Chapter 14
Crystal Echoes

Beryl was not in a good mood. Her efforts to destroy the remnants of the Moon Kingdom and revive Metallia had not been going well since the Moon Princess resurfaced. One of her Generals was dead. Another one had betrayed her. And she had very little to show for these losses. She had found one crystal which had given her significant process in restoring her master, but without the rest of the crystals from the set, that progress meant very little.

Her efforts to gain intelligence from her prisoners had amounted to nothing. Nephrite still refused to even admit his betrayal, much less admit to what information he had given up to the enemy or reveal what he knew of them. As for the Princess' sister, she hadn't revealed anything since the first time she had been restrained sufficiently to be interrogated. And that revelation only made Beryl angrier. If the prisoner was to be believed, the Moon Princess had no interest in Endymion whatsoever. But despite this, Endymion had not returned to her. He remained with the temptress who had stolen him away from her. Either the prisoner was lying, or Serenity was selfishly refusing to let go of the man she didn't want for herself.

Still, there was one lead that had the potential to bring her victory. Zoicite was searching for the remaining eight crystals that combined could possibly restore Metallia. And while he hadn't succeeded as of yet, he had been sending back a decent amount of life energy without appearing to have any difficulties with those accursed Senshi while he was at it. With all that had been going wrong lately, it was good to see that one thing was going right.

Suddenly the air resounded with the sensation of a slumbering power awakening, its power echoing like the ringing of a bell. It had been thousands of years since she had last felt this, but Beryl recognized it immediately. The Moon Princess had found the Ginzuisho, and for a brief moment had called upon its power.

This could be a calamity, or a great opportunity. Equipped with the Ginzuisho, the Senshi had the means to obliterate the Dark Kingdom. But if Beryl could seize it before they could properly bring it into play, then she could simultaneously revive Metallia and destroy the one weapon that could threaten her. But in order to do so, she had to act quickly. She called for her last available General.

"You summoned me, Your Majesty?" Kunzite inquired upon arrival.

"Send word to Zoicite. I need him to return immediately." She ordered.

"As you wish, my liege." Kunzite bowed as he backed out of her throne room.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Beryl was far from the only person to feel the Ginzuisho awakening. Most of the others lacked had no frame of reference that would allow them to understand what they had felt. They generally paused for a moment to wonder what had just happened, then shrugged and returned to whatever it was they had been doing. Four Senshi, three girls who had the potential to become Senshi but had not awakened to their powers, and one reincarnated prince felt it and knew that something wonderful had happened, even if they weren't exactly sure what. And two Moon Cats felt it and knew that one of the events that they had been working towards for the past year had finally happened.

Most of the TSAB mages also felt it. Nanoha missed it because she had literally been standing at ground zero. Fate's attention had been focused on the fact that her sister was dying (And then suddenly made a full recovery in the blink of an eye). But all the others had noticed it. And one of them could tell that whatever it had been, it had originated from a point in easy walking distance of her location.

Shamal didn't need to contact Hayate to know that she needed to figure out what had just happened. Whatever it was, it had been big, and it had apparently happened somewhere in the hospital. She didn't know the exact location, but the building wasn't that large. The search shouldn't take too much time, especially if she didn't need to search by herself. Fate was also in the hospital, and since Shamal had already treated the wounds she had received earlier in the day, she should be up to helping localize the source of the disturbance.

Finding Fate was easy. All she had to do was ask one of the nurses where Alicia had been moved to. And sure enough, there she was, clinging to her sister like a limpet while Nanoha was staring at an enormous and exquisitely carved gemstone that was probably worth more than her family's home and business combined.

And the size of it wasn't the only strange thing about it. Calling that diamond a gemstone was like calling the Book of Darkness a reference volume - technically accurate, but understating what it really was to an extreme degree. Looking at it, it seemed to Shamal that the stone was made of crystallized energy rather than carbon. It seemed that she wouldn't need Fate's help in finding the source of the disturbance. She was looking at it that very moment.

"What in the name of the Sankt Kaiser's lost Cradle is that?" She gasped.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ami had just finished her task of making sure the hospital staff believed that she had still been in the building while Sailor Mercury had been visibly chasing a youma out of the hospital and redoing the landscaping of a nearby park with a small man-made meteor and was on her way out when she felt the Ginzuisho activate. As she tried to figure out what it was that had just happened, a nurse came running up to her.

