Prologue
Darien is sleeping and having a strange dream. He sees the silhouette of a woman.
"Darien. Darien. Please save our kingdom," pleaded the silhouette of a woman. Darien wakes up sweating. Meanwhile, Serena is having the same dream.
"Serena. Serena. Please help me protect him…" Serena stood up and looked out the window. Luna woke up and looked over at Serena.
"Serena, are you alright?" Luna asked.
"Yeah, I just had a weird dream, that's all," Serena replied.
"Well, you better get some sleep. You have a test tomorrow." Luna said.
"Right." Serena said as she looked up at the moon.
"What a strange dream." Serena thought to herself as she laid back down and closed her eyes.
The next day, Serena, Lita, Rein, Ami, Rita, Luna, Artemis, and Darien all gathered at the temple.
"I've been getting these strange vibes, but I can't figure out if they are good or bad," explained Rei.
"Do you think it means something is approaching?" Lita asked worried.
"I sure hope not…" Rei said with a stern look.
"Well, we've got to be careful. They can be some evil forces trying to take over Earth again." Luna instructed everyone. Serena dropped her body on the floor.
"WHAT? MORE EVIL FORCES? I THOUGHT WE WERE DONE WITH THEM!" Serena whined
"I thought for sure I can finally be a normal teenager…" Serena looked at the floor with a sad look on her face.
Darien went extended his hand to Serena to pick her up from the floor.
"Come on Serena. You know it's our duty to protect the Earth and save our future together."
Serena looked up at Darien and saw him smiling. She blushed and smiled back and gave him her hand. Darien picked her up and held her hands. Serena looked deeply into his eyes. She felt the butterflies in her stomach.
"Our future together," Serena blushed as she said it out loud.
Darien smiled at Serena. He felt his heart beat faster, something only Serena was able to do. He looked at her lovely eyes. He couldn't help but think how lucky he was to be with Serena. He loved absolutely everything about her. Serena closed her eyes and puckered up for a kiss. Darien began to lean in to kiss her when suddenly Rei interrupted them.
"Serena, you need to stop starring into space. We might have a crisis here!"
Serena opened her eyes and realized that Darien had backed away. Both of them blushed.
"I'm sorry Rei but…I just get so dreamy…" Serena kept looking at Darien as he blushed.
"Oh Serena!" Rei rolled her eyes.
Serena was sleeping with Luna on her bed. Luna suddenly heard a strange noise and she perked her ears out and looked out the window.
"What was that?" Luna thought to herself.
Suddenly, a beam of light shined through the window.
"Oh! I better go check it out." Luna jumped out the window and ran towards the light.
Luna arrives exactly where the beam of light was seen, but she noticed that there was nothing there.
"How strange. I could have sworn that the light was coming from here." Luna looked around. She walked around a couple more times but found nothing. She finally decides to leave.
A little pearl is on the floor and begins to roll over to a convenient store. A man walking past notices it it, picks it up, and puts it in his pocket.
The man who took the pearl arrived at his house and set the pearl on his desk. He goes to bed and fell asleep. While he is asleep, the pearl hatches and a dark fog escapes from inside the pearl. The fog circles around the room as if looking for something. The fog spots the sleeping man, and it goes inside him through his nose. The man suddenly wakes up with gleaming red eyes.
Serena is running late to school as usual.
"OH NO! I'M LATE AGAIN! WHY DOESN'T ANYONE WAKE ME UP!" Serena panted as she ran down to the kitchen and out the door.
"BYE MOM! THANKS FOR LUNCH!" Serena yelled behind her.
Serena finally made it to school and the teacher is in the front of the classroom introducing a new transfer student.
Teacher: "Okay class, this is our new transfer student. Her name is Melody."
Serena looked at the new student.
"Wow! She's gorgeous!" Serena thought.
Melody looked around the classroom. She had long, brown, wavy hair. Her eyes were a gleaming hazel but at an angle they looked like the ocean green.
"Nice to meet all of you," Melody smiled and bowed to everyone.
"Okay Melody, you can go and have a seat next to Serena. Serena, can you please show her to her seat?" Serena perked up and smiled.
