It was worst then insanity. A loud knock came from the door as a youma came in, "Queen Beryl wishes to speak to you..." Her eyes flashed a red color as the youma turned into dust. 'Getting un-nerved Metallia? I went through the same thing so long ago. The moment that Endymion died, I felt as if half of my body was gone. And I became insane. I want you to feel the insanity. I want you to know how it feels to be so confused and be unable to attain a satisfied and happy mind.' "Damn you Serenity." Laughter answered her. ______________________________________________________________ Pluto, Uranus, and Neptune stepped out of the portal and into the darkness. They eyes looked around at their surroundings. They stood there, shocked and surprised at the sight before them. Blood covered the ground, obviously from the dead to the dying youma that littered the ground. "The inners have been here," Pluto said slowly. Uranus stood a gaped. "I never remembered them being so ruthless like this." She could remember them from the little memories that she had. The inners had always been the soft ones, the 'weak' ones, yet before their eyes hundreds of the enemy lay scattered and horribly killed. "They aren't, it's just that when it comes to Serenity..." Pluto continued, as they understood. They quickened there pace hoping that they can meet up with the others. _____________________________________________________________ Blood soaked her clothes. The deep fragrance of it filled her lungs. The darkness and redness of the color was viewable even when her eyes were closed. She felt sick. With her eyes closed, the senshi of Mercury took deep breaths. Even when wanting to be a doctor, she understood the concept of viewing blood... but this much? Youmas laid around them, dead, dying, wounded, body parts dissected from their body. She could feel pity and hatred for herself for doing so, but sooner or later this would have happened. She shuddered and lingered behind. A youma came up from behind her as she called the incantation from her mind and aimed it at the youma, as it collapsed, frozen. "Mercury, hurry up." Jupiter's voice growled at her as she ran up to her, her body slightly shaking still. "I'm coming." Mercury looked around once more, her eyes in so much distress. Why had this become of them, they had never been this bold and yet cruel. But this was their princess in stake. Their princess... the person that willed them happiness in the desperate time of need of someone. She was the one that made everyone smile, that made everyone laughed. Jupiter looked at her friend, whose distant eyes made her lose comfort in herself. Mars and Venus were somewhere, she didn't really know. Those two were determined to get their princess back - and so was she... Her eyes looked at her hands. Blood of those who had helped destroy her past... blood of those whom wanted to steal her present... blood of those whom wanted to take away her future. She bitterly laughed at the thought, 'Over my dead body that is,' she stated inwardly as the two senshis willed themselves foreword, destroy those who came in their way. _____________________________________________________________ 'Damn it!' Beryl's mind went, as she looked into her crystal ball. The senshis had taken a full head foreword attack. She thought it would be an easy conquest, but she was wrong. The inners had came in and killed unmercifully. Even without their leader, they were strong. A figure then appeared before her, as he bowed. "My queen," he said, as he looked up a furious queen. "Where have you been, Kunzite? The senshis are taking a full attack and they are headed this way. I never knew the inners were this strong! They always seemed so weak!" Kunzite looked at her, amused by Beryl's words. "I had sent the other three to attack them... ah shit!" Kunzite looked at her in surprise. "Three more senshis?!" The tone in her voice became deeper and furious. "Where do they all come from? Kunzite, get down there and kill those senshis or it'll be your head." Nodding, Kunzite disappeared, chuckling to himself. ______________________________________________________________ Standing from the shadows, he watch the Sailor Senshis work their magic. 'They are good... hmm... if only their skirts were a little shorter...' he thought, as he watched the red senshi back down a little. Grinning to himself, he wrapped his arms around her. "Caught you, senshi." Angrily, the red senshi grabbed him and flipped him down as the short blond haired general was pounded to the ground with a sickening thud. "Don't touch me, you hentai." She growled at him, as he looked up from the ground, blood pooling from his head that hit the ground rather hard. "How dare you?!" He exclaimed, standing up, she watched as he lunged for him, as she took a step aside as he fell down. Her lips curled up in a smile as she watched him pick himself up from the ground. "Baka," she said underneath her breath. His blue eyes pierced into hers as it was cosmic. The power, the connection, and the bond that they happened between them- she sucked in a deep breath. He looked at her, his eyes looking into hers, "Jadeite..." she stated softly as he walked to her, as his arms wrapped around her waist, as the other one went to her hair, stroking the lovely mass of dark violet. She melted into his arms, as she lifted herself up, bringing her lips together to a long passionate kiss. f l a s h b a c k "They are in deep love aren't they?" The fire senshi asked the general, who looked down at her. It was the first time he had taken a good look at her, and he wished he done it sooner. There was a picture of a goddess with nice shapely legs and beautiful deep eyes. "Yes, Endymion is quite found of your princess." "I hope he doesn't hurt her, she found so much happiness in the days that she met him, and it would tear me apart if he hurt her. She is the light, she is everything to us." Mars had told him, her eyes looking into his sky blue eyes. They had this depth and intoxication, she looked away. "He would never hurt her, he loves her dearly." Jadeite stated as Mars sighed, "Love is a horrible trap." He walked to her, his hands lifted her chin up as she felt the warmth, "No," he whispered softly, "It's something wonderful, something special..." His eyes locked on with hers, as his slips found hers. ______________________________________________________________ Tuxedo Mask walked along the walls, a rose in his hand just in case something popped out from who knows where. His shoes clacked silently onto the rock like floor. His top hat was missing from a tango he did with this ever so persistent youma and his cape was abandoned after soaking up so much blood. He also figured out that it didn't do much good for him anyhow, seeing how it only got in his way. "Serena, I'm coming..." he said under is breathe as the rose in his hand hit the youma that popped out from his right. A copper-like door was in front of him as he pushed it open... only to fall into Beryl's throne chamber as the Queen herself stood there quite pissed. "You aren't suppose to be here." She growled as Tuxedo Mask shrugged. "Like I really care what you say." With an angry cry, she threw a ball of energy at him as he took out his cane and spun it around and reflected it. ______________________________________________________________ What do you think? The original chapter was bad, and then I went back and fixed up the sections and made it a bit more romantically involved. Thanks to Melissa (Lissa) for being a great editor!
