A New Beginning
Epilogue, A New Beginning:
They all ran into the battle that was quickly being lost
by the dwindling Moon Kingdom army. \"Jupiter Thunder Crash!\" Sailor
Jupiter yelled.
\"Venus Crescent Beam Smash!\"
\"Mercury Bubbles Blast!\"
\"Mars Fire Ignite!\" Skirts of various colors blurred
together.
\"Where is Sailor Moon?\" Jupiter shouted.
\"She was just training with us,\" Mercury said in confusion.
\"We have to go back and get her!\" Mars yelled.
\"No!\" Sailor Venus, their elected leader, screamed. \"We have
to keep fighting. She will probably come shortly, and besides they
desperately need us!\"
\"All right!\" Jupiter and Mercury shouted. Mars reluctantly
followed orders, all of them deeply worried inside though about
Princess Serena.
Luna and Artemis glanced at each other. \"I will stay with
the warriors and help them out as best as I can,\" Artemis said.
\"You can go look for Princess Serena if you like.\"
Luna nodded her head. \"Good plan,\" she acknowledged as she
ran off in search of Serena.
Princess Serena had been trapped by Queen Beryl.
Queen Beryl floated in front of her. Prince Darien found
his love and jumped in front of her protectively.
Queen Beryl spoke. \"Why don\'t you join me Darien? As you
see we are on the brink of winning this war. So join the winning
side and be King by my side.\"
\"Never you twisted snake,\" Darien spat out.
She growled and sent Darien up in a swirling cloud of wind.
Princess Serena ran to join him. \"No Serena!\" he screamed.
She took no heed of what he said and jumped into the wind,
getting closer to him. Each had his or her arms outstretched. \"No
Darien. I want to be with you!\" she shouted desperately, her love
shining through her terrified eyes.\"
They grabbed hands for a moment before Queen Beryl shot
another rip of power at them, seperating them. They screamed in
pain and loss.
Meanwhile at the forefront of the Dark Kingdom army stood
Malachite, Zoicite, Nephrite, and Jadaeite. Jadaeite shot at Sailor
Mars who had been distracted by Luna running off to get Serena.
Sailor Mars screamed, and she weakly stood up and sent her fire
power back at him. He easily diverted it and threw her to the
ground, bombarding her with attacks. She gave one more weary scream
as she died.
\"MARS!!\" JUpiter shouted in horror. She shot at Jadaeite,
and at that instant Nephrite attacked her from behind. She was
lying on her stomach on the ground as he sucked all her energy out
of her body and died.
\"JUPITER!\" Sailor Venus shouted as Mercury got out her
scanner, hurriedly looking for any weaknesses on the four army
leaders. \"Venus Crescent Beam Smash!!\" Venus screamed. She screamed
again in pain as Malachite sent it right back at her.
Zoicite quickly attacked the distracted Sailor Mercury.
Malachite and Zoicite combined their powers to kill Venus and
Mercury in one hit. Venus whimpered and Mercury moaned as their
lives passed before their eyes, and they both lay dead on the
ground.
Queen Serenity ran up to see her army, the four sailor
soldiers, as well as Serena and Darien all dead. She ran up to
Serena and Darien, floating dead in the air. Tears were falling out
of Serena\'s eyes. Queen Serenity knelt down. \"Noo,\" her heartbroken
voice rasped. She narrowed her eyes in determination and got ready
to do the only thing that could save them.
\"No Queen you will die,\" Luna said upon realizing what the
Queen planned to do.
\"It does not matter. I must do this if they are all to have
a life as they deserve,\" Serenity said quietly.
She put the crescent moon wand in the air and let her
determination and power flow through it to allow them to be reborn
on Earth many years later with a new life without her. She silently
wished that Amy would have a father that did not emotionally abuse
her, that Raye would have parents that did not beat her, that Mina
would not be molested at a young age, and that Lita\'s father would
not hurt her mother. She wished that Michelle got non-traditional
parents and that Amara had a good mother, that Hotaru\'s parents
would not neglect her, and that Trista\'s mother would not
molest her. Of course she did not realize Trista was standing at
the time gate and was not to die or get reborn. She also wished
that Serena\'s father did not die. She hoped they would have better
lives this time around but sent them with their sailor powers
since she knew she was unfortunately sending Queen Beryl and her
minions with them. She lay down in exhaustion and said goodbye to
Luna and Artemis after making Luna promise to look after her
daughter. She closed her eyes for the last time, the dead Moon
Kingdom imprinted in her weary soul.
