Mina's Lovelife
By: Jessica Willmington Bailey

She's MIA- Rated PG

Hiya Peoples! Okay everyone here's where the plot thickens, who is Andros
and why do the others dislike him so much? You'll find out in this chapter!I
would like to thank Disha and Celeste for their ever coming nice comments, I
would also like to thank my crazy editor, Lena. Without her, none of this
would have been possible. And for everyone else that I missed, I love you
too.

Disclamier: I don't own Sailormoon and Co.. So go ahead and
try to sue me, you won't get much.

Mina made her way home to change her clothes. She had to meet Andros at the
park in an hour. She changed into her orange sundress and fixed her make-up.
After giving herself one last glance in the mirror, she grabbed her purse
and left.

On her nightstand was her orange communicator, the one way that her friends
had to find her in case of trouble.

Mina arrived at the park to find Andros waiting for her, picnic basket in
hand.

"Hey, Mina."

"Hi, Andros." Mina said witha smile.

"Hey, do you want to go somewhere a little more private?" Andros asked.

"Like where?"

"Well, I know a pretty little spot by the river."

"Sure, sounds great."

"Shall we then?" Andros asked, extending his hand to her.

"We shall." Mina said, taking his hand.

Andros led Mina to his car and they drove to Andros' spot. It was a tiny
cabin on the riverbank. Mina liked the place and set up the picnic blanket
on the bank.

Andros smiled and sat down on the blue cloth. He took out the food and a
pitcher of juice.

"What is that?" Mina asked as her poured the red liquid into glasses.

"Cranberry Juice." he replied.

"Okay, cool."

The two sat quietly and munched on the sandwiches that Andros had brought.

"So, Mina, tell me about yourself." Andros said.

"Well, I'm 16 and i live with my parents. I have Artemis, whom you've
already met. You go to my schol and you've met most of my friends." Mina
said.

"Most? Who haven't I met?"

"Well there's Amara and Michelle."

"Amara Ten'ou and Michelle Kaioh?" Andros asked, immediately looking scared.

"Yes, I think you went to school with them."

"Yeah."

"So what else do you want to know?"

"Well, what do you do in your free time?" "Hang out with my friends, shop,
F-1 racing at the arcade, shop, and sing." Mina said, counting on her
fingers.

Andros laughed at the girl's energy.

"So what about you?" Mina asked.

"Well, I'm 18 and I live with my mom. I don't have any pets and you go to my
school. So you know all of my classes."

"What do you do in your free time?"

"Hang out with my friends."

"Who are?"

"You, Ethan and Jeremy."

"Oh." Mina said, fiddling with an orange fingernail.

Andros handed her her glass and chuckled.

"So timid now?" Andros teased.

"Well, my friends don't exactly trust you."

"Doesn't surprise me. Most people don't trust people that they don't know."

Mina finished her glass and looked at the boy sitting before her. Her vision
was slightly blurry and she shook her head in an attempt to clear it.

"Mina, what's wrong?" Andros asked.

His voice seemed to be a million miles away and she swayed slightly.

"I'm not feeling all that well suddenly..." she trailed off as she blacked
out.

"World Shaking!"

"Jupiter Thunder Clap Zap!"

The two attacks hit the heartsnatcher and it staggered.

"Sailor Moon!" Mars yelled, trying to fend of one of the distractions made
by the heartsnatcher.

"Moon Crisis Power! Rainbow Moon Heart Ache!"

The attack destroyed the monster which reverted to a ship wheel. The heart
crystal was returned to the sailor and Sailor Moon looked around.

"Where's Sailor Venus?" she asked.

"She never showed up." Mercury said.

"That's not like her. Something must be wrong." Jupiter said.

"Then again, she's been acting very strange lately." Mars said.

"Her personal problems aren't important, it's her duty as a sailor scout to
be here." Uranus said.

"I agree." Neptune said.

Sailor Moon took out her communicator and pushed the ornage button with a
sigh.

"Moon to Venus."

No answer came over the comm-link.

"Mina, pick up!"

"Strange, her communicator signal is coming from her house." Mercury said.

"Well, then let's go over there and give her a peice of our minds." Mars
said.

The group returned to their regular appearances and arrived at Mina's house
in short time.

Serena knocked on the door and no answer came. She tried to doorknob and
found it locked. She sighed and took the spare key out from under the flower
pot.

"How did you know that was there, Serena?" Amy asked.

"Where do you think I go when I get tired of Luna's constant nagging?
Raye's?" Serena rplied, unlocking the door.

Luna mumbled something under her breath and followed Artemis up the stairs.

"She's not here." Artmis said, " But her communicator is upstairs. From the
looks of it, she changed and went somewhere, forgetting her communicator."

"I don't like this, something is wrong here." Raye said.

"Yeah, she may be ticked at us, but she takes her duty very seriously. I
don't think that I've ever seen her without her communicator. Ever." Lita
said.

"Well let's split up and check all of her favorite places. Use the
communicators to contact everyone if you find her." Amara said.

"Right." the groups agreed, going their separate ways.

"She's not at the cafe." Michelle said.
"She's not at the park." Raye said.
"She's not at the pond." Lita said.
"She's not at the arcade." Serena said.
"She's not at the shopping center." Amara said.
"She's not at the school." Artemis said.
"She's not at the restaurant." Amy said.
"She's not at the playground." Rini said
"She still isn't home." Luna said.

The group, unsuccessful, randevoued at the park.

"Where can she be?" Serena asked, frustrated and starting to worry.

"I'm starting to get worried. It's going to be dark soon." Artemis said,
worry etched on his feline features.

"Can anyone think of another way of contacting her?" Amy asked, "Something
we might have overlooked?"

Amara snapped her fingers, "Artemis, does Mina have a cell phone?"

