Back at the Balvoan planet Keith confronted the Dark Moon army by using his bayard weapon. Even though they have their own firing cannon, they doesn't have any chance against him because they had realized that he have the same powers as the future king of Galra does. He destroyed each of them one by one while the remaining ones were retreated away, in which the Balvoans people were so very delighted. The old hermit was so very impressed of Keith's skills in fighting.

After the army had already left, Keith turned his back to them and said " All of you were safe and sound for now. But don't you worry, I'm here to help as long as I can do. "

The old hermit went approached to him, and said " I'm so very impressed, Sir Keith. By the way, how did you learned those fighting skills just like that? "

" Actually, I'm a part Galra. My mother was a member of Blade of Mamorra. "

" Oh, I see about it. "

But in a moment, they had heard someone approaching.

" Look I see something " the old hermit said

" Who? "

He turned his back. Much to his surprise, the person was approaching on the way was no other than Sailor Moon.

" Serena? "

" Keith! "

He hurriedly rushed to her and they hugged together in embraced.

" I'm so glad that you are safe and sound, my love. "

" I know. Astre was trying to harassed me and so I fight him back and escaped from the Dark Moon castle by riding in a space ship. "

" I had never thought that he had captured you for good. I'm so very worried about you so much. "

" I'm okay, Keith. I'll be fine. So, what was this planet? "

" These are the Balvoans. Their homeplanet was been attacked by the Dark Moon many years ago. So.. I had decided to helped them in order to fought against the Dark Moon armies back when and gained peace in this planet. "

" Well, I guess we have to get back to the planet Earth. Everyone were worrying about me. "

" Why? "

" So that Dark Astre might never going to after me. "

He nodded and said " Alright then, we have to make it quick back to planet Earth. "

The old hermit went approached to Sailor Moon.

" You must be the legendary warrior, Sailor Moon. I'm right? "

" Yes, I am. Actually, he and I were about to getting married after the war between Dark Moon was over. "

" I see.. but I will gonna gave you a special thing that can prevent you from targeting by that Dark Astre. "

Sailor Moon realized that the old hermit knows about of what was happened to her.

" Okay, just go ahead. "

Meanwhile at the Dark Moon headquarters, Aster was furiously that she was not here in the entire place and so he decided to go and pursued her by searching in every planets in every part of the galaxy. He searched for 5 hours but no sign of her everywhere, thinking on his mind that she had flee away. This makes him driven in anger.

After a few hours later, Sailor Moon and Keith were already left the planet Balvoan, riding on the Black Lion. Thanks to the invisibility cloak device that Pidge made with, they were not able to be seen by the enemy around.

Back at planet Earth, Hunk and Shiro were carrying some huge boxes just in case for huge emergencies. Much to their surprise, they had seen the Black Lion was approaching on the way.

" Hey, I guess Keith was back. " Hunk said

The Black Lion landed down on the ground. Keith along with Sailor Moon went down together. The two were surprised to see her.

" Miss Serena! You're safe! " Hunk said in delight

" Did that bastard hurt you? " Shiro asked her

" Not really. I fight him back and then I had escaped from their headquarters. " Sailor Moon answered in response

" Whew, thanks goodness relief. I guess Keith was getting so very worried about you that much. " Shiro said with a little embarrassment

" Shiro! Give me a break! " Keith protested, with a slight blush on his face

" Anyway, is Princess Allura and the others were in there? " Sailor Moon asked Shiro

" Sure, they are in inside. " Shiro responded

They went inside of the Academy arena. When the others sees Serena, they were surprised.

" Serena! You're safe! " Tom said with a surprise manner on his face

" Did Keith had rescued you? " Jerry asked

" No, I had escaped from the hideout all by myself.. from that bastard.. was trying to harassed me. " Serena answered in response

" You had fight back against him? Wow, way the go, Serena. " Pidge said

" Thank you, Pidge. So, what was the current status in here? " Sailor Moon asked them

" No sign of enemies approaching. We were helping the people to give some basic needs and to find a safe place so that the enemy will never notice it. " Princess Allura said in response

" I see. I guess we have to get prepared ourselves.. I guess we have to confront the true leaders of the Dark Moon and to find out the connection of that evil organization and the future Galra kingdom anyhow. " Serena stated

" Yeah, you say so. " Princess Allura said

Somehow, Keith's facial expression was anxious, still remember of what the old hermit said back then, in which Jaden was getting curious of his reaction.

