Establishing Shot:  The solar system, from a great distance.  Mercury 
seems to whip around the Sun at an insane rate, and even Jupiter is moving 
swiftly.

                              (Queen Serenity)
                    Much of the story you already know.
                    Life arose from Earth, and, in the
                    days after the passing over the sea,
                    spread out among the planets of the
                    Solar System.  In time, the Silver
                    Millenium alliance was declared, and
                    the children of the many worlds came
                    to live under its peace for nigh a
                    thousand years.  

Our perspective slowly starts to move towards Jupiter, and increases its 
speed rapidly over the next line.

                                   NARRATOR
                    But perhaps ... you don't know the
                    whole story.  

We see that a mighty space battle is taking place around Jupiter and its 
moons, and that our point of view is headed right into the thick of the 
fighting.  

Like a machine gun, images flash across the screen, under a relentless 
beat of synthesized sounds.  

- TENCHI's head rears up from the groundd, looking startled.  

- An orange-haired woman with thick glassses, (QUEEN ASTARTE) wearing an 
elaborate dress and a crown, watches in horror as a shadow passes over her 
while she stands in a hallway.  

- A village is burning, and a short man  with a long spear is watching it. 
We see him from behind.  

- PRINCESS OYUKI of Neptune sits in a roobe and watches something off-stage 
with the slightest of frowns.  

- A pair of energy blades -- one a dark  red, one a brilliant yellow -- 
cross.  We pull back to see that the combatants are RYOUKO (who is scared 
out of her wits) and a woman who looks like a younger version of WASHUU's 
older form (CALLISTRA SKYWALKER).  CALLISTRA's face is clenched in anger 
and hatred.  

- A small girl with jet black hair lookss up from where she is standing in 
a garden, and as her hair turns bright golden, she screams -- and a little 
girl who looks like Sasami jerks back.  

- A woman with dusky skin and firey red  hair (ANHUR KHAN) holds a hand 
filled with flames the same colour as the flames burning the town earlier.  

- A statuesque woman with auburn hair, ddressed in a green gown (PRINCESS 
JUNO) angrily shakes a fist at a tall, almost ethereal man with white blue 
hair in a black cloak (LORD VULCAN) who regards her with indifference even 
when sparks start to fly from the fist.  

[And now, the synthesized violin music of the main Gall Force theme 
begins.]  

- An eye blinks open, and dilates, and wwe pull back as, immersed in a vat 
filled with liquid, RABBY of the Solenoid fleet screams.  

Cut to black.

                    It was not the beginning, nor even
                    even the end of the beginning.  It
                    was simply a moment in time.  But
                    life ... even the life of a species
                    ... is a collection of moments.
                    BEAT But it was a moment on which
                    all the other moments would rest ...
                    or fall completely.  

Giant white letters illuminate the screen, pulling back as they do.

                                  SAILOR MOON  

We see QUEEN SERENITY on her throne, looking pensive.

                                 TENCHI MUYOU  

TENCHI, with RYOUKO and AYEKA on either side of him, and MIHOSHI and 
KIYONE nearby, prepares to charge towards something.

                                URUSEI YATSURA  

We see the man with the spear from the front this time -- his face is set in 
a mask of anger, and two reddish black marks ban be seen above and below his 
eyes, on both sides of his face.  He looks like Ataru Moroboshi.

                                  GALL FORCE  

RABBY is seated in a command chair ... and slowly starts to smile.

                                   STAR WARS  

CALLISTRA SKYWALKER's hand crackles with lightning for a moment -- and 
then she realizes it, and you've never seen a more startled face.  

Fade to black.

                    It was not the first time that the
                    Saga of the Defender had intersected
                    with the tale of the Solenoid people
                    and the history of the Silver
                    Millenium ... nor would it be the
                    last.  BEAT  But I believe that it
                    was the greatest.
