A/N: I'm back with another update and I hope you all enjoy it! It's not as long as I would like it to be and I will admit I am leaning heavily on Stargate, but as the story progress I will try to bring in more characters from Sailor Moon. So without further ado... the next chapter.

( Land of the Rising Sun... )
Located somewhere within the metropolis which was the city of Tokyo, was a rather unassuming building which housed Ginga TV. A relatively new television station which had begun broadcasting just a few weeks ago and catered to primarily entertainment based programing in the greater Tokyo area. No one really knew just who the station's owners were or just who was in charge of the programing, but most people just assumed it was another start up which would last for a couple years before it was sold to someone else who would change the programing.
Little did anyone realize that this unassuming television station was nothing for than a front for elements which were far more evil or dangerous than any talent agent or television producer. For located in the very heart of the structure was a portal which lead into a room which was neither a part of time, nor space and in the center of it all, was a large, gold throne. Upon the throne sat a woman who was dressed in golden armor and who was undeniably THEE most dangerous creature in the known universe.
For years this individual and her minions blazed a trail of death and destruction across the galaxy, at a scale which would have shocked and even frightened any of the system lords. This one individual had quite possibly killed more people that all the system lords put together, yet she did not want to be seen as a "god" but rather something much, much more. But what ever that thing was, only she knew. Eventually her unholy crusade across the universe brought the demon and her associates to a blue and green orb which the inhabitants called "Earth."
There was a being here which had a powerful aura and it was strong enough to gain the fallen senshi's attention. But upon her arrival, the demon Galaxia soon learned that Earth was not going to be an easy prize to take and destroy. This world had senshi of it's own and from the looks of things they were quite powerful indeed, but what really caught her attention was that sudden appearance of three senshi from a world which she and her minions had destroyed. This was something the senshi of the galaxy had not catered for, as she did not expect Kinmoku's surviving senshi rally so quickly after the destruction of their home. But if these senshi were here, then it could only mean that their princess was with them as well.
But just where was she hiding? Galaxia could not sense her anywhere on this planet, which could only mean that princess' crystal was protecting her as it should. Princess Kakyuu was the one who got away, but that would no longer be the case if the former senshi of the galaxy could help it. But for now she would have to focus on obtaining star seeds of those who lived on this world, particularly those which belonged to the senshi who protected this planet and the one who called herself Sailor Moon. Maybe then would Kakyuu finally come out of hiding and face her.
But as the demon Galaxia pondered her next move, she was completely unaware that her would be target was not only on Earth, but had gained the friendship which a group who many in the galaxy both feared and respected.

The sun had yet to rise over the nation of Japan, as a United States Air Force C-40 "Clipper" touched down at Yokota Air Force base. Hours before said aircraft had taken off from Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado and after many hours of flight, the militarize Boeing 737 had arrived at it's final destination. On board was a USAF task force which had been requested by the Japanese government to investigate a possible "Alien" threat, but among the military personnel on board, was an individual who looked as out of place as a Ram Pick-Up, in a convoy of Honda Hatch Backs.
For Princess Kakyuu, her first time outside of the SGC was a rather unusual and informative experience. It was her first real look at this alien world and the one thing which the princess could not help to notice, was just how primitive this planet was when compared to her home. This planet apparently still relied heavily on fossil fuels to power their homes and vehicles, something her planet had not done in centuries ever since they were able to harvest energy from the sun. But from what she had learned from her "studies" at the SGC, the people of this world were still trying to find better forms of energy to use, so there was at least some hope for them yet.
On their flight towards Japan, Kakyuu could not help but to think about her life back on Kinmoku before it was so violently taken away from her. Of the peace and happiness which the her people, her friends and once had. Just why would anyone want to destroy her civilization? But now they were all gone, or at least that was as far as she knew. Her final hours on Kinmoku were filled with the images of cities burning and millions upon millions screaming for mercy, before they fell silent. Now her only hope to stop this evil once and for all, was to fined this Tau'ri her father had told her to find, and hope they could do just that.
