Solar Guardians Arc Four, Dream and Palace
Sighing deeply Jack fell back against his pillows making his bed poof and deflate with his weight. He smiled up at the ceiling as he reflected on his life thus far. It's been rather happy. Sure he had some issues with his father but now it didn't really matter, he still had a great relationship with his sister. Becoming a Solar Guardian was probably the best thing that happened to him.
"Well, maybe second best." He smirked thinking of a certain brunette boy with a fondness for tinkering.
They had finally achieved their destiny. They defeated Gothel and saved the world, now all that was left for them was to live out their human lives and dreams then ascend to the Sun and protect the Earth and the rest of the solar system. They fought a few negative entities born of people's pain and busted some crime since then. It's been roughly four years, Eugene has nearly finished studying pre law and is now getting ready to attend the police academy while everyone else was finishing up high school and finding out their next step. Jack wasn't sure what was next for him, all he knew was that he would be with Hiccup. Closing his eyes he smiled as he let his thoughts drift to his future. The future he knew was coming. He was standing on a balcony looking down on Earth, Hiccup content and peaceful in his arms.
Most likely Queen Solstice's daughter would come seeking out her favorite uncles and they would play and drive King Flynn nuts. Their lives would be happy, they would be happy. Everything would be perfect.
Or at least it should have been
"Lunar Prince."
The voice was so low and menacing it sent a chill down Jack's spine. Wide eyes stared as the Earth was swallowed by complete darkness. Terrified he held tighter to Hiccup to assure himself, but Hiccup wasn't there.
"Hiccup!" he cried looking every direction for his love but what he found was far worse.
The Solar Palace, which Princess Solstice had repaired with the Golden Solar Crystal, was now falling apart.
And that was not the worst of it.
"NO!" he howled watching as his family and friends dropped dead one after the other. "Hiccup! Sister's! Princess Solstice! No how could this happen!"
Looking away from the horrible scene he looked up only to find the moon. But it wasn't glowing it's natural silver white light like he knows it to. It was an ominous dark gold that radiated fear.
"What is going on?" he gasped falling to his knees. "I don't understand. It wasn't supposed to be like this."
"The Royal line of the Moon will disappear." that same voice hissed
"You will be the last Prince Moon."
"NO!" he cried sitting up in his bed.
He panted gripping the sheets as he tried to calm his heart.
"Was that a dream?" he gasped eyes wide, sweat trickling down his face. "It felt more like a warning… but no it can't be. That can't happen. Not now, not when we finally achieved our destinies. Please, don't let this be anymore than a dream."
He stayed up most of the night replaying the nightmare over and over again until he felt sick. Unaware that events were being sent in motion. Or of the battle that was to come.
Across town Merida was not faring well in the dream world either.
"Thes es an enemy." she gasped staring up at the moon and its golden glow. "Ah see an evil aura aroond th' moon. Ah have ta teel th' others."
The next morning Merida called everyone and told them they needed to talk about what she saw. Everyone showed except Mavis, Johnny and Hiro. They all had school stuff, but Kristoff promised to fill them in later.
"What do you mean you saw an evil aura around the moon?" Kristoff asked sipping at his black coffee.
"Ah mean Ah saw th' moon's aura an' it was evil. Whit part ay 'at es confusing?" Merida growled glaring at Anna's boyfriend.
"We get that Merida." Hiccup jumped in so as to defuse the rising tension. "But how, I mean I didn't even know the moon had an aura."
"Aw heavenly bodies dae." Merida shrugged. "An' th' moon's was not good."
"So what do you think it means?" Rapunzel asked feeding Pascal an apple slice.
"It's obvious isn't it?" Elsa sighed placing her hand in her palm. "We have a new enemy. And after everything's been quiet for the past couple of years."
"You really think so?" Rapunzel gaped.
"If so we better be ready." Eugene nodded. "Do we have any idea what this enemy is?"
"None." Merida sighed. "Whit aboot ye, Pascal? Dae ye have an idea?"
"None, sorry." The small chameleon shook his head.
"Jack, do you?" Hiccup asked only to see the boy wasn't paying attention. He was glaring at his cup of hot coco like it was gonna attack. "Jack!"
"Ah, yeah I'm here, what?" Jack yelled jumping in his seat.
"Are you even listening to what's going on?" Kristoff sighed.
"Sorry, I was thinking about something else." He murmured.
"Somethin' more important 'an a new enemey?" Merida hissed.
"Actually," he started hesitating only because he didn't want to believe it was true. "It was about a dream I had last night."
"A dream?" Hiccup wondered holding Toothless closer.
"In it the Earth was covered in darkness, the Solar Palace was destroyed and you all were… it was horrible… but the worst part was the moon. It glowed an erie gold."
"Loch Ah saw last night." Merida gasped.
Jack only nodded.
"Um guys." Anna gulped looking around. "Why is everyone knocked out?"
"What?" they all cried looking around.
Just as Anna had pointed out everyone in the cafe was unconscious. Most were slumped against walls or tables but other were on top of one another or sprawled out on the floor.
"What is this?" Elsa asked leaning closer to Merida. "Some kind of gas?"
"AAAHH!"
"Jack!" Hiccup cried as his boyfriend gave a agonized scream. "What's wrong?!"
Jack couldn't answer. The pain in his head was too much. He clutched it, gritting his teeth against the pain then stood with a force so great he knocked his chair over. It felt like someone was trying to force their way into his mind.
"No." He gritted. "Stay out, you can't come in."
"Jack, talk to me." Hiccup begged grabbing Jack's shoulders. "What's wrong?"
"No stay back." Jack urged backing away from everyone.
He gave another scream of pain before falling silent. He dropped his hand and head so his bangs covered his eyes and just stood there.
"Big brother?" Anna asked taking a step forward.
"No, stay away from 'im!" Merida urged pulling her back. "'Is aura esn't right. It's not Jack."
"How perceptive." It was Jack's lips that moved but it wasn't his voice. This voice was liquid ice, cold and unnerving.
"Hoo are ye?!" Merida demanded.
"Get out of Jack!" Hiccup growled.
"Jack?" the voice asked confused before it used Jack's lips to smile. "Oh, you mean the Moon Prince."
"How…" Rapunzel gulped. "How do you know about that?"
Giving a chilling chuckle not-Jack finally looked up revealing Amber gold eyes.
"I am Pitch Black, King of the dark half of the moon and rightful ruler of the Lunar Kingdom."
"King of the dark half of the moon?" Eugene wondered.
"What do you want?" Kristoff demanded stepping in front of Anna.
