Oops!

It appears that I posted the wrong copy of Moon Fight on this list.  I'm
sorry that I didn't notice it earlier.  Anyway, I'm not here to apologize,
I'm here to post the right copy.  Again, I'm sorry about the mistake.

BTW, what do you of the BGC/Volcano crossover?
(This makes sense if you've seen "Volcano".  You know, the movie with
Tommy Lee Jones?)

Here we go, the CORRECT version of Moon Fight.

MOON FIGHT
Episode 1
by Vermilion and Jubei
*****************************************************************************
NORTH POLE-("Day of Destiny" Episode)
	Princess Serenity stood on the glacier with the other
Senshi giving their power to her.
"Mercury Power!"
"Mars Power!"
"Jupiter Power!"
"Venus Power!"
	The giant energy ball formed and was headed toward Queen
Beryl.  However, Beryl saw the energy ball coming.  She drew 
her hands back and when she launched them forward, a black energy
ball twice the size of Serenity's raced toward Serenity.  Serenity
could only stare at the ball headed toward her.  It had neutralized
her own and she knew she couldn't stop it now.  The glacier, along
with Serenity and all hopes for Earth, were destroyed by the energy
ball.  Beryl laughed maniacally.  She had defeated the Sailor Senshi
and with them gone, Earth was hers for the taking.

ONE YEAR LATER
	A group of humans were running with all of their might
through the ruins of Tokyo.  A pair of Dark Kingdom monsters were
chasing them for their life-force.  One of the humans tripped and fell.
As the monsters came closer, she could only scream.  Suddenly, she
heard something:
	"Supreme Thunder!"
	A bolt of lightning shot through one of the monsters 
destroying it.  As the humans and remaining monster looked around,
something else was heard:
	"Fire Soul!"
	The other monster burned into nothing.  The human girl
saw six figures emerge from their hiding places.  What she saw 
surprised her.
	"You're....you're..the Sailor Senshi," she said.  "But 
you're supposed to be dead."
	"Well, we're not," Sailor Jupiter said without emotion.
Sailor Mars helped the girl up and told her, "Spread the word.  
We're back and we'll destroy Beryl and free the Earth."  The
girl ran off with the good news.  As soon as the girl was gone,
Beryl's image appeared above them.
	"So," She bellowed, "you're back."
	"Beryl," Tuxedo Kamen shouted.  "When we find you..."
	"Don't get your hopes up.  You couldn't defeat me at 
the North Pole, so what makes you think you can defeat me now?"
	"Don't underestimate us," Sailor Venus shouted.  "We 
will defeat you."
	"Well, if you think you can, why not participate in 
my tournament?  If you're good enough, you'll have a chance at me.
But, you'll need to defeat other fighters, ones you've never seen
before.  Also, as an added bonus, this is a three on three fight."
A portal to the Dark Kingdom appeared before the Sailors.
	Beryl continued, "Step inside, if you dare.  Ha ha ha ha!"
Beryl's image disappeared.  The Senshi looked at the portal.
	"Well," Venus said, "what teams are we gonna have?"
	Sailor Moon grabbed Tux's cape and said, "I'm with him."
	"Huh?" Tux replied dumbfounded.  The others, with large
sweat drops on their heads, were speechless.
	"I'm joining them," Mars said. "After all, I have to keep 
an eye on you two."
	"Yeah right," Moon replied.  "You're still after my Tuxedo
Kamen.  You're just joining us so that you can be close to him."
	Mars and Moon began one of their infamous arguments.
Meanwhile, the others had huddled around.
	"Let's us go as a team," Jupiter said.
 
	"Yeah, I'm game for that," Venus answered.
	"I don't know," Mercury added, "you two know how I
feel about fighting."
	"C'mon Merc," Jupiter said.  "We have to fight.  It's
the only way we can destroy Beryl and get rid of the Dark Kingdom
forever."
	"Yeah," Venus added.  "We need you.  Please, Mercury?"
	"Well....okay," Mercury gave her decision.  "I'll do it."
	"All right!" Jupiter and Venus shouted.
	As Moon and Mars were fighting, the newly formed team
had gone into the portal.  Tux had saw this and stepped between the 
duo.
	"If I could have your attention," Tux commented, "I'd
like to tell you that the others have gone into the portal.  I 
suggest we join them."
	Mars and Moon agreed and went into the portal with 
Tux.  The portal then closed, at least on the Earth side.
	When the three entered the Dark Kingdom, they
looked around and saw that Jupiter, Venus, and Mercury were nowhere
to be found.  They also noticed that the Dark Kingdom had changed.
It had become a darker place, a place of destruction, death, and 
carnage.  It was not the Dark Kingdom from a year ago.
	Beryl appeared before them.  "Greetings.  I see that you 
have arrived.  You three have a lot of guts to be here.  You'll 
notice that behind you, the portal to Earth remains open."
Tux, Moon, and Mars turned around to see the portal and 
shifted their attention back toward Beryl.
  
	"You'll go back when the tournament starts.  Until then..."
Beryl now had an evil smile on her face.  "Stick around."
	"No way," Mars shouted.  "We're leaving but first,  
you're toast.  Fire Soul!"  Mars launched her fire stream toward 
Beryl but was stopped by some force field.
	"Ah, you're quite anxious.  Well, you're not the only ones."
She floated straight up a few feet and showed the trio a picture of
Jupiter, Venus, and Mercury looking around as curious as they were.
"Your friends are somewhere.  Don't worry, you'll
see them again when the tournament begins.  In the meantime,
make yourselves comfortable."  Beryl was gone again.  Tux hanged 
his head.
  
	"What's wrong?" Moon asked.
	"When I worked for Beryl, she would often mention something
she referred to as the Negaforce.  Some sort of power, I guess.  
She said that when we were destroyed, she could finally use it to 
rule Earth."
	Mars said bravely, "Negaforce or not, we'll defeat Beryl.  
After all, we are the Sailor Senshi, champions of justice."
	Tux replied, "Yeah, but we couldn't defeat Beryl when 
she didn't have that power.  Now that she does..."
	"We have to try," Moon butted in, "let's wait for this
tournament to begin, we'll beat these so-called other fighters, and
crush Beryl, even with that Negaforce."
	"Yeah, I guess so."  Tux sat down.  Moon and Mars sat by him
and together they waited.
	In the throne room, Beryl watched the Sailors.  "Hmmm...
finally I have them in my world.  At last, I can destroy them.  I 
could just kill them with the Negaforce, but there's no fun in that.
At least in this tournament, I may not have to.  That is, if I can find 
other fighters worthy and strong enough to do the job.  But no one 
on Earth can do so.  Therefore.."  Beryl stood up and walked to 
another room.  She opened the door with a wave of her hand and
went inside.  The room looked like a scene from space with the 
exception of a group of symbols on the floor.  Beryl closed her eyes
and like magic a series of portals appeared.  Opening her eyes,
Beryl looked around at the various worlds the portals had to offer.
"So these are where I sensed those powers," she thought, "Let's
find out where exactly I can find them."  She picked a portal and 
went inside.

FURINKAN HIGH SCHOOL
	A boy with a pigtail was walking along muttering to himself.
"I can't believe what happened today.  First, Shampoo almost ran me
over.  Then Ryoga challenged me....again.  What else could go wrong?"
The wind picked up and a large portal opened in front of the boy.
He could not believe what he saw exit the portal.  It appeared to be
a woman with reddish hair down to her feet.  She was wearing a 
purple dress and was holding a strange scepter in one hand.
	"Who are you," the boy shouted.
	"I am Queen Beryl.  And you must be Ranma Saotome, right?"
	"Yeah, that's right," Ranma replied.  "What's it to you?"
	"You're a good fighter.  How about testing your superiority
in my tournament?  Or aren't you man enough to try?"
	Offended, Ranma shouted, "I AM a man!  I'll join your
fight.  I'll show you and everyone else that gets in my way."
	An evil smile formed on Beryl's face.  She knew she could get
him to join.  "Good," she said.  "However, this tournament is a special one.
It consists of teams of three.  You'll need to find two other members.
When you've found them, return here."
	"Count on it."  Ranma ran off to find his teammates.
	"Fool," Beryl thought, "he doesn't even know of the fate that
awaits him.  Huh?"  Beryl turned and saw a small dark figure hopping off
into the distance.  "Probably nothing," she thought.
	Back at the Tendo dojo, Ranma was in his room practicing 
his moves.  A knock on the door ended his session.  He opened the
door and saw Akane standing there.
	
