Hello Hello!
How is every one?  Good I hope.
Alright then, I started writing this Fanfic about a year or two ago.  And
so far I haven't really put it to much use.
So go ahead and read it.  If you like it, then I shall continue it.  If
not, I shall burn it to a crisp.
Enjoy!
Bye Bye!

Prologue One: The Past, A Thousand Years Ago...

	Deep within the reaches of our known solar system, located near the planet
Pluto, something glowed.
	The object was small and spherical in shape and emitted a warm golden light.
	The globe suddenly began to shake violently, it's glow becoming brighter
and near blinding.  It's radiance reached all the way down to Pluto's
surface.  The blaze displayed a once beautiful civilization now in the
midst's of decay and ruin.
	The orb then shot off like a shooting star.  Passing the other planets,
it's brilliant shine touching their surface's to briefly reveal more great
kingdoms, left shattered and desolate.  
	The globe's speed was amazing.  Although near the planet Earth it's
acceleration slowed down.  It then merely drifted forward, in a calm steady
course.  
	In between the Earth and it's Moon, a large number of orbs were gathered.
The glowing sphere moved towards them and clinked against them, it bounced
back and floated in front of the cluster.   
	The globe's harsh glowing light died down, leaving a golden aura around
it.  Inside the globe was a lovely, young lady.  
	She was dressed in a strange black sailor-like fuku, with gloves that
stretched up to her elbows, a small plain choker, a small golden tiara and
tall pointed boots.  She had strangely done hair, that looked orange
because of the glowing aura of the sphere.  
	The girl suddenly began to flinch.  Her wide eyes flashed open, the light
made it impossible to tell her true eye colour.   
	The girl began to panic as she quickly discovered that she was trapped.
She pounded her gloved hands against the curved insides of her prison.  
	Soon she realized that she wasn't making any difference and focused her
attention on a certain cluster of globes.  They seemed separated from the
rest.  There were ten of them in the group.  The globes all contained
sleeping people within them and each globe gave off a golden aura.  
	In eight of the globes were young ladies.  They, like the awakened girl,
were dressed in a strange sailor-like fuku.  They each had different
coloured bows and choker, a main colour for their skirts and collars; both
attached to a white body suit, and white gloves, as well as different boots
and earrings.  Each of them had a small golden tiara with a single jewel
embedded in the centre.  Although the ladies fuku's differed slightly in
other ways too.
	At the front of the eight women, were two more globes.  In one of them
there was an astoundingly beautiful young lady.  She was dressed in a
flowing white gown.  Her golden hair was tied up into two buns upon the top
of her head, two �tails cascaded out of them.  She had a soft warm face.
Her most striking feature was her small gold crescent moon that appeared on
her forehead.
	Beside her, in a separate globe, was a man.  He was dressed in a
magnificent suit of armor, equipt with cape and sword.  He was a handsome
man with dark black hair and strong, yet caring face.
	The awake girl pressed her hands against the curved walls of the globe.
She looked sadly down.  When she raised her face again, she had a look of
determination.  She brought back one of her hands and balled it up into a
fist.  
	Shards of orange/yellow glass like pieces floated around her fist.  A
gaping hole now marred the perfect sphere.  Cracks from around the hole
spread quickly along the rest of the sphere.  She pulled in her fist.  Then
she suddenly thrust both arms up, and let her legs go straight out from
under her.  The globe burst into hundreds upon thousands of pieces.
	The girl floated gracefully through the fragments and over to the globe
containing the girl in the white dress.
	The girl in the fuku closed her eyes and raised her hand above her.  When
she brought it down, a brilliant white light shone out from her closed
fist.  She reopened her eyes and opened her hand to reveal a beautiful
crystal. "Ginzinshou..." she whispered softly.  
She outstretched her hand to the girl in the globe.  "In this tiny sphere
lies the power of creation and life, but it also carries the power of
destruction and death.  All of this power has now been given to you,
princess.  I know that you shall use it wisely."
	She looked at the crystal carefully, then, closing her eyes she held the
crystal to her chest.  The crystal glowed brighter than ever, then subsided
to it's usual soft glow.  
"The power of Destruction and Death..." she muttered softly and reopened
her eyes.  She then held the crystal up to the globe, she touched the globe
with the crystal.  The crystal flashed and disappeared.  The princess began
to move, but then remained still.  
"Now you are one in the same.  Sleep well princess."
	She drifted away from the globes.  "No one must remember the time of the
Silver Millennium, or any of the other great God Kingdoms.  This millennium
is no more."
	She then lied down in mid-air.   Her body began to glow with a white
light.  She closed her eyes once more.  Her chest heaved up ward.  Her
glowing ceased and a small crystal, much like the one she called
Ginzinshou, flew out of her chest.  It hovered above her.  Her eyes flashed
open, but there was no colour, no pupils in them.  They were lifeless, dead
eyes.  
	She then screamed.  The crystal emitted a bright ring of light that spread
out around her.  The ring passed over the globes causing them to clink and
rattle.  The ring went out across the planets, as it did the kingdoms and
signs of civilizations vanished, and their surfaces and air changed.  On
the planet Earth, great floods washed over the lands, the screams of the
people could be heard for miles around even though the wails and crashes of
the churning water.  People and families were separated over great expanses. 
	Her eyes closed once more.  "My time in this wretched life is not yet
over.  Soon I shall rise again, and then..." she never finished, for the
crystal had suddenly burst into a multitude of tiny fragments.  
And she lay still, the golden fragments drew close to her body and created
a jagged casing around her.