"What I want is what is mine." Pitch smiled. "I want the Moon kingdom and the Earth."
"The Moon kingdom is my brothers by birth right." Elsa exclaimed. "He is the only son and heir of Prince North. The kingdom is his."
"Oh I'm aware." Pitch nodded. "But it won't be for long."
"What do you mean?" Hiccup snarled.
"You have one day to bring me the Moon Prince or I'll will destroy this earth."
"We won't let you do that." Anna told him glaring daggers.
"You won't be able to stop me." He chuckled. "You may have defeated me when that Gothel woman was controlling my power, but now I am truly awakened and all powerful. You don't stand a chance Solar Guardians."
"Controlled by Gothel?" Rapunzel wondered.
"You were the black sand that corrupted us and covered the Earth!" Eugene stated suddenly realizing what they were dealing with.
"Indeed." Pitch nodded.
"We bested ye once baefur, we'll dae it again." Merida assured.
"We won't give you Jack!" Hiccup swore as Toothless hissed in agreement.
"We shall see." Pitch chuckled. "Bring the Moon Prince to the park by midnight tomorrow or I will eradicate this world. Until then…"
He trailed off chuckling softly as the blue began to leak through the gold in his eyes.
"Jack!" Hiccup called rushing forward to catch the falling boy.
"Hiccup." Jack rasped.
"I got you don't worry." Hiccup assured holding Jack close.
All around them people were waking up acting as if nothing happened.
"What was that?" Elsa demanded.
"An ancient enemy of the Moon Kingdom." Jack informed slumping into the nearest chair.
"How dae ye know 'at?" Merida asked.
"I saw glimpses of his past while he was possessing me." He said looking them each in the eyes. "He wasn't lying about his power. He's stronger than anything we've ever faced."
"So what do we do?" Anna asked now concerned.
"Isn't it obvious." Rapunzel said getting everyone attention. She had a look of pure determination, shoulders back, chin high, eyes blazing. "We fight."
They went about their normal lives going through lessons and their jobs. All the while their minds were on midnight and what they would face. Jack most of all.
He only saw fragments of the past Lunar Kingdom through Pitch's mind but what he saw terrified him. Was this something that he and his friends could beat? He was nothing like Gothel. Defeating her was simple once Jack got a hold of the Crescent Heart and they saved Prince Flynn and Princess Solstice. But Pitch's power didn't come from a planet heart. His power just is, and it was formidable. Was the Golden Solar Crystal enough? Was Rapunzel capable of that kind of power yet? She wasn't yet anywhere near strong enough to become the Solar Queen, so how could she hope to defeat Pitch who had corrupted her before. She was able to overcome it thanks to the love she and Eugene shared. If that was the case then, then it should be the case now.
Midnight was fast approaching, as they waited for Pitch in the park everyone became increasingly tense.
"I can't believe after all this time we have to fight another enemy." Mavis sighed running her finger over the gem in her wrist buckle.
"We've all been pretty lax, I hope we're up for this." Jonny said next to her.
"This isn't anything we can't handle." Kristoff assured them.
"Hey, big brother Jack, you okay?" Hiro asked noticing the calculating look in Jack's eyes.
Jack smiled and nodded at him before turning to Eugene.
"Hey," he called to the former Prince.
"What is it?" Eugene asked.
"No matter what, don't leave Rapunzel's side."
Eugene only smiled as he wrapped his arm around said blonde.
"As if that were ever an option."
"Um," Rapunzel murmured getting a strained look. "As much as I appreciate both of you looking out for me, I can take care of myself you know."
"That's not what I'm getting at." Jack shook his head. "Last time we fought him you both overcame his power with your love. If we're gonna have any chance of defeating him it's gonna be you two."
"Jack?" Hiccup pondered staring worriedly at the Moon Prince.
"It's just a feeling." He answered grasping Hiccup's hand tightly. "Pitch's power is unreal. I just think their love is the only thing that can beat it."
"Their love isn't the only one that has lasted through the centuries you know." The strategist exclaimed tightening his hold on Jack's hand making him look into his eyes. "You and I have been in love since our past life. If their love can beat him, then so can ours."
"Hiccup." Jack breathed feeling ridiculous for not thinking about that.
"Aye, ours ta." Merida smirked wrapping her arms around Elsa shoulder as said girl only smiled brightly.
"And ours." Anna cheered wrapping Kristoff's arms around her waist. "Our love will kick his butt."
"Yeah ours too." Jonny hooted as he pressed his cheek to Mavis's. "He doesn't stand a chance against our Zing."
"Uck." Hiro gagged turning from all the couples. "You guys are gross."
"You'll understand when your older." Hiccup chuckled.
"As if." Hiro scoffed.
Everyone laughed as Hiro pouted bringing smiles to all their faces.
"You're right." Jack chuckled. "Our love, not just our romantic, but also our familial will destroy this enemy."
"Absolutely." Hiccup agreed resting his brow on Jack's. "Don't ever forget it."
"Everyone, it's a minute till midnight." Pascal warned sombering the mood. "I think it's best if you transform."
"There will be none of that." a voice echoed throughout the park.
"Hoo's there?" Merida called.
A chuckle was their only answer as the world around them began to blacken and become negative.
"What's going on?" Anna cried.
"Everyone stay together." Eugene warned.
"Hey over there." Mavis exclaimed looking toward the thickest of the shadows.
"I don't see anything." Hiccup said but looking down at Toothless he saw how agitated the little feline was.
"No, she's right." Merida gritted. "There are three evil auras headin' our way."
"My, you two are quite perceptive." A a smooth condescending voice chuckled.
"Of course." Jonny smirked. "As the guardian of death, Mavis is the master of shadows."
"And with her psychic powers, Merida can see any evil." Anna cheered.
"Anna." Elsa sighed.
"Doesn't matter either way." another voice growled.
"Master Pitch sent us to collect the Moon Prince. Enough of this chit chat. Let's get on with it." a third grunted.
"Who are you?" Rapunzel demanded.
Finally the shadows took shape revealing three men dressed in black robes.
"We are master Pitch's nightmares." The shorter brunette said a dark gleam in his green eyes. "I am Hans, the embodiment of your fear of deceit."
"Ah aam Mor'du, th' embodiment ay yer fear ay pride." The tallest of them, with dark hair and one dead eye growled.
"I am Drago, the embodiment of your fear of weakness."
"We are here to take the Prince to our master." Hans informed.
"Why hasn't Pitch come himself." Eugene demanded.
"That is none of your business." Drago snarled. "Now hand over the Prince."
