Chapter 1: Comrades in Arms

Minako turned her eyes back to the scene before her. She had never imagined that there was anyone else in the world that possessed magical powers like the Sailor Senshi. The one in the front of their formation, the leader she supposed, wore fire red armor and wielded twin katanas. He skillfully maneuvered the blades, slicing into an adversary until a mist like fog rose up from the enemy's form. Her jaw dropped as he gritted his teeth and fitted the ends of his swords together.

With no warning, he leapt several feet in the air, holding his combined swords over his head.

"What is he doing?" Makoto asked in a harsh whisper. The four were careful not to give their position away. Ami was still trying to analyze the creatures that the five men were fighting.

"I don't know. Is he attacking?" Michiru offered. All eyes flew to the red armored male as his voice called out over the mayhem.

"Flare Up Now!"

Fire and heat exploded from the warrior and his weapon, engulfing fifteen of the soldiers in its wake, leaving piles of ashes where they had stood. Makoto chuckled and resisted the urge to pump her fist in the air.

"Now that's how you do it! Mars, eat your heart out!" She laughed. Minako grinned as she watched the men attack. They were so powerful. Why had they never seen them before? They could have been powerful allies during the many battles the Sailor Senshi had faced. Were they more powerful than the Senshi?

Ami looked up from her analysis at the warrior whom had just attacked. "I do not know his name, but he is wearing the Armor of the Wildfire, and attacked just now with the mythical Wildfire swords. He is very powerful."

Minako peered back at the man as his feet touched the ground. His allies cheered his efforts as they set to task releasing their own attacks.

"Thunder Bolt Cut!"

"Super Wave Smasher!"

"Arrow Shockwave!"

"Iron Rock Crusher!"

A wave of attacks flew around, leaving the four Senshi in awe of the raw power coming from these new warriors. Minako turned to Makoto.

"No, they don't need our help I suppose." Minako offered. Makoto nodded her head fervently and peered over the blonde's shoulder to watch the next move. They froze as maniacal laughter boomed high over their heads.

"That does not sound good." Michiru said, instinctively placing her hand close to the pocket of her coat that held her transformation talisman.

The laughter was replaced by the sight of four armored soldiers who stood high on a building overlooking the Ronin Warriors' battlefield.

"How many of there guys are there Ami?" Minako asked, becoming more and more intrigued by the moment. Ami's fingers flew across her keyboard and her eyes flashed back and forth between the screen and the four menacing figures that had appeared.

Makoto leaned close to Minako's ear. "I get the feeling that they aren't allied to those Ronins."

Minako nodded in agreement as the four leapt from the building and landed on the road way before the Ronins with a loud thud, their armor clanking as they settled. To the right center of the four, the darkest clad warrior stepped forward, gripping a kusari-gama in his right hand. His armor gleamed unrealistically in the pale light. It was black and dark blue, spikes protruding from his elbows and ankle plates. A brown sleeveless garment hung open over his armor, trimmed in gold. His face was concealed by a black helmet with a silver piece protruding over his forehead and jutting upward in opposite directions. His eyes and mouth were visible, the rest of his visage hidden behind a blood red face plate.

Minako shivered as rich laughter emerged from him. He was most definitely not an ally of these men. No, she could tell that he was one of the enemy. "Anything Ami?" She whispered in a hushed tone.

Ami turned one of her earrings and her visor disappeared once more. "He is definitely not Ronin. I can tell you that much. Other than that, those four I cannot seem to analyze." She pocketed the computer and peered around the corner at the four menacing figures.

The dark warrior sneered at the Ronins before speaking. "So, little Wildfire, it seems you managed to find your way into one of our gates. How lucky for me." He chuckled.

The red armored male identified simply as Wildfire stepped forward, fists clenched.

"Anubis!" He yelled through gritted teeth. The other four Ronin formed rank alongside of their leader, weapons thrust forward in wait of the coming battle.

"Lord Talpa asked us to come and be the welcoming party to our kingdom. I do hope you are not disappointed that there won't be a tour." He sneered as his companions flanked him.

"This is as far as you go Ronins. You have come to your death!" One of the other three bellowed.

On the Ronin side, the warrior in green gripped his broad sword. "We'll see about that Sehkmet! Stand down Warlords or fight!"

The girls looked on in horror as the Ronin and opposing warriors began an all brawl. The kusari-gama wielding 'warlord' identified as Anubis took on the Ronin leader.

"Come Ryo of Wildfire. Let's see how you escape me this time. There is no volcano around to fuel your armor. You will die at my hands boy!" Anubis began swirling his weapon above his head at unbelievable speed before belting the words of his own attack.

"Quake With Fear!" He bellowed, releasing the chain and hitting the Ronin square in the chest. Ryo cried out in pain as the chains wound around his body, suffocating him.

"Oh God! Won't one of those other Ronins stop him?" Michiru gasped in horror. Minako swallowed hard, fear creeping into her heart for the five young men.

"I don't think that they can Michiru." She responded.

Sehkmet had pulled two swords from his back though they quickly blurred into six. At lightning speed he released his assault onto the light blue clad Ronin.

"Snake Fang Strike!" Swords connected and gashes broke out in the Ronins' armor and the man screamed as though he were being poisoned, his weapon falling to the ground beside him.

Another warlord with purple and green armor released six claw like objects at the strongest Ronin. Hardrock was taken off guard as he attempted to rip Anubis' chains from Ryo's throat.

