Sailor Moon G
 
LNF here, presenting you all with a new fan fiction of mine.
 
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon, the anime is property of Naoko Takeuchi, but I do own The Skull Empire and anything to do with it as well as the plot of this fan fic, the songs used in this Chapter belong to their respective owners.
 
Just before I get started, I'd just like to explain when this fic takes place after Sailor Moon S, basically you could say it's an alternative version of SuperS, I hope that clears some of the plot up.
 
Special mention goes to MoonKent, who did the date scene for me in this chapter, a big thank you to her

Episode 1: Destruction's Requiem
 
---()---
 
Moonlight Densetsu by Moonlips
 
I'm sorry I'm not gentle
I can say that in my dreams
My thoughts are about to short circuit
I want to se you right now
Moonlight makes me want to cry
Midnight is too late to call
But I'm naive, what will I do?
My heart is a kaleidoscope
Being led into moonlight
We meet by chance many times over
The sparkling number of stars
Foretells the whereabouts of love
Born on the same Earth
A miracle romance
Do you believe?
A miracle romance

In a vast palace, a queen sits at a throne surrounded by loyal subjects.
 
“All hail our beautiful Queen, Nehrenia, All hail our beautiful Queen, Nehrenia, All hail our beautiful Queen, Nehrenia, All hail our beautiful Queen, Nehrenia” they chanted as Nehrenia sat at the throne with her eyes closed.
 
“Soon the Princess of the White Moon shall feel my power” she said to herself.
 
“Do you really think so, Queen of a century long dream” said a male voice.
 
Nehrenia snapped who eyes open as her subjects disappeared as she stood up from her throne.
 
“Who dares disturb me?” she demanded as the doors slammed open as eighteen heavily armoured guards ran in, the armour making them seven feet tall and the armoured coloured black, the boots having a skull on the knee joint, it's chest armour having a eight pointed star, they have two large shoulder pads one of them having the same eight pointed star as the chest armour has except with an eye in the centre, the other having a skull on it, the back pack being stuck onto the back of the armour has to out stretched arms with have grates on them with air escaping from them, their head armour having a grate around the nose and mouth so you can hear the breathing, red eye lenses to strike fear into the strongest of hearts and horn sticking out of the top of the armour. Their bolters having a small handle with trigger, a large magazine of large bullets sticking out far in front of the handle, a large slide where the bullets come out rapidly.
 
Then the guards stood at attention as a man entered wearing a mask that goes all around the top half of his head and around his eyes and ears, his face being very pale and his mouth being skull lipped with a grey lining going around his face. Platinum blond hair that goes half way down his back which blew in the wind, Shoulder Armour is red and wears a cloak which is red that blew in the wind, the inside his boots that are red goes up to His Knees. He wears A Red Belt with the Skull Empire insignia which is a skull with half of it which is cybernetic with a cog round the skull on it, wearing Black Armour with Purple Armour on his chest biceps, wrist armour that goes to his elbows, as well as red boots the go up to his knees with a triangle knee cap on the end of the boot with purple armour inside the boots, when he stopped walking he drew himself to his full height of six foot, ten inches.
 
“Who are you who dare to insult me” demanded Nehrenia.
 
“My name is Nagash, the Praetor of the Skull Empire” he said as the guards aimed their guns, “Destroy the mirrors”
 
“NO” yelled Nehrenia as the guards fired their bolters on every mirror that they could see.
 
After the firing was ceased Nagash walked towards Nehrenia, who was on her knees, no longer the beautiful women but an old crone.
 
“See what I mean by a century long dream” said Nagash looking at the shattered mirrors admiring the destruction.
 
“How dare you?” she yelled raising her arm at Nagash and firing Dark Lightning bolts at him, when the bolts hit him he didn't flinch as the bolts absorbed into him.
 
“HOW” she yelled starting to move back slowly.
 
“I am the Lord of Destruction” he replied “I can do anything that I wish that would cause destruction”.
 
“The Lord of Destruction, impossible, he's just a myth, a legend of old”
 
“I am no myth or legend my dear, mealy REALITY” he said pulling his arm back and firing a Dark Lightning bolt at Nehrenia, when it hit her she screamed in pure agony as she slowly vaporized into nothing.
 
“Farewell to a waste of flesh” said Nagash as he turned and begins to leaving the room only to stop by his men; he gets out a small device which he activates making a holographic person dressed in Generals armour appear on the device.
 
“General, Order an Exterminatus; I want everything on this planetoid destroyed”
 
“Yes my Lord” said General as he bowed slightly as he disappeared from the device.
 
Nagash and his men reached down at their belts as they set co-ordinates before teleporting away.
 
---After the Exterminatus---
 
Nagash stood on a bridge of a war cruiser in a vast space looking out to the stars the war cruiser having a hammerhead shark life front with the bridge on the fine, the wings spread out all the way to the back of the cruiser.
 
“Praetor, the exterminatus is complete” reported General
 
“Excellent General” replied Nagash as he turns around to face him, “Now have the helm set a course for Earth.”
 