	"What do you want?" Ranma asked sternly.
	"I want to know what's going on with you," 
Akane answered back.
	"I'm going to fight in some weird tournament."
	"What tournament?"
	"A tournament that's made up of teams of three.
I'm going to find two more people and show Beryl what I'm made of."
	"Who's Beryl?"
	"The host, I guess.  Now out of my way, I'm off to find my team."
Just as Ranma was about to leave, Akane stopped him.
	Meanwhile, Shampoo was cleaning off some tables 
Cologne appeared at the door.
	"Great Grandmother.  You back."
	"Daughter," The old lady said, "this is your chance
to finally get rid of Akane and have Son-in-law to yourself at last."
	"How do Shampoo do that?"
	"Near the high school, there's a weird being that invited Ranma
to compete in a tournament which he accepted.  The tournament is
made up of teams of three fighters.  Ranma has gone back home to 
prepare for the fight.  Hurry to the Tendo dojo and become one of
his teammates.  And when you do, get Akane out of the way."
	Shampoo formed a evil grin on her face.  "Okay, I do it."
	"One more thing," Cologne advised.
	"What?"
	"Be careful around the host.  I'm sensing some sort of 
evil power around her.  If you're not careful, you'll....huh?"
Cologne looked around and saw that Shampoo was long gone.
	"Wait!" Akane was practically begging.
	"Now what?" Ranma impatiently asked.
	"I'll go with you."
	"What?  No way.  There's no way my team is
gonna have a tomboy like you in it."  Ranma would have said more,
but Akane's fist stopped him from talking for a few minutes.
	"I'm not going to argue with you.  Let's just go to this 
Beryl person and for once, you're going to cooperate."  Ranma 
shrugged and was about ready to open the door when they saw that
Shampoo was standing there.
	"Ranma!"
	"Oh," Ranma groaned.  "Hi Shampoo."
	"Shampoo hear of tournament you fight in.  I be
teammate."
	By this point, Ranma didn't want to argue with anyone
"Fine.  You can join Akane and me and be our third teammate.  Now
let's go."  The three went off to find Beryl and enter the tournament.
	"Ranma!  Where are you??!?"
Just then, another boy appeared near Beryl.  He was wearing a yellow 
shirt, green pants, and sported a yellow and black bandanna.  The boy 
caught a glimpse of Beryl and turned to look at her.  He then backed
up, obviously in fright.
	"Who....who are you?" the boy said with a frightened look.
	"I'm Queen Beryl.  Who are you?"
	"I'm Ryoga.  Ryoga Hibiki."
	"I hear you're looking for some Ranma guy.  You can find him
in my tournament."
	"Really?"
	"Yes.  Care to join?"
	Without thinking it over, Ryoga accepted.
	"Good," Beryl said.  "This battle is made up of teams of three.
Ranma has gone to from his team.  I suggest you do the same thing."
	"Okay," was the reply of Ryoga.  Then he thought, 
"Now where do I find teammates?"
	Just then, another person appeared.  This one was 
female and was sporting a large stick with a flat metal pentagon
on her back.  "Ryoga," the girl shouted, "where did you think you
were going?"
	"Hey Ukyo," Ryoga said.
	"What now?" Ukyo replied with a little bit of disgust.
	"I need some teammates for a tournament I entered.
Wanna join me?"
	"Why should I?"
	"Because Ranma will be there."
	"He will?"
	"Yup."  Ryoga then thought, "And if he's
there, then chances are Akane will be there, too.  And if I can
beat Ranma, then..."
	"Then I'll do it.  I'll join you."
	"Good.  Now where do find a third member?"
	A familiar laugh echoed through the area.  Ryoga,
Ukyo, and Beryl turned to the girl in the leotard that stood in
front of them.  
	"Kodachi," Ukyo shouted.  "Where did you come from?"
	"Did I hear it right?" Kodachi asked.  "Did I hear you 
say that my Ranma was going to be in this team fight?  If so,
I want to join him."
	Ryoga and Ukyo groaned at the sight of hearing this.
	"Hey Beryl!"
	Beryl turned and saw that Ranma and his team were
ready to go.
	"Ahh," Beryl said, "You have your team.  Great.
Shall we go?" 
	Unaware of the fact that Ryoga, Ukyo, and Kodachi were
near them, the team of Ranma, Akane, and Shampoo entered the portal.
Beryl turned around to the other three and asked, "Well, what about you
three?"
	The second team jumped into the portal after the first team.  
Beryl closed the portal so that no one else can enter.   "Hmm.." she 
thought, "I was aware of Ranma's power, but I wasn't aware of the 
power this Ryoga guy possesses.  He may also be a threat to the
Negaforce.  We'll see soon enough."  Beryl was now standing back 
in the portal room.  She looked into her scepter and saw, one at 
time, the teams, some were sitting, others were standing.  Beryl 
laughed seeing this.  She knew it would be only a matter of time
before they die.  Just then she sensed a presence in the world of
the Sailors.  Beryl reopened the portal and entered to see what 
that presence was. 

RUINS OF TOKYO
	Rubeus and the Four Sisters appeared form out of the thin air.
	"What is this?" Catsy asked.
	"Hmmm, as I thought," Rubeus contemplated to 
himself.  "The story of Beryl if true indeed.  The ruins are proof 
of this.  If that's true, then maybe the story of the Negaforce is
true also."
	A hole opened up in front of Rubeus and Beryl appeared
from the hole.
	"Ah, Beryl," Rubeus said.  "So you do exist."
	"I don't know who you are," Beryl said, "but I suggest
that you do not interfere with my plans.  Otherwise, the results 
could be...well, bleak."
	"Bleak?" Rubeus asked.
	"I see you need an example of the true power of the
Negaforce.  I'll be more than happy to show you."  Beryl lifted
her hand up and four columns of energy consumed the sisters
dissolving them.  Rubeus closed his eyes in anger while he could
hear the sisters' screams.  All of this took only a few seconds.
"Now," Beryl said, "was that a good enough example?  You have 
been warned, stay out of my way."  Beryl returned to the portal.
	"So the Negaforce does exist," Rubeus thought.  
"If I could get that power, even the Wiseman will call me 'master'."
Rubeus ran as fast as he could toward the portal and was able to
enter it seconds before the portal closed.  
	Back at the portal room, Beryl looked and wondered
where she should go this time.  There were quite a few to choose
from, but there was one that caught her eye.  This portal showed
a very large array of what humans called buildings.  One of them
was a pyramid-like building and towered over the rest.  "Hmm,"
Beryl thought, "this looks interesting.  Let's see what I can find
here."  She then jumped into the portal to find perhaps another
team to participate in her evil game.

MEGATOKYO
	The streets of Megatokyo around the Silky Doll shop 
were empty except for a pair of Boomers and four armored beings
known as the Knight Sabers.  They were locked in combat, a deadly 
combat the Sabers knew all too well.  One of the Boomers attacked 
first by letting loose a few rounds from its arm cannon before Linna 
flipped around and shredded it off by her ribbons.  She got out of
the way to let Priss come in and finish it off.  Priss easily did that
by launching several energy knives into the Boomer resulting in the 
Boomer falling , out of commission before it even hit the ground.  The
twosome's victory was cut short when they heard a familiar scream.
	"Nene!" Priss shouted.
	"Again?" Linna asked sarcastically.  "Doesn't she ever learn?"
The two rushed over to where Nene was as fast as they could.
	The other Boomer had grabbed Nene with blinding speed
and was choking her before she knew what hit her.  Just then, the 
Boomer felt something penetrate its back.  Nene looked over and
saw that Sylia had used her sword to kill the Boomer.  She could feel
the Boomer's grip loosen up enough for her to free herself.  When
she was freed, she fired a few rounds into the Boomer, deactivating it.
Priss and Linna arrived just after the second Boomer had fallen.
	"So," Linna said to Nene, "surprised again, huh?"
	"Shut up," Nene replied angrily.  "I couldn't see it coming."
	"How many times have I heard that before?"
	"All right, you two," Sylia said to break up the melee,
"let's get out of here before.."
	A voice was heard, "Excellent work."
	The Sabers looked around to find where the voice came from.
	"Who's there?" Priss shouted.  Beryl then appeared in front 
of our four heroines.
	"Greetings, ladies.  I am Queen Beryl of the 
Dark Kingdom."
	"Dark Kingdom?" Linna asked.  "Never heard of it."
	"You will soon," Beryl replied.  "As soon as you enter
my tournament."
	"Enter your tournament?  Ha!" Nene said.  "And just
what makes you think we'll enter your little fray?"
	"Oh, you'll enter," Beryl said convincingly, "that is if you
want to see your friend here alive."  She snapped her fingers
and Mackie appeared.  He was unconscious and was frozen inside
a crystal.  "He's just resting now, but you don't enter, I'm afraid
he'll be permanently in this state.  Now what'll it be?"
	Sylia, with her head down, replied with, "You win.
We accept your challenge."
	"What?" Priss was showing the little used emotion
of concern.  "Sylia, are you nuts?  We don't know what this
bitch has in store for us."
	"I know, Priss," Sylia monotonously said, "but she
has my brother.  I can't just leave him, no matter who's got 
him.  I have to save him and..."
	"You mean WE have to save him," Linna finished.  
"Okay, Beryl, we'll fight.  But when we win, watch out.  We'll
be coming after you."
	"We'll see about that," Beryl answered.  She raised 
her hands up and a portal appeared behind them.  "Follow me."
Beryl entered followed by the crystallized Mackie and the Knight
Sabers.  
	After the Sabers entered the portal, Largo, who was 
watching the whole escapade take place unknown to the Sabers or
Beryl, vaulted into the portal before it closed.  He had seen all
the events take place and wanted the glory of crushing the Knight
Sabers to himself.  Also, he sensed something about Beryl was 
not right.  He wanted to find what Beryl is really all about.
	The Knight Sabers arrived in the Dark Kingdom, a
place of sheer desolation.  They couldn't find Beryl anywhere.
	"Where'd she go," Linna asked.
	"I don't know," Nene answered, "but I think we'll 
find her soon enough."
	Suddenly, a booming voice was heard.  It was that
of Beryl.
	"Where are you and what did you do to Mackie?"
Sylia shouted.
	"Relax, he's fine for now," the voice bellowed.  "As for
me, where I am is not important right now.  All you have to do is
wait, you'll see me again soon enough.  Oh by the way, I thought
I'd tell you the rules of this contest.  This is a special tournament,
consisting of teams of three.  That means one of you has to go.
If you can beat the other fighters, you'll be able to face me.  Win
and I set your brother go.  Lose and your world will become mine.
Ha ha ha ha..." The voice faded away laughing.
	When Rubeus looked around, he couldn't see Beryl
but a vast dark wasteland.  Just then, another portal opened.
A strange being jumped out of the portal.  The two made eye contact
and looked at one another for a short time before one of them spoke.
	"Who are you," Rubeus asked.
	The strange man answered, "I'm Largo and if you know
any better, you'll let me pass."
	"Wait.." Rubeus shouted.  He had just remembered 
everything that happened at this time.  He remembered hearing about
how Beryl killed all the fighters with the Negaforce.  He remembered
about how the tournament was conducted.  If he could get Largo to 
join him.....
	"What?" Largo asked impatiently.
	"I need your help."
	"My help?  How?"
	"I need two other people to join me in a team tournament."
	"So?"
	"I know of a great power that exists here.  If we could get it,
we can crush all our enemies.  What do you say?"
	Largo thought it over.  If this person is telling the truth, then
he could do what Genom could only dream about, crushing the Knight
Sabers.  "I agree.  I will be your teammate."
	"Excellent." Rubeus thought.  

