A/N: There's a line here that is from the movie Troy so that means I don't own it although I hope I did:) That line was the inspiration for this story! Enjoy!

Chapter 15 - Power of Love

"Your fight is with me." Prince Endymion said.

The dark princess walked towards him and stopped. "Do you honestly think that you can defeat me?" she asked.

"No...But I don't think that this has anything to do with your powers. This fight...this darkness has something to do with what you feel." he replied.

The dark princess fist began to tremble, she stared vehemently at the prince. "What do you know about how I feel?"

"I know because I'm the reason why you feel that way." he retorted.

The dark princess gritted her teeth. Her nose began to flare and her fist was so tight that she began to bleed. She opened her eyes wide and began to harness her dark energy. The darkness illuminated her whole body. She gave out a violent scream and blasted Endymion. He took a step back as he got blasted but he was still standing.

"You won't be standing for long!" she exclaimed as she balsted him again. The prince simply took it eventhough his outfit was being slowly slashed and sharp glasses cuts through his skin.

"I know that I've hurt you so many times. I've been cold towards you, lied to you...even cheated. I know that sorry wouldn't even cut it anymore." he started.

It seemed like what Endymion said affected her so much that she gave out a much stronger blast. The prince falls on his knees as the intensity of her blast overwhelmed him. The scouts tried to help but he raised his arms, telling them to stay out of it. Like carrying the fate of the world on his shoulder, he gets up.

"I'm sorry that I've hurt you...I'm sorry that I cheated on you...but eventhough you kill me, I will always love you." Enymion said as he started to walk towards the princess.

The dark princess gave out more energy and lets out another cry. As the prince came nearer, her blast was getting weaker. She began to exhaust her energy.

"I love you, Usako...I love you...I love you..." he kept on repeating those three words as he comes nearer.

The princess began to cry and her blast was getting weaker by the second. Endymion hold her by her arms and looked deep into her eyes.

"I love you." he said.

The princess closed her eyes and pushed Endymion off her. She closed her fist and began to pummel him. Endymion doesn't avoid her punches, he takes it all.

"Why? Why did you do it?" she cried as she punches. "I gave you everything...I gave you my heart and soul! I've given you my life and that was still not enough for you. I trusted you!"

Tears continuously fall from her eyes. Slowly, her black outfit and wings began to change back into white. It seemed like letting out all the emotions that she stored for a long time.

"I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!" she screamed as she hits him. Her punches became minimal hits on his chest. Then as she repeated those three words, she was reduced to pounding on his chest. Her clothes and wings are back to white.

She has stopped pounding on Endymion's chest and is now crying very hard. He wraps his arms around her and tears fall from his eyes. There were no more words to say. No more emotions to feel. The two stood in front of the scouts and the remaining two starlights, looking at peace.

When everything seems to be alright, a sudden quake hits the city. The dark crystal was still gathering energy and the city was still being destroyed.

"Oh no! The city!" Minako exclaimed

"Why is it still happening? Usagi's back...why didn't it stop?" Rei asked.

"It's too powerful now. The dark crystal doesn't need Usagi's emotions to power itself anymore. We have to stop it." Setsuna replied.

"How? We can't transfrom...we gave out our powers to the prince." Ami said.

"We have to try. Find a way." Haruka retorted. Then they hear a grunt and they see the prince falling to the ground.

"Mamo-chan..." Usagi said as she placed his head on her lap.

Endymion opened his eyes and smiled at Usagi. "I've been waiting a long time to hear you say that again."

"You'll always be my Mamo-chan." Usagi smiled back. Endymion reached out for her hand and she takes it. Again, tears fall from her eyes. When he began to cough up blood, she wiped his mouth with her dress. She knew that he was dying.

"I'm sorry." she whispered.

"No...don't be. I told you that I will always love you, no matter what." he slightly gets up, just enough for their faces to meet.

"Usako, All of my life...even the one before, I've been fighting this war and the only thing that kept me going all these years is you. You have been my light...my soul...my heart. Usako, you gave me peace in a lifetime of war." he leaned over and they kissed. After that, with his last breath, he touched Usagi's face and dies.

Sadness filled everyone as they see their prince die. Another quake hits them, this time it was very stong that cracks appeared in the ground. The beam of dark energy grows larger. The scouts look at each other, not knowing what to do. They knew that this was it...it was the end. Then Usagi stands up and looked at them with a serene look on her face. Their eyes widened in realization.

"No! There must be another way!" Haruka barked.

"Please, Usagi-chan...You can't!" Rei exclaimed.

"It might not even work...please, don't leave us!" Ami cried. Usagi smiled at them. The serene look on her face somehow calmed them down. She began to talk in a tranquil voice.

"This is what I have to do. Don't be sad...don't mourn. I love you and will always love you...all of you. And I will never leave your side. You all gave me the strength to fight each day. I will always treasure you're friendship...the laughter, the tears and those wonderful memories will always be with me. I have to end it here...but it doesn't mean that we can't have a new beginning, please remember that. Always remember that eventhough the world seems to turn its back on you, it doesn't mean that nobody cares. Hope for a better future, have faith in yourself and each other. Most importantly, don't forget to love."

One by one, the scouts stood up. Tears fall from their eyes as they nodded at Usagi. They watched her walk towards the beam. Usagi walked closer and closer, her hands were on her chest, holding something that is very dear to her heart. It was the ring that Mamoru gave her. The ring she promised to treasure. It was the mark of their love. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She could see Mamoru right beside her, holding her as she stepped into the beam.

The scouts held their breath as Usagi enters the beam. The ground began to shake violently, still they kept their ground. Suddenly, the beam gave out a very strong blast of blinding white light that passed through the whole city. There was nothing...no quakes, no noise, not even the wind was present. The white light cloaked everything...and everyone.