"Mizuno-san! I'm glad I caught you before you left." The nurse said.

"What's happened?" Ami asked, trying to hide her worries. The only reason the staff would want to track her down before she left was if something had changed about her mother's condition. She closed her eyes and silently prayed that it was good news.

"Doctor Mizuno just regained consciousness."

Anything else the nurse planned to say was lost as Ami spun around and dashed back to her mother's room.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Saeko Mizuno was confused. One minute she was confronting a woman who appeared to be connected to several people dying in her hospital for no reason, and the next she was waking up in a hospital bed. The last thing she remembered before waking up was feeling her strength slipping away as the woman she confronted laughed, and hearing a child screaming.

According to the nurse who came when she called for one, she had been out for days. There had been no more mysterious deaths since her attack, but there had apparently been two magical girl battles in the hospital in the past hour, one of which had started in the very room she was staying in. Considering all the publicity the Sailor Senshi had been getting - especially since they had been conclusively proven to be real - she was almost sorry she had missed that.

Was that what had happened? Had she inadvertently walked into one of the battles that the Senshi normally fought? If that was the case, then it was no wonder she had been overpowered so quickly by whatever it was that woman had done to her. Since the last three people that the woman had done that do were dead, she was lucky to be alive.

The door flew open, and Saeko saw her daughter in the doorway, catching her breath. How had Ami gotten here so quickly? She had only been awake for a few minutes. They only way she could have done that was if... she had already been in the building.

Saeko had been afraid that her relationship with her daughter had been falling apart. Her job kept her very busy, often forcing her to work longer than a normal shift. This hadn't impacted her family too greatly back when her husband was around to be with their child, but after the divorce, it meant that Ami wasn't able to spend nearly as much time with her remaining parent as she should have. After Ami had started whatever afterschool activity she had taken up the year before (Saeko had never found the time to ask her about that, with her hectic schedule), it had gotten to the point where most of times that they were both home, one or both of them was asleep. For months, virtually all communication between the two had been through notes left on the kitchen table. Saeko had been worried that Ami had begun to resent the fact that she hadn't been there for her. But Ami had been taking time from whatever she had been doing to visit her.

Her daughter still loved her. Considering how she had prioritized being a doctor over being a mother for years, that was something to cherish. She would have to make certain that she didn't lose that. She just wished that she hadn't needed to get close to death to realize what a mistake she had been making.

"Mom! You're alright!" Ami gasped.

Saeko smiled as her daughter entered the room at sat down next to her bed. Looking at teh relief in her daughter's eyes, Saeko knew that she had to say something that by rights she should have said years before.

"Ami, I'm sorry that I haven't been there for you as often as I should. I was wrong to put my work ahead of my family. Please forgive me." She said.

"Don't worry about that mom. I'm just glad to have you back."

The two sat together, having the first real mother-daughter conversation they'd had in months. Then Saeko coughed. Ami turned and picked up a pitcher of water from the end table and poured a glass. Then she frowned. Setting down the pitcher, Ami held her hand above the glass and closed her eyes.

A circle of light with a strange diagram appeared under the glass. As the diagram rotated, frost started forming on the glass. Within moments, the glass was rimmed with frost. Touching the glass, Saeko realized that the glass of what should have been room temperature water was now ice cold.

"Ami...?" Saeko whispered. "What was that?"

Ami looked at the glass as if she just realized that she had done something she shouldn't have. "Well, mom, you see..." She began sheepishly.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

At the insistence of the local doctors, Alicia would remain in the hospital overnight for observation. Given that her condition was unique even to Shamal's centuries of experience, she agreed that it was best that the girl be monitored in case her health had another unexpected change. Leaving a few monitoring spells in place to alert her if anything happened to Alicia that would require the attention of a mage, she took her other two patients back to base.

After locking the disturbingly powerful magic gemstone up as securely as could be done on short notice, Shamal had turned her attention to Nanoha. After scrutinizing her the girl's Linker Core as closely as she could for half an hour, Shamal reluctantly came to the conclusion that not only had Nanoha's actions earlier that day not damaged it in any way, the actions of her other disobedient patient had regenerated it to the point where she could barely tell that it had ever suffered the abuse that Nanoha had put it through over the past seven years.

