On Earth the confirmation of it's prince was about to take place in a couple of days; the future prince was going to be the first son of the king Akira.
Akira was walking through the palace and he went into the communications room.
Akira: Hi, how are you doing?
Guard: The same old routine sir.
Akira: I don't know why do you monitor this comm. ports, there is never anything interesting.
Guard 2: Sir, we are receiving a distress signal.
Akira: What?, put it through.
Comm.: ...we are under attack!!
Guard 2: What is your position?
Comm.: We are in position 1365.
Guard 2: Repeat your position please.
Comm.: We are in position 1365...(explosion sounds on comm.)...help!!.....
Guard 2: Guard 75, come in..., Guard 75, come in...We lost all communication sir.
Akira: What's all this about?
Guard: Sir position 1365 was destroyed.
Akira: Do you mean The Seal Palace was destroyed?
Guard: Yes, Pluto's palace is no longer on the radar.
Akira: Do you know where the attack came from?
Guard2: We are receiving another message from Pluto.
Comm.: This is communications port 1364, answer Earth command.
Guard2: Here is..
Akira takes the comm. device.
Akira: Commander Akira here, what is your report?
Comm.: Pluto's palace was destroyed, the king was still inside when the explosion occurred.
Akira: I'll be there ASAP, over.
Guard: But the confirmation is tomorrow sir.
Akira: I'll handle that, prepare the starship.
Guard: Aren't you going to use the light transport sir?
Akira: If the palace was destroyed then the transport is destroyed too.
Guard 2: The starship will be ready in 20 minutes sir.
Akira: Five it is then!.
Guard 2: But sir...
Akira: I know you can do it in two, so don't tease me.
Guard 2(ashamed): Yes sir.
Akira walked to Endymion's room.
Akira: Endymion.
Endymion: Yes Akira?.
Akira: I have to leave immediately, Pluto is under attack.
Endymion: But Akira, your confirmation is tomorrow.
Akira: I know, that's why I need you to take my place.
Endymion: Take your place?
Akira: Yes, you will become the prince in my stead.
Endymion: But...
Akira: Trust me, you'll make a better prince than me.
Akira leaves and goes to the spaceport.
Guard: Everything is ready sir.
Akira: Good, I knew you could do it.
Guard 2: Mistress Hotaru sends her regards and best wishes sir.
Akira: Thank you, let's go.
Akira climbed the stairs to his starship and left.
The next day, a lot of people went to the Alliance Castle to see the confirmation of the prince, The King walked to Endymion's room.
King: Endymion, let us go downstairs.
Endymion: Father, I can't understand why did Akira give me his title.
King: You were always opposite in every sense, he enjoys the battle, he likes the leadership.
Endymion: So he'd rather be outside from the castle training on antique fighting techniques that he may never use.
King: I would not be so sure about that, the distress call from Pluto seemed very serious.
Endymion: I hope it wasn't, Well, let's go then.
King: Then come with me "Prince" Endymion.
Endymion and the king went down the stairs, the ceremony begun and he became the official Prince of Earth.
(Scene change) Akira arrived to Pluto's Seal Palace and went inside.
Akira: Hello, anyone.
He walked to the center of the palace and saw the black crystal.
Akira: What is this, uh?, Someone is trapped in the crystal!!, (he takes out his sword), Earth gravity blast!!!
The crystal breaks and Sailor Pluto falls to the floor.
Akira (running to Pluto): What happened?
Pluto: Evil powers...must stop evil...my destiny...(Pluto disappears)
Akira: Wait, who are you?!!.
Akira left the palace and went to were Pluto's palace was. He found a guard lying on the floor.
Akira: You all right?.
Guard: I was hurt on the...explosion but I will be...fine sir.
Akira: Here, this will help you. (He uses a small herb on the guard, his wounds are healed ). A small gift that Princess Hotaru gave me, it can heal any wound.
Guard: Thank you sir.
