The heir to the thrones of Uranus and Neptune has returned…
“Open the gates!”
“Kaiya!”
“Sis!”
A dark haired figure ran forward and embraced the other girl.
“I missed you.” Both of them cried in each other’s arms.
“…I missed you too.”
The Council of Planetary Rulers and the Queen of Crystal Tokyo unanimously ruled that all first born heirs of each royal family to report for training on Crystal Tokyo under the guidance of Sailor Pluto, the guardian of time.
To meet each other…
“My name is Kino Kiyoshi. I am the heir to the thrones of Mercury and Jupiter. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance miss…?”
Kino Kiyoshi, a quiet girl with long chestnut colored hair that was kept up in a bun and had sparkling blue eyes.
“Tenoh Kaiya. I am the heir to the thrones of Uranus and Neptune. It is also a pleasure to make your acquaintance.”
“Never mind her!” Someone pushed the other girl away. “I’m just glad that there’s someone else who’s decently ‘normal’ around here. I’m the heir to the throne of Venus and Mars, Hino Nozomi. Nice to meet ya!” She extended her hand and grinned.
Hino Nozomi, an impulsive girl with long dark brown hair and amethyst eyes. Is she who she really says she is?
“Normal?”
“You know, someone who had a mother and an actual father. Not some woman substitute.”
The room temperature suddenly dropped. Kaiya walked past the extended hand without meeting the girl’s gaze and said, “Sorry, both of my parents are female. You’re on your own there.” She walked up to the other woman who had been pushed away and gave the shorter girl a warm smile. “It was Kiyoshi wasn’t it?”
To awaken their powers…
TUP!
Nozomi dashed forward with her eyes full of anger. “Who said that you’re our leader?” She demanded.
“No one did.” Kaiya replied in a flat tone as she jumped back from the attack.
“Then what ARE you saying?”
“I’m saying that you’re not thinking straight and are attacking in a blind rage. World…SHAKING!”
WHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIR-KABLAM!
To learn their duty…
Pluto hit her garnet rod’s hilt on the tiled cement floor. “All the planet rulers are on Pluto and are currently holding back the negative force. You will all be in charge of your respective planets and are to keep the order among your people amidst the current chaos until we can formulate a way to defeat our foe.”
“What? BUT THEY’RE JUST KIDS!” A servant cried out.
“Speak for yourself.” Nozomi huffed. “But you might have to worry about the young ‘uns over there.” She jerked a finger at Kaiya and Kiyoshi.
“Silence!” Pluto commanded.
Where some must regain the respect of their people…
In the palace of Uranus
Kaiya seized the general and army commander’s collar. “I SAID get them out of there! I will not have my men left to die in a meaningless battle!”
“B-But your majesty! Who will defend our planet from their army if not the troops? There are practically at our doorstep!”
“I said. Pull. Them. Out!” She released him from her grip and began to walk out of the throne room.
“Are you going to surrender?” He called out desperately. He knew it, he shouldn’t have trusted this…this…
Kaiya stopped mid-step and turned at the doorway, looking extremely angry. “We will not surrender! I WILL DEFEND THIS PLANET!”
Where they all willmeet on the battlefield…
Plip. Plip.
“Hah…hah…” Kaiya gripped harder onto her spear, the chains circling above and posed to strike at the army of mortal men. It had been an hour since she had entered combat. Only recently had her helmet had been knocked off, showing the visible perspiration streaming down the sides of her face. Blood stained her blue and gold armor. If she were not the heir and had the powers she did, many would have mistaken the girl to be a regular soldier.
“What’s the matter? Your army won’t fight for you?” Amethyst eyes glared back at her, taunting her opponent.
“It’s not their battle! This should only be between you and me! We shouldn’t be fighting anyway! Wha-What are you thinking Nozomi?”
“My orders.”
TWEEEET!
“Line up men!”
Kaiya spun around to see Uranus and Neptune soldiers marching up in rows. The sight was truly something to behold. They all wore similar armor to Kaiya’s and each carried a spear, facing skyward as they were being lead by the general she had berated only a few hours earlier.
“What are you doing?” She demanded.
“Fighting for our planet and…for our leader. We will not let you fight this alone, regardless of your orders my majesty!” The middle-aged man gave a deep bow.
“Neither will we leave a comrade in need.” A quiet voice echoed through the battlefield.
“Kiyoshi?” Kaiya turned to see the quiet heir as they walked onto the battlefield, adorned in battle armor as well. She was followed by a large mass of Mercury and Jupiter’s soldiers.
“Allies?”
“They actually came?” A few of Kaiya’s soldiers muttered.
“Will you let us help?” Kiyoshi extended her hand out to the blood-covered heir of Uranus and Neptune.
You guys…Kaiya’s hands shook at her sides. Everyone… “Of course!” Instead of the handshake Kaiya thought it would be Kiyoshi instead gave her a warm hug. Soldiers from both sides cheered for their leaders and their new united front.
“RAAAAAAAAAH! RAAAAAAAAAH!” They cried. Many had begun to pound the hilts of their spears into the ground, heightening the tension of the already tense atmosphere.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
“Looks like the crybaby decided to come out of hiding and fight after all.” Nozomi muttered with an amused expression.
Until it comes down to the end…Fate, destiny, will one choose their future or does the future already have something in store for them all…?
Until we meet again…
“It’s the King and Queen!”
I’m sure…we’ll meet her again someday.
DOOOOOM
