Prologue
A young girl walked slowly over the top of the hill, eyes sweeping over the busy city below with content. Brushing her long white hair out of her face, she glanced over her shoulder to see where her companion was. Letting out a long sigh, she turned back to the city.
"We've made it back, after all these years. Do you remember this place as well as I do?" the girl absently asked her companion, twirling a piece of hair in her hand.
From behind her, a dark grey cat leapt on to her shoulders with ease. "Of course I do. We met each other here, you trained here, and then we had to leave."
The girl looked at the cat, eyes full of sadness. "I sometimes wish we had never left, but I know America needed us there. Europa, do you think anyone will remember me, or you?"
Europa chuckled. "I doubt no one has forgotten you. You are the only person with snow white hair, after all, but we may need to change that. As for myself being remembered, my friends are the guardians for other senshi, and will no doubt be busy with that."
The girl shuddered, remembering her fights in America. "Of course, you're right Europa. I don't want to have to go through what I did in America, being attacked as both a civilian and a senshi. How am I supposed to change my hair color though? You know I don't agree with dying hair."
"Of course. I may have something when we get back to the new place, assuming you thought ahead that far," the cat said sternly.
"Europa, you're so mean to me! Of course I got us a place to live," she said while pouting.
"Good. Now, I've done my research on this place, and they've had a sudden increase in youma attacks. It also appears, that while a majority of the senshi live here, they don't all work together."
The girl gasped, bringing her hand to her mouth. "What do you mean Europa? Aren't they aware that together they are stronger?"
Europa shrugged. "I'm not sure. You know of the Guardian Senshi, who mustn't leave her post, and of the Destruction Senshi, who must never be awoken. Beyond that, it appears that five of the senshi work together, while another two have formed a team of their own."
The girl struggled to make sense of this. "Then how do I know if it's safe to join a set of them? One team might be evil!"
The cat nodded sadly. "I'm afraid this is so. However," she looked directly into the young girl's hazel eyes, "you have always done well working by yourself, and I'm positive you will do well now in light of this persistent enemy."
"Right. I can do this," the girl said, eyes blazing with something fiercer than fire.
"Calm down. Have you figured out what you want to change your name to? Sayuri Nagamora is very popular considering she just won her fifth gymnastics medal last year, then suddenly disappeared for unexplained reasons."
Sayuri thought for a moment, then nodded. "I think I want my name to be Makenna. Makenna Nagamora."
Europa nodded. "Good choice. Now, how's about we go to settle-" The cat broke off as a loud beeping began to emanate from Makenna's leg.
Makenna groaned. "Already? I just got here though! I wanted to settle in, and go shopping, and see about getting a phone installed!"
Europa clouted her on the head with her paw. "Makenna, don't you think the Ther-Monster is a bit more important to answer right now?"
Sighing, Makenna nodded. Looking at her leg, where the Ther-Monster was located, she saw that it read 14. "It's one monster, lever four. Should I let the locals handle it?" At another stern glance from Europa, the white haired girl threw up her hands. "I was just kidding! I can't trust them yet, why would I let them handle this youma?"
Before Makenna could take out her henshin however, Europa did a quick backflip and gave her an emerald covered leaf. "Take this and shout 'Star Transformation Power'. I don't want anyone to know who you are quite yet, especially considering you're what the other senshi call the Legendary Senshi.
Makenna gave a tense nod. "Right." Pinning the leaf to her shirt, she yelled out, "Star Transformation Power!" She gasped as her hair rose straight up and light encircled her body. When the transformation was complete, she looked at her fuku, which was a dark emerald green with fiery red bows. "Oh Europa, why do I keep the same fuku?"
The cat rolled her eyes. "You're the same scout, with the same powers. This transformation allows you to uses those powers without saying your planet name, and to do your research undetected."
Makenna nodded slowly. "Ok, I just don't say my planet name before the power to use it? Sounds like a plan!" With that, she grabbed a piece of paper. "Here's the address to the home. It's a tree house, which will suit both of us, I think. I'll meet you there."
Europa watched Makenna jump high into the air, landing neatly at the foot of the hill. Hearing the girl call out, "No detective can solve me, I'm Sailor Mystery!" she had to give a chuckle. How the girl had come up with Sailor Mystery, she would never know. She did know, though, that none of the senshi would be ready for what they would learn- that was, if Sailor Mystery ever decided to trust them. Europa nodded. The Legendary Senshi Sailor Earth wasn't going to be a legend for much longer.
Sailor Moon couldn't believe it. Never had both her tiara and her scepter failed her in the same battle, to where the youma could attack as strongly as it had been before she had attacked. Sailor Mars was in shock too. Her ofuda scrolls, which normally would have paralyzed the youma for a few minutes so that the senshi could weaken it, had just bounced off as though they were nothing.
Sailor Jupiter fought with all her strength, yelling out "Sparkling Wide Pressure!"
Sailor Mercury quickly added on to Jupiter's attack, calling out at the last second, "Shine Aqua Illusion!"
The attacks merged and hit the youma at the same time. It reeled back for a minute, only to swipe at Sailor Mercury, who was sent into a tree and knocked out.
Suddenly a voice was heard from a tree. "Volcanic Rising!" After those words, lava shot up from under the youma, incinerating it.
Sailor Moon stood up, and was quickly supported by Sailor Venus. "Who are you?"
The girl looked at the senshi with disgust. "That's my business. As for you all, you are supposed to protect this town. Instead, you're all in a heap, injured. I guess it is a good thing I decided to return." With that, she turned, white hair waving in the breeze. She was gone in the blink of an eye.
Sailor Jupiter spoke, her eyes showing her confusion. "What just happened?"
