Chapter 45. The secret is revealed.
A few weeks passed, each of them re-adapted to their new lives. Roy
wanted to return to the Golden, at least to deny the news of his death. But to
his astonishment, Tom and the girls, the companions who were there, finalizing
the collection of their things, did not seem to remember that he had died. They
had only in mind the idea that he had an accident. In reality it was enough to
invent a plot to support that history, helped by Beruche, Tom and Cooan.
According to these, he had suffered a car accident. Now Roy said his identity
was confused by medical services and he had been in a hospital until then.
Fortunately he recovered from his wounds and he was well. No one wanted to
dwell on the subject, even when they went to Miss Parker's office, she was glad
to see him again. Together with his friends he knocked on the door and received
the “ come in” from her. He smiled wistfully, remembering the times he had come
to the same place almost always to receive a scolding. Then he entered. Parker
was reading reports and raised her head to look as he asked.
-Yes? What…?
She was instantly muted as soon as she saw the boy. She
could hardly believe it. She rose like a spring without being able to
articulate word ...
-Are ... are you? ... But. I thought You were ...
-No, miss. - The young man could say softly. - You see, they confused
me, you know.
He explained all this to the stunned head teacher who
could hardly believe it ... Parker could hardly say, really taken by the
emotion.
-You're incorrigible. You always have to worry me.
-I'm really sorry - the boy mumbled, lowering his head. -
But to the astonishment of Roy himself and his
friends, the stern teacher hugged him and tried to control her emotions, almost
without success.
-You do not know how much I regretted it when I thought about you and
how much your friends have suffered. This is a miracle indeed!
And as soon as he could separate himself from the
embrace, the boy smiled gratefully. Even feeling guilty to see the tears slip
by the normally impassive face of his head teacher.
-I thank you warmly, miss. I know how patient you have been with me and
the opportunities you have given me. And I have to tell you something, one
thing only you should hear. You deserve to know the truth. Guys, please.- He
asked his friends.- Would you leave us alone for a few moments?
Bertie and the others nodded. But first they hugged Parker tenderly.
-Thank you for everything, miss. – Beruche said, adding even
affectionately. -And forgive me if I said unpleasant things to you.
-Okay, forget about it. I understand it, better than you think ... -The
head teacher mumbled. -
-Thank you very much for everything. - Cooan added, giving her another
hug to assert - We will always remember you with affection, indeed.
-Yes. Thank you. - Tom added, not forgetting that Parker, despite her
severity and detachment, offered to help him when he was paralyzed. - You're a
good woman.
And the three of them left. Then Roy smiled and even
laid his hands on the stunned Parker's shoulders to unveil everything that had
happened and at the end of the story he knew she believed him. She was one of
those people who kept memories of what had happened. And he realized that when
he finished his story.
-I was in a really wonderful place ... and there, shortly before returning,
a person asked me to tell you this. He told me it would mean something
important to you. - And after taking a deep breath, he said. - Go on with your
dreams, Jinny.
At that, Parker paled, opened her mouth in a notorious
way, and then she burst into tears. Roy himself worried about her ....
-Are you all right?
And her once stern teacher smiled in a way he had
never seen to nod and sentence emotionally.
-I had not been better for many years. That's what my fiancé called me.
I never told anyone. He always encouraged me like this when something was
wrong. Thank you, thank you very much! May God bless you ... Now, please, if
you're kind enough to leave me alone.
-Of course, - the boy nodded. - But first I'd like to ask you something,
miss.
-You will say. - The teacher could reply. - Whatever ...
-I know the honorary degree was awarded to me, but I want to do the
exams. I want to have my degree on my own merits. Please. I do not want to
cheat again or take shortcuts anymore.
Hearing this, Parker smiled again, nodded, and could say softly.
-I see that today is a day full of miracles. Of course you have changed
a lot. Your parents would be very proud. They told me when they were here,
years ago, to enroll you. And they asked me to take care of you. And it was true.
Many times you behaved like a thug and an informal, but deep down you have
always had a big heart.
-Thank you. - The boy smiled, to whom it was now his turn to get
excited. - Thank you, Miss Parker.
-Call me Jane, - she said more jovially, adding. - You'll have to
examine yourself in September. But I'm sure you'll make it. Miss Malinde will
take care of that, I have no doubt.
-Of course, - he exclaimed, asserting amusement. -She is even stricter than you ... Jane!
That made even the teacher laugh. Then they both said
goodbye. Roy felt happy, he would have to wait, but that time would do him good
to study, and helped by his friends, he was sure to do it. Anyway, not only was
he back. With his wish, most of those who died were there and for his family
and friends, it was as if it had never happened. Actually, his fellow students
were more surprised to see Tom walking, which also had to be explained by using
another justification of the kind of miracle operation that everyone took for
granted. His companions did not break their heads thinking about it, just
rejoicing.
-Good. I've seen almost everyone. -The “resurrected” boy sighed.
-It is true. Although you have to see someone else. - Bertie smiled
taking his arm. -
-Yes, I know who you mean. - The young man nodded. -
And that reunion
was the one he had with Melanie. The girl was no longer in college, she had
gone on vacation with Malcolm, as she told Beruche and the others. But she was
back at her house and before Roy returned to school, Tom phoned her, asking her
and Roberts to go. There was something they had to know and it was very
important. As his partner was a serious boy who both appreciated a lot, they
did not hesitate to go. First they greeted Bertie and Connie. Afterwards, they
did not leave their amazement to see the own Tom standing and walking. They
undoubtedly believed that the reason for calling them was due to the recovery
of their former classmate and they were very moved. But what really stunned
them, (at first Melanie even fainted from the impression), was to see Roy
again. Malcolm was pale, he thought the
boy was a ghost. Although he and his girlfriend, once reanimated, were told the
truth, as it had been. These two were among the few people who remembered the
real facts. The rest of the people, between government propaganda and Roy's
desire for the dragon, had completely forgotten the demons and simply believed
that everything was due to a chain of attacks that destroyed gas pipes and
other vital points. International anti-American terrorists and millenarian
fanatics of indeterminate origin were blamed. Although when Melanie embraced
her resurrected friend overcome by tears, he stroked her hair while still
joking.
-It's not so easy to get rid of me, Mel! You should know.
-Then it's over? - She managed to ask, still in tears of joy. -
His companion nodded slowly and smiled. Roberts also
seized by the emotion, intervened taking the girl by the waist in an
affectionate gesture and said.
- And the irony of the case is that almost nobody remembers it as it has
been. If we thought to say something they would take us for demented.
-Leave him alone, my friend! - Roy replied with kindness and complicity.
- I assure you it's the best.
And Melanie looked at him inquiringly, wondering in
wonder and curiosity, wiping her tears with a handkerchief.
- Really. Who are you?
And the alluded returned an affectionate look and smiled to answer.
