The Disclaimer from Part 1 applies.

The harsh winter winds blew around the Sailor Team in the Artic Circle at D

Point.

Sailor Mercury had her visor on as she scanned the area for any life forms.

Queen Beryl's base must be around her somewhere...We have to find it and

defeat her before it's too late!

Eye's wide, Mercury realized someone-or something-was heading towards

them.

"Everyone! There's something heading in our direction!"

Venus narrowed her eyes and ordered: "Get ready in case we have to attack!"

Mars and Jupiter did as told, bracing themselves.

As soon as Mars saw who it was, however, she let her guard down.

Her heart skipped a beat as she thanked any gods who listened to her prayers as of late.

"Princess...Prince...", she breathed.

Jupiter was astonished.

"You two are really alright!"

Endymion looked as equally surprised as he carried the now sleeping Serenity.

"Everyone!"

She had fallen asleep after teleporting, but the man knew that she needed her rest.

It wasn't due to lack of power, but because of the emotional and physical toll she'd taken.

"The same can be said about you! How in the world did you all get here, anyway?"

Noticing the wounds on Serenity's body, Jupiter lost her cool and was five seconds away from hitting him.

"I'm the one asking the questions now! What the hell did you do to Usagi-chan!

Why is she hurt!", Jupiter demanded as she nearly charged at him.

It took all three girls to hold Jupiter back.

"Makoto!", Mars said through gritted teeth.

"I know you're upset, but please calm down! I'm sure Mamoru-san has a reasonable explanation for all this-"

"I...was under Beryl's influence, and attacked her."

Mercury's eyes grew sad at those words, but as she looked at the sleeping blonde, she tried to brighten her expression.

"At least you're both alright now, Mamoru-san."

He nodded in reply, holding his beloved closer.

"Yeah. Thanks to Usa-ko...I'm alright."

Venus shook her head at Jupiter's swearing under her breath.

"Mamoru-san, try not to feel bad about it. We still respect you as our Prince and

forgive you."

Mars nodded in agreement as she elbowed a reluctant Jupiter toward him.

Scowling, Jupiter cursed again before standing next to him.

As she looked into his eyes, he brunette realized the hell he'd been through,

according to what Usagi told them: how he was an orphan, how he hated to think

that he could be a possible enemy of the pretty soldier he secretly cared for, and

how, through all his troubles, he never had a chance to know what real love was.

Until Usagi.

Makoto knew that Usagi was a good judge of character and that because she fell

in love with Mamoru, he probably wasn't such a bad guy, after all.

Feeling extremely guilty for how she and the other Sailor Soldiers had doubted

him in the past, Sailor Jupiter knelt.

Knowing what Makoto was going to say, Venus and the other two girls followed suit.

At length, Sailor Jupiter spoke.

"Prince. I'm sorry for how the other soldiers and I have doubted you before as

Tuxedo Mask. We know that you are much stronger than you give yourself credit

for. We'll always support and protect you and the Princess since you'll one day

be our future rulers."

Tears began to form in her eyes.

"So please, accept our apologies!"

Stunned at how much respect he was getting, Mamoru could only nod in reply.

After he had finally found his voice, he replied.

"Jupiter. You and the others don't have to apologize for anything. I understand why you thought what you did, so please, it's alright."

As the man gazed lovingly at the girl in his arms, he whispered.

"All I ask is that you help me protect her."

The Sailor Soldiers nodded solemnly, knowing that they would promise him that even if he hadn't said anything.

Sailor Mercury looked at Usagi's visible injuries and winced.

"Wow. Those wounds look pretty bad. I don't know how to cure them..."

Not phased in the least, Endymion answered.

"Don't worry, Mercury, I know how to. Help me get her undressed."

Ami blushed at the thought of a man seeing her best friend naked.

"Well, let's at least try to be mature about this, okay?"

Everyone sweat-dropped.

"AMI-CHAN! You're the one acting all embarrassed!"

Sailor Mercury blushed deeper.

"Is that so?", she nervously squeaked out.

Endymion rolled his eyes as he undressed Serenity down to her bra and

underwear.

He sighed as he shook his head.

