Bishoujo Senshi Sailorsaiyan
Chapter One
Newborn Star! Namely Light!


Her heart pounded in her ears as she ran, ran towards something she could never reach. All she heard was the endless scream of pain, the scream of the one she loved. And all she knew was that she had to reach him, but the flames were everywhere and her hope was growing dim. Then in a bright flash she was in a hall of white marble, all around there was delicate beauty, and in the center of it all was a heart shaped crystal. It was so beautiful, she simply felt she must reach out and touch it, if only one time. But as she reached it the crystal glowed and split into seven pieces, each a different color, a vanished. The hope she had felt vanished and was replaced by a dark desperation in her heart.

Now the beautiful hall was burning around her. She fell to her knees in defeat and hung her head. She didn't even know what she was fighting and she had lost. Then a voice spoke and soft glow started in front of her. "Do not despair. There is still hope, if only you'll believe. Rise young one. Your time has come." Her teary eyes looked upward and she was shocked by what she saw. There in front of her was the most beautiful brooch she had ever seen. It was all gold with crescent moon engraved in it, in the center of the crescent there was a crystal, half lilac and half sky blue. Around it, set in a triangle, were three other stones. One was green, another was orange, and the last was yellow. Unbidden she reached out for it, drawn by its amazing beauty, and as her fingers closed around it there was a brilliant flash of light that filled the room.

Siconja sat bolt upright in her bed, breathing hard. She looked around the room and gave a sigh of relief. This was her bedroom, not the grand hall, it had been just a dream and it had been silly of her to think otherwise. Then she realized she was holding something in her hand. When she looked down her eyes widened in shock to see the brooch from her dream, in all its glory. But if it had been just a dream then where had this come from? And if the dream had been real then what had happened to her? And what did it mean?

~~~~~~~

This math test was taking forever. And she'd studied so hard the night before, so why couldn't she seem to remember anything? Siconja sighed and absently chewed her eraser as she thought about the problem at hand. It was solving systems of equations, and she was usually so good at that too. She unconsciously reached in her pocket and fingered the brooch she'd woken up with in her hand this morning, and it seemed to offer her reassurance. She wrote out the rest of the problem and put her pencil back down. Then she walked up to her teacher and handed it in just in time for the bell to ring. With a smile she dashed back to her seat and grabbed her bag, then was out to door.

She sighed as the afternoon breeze caught up her long black hair. She brushed a strand out of her face as she walked to her locker before lunch. Another day in the life of your typical ninth grader. Well, as typical as the Saiyan ambassadors daughter could be. Because then again, nothing was ever quite normal for her. She waved to a couple girls and then spun the combination on the locker. She switched her books for the next few periods. As she zipped up her bookbag another female figure leaned up against the locker next to hers asking nonchalantly "You ready to go yet or what?"

Siconja looked up and smiled at her best friend, Lita, whose wavy brown hair was pulled back into a ponytail somehow emphasizing her sparkling green eyes. Siconja stood and pulled her bookbag on again and said far too enthusiastically. "Yeah lets eat!"

With that Lita sighed and shook a finger at Siconja saying. "You enjoy eating far too much. Its not natural. And don't start with 'well its not natural for you but its natural for me' stuff. It really isn't right for you to be able to consume that much and still be hungry!"

Siconja shrugged and proceeded to drag Lita into the lunch room, where they met Jena, another saiyan girl, who quickly ended the argument between Lita and Siconja about the saiyan appetite with a lengthy explanation of the saiyan metabolism.

As they ate Siconja pulled out the brooch from her pocket and studied it. It soon drew the attention of Jena who asked. "That's a pretty brooch, where'd you get it?"

Siconja looked up from where she was absently eating her fries. "It used to be my mothers. She said I could have it." She lied. But what would her friends think if she told them how she'd really got it?

~~~~~~~

Siconja sighed as she walked down the hallway from her biology class. Finally it was the end of the day and she'd never felt so tired. For some unknown reason she couldn't ever remember being so stressed in the past, and this time there didn't seem to be any particular reason for it. She was humming a nameless tune when something came hurling at her from the Chemistry room door and hit her in the head full force. She nearly fell over from the surprise and then the teacher who'd still been sitting in the classroom came running out after said object with a Bunsen burner clutched in her hands.

Siconja blinked down at the creature that had smacked her in the head and was now trying to hide in her arms. It was a small black cat with mismatched blue and amber eyes. It stared up at her almost expectantly, and what seemed to be a small circle shaped patch of gold on its forehead gleamed in the light. Then it seemed to have decided she was okay and meowed at her pitifully. It almost seemed like it was begging her to help. She looked up at the teacher who'd been chasing the animal, he had abruptly stopped brandishing the Bunsen burner and was trying to look innocent.

"Get that cat out of here will you? I don't care where you take it, I just don't want it in my classroom." He said nervously and paused for a moment before continuing, "And could you please not mention this to anyone else." With that he was off back into the classroom.

