Prologue
Before the beginning of time, the gods and goddesses ruled, bending everything to their will. Worlds were born at their hands while others destroyed. One Goddess, Selene, decided that she would create her own people that she could nurture and protect. She chose a small orbiting moon next to Earth. Working carefully and with love, she created beings called Lunarians, after the moon that they resided on. She carefully raised them, guiding their growth until they had formed their own small forms of governments. After seeing her success, the other higher beings decided to create their own respective people.
For thousands of years, the gods ruled, but suddenly, as if over night, the gods and goddesses vanished, leaving powerful people in their place. The children of these people were the Sailor Senshi. The senshi were powerful women who could call forth the gods or goddess' power that she controlled. People feared, yet honored these maidens. With the gods disappearance, another kingdom appeared as if over night. Like the kingdom of the moon, it too resided on a moon, but this one floated around the outside of Pluto's own track. A Moon without a planet. Soon time passed.
In the time of the Silver Millennium, planets were still ruled by the descendants of Gods or Goddesses. These rulers were powerful and used their powers to defend their planets. They were ruled by the moon Queen Selenity. She held the ginzuishou. The ginzuishou was said to have been made by the goddess Selene herself. Selenity's powers were of life. Out beyond Pluto, a small rouge moon circled the solar system. On it lived Selenity's opposite in powers, and sometimes, temperament. Queen Eilonwy was the ruler who held the powers of death. Although she had these powers, she was not feared by the other rulers. Her people gave her respect, and the only people who were afraid of her, were the subjects of the other rulers. A legend was passed down in these two families. It said that one day the two families would merge into one enity and that the daughter would be the reincarnate of Selene. All evil would be banished and peace would reign. And so our story begins...
"Supreme Thunder Crash!" The monster flew back and hit a tree. It got up, it's eyes glowing with hatred for the senshi standing in front of it. The slime coming off of it oozed all over the ground. Mercury was typing on her computer, analyzing the left over Heart Snatcher. Sailor Moon gave Jupiter thumbs up.
"Good shot Jupiter!"
The monster turned it's hate filled gaze on the Lunar Senshi and charged Sailor Moon. It gave a horrible screech and Sailor Moon whipped her head around to see it coming straight for her. She screamed and closed her eyes and got ready for the impact.
"World Shaking!"
The monster smashed into the ground sending dust flying everywhere. The senshi covered the faces until the dust cleared a bit. The monster was getting up, but it looked dazed. Sailor Moon's eyes shot up towards the nearby tree seeing three figures as rose petals flew by.
"Brought by the coming of evil, Guarded by the Planet of the Sky, Uranus, I am Sailor Uranus, The Sailor of Wind." said Uranus.
"Brought by the shifting tide, Guarded by Neptune, planet of water, I am Sailor Neptune, The sailor of water." Neptune said next.
"Protecting the past, present and future, I am Sailor Pluto, The sailor of time, guarded by the time planet, Pluto." Pluto said last. The monster had started to recover and had began to stand.
"Sailor Moon, Distroy it quickly." yelled Neptune.
"Right! Moon Spiral Heart Attack!" The monster screeched and was turned to moon dust. Moon looked at the outer sailors. A part of her felt worried at the cold look on their faces. Putting on a smile anyway, she controlled her voice.
"Thank you for your help."
Uranus turned, "You wouldn't need our help if you weren't so weak. We won't be around all the time, what will you do then? What happens when someone gets hurt because of your weakness? Will you whine and cry? Pathetic."
The outers walked off, leaving a hurt Sailor Moon and furious inner senshi. Clutching her wand, Moon watched hopelessly as three of her outer soilders walked away. She wanted the group to be unified, yet nothing she did helped. Remembering the inners she pulled her feelings together. Sailor Moon wiped away some tears before turning. The inners looked at their princess, worried about her. Sailor Moon detransformed and smiled weakly at the four girls.
"They still haven't changed at all." Makoto said detransforming, "I mean Sailor Moon did save the world and Saturn."
Minako sighed, "I don't think they will change. Especially now that Usagi showed them that they were wrong, their pride's hurt."
Ami nodded," They are so used to fighting on their own that they are not used to working together so they push us away. Plus, they were never around during the Silver Millenium because they were supposed to protect the Solar System from invaders."
Rei grinned," Or maybe their pride is just hurt and they are mad that Sailor Moon saved the world and not them. Especially seen as Sailor Moon is so much weaker then them."
Usagi sighed, "Guys...Stop. The Outers have their reasons. They'll come around eventually. I'm going to go home, Ja."
