Its amazing what a great war movie can do for one's mind.

After seeing the movie "300," I was enthralled with the idea of war and love. What it means to have to let your only love go for the sake of your people. So I decided to combine that into a story, using Sailor Moon's characters. I hope a great story is the result.

I am using the Japanese names of the character because they fit better with what I am trying to accomplish through this story. I may create characters of my own as well. Refer to the disclaimer for that.

The title of the story doesn't make much sense now, but if you are patient with me, it will make sense later. 

With that said, may you enjoy what Terra's Beads has to offer.

p.s. Terra is another name for Earth.  Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Sailor Moon characters. They belong to Naoko Takeuchi. However, any characters not belonging to her, belong to me. Thanks!

Terra's Beads

Prologue

By: CrossWings

The world was quiet. Perhaps too quiet if you ask me. Dare I say it was too…peaceful? Something must be wrong. Something, anything. Give me a small uprising, something to allow the adrenaline to rush through my veins again. sigh It is futile to wish for such a thing. I knew it would never come.

My father was a great ruler to keep such peace amidst such a scandal driven planet. Terra. My home. My home that everyone loathed. Especially the planet Mars. I cannot stand that man named King Ares of Mars. But that is another story entirely.

As I sat outside in the palace gardens with my father, the lovable King of Terra, something unthinkable happened. One minute we were laughing and the next, he was gone. Killed. Assassinated. I stared at the poisoned arrow caught between two of his ribs. He gazed at me as his eyes glazed over. His eyes spoke novels to me. It was at that moment that I vowed to protect my planet under any means necessary.

So begins my tale. My journey, my fight. My love. I asked for an uprising. I got one. "Be careful what you wish for," my mother spoke to me as I asked for such a thing.

Her warning came too late.
