Princess Reini looked out the palace windows at the wonderous city below. Thousands of years had passed since the construction of Crystal Tokyo. Her mother and father sat on thier thrones, waiting anxiously for thier mysterious guest to arrive. The throne room doors bursted open, and all eyes turned to the shadowed figure in the black senshi uniform. In the stranger's left hand was a large staff, with a cresent moon of pure crystal on top. Thousands of tiny planet crystals were postioned on every inch of the staff. Reini gasped as her gaze drew to the largest crystal of all, that was positioned on the very top of the staff. The large, dark blue, circular crystal twinkled and shined in the afternoon sun that shone through the palace windows. The mythical Supreme Galaxy Crystal. The stranger walked slowly forward, toward the King and Queen, while her face remained in the shadows. Reini turned her attention to the stranger's brooch. She started as she realized the senshi warrior had no brooch. At least in a sense. In the middle of the stranger's black bowon her chest, was a circle of silver, a bit smaller then a child's hand. The silver circle looked like a large ring, except in the middle were two letters, G and P. The letters angled at points, almost seeming gothic. The senshi uniform was almost identical to Sailor Pluto's, except the top stop mid-stomach, and the skirt hang low on the waist. Her boots went to her knee, with a strange symbol pinned on it. The senshi woman stopped five feet from Neo-Queen Serenity and King Endymion. Everyone waited in tense silence for the stranger's next move. They all relaxed when she bowed to the majesties. Neo- Queen Serenity looked at the woman closely. No one else, but the king and queen could see her face, and to everyone else, she was engulfed in shadows. Her long, curly black hair, which went below her waist, was attached at the top, with a silver clip. It blew softly in an invisible wind. Finally, she spoke. "I, Your Majesties, am Sailor Galaxy, desendent of Galaxia. I have come at your command." Her voice was soft and low, almost like a melody, which comforted and removed the rest of the tension from the room. Neo-Queen Serenity smiled down at Sailor Galaxy. "Welcome to Crystal Tokyo, Sailor Galaxy. Do you know why we have summoned you here?" "I believe it has to do with the state of your court. The Grand Senshi haven't been seen publicly in a month," Sailor Galaxy reeplied softly. Neo-Queen Serenity nodded. "Three weeks ago, someone, somehow, entered the palace and was involved in a fierce battle with my court. My court did not suceed in stopping them," she stated sadly, tears almost spilling over. She waved her hand and the wall next to the throne opened. All eight senshi were encased in a transperant goo. Thier eyes were wide open and seemed lifeless. The way they were placed in the goo, seemed to mock them. Eeach was place in the position used when activating thier powers. Sailor Galaxy stiffened, visibly. The Queen smiled sadly. "We were told only you had the power to getting them out. That you know this technic." Sailor Galaxy moved further into the shadows. "Not only that, My Queen, but I have battled this threat before." Everyone gasped, including the king and queen. Sailor Galaxy continued. "Her name is Beatrix. From what I know, she wants to destroy the Grand Senshi in the past. Sailor Galaxy shifted slightly, resting her staff against her side. "She believes the Senshi ruined her life." She watched the Queen's face for a reaction. Serenity's face was pale. "How could my court have hurt her?" A cold wind swept through the room, leaving everyone with the feeling of fear. Sailor Galaxy looked down at her feet, but said nothing. Neo-Queen Serenity continued with the matter at hand. "We must find...Beatrix, and command her to remove this...thing. Unless you can release them? If not, maybe we can get someone to destroy it." "No, I am sorry, I don not know how. Destroying it won't work. Even if you did break through, they would be in a trace, never speaking, only staring lifelessly in front of them. I have seen this before. Only Beatrix can get them out." "Them you must find her and bring her back. She could do a lot of damage in the past." Sailor Galaxy turned her head to the side, and spoke toward the door. "Come forward." Reini looked toward the door. Eight shadowed figures stood in the doorway. Seven of them wore the same style of uniform as Sailor Galaxy, except they were different colors. The eighth wore the regular senshi uniform. In the eighth's hand was a Silence Glaive. Reini looked at the new senshi and took a step back. New Sailors!! Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Pluto, Uranus, Neptune, and Saturn were standing before her. Except these weren't the same senshi she'd always known. These were totally different women. They seemed stronger, powerful, and dangerous. They, like Sailor Galaxy, hid themselves in the shadows. "We know where she is. She has taken followers to do her bidding. She has traveled to the past." "Why?" King Endymion asked. "To kill the senshi, and change what has wronged her," was the response. Sailor Galaxy turned and walked toward the mysterious new senshi, with her head down, her hair shielding her face from view. When she stood in front of them, she turned and faced the king and queen again. She raised her staff slightly from the ground. She extended her right hand in front of her, and the room wathced in amazed silence, as a black crystal rose from it's place on the cresent, beside many others. The crystal floated inches above her hand, and Sailor Galxy tilted her head to the side. A large portal appeared beside her, and the eight senshi entered it. Sailor Galaxt saluted everyone in the room. "I'll be seeing you," she said, entered the portal, and it closed behind her. |
