 "The storm begins...."

     That's what I would describe the Sailor Uranus: The Wrath of War being somewhat fast paced and plenty of actions (plus some crazy humor).  As typical of the war themed stories, and "PG13", there will be some bloody scenes and MINOR cases of nudity (Minako's shower gets rather rudely interrupted). Don't worry about it, the "peeping toms" won't be getting to enjoy any views. ^_~ Beleive it or not, partial nudity is quite common in mangas, but I don't have any problems with them. We go nude when we take baths, showers or change clothes, right? Beside Rei made me do that to Minako. ^_^;;;
    I have to admit even having finished the script in no time, but the drawing process of this Uranus manga had been most delayed of any fanfic mangas I have done so far (Haruka is claiming that Minako is to be blamed for all of those delays). Too many things happened, but let's hope that what happened to Uranus manga didn't happen to Neptune chapter... I did learn new new special effects tricks like motion related blurring, and few others. The Fanfic mangas are very useful when it comes to experimenting with my drawing and computer editing skills. ^_^
    I had been doing research on Russia, and its military.  Despite finding diagrams of military uniforms, military issue motorcycles, and few Soviet tanks, I didn't find much about Russian military which doesn't surprise me since they tend to keep anything military classified from their enemies. That's why I didn't include any info on precisely where in European Russia are Haruka and Minako, and Russian keeps their military base locations somewhat secret.. ^_^;;

I would like to express my thanks to:
    Rich Anderson for his suggestions and helping with the designs of the Four Horsemen characters.
    Meagan Sanders for editing and double-checking the grammar.
    Eric "MHE" for help with grammar & reprising the words.
   Anyone who helped by spotting the typos.

Guess that's all, and some words from the Sponsors:
-Watch for a black cat with big eyes looking like this:  Her name is Athena and that's my cat. ^_^

-Notes from Chibiusa:
   Beware! The little devils have escaped from the studios intending to produce for Chibiusa's own fanfic manga. They are very small but dangerousily mischievous. Care must be taken to avoid them, otherwise, they'll pull nasty pranks on you. We're working hard to capture all of them and return them to the studios. Be careful!