"Not a chance." Hiccup snarled back pushing Jack behind him then lifting his gem above his head. "MERCURY ASTRAL POWER, ARMOR UP!"
But nothing happened.
"What's going on?" Hiccup cried. "My Planet heart has no power."
"WHAT?!" everyone cried looking at their gems.
It was true they had lost their shine.
"You are all trapped in our nightmare realm, you won't be able to transform. And the longer you stay here the longer you'll be susceptible to its power."
"Everyone stay close." Eugene called throwing his hand up in the air.
Even without being in his Rider garb he could summon a simple barrier, empowering it with the Terra Heart and keeping the space within pure of all negative energies.
"Good thinking." Hiccup smirked.
"Still doesn't help us get out of here though." Kristoff gritted.
"Indeed." Hans chuckled. "That barrier will only last for so long and then you'll be overcome by your worst nightmares."
"The only way out of here is to hand over the Prince." Drago insisted.
"Sae dorn't bae difficult. Jist 'and 'im over." Mor'du huffed.
"Dammit." Jack gritted screwing his eyes tightly shut with concentration as he worked his mind for an answer.
"This is all your fault, Moon."
Eyes flying open, Jack stared in shock as his mother, the former Sailor Venus, appeared before him an angry scowl on her face.
"Mother?" he gasped.
"You put our princess in danger. This had nothing to do with her. This is all the Lunar Kingdom's problem. But you just couldn't handle it yourself, this is all your fault."
"No, mother I never-"
"Jack snap out it!" Hiccup cried shaking Jack's shoulders. "Whatever your seeing isn't real."
Blinking a couple of times the vision of his mother faded away, but her words still echoed in his ears.
"Rapunzel try the crystal." Hiccup ordered said blonde. "It's power is stronger than anything, it should be able to undo all this."
"But at her current state she can't use the full power of the crystal." Pascal shook his head from her shoulder.
"She did it before." Hiro reminded panicked.
"That was because she had the aid of all your planet hearts." The chameleon informed.
"So we give her our power again." Elsa stated matter of factly.
"That won't be strong enough for this enemy." Jack warned.
"He's right." they all turned to Rapunzel who was clutching her sun broach. "Planet Heart power isn't enough to defeat this enemy. There is only one thing that can defeat nightmares and fear and that's dreams and hope. All of you focus on your hopes and dreams and lend their energy to the crystal."
Closing their eyes and bowing their heads.
"My dream," Rapunzel started. "Is to be with Eugene and my friends forever, spending my days painting."
"My dream," Eugene. "Is to become a detective and help people and stay with Rapunzel for as long as possible."
"To be with Kristoff." Anna.
"To be with Anna and to open my own ice sculpting business." Kristoff.
"To be together forever and be the best managers ever at Hotel Transylvania." Jonny and Mavis.
"To keep being a super hero." Hiro.
"Ta live in th' woods, sae Ah may spend mah days ridin' an' shootin' an' ta bae with Elsa." Merida.
"My dream is to be a Olympic figure skater and live in the forest on the off seasons with Merida." Elsa said with a small smile.
"I want to travel the world and discover new things before taking on Gobber's job at the highschool." Hiccup smiled looking to Jack.
"I want to go where Hiccup goes and maybe become a kindergarten teacher." Jack sighed. "But above all-"
"WE WANT TO BE FREE AND HAPPY!"
The crystal began to glow a bright gold chasing away the shadows and filling them with power.
"What's happening!?" Hans gaped.
"Stop them!" Drago raored.
But it was to late.
"Now!" Rapunzel called.
"MARS DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"MERCURY DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"VENUS DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"JUPITER DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"MOON DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"URANUS DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"PLUTO DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"SATURN DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"NEPTUNE DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"SUN COSMIC DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"MAKE/AMOR UP!"
Bright pillars of light engulfed the Solar Guardians forcing the enemy to look away. As they were transforming, Eugene took this chance to place his visor glasses on switching out his street clothes for his Rider spandex uniform. Soon enough the lights dimmed away revealing a new surprise for them all. With the new transformation came new uniforms. For the girls the bows on at the small of their backs got longer creating two tails, while their skirts started out white and slowly became their original color, shade by shade the hems of the skirts ending in points. And their broaches no longer circular gems but rather seven pointed stars. For the boys they now had capes clasped to their shoulders and the first button on their shirts was now in the shape of a seven pointed star like the girls broach plus there were now belts that criss crossed around their waist rather than one. Lastly their Planet Hearts where now in the same star shape as the buttons and brooches. But most changed was Sailor Sun. Her uniform looked like the other girls but her her skirt started out in pink, then to purple then to gold, and a pair of gold wings lay folded upon her back.
"Sailor Sun." Rider gasped.
"Protected by Mars, the planet ay bravery, guardian of war, Ah aam Sailor Mars."
"Protected by Mercury, the planet of intelligence, guardian of wisdom, I am Officer Mercury."
"Protected by Venus, the planet of beauty, guardian of love, I am Sailor Venus."
"Protected by Jupiter, the planet of freedom, guardian of storms, I am Sailor Jupiter."
"Protected by the Moon, the planet of fun, guardian of the night, I am Officer Moon."
"Protected by Uranus, the outer planet of wind, guardian of the heavens, I am Officer Uranus."
"Protected by Pluto, the outer planet of death, guardian of the underworld, I am Sailor Pluto."
"Protected by Saturn, the outer planet of time, guardian of space-time, I am Officer Saturn."
"Protected by Neptune, the outer planet of the sea, guardian of the deep seas, I am Officer Neptune."
"And I am Dream Sailor Sun, protected by the Sun, star of dreams, guardian of light. And in the name of the planets, we will punish you."
"Well that took more time than was needed." Hans ticked giving them a board look.
"Whoa, we got new uniforms." Saturn cheered.
"It's because we're using a different kind of power, something other than the Planet Hearts." Jack informed. "Sailor Sun is sharing a portion of the Golden Solar Crystal's power with us creating dream power. In turn we gave our dream energy to the crystal which turned Sailor Sun into Dream Sailor Sun."
"So that means, we have new powers." Hiccup summarized.
"Enough of this." Drago snarled holding out his hands. "Nightmare beasts, retrieve the Moon Prince."
Taking his lead the other two held out their hands and summoned their own monsters.
Dragons, horses and bears oh my.
No literally summoned a horde of all three creatures.
"Now go." Hans ordered. "Get the Prince."