A LAKESIDE HOME SOMEWHERE IN ANOTHER TOKYO
	Tenchi Masaki was working in his garden with Ryo-Oh-Ki
right behind him.  Ryo-Oh-Ki looking around as if she was expecting 
something to pop up at any moment.  Tired of waiting, she burrowed
into the garden until Tenchi grabbed her by the tail.
	"You're pretty impatient, aren't you?" he asked the 
rabbit-cat hybrid.  "These carrots don't just appear overnight, you
have to wait."  Ryo-Oh-Ki let out a slight sigh.  As Tenchi was 
putting the cabbit down, he caught a glimpse of something green and
something purple.  He looked to where the colors were and to no
surprise to him, he saw that Ryoko and Ayeka were arguing about
something.  What it was, he didn't know.  He was out of their voice
range, fortunately.  "Will those two ever stop fighting?" he thought.
Just as he was about to answer his own question, a large black hole 
formed above him, picking the wind up.  As Tenchi braced himself,
he could see that some sort of strange woman was coming out of the
hole.  At this point, Ryoko and Ayeka, along with Washu and Sasami,
arrived at Tenchi's location.  They had seen the disturbance and 
rushed over.
	"Greetings, Tenchi Masaki," the woman bellowed.
	"Who or what are you?" Tenchi asked.  "And how do you
who I am?"
	"I'm Queen Beryl," the woman answered.  "I know all about
you and your power.  The Wings of the Light Hawk, right?  I also know 
about......your mother."
	"Mom...."
	"She died at quite an early age, don't you think?   You wish
she could see you now, right?  Well, I can help you with that.  
Enter my team tournament and if you win, I can make sure your mother
lives beyond when she's supposed to die."
	"Tenchi," Ayeka shouted over the howling wind, "don't
be a fool."
	"It's a trap," Ryoko shouted.  "No one can do what this...thing
promised, not even me."
	"Are these your friends?" Beryl asked.  "Perhaps they could 
join you as your team.  It's your choice, does your mother live or die?"
	Tenchi clenched his fists in anger.  He didn't know what to do.
This being comes out of nowhere and promises to give him back what
God took away.  There could be some truth in this.  Yes, if there is
a chance that Mom can come back....
	"I'll join your fight," Tenchi responded.  The others
gasped in utter shock, taken aback by his decision.
	Beryl smiled an evil smile.  "Good.  Now who will
you pick to be your teammates?"
	"I'll go," Ryoko and Ayeka said in unison.
	"No, don't," Washu shouted.  But before she or
Sasami could do anything, Beryl held out her hand and with an
invisible blast, sent the two reeling back to near the house, leaving
trails of dirt.
	"Excellent.  Let's go."  Tenchi and the girls were sucked 
into the portal.  Beryl disappeared and the hole closed.
	Meanwhile, Washu recovered from the blast, still
a bit shaken.  "What was that?" she asked.  She then remembered
about Sasami and her attention over to her.  "Sasami, are you okay?"
	"I'm fine," Sasami answered.  "But what about Tenchi?  What
about Ryoko or my sister?  Washu, you gotta do something."
	"I wish I could, but I can't..."
	"Why not?"
	"Because I give my dimensional gate opener to Mihoshi
by accident and she's in her ship.  We'll just have wait until she
returns."
	Meanwhile, in the underwater ship, Mihoshi, completely
unaware of what had happened above, was fooling around with
Washu's cube shaped portal opener.
	"Mihoshi," Ukenojo(the robot inside the ship) said,
"be careful with that.  You don't know what could happen."
	"Relax," Mihoshi replied.  "I'll be just fine."  As she
twisted a side of the cube around, it started to glow.  The cube 
started to float in the air and expanded into a door.  "What's going
on here?"  Just then, Mihoshi could feel herself getting sucked into 
the door.  She tried to grab on to something sturdy, but since there
was nothing, she fell into the door, with the door closing after she 
entered it.

WWWA HEADQUARTERS-THE FUTURE
	Outside of the WWWA building, the Lovely Angels,
better known throughout the galaxy as the Dirty Pair, were ready to
board their ship when a door shaped object appeared above them.
	"What's going on," Kei shouted.
	"It looks like some kind of.....door," Yuri shouted
back.  "Hey look, something's coming out of it."  Yuri pointed
to the human shaped object exiting the door.  She and Kei looked
on as a woman fell from the door and onto the ground between them.
The Pair kneeled down to see if the woman was all right.
	"Hey," Kei asked calmly, "are you all right?" 
	The woman, seemingly unhurt, replied with, "Yeah, 
I'm fine, I guess."
	Yuri motioned for Kei.  When Kei walked over, Yuri
began to whisper, "Check out the uniform." 
	"What about it?" Kei wondered.
	"That's a Galaxy Police uniform.  They disbanded one
hundred years ago, when the 3WA was formed."
	"Yeah, you're right," Kei replied while looking over the
girl's uniform.  "But what's the deal with this?"
	"I don't know, but let's find out."  Yuri went over to the woman
and asked, "What are you doing with that on?"  She pointed to the 
badge on this woman's chest.
	"Huh?" the woman asked, "Oh, uh..." She quickly got up. 
"My name's Mihoshi and I'm a Galaxy Police detective."
	"Mihoshi, huh?" Kei replied back.  "Well, pleased to meet
you.  I'm Kei and she's Yuri and we're the Lovely Angels."
	"Lovely Angels?" Mihoshi asked.  "Never heard of you."
Mihoshi looked around at her new surroundings.  "Hey, where am I?"
	"You're at 3WA headquarters," Yuri answered.
	"Huh?  What?" Mihoshi was now worried.  She didn't quite
know what was going on.
	"Where are you from," Kei answered back.
	"I'm from Tokyo.  I live in a house by a lake."
	"No, I meant what year are you from?"	
	"Oh, well the earth year 1997, of course.  Why?"
	The Angels had another huddle.
	"She doesn't know that this is 2161," Kei whispered.
"I don't know how, but she traveled ahead in time."
	"That would explain the Galaxy Police uniform," Yuri
responded.  "We might as well tell her."
	"All right," Kei said, feeling a bit disgruntled.  Turning
toward Mihoshi, she said, "Mihoshi, I've got some bad news for you."
	"What news?"
	"This is the year 2161.  You somehow must have traveled
ahead in time and arrived here."
	For once in her life, Mihoshi came up with a logical idea.  "That
cube must have been some kind of time travel device.  But how do I go
back home?"
	"Kei," Yuri said, "we gotta go.  We have a mission to accomplish, 
remember?"
	"But what about her?" Kei asked pointing to Mihoshi.
	"We'll take her with us, now let's go."  Along with their new 
companion, the Angels boarded their ship.  On the ship, with Mihoshi
in the back, the girls reviewed their mission.
	"Okay now Yuri," Kei said, "let me get this straight.  We're 
supposed to go back in time to compete in some kind of fight?  
I don't get it."
	"All right, listen and maybe you'll understand," Yuri replied 
sarcastically.  "In the Earth year 1997, there is a tournament hosted
by a Queen Beryl.  Beryl ruled the planet at that time and the only
beings that could stop her were invited to join.  All of them 
accepted, but most of them did not know of the Negaforce, some sort
of weird power Beryl possessed.  She used this power to destroy the
fighters and with them gone, she ruled Earth for many years."
	"What does that have to do with us?"
	"Because since Beryl ruled the Earth, the remaining members of
the human race were forced to flee in order to avoid her wrath.  As a
result, our own home world has been considered off limits."
	"And?"
	"And that's where we come in.  We have to go back in time, 
compete in the tournament, and destroy Beryl.  That should give
the human race a much brighter future."
	"And how do we go back in time?"
	"Easy.  This ship has been equipped with a TDD."
	"TDD?"
	"Time Displacement Device.  That's how we go back in time.  
When we do arrive in the past, we have to look for a way to enter
that fray."
	Kei, who looking over the mission review, noted, "That's not all we
have to do.  It says here that the tourney was a three-on-three 
ordeal.  We're gonna need a third member.  But who?"  Both girls then
turned their heads to where Mihoshi was.
	"Wh-What?" Mihoshi asked worryingly.
	"We need your help," Kei said.  "We're supposed to enter a three-
on-three tournament, but we're short one.  We can't enter without a
third member.  Could you help us please?"
	"Um," Mihoshi thought, "sure, I guess."
	"All right," Yuri shouted.  "Now let's go kick some serious butt."
She pushed a few buttons and the Lovely Angel accelerated to beyond
light speed.  "TDD activating now!"  Suddenly, all the trio could 
see was white seconds before they went unconscious.
	When the Lovely Angels and Mihoshi awoke, they saw that
they had landed in some sort of ruined city.  To make sure where 
they were, Yuri looked at the computer.  She turned to Kei and 
Mihoshi and said, "We made it.  We're in the year 1997.  Tokyo,
Japan.....what's left of it."  
	The three got out of the ship to look at their new surroundings. 
They were not too exciting to look at.  Buildings destroyed, 
rubble everywhere, not one person to be seen.
	"Where is everybody?" Mihoshi asked.
	"Probably hiding," Kei answered.  "Beryl rules now and nobody
wants to die by her hands."
	"In any case," Yuri commented.  "we should hide the ship so 
one finds out about it."  She pulled out a small device with some
buttons on it.
	"Shouldn't we move it first?" Kei asked.
	"Nah," Yuri said, "no one will be out and about anytime
soon." She pushed a button and the ship disappeared.
	"Now how do we find where....." In the distance, Mihoshi saw
some sort of hole with three people, two girls and a guy, jumping
into.  "Hey, I bet that's where we go.  Let's move."  The three ran 
as fast as they could.  The hole was closing fast, so they each took
a dive into the hole and made it through a split second before the
hole closed.
	When the Angles and Mihoshi landed on the other side, they
saw the girls and guy in the distance.  They look like they were 
talking to a person who seem to be floating in the air.  The floating
woman then disappeared.
	"That's her," Yuri said pointing to where the 
floating woman was.  "That's Queen Beryl."
	"Is that so?" Kei said.  "She doesn't look tough."
	"Wait," Yuri replied before Kei could do anything.  
"Let's wait until the tournament starts."
	Back in the portal room, Beryl sensed something in her 
Dark Kingdom.  She looked into her scepter and saw Mihoshi and the 
Angels standing and waiting.  "Who are they?" she thought.  "Looks like
more entries.  Better give them my welcoming."
	"Who are you three ladies?"  A booming voice shouted at the trio.
	Kei answered the voice with, "I'm Kei, she's Yuri, and
we're the Lovely Angels.  And this is Mihoshi of the Galaxy Police."
	"Hi there, Beryl," Mihoshi commented.  "Nice to 
hear you."  The Angels nearly fell to the floor in shock.
	"Uh, yeah," the voice replied.  "Anyway, I assume you three
are here to join my tournament."
	"That's right," Yuri shouted, "and we'll make sure you go down."
	"Wait a minute," Mihoshi shouted.  "Are we gonna fight?  But
I don't know how to fight."
	Kei and Yuri stared angrily at Mihoshi.  "YOU DON'T??"
they shouted in unison.  "WELL, I SUGGEST YOU LEARN QUICKLY!!"
	The voice's response was, "Hah hah....well, for now just make 
yourselves comfortable for now.  As soon as I find some more...uh....
'players', the tournament will begin.  Be patient, my friends...hah 
hah hah hah...."

