Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Fixing Broken Hearts. ❯ Part.3. ( Chapter 3 )

Disclaimers: You know the drill by now.

Warnings: Yaoi still.

" I wonder why Bunny asked us to met at Rei's? " Ami asked her friends as she, Lita, and Mina walked up the Hino Temple steps. It was a pleasant day with mild weather as one could want. Lita shrugged as they arrived at the top of the steps. Sitting around the step to the temple's bell, the inner senshi met up with the outer senshi.

" And the one who called us here is late, " Haruka grumbled. Michiru giggled at the tall blonde.

" Sorry I'm late! " Bunny called, rushing up towards her friends with Seiya at her side, arm in arm. Haruka raised an eyebrow at this. Behind the two Taiki and Yaten followed.

" Someone gonna tell us what's this all about? " Rei asked as her two crows perched on either hand picked at the offered corn of their mistress.

Bunny, crossed between excitement and worry, took a deep breath and sat on a temple statue display that wasn't being used at the moment. Seiya stood close besides her. A little too close for Haruka's liking since this fellow senshi knew the princess was engaged to the prince.

" Almost five days ago I went to Mamoru's apartment to surprise him with dinner since he had been so busy with work after coming home for vacation. I found him with another girl, " Bunny said slowly, but surely. Her friends', expect those who knew, mouths dropped open in shock.

" Princess… are you sure? " Haruka asked, jumping up.

Bunny looked up at her senshi and nodded. A melancholy smile spread over her face, " And the funny thing is, I don't get sad anymore when I say that now. "

" Buns, that's awful! I can't believe… " Mina shook her head.

" This just proves that all men are evil, " Rei frowned.

" They are not! Don't judge the entire male gender on a few bad ones, " Bunny declared.

Haruka clutched a fist, feeling her body tremble. After all her dear princess had done and gone through just so those two could be together. After all the battles and hear ache they all went through. How dare he cast aside Bunny for some two bit hussy!

" He'll pay! " Haruka hissed. She looked up when Bunny placed a hand over hers, " Princess? "

" Haruka, it's not worth it. Yes, it broke my heart, but I'm fine now. Really, I am. So please don't go and do something you don't need to do. I've already taken care of Mamoru in my own way, " Bunny said.

" I know what you're feeling, Haruka, " Mina said, walking up to the tall blonde, " I want to beat him senseless, but if we lay a hand on another in such a manor, we'll be making a mockery of what we stand for as Sailor Senshi. "

" As Sailor Senshi it's our duty to protect our princess! Why is it we can't avenge her as well? " Haruka demanded.

" Because if you did that, avenging me by hurting another, it would break my heart, " Bunny replied.

Haruka looked down at her princess and suddenly hugged her. " God, I'm sorry, Buns. I'm so sorry, " she whispered. Bunny nodded and hugged her back.

" Wait! If Bunny and Mamoru no longer get married then how can Rini still exist? " Ami asked.

" I was just going to get to that, " Bunny replied. She pulled herself away from Haruka's warm and protective grasp, heading over to Seiya. He smiled, held her hand in his, and kissed it.

" I see, " Michiru smiled and winked, " So, you two have rekindled an old flame? "

" Well… " Bunny blushed, " I always did have feelings for Seiya and now with Mamoru out of my life, we've decided to give us a chance. Is that going to be okay with you guys? It'll mean that Seiya, Taiki, and Yaten will be here awhile. "

Her friends laughed and hugged their princess and friend.

" As long as you're happy and the love is true, " Mina spoke for all of them. She winked, " I'm so jealous! You've got a Three Lights boyfriend! "

" I thought you said you didn't need men? " Yaten teased the blonde.

" Rei said that. I mean, if Seiya can get together with our princess, what's to stop me from getting myself a guy? If I've got enough love and devotion for all my friends, what's to stop me from feeling that way to another? " Mina said. She looked away and added softly to herself, " Why shouldn't I also have some passionate love? I'm Sailor Venus, princess of the planet Venus, dammit! "

Yaten, over hearing, gave her an apologetic smile, " Sorry, I didn't mean to insult you. "

Mina shrugged her shoulders and spread, almost forcing, a smile over her face as she turned back to the others asking Bunny and Seiya if they've gone on a first date or anything.

" I want all the juicy details! " She announced.

