Bishoujo Senshi Sailormoon W Episode One!: A new enemy, Usagi is the
new Light of Hope!

A crate fell from the heavens, crashing on the blistering sands of the
Sahara.

A woman with long black hair covered her eyes from the sun, looking
down to the broken crate of ancient artifacts which even now were
being reburied by the sands that slowly float in the winds.

"Damn it, be careful with that! We can learn so much from them, not
even concerning the priceless monetary value of one of those items
alone!" The woman screamed in the local's tongue, though, she was not
form Egypt.

She, in fact was from Tokyo, now here for a ground breaking expedition
in the sands of the great dessert.

"No, over that there!" The woman shouted to the men below.

Her name is Faindano Hoko, the leader of this artificially exhibition.
She was wearing a skimpy brown outfit as her hair blew through the
sands of Egypt.

She heard another loud bang, turning a swearing under her breath. She
had lost over five men in the past month, how many was it in this bang
alone? "Incompetent fools!" She screamed, though it went un heard.

"WE FOUND IT!" Shouts came form the noise.

The woman raced through the crowd, parting it and making her way to
where the noise echoed.

There a man stood, a bit taller then she was looking down into a
buried temple. "It is there Miss Hoko, it is there! We have found it!"
He said, his voice echoing with the hole below.

A gleam was the only reply from the woman, her eyes transfixed on the
darkened temple below. "By Ra...the temple we have been looking for.
The temple...that holds the remnants of the Warriors!"

"OUCH!" The blond hair girl screamed, toppling over on her heels and
falling flat on her face. The ground was cold that day and leaves
rustled by her head.

Standing she brushed off her fuku and wiped away the solitary tear
which fell from her eye. Her name, Tsukino Usagi. She wore her usual
Juubam High-school fuku uniform and her long blonde hair fashioned in
two odangos and pony tails.

The wind blew past her, causing her hair to fly in the wind and her
book to fly out of her hand.

"Oh no! Rei-chan will KILL me if I loose another manga of hers!" She
quickly assembled herself and ran down the street, following the
flying manga in the wind.

As quickly as she took off she fell back to the ground, this time
something hit her though and hit her hard. But, that something was on
the ground with her too.

Rubbing her head she tried to stand her ground again but this blow was
too much for the girl to stand.

"Are you ok miss? I am terribly sorry for running into you like that!"
A mans voice came from above, a hand to match offered to her.

Taking it the man hoisted her to her feet and took her in his arm.
"Are you ok?" He asked again.

Looking up Usagi saw a man with short, wild blond hair and piercing
dark blue eyes. He wore a black shirt and tight blue jeans. A strange
necklace was around his neck, donning the symbol for the heavens.

"I...I am fine...why did you run into me like that!? I just lost my
friends manga, she is going to kill me!" Usagi shouted at the man,
pushing him back and wavering to keep her balance.

The man smiled, "The manga my friend Musei is holding right now?"

She looked past the man to see another who was holding the manga. This
one wore a white shirt and a black jacket. The same blue jeans and the
symbol for embrace donned around his neck. He, though had long flat
green hair.

"Yes, can I have it!?" Usagi demanded.

The blond haired man smiled. "Not until we get your name."

A sweat drop fell down her forehead. "It is Tsukino Usagi! Now please,
give me the manga!" She tried taking it from the man named Musei, but
all he did was dodge her every attempt.

"Well Usagi-chan, I am Tenou Dansei. It is truly nice to meet you.
Musei, give her the manga!"

The man nodded and gave it to her. "Finally!" She turned and returned
to her jog, then realizing what the man said his name was. "Hey are
you related to Haruka Tenou? You kind of look like her..." She
stopped, turning to see both men were gone.

The Cherry Hill Shinto Temple was beautiful this time of year. The
sakura fell from the trees like a blanket of pink snow, covering the
entire temples grounds.

The sacred fire danced wildly in the cold wind, event he sacred mirror
reflected the rays of the sun giving off beautiful reflections in its
glory.

Though the priestess did not like it. It only meant more chores for
her to do...more to clean up and more wood burning into the fire.

Her name, Hino Rei, Shinto priestess of the shrine.