As a result, Nanoha was cleared to fly once more. That night, as the city started to go to sleep, Nanoha summoned her Barrier Jacket. Taking Fate's hand, she called up her flight spell and launched herself into the air. Together they soared into the night sky, until the city was just a scattering of lights far below them.

"It's so beautiful up here." Nanoha mused.

"It is." Fate agreed.

"I thought I'd never be able to get up here again."

"I promised you that you'd return to the sky."

"Thank you for keeping me from losing hope, Fate."

They stood there, floating far above the city, admiring the view. As they looked down on Tokyo, an idea came to Nanoha on how to get some much-needed practice for her rusty flying skills. She allowed herself to drift almost out of arm's reach of Fate, then reached out to slap her on the shoulder.

"Tag! You're it!" She shouted, before darting into a nearby cloud.

Soon after, she heard Fate flying into the cloud after her. Nanoha dropped below the level of the cloud and flew off in a different direction from the way she entered. It didn't take too long for Fate to realize that she had left the cloud and started looking for her. Nanoha laughed as her friend spotted her and gave chase.

The game turned into a combination of tag and hide and seek. Fate had always been the faster flier, so in order to keep away, Nanoha had to use the clouds to cover her movements. But since Nanoha couldn't see where she was going in the clouds any more than Fate could, she had to leave the clouds regularly in order to get her bearings. The two darted in and out of the clouds, searching for each other and enjoying the fact that they could fly together for the first time in over half a year.

After fifteen minutes of hunting each other, Nanoha flew below a cloud, slowly rotating to see if anything was above her. Was there something dark moving in the cloud? Before she could figure out what it was, Fate dove out, tackling her and sending them both spinning down for close to a thousand feet before they stopped their descent.

The two stared into each other's eyes as they flew in each other's arms. Then their lips met.

Tomorrow they would have to worry about a war to win, a prisoner to rescue, and a system-wide calamity to avert. But tonight, they had the sky, and they had each other, and that was all they wanted.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hotaru suspected that she had been examined by every kind of medical scanning equipment available in the hospital over the course of the past twenty-four hours. Apart from her numerous prosthetics (Whose metallic components rendered the MRI scan useless), she wasn't sure that the doctors found anything. Then again, they didn't really know what they were looking for in the first place.

All the doctors knew was that her father had turned himself into a monster and had been in the process of doing the same to her. They had no idea what kind of medical side effects such a process could have on a body, so they were putting her through every test they could think of to make sure that there wasn't anything wrong with her beyond the issue which had landed her in the hospital in the first place - and which had gone away entirely after Dr Yagami and Sailor Mars had killed the monster that her father had put in her body.

Of course, as far as she was concerned, her actual problem wasn't any lingering health problems she might have had, but their origin. Her father had been trying to kill her. The loving parent who she thought had been burying himself in his work ever since her mother died only saw her as the vessel for an experiment that would have left her a prisoner in her own body as a monster used it for its own purposes, assuming it didn't kill her outright, leaving a monster with her face behind.

Perhaps that was the reason why most of her classmates hated her. The thing her father had put inside her had taken control of her body once, perhaps it had done so at other times, and made her do things to alienate her from virtually everyone she knew. If that was the case, though, she had no idea how she could possibly mend fences with them. Trying to explain that she had been possessed during whatever incidents they were angry at her for would just get them to think she was insane as well as weird.

The door to her room opened, and Hotaru's only friend walked in. It hadn't been that long ago that Hotaru had visited Alicia at the hospital to learn that her friend's only parent had killed people. Now their situations were reversed. No, her situation was worse. Precia Testarossa may have been murdering people, but she honestly thought what she was doing would help her child. Hotaru's father didn't have that excuse.

Alicia didn't speak. She didn't need to. One look in her eyes told Hotaru that she knew what had happened. She just sat by Hotaru's bedside and put an arm around her friend's shoulders. Hotaru clung to her friend and sobbed, grieving for the loss of both her family and the notion that the Tomoe household had actually been a family. Her entire life had been been turned upside down repeatedly for weeks, and right now she needed the comfort of the only person who she could truly count on after the betrayal of the previous day.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Beryl knew something was wrong when Kunzite returned alone. Where was Zoicite? Had he betrayed his queen as Nephrite had? If that was the case, her next order to Kunzite would be to bring back the prisoner in chains.

"Where is Zoicite?" She demanded as Kunzite knelt before her.