' You hid yourself so well from the others what you feel inside, but now and then you let yourself slip. ' Yaten thought, ' the princess of Venus searching for love. Cursed to never find it? Is that what you think? "

Reaching into his pocket Yaten pulled out over a dozen free concert tickets and slipped them under the pretty blonde's nose. Her eyes crossed for a moment before she took a step back and saw what they were. Grabbing them Mina leaped into the air letting out a shrill of excitement.

" Three Lights' concert tickets! Yaten, I love you! " Mina cried and planted a big, wet kiss on him before she pulled away and began to pass them out. Yaten flushed and saw Seiya and Taiki watching him from the corner of his eyes. His face grew hotter as they gave him a questionable, but amused smile and he tried to shrug it off.

" Mina, stop screaming! My ears! " Artemis wailed.

" But they're tickets to their first Return to Tokyo concert! " Mina protested, " Hey, I've got one left over… "

" May I have it? I want to ask Daisuke to come with us, " Bunny said.

" Who's he? " Mina asked, handing over the last one.

" He's friend of mine. He's a year younger then us and very sweet. Like a kid brother you'd always wanted, " Ami replied, " He's adorable. "

" Don't even think it, Mina, " Lita added.

" What? " Mina asked and declared with a hand to her heart and the other on her hip, " It's not my intention to date a boy who's younger then myself. And if he's like the younger brother I've always wanted, that'll make it way to creepy. "

" What a drama queen, " Yaten said, but amused.

" Are you trying to get on my black list, there, pretty boy? " Mina said, trying to scowl.

" Oh, heaven help me if I did! " Yaten declared just as dramatic, " Someone save me! I've got a pissed off goddess of love on my back! "

" Yeah, and I ain't pretty when I'm mad, " Mina glared with a smirk.

" Who says you're pretty when you're not? " Yaten teased.

Mina tossed her hair over her shoulder and replied, " Prettier then you. "

" I think Yaten is starting to like Mina, " Seiya whispered to Taiki.

" Why do you say that? " Taiki asked.

" Because he only picks on someone like that when he likes them, " the brunette winked with a knowing look.

Taiki chuckled, " That's just what Venus needs. "

Bunny walked up to Niwa residence and knocked on the front door. Emiko Niwa opened it and greeted the girl with a smile.

" Yes? " She asked.

" Is Daisuke home? I'm Bunny Tsukino, friends, " the blonde smiled with a bow.

Emiko opened the door all the way and clasped her hands together, " Hai! I've heard all about you from Daisuke-chan! Come on in! "

" Thanks, " Bunny said and followed the woman inside.

A tall man resembling Daisuke, only older, stepped out from the kitchen whipping his hands on a towel. " Who is it? " He asked.

" A friend of Daisuke's, Kosuke. Her name is Bunny Tsukino. Isn't she cute? I never knew our son was getting himself involved with an older woman. How precious! " Emiko chirped.

Bunny sweat dropped, waving her hands, " No, no, that's not it! We're just friends. I'm already engaged to someone else. "

" Forgive my wife, " Kosuke said, " She sometimes gets a little too excited. Daisuke's up in his room. "

" Thanks, " Bunny smiled and climbed up the stairs. Seeing how there were only three bedrooms, Bunny tried the one down the hall.

" Who is it? " Daisuke called from within.

Bunny pushed open the door and peeked in, " Just me. May I come in? "

" H-hai, " the red head flushed.

' ' Dai, there's a girl in your room. Don't miss this opportunity! ' '

/ / Shut up! This is Bunny you're talking about! / / Dark chuckled, having baited Daisuke again.

" Is he giving you a hard time again? " Bunny asked, recognizing the signs that Daisuke was talking to Dark. With woke up from his nap on Daisuke's bed and flew over to the girl. She smiled and cuddled the ugasi-like creature in her lap. He purred in happy bliss.

" Hai. He's a pain when he wants to be, " Daisuke said as Bunny sat down on the floor besides him, " So what's up? "

" A friend of mine gave me an extra Three Lights Return to Tokyo concert ticket. Want to go with my friends and I? " Bunny asked.

' ' The hotties? Daisuke, say YES! ' ' Daisuke choose to ignore him for the moment.

" For sure? I love those guys! " The red head beamed. Bunny handed him the ticket, " Thanks, Buns. "

" Sure. I enjoy your company. It's like having a second little brother, " she smiled, " I've told my friends all about you and they can't wait to meet you. "

" Would you be able to get another? " Daisuke asked.

