SAILOR MOON/GODZILLA: ROAR OF THE BEAST
					  The Finale

	The Senshi watched as Serenity covered in a golden glow, turned to 
face Space Godzilla as she floated in midair in front of the moon 
which had come out in full bloom in the, now night, sky.  Watched as 
she aimed the Ginzuishou at the beast and fired a blast with the 
command of, "COSMIC MOON POWER!!!"

	The white beam of power struck Space Godzilla hard in the left 
shoulder crystal, shattering it like glass.  This time however, it 
did not regenerate.  Godzillas dorsal fins glowed and he fired a 
burst of radioactive fire at the other crystal, destroying it utterly.
  Godzilla fired another beam of radioactive fire, this time striking 
Space Godzilla dead on.  Serenity fired another beam of white light 
and struck Space Godzilla, as it roared, right in the mouth, as if to 
say, "Eat me will you!?!"

	Space Godzilla staggered backwards in pain, but Godzilla could see 
that this fight would require something a little more... powerful, to 
end it.  Flashes of light escaped Godzillas form, red crackles of 
radioactive energy crawled along his body, his fins went incandescent 
and this time when he opened his mouth, a large cone of red fire came 
out and struck his foe.  He fired several more burst, each striking 
hard.  Serenity also fired several more blasts from the Ginzuishou.  
Space Godzilla tried to fire back but instead of its yellow lightning,
 nothing came out of its mouth.  Serenity and Godzilla alternated 
between red fire bursts and white blasts of the Ginzuishou.  Finally, 
inevitably, Space Godzilla fell to the ground.  It let out a 
pitifully weak growl and Serenity knew that this was the end for it.

	Space Godzilla thought it wasn't fair.  It had come so close to 
getting its revenge.  It couldn't end like this....... but it would.

	The Moon Princess and the King Of The Monsters let out their most 
powerful blasts at the exact same instant and Space Godzilla let out 
one last cry before the overload of power caused every cell in its 
body to explode.  The explosion of Space Godzilla reached up a good 
five miles and some people would come to say that it probably could 
have been seen from space.  Godzilla let out a roar of victory, but 
Serenity knew the fight was not completely over yet.  There was one 
last detail to take care of.

	As she had expected, small spheres of light began to fly upward 
trying to escape into space.  She used the crystals power to catch 
the globes and then began to mutate them.  She talked to the globes 
as if she expected them to understand her, and they just might have.  
"For reasons I do not know," she began, "I have been able to steal a 
large portion of your power and so I will use it to turn you back 
into what you were meant to be.

	"You started life as an experiment of a scientist to save the life 
of his daughter by putting her spirit into a rose and making you live 
forever with the help of Godzilla Cells.

	"However, you mutated into Biollante.  A creature of good, but two 
defeats at the hands of Godzilla changed you.  You mutated again into 
Space Godzilla and became evil.  Your evil ends now."

	Serenity unleashed the last of Space Godzillas stolen power, the 
globes rushed towards each other and in a bright flash, they merged 
and a small object fell to the ground.

	Godzilla had watched the entire show and he saw that he was no 
longer required.  He let out a roar of farewell to the small being 
that had helped him and turned to head for home.

	Serenity floated down towards the roof that her friends were on and 
as they approached her, she smiled warmly at them, transformed back 
into Sailor Moon..........

	....and promptly fell flat on her face.  The others rushed towards 
her in concern and they saw that see was still surrounded by a golden 
glow.  She looked up as her friends came towards her and tried to 
weakly say, "Wait.... I would like a hug right now but...."

	Too late.  As soon as he was by her side Tuxedo Kamen flung his arms 
around her and hugged her tight.  A wet, gushy sound emitted from 
Sailor Moon and when Tuxedo pulled back, a large golden smear stained 
the front of his costume.  "Ugh," he gagged, "What is this stuff?"

	Now that they were closer they could see that Usagis glow was the 
result of a golden slime which covered her from head to toe.  "I 
don't know," she replied, "but I've practically been soaking in this 
gunk since.... How long was I in there for?" she raised a hand as she 
changed her mind, "Never mind.  I don't really want to know."

	Mercury had her computer out and was analyzing the substance, "It a 
highly conductive, organic, soluble substance.  With enzymes that 
specialize in the production of sugars and starches from a plasma 
based charge."

