Richforce: Here begins the third and final part to the Vega saga: Ragnarok, which refers to the apocalypse of Norse mythology. I'm going to use this moment to clear a few things that you may ask me about when I refer to things in the Stars because I use a mix of anime and magna. First off the Starlights are girls who just disguised themselves as boys when they came to Earth, second in this story the Sailor Animates (Including Heavy Metal Papillon who never appeared in the anime) that came in Stars were artificial creatures created by Chaos that were given the powers of the real Sailor Animates, third here the Amazoness quartet will become asteroid scouts but the ones in the present have yet to learn of this. I plan on barrowing a few characters from the Sailor Moon: Another Story video game. All characters belong to their rightful owners.

Recap: It is now Serena's senior year of high school and new enemy has appeared, The Blackstar Empire. Led by Vega, who unknown to Serena was her older brother in the Sliver Millennium, they had found the lost "Vault of Astra" and now Vega's aide Merlor plans to release a being known as Astra from the vault. The Sailor scouts, by finding the Sailor Knights, being visited by their future daughters and enlisting Molly and Melvin as Sailor Earth and Earth Knight, have defeated three members of the Black Vanguard; The Empire's most powerful and ruthless fighting force. But now the most powerful member of the Black Vanguard is on his way and the battle that will determine the fate of the galaxy will soon begin...

Chapter 1: Prom Night

Serena had just finished putting on her lipstick. After almost a year of intense studies and a grueling college entrance exam all of her high school studies were now over, the next few days would be spent preparing for college, cleaning out her desk and locker and saying goodbye to her friends. But tonight was her senior prom and she was looking forward to enjoying this night with her friends, especially Darien. She looked into the mirror and saw herself as radiant beauty. "How do I look?" she asked Luna as she turned around.

"Stunning." said Luna. "Almost like you looked a thousand years ago."

"Thanks."

"Don't worry." said Rini. "We'll handle anything that may happen so just enjoy your prom."

"Are you sure you're all ready for your first patrol by yourselves?"

"We've all gotten a lot stronger since we came here, so we can handle any Nightmare if we work together."

"I'm sure you will."

Serena came down stairs and was greeted by her parents and brother. "I can't believe I'm saying this but you look more beautiful then your mother on our prom." said Richard.

"Your father's right." said Irene. "Call us if anything happens and don't do anything we taught you not to."

"Have fun." said Sammy.

The doorbell rang. "That must be Darien. I'll see you when I get home." She went out and saw Darien waiting by a Limousine. "I take it that Walter arranged for this ride."

"Yes, after all I'm not the only one who didn't go to his senior prom. None of the outer scouts or knights did either..."

"So they're going as chaperones. We better not keep them waiting."

The Blackstar fortress...

A female shaped ingot entered the throne room. "Prince Vega I have an urgent message. Emperor Dolean has fallen ill and is not expected to live. He orders you to return to Romna at once."

Vega got up from his throne. "Merlor you'll be in charge until Draco arrives later today, don't do anything on the earth until he gets here." Vega then left the fortress.

"Like, I thought he didn't like his dad." said Prim.

"He doesn't." said Merlor. "But if the emperor dies Vega takes the throne and then he could have us imprisoned, or if Dolean tells him about Astra we could be executed!"

"So what do we do?" asked Axel.

"We have to accelerate our plans; I know where the keys are and even though we can no longer use Nightmares, Draco should have no problem retrieving them. If Dolean dies then the coronation would take some time to prepare so that gives some leeway." At that moment buzzing sound came from a monitor. The monitor then showed the image of a man covered in black armor all over, styled to resemble a dragon except for his cold blue eyes. "Draco, I'm glad that you could come at such short notice."

"I was already on my way here when Vega summoned me; I'd give him a piece of my mind if he were staying with you."

"Why were you coming here, to avenge the defeat of your comrades?"

"I didn't find out about that until Vega called. Me and a freelance youma was in pursuit of a ship, it's carrying five certain rebel leaders to Earth."

Merlor closed his eyes. "It doesn't matter."

"What!"

"Once Astra is released the rebels will be crushed so it makes little difference if their leaders get away."