She stood out front of the temple, sweeping the blossoms into a large
pile near the long flight of stairs.

Wearing her normal red and white outfit she wiped away the sweat from
her forehead, leaning on the broom she held.

She looked up to the beautiful fall morning, the clouds gently
floating int he blue sky. "Finally...done!" She announced to herself.

She turned back to the temple as a gust of wind flew by her, blowing
the pile off of its hinges and causing the blooms to fly back to where
they laid once before.

"GYAHHHHHH!" She screamed, throwing the broom to the ground and
stammering off into the temple.

Before she reached the doors a voice echoed form behind her. "What's
the matter Rei-chan, having a little trouble with the wind today?" She
turned to see the three of them there.

The one on the right had short blue hair which matched her eyes. she,
like the others wore a Juuban High-school uniform and wore glasses.

The one on the right was a bit taller then the other two. She had
brown hair tied in a pony tail, also donning rose earrings. Her green
eyes matched the leaves on the trees which were now turning different
colors.

The one in the middle, the final one had long blonde hair and orange
colored eyes. She was the one who cheerily spoke earlier that day.

Rei nodded to the three of them, "Ami-chan, Mako-chan, Minako-chan."
She smiled.

Mizuno Ami, Kino Makato and Aino Minako. All three best friends with
the Shinto priestess before them.

"Did Usagi-chan come here yet?" The blue haired one asked, finally
taking her head out of the book she was holding.

Rei shook her head in contempt, "She is probably off buying a new
manga because she lost mine!" She hissed.

Picking up the broom Makato smiled. "How about we help you clean these
up while we wait for her?"

Rei nodded, "Thanks...I have been trying for hours but the wind keeps
on blowing them apart." She went inside and emerged with three other
brooms, handing them to the others.

They all scurried, sweeping the multiple colors of pinks and reds up
into a pile of blossoms, now located towards the back of the temple.

"Rei-chan, maybe we should put these in the fire. It would get rid of
them and we would not have to find a place to store them from the
wind." Ami explained.

Thinking for a minute Rei nodded. "Sure Ami-chan...can you guys help
me bring these inside?"

The place was dark, pure black. Unseen form the outside world and
nothing seen on the inside world.

All that was in this place was a large gray crystal and a purple
chair. The crystal was more tall then fat, it was carved n many places
allowing many places for light to reflect off in many directions.

The chair was big enough for one to sit on. It had intricate glyphs
all over in and gave off its own eerie purple glow.

A figure emerged from the darkness, taking the seat. It was a man
covered in both light and dark blue robes. Silver gauntlets covered
his wrists and ankles to his bare hands and feet. His face, almost
fully covered by the robes only showing his piercing eyes.

Turning he sat upon the throne looking deep within the crystal before
him. Visions of Sailormoon fighting with a Youma flashed across one of
the surfaces. Another image of Sailormoon appeared on another surface,
this one had her de-henshining into Tsukino Usagi and scampering off
to the other Senshi.

The man laughed, standing up and the images leaving. "Pathetic!" His
voice echoed through the blackness that surrounded him.

"You think they would try to hide their true forms better..." He
turned and sat back onto the throne.

An image of Metallia being destroyed by the crystal came forth. Than,
a picture of the Death Phantoms eradication appeared before him.

"All of them failed!" A final picture appeared of Chaos being sealed
within the hearts of humanity. "Even the great Chaos!"

The man stood and the images faded away. "Numero 1!" He shouted.

Suddenly out of the crystal a cloaked form appeared. Its body was
totally submerged within the darkness of the cloak, only its dark red
eyes protruded from its form.

"Numero 1, go down and fight the Senshi. Do not kill them, I want to
know their weaknesses and strengths. Attack..." The man remembered the
vision of Tsukino Usagi running into the blond haired man. "Attack
that man Sailormoon ran into today. If you can, bring me the
Ginzuishou. Now, GO!"

With the command the creature simply bowed and faded from sight.

"I'm...finally...here!" Usagi exclaimed trying to muster the strength
to make it up the final step to the temple.

The others sighed, sweat drops falling down their heads. All four
girls sat in front of the temple sipping their green tea and talking
about the new peace they have gained from finally ending the Sailor
Wars, the war that brought forth all of their pain and turmoil.