Later on, Keith tells to the paladins that the old hermit told a prophecy that a child of darkness will be arise. On the other hand, due to Dark Astre had been coerced on her, Serena was felt nauseous in a painful state. And so, Keith told Allura and the others to kept watching at her condition.

" So.. what was your next move? " Shiro asked

" To find a cure " Keith said in response

" You mean like an antidote? " Pidge asked

" Exactly it is. That's the only way to prevent that bastard secret prophecy to be fulfilled. I must do this for Serena's safety. "

But Keith didn't know that Jaden had secretly overheard the conversation.

Later that night when everyone were taking responsibility of guarding Serena, Keith went out hurriedly out of the school campus. But much to his surprise, he was been followed by Jaden.

" Jaden? Why you had been followed me all the way here? "

" I'm following you is because you are worried for Serena's safety, isn't it? "

" Yes, I guess I had still remember of what the old hermit from the Balvoan said that a child of darkness will be born soon as possible. I need to find a special medicine that prevent from reproducing a child in her womb. I will never forgive that bastard anyhow. If I seen him once again, I will gonna punched him at the face with my fists. " with a little mad expression on his face

Jaden had understood that Keith was so very worried for Serena's safety. And so, he said to him " I'm also concerned for her as well. "

" You do? "

" Besides, she was my former fiancee. I will do everything I can for her. Also, I had felt the same way as you do. "

" Sir Jaden.. "

" Trust me, I can help you at all cost. This time, we can able to prevent that prophecy that you had told with about. "

" Okay then. I guess we shall be going before that bastard comes back to get her again. "

" Don't you worry, I had already told Tom, Jerry and Miss Allura to kept on watch at her. They're at the safe place. "

" I see "

And so, the two men went out of the place.

On the other hand, when Princess Diamond had heard the news that Astre had secretly abducted Sailor Moon without her permission, she was enraged in anger and she ordered the soldiers to arrest him at once.

" I guess you are feel frustrated, Your Highness. " Alto said to her

" Why he really wants that girl anyhow? I will gonna punished him for what he did. "

" Maybe he thinks that the moon warrior have the same resemblance as the future ruler, Neo Queen Serenity of Crystal Tokyo. I had tried to provoke him but he will never listen to me. "

Upon hearing the name of Neo Queen Serenity, she said with a little frustration on her face " That name.. makes me frustrated.. somehow.. I will gonna destroyed Aster first then I will gonna settled with that moon warrior. And besides, no one can have the future Emperor of the Galra Empire.. no one.. " as she looked at the image of Emperor Gazer

Alto, had understood on his mind that she was secretly obsessed towards to the future ruler and also to his present self, Keith.

Back when, Keith and Jaden had finally arrived at their destination, a hidden underground cave. But somehow, they were been confronted by Astre and a few soldiers.

" I had never expected that you two will gonna came here in this place. " Astre said with amusement on his face

" Why you?.. how dare to hurt my future wife just like that? I will never forgive you for what you did. " Keith said, with raging mad expression on his face, and then he released his Blade of Mamorra weapon

" Oh.. how brave you are, paladin of the Black Lion, Keith. And besides, I'm so very sickened of being jealous towards to you. I will make sure that she was belonged to me. " Astre said

" You can't have her, you bastard! She doesn't belonged to an evil man just like you! " Jaden protested

" And who are you might be, young man? " Astre asked

" I'm Jaden Yuki, the first fiancee of Sailor Moon. " he answered in response

" Heh.. an another one who gets in my way.. what a tough guy you are.. " Astre said, with amusement on his face

" If you want my fiancee, you have to passed us first! " Jaden said in a serious tone manner, activated his duel disk

" Fine then.. " still with amusement on his face

And so, the fight begins. Keith battled Astre through their main weapons while Jaden handled the soldiers by using his Elemental Heroes monsters to finished them off.

" I will never let you to lay a finger on Sailor Moon. I will gonna destroyed you to death! " Keith said with anger on his face

" You dare to say that.. she will be mine for real. " with amusement on his face

" Never! "

Astre tries to strikes him at the arm but in a moment of sudden, he was been teleport by a spaceship that it was owned by Princess Diamond.