" I think so. Maybe. Why? " Bunny asked and a thought came to her, " You want to give it to Satoshi? "

" Uno… yeah. He doesn't really do much for fun and I thought maybe… "

' ' That's almost asking for trouble, Dai. Remember what Krad promised? If Satoshi goes and he sees Bunny, you can bet Krad will appear and try to kill her. You too. ' ' Dark said.

Daisuke felt a little disappointed, " But… "

" If Dark's worried about me if Satoshi goes to the concert, he doesn't have to be. My friends will be with me and we're not Sailor Senshis for nothing, " Bunny said, " I'll be okay. I've faced merciless foes before in my battles. "

She blinked as in a flash of dark light, Dark appeared. " Yeah, but you haven't faced him like I have, " he said.

" Dark, you've seen the battles I've gone through when I showed you my secret. You don't have to worry about me or think you need to protect me; I have my friends and myself to do that. You worry about protecting yourself and Daisuke, okay? " Bunny said.

" Alright, " Dark said and vanished in a burst of white light.

" It's kinda cool how you two transform like that, " Bunny grinned.

I suppose, but I'm used to it, " the red head said. He noticed the ring on the blonde's finger, " That's pretty. "

Bunny smiled, holding up her new engagement ring. A moonstone in the shape of a star with tiny sapphires between each point set in silver.

" Yeah, Seiya gave it to me last night after I was able to tell my friends about my break up with Mamoru. Only this time I won't be throwing away this ring, " Bunny smiled and held her hand up to her heart, " 'Cause I can feel it inside. I may not be married to Seiya just yet, but our souls have been the moment we exchanged our love for each other. "

" I don't think I've ever met anyone so romantic or mature as you, Bunny, " Daisuke said, " Expect for Satoshi, but he's a different kind of mature and if far from being romantic. "

' ' Hey, I'm mature and romantic! ' '

/ / Prove it, playboy. / /

" Oh, I'm not that mature, " Bunny giggled with a wink. She looked at her watch, " Oh, I better go. I've got to pick up Rini from Hotaru's before it gets too late. Otherwise she'll have to sleepover and I've already been stuck with her chores twice this week. " She thought for a moment and added, " Hey, why don't you come have dinner with us? "

" I'll have to ask my mom first, but I'd love to, " Daisuke replied.

" Sure. This'll be great. I know Rini will love to meet you and I'm sure Sammy will too, " Bunny said, standing up. With took his perch on the boy's shoulder and the blonde thought that looked so cute. She hopped Luna and Diana would get alone with With, but they should since With was so sweet and nice.

" What's it like having your kid from the future come and visit you? " Daisuke asked as they headed down the hall and stairs.

" Oh, I'm used to it. It was confusing at first, but not anymore, " Bunny chuckled, " I enjoy having her around and it gets a little quiet with her gone. "

Emiko and Kosuke had no problems with letting their son have dinner at Bunny's since his mother was convince still that Bunny was Daisuke's new, older girlfriend. Kosuke shook his head and was grateful his son took after him. So wasn't Dark.

Stopping at the house where the outer Senshi lived, Bunny picked up Rini and introduced Daisuke to her future daughter. The others would have to meet him at the concert since they hadn't been able to the door. Just Hotaru, who thought Daisuke was rather cute and nice. She also saw a similarity between Daisuke and Bunny.

" Oh, what a cute ugasi! " Rini squealed when she saw With, " What's his name? "

" With, " Daisuke replied as he petted his kawaii little friend who was eating up all the attention.

" May I hold him? " Rini asked. The red head nodded and placed With in the girl's arms. She smiled, holding him under her chin and cooed, " Oo, he's as soft as my kitten, Diana. "

" And she's seems to like you and Bunny, " Daisuke smiled.

" Rini, Diana's gonna get jealous, " Bunny teased her daughter.

" Oh, she'll get over it when she sees this cute little face. I'm sure they'll become friends, " the pink haired girl smiled.

' ' Why is it that girls go gaga over rodents like him? ' '

/ / I ask myself that when girls go nuts over you. / / Daisuke teased.

