Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to Sailor Moon, Robotech, or their characters, so please don't sue me. I have altered the aspects in which the Generals appear in this story once more. Originally many of you who have read the original version, know that I cloned all four Generals. Well now only three of them will be cloned while the fourth is a traitor. Also, I do not own the character of Ryoku/Jason Kino. This character belongs to Jason C. Ulloa who is the author of Sailor Moon AR: The Earth Scout Chronicles. The name Tranquility and the look of Sailor Sun belongs to Jendra who is the author of the fanfic's known as 'Sailor Moon Universal' & 'Sailor Moon Universal B'. This series is based on both my original Robotech Warriors series and Chibi Halo's Sailor Moon Macross. I am still going to write my original Robotech series, I just thought people might like to see a little bit of an Alternate Reality version to it. The names of the Generals are now Knave, Nathan, and Jared. These names were thought up by my other friend and fellow author named Twin Kats. I have also gone back and changed some of the character relations and their personalities. Now not only will she be smart but Serena will hardly ever get in trouble. This will be the new reason her brother Sammy makes fun of her. Please bare with me as I work on this story, I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoy writing it!
Robotech Warriors: The Early Years
by: Thunderbird
**Serena's P.O.V.**
Hello everyone and welcome to another chapter of Robotech Warriors: The Early Years. In the last chapter we sure did get ourselves into a jam didn't we! Stuck in a Dark Kingdom controlled building with Zoisite one of the last two generals left for us to fight. She's already hurt Tuxedo Mask but right now that's not the real shocker! Get this everyone I'm the Moon Princess! Me, Serena can you believe it? So what happens now? No one knows only time shall tell so now on with the story...
**End Serena's P.O.V.**
After Serena's transformation she kneeled back down by Darien and lifted his head onto her lap.
"My poor sweet Endymion I fear that you are growing weaker!" Serenity said.
"Serenity it's you my princess." Tuxedo Mask said.
All of a sudden Tuxedo Mask's outfit melted away to be replaced by black armor with strips of silver lining the chest plate.
'I swear I've seen that armor before! And I know I've heard those names before, but from where?', Sailor Knight thought to himself as he stared straight forward.
"Yes it's me and I'm beginning to remember things as well! I was princess of the Moon Kingdom and you were a prince from Earth. We were both very much in love and one day we were to be married but evil forces attacked and you were going to defend our kingdom. On the day you were to fight I gave you my star locket so you'd have a part of me with you at all times! Sadly that would be the last time I'd see you alive!" Serenity said with tears in her eyes.
As the scouts watched the scene play out between Serenity and Endymion they were completely unaware of the evil general Zoisite who was still in the room. That was; however, until everyone in the room heard her begin to speak.
"I hope you all enjoyed seeing your princess again because she along with her prince are going back into history!" Zoisite hissed as she began to raise her arms to perform an attack.
"I don't think so Zoisite! Moon Cosmic Power!" Princess Serenity said softly sending out one of her strongest attacks at Zoisite.
"Noooo!" Zoisite yelled as she went flying backwards into a pillar.
Meanwhile in the throne room of Queen Beryl, she was watching the scene unfold before her eyes in her crystal ball and she was angry.
"So not only does Zoisite disobey me but that stupid Moon brat has dared to attack one of my generals! Well I will see to it that she pays for this!" Beryl hissed.
Chapter 34: The Princess Revealed Part 2
Back on the top floor of The Star Light Towers building emotions were running high as everyone watched Zoisite crumple to the ground.
"Way to go Serenity!" Luna exclaimed in glee.
"Yes her mother would be proud." Artemis added.
It was at that moment that Malacite reappeared in the room.
"What's going on here?" Malacite asked looking around the room.
"Malacite please help me get them before they escape! We can beat them if we work together!" Zoisite said after she had gotten to her feet and slowly walked towards him.
"Oh they won't be going anywhere today and for starters! Darkness Wave!" Malacite yelled sending Serenity flying away from Endymion.
"No princess!" Mercury cried running to Serenity's side.
"We've got to protect the others!" Mars yelled running from her spot next to Jupiter.
"Mars is right! Let's go big brother!" Jupiter said following Mars.
"Right behind you sis'. Are you coming, Venus?" Sailor Knight questioned while running after his sister.
"Right behind you!" Venus said following the others.
"Be careful everyone!" Luna and Artemis said in unison.
As the five Scouts ran in between the Dark Kingdom Generals and their friends, Mars issued her orders.
"Leave now you two we won't let you hurt anyone anymore!" She ordered.
"Oh we'll leave but first we've got one last task to carry out!" Malacite stated.
