Usagi walked across the middle of the college campus on her way back to the apartment she had been sharing with the Senshi of Time. It had been two weeks since Setsuna had brought her back, and she was starting to get annoyed that the enemy had not shown their face. She needed someone, or something to take her frustration out on, then she heard it, a loud screaming coming from the park just off campus.

“It’s about time.” She grumbled as she immediately sprinted off, her book bag vanishing into her subspace pocket, and her fist meeting her other hand; a look of confidence and readiness spreading across her face. She dashed through a side alley and clasped her broach.

“MOON CRISIS POWER MAKE-UP!” she cried, a flurry of silver pink ribbons and glittery white feathers encasing her. In a bright flash it was over and Super Sailor Moon could be seen running through the alley. Her silver hair up in  twin buns, ponytails streaming out behind her along with the light pink bow at the back of her waist.

Malachite, Zoicite, Nephlite, and Jadeite floated lazily about twenty feet in the air as their youmas terrorized the people in the park. This time they really didn’t care if they gathered energy or not, no this time they were going to put an end to those pathetic Sailor Scouts and their Prince. A pity they had never found the Princess and her crystal, now that would have been a real prize.

“Look at those pathetic people” Jadeite cackled. Watching as the vine like youma he had provided attacked another couple. Malachite just yawned, bored; while Zoicite played with the end of her ponytail. Nephlite just watched indifferently, he was just looking forward to the fight coming up. Suddenly a glowing gold disk whisked out cutting the people free from the vine-like youma’s grasp then turned returning to where it had come from.

“And what do we have here?” Malachite asked his interest suddenly piqued. As he said this the generals and youmas turned towards where the glowing disk had disappeared.

“Mars Celestial Fire Surround!!” was cried out from behind them, immediately the generals scattered. Zoicite growled.

“Well, Well, if it isn’t the Sailor Failures.” Jadeite snarled at the Senshi of fire who stood confidently behind them.

“Make that Sailor Senshi Scum bag.” Another voice called out, followed by an attack from yet another location.

“Venus Meteor Shower!” and a shower of golden light appeared and hit numerous of the youma who howled in anger and frustration.  Then the four Senshi stepped out.

“I am Sailor Venus!”

“Sailor Mars!”

“Sailor Jupiter!”

“Sailor Mercury!”

“And in the name of our Planets, We will punish you!” they called out. The generals just laughed and smirked.

“They never learn do they?” Zoicite said barely amused.

“Oh I don’t know about that,” said another silvery, yet confident voice. Once again the generals and now even the Senshi’s attention was drawn to another area, the one where the glowing disk had vanished to earlier.

“I’d say it is you four bungling idiots that never learn anything,” the voice said matter of factly.

“Alright Miss know-it-all Show your self!” Malachite called out. The sunlight glinted off something silvery as it slowly stepped out from the trees. A few seconds later a silver haired young woman in a white, pink, blue, and yellow Sailor fuku appeared. She stood there confidently with her arms crossed, her position one of ease as she stared at the four generals, then lazily floated into the air until she was level with them.

“Why you insolent little!” Zoicite shrieked and launched a razor crystal at her. The girl simply moved to the side out of the things way.

“My turn,” she then stated and suddenly appeared in front of Zoicite punching her in the face, turned and kicked Jadeite the other direction. Turning once more she landed an elbow in Nephlite’s gut and a knee in Malachite’s. She then floated down to the ground and stood there smirking.

“Well, well, what did I say, Oh yes, that you never learn anything. Now let me show you what I can do to you, especially for dragging me away from my family and friends and the fight they face to just come here and kick your tails since you were so cowardly to attack when the Moon Kingdom was at it’s weakest, but you failed anyway didn’t you.” She taunted them while making a motion with her right hand, a staff as tall as her appearing in her right hand, the top consisting of a golden crescent moon. She then glared at the group of youma who had surrounded the other four Senshi while they had been watching her. Taking careful aim she attacked.

“MOON! BEAM! BLAZE!” she called out; four beams of light shooting from the crescent moon on her staff, each beaming finding a youma and turning it to dust in seconds. When this was completed she then turned to the four generals who stared in stupefied shock.

“Now go and take that as a message to your pathetic Queen, soon that will be you, and then her,” she told them. The generals unsure of what to do with this new scout took the opportunity to indeed escape, leaving four-shocked Senshi to stare at the newest Warrior of Justice.

When the generals were gone she turned to the Senshi.

