The Sailor Scouts!

One thousand years before the present, there was an era called the Silver Millenium. It was an era of peace between all planets, filled with joy and celebration, that lasted for one-thousand years. On the moon was the Moon Kingdom and it was ruled by the lovely Queen Serenity.

Queen Serenity had one daughter, named Princess Serena, who was young and gentle. Princess Serena would spend much of her time gazing at the planet Earth from the Moon Palace. She loved the trees and the oceans, things the Moon did not have. Also, she fell in love with a man there. His name was Prince Darien, the prince of Earth.

Then, one day, the evil force Metallia possessed a human on Earth named Beryl. Using the evil Negaforce, she possessed the minds of many gumans and soon took over the planet Earth. With the possessed humans as soldiers and her Negaverse warriors, Jedite, Nephlite, Malachite, and Zoicite, Queen Beryl planned her attack on the Moon Kingdom so she would rule both Earth and Moon.

Prince darien fled to the Moon Kingdom to warn Princess Serena. It seemed to everyone on the Moon Kingdom that Earth was now their enemy and no humans could be trusted. Prince Darien told Princess Serena that their love was forbidden, but he would do his best to protect th Moon, even though he would be fighting his own planet. They shared a last kiss before he went off to help fight.

Beryl and Metallia attacked and everything on the Moon was destroyed. The Sailor Senshi and the Moon's army tried to defend the Moon but all of them died without success. Finally, Beryl casted her eyes on Princess Serenaand atacked her. Prince Darien saved her from the attack. Then, Queen Beryl asked Prince Darien to become her King.

When he refused, Metallia attacked the Prince, sweeping hm into a tornado. Princess Serena screamed and jumped int o the tornado with him. Just as they grasped hands, Metallia blasted them with an energy beam and they died.

Queen Serenity watched as their two bodies drifted upward in the tornado. As she cried, she muttered, "I won't let it end like this," and mounted the Silver Imperim Crystal on her crescent Moon Wand, ready to be used. Luna and Artemis, her faithful advisors, reminded her that if she used the crystal, she would surely die. But her mind was made up. she would sacrifice her life so that her daughter and the rest of her people could live.

Using the power of the crystal, she sealed Queen Beryl and the Negavere. She also sent the Prince, Princess,the Sailor Senshi, and the people of the Moon Kingdom one thousand years into the future to be reborn on Earth. As she laid dying, she told Luna and Artemis that Princess Serena and the others would have no memory of this time and that there was a possibility that the Negaverse could be free again. If that were to happen, Luna And Artemis must seek out the Princess and the Senshi to awaken them.

With her last breath, she whisphered to her people, "On befalf of the moon, you will be free. Maybe we'll meet again, someday," and she died. The Crescent Wand fell from her hand and wisked Luna and Artemis away with the others to the future.

When she saw the dead couple, Queen Serenity thought, "Ifelt this love affair end sadly. A love between the Earth and the Moon could never be. I'll seal it away... that demon... and this Moon... and give you to the future! This time... you'll be born on the same planet and you'll find happiness there." That was the reason she sent them all to Earth. That was the anime version.
