There should be some meaning to my life

[waterfell]

I won't be able to care for Mama when she grows older.

I never had anyone near me growing up. Papa was gone, Mama was busy, and I didn't make friends. When I thought I finally did, it was a lie and they weren't the friends I was looking for. When I finally found the ones who could be, I didn't realize it for a long time. Now that I finally see them, is it too late?

There are a lot of places I haven't seen, things I never experienced.

I wanted to be strong enough to fight with them to the end- as a fellow warrior.

But... somehow it feels good to rest right now.

What future is there to hope for when it's already over?

[mooneternal]

I don't believe this is the end for you. It can't be. And you... I don't believe you want it to be like this, either.

[waterfell]

This life is already ended.

Princess, if you're going to continue on, become stronger - especially in your heart.

[mooneternal]

It's not! I won't believe it! Ami-chan... we'll meet again for sure! I want to become stronger, but without you, I can't! Don't leave!!

amazing how this warning actually fits for manga Stars as well as for PGSM XD

[waterfell]

That's no one's decision now. You have to.

My not being there is small to you, but even if it's someone else, even if it's everyone, even if it's the prince; you have to become stronger on your own.

( there's obvious sobbing in her voice; she doesn't want to do this... it shouldn't be this way! ) I'm not strong enough on my own... I need everyone! I need you!

[waterfell]

Then your world will also see an end again. [Even now, she's that blunt, because even now, that's the only alternative if the princess can't do this.]

[mooneternal]

But how... How can I protect it alone?! ( everyone's said it all along... she's selfish... a crybaby... ) Together... we were supposed to all work together...

[waterfell]

You have to learn.

[mooneternal]

Ami-chan... ( but you were the ones who would teach her everything... show her the way... ) It's too cruel...

[waterfell]

[She doesn't argue that Usagi still has so many things in front of her that Mercury never will; perhaps someone like her was never meant for those things in the first place.]

Cruel or kind isn't the question here.
