Another chapter title change! I'm sorry again. But please, still enjoy this awesome chapter where everything finally happens!!
~SXS
Finally the Final Battle! A Fraction of the Senshi vs. Nenkaningen
All the blood had rushed to my head since we were still hanging upside-down in the middle of Nenkaningen's throne room. Being that there was nothing better to do, I got a good look at the place. There were the three thrones against one wall and in the center was a giant crystal thing. The walls looked extremely old, but there were some signs of modernization. And of course, the lovely pit of boiling lava below us really gave it a homey feeling.
I had finished crying a while ago and was just silently thinking about what would happen. Nenkaningen had went with that little trickster Oparu and her speedy brother Gogatsu to the future to destroy Crystal Tokyo. I was so scared but there was nothing I could do. But what really purplexed me was his motives. He never said why he wanted to destroy everything. Some of his followers had mentioned about revenge but for what? I guess now I'd never know.
I figured that when the gruesome threesome returned that they would drop us into the lava and that would be the end. No more Usagi, no more Seiya. What would the Three Light fangirls think? Actually, there would be no more anyone. Our friends would all die after us. There would no one left to protect Earth. Not that it would really need protection when it was going to be overtaken.
"Odango?" Seiya broke through my thoughts.
"Yes?" I could barely hear my answer.
"Are we really just going to stay here?"
"Do we have any other options, Seiya? Look at us! We're tied together, hanging just feet above our demise, with no sort of way to even move our hands enough to use an attack. It's hopeless. No one can transform to save us and we can't save ourselves."
"I guess things are looking pretty grim..." He sighed and we went back into silence. "Odango...Since we're not coming out of this, can I tell you something?"
My heart skipped a beat in my chest. "Uh, sure."
"I just wanted to say that...that I...I love you. I mean, you know that already now but still. No matter what happens, I'll love you until our end. Promise that you'll try to find me in the next life." I had no idea what to say to that.
"Seiya..." Just then there was a shattering of glass from somewhere in the back of the room.
--
"Kinmoku Fusion Tempest!!" Sailor Kakyuu tried her attack for the tenth time but it had no use on the thick glass wall. Setsuna and Mamoru had been trying to help as well by pound on the place where she hit to help and crack the glass.
"Why isn't it working?" Mamoru grunted as he punched the wall again.
"It's too strong." Setsuna punched again but could find no more strength in her body. She slumped against the wall and cried. "We're no use. The whole world is doomed." Tears escaped her eyes even though she tried to hold back.
"Setsuna! Look!"
Setsuna looked up. One of the tears floated in front her and became a stormy gray crystal. A glass bubble formed around it and a handle grew from it and rounded at the bottom. A heart formed on top with the sign of Pluto on it in gold.
"What is it?" she asked. She took it in her hand and felt a phrase form. "Pluto Eternal, Make up!!" Gray lights surrounded Setsuna and she was transformed into Eternal Sailor Pluto. Her fuku was the same as Eternal Sailor Moon's but in her black theme.
"I...I transformed. Amazing." Pluto looked herself over. "Alright, Sailor Kakyuu, let's take another shot at that wall!" Pluto's staff was still the same but she felt a new attack. "Ready?" Kakyuu nodded. "Ok. Chronos Typhoon!!" A dark red cyclone blasted the glass wall.
"Kinmoku Fusion Tempest!!"
The combination of attacks was so powerful that the glass of the wall blasted into a million pieces and blew the three captives backward.
--
With time, all the other Sailor senshi had awaken and Mercury freed them all. Now they all sat on the ice and tried to come up with a plan.
"We need to help Usagi-chan!" Minako said.
"How is Seiya alive if the talisman was taken from him?" Yaten asked.
"I'm not sure, but he was alive," Mercury said.
"But what can we do?" Rei threw her arms up in frustration. "We've only got one senshi."
"Well, maybe there's a way we can get you to transform," Taiki suggested. "Mercury, you said that the crystal formed your tear?"
"Yeah."
"Well, what were you crying about?"
"I thought I wasn't any use to Usagi because I couldn't break out of the chains...Maybe it was my determination to protect our princess."