' ' Ouch. ' '

* - * - *

" Aw, come on, Mina! Don't walk away all mad! "

Satoshi glanced up from his book and spotted ahead a scowling high school girl in a very familiar uniform with long blonde hair storming out form the Fruit 'N Crown. She turned around to glare at the snow haired teenage boy following her. He had a bizarre choice in hairstyling, but it looked familiar to Satoshi just the same. He didn't remember from where, thought.

" ' Don't walk away mad? ' How else am I suppose to feel when someone tells me that wearing three different colored bows with a uniform looks tacky?! " She snapped, " Excuse me, Mr. I Was A Model So I Think I Know All About Fashion and Others Don't! "

Something of a smile twitched in the corner of Satoshi's mouth. Mainly because the blonde reminded him of certain red head when he got mad and flustered like that.

* And whom do you think you're thinking about? You think you're good enough for the Wing Master? Why would he want someone like you? I'm the only one who does. Only I can give you what you need, Satoshi. *

Satoshi ignored Krad by focusing on the two in front of him.

" I said that most people who wear a uniform with three different colored bow look tacky, but on you it looks cute, " the boy said.

" That's not what you said a few moments ago to Taiki, Lita, and Michiru! " The blonde scowled a little.

Taiki? That was the same first name of a popular pop singer, Taiki Lights. Satoshi walked closer and then recognized the boy. It was Yaten Lights. A classmate had brought over her poster of the three boys and all the girls had made such a fuss over them all day yesterday. The young genius also remembered that somehow Daisuke had gotten himself a ticket to their sold out concert. So Daisuke liked pop? Risa had tried to sweet talk him into getting her a ticket and Satoshi just wanted to walk over and pull out the girl's hair by the roots. He was getting sick and tried off Risa selfishness and if she thought she would use Daisuke because the boy had had feelings for her, but she didn't care for him because he was too ordinary (here Satoshi laughed since Daisuke was really anything, but ordinary) then that little bitch had another thing coming.

" Gomen, Risa, but I can't, " Daisuke had replied.

That response had pleased Satoshi greatly and he had smiled to himself at the girl's scowled. Serves her right. However, having Daisuke refuse her, Risa got pissed and called him a liar until the red head smugly, from being around Dark for so long, removed his ticket and waved it under her nose. That shut her up good and Risa didn't show her face from out of behind her book after the class finished laughing at her. Not even Rika had any sympathy for the girl.

" But how did you get it? " Rika had asked after Daisuke tucked it away.

Because he didn't want to be pushed into getting any more free tickets since he knew the girl engaged to Seiya Lights, Daisuke just said he was in the right place at the right time.

" But I only tease my closest and dearest friends, Mina. You should feel honored, " Yaten teased, snapping Satoshi from his thoughts.

" Should I? " Mina replied with her nose in the air. Yaten sweat dropped. Guess he'd have to butte her up to forgive him.

" I'll buy you a milkshake as a way to show you how sorry I am, " he bribed.

A smile spread over Mina's face. Yaten Lights buying her a milkshake? How cool was that? Wow, maybe she should let him tease her more, get mad at him, and have him buy her sweets to make up for it more often.

Ah, the female mind games. Not even Satoshi understood the craftiness of a woman, but he had respect for it.

" Okay, but I'm ordering the most expensive one on the menu! " She declared.

" Oh, no, I'll be out 350 yen, " Yaten snickered.

An evil grin that even made Satoshi smile, if just a hint, spread over Mina's face. Yaten sweat dropped again.

"Better make that a triple for the rest of our friends, " Mina added and rushed inside to make the order.

" Hey! " Yaten protested and followed after her in an attempt to stop her.

Oh, yes, those two were perfect for each other, Satoshi mused. Something slipped from the snow haired boy's pocket as he rushed inside and fell two the ground. Satoshi bent down and found himself in the possession of a Three Lights' Return to Tokyo ticket.

" I wish I had been able to get you one, Satoshi, " the blue haired boy remembered Daisuke saying to him later in study hall.

" Why? "

Daisuke had flushed, " Uno… Well, I've heard you kinda like techno music and you don't seem to do anything for fun, really. "

+ If I do keep this I might be able to see Daisuke at the concert. Front row. Do I dare? +

There was no reply from Krad or any sort of response. Satoshi dared to hope Krad wouldn't try anything surrounded by all those people. It was foolish to think so and maybe Krad got a kick out of his grasp of hope, but Satoshi tucked the ticket away in his pocket. + Is it so bad to be a little selfish? +

* - * - *

At the concert the entire Sailor Senshi and Daisuke sat in the front row, hiding their talking cats and With. All around them fan screamed for their pop idols.

