Previously
on Sailor Moon Neo T and Kingdom Come...
All of
a sudden, the look of her body being a horrible, charred and dead mess
disappeared, reverting her back to a live state. She suddenly opened her eyes, took a deep breath and sat up. Coughing as air filled her lungs for the
first time in a month.
Lucy:
The Titans remember me dying, but they don't remember how they got me
back. But I remember. I remember them charging into Heaven itself,
Reuisu giving off a speech to God on how to get me back, but they don't
remember. Why? Because they're not ready to know that they
saw Heaven and God. Eventually, they'll
forget about our last battle with Baal, at least how he died, anyway.
Reuisu:
My computer has instructions to send a homing beacon out into the
Universe. This homing beacon is on a
wave frequency only readable in the brain of a Sailor Soldier. If it is what I suspect it is, we're going
to need more than just the Inner and Outer Soldiers and the Titans. We're going to need a massive, galactic
force of Sailors to stop what is to come.
This call to the Sailors is a summoning for them to come to Earth and
help us fight that which is to come.
"Speak
for yourself, Reuisu. If no one minds,
Tyrael and I would like to get out of here and onto our honeymoon."
Michelle says, helping Tyrael up.

Over
the horizon, the sky turned a bright orange and red color as the sun began to
set. It looked even more beautiful when
it was viewed high above Crystal Tokyo on the hill right next to the city. And watching the romantic site on that hill
was Chris Allot and Miya Aino. They sat
on a park bench, holding each other lightly in one another's arms, Miya's head
on Chris' shoulder.
Miya: I
never want this moment to end.
Chris:
Neither do I.
Miya:
This will be even more romantic if we'd get married.
Chris:
You know the agreement. If we get
married, we'll pay for it ourselves.
Miya: I
know, but her majesty was very generous in offering to pay for our wedding and
our honeymoon.
Chris:
I know, but I want to show the others we can stand on our own. Heck, I feel like we're the ones who haven't
led the most exciting lives of the Titans.
Well, you've probably had more than me.
I mean, Reuisu's had a lot more adventures than us.
Miya:
Michelle was erased from the minds of everyone on Earth.
Chris:
Lucy died and came back to life somehow.
Miya: I
single-handedly defeated Mephisto.
Chris:
Christine just finds the concept of BEING a Sailor exciting.
Miya:
And Anna is a seven year-old child, and everything in life is an adventure to
her.
Chris:
Yep, it seems like I'm the one who doesn't really have any point in being with
the Titans. I mean, everyone else has
had something exciting happen to them, and I just stayed around for the ride.
Miya:
To be fair, not everything that happened to us was pleasant.
Chris:
I know, but-
Suddenly,
Chris and Miya's communicator activated, indicating a call. They sighed; their romantic evening ruined,
and activated the signal. It was Sailor
Crystal.
Crystal:
Hey guys, we've got a youma draining life energy at West Side Park! I could use some backup over here!
Chris:
This is Chris and Miya, we're not too far from West Side Park, we're on our
way!
The two
deactivated their communicators and began running down the hill to get to the
Park.
Crystal:
CRYSTAL CRUSHER BEAM!!!
Sailor
Crystal clapped her hands together, and slowly brought them apart as she leapt
through the air. Energy formed into a
ball between her hands, and launched out at the youma. The youma was humanoid, except for it's
extremely long hands and legs, and was colored purple. It had three eyes and no nose or mouth or
hair for that matter. It deflected the
energy ball with its long arms and leapt up at Crystal, intent on restraining
or killing her. However, a ball of
flaming rock slammed into it, bringing it down into the ground. Sailor Crystal turned her head to see
Sailors Asteroid and Love running down the nearby hill and approaching,
Asteroid holding his hand up from the Asteroid Shot attack he had fired.
Asteroid:
I'll have you know that our romantic evening was just interrupted!
Crystal:
Sorry, I don't decide when youmas appear!