" Hold on.. what was the meaning of this?! Why are you teleport me away?! " he asked

" The princess ordered to bring you back to the castle alive. " one of the Dark soldier said in response

" Why you?... put me down! "

Then, they carried him away and the spaceship departed away from the spot, making the two were wondered.

" What the? They had carried him away? " Keith wondered

Jaden went approached to him " I had destroyed his soldiers. But hold on.. why they taken him? "

" I'm not so sure.. maybe that they knew about his real intentions. It was good for a bastard just like him.. to be tortured to death. "

" I see. So, shall we proceed then? "

" Sure "

And they were continued walking in inside the underground cave.

Back at Duel Academy, Serena was laid down on the bed, felt terrible pain on her body. She was surrounded by Allura and the others.

" Just hanged on, Serena. Keith will gonna returned back, with the antidote. " Allura told her

" That bastard.. I will never forgive him for what he did to her.. I will gonna punched him in the face if I can do.. " Jerry said, with a mad expression on his face

" Wow, you really act like Sir Jaden after all, have very strong temper. " Hunk said

" You should say that again, Hunk. " Pidge said, with a sigh

" Hold on.. I don't seen Sir Jaden anywhere. " Lance wondered

" I guess he was coming along with Keith perhaps. " Shiro answered in response

" No way! It was? "

" I cannot take much longer.. it was coming... " Serena said, in a painful manner

" Just hanged for a little bit, bes. We can't let that prophecy to be happened. I'm sure that Keith might returned back with an antidote. " Tom urged

" Stay strong, Sailor Moon. I know you can.. " Rini said

" Rini.. " Serena uttered

After a few minutes later, both Keith and Jaden were returned back, brought the antidote.

" So glad that you came back on time. " Shiro said to Keith

" Yeah, somehow.. Jaden and I were been encountered that bastard a few hour ago at the entrance of the underground cave. " Keith answered in response

" It was? "

" Yes, but not much longer.. he was been carried away by the Dark Moon forces. " Keith said

" I see "

" We have to hurry. She was almost in a painful state. " Hunk said to him

" Can you get a cup? " Keith requested

" Sure thing " Hunk responded and he rushed off

Then, Keith went to Serena and said " Serena, I'm finally here. "

" Keith.. " as she looks at him

" The antidote was here. You'll be fine, I'm so sure of it. "

Hunk returned back, holding the cup.

" Here, Keith. " and he gave it to him

Then, he poured the antidote liquid on the cup.

" Are you sure it will gonna work? " Lance asked Keith

" Of course it will gonna work. "

After that, he gave the cup to Serena.

" Are you really sure that it will gonna work, Keith? " Allura asked him

" Yes, I'm so very sure. "

" I see "

" Hurry and drink it. " Tom urged

And so, she drink the antidote liquid.

" Just wait for a few moments.. " Keith said

After a few minutes later, the pain in her body was faded away. Her stomach was returned back to its original state.

" How was your feeling? " Keith asked Serena

" I'm getting better. The pain was gone away. " Serena answered in response

" Whew! Thanks goodness relief. " Jerry said

" I guess you should take a rest in two days. After you were fully recovered, we will gonna get back to battled against the Dark Moon forces. " Keith told her

She hugs him

" Thank you, Keith.. for everything.. "

" Not at all, my love.. " tapped his hand on her head

Everyone were acting in a romantic manner.

Back at the Dark Moon headquarters, Astre was put in the underground prison.

Meanwhile, Queen Merla was having a new secret evil plan in order to eliminate Sailor Moon and her allies. She must make sure that she will gonna catch and kidnapped Keith without being seen or suspected by anyone. Although she was not aware that Princess Diamond was also interested to Keith as well.

" I must destroyed that moon warrior and her allies.. the paladins of Voltron and then.. after I had destroyed them completely.. the paladin of the Black Lion.. will be mine for real... soon.. I will gonna ruled the entire universe.. " with an evil laughter on her face

And so, she and her forces were going on the way to planet Earth, to make the second strike against them.

Finally, the dark prophecy of Astre has been thwarted, thanks to Keith. But somehow, unbeknownst to Sailor Moon and the paladins, Queen Merla will gonna come back again to planet Earth, in order to destroyed them and to captured Keith as well.
