6 The Taste of Blood
7 by The Ghost of 'lectricity
9 The taste of blood on my lips. That's all I have
10 left of her. Sweet and bitter. Warm. I can still
11 feel it.
13 The blade went smoothly through her chest. Into
14 her left breast slicing her heart in two. When
15 the first trickles of blood appeared she was
16 still smiling. How could you have done this to
17 me? How could you have asked that of me?
19 "You have to do it. When I die the Ginzuishou
20 will restore everything. I die so everyone else
21 can live. It has to be this way. And you have to
22 do it. Only the destructive power of Saturn can
23 kill me."
25 It was so easy. When the blade went through her
26 flesh I couldn't feel any resistance. Soon her
27 whole dress - white before - was red with her
28 blood.
30 When she was lying there, the Ginzuishou keeping
31 her still alive, she opened her mouth to speak. I
32 brought my face closer so she wouldn't strain
33 herself too much. She told me to close my eyes.
34 Then she put her hands to the sides of my face
35 and brought my face closer to hers. She kissed
36 me. Lightly. Sweetly. Gently. But all that filled
37 my mind was the taste of blood on my lips. No
38 emotions came up.
40 When I opened my eyes she had closed hers
41 already. A single tear fell onto her eyelid. I
42 got up and turned to walk away. Behind me I felt
43 warmth, but it wasn't her warmth, it was the
44 power of the Ginzuishou. Pink ribbons began
45 flying everywhere, green plants began covering
46 the gray surface, the black emptiness above was
47 replaced by a blue sky and white clouds. The
48 puffy ones, the ones she loved so much. She
49 always recognized some animals or people in them.
51 The princess of the Moon possesses the ability
52 to contain its power while the Princess of Saturn
53 possesses the ability to unleash it. That is what
54 she told me once. Then she added that we are the
55 perfect couple and we laughed. Life will begin
56 anew, no, it will be restored, now that she is
57 dead.
59 Now I am on Saturn, an outcast from the Moon
60 Kingdom. The Senshi exiled me here because I
61 never explained what happened. They thought I
62 killed the Princess and so I did, that is why I
63 do not wish to go back.
65 When I am alone I can feel it. The warmth. It's
66 not the power of her protecting crystal, but her
67 warmth that I feel. When I close my eyes I can
68 recall our first kiss but with that her last
69 minutes. And the taste of blood on my lips. So I
70 don't. I'm content in the warmth that surrounds
71 me ever since.