The "Web of Deception" blindsided him and he flew back against a crumbled building, the wind knocked from his body.

"Minako we've got to do something! Whether we know anything about this enemy or not, it's our duty!" Makoto cried, her fists balled as she watched the Ronins bodies being flung around like rag dolls.

Minako knew it was their duty, but she was afraid. They had lived in a time of peace for so long and now she must bring her Senshi back out to fight creatures that appeared to be far stronger than anything they had ever faced. Her mind raced as she tried to come up with some sort of plan.

All logic fled her brain as she watched the two unharmed Ronin cry out in pain as the fourth warlord released his "Black Lightning Slash" upon them. She could not watch fellow champions of justice suffer and not make an attempt to save them. Plan be damned, they were going, and they were going now.

"You're right Makoto. Let's go!" She cried as she ran out into the battle, revealing her presence to the four warlords and five pain wracked Ronins. Ami, Michiru, and Makoto followed their leader out at break neck speed. Makoto's heart pumped in her chest as she came to a halt behind their leader.

Minako glared up at the armored warlords who seemed amused at her detection.

"Now what have we here? Have you come to nurse their wounds girl?" Anubis laughed as the blonde leader stood before him.

'What in the hell are these girls doing here? How did they pass through the gate without detection? What are they playing at? I could crush this one with my bare hand.' He thought to himself as Minako glared at him.

Ryo's eyes flew to the girl that now stood between him and Anubis' onslaught. He didn't know who she was, but she had to get out of here before she got hurt.

"Hey you! You've got to escape! Get out of here before you get hurt!" He cried in a weak voice as the chains that surrounded him limited his air supply.

The other warlords looked up from their prey at the four civilian women standing in the center of their battle. They looked on with interest as the small blonde scowled at Anubis.

"Nurse wounds nothing! I've come to give you a few, you piece of garbage!" Minako yelled, putting her hand inside her pocket and clutching her transformation talisman.

Anubis narrowed his eyes as the girl hurled an insult at him. "Brave words little girl. I'll make you eat them!" He bellowed, gripping his weapon tightly.

'This will be too easy. I never took pride in harming women but she decided to start this so I will finish it.' He thought wickedly.

Sekhmet, Cale, and Dais laughed at the mocking little woman and her three friends.

"Now this should be fun." Dais murmured, crossing his arms over his chest. Minako pulled the talisman from her pocket and the other girls followed suit.

"And you will eat yours!"

Without hesitation, Minako raised her talisman to the sky and screamed her henshin with all of her might.

"Venus Crystal Power, Make Up!"

Anubis stumbled back in shock as yellow and orange light engulfed the small blonde, picking her body up off the ground and spinning her around. Stars flew in ribbons around her thin form and he could see her angry face through them.

The other warlords looked on with concern as the three other girls followed Minako's suit.

"Jupiter Crystal Power!"

"Mercury Crystal Power!"

"Neptune Crystal Power!"

"MAKE UP!"

The weakened Ronins watched in the same shocked surprise as the four women were wrapped in light before landing solidly back on their feet.

Anubis raised an eyebrow as the Minako's transformation ended and she stood before him in her Sailor fuku. Makoto, Ami, and Michiru slipped into battle formation behind her and waited for their cue to strike.

"Well, what have we here then? Have we found ourselves a few little female warriors?" Anubis taunted, taking in Minako's Sailor fuku. She did not flinch as his eyes darted over her scant form. He looked her over from the red ribbon on her head to the orange high heels that were on her feet.

"I don't know what you're up to Anubis, but I'm here to stop you. I am the Sailor Senshi of justice, here to punish your wicked ways. I am Sailor Venus!" She cried.

"With the blessings of thunder and lightning I am Sailor Jupiter!"

"With the blessings of wisdom and water, I am Sailor Mercury!"

"Appearing gracefully with the blessings of the ocean and sea, I am Sailor Neptune!"

Anubis could not help but grin at the angry she-warrior in front of him. It was comical to him to be threatened by someone who came up to the middle of his chest.

"You have spirit little girl. I will give you that. But you are no match for the Warlord of Cruelty." He spat. He prepared to launch his kusari-gama at her, thinking to himself that it was a shame to destroy such a beautiful creature.

Before he could release his attack, Venus surprised him with one of her own. Light erupted from her hand as she cried out into the night.

"Venus Crescent Beam Smash!"

Shock overtook the warlord as he was slammed full tilt into a building several yards behind him. As he paused to catch his breath, his eyes grew wide as he watched the energy pour off of her in waves.

'Who in the hell are these people?' His mind raced.

Sekhmet would have laughed at Anubis' humiliation of being battered in battle by a woman no less, but he hadn't the time. His body shook and writhed as the blue fuku clad girl launched "Mercury Aqua Rhapsody" at him.

The chains around Ryo's neck disappeared as Anubis was thrown into the wall. He gasped for breath and fell down upon his knees.

"Who are they Rowen?" He asked as Strata crawled over to where his leader lay.

"I have no clue, but they are kicking some Warlord ass. That's all that I care about."

Anubis' gritted his teeth as he launched himself from the wall, rage powering his muscular body as he ran full tilt at the blonde that defied him.

Well, the Senshi have joined the battle and the Warlords are shocked to say the least. Tell me what you think!