Setsuna watched as her young friend and Princess came in the door smiling like she had just won a million bucks. Her charge continued in through the door dumping her book bag, and then heading to the kitchen for a snack, her curiosity piqued she followed. After all curiosity killed the cat, not the Guardian of Time.

“Well Usagi-hime what are you grinning about so brightly?” she finally asked, curiosity for once getting the better of the elegant woman. Usagi smiled as she bit hungrily in to one of the four apples she had pulled from the fridge, finishing it and getting halfway through the second before beginning to answer.

“Oh those baka Negaverse generals finally decided to show there cowardly faces.” Usagi said nonchalantly, like it was absolutely no big deal. Setsuna smiled finally understanding, then sat down across from her Princess to hear the rest of the story. “And I saw them, Setsuna. The Inners!!” Usagi exclaimed happiness radiating from her eyes. “All four of them were there, and they are already stronger then they were during the Silver Millennium and have the potential to be stronger. Oh I can’t wait to see them again face to face,” Usagi exclaimed her eyes getting starry.

*************

In a secure inner room in the temple on Cherry Hill in Tokyo, four young women, a young man, and two cats bearing crescent moons sat around discussing the days events. Rei Hino, Mina Aino, Lita Kino, Ami Mizuno, Mamoru Chiba, Luna, and Artimis.

“She was magnificent, she attacked the Generals and destroyed the youma like nothing.” Mina exclaimed.

“And somehow she knew us! Knew us from another Moon Kingdom!” Ami added.

“Could she be another Sailor Senshi?” Rei asked remembering that she had worn a fuku very similar to their own. Luna and Artimis looked at each other, then returned their gazes to the Senshi.

“There are four more Senshi, but this girl you have described. Her description or attacks do not fit any of them. We will have to keep an eye on her.” Luna told the scouts.

“Any sign of the Princess yet?” Lita asked changing the subject.

“Sorry girls, nothing yet. But we mustn’t give up hope.” Artimis answered. Mamoru looked at his feet and then turned his gaze to a window where the Moon could be seen as it began to rise for the evening. The Senshi watched him then sadly gazed at each other. They had found their Prince, but they had yet to find their light, their Princess.

**************

Deep in a dark cavernous room a woman with blood red hair and green snake like eyes sat on a dark throne upon a dais, a crystal globe upon a staff at her side. Kneeling on the floor in front of her were four figures, three men and one woman.

“This new Senshi you have described could present a problem. It is time to step up our tactics, but under the greatest security. I want NO slip ups. NONE! If you attract the Senshi at this point it could and will mean your demise. Now GO! And if by chance you happen upon a lone Senshi, capture them. We will weaken them by separation,” the woman told them in her cold and snake like voice.

Usagi sat quietly on a bench in a courtyard on her college campus, when suddenly she felt a hand on her shoulder.

“Hey there babe, mind if I sit here with you,” a brash young student drawled and then proceeded to sit down beside her, and place an arm around her shoulder.

“Excuse Me!” Usagi replied her face turning to one of disgust, immediately throwing his arm off her shoulder and moving to grab her bag and leave. Then he snaked an arm around her waist and pulled her into his lap.

“Relax Toots, and sit here,” he answered acting like nothing was wrong.

“I’m warning you Buddy, LET ME GO,” she hissed out angrily.

“I suggest you do as she says.” Another voice added; both Usagi and the man that held her turned to see four young women, all of them scowling at the man. He gulped.

“Hey there Mina, Ami, Rei,…(gulp) Lita…Hehehhehe…Yeah I was just leaving,” the man said and quickly released Usagi and moved to quickly leave. Usagi was a little quicker though and caught his foot with hers sending him sprawling.

“A little warning pal,” She stated now smirking, “Never mess with a Son.” She then grabbed her bag and turned to the four other women. “Thank you, Let me introduce myself. My name is Son Usagi.” She told them and then offered her hand shaking each of their hands.

“Hey no problem, we all have had incidents with that scumbag before,” the girl with sparkling green eyes, and wavy brown hair pulled up into a top knot pony tail. “Kino Lita. And the pleasure is mine,” she said as she gave her a firm hand shake.

“Hino Rei,” was the young woman with raven black hair and fiery violet eyes.

“Aino Mina,” came from the bubbly blond with cheery blue eyes.

“And I’m Mizuno Ami,” was the last with soft blue hair with warmth and intelligence shining in her blue eyes.

