Chapter: A question of being

A few months later.
The university used all my energy. But my concentration wasn't exactly good and I often let myself be distracted by trivial things. Around noon today I decided to skip my last two lectures as well as the astrology course. I strolled through the city and was looking forward to the upcoming Christmas party. My parents were planning a big party and invited the whole family. I had a lot of uncles and aunts and of course nieces and nephews. Even my grandmother, who had moved to England, wanted to come. Lost in thought, I tried to remember Festival on the Moon. After a while I passed a game center and saw a handsome young man at the counter. He had blonde hair and green eyes. I went in and looked around. An almost 23 year old woman in a game center, it came to my mind. I looked at the different games and noticed that Minako was standing next to the boy. I went up to her smiling.“Hello Minako!” She turned to me and smiled. "Aiko! May I introduce you? This is Kazuya. He is Motoki's brother, he used to work here." I nodded to him and ignored him, because I saw a 14 year old girl appear next to Minako. She had two pointed buns and pink hair. I was amazed. The girl looked so much like me. Kazuya took turns looking back and forth between me and the stranger. Like me, he was amazed. Minako noticed and acted. She rushed out with us and pulled us not far to Bunny's parents' house. There in Bunny's room we sat on the couch. Usagi and Minako with the strange girl across from me. I could only look at the girl the whole time. Bunny sit down next to me. “Bunny, who is this girl?” She took my hand and smiled. "This is my daughter! Mamoru and I have a daughter together! One day I will be the ruler of the earth!" I couldn't believe it.This girl was my younger sister's daughter. “The Silver Empire will rise again?” Bunny nodded, laughing. I got up. How could she. I was deeply hit. How stubborn she was. "Bunny, when the royal family of the moon is resurrected, then time will change and all members of the court from then will rise again. Do you think it is fair that your resurrection should be the fate of all? Do you mean the Shinko and I be the one." want who we once were? Don't you think that the Sailor Warriors should lead their own lives without the monarchy? I don't understand you! "I was in shock, but what I said to her came from the bottom of my heart and I felt myself wanted to show the princess in me, but I refused to let it. I turned away and left.

Outside only a few rays of sunshine could be seen. I had a headache, another memory throbbed in my head that suddenly awoke in me. A unique shock passed through me.I tried to keep my thoughts together and trudged through the streets until I got to the port. The weather changed to stormy and let my hair fly in the wind. I stared defiantly at the sea. I felt someone was behind me and I drove around. Kibó stood behind me. He was wearing a long white coat and was facing me. His look, yes, he was known for that by mother even then. “You don't even have to look at me like that, Kibó!” She walked towards me. "She's not Serenity! Not now ... here she's just Bunny!" I asked him to stop. I looked at him stubbornly. "Bunny ... you are wrong ... I know her ... even if not for a long time in this life. She has not changed since then. Deep in her is the little moon princess Serenity from back then. I see her very clearly . I understand your sense of justice, to stand up for the poor and the weaker as well as for everyone. Nothing has happened here for years ..... but I can feel it .... every element on this earth is changing.The warriors unconsciously ask for growth and power to stand by their queen ..... why does she want to be queen? "Kibó was silent. He could easily give his opinion to anyone, but not about this woman. She was his sister. She had refused the throne at the time. Did she regret it?" Aiko, you didn't want the throne. Even then, you simply pushed this on Serenity. Mother was convinced that you would continue the lunar kingdom. Why did you have to travel with Uranus and Neptune? "I couldn't believe how bold he got. A wave rose inside me." Bunny ... is unable to be queen already. She is too young. I made the decision back then because I didn't want any life at court. But ..... if you don't accept it, I will claim the throne as the oldest daughter of the moon! "For Kibó they were revealing, harsh words. As the first daughter she had a difficult position. Kibó could not lead the throne, he was a boy, the law said that only the female members of the lunar family were allowed to be regents.I closed my eyes. I knew that if I were to be crowned queen I would break inside. But what was left for me? Bunny at the age of almost 20 still had a good 2 years to prepare for the future. I felt his hand on my shoulder and a wave ran through me. His warmth. He sent me a specific reminder and I winced. I had roused them earlier in my anger. “Kibó, do you know where she is?” He shook his head. “But it's better that way, you always believed that the past should rest!” I felt so bad. Most of all I would like to run and it was only with great effort that I held back from transforming myself. I was trembling with the effort. No ... Justice was a thing of the past ... I couldn't just jump back and forth between my two lives.
In the corner of my eye I saw long blond hair and through that little moment of inattention I allowed the feeling and the glowing warmth penetrated from my heart.I had changed. I looked at Bunny and she had tears in her eyes. She ran up to me and I kissed her forehead. The golden family crest adorned her forehead and golden light let her transform. I looked into her eyes and said firmly: "Bunny or / and Serenity ... I'm so sorry. I know why you want to be queen. Inner peace. Past, present and future united in us. With your husband who is also in This life was reborn. I hope .... no, I know that you have the strength to break the eternal curse of rebirth. With your daughter you will succeed. "I gripped the petite figure more tightly and then let go. Bunny aka Sailor Moon or Serenity looked at me. "You understand. Only if you allow yourself to be Justice, Sailor Luna and Aiko, you have found your inner peace." Kibó took his sisters by the shoulder and looked skyward. The storm was no longer so strong.The sea still rushed against the quay wall and the wind ruffled their hair, but in the eyes of the moon children there was deep contentment and harmony of hearts.