ANOTHER ALTERNATE TOKYO
	The devilish appearing monster was scurrying around at blinding
speeds.   Neither Yohko nor Azusa, the famed Devil Hunters, were 
able to keep up with it.  The monster got the jump on Yohko when it
scraped her left leg causing her to fall to the ground.  Azusa ran
to Yohko's aid.  
	"Yohko, are you all right?" she asked with a bit of worry.
	"For now," Yohko replied.  "But I don't know how much 
longer we can last against this monster.  It's just too fast for us."
Yohko got up to her feet aided by Azusa.  "There may be a way.  
Azusa, let's combine our powers.  That way we should.....what is that?"
At that moment, the two heroines witnessed something neither of them
had ever seen before.  They saw the monster being consumed by a beam
of energy that came out of seemingly nowhere.
	"What was that," Azusa asked Yohko.
	"I don't know," Yohko replied softly but loud enough 
for Azusa to hear.  "but whoever did that is very strong."
	"Yes, I am strong indeed."
	The Devil Hunters looked around to see where the voice was
coming from.  Suddenly, a weird portal opened in front of them.  
In the middle of the portal, a strange woman appeared.
	"Did you kill that demon?" Azusa asked the woman.
	"Yes," the woman responded, "I did kill that monster.  And 
unless you want me to use that power on you and your families, you'll
come with me."
	"Kind of demanding, isn't she?" Yohko thought to herself.
"Who are you to order us around?" she shouted at the figure.
	The woman replied by saying, "I am Queen Beryl, possessor
of the Negaforce.  That's what you saw when I killed that 
so-called demon."
	"There's something evil about this Beryl person," Yohko 
thought.  "I think that she could go about her threat.  I guess
we have no other choice."  "Beryl," Yohko shouted, "I'll go 
with you."
	"And if she goes," Azusa added, "I'll go."
	Beryl let out an low toned and brief laugh.  "Good.  
Now follow me." The Devil Hunters reluctantly followed Beryl
into the portal. 
	"Lose and your world will become mine.
Ha ha ha ha..."  Beryl's voice was gone.  The Knight Sabers had
to do something.  They needed to sacrifice one of their own so that
they can try to save Mackie.
	"Well," Linna asked, "who's the one who sits out?"
	Priss was the first to reply.  "Well, I think only the strongest of
us should go as a team.  Now, which one of us has the least fighting
ability?"  She and Linna turned their complete attention to Nene.
	"Wh-why are you two looking at me like that?  Sylia,
do something."  But Sylia was too lost in her thoughts to help.  
Suddenly, a hole opened behind them and two teenage girls dressed in
red and carrying weapons stepped out.  When the two groups met, they
were shocked at what they saw.
	"Who are you guys?" Yohko asked.
	"We're the Knight Sabers," Nene answered.  
"Who might you two be?"
	"I'm the 108th generation Devil Hunter, Yohko."	
	"I'm the Devil Hunter in training Azusa."
	"We're here to find and kill someone who calls 
herself Queen Beryl."
	"Join the club," Priss said.  "We're trying to do the 
same thing."
	"Then let's join up," Azusa suggested.
	"No can do," Linna replied.  "She's organized a three-
on-three tournament.  We're deciding which one of us goes."	
	Nene interjected.  "I'll step out and join these Devil 
Hunters.  I'm sure they won't mind my company, unlike others I
know."  She walked over and stood between Yohko and Azusa.  
	"Uhm, well then," Linna said, "I guess that's that. 
Now me, Priss and Sylia can be a team."  Just then, Nene and the
Devil Hunters began to disappear.  "Hey, where are they going?
Beryl!  Where did you take them?"
	"I put them in a safe place until the fighting starts,"
Beryl's voice boomed.  "Now you three just relax and wait.  
You'll see your friend soon."	
	Back in the portal room, Beryl stood in front of the last portal
open.  "I sense three powerful beings here.  I must convince them 
to join the fight so I can destroy them."  She jumped into the portal
to find the three powerful beings.
	As this was happening, Kunzite and Zoicite were discussing
things.
	"Good news, Zoi," Kunzite said.  "I have found the perfect
fighters to work with."
	"That's great.  Now we can get our revenge on Beryl for 
what she did to us and we can have all of that power to ourselves."
	"Yes.  I will go meet these two fighters and convince them 
to join.  Zoi, you go around and see what is going on with the other
fighters and keep me informed."
	"Right."  Zoicite then vanished.
	"Now it's time," Kunzite vanished seconds after Zoicite did.
	Meanwhile, Largo and Rubeus were standing around.
	"Well," Largo asked, "what now?"
	"I will join you."
	Rubeus and Largo looked up and saw a man hovering
above them.
	"Hello, Rubeus and Largo.  I am Kunzite, general
of the Dark Kingdom.  I know what both of you seek and I can 
help you obtain it.  Allow me to join you in the tournament.  I
know that together, we can win it and take the power you seek
from Beryl.  Do we have a deal?"
	Without discussing, Rubeus answered, "We have a deal.
Join us, Dumzite."
	"That's Kunzite and I am pleased with your decision."
He began to float down to the ground.
	"Hey" Largo asked, "can we trust him?"
	Rubeus answered with, "For now, until the tournament
is over." 