"And just what would that be?" Sailor Jupiter asked.
"This!" He exclaimed raising a hand and causing black mist to shoot out past four of the Sailor Scouts. The black mist then surrounded Tuxedo Mask and suspended him in mid air by a dark energy field.
"What?" Knight exclaimed in surprise.
"What's he trying to do?" Venus exclaimed. The Scouts watched as a lavender glow enveloped him and vanished, taking him with it.
"No, they took Darien!" Mars exclaimed.
"Well Sailor Scouts we'll be seeing you!" Malacite said disappearing in a flash of black light with Zoisite hanging on his arm.
"Now what do we do?" Sailor Jupiter asked.
"Now we tend to Serena and get out of here!" Luna said as she and Artemis came over to the others.
"Luna's right. Our first priority at the moment is to protect Serena and get out of here, after all this is still a Dark Kingdom trap, after all." Sailor Knight added.
"Yes but how do we get her to detransform or even wake up for that matter?" Mars asked.
As if on queue Serena went from her Princess Serenity form to her Sailor Moon one. Mercury checked to see if she was alright.
"Well the good news is she's still alive but I'm not sure when she'll wake up because her energy is so low." Mercury told the others.
"I'll carry her then!" Sailor Jupiter said lifting Sailor Moon up off the floor.
"That's all well and good but how do we get out of here?" Mars asked.
"I can take care of that with my visor though it might take some time!" Mercury said getting up off her knees.
"That's fine Mercury." Artemis said.
"Yeah let's just get out of here!" Venus said. With that everyone followed Mercury as she tried to find a way out.
Meanwhile in a dark chamber Queen Beryl stood before the essence of Queen Metallia with Darien now in his Tuxedo Mask form on a table in front of her.
"Oh Great and Mighty Queen Metallia do we have the energy to turn Tuxedo Mask to our side?" Beryl asked.
"Yes but you must go slow for he is very weak!" Metallia told her.
"Very good and then I'll use him to get the crystal from Princess Serenity!" Beryl exclaimed wickedly.
It was at that moment that Malacite and Zoisite appeared next to Queen Beryl.
"Good job Malacite on retrieving Tuxedo Mask! Now then Zoisite would you mind telling me why you felt it was necessary to disobey my orders?" Beryl ordered.
"Please your highness it was a mistake!" Zoisite begged.
"A mistake huh! You call almost freezing Tuxedo Mask then throwing a fireball down an elevator shaft a mistake? Zoisite that was the last time you will ever disobey me or fail me for that matter!" Beryl yelled.
"Please you majesty it was my fault for not trying to train Zoisite to calm her temper down." Malacite pleaded.
"Malacite be silent as for you Zoisite, DIE!" Beryl yelled as she threw a black crystal shard at Zoisite which cut through her like a knife.
"Ahhhh! Malacite!" Zoisite cried as she fell backwards.
"Noooo!" Malacite said as he watched the woman he loved fall away from him.
"Now Malacite I want you to go and retrieve the Imperium Silver Crystal do you understand me!" Beryl ordered.
"Yes your majesty!" Malacite said with a heavy heart as he watched Zoisite fade away into nothing.
Meanwhile back in the maze which was once the Starlight Towers, the Scouts were trying to discover a way out.
"Which way, Mercury?" Sailor Venus asked.
"I'm not quite sure, you guys. It's hard to get readings in this place. It's like we're in another dimension." Mercury said as she typed away at her mini computer.
"Like a time warp thing?" Luna asked.
"Yes, it's some kind of strange combination of time warp and negative space, and so now, I have to try and convert the radical readings I'm getting in here into the same format as the original ones that got us in here. Only, I'm not sure my computer has enough memory to do all of the calculations." Mercury said with a sigh.
"Do you think you could use some help?" Sailor Knight asked walking up to her.
"That would be of great help, that's Sailor Knight." Mercury said with a smile.
"Well I hope it doesn't take to long cause I am going to need some help here pretty soon. She maybe a princess, but she sure isn't light." Sailor Jupiter said with a sigh.
"I heard that Jupiter!" Sailor Moon whimpered before getting off Jupiter's back.
"Are you alright Sailor Moon?" Mars asked.
"Yes I'm fine just worried about Tuxedo Mask! Where is he anyway?" Sailor Moon asked.
"I'm sorry Sailor Moon but Malacite and Zoisite took him from us!" Sailor Jupiter said.
"Oh I see!" Sailor Moon said looking towards the ground.
"Okay, you guys. We need to talk here. If we're going to help Darien, you have got to understand your past. Luna and I are just remembering it now, too. It's all coming back, isn't it, Luna?" Artemis asked turning towards his counterpart.
