Hey! I've decided to do the Silver Millennium and then the present, where
the Generals come back, if you guys want me to. And I'm doing one chapter
for each Senshi and then one about Mars and the destruction of the Silver
Millennium. And for those of you wondering, yes that chapter will be long!
But anyway, the standard disclaimers apply. BSSM belongs to Naoko Takeuchi
and not me. I'd be a 15 year old chica with my own place and Nelly and
Murphy Lee of the St. Lunatics waiting on me hand and foot if it did. I
know some other peeps wouldn't mind that either. ;-) If this story starts
sounding like other people's stories, sorry! I didn't mean to!
Chapter 5-Venus
Minako woke up the next morning feeling refreshed and pleased. She remembered her appointment with Kunzite and resolved that she would at least get a smile out of him before they separated. She was just about to take a bubble bath to relax when Serenity knocked on her door.
"Mina, didn't Ami have a chess game set up with Prince Zoicite at two?" Mina grabbed a full skirted long sleeved orange dress.
Mina nodded. "We can go watch later. I've got a meeting with Prince Kunzite at three, so I won't be there long." She took a bath and dressed. After watching an hour of Ami and Prince Zoicite be unbearably polite to each other, she left to go find Kunzite. She found him in one of the battle rooms, looking over a map of the moon.
"Prince Kunzite. I apologize for my slight tardiness. I had Senshi matters to attend to."
Kunzite nodded. "I expected that much Princess. Please, let us begin." He pulled out a chair for her. She gracefully sat into it and motioned at a wall. A map slid out of it and came to rest on the table. She motioned again, and several tiny figures came to rest on the map.
"There are four main guards here inside the palace. Myself, Mercury, Jupiter and Mars. We all have a link with Princess Serenity that lets us know the instant she's in trouble. This link also allows us to converse with each other and the outer Senshi. Very few guards have ever been needed inside the palace because of our ability to teleport to the princess's side instantly. The other guards check the perimeters of the palace for suspicious looking characters and the like." She said, putting figures in certain places. Kunzite nodded.
"I've often heard it said, Princess, that each of the Senshi has control over a particular element. Is that true?"
Mina nodded. "Allow me to explain." She motioned and the figures became larger and more distinctly colored. "It is true that each Senshi possesses some control over a particular element." She pointed to each figure in turn. "Mercury-ice, Mars-fire, Jupiter- thunder and lightning, Saturn-death and destruction, Uranus-the wind and skies, Neptune-water, and Pluto-time."
"What about you Princess Minako? It seems like all the elements are taken."
Mina smiled. "What I control is not exactly an element, but very fitting to me since I am the Senshi of Venus. My element is love."
"What kind of control do you have over it?" Kunzite inquired. He was distinctly curious.
"I can see other people's soul mates. For instance, did you know that Prince Jadeite and Princess Reiana are soul mates?"
Kunzite raised an eyebrow. "Really? Can you see your own?"
"That's the price of being Senshi Venus. I have been notoriously unlucky in love. I can't see my soul mate, if I have one, any more than Ami can make it rain rattlesnakes." Mina laughed, albeit a little bitterly. "It's rumored that I have no soul mate. I suppose it makes sense, given the fact that every man who has ever set his attentions to me finds their soul mate instantly." She brightened. "But enough of that kind of talk. Please, explain how you run things on Earth." She put the map away and put out a map of the Earth. Kunzite began explaining things to her but stopped when he noticed her staring at him.
"Princess? Is something wrong?" Mina snapped out of her trance and smiled nervously.
"No Prince Kunzite, everything's fine. Princess Reiana was asking me a question." She was lying to cover for her staring, but thankfully, Kunzite didn't realize it. He continued with his explanation. When they were through, he asked to escort her back to her room. She accepted and they slowly made their way to her quarters.
"Prince Kunzite, may I ask a question?" He nodded and she continued. "I have yet to see you smile. Are you serious all the time?"
"I am more serious than most, but in truth Princess, I just never find anything amusing."
"Oh. That makes sense. It's the opposite of the reason I look so cheerful all the time. I know you've noticed it. Does it annoy you?" She inquired, her voice going softer with each word.
"No it doesn't annoy me at all. I find it attractive on you. It actually makes me want to laugh." Kunzite smiled, making Mina blush lightly. They had reached her quarters.
"You have a beautiful smile. Thank you for escorting me Prince Kunzite. I trust you will be able to find your way back to your own quarters?"
"I will. It was a pleasure talking with you." He bowed and turned to leave, but then stopped. Mina was still outside of her room and thinking so she was totally unprepared for what happened next. Kunzite leaned down and brushed her lips with a kiss. Then he left, leaving Mina dumbfounded. She ran in her room and turned on the video screen with a direct link to her mother, Queen Aphrodite. Her mother appeared on the screen with a big smile on her face. She looked just like her daughter; except her eyes were much darker blue.
"Minako! How are you honey?"
"I'm fine mother, but I wanted to ask you a question. How do you know when you've fallen in love?"
Aphrodite squealed in an appalling manner for a queen. "Have you fallen in love, Minako? Who is the lucky guy?"
"His name's Kunzite and I don't know if I love him yet. That's why I called you!" A knock on the door interrupted further conversation. "Hold on Mom, someone's at my door." She opened it. "Kunzite! Did you get lost?"
He shook his head. "I'm in love with you."
Mina gaped at him for a minute then pulled him into her room. She dragged him over to the video screen.
"Mother, may I present Prince Kunzite of the North? Prince Kunzite, this is my mother Queen Aphrodite of Venus and the elder Senshi Venus." Kunzite bowed and Mina's mother assumed a regal manner.
"Do you love my daughter, young prince?"
Kunzite nodded. "Yes Your Majesty. She's the most beautiful and warm-hearted person I've ever met and although it's a little soon for this, I would gladly lay down my life for her."
"Daughter, do you love him?" Aphrodite turned to Minako.
"I, I, I think I do love him. Very much." Queen Aphrodite nodded.
"Minako, you are aware of the fact that I have much of the same powers as you?" Mina nodded. "I can tell soul mates and Kunzite and you belong together. You have my blessing. My sister, Selenity, will be pleased. Aphrodite out." The screen went blank.
"I love you Minako." Kunzite bent his head down to her.
"Call me Mina." She whispered before he kissed her. "I love you too." She said when they parted. "But you've got to go or else we'll both be in trouble. I'll meet you in my gardens tomorrow. Bye."
Kunzite left and Minako finally got to take her bubble bath. Of course she hardly noticed what she was doing since her mind was preoccupied with thoughts of a certain silver-haired man.
I'm done with this one! YAY! Review please but no flames! Have a nice day! (Or night.) Peace out!!