“Would you care to join us at the café Usagi-san?” Ami asked smiling warmly, the other girls nodding. None of them realizing the bond that seemed to be drawing them to this girl. They had seen her around campus the last few weeks and had for some reason or another taken special note of her. Usagi smiled brightly in response.

“I would love to.” And with that the five young women headed to the café unconsciously forming an age-old formation around the newest member of their group. As they walked to the café others took note of the group that was laughing and smiling, just radiating light, sharing their warmth with all around them.

Usagi, Mina, Rei, Lita, and Ami all sat happily talking as one could expect five young college girls to do. No one really paying much attention to the two cats that sat at two of the girls sides, or paying it any special attention to the group when a handsome young man joined the girls; the four girls introducing him to their newest friend.

“Usagi, I would like you to meet our good friend Chiba Mamoru, Mamoru meet Son Usagi,” Mina introduced them as crystalline blue meet dark stormy.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you Mamoru-san,” Usagi said politely to him, while her mind reeled, ‘I don’t believe it! It’s Him!! Endymion, and that means These are the Senshi….my Senshi.’ As she sat back down, what had been bright sunlight seconds before turned to darkness. Usagi immediately turned to window and then growled. ‘Damn them…They would attack now.’ She thought to herself then looked towards the four girls and Mamoru, noticed their attention was focused outside as well. With a slight surge of energy she took off.

The four Senshi studied the strange darkness knowing that they faced a major battle.

“Forgive us Usagi but we have to go.” Mina said not turning from the window, and then grabbing her pack. She didn’t get an answer so turned to look at their new friend to find her completely gone. “She’s gone…” she stated surprise catching the others attention.

“No time to worry about that now.” Rei stated, the others nodded as they grabbed their bags and followed Mina and Rei out of the café, and towards the origin of the evil that was spreading over the city.

__________________________

The four generals smirked and watched as their negative energy spread throughout the city covering it and turning everything dark.

“Hold it right their Scum bags. We are the Sailor Senshi and Champions of Justice. And in the name Venus!”

“Mars!”

“Jupiter!”

“and Mercury!”

“We shall punish you!!” they all finished together.

“Welcome Sailor stooges. We have a surprise four you,” Malachite stated and then each of the generals snapped their fingers and one after another four youma appeared. The first a golden orange with ice white stars covering her skin, the second was dark red, with seeming orange and violet flames covering it. Third was a dark green covered in vines and pale pink flowers and lastly was an icy blue with patterns of bubbles and water covering it. With that a full-fledged battle ensued as the four Senshi battled the strange youma. The four generals snickered as they watched the Senshi fight the youma helpless, to do anything else. With that they powered up their attacks and launched them at the unsuspecting Senshi.

“Goodbye Sailor Failures!” Zoicite cackled as their youma used the freeze and capture techniques trapping the Senshi in place as the General’s attacks rushed at them. Suddenly a flash of silver dashed out and knocked the Four Senshi out of the way, the four attacks hitting the figure dead on. Jadeite growled.

“Well if it isn’t the newest Sailor brat,” the silver haired sailor slowly stood to her feet and faced the four generals and youma.

“Get her,” Malachite said icily. The four generals and numerous youma rushing in. The four Inner Sailor Senshi struggled to break loose of the bonds, and help the girl. She was being attacked from all sides at once. When Tuxedo Mask arrived and helped the girls break loose just then there was a brilliant flash from the fight. The four youma were nothing more then dust vanishing on the breeze. But the Sailor floated in mid air suspended between the four generals, trapped. Her skin covered in bruises and cuts.

“Now girl.. tell us who you are,” Nephlite demanded. The silver haired young woman glared at them and smirked.

“I am the Champion of Justice, and defender of Peace. I am Sailor Moon,” she stated and then began to glow, the tiara that had adored her forehead vanishing and a glowing crescent moon replacing it. “And As I told you the first time we meet. You never do learn. For Not only am I Sailor Moon, I am she, Princess Serenity of the Silver Millennium and Moon Kingdom, and you Oh generals are dead,” she stated. There was then a bright silver flash as the restraints that had held her vanished, and her fuku transformed into a flowing white gown, similar but different to the white gown she had worn 1,000 years ago. There was then a silvery glow as the generals began to scream before vanishing into dust, the darkness giving way to her silvery light. Moments later she turned to the Senshi and Tuxedo Mask, her crystalline eyes revealing fatigue, trust, friendship, sadness, and pain.