"M-my queen, I regret to inform you that your loyal servant Zoicite has died in battle against your enemies." Her general forced out the words reluctantly.

"What?! Tell me what happened!"

"His plan for gathering life energy was discovered by the Senshi. He fell in single combat with Sailor Mercury."

This couldn't be possible. Jadeite being killed by the Moon Princess was one thing - the girl had power, even if she hadn't the slightest notion as to how to use it back in the Silver Millennium, but Mercury was the weakest of the Senshi. How could she have possibly defeated one of her generals by herself?

"How?"

"Apparently she managed to crush him beneath a conjured boulder of pure ice. What remains of him is now pinned beneath the shattered fragments of the weapon that killed him in a large crater. Apparently the groundskeepers of the park in which he fell are planning to turn it into an ornamental pond." The last comment he spat out bitterly.

"What of his mission? Did he succeed in the task that I put before him before his death?"

"According to the news reports, the prisoner you had sent him to recapture had been slain by one of the Senshi's allies that same day."

That meant that the Senshi most likely had both the crystals and the Ginzuisho. Beryl's scream of rage echoed through the hall. When it died down, she noted that Kunzite had discretely left. She was about to track him down and punish him for his cowardice, but she stopped herself. She had only one loyal general left. She couldn't afford to lose him with the Senshi being so close to defeating her. Reining in her anger, Beryl started to plan.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The afternoon after the Senshi and TSAB had fought so many battles, they gathered to discuss what had happened during that very hectic day. One by one, each of the participants in the various fights described what had been going on from their perspective and what they had done in response to it.

"And then after I took down the woman who attacked the policemen, they went in and probably started looking around. Whatever they found must have been big, because within half an hour there was something like a dozen other police cars swarming around the school." Makoto reported.

"I'll say it was big," Hayate commented. "We got contacted about it this morning. Apparently the head of the school - the person who turned into the Cyclops you fought at the hospital - was performing experiments on himself, his daughter, and possibly others as part of some insane plan to feed the entire planet to some monster from the Tau Nebula. The entire school is being shut down until they can figure out if any of the other teachers are involved, and whether or not any of the other students were experimented on."

"While my sister wouldn't have been going there for a few days anyway because she's being held for observation at the hospital, it's nice to know she won't be missing classes." Fate noted. "I've already contacted my brother about the alleged monster. Hopefully he be able to get some cruisers sent to where it's supposed to be. If it's there, we'll see if it can survive an Arc En Ciel to the face."

The Senshi were relieved that this was one threat that they wouldn't have to face in person (Three of them were also privately disappointed that it hadn't been their school that had been shut down due to a police investigation). Then Rei stepped forward.

"There's something that worries me. I sensed a strange energy being awakened twice yesterday - once when trying to reach the battle with Precia, and once when heading towards the hospital. The first time it was in the general direction of where Precia was, and the second it was in the direction of where the Wolkenritter were fighting. I haven't felt that since I was just starting my miko training. The last time it had occurred was around the time of that massive storm that kicked up on the ocean with no warning seven years ago. It seemed even stronger this time, and the last time it had ended up knocking me out." Rei stated.

Fate looked sheepish. "Sorry about that."

"That was you?!"

"I was hunting the Jewel Seeds for my mo-Precia. They were all underwater, so I had no choice to but to force them to activate if I wanted to find them." Fate shuddered. "If Nanoha hadn't gone against orders to help me, I would have died."

As the Senshi absorbed yet another piece of evidence on how deep the bond between their Princess and her partner, Rei inquired "Jewel Seeds?"

Hayate raised her staff. Eight blue crystals appeared, hovering in the air for a few seconds before going back into it. "These. They're part of a set of twenty-one that Yuuno discovered seven years ago. Twelve of them are currently locked away in a secure vault somewhere in TSAB-controlled space. The problem is that we only managed to recover eight of the nine Jewel Seeds that were last seen in Precia's possession. We don't know what happened to the ninth one. If any of you see it, approach with caution and let us know. An unsealed Jewel Seed is extremely dangerous, and as far as I can tell, Hino-san is the only one of you who knows anything resembling a sealing technique."

The Senshi nodded, acknowledging the point. After that, Nanoha briefly left the room and returned holding a large crystalline flower.

