Chapter 17
Zoyciete, the Scouts, the Pilots, and Tuxedo Mask watched the pink glowing light that surrounded the birth of the Moon Princess. Her long blonde streamers continued to flow, her eyes were closed as she concentrated on getting her memories back. She held the crescent moon wand with her hands. Duo still laid there unconscious, not having any idea what was going on.
"Wow, Sailor Moon.." gasped Luna as her eyes widen and the crescent moon on her forehead shined a bright light. "Your Moon Princess memories are now revealed" and the glowing from her forehead stopped.
"Who would've guessed that Usagi was the Moon Princess along. Its hard to believe" stated Sailor Jupiter.
"Tell me about it" grunted Sailor Mars as she rolled her eyes.
The Moon Princess knelt down beside Duo and gently picked up his head and rested it on her lap. The pink light had stopped glowing.
The Gundam Pilots watched with confusion on what was happening with their friend. They had no idea about Duo's past life.
"What the hell is going on?" asked Heero becoming impatient.
Quatre shushed him, "Let's just see what happens"
"Enough with your silly chatter! I want that Imperial Silver Crystal and I want it now! Zoy!" yelled Zoyciete as she shot dark energy from the palm of her hand towards the Moon Princess. The energy just flew past the Princess without a scratch. The Princess slowly raised up the crescent moon wand.
"Cosmic Moon Power" her voice rang out raspy.
A bright light came from the crystal and lit up the whole room. Zoyciete covered her eyes, she was almost blinded from the light. Zoyciete screamed and flew back and hit the wall from the incredible force and landed on the ground knocked out.
The Princess set the wand next to her, "Duo Maxwell…I feel your growing weaker" sobbed the Moon Princess as tears rolled down her rosy cheeks, "Please do not go, I need you".
A small tear fell onto Duo's left cheek. Duo slowly opened his eyes, "You're finally free..Usagi. You're free and now I remember everything" whispered Duo as he grabbed the Moon Princess's hand. "I'm the God of Death, 'Shinigami'.
Princess Serenity eyes widen as she gasped, "Shinigami, I am remembering everything now too, I'm Princess Serenity of the Moon Kingdom and you were raised by Queen Beryl and the Negaverse. We were in love, but my Kingdom didn't approve. I can picture the last time we were together"
Princess Serenity and Duo were then having flashbacks of their past life, they were back on the Moon at the Moon Kingdom, "It was right before the last battle with the Negaverse, you were fighting for the White Moon family against the dark forces. It was the last time I saw you. You fought against Prince Endymion of Earth. He betrayed my people" sobbed Princess Serenity.
The Sailor Scouts gasped as they found out Tuxedo Mask was really their enemy. Tuxedo Mask over heard the story. He shook his head, "It can't be true…tell me its not true!" and he stormed off with disbelief.
Duo started to grunt with pain, Princess Serenity stroked his bangs, "And you set us free, and we're now together like we were a thousand years ago." Princess Serenity closed her eyes, "We are free" and the pink light returned, glowing, making the white gown on the Princess vanish and Usagi was back in her Sailor Moon outfit and collapsed on Duo's chest.
"Sailor Moon!" yelled Sailor Venus and she ran towards the two resting bodies with the rest of the Scouts.
Sailor Mercury picked up her body off of Duo, "I think she'll be alright, she just fainted"
"All of this was probably too much for her" suggest Luna.
"With all of those memories coming back who could blame her" agreed Artemis.
Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Mars surrounded Duo's body, Sailor Mars gently shook it trying to wake him up. "C'mon Duo wake up! It's me! Rei!"
"We have to get him to a doctor" panicked Sailor Jupiter.
"Don't touch him!" hollered a calm voice.
Sailor Mars and Sailor Jupiter looked up to see Heero, Trowa, Quatre, and Wufei standing next to them. Heero pushed Sailor Jupiter out of the way and picked up Duo carelessly. Trowa stepped in and threw Duo over his shoulder.
"What do you think your doing!" snapped Sailor Mars
"He's hurt!" added Sailor Jupiter
"Don't you think you guys caused him enough trouble as it is?" cruelly said Trowa.
"It's your fault for getting him involved in this situation" blamed Heero.
"It's his destiny! This was suppose to happen! Don't you understand that?" barked Sailor Mars forming fists.
"He lived his past life already, he doesn't need to re live it again with that stupid Moon Princess of yours" snarled Wufei.
"Why I outta kick your…" started Sailor Jupiter as she was ready to attack but Luna stepped in front of Sailor Jupiter and shook her head.
"Don't you see? Usagi and Duo are meant to be together!" pleaded Sailor Venus.
"How can you do this to them?" added Sailor Mercury.
"Duo has other important things to take care of, he doesn't need a silly girl involved in his life" coldly said Trowa as him and the rest of the pilots turned there backs towards the Scouts. "Wait! Where are you going?" asked Sailor Mars.
"Home to take care of him, from now on Duo isn't allowed to see that friend of yours, ever" Heero said as he was walking with his friends. Quatre slowly turned around to see the girls with worried looks on their faces, he knew this wasn't right. But he put up with it anyway.
"They're so heartless…" whispered Sailor Venus.
"Don't worry, its their destiny to be together and it will work out just fine. I have a feeling everything will turn out good in the end" weakly smiled Luna.
"I hope you got a good look at your Princess..'cause she's going back into history forever" weakly said Zoyciete as she was trying to stand up. Malachite then appeared next to Zoyciete and he caught her in his arms.
"Zoyciete your trembling!" panicked Malachite.
"Help me..Malachite..help me defeat them" stuttered Zoyciete.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure they won't leave. In the mean time I'm off to get something better" chuckled Malachite.
Tuxedo Mask was cursing and having a fit, "It can't be true! I can't be the enemy. I know Shinigami is the real enemy!"
The whole area started to shake and a illusion of Malachite appeared. "Come back to the dark side Prince Endymoin" A dark bubble then appeared around his body and took him into the throne room of Queen Beryl.
The Scouts were lost on what he meant, all Malachite did was smile at them and vanished with Zoyciete in his arms.
"Great work! The Moon Princess is born and has the Imperial Silver Crystal. So what are you going to do about it Malachite?" asked Queen Beryl.
"Don't worry my Queen, She's just a irresponsible teenager, I doubt she can pull it off as the Moon Princess" calmly said Malachite.
"I hope your right, I'll give you another chance" smoothly said Queen Beryl. 'Now Zoyciete, explain your behavior earlier with Tuxedo Mask"
"Please your majesty, I can explain" begged Zoyciete.
"I've gave you too many chances! Eternal sleep forever!" hollered Queen Beryl
"No! Queen Beryl please don't!" begged Malachite.
But it was too late, Queen Beryl zapped energy causing Zoyciete to fall to the ground to go below to rest for all eternity. "Let that be a warning to you Malachite"
"Yes…" stuttered Malachite.
"Now, to more important things" started Queen Beryl.
Tuxedo Mask then appeared in front of the Queen, "Queen Beryl!"
Queen Beryl chuckled, "That's me alright, Welcome to your true family Prince Endymion"
"What do you mean true family? I thought Shinigami was yours" sneered Tuxedo Mask.
"We'll worry about Shinigami later, in the mean time I better fix you up for the future" laughed Beryl. She took her hand and sent Tuxedo Mask down below to where the energy was taken place and Tuxedo Mask opened his eyes inside a tube with pink liquid. He tried to get out but it was too strong.
"Great energy of the Negaforce, do we have enough energy to prince back Prince Endymions true self?" asked Queen Beryl bowing.
"Yes, but go slowly. He'll be back to his old self from a thousand years ago" simply stated the Negaforce.
