Angel Usako and Angel Setsuna __________________________ Hi hi!!! This is our first fanfic together so don't expect some incredibly well written story. It takes place after the series ended in the future. We used the Japanese because 1) I like them better and 2) We don't know the English names of the outers. If you have any questions or something feel free to email us at AngelUsako@hotmail.com or MinaPrincessVenus@yahoo.com And *YES* we are aware that the future names are not Usagi and Mamoru but it's our fan fic. Also I'm a really bad speller and bad typist so this just made it easier. Cuz I know that if I used their future names eventually I'd slip up and not even notice it because my spell checker has all the Japanese Sailor Moon names in it. So anyways, don't yell at us for messing up their names. Thanks! As you all know Sailor Moon is a copyright of Naoko Takeuchi and all those production companies that make it and stuff. Although we'd love it if Sailor Moon was really ours we don't wanna be sued so we'll just say that only the story is ours and nothing else. ******************************** The Age of Pluto Part One All the outer senshi minus Setsuna are sitting around Haruka's car. Hotaru is running and laughing as Haruka chases her around. Michiru smiles and turns to watch the sunset. Suddenly a bright flash of pink lighting is seen. The clouds swirl and Michiru jumps to her feet. "Haruka?" Michiru asks and looks at Haruka puzzled. Haruka frowns. She grabs Hotaru's hand and says... "I don't know" Then a cry is heard. Chibi-usa falls out of the sky...Diana not too far behind. "Chibi-Usa?" Hotaru questions. Hotaru and the others notice that Chibi-Usa looks much older. Almost her mother's age when she first became Sailor Moon. "Hotaru-chan!" Chibi-Usa cries. " I've missed you so!" Chibi-usa runs towards Hotaru but Haruka stops her. "Chibi-Usa chan. What are you doing here? Is something wrong?" Chibi-usa frowns and looks at Diana. She then looks up. "Yes. My mother is dead...." Her voice trails off as everyone gasps. Michiru wraps her arms around Chibi-usa. Michiru asks soothingly, "How did it happen?" The only word Chibi-usa could manage was "Puu" Haruka frowned. "Setsuna did this?" Chibi-usa nodded. Diana walks up to Chibi-usa. She then turns to the other senshi and looks at them. "We have to show you" she speaks. Her crescent moon flashes and the senshi go are transported through time. ******************************** They arrive in a flash of brilliant light that no one sees. "They won't see us" Chibi-usa says, "no one will." The outer senshi see Setsuna watching Mamoru and Usagi. Setsuna gestures and if she is touching Mamoru's face lovingly. She thinks to herself. {He'll never love me...as long as SHE is around} A tear runs down her cheek. She looks longingly into the garnet orb. Then her gaze turns cold, and an evil smile comes to her face. Setsuna walks into The Crystal Palace. She stands in front of the door to the King and Queen's bedroom. Slowly she opens the door and walks to Usagi and Mamoru's bed. She touches his pillow lovingly and leaves a single red rose on the pillow. She then walks to Usagi's pillow and places a black rose on it. As quietly as she entered, she walks out solemn and pale. Setsuna shuts the door behind her and walks right into Usagi. Startled, Usagi asks, "Setsuna? What are doing?" Setsuna's red eyes flash. "Nothing, my Queen." She says plainly not meeting Usagi's gaze. "Setsuna, what is it? Are you all right?" Usagi places a hand on Setsuna's shoulder gently. Setsuna looks at Usagi's hand then something flashes in her eyes - regret perhaps- but it is gone too quickly. "Do not worry my Queen. Everything will be fine." She walks off and mumbles to herself, "it will all be over very soon." As she goes Usagi watches her, a confused expression on her face. ******************************** That night the Inner Senshi gather around the dinner table. They laugh and discuss things and enjoy their peaceful lives. Setsuna watches from afar. She sighs and watches their happiness, wishing she could too be happy someday. She takes a crystal white rose out of one of the vases in the hall. She stares at Usagi and grips the stem. Setsuna's eyes glare at Usagi as she laughs at Mamoru's joke. Mamoru holds Usagi's hand and they gaze lovingly into each other's eyes. Usagi slowly pulls