- Your partner and your friend. A boy who wants to live a life like that
of others. With the girl he loves. - To emphasize that, he put an arm around
Beruche's shoulders, pulling her toward him, as he added. - And being honest, I
still do not know who I am in its entirety. There are parts of me that remain
hidden, and I cannot go into them myself. But one day, I hope I can discover
them.
-You really were dead, weren´t you? did You go there? How is it? - Asked
the astonished girl. -
And she did so with almost reverential fear, raising
her gaze to the ceiling. Well, even if she did not made that impression at
first sight, she had been well educated in the Methodist Church.
-I was there, and it's indescribable. It makes you be different than you
have been. Now I understand well what is really important in this life. - Roy
assured her with solemnity nothing feigned this time. –
And at the inquisitive gaze of herself and Roberts, he answered with one
affectionate word.
- To live.
There was a respectful silence of all, only broken by Malcolm after a
few moments ...
- You can be sure of counting on us for what you need and do not forget
to visit us sometime. The same goes for you, Tommy and Connie.- He said just as
surprised as his girlfriend but less interested in such mystical subjects.-
-Have you thought what are you going to do? - Cooan wanted to know. -
- I, as I told you when we graduated, will try on NFL professionals. - Malcolm
replied, adding with pride. - What's more, I already did some tests and I have
a lot of chances to join a professional team.
-Hey, that's great! Which one? - Tom asked. -
- I'd rather have it safe before I say it, lest it bring me bad luck. -
The boy smiled. -
-I want to try my luck in the NBA, too! - Roy said with the same
enthusiasm as his sports colleague. - But first I will graduate properly, I
will train a lot and, who knows?
-One day we'll be triumphing in professional leagues, sure! - Roberts
encouraged him with a friendly gesture of complicity. – Good Lucky my friend…
Roy accepted that wish in delight. In the depths of
his heart he also wished luck to Malcolm. They even hugged each other after
shaking hands, which pleased everyone. And Bertie smiled at that scene, and
addressed Melanie with the same question.
-Do you have any plans?
The girl nodded as she declared with visible contentment.
-I've been told that here in the Golden some professors retire within a
few years. I have already ordered to request a place. For now I will do an
adaptation course for higher education and I hope to be able to enter here, as
a teacher, in the future. If you want to register with me, we could do it
together! It is a first step to the doctorate. And you too Connie! It would not
be the same without you. – Melanie added with a smile. -
- I do not think I'm interested. I am very happy with the little ones.
Tom and I will settle down near the school where we work. - Cooan said shaking
his head. - But thank you very much.
- I do want to. - On the contrary Beruche affirmed. - So I'll take your
word and we'll get in touch.
- Call me whenever you want. - Melanie answered affectionately, adding
with interest. - I hope you're also in the U.S.
- I like this country, surely I will settle here just like my sister.
Further. How am I going to leave this element alone! –
She joked, pinching Roy's butt with a gasp of
surprise, so the boy protested in a jocular manner.
-Hey, little cube! It seems to me
that you have learned too much at this time.
Everyone laughed heartily and continued to chat. At
the moment, both Tom, Cooan and Beruche were well regarded and very happy in
their work. And they would stay there unless something better came up. The
group agreed to see each other again. Melanie and Malcolm wished them the best
of luck and said goodbye cordially to them. For his part, Roy left his job as a
pizza deliverer, (despite his bosses begs for he to stay), he still had money
from his savings and that was enough for him to study for a few more months
until he graduated. Anyway he insisted on trying on some professional team, as
he had said. Controlling their powers he could pass unnoticed). At least he won
a temporary contract in a league team, the CBA. (The second in category after
the NBA). With that and his economic reserves, he could keep well, but his mind
was already pointing to the top.
The others had not been idle, either. After the march
of Karaberasu, Petz, Beruche and Cooan had been depressed, but they decided to
maintain the strength. Soon, helped by the boys, they overcame the sadness in
the hope that her sister would indeed succeed in redoing her life and being
happy. As for everyday life, Petz maintained her position as an employee for a
few more weeks, although in reality, she wanted to return to Japan and reopen
Otafukuya. Who knows! Maybe Kalie had gone or would end up back there! Sapphire
agreed on that with her, the boy, thanks to the mediation of the warriors, and
Ami's friendships. (Or rather of Mr. Fumata with some businessmen) could also
leave the pizzas and take care of an engineering vacancy in a Japanese
multinational. Soon to be hired by ESA (the European Space Agency), which
allowed him to continue working from Japan. With his knowledge of the thirtieth
century in that discipline, he was soon highly valued. Although he did not want
to develop that technology completely, so as not to overflow the capacity of
his colleagues.
Nephrite could not complain either. At first he
returned to Japan with the warriors and after returning to see Naru, he
effectively decided that it was best left the situation as it was. It happened
that, when already in Tokyo and installed, he was to visit Usagi Tsukino,
rather the one that was Sailor Moon. And he asked her for a favor. When she
heard him she was surprised, and even moved. Some tear trickled down the girl's
face as she nodded.
Usagi called her friend Naru, told her they will meet
in the park, near the chocolate dessert kiosk. Luckily that day Umino was out doing
school activities in a computer class. Of course as part of the Usagi plan, she
was not there. So Naru blamed her for
always being late. The girl, sighting in resignation, waited sitting on a
nearby bench. There Nephrite saw her. The man approaching her, he was
surprised. The girl was much older, even more beautiful than he remembered, waiting
for her friend in a light green dress and a nice matching bow in her hair. That
made it even more painful to have to quit on her. But trying to master that
feeling and gathering courage, he came up to the girl. She did not notice his
presence until he was right next to her and started.
-Forgive me if I frightened you. Miss. - He excused himself. - You see,
I'd like to ask you a favor.
- To me? - She said with a surprised look, looking at that handsome type
of long brown hair up to the shoulders, even though with some distrust, since
she was suffered from similar situations. - What is it about?
Nephrite decided to go quickly to the point, he did
not want to frighten her without necessity. So, as it was the last time they
met, he spoke with sincerity, appealing to the heart.
-I'm sorry, I did not introduce myself. My name is Nephrite Sanjouin.
Well, Saint Join. - He corrected that he had westernized his last name.
-Osaka Naru, nice to meet you.- She replied in a rather dubious but polite
way. -
-You'll think it's silly, but you'll see. A few years ago I made a
promise to a young lady as young and beautiful as you. We would eat here a
chocolate dessert. Unfortunately I could not keep it and I lost her. You remind
me of her a lot and I believed, well. That if you accepted that I invited you
to one of those desserts, that would be very nice.
-It's just that I-well, I was staying with a friend. - The bewildered
girl replied, feeling somewhat violent. -
-I beg you. It would be very important for me, - he pleaded suppliantly.
- To be able to fulfill that promise. I've been wanting to do it for so long
...
Naru looked at him in astonishment, though she was so
good-hearted she could not help but get moved. Maybe that was a trick to try to
tie it to her, it would not be the first time some handsome boy tried such a
thing on her for poorly designed purposes. But looking at that stranger in
those blue eyes, something inside her, perhaps a sixth sense, or a strange
sensation that came from the depths of her heart, told her that he was sincere.