	"HUH????????????????????????????????" everybody exclaimed.

	Mercury translated, "The substance is how Space Godzilla 'ate its 
dinner', and when you took some of it with you when you escaped, the 
Ginzuishou probably was able to tap into Space Godzillas energy 
reserves.  Also, don't worry about it being radioactive or eating 
away at your skin.  It's harmless."

	They all watched as Godzilla slowly walked out of sight.  "So Mako," 
Moon asked as they transformed back to their normal forms, "are you 
not afraid of Godzilla anymore?"

	Makoto shot Usagi a "you must be kidding" look, and replied, "I'm 
still terrified, but I think if I ever have to face him again I'll 
pull through."

	Minako had found something amid the rubble and picked it up.  It was 
a blue and white rose.  "What kind of rose is this?" she asked.

	Setsuna looked at it and then she remembered something from her days 
in Crystal Tokyo, "A rose," she answered, "that will live forever."

	Usagi nodded and said, "Let's go home.  I need a serious bath, big 
time."

	"No kidding," Rei replied holding her nose, "that stuff stinks to 
high heaven.  Don't you dare get too close to me on the way home."

	"You should know about things that stink... like your grades!"

	"Look who's talking!"

	"Yeah, a better person then you!"

	"AAAAARRRRGGHHH!!!!"

	Rei stuck her tounge out, expecting Usagi to do the same, but 
instead she got a faceful of the gold slime.

				SAILOR MOON/GODZILLA:
				 ROAR OF THE BEAST
					Aftermath

	Serenity and Godzilla released their most powerful bursts at the 
same instant and Space Godzilla was blown up into a huge fireball.  
All the Senshi cheered.  Jupiter was surprised to hear that hers was 
the loudest of them all.

	A long pause followed and then, without any warning, Godzilla turned 
his head and bit Serenity in half.  Everyone stood, dead silent, 
unable to believe what had happened.  Impossibly loud crunches 
emmited from the monsters mouth as he chewed the mortal remains of 
their friend, followed by a loud gulp.

	Then, a savage growl escaping his lips, Godzilla turned and faced 
the Senshi.  All of them screamed as the giant saurian unleashed his 
red heat beam at them all.  Sailor Jupiter cringed, waiting for the 
end and was surprised when the heat blast didn't hit her.

	The other Senshi weren't so lucky and were atomized in a split 
second, a black scorch mark the only remains.  "NOOOOOOOOO," Jupiter 
cried as white hot lightning surrounded her, "YOU BASTARD!!!"

	She unleashed her strongest lightning blast she had ever unleashed 
in her life.  It turned night into day and left a crater the size of 
a city block.  When the light faded and her eyes adjusted, Sailor 
Jupiter looked and saw.....

	The nightmare creature, the destroyer, the fear bringer, the killer.


	Godzilla.

	He roared, completely unharmed and stormed towards the small little 
mite which had dared to fight him.  He picked Jupiter up with his 
hand and held her so the two were eye to eye.  Then he threw her away 
like so much trash.

	Jupiter flew through the air but it was Makoto who impacted into the 
building.  Makoto looked up through the haze and the blood that fell 
down into her eyes and looked as Godzilla reared back, preparing to 
fire.

	Suddenly, he stopped.  A strange look passed over his face and with 
a small growl, he turned and started to walk away.  "No," Mako 
whispered as she tried to stand on pain numbed legs, "Don't walk away 
from me.  Finish it.  Ya hear me.  Finish it."

	She broke down and cried, whispering "Finish it," like a plea, over 
and over again.

	That more then anything else in the dream was what woke her.

	She sat up, gasping for breath.  She looked around her apartment and 
the fact that it had withstood several monster rampages in the past, 
including this recent one, was enough to get her heart to its normal 
pace. Her head however, was still racing.

	Elsewhere....

	Usagi thrashed on her motel bed and was awakened as Chibi-Usa kicked 
her sleepily with her legs and mumbled, "Stop hoggin' the covers."

	Usagi normally would have yelled at her that she wasn't but the 
current situation stopped her from doing so.  She didn't want to wake 
up the rest of the family.