Mamoru towards her and whispers something into his ear. He looks at her then smiles. Usagi then kisses him on the cheek and they both laugh. Setsuna watches this all with hate in her eyes. "It should be me that he looks at like that," she says to no one. "He would love me if it weren't for her...I wouldn't be alone anymore." Her hand grips the rose tighter and blood slowly drips from her hand. Setsuna doesn't notice. "Why do I have to be alone? What have I done to deserve this?" Slowly she shakes her head and scolds herself for feeling this way. "I have to be strong. I've always been the strong one." She then looks at the rose and realizes it is stained with her blood. Setsuna sighs and drops the rose. She walks silently down the hall and walks out of the palace. She walks towards the path that will take her to the high cliffs. Setsuna stands at the edge of the cliffs over-looking the ocean. Tears stream down her cheeks in waterfalls. She sways forward... 'No more pain' she thinks. 'It could all be gone'...She looks down and is just about to jump when a small hand reaches up and touches her. "Puu?" Chibi-usa's large eyes look up at Setsuna puzzled. Setsuna smiles "It is Ok Small Lady..." She kneels down and hugs Chibi-usa. "The view is just so beautiful tonight...I...I lost myself for a moment." Setsuna looks at Chibi-usa and thinks how wonderful it would be to have her as a daughter... "Oh Puu" Chibi-usa says then hugs her tighter. "Setsuna...it's a beautiful evening...isn't it?" Setsuna turns startled by the new voice and sees Mamoru. Setsuna blushes. "Yes it is...My King." "You know you don't need to call me that." He smiles at her. "Yes...I know." Setsuna was praying that the light was just dark enough to hide her blushing. Mamoru gestures to Chibi-usa and she runs to her daddy. "It's time to go in Pumpkin." Mamoru says sweetly. "I need you to go in and see your mother, she'll tuck you in then I'll come read you a bed time story." "Ok Daddy!" Chibi-Usa giggles and runs towards the palace. "Goodnight Puu!" "Goodnight my precious Small Lady!" Setsuna sighs and looks to Mamoru. "Did you need to speak to me, my King?" Mamoru pauses and then says "Yes...Usagi told me at dinner tonight that she is worried about you. She says you were acting strange today and she wanted me to talk to you." "I don't know why" she lies. "Setsuna, I know you. If anything is wrong you can tell me." 'I'm in love with you and I can't have you because you love another' she thinks. "Everything is fine." She says looking out towards the ocean. "Setsuna..."he begins. "Please, I know what to do now. Everything is really fine. I've worked it all out." Setsuna says smiling at Mamoru. "Then I'll leave it at that...for now. But if you ever need anything...Usagi and I...we both care about you...we'll help you with anything." "Small Lady is probably waiting for you, my King. Good night." Setsuna says turning her back to him. "Good night then Setsuna." He says and turns towards the palace walking back. Setsuna lets a sob escape her throat and places her face in her hands. "How can I do this? She cries. 'You want him' a voice says in her head. 'You know what you must do...it's the only way to be truly happy.' "No, I can't do this" she says quietly. 'Fine...then be alone forever...watch as everyone around you has happiness that you will never know.' Setsuna picks her head up and stares at the palace. 'You'll never be alone again...never again...' "Never again." Setsuna says and slowly turns towards the palace. ******************************** Back in the palace Usagi has just read Chibi-usa a bedtime story and is walking out of the child's room. She runs into Mamoru as he is going to say goodnight to Chibi-usa. "So...how is Setsuna...did she say anything?" Usagi questions her husband. "No...not really...but you were right. There is something wrong with her." He says. "Oh, Mamo-chan what are going to do? I hope that she isn't in danger." She says hugging Mamoru. "Don't worry Usako...we'll both talk to her tomorrow." He says holding her. "I'll be in after I say goodnight to Chibi-usa." "All right," Usagi says "but don't be too long." She smiles and walks towards their room. Mamoru is about to go into Chibi-usa's room when he hears Usagi's cries from their room. "Usako?!" He questions as he runs into their room. He sees her looking at their bed pointing