" Isn't this fun? " Bunny asked Daisuke as they cheered. The red head nodded.

' ' Huh. The only time I like screaming girls is when they scream for me. ' ' (It's not what you think, hentias!)

/ / Can't you let me enjoy myself without having to listen to you complain? / /

" Hey, isn't that Satoshi? " Bunny asked, grabbing Daisuke's shoulder and pointing to her right. Daisuke looked over her shoulder and saw the familiar blue haired classmate watching the Three Lights. How did he get a ticket? Satoshi suddenly turned and the two boys stared at each other. Daisuke smiled and waved.

" Having fun? " He mouthed.

" Well, I can stand all the screaming enough to enjoy the music if that's what you mean, " Satoshi mouthed back.

Daisuke laughed and asked, " Come sit with us? " Satoshi shook his head.

" Why not? "

" You're safer this way. "

Daisuke looked away feeling sad. It wasn't fair. He liked Satoshi. The boy was nice even if he wanted to capture Dark. How could anyone not be truly good inside if Satoshi wanted to protect him from Krad? Fate wasn't fair. Bunny watched the on-goings between the two and remembered what she had said to Dark. She'd use the Holy Grail to free Satoshi if she had the power to. Could she? If she gathered all the power of the sailor senshi as one again would it be enough?

' I still feel the same. They liked each other so much. I can see it in their eyes. Satoshi needs Daisuke. He's truly the only one who cares about the boy, ' Bunny thought. She looked up at Seiya, into his eyes with tears shinning in them and he seemed to understand.

/ / Why is she crying? / / Daisuke thought. / / The song's a love song. / /

He turned his attention back to the Three Lights. They were about to sing one of his favorite songs from their first album. It was also Satoshi's favorite.

' ' Reminds you of Satoshi? ' ' Dark asked.

Daisuke blushed, / / Yeah. / /

Deep inside he knew he wasn't in love with Risa or Rika. Daisuke knew he loved another and probably always did. Perhaps it was time to admit it to himself that the one he loved was the one who tried to protect him at the cost of his own happiness, even from the day he had been born.

The red head felt a familiar sensation run through his body, " Uh-oh. "

" What's wrong? " Bunny asked and in a flash of black light, Dark appeared. She blinked, somewhat confused, " What just happened? "

Dark cast her a smirk and draped an arm on the back of Bunny's chair, " It's something that happens when Daisuke thinks about the person he loves. He just admitted it to himself about his real feelings towards Satoshi. "

" Oh, " Bunny said, ' I had no idea his feelings were that deep. Poor Daisuke and Satoshi. '

" Hey, what happened to Daisuke? Who's this guy? " Lita asked, turning her attention to the new comer in Daisuke's chair.

" Relax, I'm just keeping Daisuke's seat warm 'til he gets back, " Dark grinned, " So, what's your name, gorgeous? "

" Buns, look out! " Seiya cried out and pulled the girl out of her seat and onto the stage. Dark shielded Lita with his quick reflexes as the energy attack reduced the seat next to him to nothing. Fans in the first three rows burst into screams of horror and rushed out of the seats. Seiya looked at his love, " Are you okay? "

Yaten, Taiki, and the rest of the senshi gathered around their princess looking for the one who attacked her as everyone else ran out from the concert hall.

" What the hell is going on?! " Haruka asked.

" Krad, " Dark answered as he glared at his enemy.

" Someone want to tell e what's going on? " Haruka asked.

" That one could have cost you, Dark. Getting careless around a pretty face? " Krad mocked as Bunny quickly explained about Krad and Dark to her friends and the Star Lights.

" Well, that explains a few things, " Mina remarked, glancing over at the two young men as they faced off.

Dark gave his foe a hateful smile, " Yeah, you're right and I hate it when you are. "

" You'll hate me even more when I kill you, " Krad laughed.

" STOP! " Bunny cried out and stepped forward.

" You! You're that girl form before who's trying to steal my Satoshi from me! " The blonde scowled.

" Satoshi doesn't belong to you, Krad! He belongs with the person who loves him. Who doesn't treat him like some object, " Bunny declared.

