Chapter 20

A/N: I finally got this chapter finished…. Well I must say I struggled not from a lack of ideas but finding time to do so…. I will let every one know right now that this might be the way I end things for this story I might come back with one more chapter or I might start a whole new story from this one I just don't know yet….

On with the story…..

Their weapons clanged with each blow to one another in the midst of this more beings showed up and engaged the others in battle. It wasn't long till Casimiro had Sailor Gamma on the ground.

"Sailor Gamma, Why don't you show me your true power?" Casimiro asked her mockingly as he was ready to strike her when out of no where another sword intercepted the blow. Casimiro looked over to see Sailor moon.

"Sailor Moon, do you really want to fight with me?" Casimiro asked circling her taunting her seeing where he might make his first move against her.

"All I know is that you fighting a child isn't right Casimiro!!" Sailor moon yelled to him angry and off her guard.

"She may look like a child but I a sure you that she is more deadly than I." Casimiro said dragging his sword along the ground circling around her. He came to a stop as he was seeing where he might make his move.

Sailor moon was about to reply to his comment when Casimiro made his move against her, Sailor moon barely getting her sword up in time to block his blow; the swords clashed and Sailor moon looked as if she was going to loose the battle everyone was powerless to help her at this time battling Casimiro's minions.

Sailor moon was now backed against a wall.

"Now this ends Sailor moon getting rid of you will take care of future head aches." Casimiro said into her face.

("What is he talking about? Is he from the future like Starlight?") Sailor moon asked herself.

Sailor moon was knocked down to the ground Casimiro's sword coming down to make its strike when out of know where was blocked by Mahak using his body armor using his armor.

"Mahak…?" Sailor moon said opening her eyes when the blow didn't come. "What are you doing?" She said in shock.

Fighter and Healer made their way to Sailor moon and helped her up.

"Get her out of here!" Mahak yelled demanding them.

Sailor moon fought and broke free of them.

"Serena we have to get you out of here." Healer said to her pleading with her.

"No! I will not abandon them!" She yelled looking back at the seen behind them.

It was then a loud scream of pain was heard by all Serena's heart sank as she turned to see that Darien had been struck down assisting Mahak who was still fighting Casimiro she watched him fall to the ground.

"Darien!!!! NO!!!!" She screamed and ran back to the battle with Fighter and Healer following close behind her. When Serena made her way to Darien she fell by his side tears streaming down her face. The two lights were joined with maker behind Serena they stood there not knowing what to or what to say. Casimiro stood there with glee on his face he had brought down the prince on the earth his future king.

"I finally brought down the man whom I have despised and hated all my life the one man I have never been able to defeat." Casimiro said in a laughing hateful tone.

"Serena…." Darien spoke gasping for air.

"Darien I'm here please hang on…" Serena said tears steaming down her face unable to control them.

"Serena…. You're safe and that is all that matters…" He choked out Serena gripping his hand as tightly as she possibly could, holding him close to her.

"Serena…. I have never stopped loving you… I just wanted you to know that…" Darien said giving her hand one last squeeze then his hand went limp and he took his last breath Serena then held him tighter and screamed out a painful scream of agony. Everyone just stared at Serena who was weeping over her ex lover and friend. Fighter couldn't help but feel wounded over this out burst of love for Darien but understood that he still meant a lot to her no matter what had happened between them. Starlight and Mahak both were shocked and yet touched at the love that was still visible for one another.

"Oh isn't this touching …. Seeing that you still love him this much knowing you chose another to be with." Casimiro spoke mocking Sailor moon and her feelings for the fallen prince it wasn't long after Sailor mini moon vanished causing even more pain for the already sorrow filled scout. Sailor moon got up onto her feet after Darien's body had faded away.

"What you don't understand Casimiro is that as long as I live there is still hope for him to have a future and that goes for all them, you don't understand that I have the power to end everything right here right now I have the power to start everything all over again…." Serena spoke in a tearful tone at this point she was revealing a part of herself she had never revealed to any one not even Darien not even Seiya and they all were watching this unfold as she walked closer to Casimiro glaring at him with hate everyone was worried about what she would do.

Starlight at the same time was having memory flashes come to her then in an instant she remembered everything she walked up beside Mahak and took his hand. He turned and looked at her.

"Mahak I remember now…. I remember everything." She said with a tear Mahak smiled at her and looked deep into each others eyes.

"I always knew you would but could you have cut it any closer…" He said to her with a grin. We have to stop Serena now." Mahak pointed out to her.

"This was never suppose to happen to her this power and anger…." She said with regret.

"I know but now we can try and fix this before it's too late." Mahak said looking at the seen before them.

They then took a chance and stood before her and it seemed that they were protecting Casimiro.

"Sailor moon I can not allow you to do this…" Mahak said with Starlight at his side.

Everyone was in shock and the lights who were behind Sailor moon were in even more shocked Seiya looked at his daughter with confusion.

"You need to step aside!!" Sailor moon yelled at them.

"No! Sailor moon you need to understand that this isn't you it never was…. This was me this was the reason why my memories were taken from me because I did something that no one should have done in the heat of their anger I turned to violence when I should have found another way…." Starlight turned her head in shame.

"All that you had taught me and I failed you…" She finished.

"AH…. isn't this touching now can we finish what we began almost four years ago…" Casimiro said to them.

Mahak and Starlight then saw the Serena's expression fade to a calm they turned towards Casimiro. "Yes lets finish this." They closed their eyes then transformed

All were shocked to see the man that looked like a former enemy now looked like Darien next to Starlight the looked just like Serenity in her princess attire.

Fighter walked up beside Serena and took her hand her face was now at a total calm she turned to look at Seiya and she gave him a smile.

"I think we should help them." Seiya spoke to her Serena nodded in agreement and they too transformed.

"Oh, how nice I can rid myself of all four of you at the same time." Casimiro said causing Starlight and Mahak to look back at Serena and Seiya as they were making their way up behind them they turned and gave a smile to Casimiro a smile that he didn't like a smile of confidence. It was then he realized that this meant he would have to face not only two silver crystals but the combined powers of Seiya and Mahak who were there to amplify the crystals power.

Casimiro made up his mind that he was not giving up with out a fight he stood there collecting all his power and in one big lump sum hoping that it would be enough to end this battle in victory for him. He then released a big ball of black energy that all but engulfed the four ready for battle but it was not enough they all pushed the energy back off of them and back at him and there power surrounded him when the light had faced Casimiro was no where to be seen he was gone and the battle finally won leaving everyone with questions.
