Title: Alternate Identities, Prologue Author: Mina, Warrior Princess Rating: For THIS part- PG-13, only a little language, but severe battling and emotion, lots of deaths, and a suicide.... Feedback: sailor_v@mail.com Disclaimer: I don't own Sailorvenus or any of the other characters in Sailormoon, nor do I own Cye (though I wish I did ^_-) or the other Ronin Warriors aka Samurai Troopers. Author's Note: Hola, Minna-san! It's me again, Mina Warrior Princess aka Sailorvenus on Crack. This is a *brand new fic* I'm writing about the cast of Sailor Moon and the Ronin Warriors being reborn. (So, it's a crossover!) This is my first crossover ever, so please bear with me!! It sort of lies in one of those 'alternate timeline' type thingies, where the villians are different and there is an entirely different plot from the anime or manga, so don't get too confused. Also, the main idea of this story was taken from my senior accquaintance at school Shane, aka Ryo on Crack. Since you keep saying you are going to write this, and never actually do, I decided to take the bull by the horns and do it myself, MY WAY... with MINA as the main character... NOT RYO! ^_~ Also, a shout out to my best buddy Usagi, my biggest fan as an author!! She's also inspired part of this story (along with Darius aka Darien in this story, and his way whacked ideas..) Luv ya Usa-girl!!! YOU ROCK!! Later, guys! ~ Luv , Venus ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ A l t e r n a t e * I d e n t i e s ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ p r o l o g u e "VENUS LOVE AND BEAUTY.... SHOCK!!!!!" A long battle raged on, and Sailor Venus realized she, along with the others, had pretty much lost all hope of winning. There was no way her and the other Inner Senshi could beat this demon... not without the Outers, anyway. And they were already dead. Haruka..... Michiru...... Setsuna...... Along with Rowen..... Kento..... Sage...... Mina wiped a tear from her eye thinking about them. ' No time for crying now, ' she told herself. ' You've gotta protect the Princess... it's your DESTINY..... ' ' Screw destiny, she angrily thought. ' If it wasn't for following DESTINY, I could have had Cye... Cye. He could have been mine. But now, he's Ami's. And I'm stuck with that bastard Kento. Thank God he's gone....... ' Suddenly Mina was overcome with anger, and directed it at the closest demon to her. "I'm SUPER SAILOR VENUS! V is FOR VICTORY! And in the name of Venus, you're gonna pay!!!! VENUS LOVE ME....... CHAIN!!!!!!!" ' Why is it always ME who's stuck, in the end? ' She thought, crying furiously. 'WHY IS IT ALWAYS ME WHO ENDS UP ALONE?!?!?!?!? ' Suddenly, Makoto was down. She was gone. Her body disappeared into dust. No.. .... NO!!!!! MAKOTO!!!! Ami came next, her weak body falling to the ground. Mina watched as the one man she loved ran over to help Sailor Mercury. "Cye... I'm giving you my goodbye.. dearest...." "I promise, I'll never leave you.... I love you too much....." "Go. You have to fight the enemy. You have to help my friends... protect the Princess.... we must protect her... Usagi... the.... Prin-....." And she never finished her sentence. Mina could hear Cye scream with the pain of losing his love. It pained her to hear it. To know that he would never be screaming like that if she herself was to die. And to know that it was finished.... to know that life was over for the senshi.... "MINAKO!!! COME ON!!!!! KEEP FIGHTING!!!!" "REI..... MAKOTO AND AMI ARE GONE...." "I KNOW!!! I LOVED THEM TOO, BUT WE HAVE TO PROTECT USAGI!!!!" Protect Usagi. In all of the world, she thought there was no one she loved more than Usagi... her dearest Princess... But she soon realized what it really was that was holding her back... "YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS!!!! SUPER..... WAVE...... SMA-" A demon took a hold of the crying and emotionally destroyed Cye, and blasted him furiously with energy. Energy powerful enough to.... "Give me your energy, and you can save your sweet little Sailor Mercury." "My..... energy...." "NOOO!!!!" Minako screamed, but no one heard her. "Yes. Give me your life, and in return, you may have her's. She can still live." "Very well..... take me then......" "CYE!!!!!!!!!" Venus screamed again, with more terror in her voice than anyone had ever heard, running towards the light blue armored warrior. But it was too late. The demon dropped Cye's nearly lifeless body to the ground. Mina, sobbing hysterically, touched his face, and would watch his eyes shut for the last time. "Cye..... no...... I love you..... I've always loved you......" She kissed him passionately on the lips, while Rei and Usagi looked on in shock... Mina knew well that this was her one last opportunity to ever do so. His blue eyes opened and glistened with surpise, and he smiled. And the last thing he said was, "Venus, I already... knew..." Minako screamed. It was over. She had nothing to live for. Running over to the area where Neptune last lie, she picked up her Aqua Mirror, and pointed at it. Sailor Mars and Moon knew well what she was going to do. "NOOOO!!!! MINAKO!!!!!!" They screamed. "CRESCENT ........ BEEEEEEEEEAM!!!!!!" Super Sailor Venus had used her own power on herself, the mirror had reflected her beam of light energy. She fell violently, feeling the anguish of losing so many of her loved ones, and the pain of her Crescent Beam. Her last words were, "I'm so... sorry.... that I couldn't protect you, Usagi..." And with that, the battle was over. Rei and Usagi were too overcome to fight. And after Rei died, Ryo had no will to fight. He died, and shortly after, Usagi had nothing more to do but use the Crystal. Tuxedo Kamen had been no where in sight, the entire battle. "COSMIC..... MOON........ POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!" She did, and successfully sealed away the evil demons, for now. But died from the loss of energy. And then, they were all reborn again, by Saturn's powers of Silence. ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ e n d p r o l o g u e ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