"Okay. Hi Melody, you can sit here next to me." Serena pointed at the empty desk on her left.
"Oh, thank you, Serena." Melody gave her a small smile and walked toward her seat.
Serena stared at her. She noticed her eyes were hazel, but as the soon hit her, they looked like an ocean green. Serena was fascinated, however, she felt something off about her.
"She's really pretty. Her hair is beautiful, but her eyes, somehow, look lonely." Serena thought.
The school bel rang and Melody walked home by herself. Serena notices her and catches up to her.
"Hey Melody! Wait!" Serena ran up to her. Melody turned to see Serena.
"Oh hey Serena!." Melody smiled.
Serena was exhausted from all the running.
"H-h-hey. Where are you headed?" asked Serena.
"Well I'm going to go see if I can grab a bite to eat. Would you like to come?" Melody asked.
Serena perks up.
"Oh yes! I'm starving! Here, I know an excellent place where they sell the best cake! Come on! Let's go" Serena yelled enthusiastically and ran up ahead of Melody
"Serena! Haha! Wait for me!" Melody ran to try to catch up.
Melody ran after Serena. As she ran someone turned a corner and bumped into Melody. A bunch of papers fly out everywhere.
"Oh! I'm so sorry! I should have looked at where I was going! I'm so sorry!" Melody panicked and began to quickly pick up the papers on the floor.
"It's okay. I wasn't paying attention either," said the voice of a man.
Melody gathered all of the papers and stood up. She looked up and saw herself starring a man. Her face grew red and she began to blush.
"I-I-I'm sorry," studdered Melody as she kept her eyes on the man.
"Oh, it's okay. Don't worry about it," replied the man. He stared at Melody until he heard his name.
"Darien!" Serena yelled and the man turned at the sound of his name. It was indeed Darien.
"Darien?" thought Melody.
"Oh, hey Serena. Howe are you?" asked Darien.
"I've been good. Oh, I'm sorry. Darien, this is my friend Melody. Melody this is my boyfriend Darien." Serena introduced.
Darien turns and smiled at Melody.
"Hi, nice to meet you Melody." Darien reaches his hand out to shake Melody's.
Nervously, Melody looks at him and takes his hand to shake it, "nice to meet you…Darien."
"She's a new transfer student at my school," explained Serena.
Darien looks at Melody and realized Melody is staring at him. He notices her ocean green eyes. He feels himself drawn to them and gets a warm feeling inside.
"We're about to go get some cake. You want to come with us Darien?" interrupted Serena.
"Yes, I'd love to." Darien said without hesitation.
Melody suddenly hesitates.
"Uh, actually, I'm not hungry anymore. Thank you though. I'll see you tomorrow in school okay Serena. Bye" waved Melody as she walks away.
"Oh, but Melody…okay bye," said Serena confused.
"Actually, Serena, I think I lost my appetite too. Maybe tomorrow? See ya" Darien said as he stormed off leaving Serena behind.
"But Darien…" Serena watched as Darien disappeared.
Melody is walking by herself and in deep thought.
"Darien…he's so…perfect. Could he be the one? No, who am I kidding? He's Serena's boyfriend," Melody thinks to herself.
Darien is walking by himself a couple blocks away from Melody and is in deep thought.
"Melody, she's beautiful. Her eyes, they are ocean green, but why do they look so lonely?" Darien looks up and notices Melody walking alone in front of him.
"Hey Melody!" Darien yells and runs up to catch up with her.
"Oh, hi Darien," Melody was surprised.
"Hey, where are you headed?"
"Well…uhm…I'm going home" Melody blushed and looked at the floor to avoid eye contact with Darien.
"Oh, well I was just about to go get something to eat…would you like to come?" Darien blushed.
"What have I done? Did I just ask Melody to lunch? Serena is going to kill me…but maybe she'll say yes," Darien thought to himself.
"Uhm…sure…I would love to," Melody felt her house getting hot.
"Great! Let's go," Darien smiled at her. He began walking with Melody, however, he kept feeling this strange feeling he has never felt before. He felt warm and happy.
