Chapter 13: Onto the Final Battle! Kunzite Kills the Inner Senshi!

I saw myself at the Star Palace from my past life. I wore a long green dress and an emerald necklace that sparkled in the bright room. I walked up to the throne where a beautiful woman was. It must have been my mother since she sorta resembled me.
A handsome young man was standing besides her. He had short brown hair and matching eyes. He wore a suit of dark green and held a sword. "Hoshi is that you?" the woman asked. I nodded and approached her. "How do you know me?" I asked. "I'm your mother from your former life. I am Queen Yuki of the Star Palace." She said as she stood up.

"I am your brother Leo." The young man said. I had a brother in my past life? Wow. I'm an only child in the life I live now. "Can you tell me about my past? I went to the moon and Queen Serenity didn't tell me much of my past life." I said.

Leo approached me. "Hoshi you have a lot to learn. First you were the crown princess of the Star Palace and the possessor of the mystic Star Crystal. You were to use the crystal's power to protect stars, give new stars power, destroy old stars and protect our kingdom from invaders." Leo explained. "I did all this?" I asked.

"You never had the chance to. You were sent to Earth before you can start on your queenly duties." Leo said. "What happened to you? You weren't reborn right?" I asked. "That's correct. I died that day and my soul stayed here in our palace." "How did Queen Beryl attack us?" I asked. "She came here wanting the star crystal to give power to the demonic Queen Metallia and take over our kingdom. She managed to destroy the palace but then escaped to the Moon Kingdom." Leo said.

"To take the Imperium Crystal?" I asked. "Yes." "What about Apollo? He never told me anything of his past life with me." I asked. "Apollo was our kingdom's best soldier and your fiancée. You were going to marry him when Queen Beryl attacked. He died protecting you and was later sent to the future as a cat to be your mentor."

"Then you went to the Moon Kingdom to warn Serenity of the Dark Kingdom but it was too late. The palace was already being attacked. Prince Endymion died protecting Princess Serenity and you both died afterwards. Queen Serenity then used the remainder of the silver crystal's powers to send you, Princess Serenity and the Sailor Scouts to the future on Earth after sealing away the Dark Kingdom." Queen Yuki explained.

I felt tears form in my eyes. "I hope this nightmare ends soon. This is horrible. I hope that this tragic event never happens again. I'll make sure of it." I said as I balled my fist tight. "Can you use the Star Crystal properly?" Queen Yuki asked. "I'm doing fine with it. I was able to use its power to get me to the Moon safely and return to the Earth. I'm worried about Usagi, I mean Princess Serenity, Prince Endymion was taken by the Dark Kingdom and has been worrying about him for days."

"Oh I see. Maybe if she worries too much, she won't be able to use the Silver Crystal." Leo said. "What do you mean?" I asked. "If your heart is confused, the crystal will not work properly." Queen Yuki said. "Really I didn't know that." "Princess Hoshi it's time for you to return home. The final battle is coming soon and you must be prepared." Queen Yuki said. "Right I'll go home now." I said. "Goodbye and good luck." Leo said as they faded away.

I woke up and searched around. I had forgot that I was in Usagi's room. I realized I was there after I heard her snoring. I sat up and looked at the clock. It was about 7:30am. Today was Saturday and we can sleep late. Thank god for that! I tried to go back to sleep but I couldn't.

I got up and went into the kitchen. I saw Apollo sleeping on the floor next to Luna. I smiled and sat at the table. No one was up yet so I made myself breakfast. The dream was still in my head. So the final battle is near? I got up and went to the phone. I wanted to tell the others about my dream but it was too early. I didn't want to wake them.

I waited about two hours to call them. Usagi's parents had gotten up and I got dressed. I think they noticed that I was suffering stress. They didn't say anything and that was good for me. I couldn't tell them that I was a sailor soldier and princess of a kingdom in outer space and had to protect the world from an evil that tried to destroy the universe in the past.

Later that day, we all met at the arcade. I told everyone about my dream and learned that we had to be prepared for anything. Usagi was still upset but she wasn't as bad as before. She was playing a video game with Naru and Umino. I smiled.

"Jess-chan does that guy look familiar to you?" Minako asked. I gave the guy that walked in a close look. I gasped when I learned who it was. "That's Mamoru!" I said. "Wasn't he captured by the enemy?" Ami asked. I nodded. "That's not him. I sense a strong evil aura around him." Rei said. "But Rei-chan that looks exactly like him." Minako said. "Looks aren't everything. That may be his body but his soul is different." Rei said.

The fake Mamoru walked near Usagi. I started to sense the feeling that Rei felt. I noticed that his eyes were ice cold and lost its color. "What do you think he's after?" Makoto asked. "Maybe the crystals." Ami said. "That's it. He's gonna trick Usagi to get her crystal and somehow get my crystal. He'll never get our crystals." I said.

I slowly approached them to see what 'Mamoru' was up to. He was watching Usagi play Sailor V. I eyed him as his hands went to Usagi's neck. Before they could touch her, I shouted. "Stay away from her!" He smirked and backed away. "I will. It's not like you can stop me." He quietly said and walked away.

I don't trust him at all. "Jess-chan what's wrong?" Usagi asked as she turned around. "He was gonna hurt you Usagi. I couldn't let him do that." I said. "Who?" She asked. "Mamoru." I said. "Mamoru?! He wouldn't hurt me." She said. "It may have looked like him but it wasn't him. His eyes were too cold." I said.