A TEMPLE SOMEWHERE NEAR NAKOMI TECH
	Outside the temple, the sky was bright, not giving any 
indication of what was to come.  Sitting on the steps were Keiichi
Morisato, a college student, and Belldandy, a living goddess.
	"Isn't this a wonderful day, Keiichi?" Belldandy 
asked with a lovingly voice.	
	"Yup," Keiichi replied.  "it sure is."  He turned around
when he heard Belldandy yell out in pain.  He saw that saw had her
head down and was holding on to it.  Urd and Skuld, who heard their
sister's painful yell, rushed out to see what had happened.
	"Sis," Skuld worryingly said, "are you alright?"
	"Aaaah...." Belldandy yelled out.  "My head."
	"What," Urd asked with the same worryedness 
Skuld possessed, "what's wrong with you?"
	"I'm sensing...." Belldandy said, "...it.  It is near."
	"What," Keiichi asked.  "What 'it'?"
A large black hole opened up near the steps where the four of them
were at.  A womanlike figure stepped out of the portal.  Belldandy
raised her head up to see the figure exiting the portal.
	"That's it," Belldandy said pointing to the figure.  
"That's what I was sensing.  Whoever she is has nothing but evil
power flowing through her.  It's....no, it can't be..."
	"Who the hell are you?" Urd demanded.
	"I'm Queen Beryl, that's who the hell I am.
I've come here to extend in invitation to you and your friends."  
Beryl pointed in Belldandy's direction.  "I know you that you're a 
goddess of the light.  I know you wish to destroy me, so if you have
the guts, step through this hole and enter my tournament.  That is, 
if you think you have a prayer....." Beryl faded back into the portal.
	"I have to go," Belldandy said monotonously.
	"You won't go alone," Skuld said.  "I'm going too."
	"Count me in," Urd replied.  "I don't want you two 
hogging all the glory." 
	"Hold on here," Keiichi interjected, "what if something 
happens to you three?"	
	"Don't worry," Belldandy said in her soothing voice, 
"we'll be just fine.  We'll be back.  Trust me."  She gave Keiichi
a light kiss on the forehead before she and her sisters disappeared 
into the portal.
	Meanwhile, Kaguya, a entity who had observed the 
previous events from the rooftop, knew what was going on.
"So," she thought.  "then the stories about it are indeed true."  
She turned to her stump-sized assistant.  "Go back home, Pipi.
I must go alone."
	"But..."
	"Go!!" Kaguya kicked Pipi as hard as she could and 
watched him fly off into space..  "I have to warn whoever else is in
this tournament of Beryl's and warn them of the Negaforce.  And
maybe I can get some revenge on Belldandy..."  She then flew down 
into the portal moments before it vanished.  Keiichi saw her fly 
down but dismissed it and went back inside.  "Good luck, Belldandy,"
he thought to himself.
	When the goddesses entered the Dark Kingdom, all of Belldandy's
 worst fears came true.  "It does exist.  Her...it...everything."
	"What do you mean 'her...it....everything'?" Urd asked.
 	Belldandy began to explain.  "It was a story that the Almighty
told me once.  The story of the Dark Kingdom.  It was a place of 
death and destruction everywhere.  It was ruled by a being named 
Queen Beryl.  Her only opposition were six human fighters called
the Sailor something or other, I forget...."  Skuld turned around and
saw a figure appear and take off so fast that she couldn't recognize
it.  Belldandy continued, "anyway, they had incredible powers, powers
of fire, lightning, just to name a few.  But they didn't know the 
entire truth behind a power that Beryl had, a power called the 
Negaforce.  It was the darkest power in the universe.  She used it
to destroy them and rule their world.  And all this time, I thought 
it was only legend.  Now I know that Beryl and the Negaforce exist.
If that's the case, then maybe the Sailors exist, too.  I only hope 
we don't have to fight or hurt them in any way."
	"We won't need them," Urd replied. 
"We can kick her ass ourselves."  
	"Look!" Skuld shouted.
****
	A warm summer air blows through the valley.  The animals in the forest 
go about their daily business.  Several birds chirp merrily as a reindeer 
prances to a small lake and takes a refreshing sip.  An air of peace and 
tranquility is evident.
That is, until a loud scream was heard...
"KAMEHAMEHA!!!!"
The silence is broken as a massive burst of energy blasts through a wall 
of trees and finally buries itself into the side of a towering cliff.  
>From out of nowhere, a lone figure flies through the newly made path.  It 
seems that it is being followed by another team of figures.
"Where could he have gone?", Son Goku inquires, "I was sure that Cell got 
fried by the blast!"
Son Goku, Vegita, Piccolo, and Trunks soar through the skies, desperately 
searching for their foe.  The forest is very vast and dense, making their 
task extremely difficult.  "Let's split up and search for him separately. 
 That way, we can cover more ground.  If any of you guys find him, then 
give a yell and we'll be there in a flash!", Goku says.
"OK.  I'll head into that plot of trees there."  Vegita flies deep into 
the forest.  Piccolo follows.
"Trunks," Son Goku commands, "Stay up here and keep watch.  I'll also be 
inside the forest."  Goku leaves Trunks and heads into another part of 
the forest.  Trunks continues to hover, keeping a look out for Cell.
"Man", Trunks says to himself, "If I get my hands on Cell, I'll..."
"You'll what?"
Trunks turns around and before him is Cell, hovering majestically over 
him.  "Foolish boy", Cell says, "You think that you are a match for me?"  
He raises his arm and charges his internal energy into it.
"NO!", Trunks screams.  Trunks charges at Cell at the speed of light.  He 
thinks to himself, "I must stop him from charging up!  Otherwise..."
CRASH!!!!!
"What was that?", Goku wonders, "I bet Trunks is in trouble!  I better go 
help him!"  Son Goku flies out of the trees into the blue sky.  He 
notices Cell, falling from a powerful hit, and Trunks, transforming into 
a SuperSaiyajin.  Trunks gives out a powerful yell as his purple hair 
stands up into the air and is changed to a golden color.  Son Goku 
decides to help Trunks by transforming into a SuperSaiyajin as well.  
Vegita emerges from the forest.  It seems that he heard what Goku heard a 
second ago.  "Alright Cell!", Vegita yells, "YOU'RE DEAD!!!!  
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!"  Vegita himself transforms as well.
"TRUNKS!", Piccolo screams, "I'm coming to help!!"  Piccolo flies out of 
the thick trees towards Cell.
Quickly, the quartet continue to chase Cell around the forest.  Suddenly, 
a black hole emerges in the sky.  An evil-looking woman emerges from the 
hole.
"Hmm...", Queen Beryl thinks to herself, "I feel an extremely powerful 
presence here.  I bet this power would be a wonderful challenger in my 
tournament.
"You're not getting away from us, Cell!  Not this time!", Goku shouts.
"Hehehehe.", Cell laughs, "You'll never ca... WHAT THE???"
"Wait a minute", Beryl stops, "I sense it coming closer.  Yes!  Closer!  
Clo... AAAAHHH!!"
Cell collides into Queen Beryl, forcing the two to fly into the black 
hole.  The 4 Saiyajins follow Cell into the black hole.  The hole closes, 
locking Goku and his friends into the Dark Kingdom.
"YOU FOOL!!!!!", Beryl screams angrily, "You shall pay for this 
treachery!"  Beryl lifts her arm into the air.
"WAIT!  NNNNNNNOOOOOOO!!!!!"  A large hole opens from under Cell's body.  
Then, a massive blast of lava consumes Cell and instantly evaporates him.
"Holy...", Trunks starts.
"Thus is the fate of those who dare defy Queen Beryl.", Beryl interrupts, 
"Hmm... I sense a strong power emanating from you four.  It's stronger 
than the power I have felt in other worlds.  Join my tournament."
Goku continues to contemplate his current situation.  "Where the heck are 
we?  Tournament?  What tournament?"
"Forget your tournament!", Vegita exclaims, "We don't play that game!  
Come on guys, let's go."
Beryl giggles, "I wasn't asking you to join.  You four have no choice but 
to join."
"And if we refuse?", an angry Piccolo inquires.
"Then you die, and I take your world.  Simple.", Beryl states.
Goku thinks for a moment.  This tournament could help Goku and his 
friends to become more powerful warriors.  Also, no other lands will be 
harmed by this evil creature anymore.  But, Beryl has shown her power, 
the chance of death is very real indeed.  What to do...
"Well Goku-san?", Trunks asks," Are we going to join or what?"
Son Goku raises his head high.  "We're joining your tournament Beryl.  
Once we destroy you, then...
"IF you destroy me", Beryl interrupts Goku, "then you shall be set free.  
I shall leave you now.   Oh, one more thing.  This tournament is three on 
three, which means that there is one too many of you.  I'll leave the 
decision of who fights to you.  We shall see each other again... later."  
Queen Beryl suddenly disappears, leaving Goku and his friends alone.
"DAMN BERYL!  I'll show her!  I'll tear her apart!  I'll..."
"Trunks!  You're not fighting in this tournament.  I will not allow my 
son to get killed by that lunatic!  Stay behind.", Vegita, along with Son 
Goku and Piccolo walk away, leaving Trunks behind with his emotions.
An angry Trunks punches the stone wall.  A tear of frustration falls from 
his eye.  "Father... Why must you leave me?  Grrrrrr I'll show you too!  
I'll find some teammates and destroy Beryl!  Then you'll see!"  With 
newly found inspiration, Trunks heads off and searches for a team.
*****

"Zoicite!", Beryl calls one of her generals.  Zoicite appears in his 
usual way, with flower petals flying about, "You called my Queen."
"Yes.  I have grown weary from my travels to different dimensions.  From 
now on, I shall leave the recruiting to you.  Return with worthy 
opponents, ones that can defeat the Sailor Senshi."
"It shall be done my Queen."  Flower petals surround Zoicite, and then 
consume him.  In a room outside of Beryl's Chamber, Zoicite reappears, 
thinking of his next move.  "Hmm... Now's my chance to prove to Queen 
Beryl how worthy I am to be one of her Generals.  Kunzite shall be 
pleased.  But where to start?  Hmm...... Ah!  I got it!  I have recieved 
news of a powerful woman in space who can force her adversaries to fall 
into her influence!  I shall recruit her!  Queen Beryl will be so proud 
of me!  Hahahahaha..."  Zoicite suddenly disappears.

