Sailor Nemesis
Chapter 18
Samantha was running she loved the wind, but the wind was one thing she wasn't: free. She could never be free from her destiny, now she fully understood how Haruka felt all the time. Haruka had accepted her fate, could she too? Could she accept her fate, she wasn't sure she could. Her fate of loneliness, to continue to fight, never to have love, but to know it, she couldn't break free of her destiny. She shook her head and stopped running.
She looked around thinking, where was she? She was in a park, but she looked behind her, there was a building, it had started to rain, just like that day so long ago, she shook her head it wasn't she didn't love the rain oh how she did, but she wasn't wearing her own clothes she had borrowed the one she was wearing from one of her friends.
She went inside of the building, it was an indoor playground, and with a huge window that could see outside onto the little playground for this playground in here was an adult size one and she guessed it was for the parents who watched their kids play outside. She went straight to a swing, before she sat down though she reached into her pocket and pulled out a star shaped locket. It felt like an eternity had passed since she had looked at it or opened it and heard it's melody, of course she didn't realize either how long she sat there just looking at it before she opened it.
When she opened it she saw a crescent moon slowly going around in a circle. This star locket calmed her; nothing could wipe away her emotions as it could. Take away all of her sadness, guilt, and fear wiped away, just disappeared from her.
She sat there for hours just listening to it, she didn't even notice someone was in the doorway, watching and listening to her and the locket. This person finally was right in front of her, she stilled but still didn't look up, only when the person kneeled down in front of her and put a hand which covered the locket and closed it did only then did she look at the person.
That one action of closing the locket brought her out of the trance and everything returned all of her fears everything, emotions she sighed. She looked into his face and realized it was Mamoru. She looked at him her eyes asking questions, he said, "I head it, the locket, did you take it away from Bunny?"
Her face grew mad with rage and she suddenly stood up it made him back away as she herself walked away from him. She finally said, "You fool, did your precious lover ever tell you she got it from me in the first place? I guess by the look on your face the answer is no she didn't. When I was born I got two identical star lockets, like this one here. I was told a legend that went with the famous lockets. It goes when the maiden gives it to her lover, her true love, the man she wants to spend eternity with. They would be together forever and love each forever too. I knew both me and sister would never find someone like that so I gave her the other one."
"But wait, she found me we even had a child together, Rini."
She snorted, "Oh yes you had Rini, a child who can never use the power of the Silver Imperial Crystal and will always be a weak, a child who is in nether world, the human or the Silver Millennium, the Moon Kingdom, not fully anyway."
Mamoru was confused, "But she can use the power of the Crystal, she turned into a Sailor Scout."
She shook her head, "Yes, but how old is she? How long did it take for her to do just that? She even succumbed to the enemies' power and was working for them, fighting her own mother and her soon to be comrades and friends. She is a half breed Mamoru get that through your head, she will never be as strong as we are, we who have the pure blood of the Silver Millennium and its full powers. She is caught between both worlds but at least she is more power then you, you who just have human blood in your veins even if it is royalty blood."
Oh she was mad he could tell, for pointing that out to him she had to be so pissed at him. He guessed she was still angry at him because of what happened in the past. She had found someone to give the locket to: him, but he turned on her like everyone else. She grew calmer when she opened the locket, she started talking softly he could barely hear her, "I almost gave it to him I was so close too, I told myself I would give it to him after I had my revenge on my little sister and her lover. But everything went wrong, the Dark Kingdom attacked I can't even remember what he looks like anymore, I don't think I remember much of anything about him now. Who was he?"
Mamoru came behind her and hugged her. His arms wrapped around her hips. She told him, "Stop you fool, let go of me, you aren't mine, you belong to my sister, god why wouldn't you let go of me?" She turned around, but he still kept his arms around her, she said a little louder then in a soft voice, "Stop you belong to her, I have someone damnit! Why does everyone around me have to betray me and keep on betraying me?!" she finally pushed him away and got out of his arms.
That was when they finally noticed someone at the door, well two people actually. Mamoru looked at Bunny and James and said, "Bunny…" but he didn't get to finish because Sam was on the floor, down on her knees with her arms on her head again.
She was moaning just like before, "Oh no, god no stop I sealed you away for a reason NOOO!" that was when strong arms held her as her memories burst the door she had sealed away thousands of years before. The person who the arms belong to seem to say well she thought they said something she wasn't sure because her head felt like it was about to explode. "Its okay baby I am here. I will always be by you side Serenity, then, now, and forever."
