I hope that you all are enjoying the story so far. I would love it if you could let me know what you think of it. Oh and by the way I do not own Sailor Moon
The final hours of the Silver Millennium...
Princess Ami ran down the palace halls trying not to fall as the palace floors shook beneath her already trembling legs. "Princess Serenity" Ami called as she ran around a corner. "Lita, Raye, Mina, where are you?" Ami tried franticly to find the other girls.
As she ran into the palace gardens, Ami was faced with the most horrifying sight she had ever seen. Everything beyond the palace walls stood in complete chaos and the palace barely looked better than that. With her feet frozen in place by shock, she stood there for a moment. All that beauty and happiness was lost to the Moon Kingdom. It truly will be if you do not hurry and find Serenity. Ami shook her head to try to get that horrific scene out of her sight and clear her head. She took another look and noticed flames shooting up in the sky. Mars! Time to end this.
Ami held up her transformation pen and yelled, "Mercury Power!" Then she was surrounded in a swirl of blue shimmering light. When the light finally faded there stood Sailor Mercury. Mercury took off at a dead run to where she had seen Mars' fire. As she approached she could see the girls were in danger. "Mercury bubbles!" All at once everything was concealed in fog.
"Mercury, where have you been?" Jupiter came up beside Mercury and smiled.
"I was trying to find all of you and Serenity," Ami said as a ball of dark energy came flying towards her. She was just able to move out of the way.
"You haven't found Serenity either," Venus yelled. "We must find her." She turned in the direction of the palace and took off toward the palace with the other Scouts on her heals.
"Leaving the party so soon, my love," called a voice from beyond the fog.
"Malachite, we must go find the Princess she is in danger." Venus ran up to him and tried to pull him along.
"Don't worry love. She will be found and killed like the Queen wants." His laugh chilled her to her bones.
"What are you talking about? You are supposed to help protect the moon." Venus no longer held his arm, but he had her wrist in a vise like grip.
"Of course love, but only after Beryl is the new Queen."
"What!" Venus tried to pull away, but he was to strong.
"Come now, join me and we shall have ultimate power together. Refuse and I shall be forced to kill you," Malachite whispered into her ear.
"Never! I shall never bow down to Beryl." Venus finally pulled her arm free.
"What a pity. You surely were such a beauty." Malachite lunged at Venus, but she leapt aside.
"Venus!" The girls tried to help her, but Venus forestalled them.
"No, go and find Serenity. Now! Venus Love Chain Encircle." Venus' chain wrapped around Malachite as the other took off. Refusing to look back to their friend.
"Very noble love, but it will not save you or them." Malachite broke free of the chain. "Now time to die my love."
"Yes, but I'm taking you with me." Venus closed her eyes and held out her hand as the symbol of Venus appeared on her forehead. Sailor Venus then transformed into Princess Mina and a yellowish-orange crystal appeared in her hands.
"Ah...the beautiful Goddess of Love. It is to bad that I must kill you." Malachite smiled cruelly at Mina and raised his sword to attack.
"As you wish my heart," Mina whispered to herself as a tear fell from her eye. "Venus Power!" Princess Mina shouted as Malachite came at her. A bright light engulfed everything around them.
"NO!" Malachite screamed as Mina's power shot through him.
Princess Mina fell to the ground and her shattered crystal fell from her hands. Slowly she crawled to Malachite's side and collapsed next to him. "Oh my love, my heart forgive me for what I have done to you," Mina whispered as her life slipped away.
Malachite lifted his hand and laid it on hers. And there in the palace garden, two young lives ended to soon.
