Set 1,000 years before the tales of Space Pirate Captain Harlock and Galaxy Express 999, there is a planet that drifts through space known as Lar Metal, home to an advanced civilization. Every 1,000 years, Lar Metal passes close to Earth, bringing chaos and disaster to the planet. During this time, one of Lar Metal comes to Earth see her homeworld through this passing and to await the time when it will come again. She is the Millennial Queen. The time for Lar Metal\'s next passing draws near, and the signs are not good. Lar Metal is to pass closest to Earth on September 9, 1999, at 9:09:09 (a reference to GE999) and bring about near-apocalyptic destruction. Time is running out as Professor Amamori struggles to see what can be done to save humanity. Meanwhile, his assistant, Yayoi, begins a course of her own, one which only she knows. Together with Professor Aramari\'s nephew, Hajime, she also hopes to save Earth...for though she is the Millennial Queen, she is no longer able to stand idly by and watch her homeworld bring unnecessary destruction.
