Silent Days or why we had the Silence.

Neo-Queen Serenity looked out on the city she ruled and
sighed. Beside
her was her beloved husband Endymion. Who looked at her and
said
"Remembering the good old days, Sweetheart?"
"No the bad old days off the Silence, I just don't
understand how we
could fall for such an obvious trap."
"That's hindsight Dear, it wasn't so obvious when it
happened."
"Thank Kami-Sama for Morpheus and his crew of Valiants. If
not for
them who knows how long it would have taken for us to
Awaken.? Who knows
what other horrors we would have had to live through, the
way they
kept modifying our memories. Like the time they had us
believing you had a
sister and she was Sailor Terra or when we thought that
college girl
was Sailor Pluto."
"Hush Usako, it is all over and the Matrix is finally gone.
The last
victims of it, those who wouldn't give it up; died tonight."
" I know; and I will have to do something with the addicts
too. I
suppose I'll send them to another planet, there are just
too many important things
to do with the computing power of those Neo-Computers to
recreate the
Matrix for a vacation spot. The way those fanatics want,
they'll just have to
learn to live in the real world permanently and I don't
think they can
do so if they have access to even a limited Matrix or
Silence as they are
calling it now."
"Where are you going to send them?" asked Endymion
" That new planet, Nemesis, out past Pluto. The Silver
Millennium
environmental transformers are still intact, so it has a
livable
climate." replied Serenity.
" Let's go to bed, my love and not just stand here thinking
about
people, we can't change."
"In a minute, I am trying to remember why that name Nemesis,
seems so
familiar."
"You know our memories are spotty about our early lives, we
don't even
remember our original names in this life. All that was
erased by the
Agents of the machines. We know I was Endymion and you were
Serenity and the
others are the Senshi, Sailormercury, Venus, Mars etc. That
took Neo
by surprise as it was, he didn't believe in magic outside of
the
Silence."
" Now come on and relax, what will be will be, the future is
not ours
to see."
The Moral of this story is Those who don't learn from the
past are doomed to repeat it.
The End
I though about what the Silence or the disaster between our
time and
the
creation of Crystal Tokyo, might be. Then I saw the movie
Matrix and
wrote this as a look back and an explanation as to why
Neo-Queen
Serenity would send her trouble makers to Nemesis. when
Sailor Moon
had
already met the Black Moon. I hope you like it.

"I guess I'm just an old-fashioned sentimentalist at heart.
I refuse
to accept a no-win scenario. I hate the thought of a
universe
without
justice. If the maneuverings of dark powers can't be
exposed and
defeated by the pure of heart, then there's no point in
anything. I
can't believe that."