Possibly that poor man lost his beloved in a tragic way. And if what she had
been asked for could help him, the truth is that was no sacrifice at all.
-I'll be glad to accept. - She smiled now more broadly. -
He smiled back, something inside seemed to have lit up
and gave him a sense of great happiness. The girl got up and together they sat
at a table. They asked for that dessert and when he tried it, the girl looked
at him with some concern.
-Are you alright?
At first Nephrite did not know what she was referring
to, although he soon realized that he was crying and tears were pouring down
the table.
-Yes, thank you, I'm sorry. - He could say as he savored that to add
with emotion. - It's true, it's delicious. She was right.
-I must confess that it is my favorite dessert. I had just met with a
friend to eat it here. But she is always late. She will never change! - She
smiled, looking a little jovial with the description of that mad girl, more
than anything else trying to cheer him up. -
-Well, to be honest, I must tell you that I'm glad your friend is late.
Thanks to that I have been able to meet you. Life is full of coincidences. I
told you that you reminded me of her a lot. You look alike! She was charming and
full of kindness. She saved me in every way that one can be - he declared that
it had already been enough recovered from his emotions. -
-She must have been a great girl. - Naru commented also carried by the
emotion, replicating now with modesty. - I do not think I'm worthy to compare
myself to her.
-Oh, yes, you absolutely are, have no doubt! You are just as wonderful as
she was for me, and I wish you all happiness. For me it has been a privilege to
be able to replace your friend today. And believe me when I say that you have
made me very happy. I assure you, I will never forget it. - He smiled broadly
that he sentenced while adding some tear wiped. - Now I understand what she
felt at that time. It's funny, I laugh and I cry at the same time!
Naru looked at him so touched, her own eyes were wet now.
That poor boy had to love that girl a lot to be as affected. She wanted to know
more about his life and asked him, what he did, he replied that it was
antiquarian. They talked a little longer and then Nephrite said goodbye. Gently
taking one of her hands in his own, he kissed her in an aristocratic way and,
after taking out a business card, he handed it to the girl, saying.
-If you ever need anything. Any object of art or any other particular,
do not hesitate to call me. Whenever and wherever you are. It has been a
pleasure and an honor to have met you, Miss Osaka.
-Call me Naru, please and thank you very much for the dessert. - She
replied kindly. -
-Thanks to you, for everything you has given me, and goodbye Naru. - He
smiled full of happiness, wiping at last the tears to sentence. - I will never
forget you.
And Nephrite walked away from there, bowing his head
deferentially to the girl. Then he turned and did not want to look back. She
sat watching him as he got lost in the crowd. When he was far enough he came to
a point that he had previously agreed with Usagi. She was waiting for him along
with her warrior friends. Although they all wore their civilian clothes. The
first thing that the boy did was to approach and in a felt and very recognized
way he said.
-Sailor Moon thank you. Thank you so much for everything.
-How was it? - Rei became interested. -
-I was able to keep my promise-at last. - He smiled brightly. -
-How glad I am for both of you! - Ami said at the strange gesture of
Minako and Makoto, who had not met Nephrite then -
-I think you should go with her now. – He added trying to recover the
joviality between so much emotion. - She must be very angry for waiting for you
so much.
-Do not worry! - Usagi laughed stating without shame. - I always do the
same to the poor girl, even if this time it was due to a good cause. -
-You know? - He sighed and smiled warmly. - Now I think I'm really ready
to start my new life.
And the girls
nodded, pleased for him. Nephrite remembered this with nostalgia. However, in
addition to starting a new life, he also
had to make a living. As he told Naru, he became interested in the world of
antiquities. Counting on his great style and education, and the support they
gave him, he had no difficulty entering that exclusive space. He had always
liked that. Thus, thanks to more friends of Mister Fumata, (this man was
incredibly well connected in Japan). He got a loan to set up an antique shop.
With his intelligence and his know-how, he had no trouble securing a market
right away. He was enthusiastic about classic objects and had a proverbial good
taste. Soon he began to obtain benefits, in just a few weeks these reached a
degree of enormous profitability. He himself
cannot explain it , but there was always some mysterious buyer who paid
generously for the most varied articles. In this way, his life was more than
channeled and in his mind began to be drawn another goal that told the
warriors. Why not expand the business to Europe when he has enough capital?
Above all, to set up a branch in London, he was very fond of the lifestyle and
atmosphere of the British capital, although (and he did not confess it to his
sailors friends) he also wanted to start from scratch and leave some memories
behind as that of Naru. So he decided to move there, sooner or later.
For Ail and Ann. The reunion was also very emotional
and wonderful. Shortly after returning to Japan after the victory. They still
remembered it with a big smile ...
The warriors joined together and in the center were
Mamoru, Ail and Nephrite, who helped them with their energies. They all invoked
the power of translation and vanished back to their home. When he reappeared
next to his battle companions they were in the Hikawa Shrine. He hid a little
and took out his flute. The sailors went to her friend and talked a little with
her. Ann wore a nice orange and white dress and carried her son. Then Ail began
to play. She listened to a tune played by her partner and the alien knew that
it was him. Usagi told her to entrust the baby to Makoto. Sailor Jupiter took
him in her arms with a smile encouraging her friend.
-Run Annie, go with him!
With a radiant smile and tears of joy Ann rushed next
to her pair, Ail also came smiling, allowing she embraced him. Soon he lifted her
up and turned her around to embrace her with obvious emotion.
-I thought you were killed! - She sobbed without even believing –
-And I was killed. They did it,
but I was able to return to this world with some other friends. We fought
together and defeated evil. It's a long story to tell, darling. - The euphoric
young man replied. -
The girl looked at him in surprise, Ail was much
stronger and his look was very determined, he had changed a lot. He, with that
telepathic bond they both possessed, commented in soft words.
-As I told you, it's long to tell ... But now we'll have time.
She nodded, then the two approached Sailor Moon who
cradled the baby. Ail took him in his arms and whispered affectionately.
-My son, I'm back. Now I can see you grow and tell you many things ...
And things went well for them though same as their
other friends. The girl, who always had vocation of actress, did some theater
tests and, surprise! She got some other roll. She did not do it wrong, even if
these were only minor interventions. She made little money, but she was
excited. Between her and Ail, who managed to work as a manager in one of the
buildings of a chess enthusiast friend of Ami's grandfather. (He again!) They
took care of their baby as best they could. Although that would be temporary,
because they were already wanting to return to space, in search of a new world.
None wanted to return to the previous one they discovered, that brought back
bad memories to them. Anyway, they still would not leave. They wanted little
Giaal to grow a little more. And also, they longed to meet with their friends
for one last farewell.
Diamond whereabout was still unknown. Roy also could
not contact Landar. He did not capture his energy nor that of his mentors in
Heaven. But the wizard had promised him an answer that would clarify his
doubts. The question was. When would he decide to give it to him?
