A/N: Hey out there. If anybody is out there (I hope so)…. Anyway, this is my first fanfic ever! I really hope you all enjoy it. If you do, kindly leave a review. I'd love to know how I can improve in my writing, in order to deliver better chapters in the future. As part of this, I'm going to need at least one review before I post anymore chapters (I hope I'm not crossing a line here, being a new writer and all). By the way any spelling and grammar mistakes are my fault, as I do not currently have a beta. One last thing before I leave you. No flames, I repeat, NO FLAMES, from people who hate Sailor Moon. I don't need to hear it, it's your own fault you read the fic in the first place.

Disclaimer: Sailor Moon and all related properties belong to Miss Naoko Takeuchi and Toei animation. I own nothing *sobs*.

Sailor Moon and the Shadow Warriors

Prologue

It was eleven o' clock at night. The air outside was slightly chilly due to the fact that fall was drawing near. The full moon, high in the sky, shone brightly upon the city of Tokyo. The night was calm, no robberies or murders being committed, no loud noises waking everyone from their sleep, and being that Chaos had been driven into his own dimension (A/N: yeah, this takes place shortly after the final arc of the show), no supernatural villains lurking about. Or at least that's how it seemed.

In an empty park, the moon cast its light upon two lone figures. One of them was a girl somewhere in her teenage years, and the other was a woman who looked like she was in her early twenties. The girl was wearing a simple purple sweater and jeans. She had reddish hair tied up in a ponytail that matched her beautiful emerald eyes. However, this beautiful face was marred by an expression of terror. The woman standing in front of her had long purple hair that looked like it was made into a cat ear style at the top, and she wore a purple ballerina-esque outfit to match, complete with purple high heels. In her right hand was a red ball that was emanating evil energy, hence the reason for the girl's horrified expression. Once she saw the crystal ball, she scrunched her face up in fear and started to run. Unfortunately for her, a red beam shot out from the crystal ball and hit her square in the back. Out of her body came an orange flower, which opened up to reveal a diamond-shaped crystal inside of it. The crystal floated up, glowed briefly, and then turned black.

The girl lay on the ground. She was quickly fading away. During this time, the cat-eared lady came over, snatched up the crystal, and proceeded to teleport back to wherever she came from. Shortly after she was gone, the body of the poor girl faded away completely, never to return….

A/N: The descriptions of the characters sound familiar, no? If you think you know who they are, leave their names in your review. I'll tell you whether you're right or wrong.