to their pillows. On his he sees a red rose in full bloom, then he glances at Usagi's pillow and sees and black rose, dead and withered. Mamoru rushes to Usagi and holds her to stop her shaking. "She did this, I know she did." Usagi says holding tightly onto Mamoru. "That's why she was acting strange earlier today. Oh god...what does she mean by this?" Mamoru holds Usagi's shaking form, "I don't know. But why would she do it?" "I'm going to talk to her- right now." Usagi says pulling away from Mamoru. "No, Usako...she may be dangerous right now. I'll go." "It's not you she has the problem with...let me talk to her...maybe she's hurt by something I did...and don't worry, she's not dangerous. I trust her." Usagi looks at Mamoru who gives her an unsure look but nods his head. "Please be careful...and if you need me...just call." He looks into her eyes and sees slight fear and determination. He finally lets her go and she smiles at him and leaves to go find Setsuna. ******************************** Outside Setsuna has stopped in front of the palace. She smiles evilly to herself and waits for Usagi to come out after seeing the roses on her bed. 'Where is she?' Setsuna thinks to herself. 'She has to have seen them by now...and knowing Usagi she'll want to talk about it. We'll have such a nice talk.' Setsuna laughs to herself. "Setsuna?" Usagi calls to her. Setsuna immediately spins around to face Usagi who is coming out of the palace. "We need to talk." She says. "If I've done anything to upset you I'd like to know. You don't need to do things such as the roses." Usagi says walking closer. "I'll tell you what you've done wrong and how to fix it." Setsuna says. "You have Mamoru! That's what's wrong! If it wasn't for you he'd love me...and I wouldn't be alone!" She yells at Usagi. Usagi looks puzzled at Setsuna. "Stop acting like you don't understand me! I know you do...but that doesn't really matter. I know how to fix the problem..." "Setsuna..." Usagi says slowly moving away from her. "I...I'm sorry..." Setsuna's eyes glow red and she screams. "Temporal Fury! " Waves of temporal distortions and lighting crash into Usagi. Usagi screams and falls to the ground. She begins to get up, her eyes wide with betrayal and fear. "Setsuna..." she barely whispers. Mamoru having heard Usagi's screams comes running out. "Usako!" He yells running to her. She hold onto him for support and manages to say "Run...run, fast...get...Chibi-usa...please..." Mamoru looks to Setsuna who is glowing red with fury and power. "Move away from her Mamoru!" She screams. "NO!" He yells. "You will not do this! I won't let you do this." And he suddenly throws a rose towards Setsuna. Setsuna is too shocked to move and the rose slashes her face. Her eyes flicker, "Oh god..." she says while toughing her face. "What have I done? I...I'm not..." Then she grabs her head and her eyes flicker once more. She looks at the couple and her glare turns to ice. "No! You won't turn him against me!" She screams and blasts them both. Usagi and Mamoru are thrown back and separated. Setsuna holds out her arms and her own starseed appears in front of her and glows dark purple. Her eyes flash and the starseed blasts Usagi with tremendous force. Usagi is thrown back almost in slow motion. "USAKO!" Mamoru cries. Usagi lay motionless on the front steps to the palace. Setsuna looks upon Usagi and smiles. She walks over to her and removes Usagi's crown. Slowly and defiantly she places it on her own head. She looks over towards Mamoru who glares at her with hatred. "Damn you! Damn you to hell!" He curses her. She looks at him slightly annoyed and points her starseed at him. The light covers him and she closes her eyes. 'He loves ME now' she thinks. "Mamoru...." She whispers. Mamoru walks towards her, his eyes blank, he takes her hand and the two of them walk into the palace, leaving Usagi's body on the front steps. ******************************** With a bright light the outer senshi flash back to the present and Diana sighs. "Now you see our dilemma." She looks at Chibi-usa. Chibi-usa begins to cry softly, "Oh, Mom..." she cries. Hotaru puts her arms around Chibi-usa comfortingly. Chibi-usa looks back towards the senshi. She knew what they are all thinking. 'Setsuna must be defeated. The whole universe may be at stake.' ******************************** Well, that's it!