"Do any of you know what this is? It appeared out of nowhere shortly after all the battles yesterday. I keep getting the feeling that I've seen it before somewhere, but I'm not sure where. All I know is that it's apparently a Lost Logia of some kind." She asked.

"Lost Logia?" Artemis gasped. "That's... that's..."

"The Ginzusho." Luna finished. "The most important of the Crown Jewels of the Royal Family and the single most important artifact of the Moon Kingdom. It can do just about anything you can imagine. With that in hand, you have to power to stop Beryl once and for all."

"Didn't several of the rulers of the Moon Kingdom die from using that?" Fate asked pointedly.

"Well, err..." Luna backtracked trying to find a way to explain that she hadn't actually been suggesting that the person who had saved Fate's life and then gone on to rescue her from an abusive family commit suicide.

"While it's nice to know that we've found this before our enemies did, I don't think I'll be using this unless it's absolutely necessary." Nanoha announced, as she called up her staff and sealed the Ginzuisho into it. "I just finished a half-year long convalescence from using too much magic, and I don't want to risk injuring myself again anytime soon.

"Now, unless there's anything else that someone wants to bring up, I think it's time we wrapped this up and started our training session."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After the debriefing ended, the Senshi went outside for a training session. Unusually, instead of remaining inside to supervise at a distance, Nanoha joined them, idly sipping on a can of juice as she did so. The barrier went up, and the Senshi transformed. Nanoha called up her Barrier Jacket, finished the juice, and threw the can in the air.

A ball of pink light appeared and flew at the falling can. The can bounced off the shot, which then turned around to strike the can. As the Senshi all watched the bouncing can,
Nanoha addressed them.

"You may be wondering why I've come out to join you." She began. "Thanks to Hotaru-chan, my Linker Core has fully recovered. Shamal cleared me to use magic again last night. As a result, I am now able to play a direct part in your training.

"While I'm doing this, please remember that I've spent more than half a year recovering from my injuries. I've probably gotten a little out of shape in that time. So take it easy on me, okay?"

As Nanoha smiled sweetly, the can went flying, ricocheted off of a telephone pole, and landed perfectly into a garbage can.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Saeko took the fish out of the oven and started setting the table. Her daughter would be home any minute now. The official reason she had decided to take a week off before returning to work at the hospital was to rest and make sure she was fully recovered, but the real reason was so that she take some time to be with her child.

She had been shocked to learn that her daughter had been one of the Sailor Senshi that had been rumored about for the past year and a half. Then she had been horrified to learn what the life of a Senshi had been like for most of that time. Her only child had been putting her life on the line several times a week for over a year, without any real training in how to protect herself or medical assistance other than Ami's limited self-trained skills. Saeko was quite frankly amazed that she hadn't ended up needing to go to the morgue to identify her daughter's body given the conditions she and her colleagues had been working in. The worst part was that throughout that entire time, she had been completely ignorant of the danger that Ami had been in. How neglectful a mother had she been to fail to notice that her only child had been in mortal peril on a regular basis for over a year?

The news that they had managed to eventually find the training and support they should have had from the start came as a great relief to Saeko, as did the fact that the Senshi appeared to finally be winning the secret war they had been fighting all this time. She was happy to hear that while Ami found the study of magic fascinating, she had had quite enough of battlefields, and was looking forward to the day when she could leave the rather dangerous life of a Senshi behind.

The door opened, and Ami staggered into the apartment.

"Ami! Are you alright?" Saeko exclaimed as the girl dragged herself to the couch.

"The princess... is... a monster." Ami gasped out.

"What happened?"

"This was the first time she was well enough to train us personally instead of just supervising. So after putting us through a grueling one-hour workout to help her get back in shape, she decided to have all of us try to hit her while she flew around firing back at us. All we had to do was hit her once to end the fight.

"It seemed so easy at first. We outnumbered her five to one. Then we found out how good she was at flying. She was practically dancing between our shots. And she had at least a dozen of pink things coming at us at all times, which kept changing direction on us. If that's what she's like when she's six months out of practice, I hope I never have to go against her when she's in her top form. If they didn't have a healer to patch us up after the fight was over, I'd be a solid bruise right now.

"It must have taken at least ten minutes of being used for target practice before we came up with a plan that actually allowed us to hit her. We ended up having Jupiter throw Venus to attack from the air while Mars, Kamen and I drew her attention.

