Black Moon Clan

On a perfectly ordinary day in November, Mamoru Chiba had a bit of a get-together, a to celebrate his new apartment building - and new apartment - being officially habitable. It stopped being a perfectly ordinary day when a pink-haired little girl fell from the sky, declared herself Usagi Tsukino, and demanded the Silver Crystal.

A month later, a new enemy followed her to Tokyo. They are the Black Moon Clan, and they want nothing more than to destroy the future that another world's Sailor Moon built.

The over-arching plot page, for everything to do with the appearance of the Black Moon Clan in modern Tokyo.

Drive-by Prince-down	November 27th, 2024	Eudial decides to take Mamoru's heart crystal in front of... well... everyone. And they have opinions about this. Not since Beryl has there been a red-head who was struck with such raw, primal hatred and rage.
Rabbit Hunting Season	December 6th, 2024	On Makoto's birthday of all days, the Black Moon Clan finally arrives in Tokyo. Star Devil, Sailor Charon, Sailor Moon, Sailor Jupiter, and Tuxedo Kamen risk it all to keep Chibiusa from the cruel clutches of Crimson Rubeus and the Spectre Sisters. And they win. Even if they're aching.
A Good Old Smash And Grab	December 15th, 2024	Koan of the Black Moon Clan's having fun rediscovering crime when her shopping trip is interrupted by a whole host of Mahou. It's all fun and games though - at least until Amy takes on her Senshi disguise, and Koan erupts in rage. The Senshi are her enemies?! But why?
A Plan to Get Intel	December 15th, 2024	Veronica comes to Usagi after her encounter with Koan at the mall, wanting to get answers, share information, and offer a plan of her own - to disguise herself as one of the Senshi, so she can provoke information out of those scoundrels! Despite her concerns, Usagi agrees with Veronica's plan, and Sailor Mars II is born.
Rabbit Hunt, Take Two	January 8th, 2025	It's field trip day for the Radiant Heart Elementary students, and three of the classes are here at the Fire Museum in Shinjuku, with chaperones Usagi, Mamoru, Amy, Veronica, and Tamaki, in place to make sure Chibiusa is safe! Unfortunately, Koan's there too. Even more unfortunately? This is not the year 1994. Looks like the Black Moon Clan has finally learned that they're in the wrong one.

Black Moon Swing, Black Moon Strike	January 16th, 2025	It's a Yomiuri Giants vs Hanshin Tigers game at the Tokyo Dome, but when the Giants lose, Petz and Calaveras throw a fit.

Wrong Time, Wrong Place	January 22nd, 2025	It's a normal day at Game Center Crown, and he is a horrible Rubeus.

Many shenanigans occur, and she learns that shockingly, it was an evil guy this time. At least they'll always have the ball pit.
Murder, She Wrote	January 30th, 2025	Having learned that the Senshi can surrender to Dark Energy, given incentive and exposure, it's the Black Moon Clan's intent to grind their spirits into the darkness. Koan is the first to try, targetting Shingo Tsukino's best friend, Junichi Nomura, because in another timeline, a thousand years away, he's an important ally to the ruling family of Crystal Tokyo. Mamoru and Hotaru make sure her attempted murder remains only an attempt. Kunzite, Jadeite, Hope Concept, Amy, and Sailor Moon ensure she can never try again. And yet - darkness *was* in play.

Unfortunately for her, Berthier of the Black Moon Clan is on the attack. In the chaos that follows, Koji, Amy, Usagi, Mamoru, Catra, and Norie give it their all - but while they're relieved to see Ice Water Berthier fall, Norie's father, Ken Okana, falls before she does. Catra swipes Chibiusa out from under her parents, driven to carry the Smol Princess from the scene of such terrible violence, and Koji risks his life - and his guts - to keep the civilians safe. CW: Graphic Description of Violence, NPC Death.
Texts: I know you're a cat right now	February 6th, 2025	After 2304/Politics are a Cold Game, Usagi texts Veronica, who replies from her space in the cafe using a web host for her number's messaging app.
Texts: um, in front of her	February 6th, 2025	As she and Mamoru funnel energy into Koji to heal his devastating injury from Scene 2304/Politics are a Cold Game, Usagi uses her free hand to text Rashmi. After all, Norie is going to need the help of a friend, right about now.
Borrowing Without Asking	February 7th, 2025	Catra has kidnapped a princess. Except that this is the future moon princess Chibiusa Tsukino. Also actually this kidnapping was really more of a rescue without telling anyone. Midway through lunch, Mamoru and Usagi show up to reclaim their daughter.

Something's Got To Give	March 6th, 2025	After 2391/Get_the_Body_Off_the_Floor, the mahoujin who need to decompress in company and want to talk about it are invited to Mamoru's apartment. There's a lot of food.
Jinja Snaps	March 6th, 2025	Calaveras of the Black Moon Clan attacks Hikawa Shrine on the same day the Senshi Cohort (and friends!) are planning a studdy day.

Maidenless Behavior	March 15th, 2025	The Black Moon Clan are ready to make good on their threats against Usagi's family - with a trio of droids, meant to kill and replace them. Luckily, the Tsukinos aren't home alone... and a pitched battle ensues, between the Droid copies, Crimson Rubeus, the revived Spectre Sisters - and the Mahoujin who call Sailor Moon their friend.

And while the fight goes on? The genius Entrapta befriends an evil robot boy. It's a good thing programming can be rewritten, huh? Entrapta, Princess of Dril, will have plenty of new magitech to work with after all this is said and done.
Death of a Bachelor	March 15th, 2025	Trapped in Moon Space with the heroes - those who battled through Scene 2405/Maidenless Behavior and those who arrive as reinforcements - Crimson Rubeus gives it his all. It's just that against these mahoujin, his best is simply not enough. The Dark General who's commanded the Black Moon Clan's feats of terror finally falls, and our heroes, though greatly injured, know victory once more!
