A Message From The Distant Past

One night Luna was out and about, she had an excited look about something because she was running to Serena in a hurry.

Serena was sleeping in her bed and she was talking in her sleep again.

"Tuxedo Mask, where are you?"

"Serena!" Luna called coming in through the window. "Wake up big news!" Serena opened her eyes, but was still asleep.

"Tuxedo Mask I love you!" Serena said in her sleep. Her eyes turned to hearts.

"Serena!" Luna shouted. "Sailor Venus and Artemis found the entrance that leads to the Dark Kingdom's hideout!"

"What did you say?" Serena shouted, suddenly jumping awake.

Everyone later all got together at the abandoned pet shop that sold Sammy the Channelas they all stared down an abysmal doorway that looked like an underground tunnel.

"I finally found it!" Sailor Venus said proudly.

"Good work Sailor Venus." Sailor Mars praised.

"Finally this will come to an end!" Tails said relieved.

"Then I can go back to doing what I do best and bash Egghead!" Sonic smiled. "So let's do this!" Then everyone leapt down into the tunnel. Luna and Artemis ran ahead, Sonic and Tails took the middle and the Sailors to the rear.

Something in the cave caught the cat's attention and they leaped down another tunnel. A strange green dragon made of green mist caught up behind the Sailors. Sailor Venus took notice of it.

"Energy!" Sailor Venus panicked, the dragon roared and it turned into Malachite.

"I would love to welcome you ladies to the Dark Kingdom, the animals are mere dead weight but since they have rare jewels I'm sure we can make an exception." He snickered. "But the preparations are not done yet. So I will take you somewhere more fun. Sonic and Tails stood off between the Sailors and Malachite."

"Give me a break!" Sailor Jupiter shouted and she used her attack.

"Supreme Thunder!"

Malachite just used his powers and warped out of the way and the lightning missed him.

"Sailor Moon!" Malachite yelled. "If you quietly hand over the Silver Crystal, I will let you live! And Sonic! Hand me over the Chaos Emeralds and together we can take down Eggman!"

"I'm thinking the same, Malachite! If you tell me what you've done with Tuxedo Mask, I won't punish you!" Sailor Moon demanded.

"You honestly think I would trust you after all you put me through!?" Sonic shouted in disbelief.

"What impudence!" Malachite shouted. "I shall send you to the chaotic world of multiple dimensions!"

"Chaotic world of multiple dimensions?" Sailor Moon asked confused.

"It may be the primitive era in Africa when dinosaurs roamed." Malachite explained sounding mysterious. "Or it could be the era in Europe when fierce wars broke out."

"I don't wanna be sent to a messed-up world like that!" Sailor Moon cried. Malachite made a hand symbol and he threw a strange magic at the heroes, they were sent back and Sailor Moon dropped the Crescent Moon Wand.

"The Silver Crystal will be mine!" Malachite yelled lunging for it. The crystal glowed and smacked Malachite's hand away and it sank into the portal with the heroes.

The Heroes all screamed and saw time race past them and the development of humanity and all living creatures. The wand glowed and they were all lying unconscious in some old ruins.

"Where are we?" Serena asked, getting up and looking around.

"These are the ruins of Silver Millennium." Said an older female voice. "The land of gods that once attained the pinnacle of glory."

"Silver Millennium?" Serena asked, she looked up in the sky and saw a bright light and it morphed into a lady, she looked like an angel, but the strange thing was she looked almost exactly like Serena but her hair was a very light shade of green. She wore an elegant white gown and had four fairy wings on her back.

"I am here to bring you a message from the distant past." The lady explained.

"Is this a twin sister of yours?" Sonic asked, Serena looked behind her and saw Sonic on his feet standing on a pillar staring at the woman.

"Nice to meet you Sonic!" The lady smiled.

"How do you know me?" Sonic asked, shocked.