The End
Author\'s note-This ends the second story in a series of four
stories.
Another note-What Princess Raye experienced is called physical
and emotional abuse. In fact all other forms of
abuse: physical, verbal, and sexual are all automatically
also emotionally and psychologically abusive though emotional
abuse can also exist on its own without any of the other three.
In my opinion and from some experience, the emotional and
psychological abuse is the aspect of all the forms of child abuse
that is the most damaging. The physical wounds will
usually disappear. Sometimes right away, and sometimes not for a
long time. On some occasions never at all, but the physical
pain from the wound will be gone even then. The emotional abuse
that always accompanies this physical abuse is the part that
causes the physical abuse to affect the child throughout his/her
adult life long after the physical wounds have healed. Here is
the definition of child physcial abuse: \"Physical abuse - Any
non-accidental injury to a child. This includes hitting, kicking,
slapping, shaking, burning, pinching, hair pulling, biting,
choking, throwing, shoving, whipping, and paddling.\"
The vague references to Princess Amy\'s fear of her father and his
mistreatment of her are intended to show her as a victim of his
emotional abuse which is defined as: \"Emotional abuse - Any
attitude or behavior which interferes with a child\'s mental health
or social development. This includes yelling, screaming,
name-calling, shaming, negative comparisons to others, telling them
they are \"bad, no good, worthless\" or \"a mistake\". It also includes
the failure to provide the affection and support necessary for the
development of a child\'s emotional, social, physical and
intellectual well-being. This includes ignoring, lack of appropriate
physical affection (hugs), not saying \"I love you\", withdrawal of
attention, lack of praise, and lack of positive reinforcement.\"
Prince Darien also experienced emotional abuse. There is a common
misconception that men can\'t be victims of emotional abuse or any
kind of abuse, especially as an adult which simply isn\'t true.
What Princess Lita experienced was another form of child emotional
abuse because she saw her mother beat constantly by her father.
When her father did this, it damaged her as much if not more than
it damaged the mother whom he was actually hitting and calling names.
Princess Mina experienced child sexual abuse at the hands of her
father\'s guards. This is defined as: \"Sexual abuse - Any sexual act
between an adult and child. This includes fondling, penetration,
intercourse, exploitation, pornography, exhibitionism, child
prostitution, group sex, oral sex, or forced observation of sexual
acts.\"
Princess Trista also experienced child sexual abuse at the hands
of her mother. There is a common misconception that women can\'t
sexually abuse as well as that men can\'t be victims of sexual
abuse. Both are simply not true. Women can take that overpowering
position as well, and it is an added pain for the survivor to
have another misconception to deal with. Men often stay silent
thinking it makes them less \"manly\" and women stay silent too
no matter who their abuser was but especially if it was a woman
because that is seen as impossible and doesn\'t fit in with our
images of women or mothers. Just as it doesn\'t fit in with our
images of men to see them as victims, but those misconceptions
need to be thrown out the window.
Princess Hotaru experienced neglect. This is the definition:
\"Neglect - Failure to provide for a child\'s physical needs. This
includes lack of supervision, inappropriate housing or shelter,
inadequate provision of food, inappropriate clothing for season
or weather, abandonment, denial of medical care, and inadequate
hygiene.\"
What Princess Michelle and Princess Amara experienced were the
unaccepting, close-minded attitudes of their parents and that
is in my opinion another form of emotional abuse by not
accepting them for the people they are. No one asks to be born
gay or lesbian. It would be a lot easier for people not to be
gay, so why can\'t people accept that it\'s not a choice but
rather just a part of who the person is? It is natural that
many parents may not be accepting at first due to the beliefs
society places on it, but if the parent continually degrades
the child and/or forbids the child to be him or herself then it
is emotional abuse in my opinion.