+ Daisuke really does love me? + Satoshi thought, + But why would he want to love a cold, heartless person like me? +

" I don't care what you say! I can make Satoshi mine. Especially when I kill all of those who oppose me. Starting with you, little girl! " Krad snared, raising a palm towards her as energy gathered for an attack, " You don't know who you're dealing with. "

" Silver Moon Crystal Power Make Up! "

Krad stepped back as Bunny transformed herself into Eternal Sailor Moon. He'd heard of her. A powerful warrior said to be protected by the power of the moon. The ancient blonde recalled hearing legends of a moon kingdom from long ago and something called the silver imperial crystal.

" Bunny, this isn't your fight. It's between Krad and I, " Dark said.

" I know, but he's attacked me, making me involved with this fight. It seems one cannot stop Fate. You knew one day I may have had to face Krad from the moment I saw him, " Eternal Sailor Moon said.

" Everyone, transform and help Eternal Sailor Moon! " Mina called out.

Eternal Sailor Moon held up her hand, " No, guys, I can't risk hurting Satoshi. He and Krad share the same body. If one dies, so does the other. "

" But is we don't do something to help, he'll kill you. He's not like us or any of our previous enemies who've had star power, " Haruka said.

" I know. Krad gets his power from the darkness, " Eternal Sailor Moon said, " But I'm ready to give it a try. I will set Satoshi free. "

" I'm afraid even you don't have that sort of power, Eternal Sailor Moon. I've been in this boy's family's bloodline since ancient times, " Krad said.

" What could have happened to you to make you this cruel? " Eternal Sailor Moon asked.

" I'd worry about yourself, little girl! " Krad scowled and blasted an energy attack at her. Eternal Sailor Moon and Dark leaped away as the energy tore the seats behind them into ribbons. Eternal Sailor Moon formed her Eternal Rod. She could use her weapon to shield herself, but how was she going to fight without hurting Satoshi?

" Everyone, get back! " Eternal Moon called out and jumped away from another energy blast shot her way.

" I can't stand this! " Lita hissed, watching Eternal Moon shield herself and her friends as Krad and Dark fought, " Are we really just going to let her fight alone? "

" Bunny's faced difficult battles before that she fought alone, " Ami replied.

" She was never alone. We were there with her one way or another, " Michiru said.

+ Why doesn't Eternal Moon attack? I'm not worth getting killed over. +

Concentrating, Satoshi focused his will to try and reach her.

" What are you doing?! " Krad cried, feeling the boy focusing his will and pushed the crazed blonde back.

" Eternal Moon, destroy us! You and Dark have to make sure Daisuke lives! As long as he doe, I won't mind dying! " Satoshi called out to them.

/ / Satoshi, no! / /

* Be quiet, you! * Krad snarled and pushed Satoshi back. Krad concentrated on his power. All he needed to destroy his enemies was enough focused power.

" Satoshi! " Eternal Moon cried, ' I can't do it. I can't sacrifice you. Daisuke needs you. '

" He's up to something! " Dark warned and focused his own energy for a quick attack to take down his enemy, " Krad, I won't let you kill anymore innocent souls or my friends! "

/ / Dark, no! / /

" Daisuke, st-! " Daisuke appeared in a burst of white light before his other half could release his gathered energy. However, the gathered power needed to be released and it backfired upon the untrained boy.

" Daisuke! " Eternal Moon screamed as the boy flew backwards and crashed into a row of seats.

" Is he okay? " Rini asked as Ami rushed over to his side and checked over the boy.

" Out cold, but he's okay, " Ami replied. She stepped back when Dark appeared.

" Damn kid, " he muttered.

" Dark, he loves Satoshi, " Eternal Moon said. A second later she screamed in pain as Krad's attack crashed into her. Krad laughed as he leaped over and lifted the girl up by her neck.

" Keep back or I'll kill her slowly in front of you, "he said.

" Buns! " Seiya yelled.

" I won't be denied what I want, " Krad vowed.

+ I hate you. +

Eternal Moon gasped, trying to draw in air. Krad was crushing her throat. With shaking hands she clamped them onto his, trying to free herself. She needed air!

" How can you be so cruel? " She asked in a harsh voice.

" It's the only way I know how to live. As far back as I can remember and I'm fine with it. All of the Hiwatari's males did what they could to keep me locked away. They became heartless souls only having children to keep the bloodline going. Satoshi is the last and he means everything to me, " Krad said.

