Hello you all, it is I! Hypn0s! i come, delaid, a little ashamed, but i bring you all my story, a work in progress that is the culmination of several years of brain storming and seeing several crossovers and animes and thinking 'that would be badass if it happened'

Rayearth knights: universe at war is finally out, with four days of delay, i know, it's not something of a comfort considering I told you all that it would be released on the 22th of november, but my house got caught in a remoleding spree (thanks mom) and i had to help, paint, refurbish, clean, it was crazy.

Also this story, at least the the prologue anf first chapter went trought several drafts and rewrites, the prologue alone went trough five rewrites alone, just so it could sasiate my perfectionist side (Thanks dad, thanks Xbox games) and chapter 1 was rewrite two times, so you can imagine, that delayed me heavily, add to that, it seems that by some time adds have been popping out in my computer whenever i use Internet Explorer, that lags me heavily, annoys me greatly, and makes me wanna strange the asshole who thought it would be funny to add add pop-ups whenever i click something, it has me on edge, i really hope is nto a virus, because if it is it will delay me for months.

now enough rant, i have made you all wait too long for this one, the final chapter of the rayearth saga, universe at war, character galore, battles galore, explosions that would make Mister Torgue play me a sick guitar solo for sheer badass-ness...that's a word now.

so, seat, enjoy and read, oh and review, i like reviews, it makes me write faster, really it does.

usual disclaimers, only the idea of joining all this characters together in this mess is mine, the rest belongs to their predetermined owners, otherwise i would be rick as hell, make this to TV and movies, and it would be on 3D...and Morgan Freeman would narrate the prologue.

RAYEARTH KNIGHTS: UNIVERSE AT WAR

PROLOGUE: THE 5 BILLION YEAR REQUEST

'Do you know how it started? The rayearths I mean? They didn't started as a whim of the Queen as some may let you believe, or the guardians giving us an edge, no, the Rayearth knights came to this world with the combined prayers of the people of Crystalia, all praying for something, anything, a single prayer that was just two words'

'Help us'

'So simple, yet so complicated, we were dying, we had no heroes to rally on, no exemplars to follow on, it was our mistake I know realize, for this the Dark Lord rose so fast, we were so dependant that we failed to realize that we were stagnating each other'

'Still, we called on, help us'

'Help us, such a simple plea, but it was powerful enough to draw the attention of the guardians, faux gods some say, I say entities that have the power to be gods, but decided against it, either a whim or theirs or a command of a more powerful force no one knows, only that they helped us, they granted the queen the power to fight, and in turn she granted her own portion to three individuals, the very first Rayearth knights'

'They brought us peace, the knights and the queen, and the next, and the next, and has been like this ever since, until the first corruption, that should had been a sign to all of us, and it was, but only a few rose to the challenge, Rayearth and new queen included'

'After the rebellion, her line took over, brought equal prosperity to everyone, but a lesson had been learned, one she and her descendants had ushered for long, we couldn't depend always on the knights to save us, we had two hands, a brain and the will to do things, the blood of past knights dealing with problems we should have stopped was on our hands, and that was how we stopped relying on them, fighting our own wars'

'Only when the problem was beyond our control, which was rare in the coming years a knight or two would be called…until six months ago, when the pillars resonated'

'The four pillars, the ones that signaled the knights and the queen themselves, they shone, they had never shone the way they did, and the pillar of the queen, the pillar of the knight of earth, it had never shone on my life cycle, I never imagined it would'

'The people claim for change, and their pleas will no go unanswered'

Cheers, cheers echoed on every inch of the plant, on every corner of friendly space, on every single one of the twenty five galaxies allied with the Crystalian Federation and on every single planet within those twenty five galaxies.

A new Queen had been crowned, a revolution had been brought, and from every corners of the galaxies, the answer to a cry of revolution had been unanimous.

Down with the corruption, hail the new queen.

Diamond Palace had never been so crowed, the main plaza of Terras simply couldn't fit any more people, the Net-wave was on its top, live streams on every second of the coronation of the new Queen of Crystalia, cameras of every single news cast was focused on the balcony where the queen would be crowned, where the people would first see her, not on her school clothes or her armor, or remains of her custom made school clothes, but on beautiful robes made by the best, and her cousin.

