Author's Notes(September 2001): This is my first story. I started it about 4 or 5 months ago. I was writing just a short paragraph so I could get a plot for a small manga strip I was going to draw, but got carried away, and here I am with 30+ pages at chapter 11 ^_^;;. A friend suggested I should put it up here and said it was really good. I just hope you enjoy the story.

Notes as of 6-25-03: Revisions have started. I know I didn't add much to this part, but there wasn't much to add. Expect more in the later chapters.

As with anyone else, I do not own Sailor Moon or any of its characters. All belong to Takeuchi-sama.


Sailor Moon SolarS - Book One: Awakenings
Prologue: The Evil Reawakens


It has been four years since the defeat of Pharaoh 90 at the hands of Super Sailor Moon and Sailor Saturn. As a result, peace returned to the world, but at the price of the life of Sailor Saturn. Though young Hotaru Tomoe lost her life in the battle, the return of Sailor Moon marked her rebirth as her infant body was cradled in the senshi's arms.

Upon Usagi's return, Haruka and Michiru failed to acknowledge her as the true future ruler of Crystal Tokyo. After a short battle to prove herself, she was recognized as the true Neo Queen Serenity of Crystal Tokyo.

Three years after the defeat of Mistress 9 and Pharaoh 90, the evil entity which was thought to have been killed by Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune was about to return from the oblivion to where it was sent. A bright, 24 year-old woman who had once stupid under Professor Tomoe had begun a series of experiments designed to bend space. Her name was Miru Kusanaga, and this young scientist was possessed when the instant of space being pierced allowed that entity to return. The possessed Miru had now vowed total revenge on the Sailor Senshi, especially Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune who nearly killed it.

For the past year she worked on the ultimate daimon seed, a creature which would make even Super Sailor Moon look like an ant compared to its power. The daimon would also possess a copy of the entity from Miru. The seed was finally completed after months of experimentation, and this would be the final step once the daimon spawned.

Meanwhile, Usagi, Minako, Rei, Ami, Makoto, and Chibi-Usa were at Rei's home studying and preparing for entrance exams for the nearby university and Chibi Usa's entrance exam to high school. Ami, already a year from graduating from the same university, is acting as a tutor and guide to everyone, mainly Usagi.

After a few hours, Rei drifted to sleep and began to have the same nightmares as she did over 4 years ago. This greatly alarmed her and woke her up instantly, but she didn't want to alarm the others until she was completely sure what the dreams meant. As she sat there, memories of the nightmares she had over 4 years ago resurfaced. They were exactly the same as the first time, only this time, it felt much darker...

A few hours later, at the secret laboratory Miru had constructed a year and a half ago for a completely different purpose, the possessed scientist was completing the year-long process of creating her ultimate daimon. As the seed grew to its final form, the very light around it seemed to be devoured. Sparks of cold, black energy skipped across its surface as Miru removed the seed from the fluids in which it was created.

Unlike the other daimon seeds created by the once possessed Tomoe, this seed did not mature by taking the form of a nonliving object. Instead, this seed drained the life from any living thing it could come into contact with. Its sole purpose was to be a seed of death and pain. The feedings began with small rodents from around the underground lab, but the seed became larger and larger with each life it took, and soon the rodents appeared to give the seed nothing more than a tiny spark of energy.

Miru then began to give the now 18 inch tall seed stray animals she could find around the city, for she knew a human would be too difficult to capture with her fragile body. After sneaking the now 2½ foot tall seed into a farm with a covered tractor, the seed was able to decimate the farm in little over an hour. During the farm raid, Miru noticed that the seed was now able to drain the animals from a distance without even touching them physically.

After returning to the lab, the greatly enlarged seed had begun to shake. Sparks flew throughout the room, linking the seed to the power cables which went directly into the city. Its hunger continued to grow even though it was draining power from the entire city. This near limitless flow of energy caused the seed to quickly swell in size and power, creating a faint tremor as a result of the rise in strength.

Two hours later, the sparks and draining ceased. The seed began to crack. The daimon was finally ready to begin its reign of death. In a quick and powerful blast, the seed shattered, and standing in middle of where the seed was, a small, 3 foot tall creature of pure evil stood. It stood lifeless, and now was the time for the entity to copy itself and move into the newborn daimon.

12 hours later, and with a great amount of energy spent, the daimon now moved with life with Miru guiding it on. The evil had reawakened...