"We already told you that's not happening." Officer Saturn huffed holding his hand out in front of him. "My talisman, come to me, Saturn's Guardian Baymax." with a pop a big marshmellow looking robot appeared allowing Saturn to climb it's back. "SATURN, SPACIAL TIME SPHERE, GO!"
Not understanding what was going on they watched as a bubble appeared between them and their enemy and as it grew incredibly to swallow them all. Now they were in a place much like the nightmare realm only the air was pure and clean. Giving them strength rather than taking it.
"Now your trapped in my time sphere." Saturn smirked. "In this place anything you do will have no effect on the real world. And as long as my friends are in here you won't be able to hurt them, I'll be able to turn back time on their wounds to before they had them. There is no way for you to win."
"You little brat." Drago snarled.
"Now, take care of them." Saturn called to the others.
"On it." Eugene nodded rushing into the horde of nightmare monsters and taking them out with the force behind his speed.
They all rushed into the fray ready to try out their new powers. Mars was the first to act, holding her hands in the air so her fingertips touched she spread them into a wide circle leaving behind blue fire balls as she went until her hands met again at the bottom.
"MARS, WIL-O-FIRE MANIFEST!"
The little fire balls shot forward taking out every nightmare they came in contact with.
Above them Hiccup was soaring with Toothless hopping to get a better impact from up high.
"MERCURY, ALPHA WAVES!" upon his command, Toothless wiggled the fins on the side of his face creating lethal vibrations that undid the creatures structure turning them into piles of sand.
"VENUS, HEARTFELT LOVE SONG!" Venus called cooing out a soothing melody that distracted a large number of the monsters making them easy prey for her sister.
"JUPITER, THUNDERING HAIL STORM!" she cried holding her hands up them throwing them down to bring with them a storm of hail chunks the size of softballs obliterating the nightmares.
"PLUTO, RESTLESS SOULS!" Pluto called swinging her death scythe releasing her own horde of nightmarish spirits that wreaked havoc on her enemies.
"Everyone step back." Neptune called.
"We'll get them all in one move, then Moon can destroy them." Uranus cheered.
Heeding their words everyone got out of the way as the boys stood back holding out their hands toward the enemy.
"NEPTUNE/URANUS, DIAMOND PRISM CAPTURE!"
In one fell swoop they managed to capture all the nightmare creatures in a giant diamond prison then jumped out of the way as Moon came rushing forward twirling his Crescent Crook.
"MOON, ENDLESS SNOWBALL FIGHT!" as silly as the attack may sound it definitely had a lethal kick. It shattered the diamond and the creatures inside with it. Now all that was left were the three nightmares of Pitch. "Now Dream Sailor Sun, finish them."
"Right." she nodded holding up her hands. "I call upon the dreams of my fellow Guardians. Lend me your power, and reveal to me the Dream Rod."
A bright gold light shown between her hands before she grabbed it revealing a six foot long staff with a golden sun at the top, surrounded by ten smaller spheres that glowed with power. Just under the sun were another pair of angel wings that spread wide with the ones on Dream Sailor Sun's back.
"It doesn't matter if you kill us." Hans called out to her determined. "No matter what Pitch will get his hands on the prince and rule over the Moon and Earth."
"I won't let that happen." Dream Sailor Sun assured twirling her new staff around before pointing it at him and the others. "SUN GOLDEN DREAM CATCHER!"
Braids of golden light shot forward piercing the three nightmares where they stood rendering them to their true forms, nothing but black sand.
The threat now gone, Officer Saturn let down the time sphere and slumped against Baymax, exhausted.
"Oh man, that takes a lot out of me." he huffed.
"You okay?" Mercury asked kneeling next to him.
"Nothing some Rockstar can't fix." Saturn smirked.
"Jeez, you're gonna die of a heart attack and your not even twenty." Mercury sighed.
"Now we're back tae square one." Mars groaned glaring at the piles of sand. "We steel dorn't know where Pitch es."
"So we keep looking." Rider told her now back at Sun's side. "We'll find him."
"I hope so." Moon sighed.
"Moon Prince."
Groaning, Moon clutched his head.
"Moon, what's wrong?" Mercury choked rushing to his side. "Is it Pitch? What do you want us to do?"
"I congratulate you on destroying my nightmares. Your stronger than I thought. And yet I still need you to come to me. I can sense that you want this as well. So I will tell you where you can find me. Come to the Moon, I am waiting for you in my Kingdom. Come soon, the time of the Dark Moon is at hand. I'll be waiting."
The pressure now gone from his mind Moon took a few deep calming breaths before looking up and facing everyone.
"He wants me to come to him." he told them solemnly. "He told me where he is."
"'En where es 'e?" Mars demanded.
Hardening his gaze he turned it to the sky and the waning moon.
"He's in the Lunar Kingdom." he informed. "He's on the moon."
Within just a few seconds they had managed to Solar Teleport to the Lunar Kingdom and were faced with it's ruins- Pascal was asked to stay behind and monitor any anomalies that may be Pitch attacking Earth. They weren't surprised. They assumed after Gothel had her way it would look something like this. Still it was a bit disheartening for Officer Moon and Sailor Jupiter to see it this way.
"It looks like it would have once been beautiful." Jupiter sighed.
"Yeah." Moon agreed.
"Sae where dae we start?" Mars asked looking around. "'E's not 'ere sae wher dae we go."
"Not sure." Officer Moon admitted before noticing that his Crescent Heart was glowing. "What the-"
"Hey look over there." Venus exclaimed pointing off in the distance.
Looking that way they saw a speck of brilliant light blinking at them.
"What do you think it is?" Sailor Jupiter asked.
"I don't know." Moon shook his head. "But the Crescent Heart is reacting to it, so might as well check it out."
Silently they all agreed and followed him toward the light further into the ruins of the Crescent Palace until they reached what used to be the Heart of the Palace, a room meant for meditation and vision quests. It was there in the center of the room where they found the source of the glow. A lone shard of glass lay there resonating with the Crescent Heart to the point where Moon's wrist was vibrating.
"What is it?" Neptune wondered.
"I don't know." Pluto answered.
"Super shiny, that's all I can tell ya." Uranus said attempting to lighten the mood.
Kneeling to get a better look, Moon went to pick it up but paused when his hand was inches away.
"This…" he gasped. "This is a piece of the Crescent Heart."
"What?" everyone cried.
"But that can't be." Dream Sailor Sun exclaimed. "The Crescent Heart is still fully intact on your wrist. Look at it."
"I know." Moon assured gingerly picking up the shard. "But I also know this power the shards giving off. It's a fragment of my Planet Heart."
