A Change in the Balance

Prologue: The Dream

The time shifted around her. She opened the gate to see what had changed. Then she saw what she feared would be coming. Evil had been given an advantage over good... but she needed to know what had caused this. She grabbed her staff from where sat and started into the gate. She saw all that had happened and that was to happen. So much had changed and she started to look for the event that started the chain reaction. The stream was in a state for change. There were event that she had never seen. Final she found what she was looking for, "It could not be!" she recoiled in shock.

She closed her eyes and started back towards the gate. "So it has began, for now there is nothing that I can do." The gate reopened and she exited the time stream. Placing her staff beside her bed she waited until it was time for her to go to her friends.

The young blonde sat quietly awake in the darkness of her room, as the fear sat in. Soon she would drift off into the world of sleep and the dream would begin. It would the same dream that had been haunting her for six months now. Her eyes were heavy and she know she had lost the fight. The dream was coming.

The whole dream would be the same as always. The dream would all happen in the third person, though she wished that it wouldn't. As the dream started she would see herself crying alone, but she was unable to understand why. Another figure would come, take her hand and lead her away. She would be appalled by what she saw but this was not the first time.

The inner senshi lied scattered on the field of battle lifeless. There was only one missing beside herself. The battle was fierce her dream self was having problems and it was looking as if she would not win this fight. Then would come this other, standing beside her they would call upon their powers. She wished she could see who this other person was or had some clue as to what was happening or even better yet how she would allow something like this to happen. Still there was nothing. The power collected above them and when it was at its peek they fired the final blast. The target was their enemy and hit with deadly accurse and thus the enemy fell. Slowly the face of her enemy became clear. It was...

With a start she awakes from her dream. She closed her eyes and wondered how and why. The white cat sleeping beside her purred softly. "At least one of us is having a good dream. Artemis what's wrong with me?" she sighed.

Artemis moved with a slow low purr, "Mina what are you doing up? You have school in the morning." Mina could still hear the sleep in his voice and she smiled.

"Nothing Art just a bad dream that's all."

A concerned look formed on his face, "You want to talk about it?"

"No maybe another time I need sleep." Mina rolled over into her bed and as she drifted back to sleep she prayed that the dream would leave her alone for the rest of the night.