" H-how… sad… " Eternal Moon gasped.

" What did you say? " Krad asked, easing his grasp on her throat. Eternal Moon gasped in air before speaking.

" That people hated your for such a long time. You were just created to captor Dark and nothing more. Someone to be disposed of when you weren't needed. I can understand why you would grow bitter and angry, letting it consume your heart, " Eternal Moon whispered.

" Pff, what would someone like you know? " Krad hissed.

" This path will only led you to your destruction, Krad, " Eternal Moon gasped.

" So what? As long as I have what I want in the end, I'll pay any price, " Krad scowled.

A tear ran down Eternal Moon's cheek, " I'm sorry. "

" For what? " He demanded.

" That no one ever loved you. I think love could have saved you, Krad, " Eternal Moon said.

Krad froze. Love save him? What nonsense was this girl talking about? No one would ever love him. He was Krad. A part of the Hiwatari family history to be forever despised. Why should this girl care even when he could break her neck whenever he wanted?

" Enough of this. I'm going to enjoy snapping your elegant little neck, " Kard smirked.

+ No! +

" Enough of this! " Dark roared and released a powerful attack he had been able to focus while Eternal Moon kept the blonde busy. With careful aim, Dark blasted Krad and freed her. They boy crashed into the stage and laid still as Eternal Moon swallowed air, rubbing her neck. Dark walked up to Krad forming another, " If Satoshi is going to do the brave thing and sacrifice his own life to protect Daisuke and everyone from this monster, then I'll take up his offer. "

" Pff, one way or another, it'll end, " Krad whispered, too weak from the attack to rise. He looked up when Eternal Moon stood before his dark winged foe, " Nani? "

" Bunny, get out of my way, " Dark said.

" Dark, no. Daisuke loves Satoshi. Let me try to save him. If I… " A tear ran down her face, " If I can't, them only then will I allow you to finish him off. "

" Fine, " Dark said and backed away.

Eternal Moon turned to her friends, " Guys, I need you. I need your power. "

" Right, " Haruka nodded.

Eternal Moon closed her eyes and concentrated on her power. " Holy grail, come to thy calling, " she said. The holy relic formed in Eternal Moon's hands bathed in white light.

" Marina Castle of Mercury! "

" Phobos Deimos Castle of Mars! "

" Io Castle of Jupiter! "

" Magellan Castle of Venus! "

" Miranda Castle of Uranus! "

" Triton Castle of Neptune! "

" Charon Castle of Pluto! "

" Titan Castle of Saturn! "

" Crystal Palace of 30th Century Tokyo! "

" Silver Millennium of the Moon! "

Dark watched in awe as the power of the sailor senshis gathered inside Eternal Moon's holy grail. The three lights looked at each other and nodded. It was time to see if Fate would allow these outsiders to unite their power with a princess not their own. It may not work, but they had to try. In the end, they were all Sailor Senshi with star power.

" Maker Star Castle of Taiki! "

" Fighter Star Castle of Seiya! "

" Healer Star Castle of Yaten! "

" Our power to Eternal Sailor Moon!

The power of the Sailor Lights united with the others' powers within Eternal Moon's grail. Eternal Moon held it above her head and her senshis' clothes morphed into ceremonial dresses the Star Lights were given knight-like suits similar to Prince Endyminone's. Luna, Artemis, and Diana became humans once again.

' Holy Grail, grant me power. Give me the strength to free them from their ancient curse, ' Eternal Moon prayed.

* It's so bright. This light. * Krad thought, shielding his eyes.

Eternal Moon tipped back the grail and allowed the power to flow into her.

' It's so warm. This power of my sailor scouts and the Star Lights, ' she thought. In a burst of white light, Eternal Moon's powers and senshi uniform transformed. A star appeared in the middle of her broach, her ball sleeves vanished, her white boots became white winged high heels with crescent moon, and a star appeared in the center of the heart on her Holy Rod.

" What happened to Eternal Moon? She transformed again, " Mina said.

" She's become a Sailor Senshi never heard of outside of legends with even more power then Eternal Moon. A warrior with the power of two different universe senshi powers combined. Bunny has become Eternal Star Sailor Moon, " Diana said in awe.

" Because of the Star Lights' outside power, " Luna added.

Eternal Star Sailor Moon approached Krad. He looked up at her with blank eyes. " Go ahead and kill me then, " he said.