"And while we were all fighting to keep our bodies unbruised, the princess was smiling. She was having the time of her life." Ami groaned as she accidentally put too much weight on a sore spot. "I can't wait for this war to be over."

"Are you sure you want to be doing this?" Saeko asked.

"Trust me, mom. If it was possible to walk away with a clear conscience, I think all of us would have done so months ago. I've come to enjoy learning about magic, but the fighting I can definitely live without."

Saeko helped her daughter up and got ehr to the dinner table. She, too, was looking forward to the day when her daughter no longer had to fight.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Beryl looked over the notes she had taken. Yes, this could work. This had the potential to get her everything she needed in order to revive Metallia and crush Serenity once and for all. But she had to move quickly. It was only a matter of time before Serenity gained enough control over the Ginzuisho to become a direct threat.

"Kunzite!" She called out.

Within minutes, Kunzite heard her summons and was kneeling before her.

"What is you wish, my Queen?" He asked.

"Put as much resources as you can into completing the drones currently under construction. As soon as they are ready, we strike."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A/N: Ami and Alicia actually have rather similar backgrounds. Only one parental figure in their lives (Alicia's father doesn't even rate a casual mention explaining who he is/was or why he's not part of his daughter's life), who is almost always busy with her job instead of her child. Only Saeko appears to be doing this at least partially by choice, while Precia was forced into it by the short-sighted decisions of her superiors, whose foolishness killed her daughter right at the moment she thought she'd be able to make it up to her. I wish I could have found a way to get that into the story.

To anyone speculating about whether this chapter foreshadows Alicia/Hotaru: Not in the scope of this story. If you want to speculate about what might happen ten years or so down the line, that's your own business.

I know that this chapter is a lot smaller than the previous two, but I write to the plot point, not the word count. Those last chapters were huge by my standards.

Her efforts to gain intelligence from her prisoners had amounted to nothing. Nephrite still refused to even admit his betrayal, much less admit to what information he had given up to the enemy or reveal what he knew of them. As for the Princess' sister, she hadn't revealed anything since the first time she had been restrained sufficiently to be interrogated. And that revelation only made Beryl angrier. If the prisoner was to be believed, the Moon Princess had no interest in Endymion whatsoever. But despite this, Endymion had not returned to her. He remained with the temptress who had stolen him away from her. Either the prisoner was lying, or Serenity was selfishly refusing to let go of the man she didn't want for herself.
Well, Beryl is in character - crazed stalker-bitch can't even conceive of the thought that Endymion just doesn't want her.

He will once she puts her mind control spell on him! And without the love of Sailor Moon to clear it away... ;)

Were you paying attention? This is her last big plan. After this comes the final showdown. She's not much of a threat in a direct showdown due to the lack of maneuverability and Nanaoha's sniper spells and orbital bombardment spells.

Yeah, but IIRC, in canon, Tuxedo Mask was still mind-whammied when the final battle was underway, up until Sailor Moon broke the spell with her love.

It will be replaced with Yuuno beating the hell out of Mamoru, and slapping him across the face while shouting at him to get ahold of himself. He got over Nanoha, so why can't Mamoru? Of course, when Mamoru finally snaps out of it, this will result in the two becoming epic bros who come up with awesome and hilarious horribly convoluted plans to convince girls to date them.

Somehow they don't realize that there are ALREADY women interested in them, if they would just pay more attention...

Her efforts to gain intelligence from her prisoners had amounted to nothing. Nephrite still refused to even admit his betrayal, much less admit to what information he had given up to the enemy or reveal what he knew of them. As for the Princess' sister, she hadn't revealed anything since the first time she had been restrained sufficiently to be interrogated. And that revelation only made Beryl angrier. If the prisoner was to be believed, the Moon Princess had no interest in Endymion whatsoever. But despite this, Endymion had not returned to her. He remained with the temptress who had stolen him away from her. Either the prisoner was lying, or Serenity was selfishly refusing to let go of the man she didn't want for herself.
Well, Beryl is in character - crazed stalker-bitch can't even conceive of the thought that Endymion just doesn't want her.
Seconded.
Root, I do not know who's worse between Beryl, Jail and Kirei Kotomine...
Oh poor Senshi, YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE WORST!!!
What is the worst? Nanoha, Fate and Hayate with a Triple Breaker, followed with an Arc-En-Ciel in the face (for references, see the POOOR protection program of Reinforce).
