Alternative Universe: Post-Stars setting


Prelude

A lone figure stands dressed in white, her long cloak drapes elegantly over her delicate form with features child-like and porcelain skin. With her figure kneeling close to the ground, her long white hair sprawls across the earth like petals from a flower.

'Born from the events of war and destruction, I am what remains to decide the fate of the remaining stars. These stars…These crystals that hold the soul of the chosen ones…The Sailor Crystals that were left behind.'

She holds up a beautiful silver crystal who's shine is even more brilliant of a light than all the woman adorns in color. In her left hand holds a commanding sapphire crystal who's power it holds inside can nearly rival the power of the silver crystal in her right hand. Her right hand moves closer to her face.

'You who is destined for great things…The hope of coexistence and the future rest upon your pure soul…'

She raised the sapphire crystal to her face and looked to it solemnly. Her head lowered and her eyes shut.

'And you who's power has become too great. Your ambitions corrupted and your soul lost along the way…Judgment shall be passed upon you especially.' She opened her eyes proceeding to stand.

'Fly away my pretty stars, to a place where you shall meet again in a time where coexistence is possible and the choice is yours.'

She raised her right hand into the air. 'Your friends will be close in times of peril. Be strong my child.' She released the silver crystal and it began to hover and fly away. With it, nine crystals of various colors flew away with it.

She looked to the sapphire crystal, her gaze a serious expression. 'To you my child, the sins of the past are far too great. I must be certain the mistakes of the past are not to be repeated. For that…' She raised the crystal into the air.'You are to live amongst the others stripped of your former powers, to live life as a normal human.' With that energy began to swirl out from the crystal until its shine was dulled.

'In addition…' She reached behind her to clasp another crystal which pulsated between a dull gray to faint shades of blue.'You will aid a former enemy.'

She brought up the other crystal in her right hand. 'Your friends will be close, but you two will always be closer. For the future, for you both to heal.' She closed her eyes briefly.

'Fly away my children, to where You especially, can be saved.' She would glance to the sapphire crystal for a moment before releasing them both. With that they flew away in the same manner the other crystals flew to.

"Is the future you know really the future?"

A sudden boom erupted from behind the woman's figure. She whirled around with a gasp of shock at what had formed behind her.

"NO! This is not possible–!"

Cynical laughter cackled loudly.

"Do you truly think what you have done was a good idea?"

Her expression hardened as she clenched both of her fists.

"She will be saved. I know she will!"

"YOU FOOL!"

Black and crimson energy swirled around her form as she raised her arms across her face to shield herself. 'May the stars forgive me for what I have done…'

"As this world was once on the brink of destruction, so too shall it be again. There is no escape from fate. History, will repeat itself!"

There was a loud boom. The woman's figure collapsed as a black screen of energy hovered over. The air lay still and the screen began to disappear. The woman's figure stirred as her eyes remained shut. She slowly stood. What once stood an angelic figure in white was now draped in black. Her long white hair was now matched to her drapery.

"A new future has been created…" She paused for a moment before a smirk crossed her lips. She brought a pale hand up to pull the hood of the cloak over her face. "Is the future you know really the future?" A faint laughter would emit from her form echoing into the empty space.
