Things had not been going well for the Sailor Senshi since they began their assault upon the Dark Kingdoms main gateway to Earth. They had been expecting to have to deal with one powerful Youma, or maybe even a group, that Beryl would have kept in reserve. After all that was how their enemy worked.
Any ousider with a brain larger than a grape would have been able to point out that in the past the tactical actions of the varios Dark Kingdom agents that they had faced either made no sense or were just plain idiotic. Had Beryl possessed an IQ larger than the room temperiture of water she would not have sealed Jadeite away in a lump of crystal, thus weakening her own forces. The smart thing to do would have been to send all her Generals after the Senshi at once and crush them with overwhelming power.
On the other hand no-one could ever accuse the dark queen of doing the smart thing.
As such the Senshi could, just possibly, be excused for being a tiny bit suprised when instead of a last ditch defense they found themselves facing an army of well over a thousand Youma.
"This is all you're fault meatball brains!" yelled Sailor Mars as she avoided a swipe to her shoulder while flash frying a Youma that got too close. While her words might have been harsh a close odserver might have noted that she stayed especially close to the reborn princess.

"This is all you're fault meatball brains!" yelled Sailor Mars as she avoided having her bowels slashed out while flash frying a Youma that got too close. A close observer might have noticed that while her words were harsh she was spending more time watching the reborn princesses back than her own.
Given the dinn of the battle it was quite unlikly that Sailor Moon even heard her teammate. The Senshi were entrenched atop a large rocky shelf of ice with a tall cliff to their back. As things stood the were able to use the large boulders of ice as cover while the cliff behind them ensured that they couldn't be attacked from behind. The downside was that they were now pinned down and had no avenue for escape.
Their strategy so far had been to use Sailor Mercurys fog to blanket and confuse the enemy while the others used the oppertunity to take out several Youma. At first it had worked quite well, but then they found themselves losing more and more ground to the numerically superior force. Already some of the Dark Kingdomers were getting within physical attack range.
Deep in her fortress Beryl cackled dementedly as her forces steadly drew closer and closer to the Senshi. As long as they didn't give Sailor Moon enough time to use her crystals power victory was assured. Soon the warriors of the Moon would be overrun and die, then the Ginzuishouwould be hers, Endymion would be hers, the world would be HERS!!!!!!!! HA HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The only thing that could save her foes now was a miracle!
A miracle was delivered.
A miracle that had a long serpentile body nearly three hundred feet long, a huge two headed mouth, a pair of wings with a span larger than a jet fighter, claws larger than the Senshi themselves and lots and lots of power.
Usagi saw the Wgyptian God Dragon floating in the sky above them and,quite understandibly assuming it was a monster from the Dark Kingdom, culed up into a ball and temporerally regressed into a small brown mammel suddenlly facing the biggest damned preditor it had ever seen.
Ranma/Sylfer contemplated his next move.