"That and all your questions about what brought you and your friend here will be answered." The lady assured. "I am the incarnation of the Moon Goddess, Serene. I am the Queen of the Silver Millennium, Queen Serenity. I am your mother in the past. Sonic, ever since you, Tails, Eggman, and the Island appeared at our world, my spirit could do nothing more than watch you guys, that's how I know your names."

"Why?" Sonic asked.

"Because I didn't know about the visitors for your world." Serenity said. "I had to be sure that I didn't bring an apocalypse."

"What? You're my mom?" Serena said stunned, Sonic jumped at that statement. "What do you mean by that?" The other woke up and arrived at the scene.

"I revived Luna and Artemis from their cold sleep, I had them make contact with you and watched over all of you." Serenity explained as she moved to a stone and shrank to the size of a small doll. She created a blinding light and it projected a vision of the past when the Silver Millennium was alive.

"We are long-living life forms born on the Moon. Our mission is to protect the sacred will passed down to us on the Moon, the legendary Silver Crystal, and to watch over and aid the progression of Earth's evolution."

"Remember, Serenity.. of the time when you were living as the princess of the Moon. Serenity, you adored the green trees and wind of the beautiful blue Earth, and often gazed up at it. Then you found love. She showed the vision of Princess Serenity standing on the balcony of the Moon castle and staring up at the earth."

"Princess Serenity!" Prince Endymion called, and she looked down at the gardens and saw the prince.

"Prince Endymion!" Princess Serenity called.

"Please pardon me for being late to the ball." Endymion bowed.

"I have been waiting for you." Princess Serenity smiled.

"Something terrible has happened." Endymion said with fear. "Most of us on Earth have been brainwashed by Beryl."

"Beryl?" Princess Serenity asked confused.

"Beryl has been possessed by an evil energy called Metalia and now she is taking advantage of the human's yearning for the longevity of your people, and getting ready to attack the Moon!" Endymion explained.

"Who is there!?" A guard shouted, apparently Endymion shouldn't have been there.

"See me in the ball!" Endymion called as he ran away and the guards chased after him.

Back in the present time the cats were running through the tunnels.

"Where did everyone else go?" Luna asked.

"Even if it's only us!" Artemis shouted. "We have to find the Dark Kingdom's hideout!" Little did they know a floating monitor up at the roof of the tunnel was watching their every move.

The cats came outside the tunnel and they found themselves in an icecap with a horrible blizzard flowing.

"What is this place?" Luna shouted, as Artemis was struggling to stand on his feet.

"The North Pole?" Artemis guessed.

Back in the vision, Princess Serenity was going to the ball and as she was sliding her hand down the rail of the stairs hers was touched by Endymion but he was dressed as Tuxedo Mask.

"Princess may I?" He asked. They began to dance. Tuxedo Mask pulled her into his arms and began to whisper. "There is no doubt that a bitter war is about to break out between your people and us Earth people. I may be your future enemy, so it would be bad for my identity to be known for now. So please pardon my appearance." Then they continued to whisper and tango.

"You will be my enemy?" Princess Serenity whispered.

"Metalia is not a human being. She is a mass of evil energy." Tuxedo Mask whispered. "Beryl is a witch. By using the power of Metalia, she will try to conquer the Moon and Earth." Later they both showed up on the balcony. "If we do nothing, this Moon will be destroyed. We must not waste a moment in obliterating Metalia, who possesses an enormous amount of evil energy. In order to Crush Beryl's ambitions!" He took her arms in his hands. "I would like your help in this Serenity. Will you believe what I just told you?"

"Yes." Princess Serenity smiled. They closed their eyes and kissed each other.

"Later the evil army arrived and strange enough they were traveling on an evil black mist through space."

"This is terrible!" Luna cried running through the halls of the castle.

"The people of earth are attacking us!" Artemis screamed. Dark lightning struck the kingdom and destroyed the pillars and some of the castle. The Sailor Soldiers of the past used their attacks on the dark mist.

"Bubble Spray!"

"Fire Soul!"

"Supreme Thunder!"

