Chapter 2
"Move aside." Mamoru said, kneeling down and picking Rei up. They quickly walked through the double doors and into the main room. Mamoru set her down in a chair and she slowly came to her senses. Everyone had worried expressions on they're faces.
"Mars has…" Haruka started to say. "...been wiped out…" she finished.
Rei moved her head to the side. "Yes." She said in a low voice. "It was only a short period of time too." She slowly turned her head to everyone. "Mars' skies… seemed dark I thought." Rei said, having a flashback.
The sky of Mars turned slowly from a happy sky to darkness and despair. Purple lightning strikes braked through the clouds. Rei ran out onto the porch and looked up at the sky with a worried face. She stopped at the end of the porch and leaned out for a minute at the wall and her eyes widened.
"That's…!" Rei gasped. She stepped back and a purple light slowly started to rise from below the wall. A lightning bolt hit an arch and Rei bent down to one side to cover her face. Rei turned her head and her eyes widened. Queen Beryl quickly came to the surface. Rei stood up. "Queen Beryl…" Rei said in a low voice to herself. "How can she appear so quickly?" Rei yelled then. Her eyes widened again. "What power!" Rei ran into the palace, looking back at Queen Beryl every time she knew where she was going.
"Mako-chan! We must leave here! Queen Beryl has…!" Rei yelled, running into the great hall where Makoto was looking over some maps. Her head instantly looked up at Rei. Rei stopped and looked at Makoto.
"How can the Princess of Mars turn her back to the Dark Kingdom?" Makoto exclaimed.
"But…!" Rei started to say but was interrupted. She turned around.
"Princess of Mars." Queen Beryl said, appearing out of thing air. "You, who stand on the zenith of Mars, if I had your soul… perhaps my hunger would be filled." Queen Beryl finished.
"Absolute Queen of the Underworld Hades," Makoto said in a strong voice, stepping forward. "Are you so haughty that you have forgotten the world's laws?" Makoto finished with anger in her voice.
"The world's laws?" Queen Beryl asked. "Ha! I am the law!" She said with determination.
"Oh… poor thing…" Makoto said, smirking. "You will be destroyed by your pride. You're a captive of you're hunger and nightmares. The least you can do is sleep!" Makoto then started to power up. "Super Supreme Thunder!" A large ball of green lightening was sent to Queen Beryl.
Rei smiled. "She did it!" She said with relief in her voice. Queen Beryl broke through the power and then walked forward a few more steps. Her eyes widened. "Why doesn't Jupiter's supreme magic work?" Rei yelled anger in her voice. Makoto looked a little confused.
"Farewell, Sailor Mars." Queen Beryl said with a smile on her face. Her arms opened and purple thunder bolts shot from around her to Rei. The ground shook. Makoto ran in front of the bolts and both of then fell to the ground.
"Rei-chan!" Makoto yelled, looking at Rei. "Let Mamoru, Keiko and the Shitennou know!" She threw her hand toward Rei and a green teleportation circle surrounded Rei. Rei looked up at Makoto.
"Jupiter!" Rei yelled, eyes widening.
"The final blow!" Queen Beryl said calmly. Rei started to float away when Queen Beryl threw her last blow at Makoto, who stood up and got hit by the purple lightening.
"Makoto!" Rei yelled again. "Mako-chan!" one more time before Makoto disappeared. Purple flames went everywhere.
Rei came out of her flashback and everyone was still looking at her. Rei looked down and tightened her grip on her tiara.
"She beat Jupiter's Super Supreme Thunder… " Mamoru said, looking at Rei with straight face. "That must be…" He looked up and turned his head to look at a picture of Makoto. "…the secret power that Mew mentioned." He straightened his stance and turned his head back to Rei.
"Rei, go to Mew's. Let her know immediately. And quickly heal your wounds." Rei stood up and turned to Mamoru.
"It pains me that I cannot fight with you." Rei turned to Keiko. "But… I will not lose to despair." She then turned to the other Senshi. "You people… are the surface world… and Mars'… final… However… the strongest hope." Rei finished, backed up and disappeared into a red star portal.
Mamoru turned to Jadeite, "Jadeite. We will immediately head for Mars."
"Yes." Jadeite said with a strong voice.
"You three also." Mamoru said to Kunzite, Zoisite and Nephrite.
"Yes." They all said.
"Mamoru" Usagi said. Mamoru stopped and looked at her. "I'm going too." She walked to him. "I want to fight with you, Mamo-chan. This might be the final battle."
"Usa. You will stay behind and protect the surface world." Mamoru said to Usagi in a calm voice. "Do not allow the Dark Kingdom to attack!" Mamoru said to Usagi again.
"Defeating Queen Beryl comes first!" Usagi argued. "As I am now, my power is greater than yours, my prince." She said confidently. They stared at each other for a minute with confidence.
Well, here was the second chapter. I'm going to say this now:
