Note 1: Chronologically, this fanfic takes place after the last episode of the first season of Sailor Moon, as well as after the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers episode Calamity Kimberly (hence why Alan and Ann of Sailor Moon and the Samurai Fan Man of Power Rangers are mentioned).
Note 2: Yes, Goldar and Scorpina have a love interest between each other in this fanfic. This is a reference to the relationship between their Zyuranger counterparts, Grifforzer and Lamie.
Note 3: This fanfic follows the english dub of Sailor Moon, hence why characters such as Usagi, Makoto, and Minako are known as Serena, Lita, and Mina.
Deep down below the darkest layers of the earth, in the center of the earth's molten core, there rest a large ice crystal, frozen solid enough that even the hot lava wasn't enough to melt it down to mere nothingness. Inside the crystal laid a man, or something that resembled a man, who had a shocked expression on his face. However, this man wouldn't be held in his icy prison for long, as the earth's tectonic plates started to move. The movement caused the ice crystal to crack slightly. Moments later, the once inanimate being inside the crystal regained consciousness. His shocked expression changed to a demented smile. The man suddenly vanished from the ice crystal, almost as if he weren't there at all. Moments later, the crystal melted to nothingness.
In the Dark Kingdom, or what remained of it, a mysterious figure stood there, observing the ruins of a once powerful and evil entity known as the Nega-Force. This man, who went by the name of Jedite, was all that was left of the army of Queen Beryl, who perished in the battle with the legendary Sailor Moon, champion of justice. "Queen Beryl...", Jedite whispered, feeling nothing but hatred and anger for his former queen, who froze him and sentenced him to eternal sleep. "You've gotten what you deserved. And now... I shall succeed where you miserably failed..." His fists clenched tightly. "Those Sailor Scouts will pay dearly as well."
Serena, who was at the local entertainment store with Lita and Mina, pressed her face against a shop window, staring at the TVs that were being displayed along with action figures, backpacks, lunch-boxes, and various other merchandise made to promote a new kid's TV show that started airing a week ago. "Serena, what are you staring at? Is that Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers playing on those TVs?", Lita asked. On the screens were three figures, all in different colors, fighting what looked to be a yellow hippopotamus with big swirly eyes and a snow-white mane around its neck sucking on a red, blue, and yellow-swirled lolipop, and a monkey-like creature wearing golden armor and wielding a golden sword. "You know, when this show first came on, I never expected it to catch on. Now, look at all the popularity it's gotten.", Mina said. "Yeah, it sure is popular... if you consider having a bunch of parents complaining about the show teaching kids to be violent 'popular'.", Lita said in an annoyed tone.
Meanwhile, about three universes away...
"FINSTER! Are you finished with that device yet?", Rita Repulsa screeched. "I've just finished putting the last touches on it, your yuckiness.", the old scottish terrier replied. Finster walked into the look-out room with a grey remote, four strange-looking white helmets, and two green boxes with projectors on top. In the look-out room were the wicked sorceress Rita Repulsa, her loyal servant Goldar, and Scorpina, Goldar's true love. "Ahh! You've truly outdone yourself, you old dog!", Rita said happily. Just then, Rita's bumbling assistants Squatt and Baboo ran in. "Where were you two nitwits? Don't you remember the plan?", Goldar asked. "Oh, I was munching on pickled maggots and slugs for lunch." Scorpina made a disgusted face. "You know how tasty they are.", Squatt replied. "And I was out catching birds. Could you run the plan by us again? We sorta forgot.", Baboo requested. Scorpina sighed frustratingly. "How typical of you two lame-brains. It's a wonder that Rita puts up with you two.", she retorted. "Fine then, but I'm only repeating it once, so get the gunk out of your ears and listen up.", Goldar said. "Finster has built us a special machine that will allow us to travel to different dimensions and universes. We'll use it to travel around wherever possible and ally ourselves with other evil beings to help us destroy the Power Rangers once and for all! You two, myself, and Finster will go, while Scorpina will stay behind to keep Rita company, since she gets lonely sometimes.", the baboon in golden armor explained. "SHUT UP, YOU SMELLY APE! I don't need someone to keep me company! Scorpina will stay in case the Power Rangers plan anything down there, you dweeb!", the wicked witch hollered. "My apologies, my liege.", Goldar replied. "Goldar, sweetie... please let me come with you. I could be of some valuable help in foreign territory. Also, we could spend some quality time alone, planning that special wedding we'll have once Earth is conquered.", Scorpina said seductively. Goldar started to blush. While he was usually very fierce and stern, his love for Scorpina was enough to turn him into a gentle giant. "Scorpina, my love, as much as I would like to take you with me... I can't. I can't risk you getting hurt out there, in a different universe.", Goldar said shamefully. Scorpina simply smiled. "Alright then, but promise me that we'll talk about our wedding when you get back, alright?", she asked whilst stroking Goldar's chin and pressing her nose against his, causing the usually fearless warrior to blush even more. "Hold on a second! I just came up with something!", Finster said. He then ran back to his Monster-Matic.
Back in the other universe...
"Sammy, you shouldn't be watching this show! It's too violent for you to watch!", Serena's mother said angrily. Serena was going to go out over to the temple when she passed by the living room, where Sammy and their mother were. Sammy was happily watching Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, much to the dismay to his mother, who, like many other parents right now, thought the show was too violent for little kids, and that only teenagers around Serena's age should be able to watch it. "But mom, there's nothing bad in it! There's no blood, swearing or other stuff in it!", Sammy pouted. Serena gave her mother a dumbfounded look. I've watched that show already, and it's not THAT bad! If he wants to watch it, let him, she thought. "I've heard that kids at your school are getting hurt because they're imitating the Power Rangers! As long as that's happening, I'm not letting anything about that show rub off on you!", their mother scolded before turning the TV off. Sammy, depressed, dragged himself back to his room with a sullen look on his face. Serena felt like saying something to her mother about the show, but considering her past arguments with her mother, she quickly decided against it. "Mom! I'm going out again!", she said.
Luna and Artemis were sitting on the roof of Serena's house. "Sure is peaceful when we're not fighting evil, especially those alien creeps, isn't it?", Artemis asked. Luna stretched her paws out and arched her back. "Yes, it sure is. However...", she was about to say. "What?", Artemis asked. "I have this strange feeling that this peace isn't going to last."
Meanwhile, about three universes away...
Finster was at his Monster-Matic, quickly designing a monster to take with them as a last minute decision. His hands rushed frantically to piece the monster together. "HURRY UP, FINSTER! WE'RE BURNING DAYLIGHT HERE!", Rita shouted. In moments, the clay figure was finished. Finster then placed the figure into a huge machine. Out of a huge tube in the ceiling came a yellow hippopotamus-like creature. "I am Hypno-potamus, at your service, sir. What may I help you with?", The creature asked in a ridiculously british accent. "FINSTER!", the witch screeched. Finster, who was holding a fifth white helmet, and Hypno-potamus quickly rushed into the look-out room. "This is Hypno-potamus. Should anyone turn down our proposal, we can use Hypno to 'persuade' them.", Finster explained. "He looks stupid! Just what exactly does he do, Finster?", Rita asked. "Alright then. Hypno-potamus, show them your lolipop.", Finster said. Hypno-potamus took his lolipop out of his mouth. The sweet candy-on-a-stick treat was swirled with red, blue, and yellow. "Hypno-potamus can shoot sleep rays out of that colorful lolipop of his. If he hits anyone, it's beddy-bye time for an hour or two.", Finster explained. "Good. Now put on the helmets, boys. We're going to a different universe.", Goldar said. Finster, Squatt, Baboo, Goldar, and Hypno-potamus all strapped on their helmets. "Have a safe trip, Cutie-Kong.", Scorpina said, and kissed Goldar on the cheek. "I thought you promised not to call me by that name!", Goldar yelled angrily. "ENOUGH! Now get out there and get us some evil allies! And don't bother coming back empty-handed!", Rita shouted. Finster pressed various buttons on the grey remote. Moments later, a large blinding light engulfed the look-out room. Then, the only ones left were Rita Repulsa and Scorpina