"Let me see that." Saturn said looking closer as Moon held it out. "Whoa this thing is radiating time energy."
"Time energy?" Rider asked confused. "You mean it's not from this time?"
"No." Saturn assured.
"Can you tell when it's from?" Mercury asked eyeing the shard thoughtfully.
"Yeah, give me a sec." holding out his hand so it was hovering over the shard, Saturn closed his eyes in concentration. A moment later they opened wide. "Holly crap."
"What?" Moon demanded urgently.
"I think this came from the past, from the time when Prince North was alive."
"Prince North, you mean our father?" Jupiter gasped.
"Yeah." he nodded.
"Can you use this to take us back there?" Moon asked eyes narrowed determined.
"Moon, no." Saturn hissed backing away. "You know it's forbidden. Time travel is a one way ticket to disaster."
"Please." Moon pleaded. "This shard is here for a reason. And it's the only lead we got on Pitch. It's our only shot. You have to do it."
"We'll only be a few minutes." Sun assured. "Just enough time to find out why the shard is here and how to defeat Pitch. We'll come right back after that."
Saturn glared at her then at Moon contemplating his options. There really shouldn't have been any options. Time travel was forbidden simple as that. Yet if it could help them defeat the enemy then it should be alright. Right?
"Fine, but we only have thirty minutes them I'm pulling us back." he groaned. "We can't take the chance of altering the past and changing the future. Got it."
"Got it." everyone agreed.
"Woo-hoo, time travel!" Uranus cheered.
"Quiet." Saturn ticked. "Oh he who guards the doors to time, as your descendant I beg thee, grant me the power to travel between time-space. Protect these travelers and deliver us safely to our destination. Oh God Chronos I call on thee now."
The air became thick and heavy, but their bodies became light, floating in the air. Up and up they went, growing closer and closer to a white door which opened with a wave of Saturn's hand. When they passed the world righted itself again and they were standing in the exact same room they had just been only it was different. It was whole. Pure white marble floors and wall with soft shades of silver and blue to liven it up. They were in the past, and for Moon, he was home.
"Hurry." Saturn told them. "We need to move quickly before time runs out."
"Who arrre you and what arrre you doing herrre?" a booming voice called out making them all turn toward the door.
Moon's eyes went wide as he stared at the man he had only heard stories about.
"Prince North." he murmured.
"Ansver me." he growled. "And vy do you look solarr guarrdians?"
"Weel ye see…" Mars began struggling with an answer.
"We're the Solar Guardians of the future." Moon stated going right for it.
"Moon!" Mercury chastised.
"Moon?" Prince North gaped. "Yourrr lying. The moon has niet need forrr gauarrdian."
"In the future there is." Moon assured. "Listen to me, we don't have a lot of time. We're facing an enemy in the future that you sealed away in the past. He has broken free and we need to know everything you know about him."
"How do I know yourrr telling trrruth?" North demanded. "Prrrove to me, you arrre not lying."
Shoulders back, chin high, and so not in the mood for this, Moon marched forward so he was practically in North's face and held up the shard.
"My name is Officer Moon, I am the guardian of the Moon and fun, and I am your son." he announced, using his other hand to show his wrist buckle and the Crescent Heart with it. "How else would I be able to handle the Crescent Heart with such ease? This shard found its way to the future, it did that for a reason. I believe it came to show us the way to defeat Pitch."
North started at the shard pure bewilderment shining in his eyes before he smiled and let loose a booming laugh making everyone jump.
"I vas vonderrring vere zat vent." he chuckled. "To future you say? And yourrr arre son? Da, I see now. You have eyes full of vonderrr like mine."
"Please we don't have time." Jupiter urged stepping forward.
"Aha!" North boom holding his hands out to the girl who was now unsure how to approach him. "You must be daughterrr. Yourrr spitting image of mama. Vanderful!"
"Father please." Moon urged getting the prince's attention back onto him. "We need to know how to defeat Pitch, he is attempting to take over the Lunar Kingdom of the future and therefore Earth. You must know how evil he is. We can't let that happen. You have to tell us how to stop him."
This seemed to somber up the jovial prince. His laughed died away and his eyes took on a more serious shine. He sighed looking down at the shard sadly.
"I see, so hesitation to destrrroy brrrotherrr has caused majorrr prooblem in futurrre."
"Brother?!" everyone cried.
"Da, tell me, wat do you know about Moon Kingdom?"
"Not much." Jupiter admitted.
"We were reborn into the present." Moon informed. "Our knowledge of the past is still a bit foggy at times."
"Understandable." North nodded. "I assume yourrr mama is Tooth. Not even she vould know grrreat secrrret."
"What are you talking about?" Mercury asked now more curious than ever.
"Lunarrr Kingdom has grrreat secrrret zat no one knows." he sighed. "I tell you, because you arrre Guarrrdians, and my chidlrrren.
"In Moon Kingdom, King and Queen almost alvays have tvins. Zere is rrreason for it. Za Moon is split in two. Za light Kindgom, and za darrrk."
"The dark half of the moon." Mercury muttered remembering what Pitch had said to them.
"Da." North Nodded. "Ven royal children arrre of age, zey arre tested. Strrrongest child is giving za Crrrescent Crrrook and uses powerrr to keep negative powerrrs of darrrk side underrr contrrrol. Is grrreat honorrr. Veekest stays in Crescent Palace to harness powerrr of Crrrescent Heart and rrrule kingdom. Ven ve vere borrrn, my brrrotherrr and I already knew hoo vould go vere. He was weekerrr and I vas strong. But did not happen."
"Pitch went to the dark side?" Sun gasped.
"Da, and it turned him into monster." North said sadly.
"But why?" Mars demanded. "Why would ye allow 'at?"
"I had no say." North assured holding up his hands in defence.
"It was the king, wasn't it?" Moon said now starting to understand.
"Da." North nodded. "King Mani-Moon could see darkness in brrrotherrr, he detested him."
"So he sent him to a place where that darkness would grow?" Rider gaped looking dumbfounded. "Why would he do something so stupid?"
"Did not zink anything vould happen." North shrugged.
"He was wrong." Moon gritted.
"Da, he vas." North sighed. "Za negative enerrrgy turrrned brrrotherr and he came back vanting to take thrrrone. Fatherrr faught and lost. I should have destrrroyed brrrotherrr but could not bring self to. So sealed him away."
"If you were going to destroy him," Mercury began thoughtful. "How would you do it."
Looking to the boy, North looked back and forth between him and Moon before smiling a soft loving smile.
"Son like father." he chuckled.