Akira: What happened here?.
Guard: A man with light blue hair went inside the palace and disappeared the king, he mentioned something about a Negaverse or something, I ran to the comm. port but when I was speaking to you he blew up the castle, It's a miracle I survived.
Akira: Let's go to Earth, you have to tell this to my father.
Akira and the guard walked to the starship and left.
Akira arrived at the castle where the guard told everything to Earth's king. The king called all the kings from the Silver Millennium to reunite on the Moon, so that they could create a plan against the unknown evil. While Akira and Endymion called all the princes of Earth to meet at the Alliance Castle.
Later that day, when the princes Jed, Max, Kun and Zoe went to the Alliance Castle in Atlantis in order to go to the Moon along with Prince Endymion and Akira they found it abandoned.
Zoe: I wonder why did Endymion called us in such a haste?
Kun: I am sure Endymion will explain us as soon as go inside the palace...but, why is it so lonely?; it is usually very busy. I sense something very strange.
Max: Well, are we going in, or are we going to stay here talking ?
Jed: All right Max, we are coming.
(Jed opened the doors.)
When they got into the palace they realized the reason for the loneliness. Everything was destroyed!.
Max: I guess today is not cleaning day.
Kun: I don't think it is time for jokes Max, it could be a very big problem.
Zoe: Isn't that Endymion?;(she runs at him) Are you all right?
Endymion: I'm fine but, Wh..ere is my father?, Have you seen him?
Jed: What happened?
Endymion: There was a... a big explosion, thankfully Akira took all of the people in the palace to a safe place, after he returned from Pluto; but my father and I were still inside.
Max: Let's go to the throne room and find out if he is there!.
When Max opened the doors they saw a big part of the wall destroyed and a strange voice said:
"My name is Dissaight, the greatest Knight from the Negaverse; I broke the barrier and from now on, all of the Silver Millennium planets will fall in the hands of Queen Metalia; by the way your king disappeared "mysteriously" into the Negaverse".
Max: What in the world is the Negaverse?
Kun: My father told me once something about it, he told me that it was the dark part of our own universe. According to the old teachings, everything has a mirror image that represents this reality in an inverse way in order for it to exist.
Endymion: As long as I can remember, Mother told me about a big confrontation between two different kingdoms, the light and dark. The Dark Army was stopped by two kinds of warriors, the Sailor Senshi who were women and the Millennium Knights who were men. The Sailor Senshi made the barrier and every general of the Millennium Knights hold part of the key to open the seal. The generals were represented by the Kings of the Solar System.
Endymion: That means that our fathers would be the next Millennium Knights since they are the sons from the old knights.
Zoe: But if the kings get trapped...,
Kun: ...the Millennium Army would not exist anymore and the seal would open!
Max: We should go see Queen Serenity to warn her about the danger that approaches and find out if there hasn't been any more damages.
Before Earth's princes arrived to the Moon, the Kings from every planet were at the Millennium Palace deciding a defense plan.
Saturn's King: King Chiba has not arrived yet.
Mars' King: I know Atlantis' king and he is never late.
Veridion: He will be here, let's begin.
Portravia's king: I say that the best option, is to surrender to the Negaverse; we never fought before and we do not have a chance to defend ourselves.
Veridion: I can not believe you would even consider that option, we will always defend our kingdoms, that is the vow we made to our parents and our people and we WILL obey that vow.
Portravia's king: Then.... you should disappear!!! (it changed into Dissaight and attacked the Millennium king with the Sword of Darkness), and I will come for all of you soon.
After the attack, Dissaight disappeared and no one dared to say a single word; the Moon Kingdom and the Silver Millennium had lost their king. That meant they did not had a chance to restore the seal or reunite the Millennium Army. Now the Universe would have to confront the Negaverse without the heroes that were destined to protect it.
NEXT:NO ONE CAN GO INTO THE MILLENIUM PALACE.