Eternal Star Moon raised her Rod and called out, " Moon Starlight Honeymoon Healing Kiss! "

Krad blinked only once as he was engulfed in the bright light. He felt the familiar darkness welcome him home. He smiled to himself. Darkness was good. Darkness never hated or despised him. Darkness was neutral.

+ It's so warm. This light. I never thought I could be warm. + Satoshi thought as the light and power of Eternal Star Moon reached to him as well. + Goodbye, Daisuke. +

* - * - *

Dark looked up when the light of Eternal Star Moon faded and blinked. The sailor senshi were back in their regular clothing and Eternal Star Moon held something in her arms as Satoshi was resting on the ground besides her where Krad once was. Dark smiled to himself. It seems she had freed Satoshi from Krad forever. He hopped, in the end, it was the right thing to do.

' ' Daisuke, everything is alright, ' ' Dark said and withdrew.

" Satoshi! " Daisuke dashed over to the other boy. Tears of relief and joy ran down his face as he embraced the one he loved. Satoshi slowly fluttered open his eyes.

" Daisuke? "

" I'm here. Eternal Star Moon did it. She freed you from Krad, " Daisuke smiled as he whipped away his tears on the back of his hand.

Satoshi smiled back, " I know. I can't feel him anymore. Now he'll never be able to hurt you and I can stop hurting you, Daisuke. "

The red head shook his head, " You did what you had to, to protect me. From releasing Krad. I can understand, but it's alright now, Satoshi. Krad is gone and you're free from your family's past. You can do or be anyone you want to. "

Satoshi gave the boy he loved, and always had, a smile, " But you know I'll still try to capture Dark since he is a thief and it's a rather amusing habit. "

/ / Same old Satoshi. Still, he keeps me on my toes. / /

" You know you'll never catch him, Satoshi-kun, " Daisuke chuckled. The blue haired boy shrugged and smiled. It felt good to smile. He no longer felt cold. All warm and warmer with each smile from Daisuke.

" Did Krad really get destroyed? " Haruka asked her princess.

Eternal Star Moon gave her senshi of smile and held up the bundle in her arms. It was a sleeping baby boy with blonde hair.

" Is that… ? " Ami gasped.

" Krad? Hai. I used my power not to only free Satoshi from him, but I decided to give Krad a second chance at life. I have an understanding of his life, " Eternal Star Moon said.

" Sailor Moon, Princess Serenity, brings hope and rebirth, " Hotaru spoke up, " And no one knows that more then I do. "

Eternal Star Moon handed baby Krad to Hotaru and morphed back into her regular self. She then took baby Krad back. " Come, we better leave before the police get here, " she said and walked out besides Seiya, cuddling the baby in her arms. Daisuke and Satoshi followed behind holding hands. The red head felt a little shy, but Satoshi just smiled.

" What will you do with him now? " Seiya asked the blondes besides him.

" Make sure he had new loving parents, " Bunny replied. Seiya smiled at his love. She was willing to risk anything to save those in need of her saving.

" Have I told you how much I love you? " He asked. Bunny smiled and kissed his cheek.

/ / Dark, you still here? / /

' ' Yep. ' '

/ / How is it hat you're still here even though the one I love has accepted that I am you and you're me? / /

' ' Simple, really. None of the guys before you had a male lover. You would need a female lover to seal me away 'cause of the fact that you and she would carry on the Niwa blonde line. ' '

/ / Oh. / /

' ' But then, I remember something Bunny once said to me. That you're the light that welcomes my darkness and someday the light and dark would be one. ' '

/ / I wonder what that means? / /

' ' Well, I wouldn't mind that too much since we fit so well together. You're one of my best friends and I'd like to stay around you as long as I can get away with. ' ' Dark smiled.

Daisuke smiled back, / / Yeah, even if you are a lech. / /

' ' Hey! ' '

" Come one, guys, let's go get a milkshake or something! Yaten can buy! " Mina suddenly cheered, " Nothing like a victory shake that's free! "

" I will not! " Yaten protested.

" How 'bout snow cones instead? " Bunny winked at Daisuke.

" Sounds good to me, " the red head grinned and turned to Satoshi, " You in? "

Satoshi kissed his boyfriend's cheek and smiled, " Sure. "

' ' Gag. Too much sap! ' '

The end.
