The ground shook beneath the White Moon palace. Wall hanging fell to the floor and furniture moved across the room. Guards stood staring at the accumulating storm, almost as if the storm had caused the ground beneath their feet to seize.

"What was that?" Endymion asked the guard who ran panicked into the throne room.

"I, I don't know," the guard gasped, his hand tightly gripping the hilt of his sword, "A beast flew over the kingdom over the mountains to the east, bringing the storm with him."

"Was it one of Beryl's Youmas?" Endymion asked his voice harsh and demanding.

"No my lord," He panted, "It was much too large. It seemed to be from another world. When the beast landed on the mountain, there was a horrible force that shook the Kingdom, I'm sure that the Dark Kingdom felt the shock as well."

"We must call counsel with the Dark Kingdom, "Endymion declared as he dismissed the guard, "I'm sure the Dark Kingdom is behind this attack. If not, then we must both work to discover the truth."

Endymion walked through the palace halls searching for his advisor. Artemis had quite the habit of being around when he isn't needed, and being nowhere when he is needed. In the last room of the dungeon, before Endymion would determine that sending Luna or Motoki would be easier, he found Artemis, sleeping at his writing desk.

"Artemis!" Endymion shouted, startling the man so much that he jumped onto his feet knocking over his chair.

"Master Endymion!" he asked wide eyed and standing straight and tall.

"I need you to pay visit to the Dark Kingdom," Endymion said, "I've sent notice to Beryl of your arrival. You must be there and soon"

"Yes Master Endymion!" Artemis shouted as his figure wavered like smoke and disappeared.

"This should be interesting," Endymion said with a sigh before walking out of the damp dungeon room, set on finding his Queen and their warriors to alert them to the current dangers.

It wasn't long before he heard Serenity and the guards talking loudly in one of the dining halls. Opening the door, the occupants of the room turned to look at him in unison.

"King Endymion," the four guards said in unison as they stood up to bow.

"Makoto, Rei, Ami, Minako," He greeted them individually, "I'm glad to find the four of you with Serenity."

"Sir, do you know what the earthquake was caused by?" Ami asked, her bright blue eyes filled with wonder and fear.

"There was a monster that appeared, and that is the extent of my knowledge," He said, looking over the group of wemon.

Each had their own power, their own planet that was at their command. Ami, with her blue eyes, and aqua colored hair, controlled the powers of water granted to her by Mercury. Rei; filled with a fiery attitude and dark raven colored hair, got her powers from Mars, and controlled fire, and was quite the force to be reckoned with. Minako was different, with soft blonde hair and kind light blue eyes, more of a lover than a fighter, she controlled the powers of Venus, and though she didn't have an element, she had a list of triumphs that was rather impressive. Lastly was Makoto, strong, and very passionate with amber hair and wicked green eyes, she controlled lightning and thunder, ruled by Jupiter; few ever wanted to cross her path. All of them were Serenity's personal guard, and were more than ready to lend their lives in the name of the White Moon Kingdom.

"Was it one of Beryl's youma?" Serenity asked, tugging on one of her long blond pig tails, eyes wide with fear.

"We don't believe so," Endymion sighed, "Either way, we've set for a Counsel, Beryl and her warriors, and ourselves."
