This is just a intro to a series that I am starting on. The rest will
come later on. Hope you enjoy it.
18 BD: The Silver Millennium
Galite arrived home late from the graduation ceremonies at his
academy. He had just graduated from ta'shuak, or the combat school.
He walked into his family's estate on the outside of Atlantis, in the
northern area. He had accessed his inherent teleportation abilities to
bring him just outside the gate.
" Father, I'm home!" he called as he set his pack down on the nearest
table.
" Ahh, how was your graduation? I remember my grad uation party, how
enjoyable it was, and how much jutak there a was avaiable. Ahh, that
brings back some old memories. Come see me in the den, please." His
father got up as Galite entered his den. " Jutak father? Really, I
would have thought that even you would have your limits. I also thought
than the local brand of it was not to your liking?" " It was good
then, 15 years ago. But that was 30 years ago, and it means nothing
now. So, my son has finally graduated. This is a fine day in the
history of our house. So few graduate from ta'shuak but to think for it
to happen for two generation! Anyway, remember that application that
you sent away for an exchange to the Moon Kingdom? The response came
through, and you have been accepted! You will be given the chance to
visit the Kingdom, see it's wonders, and since to Moon Princess has now
been born, the tradition will be upheld. It will be you who will help
train her and the Younger Senshi in their powers. You should feel
proud, my son." Galite stared at his father, mouth hanging open. To
think, not only to be invited to the Moon Kingdom, but to be able to
become the teacher of the Sailor Senshi! This would guarantee him a
place in the History of the Moon Kingdom! He beamed at his father.
" Did they say when I leave?" Galite asked.
" Yes, you leave in 2 weeks, which leaves us very little time to
celebrate. We should start now! Come, let us go visit my friends in
the Cititdal, I'm sure they will be happy to hear this wonderful new.
" With that, Nephrite patted his son on the back and the two teleported
away to visit the Kunzite and the others, and to tell them the wonderful
news.
The Unsung Heroes
Galite arrived in the Moon Kingdom on time, and he began to
understand why this period in time was called the Silver Millennium.
Everywhere he looked, he saw glittering walls, shinning knight clothed
in armor and fountains pulsing white-silver water from their spouts. He
stood and tried to take all of this is, without looking to much like a
tourist. He did not succeed very well. He stood there gaping, until a
knight spotted the symbol of the House of Quicksilver and came trotting
over.
" Well, you must be Galite, the emissary from Atlantis. I welcome you
to the Moon Kingdom. I am Jonathan, head of the Invitation Platoon."
Galite studied this man, and decided that he liked him. He was standing
there, grinning at Galite.
" Jonathan, I appreciate your greeting. Now, lets drop the
formalities. I never did like them. So, how did you become the head of
the Invitation Platoon? It must be a difficult job, having to sort out
all the pirates and criminals from the decent folk?" " Well, Jonathan
said Having the power to roast anyone who makes any trouble helps. I
have acquired the power to fire manipulate from Elder Senshi Mars
herself. I was perfect for the job, but it is a boring job actually,
and I am looking for a change. But, you are expected at the palace
soon. We should go. " Galite clapped Jonathan on the back, and they
started towards the Moon Palace rising in the distance. As they walked
they talked more, and Galite found his first friend on the Moon.

Galite arrived into the presence of Queen Serenity, and could instantly
see why she was the Queen of the Moon. She had a commanding presence,
and her eyes conveyed a power and knowledge beyonf her years. Even the
sight of a newly born baby on her lap did nothing to diminsh her
stature. He kneeled down before her, awaiting what she had to say to
him.
Mr. Galite, I welcome you to the Moon Kingdom, and hopw you will
enjoy your stay here. You will be trained by the Kingdom army so that
you understand how we fight. As soon as the Moon Princess is able, and
the other Senshi reappear, you will have the honour of training them. I
see that you have made a friend, and I have arranged it so that you can
work with him. He will be given a new assigment to train with you.
Thank you, your Majesty Galite replied I hope that when the
time comes, I will be succedful in training them. Until then, I hope to
truly understand the ways of the Moon Kingdom. I will do my best to
please you.
Galite you will be given quarters, and you will start your training
him tommorrow. Report to General Katrina tommorrow at dawns break
tommorrow. I will see you later, Galite. Even though Queen Serenity
spoke in a flat tone, Galite could see a friendly glint behind her
eyes. He smiled at her, rose and began to follow the white-clad
servents towards the residantal towers.