Siconja stared after him, utterly bewildered and then looked down at the cat in her arms. The cat seemed to have adopted her or something because she was purring loudly and curling up comfortably in her arms. The poor thing looked pitifully thin and rather weather-worn. Siconja shrugged lightly and figured she might as well take her home and give her something to eat before she sent the little thing on its way.

Not waiting for Lita since she had track team this afternoon, she went to her locker and quickly collected her books before setting off for home.

~~~~~~~

The cat was curled up her comforter when Siconja walked back into her room with a small bowl of milk. Shaking her head and sighing she placed the bowl on the floor and watched the cat happily leap down and begin to lap it up. The whole scene was so normal and unextraordinary that Siconja's shock was double what it might have been usually when the cat looked up at her and spoke, "Thank you, it was really very kind of you to rescue me from that crazy teacher."

For a moment the room was silent as Siconja tried to register what had just happened. Even though she was sure it had happened her brain refused to comprehend the fact that the cat had just spoken to her. When it finally clicked she leapt up and let out a startled cry, taking a few steps back and pointing aimlessly at the cat. "You...y-you...you just...TALKED to me! Oh blessed one, I KNEW those fries tasted funny this afternoon!"

The cat looked irritated and stepped closer to the screaming girl and said in a matter o' fact voice. "You can stop screaming and pointing at me. I'm not going to hurt you and you're not sick. This is perfectly real." With a dignified swish of her tail and satisfied huff as Siconja sat back down and stared at her studiously. "That's better. Now, my name is Pearl. As you might have guessed..." She frowned at Siconja's astonished expression. "...or perhaps not, I am a Mooncat. Surely you've heard of Luna and Artemis?" When Siconja nodded she gave a hint of a smile and went on. "I am of one of their kindred. I am on a mission, and I believe at least part of my search has finally reached an end. Now tell me, you HAVE found the Imperial Brooch have you not?" At Siconja's blank stare she let out an exasperated sigh. "A gold brooch with multicolored gems on it...it most likely appeared to you under very strange circumstances."

Siconja put her hand in her pocket and pulled out the brooch from her dream this morning. Upon seeing it Pearl's face broke out into a brilliant smile, or at least the cat equivalent of one. "Good good, now I'm sure I'm right. What is your name?"

"Siconja-Arora-Farie."

"Very well Siconja-chan, as I said I am on a mission, and you were born to help my in this endeavor. You are the pretty soldier Sailorsaiyan, a soldier for love and justice. Surely you know how the story goes, about Sailormoon and so forth? Very good, you are the first of a group of warriors called the Roiyaru no Senshi, the Sailor Senshi who long ago in the time of the Silver Millennium, protected the Saiyan home planet of Vejiita-sei and its Royals; the Queen and the Grand-Duchess. And of course this time is all-but forgotten, only vaguely mentioned even in fairy-tales. Since the fall of your people's first enlightened age they resettled on earth led by the legendary Saiyan Queen and her co-ruler the Grand-Duchess. Once again the Saiyan race flourished and the Roiyaru no Senshi were once again awakened. But seven hundred years ago, the Queens Golden Kingdom fell, and since then your people have been left in the care of the gentle Neo-Queen Serenity." And sad look came across Pearl's face, as if remembering someone dear to her who had been lost.

"That's where I come in, the evil that destroyed your Queen for the second time has risen again, and it is a force that cannot be defeated by the holy might of the ginzuishou with its power of creation. This calls for the power of destruction and the power of rebirth. The power of the Jou Kuukuuzuishou and the Gin Ikizuishou. These mystic stones belonged the Saiyan Queen and Grand-Duchess, and the only way to gain prosperity and peace for your people is for them to be found and in time restored to the 'royal pair'. Its the only way to end this threat. That's my mission, to find the Queen and Grand-Duchess and restore their stones to them. Its also your mission. As a Roiyaru no Senshi it is your duty to do these things and protected the 'royal pair' once they are found. " Pearl finished and looked up at Siconja with an expectant gaze.

After a long pause to digest the information that had just come streaming at her. Then she started to speak sarcastically. "So you're saying you want me to go running around in one of those Senshi uniforms fighting monsters and find some magic stone. Hasn't that already been done on Earth once?"

Pearl sighed and shook her head. "Look I know you don't believe me and yes this is a very strange situation but you're going to have to work with me here. And I can prove it to you too. Just take your brooch into the air and say the words 'Invoke! Saiyan Compact!',"

Sighed and thrust the brooch into the air and called out the words, not really expecting anything the happen. "Invoke! Saiyan Compact!" To her great surprise her clothing melted into her body in a swirl of lilac light and as if by instinct she began to move in an age old dance while golden ribbons wrapped themselves around her body. In a final flash of light a golden tiara with a lilac gem on it appeared on her forehead and she struck the pose that ended the transformation.

As quickly as she had struck the pose she broke and began to frantically look herself over exclaiming. "Oh blessed one! Look at me, I've transformed! Oh shit, I really don't think this skirt is decent, and its all so...oh crap when someone sees me like this the jig is gonna be up!" She looked in the mirror and cried. "I don't look any different, what the hell kind of disguise is this!" Then examining her gloves, which were kid gloves, tight in the hand, loose where the ended on the wrist, with lilac edging instead of long evening gloves as she'd seen on the Planetary Senshi. "Boy is this get-up different!" Her uniform consisted of a sleeveless white top with a lilac sailor collar and a golden bow with her brooch in center adorning it, it was backless and instead had strings of white crisscrossing her back, tying together at the bottom. The end of her top only covered to just below her breasts and left her belly quite bare. Around her neck hung a gold choker chain with a golden circle dangling from it. Her skirt rode low of her hips, the white top edge vaguely suggesting a v, and stopping just high enough that nothing indecent was shown, the skirt was still pleated and in a lilac colored, the bow on the back was large and gold in color, but the dangling ends where thin ribbons and hung down to her knees. Also riding low around her hips was a belt up pale gold, with a gun holster hanging low on her left side, although it was empty. Her feet were clad in a pair of tall gold boots coming up to her knees with a rim of lilac in a shape of an upside down v at the top. And of course the tiara topped the whole thing off.

Pearl leapt up on the dresser in indignation. "That's the Sailor uniform for the Roiyaru no Senshi! There's nothing wrong with it. Now look, I've been looking in ernest for you because I think that something is up in the Telecom building downtown, people have been disappearing there. I think its the work of our enemy. And just now I sensed a spike of energy from them. Lets go and you can give your new powers a try."

Siconja looked down at the cat skeptically and finally nodded in agreement. When the cat leapt out the window and Siconja did not the creature looked back expectantly. "Come on we're going across rooftops, its faster. You can do it, you'd be surprised how much stronger you are now." With slight hesitation Siconja stepped out onto her roof, and experimentally leaped across to her neighbors roof. Amazingly it worked and Pearl wasn't far behind. "Come on then lets go!"

