Argh... I KNOW I promised the chapter last week... but I was suddenly
bombarded by all the schoolwork I'd been putting off. ^_^; Anyway, hope
everyone'll be (at least somewhat) interested in this... and be patient 'til
next week when I get the whole thing done.
Thanks for reading. :)

_______________________________
As the birth of Serenity's child draws near, Faustine begins preparations for
the culmination of her plan...
"Will the baby save the world?"
"No... she will more likely destroy it."
...as a traitor lurks in the shadows of the Crystal Palace. And Rei begins
the hunt for Daburu...
"Lady Hino has organized a search party, Daburu, and she's out for blood.
Yours."
As Haruka confronts Michiru with a strange companion in tow... A man she
claims as her husband, and the prophecy fulfiller...
"Borne of wind
Borne of fire
She is child of the mire
Thoughts of darkness,
thoughts of light
Thoughts of peril plague
the night
Borne of goodness
Borne of right
He is child of the fight
Their ascension will rise higher
As our cries be doused with ire
For his bane is her desire..."
...And Hotaru realizes that there is only one course left to save their
world...
"Could you do it? Kill all of us, your daughter, your friends... just to stop
Faustine?"
...DEATH...
"Hotaru, could you live with that? Could you carry that burden?"
...REBORN...
"...Do you really think it could be that simple?"