"Ami-chan, I think you've been hanging around the others too much. Of course

I'm going to leave her undergarments on!"

He winced at the amount of injuries she had on her body: bruises all over her

neck, shoulders, stomach and legs.

Eyes watering slightly, Endymion whispered: "I'm so sorry, Serenity."

The man gently placing his hands on her stomach and the back of her neck, a

gentle golden energy emitted from him.

The bruises were instantly gone.

Mercury's blue eyes went wide as she shook her head out of disbelief.

"How did you do that!"

Endymion didn't answer at first.

Instead, he cured the rest of her bruises the same way.

After he was done, Endymion tenderly kissed her lips as he dressed her.

Cradling Serenity in his arms, he gently replied.

"I have this power that's unrelated to my, the Golden Crystal, called

psychometry. I can use it to heal or attack something."

Mars blinked out of surprise.

"Your Crystal...? You mean, Prince, that you have a Crystal just like Serenity!

Maybe we could use your power in the final battle against-"

Nothing else could be said because a huge dark cloud suddenly appeared above

them.

An energy-ball was blasted at the soldiers, causing them to dodge out of the

way.

Jupiter tried to fight fire with fire, so to speak.

"Supreme Thunder!"

Much to everyone's surprise, the attack did nothing.

Jupiter looked at the black cloud with narrowed eyes.

"Shit...What is that thing!"

Sailor Venus shook her head out worry.

"It's Metalia. Queen Beryl was absorbed by her, so she could have more

energy to fight us."

Mercury bit her lip, holding her fingers to her chin.

Queen Beryl was absorbed by her...

"Can we win against Metalia? She doesn't even have a form!"

Sailor Mars shook her head.

"We probably won't be able to win, not without Usagi helping us...But we have to

save the Princess, no matter what happens to us!"

Jupiter nodded, looking back at the dark cloud.

Her green eyes were distant.

"Right. We have to protect our future...and our beloved Princess!"

Sailor Venus reached for her transformation pen.

"There's only one way to win without Usagi-chan...We must focus our energy on

our guardian planets, and gain enough power to defeat Metalia."

Venus' eyes grew sad as she continued.

"But...in doing so, we would..."

Mercury gently put a hand on Venus' shoulder.

"It's alright, Venus. If it's to save Usagi-chan and the world, then it's worth it,

right?"

Venus brightened as she looked at her friend.

"Mercury..."

Jupiter nodded as a hopeful look made it's way across her face.

"Minako-chan, don't worry so much!"

Winking she added, "After all, we're the Sailor Senshi! It'd take a lot more than

this evil being to defeat us, right? We're going to win, and we're going to survive,

so don't worry!"

Venus smiled warmly in reply.

"Mercury...Jupiter...you're right. We're going to win."

As Minako looked lovingly at her princess' peaceful face, she added.

"We must win."

Sailor Mars looked back at Endymion solemnly.

"Endymion, get Serenity out of here!"

Endymion shook his head out of anger.

"No, you can't do this! Serenity wouldn't want you four to die! She'd want to fight

alongside you, if anything else!"

Mars narrowed her eyes as tears spilled.

"Don't be so reckless! If you don't want anything to happen to her, leave! Take her somewhere safe!"

"But, you all can't-"

"PLEASE!", Venus cried out, equally worried.

The leader of the Sailor Soldiers looked searchingly into her Prince's eyes as she

continued.

"Please, Prince, if you truly love her...Protect her for us..."

Mamoru nodded silently as he left, carrying his beloved in his arms.

Everyone...do your best and defeat this evil. Usa-ko wouldn't want this to be the

end...

The four Sailor Senshi put their transformation pens together and focused on

their powers.

"Mercury Power!"

Usagi-chan...you were my best friend...

"Mars Power!"

Usagi...I'm sorry for giving you a hard time...You really have matured into our Princess...

"Jupiter Power!"

Usagi-chan...have a happy future with your beloved...

"Venus Power!"

Usagi-chan...Princess Serenity...this is for you and our beautiful planet...

In unison, the four shouted: "Make Up!"

Metalia growled as she repeatedly attacked the Sailor Senshi again and

again.

The girls screamed in pain, but they tried to hang in there.

