Note: Ok yall, this is my first fic, so be kind to me.It set in the Silver Millennium on Venus. Mina grew up as a normal kid, but he mother really was Aphrodite, major big secret. Aphrodite, also know as Angel, is talking to Mina, 8 years old.

Silver Millennium, Planet Venus

"Mina? Can you come here please?" called Angel.

"Sure Momma!! Here I come!!!" squealed Mina as she happily jumped on her mom's lap. "what did you wanna tell me??"

"Well sweetie, you're going to be leaving soo." Angel was cut off by Mina, who was very much against the idea.

"NO! You can't send me away!! I want to stay here with you!!"

"Sweetie, you're only going to the moon, you're going to protect the princess! It's a great honor!"

"but momma.." Whined Mina "I just wanna be a little girl! Stay here with YOU!"

"Honny, you're a very SPECIAL little girl, you have very strong powers in you that can help protect the entire solar system, you must be trained. You have been blessed by the goddess of love, Aphrodite." It was strange to Angel to talk of herself this way, but over the years she had become more used to it. She was very upset about her daughter's stubborn determination to not go, the fact was, no one else could do the job. Only a person with the blood of the gods could wield their powers. Should a mere human try, they would most certainly be killed, though no one knew that for certain. No one had ever been willing to put it to the test.

"But MOMMA!!!!"

"Minako, you're going, that is final." Angel hated to be so strict, but it HAD to be done.

Mina knew she was in trouble now. No one ever called her Minako unless she was in BIG trouble. She only hoped there wouldn't be any more. (AN: sorry, had to do this..)

"and," Angel began, Mina's hopes were dashed right then. There was more alright. "you are to marry one of the warriors of Earth." Angel said this very quickly, she hated having to do this, she really did, but she knew it would be alright, she wasn't the goddess of love for nothing after all.

"Momma, no! I can't!! I don't want to marry for politics! I want it to be for love! Like you and daddy!" Mina said with a pout, "It's not FAIR!"

Angel winced inside, yes she had married for love, but she had not wanted to. She HAD to marry a mortal to produce a child. It was the only way. At least she was allowed to choose which mortal! (AN: In this story, senshi are born by the union of a god or goddess with a mortal of their planet. It was ordained that a senshi must be produced from each planet in order to protect the Princess.)

"I'm sorry, but do not worry, you will find love!" With that Angel left, leaving Mina even more confused than before. It would be a long time before Mina saw her again.
