Moon Kittens Theme Song
"Guardians of Mau"
In the shadows of the night,
Where the moon's soft glow ignites,
Moon kittens rise to defend,
Their mission is clear until the end.
Comet, known as Sailor Frost,
Her icy powers have never lost.
Impact Knight, Asteroid is bold,
Protects with strength, a warrior's hold.
We are the guardians of Mau,
In the light or darkest hour.
Together, we stand strong and true,
For justice, we'll see it through.
Diana, Sailor Huntress, agile and keen,
In moonlit forests, she's unseen.
Rose, as Sailor Daybreak, greets the dawn,
With warmth and hope, the night has withdrawn.
:
Quartz, Tuxedo Smoke, a charming guise,
Protecting with grace under moonlit skies.
Elizabeth, Sailor Nightfall, shadows fall,
Guarding secrets, answering the call.
We are the guardians of Mau,
In the light or darkest hour.
Together, we stand strong and true,
For justice, we'll see it through.
Moonlit courage, hearts aflame,
Guiding Mau, our sacred claim.
With Luna and Artemis, we unite,
For our home and what is right.
We are the guardians of Mau,
In the light or darkest hour.
Together, we stand strong and true,
For justice, we'll see it through.
Moon kittens, heroes as one,
Beneath the moon, our journey has begun.
For Mau's future, bright and clear,
In our hearts, forever near.
Just beyond Earth’s Solar System lies a captivating world called Mau, covered in lush green grass, turquoise oceans, and blue skies. Its main continent is shaped like a cat’s paw, with smaller lands resembling feline parts. Every feline born on Mau can speak, think like a human, and even transform into one. For millennia, Mau and the Moon Kingdom maintained a close alliance.
When the Moon Kingdom fell, so did Mau, further devastated by Sailor Galaxia. But with Neo Queen Serenity’s ascension, the Silver Crystal’s life-giving rays restored countless worlds—including Mau.
In a gleaming alabaster palace, Queen Belle of Mau sat on her silver throne. Unlike her subjects, who could choose cat or human form, she remained in a mid-morph state. Her blush-pink hair flowed like a gentle breeze, accenting golden fur and delicate freckles beneath striking heterochromatic eyes—one blue, one gold. A long, silky tail completed her regal appearance, along with a golden diadem and silk gown adorned with fuchsia blossoms.
The vast doors opened to reveal a young girl, Suzu, mid-morph like the Queen. She shared Queen Belle’s features and bushy tail, but inherited her father’s blue-violet braided pigtails, human skin, and normal ears. She wore a cyan gown reminiscent of Anastasia’s opera dress, golden medallion, and ruby earrings.
“Greetings, Mother. How may I serve thee?” Suzu asked.
“I have an important request for my little kitten,” Queen Belle began.
“Mother, I’m fifteen! I’m not a kitten anymore,” Suzu protested.
“You will always be my kitten. Now, about your mission,” Belle said.
“Do you recall the last ambassadors to Queen Serenity?” she asked.
“Yes—Luna and Artemis—but that was over a millennium ago. Shouldn’t they be long gone?” Suzu replied.
“Thanks to the Silver Crystal, they’ve been reborn and granted longevity. But it’s their children I want you to fetch,” Belle explained.
Suzu gasped. “They have kittens?!”
“Yes, three biological and three adopted. Bring them here—they will receive blessings and gifts,” Queen Belle instructed.
The following morning, Suzu entered the Crystal Gateway in her cyan-and-blue-violet Senshi uniform, ears and tail intact. She arrived at the Crystal Palace command center, where Luna and Artemis were updating files, shocked by her appearance.
Soon, all six kittens were present, standing before Neo Queen Serenity and her husband.
“Greetings, Your Majesty. My mother, Queen Belle, said this matter is urgent,” Suzu explained.
“Why does this involve the Moon Kittens?” Serenity asked.
“Every ambassador pair receives a blessing from the Queen, and so do their kittens. My mother wishes to give these kittens their belated blessings and gifts,” Suzu replied.
The kittens assumed human form and marveled at Mau’s palace. Queen Belle blessed each of them, granting magical abilities and transformation brooches or roses. They were chosen as Mau’s Sailor Senshi, while still serving the Neo Senshi on Earth.
Over several days, Suzu trained the kittens, helping them master their newfound powers. Quartz became Neo Tuxedo Mask, Asteroid Neo Moonlight Knight, and the others learned to harness their abilities.
Eager to return home, the kittens carried with them not only new powers but a deeper understanding of their heritage. A new chapter had begun for all of them.