Thus passed another month, all the friends, spread by
the different confines of the world, were left to meet in New York. In the park
the one in which they planned the fight against the demons. And none missed the
appointment. Tom, Roy, Beruche, Cooan. The others, coming from Japan, along
with the warriors, Mamoru, Luna and Artemis. Although this time the plans of
fighting, the uniforms of Justicieras or sailors and the weapons had been
replaced by normal clothes and baskets of snacks. For more than one of the
warriors and Annie herself, this reunion brought back old memories. Gathered in
a large green meadow, near a beautiful lake, they exchanged brief talks to
inform each other of their progress, and when they prepared to eat, two more
guests arrived and were surprised. At once they recognized the first of them.
Tall, with long white hair up to his shoulders, he wore a strange, khaki-colored
American-style dress. And next to him, a beautiful woman of stylized figure,
good stature also, hazel eyes and long light green hair, dressed in the same
way.
-Hello! - The man said good-naturedly, as he approached the group,
descending from the sky while holding the woman in his arms. -
-Brother! - Sapphire, who was already well shaved and short-haired,
exclaimed, getting up immediately to go to meet him.- You made it!
Diamond. (Obviously it was him) smiled with joy and
once landed, he gently left that beautiful young woman standing. She flanked
him to his right, grabbing his arm and sketching a shy and excited smile in
turn, not without some prevention.
People there also rose very happy to see them. For
Roy, Tom, Ail, Ann, Nephrite and some of the sailors, that woman was a
stranger, but the others recognized her without hesitation. Although the look
in her eyes was very different from what they remembered, as well as the
expression of peace and joy, combined with a slight timidity, now appeared on
her face. Diamond, complying with the rules of courtesy for those who did not
have the pleasure to meet her, introduced her.
- My friends. This is Emerald.
The girl bowed slightly and greeted gently.
- I'm delighted to meet you all.
-So you are the famous Emerald! No wonder Diamante came to find you, you are a
beauty! - Roy exclaimed cheerfully. -
That way he could provoke the laughter of the
majority, the deep blush of that girl, the subsequent cluster of Diamond at his
head and shot, get a nudge in his ribs kindness of Bertie, although she laughed
also while hitting to him.
-It's a pleasure! - Everyone else answered. -
Although the new arrival immediately lowered her head
ashamed before Sailor Moon and the other sailors who knew and could mumble.
-I feel terribly sorry for the behavior I had in the past with you.
Above all I am very sorry for my jealousy and my hatred for you. I humbly beg
your pardon, my queen. -She shot off, addressing Usagi in particular, even
trying to bend one knee before her. -
And she stepped forward to avoid softly letting her
partner kneel and putting both hands on that girl's shoulders, she smiled
cordially to respond.
- And I'm very glad you're with us. Now you are one of the group, Emerald.-
And as always, from a formal tone she changed without transition to another
casual and even comical to exclaim. - Come on, we'll make you room and tell us
where you're going out, we have a lot of food!
The astonished newcomer smiled, feeling very happy,
equally received support from the rest of the warriors and their new friends.
As it could not be otherwise, both she and Diamond were interrogated without
ceasing. Where do you come from? What have you been doing all this time? And
similar questions, to which the overflowed prince only answered.
-Let's say Landar was right, and love was able to redeem us completely.
We have had to fight against ourselves and come out of another dimension.
-Yes, all thanks to Diamond, to the faith and that love he put into me!
- Esmeralda adding with a long sigh. - It's a long story to tell!
So it was, and it took them an hour to simply
summarize it. At last, the group released them from the focus and decided to
eat and drink, since until then they had only heard the narration of their recovered
friends. In the end, between jokes and laughter the afternoon passed. Roy and
Tom had taken a karaoke and sang many songs to delight the rest. Of course
Diamond was not spared from keeping her word. The others even repeated the
choruses of many of the songs they had used for their training. And it could be
said that the rest of the boys would almost have preferred to fight some demon
than to have to act in public as singers. Although everyone had a lot of fun
and the laughter grew stronger, especially those of Emerald that made those who
knew her of old to remember that aspect of her, apparently was the only one
that had not changed since the time of the Black Moon. The embarrassed girl
covered her mouth with one hand and tried not to laugh. But it was better when
Diamante, to cut off one of those tears of laughter, gave her a warm and deep
kiss on the lips before the "Uuuh! Of the rest that put the pair visibly
red. Then more music, more conversations between the various bands that formed
and even dancing. To the desserts, and with the more calm group, Petz, Beruche
and Cooan, they looked melancholically at the sun that already began to
describe its curve of fall toward the dusk and they remembered their absent
sister.
-Surely, wherever she is, she'll be fine and she will not miss this
show. - Roy whispered affectionately to Bertie, sensing her feeling, and she,
more comforted, nodded and smiled. -
And for a few moments there was total silence until ...
-Boys and girls, listen! - Roy demanded, rising to his feet and raising
his glass. – I would like to make a toast on behalf of all of us and Kalie! ,
Which is not present here in person. But she is in our hearts! I am sure that
we will see her soon enough. In order to we are happy and we can always meet!
Or come to the aid of any of us or the people who need us. And of course, in
order to do these parties often, or at least stay from time to time.
-Yes, for all of that! - They all chanted in unison, raising and
clinking their glasses. -
The sailors in unison made that toast. However, although in an
aside, it was Artemis who told Minako.
-Are you really sure what you're going to do?
-Yes ... I am. -The sailor said flatly. -
-You know we've been banned from any direct contact with her. At least
for now. - The cat reminded her.-
His friend sighed as if trying to gather her courage to reply.
-I know perfectly. I know what Usagi and Mamoru told us. That girl has
to live her life apart from the rest. That will be very important for the
future. I am not unaware that they are direct orders of the Silver Millennium
sovereigns, who spoke to us as Serenity and Endymion and I know the
consequences of disobeying ... but still ... understand it Artemis. -I cannot,
- she whispered with obvious consternation. - I was unable to protect her when
those wicked raped her. I will not abandon her now. At least I´ll try to give
her some support, even from a distance. Will you help me? -She asked in a
pleading tone. - Please!
The cat looked at her with regret and sympathy nodded to declare.
-You know very well that you are my friend and that I will never leave
you alone. We will do our best to help that poor girl. I'll see to it as soon
as I can.
Minako smiled then stroking the cat's head, then the
two returned to the stream of laughter and general animation ...
-It's great to see so many friends together! - The prince of Nemesis
spoke up jovially. - I must confess, I did not know what true friendship was
until recently and I did not know what I was missing ...
-No other things either! How kisses the little prince! – Nephrite
laughed.- Hey, leave something for later! ...
And he told them the last words in his classic ironic
style, making Diamond and Emerald who were shagging with disguise, reddened
again between the laughter of all.
-It's true, -the aforementioned admitted putting a hand to his head,
visibly embarrassed to agree. - I did not know what true love was either. How
could I have lived in such a boring way? - He and all the others continued to
do so with renewed vigor. -
Then Emerald rose and declared, as soon as the
laughter had subsided, in a more serious and emotional way.