	Their house, fortunately, had not been destroyed.  However, Godzilla 
had come close enough on his rampage towards Space Godzilla that all 
the utilities, like water and electricity had been knocked out.  So, 
until they were restored, the Tsukino clan had checked into a local 
motel. Unfortunately, so had just about everybody else in the city 
and they were only able to get one room for the five of them.

	"I need some fresh air," she thought to herself.

	Usagi stood and started to walk but stopped as she almost stepped on 
her brother, who had lost the game of "Rock, Paper, Scissor" and was 
forced to sleep on the floor.  She grabbed her coat and stepped 
outside.  She breathed in the night air and looked at the stars.  
"Funny," she thought, "It was only two nights ago that I was with 
Mamo-chan and was doing the exact same thing.  If I had known that 
shooting star would have caused all this...."

	"Are you all right?" a voice above her asked.

	Usagi looked up and saw a small black cat looking down at her.  
"Hello Luna," she said to the cat, "I'm okay, I guess."

	Luna leaped off the overhang of the door and landed on Usagis 
shoulder.  Luna got a close look at her charge and gasped, "Usagi.  
Your covered in sweat!  You've probably sweated every bit of moisture 
out of your body!"

	Elsewhere....

	"Is that why," Makoto thought, "my mouth feels like sandpaper?"

	She stood and walked to her kitchen.  She got a tall glass and got 
some water from the tap.  She gulped the liquid greedily and sat on a 
stool by her table, thinking back to her dream... and to her past 
encounters with a certain overgrown lizard.  She needed somebody to 
talk to.  She went to her nightstand and picked up her communicator.

	Who should she call?  Rei?  No, she'd just growl.  Minako?  No, 
ARTIMIS would growl.  Ami?  No, with all the school work she did on 
top of her Senshi duties, that girl needed all the sleep she could 
get.  One of the Outer Senshi?  Would they even care?

	That left Usagi.  Makoto, for some reason, thought that she had been 
the only logical choice all along.  She hit the button with the moon 
mark on it.

	Back at the motel....

	The coin Usagi put into the soda machine clinked and the orange soda 
fell out with a slight bang.  She drank it up quickly and let out a 
sigh as she finished.  That felt much better.  Suddenly, her 
communicator beeped and she opened it.  On it appeared Makoto, with 
bags under her eyes the size of Saturns rings.  "Mako?" Usagi asked 
shocked at the condition her friend was in.

	"Hey Usagi," Makoto said with a slight smile, "Knew you'd be up for 
some reason.  I need to talk to someone."

	Usagi replied, "Is this about... you know who?"

	"Yes.  It's about Godzilla."

	"I'll be there soon.  I need to talk to somebody too.

	A little later....

	Makoto opened the door to admit Usagi in.  They sat at the table and 
looked at each other before saying at the same time, "You go first."

	They both giggled and then Usagi said, "Your the one who called, you 
get to go first."

	Makoto talked about her dream, not leaving out any of the gory 
details.  She knew she was shocking Usagi but for her to give the 
full effect of how she was feeling, she couldn't hold back.  Usagi 
sat there, white as a sheet.  She licked her lips and said, "I guess..
. I guess I can kind of understand how you feel.  You had a bad 
experience with him.  Your afraid that he'll just kill all you care 
for at a moments notice.  I, on the other hand, am ready to put that 
big lug on a pedestal after what he did for me."

	"WHAT?!!" Makoto yelled, shocked to the core, "How could you feel 
any compassion, even a little, for that BEAST?!"

	"Listen," Usagi said with a raised hand, "I'll explain.  I haven't 
told any of you what happened when I was inside Space Godzilla.  I 
was trying to sort it all out before I told you.  Now I guess is as 
good a time as any...."

	Flashback....

	Sailor Moon fell through Space Godzillas mouth and was being forced 
down, down towards the monsters stomach.  She dropped into the 
stomach and splashed into a veritable river of golden slime.  She 
thought she would drown in it.  Instead, to her surprise, she found 
herself able to take in oxygen in her lungs.  "Oh no," a voice she 
faintly remembered said in her mind, "it won't be over that easily 
for you."

	"Who? What?" she thought back.

	"As intelligent as ever I see," the voice sneered.