"It's worth a shot! What have we got to lose?" Makoto said.
"Yeah! Let's try it for Usagi!" Minako and Rei agreed.
"We'll do anything for our princess," Haruka said.
"Aww, man! I feel useless now," Yaten said.
"We can still help, Yaten," Taiki said. "Remember Seiya's tip about our Star Yells?" At first Yaten didn't realize what he meant, then he remembered and his eyes went wide.
"You actually did that?" he asked.
"You didn't?! Yaten, you fail!" Taiki turned around a zipper could be heard. Then he turned back and his Star Yell was in his hand.
Yaten turned too and turned back with his Star Yell. "I did do it. I'm just surprised you did." Taiki hung his head in defeat.
"Just let's come on and help the girls. For the Earth, moon and Kinmoku-sei!" Taiki held his Star Yell in the air.
The senshi all had their eyes closed, except Mercury. They were concentrating on protecting their princess. Minako was even trying to make herself cry. But as hard as they tried nothing happened.
"What's wrong? Why isn't it working?"
"I couldn't be more determined if I tried!"
"Maybe it can't be forced..." Mercury said.
"Great!" Makoto said. "Then it'll never happen while we're just sitting around here. Let's just go! We'll use our bodies, not our powers! We've got to protect Usagi somehow! We've just got to go and risk everything!"
"I agree! Anything for Usagi!" Minako said.
"Anything for Usagi!" everyone else said in unison. They all charged out of the cell and down all the corridors looking for their princess.
--
A few minutes after we heard the shattering, three figures stepped out from the back wall of the room. Two were Sailor senshi and one was just a regular guy but I had never been so happy to see any of them in my entire life.
"Pluto! Mamo-chan!"
"Princess!"
A transformed Kakyuu Princess, an upgraded Sailor Pluto, and Mamoru ran over to where we were.
Pluto flipped her staff around so the sharp end was facing up. Then she back away from the lava pit and ran towards us, jumping in the air. She sliced the rope that held our ankles together. I screamed. Kakyuu ran from the other side and jumped across, grabbing us in the process. One more slice from Pluto's staff and the chains binding our bodies were snapped.
"That was amazing! Thanks!" I said. Mamoru helped me to my feet. The blood was leaving my head and rushing to the rest of my body so I felt a little dizzy but I was ok in general.
"Fighter, how did this happen?" Kakyuu asked.
"Some crazy girl led us here saying that she'd help us free everyone else. Turns out she was working for Nenkaningen. They all went to Crystal Tokyo to destroy the future," Seiya explained.
"Sailor Moon, where did you get that new fuku?" Pluto noticed my strange new senshi uniform.
"Oh, yeah. Some senshi from the future gave me her crystal to transform. Sailor Cosmos. I'm Sailor Cosmic Moon now."
"Sailor Cosmos? So she was the one at the Gates..." she trailed off. "Well, it doesn't matter now. Nenkaningen has the talisman and there's no one at the Time Gates stopping him from going into the future. We've got to get everyone else free and get there before it's too late, if it isn't already." That kind of talk scared me.
Seiya and I took the lead and ran through the halls trying to find our way back from where we came. Around one corner we unexpectedly smashed into a large group of people. It was, in fact, the rest of the senshi, on their way to find us.
"Pluto!" Haruka, Michiru and Hotaru said, surprised.
"Princess!" Taiki and Yaten said, also in shock.
"Usagi!" the Inner senshi cried.
"You guys didn't need us after all," Mamoru said.
"It's all thanks to this amazing upgrade." Mercury stepped forward wearing a new fuku.
"But how did you transform?" I asked.
"My Eternal henshin tool just appeared."
We spent a little more time briefing each other on the events that had happened since we separated. Finally, Pluto said, "We have to teleport to the Time Gates and travel to the future. The only problem is, we only have four senshi and-" She counted everyone. "-fourteen people! We don't have enough power to all get there."
"Then we'll have to have only certain people go," Haruka said. "And I am going to be one of those people."
"Me too," Minako said stepping forward.
