Terran New Year
(January 1st, Year One)
A pair of orange heels clicked on the pale tile. Sailor Venus slowly walked down the hall. Her eyes lingering on the seemingly endless line of rulers' pictures that decorated the hall and let out a sharp breath.
Her eye caught the view from the window. The blue marble still turned in the Moon's shadow. Although, there were flickers of light. Little glowing embers making their appearance in the skies. She had heard they celebrated every new revolution around the sun. They celebrated by lighting fire to explosives and watch it explode in the air. It was strange to her. (Besides the idea of wasting good resources for protection.) A celebration for a new age? A celebration for their increasing proximity to death?
She decided she would never understand Terrans and continued looking down the hall. Venus was startled to notice a silhouette at the end of the hall.
"Lady Mars, is that you?"

Mars was standing at the end of the hall of dynasties looking at one of the pictures. Venus had sent her a letter asking Mars to meet her here so here mars was standing in the hall. Where Venus was might be the first question on anyone’s mind but Mars knew the answer to that one her fearless leader was yet again late. She was used to stuff like this Venus would ask to meet somewhere and mars would be on time and waiting for Venus.
Mars was actually lost in her memories what memories well the memories of when she first met the inner senshi one memory came to mind at this point when she first met Venus. Her first thoughts when meeting her friend were simple where is the closet room to meditate in. she knew early on that this girl was going to drive her completely insane and she would be spending many long hours meditating. Well Venus didn’t disappoint within an hour of talking with the leader of the inner senshi she had promptly stood up walked to the nearest corner and started meditating. The only thing she didn’t remember about that day was what Venus had said that had caused her to start losing her temper.
It was then she heard a voice making her jump and turn around “mars is that you?” were the words that caused the fire senshi to jump and who asked her that well it was none other than Venus. “Yea Venus it’s me so what did you want to talk to me about” she asked a small smile on her face her leader may drive her nuts most of the time but Venus was one of her dearest friends.

"Did you check to see if the princess was in bed?" She asked. Venus shook her head. She didn't wait for a reply. "It doesn't matter, Mars. I need to ask you something."
She paused for a moment and thought about her next set of words. Venus looked down at her gold shoes then back to her friend.
Her friend stood a bit impatiently in her red and purple fuku. Venus's blue-gray eyes looked into Mars intense violet eyes. She opened her mouth and began her question.
"Has something been off to you?" Her eyes shifted to the portraits as if they knew something. She couldn't handle that this had been loitering in her mind for sometime. "Something's changing." She said more to herself. "Have you had any visions? Lately?"

Had she gone to check that the princess was in bed of course she had but Venus hadn't given her the chance to answer and just moved on. Had she had any visions lately she had to think on that one. It took her a minute to find the answer yes she had had a vision just a couple days ago she just hadn't had time to go figure out what it had meant. “Actually I had one just a couple of days ago I just haven’t had the chance to meditate on it in front of the fire yet.” she said she would have to make the time soon if Venus was having a bad feeling than something was coming and it wasn't any good at all.
“As soon as we finish here I will go straight to the fire and decipher that vision and let you know though” mars said a calm smile on her face though her mind was on multiple different possibility’s.

"Thank you, Mars." She said with a slight smile. "I hope it's nothing. I think my mom scared me as a young child with her talk of prophecies and visions..." Her mind lingered on the idea that she was truly the reincarnated original Aphrodite.
It put a terrible feeling in her core. She wanted little to do with the planet that rejected her for the fear of an apocalypse.
"I'm sorry to bring you out here on such short notice--" Her eyes caught the window and her statement stopped. She became a little irritated with the flickers of light on Earth.
"Look at them!" She cried as she pointed to the face of the Earth. Small bits of light sprinkled onto the land masses. The light would disappear then another kind of light would reappear moments later. Fireworks, was what Mercury had called them the last celebration the Terrans had had.
"They're celebrating a revolution around the sun! Who does that? We don't celebrate every twenty eight days when the Moon sees the other side of the Earth."
She sighed heavily as every Lunian, senshi, guard, and royal (except Serenity) and spoke. "Terrans."

Mars smiled “Always happy to help Venus” she said pushing her hair over her shoulder. She looked out the window. “That’s what you say about all Terran holidays” the black haired girl said laughing although she had to agree with Venus on that one what kind of nonsense was this and explosives she hadn't even been able to get her hands on explosives something about her temper and the queen being afraid she would blow the guards sky high.
“What I want to know is what idiot decided explosives were a good way to celebrate mercury told me they even allow children to set them off.” Mars told the the blond she felt like a normal teenager at times like this not something the four of them ever got much of a chance to do the life of a senshi wasn't all fun and games but when they got a break it was great to get together and gossip or talk about boys. “what parent would allow their child to set off anything that would explode."
OK so yea she thought if she wasn't allowed to touch them all because of when she had accidentally left some dynamite in that one lords room he deserved it for hurting her friends like that the Terran children shouldn't be allowed to lay hands on them either.

Venus watched her friend move her hair and remind her that she always spoke of Terrans harshly.
"I know," She said with a smile and a tilt of her head. She placed a glove hand lightly on the window. Her gaze deepened out the window. The sporadic lights still appeared.
She laughed at Mars's comment about the explosives. It was an actual laugh, one that came from her core and enlightened her mood.
"Goddesses know what is in their drinking water down there." She said with a light chuckle. "Whatever it is, it makes the whole planet chaotic and strange." She said with a sigh.
It was rare that the two of them got a laid back moment. Usually they were running drills and instructing the princess on how to behave.
Here the two were jesting about the stupidity of the Terrans.
"Thank you for coming. I'm lucky to have you as a friend and on my team." Venus turned to her friend and grinned. "You always know how to cheer me up."