The girls watched their leader and Princess walk away. There was concern on their face. Usagi kept going, and turned down her street. She looked around her street, the street lights were comforting. Her thoughts turned to the Outer Senshi again. She could order them to work together, but she didn't want to force them to.
'Why won't they help? Did we do something or are we really that bad?' A low laugh stopped Usagi.
"Who's there?" Usagi called out, dropping automatically into a defensive stance. Her eyes drifted around, looking for who ever was around, her senshi sense in full red alert.
"I demand to know who is there! Answer me!"
A breeze blew up, causing her to shiver and hug herself. She glared into the darkness, challenging the person, then heard the laugh again.
"Why it's the Moon princess and without her guardians. What an opportunity for anyone who would like to seek revenge." chuckled the voice. Usagi's hand automatically went to her locket.
"Moon Cosmic..." Usagi started. An invisible force grabbed her hand. Usagi gasped in shock and at the strange but familiar energy.
"No, no princess. I can't let you do that." A figure appeared in front of her, blurry at first but then it cleared showing a man dressed in preist robes. His cold eyes bored into Usagi's and she tried to pull away.
"Who are you?" Serena asked, her eyes a cold icy blue that she hoped didn't show how frightened she was.
"My name is Hades." The man said smirking and he bowed a little.
"What do you want?"
The man smiled, "I know of your secret powers, Sailor Moon, Senshi of the Moon. I also know of a hidden power inside of you. A power that is waiting for someone to release it."
Usagi frowned, "A secret power?"
Hades smiled. "Yes dear child. Your powers over the powers of death. They are very powerful and well deadly of course. They can be harnessed and used to do anything." Usagi's eyes widened at the lust she could hear in his voice. Hades went on, a smirk forming on his face. "In order to gain these powers you must be reborn."
Usagi's eyes narrowed. "What do you mean by having to be reborn?"
Hades laughed, "You truly are an innocent. You will die then be reborn with you new powers awakened. The body you are in now is useless. The powers of the White Moon have poisioned your body and made your body right now, unfit. Unfortunately, a side effect of the rebirth is that you will not remember this life but it is a small price to pay."
Usagi gasped, "No way! You're crazy, let me go!"
Hades' eyes glowed slightly. Usagi's eyes widened and she tried to pull away, but Hades' powers over ran her and she fainted. He smiled evilly.
"When you awaken you will be under my guidance...and you will distroy the bond between the scouts. And through you we will rule."
The next day at the scout meeting
"Ohhhhh... I am going to kill her. She maybe our princess but that doesn't give her the right to be late." Rei fumed. She crossed her arms over chest, her violet eyes seemed to have flames in them.
Minako frowned, "Yes, she is late but beyond late for normal."
"Did you try her house?" Makoto asked, her green eyes filled with worry.
Luna nodded, "She wasn't home..." Amy looked up from her computer.
"Oh..no..."
Meanwhile
Haruka was looking at her talisman. The light flickered off of the blade of the Space Sword. Her face was troubled.
"Haruka?"
"Ya, Michiru." Haruka answered. She looked at her lover and smiled. The aqua haired senshi frowned and sat down, looking concerned.
"What's wrong?"
Haruka sighed, "It's about the others, They are too weak. If the princess was to get in to danger, they might not be able to save her. Why did Queen Selenity place them as her protectors?"
Michiru giggled, "Are you finally admitting that you care for Usagi?" Haruka looked at her.
"Kenoko means a lot to me...She showed me that you don't need to sacrifice everything. She also is like a ray of light. Remember when we were protecting the Silver Millenium from invaders? How we would look forward to her visits?"
Michiru nodded, "She certainly brightened our lives, maybe we should protect her instead of the inners. Or..." The doorbell interrupted her. Haruka looked at the door, her expression serious.
"Do you feel that Michiru?"
"Someone very powerful is outside. But the power feels like Serenity's but different." Michiru looked at Haruka. Both of them got up and went to the door. They got ready in case of an attack, holding onto their transformation pens. When they opened it, they saw a little girl standing there. She had black curly hair that went to waist, her bangs falling into her eyes. She was about Chibi-usa's age. Her eyes were a soft silver color and held a vast amount of knowledge in their depths. She was weak looking (not the way Hotaru looked in the s series), but had an aura of strength that was noticeable. She wore a school uniform that consisted of a blue skirt and top that resembled the one that Chibi-usa wore. Haruka and Michiru glanced at eachother then back at the girl. The girl looked at them, a small smile forming on her face.
"Princess Haruka of Uranus, Sailor Uranus, and Princess Michiru of Neptune, Sailor Neptune, I am Princess Anastasia of Outer Moon, Sailor Outer Moon, the Rouge Sailor of Death. I've come because of the danger to the White Moon Princess, Princess Serenity."