"Yes, but I dn't know if she has it on her." Artemis said.

"It's worth a try, what's the number?" Amara asked, pulling out her phone.

Artemis gave her the number and prayed that it would work.

*We are sorry but the number that you have dialed is out of the calling
area.*

"Damn! She's out of the calling area? Amy, how wide is the calling area?"

"It reaches the outskirts of the city, why?"

"Because that would mean that Mina is no longer in the city."

"What!?!" the group exclaimed.

"Her phone is out of the calling area, which means somewhere outside of the
city."

"She wouldn't just up and leave, would she?" Rini asked.

Raye sat quietly, concentrating. She got a flash of Mina being someplace
dark and gasped.

"I think that Mina is in real trouble, you guys." Raye said.

Michelle agreed.

"The mirror shows her someplace dark and from what I could tell,
unconcious." Michelle said.

"Damn! She's in trouble and we have no way of finding her." Lita said,
hitting a tree with her fist.

"Maybe not. Has anybody seen Andros today?" Amara asked.

"No, why?" Serena asked.

"Because over the past two days, thoses two have been attached at the hip."
Amara said.

"Amara, you don't think..." Michelle started.

"I do. we'll find Mina when we find Andros. And hopefully we'll find her in
time." Amara said.
*~*~*~*~*
Mina woke up a few hours later. She sat up and the room spun. Moaning, she
lowered herslef back down to the mattress. While lying there she tried to
figure out where she was and what had happened. She remembered eating with
Andros and the conversation that they had had. But after that her mind was
a big blank. She struggled to a sitting position and looked around her.
Bleak walls and a lamp in the corner. Something felt different about her too
and she gasped when she saw what she was wearing. It was an orange dress
that hugged her body from knee to top and flared out at the knee. She didn't
like it, for one thing it was tight and for another thing, it was showing
way to much cleavage for her liking. Also her hair was different, it was
pulled up in a high braided bun and her bow was gone.

She panicked slightly and felt around for her transformation wand.

"Andros?" she sqeaked.

"Ah, so sleeping beauty finally decided to wake up." Andros said with a
smile.

"What happened. Where are we?" Mina asked.

"We are in my home, princess."

"What? Why are you acting so wierd, Andros?"

"I'm not acting, my dear."

"Where are we?"

"I believe you know it as 30th century Crystal Tokyo."

"What! How did this..."

"Happen? Simple. Time travel is not hard. My mother always warned us not to
fall in love with the enemy." Andros sighed.

"Your mother? Who's your mother?"

"Queen Crysantine of Nemesis."

"Nemesis?! So you're form the nega-verse!" mina said, gripping her wand
tightly.

"Hmmm, I guess that I didn't learn from the mistakes of my brother."

"Your brother?"

"Yes, he's dead now. Thanks to you and your friends, Sailor Venus. My oldest
brother was Prince Diamond. By the way, my real name is Azurite."

*Okay this is bad. How could you be so stupid!*

"Venus Star Power!" she yelled.

Nothing happened and Mina froze.

"Surprised? You can't transform when you are so near the dark crystal."

"We destroyed the dark crsytal almost a year ago."

"Not quite, Sailor Venus. My mother kept a peice of the dark crystal with
her on Nemesis and now its grown to a much larger size." Azurite said.

"My friends will find me."

"Not likely, we are in the future and they have no clue."

"What do you want, Azurite?"

"Simple. I want to avenge the death's of my brothers and finish what they
started. With you by my side as my queen."

"Dream on! There is no way that I am going to be your queen."

"Oh, you will eventually. You may find me to be very persuasive, princess."
Azurite said.

Mina swung her legs over the side of the bed and glared at the boy.

"I'm not staying here and you can't make me." Mina protested.

"On the contrary, my dear. I can make you stay as long as I like." he said,
taking her by the wrist.

Let me go!" she yelped.

The dark moon of his forehead became and third eye and she stopped
struggling.

"I didn't want it to be this way but since you are being difficult..."

Azurite inched his face closer to Mina and she panicked, unable to control
her body.

*No this isn't supposed to happen. I'm supposed to be with my friends. I'm
so sorry, guys.*

Azurite crushed his lips to her's and she gave a mental cry of anguish.
Black energy surrounded her and her eyes became clouded with grey.

"Now, my queen, let's see what we can do about this city." Azurite said with
an evil grin.
*~*~*~*~*

"So as you can see, Raye, we have no need for..." Mina said.

"Mina, are you alright?" Raye asked, seeing her friend's pale face.

Mina looked at her hand and gasped.

"I don't think so..." Mina trailed as she gipped the table.

Raye rushed over to her and helped her sit down.

"What's wrong?" Raye asked.

"I don't know..."

"Something has happened to her past self." Pluto's voice said.

"What's going to happen to her?" Raye asked.

"She'll dissappear for a time until the paradox is found and fixed." Pluto
explained.

"Don't worry, Mina, we'll fix this. Pluto, do you know where the shift
happened?" Raye asked.

"When she was witha boy in the 20th century. I also detected someone using
time travel this afternoon. As far as I can tell, they stopped in this time
period."

"So, we have some time hopper somewhere in the city and Mina's in danger in
the 20th century. Could my day get any worse?" Raye snapped.

"Raye!" Lita yelled.

"What now?"

"Someone named Azurite is demanding that we meet with him. He says that he
has something that we may find very interesting. He looks really familier
too." Lita said.

"Call Amara, Michelle, Hotaru and Amy. Get them back here now. Pluto, you go
back to the past and see if you can fix the problem with Mina." Raye said.

Pluto nodded and dissappeared in a flash of crimson light.

Lita called the others and informed them of the situation and told them to
get their collective butts back to the palace.