*****
A wonderful sound resounds throughout the city located deep within the 
walls of the SDF-1 Macross.  It is the sound of joyous singing.  And 
there is only one person who all of the citizens of the city look to...
"...Sore wa hajimete no ai no tabidachi deshita. I love you so!"  Lynn 
Minmay sings her famous song that helped rid Earth of the Zentradi 
threat, in a stadium at the center of the city.  Large spotlights 
brighten the skies with bluish and red tints.  The citizens of the 
Macross are all pleased and very happy to be alive.
Suddenly, a gaping hole opens up in a wall close to Minmay.  Zoicite 
steps out of it onto the stage.  There are many screams from the crowd, 
forcing Minmay to stop her song.  "What's wrong?"
"I presume that you are Lynn Minmay.", Zoicite says non-chalantly, "I 
have a proposition for you.  Fight in Queen Beryl's tournament, now."
"Tournament?", Minmay asks unsurely, "I don't want to fight.  I hate 
fighting!"
Zoicite becomes a little impatient.  "Look Minmay, it's not like I'm 
giving you a choice here.  You MUST come with me."
>From out of nowhere comes a VF-1S Strike Valkyrie, flying in with red and 
black trim, and a skull insignia on its tail wings.  It transforms to 
Battroid mode and has all 7 gun turrets aimed at Zoicite.
"HIKARU!  He... she... whatever he is is forcing me to join a tournament! 
 Help me!"
"What?  So, you want to bother Minmay huh?  Well then, TAKE THIS!!!"  The 
missiles bays on the Valkyrie open.  Hikaru punches in the target into 
the computer and pushes the launch button on his flight stick.  A large 
amount of smoke covers the VF-1S as 50 missiles are launched and aimed 
right at Zoicite.
"EEEEEEEEEE!"  Zoicite screams at the top of his lungs.  He jumps back 
into the black hole and attempts to close the portal.  From the Macross 
dimension, Hikaru watches intently as his missiles fly into the hole as 
it seals itself up.
"OH NO!"  Zoicite runs from the heat-seeking micro-missiles with all his 
might.  He leads the missiles into a long hallway.  Kunzite emerges from 
one of the rooms, "Ah Zoicite, I'm happy to see y..."
"KUNZITE!  RUN!!!!"
"AAAAHH!"  It seems that 25 of the missiles have found a new target to 
lock on to.  Kunzite flees into the a large ballroom as Zoicite continues 
to run through the hallway.
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!  I better do something quick!!!"  Kunzite jumps into 
the air.  He spins his body around and faces the missiles.  With a quick 
blast from his hands, the missiles explode in an awesome display of 
fireworks.  The blast blows Kunzite into a wall, punching a dent into it.
"Where should I go?  Where should I go?  Oh God, what do I do?"  Zoicite 
sees an open door and jumps into it.  What Zoicite didn't realize is that 
he has entered Queen Beryl's sleeping quarters.
"*snort*", Beryl suddenly awakens, "What's going on here!  What the..."  
Queen Beryl watches Zoicite run around her bedroom, trying to flee those 
missiles.  Queen Beryl yawns, points her finger at the leading missile, 
and blasts it, causing the other missiles to explode as well.  Zoicite is 
still running around the room with his eyes closed in hopes of not 
getting hit by one of those missiles.
"Zoicite.", Beryl sweetly says.  Zoicite continues to run around.  
"ZOICITE!"
Zoicite trips on the rug and falls, face first, into the floor.  "Yes my 
Queen?"
"Those missiles are gone.  Now... EXPLAIN TO ME WHERE THOSE DAMN MISSILES 
CAME FROM!!!!"
Zoicite jumps onto his feet and salutes Queen Beryl stiffly.  "Uh, those 
missiles were, uh... from... the Macross Dimension."
"SO?  Did you find anyone at the Macross Dimension???"
Fearing Queen Beryl's wrath, and also another round of missiles from 
Hikaru's Valkyrie, Zoicite answers, "No my Queen, there was no one worthy 
there."
"Hmm... very well.  Now leave my quarters at once.  I shall continue my 
slumber.  And Zoicite..."
"Yes my Queen."
"Don't fail me again.  Remember what I did to you last year when you 
failed me?"
"Yes my Queen."
"Good.  NOW GET OUT!!!!"  Queen Beryl throws a fireball at Zoicite.  
Zoicite quickly jumps out of the door, safe from harm.  He teleports to 
the portal room.
"I must not fail the Queen again!  I'll get more fighters for her 
tournament!  I'll show her!  Hmm..."  Zoicite stares into the Dimensional 
Portal, searching for new places to go. "Hey, that place looks good!  It 
seems like that blonde guy and his robot are about to destroy that other 
guy on a large floating saucer.  They'll do nicely."  Zoicite jumps into 
the portal.

*****
    Deep within the city of Bangor, many blood-curdling screams can be 
heard over the already deafening sounds of terrible explosions that are 
leveling the towering buildings.  The BeastMaster laughs as the people of 
Bangor run from his power.  The city's Guardian, Warlock, has been 
defeated in battle with the Beastmaster.  It seems that all hope is 
lost...
    "Itaru!  Keep the Beastmaster busy while I link up with the city."
    "But, Zaxon..."
    "GO!"
    Itaru readies his energy sword and leaves Zaxon.  Energy courses 
through Zaxon's mecha body as it links up to Warlock's memory banks.  
Meanwhile, Itaru and Beastmaster are locking horns...
    "BEASTMASTER!!!  You'll pay for killing Randis!"  Itaru's sword glows 
bright blue as he points the blade at the Beastmaster.
    "HAHAHAHA!  I remember you!  You are that boy from that broken down 
shack!  Come to challenge me huh?  OK then."
    "Aaaaahhhhh!!!"  Itaru runs at the Beastmaster at full speed.  He 
jumps and strikes at the Beastmaster.  The Beastmaster, the great 
swordsman that he is, blocks Itaru's attack without a problem.  Suddenly, 
a black hole appears in the sky above.
    "Hmm..."  Zoicite looks around Bangor, searching for fighters.  "Ah!  
Those guys over there look like strong fighters.  I'll wait over here 
until the fighting stops, then I'll ask."
    Itaru continues to swing his sword at the Beastmaster.  Strike after 
strike is easily blocked, and Itaru grows weary.
    "Killing you would be a waste of talent, join me and I shall make you 
an officer."
    "NEVER!!"  Itaru thrusts his sword at the Beastmaster's chest.  The 
attack is blocked, and both are at a stand still.
    "Itaru!!!"  A rail gun blast suddenly launches from the tower and 
hits the Beastmaster.
    "Sahari!"  Itaru is glad that she is helping him.
    "You little bitch!"  As the Beastmaster points at Sahari, a large 
robotic arm from the Beastmaster's ship comes out and grabs her.  Sahari 
screams in pain as the robotic hand tightens its grip.
    "STOP!  Your fight is with me!"  Itaru stands still, unsure of what 
to do.
    "HAHAHAHA!  Remember this, boy?  I shall kill her and you will be too 
scared to stop me!  HAHAHAHAHA!!!!"  As the grip grows even tighter, 
Sahari screams even louder.
    "Damn!  What do I do?"  As Itaru thinks, a large light comes down 
from the heavens and focuses on the tower.  Zaxon is standing inside the 
tower, energizing to full power.  He raises his sword and prepares to 
strike.
    "Itaru!  Get Sahari!"  Zaxon jumps up into the sky and begins to fall 
toward the Beastmaster.  Zaxon brings his sword down, only to be blocked 
by the Beastmaster's sword.
    "You are powerful indeed, War-roid."
    As the Beastmaster is distracted, Itaru gets Sahari from the robotic 
rm and brings her to safety.  Seeing that the chance to kill the 
Beastmaster is open, Itaru runs at the Beastmaster with his sword poised 
to kill.  Itaru jumps at the Beastmaster and swings his sword around.  
The Beastmaster's head is sliced off, indicating that Randis' death has 
been avenged.
    Zaxon and Itaru quickly jump back into the tower and watch the 
Beastmaster and his ship plummet to the ground and explode.  Sahari grabs 
Itaru and hugs him.  As the party feels proud of their accomplishment, a 
whirlwind of flower petals appear near them.  From the whirlwind then 
appears a man, er woman, er... Zoicite..
    "Well done.  All of you have shown great fighting skill.  Care to 
test them further in a tournament?"
    "What tournament?"  Itaru looks at Zoicite confused.
    "Queen Beryl is looking for strong fighters to compete in her 
tournament, and all of you qualify.  This tournament will make you 
stronger fighters as well as wealthy individuals."
    "REALLY?"  Itaru and Sahari simultaneously ask.
    "Hmm... then there is a chance that Beryl will know what my purpose 
on Gaiarth is."
    "Uhm..."  Zoicite thinks for a second, then lies to Zaxon, "Sure!  
Beryl knows everything!  She'll tell you your purpose!  Yeah, that's the 
ticket..."
    "Very well.  We shall go with you.  But first, I will need my 
original parts.  Without them, I will not do too well in this tournament."
    Zoicite thinks, "Hmm... if this robot becomes full strength by 
getting all of its parts back, then that would make it an even stronger 
fighter.  Beryl will be so proud of me!!"  Then Zoicite replies, "Yes, 
you can go get your original parts.  Uh, but where are they?"
    Suddenly, another voice enters the conversation.  "Try Volgard."
    "Fayk!"  Sahari is overwhelmed.
    Fayk walks in from the shadows.  "Yo, Sahari."
    "Why Volgard?", Itaru asks.
    "I've heard that there is a large archive there that holds the entire 
history of Gaiarth, including the War that happened 100 years ago.  I've 
also heard that they have the parts to the legendary War-Roid, Zaxon.  
And this Zaxon could be the very same one."
    "Well?  What are we waiting for??  Let's go to Volgard!"  Itaru jumps 
into the air, pleased with the news.
    The next day, Itaru, Sahari, Zaxon, Fayk, and Zoicite are in the 
desert on their mecha bipedal horses, heading for Volgard.
    "How much further?", Sahari complains.
    "It's not too far away.  We should hit Vol..."
    Itaru interrupts Fayk, "What's that??"
    A large fortress in the middle of the desert stands tall before the 
party.  Sahari drops her jaw in awe.
    Zoicite thinks to himself, "This isn't so big, Queen Beryl's castle 
is bigger."
    "I believe this is Volgard.", Fayk says confidently.
    "Let's go in!"  Itaru jumps off his horse and jogs to the large gate. 
 Zaxon, Fayk, Sahari, and Zoicite follow.
    As Itaru touches the door, a small red light appears from the 
shadows, then a voice follows, "Who are you?  What do you want?"
    "I am Itaru!"
    "Not you, boy!  I am talking to the War-roid behind you!"
    "My name is Zaxon.  I seek for my memory and parts."
    "D... Did you say... Zaxon?  Come in!  Come in!"  The large gates 
open up slowly, and Itaru's party walks inside.  A large War-roid greets 
the party and asks them to follow it.
    Minutes later, the party ends up in a large computer room.  Itaru 
stands amazed at the sight.  Suddenly, a strange looking man, sitting in 
the middle of the room, turns around and looks at Zaxon.  "So, you are 
Zaxon.  It has been a while."
    "You know who I am?"
    "Of course!  Every child on Gaiarth knows of the story of Zaxon.  I 
see that you are missing many of your original parts.  Please step over 
there."
    Zaxon walks over to a platform and stands.  Several arms holding 
War-roid parts spring out of the walls and on to Zaxon's body.  Within 
minutes, Zaxon's body is complete.
    "Alright!  Zaxon is whole again!"  Itaru runs to Zaxon and gives him 
a high-five.
    "Wait.  What about my memory?"
    "Oh yes, your memory.  Please come here and plug this access cord 
into your chest"  The strange man holds up a cord, beckoning Zaxon to 
come.
    A scream is heard from far away, "ZAXON!  I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR 
YOUR RETURN!  NOW IT IS TIME TO FIGHT!!!!"
    A man in red armor emerges from the large gate and into the computer 
room.  He unsheathes his sword and energizes it.
    "Who are you?", Zaxon asks.
    "WHAT?  You don't even recognize your own partner??"  The man in red 
armor grows furious.
    The strange man in the middle of the room yells, "It can't be!  
Barbarossa!"
    "Barbarossa?  That name rings a bell."  Zaxon stands for a minute and 
thinks.
    "I shall destroy you Zaxon, for I have the Grand Slayber!"
    "The Grand Slayber?", Fayk asks in surprise.  "The Grand Slayber was 
last known to be in the hands of the Queen of the traveling city!"
    "Not anymore!", Barbarossa laughs.  "It is mine now, and I shall use 
your own weapon against you, Zaxon!!"
    Zaxons unsheathes his Powered Claymore.  Barbarossa takes out the 
Grand Slayber.  A large energy blade comes out from it.
    Knowing the power of the Grand Slayber, the strange man shouts, 
"EVERYONE!  DUCK!"
    Itaru and his friends hit the dirt.  Zoicite disappears and 
repositions himself above Barbarossa.  "Hmm... This one is a strong 
fighter as well.  What if I recruit him too?"
    Barbarossa swings the Grand Slayber in hopes of killing something.  
Barbarossa is only successful in destroying the entire archives.
    "OH NO!  Hundreds of years of history... GONE!!!"  The strange man 
dies from an electrical surge from the archives.
    As Barbarossa reels back from the power of the blade, Zaxon charges 
at him and stabs him with his sword.  Barbarossa screams, 
"NNNNNOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"  Zaxon grabs the Grand Slayber and retracts the 
blade.  He jumps away and watches Barbarossa explode.
    Zoicite snaps his fingers, "Damn!  There goes yet another strong 
fighter for me to recruit.  Oh well, at least this robot and his friends 
are still alive."
    "Zaxon!  You did it!  You destroyed Barbarossa!"
    "Yes, but Barbarossa destroyed the archives.  I will not get my 
memory back."
    "Yes you will, Queen Beryl will get it back for you."  Zoicite 
decides to open a black hole.  "Come on in!  I'll bring you to her."
    The party agrees and everyone walks into the black hole.  The hole 
closes from the Gaiarth dimension and opens at the Dark Kingdom.
    "Ah.  Welcome back Zoicite.  I trust that these are your new 
recruits?"  Queen Beryl greets Zoicite.
    "Yes my Queen.  These are very powerful fighters, they'll do well in 
your tournament."
    "Excellent!  Now that I see that there are only 3 of you, this shall 
work out."
    "Three of us?"  Sahari looks around the room.  "Where's Fayk?"
    "Who?  Anyway, this is a 3-on-3 tournament.  The winner of the entire 
tournament gets to challenge me.  The losers... well, let's not worry 
about them.  For now, I shall let you rest and prepare for the 
tournament."  Queen Beryl raises her hand, making Itaru, Sahari, and 
Zaxon disappear from the room.  Beryl continues to speak with Zoicite, 
"You did well Zoicite.  This team seems very apt to destroy the Sailor 
Senshi."
    "Thank you my Queen."
    "Go summon Kunzite.  After that, you make take a rest."
    "Yes my Queen."  Zoicite disappears.  Shortly after, Kunzite appears 
in front of Queen Beryl.
    "You called my Queen?"
    "Yes.  I have a task for you."
    As Queen Beryl and Kunzite talk, a man is sitting behind a pillar 
listening to their conversation.  "Hmm... so that's what's going on in 
this tournament.  I better do a little more snooping around."  The man 
quickly leaves the room without being seen.

