Chapter 15: My Power Unleashed
"Looks like I found you!" Haruka glared down at the tall grey monster, "I'm sorry, but I'll have to kill you and bring you back to show Michiru that I can control my magic."
The monster growled at her.
"While we are talking, drop what you have in your hand!"
Haruka began fighting the monster.
…
Usagi began looking around for Michiru. From the fourth level of the mansion all the way down to the basement. She came to the hidden room in the basement . She glanced at the dark stone walls as she came a crossed a blue wooden door. She moved her hair away from her eyes, she opened the door and walked in. Another door was in her way.
"Uranus!" She heard Neptune cry.
….
"World Shaking!" Uranus called.
The monster took the damage, but it wasn't enough to destroy it.
"Even though Mars and Neptune weakening it," Haruka thought, "and the princess transferring the magic to me. How can it still be so strong?!"
The monster growled louder.
"Uranus!" Neptune yelled as her and Usagi ran into the room.
"Stay back!" Uranus called, "I need to show you how great my power is, Michiru!"
"If Haruka can kill it, maybe Michiru would have one less thing to worry about . . ." Usagi paused. "Except . . . I have a bad feeling."
The monster attacked Haruka, she held onto her bleeding arm.
"How about this!" Haruka said as she began to focus on her powers.
"Please, stop!" Cried Michiru.
"THIS WILL BE YOUR END!" Hissed Haruka.
"Stop, Haruka!" Michiru yelled, "DON'T!"
"SPACE SWORD . . ." She began, "BLASTER!"
Haruka unleashed her power, causing it to destroy the monster with one blast from her sword . The bright light faded away. Haruka stood there emotionless, like she had no idea where she was or where her friends were. Usagi and Michiru stood there, they were both shocked shocked.
"It's gone." She says.
"It can't be . . ." Michiru began trembling.
"Amazing! You won, Haruka!" Usagi grabbed a hold of Michiru's arm, "Look, Michiru! Haruka's alive."
"Y-yeah." Michiru said looking at her partner, "I was so scared."
"Thank God! Since we are here, we can look for the mirror!" Usagi replied, letting go of Michiru's arms before she began looking around the room, "Let's see."
"I thought I was going to have a heart attack." Michiru smiled, "You didn't need to prove anything, Haruka. I'm sorry that I yelled at you."
"I am not seeing the mirror in here, I am gonna check in the other room." Usagi left to the side room to look for the mirror.
"You can lecture me later, if you feel up to it." Michiru joked, with a small smile.
"Y-yeah." Haruka said in a soft monotone voice.
…
"Maybe under the table?" Usagi asked, kneeling down to check.
"Ah, I am so relieved! Now they can make up. The enemy was killed and Haruka's okay!" Usagi paused, "Only good things are happening now. Looks like we'll be able to get out this time, and get ChibiUsa and Hotaru back!"
She stood back up as the lights began to flicker in the room.
"Is the power going out?" Asked Usagi.
The lights continued to flicker off and on.
"What the heck?" Paused Usagi, "This never . . ."
The last thing Usagi saw before the room turned black was the brown wooden table.
"Now the power's off." Usagi sighed as she began walking. "Where's the door?"
She tried to find her way through the wall of darkness. She ran into something. It made her jump and her to be a little on edge.
"What?" She felt the leather skin against her hand, "This kinda feels like . . ."
Soon a small light showed the face of the grey monster. Usagi began trembling, she couldn't let out a cry for help.
"Neptu . . . RUN!" She tried to yell.
The monster grabbed her.
"Ack!"
The monster moaned softly.
"Now, I've got you." He began, "Serenity."
Usagi braced herself for an attack. She closed her eyes feeling a shock of electricity enter her body. She opened an eye and looked towards the right, seeing a familiar man dressed in armor.
