Prologue
Asabeth was looking at the stars from her room on the planet Melificent. "I never really noticed how beautiful they were until now," she said to herself. She continued to gaze at the stars until her teacher came in.
"Asabeth, Asabeth Marie!"
Asabeth quickly stood up and tried to look alert. The blueish light that entered the window cast a glow onto her curly, waist long brown hair and her tight blue suit. "Yes," she responded.
"It's time for your boxing lesson."
Asabeth cringed. " But I don't want to go. Why must I go? I'm sick of lesson after lesson of this and that,? she complained, "Why can't I just stay here and think?"
"Because you have a special mission to fulfill in your life. If you don?t exercise your body, as well as your mind, the bad guys will win.?
"Yeah, I know but I still think that I would be happier if I didn't have to do this."
"Well miss Beth you have a destiny and a mission to complete, so lets get on it."
Asabeth sigthed. After a pause she replied, "Yes, Onyx."
"Good girl."
Meanwhile on earth in the land of Crystal Tokyo, things seemed to be going well. Queen Serenity and King Endymion had just put their daughter, Reeni, to bed. ?Goodnight dear,? Endymion said softly as he began to shut the door.
?No, wait Daddy,? the little girl said as she sat up, ?Leave the door open just a little.?
?Alright,? Endymion said. He left the door open a crack and continued to walk down the hall with his wife.
?With the fall of the Negamoon,? Serenity said quietly, ?Things have been so peaceful lately. Reenie can finally be a normal child.? She looked up at Endymion and smiled.
?Yes,? Endymion said, stopping in the middle of the hall to kiss Serenity. He continued, ?But there are still those annoying Revolutionists.?
Serenity pouted. She said in a worried voice, ?Oh, darling, I still don?t understand why you don?t compromise with them.? Her hands rested on her husband?s chest.
?Serenity, what am I supposed to do? Of Course I can?t give into their demands; if I did then there would be no order.?
The queen bit her lip and looked down. ?Well,? she said, ?You could grant their request for a separate country.?
?No, that I could never do. Power must remain in this family,? the king said. He rubbed Serenity?s arms. ?It will be okay, dear. They have seemed to quiet down for awhile.?
?Alright?I just hope that if they do revolt again, it won?t be soon.?
What was left of the daylight faded out, and night set onto Crystal Tokyo. Everyone, with the exception of a few, were in deep sleep. From the palace, all appeared peaceful. In a small, empty street, an army of revolutionists began to form.
A young man in crystal armor rushed into the secret office of the revolution. ?The troops are arriving,? he said in a tired voice.
Before him, a blonde woman was sitting coolly in a chair. She stood up wearing a red, leather cat suit with black streaks down the sides and a zipper in the front. ?Thank you, Kenter,? she said smiling. She walked out of the building with Kenter behind her. As she appeared, hundreds of soldiers bowed as if in the presence of a goddess. She paused and then said in a raised voice, ?It is time. King Endymion and Queen Serenity will finally pay for their oppressive reign over this kingdom! We will not let our demands go un-answered!?
In the distance a man stood watching. He said outloud to himself, ?Good, Taenera, you better not screw this up.? All that the man could do was shut off all communications to the palace; anything that happened outside of the palace went un heard from inside. The rest was up to Taenera.
The revolutionist army began to tear towards the palace, leaving the city in ruin and all dead. As the palace came into Taenera?s view, a cruel smile reached her lips. Taenera and a small group of select soldiers quietly approached the palace; this glory was for them alone. Before they reached the entrance, the man that had stood watching them earlier appeared in front of them.
Taenera immediately fell to her knees. ?My lord,? she said softly. Apollo stood silently with his eyes on the destroction. Finally he spoke, ?Taenera, what the hell are you doing?!?
Taenera had a worried look on her face. ?Carrying out your orders, Apollo sir,? she said, looking up.
?These were not my orders!?, Apollo said angerly, ?I told you not to hurt innocent people! And children?! I?ll take it from here, retreat!?
?But, Apollo, I??
?Go.?
"Endymion, darling, where are you going?" Serenity asked worriedly.
"There's just and energy disturbance in the middle of the temple. I'm going to check it out."
Endymion walked into the temple and saw a man sitting on the shrine.
"Well if it isn't the king of the earth. I thought you'd never come."
"Who are you and where did you come from?"
"Oh, I'm sorry we haven't been properly introduced," he said, "I'm Apollo and you and your palace will crumble at my feet."
Then Apollo attacked and destroyed the palace. Endymion made a valiant fight but lost the battle..
"Asabeth, dear it's time for you to leave me."
"I can't Onyx how will I do this without you."
"You will find a way," he replied, "there will be others to help you."
"I can't do this."
"Yes you can, besides you will not remember me." he replied, "Take care Mars Princess," he said as he watched her be taken to the shuttle.
Asabeth took a deep breath." Goodbye, Onyx." Onyx turned and scampered away. Asabeth sighed and started down the hall. Athena stood at the side, the solomn soldier. She quietly lead Asabeth to her shuttle, putting Asabeth to sleep.
Athena joined the room where Sailor Ki was at
work making the planet earth green again and safe for others to live. "I'm going now to prepare Onyx. When you are done, you need to come with me.."
In the year 3985 in the month of April on the 8th day Asabeth was
born to her earthly parents on the continent of Australia. The others were reborn in scattered places.