"I see, still I would like to see how much the planet has changed in the last thousand years."

"Very well, you take a look around but then come back; I have a theory on how we can get the keys."

"It won't take long at all."

At the school gym the dance was at full swing. The girls all looked especially beautiful and the guys especially handsome. "This is defiantly a night to remember." said Serena.

"It's almost over isn't it?" said Amy. "After we graduate it could be years until we see each other again."

"We'll find a way to keep in touch with each other."

"So much has changed for us in the past two years, even the stuff that doesn't concern our scout duties." said Lita. "Take me for instance, Rex somehow talked me into sky diving and it help me get over my fear of airplanes."

"Yeah, we all changed a lot since we started being scouts." said Raye.

"Well like they say 'Times change and we with time.'" said Mina.

"You actually got one of those proverbs right!" said Amy.

"Jamie helped me there."

"Hotaru is something wrong?" asked Michelle.

Hotaru sighed. "My father is remarrying."

"I see how that can be uncomfortable." said Amara.

"I'm fine with the wedding, daddy should happy, my problem is that I've been asked to be the maid of honor and if I hadn't aged quickly since that incident with Pharaoh Ninety I would be the flower girl."

"It's natural to feel disoriented." said Trista. "But I'm sure you're ready for this."

Across the room the guys were all talking about the same thing. "So we're all agreed." said Darien. "As soon as everyone is graduated and this Blackstar mess is over we'll ask the girls to marry us."

"Yes, we're going to do it because we love them, not because of something we learned about our future." said Greg.

"What's with you Gary you've been quiet all night." said Anthony.

"Oh, it's just this guardian of time thing with Trista." said Gary.

"What's the problem amigo?" asked Miguel.

"It seems like we both share that responsibility and the immortality that goes with it, but it doesn't look like our children would have the same. I'm not sure I can handle the fact that Trista and I would outlive any of our children."

"Don't give up yet." said Ken. "You'll both find a way to make it work out."

"We better get to the dance floor." said Darien. "We don't want to make the girls mad."

At that moment the mini-scouts were on a rooftop. "I didn't think patrolling by ourselves would be this boring." said Mini-Venus.

"It has been real quiet since we beat Scorpio." said Mini-Earth.

"Still I'd like to see some action." said Mini-Jupiter.

"I just like staying up this late." said Mini-Uranus.

Then what looked like a meteor crashed in the park. "What was that?" asked Mini-Pluto.

"I don't know but we better find out." said Mini-Moon.

When they got to the park they saw that the meteor was actually a starship. "I have a bad feeling about this." said Mini-Mars.

"Be ready for anything." said Mini-Mercury.

"Its opening!" said Mini-Neptune.

"Get ready!" said Mini-Saturn.

"Ah, Senshi in training, I could use a short warm up." said Draco.

Back at the dance the couples were slow dancing. "Serena, this is the best night of my life."

"Me too, nothing could ruin it."

It was at that moment a youma burst through the wall. It was a large and muscular with a jaw full of sharp teeth. "Looks like I found you at last!" he said pointing to Serena.

As everyone panicked Serena and the others talked. "We can't change in front of all these people." said Amy.

"He's just after me, if I could get him alone I could transform." said Serena.

"Any last words?" asked the Youma.

"Only that you should make sure you got the right girl with two long braids." said a new voice. It belonged to a girl about Serena's age. She had blonde hair and blue eyes and two blue arrow shaped marks on her checks. Her hair was done in two long braids coming from red ribbons. She wore a skin tight black outfit that went from her feet to a white collar followed by a frilled collar that went to the top of her neck, had gold rings around her ankles and wrists, and gold shoulder blades. She had a Tiara with an arrow mark in front.

"The Youma turned around. "Wait a minute; you're saying you're the rebel leader?"

"Gee and you figured it out all out by yourself." At that moment four other girls with the same check marks wearing slightly different variations of the first's uniform gathered around her.

"We evacuated everyone else." one of them said.

"You guys sit this one out." She said looking at the scouts and knights. "And we'll show you what the Sailor Soulshields can do!"

"Sailor Soulshields?" Serena asked.