"Well, I'm definitely going," said Seiya.
"I'm going too," Mamoru said. "I have some business with him."
"I believe that is all we can take," Pluto said. "One person for each able senshi."
"Haruka, will you be ok?" Michiru asked. "Please promise you'll be careful."
"I promise. Don't go flirting with anyone while I'm gone," Haruka winked.
"Oh? Are you jealous?" Michiru winked back and gave Haruka a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Hey, uh, Minako." Yaten came over to her and wouldn't look her directly in the eye. "Uh...be careful, ok? This is going to be dangerous and-"
Minako cut him off by squeezing the life out of him. "I'll do anything for you Yaten! I dedicate this fight to you. In the name of love I will not lose!"
"You should be careful too, Mercury. Just because you're transformed, doesn't make that much of a difference. Obviously this enemy is powerful because of the talisman," Taiki said.
Mercury nodded while her cheeks turned pink. "I-I'll be ok, Taiki-san. I promise." Then Taiki blushed also.
"Is everyone ready to go?" Pluto asked. Everyone who was going nodded.
We all took hands and formed a big circle.
"Be careful, Usagi," Rei, Makoto and Hotaru said.
I nodded to them. Then I called out, "MOON ETERNAL POWER!!!"
"MERCURY ETERNAL POWER!!!"
"PLUTO ETERNAL POWER!!!"
"KAKYUU STAR POWER!!!"
"SAILOR TELEPORT!!!"
In a flash of pink, gray, red and blue we were at the foggy place where the Gates of Time stood. Releasing each others' hands, we all ran to the Gates. Just as we got there, Oparu and Gogatsu were destroying the Gates.
"Once we finish, we'll have three seconds to jump through before the Gates collapse," Gogatsu said. They didn't see us approaching. "Just a little bit more work." He was constructing some mechanism that would detstroy the Gates after they went through.
"What should we do?" Mercury said. "If we try to go through they'll just activate the machine sooner. They won't care if they get stuck here because it would stop us."
"Oh no!" Minako said pointing. Gogatsu had just finished and the two evil siblings were preparing to hop through the crumbling archway.
Pluto sighed heavily. "I knew another time would come when I must use my power. TIME STOP!" she cried. With a wave of her staff, everything was frozen but us.
"Pluto, what did you do?" I asked.
"I had to stop time or you wouldn't be able to go through."
"But by doing that you sacrifice your life!" Haruka said.
"What?!" All the rest of us shouted.
"She's right," Pluto said. "But better that I die than the world be destroyed. Go, Sailor Moon-tachi. Hurry and save the future. I'll be fine." I looked at her on the verge of tears. "I promise."
We all looked to each other and nodded. Then we took hands in a long line and hopped into the portal in the Gates, just as it disintegrated.
When we landed in Crystal Tokyo, it didn't look like the untopian city I remembered. Many of hte buildings had been destroyed and the streets were empty. Only the palace remained intact, and it seemed as though it were not made of crystal anymore. It was colorful, but the colors were dull and old looking.
"What did he do to our palace?" Mamoru asked. I winced slightly at his use of the term 'our'.
"He must have rebuilt it using something else," Mercury said. "These seem almost like old gemstones that he smelted down and mixed to make into a new kind of metal."
"That's very strange," Minako said.
"Come on. Let's get in there and get him," Haruka said and we followed her lead into the strange palace.
The inside of the castle was eerie and dark. Torches lined the walls but only half of them were lit. The shadowy glow fell upon us. Out of nervousness, I grabbed Seiya's hand. Mamoru saw and turned away.
The hall we were in started to grow narrower and we pressed in closer to each other. At first, I hadn't realized, but then I noticed that it wasn't that it was constructed narrower, but the walls were closing in on us. "Uh, guys? Let's move!"
We broke into a run, single-file. The walls started to move faster. "Of course."
As we continued to experience what it's like to be in a trach compactor, MInako started to tear up. She was falling behind.
"What's wrong, Minako-chan?" Mercury asked.
"I don't know...I just can't breath..." Of course now we weould learn that Minako is claustraphobic.
