December 1, 2003:
    Okay, let's see how I type this:

Hmm....uh.....duh...*flops*..... ZZZZZ!.....HA AH!.... err.......I forgot!.........oh well, let's get over with it! ^_^;

      Being independent of any religions (and proud of it!), I prefer to leave the religions especially Christainity and their issues alone, but it doesn't help that when I was surprised to learn that the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse were mentioned in the Christian Bible (Duurer's drawing was what inspired me to write about the Four Horsemen not the Bible), and Mamoru needed more info about Four Horsemen..... But that did open up more possibilities for the rest of the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse. This chapter will deal with some issues that may be considered sensitive(offensive) so some of you may have to be prepared to steel yourself for what's coming. Meagan S. has been very helpful by offering her opinions and advice on some matters in this fanfic. ^_^
    I also must point out that Christians are a very small minority in Japan, and Japan's dominant religions are Shinto and Buddhism, so they may have different ways of looking(more flexible?) at the world out there than the Christians do. For example, a certain Chinese character will treat the Bible the same way we treat the Greek Mythology which was considered "Bible" to the Ancient Greeks (same for Norse Mythology, Japanese mythology, etc..).  I just wanted to tell you this so some of you can be more prepared to not to be irked/upset/offended/whatever. ^_^;; It's very easy to offend several closed-minded and conservative Christians as I have noticed. Mention "Evolution" to them, and they'll go religious fanatic..... *rolls eyes* No offense to the Christians, but some of them are like that...  ^_^;;
     So being a non-Christian, I wanted to "provoke" Christians into learning to be more aware and more consideration of Non-Christians especially Muslims (as in case of Iraq), Buddlists, Hinduist, etc.. and how they felt about some of Christains even if I had to do this the hard way, but that would help you people be more prepared to deal with those kind of people without causing any problems.

May 2004 additional notes:
  There seems to be several cases of misunderstanding or mis-interpretations on part of Michiru. If anyone thinks that she seems to be more interested in her looks (or visiting art galleries/restuarants), that's because she was doing that just to pass time while riding buses or waiting for Ami to finish something. Also, if Amiseemed to domain this Neptune chapter, that's because I found Ami to be more useful than Michiru  due to her knowledge of science, geography, computers for foreign language commciations, and more. But I'm sure that you'll discover which one is actually in charge. ^_~
     They thought that Michiru seemed "balloon-headed", but that's not quite true. Michiru showed up only during SMS and SMStars, so we don't know Michiru as much as the Protectors of Sailor Moon. I have been doing plenty of research on her using both Anime and  Manga versions as references. Michiru have a collection of cosmetics as according to manga, and that gives me an impression that Michiru is both intelligent and vain. When Michiru gets bored (Note the word: "Bored" since Haruka's not around to keep her company), she would do the cosmetics so she can stay looking good.  After all, we had wondered how she managed to stay pretty for much of time. ^_^

I would like to express my thanks to:
    Meagan Sanders for editing and double-checking the grammar as well as her advice on handling sensitive Christian matters.
    Eric "MHE" for help with grammar & reprising the words.
   Anyone who helped by spotting the typos.

     It seems that Chibiusa haven't caught all of those little devils yet, so watch out for their nasty little pranks. ^_^:;