"Crescent Beam!"

The attacks did nothing and the mist shot at the ground and created a fissure and it sent the Sailors flying. The evil army touched the ground and began the invasion. Being led by the four generals the Sailor fought during their conflict with the Dark Kingdom. Queen Beryl stood on a rock and watched her army pillage and burn.

"HAHAHAHA!" She laughed. "Starting today, I will rule both Earth and the Moon! I will not allow anyone to defy me!" She raised her staff in the air and made a bold declaration. "Our beloved Metalia this is the birth of our Dark Kingdom!" She used her staff and laid waste to what's left of the castle, the head of the army, who was Malachite and the other three generals of the Dark Kingdom, just laughed at the destruction.

Princess Serenity just stared at the sky from the balcony as her castle crumbled around her. Beryl appeared in front of her and she just gasped.

"So." Beryl said with a slick tongue. "You are princess Serenity?" She lunged at her. "I will destroy that pretty face of yours!" She was going to attack with her staff but a red rose shot and stopped it. Endymion was standing a few feet away from her on the right.

"Beryl I will never forgive you if you lay even a single finger on the princess!" Endymion snapped.

"Endymion!" Beryl shouted. He stood between Beryl and Princess Serenity. "Why do you protect the princess of the Moon? You are the prince of Earth. If you just marry me, you could be king of both the Moon and Earth!"

"Beryl, you are being misguided by Metalia!" Endymion shouted. "Who possesses evil energy. Wake up! Rid yourself of the evil mind!"

"Shut up!" Beryl yelled. "I will kill you, too!" She used her powers and she was pulled into a wind and carried Endymion away as both he and the princess cried their names. Princess Serenity jumped off the balcony and reached for Endymion's hand and she caught it but Beryl used her powers again and separated them. Queen Serenity, along with the cats, ran to the scene in time to see both the Princess and Endymion floating in the air for they were dead.

"Princess!" Luna cried.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Beryl laughed. "She is dead! The Moon Princess is dead! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Queen Serenity fell to her knees as she cried, she then took out the Silver Crystal and attached it to the Crescent Moon Wand and then it began to glow.

"Queen Serenity, if you use the Silver Crystal." Luna sobbed. "Your life…"

"My life is nothing compared to peace on the Moon and Earth." Queen Serenity said sadly. She raised it above her head and chanted the spell.

"Moon Healing Escalation!"

The magic was being worked on Beryl and her army.

"WHAT!?" Beryl screamed staring into the light. The Shadow warriors were sealed away and the ghost of Metalia floated above in the sky and the magic hit it and it growled in pain and disappeared.

"Lady Metalia!" Beryl screamed again as her form was ripped apart and vanished, her army has done the same thing, and all the evil beings are gone and the light has returned to the kingdom.

Back at the North Pole Luna and Artemis were huddling with each other to keep warm. Until Artemis collapsed in the snow.

"Artemis, hang in there!" Luna cried.

"I'm fine." Artemis said getting back up. "What about you, Luna?"

"No, I'm fine. I can't die until we find their hideout!" Luna shouted. Then they both walked on until they approached a volcanic crater with a dark flux pouring out into the air.

"This is!" Luna said, with delight.

"We've found it!" Artemis said relieved, and the monitor was a few feet away from them and it was still watching them. "Finally we've found the entrance to the Dark Kingdom's hideout!"

"We need to tell everyone right away!" Luna shouted, and they turned around but they were cut off by Malachite who appeared before them.

"But it is already too late." Malachite smirked.

Back in the vision.

"Luna, Artemis." Queen Serenity said weakly as she was laying on a broken pillar.

"Yes?" They both said sadly.

"The Silver Crystal can be used for peace if it is used with the energy of a good heart." She clutched the crystal in her hand. "But, if it is used with the energy of an evil heart, it will become a terrible weapon." She gulped as she felt pain overcome her.

"Queen Serenity!" Cried the cats.

