STOP!! If you haven't read the last chapter yet you're missing one, I replaced 21 Note with the REAL chapter 21! Enjoy!
A/N: So I didn't want to post the last chapter until this one was done mostly because the last one was kinda short…
Rose: not my fault
Vixen: what are you talking about? It's always your fault!
Rose: do you really want to fight this battle…you'll lose
Vixen:…stupid muse
Rose: That's what a thought
Chapter 22
To Plan a Plan
"I want everything, every last miniscule detail of what has been happening and I want it here within the hour." The vixens who had agreed to serve under Usagi's new rule bowed and disappeared. Since her arrival the night before she had made contact with her allies throughout the universe to let them know the status of the invasion of Earth. The vixens already inhabiting the small planet readily agreed to be apart of the new reign, some even being original survivors of the massacre of the moon's people. But that wasn't all, there was even more coming after hearing news of Serenity rebuilding the kingdom of old to once again take place as the rightful ruler of this galaxy. "I want to take everything they hold dear and destroy it before their very eyes."
Dark hugged her from behind, "You know you're kind of sexy when you're vindictive."
Usagi smirked, "you haven't seen anything yet."
A trio of vixens that Usagi had assigned as generals of her slowly growing military appeared. They seemed perfect for the job. The first and most deadly of the sisters was Lasoru, an almost deceivingly innocent woman with military green hair pulled into a ponytail on each side of her head. She clutched a small stitched pink rabbit in her arms and sported a pair of ice blue eyes. The second was Narita, even though she was the shortest of the three, she was the oldest and was known for her leadership and discipline. Her short black hair framed her annoyed brown eyes. And lastly with the ice blue hair and the seductive grey eyes was the strategic Ashayl, the middle child who stood out without any effort. The only telling traits that they were related were the rams horns each sported along with small black wings and forked tails. All pure vixens that shared the rarity of being related and having the same father carried a notable genetic trait such as tails, horns, wings, and even powers.
"What have you to report?"
They bowed in unison, "Majesty, they have done little since your absence; my sources tell me they have been training at amateur levels, not even able to reach arcane abilities. They hold mediocre jobs, a few attending the local university. All in all no real threat."
Usagi nodded at Narita and looked to Ashayl, " Majesty our contacts are ready and in place if you wish to proceed with plan I-2."
"And plan E-N?" Lasoru smiled at Usagi, though it was no where near warm or kind.
"Yes your majesty, but you must decide by tomorrow."
Usagi looked at the three of them and agreed, "I shall give you my decision by 6 Am sharp. Dismissed." The all nodded and disappeared leaving Usagi with her decision. Which plan, which fate would she give this planet? She walked away from the tents and towards the looming fortress of a house.
Later that night she laid starring into the empty darkness of her room and sighed, "Hn." Came the grunt that clearly meant sleep, Usagi looked down to meet Heero's eyes, he tightened his embrace on her in response.
"I can't." With that she rose out of the bed and out of his warm arms. She picked up and placed the nearby silken robe around herself and slipped out of the room. The sounds of drums outside drew her to the large six foot tall window. A fire reaching to the sky was glinting in the distance in her growing camp of followers. She made her way down the stairs and out the door at a determined pace.
Vixens in flowing fabrics adorned with bells and beads danced around the fire in hypnotic circles and rhythm, circling like predators. The music was everywhere almost as if radiating from them as a whole. The sirens started the song but everyone soon joined in,
If you want to live, let live
If you want to go, let go
I'm not afraid to dream, to sleep, sleep forever
I don't need to touch the sky
I just want to feel that high
And you refuse to lift me
Guess it wasn't real after all
Guess it wasn't real all along
If I fall and all is lost
It's where I belong
If you want to live, let live
If you want to go, let go
I'm never gonna be your sweet, sweet surrender
Guess it wasn't real after all
Guess it wasn't real all along
If I fall and all is lost
No light to lead the way
Remember that all alone
Is where I belong
In a dream
Will you give your love to me
Beg my broken heart to beat
Save my life, change my mind?
If I fall and all is lost
No light to lead the way
Remember that all alone
Is where I belong
Cloud Nine by Evanescence
They were drawing energy from each other and Usagi realized the fire was their energy, a large column of red and orange energy swirling and crackling like a living breathing being. It waved hypnotically like the head of a cobra. "What are they doing?" she breathed.
"Calling the others and preparing for battle." Monique watched drawn to the light like a moth to the flame, as were all Vixens on the planet. Usagi nodded in remembrance.
Flashback
"You must understand," The High Vixen's horse had reached her now and Caecus and Doleon touched noses in recognition. "I will not say our race was made for battle, to kill people, but that does not mean we do not have a certain talent for it. Your energy is honing itself, preparing for what you will face. It would not have done so if you hadn't been trained."
End of Flashback
"Do you know which plan you will choose?" Monique asked unaware of Usagi wandering thoughts.
The long shadows seem to embrace the two, "Yes, I believe I do."