"Minako, you have to keep going!" Haruka called. Minako collapsed.
"I...I..." She started breathing heavy. Suddenly a gold light shone from her tears. An eternal wand appeared with the sign of Venus on it. "Wha-What?" She grabbed it hastily and called, "Venus Eternal, Make up!!"
Eternal Sailor Venus replaced MInako. With a new boost of confidence she sped up and joined us as we sprinted to the end of the hall. Flying away from the walls as they met in closing, we fell in a pile on top of each other. After a moment, we stood and brushed ourselves off.
"Well, that was both terrifying and beneficial," Venus said.
Then we looked ahead. Three different hallways forked before us. "Perfect," I said. "Which hall do you think is the right one?"
"Well, there's seven of us. We should split up," Mercury suggested. "Haruka-san and I will go down this one, Mamoru-san and Kakyuu-san can go down that one, and you, Venus and Seiya can go down the last one." We nodded then said goodbye and goodluck to each other befre breaking into the groups. Our group of three ran down the hall in silence.
After a while of running with almost nothing to light the way, there seemed to be a shine coming from ahead. "That must be the end," Seiya said. "But we have to be careful. We don't know what's down there. It could be anything."
"Right," Venus and I said.
We came to the end and there was a door there that was slightly ajar. Hiding in the shadows behind it, Seiya counted us off and we kicked the door down.
On the other side, Nenkaningen, Gogatsu, and that little brat Oparu were laughing and drinking wine. Gogatsu spewed his drink when he saw us and Oparu started choking and coughed, "They escaped!"
"GET THEM!!" Nenknaingen shouted and grabbed for the talisman. Seiya darted over and grabbed it at the same time.
"I'll get the talisman! You get the other two!" Then he started to push and pull on the tier with Nenkaningen on the other side.
"Venus! It's time to test out your new powers!"
"Venus Rolling Heart Vibration!" The new attack hit Oparu and she flew across the room.
"My turn. Celestial Moon Cosmic Blast!" For the first time, my attack came from my hands instead of some kind of staff. Gogatsu went flying as well and joined his sister.
I looked back to Seiya and Nenkaningen who were still at it for the Kinmotsuai no Tier. Seiya used his powers but Nenkaningen was quick to retaliate.
"Sailor Moon! Look out!" I heard Venus cry just in time for me to see a rainbow beam of energy heading in my direction. It hit me in the stomach and I fell backwards. Holding my head, I sat up and looked back at the evil kids.
"Excellent work, my sister," Gogatsu said.
"To you as well, my brother. Together we're unstoppable!"
"Well, I think you won't be too fond of each other when I'm through. Hate!" Venus thrust her hands forward, palms facing the evil siblings. Suddenly, the looks in their eyes morphed. It changed from admiration and respect to hatred.
"Actually, now that I think about it, you would be nothing without me," Gogatsu said. "After all, I am older. I do the most work. You're just a little child. You're too young for this kind of work."
"At least I don't look like a leprechaun!" Oparu shouted. "Why don't you go back to Ireland where you belong! I can handle things here myself."
Soon fists were flying between the two and a fight ensued. They had completely forgotten about us.
"What did you do?" I turned to Venus.
She shrugged. "I don't exactly know...Must have something to do with these awesome new powers."
Then I remembered Seiya. He was still wrestling Nenkaningen for the talisman. They continued to blast each other back and forth.
"Celestial Moon Cosmic Blast!"
"Venus Love and Beauty Shock!"
We both hit Nenkaningen staright on and he lost his grip on the talisman. Seiya fell backward and held it in the air. "Sailor Moon! Catch!" he called and flung it toward me. Luckily, I hadn't forgotten all that special training we had done for baseball and I caught the tier just as Nenkaningen was struggling to his feet.
"Venus!" I cried and threw it to her. She fumbled with it for a minute. I held my breath. Finally she gripped it and gave a V-for-victory sign.
