By Miaka Hime
Konnichiwa minna-chan this will be the last chapter and me and my muse, Yousei are kind of sad.
Yousei: *burst out crying* I can't believe this is the end!
I want to take the time to say thank you to all those who reviewed and kept me going, and now to thank individual reviewers
Anime Princess/Samantha- You REALLY kept me going! And I loved your reviews!
CountryGirl-chan- Thanks for reviewing me!! I don't think she reviewed more then once, but I'm a fan of her stuff so I felt privileged ^.^
denichiba- I'm not thanking you, but I'm going to yell at you because if you had read the author notes you'd know that I spell Hiiro's name like this, so go back and check my author notes from previous chapters and it will tell you WHY I chose to spell it that way. But thanks for reviewing anyway. ^.^
Ok, now that that's out, I want you to start reading the final chapter of 'The Other Soldier'
Disclaimer- I do not own Sailor Moon or Gundum Wing.
Yousei: *burst out crying again when she sees the disclaimer*

Usagi awoke to someone shaking her awake. She recognized the blurry image immediately. "W-What happened?" She asked. "You were passed out when I got here, where's Gin?" Hiiro asked. "What time is it?" She asked. "Eleven PM." He answered. Usagi tried to stand but her legs gave way. "I think I used too much energy." She said. "Energy? On what?" Usagi gasped and began to look frantically around. "Where is it?" She said feeling around her until her hand fell on the small gem. She quickly picked it up and held it to her chest protectively. "Let's go." Usagi said, again trying to stand, but this time she was able too for about ten seconds before she pitched forward and Hiiro caught her right before she hit the hard ground. "Forget about your energy loss?" He asked. Helping her stand. Usagi growled at her own weakness and let Hiiro support her as they walked back to their dorms.
Once they reached Usagi's dorm, she gave him a quick peck on the cheek before summoning what little strength she had and walked into her dorm before collapsing on her bed. "Tired?" Usagi snapped her head up to see Hotaru sitting on her bed reading a book. "Hai, I had to reform Gin, my gundum, back into the ginzoushou." Hotaru gasped. "Gin was the ginozushou?" She asked in disbelief. "Hai. Now if you don't mind I need some sleep." Usagi promptly passed out again.
Usagi awoke at one thirty, a familiar chill seemed to be all around her making her shiver. "This isn't good." She whispered through clenched teeth. Usagi slowly crept out of bed and changed into some fresh clothes before waking Hotaru.
"Hime? Why is it so cold?" Were the first words that left Hotaru's mouth. "Chaos is near." Usagi said in a monotone. Hotaru's eyes turned hard, she was ready for a battle. "Let's awaken the others, they need to henshin." Usagi said throwing some clothes at Hotaru who quickly changed. "I'll go awaken the senshi, you work on waking the others." Hotaru said. Usagi nodded and took off for Hiiro's dorm.
As soon as her hand reached for the doorknob the door was opened by Hiiro. "Hii-kun" She whispered. "Chaos?" He questioned. Usagi nodded. "I'll wake the others, you go help Hotaru awake the senshi." He said making his way to Duo's dorm. Usagi nodded and headed toward the Star lights dorm. She quickly began banging loudly until a ruffled Yaten opened the door. "Do you have any idea what time it is?" Yaten growled, obviously angry for the rude awakening. "Shut up, chaos is here, wake the others." Usagi said. "We're already up." Taiki said coming up from behind Yaten. "Hurry up and get dressed." Usagi said in a monotone. "I have to go wake up Mamoru baka, tell the others to meet me where you feel Chaos's energy signal is strongest." Usagi said quickly before running down the hall.
Usagi reached Mamoru's place in five minuets but his room mate said he'd gone out to a bar with a bunch of friends and wasn't expected back until morning. Usagi wasn't able to find out what bar it was or where he was going to be staying, so she just figured it for the best. Roses probably wouldn't do much to Chaos anyway.
After she'd left the campus she quickly began feeling for the energy of chaos and followed it to a local park. "Figures it'd be a park." She mumbled to herself. Usagi's legs finally carried her to a clearing in the park where there were gardens and she was glad to see the senshi and gundum pilots awaiting her instructions. Once she was with the group Usagi felt Chaos's energy level rise.
"Minna henshin yo!" Usagi said while she transformed into Eternal Sailor Moon. The others quietly complied whispering their transformation phrases in fear that Chaos would appear if they were too loud, even if it was silly of them.
As soon as the senshi had all transformed the gundam pilots took attack stances. "These readings are through the roof, it seems Chaos should be right in front of us." Mercury said typing furiously on her hand held computer. Moon's eyes narrowed and she looked in the direction of where chaos should have been, she suddenly felt like gasping, when she realized that Chaos didn't have one energy signature, but two. Chaos had possessed another body. "Endymion." Moon yelled out. "Come out of your hiding spot." She said in an icy voice. Causing many of the senshi to gasp out loud. "I didn't think you'd catch on so quickly hime." The smooth voice of Endymion said.