Her long flight on board what these peopled called "The Clipper" was at least a pleasant one, it may not have been one of the luxury air ships which once existed on her home world, but it was comfortable none the less. The one she knew as General O'Neil had been communicating with someone he called "Carter" on a device called a "Lap Top." Apparently they were in a serious discussion over some matter, every so often she would hear the general mutter the words"Promethus" and "X-304". Kakyuu did not know just what they were, but they sounded important. The other male named Jackson on the other hand, had his head deep in some files which he had brought along on the trip. Just like the General, the doctor was fully engrossed with what he was reading and she was very certain that he would not be coming back to reality any time soon.
There were also two other individuals who the princess had not seen prior to leaving the bunker. They both had military uniforms on and currently they were fully engrossed with a movie which was being played during the flight. Kakyuu could not even begin to under stand why these to men were so interested with a film which made no sense to her what so ever, although she could not not help but to admire the one called Roman Pearce in said movie. She would sigh wistfully, if only she were only a few years older...
Within minutes of touching down, the Air Force Clipper taxied back up the runway and made its way towards one of the many hangers which lined the air strip. Waiting for them there were a group of individuals who represented both the USAF and the Japanese government, as well as a group of black Toyota Land Cruiser Prados and Hiace vans which the Japanese government had supplied for the visiting team.
"General O'Neil" a man in USAF uniform said with a salute " I'm Colonel Leland Daulton, welcome to Yokuta Air Base."
"Glad to be here." O'Neil replied as he returned the salute.
"General, this is Guro Tamadachi and Akira Daisuke of the Japanese Public Security Intelligence Agency." Daulton introduced the two individuals who were with him. "The Japanese government sent them over to assist you in your investigations."
"It is an honor to meet you, General." Guro said in perfect English, though his voice still had an heavy accent. "I am certain your flight was a pleasant one?"
"Better than some of the other flights I've been on." O'Neil replied, as the rest of his team exited the aircraft and formed up around the general.
"We have organized some hotel rooms in Tokyo where we can conduct our operations from." Daisuke informed the assembled group. "We can brief all of you once we get to the city."
"Well you all heard her. We're moving out!" O'Neil announced, as the assembled group of Air Force personnel gathered their items and loaded up the 4x4s. "Are you alright?" he asked Kakyuu, as he noticed the confused expression on the young woman's face.
Kakyuu herself had long since changed out of her traditional garb and by the suggestion of her new traveling companions, she now wore a white T-shirt with a pair of blue genes. While her red hair was now done up in a large bun with a pony tail which reached to her knees. This was done to prevent her from drawing unwanted attention to herself, the air force reasoned and although she was uncertain about the her new "look", Kakyuu had to admit it was far more comfortable than what she hadarrived with
"I'm.. I'm alright." Kakyuu replied, all be it a bit weakly. "It was, just a long flight. That's all."
"Ah, the dreaded jet lag." O'Neil replied, "When we get to the hotel, you should be able to get some sleep in."
"General... uh, O'Neil, do you really think that these 'Sailor Scouts' would be able to help us stop Galaxia?" the princess asked curiously, as she could recall being told about this group of individuals before leaving the bunker.
"Honestly, I'm not to sure about them myself." the general replied. "But if this Galaxia person is as dangerous as you say she is, then we are going to need all the help we could get. Or all the help these scouts could get if they encountered her first."
"And what about the Tau'ri?" Kakyuu asked in an almost pleading tone.
"Princess... believe me when I say they already know the situation." O'Neil replied, all be it with a flat tone in his voice. "But let's get going. We have a long few days ahead of us." and with that, the general turned and made his way over the the black vehicles.