"I have been able to seal Metalia away with the Silver Crystal, but there is no knowing when she might be revived again." Queen Serenity said even weaker than before. "This Crescent Moon Wand can only be used by a descendant of this kingdom. If Metalia should return to life again in the future, give this to Princess Serenity and protect the peaceful world."

"Yes, my lady." The cats sobbed. "Princess Serenity and all of our Sailor Warriors, I wish there was a way to have them avoid this, may your love be fulfilled in the future on Earth." She raised her hand and the crystal and it rose into the air and all the residents were put into spheres of light and were carried off into the air. "In the future on Earth, please live happy lives." She cocked her head and shut her eyes and her head rolled over, this was her last breath, she is now dead.

The wand fell out of her hand and it flashed and it put the cats into capsules and they joined the people and left, and the vision ended.

"What about me?" Sonic shouted. "You said you would answer my questions!"

"Sonic there was a time when the power of the Sailors were given to you. That was an attack of knighthood." Serenity explained.

"Knighthood?" Sailor Moon repeated, confused.

"You see this attack can only be done by those who were chosen by destiny who are born to protect and serve the Sailor Warriors, like knights. Sonic, Sailor Moon is the leader, the other sailors could lend you their powers to fight, it was your destiny to protect Sailor Moon. Funny I never thought it would be a hedgehog, there are others for each Sailor try to see if you can find the others." Continued Serenity. "But you should know, this attack can only be performed in very special circumstances. You must figure out how to do so on your own."

"Well. Now to your questions." Queen Serenity continued. "While my body died, I soon learned that my spirit lost none of its potency. I was still wanting my people to not be into battle with Beryl again so once I figured out that Beryl's seal was beginning to break, my spirit traveled the stars searching for a solution. I came upon a distant planet, this was your world." Then she projected another vision.

"I sense power from this planet." Serenity's spirit said, staring at the planet from afar. "This is much more stronger than Metalia, maybe this can help us!" Serenity's spirit flew down into the planet and saw the Island. "The power is there!" She flew into a temple and followed her senses until she came to the shrine of the Master Emerald in the Hidden Palace. She gasped in astonishment at the sight.

"This room, so foreign, so strong, is it good or evil? I cannot say." She flew to the top of the stares and saw the source and gasped. "This giant green gem! These seven multicolored jewels! I can feel a consciousness inside this giant gem." She thought for a moment, then got on her knees and bowed before the Master Emerald and began to pray and beg to it.

"Please! My kingdom has been destroyed by evil, I was able to seal this evil away at the cost of my own life! Destiny must have brought me to you! Please I'm sure this evil is due to return soon and I don't want the people to suffer it as they have before! You can easily do something about it! Will you not help them?"

The Master Emerald had no response, it didn't glow or show any reactions.

"My daughter and her love will suffer if you don't do something!" Serenity began to tear up. "I don't want them to die like I did! Please help them!" Still no response.

"Hey you! What are you doing here!?" Shouted a voice, Serenity turned and saw Knuckles staring at her. "You're transparent, you're a spirit!" Serenity jumped and flew up and away and the vision ended and the heroes were returned to the present time. Serenity disappeared for she had nothing more to say, leaving the heroes to let these revelations sink in.

"We…" Sailor Moon said.

"Traveled into the Past." Sailor Jupiter cried.

"So that's why the Island floated to Earth!" Tails said.

"The Master Emerald was answering the prayers of the Queen!" Sonic gasped. "But I think she didn't expect to get trouble from Eggman, or us to arrive either."

"So you being here is a real blessing!" Sailor Mercury said. "You are destined to protect Sailor Moon, and there are others who are destined to be like that to, but for us."

"This is definitely a life changer!" Sonic said, scratching his head. "But when Beryl is gone at least my job is done."

"Now, we know why we're Sailor Warriors." Sailor Mars said.

"Help!" Luna cried, and everyone turned to see Malachite as he threw a magic spell at the cats and they were sent flying by the spell.