Prologue Two: The-Not-So-Distant Past, A few days after the battle with
SailorGalaxia

	A young woman with long reddish brown hair, walked into a dark apartment.
She kicked off her shoes and walked towards a computer, sitting on top of a
large desk.
	Not bothering to turn on a light, she reached into one of the desk's
drawers and pulled out two strange looking objects.  The articles were dark
green in colour, and looked much like two orbs set in blocks of smooth marble.
	The woman placed the objects one on either side of the keyboard.  She
closed her eyes and placed her hands on to the orbs.  The orbs suddenly
glowed a bright green light that filled the room, casting haunting shadows
all around her.  
	The computer screen flickered green and turned on.  On the screen appeared
a blurred and very distorted figure sitting alone in a room.
	The woman reopened her eyes, they flashed a bright green briefly.  She
smiled, "Bad connection tonight, eh?" she said softly.
	"Yet again." sighed a feminine voice, through the static. "So what is it
this time?  Do you have anything to report?"
	"Well no, not really..." the woman muttered, then picked up her tone as
she spoke next,  "Wait, yes I do have something.  But first I want some info."
	"Awwe geez.  You know I can't give anything out to you unless you give me
your codes.  Can't you just give me your report?" the figure pleaded.
	"Come on!  You know how much I hate that, can't you just skip it?" the
woman asked.
	"No!" shouted the figure.
	"Just this once?" said the woman.
	"NO!" was the bellowed reply that was heard perfectly through the static.
The figure from behind the disturbance seemed to radiate with a yellow aura. 
	"Fine!" the woman shouted back, and began to pout, but she did not remove
her hands from the orbs.
	"Alright, alright.  But as soon as I help you, you must give me your codes
and anything that you need to report.  Although you have been of most use
to us already." the figure said.
	"Great!  All I need to know is how long will it take you to get here."
said the woman cheerfully.  Her cheeriness faltered when she heard nothing
but static come through the line.  "Hello?  Are you still there?" 
	"Umm, yeah st-still here." spoke the figure nervously.
	"What is it?" asked the woman her voice cold and toneless.
	"Well you see, there have been a few complications in reaching our
destination and-and well you see..." the figure paused again.
	"I see..." said the woman, putting on a look of displease.
	"Six months!" the figure blurted out. "Six months.  At the latest."
	The woman almost lost her grip on the orbs and losing the connection. Her
face turned deathly pale, it almost had a green tinge to it.  "Si-si-six
m-months?" she stuttered.  "I have to be stuck on this stupid planet for
another six months!" she screamed, her voice rising with each and every
syllable. 
	"Yes I'm sorry.  Now to the matter of the codes..." said the figure calmly.
	"Six months?!  I'm here for another stupid..." she began screaming again
until she was interrupted.
"Six months!  Yes I know!  We can't go any faster without being detected,
you know that!" shouted the figure, the yellow aura glowing around her
again, "Now the codes!" she shouted, the aura around her began to get
brighter and become erratic.
	"Eeeh.  Okay I'm sorry." the woman apologized.  Suddenly her head shot up
and her back went perfectly straight, then in a toneless voice she stated, 
"Name: Three... Code: Power Green... Alias: Saori..."

For those of you who may or may not know, this is the in fact the same
Saori that appeared in episode 132 of the Super S series.

***
	Far across town, away from the dark apartment.  Was another young woman.
Although she was a few years younger.  
	She looked to be about the age of seventeen.  She was calmly lying upon a
grassy knoll, out in the middle of nowhere-in-particular.
	She was staring high up into the night sky.  Her thick long hair was
spread out like a huge fan around the top of her head, it's length covered
most of the grass.  Alone again, like every night.  The reason being
because she was not a very popular girl at school, she was said to be a
strange one, labeled as being weird.  No one liked to be around her, and
yet it never seemed to bother her.  True she was a very sad and lonely
girl, but it was as if she held a secret hidden within her sadness.
	Her hands were tucked and folded neatly at the back of her head and her
ankles were crossed neatly.  A broad smile stretched across her face, which
was not often in her case.  
	She didn't know the names of the stars she was watching, or many of the
constellations.  She just liked to watch the skies at night, especially to
just look up at the moon.
	But upon this night, she would witness something that would change her
life forever.  While simply looking up and smiling widely, four shooting
stars streaked across the night sky.  She sat up in amazement and awe, she
had seen plenty of shooting stars before, but these ones were different.  
	The colour in her already pale face drained and her smile was replaced
with shock and confusion.  The stars were in perfect alignment,
side-by-side.  Their glittering trails seemed to last forever.  They were
beautifully bright, and seemed to put the other stars at shame.
	A deep rumbling began from within her as she watched.  Her heart pounded
wild and free within her chest.  Her breath came out harsh and loud.  A
sharp pain struck her in the middle of her chest.  Clasping a hand on the
pain, she suddenly smiled again.  Strangely, struggled laughs came from her.
	It felt like her soul was clawing at her from the inside.  Tiny sparkling
tears appeared in the corners of her eyes.  She picked up a small object
from beside her and got up.  She ran faster than she had ever run before, a
renewed sense of adrenalin flowing through her very being.
	A few meager tears flowed from her eyes and into the wind.  She smiled
even though she was in immense pain.  
	Tonight the dreams and nightmares would begin once more.