Each of them got into a pose. "Sailor Nabu!" said one with blue eyes, blue hair that covered her ears in the back, a blue highlighted uniform and a blue stone on her tiara.

"Sailor Nergal!" said one with red eyes, red hair done into a thin ponytail, a red highlighted uniform and a red stone on her tiara.

"Sailor Marduk!" said one with grey eyes, gray hair done into a thick ponytail, a green highlighted uniform and a green stone on her tiara.

"Sailor Ishtar!" said one with blue eyes, blonde hair that went down past her waist, a yellow highlighted uniform and a yellow stone on her tiara.

"Sailor Sin!" said the one who appeared first. (These characters are based on the opposite Senshi in the game Sailor Moon another story. Sin's name is from the Sumerian moon god and the others are derived from the nearest Sumerian counterparts of the roman gods that the scouts' planets were named for)

"I'm gonna smash you!" the youma said.

"NABU GLACIER CRUSH!" Sailor Nabu formed a large ice chuck above the youma which fell on him.

"NERGAL BLAZING MISSILE!" Sailor Nergal launched a fireball that exploded on impact.

"MARDUK GIGAVOLT CRACKER!" Sailor Marduk unleashed a giant lighting bolt.

"ISHTAR STREAMING LIGHTS!" Sailor Ishtar attacked with a number of light beams.

"SIN AURA SLICE!" Sailor Sin's hand glowed white and she gave a karate chop at the youma. A second or so later the Youma appeared unharmed.

"Looks like you..." but he didn't get to finish his sentence as he was cut in half along path of the chop and was reduced to dust.

The Soulshields turned to the scouts. "Sorry if he mistaken you for me, But I'm sure you could have handled it Sailor Moon."

Serena was surprised "How did you..."

"We developed the ability to sense the powers of other Senshi." said Sailor Nergal.

"So why was he after you?" asked Walter.

At that moment an explosion was heard from the park. "What!"

"We better check it out!" said Ken.

As they ran the Soulshields told their story. "Our worlds were once part of one kingdom ruled from planet Sin, but the Blackstar Empire took over and has ruled our planets for generations." said Sailor Marduk.

"But after centuries after they were lost we discovered the powers of the Sailor Soulshields." said Sailor Ishtar.

"Now we're trying to use them to liberate our homeworlds." said Sailor Nabu.

"We heard that there were some Senshi on this planet who defeated three members of the Black Vanguard. And we came in hopes bringing you back with us to set our planets free." said Sailor Sin.

"Well it looks like they set their eyes on Earth." said Serena. "You'd understand if we want to protect our world before we leave for another."

"Of course, that's why we're here, to help you and then bring you with us."

They got to the park and found a crater, but what caused it seemed to have left leaving behind arriving spectators, paramedics and ten very injured reverted Mini-Scouts.

"Oh my god! RINI!" Serena screamed.

Rini looked into her eyes. "I guess we weren't really ready..." she then passed out and the paramedics loaded her onto an ambulance.

"Rini no!" Each couple was worried about what would happen to their future child. "This wouldn't have happened if we didn't go to that stupid prom!"

"Don't be so hard on yourselves." said Sailor Sin. "This looks like the work of Draco, he's in a class all his own, I doubt you could have beaten him without taking heavy losses."

"That doesn't comfort me very well." said Serena. "They came from the future; they're going to be our children."

"I understand better then you might think. That brown haired girl fits the description of one a boy I met with gave a dog to." She showed them a picture of a boy with green hair and blue eyes.

"So?" said Molly.

"His name was Anshar; he's going to be... my son."

Serena was feared with her whole heart that Rini wouldn't make it.

Back at the fortress...

"Had fun?" Merlor said as Draco came into his lab.

"I was disappointed really, my opponents were weak and I'm surprised that it took the earth this long to come as far as it has."

"Well now that you've had your fun it's time to get down to business; I know how to get the keys but I'm not sure if it will work. I found some test subjects that I want you to visit."

"Give me the details and no one will stop me."

Richforce: What kind of test does Merlor have in mind? You'll just have to find out next chapter. This chapter is dedicated to those who died when my country was attacked almost three years ago.
