The Era of Apocalypse
X-Men and Sailor Moon Crossover
Chapter 3
The Battle of the Princesses
Sailor Moon felt the pain of the cuts on her chest, but in her heart other pain, much greater than this was making her cry, her future daughter, the only person in the world besides Darien for which she will gave her life, attacked her, she couldn’t believe it, if fact she didn’t wanted to believe it.- She tried to stand up but the pain was too hard and she felt dizzy, she falled to her knees and Professor Xavier ordered Rogue to take her back to the Black Bird, then he ordered the X-Men and the other scouts to go back as well.- But when they were heading for the ship, a huge man came out of nowhere and captured Sailor Mars, he puted his big hand over her mouth before she could call for help, then she saw a woman in a white and blue dress approach and when it passed beside, her amazement didn’t knew any limits when the woman just transformed...into her, suddenly she felt a needle in one of her arms and seconds later blackness.
Back on the hotel, Sailor Moon was placed on a bed and Jean along with Rogue started to work on the injuries she suffered, after a few minutes of treatment, they gave her a sedative that made fall asleep, then they lefted her alone.- Minutes later Sailor Mars entered the room.
-haha...my master will be pleased...the leader of the Sailor Scouts killed by one of her own friends...MARS FIRE ! !
-STOP RIGHT THERE SAILOR MARS ! ! ! JUPITER THUNDER ! ! CRASH ! !
But before the lighting bolt could reach it’s target she disappeared.
-DOUBLE CROSSER ! ! I SWEAR I’LL KILL YOU SAILOR MARS ! !
Meanwhile in Apocalypse’s ship Sailor Mars was held in a cell, suddenly she heard a door opening, and saw Cerise walking towards her.
-Renee ! ! !
For any answer she created an energy dagger that she throwed at Sailor Mars hitting her on her left leg.
-Next time you call me Renee I will aim for your heart you understand that ?
-Enough my child.
-Father Apocalypse...I was only teaching her a lesson.
-It looks like you have meeted my daughter, Sailor Mars
-SHE IS NOT YOUR DAUGHTER YOU FILTHY MONSTER ! ! !
He didn’t answered her, he just pointed his finger to the dagger that was sticked on the girl’s leg directing a bolt of energy to it.- He stood there along with his daughter watching the girl scream in pain until she passed out, then both lefted.- Meanwhile on the hotel, Sailor Mercury entered the room where Sailor Moon was and found her leader standing in the window looking at the stars, but when she walked towards her she saw the tears on her eyes.
-Are you OK Serena ?
-Ami, everything around me is falling apart.....first my future daughter attacks me...then one of my friends double crosses me....what am I doing wrong ?
-Nothing of this is your fault Serena, Renee is under the power of that evil creature, remember when she was Black Lady ? She...
-This time is different Ami...when she was Black Lady and attacked me I could see in her eyes that she didn’t wanted to hurt me...this time I only saw hate and evil on them...
-We will save her Serena, believe me, and we will find out why Sailor Mars betrayed us, I know her Serena, I know that she likes you and that if she did what she did it was for a very powerful reason.
-Ami, I don’t know what I could you without you, I wish I could be as wise and smart like you.
-You have something greater than wisdom and intelligence, you have love and a heart that can forgive anything to anyone.
In Tokyo’s cemetery Logan was in front of Haruka’s tomb, in his mind the images of the young woman healing his injuries, the kiss she gave him, appeared again and again, until he heard someone crying, he turned around and saw Michiru with her violin, she was on her knees, he walked towards her.
-You were really close friends weren’t you ?
-You...you...don’t know....we were more than friends...we were...like sisters...we did everything together...why...why did this happened ?
-Sometimes life is unfair girl...sometimes you wish you have the power to change the past...but then you realize that you can’t...
-I wanted to play our favorite song....but...but...knowing that she can’t hear it anymore...it’s too painful...
-She can hear you...no matter where she is now...she can.
With this words, she stood up and started to play a song so beautiful that Logan couldn’t believe it was coming from her hands.
The next day Professor Xavier ordered his team and the Sailor scouts to prepare to a new trip to Apocalypse’s ship, minutes later they were inside of the ship again, the started to walk on the hallways when suddenly the started to hear screams coming from one of the rooms nearby.
-Oh God, it’s Rei ! ! We have to save her ! !
Sailor Jupiter holded her arm
-LET ME GO ! !
-NO ! ! It could be a trap ! !
In the end Sailor Jupiter released Sailor Moon’s arm and everyone runned towards the place where the screams were originating.- When they entered the room, the saw Sailor Mars brutally beaten in some sort of energy cell which was firing lighting blasts to her.
-REI ! ! !
-Sailor Moon...escape while you can...please...
-NO ! ! You are coming with us ! !
-What for ?...to be punished for things I haven’t done ?...or for being threatened to death ?...
-No...I can see in your eyes that you are innocent...
While they talked Beast found the controls of the cell turning them off and setting Sailor Mars free, but in the precise moment when they were about to leave, two members of the Disciples of Apocalypse, Sabretooth and Omega Red appeared, the battle ensued, The X-Men teamed up to battle Omega Red while the Sailor Scouts fought Sabretooth, in the end both were quickly defeated, they continued their search until they entered a big room, it was all dark, suddenly the lights went on and they saw Apocalypse and Renee sitted on their thrones.
-Welcome.- I can see that you managed to get here, even to save your friend, but can you survive another encounter with my daughter ?
Suddenly Cerise appeared in front of them, Sailor Moon couldn’t hold her anger.
-SHE IS NOT YOUR DAUGHTER ! ! ! SHE WILL NEVER BE ! ! !
Cerise started to walk towards them, she created a pair of light swords, Rei stood between her and Sailor Moon.
-Renee stop it ! ! ! We are your friends, and Sailor Moon is your future mother ! !
For any answer she jumped and inflicted two cuts on Sailor Mars’s arms on the way down, but the black haired girl didn’t moved.
-Get off the way Sailor Mars, otherwise I’ll kill you.
-If you want to hurt Sailor Moon you will have to kill me, you understand that ?
-As you wish.
Cerise started a brutal and unmerciful attack over Sailor Mars, but the even with her body bleeding from the several cuts she had, she stood there, Cerise couldn’t believe why was that girl risking her life like that for the one she considered enemy.
-Why are you doing this ?
-Be...because she is my friend...I care about her...and about you...
-About me ? Why would you care about me ?
Before answering, Sailor Mars falled to her knees.
-Be...be...because...you...you are also my friend...if you want...to kill...somebody...let it...be me..
Cerise stood there motionless, in front of her there was a black haired girl bleeding, telling her that she wanted to trade her life in exchange for Sailor Moon’s one...something was telling her that she was doing something wrong...blurred images...a place in the future...a crystal temple...
But then she remembered when Sailor Mars gave her to Apocalypse, she bonded her swords into one and runned towards her, but before she could harm her, Sailor Moon flew above Sailor Mars and kicked her in the chest.
-ENOUGH ! ! ! I’m not going to let you harm her ! !
-OK then, I’ll fight you instead.
Like she did before, she runned towards Sailor Moon with her sword, but the blond girl just stood there motionless, but when the sword touched the silver crystal, a wave of energy engulfed both girls, when it dissipated, Sailor Chibi Moon and Sailor Moon were on the ground unconscious...