Unfortunately, Nenkaningen was up and ready to fight again. "ENOUGH FOOLISHNESS!!!" he boomed and the whole room shoock. He turned to Gogatsu and Oparu who were still fighting with one another. "If you two are going to be like this then I don't need you!" They were so engrossed in their battle that they didn't even realize that Nenkaningen was killing them. He hit them with a bright white beam of energy and they were gone. Then he turned to us. "You're next!"
Venus attempted to throw the talisman back to me so I could use it, but this time I wasn't so lucky and it dropped. Before I could grab it, Nenkaningen had it. He chuckled deeply and the sound was full of evil.
"Now, LEAVE!!" He waved the tier and a red beam of energy hit all three of us. We were flung out the window and began to fall when a gust of wind swirled around us and brought us to safety.
"What the?"
"Down here!" someone called. We saw Mercury and Uranus standing on the ground. Uranus seemed to be controlling the wind and made us land safely.
"Haruka! You transformed?"
"Yup! And I have control over wind. These eternal powers give us control over our planetary elements."
"Oh! So that's how I controlled Gogatsu and Oparu's emotions."
"And how I froze the water in the dungeon."
"Wow," I said. "And all this time I thought that all I could do was finish off bad guys. I never actually experimented with my element. What is my element anyway?"
"You won't have a chance to find out." Nenkaningen jumped from the window and landed heavily making the ground vibrate beneath us.
"Space Turbulence!!" Uranus cried and hit Nenkaningen. He stumbled slightly.
"Water!" Mercury called and raised her arms. Water from a broken fountain in front of the palace gushed and soaked Nenkaningen. Then Mercury thrust her hands towards him and shouted, "FREEZE!!"
INstantly, he became a block of ice. "Now, Sailor Moon!" everyone called out but I had nothing to attack him with. The talisman had been frozen with him. I decided that I would use my other new power but before I could, the ice cracked down the middle and exploded into millions of tiny ice crystals.
Nenkaningen laughed. "HAH! I have been alive for more than two millenia. You expect mere H2O to defeat me? A simple parlor trick. What else have you got?"
"LOVE!!" Venus cried and attempted to use her new emotion control to make him feel love for us. His eyes softened slightly but then returned to their hardened black color.
"Do not try to toy with my emotions. My mind is far superior."
"How is it that you came to live so long?" a new voice came from behind.
All of us turned to see Mamoru and Kakyuu exiting from the front of the palace. Mamoru stared Nenkaningen down.
"Ah, my dearest brother, and his little girlfriend."
"Brother?!" we all said in shock minus Seiya who cried, "GIRLFRIEND?!?!"
"So, you don't know the story?" Apparently Mamoru and Kakyuu did because they weren't phased.
I really looked at Nenkaningen for hte first time. He didn't even look like a person. He looked more like a shadow but there were distinct things about him that you could see like leaves coming from no where and lumps that resembled piles of snow. But I couldn't tell if he looked anything like Mamoru or not.
"Yes, your dear prince is my brother. The princess and he were once in love. But that was a long time ago. Becasue of it, I missed the chance at becoming king of the Earth but I didn't mind so much. Not until the world forgot about who I was! The most important peoplei n the world were Endymion and Kakyuu!! I NEVER HAD A CHANCE!!" He breathed heavily and recomposed himself.
"Eventually, Metallia came and destroyed everything. I knew that my brother and his dearly beloved had perished and so I attempted to take control of the few remaining survivors on the planet. I believed that it was a sign that I must rule and this was my chance. But the people rejected me. They had new ideas for government. They shunned me!! LEFT ME TO DIE WHILE THEY STARTED SOCIETY FROM THE BEGINNING!!
"But I was not about to die. Oh no, on the contrary, I was very much alive. I was the chosen one. Every few thousand years one is chosen and I was the one this time around. You could call me...Father Nature. I, the chosen one, would live for thousands of years and keep the balance of nature on Earth. This is how I am still living so long after the destruction of the Silver Millenium.
"When that my brother and his princess had been reborn to this time period, I wished to seek revenge. If he had not found a princess before me then no one would have forgotten me, and thus, I would have been able to become king! I still believe that I should rule. And that is why I recruited Tanjouseki and Rekigetsu and their people. They informed me of the talisman's existence.
