Disclamer. Sailor Moon does not by any chance belong to me. Although this story and the religious beliefs reflected hers do. This is my first attempt at fanfiction, so please go easy on me.
ONE
The Cassidy Twins Reunited.
Eyes shaded behind dark sunglasses, Mina gazed around the crowded airport in hopes of catching sight of her twin's familiar golden curls. Serena's plane from India had landed thirty minutes earlier, but she was nowhere in sight.
Mina glanced down at the simple gold Rolex watch clasped around her slim wrist, and swore at the time. If Serena did not appear in the next ten minutes, they would be late for their full body massage. Once again, she scanned the hall, this time catching sight of her sister. She stood near the bank of escalators. In one hand was a pale pink duffel bag and in the other the handle to a roller-suitcase. She saw Mina, a huge smile spreading across her face. Then Serena waved excitedly, weaving through the crowd towards her.
Mina stood, the magazine she had been reading forgotten as she also headed towards her sister. They met in the middle of the room. The duffel bag and suitcase dropping from Serena's arms as she flung them around her twin sister's neck. They embraced tightly, shrieking aloud, earning glances from the people around them.
In their excitement at seeing, each other after six long lonely months of separation, Mina's sunglasses and scarf came off and a passing teenage boy caught sight of her now revealed wheat blonde hair and lazuline blue eyes.
His brown eyes widened and he gestured for his sister to come, pointing at Mina and Serena. "Isn't that Serena and Mina Cassidy. "
Erica peered at the two women who were now talking gushingly. "Yeah... OH MY GOD! IT'S THE CASSIDY TWINS!" She suddenly shrieked, pointing at Serena aand Mina who stood arms around each other, uable to escape from the beginning signs of an intense autograph session that they would have to endure if they didn't get away..
Heads turned, the bored crowd now bustling with excitement. "I thought Serena died of Anorexia, ten years ago." One woman asked her daughter.
The girl rolled her eyes, but she eyed her mother, who she had taught un-cool before, with a new light of respect and common bond. "No. Actually, Serena went to Medical school, and then went on to become a missionary somewhere in India."
"I heard she is a missionary in Calcutta. One of the poorest and most congested cities in the world." A passer-by put in.
In a few minutes, screaming fans surrounded Serena and Mina. Fans thrust Pens and every kind of thing into the face, each person in the crowd clamouring for an autograph. Years of Practice enabled them in pasting a wide smile onto their faces.
They had grown up in public spotlight, their mother a supermodel and actress, their father, an award-winning director. At the age of four, they had débuted their hit TV show, Family matters, which had run for ten seasons. Then at fifteen, they had debuted their first single, Misconceptions. Along the way, they had starred in numerous movies, some together, others apart. Each movie they starred in became a box office hit.
When they had been younger, with their same shade of platinum-blonde hair and cornflower blue eyes, people had often mistaken them for identical twins. However, as they grew older, Serena's hair darkened to a burnished gold, while Mina's, lightened to a wheat-blonde. They both grew into tall voluptuous women. They remained alike in many ways. Both had the same bubbly personality, with a particular flare for theatrics and practical jokes. Though, Serena, the older and more mature. While they attended different universities, Mina going to Juliard School of Arts and Serena, to Oxford Medical School, they remained as tight as before even when separated by the large expanse of the Atlantic Ocean.
Unlike most child and teen stars, the Cassidy twins had talent that even the densest person would realize that after watching only one of their movies. Their music career was not any different. Many major public events featured one, or both of the twins singing the national anthem. They did not overly publicize their fame by creating fashions lines. Many adult and teen sensations, past and present, could not compare with the Cassidy twins.
The signed autographs for the next thirty minutes before Serena stopped, eyes making contact with everyone in the crowd. Her smile was bright and cheery, yet her eyes and tone of voice stood unyielding to any complaint from the crowd.. "We got to go now, guys. I just came back from a trip. Mina and I have a lot to catch up on . And I have to sleep off jet-lag." she finished with a laugh that instantlu caught on through the crowd.
With that, Mina and Serena grabbed Serena's fallen luggage and together weaved through the crowd to the parking lot, where Mina parked her Porsche. After loading the luggage into the bout, they got into the baby-blue car and drove off.
Many avid fans in the crowd continued to chase the Mina and Cassidy. Going as far as to get into their cars and follow them. The rest, now deprived of their entertainment, went on with what they had been doing before.