Of course the royal guard was in high alert, they should be, as new elements were added to their depleted numbers, the very few members that remained of the Royal Guard, the 'old guard' the loyal guard were being buffed by newcomers from every single inch of the new galaxy where one of the new Queen's aides hailed from, they were loyal, they were disciplined, they were correct on what they did.

They were the Turian's Black guard, lend for this special occasion, the very best, led by the worse Turian to be born, Garrus Vakarian, who looked rather uncomfortable with a suit on.

"I still can't believe Shepard talked me into this suit" the Turian in question muttered as he tugged the turtle neck of his suit, for a species whose overall clothes design consisted on very crisp clothes, and men and women wear without hesitation, Garrus hated it, and made him feel uncomfortable, and naked.

"Relax Vakarian-san, you're not the only one who hates this penguins suit-HEY!" Ichigo Kurosaki, current Rayearth of fire and substitute shinigami, cried in shock when a penguin actually tried to take piece of his Haori, one his mother made for him, white in color, smooth and almost silk with gold like trimming son the cuffs, replaced his shinigami grabs, it was fitting for someone who held the position of 'soul prince' and Rayearth of fire.

"Pen-pen, no" Shinji Ikari cried, holding onto the warm water penguin, this one trying to actually hurt Ichigo for his comment on 'penguin' clothes, at first no one had actually believed that Shinji had lived with a hot slob who was the operations director during the angel wars before he accidentally set a Third Impact, a hot red-head tsundere that was his fellow pilot that the auto-pilot of his EVA nearly killed, and they had an intelligent and alcoholic penguin as a pet who he made food and used to signs any packages that came, that changed when they met Misato, now changed into a draconian leader, Asuka, a bitter pilot who never aged, and Pen-pen, who was still intelligent, and a drunk.

Clad in actual Asari and Elven made clothes that made him feel like a million credits, Shinji petted the penguin and attempted to stop him from getting immolated by Ichigo, after all Pen-pen was one of a kind, just like it's owners.

"Chillax dudes, this is a memorable moment, don't fret on the clothes, besides I like them" Danny Fentom said with a smile.

"That's because you actually look presentable" Garrus provided.

"Yeah, you should have taken Sakura's advice and let Tomoyo made your clothes" Danny said, slightly tucking the formal suit on him, a mesh between Commander's Shepard's old formal clothes mixed with a Tomoyo flair in it, the fact it was in a dark blue with dragon like patterns in it made it more royal and regal than anything he had ever wore.

"I don't know what you guys are complaining about, I feel fine" Naruto said as he entered the hall, how he was able to convince Rukia, Tomoyo, or Miranda to let him wear his orange jumpsuit to this memorable occasion was anyone's guess, maybe because his orange jumpsuit had now black trims and patches around, unlike his old one, which had blue, and had under the jumpsuit a black trench coat with black flames on the edges of it, some ninjas around had stated that with that he looked like the second coming of the Yellow Flash, to Naruto however it made him feel cool.

"You guys settled yet?" the group of boys and men rolled their eyes, Will Vandom was perhaps the only person in the group, with the exception of her fellow guardians, who didn't need formal clothes, her guardian form was formal enough, the wings that allowed her flight were something that had many elven girls swooning and wanting a pair of, in fact a whole line of pajamas with small chibi wings in the shape of her own guardian wings were set in them, suffice to say that W.I.T.C.H. had their jaws on the ground once this came to light.

"Let them be Will, they are not used to formal wear" John Shepard reminded as he entered the hall, he had wanted to wear the clothes Kasumi had gotten him for the Hock heist, but then came the Alliance and the council and all that crap, suffice to say that his formal clothes where the military blues with gold trims around, his shoulders showing his rank as commander, and near his chest the emblem of the SPECTRE units in silver, a gift of fellow SPECTRE, after all they were expected to do suicidal shit at least once a year, Shepard somehow had been able to fill his quota of suicidal missions to last five Asari life-spawns, and in six months, with kids at his side, one of them a former Freudian nightmare who piloted a 60 meter cyborg with depression powered shields.