“Earth, but why my lord?”
 
“I wise man once told me that the stars know everything, but sometimes they don't, sometimes answers lie on planets, mine lies on that blue and green planet, I once went their alone and some questions were left unanswered.”
 
“Are you going to conquer it and add it to the Empire?” asked General.
 
“Yes General, I've already sent Decoe and Bocoe their, I've had a citadel built their secretly, I'll be going their personally while you and our forces return to Repulus”
 
“You're going alone with just Decoe and Bocoe? But what about our armies, certainly you would consider taking the Black Legion with you”
 
“I've considered that, I've decided that the armies will remain on Repulus along with my Black Legion, I'll take the Skull Bots with me and they should be enough for what is installed”
 
General bowed slightly then he turned to a helmsman.
 
“Set a course for Earth, maximum warp, Praetor's orders.”
 
“Yes sir” replied the helmsman.
 
The war cruiser turned around and warped away to the Solar System.
 
---Later---
 
Serena skipped down the street, Darien at her side. “Oh, it's so wonderful to finally have some peace!” she exclaimed.
 
Darien smiled down at her. “Yes, it is,” he agreed. “And I have a wonderful day planned, just for the two of us.”
 
Serena beamed up at him and hugged his arm. “You're the best boyfriend ever, Darien!”
 
From around the corner, Mina and Lita carefully watched the happy couple. “Are you sure that we should be watching them?” Lita asked.
 
“Definitely!” Mina replied decisively. “If something happens, we need to be there to protect them.”
 
“What could happen?” Lita asked. “There aren't any enemies left to attack.”
 
Mina turned and looked at her with narrowed eyes. “You never know what might happen, Lita,” she said seriously. She quickly whipped back around to keep watching Serena and Darien. “It is our duty to watch their every move and see what they do…er, I mean, protect them.”
 
Lita shook her head. “You're never going to learn, are you?” However, she joined her friend in following Serena, not noticing the fact that they also were being followed.
 
Darien stole a subtle look backward. “They're doing it again,” he said to Serena.
 
She knew what he meant without even a glance. “Who did Mina drag in this time?”
 
“Looks like Lita,” he replied. “It also looks like Rini is doing some spy work of her own behind them.”
 
Serena looked up at him with sparkling eyes. “How should we give them the slip?”
 
“Well, we've done the movie theatre thing, the jewellery store thing, and the turn and confront them thing. What do you say that we transform and fly out of here at the next alley?” Darien said mischievously.
 
Serena nodded and grinned. The two of them continued along as though nothing they knew nothing about the two followers behind them. As they rounded a corner, Darien suddenly pulled her arm and led her behind a building. With a small flash, they both transformed. Darien, now Tuxedo Mask picked up Super Sailor Moon, the transformed Serena, and jumped with all the strength and power that the transformations gave. At the top of the building, they looked down and laughed as Mina and Lita came running around the corner and searched for them. With a smile, they hopped away to continue their date, privately this time.
 
Mina groaned. “Man, they did it again! They always manage to give us the slip!”
 
Lita hid a smile. “Well, I did tell try to tell you. They're getting smarter and probably know most of our tricks by now.”
 
“Hmmph!” Mina muttered, flipping her long, blond hair over one shoulder. “Then we'll just have to think up new ones!” She turned and stalked out of the alleyway, head held high, as though she had planned for this all along. “Let's call Amy and Raye.”
 
Lita laughed. “Do you think that they will cooperate with your diabolical plan to spy on Serena and Darien in hopes of seeing them kiss?”
 
Mina tossed her head haughtily. “Of course they will!” Suddenly she realized what the second half of Lita's sentence had been. “And this isn't for the purpose of seeing them kiss! We have Serena's best interests at heart.” Lita rolled her eyes. Ignoring her, Mina pulled out her communicator and pushed the small blue button.
 
Amy's face appeared on the miniature screen. “Hello, Mina. Is there trouble somewhere?”
 
Mina shook her head. “No, I just wanted to ask you if we could borrow your Mercury computer to find Serena and Darien.”
 
“Find Serena and Darien?” Amy repeated. Then her blue eyes narrowed in suspicion. “You're not following them on their date again, are you?” Without waiting for an answer, Ami said, “Mina, you've got to stop doing that! It's wrong! And I've told you before, these communicators and my computer is for sailor business only!”
 
“But…” Mina tried to protest.
 
“No buts!” Amy said firmly. “Besides, I'm sure that you have more important things to do than follow them around. Just because you're in high school now doesn't mean that you can slack off. You need to study more!”
 
Mina groaned. “Not the old lecture again, Amy? Listen, I'll get off right now if you want me to.” She hit the end button on the communicator.
“I told you that she wouldn't listen,” Lita said, smirking.
 
Throwing her a glare, Mina punched the red button. This time, it was Raye's face that appeared. And unlike Amy, she was annoyed from the start.
 
