The new Sailor Mars
Having only gotten two-and-a-half hours of sleep the previous night because all she could think about was having sex with her beloved – no matter whose body each girl occupied – the last thing that a sexually frustrated Serena wanted to hear was her alarm clock going off at seven o'clock. And when it did, Serena was none too pleased about it.
"You stupid, fucking piece of shit! Who is the dumb-ass who invented you?" Serena exclaimed.
"That would be the Greek philosopher Plato, who was said to possess a large water clock with an unspecified alarm signal similar to the sound of a water organ, my dear," Selenity answered.
"Ugh, no offense your majesty, but who the fuck asked you?"
"My dear, I know that right now you are Rei, and that it is important for to act as Rei so other people believe that you are Rei, but please keep in mind that you're not Rei. You are my daughter!"
"Yea, I know, I just didn't get a whole lot of sleep last night."
"That wouldn't have to do with a certain conversation with a certain cousin of yours would it?"
"You…you…you…you…"
"Yes, Serenity, I know all about yours and Mina's conversation from last night, and I must say it was one of the funniest conversations that I've ever heard!"
"Mother!"
"Oh relax Serenity, your fellow Senshi would often do what Mina suggested you and Rei do."
"Yea, that would be what us humans would call too much information."
"Yes, well that may be true, but the last time I checked, you aren't human my little moon bunny."
"Yes, I am quite aware of that fact. It's just that Mina's idea sounds…."
"Fascinating, kinky, sexy, maybe something you'd like to try?
"Ugh, mother would you stop putting perverted thoughts into my mind?"
"Oh Serenity, you haven't changed much have you. You still want to keep your thoughts of what you'd like Rei do to you and what you'd like to do to your Senshi of Mars to yourself don't you?"
"Well, what do expect after hearing all of the things that you and Pluto use to do to with each other?"
"You...you...you?"
"Yes mom, I heard you and Pluto share "special moments" together. Of course I wasn't the only one who heard. Mina did to."
"Well, I guess that would explain why Mina became so perverted."
"Yea, well as perverted as Mina can be, she occasionally has some good ideas."
"Care to share which one of Mina's idea's you like?"
"Not on your life."
"Yes, well I'm not exactly alive, am I?"
"Yea, yea, we all know that. Can we just stop with the sex talk though mom, Mina is coming over later and we've got work to do? So can we start my 'Sailor Mars training?'
"Yes, I supposed your right. What you like to know about the Avatar of Mars."
"Just the basics. Her background, her attacks, her weapons. You know things like that."
"Very well. Well, the first thing you should know about Sailor Mars is that unlike the rest of your Senshi, Rei was not her parent's first born child," Selenity began.
"What?" A perplexed Serena asked. "I thought that only a first born child could be a Senshi."
"That was the rule, but it not applied in Rei's case," Selenity answered.
"Why? What happened?"
"Well you see, she was her parents' fourth daughter. The first daughters of the King and Queen of Mars were killed in a war that occurred many years before you or the rest of your Senshi were born."
"And what about their third daughter?"
"She killed herself when she was eight."
"Did, did Rei know about any of this?" Serena asked.
"Unfortunately she did, Princess," Deimos said. "She accidently heard me and Phobos talking about it one day."
"And because we had betrayed our King, he punished us by turning us into crows," Deimos added.
"And we can never become our old selves again," Phobos concluded.
"Did Rei every forgive you?" Serena asked.
"Surprisingly, yes she did," Phobos answered. "However, her father never did. As a result, Rei - because her father treated us so harshly - never again had a relationship with her father."
"No wonder why Rei does not trust men, she has a history of being let down by them. Wait, what about Rei's mother?"
"She died giving birth to Rei. That's why one of the reasons why Rei was attracted to you," Selenity informed Serena. "Your heart was pure, so innocent and untainted by the realities of life that Mars felt compelled to protect it."
"Okay, that explains some things. But it doesn't explain why she is so mean to me all the time in this life."
"Rei acts the way she does towards you because just like your previous lives, she fell in love with you," Phobos answered.
"But unlike your past life, you didn't return Rei's feelings because you were so wrapped up in Tuxedo Mask," Deimos added.
"Then maybe I shouldn't get back at Rei then," Serena said.
"No, go ahead and get your revenge Princess, I think it might do Rei some good to get a dose of her own medicine," Phobos said.
"Plus, I think it might good comedy," Deimos added.
"Alright, you two, that is enough, I only have a few hours to be with daughter before Mina comes over," Selenity said.
"We, we get to see the Avatar of Venus?" Phobos exclaimed.
"Easy there lover boy, her heart belongs to Mercury." Deimos informed his partner.
"Sure, kill my hopes," Phobos.
"Phobos, Deimos if you don't leave right now, I swear I'm going to see if I have a recipe for Crow Stew," Serena warned Rei's advisors.
"You, you wouldn't? Would you?" Phobos nervously asked.
"I don't know, she might," Deimos said as he began to fly away. "Remember how she treated Jupiter and Uranus yesterday."
"Oh Kami, you're right," Phobos said as he left too.
