Chapter 7

Venus found herself alone with Healer. They were facing Evil Yuna, all the other were unconscious.

"Well, well, well… I decided to fight you two by two. Just to let you a chance… but of course, at two or fifteen, you have none. But I thought it would be more enjoying that way."

"What did you do with the others?" asked Venus, seeing her friends lying around her.

"They are asleep… till I awake them, when I will have finish you two. I won't kill you right now, of course, you wouldn't see the others suffer… Poison arrows!"

Black arrows emerged… Healer seized Venus and knocked her on the ground.

"Star sensitive inferno!"

Her attack missed its target.

"You can't defeat me with such a weak thing, my dear… Black bombs!"

Bombs began to fall around them like the last time… Healer threw herself on Venus… many bombs hit her… She collapsed.

"Only one left! So soon… what a pity!"

"How dared you…"

Venus was angry, she was looking at Healer, she was bleeding so much… she had to defeat Evil Yuna!

"Venus love and beauty shock!"

Her attack had never been that strong… but it missed Evil Yuna like Healer's.

"Poisonous arrows!"

Once again, black arrows flew. They were too many, Venus was quick, but one of them touched her and she felt poison running in her veins, she couldn't move. Evil Yuna made a wave of the hand and the two bodies flew on the other side of the dark room.

"So… do you like the show Yuna? Is it cool to see your friends suffering? If accepted me and you to unite… I could end this, you know?"

Yuna was standing in the darkness behind her malefic twin, she couldn't move.

"Stop it!"

"Only you can stop it, if you agree…"

"I'll never unite with you!"

"So let's continue… next round, Maker and Mercury…"

The two of them awoke… Evil Yuna explained her what she was up to, then she attacked them as she attacked Venus and Healer.

"Black bombs!"

This time, Mercury threw herself towards Maker, but she took the bombs… Maker caught her before she fell on the ground but the bombs continued to fall and he collapsed too.

"Too easy! Yuna, you want to see more?... it seems that you like it as you do nothing to save them! Let's pick someone else… let's see… why not princess Kakyuu… and… Saturn."

Kakyuu and Saturn awoke. The fight began… but Saturn and Kakyuu were strong enemies and Evil Yuna didn't beat them that easily… Saturn's Silent wall was strong… but at the end the two of them were poisoned and their bodies flew with the four others. Tears were falling from Yuna's eyes. Then it was Chibiusa and Pluto's turn… then Mars and Jupiter's… they didn't resist the attacks… Evil Yuna was too powerful. Neptune and Uranus fell together, each one trying to save the other one life. Then it was Tuxedo and Helios's turn…

"So… let's awake the one we love… this betrayer. Trust me he won't last long and he will suffer the most!"

"No… not him!"

"Him, him, him… I waited that for a long time…"

She awoke Helios and Tuxedo.

"Black stream!"

A stream of black energy headed for Tuxedo, but Helios took it instead.

"Stop it!" said Yuna, when Evil Yuna waved a hand to attack her beloved.

"You want me to stop… but will you accept me?"

"I… I will." Said Yuna.

"Well, it seems that you're reasonable after all."

"Yuna!" yelled Tuxedo.

"My love… I can't see you suffering!"

"So she is going to unite with me…"

"No Yuna! Don't do this… there is a hope, Sailor Moon can defeat her, if you and her work together you can defeat her!"

"Sailor Moon? You mean sleeping beauty, look behind you." Laughed Evil Yuna.

"I won't take the risk to awake her, I know she's strong, and her dear Fighter too."

She approached Yuna and took her hand. Her own body disappeared in hers. Yuna's eyes opened, but they were not hers anymore… Suddenly a flash of golden light invaded the room, Galaxia appeared, surrounded by the Animal mates. Sailor Moon suddenly awoke, as well did Fighter.

"Galaxia… the legendary strongest sailor soldier is here… we will be able to check if it is true…" said Evil Yuna.

"This is the truth… I am." Said Galaxia.

"You were once defeated, so you aren't"

"I wasn't using the good weapons, now I do. Sailor Moon, Fighter, Tuxedo, come to me."

Everyone gathered next Galaxia.

"You fear people when they are more than two? Is it because your afraid of the power of love?" asked Fighter.

"I'm not."

"We can't fight her… she united with Yuna! We would kill her!" said Tuxedo.

"I know… but what can we do?" asked Galaxia.

"I can save her." Said Sailor Moon.

"You won't, Yuna must save herself." Said Sailor Lead Crow.

"We did our enquiry… there is no second star seed, she lied, she's just a remember, a dark shadow, a spirit of the past." Said Sailor Aluminium Siren.

"So Yuna can defeat her, she has no real corpse… that's why all the attacks missed her. But now she is stronger." Said Sailor Iron Mouse.

Tuxedo approached Evil Yuna.

"Fight her! Yuna, you must live!" said Tuxedo.

"Yuna is dead, stupid man! You killed her. Why would she want to live without her love! Why would she live to see you flirting with the princess of the moon?" said Evil Yuna.

"I love her!"

"You're a liar!"

"No, I'm serious, I remember everything and I love her, not Usagi but her! I want to spend my life with her. The only thing I want in the world is her! If she dies, I will die too!" said Tuxedo.

"Endimion… I… love… you…" said a little voice.

"Shut up!" said Evil Yuna.

But Tuxedo was advancing toward her… and she knew it. She tried to attack him, but missed him several times, and her attacks weren't strong anymore, so he as hurt not seriously. He finished by touching her hand. A sudden sparkle flew in her eyes…

"Sailor Moon! That's your turn! You can make her coming back now!"

"OK! Fighter, I will need your help."

Sailor Moon hadn't her sceptre anymore, so her only weapon was the Silver crystal… and she felt she wouldn't make it work alone. Fighter took placed herself behind her and took her hands in his… She felt the power of his love running in her. She took her brooch in her hands

"Moon healing kiss!" yelled Sailor Moon.

She was transformed into Queen Serenity. A flash of light reached Evil Yuna and she divided in two… Yuna was back. But Evil Yuna, even if weaker, was still there.

"It's my turn!" said Galaxia.

"Legendary Light blow!"

She waved her sword and a golden light touched Evil Yuna.

"So you always think I'm not the stronger sailor soldier in the universe?" asked her with a smile.

Evil Yuna just disappeared into thin air. Tuxedo seized Yuna in his arms, everything was back to normal. The dark room had left place to the temple court.

Sailor Moon healed everyone with the Silver crystal.

"I was so scared… when she told me she would kill Mamoru… I just gave up, I'm weak." Said Yuna.

"You're not, you're in love, that's all, I would have done the same." Said Usagi, later, when everyone gathered around the table in Rei's home.

The atmosphere between everyone was somewhat changed. Seiya was proudly looking at his love, which he could seize in his arms so naturally now. Yaten and Minako had left them to talk together outside, as well as Taiki and Ami. The fight they led together had changed their relations.

Later in the evening, when Usagi's and Seiya were alone, sitting on the bank of the lake, she asked him.

"What are we going to do now?"

"Well… I think the three lights will come back on the stage."

"I was talking about us!" said Usagi.

"I know, I was teasing you. I don't know, the only think I can see is you. Just you, I don't care about the rest. Since I'm near you, I know everything will be all right, so I don't ask myself questions."

"So… you really love me?"

"I love you."

"I'm sorry, you must have suffered… when I was thinking about Mamoru.

"I told you, the only thing I care is you. I suffered, but now everything's all right. I kind of… always knew it."

"I love you, Seiya, my great soldier from another galaxy."

She smiled and kissed him.
