Defying Destiny
Ch.1 It Begins
Minako sighed as she listened to her friends' exclamations.
They had been so caught up in the idea of her going to Earth that they
were, at this very moment, in an uproar. Everyting was happening so
fast... it seemed like only yesterday when she had decided to go. The
day she held her monthly meeting with Pluto to brief her about the
Outer Senshi and the happenings outside the solar system...
**********
Minako hurriedly walked towards the confrence room. She
couldn't be late for this meeting, Setsuna was a busy woman. Turning down
the hall, her high-heels taping lightly on the marble floor, she glanced out the
window. Pluto had always been an eerie planet. Being so far from the sun made
it dark and the only light seemed to be emitting from the surface of the planet.
She sighted and shook her head, plutonian magic had always been, odd. They
seemed to have been able to mix many different types of magic, coming up with
some very unusual spells, inculding the light coming from the soil. Entering the
confrence room, she saw Setsuna staring out a window as she was moments
before.
"You're early." Setsuna stated without turning around to look at
the golden senshe. She had been that way since Minako could remember.
She knew everything before it happened. After all, she was the Guardian
of Time.
"I planed on being early. Besides, you can never tell if those
damn teleportation devices will work." She repleid getting a smile from
Setsuna. "Anyway Sets, how's the outers?" she asked.
"They are fine..." she replied, pausing to gather her thoughts,
"Haruka is being her usual self. She got into another fight with her father
and they arn't speaking."
"A fight? So the King of Uranus isn't speaking to his only
daughter? As if that planet didn't have enough problems." She
finished with a smile. Uranus lately had been haveing problems with the
people of Saturn and this fight wouldn't make things any better. "And
the others?" Minako adderd shortly.
"Saturn of course is in training to control her powers. I
mighty add she is doing very well for someone of her age. Neptune
on the other hand is having some problems. It seemes the ocean is
restless and, though Uranus doesn't feel any change in the wind, she still
consulted the mirror."
"And..." Minako urged. It had been awhile since anything
happened.
"It kept on showing her the symbol of Earth." Setsuna
finished.
"Earth? Wouldn't Mars have felt something?" Minako asked,
eyes wide.
"Perhaps, but remember Mars is in training to become a queen.
Not only has she not had time to consult the Sacred Fire, but her training
has taken a lot out of her. Her powers aren't as sharp." Setsuna finished.
It was true, Rei had been drained the last couple of weeks.
After all, it is unusual to see a Senshi who was both solider and queen.
Yet the number was exceptionally high this generation. Not only was
Mars an only child but so was Neptune and even Minako herself But that
didn't explain Uranus. Haruka was very intuned with her element. Was it
possible that the fight with her father had somehow thrown her powers off?
Minako sighed in frustration.
"How much do you know of this Setsuna?" Minako asked, not
really expecting an answer.
Setsuna shrugged, "Even if I did, I couldn't tell you. You know that."
Minako nodded and said, "Then I guess we have nothing more to talk
about. Goodbye Setsuna." Minako finished as she turned to leave. But right when
she reached the door, Setsuna stopped her.
"Venus," she said causing Minako to raise her head at the mention of her
formal name. "I warn you, before the end of your leadership of the Senshi the winds
of time will change and destiny will have its way. The lives of everyone in this system
will change forever.... Now go, I've said too much already." Setsuna finished as her
form slowly faded to that of Pluto's.
"Remember...." Where her last words before dissapering back to the gates,
leaving Minako alone in her thoughts.
Standing there, alone. Minako began to realize what was just said. It was
then that an idea was born. She would go to Earth and figure out what the mirror was
trying to tell Neptune.
**********
Pluto stood watching the time pattern slowly change. New, unexpected events
would occur, but nothing would change what would happen. She sighed and shook her
head. They would all die trying to protect what they couldn't. No one would live, at
least in this lifetime....
**********
Minako's mind slowly drifted back into the present realizing that Rei was
talking to her.
"So? Are you going to answer me or not?" She asked impatiently,
"Why are you going to Earth?"
Minako blinked, should she tell them everything? Her eyes narrowed as
she came to a decision. "I will breif all of you later. But right now lets enjoy the picnic."
She glanced at Rei hoping she bought it. She couldn't tell them in front of Sere. She
Had promised the queen that she wouldn't tell her. Selenity didn't want to worry her
daughter.
Rei glanced at Minako suspiciously, she was up to something and Rei
hated secrets. "All right Mina, but I'm coming with you."