"Yes, long story, too." Luna said with a nod.
"Are we part of the Moon Kingdom, too?" Sailor Jupiter asked.
"Yeah, Jupiter. We've just gotta be. I mean, if Sailor Moon's the princess, we must've had important jobs, too. Right, Artemis?" Sailor Venus asked turning towards her guardian.
"Right as usual, Venus." Artemis said before both he and Luna began their big story. "It was a long time ago, we all lived happily in a beautiful place called the Moon Kingdom."
"Yes, and it was a wonderful, peace-loving time for all the planets, known as the Silver Millennium." Luna said.
"And Princess Serenity lived there with her mother in the royal Palace." Artemis informed them.
"Her mother, Queen Serenity, was a fair and gentle ruler, who was raising her daughter to follow in her footsteps." Luna said with a bright cat-like smile.
"But then, the peace was shattered when evil Queen Beryl found a way to break out of her Dark Kingdom and into our Universe. She attacked the Moon Kingdom with a vengeance. Queen Serenity defeated Beryl's strongest warriors, then locked them inside her Imperium Silver Crystal and sent them to Earth." Artemis continued.
"The Moon Kingdom was forever destroyed. Her power broken, Queen Serenity used the last of her strength to send Princess Serenity and her court to a new life on Earth. You girls were all princesses of your own respective planets, but also a part of Serenity's court." Luna said sadly.
"And then, Luna and I were sent to be your guardians and reunite you." Artemis finished.
"And me?" Knight asked.
"You are the reincarnation of the prince of Jupiter," Artemis told him.
"But how come we don't remember any of this? It-it doesn't make any sense." Sailor Jupiter said throwing her arms up in the air.
"Sure it does. Queen Serenity wanted us to be happy, so she sent us to a new time and place, hoping it would be peaceful there." Sailor Venus said snapping her fingers.
"But if the Dark Kingdom did show up again, Queen Serenity made sure we'd be able to activate the Sailor Scouts to fight off any new threats by Queen Beryl." Luna said with a nod.
"And now that we've got the Imperium Silver Crystal, Queen Beryl doesn't stand a chance against us." Artemis said with a cat-like smug smile.
"So basically, what you guys are saying is that our battle with them is just starting?" Mercury asked.
"Uh huh." Both Luna and Artemis said with a nod.
Artemis added to it by saying, "You've got it, Mercury, but now that they've got Darien, you guys have your work cut out for you."
"We've got to beat them. If we ever want lasting peace, we're going to have to beat the Dark Kingdom once an for all." Luna said.
"Right and we have to get Darien back too!" Mars exclaimed.
"Thanks for all your support guys, and thanks for filling us in on some of the back story Luna and Artemis. Now what do you guys say we get out of here?" Sailor Moon asked with a sad smile.
"Well, Sailor Knight and I have some good news to go with Sailor Moon's request!" Mercury stated turning off her visor. "With his help, I believe Sailor Knight and I have found a way out of here."
"Good work you two. What do you say, we get out of here and go get some burgers and get our minds off of all this?" Luna said with a smile.
"Oh yeah. I could go for that." Sailor Venus said pumping her arm up into the air.
"I'm sorry but you Scouts will be going nowhere!" Malacite said appearing out of nowhere in a flash of black light.
"Now what do you want, you jerk?" Mars hissed.
"I'm here for the Imperium Silver Crystal! So had it over brats!" Malacite ordered.
"What makes you think we'll just give you the crystal?" Sailor Moon asked.
"Actually, I was hoping you'd put up a fight!" He said with a smirk.
"Fine, if it's a fight you want, it's a fight you'll get." Mars said, her eyes burning with anger. "Luna, Artemis stay back with Sailor Moon where it's safe while the rest of us fight."
"Right, just be careful, all of you." Luna said to which Artemis nodded.
"I'll fight with you," Jupiter said, standing beside Mars.
"And so will I," Knight added, standing at her other side.
"Thanks," Mars told them both.
"You are wasting your time," Malacite taunted, his arms folded nonchalantly across his chest.
"Mars Celestial Fire Surround!" Mars yelled.
"Jupiter Thunder Clap Zap!" Sailor Jupiter yelled.
"Earth Thrust!" Sailor Knight yelled.
As all three powers flew towards Malacite, they were suddenly stopped by an invisible shield that surrounded him.
"Damn." Sailor Knight muttered.
"How is this possible?" Mars asked.
"I don't know, but we've got to do something." Sailor Jupiter said.
"Surprised well let's just say you've experienced my shield before but now you get to experience another aspect of my shield." Malacite said.
"What other aspects are you talking about?" Mars asked.