"I still can't believe you and Naruto get to wear THAT to a crowing" Will added, referring to Mikasa's and Naruto's choice of wear, everyone knew that Mikasa and Naruto were married to their choice of clothes, orange jumpsuit that was actually resistant to stabs and made of heavy linen material that was non-flammable, then upgraded with crystalian materials to withstand acids, and Mikasa's usual clothes, but unlike the beige and white coloration, this ones were in black, all in black, it was still in the same style other soldiers from her planet wore, of course none of them had underneath the clothes an exo-jumspuit that allowed her movement and speed on par with a Chunnin in Naruto's world and ability to withstand G-forces beyond ten, the only thing odd on her clothes was the red scarf tied around her neck, a gift or Eren when she was a child.

Tomoyo and Sakura referred to it as 'the red scarf of fate'

Naruto referred to it as the scarf she used to strangle a corrupt politician who sold people.

Suffice to say that Jack, the biotic/psychotic bitch wanted one as well.

"Bloody hell, I look ridiculous"

"Nonsense Harry, you look dashing"

"Why I couldn't dress like Professor Snape? You know, something with pants"

"Mate, that's the ceremonial robes, only used on very special occasions"

"…I'm going for pants, I felt a draft!"

Naruto, Mikasa and Will broke into laughter and Danny shook his head at Harry's plight, while the boy-who-lived had been raised in the 'modern' world, meaning a world with pants and no robes, the silver like robes he was wearing now, something akin to ages long past, medieval times, left little to the imagination of Ginny Weasley as she trailed his form with her eyes, and not so subtly liked her lips.

"Bloody hell, no pants underneath, to hell with you wizard fashion!"

Now this time everyone chuckled, Garrus actually shaking his head, "Humans, you are born in three different galaxies, with different planets, and still are so eerie similar…I don't understand any of you"

"You try to say that when you spend six months with them, then tell me later" Sakura said, finally entering the hall, everyone gazed at the small girl, clad in perhaps the most expensive clothes anyone had ever seen, pure white with gold frilly designs all over the silk like fabric, her hair done in a similar regal fashion, and a tiara set around her forehead, one that would be removed once the crown was set on her forehead, today.

"Suicide mission with Shepard, got to see his mushy side with Tali on an elevator, spirits that was uncomfortable"

"Six months worth of suicide runs, assault on reaper factories, dark creature nests, attack on rampant titans and Ruby's less than subtle attempt to poison us with her food" Sakura countered, heedless of the indignant 'HEY' coming from the other room.

"Okay, you win, for now" Garrus said with the equivalent of a Turian smirk, "I'm still better sharpshooter than you or Shepard" he added.

"The Shot, The Arrow, and Shepard sniped the spine cannon of a Reaper, dangling from Mikasa's 3D gear, while hooked to Unit-01 spine, while running"

Garrus just shook his head, walking away while muttering about girls and no respect, leaving the group alone, some snickering at the Turian's plight.

A comfortable silence fell over the group, although they knew the war as a whole wasn't over, not with Tania still on the loose, not with Cerberus and the Illusive Man suddenly silent, not with the Reapers still around, not with the Titans still alive and a cure yet to be found, not with Tobi and Pein still hunting the remaining Jinchuuriki, with Phobos at large and Nerisa trying to kill Will for the hearth, not with Gendo still in possession of the Black Moon, not with Voldemort back to life.

Not with The Dark Lord looming shadow over the universe.

Yet, now, it was a different time than before, now it was a time of celebration, a new queen had been selected, and they had somehow united the known universe to face the upcoming menace.

Funny how many things can be accomplished in six months, how lineages, lies, plots and plans fall in six months.


There it is, the prologue, as i said i rewrite this five times, passing from depressing prologue, to battle prologe, to just the plea prologue, and othetr things, so you can actually say that i wanted this to be right, i hope you liked it, for now chapter 1 comes, wait for it.