Love:
Forget it! Let's just take care of this
guy! CRESCENT HEART CRUSH!!!
Five
large pink hearts appear out of nowhere and go down towards the youma, who
jumps away from them as the hearts slam into each other, vaporizing on contact.
Asteroid:
Where are the others?
Crystal:
On their way. They were on the other
side of town, welcoming Michelle back from her honeymoon with Tyrael. I was on my way back when I ran into this
creep.
Love:
Then let's squash him and let me get back to my love life!
Sailor
Love ran from the other two Titans before they could stop her, and she jumped
into the air and down at the youma, preparing to kick it. The youma launched out one of its arms at
Love, wrapping around her completely.
She was stopped mid-air, but the youma did not stop there. It sent the arm out against a nearby tree,
sending Love straight through it and then dropping it headfirst onto the
pavement. She did not move after that.
Asteroid:
MIYA!!!
Crystal:
CRYSTAL CRUSHER BEAM!!!
Sailor
Crystal repeated her attack, this time it hitting dead onto the youma. It roared in fury, as it's entire body
became encased within a crystal substance.
Asteroid finished the job.
Asteroid:
ASTEROID SHOT!!!
Sailor
Asteroid aimed his index finger at the youma, and a flaming asteroid shot out
of it and hit the demon, exploding it into nothing but evaporating shards. Asteroid ran over to the unconscious Sailor
Love, holding her up slightly. He
pulled out his communicator and typed 9-1-1.
Chris held
his head in his arms as he looked down at the ground of Crystal Tokyo General
Hospital. The other Titans stood
nearby, awaiting news about Miya's condition.
Michelle:
So I come back from a honeymoon into another problem. This is just great.
Reuisu:
I've already spoken with some of the Doctors; they believe she'll survive.
Chris:
Believing is one thing. Actual facts
are a different matter.
Lucy:
There's nothing you or Christine could have done to stop her. All we can do now is hope for the best.
Christine:
Where's Anna?
Reuisu:
She's in the middle of class at Crystal Tower.
Even for this, it seemed inappropriate to drag her out of her education.
Michelle:
She's going to be worried. What about
Astra? Where's she?
Reuisu:
She left two days ago to visit Rita and Andrew in Africa. She won't be back for several days.
The
door to the emergency room opened, and Ami walked out, rubbing the top of her
nose where the glasses usually rested on, her eyes looked tired and a bit worn
out.
Ami:
We've managed to stabilize her condition and repaired the damage to the skull
and the severe concussion she had.
However, during the course of it, she slipped into a coma.
Chris
got up, breathing harder.
Chris:
But she's alive, right? She'll be okay?
Ami:
She's alive, yes.
The
Titans all let out a sigh of relief.
Ami: As
to whether or not she'll be okay is a different issue. She'll remain alive in the coma, yes, but
there's no way to determine when or if she'll come out of it. To be honest, the Doctors say the chances are
slim to none that she'll come out of it.
They say the most humane thing to do would be to pull the plug on her
life support.
All the
Titans glared at Ami.
Chris:
You can tell those Doctors to take that lack of faith in Miya's spirit and
shove it up their asses.
Reuisu:
Miya is one of us, a part of this family.
Lucy:
We're not just going to let them dictate what's humane and what's not!
Ami
smiled.
Ami: I
was hoping you'd say that. You can't see
her just yet, but I'll give you a call when visiting hours will be available.
Christine:
Thanks Ami, you're the best.
Ami
smiled and walked away from the Titans.
Reuisu:
Once Anna's classes have ended for the day, tell her we need her help. We're going back to that park tonight.
Lucy:
Why?
Reuisu:
The kind of youma that wants to steal life energy only works for someone
else. This could signify a new enemy
threat to Crystal Tokyo. We might find
some clues as to what this youma was working for.
Sailor
Angel flew once more around the park.
He shouted down to the Titans.
Angel:
Nothing from the aerial perspective.
Any luck down there?
