Meep... im really bored at the moment im supposed to be practicing my cello but I hate my cello so I'll update! By the way this is the chapter were I reveal the legend and their past (Yes I finally made a legend!) however, their past might not be exact detail because there will be their past in a new story so after this story is done keep your eye out for "when top and bottom meet" their past in detail this chapter only says it in brief. Oh and for Setsuna's Time Stop I think she just says time stop but she doesn't die this time cause of something but anyway. In all honesty I was listening to some sad music, which made me put a tint of fluff in this chappy!

Vik: all will be reveiled also if you wonder why there are 2 queens its because mars was split in two halves upper and lower mars

Rena H.M: not much fluff here  but I got the legend but its kinda corny

Airlady: Everyone wants the legend don't they? Read this chapter please

Damia – Queen of the Gypsi's: thanks! And no im not an awesome writer okay im good but not awesome

Ileana DuBaer: I LOVED that bit it was hilarious! Ill see if I can put more funny stuff in!

War Maiden a.k.a Chapter 8:

Sailor Mars struck a pose as she recited her titles. Trowa just stood there, not knowing what the hell was going on, well actually, he knew that a fight was going to happen soon.

"Jadeite never was good enough for you! You broke my brother's heart! And know you trifle with the future king of Mars? How low are you?" Screeched Rizka then turning to Trowa,

"And you! Betraying your family! Betraying you're planet! You had sworn secrecy of you're name but no you go telling the princess of upper Mars you're true name! Then you fall in love with her! Her! She was not good enough for you and she never will be! Her and her slave clothing spying on us! But no! You let her learn our secrets!"

"What??" Asked Sailor Mars still confused.

"You are pathetic! I can't see how Upper Mars made you their princess but then again im ashamed to even think of you, you Trowa stooping as low as them!" continued Rizka going red from shouting.

"Upper Mars? How do you know Trowa?" Asked Sailor Mars.

"Well, I guess my luck as finally turned, you won't be able to make the war maiden appear seeing as the heart of her is gone, or at least she doesn't know the legend which should be enough...in other words you're both toast!" Said Rizka smirking.

Then holding her hands together an orb of red light grew, larger and larger.

"Prepare to die!" Shouted Rizka as she let loose the ball towards Sailor Mars.

Using lightning quick reflexes Trowa pushed Rei and himself out of the way.

"You were just lucky!" Hissed Rizka in fury as she summoned more orbs; this time instead of one there were 13!

"Time Stop!" Shouted Sailor Pluto as she warped into view. Then Rizka and her orbs stopped, as though someone had pressed pause.

"Pluto! Aren't you going to get punished for that?" Asked Sailor Mars in alarm.

"No, not this time...but I can't hold time still for long so I must show you both something" She said as she conjured up another warp.

Curious but obeying Mars stepped in followed by Trowa who honestly had no idea why he even went into the portal, but somehow he felt safe.

"Were are we?" Called Trowa, his voice seemed distant as they walked.

Then he heard another voice, it was like his own! Surprisingly the boy looked identical to him, then his eyes traveled over and he saw Rizka, Smiling with her parents in a corner of the room.

"Father when shall we claim Upper Mars as our own?" 'Trowa' asked.

"Tomorrow we attack at noon and the day after at midnight Upper Mars will be ours." Replied the man on the throne.

Then Setsuna, Rei and Trowa moved into another palace, and there sitting on a throne was none other then...Rei herself!

"Mother, are you sure they aren't going to attack and that lower Mars wanted truce? It doesn't seem like them" Said 'Rei' in a soft voice.

"I know, but they wanted truce...hopefully they were honest and really meant it..." Said the older woman on a golden throne.

Then, Setsuna took the future lovers to see a bloody seen. Body's strewn all over the ground. Blood falling on the deserted land. Screams, shouts, cries, tears all mixed together to form this war.

After seeing this they walked into the palace were 'Rei' was. Rei's mother was crying. Then a beggar girl walked in. It was Rei!

"Mother, don't cry! I'll be safe," Said the beggar dressed princess.

"I know dear...I just want you to know I love you...now go before they get you!" Said the crying royal.

Rei walked out and while the battle raged on she walked away not too quickly but not too slowly either. Rei headed towards a distant place. In honesty, she knew not were to go.

