CHAPTER 1
Minako
Some people say that remaining vigilant is the key to success and survival. I never really appreciated this much even though I believed it. But those two days spent in Fujima will forever haunt me, and probably my friends.
My name is Aino Minako and I'm a student at Juuban High School in Tokyo. I'm also a Sailor Senshi, Sailor Venus to be precise. My friends, the other Senshi and myself fight to right wrongs and triumph over evil. I'm going to tell you about what happened to us immediately after defeating Galaxia, the hardest enemy we had ever faced up until that point. It all started at Hikawa temple the evening after…
"Hey Usagi-chan!" I shouted to my friend Usagi as I ran up the steps to the temple.
"How come you're here early? You haven't been brainwashed, have you?"
"Comedy." Usagi replied as she acknowledged my presence. "Rei-chan and I were discussing what we're going to do now that there's no enemy."
"You mean there appears to be no enemy." Luna, Usagi's talking guardian cat put in. I have a guardian cat too, his name's Artemis and he almost permanently sits on my shoulder or stays close by my feet.
"Yeah." Rei agreed as I sat down beside her. "I suggested that we all take a break away from Tokyo for a few days, near a beach resort."
My ears pricked up like that of a rabbit's at the mention of the word 'beach.' I love relaxing in the sun.
"Did somebody say beach?" Came a voice from the direction of the steps. It was Ami and Makoto just arriving.
"Yeah." I said to them as they joined us. "Usagi-chan and Rei-chan thought about taking a break near a beach for a few days."
"Wonderful." Replied Ami. "That gives me some time to relax and study."
I give up sometimes, Ami was going to spend time on the beach STUDYING?!
All the arrangements were made and the resort was booked. Usagi and myself had poured over a brochure advertising the place, which was reasonably big. It had cafes, a huge beach with golden sands and plenty of nightlife to name but a few things. Perfect for a girl who wanted to get away from it all. The place itself was called Fujima, and I will never forget that name.
We caught the bullet train early in the morning for the hour and a half journey to the resort, which was around eighty kilometres north of Tokyo. There were nine of us all together, Usagi, Rei, Ami, Makoto, Haruka, Michiru, Setsuna, Hotaru and myself. The gang of nine. Our cats were coming with us, but they had to be kept in cat baskets in the luggage van. This wasn't necessarily a bad thing, for we could get on with girl gossip without Luna or Artemis spoiling the occasion.
"Have you seen the beach?" Usagi asked Hotaru, who was sitting in the corner next to me. She shrugged.
"No. I haven't read the brochure, let alone seen it."
"Here," I said to her, whipping out my copy. "You can borrow mine."
"Thanks, Minako-chan." She replied, giving me a small smile. "You're a great friend."
I always feel warm inside when someone says it to me. Even more so this time because it was Hotaru, a girl who'd never had much love in her life. In fact, she'd died more times than was reasonably healthy. This may sound strange, but all nine of us had been killed in battle at least once, but because we were Sailor Senshi, the power of the Ginzuishou allowed us to be resurrected.
I put my hands behind my head and sighed. Relaxation time. I felt my eyes begin to close but before I could fall asleep, Haruka, ever the gentle girl, slapped me lightly on the cheek.
"Wake up, Minako-chan. Now's not the time to sleep!" She giggled. I snapped back into full consciousness and glared at her.
"I could kill you for that." I said to her. "I could, but I won't. At least not yet."
"Better watch it, Haruka-chan." Hotaru said to her. "Minako-chan may look as tough as a feather but she can hold a grudge."
"You keep out of this." I snapped back at her, not angrily, but more in the spirit of having fun. She smiled sweetly at me then burst out laughing.
Rei was giggling, obviously at my expense, Ami was nose deep in a book and Usagi was busy staring out of the window, daydreaming as usual. Setsuna was reading, as was Hotaru. Michiru was busy slapping makeup on her face. I HATE it when she acts like that. I'M supposed to be the beautiful scout!
Our arrival in Fujima was inconsequential. We caught a taxi to our hotel, which was, as it happened, a stone's throw from the beach. There were two of us to each room, and, damn my horrible luck, if I wasn't sharing a room with goof queen Usagi. As it transpired, it was Rei in conspiracy with Ami, who had sorted out the rooms. I drew the short straw.
However, it wasn't as bad as it would first appear. Usagi floated about the room, organising her stuff. She'd brought more than me! All two suitcases of it!
"Usagi-chan, we're only here for a few days, not a few weeks!" I pointed out to her.
"Leave off, Minako-chan." She replied. "I need all of this stuff."
How she could possibly need two bathing suits, four pairs of sunglasses, infinite pairs of shoes and God knows how many different outfits? I thought I was the bad one, bringing one large suitcase packed with similar stuff.
"Leave some wardrobe space for me, won't you?" I reminded her.
"There's plenty of room."
"For your stuff maybe, but what about mine?"
"Well, you didn't need to bring a baggage train did you?"
"Look who's talking!"
"Say's you who's always checking out guys."
I had to hand it to her, it was a brilliant way of changing the tack of the argument, an argument about luggage that she would eventually lose. We continued our minor disagreement, and it would have ended with name calling if Rei hadn't charged in and put a stop to it.