Cephiros:
Nadda, zilch, zip. I think we might be
going on a wild goose chase, Angel.
Angel
sighed.
Angel:
Alright, I'll come on down and we'll call it-... Hey, wait a minute! On a
nearby rooftop, someone's watching us!
Sailor
Asteroid put the infrared goggles he was wearing on again and aimed them at the
rooftop Angel was pointing it.
Asteroid:
There's definitely someone there!
Judging by the general outline from the heat sensors, it's female. I think she's wearing a Sailor fuku!
Angel:
Wait a minute, she's-
And
that was all Sailor Angel got off before the woman standing on the rooftop shot
out a purple energy beam at him from her hands, damaging his wings and sending
him crashing into the ground. The woman
jumped high off the rooftop like there was little or no gravity on earth and
landed gracefully in front of the assembled Titans. She had long blue hair going down to her knees, and her sailor
fuku's colors were primarily silver.
Her eyes were a cold green, her fuku shaped similarly to that of one
from earth. However, her elf-like ears
and the slight scales on her arms proved for her not to be human.
Angel:
I beg your pardon miss, but it's customary to introduce yourself before you
start shooting at people!
The
woman grinned and stood up, eyeing the Titans.
Life:
Who are you, lady?
The
woman was taken aback by the eight year-old Sailor, but regained her senses
quickly enough.
Woman:
Six Sailor Soldiers all gathered in one place.
Added onto that are the nine primary Senshi of this planet and solar
system, then there are their children, and then the other five soldiers located
in the other continent. I was right to
come here; this planet is ripe with Sailor Soldiers!
Crystal:
Excuse me, mam, but we're not Soldiers, we're The Titans.
Woman:
Titans, Soldiers, Senshi, Warriors, it doesn't matter to me! All I know is is that this planet has all
the Sailor energy I need.
Moonshine:
Who are you?!
Argent:
My name is Sailor Argent, and the last living being you are ever going to see.
Angel
rolled his eyes.
Angel:
Oh really? We've heard that before,
lady. Albeit, not from another Sailor,
which surprises me a bit. Why do you
want to kill us?
Argent:
Not kill you, exactly. Just drain every
bit of life force out of you to perpetuate my own life. You see, have you ever heard of a Sailor
known as Galaxia?
Angel:
We've butted heads a few times, sometimes worked together.
Argent:
Ah, yes, this was the planet that defeated Chaos, wasn't it? Well, after Chaos was destroyed and all the
star seeds returned home, well... You
see, my Kingdom was utterly destroyed by Galaxia. I had nothing left to return to.
While every other Sailor in the Universe was happy and prosperous, I was
unhappy and degenerating quickly! All
the other Sailors had family and friends.
Mine are all dead. I've been going
from star system to star system, draining the life out of those imps to keep my
own life alive. After I saw thousands
if not millions of Sailors leaving this world about a week or two ago, I knew
this world was special. I sent a youma
to collect some energy samples, but it seems you've taken care of it already.
Asteroid's
eyes narrowed at her.
Asteroid:
It was you! You're the one responsible
for what happened to Miya! ASTEROID
SHOT!!!
Asteroid
aimed quickly at her, launching out three asteroids into Sailor Argent. She grabbed herself in pain as each asteroid
slammed into her, but Asteroid wasn't done there.
Asteroid:
ROCKET BLAST!!!
Sailor
Asteroid glowed for a moment, but then was moving at incredible speeds,
delivering blows and kicks to Sailor Argent in a fit of rage before finally
returning to the other Titans.
Angel:
Stand down, Chris! You'll kill her!
Asteroid
stood down a hair. Argent had bruises
all over herself, and she was slightly bleeding.
Argent:
I did not anticipate such a powerful attack...
We shall meet again, Titans!
Sailor
Argent's hands glowed a bright blue and purple, and enveloped her body as she
disappeared. Asteroid gritted his
teeth.
Asteroid:
I might've managed to wound the one who hurt Miya, but Miya's still in the
coma.