Queen Beryl and her Master both laughed as Tuxedo Mask was going to transform into the evil Prince Endymoin like he was years ago.
The Scouts walked around looking for the exit of the creepy cave that they were in. "Which way Mercury?" asked Sailor Venus.
"Hold on, I'm still getting ratings" replied Sailor Mercury as she continued to punch in buttons on her computer. "Its really had to get a answer in this place"
Sailor Jupiter grunted with Sailor Moon resting on her back, "Hurry Ami, because I don't know how long I can carry this meatball head on my back"
"I heard that.." grunted Sailor Moon as she was started to slowly wake up.
"She's waking up!" cheered Sailor Venus.
"Are you ok Usagi?" asked Sailor Jupiter.
"Do you remember anything?" asked Sailor Mars.
Sailor Moon was slowly looking around and finally realized what happened. "Duo! Where is he?" she asked as she jumped off of Sailor Jupiter's back.
"Is he hurt? What happened to him? Why isn't he here?" flipped Sailor Moon looking at all of her friends hoping they would give her an answer.
"His friends..took him away, they don't want you two to see each other" sadly said Sailor Mars.
'Wh-what? Why?" asked Sailor Moon.
"They feel we caused him trouble. But its not our fault, this was suppose to happen" stated Sailor Venus.
"What about Tuxedo Mask?" asked Sailor Moon.
"He stormed off once he found he's the enemy." Sailor Jupiter said as she walked towards Sailor Moon.
Sailor Moon eyes watered, "Oh Duo, what are we going to do. I have to see him"
"Get it together you guys, I understand everything is in shock for you but you need to understand your pasts. Luna and I are just remembering everything." explained Artemis.
"Are we part of the Moon Kingdom too?" asked Sailor Jupiter.
"Yeah Jupiter, if Usagi's the Moon Princess then we must have been her court and we had important jobs ourselves" answered Sailor Venus.
"Exactly" started Artemis, " Long ago back in the Moon Kingdom, we lived in a peaceful time called 'The Silver Millennium' when all the planets were at peace and Princess Serenity lived there at the castle that was owned by her Mother Queen Serenity. Prince Endymion and Princess Serenity were to marry, but Princess Serenity fell in love with a evil God that everyone feared, known as Shinigami or the God of Death. Prince Endymion became jealous and wanted power to rule the Moon Kingdom and the planets so he joined sides with Beryl. During the battle, Queen Serenity locked Beryl's strongest warriors in the crystal and sent them to earth. However, the Moon Kingdom was destroyed and sent that's when you guys were sent here to a new future on earth. You girls were Princesses of your planets and you were Princess Serenity's court and that's when we come in" explained Artemis.
"So Serenity wanted us to be happy" finished Sailor Venus.
Luna and Artemis nodded there heads, "And your battle has just begun with the Negaverse. In the end, I know we can beat them" winked Luna.
"I don't want to fight" mumbled Sailor Moon.
"Why? You're our leader" asked Sailor Jupiter.
"I don't care, I just want to be a normal teenager with a normal life" cried Sailor Moon.
"You're just stressed, you need some rest" suggested Luna.
"I'm fine! I just don't want to be Sailor Moon anymore!" snapped Sailor Moon, she then looked down at the ground. "And Tuxedo Mask is the enemy and I can't see Duo anymore. I can't handle this" and Usagi fell to the ground crying.
"Usagi, get it together! You're a great leader right after how I saw you defeat Zoyciete" complemented Sailor Mars.
Sailor Moon weakly smiled, "Really?"
"OK guys, I found the exit out of here" announced Sailor Mercury.
"Great! Let's go get some burgers and get our minds off of what happened" said Luna with a smile.
"Sure lets go" agreed Sailor Venus and the rest of the scouts followed Sailor Mercury out.
As they were leaving Sailor Moon thought to herself quietly, "Don't worry Duo, I'll see you again, I know it"
Yeah crappy ending on this one, promise the next chapter will be better R/R please!