~~~~~~~

Sailorsaiyan arrived in the Telecom building as it was eerily quiet. Deciding to follow Pearl advice she raced up the stairs to the roof. And there it was, a black woman of shadow standing behind a glowing ball of energy. As she started at the scene in amazement Pearl snapped at her in irritation. "Quick Sailorsaiyan! She's draining the energy from the phone users who use the company!"

Not knowing what she was getting herself into Saiyan blindly charged into battle, bent on exchanging blows with her opponent. But apparently the thing thought that wasn't a good idea because it raised a hand and a charge of black energy raced at Saiyan, knocking her back. Several more times she rushed it, trying to get a hold of it. But all attempts were rebuffed. From her ever more familiar place on the ground Siconja yelled over to Pearl. "How the hell do I kill this thing if I can't get my hands on it?"

Pearl, this time looking a bit desperate was running towards her. "Its a youma Sailorsaiyan, you've got to attack it with magic, physical attacks wont work on this one!"

"But I don't KNOW any magic!"

As Pearl reached her and leaped in the air, at the pinnacle of her jump she did a perfect flip. In a flash of light a silver and gold revolver fell from the air and clattered to the ground. Saiyan picked it, looking quite baffled.

"THIS is my magic weapon?"

Pearl didn't seem to notice this and quickly said. "Take it! The words for your attack will come to you!"

Saiyan picked up the gun and a warm tingle went through her. The words instantly came to her lips as she stood and held her arms up in front of her face, hands splayed. As if by a will of its own the gun spun in her open hand. "Saiyan!" Once more she grabbed the gun and spun around once to the left, striking an aggressive pose. "Sharpshooter!" As she yelled she spun once more, this time to her right, holding the gun above her head as it began to glow with power. For a split-second she seemed to pause with her back to the creature of shadow, then she snapped around, her hips still facing away and yelled the final word as she pointed the gun. "Barrage!" With that several blasts of lilac energy issued from the gun and flew with deadly accuracy at the youma. It looked appalled as it hit it. And then it promptly died, turning to glowing gray ash before that too vanished.

Saiyan collapsed to the ground, slightly tired from pulling off the attack and she stared at the gun in her hand. Finally she muttered. "Man! I think I just landed myself in a whole world of trouble,"

~~~~~~~

Far away from the site of battle a lone figure stood in the darkness. A tall man with tousled hazel hair stood in front of and spire of crystal that had been steadily growing in light, until not too long ago. Now it was completely dark. And from taking a look at the scene of battle he knew why. So, it was as Queen Latifma had predicted, the Roiyaru no Senshi brats were being brought together to fight them. With a scowl he walked away muttering. "This will make my job most interesting."
