I lay here.
Waiting for death.
What happened? Well first I should tell you who I am and what I do. My name is Raina, and I am the Senshi of Earth. I fight for love and justice yadda yadda yadda, I never much liked the whole speech crap. A girl you say? No I am quite male believe me I know when I gotta take a piss that I am DEFFINATLY a guy. Where was I oh yeah, why am I dying here. Ok let me tell you this first, I fight for queen Serenity and protect her in times of need, well this was a time of need, you see an army of Youma led by Lady Beryl and her five generals, my former protectors actually, waged war and attacked the solar system, naturally the outer planets fell first because of the distance between here and there is so great that though the outters fought long, hard, and bravely actually doing the most damage to the armies of Youma they were simply overwhelmed by them and fell reinforcements could not make it in time. One by one the inner planets began to fall, the Senshi retreated to the moon in a last attempt to slay the evil on the moon they had not expected such numbers and the giant beast to come so fast. What a fight it was, I personally destroyed thousands of Youma with my attacks. Powerful? MY attacks? Heck no they suck balls, Then how did I kill so many? Simple, the others need to charge they’re attacks I don’t. I just fire. So I may not do much damage but when hit by five shots you do have a tendency to die every now and then. Ok now you know me and why I am here. But did we win? No, finally our queen trapped the great beast with the seven crystals of the imperial silver crystal and transported everyone to the future, all except me. Why? Well have you ever seen a male Senshi? Nope, I am the first and I guess the last. No I don’t wear no goddamn Fuku, I kill myself if I did. I wear armour full plate that is magically enhanced to be light as a feather and hard as diamond, it’s pretty cool actually. Anyways I was a male Senshi and so as like other Senshi I have a differing aura from all others the resurrection spell could not identify my aura so I am unaffected. Why am I dying you ask again ok let me put it this way, when you a ten foot long spear threw your chest that pins you to an ornate pillar lets see how long you live for. Actually I’m surprised I can still think. Hey there’s movement over there my queen is dying as well I see, Man I feel shitty, why? Well think about it, I swore I would protector her and I failed. She lies dying like me, that’s the only upside if she dies here I will follow. Suicidal? Nope, I just feel as though I should die with her, it’s my thoughts. Psychically linked to her I know she is alive and she knows I’m here. Telepathic? Nope the link between us isn’t a telepathic one, or a love bond, or a life bond. No it just tells me where she is and what she’s feeling. As it does with her side.
“Raina?” She whispers. She is lying on a broken pillar with her eyes closed. “Yeah?” I reply without moving, neither of us ever really cared much for protocol and such I don’t call her ‘Her Majesty’ like the others I jus say ‘Serenity’ while she calls me ‘Terra or Raina.’ “You weren’t affected by the spell, I’m sorry, I cannot save you.” There is a deep sadness within her as she realises I am here. “Don’t feel bad.” I say, “Life is going to continue and the others are in the future now, your daughter will be okay and Beryl is sealed away. You have nothing to feel bad about I swore I would protect you and I have failed it is I who should apologize.” The sadness within her fades slightly and she smiles “I am happy we are together, I hope we will be together in the next… life…” The link between us has faded. I know she is dead. I cry, I have never cried before but it hurts so much, much more than the spear or any physical thing. I smiled slightly as the last tear falls to the ground, above me I see a Senshi, the one I’d hoped for. Karyo, the Senshi of Saturn floats high above us. I see the energies gathering as she prepares for her weaker attack. It may be weak but it will leave only a crater where once this palace stood. I smile and look up, she shouts and all goes black.
“So Serenity, I thought we never see each other again.” I say as we both sit here and reminisce on the past. “Neither did I, Raina. Neither did I, but fate knows no bounds and brought us together, tomorrow we will be married you know.” I know, but I love it and I love you.” I say before we kiss again. Who would have thought the resurrection spell would take effect a few seconds before Saturn’s attack. “But Ranma, how are we going to explain this to the others? I honestly doubt that being long dead lovers will work this time.” Ranma smiled to himself. “I dunno know Kasumi, but all I know is tomorrow were gonna have one hell of a day.”