-For me, being here today is a miracle. -She looked at the warriors with
a slightly sad face, even though they had all expressed their forgiveness, but
she added. - You do not know how I regret my previous behavior! And although I
know that you are generous in heart and you have forgiven me, I would like to
be able to do something to deserve it. To be able to amend in any way all the
damage that I could have caused to you or the world. As the four sisters did.
-Bah! that is already forgotten woman! - Usagi repeated with a grin,
assuring. - You'll be one of our friends now. Same as Annie and the sisters.
Ail and Ann were with their human appearance,
next to their son who looked like a baby like any other and the girl intervened
correcting with a funny smile.
-Now call me Natsumi Ginga, girls! It's my stage name.
- Yes, and my Seiyonou – Ail added with the same expression confirming
to everyone's happiness - For now we are going to stay a little more on Earth.
-Good! - Rei cried enthusiastically. - That also has to be celebrated!
-But we'll keep calling you Ail. That other name is very complicated.- Roy
laughed and the rest did it with him.-
-So here it goes, another toast! - Tom suggested. - By Natsumi or Annie,
Seiyonou or Ail and their son, the little Giaal. Another member of our group to
defend the good and peace of the World!
-Wait for him to grow up, you impatient! - Roy exclaimed, once more
ready to shudder. -
After more laughter, it was Usagi herself, after a
quick meeting with her fellow warriors, to take the floor more seriously.
Addressing Emerald.
- We have heard your desire to make amends and we are very happy for it.
Now, besides that you have a purified and have a renewed heart, there is one
thing that you could do. If you want, you could become just a Justiciera as the
sisters.
-Yes! – Petz intervened with evident pleasure. - Until Kalie comes back,
there are only three of us, and the more we're the better.
-And when she returns, we'll be five! As the first group of warriors! – Cooan
said with the same enthusiasm as her sister. -
Emerald smiled gratefully at that proposition and replied shyly.
-If that were possible, if I deserve that honor, it would be my
pleasure.
-Do not talk anymore! - Usagi said flatly, after looking sideways and
convincing herself that there were no strangers around there, she added. - I'll
summon your star seed.
All but the sisters and the other sailors were
surprised, although no one had occasion to ask. Usagi became Eternal Sailor
Moon and, as she did with the sisters, made a jewel out of the candidate's
heart. It had the green color that bears the name of the girl herself, who,
excited, could not help but admire the beauty of it. It was a lighter shade
than the color of Petz´s stone and Emerald´s one shone into a boomerang. Then
Usagi explained.
- It's the symbol of your return. As the boomerang returns to its
pitcher. I think it is the most propitious weapon to define your return to the
path of good.
The girl took it in her hands and sobbed excitedly,
slowly moving her head, while smiling as soon as that weapon turned into that
beautiful jewel again, incredulous at the warm glow of that stone that now was
set in a pendant.
- I cannot believe that something so beautiful was inside me. Thank you,
Queen Serenity.
- Usagi, call me Usagi- Chan. - She corrected her, tiredly, kindly, and
amused. -
- You must shout Pure Heart of the Wind give me the power! In order to
transform you. - Well, your element has been consecrated to the air. - Luna
informed her. -
Everyone encouraged her to try, she agreed willingly
and in effect, she could invoke her new power by transforming her skin clothes
into a uniform similar to that of the sisters, with their particular tonality.
And caught in it, amid the green bow on her chest, the three jewels she had
worn in her old suit of the Black Moon. Great emeralds that were the symbol of
her family. Although the girl once returned to her former appearance, she
declared Makoto's question about what she intended to do.
- I'd like to leave my past behind and settle down in Paris. The
ancestors of Diamante's mother were from there. And I have also discovered that
I have a passion for fashion.
- That is very interesting. - Guerrero Pluto said revealing them all. -
I also like very much, if you need some help, do not hesitate in contact with
me or with the others. - She offered with kindness, with the assent of Uranus
and Neptune. - We know a very influential person in that field and we will do
our best to help you get started.
Emerald smiled gratefully and how could it be
otherwise, they would all try to give her a hand. This time they would not be
charged with Mr. Fumata, (on this occasion his contacts did not reach so much).
But those of Setsuna, Michiru and Haruka, who knew how to develop well for the
world of art and music. By virtue of this they knew people related to jet set
and fashion and would try to talk to them. They offered themselves very gently.
Rei, on the other hand, always took advantage of any
situation to argue with Usagi and said, not without a certain tinge, when her
friend returned to her normal identity.
-Look, for once you've been very witty with that boomerang thing. So nobody could say that you are dumb anymore!
-Whom are you calling dumb, Rei? - She replied, frowning. -
-Me? To no one,- The aforementioned replied shrugged with false innocent
expression, to sentence with amused sarcasm. - I'm just speaking on behalf of
what it is believed.
-That's a lie! - Usagi opposed, and she was already starting to turn red
while accusing her partner. - What happens to you is that you envy me!
-That I envy you? Come on, you are delusional ! - She snapped, sticking
out her tongue. –
Her interlocutor did the same and so they spent a long
time. After a few moments, Rei seemed to want to ingratiate herself with her
friend and after smiling and making a space with her hands to stop her mocking,
she said, while taking a sandwich from her plate.
-Ok, ok. - I recognize that this time I have crossed the line. Here,
after what you've done, you deserve at least one prize, Usagi.
-Really? - She asked, seeming to look at her companion with narrowed
eyes, as if she did not entirely trust what she heard her say.
-Yes, of course, - the Mars warrior grinned amid the gestures of
astonishment of her friends. More to add with a tinge of cloying kindness.- I
have been very impolite with you and I apologize. Take, as a sign of my
repentance, you may eat one of my favorite sandwiches.
- Oh, Rei, this I did not expect from you. For once you have made a
gesture. - Her friend said looking at that appetizing sandwich with visible
interest.
-So, help yourself, therefore for you and me it shall we peace - said
her friend with a wide smile.-
The interpellated did not think it twice, taking that
sandwich from her partner's hands and devoured it in just three bites. She
chewed enthusiastically as Rei smirked. Suddenly Usagi put her hands to her
mouth and pulled out her tongue, but with a shriek and a quick search for some
water as her eyes wept profusely.
-It is burning me! - It was all she could say as she grabbed a bottle of
water and drank it almost completely before the other's hallucinated faces. -
-I hope you like my extra chilli and spicy mustard .- Rei said between laughs,
to sentence .- This I had to pay you back ... ha, ha, ha, ha! ...
But now it was Usagi who, after recovering minimally,
looked at her with a furious expression and exclaimed trying to catch her.
-You're a spiteful and a creep, Rei!
You will pay for this ...
In the meantime, Mars was sneaking off conveniently to
rest behind the stunned Minako, Ami and Makoto. In this way they spent a good
time in pursuit of each other. The rest were already accustomed and left them
to their own business until they tired after pulling of the hairs and ears.