Endymion not Mamoru walked out of the shadows twirling an ebony rose between his fingers. "You know I loved you." Endymion said picking a piece of imaginary lint off of his shining armor. "Key word, loved." Moon said in a monotone, she wasn't about to let her guard down. "Ah, but Mamoru, still loves you. He was the hard one to corrupt. Endymion loves the past you, Serenity. He knows you will never be the innocent Serenity was." Moon nodded. "I have been reborn too many times to be her." Endymion smirked evilly. "Mamoru was destroyed in your past life if you remember. Your little moon kitty told you he wouldn't be reborn, do you remember that?" Usagi then realized what had been done. Chaos had taken over Endymion's body and therefor had made him be reborn. "Chaos didn't take this body until recently, but Chaos did make sure that we were reborn, even if we weren't supposed to." Moon nodded. "We might as well get this over with, one of us is going to die tonight Endymion and I'm hoping it's not me." Endymion smirked. "We don't have to fight you know. You could just become my lover and no one would have to be hurt." Moon shook her head. "Iie." She said in a monotone.
She sneaked a look at Hiiro to see his fist clenched in anger, the rest of his body showed no emotion. Moon looked at her senshi and realized she didn't want them to be hurt but this was the only way.
Moon suddenly let her snow white wings unfold and she jumped into the air and threw the first blast from her tiara not even bothering to call out her attack phrase. Endymion deflected the attack easily and threw a dozen ebony roses that soon turned into dark energy which grazed her side causing it to sting instantly. Endymion smiled and looked at her senshi and the gundam pilots. He suddenly nodded to an unknown force and dozens of youma began to materialize behind him. That was when the war began.
~*~*~*~*
Moon soon lost track of her senshi and the others in the swarm of youma, every now and then she's see a blast of an attack from one of them but she was in too heated a battle to not pay attention to the task at hand. She knew she wasn't going to last much longer, Endymion had a lot more energy then her and it was starting to show, for he only had a burned arm from one of her attacks and a few scrapes on his face.
Moon however had a broken wing, a few bruised ribs, a dislocated shoulder, and many deep wounds from Endymion's roses all over her body. She hadn't used the ginzoushou, and she knew she was going to have to use it soon or she and her senshi were goners, even with their extensive training, there were just too many youma.
Moon threw another attack knowing he was trying to wear her out but not caring. It hit him squarely in the chest knocking him down. Moon would have yelped for joy had she not been a perfect soldier, and throwing an attack at a youma that was trying to sneak up on her.
By the time the youma was blasted Endymion was up again, he was hurt just as badly as she was now, and that was when she heard a new attack. "Dead Scream." The attack phrase was said softly but it blew a chunk of youma away. The table's had turned.
The youma slowly were beaten down and soon the only one left standing was Endymion, six senshi, and two gundam pilots, senshi and pilots had either been knocked unconscious or were in no condition to fight.
Endymion gathered up energy and threw it at the remaining senshi, Neptune and Maker took most of the blast. There were now only three senshi standing, one of which was a very pissed off Uranus.
"World Shaking!" Uranus threw her attack barely missing Endymion. Moon seeing him move to the side, his eyes still on Uranus threw a blast at him but was stopped as he threw one at her that was no match for hers, causing her to fall at the feet of Sailor Jupiter in a broken mess.
"This isn't how it was supposed to end." Jupiter said stooping down and holding her princess. "How the hell do we expect to beat him?" Duo asked threw clenched teeth while holding an injured shoulder. "You don't." Moon suddenly said opening her eyes a crack. "I do." Moon slowly stood much to Jupiter's protest. She took a quick look at Hiiro before she did what she knew would make her senshi happy. She smiled, a true smile that lit up her entire face and eyes. "Don't worry. I always said that I'd always protect my friends, ne Mako-chan? You remember right?" Jupiter smiled at her nick name and nodded. "We were supposed to protect you, remember?" Moon shook her head. "Iie, I will always protect you." With this said she turned quickly toward Endymion. "You want a fight ass hole, you got it." Moon threw out her hands that cupped the floating, glowing jewel that was the ginzoushou. "Ginzoushou, kill this prick, MOON CRYSTAL POWER!" The crystal's dull light that it had been putting off suddenly became blinding and most of it was coming from Moon herself as she poured her life energy into the small gem. "Iie! IIE SENENITY HIME! DON'T BE STUPID!" Fighter screamed out in frustration, knowing what was to happen. Pluto put a hand on Fighter's shoulder and shook her head, telling her not to stop Eternal Sailor Moon.
They all turned to Moon only to see her senshi fuku grew into a white satin gown. The moon insignia on her forehead gave a soft glow and soon the blinding power and energy the crystal had been collecting shot out at Endymion, where he let out a piercing scream.
The senshi winced at the bright light and knew that if Serenity used all her power she was going to die, so it was only natural to begin pooling their energy as well into the gem.
"Duo, Hiiro, concentrate on the ginzoushou and send you energy into it, she'll use all of her own energy if you don't!" Jupiter screamed to the two dumbfounded pilots.
Now knowing what to do the two remaining pilots let their energy flow with Serenity's into the ginzoushou until Endymion's body fell to the ground and the blinding light desisted.