But as the King of Lower Mars promised, Upper Mars was claimed that midnight.

Then, they saw Rei at a temple reading script...

When love, purity, knowledge,

Death, strength, skill,

And life combine...

One soul stands purer than the rest...

Only this individual carries the spirit

The spirit that holds the one trapped

Once released the spirit of the

War maiden shall destroy the evil

That plagued the land forever

War Maiden

"The Legend!" Called out Sailor Mars as they too read the script.

Then they saw Trowa himself walk into the temple... He walked over to 'Rei' and kissed her...

"My love..." They heard him murmur as he buried his face in Rei's black hair.

They saw no more as the trio warped back into modern time.

"Im sorry I could not show you more Mars...but you know what you must do now..." said Pluto as she disappeared.

"Wait! Do what?" Called Sailor Mars as the effects of time stop were lifted.

Unaware that Rizka was now free Sailor Mars was caught off guard as the orbs hit her.

"Eugh..." Moaned Mars as she was tossed on the floor. Struggling to get up, Mars decided to attack.

"Mars Firebird Strike!"

The fiery bird attacked Rizka viscously. Rizka didn't seem fazed by the attack though...

"Hold it right there!" Came a voice... yes the other senshi decided to appear.

"Im sailor moon!"

"Sailor Venus!"

"Sailor Mercury!"

"Sailor Jupiter!"

"We're the sailor scouts champions of justice and in the name of our guardians we shall punish you!"

"Invited by a new age I'm Sailor Uranus scout of wind and the heavens above!"

"Invited by a new age I'm Sailor Neptune scout of water and the sea alone!"

"Invited by a new age I'm Sailor Saturn scout of death, destruction and the revolution!"

The seven scouts appeared one by one, however Pluto wasn't there.

"Sorry girls but im not interested in you... I'm only here to fight the true enemy... in other words the holder of the unawakened spirit.... War Maiden!" Declared Rizka

"War Maiden?" Asked Sailor Moon in confusion.

"This is wasting time! Mars Flame Sniper!" Screamed Sailor Mars as she fired the piercing arrow towards Rizka who dodged it.

"See how easy it is to miss with archery my dear Princess?" Asked Rizka sweetly.

The too fire princesses were oblivious to the fact that the other scouts and Trowa were still there.

"She's good" Muttered Trowa under her breath as Rizka dodged yet another attack.

"War Maiden..." said Sailor Mercury as she typed lightning fast into her mini computer.

"War Maiden! The legend of the war maiden! The War Maiden is a pure soul that has all the qualities we possess! She will vanquish all the evil!" Exclaimed Mercury

"Well no doubt it's you Koneko" Said Uranus looking at Sailor moon

"Me? A War Maiden? You're joking right?" Asked Sailor Moon, giggling at the thought.

"Well you did destroy evil heaps of times but... yeah I think you are...but how to awaken the spirit?" Asked Jupiter.

"Everyone put you're mind as one... focus on you're powers alone... focus on them and think I give my power to the war maiden...maybe that will work?" Suggested Saturn quietly.

The other scouts nodded in agreement and formed a circle around Moon and thought. Suddenly glowing, a coloured orb appeared above the senshi.

But instead of going to Sailor Moon they glided over to Sailor Mars.

"Kami what's this joke you're playing?" Asked Sailor Mars as her battle with Rizka paused as the orbs surrounded her in a circle. Then, the white orb circled Mars once and glided into Sailor Mars' tiara. After white came yellow, green, blue, orange, aqua, purple and garnet.

Rizka gazed in awe as the orbs entered Mars then regaining her proper state of mind she screamed as Mars burst with a colourful light. Then standing were Sailor Mar's used to, was a girl. Sleek Black hair cascading down her shoulders, a short black skirt and a black halter with a studded collar. Black boots and black bracelets. The only colour was the purple highlights dancing on her hair and her crimson lips.

"War Maiden..." Was whispered through the room.

War Maiden...

Well what do you think? Good? Bad? Delete? Meep nah I won't delete it cause I think people like this! By the way sorry if this is a little rushed I just got a new idea for a story and I think I know were im going with this. It took me a while to come up with the corny legend and the title. I was thinking fire warrior but that's too girlish so it had to do with a girl and war so War Maiden but I left out fire cuz fire is a war's best friend! This chapter is around 1600 words long so don't say this is short
