Chapter 2

"Dear, oh, dear," sighed Serenity. "How did this happen?"

"The doors flew open suddenly, and they just streaked away!" cried Pluto.

"Continue to stand guard. I have sent your Earth-self to help. I believe I'll contact the Starlights."

"Yes, my Queen."

Serenity flipped off the screen, and pushed a different button on the wall. A crackling noise sounded, and a voice called out, "Yes? Princess Kakyu speaking."

"Hello, this is Neo-Queen Serenity. We have an emergency, and the Starlights are in need," stated Serenity.

"Of course. I'll send them right away. We will do what we can to help. If you need anything else, let us know. Good luck."

"Thank you." Serenity walked back into the throne room and over to a window.

Looking out, she could see people rushing back and forth in confusion. Some lines had formed, and Serenity watched as they filed into the protection shelters of the castle. In the distance, there was a sudden flash of light, soon followed by a thundering roar and screams. Serenity looked and saw two black dots high up in the sky.

"That must be who is attack us! Where are the others?" wondered Serenity, fear rising in her chest. Suddenly, four more specks appeared, sending blasts of energy at the other two. There was an explosion of sound and light, and when it had cleared, the two specks were gone. "They must have gotten them!"

She was wrong. Just moments later, two figures, of human shape, appeared not far from where Serenity stood. The only thing separating her from them was the crystal wall, but even then she couldn't see them clearly. They both turned and faced her, and Serenity watched in horror as glowing balls of energy began to grow in their hands.

She turned to run, but was too late. The figures let loose blasts of energy at the crystal wall, shaking the entire castle. The crystal wall, fortunately, stood. Their powers were nothing like Serenity had seen before, but the Imperium Silver Crystal's power was obviously still stronger. The two figures neared but Serenity only got a glance of them, for suddenly, four mysterious figures appeared, sending blasts of energy at the two.

Serenity watched as they suddenly disappeared, and the wall took the blast instead. Once again, the castle shook from the enormous blast, but held. Serenity swore she saw one figure, with wavy shoulder-length, flaming red hair mouth, "Sorry!" to her, but she wasn't sure. The four figures disappeared, and all Serenity could do was stand there in awe.

"Of course they're stronger," she thought to herself. "They're from the future. The only thing is, just how far from the future did they come?"