"Oh just this! Dark Reflection!" Malacite exclaimed sending Mars as well as for Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Knight's attacks right back at them knocking them both out cold.
"No Mars, Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Knight! We've got to do something!" Venus said.
"Okay Venus, let's do it! Stay Behind us you three." Mercury said turning her attention from between Venus to Sailor Moon and the two Cats standing at her feet.
"Alright just be careful you two!" Sailor Moon said.
"We will." Both girls said as they stepped towards Malacite.
"So you two want to try now?" Malacite asked.
"We sure do! Venus Crescent Beam Smash!" Venus yelled.
"Yeah so just like Sailor Moon did to Zoisite, we'll do the same to you! Mercury Bubbles Blast!" Mercury yelled adding her power to Venus' attack.
But as both powers flew towards Malacite they too were stopped by his shield like the other scouts powers were.
"No I put all my power behind that attack!" Venus exclaimed in shock.
"So did I!" Mercury added.
"I'm so sorry you missed but I'm afraid it's time you felt what your friends already did! Dark Reflection!" Malacite exclaimed.
"Noooo!" Both girls screamed as they like Mars, Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Knight were knocked out.
"No my friends you'll pay for that Malacite!" Sailor Moon yelled.
"And you'll pay for what you did to Zoisite, Sailor Moon!" He hissed.
"Zoisite deserved what she got just like you do too you Dark Kingdom creep a zoid! Cosmic Moon Power!" Sailor Moon yelled sending out one of her strongest attacks towards Malacite.
As the attack flew towards Malacite he thought his shield would withstand Sailor Moon's attack but he was wrong. When Sailor Moon's attack struck Malacite's shield it began to falter this made him a little worried.
"How is this possible! This girl just received the crystal and she can already wield this much power! I must retreat for now but I'll get that crystal yet!" Malacite said disappearing in a flash of black light.
Meanwhile in the room where Beryl was starting to brainwash Darien, she was standing over him with a sinister smile on her face as she began to question him to see if he was beginning to surcome to Queen Metallia's power yet.
"Who are you?" She asked.
"Darien Shields!" He exclaimed through clenched teeth.
"Maybe now but soon you shall be a warrior for the Dark Kingdom!" Beryl said.
"No I won't hurt Serena!" Darien yelled before passing out.
"Oh yes you will because soon you won't even remember your beloved Princess!" Beryl said laughing.
It was as that moment that Malacite reappeared next to Queen Beryl.
"So Malacite did you manage to get the crystal?" Beryl asked.
"I'm sorry your highness, I was able to over power five of the scouts but Sailor Moon was too strong due to her having the Imperium Silver Crystal so I lost!" He answered.
"That is quite alright Malacite! I have no worries that Prince Endymion will get the crystal from Princess Serenity." Beryl told him.
"As you say my queen!" Malacite said with a slight bow.
Meanwhile after Sailor Moon blasted Malacite away for the moment she woke the others up and all the scouts plus Luna and Artemis found themselves outside by the bay next to the ruined Star Light Towers.
"Are you going to be okay Sailor Moon?" Sailor Mercury asked.
"I should be asking you all that question Mercury! You all got hurt thanks to Malacite!" Sailor Moon told her.
"We're going to be just fine Sailor Moon we're all just worried about you what with Darien being taken by Malacite and all!" Venus said.
"They're right Sailor Moon we'll be just fine!" Sailor Mars said.
"Yeah, we're just all glad to be out of that place, Sailor Moon. Good job." Sailor Knight said offering a smile of support.
"Thanks you guys so much!" Sailor Moon said with a small smile.
"Finally now if we've got that settled can we go get something to eat?" Jupiter asked.
"Yeah let's do it!" Most of the group said.
"You guys go on ahead and I'll be along in a second." Sailor Moon said.
"Okay well we'll meet you over at the Crown okay!" Venus said.
"Venus get real she said that she'd only be a second!" Artemis exclaimed.
"Sorry!" Venus said looking a little embarrassed.
"It's alright come on let's give Sailor Moon a few minutes." Mars said.
"Good idea we'll be over by those trees if you need anything okay." Jupiter said.
"Sure thanks guys!" Sailor Moon said smiling.
"Your welcome!" Mercury said before following the other Scouts.
'I hope you'll be okay Serena!', Luna thought before heading off with Artemis towards the other Scouts leaving Sailor Moon alone to her thoughts.
As Sailor Moon looked out over the ocean as the sun slowly rose over the horizon she began to think, 'Darien where ever you are I promise I'll find you and bring you home to us and me most of all!'
She then turned and walked off towards the rest of the Scouts.