"The talisman has quite an interesting story. It can only be born in the body of a Sailor senshi or planetary guardian. And even then, that person must have a certain experience in his or her life that brings the talisman to their bodies. They never realize the difference between the before and after of the talisman's birth.
"Tanjouseki and Rekigetsu were searching for the talisman because they felt the light of its birth. They knew it was a strong source of power even though they did not know many details about it. Only after getting my hands on it do I know the reasons as to why it is born and to whom. And the reason it is so very powerful is the emotions of the person it is born in. In this case, I must thank you, gender-bending Starlight, for creating such a grand tool for my ruling of the world."
I looked at Seiya. He sneered at Nenkaningen.
"And now, prepare for your demise! Starting from strongest to weakest." He scanned our group and his eyes fell on me.
"Oh crap!" Sometimes it sucks being the leader.
Nenkaningen used the talisman's powers but I was quick to defend myself. "Celestial Moon Cosmic Blast!!" Our beams met and were evenly matched. I put all my strength into it, but it was like fighting off my own powers. I started to feel weaker and weaker. Nenkaningen started to overtake me and my beam disappeared completely.
"Sailor Moon!!" I heard everyone shout.
The power of the Kinmotsuai No Tier hit me hard and I screamed. The strange surroundings faded from my view and I began to black out. I heard everyone screaming my name, and whatever nicknames they had given me over the years but I couldn't respond. The balckness was calm and peaceful and I wanted to stay there for a while, just to escape this horrible battle. It was so dark it reminded me of the hair of the one that I loved. He was screaming the most, I could tell, but I just let the darkness take me over.
--
We all watched as Sailor Moon collapsed under the powers of the talisman.
"Sailor Moon!!" we all cried out and ran over to her as she fell.
All at once, everyone was trying to get her to stay awake.
"Sailor Moon, come on! Wake up!"
"Don't leave us now!"
"Speak to us! Say something! Anything!"
"Just hang in there! Please! Just hang on a little longer!"
None of it seemed to be of any use. While we all fawned over our princess, Nenkaningen laughed. Victoriously, he threw his arms into the air and laughed like a madman. He thought he had won, but I wasn't about to let him get away with this.
I looked to Seiya who was crying out the loudest. He and Mamoru were both bending over Sailor Moon with tears in their eyes, trying to get her to wake to one of their nicknames for her.
How did Seiya create the talisman? What could it mean? That was when the talisman's name finally occured to me. Kinmotsuai...
"Seiya! You have to kiss her!" I cried.
Everyone turned to me. Uranus's face looked like she had just smelled something disgusting. "NO WAY!! I'LL NEVER LET HIM KISS HER!!"
"Venus, what are you saying?" Mercury asked.
I went over to Seiya and squatted in front of him. "There's not much time to explain but you have to trust me. I think that this will break the talisman!"
Seiya looked at me with disbelief. Then he looked down at Sailor Moon who was still unconcious. A slight blush appeared on his cheeks. Surprisingly, Mamoru didn't protest as Seiya bent his head down towards our princess. Finally, he met his lips with hers.
It was a gentle looking kiss but I could tell that he couldn't hold back, even though she wasn't kissing back. I turned to Nenkaningen who was slowly approaching us, discharge coming from the talisman's top. But as he came nearer, and as Seiya kissed Sailor Moon more, the power seemed to drain. Nenkaningen didn't take any notice.
"Now I will finish you all off!!" He waved the talisman around and then pointed it at us. We braceds ourselves for an attack but nothing happened. YES!! I rejoiced in my mind. "What? WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?!"
"Love conquers all, Nenakaningen! Love is what made the Kinmotsuai No Tier and that same love just destroyed it!"
"What?! No!! NO!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"
Suddenly, everyone's attention turned to Seiya and Sailor Moon. Apparently, she had come to. What she didn't realize was who she was kissing. She was trying to have an all-out make out session while we all watched in shock. Seiya wasn't exactly resisting, either.