With narrowed eyes, Venus shouted: "It won't end like this! Everyone, concrete as hard as you can!"

Speaking in unison once again, the girls this time cried out: "SAILOR PLANET

ATTACK!"

Power burst out of the girls' transformation pens, making a direct hit for Metalia.

Endymion shook Serenity, hoping she would wake up in time.

"Serenity! Usa-ko! Odango Atama! Hey, wake up all ready!"

Serenity blinked, shaking her head to clear it.

"Stop calling me that...", she muttered, half-asleep.

Endymion sighed loudly.

Now's not the time for that, Usa-ko!

"Serenity, listen. The girls are fighting Metalia, and they most likely won't live.

You're the only one that can save them."

Serenity's sky-blue eyes went wide.

"You mean...they're fighting the monster that ruined the Silver Millennium!

I won't forgive her!"

"Moon Prism Power Make Up!"

With that, Sailor Moon and Prince Endymion ran towards the battle.

Venus screamed her last as she fell onto the ground.

Blood dripped down her bruised, dead, body.

Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter were all laying near her, dead as well.

Metalia laughed evilly.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! THOSE FOOLISH SAILOR SENSHI WERE NO MATCH

FOR ME! NOW THE WORLD WILL BE MINE! I WILL COVER IT IN SHADOW!

DEATH AND MALICE WILL BE THE ONLY THINGS WITHIN THIS WORLD!"

Four powerful attacks broke Metalia's words.

"World Shaking!"

"Deep Submerge!"

"Dead Scream!"

"Silence Wall!"

"WHAT! WHO ARE YOU!", Metalia screamed.

"I KILLED OFF ALL OF THE SAILOR WARRIORS!"

A blonde woman in a dark blue Sailor fuku spoke with narrowed blue eyes.

"Invited by the new era, Sailor Uranus, fights for magnificence!"

An aqua-haired woman wearing a light green Sailor fuku stood back-to-back

with the blonde.

"Also invited by the new era, Sailor Neptune, fights for elegance!"

A green-haired woman in a dark purple Sailor fuku held a staff that looked

like a key high in the air.

"With the blessings of Pluto, planet of time and space, soldier of revolution, Sailor

Pluto!"

A young girl with short black hair in a light purple sailor suit spoke last.

She held a long staff with a slightly menacing look in her purple eyes.

"With the blessings of Saturn, planet of destruction, soldier of silence, Sailor

Saturn!"

Metalia laughed.

"MWAHAHAHAHAHA! THERE'S NO WAY YOU FOUR CHILDREN CAN BEAT

ME! WHY, LOOK AT WHAT I DID TO YOUR ALLIES!"

Sailor Uranus narrowed her eyes as she unsheathed a sword.

"How dare you do that to our friends! Space Sword...Blaster!"

Metalia absorbed the attack, not injuring herself in the slightest.

Uranus narrowed her eyes. "Damn it!"

Neptune bit her lip out of worry.

"What should we do? Our allies are dead!"

Sailor Saturn shook her head.

"No. Luna and Artemis said we had another ally, the leader...but where is she?"

Suddenly, a burst of yellow magic came from nowhere.

The burst of magic-a tiara-went back into the hands of its owner.

A girl with long blonde hair in a blue, white, and red sailor fuku stood.

A young dark-haired man in armor stood next to her.

Sailor Pluto smiled.

Princess Serenity...so you've arrived!

"Sailor Moon!"

Sailor Moon narrowed her eyes out of concern.

"Who are you four? What's happened to my friends?"

Sailor Neptune sadly shook her head.

"Princess, I'm sorry. Your friends were killed by Metallia. We are the Outer

System Sailor Soldiers, your other allies. With us, the Sailor Team is complete!"

Sailor Moon's eyes went wide.

Ami-chan, Rei-chan, Mako-chan and Minako-chan are dead! My...allies? Outer

System Sailor Soldiers...?

Sailor Uranus sighed sadly as she put her sword back in its case.

"Our mission is to protect you from invaders outside the Solar System. We came

to help you beat Metalia and the Dark Kingdom."

Sailor Moon blinked, shaking her head to clear it.