"Luna! Artemis!" Everyone cried, they both hit the ground unconscious.

"I won't let you hurt them!" Sailor Moon shouted.

"Sailor Moon? It can't be!" Malachite roared in anger. "I sent you into the chaotic world of multiple dimensions!"

"You won't always get your way in this world!" Sailor Moon shouted. "Thanks to you, we've recovered our past memories!"

"Now I know what brought me here!" Sonic smiled. "I guess it was also fate that also brought Eggman here."

"So we will…" Sailor Mercury said, taking a stance.

"Thank you for that!" Sailor Mars shouted, also taking a stance.

"Don't give me that sass!" Malachite hissed. "You're still wet behind the ears!"

"Give back Tuxedo Mask!" Sailor Moon demanded. "No, Endymion!"

"Hand over the Chaos Emerald you have and leave forever!" Sonic also demanded.

"I will if you quietly hand over the Silver Crystal." Malachite hissed again.

He created two dark magic blades and threw them at Sailor Moon and she was cut all over and fell and Sailor Venus caught her.

"You're more sinister than I imagined!" Sailor Mercury yelled. "I'll never forgive you!"

"We are inside my own space." Malachite said making more blades. "Will your attacks still work against me, I wonder?"

"We can still beat you!" Sonic said, taking out his two chaos emeralds, and Tails taking out his, and Sailor Mars and Jupiter taking out theirs.

"Those Chaos Emeralds will be mine!" Malachite shouted.

"Everyone, we have to combine our powers!" Sailor Venus instructed. The emeralds glowed and then all the heroes glowed with them. Then the Sailors used their transformation sticks to create a wall of power.

"Mercury Power!"

"Mars Power!"

"Venus Power!"

"Jupiter Power!"

"Everyone!" Sailor Moon called, as Malachite threw the blades and they cut the Sailors. "Even if you repaid us with nicer haute couture dresses, I would never forgive you for cutting up a girl's clothes!" Then she used her wand.

"Moon Healing Escalation!"

The light left the wand and the power all went into Sonic's body.

"Ok!" Sonic said. "I'm feeling the power now! This must be that knighthood thing again!"

"I am one of the Great four of the Dark Kingdom, Malachite! On my pride, I will not yell, Refresh!" He made another blade and threw it at Sailor Moon, Sonic flew up and curled into a spin dash and charged at Malachite and the Blade bounced off of Sonic and went back to Malachite it sliced him through the stomach and Sonic sped and finished him off.

"Impossible!" Malachite grunted. As his blood splattered on the ground. "With my own weapon, and the filthy rodent! Zoisite! Guide me to the world where your soul is drifting!" He faded, symbolizing that he is now dead.

The power went away.

"Sailor Moon." Luna gasped. "That was tremendous power."

"She's different than usual!" Artemis said.

"Princess, Serenity, the Dark Kingdom's hideout is at D-Point in the North Pole." Luna said.

"If you don't hurry, the sunspot will expand!" Artemis cried. "We have no choice but to launch a surprise attack!"

"Okay! We'll march into the Dark Kingdom right away!" Sailor Moon said.

"Not yet." Sonic said. "Before we do, we gotta pay a visit to our friend Knuckles, I believe we will need the Chaos Emeralds for this fight!" Sonic said.

Eggman's base.

"So." Eggman said twiddling his mustache as the flying screen flew away from the scene of the battle, he was the one spying through the monitor. "Malachite is dead, and Beryl's end is coming. Our time to strike is coming up. SCRATCH! GROUNDER!"

"Yes your putridness!" Scratch and Grounder responded, they ran through the door stumbling over each other until they stood up and saluted the doctor.

"Now is the time!" Eggman announced. "Take the weapon and perform the task I have assigned you, not even you idiots can screw this one up!" They all walked to a chamber where Eggman's Secret Weapon, was awake and ready to receive orders. "I have a job for you." Then the whole room and Eggman and his badnicks broke out in maniacal laughter. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
