Prologue, Part 1

First, you should know that this Fanfic is based on the T.V. series of Sailor Moon, although I love the manga very, very much. Also, some of the characters are fictional to the Sailor Moon universe, and these characters are pretty obvious. By the way, I love criticism. Not that I don't like compliments :D, either!!! *sweatdrops* But, criticism helps me improve my writing, so don't worry, I won't come after you with a chainsaw because you criticized me. ^^;;;;;;;;;; Well, tell me how you like it!!!

After Sailor Moon defeated Chaos, the galaxy ushered in an era of peace, especially the Solar System. The Earth flourished, and eventually, Neo-Crystal Tokyo was erected. The marriage of Princess Serenity and Prince Endymion took place, and Small Lady Princess Serenity was born. But, about 1,000 years later, when Small Lady was still a child, Dark Element attacked and brought the invincible city of Crystal Tokyo to it's knees. In a single day, Dark Element manipulated the weather patterns of the earth and flooded the awesome city in hours, killing at least half its population. As a last resort, Neo-Queen Serenity summoned the queens of the Solar Palaces (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, and Saturn) and her beloved daughter to the flooded palace and sealed fragments of the Imperium Silver Crystal into each of their Sailor Crystals. Then, she called the legendary Sailor Galaxia and famed Sailor Stars Fighter, Maker, and Healer and Princess Kakyuu and did the same. All that was left of the crystal was one small shard, which, despite it's size, sealed Neo-Queen Serenity in layer of immensely powerful protective crystal, until the entire gem was reunited as one.

To reunite the crystal, one would have to have the Carriers willingly hand over the shards, or try to capture the most powerful known Sailor Crystals of the Galaxy. This, of course, was nearly impossible.

Nearly.

Prologue Part 2

Narita Airport

"URANUS WORLD SHAKING!!!"

Sailor Uranus drew her hand up high in the air and collected a perfect sphere of glowing yellow energy. When she slammed it into the ground, it ripped through the earth and exploded in the face of a black humanoid figure, which was unfortunately incapable of flight. Not able to dodge the attack, it was ripped to shreds spontaneously.

`One down, 19 to go,' thought Uranus. Though she didn't doubt her power, that droid was one of the very few that couldn't fly.

Her senses told her to jump as another, winged, droid rushed at her from behind.

`I won't be able to do this alone' she thought.

Still in midair, she flipped open her communicator. "Michi, I need you. NOW!!!"

"'Ruka!! I'm in the middle of a concert. You're lucky you called during intermission!!!"

"You think I care??? Look, I'm at Narita Airport with 20 flying droids on my ass!!! Come here and suit up, NOW!!!"

"Got it."

`blip-beep'

`click-snap'

Uranus landed in a crouch and rolled to the side to avoid yet another droid.

Concert Hall~Downtown Tokyo

"Neptune Crystal Power!!!"

"MAKE-UP!!!"

Almost as soon as the violinist Michiru Kaioh transformed into Super Sailor Neptune, elegant wings burst from her back and she took off with a smooth, graceful flap. Her wings carried her above the concert hall. She rode the wind towards Narita Airport. Calling on her talisman, the Neptune Mirror, she pinpointed Uranus' location. As soon as she found it, she called Setsuna.

"Setsuna, we've got daimons near Narita Airport. Uranus is there now, and I'm headed that way. She says she needs some help. It must be bad. Get there as quickly as you can!!!"

"Got it!"

"Transform!"

"I know. Be there soon,"

Neptune's communicator snapped shut by itself with a small `click' as the Senshi of Water headed towards the Narita Airport Public Parking Lot.

Prologue Part 3

Meioh Apartment~Tokyo

Click

Setsuna snapped her Senshi communicator shut and, with a burst of cosmic chronal energy, transformed.

"Pluto Crystal Power!!!"

"MAKE-UP!!!!!"

Super Sailor Pluto ran out on the porch and jumped into the air. Great elegant wings spurted from her back, and she was off.

Narita Airport Public Parking Lot~Tokyo

Sailor Uranus activated her Space Sword and slashed at the droid that had engaged her in battle. It easily dodged the attack, but that was what Uranus wanted. She sent a punishing blow to its stomach, followed by a flurry of kicks and punches at the unsuspecting droid. Before it could react, she sent a powerful slash from the Space Sword its way.

Close to Narita Airport

As Sailors Neptune and Pluto flew over the airport, a new group of daimon flew towards them, against the wind. In a flash, Neptune had `deep submerged' one of her surprised opponents, causing the others to go on the defensive side.

The leader of the group did a forward flip right over Pluto's head and aimed a punch between her wings. Not to be caught off guard, she spun around and blocked the punch with the Garnet Rod. Pluto aimed a high kick at the droid's face and swung low for it's legs with her staff.

`Swoosh-slap'

The droid blocked the punch, but its legs flew up from underneath it and it proceeded to plummet to the ground. Air whistled by as it went into freefall from the 50-feet drop. Sailor Pluto didn't give it a chance to regain its composure before she turned it to dust.

"Dead Scream," she whispered, sending the roaring attack blasting towards the falling daimon.

"Submarine REFLECTION!!!" Neptune shouted, killing her 3rd droid, leaving none left, save the one Pluto was fighting.

"Pluto! I'm moving on."

"Be there in a sec!!!" replied the Guardian of Time as she high-kicked a stunned daimon into unconsciousness. Finishing the job with a quick blast of Chronal Energy, she followed Neptune the where Uranus was battling the rest of the droids.
