Proper Chinese Amazons, and so unlike the ones currently in China in many respects. The new timeline settled into place, and the village was changed slightly but the path of these four in particular.
"Wow," said Sailor Moon, "I can sorta remember."
"You did a Sailor Teleport to find Jedite had gone to ground and taken over the Chinese Amazon Village utilizing power from Beryl," explained Panecchi. "There you and the other Senshi defeated several of the ensorcelled villagers, and ended up saving them and the village from destruction. Instead of the Kiss Of Death for defeating them, you had these four swear to serve you and assist you in the construction of your kingdom."
"We have four Amazons as bodyguards of the Princess?" asked Makoto, wondering if she sparred with any/all of them.
"Haruka, the swordswoman," said Artemis, gesturing at the shorthaired blonde in the cheongsam, who was quite obviously feminine in appearance despite the short hair. That and she had a size huge two-handed sword slung behind her. No costume jewelry sword this, but a black blade that when activated was awash in images of stars and the inky darkness of space. Haruka was now a Chinese Amazon whose skills in the sword made her a village champion.
"Michiru, the mystic," said Nike. Though her hair now hung to her waist, it was clearly Michiru. At her belt hung a mirror on one side, various pouches on the other. "Healer, seer, and reader of oracles."
"Akane the Hammer," said Athena. "A warrior who has taken Shampoo's place as the great granddaughter of Cologne and a village champion." Akane hung there in midair, what appeared to be a croquet mallet strapped to her back, looking peaceful and serene in her trance.
"Azusa the Sneak," said Hestia. "A collector of cute things, who has long had a crush on the true love of her life - Akane the Hammer."
"A certain balance there, don't you think? Two pairs of girls, each of whom finds... comfort in each other's arms?" said Panecchi. "Hmmm. Though if it's requited that isn't as much fun."
"'Fun'?" Ranma asked with a sinking sensation in his stomach. Akane and Azusa?! Gakkk!
"It's not as much of a change as you might think," Hestia assured Ranma. "Azusa always adored things which were cute and Akane always had that tendency. It's just encouraged a little more and their upbringing insists that there is nothing wrong with affection between girls."
"Gakk!" said Ranma.
"Hmmm," said Panecchi as the two pairs awakened.