Meanwhile, Diamante received the support of Sapphire,
he would introduce him to people of his company. As he told Roy, his older
brother, besides being the prince of Nemesis, knew how to handle well and
understood the programs of future computers. He studied it as part of his
apprenticeship as a child. That was the best thing he could do at this time,
taking advantage of his knowledge and joining his little brother, would form a
luxury team for any research and technological development center. So the thing
was already in the pipeline. And when the two warriors concluded their nth
dispute, it was Nephrite who took the floor.
- I also have something to say. Same as this persistent Diamond, who
always has to be talking. -Diamond gave a jocular hit to his partner who
replied by throwing a napkin that did not hit in his target and added. - I am happy to
be able to remake my life and to have fulfilled one of my great dreams. -
Everyone looked at him with faces of curiosity until he added with feigned
pomp. - Eat chocolate dessert!
The warriors, remembering what happened, were the only
ones who smiled, the others did not know what the joke was. Diamond tossed
another napkin with a sneer.
-Look with what this fool goes out to us !, I'll give you dessert!
-Well, that is! - Sapphire and Ail reclaimed taking advantage of that. -
Is the dessert coming now? We are hungry, we are hungry!
-Sapphire! Commented his astonished girlfriend. - You ate a lot
yesterday at home and you have eaten a
lot now, still you are more hungry. Where do you put it?
-But Petz, - he justified himself. - This morning has been exhausting,
and you also threw the magic beans behind the sofa when you ... well ... you
know ... and I have not recovered.
-Shut up, they're all going to find out! - The embarrassed girl cut off
reddening for a moment. -
Everyone laughed again, pointing now to the couple who
did not know where to go. Cooan commented among the general rejoicing.
- Look at elder sister and that you hated men before! Hey, Petz?
-Well ...- the woman replied, still a bit embarrassed, although she
counterattacked with reticence. -I do not suppose Tom and you have been wasting
your time, either.
Now it was these two who also reddened in the eye. Roy
chuckled, exclaiming.
-This is really something! , LOL. Guys, in this as in the fight. What
did the song say? - He asked his training partners. -
These replied in unison with casual cries and raising a fist in the air.
-I'll sleep when I'm dead!
-Well, go! - Makoto said amused as
she waved her right hand. – You don´t waste your time at all, no!
-Even I, the Mikado of love, I'm surprised. - Minako added with another
exclamation. – What happened with those who did not know what love was! You
have learned it quickly!
In this way jokes continued among all. At one point it
was the turn of even Mamoru. After making a few toasts, he started to talk, the
young man got up and with the audience's attention placed on him, he declared.
- Today is a great day, time for friends to celebrate together.
Opportunity to greet us in this reunion and narrow even more if they fit, these
ties that unite us ... because the bonds of affection are like subtle magnets
that will always keep us close ... and no matter what happens we can count ...
And he was so engrossed in his speech, unaware of the
astonished expressions of the rest that he did not even notice Roy's presence.
This one assaulted him from behind by placing an arm around his shoulders and
covering his mouth with a sandwich at the same time exclaiming in a funny way.
-You better finish or we are going to reach the thirty century, man!
The group went from surprise and disbelief to laughter.
Highlighting Emerald that almost deaf to Diamond and Nephrite who were by his
side ... Even though the noise of they were eclipsed by the general. Even the
normally serious and thoughtful Setsuna was lying on the lawn, holding the
abdomen that threatened to hurt already ... Haruka and Michiru were not able to
get up between laughs and Hotaru was clinging to a tree trunk to not go to the
ground.
-Yeah ... he almost knocked me out with a few phrases like that! - Cooan
could not stop laughing.
-There was no one to beat him!- Annie agreed holding her little baby
trying not to bend her laughter.- He hallucinated even to our cards!
So the target of all that joke took that sandwich from
his mouth and was able to respond trying to defend himself ...
-It is not a big deal…
Although his girlfriend and the rest of the sailors,
also victims of laughter, they jointly agreed with their friends ...
-Man ...- Roy repeated again with
a laugh. - I pity all these if they had to deal with your speeches!
Mamoru moved his head however, he sported those jokes
and smiled. Roy patted his back causing him to almost fall ...
So they continued with more jokes, music and dancing.
Finally at nightfall they got up and decided to take a walk in the park, now
deserted people, before saying goodbye. Then, without anyone knowing when and
how, Landar appeared. The magician, who went first to Diamond and Emerald,
declared.
-I'm glad to see that you accomplished your purpose of returning to this
world together to start a new life. Congratulations to both of you!
-Thank you, Landar, - the interpellated grinned. - You and High Cloud helped
us a lot.
-If it were not for you both, Diamond would never have been able to
rescue me. – Emerald added with visible recognition shining in her brown eyes
to solemnly assert. - We will always be grateful to you from the bottom of our hearts.
The old wizard grinned at them, then turned to Roy
more solemnly.
- The time has come that you been waiting so long. Now you will know who
you are.- And the magician raised his cane by moving his arm in a semicircle
and created a blurry image at first but later clear and luminous showing a
great palace of silver and a tall young man, dressed in white armor and gold.
It was Roy! At least his features were the same although his hair was longer,
reaching him to the shoulders, the magician revealed to him. - You are Asthel,
prince of an earlier humanity!
Roy took on the appearance of a shining knight
enveloped in light, with the sword he used in battle against the demon, except
for his hair that was still short, but crowned by a golden ribbon around his
forehead. Everyone was perplexed and Landar explained them.
- Yes, there was a previous world, the one of Alliance. You and
Bertie, you lived in it. Princes of their distant and beautiful lands.
- It was also me? - The girl pointed out herself with astonishment. -
- You're the Princess Lorein. The Winter Lady, for both you and your
sisters, you were fiery princesses who protected the planet Earth, in the
previous incarnation of your lives. Under the mandate of Serenity, the queen
mother of the Moon. - The magician revealed that, according to him, he was
explaining. -
- Petz was Ludie the Lady of the Spring, Cooan was Aelia, the Lady of
the Summer. - He broke off and said looking at no particular place. -
Karaberasu was Elisan the Lady of the Fall. You see, you were always sisters.
That is something that reincarnation itself had not been able to change. - The
magician smiled. -
And Bertie levitated, her clothes became chiffon
and light. Like Petz and Cooan, but with a different hue, if she shone with a
faint blue, her sister Petz made it a light green and Cooan a slight tone
between burgundy and violet.
-But I do not remember anything about that, - Cooan said, who agreed
with Petz that she did not keep any of that in her memory. -
- That was because you tightly closed that circle of your reincarnations.
Replied the wizard who added. - Your world was destroyed by the forces of evil
in very remote times. In an attack on an almost cosmic scale, the same as the
Silver Millennium.
-Of course, - Mamoru said. - It coincided with the destruction of the
kingdom of the Moon. But in another solar system. True?