"What is this strange feeling? What could it mean? Why am I so happy and have this warm feeling throughout my body?"
"Darien…are you alright?" Melody interrupted his train of thought.
"Oh yes, I'm fine." Darien nodded and smiled at Melody.
"Hmm…I have a strange feeling about him. Could this mean something? Can he be the one? No, there I go again. But he sure is kind, gentle, and thoughtful." Melody looked over at Darien and began to blush. All she could do is smile.
Melody and Darien arrive at Moon Cake Café, and they begin talking,
"So Melody, how do you like Tokyo so far?" Darien asked.
"Oh it really is beautiful," replied Melody.
"It sure is. Where are you originally from?" Darien was curious.
"Well, uhm…I'm not really sure to be honest." Melody hesitated and looked at her cake.
"What do you mean? Where are your parents from?" Darien was confused.
Melody hesitated. She looked out the window and looked up at the sky.
"My mother was a wonderful woman, she cared about everyone, especially me. She sacrificed herself for my happiness."
Darien looked at Melody and noticed her eyes change. They looked so lonely. He couldn't help but feel bad for her.
"Melody, I'm so sorry," Darien looked at Melody with a sorrowful expression,"
Melody turned to look at Darien and noticed him staring. His eyes seemed so peaceful.
"It's okay," Melody smiled.
Darien blushed.
Serena was walking by herself with crepes in her hand. Suddenly her communicator rings. She answers it.
"Serena here," Serena talks into the communicator with her mouth full.
"Serena! Where have you been? The scouts are waiting for you. Did you forget our meeting again?" Luna spoke to Serena through the communicator
"I'm sorry Luna, I just stopped by to buy a snack," Serena explained.
"Serena, there's no time for that. Rei has been having strange visions and dreams," Luna yelled at Serena.
"Hey! Strange dreams? Now that you mention it, I have been having weird dreams lately too." Serena mentioned.
"Yes, I know. That is why you need to hurry up so we can discuss it. It could be a sign of danger," Luna started to sound concerned.
"Alright Luna, I'm on my way." Serena closed her communicator and rushed to the meeting.
Meanwhile, the man with the pearl was in his house lighting a fireplace and reciting an evil prayer.
"Master of chaos, Father of Darkness. Reveal yourself to this servant who is ready to serve you," the man bowed down to the fire.
"My son, you have made it very far. You must unleash me by destroying this planet, little by little," explained the fire growing blue.
"Yes Father, but how can I do that?" asked the man
"You must first destroy the humans. Sculpt your evil warriors so they can attack these humans. Once they are all destroyed, they're life will be given to me and I will be released to cover this planet in chaos and darkness." Commanded the fire.
"Yes Father, I will do as you wish." The fire disappeared and the man began to sculpt his first evil warrior.
Just then, Rei was having a vision. In her vision she saw a blue fire and felt a bad aura.
"Just as I thought," Rei looked over at the everyone with a concerned look.
"What did you see Rei," asked Lita.
"Evil is coming, and this time it's stronger," replied Rei.
"Evil? You mean another battle is approaching us? Is our planet in danger?" asked Ami.
"I'm afraid so," Rei replied with an even more concerned look.
"WAHH! I THOUGHT WE FINISHED ALL THE EVIL. NOW DARIEN AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO MARRY!" whined Serena out loud.
"Oh Serena, this is not the time to be thinking about that. We need to prepare ourselves." Scolded Luna.
"Speaking of Darien, where is he? He should be here," said Mina.
"Oh, he went home. I'll call him later and tell him about the meeting," said Serena.
"Alright Sailors, we must be careful alert," warned Luna.
"Right." The Sailor Scouts nodded in unison.
Melody and Darien were standing outside of the café.
"Well Darien, thank you for having lunch with me but I need to go finish unpacking and start on my homework," Melody told Darien.
"Oh, how about I give you a ride home?" asked Darien pointing at his motorcycle.
"Oh, no it's okay. My apartment isn't very far, I can walk." Replied Melody.