*****
In yet another Tokyo...
"Michiru, let's stay inside tonight.  I just want to relax and enjoy the 
silence."
"But Haruka, we were supposed to go with Setsuna and Hotaru to dinner 
tonight, remember?"
"I don't feel like eating out tonight.  Just wait here while I tell 
Setsuna."
Haruka rises from the couch and walks into the living room.  "<Yawn>I'm a 
bit tired tonight, so can we have di... What the?  MICHIRU!  Come in here 
QUICK!"
Michiru jumps off of the couch and runs into the living room next to 
Haruka.  "Huh?  What's going on?"
In the middle of the room is Hotaru, shooting beams of light from her 
body.  Setsuna is seen sitting on the couch resting her elbows on her 
knees, staring in awe.
"The princess is in danger", Hotaru says slowly.
"Princess?", Setsuna asks, "Who?"
The room becomes black.  The trio continue to watch Hotaru as she 
continues her prophesy.
"A terrible battle is about to take place.  Many people from other lands 
will be involved, but are fighting for a common good.  The battlefield is 
a cold place, full of evil and suffering.  Many will join the fight, but 
only a few will live long enough to battle the source."
"Then what happens?", Setsuna asks curiously.
A strange image of a girl with long blonde hair wearing a fuku similar to 
what the Outer Senshi wear, holding a large scepter appears behind 
Hotaru.  That image fades and shows an image of the same girl, only this 
time she is badly wounded and is surrounded by a never-ending darkness.  
"Co... could it be?", Setsuna whispers to herself.
The beams of light surrounding Hotaru disappear.  Her body collapses to 
the ground.  Haruka jumps over the couch and lands next to Hotaru's body. 
 Haruka puts her hands on Hotaru's shoulders and starts to shake her.  
"Hotaru!", Haruka screams, "Wake up!  Hotaru!"  Hotaru's eyes open 
slowly.  "Sailor................ m........", Hotaru falls unconscious.  
Haruka continues to shake her.
"Stop that!", Setsuna commands, "Hotaru is tired and needs some rest, but 
she won't get any if you keep shaking her like that."  Haruka picks up 
Hotaru's body and places it on the couch.  "Well?", she asks, "You seem 
to know something that we dont, so tell us."
Setsuna sits in the love seat across the room..  She brushes her long 
green hair back with her hand and takes a deep breath.  "You really want 
to know what's up?  OK then, I'll tell you all about it..."  Michiru 
takes a seat on the couch next to Hotaru while Haruka rests against the 
wall with her arms crossed.

*****
Meanwhile, at Queen Beryl's quarters...
"What?  There are more Sailor Senshi?  Where?"
"They are in another dimension my Queen.", Kunzite answers.
"Hmm... maybe we should let them join the tournament as well...  Kunzite, 
return with these other Sailor Senshi.  They might prove useful..."
"It shall be done my Queen.", Kunzite vanishes instantly.

*****
Back in Tokyo...
"Do you know of Sailor Moon?", Setsuna asks.
"Who?", Haruka unsurely replies.
"Just as I thought, you are not supposed to know of Sailor Moon because 
she does not exist in our dimension.  About a year ago, Sailor Moon, 
Sailor Mercury, Sailor Mars, Sailor Jupiter, and Sailor Venus; The Sailor 
Senshi, engaged in the final battle with Queen Beryl.  Queen Beryl proved 
to be more powerful than Sailor Moon, and thus destroyed her and her 
companions."
"Wait a minute," Haruka interrupts, "WE are the Sailor Senshi."
"You are half right.", Setsuna continues, "Since Sailor Moon does not 
exist in our dimension, we are the Sailor Senshi... of THIS dimension."  
Setsuna stares at a resting Hotaru. "Hotaru showed us just a minute ago 
that Sailor Moon is currently in an evil world known as the Dark Kingdom. 
 It seems that the battle Hotaru spoke of is taking place there.  We must 
get to the Dark Kingdom and aid Sailor Moon."
"How do you know all this?", Michiru asks.
"Remember that I am Sailor Pluto, the Keeper of the Gate of Time.  I know 
many things..."  A weak voice interrupts her, "...and also remember who 
showed you Sailor Moon's whereabouts..."
"Hotaru!", Setsuna jumps off of the love seat and kneels by her side. 
"Are you OK now?"  Hotaru's big purple eyes open slowly.  "I'm... 
so...... tired.  Let me sleep."  Haruka lifts Hotaru off of the couch and 
carries her to her room.  Michiru and Setsuna continue the conversation.  
"So what are we going to do?  How are we going to save this Sailor Moon?" 
 Setsuna puts her hand to her chin and thinks, "Hmm... We could try to 
teleport into their dimension, but that seems too difficult."  Michiru 
sits back in the couch and closes her eyes.  She opens them again and 
excitedly yells, "I've got it!  I know ho..."
Suddenly, a black hole opens up in the middle of the room.  A handsome 
man with long white hair steps out and looks around the room.  He thinks 
to himself, "Hmm... where are the Sailor Senshi?  I must find them for 
Queen Beryl."
Setsuna jumps to her feet and pulls out her transformation stick.  
Michiru does the same.
"I don't know who you are, but no one steps into my house unannounced!  
PLUTO PLANET POWER!!!!!!!  MAKE UP!!!"
"NEPTUNE PLANET POWER!!!!!!! MAKE UP!!!"
Setsuna and Michiru transform into Sailor Pluto and Sailor Neptune 
respectively.  Sailor Pluto puts the end of her staff up to Kunzite's 
neck.  "Who sent you?", Sailor Pluto impatiently asks, "What are you 
doing here?"  Sailor Neptune gets ready to use her Deep Submerging attack.
Knowing that he is pinned down with no means of escape, Kunzite answers 
her questions, "My name is Kunzite.  I have been sent here by Queen Beryl 
to find the other Sailor Senshi.  I believe that I have found you."
"Why?  Why are we so important to Queen Beryl?", Sailor Neptune begins to 
charge up her attack.  Sailor Pluto applies more pressure on Kunzite's 
neck.
"<ERK> Queen Beryl wants you to fight in her tournament.", Kunzite 
explains.
"Tournament huh?", fully charged, Sailor Neptune begins to release her 
power.  "DEEP...."
"Neptune!  Wait!", Sailor Pluto stops Sailor Neptune from making a big 
mistake, "We should agree to join this tournament, right Neptune?" Sailor 
Pluto gives Neptune a wink.
"Ohhh.  Yes, let us join this tournament."
"I'm joining too.", Sailor Uranus steps into the room adjusting her 
gloves, "This'll be fun."
Kunzite sighs in relief, "Ah, this was easier than I thought.  Anyway, 
please step into the dimensional hole and meet the Queen.  She's anxious 
to meet you."
"Wait a minute.", Neptune stops, "What about Sailor Saturn?"
Sailor Uranus puts her hand on Neptune's shoulder, "She's taking a nap.  
I don't think she should be fighting now."
Impatient, Kunzite tells them, "Come on come on, 3 is enough, step inside 
already!"
"OK OK!  We're coming."  Kunzite and the 3 Sailor Senshi step inside the 
hole.  Just before the hole closes, something else entered the 
dimensional hole.
The 3 Sailor Senshi appear with Kunzite inside Queen Beryl's Throne Room. 
 Queen Beryl seems pleased.  "Good work Kunzite.  You shall be rewarded 
later.  But for now, please leave, as I have matters to discuss with our 
guests."
"Yes my Queen."  Kunzite bows and vanishes.
"We are here Beryl, now where is Sailor Moon!", Pluto demands.
"You shall see her in due time.  But for now, I shall brief you on the 
rules of this tournament.  The battles are 3 on 3.  The winners of the 
match will advance in the tournament.  The losers... well, let's just say 
that their fate hasn't been decided just yet.  If you can survive the 
entire tournament, then you shall face me in glorious combat."
Uranus puts her fist into the air, "ANYTIME!  ANYPLACE!  You call the 
challenge, and we'll be there!"
"Excellent.  I'm glad that you see things my way."  Queen Beryl waves her 
hand and the 3 Sailor Senshi end up in another part of the Dark Kingdom.  
Suddenly, Queen Beryl's image appears in the sky.  "You'll see your 
precious Sailor Moon soon.  But for now, just take a break."  The image 
disappears.
"Come on, let's explore this place and see if we can find Sailor Moon 
ourselves.", Sailor Pluto, Sailor Uranus, and Sailor Neptune begin their 
search for the princess...

