isa the great aka karmen krowe

So I haven't upload anything in a bit, and for that I am truly sorry. I know people
were looking forward to me getting some of my stories finished for the first time in
like ever. however, sadly, this will probably not be happening. over the next few weeks
I will probably be taking down stories I know for a fact I will never finish- or stories
that I simply do not like anymore. I am still planning on finishing the senshi stories
that I had started because they still interest me. I am trying to figure out how best
to write sailor mercury's story. I can already say that sailor venus' story may end up
written in a different style than everyone else's because I sense so much in her story.
she was a leader. she was betrayed. she watched her friends die. It'll be dramatic for
all involved. I want to start working on a sailor venus story separate than the senshi
stories I'm working on now. I'll see how things go. Also another note, soon I am
thinking of changing my pen name from Karmen Krowe to Isa The Great. If you are
wondering why the change, well its easy. Karmen Krowe was a character in my friend's
story that she wrote to represent me. While I am still great friends with her, it has been
years since I've used the name, preferring to go by the name Isa The Great on the
computer. Its much simpler to have all my work credited to the same name. Now
here's a small taste of something I'll be working on. Enjoy!

THE HEART OF VENUS

She lay on her bed, looking up endlessly at the ceiling, as if finding all the rugged edges fascinating,
but she was millions of miles away. She was back to that horrid day, when reality crashed down around
her. It had happened so long ago, but her memories were fully intact. Minako Aino was cursed to remember
everything that had happened during the finale battle for the Moon Kingdom. She was a leader, and she held
the burdens of her teammates past lives on her shoulders. She couldn't tell Ami how she had been the first to
die. She couldn't tell Matoko that once she killed her lover she had called forth her power and killed herself. Nor
could she tell Rei that her lover had killed her and how Venus had struck down Rei's true love. She couldn't tell
any of them. As their leader, she would burden what they would never know. But it wasn't the burden of this
knowledge that ate away at Minako. It was him. He had stolen the heart of Venus, and he never returned it.
Not even when he betrayed her.