"What apartments do you live in?" Asked Darien.
Melody pointed at a tall apartment building peeking over just a few blocks away.
"Tokyo apartments," Melody told Darien.
Darien suddenly smiled and his heart jumped.
"Really, what a small work. I live on the 15th floor of those apartments," said Darien enthusiastically.
"Oh wow, it is a small world," blushed Melody.
Darien hopped on his motorcycle and grabbed his extra helmet.
"So, do you want a ride?" Darien asked Melody as he handed his helmet to her.
Melody blushed and reached out for the helmet.
"Alright," said Melody.
"Alright then, hop on," Darien looked forward as Melody hopped on.
"Hold on tight," Darien felt Melody's arms wrap around his waist. He felt her lean forward pressed her upper body against his back. Darien felt his face grow red and hot. He felt butterflies in his stomach and felt that warm, happy feeling.
"I'm ready," she interrupted Darien's deep thought.
Darien hesitated, "Alright, let's go," Darien and Melody raced off.
Serena was in her room thinking about what Rei had said.
"Luna, if Rei is right about the strong, evil forces reappearing, do you think the Sailor Scouts and I will be able to fight it?" asked Serena.
Luna looked over at Serena and saw the concerned look on her face.
"Of course Serena. All you've got to do is believe in yourself," Luna tried to calm Serena down.
"I do believe in myself Luna, It's just that I have a feeling this will be a tough one. I feel as if there's more to the evil than we think there is. I have been having these strange dreams where a voice of a woman keeps telling me to protect her and someone else," Serena explained.
"A woman? Are you sure Serena?" Luna asked.
"Yes, it's very strange. Do you think they're the enemies and want to set me up on a trap?" Serena wondered.
"It could be. We must be very careful." Luna said.
"I must call Darien, he may be able to help," Serena looked at Luna.
"Good thinking," nodded Luna.
Serena picks up her phone and dials Darien's number. The phone rings a couple of times and then the answering machine answers.
"He's not picking up. He must be busy. I'll try going to his house," Serena hung up the phone and walked out her door.
"I'll go with you." Luna followed Serena out of the house.
Melody and Darien arrive outside Melody's apartment. Melody takes off her helmet and hops off the motorcycle.
"Thank you Darien for the ride," Melody hands him his helmet.
"No problem," Darien took the helmet and sets it on the seat.
"Okay, well, bye Darien," Melody blushes and walks toward the apartments.
Darien watches her as she goes in. He looks up at the sky and hops off his bike."
"Melody, she sure is beautiful. But what is this strange feeling I get when I'm with around her? When I look at her, I feel this immense happiness, and when I touch her, I feel this warmth. I feel love, but not the same love I feel when I'm with Serena. Somehow, this is different. It's gentle, strong. It's something I have never felt before. Could it be that I'm falling in love with Melody?"
Darien shakes his head as if trying to get rid of his thoughts.
"That is nonsense!" Darien says out loud.
Just then, Darien had a bad feeling. He thought of Serena.
"Oh no! Serena!" Darien hopped back on his motorcycle and sped away.
It has darkened and Serena and Luna are walking towards Darien's apartments.
"It's dark already. I hope mom and dad don't get worried," said Serena.
"We have to hurry if you don't want them to worry," Luna replied to Serena.
Just then, a red bull-like monster appeared right in front of them. Serena and Luna stopped suddenly and shrieked in horror.
"WHAT IS THAT THING" screamed Serena in horror.
"Serena! You better transform quick! I'll call the others!" Luna commanded Serena and ran to find the other Sailor Scouts.
"Alright, but hurry" shouted Serena.
"MOON, ETERNAL, POWER!" Serena screamed as she lifted her brooch.
Serena began to transform into Eternal Sailor Moon.
"HOW DARE YOU DISRUPT THE PEACE ON THIS PLANET! I'M ETERNAL SAILOR MOON! CHAMPION OF LOVE AND JUSTICE! I WILL RIGHT WRONGS AND TRIUMPH OVER EVIL, AND THAT MEANS YOU!" Eternal Sailor Moon introduced herself.