-That's right, - the Magician said, who nonetheless added. - But that
happened in another dimension. The Evil wanted to finish with the representatives
of the Good who were more powerful. To you Asthel and Lorein sent you to Earth
reincarnated and separated by space and time, in very different places and
times. With the pretense that you will never meet them again. But fate brought
you together ...
-Yes, now I remember everything, - Roy confirmed, stating with a solemn
tone that it was not his. - I'm Asthel! , Son of Dronaos and Alisan. Prince of
the Immortal planet Alliance! -
He shook hands with Beruche, who added with an
identical tone as her mind finally cleared her memory.
-I am Lorein !, warrior princess of the Terrestrial Boreal Region and
the eternal World of Alliance. Lady of Winter and Lady of the Forest of Rarel.
Of a lineage of great antiquity in ancient times, which I renounced for my
love!
- And you became a mortal. Losing your magic gifts and your powers. The
enemy knew how to take advantage of it and destroyed your world, even though
you were brought to death by the exhaustion and sadness of the loss of
everything that was dear to you. - Landar replied with regret and even more
saddened when he confessed. - And I, a young magician apprentice, could do
nothing to save you. Just watch that the
demon Armageddon did not appropriate the powers and forces hidden in you.
Asthel, as heir of the saiyan people, of the lineage of your noble father
Dronaos, remote descendant of the great King Vegeta. And to you Lorein, trying
to bring your destiny back to him. But for this you must fight against the evil
that once defeated yourselves. Thus, the warriors helped me because I
influenced Queen Serenity with dreams.
-It's true, -Usagi agreed now showing off the silver Millennium galas in
the eyes of all, as did the rest of the sailors now shining like the princesses
of their own planets. - Landar spoke to me in my sleep when we finished
fighting against Galaxy and purified the entire Milky Way. Then he went to see
King Endymion and I. At first I did not know what it was. But then I
understood. Our mission was fulfilled but he told me that Evil would return.
Not in the same way, for Chaos, the master of all our previous enemies, was now
neutralized. But this one, even with all his power, was in turn a son of
another being that existed in the Universe. And unfortunately that evil being
has many children. One of his brothers was the cause of the destruction of your
world and wanted to ally with Chaos to also dominate the Earth in this age.
Chaos helped him by staying with Princess Lorein who did not had memories of
who she was and his ally entrusted to the demons the charge to control the soul
and the reborn body of Asthel so that it devastated this planet if Chaos
failed. This is how it happened and we were authorized to help you, but the
final victory should be yours. You had to fight all these battles, to suffer
and to overcome to the adversity in order to develop your powers. - The
sovereign declared, adding now not without regret .- Roy, you had to die
fighting Nagashel to reunite with your ancestors in Heaven and that they
prepare you. I myself met Son Goku and asked him for that favor. He assured me
that, together with his friends, he would train you to come back prepared. What
I did not know then was that everyone else would come back. And now I
understand. For in my dreams Landar also told me that when you would triumph,
your lineage would remain and would be custodian and relay of your mission, and
that your friends too. It will be a long fight until the definitive harmony is
achieved throughout the Cosmos.
And Queen Serenity concluded her speech, returning to
Usagi's appearance. The same as did her companions. Everyone listened to this,
and after them the vision of the magnificent palace with long peaks like the
glass that was confused with the sky was waning. Roy along with Beruche, descended
to the ground, recovering their normal appearance. Trying to assimilate that
with the astonished faces of the rest of their companions by witnesses.
-So you went like that once, look at yourself as you are now! - The magician said- and honor your memories
of the previous lives that you lived in this one you now have. Now I must leave
you, maybe we'll see each other again when the time comes. - He made a gesture
of turning, but before he winked at them, he broke his hardened seriousness. - You
can come to visit me someday! You know where I am. Roy, I assure you, you can
find me now!
- Thank you very much, my friend, for all we have learned. - The boy
responded with acknowledgment and Landar smiled again and vanished. -
-Wow, that's awesome! - Ail said. -
- Yes, it's very similar to our own story. -Artemis, the white cat
companion of the warriors, said with astonishment. -
-Of course, we were warriors in the past. - Petz commented. - That's why
we could become Justicieras, right?
-Not exactly .- Makoto corrected her friend, explaining to all. - Every
woman of pure heart and ready to fight for good can be a Justiciera. That is
why Emerald has been able to become one in turn.-
-And Annie? - Cooan inquired watching the alien. - She could be also a Justiciera?
-No, the warriors offered it to me too, but I refused. - The girl
replied.- I have to take care of my son,
and taking into account that one day we will not go very far, I did not think
it prudent.
-Well, it's never too late. Maybe if not you, someone of your lineage,
someday may be. - Usagi said enigmatically. -
-It would be an honor, -The alien said as she cradled her baby. - You
can never tell.
-So now I understand everything.- Rei said to Usagi, seriously this time to
mumble as an excuse. -I'm sorry I doubted you and King Endymion.
-No Rei. - She smiled as she placed her hands on the girl's shoulders. -
You have always shown me your friendship and you have supported me.
- What I did not do. - Minako lamented to apologize immediately. - I'm
sorry for all the horrible things I said to you ...
-It was natural, - her partner apologized, adding in a rather revealing
way, at least for her fellow-host. - You are a good person and you wanted to
help our friends.
-What would you have done in my situation? - The girl asked. -
Her companion nodded, sighing to admit without palliatives.
-No doubt I would do the same. I have always believed that we have to
follow the dictates of our heart and conscience, in the face of everything
else. However, sometimes we cannot or would cause even greater harm than we
want to fix. Do not forget that.
Although the questioned had no opportunity to answer
anything, The warriors Mercury and Jupiter were there and approached to excuse
themselves as well.
-I'm sorry, I should not have doubted you. - Ami apologized. -
-I also acted like a fool. I feel terrible now that I know what you were
forced to go through. - Makoto added. -
-I've always had you by my side. You are my friends. - Usagi smiled. -
And in the end you showed me that you trusted me.
-And it is very beautiful that you have said, that sometimes we must
follow the dictates of our conscience and our heart.- Jupiter could looking
sideways to Nephrite who now joked once again with Diamond, Sapphire, Ail and
Roy.-
-Yes. - Usagi replied in a low voice, to assert also in a significant way.
- But only sometimes ... Makoto. There are things that are written though. And
we should not try to vary.
The girl now lowered her head, saddened perhaps,
trying to remember those ancient lives. In the meantime she heard Mamoru turn
to Bertie and Roy speaking about that.
- It is true. - I'm glad for you guys! I know from experience what it is to recover
that kind of lost memories.
-Thank you. - Beruche smiled gratefully, adding decisively, - but we
must live this life, not the one that has passed.
-We will and we will be very happy! - Roy said embracing his girlfriend.
-
Elsewhere, the warriors of the outer solar system
commented on each other. Hotaru was asked by her companions.
-Are you glad to be with your father?
-He's a good man, he loves me very much. The truth is that when we went
to see him recently he was surprised to see me so old.
