Chapter 13 – Rebirth

Somewhere in the dark, a shadow was struggling for its life.

'I need a body…I need someone with hatred, I need to survive…I need to get my revenge!'

With these thoughts surrounding him, the shadow was slowly, slowly moving on a road to nowhere. But it was seeing something, felt something. And that something was waiting for it. Was calling for it. Along the road, with its steps muffled it hurried towards that shred of dark light. Trying to catch it, trying to possess it…but it was too late. Once again, too late for it. That shred of light faded like mist.

The shadow yelped in pain, feeling its power decreasing minute by minute, agonizing pain seared through it. Hatred fueled it, instead. The shout was full of it and resonated within darkness…

"I'll get my revenge, Sailor Moon!"

Meanwhile, the lovers were saying their goodbyes to their love nest and headed back home where surprises were awaiting them.

Once in Juuban, they decided it was the best to talk it first with the girls and after that Minako with Mark. Yaten wanted to accompany her, but she refused saying it was better this way. They arrived at Hikawa Shrine and they heard giggling coming from Rei's room. Soon, Usagi's upset voice was heard too, followed immediately by Seiya's voice that seemed to try to make peace between the two girls. Yaten and Minako smiled to each other and opened the door. Everybody looked at them in surprise and not soon after, their faces broke in huge smiles. The two of them were perplexed and knew immediately something was off. And then, they saw it! Ami was sitting in Taiki's arms!

"Ami! You're back with Taiki?" Minako asked blinking in surprise.

"Yes." smiled Ami happily. "I guess the same goes for you and Yaten, no?" she added chuckling.

"Yes, you're right as usual." blushed the blond.

"Minako!" come Usagi's upset voice. "Why didn't you tell us you're leaving with Yaten? You got us worried, you know?"

"Gomen, Usagi. I think it's my fault here." interfered Yaten.

"Your fault?" asked everyone in one voice.

"Well, yes. You see…I kidnapped Minako." he said looking a little embarrassed.

"Kidnapped?" they all once more echoed in one voice.

"Well, Yaten thought it was more romantic this way." answered instead Minako, looking maliciously to him which made everyone laugh.

"Honestly, Yaten! Only you could've thought of something like this!" laughed Seiya, barely holding not to roll on the floor.

"Seiya, stop it!" mouthed Yaten looking angrily and ashamed.

"By the way…what did the two of you do together? And alone?" Usagi asked, looking curious. This question made both of them blush.

"Usagi! Don't be so indiscrete!" Rei told her.

"Yeah, Rei, like you don't want to know." Usagi mocked her and made her blush. It was obvious that she did want to know.

"Usagi, stop it!" she replied, almost in anger.

"And who are you to tell me to stop?" retorted Usagi, her face red.

"Luckily, someone with more brain than you."

"Rei! You're being mean with me!" Usagi said and stuck out her tongue which Rei imitated her, making everyone there being ashamed.

While the atmosphere was warming up at Hikawa Shrine, someone was watching carefully at Yaten and Minako. His eyes were sparkling with fury and hatred for the two of them, for the fact that Yaten interfered in his life and Minako for betraying him after he gave her his heart.

He swore to get his revenge, no matter what. Nobody makes a fool out of him in this way, not even the one he loved…not even her.

It was ten o'clock in the evening and everyone decided to go back to their houses. While they were saying goodbyes and good-nights to Rei, above them a pink cloud made its appearance. The three boys looked up alarmed and shocked, but the girls merely smiled because they knew what the cloud was about.

From it leaped a young lady with pink hair and dark-pinked eyes, dressed with a red skirt, white blouse and some long and white boots. As an accessory she had an umbrella held up above her head. Behind her stood a young man with short white hair, golden eyes and dressed in a prince suit. Soon after, Luna and Artemis leaped too being accompanied by a little girl with sky-clear blue hair and lily eyes, dressed in a white dress.

When they finally landed, the girls rushed to them and hugged each one of them. The boys were still shocked and still not knowing what to do. Then the little girl approached them and introduced herself.

"Hello, I'm Diana. Artemis and Luna's daughter." said the girl with a sweet voice. "And you are?"

"Luna's daughter?" asked Yaten surprised.

"Yes. Do you know my mother?"

"Yeah, sort of." he answered, smiling. "I'm Yaten Kou. Nice to meet you, little Diana."

"And I'm Seiya Kou. Likewise, nice to meet you."

"Taiki Kou. Nice to meet you too."

"Are you brothers?" asked Diana curiously. "You have the same surname."

"No, we're just friends." smiled Seiya.

"And what connection do you have with Neo-Queen Serenity?" she asked again, this time with an inquiring and no-lies tone.

"Neo-Queen Serenity?" Seiya asked taken aback.

"Yes, Usagi. Didn't you know that in the future she will be Neo-Queen Serenity together with King Endymion?" she asked them, looking disconcerted.

"No, we didn't know." answered Taiki instead of Seiya who was suddenly without a voice.

"Then, I guess it's not my place to tell you more." Diana smiled to them. "I'd better let Neo-Queen Serenity to tell you about it." she added, leaving them in more shock than ever. At least one of them was.

Somewhere, in the dark, the shadow awaked. It felt how the strengths were pouring out of it, day by day, minute by minute, second by second.

'I need a body as soon as possible. I can't disappear like this.'

And fate smiled to it. It felt the most beloved feelings – hatred, fury, and suffering. These appealed to it, calling to them. The strengths were drawing into him once more. It hurried along darkened roads, feeding on those feelings, savoring them. This time it was coming back to life, it would get its revenge.

It found him. Smirking, it felt him. He was sitting alone, drowning in hatred, despair, suffering and fury. But what incensed it more was that he wanted revenge. Oh, sweet revenge! It got closer and closer, gained control over him and merged with him.

The man fell to the ground yelling and suffering. But it soon died out, like it never have hurt. He lifted himself off the ground and a chill and cold laugh was heard. In his green eyes, the hatred and wish of revenge were glowing.

"I'm coming after you, Sailor Moon!" he whispered, letting once more the cruel and cold laugh, scaring the creatures of the night and gathering the creatures of the dark.

Note:

The clothes of Chibiusa, Helios and Diana are taken from manga, I described them as I saw in a color page. Oh, and Chibiusa is older, like fifteen or sixteen. The same goes for the other characters too.