"What?" Mercury asked raising a brow.
"Nozing." North smiled. "Za only zing zat can defeat brrrotherrr is vith za powerrr of Crrrescent Crrrook and Hearrt worrrking togetherrr, but even zen, not surrre yourrr strrrong enough."
"I don't just have those." Moon assured lifting is wrist again to show his father the star shape of the Crescent Heart. "I also have Dream Crystal power. I will use this power to stop him."
"Haha, da, zat may just do it." North smiled gently.
"Times up." Saturn told them. "Moon we need to go."
Moon nodded handing the shard back to his father only for the man to shake his head.
"Keep it, may come in useful." he smirked.
"We need to go." Saturn warned again.
"Coming." Moon hissed bowing respectfully to his father. "Thank you for everything."
"Of course." North nodded glancing over to Jupiter. "Vatever trrragady befalls Moon Kingdom, I'm glad my children live and carry on their vork as Guarrrdians. I am prrroud."
"Moon now." Saturn urged.
"Coming." Moon called running back to his friends.
"Farevell children." North called waving to them. "Take care."
A few minutes later they were stepping through the doors of time and were now back in the present.
"So now we know where he is." Neptune sighed.
"We should go after him now and end this quickly." Pluto informed.
"Agreed." everyone nodded.
"Your all staying here." Moon informed calmly.
"Whit are ye talkin' aboot?" Mars demanded.
"I don't need to drag you into this. Pitch wants me, I have the Crescent Crook, Heart and Dream Crystal power. I can stop him. This is my responsibility."
"You're an even bigger idiot than I thought." Jupiter groaned. "Didn't you just say that our familial love would be the key to stopping Pitch? Were going with you."
"No, I'll do this alone." Moon gritted. "As the Prince of the Lunar Kingdom this is my problem. There is no need to put my princess or her guardians in any more danger."
"You're my guardian too." Sun cried gripping his shoulders. "You've helped us all through this when we didn't know what was going on. You made sure we were safe and remembered each other. You're my friend, you're precious to me. I'm not going to let you do this alone."
"I have too." Moon urged. "Please don't fight me on this, Princess. I have to protect you, all of you."
"Then who's going to protect you." Mercury demanded. "You were the one who said our love will end this. Are you really so arrogant to forget that and believe you can take him on your own?"
"Of course not!" Moon cried.
"Then why?"
"You don't know what he's capable of! If you fight him you'll all die. And I can't lose you again!"
There was a pause as they all stared at him waiting for him to calm.
"Jack," Mercury murmured pulling the other boy to him and locking their lips.
Everyone waited patiently as the two to have their moment and hopefully end this dispute for good.
"I can't lose you either." Hiccup sighed pulling away. "Please, don't do this alone. We can stop this together."
"Hiccup." Jack breathed, closing his eyes and stepping back. "I'm sorry. SLEEP."
Raising his hand just slightly he released a flurry of snowflakes which melted into the others skin and instantly put them to sleep.
"J-Jack." Hiccup gasped as he fell into his lovers arms.
Gently, Moon lay Mercury on the ground glancing at everyone else before sighing and turning his back on them. He knew exactly where he needed to go and what he needed to do. If he could manage it he would end this before his friends ever woke. He did not intend to die of this solo mission but he knew it was a possibility. He just had to make sure that he destroyed the Prince of Nightmares before that happened.
Once he was in the Dark half he had to use the light of his planet heart to see where he was going but it didn't take long to find the Dark palace. It, unlike the Crescent Palace, was perfectly intact. Not a scratch on it. After Gothel freed him from his prison, she must have gone straight to the Crescent Palace forgetting about this place. Or maybe Pitch didn't want this place destroyed. Either way, finding Pitch was no problem. He was waiting for Officer Moon in the Heart of the castle.
"This used to be where I would monitor the negative energy of this half of the moon." Pitch announced with a snort. "Seems my brother found a way to keep it in check after he sealed me away. Even now it's power won't stretch further than the boundaries of this kingdom."
"That's why you need the Crescent Heart and Crook." Moon summarized stopping just before his uncle. "To break the seal and spread the darkness over the moon and Earth."
"Indeed." Pitch nodded now turning to face his nephew.
He was a tall slender man with slicked back black hair and grey skin. Wearing a black robe that covered his whole body. His eyes were a cold gold that radiated evil. His cold sneer suddenly turned into a small amused smile as he took in Moon's appearance.
"I used to look like you." he chuckled. "My hair used to be white, and my eyes blue. Then my father sent me here. And my true power awoke."
"This place corrupted you and turned you into a monster." Moon urged.
"Wrong." Pitch stated. "My true self, the self I was afraid to show, is what you see now. My father knew that, knew that if I were to ascend the throne of the Crescent Palace I would corrupt it. So he did away with me."
"It's not to late." Moon assured holding his hand in askance. "Please, uncle, let me help you. With the power I wield I can reverse the effects of the dark side. I can save you."
"There is no saving me, nephew. This is who I am, now and forever."
Clenching his jaw, Moon lowered his hand, taking the Crescent Heart and letting it float to the hook of the Crescent Crook. Holding it aloft he let it charge with power and prepared his attack. All the while Pitch started on with an amused smile.
"Whatever your planning on doing it won't work." he assured.
"We'll see." Moon challenged.
"Please, Crescent Heart, help me heal him. Purify the negative energy in his heart."
"MOON DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!" he called pointing the crook and heart at Pitch. "CRESCENT HEART, LUNAR PURIFICATION!"
The Crescent Heart began to glow a bright silver before shooting out a beam connecting directly with Pitch. This attack was ten times as powerful as when he used it on Rider to purge the evil that Gothel had placed inside him. It's light was even more brilliant than before, purifying the very air it came in contact with and chasing away the negative energy. It just had to heal Pitch. Or at least, that's what Moon thought.
When the dust settled, he could see very clearly that Pitch was still standing, still in the dark robe, and still smiling with his gold eyes.
"Like I said." Pitch smirked. "It won't work. That attack is meant to purify, but I was always evil, so there was no healing me."
"I had to try." Moon gritted letting his heart return to his wrist. "We are blood after all. That means something to me. But now that I know for sure there is no saving you, I won't hesitate. MOON, ENDLESS-"
"I don't think so." Pitch snarled throwing out his hand sending a torrent of sand charging for Moon.
Not having anytime to deflect the attack, Moon jump out of the way and into the air taking his eyes off Pitch for just a second.
That was all the nightmare king needed.
"Take this." Pitch chortled from above Moon.