"For crying out loud you two, you're just like a pair of little schoolchildren." She told us.
Usagi and myself glared at her, making her feel uncomfortable. This was the biggest mistake we could have made that day.
"Don't look at me like that!" She scolded. "Get your stuff unpacked. Hurry up, I want to be on the beach within fifteen minutes."
She turned on her heel and stomped out of the room. Usagi and me exchanged glances.
"You know." I said to her. "I think Rei-chan would have been better off taking a holiday on her own."
"You two should listen to what she says." Artemis told us. "She's wiser than most of you."
I responded to this by throwing a pillow at him.
As it turned out, we were all down on the beach before Rei, and she didn't take too kindly to this. If you must know, I had a quiet word with Ami, who agreed to delay Rei as long as possible. I don't know why she agreed so early. I think that she thought that Rei needed to simmer down a bit and enjoy life.
We spent the rest of the afternoon on the beach enjoying the sun and splashing about in the sea. Lita, Haruka, Setsuna and myself got ourselves involved in a game of beach volleyball with some totally gorgeous guys! Both me and Lita couldn't help flirting after the game, which we won incidentally, probably due to my years on the volleyball team at Grass Valley Junior High.
Up until that point there was nothing unusual or strange about the place. There was however talk about an international company called Umbrella having built the town for its employees, but I didn't listen much. Business means nothing to me. Later the word Umbrella would reduce me to such a frightened wreck that people were very careful what they said. This lasted for about a year or so.
On our return journey to the hotel, we noticed a few people shuffling along clumsily. None of us paid them any attention, we just assumed they were tired or something. We got back to the hotel, had an excellent dinner, which Usagi wolfed down and got ready for an evening out.
I pride myself on being ready to go out within the space of ten minutes after having a shower. I'm quicker than the average girl (whose name isn't Michiru or Usagi) and that gave me time to try and advise others on what to wear, purely so they couldn't outmatch me. I had decided to wear a lovely red dress with a few frills on. Teamed up with a pair of high-heeled shoes, I was ready for anything.
Hotaru was a little nervous - she'd never been out on the town before in her life so this would be a new experience for her. I showed her how to wear a skirt a little shorter than was actually necessary, purely to show a little more leg. She blushed when she saw how pretty she looked in the mirror, but she wasn't as nice as me though, hehehe!
Naturally Michiru wore possibly the nicest dress out of the entire group - except Haruka who wore a tux, that girl still confuses me - and I hated her for it. She always manages to outshine me.
However, when we got outside it was clear that all was not well. There were far more people shuffling about than there had been earlier.
"What's going on?" Usagi asked us all. Rei looked uneasy.
"What is it, Rei-chan?" I enquired.
"I sense evil." She replied absently.
There was a loud crash behind us as several people broke the hotel window and climbed through. They were heading straight for us! There was something distinctly odd about them. I noticed that their eyes were a milky grey-white colour all over. That wasn't natural. Their arms were outstretched and reaching for us. We backed away from them uneasily.
"D…don't come any closer." I found myself saying. Interestingly enough Rei was thinking the same thing.
"Stay back, do you hear?" She said to them, her voice quivering.
Hotaru spun round to face the other direction and gasped. More people were coming for us from the other direction. None of this was right. What were they? It was clear that they were no longer humans. It as Ami that worked it out and probably saved our lives.
"They're zombies!" She exclaimed and we all agreed with her instantly. I think we all subconsciously knew what they were but needed somebody else to say the right word.
They were coming from all sides now, closing in for the kill.
"What do we do now?" Michiru asked.
"Transform!" Luna shouted to us from the hotel window. She'd seen everything. Artemis was with her. They didn't need to tell me twice.
"VENUS CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!" I shouted and I felt my body fill with energy. Within moments I was Sailor Venus, the guardian of love. The others took their cue.
"MOON PRISM POWER MAKE-UP!"
"MERCURY CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!"
"MARS CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!"
"JUPITER CRYSTAL POWER MAKE-UP!"
"URANUS PLANET POWER MAKE-UP!"
"NEPTUNE PLANET POWER MAKE-UP!"
"PLUTO PLANET POWER MAKE-UP!"
"SATURN PLANET POWER MAKE-UP!"
The nine of us stood there, unsure what to do. It was Hotaru that chose for us. Stepping forward she held the Silence Glaive in front of her. I knew what was coming.
"DEATH REBORN REVOLUTION!" She shouted and her attack blasted into the mass of zombies. Numerous went down, shredded to pieces but a couple got up again. I didn't want to hang around.
"VENUS CRESCENT BEAM SMASH!" I shouted, and released the energy from my finger. I spun round, avoiding my friends but carving up the zombies. We now had a clear path.
"Let's get out of here!" Usagi shouted.
"Wait for us!" Shouted Luna and our two cats jumped down. I ran back and picked them up before catching up with the others. I ran alongside Ami.
"I don't know about you, Ami-chan." I said to her. "But this was certainly not the holiday I had in mind."
"I know." She replied.
"So what do we do?"
"Just keep running."
We rounded the corner of the street and nearly ran into the path of a group of zombies. We turned to go in the other direction, but there was another group coming towards us. We were trapped in the middle!