"So he's with the enemy?" Usagi asked. "I'm not sure. It seems that way to me." I said. "Me too. I felt an unholy presence around him." Rei said. "We should talk to Luna about this. She probably feels this too." Ami said.

We waited until the arcade closed to have a discussion about Mamoru and him supposedly joining the enemy. "Okay this is bad. Why did Mamoru-san join with the Dark Kingdom?" Rei asked. "When Kunzite took him, he was badly injured from protecting Sailor Moon, maybe he was brainwashed?" Ami asked. "That's possible. I don't think Tuxedo Kamen would turn evil intentionally." I said.

"Yeah he's always protecting us. Especially Sailor Moon." Makoto said. Usagi sighed deeply. "It's my fault he turned against us isn't it?" She said. I saw new tears form in her cerulean eyes. "Don't cry Usagi. It's not your fault that the enemy brainwashed him. We'll get him back safely I promise." I said. "Where's Minako?" Rei asked. "I don't know. She said that she'd come." I said.

Minako dashed into our secret base. She was totally out of breath. "Minako-chan what's the matter?" Ami asked. "It's the enemy! I saw Kunzite in the city turning it into darkness. We have to eliminate him now!" She said. Usagi wiped her tears away. "Let's transform. We have to destroy him now so that the Earth will not be danger." She said. She said this so seriously. It was almost shocking.

We transformed and raced to the dark downtown Tokyo. "I never saw these place so dark before." Sailor Moon said. "Why? Are you scared?" Mars asked teasingly. "No way Rei-chan! It's just sorta creepy." "We should look for a light source. Where the light is, Kunzite is probably there." Mercury said.

Kunzite was levitating over a building surrounded in light. His arms were crossed and a smirk was on his lips. His platinum hair swayed in the cold breeze that the darkness brought. He stood up when he saw us and landed on the ground. Mercury, Mars, Venus and Jupiter jumped in front of Sailor Moon and I.

"Why did you turn Tuxedo Kamen against us?" Sailor Moon demanded. Kunzite smirked. "We brought him back to life after that little incident a while ago." "He died?!" Sailor Moon said as she grabbed on to me. "I killed him! I watched him die!" She cried. I raised my hand and slapped her hard across the face. Sailor Moon let go of me and held her face. "I'm sorry. You were getting hysterical."

Sailor Moon looked at Kunzite. "You revived him with evil magic?" She asked. "I didn't do it. Queen Beryl did all the work. I'm just here to get the Silver Crystal and Star Crystal for our leader Metallia." I balled my fist. "You'll never get the crystals even if you kill us." I said. "Foolish princess. You'll die if you don't hand over the crystals."

Kunzite raised his hand. "If you don't hand over the crystals, your little friends will die." He said. "Your bluffing right?" I asked. "Hell no. I'm damn serious. If you cared for them you'd give the crystals to me." Kunzite said. I saw the frustration in Sailor Moon's eyes. I felt the same. I would never let my friends die but I can give him my sacred crystal. Sailor Moon held me close.

"Jess-chan I'm scared. I'm gonna give him the crystal. I can't watch my friends die this way." "No. Stay strong Usagi. You'll risk the safety of Earth and the universe. We'll just have to sneak attack somehow." I said. "I hope your right." She said. We watched as the Inner Senshi defended themselves against Kunzite's attacks.

"AKYRO TAISEN!" Mars shouted as she threw the scroll at him. It was dusted before it reached him. With a flick of his finger, a huge energy beam shot into Mars' s chest. Blood shot from her mouth and she collapsed on the sidewalk. "NO MARS! STOP IT!" Sailor Moon screamed. "Only if you hand me the crystal." Kunzite said. "Never." She said. "Sailor Moon don't worry about us. We'll avenge Mars." Jupiter said. "SUPREME THUNDER!" She shouted. It didn't even hurt him. In a flash, he teleported next to Jupiter and grabbed her by the collar. He lifted her into the air. Jupiter fought back but it was no use compared his strength. In a snap, he twisted her neck and dropped her to the ground.

Sailor Moon was on the verge of breakdown. She wanted to help her friends but she'd only die in the process. This was torture. We had to watch our friends die from brutal deaths. I felt the tears race down my face. "Jess-chan I can't watch this nightmare anymore." Sailor Moon said as tears were flowing down her face.

"Don't lose it Usagi. We have to be strong. If we interfere we'll all die and Earth will be no more." I said put my head down. Í looked up to see Sailor Venus fly into a brick wall and blood covering most of her sailor fuku. Weakly she stands and fights back. "CRESCENT BEAM!" She shouted. Kunzite managed to block the attack and he lifted his hand up. A multi-colored beam fired at Venus, killing her instantly.

There was only Sailor Mercury left. "Ami-chan! Get out of here!" Sailor Moon cried. Mercury didn't move. She had her blue goggles on and was searching for Kunzite's weaknesses. "I'm sorry Serenity-sama. I can't leave you or Hoshi-sama. The other senshi and I were reborn to protect you. That's why I live. Goodbye my princess." Mercury said as she walked to her chosen fate.

The blue haired genius walked up to Kunzite. A smirk was crossed on his lips as he pushed some hair from his face. "You will die like the others now!" Kunzite said as he blew powerful winds in her direction. Mercury tried not to be defeated so easily but she was no match for the general. We watched in horror as Sailor Mercury died.

I held Sailor Moon close when we realized all four senshi were dead. "How could you! Now you'll pay for killing my friends!" Sailor Moon shouted. She took a fighting stance. "Sailor Moon let me help! I'm gonna avenge them too. It was cruel to make us just watch. Now it's his turn to get a savage beating." I said