"How...do I win? How can I fight her if she managed to kill my dear friends!"

Sailor Saturn looked away.

"You must use the Silver Crystal. I'm sorry, but, it's the only way."

Tears started to form in Usagi's eyes.

"My friends...give up their lives, just to save me...and now, I will give up my life to

save the world..."

The Sailor Soldiers said nothing.

Endymion tightly held onto his love.

"Usa-ko...", he whispered.

Usagi looked into his eyes, and smiled sadly.

Her tears fell onto his armor as they embraced.

"I love you, Mamo-chan..."

Mamo-chan...I don't want to leave you...I love you too much...

Endymion shook his head, wishing he could do something to help Sailor Moon.

I don't want her to die...I don't want her to leave me all alone...

"I love you...Usa-ko..."

They sadly, deeply, kissed for one last time.

After they broke away, Sailor Moon held her Moon Stick high into the air.

Somewhere, on the remains of the Moon, Luna blinked.

N-no...it can't be...

Tears already began to form in her eyes.

"Usagi-chan...", she breathed.

"USAGI-CHAN!"

The cat looked at the Earth to see a dark cloud hovering over it.

"Artemisu, Usagi-chan will use the Silver Crystal to save the Earth! She'll

die!"

Artemis sadly shook his head as his eyes quivered.

Usagi...Princess...

"Luna...I'm sorry. I don't want her to die, either. However, it's the only way..."

Luna nodded as her tears spilled.

My Princess...my dearest Serenity...

"Usagi-chan...PLEASE DON'T DIE!"

As tears dripped down Usagi's face, she shook her head.

Mamo-chan...Luna, Ami-chan, Rei-chan, Mako-chan, Minako-chan, Artemis...I'll

miss you all...

"Moon Prism Power! MAKE UP!"

The Silver Crystal activated to Sailor Moon's call.

Metalia screamed as the white, hot, light burned every last inch of her body.

She was vaporized into nothingness.

Sailor Moon closed her eyes.

She instantly felt very weak as she fell backwards.

The Sailor Soldier of love and justice beat her last heartbeat, dying in Endymion's arms.

Endymion's ocean-blue eyes went wide.

"Usa-Usa-ko! Wake up! Wake up!"

He shook her, but she didn't move.

Uranus and Neptune looked away, feeling the pain of losing their Princess.

Tears threatened to spill from Endymion's eyes.

"N-no! Serenity! SERENITY! Usa-ko...! USA-KO!"

Suddenly, the Silver Crystal's remaining power engulfed all present in it's white

light.

It was the last thing any of them saw...

Usagi blinked as she opened her sky-blue eyes.

Sitting upright in bed, she looked at her hands, shocked.

I'm...alive...?

The girl was in a bedroom of some sort...but the surprising thing was, it

wasn't on Earth.

She was on the Moon...

"N-nani...?", she breathed.

"What...happened? Did everyone die? Did I...die? What's going on?"

Somebody opened the door.

Luna and Sailor Pluto stepped inside, taking a sit by her bed.

"Princess, we're glad that you're alright..."

Usagi blinked again, looking down at herself.

That's when she realized she was Princess Serenity.

"Luna...Sailor Pluto...what's going on?"

Sailor Pluto smiled as she sat next to the blonde.

"Usagi-sama, your mother was able to teleport us here."

Serenity shook her head out of confusion.

"But...Luna said that she died using the Silver Crystal in our past lives! I don't

understand."

Luna let out a sigh as she explained.

"Usagi-chan...she DID die. However, in that battle against Metallia you fought

in...her spirit was able to teleport us here, using the Silver Crystal."

Serenity looked puzzled.

"But...W-why to the Moon Kingdom?"

Sailor Pluto smiled.

"Because it's your destiny to become the next Queen, Neo-Queen

Serenity..."

Serenity's heart nearly skipped a beat.

My destiny...to become Queen...

The blonde shook her head to clear it.

"Wow. I don't know what to say, I...I'm honored!"

Luna and Sailor Pluto chuckled as they left the room.

"Follow us, dear. There's something important we have to show you..."

Princess Serenity, Luna, and Sailor Pluto walked towards the main room of

the palace.

