"The Dark Earth Realm"
Lady Rinehart
The idea came from Bambi Star. It amazingly original and creative and I hope I do justice to the idea.
*********************************************************
What if Queen Serenity's sacrifice was for nothing? No, not for nothing, just harder to appreciate. When Beryl attacked and was sealed away, she came back early. Ten years before Luna and Artemis appeared to guide the princess to victory.
Beryl's been ruling the earth for about ten years. In those ten year she's enslaved its population and opened the gates to several different dimension. She rules the world, now she wants the Universe and any others she can get her hand on.
The power of greed was always a large quality human have. Greed is the one thing that drives human to do some of the most ruthless and heartless things. Greed leads to hatred and onto death. A chain reaction hit the earth and it seems that all of mankind is doomed.

Ranma grunted as he walked the halls of Beryl's castle. He was wearing a uniform of dark material, seemingly leather. The pants were tucked into knee high black boots and a black belt went around his waist. He had a whip strapped to his side, along with an instrument that has no name. His shirt was sleeveless, showing off the muscular arms of a general. He had pieces of armor around him, but not much. The more armor the weaker the wearer.
Ranma had just had a run in with Endymion, the prince who currently kept the Queen's bed warm. Endymion had thrown a few comments about weakness at Ranma, and being who he was, hadn't let the prince get away with some talk he couldn't even back.
Even though Ranma had clearly won the fight, Beryl-sama hadn't like that he'd injured her boy-toy. Of course, she let it slide because Ranma had just lead her army to their fifth outer-stellar victory. He may not like Beryl or the world she's created, but he also wanted to survive.
Ranma stopped and looked out on of the many windows in the passageways. Even though it was in the middle of the day, no light shined through these windows. The sun's rays could not penetrate the deep purple clouds that forever encircled the earth. The sky was a dark red, stained like blood. The castle was placed a top a cliff over looking a sea. The sea was also red, though, with a more rusted color to it. The ocean did not break in gentle waves below, but crashed against the rocks like they were taking some sort of revenge out on the castle.
Someone tapped Ranma's shoulder and he turned quickly. He smiled when he saw it was only Ryoga, a one-time rival but now companion through the darkness, and second high general after him.
"You shouldn't stare out like that." Ryoga said a touch of sarcasm in his voice. "You might want to jump."
"Jump?" Ranma questioned cynically. "I'm not a cowardly enough to jump like Kuno was. If I go down, I'm at least taking Endymion down first."
"I don't see why you let the guy get under your skin." Ryoga said, motioning for Ranma to follow him. Ranma did so after glancing once again at the red sea and sky. "He's not worth the extra air."
"I have my reasons." Ranma replied, making the words sound final. Ranma did not like talking of his past, especially the one dealing with Endymion. Ryoga smiled.
"Beryl-sama wants us to meet in the throne room." His smile grew wider. "She said we'd be getting our reward."
"I can do without another badge and sheild. I've got too many to count."
"I do believe our surprise will be much different than the usual." Ryoga said letting a mysterious tone flavor his words. The walked in silence, each with their own thoughts, before coming to a large set of iron door.
These doors were very thick and hard to get through. The color was that of light gray, but black bars ran vertically down the doors to make them seems as if they were stepping into a prison. Ranma pressed a hand against a panel on the side. An eerie green light scanned his hand and the door slide into the walls at a slow pace as if daring the men to make sudden actions. The boys stepped in.
The door was a top two large black marble staircases than went in opposite direction in a soft curve to meet on a lower floor. The stairs, however, were moving in a slow mechanical way. The men stepped on and waited to be brought to the bottom. Upon reaching the distention, they once again looked over a balcony into the throne room. Both boys gasped.
Down below Beryl sat on a black throne with a red, crushed velvet seat. She was watching as fifty or so women in chains fidgeted about uncomfortably. The women wore dresses from rags to gown of beauty. Ranma looked over their faces and stopped on a blonde.
She was gorgeous. Soft, golden hair fell about her messily in waves upon waves down her back. Her body was clad in a torn a ripped fuku of sorts. He was suddenly reminded over school girls' uniforms he'd read about once. The color was dark blue and it met with what looked like to be the remains of a bow. Unfortunately, under the bow was missing, sowing off smooth skin and lean muscles. A bit of whit was wrapped around her hip and this went of into a blue skirt. The apparently short skirt was ripped to the point of indecency. Her shapely and wonderfully sculptured legs were at the mercy of any eyes that wished to view them. Knee high, red boots adorned her legs, though again, these were mere left overs of the original shoes.
From this height, Ranma could not make out her face, but he got a great view of everything else. He and Ryoga made their way to an elevator and through the girls. They stopped in front of Beryl's throne. Endymion had come out of hiding during their decent upon the room and now stood next the Dark Queen. The boys bowed. Beryl spoke.
"Ranma Saotome, Ryoga Hibiki, you are two of my youngest warriors, yet, you have conquered more for me that a majority of my older commanders. Even at the age of eighteen you are brave and wise beyond your years. I wish to honor you today." Many of the diplomats and other general, commanders, and soldier who were in the room, clapped loudly. Endymion did not clap.
"These girls are my newest batch. As you know, at the age of sixteen, all girls are taken and given work as servants and slaves whereever I like. Some, though, are criminals my men have recently captured. I will let you chose one girl to your liking that you may keep." Beryl said grinning. "Take your pick boys." She waved over the heads of girls.
Ranma glanced around and spotted the golden haired girl from before. He paced over to her and looked her over. Her head was down, most likely in embarrassment. She was more glorious up close but he wanted to see her face.
"Look up." He said gently, though, in her ears in was an order. She didn't take orders. Her head shot up, her chin out in determination. Her chained hands came up hitting Ranma in the side of the face. Her eyes glared defiantly up at him.
Ranma put a hand to his throbbing cheek. The girl was feisty. He liked that. Her face was perfect. Her eyes, he noticed, looked like a blue sky on a clear day he'd once see a picture of hanging in his mother's room. However, at the moment, these beautiful eyes were clashing dangerously and Ranma was reminded of the crashing sea wishing to take revenge for unknown reasons. He smiled.
"I'll take her."

Kinda weird and dark I know, but hopefully interesting. Usagi has become Sailor Moon, as you can tell, but not with Luna's help. I'll explain later.
Next Time: "Well, she certainly is beautiful." Endymion said, looking over Usagi. She glared at him from behind Ranma. She didn't like this man at all. "If you can't use her, I can."
"Use her?" Ranma asked, for the first time giving Endymion the pleasure of knowing more than he knows.
"Of course. She your new bed mate." Endymion said with a laugh. "Why do you think Beryl gave you a slave girl?"