A/N: Alright this is where I need some help, I have a few ways I can go but I can't decide and I'm probably going to go ahead and write two versions either way and pick one. I don't know if I want Usagi to toy with the scouts and then destroy them, or kill the scouts and the human race….I'm not to sure. Both will be very interesting and I could very easily go to far or not far enough with both….
Aleric: Heero Yue is his full name, and sorry about the confusion, I had forgotten, but Yue the character is Yue from Card Captor Sakura, two different entities XD. But yes, what I have planned for the scouts will be very bloody indeed, they will not get off the hook, I just don't know if humans will be going down with the ship as well, so to speak. And I'm taking it much slower these days, especially after getting rid of flamers in reviews and ones in real life, once they were gone life got much simpler!
Serenity of the Lake: Alright here's the update that I …ahem…kept hostage, sorry don't kill me!
Yami Chakira: I believe there may be only two more chapters left T.T so sad to be ending it yet I'm really glad as well.
Midnight: I was thinking of an epilogue where I threw another one in there, but three may be the magic number.
Mystic Soldier: Yes all of them, mwahaha, she's allowed to be a little greedy, I mean aren't we all? It's a woman's right to be indulgent every once in a while.
J x Legacy: Of course! No more jerky guys for her, she's quit cold turkey! And I'm glad I didn't disappoint I hope this chapter meets to your approval!
Gummical: XD I still can't pick! I have no idea if the guys will join in the fun or not, so many combos could be made the possibilities are endless! How will I decide?
Silver Moonlight-81: Thanks for encouragement it gets hard when things don't go right especially when fighting health on top of that, but I've gotten almost completely back on my feet! Things have been so much better for me now and I'm even thinking of other story ideas!
Ceralyn: Well I get the idea a long time, was watching an anime and hated the mary sue thing (where the main character has almost every fall in love with him/her) so I said alright I can do the non annoying version of that ha! And Voila! Yes yes Darien will get it the worst it always bother me how easily he gave up on her CONSTANLY! I mean don't get me wrong, some of my fav fanfic is serena/dare, usa/mamoru, but sometime that guy just gets on my nerves.
Katfreak: I was thinking of having Saturn not betray her but I thought it was overplayed, the whole one of them defies the rest thing, plus I don't think they could pull off the power to banish her if they weren't all in on it, anyways I'm happy you liked the chapter!
Fire Dolphin: I love love love hearing my story is unique, you have no idea, I mean like most authors I take little things I see or hear and make it my own but I always believe the base of story should be your own you know? Thanks for reviewing!
Zero Skye: XD your review made my day! Couldn't stop laughing, always thought the reviews are half the story, kinda like the hidden party behind the words sorta thing, either way I'm having difficulty cranking out the rest of the story, the other chapters came so easily that I don't think I want to end it but I know if I don't it'll haunt me! Sigh, what's an author to do but finish eh?
Queen of the Spiders: Thank you Thank you. Love to hear from you.
Sagutcheway-06: It was lost!! The horror!! T.T no I get what you mean same thing happens to me and it drives me crazy not being able to find the story I'm looking for, I'm glad I was able to write it with such reread ability that was always a tough one for me, timeless jokes are key! And who doesn't love Lestat, you just wanna steal him and hide him away and… do things that I can not mention…XD.
IceAlkhuan: The pleases have it! Just kidding serious overhaul in my life made it impossible for me to write let alone update, but it's getting better so the story should sadly be finished soon!
Midnight: Doesn't it? I would love to have three bishies to myself! And you can just google Dark and type in D N Angel after it in the images options, there are sooo many good pics of him.
Sousie: Thank you! I'm always happy for a review! Sorry it took so long to update.
LadyBug: Always love to hear from you! And thanks for the advice, I don't mind negative comments in the least bit, as long as they're constructive and there's logic behind it. But some people just want to hate and that's to bad but I won't take it lying down! Just like Usa, no one has the right to make you feel bad about yourself. Well I got this out as fast as I could now that I can actually focus, just sad that's it's almost done.
xoxSerenityxox: Lol! Thank you, and I'm sure your sox are fabulous! Thanks for sticking with me so long it always means a lot to me! Hope you can stick around till the end, it's sure to be a bang!
Kayla: Thank you! I still can't believe how long ago I started this, it seems like just yesterday. Time is funny like that I guess! But I'm excited for the ending yet a little sad, I had so much fun writing this, and to think the first chapter spawned out of teenage angst! Glad I'm past that but that doesn't me I don't like writing the dark chapters those are my favorite part!
Lightgazer888: Thanks! I always like to use recognizable characters but ones that haven't been overdone. I think that always makes it easier to read because then this story doesn't blend in with the other look a likes!
Warrior Nun: "…" is what they put as their name since they went anonymous, I believe the review is still up under chapter 20 reviews. I'm not afraid to keep it posted since it was cowardly not to put their name on it.
Solar Winds: No it's not like blood clots but it's about as bad, there was a bacterial infection trying to make its way to my kidneys causing internal bleeding, the body's way of a kind of warning system going off that something is very wrong. But I've been taking it easy and gotten much better! And the puppy eyes really got to me! I mean look a review only a few weeks later! Thanks for reading!