Looking up all Moon saw was a shower of sand coming for him. He held his crook infront of him to shield himself but it wasn't enough. The sand hit sending Moon crashing into the ground with a sound crack.
"Gawk." he cried upon impact.
He needed to get up. He needed to move and attack. But he couldn't, looking down he saw that the sand was piling on top of him crushing him.
"Dammit." he gritted struggling to moving even a finger.
The sand was like cement. Crushing him into the ground. Some of it was moving under his body, which he didn't understand until he was being lifted up. Now vertical he was face to face with Pitch.
"Here ends the line of the light side of the Moon." Pitch smirked forming his black sand into a dagger.
"MERCURY ALPHA WAVES!"
Both blinked in shock as the sand around them deformed freeing Moon and enraging Pitch.
"JUPITER, THUNDERING HAIL STORM!"
The next second chucks of ice where crashing into Pitch giving Mercury the perfect chance to swoop in and snatch Moon.
"Mercury!" Moon cried as he latched onto said Guardian's waist. "What are you doing here?"
"Saving your butt." Mercury called over the roar of rushing air. "But as soon as we're done here I'm going to kill you."
"This isn't your fight, please go back."
"Shut up with that already!" Mercury bellowed. "How would you feel if an enemy came from Me and I left you behind to go fight it?"
"I wouldn't let you."
"So what makes you think I'm not going to do the same for you? We're in this together, until the end, as Guardians and as lovers. And if you ever leave me behind like that again I'm going to let Toothless roast you."
Said dragon chortled with agreement as they landed back on the ground in front of the rest of the Guardians.
"Big brother!" Venus cried throwing herself at Moon as he dismounted Toothless. "Oh thank god. Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine, Venus." Moon assured.
"Oh good." she sighed, backing up and slapping him right in the face. "What the hell were you thinking you idiot! You could have gotten yourself killed. Do you realize how worried we all were?"
"Anna!" he winced.
"This isn't just your problem." Jupiter snarled marching forward and grabbing Moon by the collar. "I am of the Moon Kingdom too you know. He's also my uncle. The next time you want to tackle a problem from the moon you might want to think about bringing your twin sister as well. Or better yet, the team you put together to deal with such problems. Or did you forget? As the Solar Guardians we handle threats of the supernatural and world destroying kind. Not just one Solar Guardian, but all of us. Little stunts like this are not acceptable."
"Officer Moon." Dream Sailor Sun addressed, stepping forward. "In our past life you were the leader of the Solar Guardians and always took the burden with pride. You believed in them. Has that changed?"
"Of course not!" Moon insisted.
"Then don't leave us behind like that ever again." Officer Neptune gritted.
"But-"
"Stop bein' sae thick, ye tit." Mars growled. "We're not gowin anywhere. We're yer friends, an' we're not lettin' ye dae thes alone. We can 'elp."
"Believe in us." Uranus urged.
"You're not alone." Pluto assured.
"You're problems are our problems, brother Moon." Saturn smiled.
"So trust us." Rider advised.
"And let us help you." Sun smiled seeing that he was finally getting it.
"You could all get hurt." Moon murmured. "Because of my kingdom."
"The same was true with Gothel." Venus reminded.
"We survived that battle didn't we?" Jupiter nodded.
"And we'll survive this." Mercury assured. "But only if we're together."
Touched by their words, Moon nodded with a sad smile.
"I'm sorry for being so arrogant." he told them looking at his feet.
"Next time you do it, I'll freeze you." Jupiter promised.
"After Toothless roasts you." Mercury swore making everyone laugh.
"How touching." Pitch snarled. "If you're quite finished with your heart to heart, the hour is upon us. The new moon has risen. My time of awakening as king is at hand. All I need is for the Moon Prince to cease existing."
"We won't let you lay a hand on him." Dream Sailor Sun vowed stepping in front of Moon.
"The Crescent Heart and Crook weren't enough to stop him, even with Dream Crystal Power." Moon warned clutching his crook.
"Then we'll just have to try all the Planet Hearts with Dream Crystal power." she declared. "Ready everyone."
"Ready!" they all called.
"Take all the power from the Terran Heart you need." Rider told her stepping forward and placing his hand on her shoulders to transfer the power.
"COSMIC DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"DREAM CRYSTAL POWER!"
"MARS HEART!"
"FURY HEART!"
"GORGEOUS HEART!"
"STORM HEART!"
"CRESCENT HEART!"
"HEAVENS HEART!"
"HADES HEART!"
"TITAN HEART!"
"OCEANS HEART!"
Summoning her Dream Rod, Dream Sailor Sun held it aloft and called up the power of the Solar Golden Crystal.
"SOLAR GOLDEN HEART!"
"PLANET HEART, ATTACK!"
With their combined powers they aimed their attack at the amused Pitch. The energy from each attack melded together forming a giant sphere that was sent hurtling toward the enemy. They all watched in anticipation waiting for the dust to settle.
But they didn't even get to wait that long.
From the dust came a wave of sand that crashed into them sending them flying into the nearest wall.
"What happened?!" Uranus cried after he recovered.
"You're Planet Hearts are nothing compared to the power of Darkness." Pitch yelled letting loose a feral laugh.
"What now?" Venus asked creeping closer to Neptune.
"'At was our strongest attack," Mars gritted. "An' 'e jist took it lock it was nothin'."
"Now die." the villain roared throwing another wave of sand at them.
Rushing out in front of everyone, Rider quickly put up a barrier so the sand wouldn't touch them. The only problem was, now there was a ton of sand burying them. Pressing down on the barrier and straining Rider's strength. But he stood tall with his hands in the air anyway. If he faltered for even a second, they would be buried alive.
"Rider." Dream Sailor Sun cried rushing to his side.
"I'll keep it up as long as I can." he gritted. "We need a plan to get out of here."
"Saturn," Uranus cried turning to the youngest of their group. "Use your time sphere thing."
"What do you think I've been trying to do." The kid gritted atop Baymax. "It's not working, no matter what I do I can't gather enough power to use it."
"It's this space." Mercury declared suddenly realising something, looking horror struck. "This place is crawling with negative energy. We've dealt with it before but not in this scale. Here he has all the power he needs and worse it dilutes our abilities. We let him bring us into the one place we can't beat him in."
"We don't stand a chance." Jupiter whimpered. "What do we have that can beat him?"
"Dammit." Moon hissed clenching at his fists. "We weren't strong enough. Was this all just pointless. Were we just too weak?"
"The Guarrrdians vill neverrr be weak, my son."
