Epilogue
She tucked in the little girl, her soft pink hair falling against the pillows. Kissing her forehead, the woman stood back up and smiled. The girl yawned, showing the tell-tale signs of being tired, yet there was still one question on her mind.
"Did the prince find his princess again, Mama?" she asked in her child-like wonder.
"Oh, I suppose so, my love," she replied back, moving to turn off the light
The little girl yawned again, her big garnet eyes staring into sapphire ones. "Such a sad ending to the story," the little girl answered.
The room was encased in darkness, the moon shinning through the large window to blanket the small girl in its glow. On the table next to her, a small soft tune played from a golden star locket. "Hmm… perhaps you are right," the woman said as she stood by the door, her slender frame taking up only a 1/3 of the space. "Shall I change the ending?"
The small girl nodded her pink head. "Yes, please Mama"
The woman stood in the darken room for a minute, thinking. "Alright, how's this sound? A thousand years passed before the princess was born again, her light hair and dark blue eyes once more coming to her features. There she grew, was loved by two parents who knew only of love before another bundle of joy came, and she was a sister to one brother. She made many friends, was late often to school-"
"Hehe, like me…." the little girl giggled happily.
The older woman laughed. "Yes, very much like you." She continued on with her story. "-and it was on one of these late morning dashes to school, that she found three little boys torturing a small black cat."
"Poor neko," the small girl frowned as she spoke, her 5 year old voice bell-like in the silence.
The older woman laughed softly. "But the girl saved the kitty, my love," she said as she stared at her bundle of joy. So much had happened for her to be born. "She took the small black cat home, and cared for it. Upon doing so, the girl found out that she was the champion of love and justice-"
"Sailor Moon!"
She laughed, watching as her daughter jumped up, wonder in her bright red eyes. "And we all know the story of Sailor Moon, don't we? How she defeated the Dark Kingdom, and all the others to come behind them. How she fell in love, once more, with her handsome prince; and found that the greatest power in this universe is to treasure your friends and family."
"Telling the tale of Sailor Moon again, are we?" a man's voice sounded from behind her. The older woman turned, a smile coming to her lips as she stared at her handsome husband of nearly 6 years. "She never tires of that story, does she?"
"No, she doesn't," she said. Going once more to her daughter, the older woman bent over and kissed her forehead, the small golden crescent moon shining softly in the darkness before pulling the covers up once more and tucking in the small child. "However, tis time for bed and our little one should be sleeping."
"I love you, Mama and Papa," the girl whispered, closing her eyes. Her father stepped into the room, brushing the light pink bangs back from her forehead, kissing her crescent moon. "Night."
"Good-night, my Small Lady," he said as he took her mother's hand and lead her out into the hallway, their footfalls silent on the marble flooring. Pulling her along with him, he lead her further away from their daughter's bedroom and closer to theirs. However, just before they were to turn down the hall that would take them to their suite; he turned and she followed wordlessly into the darken gardens.
"Where we first met," she chuckled softly. "I'll never forget, no matter how many lifetimes we go through, that day in the gardens."
He smiled, his cobalt eyes shinning in the moonlight. His black hair was turning lavender with age, but she found him to be more handsome than ever. "Sitting in the dirt, playing with flowers," he said, a hint of teasing in his voice. "Just like you to be more concerned with the flowers than that you were getting your dress dirty." Thinking of their daughter, sleeping down the hall, he grinned. "Do you think she'll ever figure out you're telling her the story of us? And that you were Sailor Moon?"
"I suppose so, one day. Until then, I will keep telling it to her. Perhaps, she'll find a love all her own one day; and will not have to go through what we did," she retorted, a smile on her face. "Besides, if I hadn't been sitting there, playing with the roses, I wouldn't have met you."
"Hmm… Perhaps, but that was eons ago," he replied with a kiss to her lips. She melted against him, her sighs turning into soft moans of desire. Pulling her down with him, he slowly begin to remove her gown, pulling the cups of her bodice down over her breasts, exposing them to the night air.
She giggled, laughter sounding up into the sky. Bringing his face back to hers, she kissed him with passion. "I love you, Endymion," she moaned on a sigh.
He brushed his lips down her shoulder, kissing her skin. "I love you, Serenity," he said, his lips moving down her shoulder to her breast, her pink nipple hard with desire. Just before he captured it in his mouth, he moved his eyes to look up at her, a smile on his lips. "I will love you for all of eternity and beyond, tis a promise."
"A promise, and one that I'll hold you to…"
The End
Wow, its done. Someone asked me if I was going to do a sequal to this story, and the answer is no. I don't need to. We all know the story of Tsukino Usagi and how she became Sailor Moon, fighting for love and justice. I don't need to retell it.
