Chapter 1

A/N: Hello! This is my first fan fiction! I am so excited to be posting this on because I love writing and really want to share my stories with the world. I used to watch the Sailor Moon anime a lot (Sailor Rallison got me into it, and you should really check out her story it's really good!) But then I purchased the first Sailor Moon manga. Needless to say, I am a massive book nerd, I am also a massive Sailor Moon nerd, Mix them together and you get delicious nutritious manga! I read through that and then started on the Sailor V mangas to try those out. I was like OMG what have I been missing, Sailor V is my favorite over Sailor moon because Mina is more relatable as a character than Usagi, (plus dosen't Mina sound so much better than Usagi?)

Some notes for no confusion. If you are not a Sailor V fan, then you have nothing to worry about. Things will go along swimmingly. If you ARE in fact a true fan then I have to warn you that things get a bit messed up. (Example: Mina has her transformation pen at the time she has a crush on Hagashi-Sempai.) Do not fret; this is just to make it more interesting and different from the manga. This story takes place approx. modern time. Could be in the future from 2012, could be a little bit in the past. But anyway it is basically in the 90's-future 20's. Use your imagination.

Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon, Sailor V, or anything else I mention in this story including the following chapters after this one. Sorry for making you wait so long, SO READ ON!

Chapter One

This story takes place in a bright orange and white bedroom. A little lump under the light orange covers dotted with white hearts stirred. A pretty and athletic girl of 13 popped out from under the covers. She had bright blue eyes and a mess of tangled long blonde hair. A white male cat with a crescent moon shaped bald spot on his forehead jumped up on the girl's bed and let out a loud meow.

"Don't be so loud, Artemis. It's six thirty in the morning; you'll wake up mom and dad…" the girl muttered groggily. Lifting herself out of bed, the cat, Artemis, was thrown off.

"Watch it Mina! It's not like I am a ragdoll, you know." Artemis lectured. Yes, he was a talking cat, sent to train Mina to become the champion of justice, Sailor Venus.

"Shut up, Artemis!" Mina whispered, "If mom and dad hear you, people will take you away and do, like, tests on you!" Mina ran into her bathroom in a flurry of blonde hair and orange pajamas. Artemis sat outside her door as he heard her turn the water on in the shower.

"Don't take too long, Mina!" Artemis called through the door. The time passed until it was nearly seven o'clock, and Mina was still in the bathroom.

"Come out Mina, you're going to be late for school!" Artemis yelled at Mina through the off white door. (A/N: Sailor Rallison, more off-white jokes coming!)

"But I have to look amazing for Hagashi-Sempai!" Mina exclaimed, throwing open the door. Artemis flew across the room and hit the wall, sliding down it with a bunch of hideous squeaking noises. Mina continued, " He's the love of my life!" She thrust her hands over her heart, including the one that was holding a dripping black mascara wand. It streamed black stripes down her nice, fresh pajamas.

"Mina, get dressed! It's almost 6:49!" Artemis exclaimed, pulling himself off the bright orange wall. Mina quickly turned her eyes to the jeweled, hot pink and orange star shaped alarm clock. The white block letters flashed 6:49. Artemis was right. Mina ran into the closet and opened the door a crack, hanging the bleach white towel on the shiny gold hanger stuck on her door. A minute later, Mina ran into her bedroom in a Usage, a sailor style customary Japanese school uniform. Everyone at her school wore them, but she liked to personalize hers with her Sailor V socks and light purple flats. She tied a big red ribbon in her hair. Mina hoped Hagashi-Sempai liked it; it was 2 minutes before the bus would get to her house, and she hadn't even eaten breakfast!

"Go, Mina! Go!" Artemis yelled, nudging her down the stairs. Mina grabbed a cinnamon bun and her backpack and ran out the door, but the bus had already left.

"Oh great Mina. Now you'll have to walk to school. You'll be late for sure!" Artemis groaned. Mina ignored him and continued to walk down the sidewalk while eating her cinnamon bun. The Minato Ward Shiba Park Middle School was located on the outskirts of downtown Tokyo.

"Why don't you take the subway?" Artemis suggested, "You might even make it on time."

"I can't," Mina protested, "I spent all my money on games at the game crown."

"You spend more time doing that than training to be the champion of justice!" Artemis lectured, Mina just tuned him out.

"I didn't even agree to this, and I should at least be paid." Mina scoffed, looking back at Artemis with a glowering look in her eyes.

"What? Mina! Sailor V is your past, present, and future! And how could you expect to be paid for helping innocent, helpless people!" Artemis exclaimed in horror.

"Well then maybe we could work out a reward plan…" Mina started, but Artemis cut her off.

"Did you even hear me, Mina? This is your destiny! Not your part time job so you can save up for a car!" Artemis screamed. Mina didn't respond, she just kept on walking. She gobbled up the last bite of her cinnamon bun and licked the icing off of her fingers. Artemis mumbled something to himself, but Mina couldn't tell what he was saying.

"Mina! Over here!" A voice called, it was Hikaru-Chan. Mina and her had been buddies since grade school.

"Hey, Hikaru! Wanna walk to school with me?" Mina exclaimed, running over to her friend.

"No thanks, it's supposed to rain today. I'm going to take the subway." Hikaru said, "Wanna come with me?"

"Sorry, Hikaru. I'm broke." Mina mumbled, "I'll see ya at school."

"Okay. Bye, Mina! See ya!" Hikaru chirped, waving goodbye as she disappeared into the fluorescent lighted, bustling subway station. There was a blood-curling scream.

"Mina!" Artemis cried, "I sense evil in that subway, we have to get inside! Use your pen!" Mina got out her pen and held it in the air.
