There lies in the far reaches of outer space a system of planets called the Astra-Caelo System. Each of these planets, like those in our galaxy, are protected by a Senshi. These Senshi are not alone in protecting their planets, though. Each Astra Senshi is teamed with an Astra Knight. Together, these two figures protect each planet.

-Planet: Umbra, Astra-Caelo System-

One of these planets, Umbra is in the Astra-Caelo System. And on this planet live two of these soldiers who protect their planet. Through thick and thin these two guardians have defended this have even helped out on a neighbouring planet, Natura. As it just so happens, the Senshi and Knight team from Natura were visiting their neighbours on Umbra. Sophie Holman was one of these Natura guardians. She was the Sailor Senshi for Natura - Sailor Ariel. The blonde girl had hair to her shoulders which she usually kept tied up. She was about 5'1" in height and she had chocolate brown eyes. She was wearing her Natura Senshi fuku. This consisted of a bright green sailor fuku and skirt with bright blue boots up to her knees and white gloves to her elbows which ended with bright blue was known to be arguementative and strong but deep down she was really kind and a good friend. She was clumsy at times but a great guardian of her planet as she would do anything to save her friends and family from the evil. Bearing this in mind, she could be quite annoying at times. She could be sarcastic and could seriously annoy with her was her co-guardian, the Natura Knight - Episcopus Adeptus. Epi stood at a height 5'8". He had long black hair that he usually kept tied up in a ponytail at all times. He wore glasses due to the fact that he was short-sighted without them. He was also wearing his Natura Knight armor. This consisted of a leather green vest, and a green tunic made of lightweight Naturan armor. The Knight was a sarcastic individual, generally having a sarcastic comment for every situation. That being said, he also knew when to keep his mouth shut. Epi was also someone who is fiercely loyal to whatever cause he finds suits his needs. However, he could be a bit of a maverick, not always doing things by the book or even changing entire plans based on what he thought to be "the best course of action." The Knight was also a skilled strategist, managing to stay a couple steps ahead of his opponents and even more when playing strategy games.

The two guardians of Natura were walking up towards the Castle Of Umbra. This was where the two guardians of Umbra lived and worked. One of the Umbra Guardians came out to greet the two visitors from Natura. He was Keni Umutemi, the Umbra Knight. Keni stood at 6'4", and weighed roughly 180 lbs. He had gray eyes. His hair was black, and he kept it cut short. He also recently decided to grow out a beard, though he tried to keep it in a neatly-trimmed goatee. Depending on how busy he is, one could sometimes see him with the beard looking a little unkempt, as well as the rest of his face from where he forgets to shave from time to time, much to the annoyance of his partner, the Umbra Senshi. Keni was the kind of person who exercised his brain. Though preferring to exercise his brain, Keni did keep his body in shape, regularly exercising. While he was intelligent, he was also known for keeping his yap shut most of the time. In fact, most people would swear that he was a mute. However, once you got to know him, he would readily talk, though he didn't start conversations very often. Keni was also a cynical and pessimistic person. The guardians of Natura walked towards Keni as they knew each other very well. A few months ago, the planet Natura was under attack by an enemy known as The Court. When this unexpected attack happened the soldiers of Natura were failing to protect their homes. The guardians of Umbra were watching from their planet and decided to help out. The guardians of Umbra and the guardians of Natura faced their enemy together and The Court left Natura alone. For now, anyway...

The guardians stepped towards each other, smiling happily. After all, these friends had not seen each other for a long time. Keni greeted the guardians and walked them inside.

"So, Keni?" Sophie asked.

"What's up?" He replied.

"Where's Miaka?"

Keni pointed towards a door. The door was covered in engraved symbols of Umbra. The door led to a room that only the two guardians of Umbra could go in to.

"You've never told us what's behind that door..." Epi chipped in.

"I can't... If I did I would be betraying my home planet," Keni replied mysteriously.

"Don't say it in such a mysterious voice! I'm more curious now!" Sophie yelled at him. As usual she had to know everything.

"Come on..." Keni sighed. He walked them through the hallway and into the next room. They all took a seat around a table and started to catch up on what they'd all missed.

"Has The Court bothered you guys since the last time?" Keni asked, curious of that particular situation.

"They've sent various monsters but they were all really weak, so we've had no problems," Epi replied.

At that moment Miaka walked into the room, as graceful as ever. And then obviously she tripped...

"Ahh!" She screamed as she fell. "Oh my God! Why does this always happen to me?!" She complained.

"Nice to see you too, Miaka," Keni sighed.

"No need for that attitude!" Miaka complained even more. She got up and walked over to her seat. She flicked her long brown hair over her shoulder.

"Show off..." Keni mumbled.

Miaka's bright green eyes glowed in excitement. She finally got to see her Naturan friends again! Miaka was about 5"0 and had quite pale skin. She was so clumsy all the time and always tried to seem good. She was very kind though and would happily be friends with anyone. Her happy personality made anyone around her have an easier time coping with her. But she was quite sarcastic and her and Keni always had something to argue about, no matter how petty. On Keni's side of it, he really couldn't stand her bubbly personality, because she made it harder for him to continue looking at the downside of things... caution, he'd call it, but she called him a pessimistic person.

"SOPHIE!" Miaka yelled at the top of her voice.

"Miaka, shut up!" Keni complained.

"Hey, Miaka!" Sophie slid across to sit with her.

Miaka bounced up and down in her seat from her excitement.

Keni rolled his eyes, "Typical..."

"Why so excited Miaka?" Epi asked curiously.

"I get to see you again!" She replied happily. Epi shook his head.

"Miaka?" Sophie nudged Miaka gently.

"What?"

"Will you tell me what's in that room you were in?" Sophie asked curiously.

"Well, you walk in and..."

Keni leaped across the table and tackled Miaka to the floor. He covered her mouth and hit her gently.

"Shut up!" He yelled.

"Why?" Miaka asked cluelessly.

"You know why!" Keni shouted at her, "You know we aren't allowed to reveal things like that!"

"But, it's only Sophie..."

"No!" Keni yelled.

"Fine..." Miaka pushed Keni off her and stood up. She mouthed to Sophie, 'I'll tell you later'.

"NO MIAKA!" Keni shouted at her. He was outraged. How could she do this? How could she happily just tell someone everything about Umbra? He just knew that there was no hope for the girl.

"Sophie?" Epi called out her name. Sophie had her eyes closed and was as white as a ghost. Keni and Miaka turned around to look at Sophie.

"Sophie! Sophie!" Miaka called.

"Miaka, shut up!" Keni shouted at her.

"Huh? Why?"

"She's trying to see what the enemy is doing," Epi told Miaka.

"Huh? Why didn't I know she could do that?" Miaka asked.

"Maybe because you're so ignorant all the time...!" Keni argued.

"No, I'm not ignorant!" Miaka shouted at him.

"Miaka, please be quiet for a bit," Epi told her gently. Miaka sighed and sat down in a corner.

Sophie flinched. Epi and Keni stepped forward to hear the news. Sophie opened her eyes.

"They're coming," She whispered.

Miaka finally paid attention. Epi and Keni looked at each other and back at Sophie.

"The Court... They're coming to Umbra!" Sophie shouted.
