The Element Soldiers / By: ChibiEve
PART FIVE- The Holder of the Elements

	As the light parted, they were no longer in Lita's apartment. They were on an island in the middle of the ocean. A vast forest lay behind them, and a volcano layed in the distance. Rocks lined the edges of the island.
	Raye appeared. She stood upon the burning lava flowing down the island to the water. Amy appeared in the calm gentle waters of the ocean. Lita sat in a tall tree budding with flowers in the forest. Amara stood upon the sharp rocks on the shore.
	Trista, Michelle, Mina, Darien, and Rini stood watching in awe. Suddenly, Serena appeared. She was in a long pink dress, with a crown upon her head. On the crown was the fire of Mars, the Water of Mercury, the leaves of Jupiter, and the rocks of Uranus. A moon lay in the center, and she held the Element Crystal in her hand.
	The Element sailors gasped.
	" Sailor Moon... is the Holder of the Elements..." Gina gasped.
	" I don't believe it..." Kiara said.
	" We were so wrong..." Harriet said.
	Renee just smiled at Serena.
	Serena smiled upon them. " My children..." she said. " You have search high and low for me. And now your wishes are fullfilled. What are you thinking?"
	" I am so happy we have finally found you," Gina said.
	" It was wrong of us not to trust you and your team, Holder of the Elements," Kiara said.
	" I know what you have gone through," Serena continued. " As I look upon your faces, I see signs of betrayal, and pain. I know now why you did not trust us. But I am here now. No more pain... no more betrayal."
	The Element Soldiers grew wings upon their backs and flew up to join Sailor Moon. They all bowed as long white dresses replaced their sailor suits.
	" We are in your honor," Harriet said.
	" But in sadness, we do not need your leadership anymore," Renee said. " But we are happy to know we have a leader, and that the almighty power was in your hands."
	Serena smiled. " I understand," she said. " You will always be welcome in my court. Please visit whenever you please."
	" Again we are sorry," Gina apologized.
	" Is there a way to get back the crystals?" Serena asked.
	Gina looked down. " I do not know. I am sorry, Holder of the Elements."
	And with that, the Element sailors flew off into the sky.
	Serena returned to the ground, along with Amy, Raye, Lita, and Amara.
	She examined the crystal. " I do not believe that this can be penetrated."
	Amara suddenly put her hand upon the crystal. Amy, Raye, and Lita did the same. A new light shone and the crystal broke up into the four crystals. They each returned to their rightful owners, and everyone appeared in their sailor suits again. They were sent back to Lita's apartment.
	Serena collapsed.
	" Serena!" they all yelled. They all ran to her side.
	Serena gave a weak chuckle. " To think... I was their leader..."

	A year had passed. There was no sign of the Element sailors. Everyone's powers were once again working, and life was peaceful.
	Serena, Amy, and Lita sat in English class.
	" Excuse me class," Miss Haruna said. " But we have two new students."
	A girl with green hair and another girl with blue hair entered.
	" This is Renee and this is Kiara," Miss Haruna said. " I hope you will all welcome them and be very nice to them."
	They took a seat next to the scouts. They smiled.
	" Hello, Holder of the Elements," Kiara said with a small bow. She then sat next to Amy.
	" Thank you for all your help, Serena," Renee said. She gave a small bow and sat next to Lita.
	Serena smiled.

	Raye grumbled in her Litature class. The teacher suddenly stopped as a girl with red hair entered.
	" Oh yes," she said. " Class, this is Harriet. She is new here. I hope you treat her with respect."
	Harriet smiled at Raye and took a seat next to her.
	" Welcome to T*A," Raye whispered with a wink. Harriet smiled.

	Amara and Michelle sat in class at Muegn Gauken as they studied for a test. The teacher suddenly clapped his hands as a signal to be quiet.
	" We have a new student, class," he said as a white haired girl walked in. " This is Gina. Gina, you may take a seat next to Amara."
	Amara smiled and winked as Gina sat down. Gina smiled back.
	" Thank you," she said.