Moon then fell to the ground, the white gown fading to a fuku that then unraveled into her black zip up cat suit that she wore on missions. Her hair unraveled from its buns into a tight braid and her body fell limply to the ground. "Hime." Pluto breathed looking at her fallen princess.
Hiiro was quick to react unlike the others who were in shock over the events that had just occurred. He quickly bent down next to his fallen lover and grabbed her wrist almost afraid to check to see if she was still alive but he put two shaking fingers to her and checked for a pulse.
A few moments of silence. "I-Is she" Neptune said from Uranus's arms. "She has a pulse it's weak, she needs medical attention." Hiiro's voice cracked slightly showing a bit of emotion causing Duo's eyes to widen. "Hey man, are you ok?" He said putting a hand on his friends shoulder which was quickly shaken off. "I'm fine, just call a damn ambulance already!" He yelled at his startled friend who quickly limped off in search of a pay phone.
~*~*~*~*
Usagi awoke in a cold white room. She saw Hiiro asleep in the chair on her left and Michiru asleep in the bed next to her. Usagi slowly sat up and realized most of her cuts had been healed already, thanks to the ginzoushou being in the form it was. Usagi slowly let her hand move a lock of hair out of Hiiro's eyes careful not to wake him, but obviously not careful enough for his eyes snapped open the moment her hand started back to her side.
"You should be resting." He said in his infamous monotone. Usagi shrugged. "Is he" Hiiro shook his head. "Iie, you drove Chaos out of him, it's gone now. He's barely alive but Ririna for some odd reason came here to look for me and has been watching him ever since. I think she's found a new object to fawn over." Usagi smiled and laid back down. "Yokata, he needs someone that will truly care for him." Hiiro suddenly looked down at the tile floor. "Usa why did you use it if you knew" Usagi realized instantly what he was trying to say. Why had she used the ginzoushou when she knew that he loved her and would probably die without her. "It was something that had to be done Hii-kun. No matter what. I had to save this world I've always saved this world without a second thought. Gomen if it offends you." Hiiro shook his head. "Iie, it doesn't. I trust your judgement and I'll protect it with you if it's something you care for." Usagi smiled again and took his hand in hers and leaned forward and received a soft kiss.
Usagi broke contact with Hiiro and looked toward the door when she heard a male giggle. "So Hiiro does have emotions." Usagi gave a laugh at Duo, who was leaning toward the door frame, Hotaru was behind him trying to be discrete about her right hand enter twined with his left. "Oh oh oh, looks like Hota-chan's been secretive as well." Usagi said propping up her chin on her hands with a knowing smirk.
Hotaru blushed slightly as Duo kissed her cheek. "Yup! And she's all mine unless I can share with you Hiiro?" Duo said with a suggestive grin. "Omae o korosu." Hiiro and Usagi said in unison, although Usagi's 'Omae o korosu' wasn't as effective considering her guns weren't with her. Although Hiiro's Omae o korosu wasn't that effective either, it was probably Hotaru's smack upside the head that did the trick. "Sorry, sorry, It was a joke I swear!" Hiiro let a small smirk escape him. Usagi gave him a peck on the cheek. "That's right, I'm all his."
~*~*~*~*
A after the war with OZ they achieved peace and Usagi was later the founder of Crystal Tokyo and became queen. Usagi gave birth to twins on her twenty second birthday, a boy and a girl who's father was none other then the ex-gundam pilot of Wing Zero and the king of Crystal Tokyo. They named their daughter Usagi and son Juro.
The other senshi eventually found loves in their lives and it is rumored throughout the palace that Sailor Saturn or Hotaru Maxwell has been seen very pregnant walking through the gardens with her husband Duo Maxwell (AN- *Grins widely*)
Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus, or Michiru Tenou and Haruka Tenou have been married although some people found it odd for the two women to marry. They adopted a little girl and named her Kyoko.
Lastly Mamoru Chiba and the Ririna have recently had a baby boy they named Yasuo and they are now on ok terms with the Queen although there are rumors that Mamoru gets a nasty bullet wounds in his leg when the king gets pissed but that's another story.
~*~ The End ~*~
WAA HOO! I'M DONE!! NO MORE OF THIS ANYMORE!! YEAH!! *sniff* I'm kinda going to miss writing in this one But that's alright I suppose cause I have a lot of stories I'm writing right now, including some Hiiro/Usa romances. One is called Naisai and the other is called Serenity, so check those out if you're interested in reading more of my stuff! Also check out some of my Sailor Moon stuff, I like to write regular Sailor Moon fiction that's not centered around Usa-chan, although there's only two posted that is not Usa based ^.^ Also their kind of old and have Usa with Mamoru baka but their still good and could use some reviews. Anywhoo, I'd like to now thank everyone that had read to the very end of 'The Other Soldier' and I hope it wasn't disappointing. I tried to make everything happy in the end and Hiiro is a bit OOC but I think he has reason to be so yeah! Oh and on a last note, Yasuo, the name that Mamoru and Ririna named their child, it means peaceful so I found it quite fitting ne? Anywhoo, please read and review my other stories! ARIGATOU MINNA-CHAN!