- His memory is still fragmented after his possession by the dimone
Germatoid, but at least he is better. - Michiru affirmed. -
-Yes, and his knowledge is intact. But the most beautiful and important
thing is that he reminds you, like his dear daughter. - Haruka added. -
And is that even the seemingly hard Sailor Uranus was
thrilled to shed some tears when they witnessed Tomoe's reunion with Hotaru.
The doctor was almost completely recovered. They told her that they had to take
care of the girl until he was recovered. The poor man said that in his mind he
thought the child had been a baby. The sailors, of course, had a dense and
guilty silence. It was the warrior Saturn herself who embraced her father
telling him not to worry. That these were the aftermath of the accident he
suffered. When the girl's mother, wife of that scientist, died. They were not
going to tell him anything about Hotaru's true identity. And even though from
now on she would live with her father and she would visit her companions very
continuously. Tomoe agreed with that idea. He would now have much work in his
new position and he was glad that his daughter had such good and capable
friends.
-Now things will be simpler. - Michiru said. -
-Well, we must not neglect. As we found out some time ago, there are
signs that something, in the confines of the solar system, is approaching
Earth.- Setsuna reminded them.-
-When the time comes, we'll take care of that.- The sovereign is calm in
that respect. More with these new friends.- Haruka declared, looking at the
large group of fighters and Justicieras.-
-Yes, and others I hope soon will also be our allies. Chibiusa recently told me something about
that. - Completed Hotaru. - That operation that has been carrying out ...
Her companions then listened with obvious interest in
that. But the girl could not tell them much more. The rest of the group also
continued their exchange of views. And so they all chatted with each other for
a few more hours. Falling long ago, the closed night served as a farewell
frame. They all parted, promising to see each other again in a short time. Each
of them had to follow their own life, trying to fulfill their desires and their
tasks, whether they were paired or on their own.
After a few months, Tom and Cooan decided to move west. From there,
specifically from Portland, Oregon, an excellent offer came to her as a teacher
in a kindergarten and to Tom a proposal related to martial arts to coach
children and adults. The boy even considered opening his own gym in the future.
And this because of the man they rescued during the battle. That public office,
in fact, was a senator with great influence in that state. In addition to being
a grateful person he reported very favorably on both boys. Cooan could not
recognize him at first, although to Tom and helped by the own federal
government, (by the way, very interested in the subject). That man made sure
they were very well recommended. Beruche also received a similar offer.
However, in view of her desire to become a high school teacher and her union
with Roy who had life in New York, she decided to stay in this city. Anyway,
Cooan and Tom would still take some time to leave and everyone was eager to
take a break. From Karaberasu it is necessary to say that she had her son, she
lived her own story and after some vicissitudes she found the longed for
happiness she was looking for. Minako and Artemis kept their word and did their
best to help her, even though she was not aware of it. At least, they thought
so. After time, the others would know about her again. In the meantime, the
girls continued to fight as Justicieras, fighting evil in any way. Each one on
their land. Roy and the other boys also intervened in more serious cases or
natural disasters that needed their help. But they did it always fast and
totally anonymous. So much so that they even disguised their faces with masks
or blind any camera and telephoto lens with their energy auras to avoid being
recognized. Although, in the high spheres of power it was well known who they
were. In any case, the rulers of the world took care of helping them to remain
anonymous and solving any problem about their working lives in exchange for
certain conditions. It was something that the boys soon discovered, although
this is another story ...
So after some time of the revelation of their old
lives, Roy and Beruche watched the starry sky from a window of the boy's
apartment. The boy hugged her from behind and whispered to her remembering
that.
- Now we can be happy, in this world, in this life.
- Yes, I've wanted it so much! - Bertie sighed, unveiling in a quiet
voice. - From the first time I arrived on Earth, in my heart I had the feeling
of being at home. At first I did not pay attention, but later, I felt that I
belonged to this place. I had dreams in which I was flying to a fantastic
world, now I know they were our memories. I just want to be happy next to you
and God let us grow old together.
-We will get it! But I also want to satisfy even two wishes, little cube.-
He smiled to enumerate. - The first one, to be able to finish my degree as it
should be. When I spoke to Miss Parker, she offered to help me as soon as I
needed her. She has kept her word. And also thanks to your help I have pass the
exams that I had. And now, in two weeks, I have the last exam.
-That will be, surely! - She encouraged him. - You're going to make it!
- You were right. When you told me that cheating does not get anything
right. It is deception and lack of confidence that cause ruin. I have been able
to learn this with all our battles and memories of our past lives. Now I am studying
with you and I will pass the latter Examination as the others, with my own
means, without pitfalls, or shortcuts, or tricks, as I promised I would. And
then, I will make you my wife, at last!
Beruche smiled very satisfied and happy.
- Yes, always count on me, sweetie! - She said visibly proudly. -
-And now. - Roy smirked. - Another thing I always wanted to do with you.
-I understand! - She laughed, unbuttoning her blouse. - But we've
already tried that. Like everyone else who has not wasted time. We have had to
wait for a rebirth to consummate our union, it is to laughable! - She added
funny, shaking her head with a big smile. -
-No, no, no, no. - Roy said, bracing her blouse again at Bertie's
stupefaction. - I did not mean that, sweetie. At least not today. - He added
with humor. - I see you remember very well that in our previous life the forces
of evil prevented us from getting married, and we could not consummate our
love. It annoyed me a lot, too. However, we have already solved it lately.
Besides, it's not about that life now, it's about an old dream of this one.
-Yes, and what is it? - She asked, visibly curious. -
- It's much more important now to me than sex. And it seems incredible
that Roy Malden is saying this! - He laughed at himself adding. - Of course it
would be much more proper than Prince Asthel did. But as I have already told
you, it is an old yearning for my childhood. - He smiled enigmatically. -
And as his girlfriend continued with that gesture of
strangeness he decided to clarify the mystery by whispering in her ear that
secret intention and the face of her lit up giving him a long kiss on the lips
to add.
-You're wonderful! You even remember that nonsense I said.
- That to me, it's something I always wanted to do with my girl. - Roy
said with a wink to ask cheerfully. - So, are you ready, Lois?
She nodded with almost infantile enthusiasm and Roy
caught her in his arms sprinting out the window and rising rapidly. Once at a
height he became the Golden Warrior, whom the whole city gazed upon in
admiration, and he exclaimed, flying towards the harbor, while Beruche smiled
wrapped around his neck.
-I always wanted to do this flight with you, like “Superman” ! Do you remember? I was so eager
to take you with me! - He repeated, full of joy. -
-You're a wonderful child Roy! - Do not ever change, please! - The girl laughed
letting him kiss her lips with warmth and adding looking at him with an amused
face. - At least in this ...
They both enjoyed the night lights of the harbor and
after a long round they returned to the apartment ready to start the next day
with another chapter of their new lives. For them and their friends new
experiences and adventures will be open. So their stories are far from over,
they still have many things to live and tell! But that, you will see in other
stories ...