	That sneer, the arrogant tone, now she remembered that voice.  
"Rubius," she thought, making the word sound like a curse.

	"Correct," Rubius replied.

	"How did you do this?  Why are you doing this?"

	"How?  Ironically, I never would have been able to do any of this 
had you not destroyed my physical body so long ago.  When my ship was 
destroyed, I used the last one of my magical crystals to force my 
psychic form out of my physical shell.

	"My consciousness floated through space.  Unsure of what to do, but 
knowing that I would have revenge.

	"Then, I sensed it.  This creatures mind, waiting on the dark side 
of the moon.  Waiting to reform.  I merged with the creature and let 
it know of the existanse of the Ginzuishou.  It made a bee line for 
you and my subtle influence let it know how it could use the 
Ginzuishou most efectivly and..."

	"Here I am," Sailor Moon finished.

	"Yes," Rubius confirmed, "Here you are.  Making the most powerful 
creature in the cosmos even more powerful.  I could just kill you but 
that would not be enough.  I want you to see your own powers help 
destroy this planet and all the beings on it.  Then we shall travel 
the cosmos and you shall see planet after planet destroyed and this 
creature shall grow more powerful as well and since I control this 
creature I will be the most powerful being in the galaxy.  
HAHAHAHAHAHAH!"

	Sailor Moon replied," You... are completely insane."

	"I may be mad, but I am SUCCESSFUL and mad!  Watch."

	Sailor Moon watched as an image appeared before her of Space 
Godzilla ripping MOGERA to shreds.  Not too long later, Godzilla 
appeared and they began to duel.  "Do you see?" Rubius taunted, "Not 
even the mighty Godzilla can stop me."

	The battle continued and Sailor Moon could see that Godzilla was 
getting the worst of it.  Then, a ball of multicolored light smashed 
into the spot right outside where she was.  "Raaugh," Rubius roared, 
"Blast those Sailor Senshi!"

	Sailor Moon could feel the power and emotions coming from the Sailor 
Senshis attack and instinctively used them to recharge herself and 
transform into Serenity.  "NO!" Rubius growled, "You won't get 
away!"

	Serenity called forth her crystals power and tried to buffet the 
incredible force which Rubius directed at her.  She felt the exertion 
starting to get to her.  She could not keep going much longer.  Then, 
perhaps through divine intervention or dumb luck.  Godzilla smashed 
one of Space Godzillas shoulder crystals.  The mind of Space Godzilla 
redirected some of the power in the body to regenerate and reinforce 
the crystal, then again as Godzilla destroyed the other one.  "NO," 
Rubius yelled, "you stupid beast!  I need all the power to..."

	Serenity, seeing her chance, blazed forth with an incredible force 
that destroyed the consciousness of Rubius in an instant.  Serenity 
floated up and blasted her way to freedom, into the night sky.....

	"...and the rest," Usagi finished, "you know."

	There was silence as Makoto took in Usagis tale.  "So what your 
saying is that if Godzilla hadn't smashed those shoulder crystals, 
you'd still be trapped."

	Usagi nodded.  Makoto let out a "humph" as she said, "I guess that's 
why you see him as a hero.  I've already told all of you about my... 
experience.  So you can understand why I see him as a villain."

	"I don't see him as a hero," Usagi corrected, "I'm grateful for what 
he did, but I know that he would have done it anyway, even if I 
hadn't been inside.  He's a force of nature, like a tidal wave or an 
earthquake.  You can't fight either of them too."

	"I guess that makes sense."

	Usagi squinted at dawns light started to filter in the window.  She 
stood and said, "I guess I better go.  Momma and Pappa will have 
heart attacks if I'm not there," then she asked, "Feel better?"

	Makoto nodded and replied, "Yeah," she yawned, "The only good thing 
to come out of this is that there's no school until it gets rebuilt.  
I'm going back to bed."

	"Sweet dreams," Usagi said as she walked out the door.

	Makoto crawled back under the covers and thought, "She's right.  I 
shouldn't be so shaken over losing like that first time.  It's not 
bad to not be able to beat an unfightable foe.

	"Still," she reflected as sleep started to over take her, "It will 
take time to... forget the... roar... of... the... beast."

NOW IT'S REALLY
THE VERY VERY END
