Things to remember:

A) I own all characters who you have never heard only exceptions are Queen Serenity, Luna, Artemis, Beryl, Mamoru, Helios, the senshi and the shitennou

B) I do not own Sailor Moon, sadly. But that's okay. I'll live.

D) Roughly 15 chapters

E) This is the first of my Sailor Moon fics, meaning that it will have sequels.

Pure chaos was the current state of the Silver Millennium. Everywhere one looked one could find a battle of life-changing proportions. The forces of Queen Metalia seemed to be never ending and their endless energy was wearing down the forces of Queen Selene.

The 16th birthday of Princess Serenity had turned into a nightmare.

Just outside the castle grounds fought the first generation of senshi.

"Aqua pages!"

"Lightening dance!"

Queens Calliope and Eutrepe stood back to back as they lead their collegueas and troops into battle. The other Kings and queens, minus Neiva, Diana, and Clio, were attacking the others as well.

"I don't think we can win this, 'Trepe!" Calliope admitted as one of her attacks shoved back three enemies. They doubled. Calliope nodded wearily.

"I agree. We have to try though, Calli. Neiva said so himself." The blond reminded her friend. Calliope nodded, and with renewed determination, began to attack the enemy with all her strength.

On the individual planets, the second generation were doing the same. As Ares shot down the enemies with his arrows and fire and Zues with his lightening spears, the enemy began to retreat to the capitol. Marina noticed this pattern and spoke quickly of it to Aphrodite via their communication devices. Demeter's heart nearly stopped and she lead their return to the capitol.

In the shadows hid Queen Metalia, a wicked smile on her face as she watched these powerful men and women rush to their doom.

Admist the chaos, everyone forgot something vital: King Adam was still missing. He would remain missing until the end.

The Kings and Queens were rushing to the capitol for two reason: the first is quiet obvious: their Queen. The other is as well: their children.

Princess Lady Minako, head of Serenity's court, let out an irritated sigh as she frantically searched for the missing princess. When the attack had happened, Minako had shoved little Hotaru into Serenity's arms and ushered the court into the dugeons. While she and Setsuna had been discussing how to proceed from here, Serenity escaped.

"What's wrong?" Minako looked up to find Lord Kunzite, leader of the Shitennou, staring at her with concerned blue eyes. She felt herself relax as she walked towards the man that currently held her heart.

"Serenity is missing. Is she with Endymion?" Minako asked. Kunzite shook her head as they began to head off in search of the missing girl.

"I have no idea. He is missing as well." Minako nodded, taking this bit of information as the confirmation.

"Damn. I'm worried, Kunzite. My insticts say this is all going to end so badly." She whispered. Kunzite wrapped a comforting arm around her shoulders.

"I'm sure they are fine."

Kunzite couldn't be more wrong.

"Setsuna, do we have to do this?" Michiru asked softly as she watched Haruka coo to little Hotaru. She was referring to their duties after the fall of this era. Setsuna nodded, her young face grave.

"Yes, Michiru, we do. Now let's go to Elysian." She said, creating a traspertation portal. With a sigh, the heiress of Neptune nodded and moved to stand. She then helped up Haruka. As soon as Haruka was on her feet, the ground began to shake. Suddenly the world was caught in a blinding flash of light.

Exit these four Princesses.

Where in the hell are you, my Serenity? Selene wondered as she raced around the castle, trying to find her child. She let out a startled shriek as the castle shook on it's foundation without warning. Suppoerting herself against the wall, the Queen paused to gathering her bearings. Once she was sure she could move with steady determination, Selene once again moved forward, heading towards the balcony in front of her. What she saw made her gasp and brought tears to her eyes. She didn't even notice Luna and Artemis appearing behind her.

Queen Serenity's eyes widened as she watched her child hover above the ground with the Earthnian Prince beside her.

"No! Not my baby!" She cried. Ignoring her moon cats' protests, she jumped over the ledge of the balcony. She ignored the pain of her ankle snapping and pulled her daughter into her arms. She began to cry, tears streaming down her face and dropping into Serenity's dress..

"Oh no. NO!" She cried, grief wracking her frame. In her despair the Queen realized what she must do to set things right once more. Without hesitation, she summoned her secptor. She then summoned the crystal and placed it in the septor. Luna's eyes widened as she foresaw her lady's intentions.

"No my lady!" Luna cried out in protest. "You mustn't use the crystal. It's your life force. Without it, you'll-"

"I know Luna. But I must do what I can to save her. Save our court. Save our legacy. Luna, Artemis, you guide her. Guide them." The last Queen of the Silver Millennium said as she laid back and held the crystal in her hand, the crystal glowing with hope. "Clio, Cronos, Neiva, I beg of you. I, Queen Lady Serenity of the Silver Millennium, shall give up my life to save this Kingdom; to save our future. Please Silver Imperial Crystal, guide our people to a happy, peaceful time, where they shall be happy." She whispered, her blue eyes closing. With this wish in mind, Selene unleashed the full power of the Silver Crystal. It bathed the world in a soothing white light. Souls were captured from all planets and sent to an unknown place in the future. Their destiny was equally as unclear.

The end of the Silver Millennium was here, but the beginning of the Neo-Age would soon be upon them.

As the Moon Queen died, her father watched sadly as her silver tears slid down her cheeks. His child was unaware that those tears would crystalize the future for her daughter when the time came.

A/N: One or two more chapters are left and they will be face paced. Woot! Also, Adam's dissappearence will be explained in the fourth arc's prologue.