As the voice spoke the Crescent shard began to get warm were it sat under his glove. Taking off the white garment he saw that the shard was glowing in the palm of his hand. A beam of light shot up then taking a humanoid shape until it could be seen clearly.
"Father." Moon gasped.
"Prince North." Mercury exclaimed softly getting everyone's attention.
"What is this?" Moon asked not understanding how this was possible.
"I am using Crrresent Hearrrt frrrom my time to comunicate vith you thrrrough za sharrrd." North told him kindly before his eyes hardened with determination. "Listen to me son. You can't give up."
"But our strongest attack didn't even tickle him." Moon gritted. "We have nothing left to take him on. No more power to draw on. Even Dream Sailor Sun couldn't stop him. What can we do against someone like that?"
"My precious boy." North sighed softly. "Za Guarrrdains always have a power to call on. One zat is stronger zan you know."
"What are you talking about?"
"You, yourrr sister, the Solarrr Prrrincess and Earrrth Prrrince are not only rrroyalty amongst Guarrrdians. Za Guarrrdains, za very first, verrre crrreated afterrr outside enemies destrrroyed planet kingdoms."
"Planet kingdoms?"
"Long ago, all planets had life. Solarrr kingdoms job was to protect them. But one day an enemy frrrom furrrthest rrreaches of space came and destroyed all but Earth, Moon and Sun. To keep rrroyal blood alive, kings and queens sent sons and daughterrrs to Sun. Those children became firrrst Guarrrdians, like you after Moon fell."
"So your saying…"
"All have rrroyal blood." North nodded. "All have palaces on home planets. May be destrrroyed, but power is still alive and villing to aid theirrr prrrince orrr prrrincess. All you have to do is call on it. Become the rrroyals you arrre and unleash rrroyal justice upon Pitch."
"Father!" Jack cried as he noticed North was fading.
"My time is up, son" North said sadly. "You know what to do. I have faith you'll be vonderful."
And with that he vanished, taking the shard with him. Jack, Merida, Hiccup and Rapunzel wouldn't remember this, but before the shard disappeared it placed a bit of light in their chests and would absorb an astral form of the children after the battles outcome.
You would think that sudden reveals would be expected with these Guardians at this point. But still, this was a bit of a shock to them all. Yet another reserve of power for them to draw on. One that they desperately needed now.
"Whatever you going to do, get to it already." Rider hollered past clenched teeth. "I can't keep this up."
"All of you." Dream Sun call holding the Golden Crystal above her Head, evoking its power so it was as bright as the sun. "Please lend me your power."
"RED PALACE!"
"FURY PALACE!"
"GORGEOUS PALACE!"
"STORM PALACE!"
"CRESCENT PALACE!"
"HEAVENS PALACE!"
"HADES PALACE!"
"TITAN PALACE!"
"OCEANS PALACE!"
Holding their hearts aloft they called on their ancient homes and their power. Light engulfed then transforming them once again. When the light cleared they were no longer in their soldier uniforms, but lavish dresses and armors of royalty.
"NOW GIVE YOUR POWER TO DREAM SAILOR SUN!"
Holding their hearts out they let the energy of their new transformation flood the Solar Golden Crystal. Sun's eyes closed as she acclimated to the new sense of power, letting it fill her body and change her again. When the light faded she stood as Princess Solstice
"No that's not right." Moon murmured staring at her.
It did look like the princess but more regal. Her angel wings were still present, spread wide and proud. And the air she carried, it was different. She was different.
Holding out her hands she summoned the Dream Rod only this time the sun at the top opened up in the middle so it was hollow and in floated the Solar Crystal glowing with heavenly power.
Rider started at her in awe, feeling the power she carried flow within him. It was so warm and healing he could feel it beating with his heart. It was as if his chest was going to burst with power.
"What the!?" looking down he could see that his chest was glowing, or a small dot of it was.
Covering the glowing spot with his hands he felt them become full. Taking them away he saw a blue sphere with swirls of smoke floating just above his palms.
"The Terra Heart." he gasped.
Hearing him Solstice turned watching as the Terra Heart's power covered Rider turning him into Flynn, but again there was something different about him. His armor was instead Military Formal wear and he had a cape that covered only the left half of his body. And to top it off, the Terra Heart was now encrusted into the hilt of a sheathed rapier. Sitting atop the pummel glowing with its sacred power.
"The Hope Blade." He gasped turning to Solstice.
They shared a loving smile clasping hands before turning to Moon and the others.
"Thank you, my Guardians." Solstice said in a mature, aged voice.
"You're not the princess are you?" Moon asked in wonder.
"I'm still me." She assured. "This is the form I will take when we ascend to watch over the solar system from the sun. I will be known as Celestial Queen Solstice. With the Dream Rod and my husband, King Flynn's Hope Blade, we will achieve peace for all. But first, we need to defeat this enemy."
At her words the barrier vanished and the sand was dispersed revealing an extremely confused Pitch.
"How?" was all he could utter as he stared at the king and queen.
"Pitch, you have conspired to commit terrible crimes against the Earth and the Moon and for that I can not forgive you. In the name of the Solar System, I Celestial Queen Solstice will punish you."
Holding the rod and blade up high the couple summoned their attack.
"HOPES AND DREAMS, REBIRTH!"
Warm healing and positive energy flooded the space of the room, converging then shooting forward. Pitch saw this would be his end and attempted to make an escape by melting into the shadows.
"No you don't." Moon gritted using just a portion of his power to freeze Pitch's feet to the ground.
"No!" Pitch cried as the attack grew closer, throwing up his hands in a futile attempt to protect himself.
It struck and he gave a panicked howl. When the attack dissipated he was gone, not even a pile of sand remained.
But the king and queen weren't done. Holding their hearts even higher they summoned their power and let it spread across the whole Solar System. Rebuilding the former Kingdoms of the Solar System. The planet's may still be uninhabitable, but with the Palaces now rebuilt the Guardians felt power like never before fill them and empower them.
Now it was over.
"Goodbye, uncle." Moon sighed falling to his knees in exhaustion. "Rest well."
"It's finally over." Mercury huffed leaning against Moon.
"Sae we can finally go home." Mars smiled.
"And just in time for school to start." Jupiter reminded.
"Oh c'mon sis." Venus cried.
They all had a laugh at that. It was over. Now it was time to start living their dreams before they ascended to being Guardians of the Solar System And continue their duty protecting all eleven heavenly bodies. And as Officer Moon held Officer Mercury close and watched Celestial Queen Solstice and King Flynn stare lovingly into one another's eyes, he knew the future would be bright and full of hope.