Mars grinned at the blond eyes softening from when they had their conversation moments prior. It warmed her heart to hear Venus tell her that she always knew how to cheer the blond up. “maybe a break from the training schedule for a girls day is in order sometime this week” Mars said. She than looked at Venus. “I still don't understand how It is Terran children only need ask and their parents will allow them to shoot those off but the second I even reach for any explosives an alarm of all things sounds” Mars said a little put out because of course she wasn't lying on that Venus had set an alarm on all things that explode to warn her when Mars had gone to grab one and it was the most annoying thing she has ever heard. “oh yes I was meaning to ask why dose it say stop in the name of love and beauty of all things” she had to ask this question had been eating at her.

"Yes...maybe a break would be good..." She mumbled but was soon distracted by her friend's next statement. She watched the Earth slowly turn from the Moon's shade to expose another side.
She giggled when Mars brought up the explosives alarmed. She turned to her friend, her eyes parting from the glass. "Mars, dear." She placed her hand lightly on the subordinate's shoulder. Her eyes looking upward as she waved the free hand in the air as she occasionally did when she spoke with her hand. "Even if I do trust you with my life, the moon's people, the princess, and their lives too..."
Her smile quirked into a smirk and her eyes darted to the Martian girl. "I would be a fool to let you, Senshi of Flame and War, near explosives." Her eyes flickered back to the window and her eyebrows raised. "And unlike the Terrans...I am no fool."
She pointed to herself with a chuckle.

Mars smirked at the Venusian and place a hand on her shoulder as well. “dear Venus at times I must wonder about that” Mars said as soon as Venus had mention that she was no fool. The only think to show she was just teasing the girl a little was the amused look in her purple eyes.
Mars looked out the window fiddling with her necklace she would admit from this view the earth was beautiful but would not hesitate to beat any Terrans that were brave enough to come to the moon from their own planet. She never actually trusted anyone from that planet. She had only met one Terran before and he had been trouble so she figured that all Terrans were like that since she had never actually met another one to tell her any different. She was fine with them as long as they stayed on their own planet away from her, her friends, and her princess. “It truly is a beautiful planet such a shame it's populated by such fools” Mars said heaving a sigh.

Venus stood quietly listening to Mars with her hands on her hips. Her eyes finally parted with marble into the purple eyes of the Martian princess and warrior.
Her words flowed through one ear and out the other. She heard snippets of each thing she said.
Venus nodded at the girl's comment concerning the beauty of the planet. When the leader of the senshi realized what the young woman had said earlier about her intelligence. The blonde stuck out her pink tongue at the raven haired girl. She punched her friend lightly at each word.
"I. Am. No. Fool." She enunciated every syllable in clear Lunian.
"Do not challenge me, Mars. I am your great fearless leader!" Venus exclaimed as she began to run to the exit of the hall of dynasties. "You would be the fool to do so."

Mars laughed at the blond “took you long enough to catch that.” the raven haired girl said running towards the exit after Venus. “and your not a fool I agree that is until some cute boy pops out of the wood work” she said teasingly. She grinned at her friend as she was now next to the blond. “have I told you recently how great of a friend you truly are.” she asked a genuine smile on her face.
Venus was one of her best and truest friends and she wouldn't trade the blond senshi of Venus for anything no matter how much she irritated mars it was just the way she was which made mars want to be around her all the more often. At this point it seemed both senshi had no cares in the world and well that’s the way mars wanted it for the time being she would get to work on deciphering her vision a little later right now she would act like the normal girl she sometimes longed to be but she knew she would never be although if she had been a normal girl she would never have met the girls so she would be happy enough just to have the great friends she had now.

"I'M REFORMED!" Venus laughed as she shouted. "I AM THE DEDICATED LEADER OF THE SENSHI! NO MALE SHALL DISTRACT ME!" Her fist punched the air with vigor.
When she heard Mars call her a great friend, she lowered her fist and turned to her friend. "No, it's been a while." Venus said with a smirk. "But I'm always open for praise." Her arms wrapped around the girl's shoulders.
She was happy to have such a wonderful friend as her right hand warrior. Venus loved that they were able to be serious warriors then fun-loving girls, they were when off duty, in less than a blink of an eye.
"You are a great friend. I've said it before and I've said it again, despite your teasing, you're a wonderful warrior." Venus said with a grin before planting a friendly kiss on her cheek.

Mars smiled “I will never be reformed sorry the cute guy comes before all but the princess” She said smirking. She outright laughed when Venus said she was always open for praise. “yes of course you are” she said laughing. She smiled when Venus said she was a great friend and a wonderful warrior “I know I am” she said winking to the orange clad senshi. “I'm the best at what I do and no one's better” she said teasingly wrapping an arm around Venus's shoulders. Mars threw her hair behind her to get it out of her face. “so you said something about a meeting with some guy from some planet was planned for tomorrow is he cute.”
It was an important question well for her anyway. Yes she was a warrior but she was still a girl so yes cute boys were important even if she would drop them in an instant because her princess needed her for something. Although the meeting the next day was a conversation from way earlier dinner she believed. She couldn't remember exactly who these guys were or where they were from she just wanted to know if they were cute was that such a crime.
