head up making eye contact with Malachite, the veins in his skin began to pop out, the God of Death was pissed. Duo twirled his scythe in the air and screamed and he zoomed towards Malachite. Malachite just smiled.
Malachite dodged the attack and began fighting with Duo in the mid air. Duo kept swinging his scythe at Malachite, but Malachite kept dodging the attacks with a smirk on his face. Malachite then decided to throw some punches at Duo. Every punch Malachite threw, Duo dodged.
"His power, its growing rapidly!" thought Malachite in shock. Duo was almost as quick as Malachite.
The two boys fought for hours and hours and neither of them got hit once, Malachite and Duo were both sweating and panting. They both paused for a second to catch some air.
"Are you tired?" chuckled Malachite as he panted.
"Are you?" responded Duo as he gave him a dirty look.
"I'm just getting started" laughed Malachite as he ran to attack Duo.
Malachite jumped in the air and once again, threw a bunch of his laser boomerangs at the child. Duo missed all the attacks and raised his scythe and cut the side of Malachite's leg. Malachite screamed and fell to his knees.
Duo stood up and grinned at Malachite as he was crying in pain. Malachite looked up at Duo and noticed that he didn't go back to his normal self of a little boy dressed in black carrying a scythe, but he was a little boy with a purple neon glow that surrounded his body and he hair gently flowing holding his scythe.
Duo gave a little chuckle and walked towards Malachite, he bent down and looked at Malachite in the eye; "I guess I am powerful after all" and punched Malachite in the gut and walked away.
Malachite laid on the floor helpless, Zoycite then walked in on the boys, "What's going on in here?" she then saw Malachite on the ground and Duo walking towards her. "Malachite!" she cried out. She ran to her lovers aid, she looked over at Duo leaving the room and her jaw dropped, "What happened?" asked Zoycite.
"His power, grew so rapidly" whispered Malachite as he rested his head on Zoycites lap.
"You mean he's finally…"stuttered Zoycite.
Malachite slowly nodded his head, "He's finally in his true form, the God of Death"
Zoycite looked to see Duo's shadow leaving both Zoycite and Malachite alone in the room.
Duo walked down the halls and entered the throne room to see Queen Beryl alone. Queen Beryl noticed the neon purple glow that was coming her way. "what's this!" she asked out loud.
Nephlite was in shock as well, "Your highness, I think in just a small amount of time, Duo got to his true form"
Queen Beryl stood up as Duo approached her and bowed before her, "Your highness, I had fought with Malachite for hours long, and I finally defeated him"
"What!" asked Beryl in shock.
"It's true!" called out a voice.
Queen Beryl turned to the side to see Zoycite helping Malachite walk. Beryl couldn't believe on what she was seeing, Duo defeated one of her strongest Generals of the Negaverse.
"Duo wounded Malachite" cried out Zoycite.
Queen Beryl put her eyes back on Duo, she gave him a smile "Well then, do you except your mission? I believe Malachite has told you by now".
Duo nodded his head, "I will train for years and become more powerful and destroy the White Moon family. This power in my body makes me feel so different"
Queen Beryl began to laugh and she walked down the aisle towards the little boy. "Come now, I will put you to rest in my negative energy beds that will help your strength and power grow" she said as he let out her hand.
Duo grabbed her hand and walked with her towards the back room where Duo would rest.
Princess Serenity sat alone by the pond where her and Duo were two days ago. She had a bored look on her face and she just sat there making a crown full of flowers. She was thinking about what Sailor Pluto had told her last night, she didn't say a word to anyone. It was a big secret between her and Sailor Pluto.
Queen Serenity watched her daughter from the distance, "I think its time" she thought to herself. She walked down the palace gardens and walked up behind the Princess.
"Usagi" she said softly.
Princess Serenity turned around and looked up at her Mother. Queen Serenity knelt down beside the child. "Are you ready?"
"For what?" asked Princess Serenity.
"Your training, to become future Queen" smiled Queen Serenity.
"But Mother, I'm still a little kid" pouted Princess Serenity.
Queen Serenity chuckled, "You may be a little kid, but the more skilled you are the better Queen you will become. In 10 years from now Usagi, I need to have you trained by then because you will be a bride to be."
Princess Serenity blinked her eyes, "You mean I'm still going to marry that mean Prince from Earth?"
"Oh Usagi, he'll be mature by then so don't worry about it" sighed Queen Serenity. "Now come on, its time for your training"
Princess Serenity grabbed her Mother's hand and they walked into the palace together hand in hand.