Just then, a voice was heard from the sky and an old man appeared before Eternal Sailor Moon.
Eternal Sailor Moon? How very nice to meet you," the old man smirked.
"Who are you? Why do you disrupt the peace on this planet?" Asked Eternal Sailor Moon.
"I am here to do my father's will of destroying this planet," explained the old man.
"Why would you do such a thing? There is nothing wrong with this planet, so leave us alone!" Screamed Eternal Sailor Moon.
"NEVER! BY DESTROYING THIS PLANET, MY FATHER CAN BE UNLEASHED AND DARKNESS AND CHAOS WILL RULE THE UNIVERSE!" shouted the old man.
"I will never let you do that!" shouted Eternal Sailor Moon.
"Very well then, you will suffer the consequences. Evil Warrior, finish her! " The old man commanded to the red, bull-like figure.
"Goodbye, Eternal Sailor Moon" the old man disappeared.
Eternal Sailor Moon draws out her Silver Moon Scepter.
"SILVER MOON!...CRYSTAL POWER KISS!" Shouted Eternal Sailor Moon as she pointed her scepter towards the Evil Warrior. However, nothing happens.
"WHAT? Nothing is happening! Why?" Eternal Sailor Moon became concerned.
The Evil Warrior attacked Eternal Sailor Moon, but she moves out of the way. The Evil Warrior was about to attack her once again, but Tuxedo Mask appeared and throws his rose and stops the Evil Warrior just in time.
"Tuxedo Mask!" Sailor moon turned and looked at him. Just then, the Sailor Scouts appeared.
"Sailor Moon, are you alright?" asked the Sailor Scouts.
"Yes, but my Silver Scepter isn't working! It's too strong!" Eternal Sailor Moon was now panicking.
"Let me try," Sailor Mars stepped forward.
"MARS…FLAME…SHOOTER!" Sailor Mars throws her flaming arrow but the Evil Warrior just grabbed it and threw it back.
"Oh no!" Sailor Mars jumped out of the way.
"My turn," Sailor Jupiter stepped forward.
"JUPTER…OAK…EVOLUTION!" Sailor Jupiter throws out thundering oak leaves but the Evil Warrior blocks them.
"What? It's no use!" Sailor Jupiter screamed.
Just then, Sailor Venus and Sailor Mercury stepped forward.
"I'll go next!" screamed Sailor Venus.
"I'm with you Venus!" exclaimed Sailor Mercury.
"VENUS…" Sailor Venus shouted out.
"MERCURY…" Sailor Mercury shouted after.
"LOVE AND BEAUTY SHOCK!"
"AQUA RHAPSODY!" Both Sailor Venus and Sailor Mercury both finish attacking. However, the Evil Warrior was able to dodge the attack without getting hurt.
"What? He just dodged it!" Exclaimed Sailor Venus.
The Evil Warrior went after Eternal Sailor Moon.
"SAILOR MOON! LOOK OUT!" Tuxedo Mask and the Sailor Scouts shouted.
Just then, a whip made out of music notes wrapped around the Evil Warrior. It tightened and was able to destroy the Evil Warrior. Eternal Sailor Moon, Tuxedo Mask, and the Sailor Scouts all turned to see who had just saved them. They all noticed the silhouette of a girl in a Sailor suit with long hair blowing in the wind. Eternal Sailor Moon ran toward the silhouette.
"Thank you for saving us," said Eternal Sailor Moon.
The silhouette turned around and began to walk away, "no problem."
Eternal Sailor Moon ran towards the silhouette and shouted, "Wait! Don't go! Who are you?"
The silhouette jumped towards the sky and disappeared. Eternal Sailor Moon gazed up at the sky.
"Who was that?" Sailor Venus chimed in.
"I-I don't know," said Eternal Sailor Moon.
"Could she be an enemy?" Tuxedo Mask gazed up at the sky.
"She couldn't be, she saved us," Eternal Sailor Moon turned to Tuxedo Mask. She then looked back up at the sky and closed her eyes.
Eternal Sailor Moon smiled, "thank you."