As she walked through the hallway, Serenity saw all four of her friends, alive and

well.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Sailors Mercury, Mars, Jupiter,

and Venus.

"Minna! You guys are alive...!"

Venus embraced the girl in a hug.

Artemis, lying on Minako's shoulder, nearly fell off as the blonde ran.

Sailor Venus giggled out of happiness.

"Of course we are, Princess. We have a mission to protect you, ne?"

Sailor Mars lightly kissed Serenity's forehead.

Some tears fell from Rei's eyes.

"Usagi, thank God you're okay!"

Mercury smiled as she hugged her best friend.

"Usagi-chan...you did so great against Metallia!"

Jupiter nodded as she winked.

"Yeah, Usagi-chan! You fought with all your might against that witch, no matter

what it took!"

Serenity smiled, not having a clue of what to say.

"Arigatou, minna. I'm glad all of you are safe...Really, I am."

The eight finally entered the main room of the Palace.

There was a white, marble stand that the Silver Crystal was floating on.

A long, red, carpet led to the stand.

Some windows were off to the right side.

Standing there were Sailors Uranus, Neptune, and Saturn.

Serenity smiled as she embraced the three in a hug.

"Uranus! Neptune! Saturn! Thank you so much for your help! It's so great

that you three are okay!"

Neptune smiled gently.

"We're glad to see you as well, Usagi."

Sailor Uranus coughed loudly as she turned blue.

"Princess, you're cutting off my air!"

Saturn nodded in agreement.

"Yeah. Could you let go of us, please?"

The Princess sweat-dropped, letting go of her friends.

She laughed nervously, shaking her head.

"I'm sorry...it's just I'm so happy that I got a little carried away!"

A sudden voice from behind nearly made her heart stop.

"Usa-ko...Princess Serenity..."

With wide eyes, Serenity turned around.

Standing in front of her was Prince Endymion.

"MAMO-CHAN!"

Serenity began crying again out of happiness, tightly embracing her love.

Endymion coughed, not being able to breath.

Losing...precious oxygen...

"U-usa-ko...! I need...air!", he wheezed.

The blonde let go, hanging onto Endymion's arm.

"It's so wonderful...you're alright, and everyone else is, too. Everything's really

okay!"

Endymion kissed her temple.

"I love you...", he whispered.

Serenity blushed, eyes on the floor.

Turning back to him, her blue eyes gently met his.

She smiled lovingly.

"I love you, too...", she quietly replied.

A clear sphere suddenly burst forth from the stand that the Silver Crystal rested

on.

Inside it was Queen Serenity.

Princess Serenity walked up to it, eyes wide.

"M-mother! It's you!"

Queen Serenity smiled.

"My Princess...you were able to rid of that evil. Now, it is time for you

take my place as ruler."

The blonde shook her head.

"How can I! I'm only 14 years old!"

Sailor Pluto smiled as she shook her head.

"Princessu, we're now in the 30th Century."

Everyone's eyes went wide.

"THE 30TH CENTURY?", everyone else exclaimed.

Queen Serenity laughed.

"Don't worry, everyone. Setsuna and I will explain everything."

Sailor Moon's brooch suddenly appeared in Usagi's hand.

It was cracked in the middle.

Usagi blinked out of surprise.

"My brooch...how can I transform into Sailor Moon now?"

The Silver Crystal floated into the brooch.

It transformed from a yellow color into a pink color.

A star was decorated on it.

Inside the star, was the crescent moon with the circle.

Princess Serenity blinked.

"So...I can transform again?"

Queen Serenity nodded.

"Shout 'Moon Crystal Power Make Up'!"

Serenity nodded as she transformed.

"MOON CRYSTAL POWER...MAKE UP!"

Usagi's outfit looked exactly the same expect for her brooch.

The blonde blinked out of wonder.

"Will I have a new weapon?"

Queen Serenity nodded as a rod appeared out of nowhere.

It landed in Usagi's gloved hands.

Sailor Pluto explained.

"When you want this weapon-the Cutie Moon Rod-to work, just shout Moon

Princess Halation, okay?"

Usagi nodded out of understanding.

"All right. So...what happens now?"