Kakyuu by this point was starting to wonder if O'Neil or this SGC was ever going to help her find the Tar'ri. The universe was in great danger and instead of finding this group who could stop Galaxia, they were instead investigating... she did not even know! All O'Neil said was that they were going to some place called Japan because something had occurred which she may be familiar with. But how could she be of any service to the General when she did not even know what it was? Kakyuu knew that is could have been possible for Sailor Senshi to exist on other planets in the universe, but how did she even know if they were the same as the ones which existed on Kinmoku?
But just as she was about to voice her displeasure towards the general when the princess was overcame by a strange sensation within her.
A feeling which Kakyuu had not felt since she was forced to flee her home world and leave leave her guardians behind. As a matter a fact, it was the sensation she would get anytime her guardians, her senshi, were near. It was right at that moment which a wave absolute joy overcame the princess, her friends were alive! They too were able to escape and were now somewhere on this planet. She did not not know how and truth be told she did not really care, her senshi were here and from what she could guess, they were close.
'Maybe this trip would be helpful to me after all.' Kakyuu thought to herself, as she walked towards the line of vehicles. A small smile showing on her face, just as she entered

( Five Days Later... )
"So how is everything on your end?" O'Neil asked curiously, as he sat in his hotel room and stared into his personal computer. On the screen was the live image of his teammate and friend Samantha Carter, who herself was currently on a special assignment at Area 51. After meeting with the Japanese representative at the SGC, O'Neil had the colonel return to Area 51 to oversee not only the upgrade of the USAF Prometheus, but also the completion of Earth's latest space borne weapon system.
"So far so good." the Lt. Colonel replied. "Repairs to the Prometheus have been complete and we should have her back in space very soon."
"Well... that's good to hear." the general replied. "and the Daedalus?"
"We are having some difficulties with assimilating some of the Asgard systems with our own." Samantha replied. "But the Daedalus should be in the air by the end of the week."
"That's... good." O'Neil replied, "Cause I've been talking with the locals and they truly seem to be upset over what is going on here."
A puzzled expression soon formed on the blond's face. "Sir, what's is going on exactly?"
"In all honestly, I'm not too sure myself." O'Neil admitted. "But I have a feeling that we may need the Prometheus on this one."
"Sir, how is you guest holding up?" Carter asked, curious about the welfare of the strange individual who came to them for help. "Have you told her yet?"
"Not yet. I think we should wait to see what happens when we finally meet these 'Sailor Scouts' our hosts have told us so much about." the General replied, as he glanced at the photographs which had been provided by the PSIA. Even though Kakyuu seemed genuine in her plea for help, Jack wanted to make sure that this threat known as Galaxia was real and the last thing anyone wanted was to get involved in something in which the ones asking for help, were the same ones who caused the problem. It had happened once before.
"But for now I would really like to have the Prometheus in orbit as soon as possible. Maybe you can rig up a system which could detect strange energy signatures in Japan from space."
To say Carter was surprised by the general's suggestion for the battle cruiser, would be correct. O'Neil saw Samantha's expression and quickly replied, "Don't get any ideas, I've been talking to Daniel."
"Very well. Have a nice time in Japan." the Air Force colonel replied, before her image was replaced by that of the logo of the United States Air Force.
O'Neil for his part could only sigh heavily as he sank into his seat. Over the last few days, the USAF team had little success in tracking this Sailor Scout group, usually arriving just minutes after the scouts had appeared. To which all they could do was take statements from the witnesses before returning to their hotel. Hopefully Daniel's plan to deploy the Prometheus to scan the Japanese islands would help in their task at hand.
But right now though, the only thing which was on the general mind was to get some well deserved rest and after along day of just driving through the impossibly busy streets of Tokyo, all he wanted to do right now was hit the hay. So with another tired grunt, O'Neil got up from his chair and made his way to the bedroom.
But as the General got ready for a solid six hours of sleep he was completely unaware that in the coming days, his team was about to going to have a face to face encounter with not only the Sailor Senshi, but the new threat which they had been warned about.
