The white-clad figure stood on the surface of the moon. He looked down at the planet Earth and smirked. In the future, he and his followers had almost conquered the planet. His victory was inevitable now. Only one obstacle remained.

  The creature appeared behind him.

  “Droid. Have you captured your prey?”

  The droid screeched a quiet, mournful sound. A flash of anger rocked the white-clad figure.

  “Escaped? That is unacceptable!”

  A dark energy erupted from his hands and obliterated a nearby rock formation. He turned to face his creature.

  “You will return to Earth and bring me the child! We cannot allow her to alter history. If you fail, I will…deactivate you myself.”

  The droid recoiled, then nodded and disappeared.

  Left alone, he turned to face Earth once more. The droid may not be up to the task, after all. It and its brethren were ingenious inventions, but they were poor substitutes for living, breathing beings.

  Perhaps it was time to bring the others to the past. Together, they would capture the child and prevent the return of the Sailor Guardians.

  Then nothing will stop the Black Moon Clan.

  ...to be continued.