Queen Serenity smiled gently.

"Now, my dearest, you will become Queen..."

A few weeks later...

Endymion and Serenity were naked and in bed, kissing.

They had just married earlier that day.

Serenity sighed dreamily as she leaned her head against Endymion's chest.

"My love, Mamo-chan...finally...we'll be together..."

He nodded, kissing her lips.

"I'm so glad to be with you, my darling Usa-ko."

They kissed passionately as they embraced.

They never wanted to let go.

They wanted to stay together forever.

Endymion broke away for a moment as he nuzzled Serenity's blonde hair.

"You know it's our destiny to be together, right, love?"

Serenity nodded, giggling as she kissed his neck.

"Yeah. I just love destiny, don't you?"

Endymion smiled, kissing her lips. "Yeah."

Serenity snuggled deeper into his warm chest.

"Ne, Mamo-chan?"

"Hmm?"

As the blonde spoke, her cheeks turned red.

"That one time...when Zoisite gave you a choice between me or the Rainbow

Crystals...what would you have done?"

Endymion whispered in her ear.

"I would have chosen to save you, of course. Usa-ko, even back then, I knew

I loved you..."

Serenity's sky-blue eyes watered out of happiness.

"Oh, Mamo-chan...I always loved you, too..."

The couple kissed again, as their undying love for each other grew stronger.

Several Months Later...

The ten Sailor Soldiers, Endymion, and Serenity were in the Crystal Palace.

As Neo Queen Serenity momentarily looked at her pregnant stomach, she let out

a sigh.

I'm happy that things are going well, yet I can't help but wonder...

King Endymion was sitting next to Serenity, his warm hand in hers.

The blonde turned her head towards Sailor Pluto.

"Pluto?"

"Yes, my Queen?"

"Although our future is secure and we'll have peace, what will become of the

past?"

Sailor Pluto smiled knowingly, secretly.

"The past, present, and future will all have peace and security, but destiny is

what we make of it. The future is in the hands of those who shape it..."

Endymion blinked, somewhat surprised.

"Do you mean the Sailor Soldiers? What will become of them?"

Pluto smiled again.

"Don't worry. Although they will face hardships, in the end, things will all work

out."

Two Sailor Senshi, a blonde-haired girl and an aqua haired girl stood,

back-to-back.

"We have our own reasons to find the Tailsmans!"

"We can't let you have the pure heart!"

Sailor Venus felt her blue eyes widen.

"The mysterious soldiers!"

Sailor Moon in her Cosmic form blinked out of surprise.

Her heart pounded, and she didn't know why.

"They're Sailor Soldiers!"

Usagi couldn't help but shake off the feeling that she knew them from

somewhere...

The Silver Millennium?

The blonde soldier unleashed a powerful attack.

"World Shaking!"

Next, it was the aqua haired girl's turn.

"Deep Submerge!"

The monster screamed as it became dazed for a brief moment.

Sailor Venus called down to Sailor Moon.

"Sailor Moon! Now!"

The champion of love and justice nodded as she used her new attack.

"MOON...SPIRAL...HEART ATTACK!"

The car daimon was destroyed, screaming "Lovely" as it died.

The two warriors looked at the auto-mechanic's pure heart.

Sailor Neptune frowned. "It's not the one?"

Sailor Uranus shook her head.

She looked up at Usagi.

"Sailor Moon."

The blonde took a step forward out of wonder. "Yes?"

Sailor Uranus tossed the pure heart towards her.

"Give this back to its owner!"

With those words, the couple left, leaving Sailor Moon to her thoughts.

Although there would be many trails for the Sailor Soldiers, Usagi, and Mamoru,

the friendship, love and true world peace gained would make it all the worthwhile

in the end.

The End!

Does anyone like how it fits in with the Anime? This last part was from Sailor

Moon Super episode 92. Yeah, I somewhat changed this around from what I

initially had, but that's because I wasn't pleased with it. (Saturn, Uranus and

Neptune from Crystal Tokyo, the future, are sent back to the "present" time

period). I hope this makes more sense or at least doesn't "suck" as much.

Feedback is more then welcome, of course!

Until next time, take care!