"Sorry I am late..." She said, stumbling to where the others were.
Taking a seat next to Minako she threw the manga to Rei's lap.
"Thanks...Rei-chan..."

"Usagi-chan are you ok? You look a little pale." Ami exclaimed with
her concern.

"I'm fine Ami-chan...just tired. I ran into this guy and..." She was
quickly interrupted mid sentence.

"A guy!? Was he cute Usagi-chan!?" Minako asked with excitement.

"No!" Usagi said with an angered face. "He ran into me when I was
trying to get Rei-chan's manga..." Another expression came across her
face, dumbfounded-ness.

"My manga!? I knew you lost it and bought a new one!" Rei yelled.

"I didn't Rei-chan! The other guy had it in his hands..."

Makato interrupted her this time. "Another one! Great, who were they
Usagi-chan, friends from school?"

"No Mako-chan...these guys were different. One of them was named
Musei...and the other was Tenou Sansei..."

"TENOU!?" Ami questioned.

Usagi shook her head. "Hai, when I realized what he said they were
both gone. Very weird, they had these symbols that looked like
Haruka-san and Michiru-san's Solider symbols...but that cant be
right!" She said with a smile.

Rei sighed, "It could just be a coincidence." She stood and brushed
the leaves from her priestess dress. "I have a new...batch of helpers
today."

"Batch Rei-chan?" Makato asked.

Rei shook her head, "Hai, two of them coming from Hong Kong. Both are
training to be priests, both guys too." She giggled.

"Do you think..." Ami stopped for a moment. "Do you think that they
could..."

Before she finished there was a noise, someone coming up the steps.

"Hello, I am Dansei...this is Musei, we are here for the training."
The blond haired man exclaimed.

All girls turned and became wide eyed. They were, perfect in their
eyes. In all their eyes, with the exception of Usagi.

"You two!" She shouted.

The man smiled, "Tsukino-chan, I did not know you knew the priestess
of this temple. If I did, I would have asked you to show us the way
because we got lost on the way here. I am still very sorry for running
into you at the park.

Usagi sighed, turning to Rei with a smile. "Have fun with these two,
they don't watch where they are going!"

A sweat mark went down Rei's head, quickly moving her hand and
slapping Usagi hard. Causing Usagi to fall back and tears gush out of
her like water coming out of a hose.

"Shut up baka head! Hello...I am not sure that I know your full
names." She said politely.

"Oh, I am sorry. My name is Tenou Dansei."

The other man came forward and moved a strand of aquatic green hair
form his face. "And I am Kaiou Musei!"

All for girls starred wide eyed as Usagi was crying.

"Kaiou...Tenou...are you two related to..." Ami stopped as Dansei
raised his hand.

"No, we are not related to the great Haruka Tenou and Michiru Kaiou.
It is just mere coincidence." The man laughed. "Well, Musei here
changed his name and died his hair because he actually likes Michiru a
lot."

The girls sweat dropped again. "Wait until he find out she..." Makato
hit Minako, stopping her mid sentence.

Usagi finally stopped crying and composed herself. "Well..." She
sniffed. "Are you two actually temple priests?"

Both nodded, "Always have been and always will." Musei added.

The girls sighed, this would be a problem. They never had to put up
with guys like this...well, they did with the Starlights but
that...that was different, wasn't it?

Rei stood and smiled, "Well then...let me show you to your rooms..."

The night came, darkness enfolded the city.

Only the lights from the city itself made it so the entire island of
Japan was not submerged in its darkened sky above. The great Crown
Game Arcade was open and alive with commotion.

In the corner playing the new Sailor V game sat Usagi, trying to beat
a gruesome monster on the screen. Minako stood above watching her play
and cheering her on.

"You know Usagi-chan, I beat that monster in real life!"

Suddenly she paused and it was game over. A vision of Minako being
swallowed by the creature flew through her head. "Minako-chan that's
so scary! Don't tell me things like that!"

Minako giggled, "Its ok Usagi-chan, I was only kidding!"

A sweat drop fell down the girl's head. "Your so sly Minako-chan!"