“Mina! How many times are you going to call me and ask me to do a fire-reading so that you can locate Serena and Darien!?”
 
Mina blushed red. “How…I…We were just…” she stammered.
 
“I don't care! I'm in the middle of something and I can't be bothered right now!” Raye hung up her end of the call.
 
Mina lowered her communicator. She could see the mocking glance in Lita's eyes without even looking. “Let's go the arcade!” she said suddenly. “I bet that I can beat you at the Sailor V game!” She took off running.
 
“Ha! As if!” Lita shouted, and chased after her.
 
“Wait for me!” a voice suddenly called from behind them.
 
Lita looked back and recognized the bouncy, pink hair. “Rini! What were you doing?”
 
“I was practicing my spying skills,” the young girl replied proudly.
 
“And who, may I ask, were you spying on?” Mina asked, coming up beside Lita.
 
“You!” Rini giggled at their surprised faces. “I'm going to the arcade now!” She took off running as fast as her little legs could carry her. After a moment's hesitation, Mina and Lita joined her, smiling as well.
 
Raye smiled and laughed as she turned off the communicator. Hitting the pink button, she waited until for the bubbly face of Sailor Moon to appear. When it did, Raye gave her a wink. “All clear,” she said. “I put her down in her place this time. She won't be bothering you until late afternoon at the soonest.”
 
“Thanks, Raye! I owe you one!” Serena replied.
 
“Just place it on the bill,” Raye said with a smile and turned off the call.
 
Sailor Moon turned with a smile to Tuxedo Mask. “Just the two of us, all day.”
Tuxedo Mask smiled back. “And I have plenty of stuff planned!” They detransformed, grabbed each other's hands, and took off.
 
Later that day, with evening touching the city, Serena sighed with happiness. It had been the best day the she had ever had. Of course, she said that every time, but today had seemed extra special. She looked up at Darien. `He is the perfect guy, she thought. He planned this whole day and is ending it with a perfect walk in a great park. Could I be any luckier?'
 
Darien looked down at her. “What are you thinking about?” he asked.
 
Serena gazed deep into his midnight blue eyes. “That I have the most perfect boyfriend ever,” she replied.
 
Slowly the two of them drew closer together. At last, their lips touched. Lost in their kiss, neither of them noticed the shooting star that flew over their heads.
 
---Elsewhere---
 
On a heavily defend island; A sky scraper that goes above the clouds stands from within a hole stopping anyone's hopes of entering, defended by turrets, missile launchers and spikes sticking out of the tower, Inside the Control Room, Praetor Nagash sits ay a desk which is on a platform which almost faces the entrance, a small screen in front of him showing a section of the city of Tokyo, behind he was a computer console where he could communicate with his minions, in front of the desk two of his Skull Bots stand, Nagash watches the Skull War cruiser warp away from the solar system on a radar.
 
“So this is the Planet Earth? I expected something more of the species, unknown of what is going to happen” Nagash said with a smirk as he spun the globe on his desk around.
 
The tall light green Skull Bot, Decoe stepped forward a bit.
 
“Our analysis reports detected very primitive technology, not much for our mighty empire to struggle with it” he said in a low pitched mono tone cybernetic voice.
 
The short light grey Skull Bot, Bocoe stepped forward
 
“If we launch all our Skull Bots at once we should conquer the planet in a matter of minutes” he said in a high pitched mono tone cybernetic voice.
 
“No, I'll make somewhat of a sport out of it, and once I conquered this planet I will set up a new foundation of the Skull Empire, then I will expand the Empire to the rest of the universe” said Nagash as he laughed aloud standing from his chair.

You ready for the trip?
Just one more day to go
Put on a new shirt
And let's sneak off in the night
The sleepless city is even today
Still just looking over us
Why don't we sing it a new song?
 
Events that could make you cry
Remembering without reason
With sound of the heels of our boots
Let's run through quickly
Doing things skilfully may be fine
But as we are clumsily standing here
It's that I really like about you
 
To shine bright, and be free
Nothing to be afraid of.
Since we've rode the waves of time,
Let's start aiming for that far off road
 
Saying goodbye to the boring days
There's nothing to be lost
Stubbornly tie the boots once more
Let's open a new door
The sleepless city is even today
Quietly just looking over us
Let's start from here!
 
To shine bright, and be free
Nothing to be confused about
The waves of time are strong yet gentle
Soon I will meet you there
 
Let's light up our world
To shine bright, and be free
Nothing to be afraid of.
Since we've rode the waves of time,
 
To shine bright, and be free
Nothing to be confused about
The waves of time are strong yet gentle
 
To the other side of the far off road,
Soon I will meet you there
Let's go and find our future

“It looks like he wants to occupy the city first before conquering the planet.”
 
Nagash “The world is mine by right, so is this universe.”
 
Serena “This is terrible”
 
“If he keeps this up then Tokyo will be wrecked!”
 
Nagash “I'm all mighty and powerful, who would dare to stop me?”
 
Luna “Time for the Sailor Soldiers to get back into action, and quick.”