"Serena, what did you do to Lita and Amara yesterday."
"Not much. Just showed them that I'm taking my temporary role as Rei very serious."
"I'm not going to ask what you did, cause I'm sure I don't want to know. Besides, that's not why I'm here. So, let's back on track shall we. Now, where was I?"
"You were telling me about Rei's past," Serena said.
"Right. So, as I said Rei was her parents' fourth child. She became a Sailor Senshi when she was six, and like previous generations, she took her oath to protect the Moon Princess when she was eight."
"Okay, what else do I need to know?"
"You need to know that as Sailor Mars, you have four main attacks: AkuryoTaisan, Burning Mandala, Snake Fire, and Flame Sniper. Eventually, Mars will unlock four more attacks, but that won't be for a while. And of course, you have two weapons, which I'm sure you're already aware of."
"Yes I am."
"Good, then I don't need to go over that."
"What else do I need to know?"
"You need to know that when it comes to the Sailor Senshi, you are second in command of the entire team. Yes, the Outers have a leader, which is Pluto, but even the Outers submit to the Inners."
"Wow, I never knew that," Serena said.
"That's because it wasn't public information. But yes, the Outers do submit to the Inners and they submit to Venus. However, if she is not there, then Sailor Mars becomes the leader. Other than that, there only you need to learn is how to fight and work with your team in battle.
"And are you going to teach me those things?"
"No, I've already asked Jupiter and Amara to do that."
"And when will that happen?"
"They will let you know. So, is there anything else you'd like to know before I leave?"
"Yea, how do I access Mars' powers," Serena said.
"The same way you did when you were Sailor Moon. Just reach down within your soul, feel the magic, and cry out, 'Mars Crystal Power, Make-up!'"
"Do mind if I try to transform into Sailor Mars right now."
"If you'd like."
"Mars Crystal Power, Make-up," Serena cried out.
Of course much to Serena's dismay, nothing happened.
"Oh, there is one thing I did forget to mention," Selenity said."
"What's that?" Serena asked.
"Ever since my arrival today, you've addressed me as mother; and when Phobos and Deimos were here, they addressed you as Princess, not as Rei."
"Yea, you're right. So, it could be that because I'm thinking I'm Serena and not Rei that I can't access my powers?"
"Preciously."
"Okay, give me a minute to refocus."
"Take your time. Mina isn't here yet."
After taking about five minutes to refocus, Serena once again tried to transform into Sailor Mars. And this time, she was successful. Unfortunately, even though Serena knew that Mars wore high heels, Serena had never wore high heels before. And so after becoming Sailor Mars, Serena fell flat on her ass.
"Ouch, that fucking hurt."
"Serena, watch you language."
"I'm sorry, the person you are trying to reach does not live here. Please hang up and try again."
"Very funny. Just keep that in mind. Your transformation powers won't work if you think of yourself as Serena."
"Yes, well there's still one thing I need to learn, how to walk in these high heels."
"Then it's good thing that I decided to show up this morning isn't it, my second in command?" Mina called out.
"And here comes the one who will teach you that."
"Mina, I didn't expect you to show up until later."
"Yea, well I can't have my second in command stumbling around in high heels, especially since the job of my second in command is to protect my cousin."
"Technically, your cousin is here Mina."
"In spirit only. Remember Serena, right now you're Sailor Mars. Rei is you, so technically Rei is my cousin. Therefore, it's vital for me to be here so that I can help you – Sailor Mars – protect my cousin."
"You know, even though you are right, you're still really weird sometimes Mina."
"This from the girl who is going around disguised as my second in command?"
"And that from a girl who, if I remember correctly, informed just last night that she had prevented fantasies of having sex with her body while wearing Sailor Mercury's body."
"Mina, please tell me you did not tell Serena, or should I Rei, that."
"Oh she most certainly did your majesty. In fact, now that I think about, I do believe that Venus also said who she used to enjoy being some of the other Senshi, particularly the Outer Senshi, which if memory serves me correctly, would include Pluto would it not?"
"Oh my stars. You two are really fucked up!"
"Yea, well keep in mind, everything we learned, we learned from you your majesty."
"Yea, I guess I am partially to blame aren't I?"
"Partially?"
"Yea, well, remember, it takes two to tango. And if think about it there Mina, Trista is as much to blame for the way we turned out as Queen Selenity is."
"Yea, I suppose your right about that one Rei."
"Well, if you two are going just going to blame me for crap that happened a long time ago, maybe I should take my leave."
"Probably a good idea there your majesty considering that going to have help Rei learn how to walk around in heels."
"Okay, okay, just make sure you two behave."
"Wow, did she really just say that?"
"Afraid so."
"Well, seeming as though the malls don't open for a few hours, you might as well teach me how to walk in these high heels of mine."
"No probs, just hold my hand and we'll walk together until you think you've got things under control."
And for the next hour or so, Serena held unto Mina's hand for dear life. However, once Mina felt that Serena was comfortable to walk around, and run around in Mars' high heels and after Serena let go of her transformation, Mina and the brand new Rei went to mall together to buy some clothes, discuss battle strategy, and trade secrets.