"HE GOT IT!" Screamed a girl. Almost everyone at the arcade was
standing around the claw machines where the Sailor Solider dolls were
in.

Both Usagi and Minako looked to one another before joining the crowd.

Someone was at the controls with aquatic hair. "Michiru-san!?" Ask
Usagi.

It wasn't, it was Musei, he was the one winning the prizes and handing
them to the girls near him.

"He sure us good!" Someone said form behind.

Minako and Usagi turned and smiled. "Motoki-san!" Minako exclaimed.

It was Furuhata Motoki, the one who worked at the arcade, a friend of
Usagi's boyfriend.

"Hi Minako-chan, Usagi-chan. Wow this guy IS good!" Motoki exclaimed.

Both girls nodded and turned to see Musei in front of them.

"Aino-san, Tsukino-san." He smiled and nodded, giving Minako a
Sailorvenus doll and Usagi and Sailormoon doll. He smiled again and
turned to walk out.

"Wait Musei-san!" Minako announced. She ran forward and walked with
him, "how did you get so good at that?"

Musei smiled, moving his hair form his eye. "Well Aino-san, I have
always been able to do that game. I guess it is just a gift I have."

Minako smiled, "Please call me Minako, do not be so formal!"

Usagi sighed, "I am going to go with them Matoki-san, see you later!"

Matoki smiled and waved, "Say hello to Mamoru-san for me!"

"Ok!" Usagi replied as the doors shut behind her.

"Ok, Minako-chan." Minako blushed to what he said, turning her face to
cover up her rosy red cheeks.

The sky was dark now from the night. Stores were beginning to close
and the wind would soon pick up. Tomorrow would be a school night,
this was their last night before school would have to interfere with
their lives.

Usagi finally caught up, panting for air.

"Wow you ARE good Musei-san!" She inhaled smiling.

The man nodded to her, "Thank you Tsukino-san!"

"White moon trash!" A voice echoed from behind. Both Usagi and
Minako's eyes widened hearing this and knowing what the woman was
talking about.

Both turned to see a woman with chalky white skin. Her long gray hair
almost touched the ground, her dark red eyes almost pierced the soul.
Her cloak, black then midnight dangled in the wind. "White moon
trash!" She repeated.

Musei stood in front of them with his arms out, trying to protect the
both of them. "Leave them alone! Whatever you are leave!"

Both Minako and Usagi took out their transformation items and held
them close to their bodies. "Musei-chan we should run!" Minako
announced.

Musei did not hear her, he only starred at the Youma with contempt.

"Suit yourself..." The Youma brought her hand up and with a flash
blasted Musei unconscious to the ground.

"Musei-san!" Usagi screamed. She turned her head and glared at the
monster. "I wont let you hurt him or anyone!"

Minako nodded, "We will punish you for this!"

"Venus crystal power...MAK EUP!" Strands of light came forth and
enclosed around Minako's body, a warm aura of stars and light exploded
to reveal Minako in her Sailorvenus garb.

"Moon Eternal...MAKE UP!" A furious ball of light erupted sending
feathers of angels across the sky. The light left, Usagi was replaced
by the pretty suited Solider of love and Justice, Eternal Sailormoon.

"Venus..." Venus held out her hand, her symbol appeared wrapped within
a wreath of golden leaves. "Love and Beauty Shock!" Bringing up her
hand and launching forth the blast of golden light she threw her
attack at the attacker.

"Pathetic like he said!" The woman held up her hand and the blast
straggled, deflecting off and hitting a window, smashing it to pieces
of glass flying in the wind. "Is that your best?"

Sailormoon brought up her hand. "No it is not! SILVER MOON CRYSTAL
POWER KI..." She stopped. A vision of Galaxia destroying the Eternal
Power Tier flew across her mind.

"Oh no...I don't have my scepter any longer!" Sailormoon announced.

Venus turned and gasped, "Then what can we do!?" A blast slammed her
back into the building wall.

"You can die!" The Youma screamed, launching forward for another
attack.

Rei's eyes fluttered, stopping her chant before the sacred fire and
standing. "I feel a darkness..." She turned but saw nothing.

Suddenly her communicator rang, quickly bringing up her wrist a vision
of Luna appeared on the small round screen.

