Part 25: The Two Faces of the Moon

Sarcolite and Dioptasio joined their hands and attacked Eudial with their Doom Double Attack.
A huge sphere of black power formed in front of the two brothers and headed at high speed towards Eudial.
Eudial closed her eyes and crossed her arms in front of her face and a halo of power surrounded all her body.
The sphere of power disappeared before touching Eudial.
Dioptasio was upset: "It's incredible! She could reflect our Double Attack so easily!"
Sarcolite grinned: "Congratulations, sister! Your powers improved a lot...Too bad for you that even I and Dioptasio are much stronger! Are you ready to know the true fear, Eudial?"
"I'm not afraid of death, Sarcolite, so you can't scare me. The only thing I want is to kill you. Your death is more important for Earth than my life."

Silver trembled.
He and the girls could see and hear what was happening inside the wall of power, but they couldn't help Eudial in any way.
"Please, Eudial, don't talk in such way..." He thought "You know that your life is more important than the whole universe for me..."
Usagi touched Silver's shoulder: "So Yuuko was Eudial..."
Silver nodded.
Usagi weakly smiled at him: "We must trust Eudial. I'm sure she can win her brothers, she won't die!"

Sarcolite laughed at Eudial's words: "So you're not afraid of death...Don't worry, what we are going to do is much more painful than death...If we kill you immediately, you won't be able to see your friends suffering and praying for death...We're going to have a lot of fun with you and your dear sailor senshi..."
Eudial looked at him coldly: "Oh, really? We'll see. Don't forget that I am your sister and if I want, I can be wicked like you and even more..."
Sarcolite and Dioptasio attacked again, but Eudial jumped and used her new Doom's Warrior's powers.
She floated over them and rose her arms to the sky.
Immediately, lots of lighting of black light surrounded the witch and seemed to enter in her body.
Eudial crossed her arms over her head and attacked: "DOOM'S FLASH SURROUND!"
A circle of power appeared around Sarcolite and Dioptasio shutting them in the middle of the circle and giving them an electric shock.
They screamed in pain, but succeeded in setting themselves free.
Eudial drop herself to the ground panting.

Sarcolite and Dioptasio raised themselves.
Dioptasio wiped some blood off his face: "Sister, you used all your powers now! Now it's our turn!"
They grabbed each the hand of the other and joined their powers. A hand of power sorted from their united hands and headed towards Eudial.
The witch was slammed to the ground several times.
Silver ran towards the wall of power and tried to jump trough it, but he was repelled.
He looked at the wounded witch: it seemed that Eudial had no hopes against her brothers.
"Eudial-chan! Please don't give up!" he screamed "I trust you! You can win! Don't let them to kill you!!"
Eudial looked at Silver an suddenly she took a decision: "Yes, I can still beat them..." she thought "I can't let them to kill all my friends. Forgive me, Silver, but I'll do that for your good too..."
She raised and closed her eyes. The Eclipses' Crystal appeared between her hands.

Silver screamed: "NO! EUDIAL!!!! YOU CAN'T DO THAT AGAIN!!!!"
Eudial looked at him very sadly: "Please remember that, Silver: I love you." then she turned towards her brothers and rose the Eclipses' Crystal "ECLIPSES CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!"
For the second time in her life, she transformed in the Eclipses' Goddess.
Silver kneeled down crying; the senshi gasped.
Sarcolite and Dioptasio stood in front of her and got ready to fight.
Suddenly, the Sun began to being covered by the Moon.
Usagi stared at the Eclipses' Goddess and at the Sun: "No! I won't let you sacrifice Eudial's body! You can attack Eudial's brothers using the eclipses' power, but you'd kill Eudial while doing that! I'm the princess of the Moon and I won't let you use it to eclipse the Sun!"
Usagi transformed in Princess Serenity and walked trough the wall of black power.
The Eclipse Goddess turned towards her and she smiled: "Usagi-chan, that's me, I'm Eudial!"
Everyone stared at her.
"Yes, I'm Eudial." she continued "I can use the Eclipses' Goddess' powers without letting her to send my soul away from my body, now. Usagi, help me to get rid of evil!"
Usagi nodded and touched the hand of the witch. A halo of light surrounded them.
"I am the princess of the moon..." Usagi said.
"...and I'm the mistress of the moon shadow..." Eudial continued.
"...together, we are two faces of the same planet, we're the fighters of the Moon and we'll punish you!" they said at the same time.
Usagi smiled: "Girls! Please, give us your powers!"
All the senshi closed their eyes, the symbols on their forehead enlightened and little, colored sparkles of power entered in Usagi's body.
Even the witches closed their eyes and the black stars on their necks changed their colors and entered in Eudial's body.
Silver and Mamoru stood up and their clothes changed and the two boys became Prince Endymion and Lord Aster.
Usagi closed her eyes.
Eudial touched the moon on Usagi forehead: "ECLIPSE OF MOON POWER, PLANETS LINE UP!"
The powers of Usagi and Eudial summed and the two girls attacked Sarcolite and Dioptasio.
The two boys countered the attack with their joined powers.
The wall of black power shattered.
Silver and Mamoru grabbed Eudial and Usagi's hands and gave them their powers.
The powers of two the girls increased and hit Sarcolite and Dioptasio. The two brothers disappeared.
Eudial and Usagi detransformed and the witch passed out in her boyfriend's arms.

Eudial could feel Silver's voice and she opened her eyes.
Silver hugged her: "Eudial-chan! You are well!!"
Usagi smiled at her: "You did it! You defeated Sarcolite and Dioptasio!"
Eudial smiled back to her: "No, Usagi, we defeated them. I couldn't have done anything without your help. Thank you, girls."
"By the way," Mimet asked "did you kill them?"
Eudial shook her head: "I don't think they are dead, but I'm sure I destroyed their powers for good and I sent them in another part of the planet. I don't know where they are now, but I'm sure they can't hurt people anymore..."
Silver put an arm around her shoulders and smiled: "Now we can have some peace...I'm so happy, Eudial!"
Eudial looked sweetly at him: "I love you, Silver..."
They kissed.

Haruka and Michiru were looking at them.
"Michiru, do you remember when Eudial fought against us?"
Michiru smiled: "How could I forget? She stole my heart crystal!"
"Who could ever imagine that she was going to save the world instead of destroying that?! It's strange to see how much she changed her behavior."
Michiru leaned her head on Haruka's shoulder and looked at the stars: "You're right, Haruka-chan, but don't forget that she's not a common girl. She's half human, but she's also a witch. And we can't say what can happen deep in a witch's heart."