While we continued to observe the strange scene in silence, Sailor Moon slowly calmed down. Uranus's eyes were bugging out of her head. Even Nenkaningen was freaked out. When she finally opened her eyes, she sighed, "Seiya..." Then she saw that it was really him and she screamed, "SEIYA?!"
"Uh...Good morning?"
"Sailor Moon! There's no time to be embarrassed!" Kakyuu called out. "Quickly! We must all finish Nenkaningen together!" Though Sailor Moon's and Seiya's faces were about as red as Kakyuu's hair, they nodded and prepared to attack.
"Ready everyone?" Mamoru asked. The rest of us nodded.
"VENUS ETERNAL POWER!!!"
"URANUS ETERNAL POWER!!!"
"MERCURY ETERNAL POWER!!!"
"KAKYUU STAR POWER!!!"
"STAR SERIOUS LASER!!!"
"CELESTIAL MOON COSMIC POWER!!!"
All of our powers combined and formed a blinding light. This should definitely be enough to win!
--
After getting over my embarrassing awakening, we all combined our powers to hit Nenkaningen one last time. Apparently, he was more vulnerable than when I was unconcious. How long had I been out? And why was Seiya kissing me awake in the first place? Either way, I used my powers to their fullest.
When the brightness of our super attack faded, Nenkaningen lay weak and helpless on the ground. I went and snatched the talisman from him. "Nenkaningen, you were once good. As one of the princes of Earth you had to be. However, I don't know what my powers will do if I use them on you. I'm going to take a risk. Will you accept me turning you back to normal?"
With his eyes barely open, he still sneered and shook his head. "Never..." he whispered.
"You had a chance." My new powers flowed into the talisman, bringing it back to life. "CELETIAL LOVE DESTINY RESHAPE!!!!" No with the absolute full power of the Kinmotsuai No Tier, a white light engulfed Nenkaningen. We all waited as it faded to see whether he would live again or if he would be dead.
When we could see, Nenkaningen was gone. In his place was a little boy. He had dark hair but it wasn't exactly black. His eyes were blue-green. The symbol of Earth was on his forehead.
"Where am I?" he asked.
I looked to my team and they were smiling because he got another chance. "What's your name, little boy?" I asked.
"Nenkaningen," he asid shyly. "Who are you, pretty lady?"
I giggled. "I am Sailor Moon. I'm going to help you find a mommy and daddy." I picked him up and he smiled so cute and sweet. Now I could see the similarities to Mamoru.
Suddenly, all around us, shinging lights swirled. Eight figures formed in front of us while Crystal Tokyo rebuilt itself and became the future we had all seen before. The figures changed from light to people. Ganetto, Juunigatsu, Shinju, Shichigatsu, Oparu, Gogatsu, and two who I assumed were Tanjouseki and Rekigetsu appeared.
"Netto-chan? We're alive?!" Juunigatsu cried out.
"Don't call me that! Ah, what the heck. We're alive again!!" The two hugged. Shinju and Shichigatsu wasted no time in kissing. Gogatsu and Oparu hugged and the last two hugged also. They were overjoyed with the chance of new life, and this was the best place for it to happen.
"Wait!" Tanjouseki said. "Where's Nenkaningen?"
"Indeed," Rekigetsu agreed. "We need to get away from him!"
"No need to worry," I said. "He's right here." I showed them the new Nenkaningen and their eyes widened. "He will be able to start again here, and so can you. Would you like to take him? You can all together make a new life for yourselves."
Rekigetsu looked to Tanjouseki. He nodded and she took Nenkaningen in her arms. "We will do better this time, Sailor Moon," she said. "Please forgive us."
"I already did. Good luck all of you. See you in the future!" The waved goodbye to us as we teleported back to the place where the rest of the senshi were waiting.
Yay!!! How do you like that?! I can't believe it's actually over though!! :( But don't worry, there's still ONE CHAPTER LEFT!!! Here's the summary:
Everyone's back on Earth safe and sound. But what's this? Seiya and the others are leaving? Usagi now has to make the biggest decision of her life. Will she choose her heart or her destiny? Find out in the final chapter Starlights Leaving Forever? Usagi's Final Choice and always remember, destiny is not written in stone.