"Rei-chan quickly get to the Crown Game center, a Youma is attacking!"
Rei nodded, turning and running out the door.

The Youma held Sailormoon by the throat, pinned against the wall of
the near by building. "Any last words white moon bitch?"

"Yeah, Jupiter Oak...EVOLUTION!" The words came form behind, quickly
the Youma jumped, dropping Sailormoon to the ground.

High above the Youma saw both Sailormercury and Sailorjupiter looking
up at her. "How quaint..." The Youma brought her hand up to fire.

"MARS FLAME SNIPER!" The fiery arrow hit the Youma, harming her very
little.

She looked back to see Sailormars helping Venus and Sailormoon to
their feet.

"Well all of you are here...how good." She raised her hands and the
wind picked up. "time for your deaths..." Bolts of black lightning
came down and struck all the Soliders, sending each back into the wall
closest to them.

"Now to finish the job with another attack!" The wind picked up,
bringing a rose flying straight into the Youma's face.

turning and holding the wound, a trickle of black blood fell to the
ground.

"Striking when your foes are down, how un kind of you!" The man came
out of the shadows. He wore a black and white tuxedo, top hat and a
red and black cape.

"Tuxedo Kamen!" The Youma announced.

"You have heard of me?" He asked with a smile.

The Youma grinned, "Yes, the master told me you could die unlike the
Soliders!" She rushed forward, hitting him in the gut pretty hard.

"TUXEDO KAMEN-SAMA!" All the Soliders screamed.

"I cant let Mamo-chan or anyone get hurt!" She stood and held out her
hand, a disk of light appeared. "MOON TIARA ACTION!"

Not using this move...in ages, ever since she became the Eternal
Sailormoon she did not know what the come out of this would be.

The disk of light fleeted forward, in time for the Youma to catch it
and throw it aside. "Playing frisbee at a time like this!?" She asked
with a smile.

"No..." She fell to her knees. "Everyone...give em some power to bring
back my Tier!" She shouted, but no one heard her. "No..."

Suddenly a bright light of green covered the Youma and sent her flying
to the ground.

Sailormoon looked up in excitement. "Sailorneptune...?" She looked,
but no one was there.

Turning another light covered her, this one white...

"Sailormoon...mistress of the white moon..." A voice whispered to her.

Opening her eyes she turned her head. Her body was naked and
everywhere around her was light.

"Where am I?" She asked the voice.

"You are inside of the mighty Ginzuishou! You are inside its light!"
The voice echoed.

"In its light?" She asked again.

"Yes Sailormoon..." Suddenly another one of her appeared, this one had
though white hair instead of Usagi's blond. "Usagi-san, please use my
power!"

"Who...who are you? She starred wide eyes at the woman, almost a
perfect mirrored reflection.

"I am the guardian of the Ginzuishou, its true essence. I am your Star
seeds guardian...please, we do not have time to discuss this." The
woman held up her hands. "Join with me, become the guardian of the
Ginzuishou! The new Light of Hope!"

Usagi blinked, not knowing what to d. "To save my friends I will!"

Both joined hands and a blast of light erupted within the Ginzuishou.

"What is she doing!?" The Youma asked. Sailormoon stood in the air in
front of her. Eyes closed and her chest of fire with a white light.

Raising her head the Power Tier appeared in her hand, extending into a
staff. "I will not let anyone hurt my friends and take them away from
me again!"

She held her staff high into the air. a white light cane off of her
fuku, staff and Eternal wings. Below her the vigil of the moon kingdom
appeared on the ground in white light.

"SILVER MOON CRYSTAL POWER...MAKE UP!" The light erupted once again
and encircled her within a protective bubble of light.

Usagi opened her eyes, holding the glowing Ginzuishou above her head.
The other Usagi with white hair came behind her, standing back to back
they twirled within the light.

Strands of pink energy wrapped around their arms, joining them into
one with white gloves and silver bands. The same happened to their
feet, these bands too were silver, connected by a small golden
crescent moon.

Both brought their heads up and with a flash of light they fully
joined. Sailormoon stood there with a three colored fuku. Silver,
white and golf. Her brooch now round with a golden crescent moon on it
surrounded by white wings. Long silver ribbons dangled from her back
and the corners of her Eternal Solider wings were tipped with silver
too.