*****
    Se Himiko, a spiritualist, walks down a street at night in Tokyo.  
The streets are empty, leaving Himiko with her thoughts.
    Himiko puts her hand to her neck, "I can't believe it.  Miyu bit me 
when I was a child, and now I'm going to become a Vampire?  Oh god, what 
do I do?"
    Himiko feels someone's hand press against her shoulder.  She quickly 
turns around and sees a handsome man with long, white hair, standing 
before her.  "Are you Se Himiko?", he asks.
    "Yes.  Who are you?"
    "My name is Kunzite.  I have come here searching for fighters in a 
tournament.  I watched as you defeated that large suit of armor, and now 
I wish to recruit you."
    "What??"  Himiko breaks away from Kunzite's grasp and starts to run.  
As she turns a corner, she runs into someone.
    "Oh, sor...  What the?"  Himiko sees Kunzite again standing in front 
of her, blocking her means of escape.
    "Hehehe", Kunzite chuckles, "You really have no choice.  You must 
fight."
    Suddenly, a sharp stream of flames hit Kunzite, wounding him.  A 
masked figure wearing all black jumps in front of Himiko, defending her.
    "TUXEDO KAMEN-SAMA!!!"  Himiko looks again with disappointment,  "Oh, 
it's only you Larva."
    Larva looks at Himiko and scratches his head, then he proceeds to 
attack Kunzite with a blaze of sharp flames and whips.  A beautiful 
little girl steps in from the shadows and says, "Hello Himiko."
    "Miyu!  What are you doing here?"
    "Rescuing you, what else?"  Miyu gives Himiko a smile.
    Larva grabs the injured Kunzite and brings him to Miyu's feet.  Miyu 
looks down at him and says, "You are too much for us sir, you better 
leave before you hurt us even more."  Miyu starts to giggle.
    Kunzite looks up at Miyu and says, "You... shall pay.. <URK!>.. for 
this..."  Kunzite waves his hand, and a black hole emerges from under 
Miyu, Larva, and himself.  Himiko jumps away as Miyu, Kunzite, and Larva 
fall into the hole.  The hole closes, locking Miyu away from her own 
dimension.  The hole reopens from the ceiling of Queen Beryl's throne 
room.  Kunzite is seen falling from it and crashing onto the floor.  Miyu 
and Larva float down gracefully from the hole and softly land on their 
feet.
    "Well done Kunzite!  You have brought in more fighters!  I am 
pleased."
    "Th...thank you... <OW!> ... my queen."
    "You may go now."  Queen Beryl raises her hand, and Kunzite 
disappears from the room.
    "You are pretty strong.  Not many humans can defeat my generals, but 
you did it with ease."
    "That is because we are not human.  I am a Vampire and Larva is a 
Shinma."
    "I see.  Well, no matter, whatever you are, you shall be in my 
tournament.  The tournament is three-on-three, which means that you are 
one short.  I will not let you participate until you get a third member."
    "What if we don't find a third member?"  Miyu innocently asks.
    "Then I encase you in ice.  Fair enough?"
    "Sure.  That's fair.  We shall return with a third member and..."  
Suddenly, the large door leading into Queen Beryl's Throne room opens.  A 
teenager with purple hair and a sword walks in.
    "You again?"  Queen Beryl looks on in surprise.
    "I am Trunks.  I shall be the third Member.  I have seen your power, 
Miyu, and wish to join you."
    "Mmm", Miyu thinks to herself, "This guy is pretty cute.  His blood 
must be extremely delicious."  Then Miyu replies, "Very well.  You shall 
be the third member."  Miyu proceeds to lick her lips.
    "Now that that is over, I shall let you all rest until the tournament 
begins."  Queen Beryl waves her hand and makes Miyu and her team 
disappear.  "Hmm... With all of these new fighters, I shall have the 
tournament start soon... HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"

*****
    "OW!  Be more careful Zoicite!"  Kunzite yells in pain as Zoicite 
tries to heal his wounds from his previous battle with Larva.
    "Oh, you're supposed to be Beryl's strongest General, yet you can't 
even take a little alcohol."  Zoicite pours some rubbing alcohol on a 
cotton bud and applies it on Kunzite's wounds.  Kunzite continues to 
scream.
    Meanwhile, in Queen Beryl's Throne room, the Queen is sitting, 
contemplating her next move.  "Hmm... Kunzite is injured, Zoicite is 
tending his wounds, who shall I send to recruit more fighters..."  Beryl 
taps her finger on the arm of her throne.  "Ah-ha!  I'll go get more 
recruits!  But where should I go?"

*****
    In Tokyo, three teenagers are fighting a group of demons.  There 
seems to be a dominating party.
    "REI GUN!" Yuusuke points his finger at two demons.  A burst of 
energy is launched, completely vaporizing its targets.  Two more demons 
fall to the ground as Kuwabara swings his swords.
    "I think we are done here."  Hiei sheathes his sword.  Suddenly, the 
sky opens and reveals a woman with long red hair and an evil look in her 
eyes.
    "Hmm... I sense strong power here.  But whe... Ah!  There they are!  
3 new fighters for my tournament."  Queen Beryl teleports behind Yuusuke 
and taps him on the shoulder. "Excuse me, but you're going to join my 
tournament."
    Yuusuke turns around and winces at the sight before him.  "Heh, I 
didn't think women could become as ugly as you."
    Beryl's eyes grow large and enraged.  "WH... WHAT DID YOU SAY?????"  
Beryl points her palm at Yuusuke and fires a blast.  Yuusuke quickly 
dodged the attack and back-flipped to a more even stand point.  Yuusuke 
screams, "REI GUN!" and throws a blast of Spirit energy at her.  She 
quickly teleports to a safer spot and giggles.
    Yuusuke points his hand at Beryl. "Who are you and what the hell do 
you want?"  Kuwabara runs next to Yuusuke.  Two large swords grow from 
his hands.  Hiei watches from a distance and waits for the perfect time 
to strike.
    "I am Queen Beryl, and you shall be joining my tournament."  Queen 
Beryl raises her arm into the air.  Suddenly, a large black hole appears 
behind Yuusuke and Kuwabara.  Beryl quickly pushes the two inside the 
hole with a blast of wind from her hand.
    "What the?  I'll get you!!!"  Hiei charges at Beryl with his sword in 
both hands, poised to strike.  Beryl simply points the palm of her hand 
at him and blasts him into the hole along with his companions.
    "Heh, you'll soon pay for your insults, but your powers may prove 
useful..."  The black hole disappears along with Queen Beryl, separating 
this Tokyo with the Dark Kingdom.
    At Beryl's throne room, the black hole reappears and drops Yuusuke, 
Kuwabara, and Hiei onto the ground.  Beryl rematerializes in front of the 
disoriented party and laughs.
    "Heh, you don't need to know the rules, because you'll all die 
quickly in this tournament!  HAHAHAHAHA!"  Beryl waves her arm in the 
air.  The party disappears from her sight.  "Hehehehe, you all shall pay, 
especially you, Yuusuke."

*****
     The goddesses looked around and saw that large circular crystals
similar to portholes appeared. Inside each crystal was a team of three
fighters.  The crystals themselves had formed a circular formation.  Beryl
appeared suddenly in the middle of the formation.
	"Welcome," she bellowed, "to my team tournament.  
I hope that you had enjoyed yourselves.  The rules are simple.  Two
teams will fight each other in some world until one team is 
eliminated.  That team will return here.  The losing team will forever
be preserved in crystal unless I feel like freeing you.  The team
