Once again, Chibi-Mercury is back. And this is Part III of Yet another Sailor Moon Story, an interesting title, do you not agree? Oh well. I have received e-mails from people wondering about my story, and how ChibiUsa found out that Usagi was Sailor Moon. Well, this takes place in an alternate universe. Everything is mostly the same, save a few small examples, I always got bored watching Rini, in the dubbed version, figure out who the Sailor Scouts were, so I made my own version, using some japanese names of course. But on with my story. Someday, or something. Ha ha. Not yet though, here's a small disclaimer: Sailor Moon is owned by Takeuchi Naoko, and important people. Don't sue me!! Yet Another Sailor Moon Story, Part III "Princess Serenity," the soft, majestic voice rung out. Usagi looked up, and gasped, "Queen Serenity. Where am I?" she paused a moment, "Am I.......Am I dead?" Queen Serenity clucked her tongue, "No, dear. I am in your mind." "What happened?" Her voice quivered a little. "Dear Princess, tis not your time to go, yet." "But the crystal--" Queen Serenity held out her hand, the broken pieces of the crystal inside, "Many people await you. You must help ChibiUsa." Usagi nodded, now Princess Serenity, "I will do my best to make you proud, Queen Serenity............Mother." The queen smiled, and hugged her daughter, "be on your way now, the other's are waiting." "Hai," Princess Serenity nodded. The pieces of the crystal began to glow, gradually, it grew brighter, and brighter, until it was so bright, the Princess had to turn away and cover her eyes. She stood like that, for a while, her luxurious, white dress swaying slightly in a small breeze. The glowing stopped suddenly, causing Princess Serenity's vision to go blurry. Waiting another minute, as her vision adjusted to the light, she turned, and saw the silver crystal, whole again. "Farewell, my daughter. Be safe." Usagi began to fall. It was pitch black, and she couldn't grasp on to anything, she thought. As she fell, she could feel herself picking up speed, faster, and faster, and darker, and darker. She tried to let out a scream, but no sound came from her lips, everything went black. Mamoru looked over her body. She was still in critical condition, and the doctors doubted she would live another twenty four hrs, so they had admitted her friends and family to see her. ChibiUsa and the other senshi were in the room. Rei stared blankly at the girl, trying to believe it was a dream. Makoto and Minako were crying, tears streaking down their face, Makoto mumbling, "It's my fault, I shouldn't have let her go. I should have gone, Me, me, me!!!" ChibiUsa felt weak. Her legs felt like rubber, and she grabbed on the bed post for support. Ami was crying, too, Usagi's hand felt cold. This had to be a nightmare, their leader couldn't die. It wasn't fair!! Mamoru bent over, and kissed her sweet face, one last time, "I love you, Usako. I'm sorry for everything I've ever said or done to hurt you. Forgive me." He grasped her hand, a single tear landed on it, from his face. He took a rose out of his pocket, "For you, my Usako. My one and only." The emperyium crystal fell from her hospital gown, and everyone gasped, hadn't the crystal been broken? It began to glow, and slowly rose into the air. A voice began talking, "Hello, Princess', ChibiUsa, Prince Endymion," she said. Ami looked up, bewildered, "Queen Serenity?" "Yes, my children. I am in Princess Serenity's mind." Her voice quavered a moment, before speaking again, "You all know it is your duty to protect Princess Serenity, am I right?" "Of course," everyone answered, save ChibiUsa. "Who are you? Who's Princess Serenity?" "Dear Small Lady, it tis not your destiny to protect the princess. Yet, you are an important element to this universe." the Queen directed her voice towards the senshi and Mamoru, "Senshi, please, save our dear Princess Serenity, pool your strength together. Touch the crystal." Everyone placed their hand on the crystal, causing the crystal to shine more brightly than Princess Serenity had witnessed. A warm sensation came over the six people, and they all let out a small cry, "For Mercury," "For Mars," "For Jupiter!" "For Venus!!" "For our love, Usako. You have to get better," ChibiUsa stood, bewildered, then spoke out, "For my ma and da!!" The crystal began shining more brightly than before, all their energy inside the it. A hazy mist encircled the crystal, as it lowered, onto Usagi's body. A small breeze picked up, and Usagi's hair began flying wildly. The senshi, ChibiUsa, and Mamoru, having given up their energy to save Usagi, collapsed on the floor, in a heap. All the energy flew from the crystal, and enveloped Usagi. She shined a million different colors, glowing brightly. She opened an eye, and sighed a breath of relief, "Thank you, my friends." She, too, collapsed back into the bed, and all was silent. End Part III. Hee hee, I'll write Part IX, especially since this whole story seems kinda short. This week was too short, but I like it. Oh well, let me know what you thought, send all flames, comments, whatever, to And thanks to all the people that have sent me ideas and possible titles. You know who you are, but I think I'll leave the title, besides, it wouldn't make sense to change it now. I guess this is more of a sketch than an actual story, or is it? Oh well, e-me with comments, Thanks!! Ha ha, hee hee!! Seeya!!! Chibi-Mercury