The light left, revealing the new suited Solider Sailormoon! Raising
her head the light of the moon reflected off her silver moon symbol on
her forehead.

"I will stop you from hurting anyone ever again!" Raising her hand the
Power Tier became enlightened with a white glow.

A burst of light revealed a new staff. This one was long and white, in
parts silver and gold crystal ran along the dies. At the tip a large
golden crescent moon stood surrounded by white wings. On the crescent
moon stood the fully opened Ginzuishou.

Raising it into the air the other Senshi wavered, standing up, infused
with a new energy, a new hope!

Mars raised an osuda before her. "Aku Ryu Tai San...Aku Ryu Tai
San...AKU RYU TAI..." She brought it back and threw it forward. "SAN!"
The scroll caught on fire and struck the Youma, making her immobile.

"VENUS LOVE ME CHAIN!" The chain of golden hearts flew forward and
surrounded the Youma, causing further immobility.

"Sailormoon!" Mercury shouted, now with her visor open and computer in
hand. "Hit her cloak!"

Sailormoon nodded. "I know the words!"

She lifted the staff into the air and the Ginzuishou burned with a
silver light. "Heavenly Moon..." The light gather and became brighter.

Bringing the staff forward she pointed it straight to the Youma before
her. "Executioner!" The light erupted, flying forward at an intense
speed.

The light knocked Venus' chain loose and smashed through the Youma,
tearing her cloak to shreds.

"NYAAAAHHHH!" The Youma screamed, disappearing in a volcanic eruption
of white light.

With a smile Sailormoon raised her new staff into the air and it
washed away with a flurry of lights.

Turning her attention to her friends she smiled. "Let me heal you!"

"Moonlight Passionate Illusion!" Bringing her hands to her chest a
small ray of pink light came form her brooch. Covering all of the
Senhsi and Musei the light entered their bodies, filling with energy
and bringing their spirits back up.

"Oh what happened!?" Quickly the Senshi left, allowing Sailormoon and
Minako to de-henshin and run to the once sleeping man.

"You...saved us Musei-chan!" Minako announced.

"O...saved you? Wow...that girl was strong!" He said with a smile.

Usagi sweat dropped, "But you were stronger!" All three joined each
other in a laugh.

"What was that Ami-chan?" Rei asked hiding in the alley way.

"Yeah, how did Sailormoon change like that?" Makato added.

"I am unsure." She replied. "I will have to study her when we are
alone...well, without Kaiou-san that is."

Turning their attention to the black haired man, now dehenshined and
named Chiba Mamoru he was peering out of the alley way, watching the
three walk off into the night.

"That guy...I wonder if Michiru knows him..."

"Well, they are more resourceful then I expected." The Dark Sky
warrior sat on his small thrown watching the battle underway. He
watched as Usagi and Minako helped the aqua haired man into the Hikawa
shrine, he watched as the man named Mamoru went home, as all the
Soliders went to their homes and fell to sleep.

He sighed, standing and turning away form the crystal. "They were not
there...I wonder where they could be!"

Another man appeared, this one downed in green robes and gold. Though,
this was an actual robed man and did not have pant legs. His face was
covered, again only revealing his eyes. "I watched and intervened. I
was the one who brought the Youma off its feet."

"Why Deep Sea, why would you do that!?" Asked the other in blue.

"Because Dark Sky...because I want to face the full fury of the Sailor
Senhsi, the lord wants it to. Revenge for his child, now come...we
have things to do!"

The man in the green robe turned and was gone.

Shaking his head the other looked back to the crystal. "Don't order me
around Deep Sea! I am the only one who can see into the Sky Crystal!"
And with that he vanished into eternity too...

"...if you have never spent whole afternoons with burning ears and
rumpled hair, forgetting the world around you over a book, forgetting
cold and hunger-- if you have never wept bitter tears because a
wonderful story has come to an end and you must take your leave of the
characters with whom you have shared so many adventures, whom you have
loved and admired, for whom you have hoped and feared, and without
whose company life seems empty and meaningless-- you probably won't
