Here be the epilogue. This was a fun story/series to write, but this is the last part of this series. Sad I know, but I need a break from Stargate SG-1 fics for a while, so I'm trying my hand at BSSM fics right now. Don't have any up so far, but hey, I'm working on them.

Enough of my rambling though. Go enjoy the epilogue.

The real owners refuse to give the rights to me, so I'm thinking of making a Monopoly version of buying the rights...but until then, not mine.


Several months after the battle with Ja'aku...

Sam sat at the table in the massive ballroom, bored out of her mind. Winter had arrived and she was sitting in a huge ballroom for a Winter Solstice party being held by Wolfmoon Industries. No one outside of the Senshi and Jack knew that Kael was dead. It had been decided that they would keep his company open so the millions of workers would not lose their jobs. Sam and the three eldest of the Outer Senshi ran the company with input from Usagi. They had tried to get the blonde to take the company, but she had refused, saying she'd rather play the games than make them.

Sam sighed and watched as the other Senshi danced around the floor. Haruka and Michiru were flawless, as were Usagi and Mamoru, which was surprising as Usagi was generally a klutz. Makoto and Ami were dancing together as well, the tall brown haired girl in one of Haruka's dark blue tuxedos. Ami wore a light blue dress, embroidered flowers in the silk.

Haruka wore black dress pants, black boots, a white shirt, a thick black cloth belt, and a dark blue tail coat trimmed in gold with gold buttons. A white-laced ascot was around her neck held in place by a silver clasp. Michiru was clad in a beautiful light blue-green strapless gown. She had the sides of her hair pulled back and braided to keep them out of her face. Long silver gloves covered Michiru's arms

Usagi wore a beautiful white gown, moons and stars embroidered into the silk with silver. Mamoru wore a black tuxedo. Setsuna wore a dark red gown that brought out her garnet eyes. She was currently dancing with Jack, who wore his full dress uniform, at Setsuna's insistence. SG-1 was there as well. Teal'c wore a nice black suit and was dancing with Rei who wore a fire red dress. Cameron was in his dress uniform as well, having been ordered by Jack once the General knew that the team was coming, dancing with Carolyn Lam. Daniel was in a tuxedo dancing with Vala who wore a black dress and long gloves.

Yaten was guiding Hailey around the floor while Minako was holding Taiki prisoner on the dance floor. Seiya had quickly volunteered to dance with Hotaru when he found out Minako had no date.

"You all right?" Luna asked from under the table. She and Artemisu had snuck in and were at the corner table with Sam.

"Yeah. I'll be fine," Sam answered absently.

"Are you sure?" Artemisu asked in concern.

Sam gave them a forced smile. "I'm fine. Honest." Her gaze fell to the table. She wore a dark midnight blue strapless dress, her blonde hair crimped. Dark midnight blue gloves covered her arms an inch past her elbow. A silver necklace of three intersecting crescent moons with a phoenix in the foreground glittered in the light. She closed her eyes and waited for the night to end. She didn't even hear the music stop.

Everyone looked over at the entrance to the ballroom as a figure walked in. He wore soft, black leather boots, baggy black dress pants, and a white silk shirt with large sleeves under a dark midnight blue crushed velvet tunic. A black leather belt was buckled around his waist and black leather bracers covered his forearms, a wolf etched in silver into the leather on his left and the image of a phoenix was etched into the leather with silver on the right bracer. A silver clasp held the collar of the silk shirt in place and a silver chain held the black velvet cloak around his shoulders. Several silver hoop earrings hung in both of his ears, a few more in his left ear than his right.

Everyone watched as the man made his way across the dance floor, brushing past fawning girls. He halted in front of Sam who finally realized that the music had come to a stop. She looked up and her mouth fell open as she stared into silver-blue eyes. The man held out a hand, which had a brown leather glove on it.

Sam felt herself accept his hand and felt her feet follow him onto the dance floor. The lights dimmed down and the music started up in a slow waltz. Sam placed her hands on his shoulder and in his hand while he held her free hand and placed his hand on her waist. The pair began to glide across the floor, rivaling the grace of Haruka and Michiru.

"It's…you…" Sam finally said, finding her voice.

Kael smiled warmly. "I told them I couldn't stay. My heart and soul is still on Earth," he said.

"And they let you leave?" Sam asked, knowing that he was referring to the Ascended beings.

He nodded. "I told them it may have looked like I was ready, but in reality, I wasn't. I told them I couldn't stay because I knew I'd interfere. They were impressed with my honesty and selflessness and gave me one rule free request. I used it to come back here," he explained. As they continued waltzing across the floor, the other Senshi and their partners joined in.

Kael stopped and took Sam's arm. He guided her out to an enclosed balcony. "I'm sorry I made you wait so long," he said.

She held her hand on his lips. "I would wait forever just to spend one moment with you," she whispered.

He held her face and leaned in. She wrapped her arms around him and they kissed, tentatively at first but it slowly grew deeper. The snow clouds outside drifted apart, revealing a full moon.

A moonbeam shone down, illuminating the pair in their kiss. An image of Queen Serenity shimmered on the moon, leaving those who were staring at the moon that night stunned and wondering what was going on.

Kael looked into Sam's eyes. "Ashiteru yo kohitori-chan."

"Ashiteru yo shinsetsu-okami," she returned.

She leaned up and kissed him again, both unaware that Luna and Artemisu were watching them, smiles on their faces. Shadow was also watching them. He smiled, knowing that his time in the world had come to an end. He had come only to guide Kael to his soulmate and help the Guardian learn to use his powers. The silver wolf rose to his feet and trotted away, walking up a moonbeam. He turned into a man similar looking to Kael and stood next to Queen Serenity. The pair kissed and faded away, leaving Sam and Kael kissing under the moon.
