Mini Venus – Lady Jazmyn Winner
"Quatre my love, look Jazmyn is walking!" Minako exclaimed as Jazmyn stood up with the support of her mother's knee and waddled towards her father who was playing on the piano.
Quatre instantly stopped playing the piano and turned to his youngest daughter; he smiled and held out his arms for her. Jazmyn smiled her one-toothed grin and hobbled over into his arms. Her father picked her up and laughed as he tossed her up and spun her around.
"Oh this is wonderful! What a good girl you are Jazzy!" Quatre said as he set her back on the ground again, as he did this their eldest daughter came into the room.
"What is all the excitement father?" She asked as her parents laughed and cooed at her baby sister.
"Oh! Abigail your sister started to walk!" Minako exclaimed.
Abby's eyes lit up and she ran and sat next to her mother and started to coo at her sister like her parents. Quatre sat on the stool in front of the piano and watched his girls laugh and play, he could not think of a better way to spend an afternoon. But what he didn't know was that this moment of happiness would not last.
Suddenly three guards came in startling the happy family, Minako got up and glared at the guards and was about to yell at them when Quatre put his hand on her shoulder and glanced at her.
"What is the meaning of this intrusion; you have startled my daughters and upset the Lady of the house."
One of the guards stepped up and saluted Quatre, "My Lord please forgive us, but there is an invasion coming from somewhere on the northern side of the palace!"
Minako gasped and Abby scowled, Jazmyn just stared at everyone and went back to playing with her toys.
"Who would attack the palace? We have never done anything to anyone and we have always remained loyal to the best interest of the people!" Minako said as she clung to her husband.
"My Lady, I believe it is the rebellion from those colonies surrounding our sister planet. They're planning to invade all of the neighboring planets they don't want to be ruled by nobles, they want to be independent!" One of the other guards explained.
Quatre looked far beyond shocked for words, while his wife was on the verge of tears.
"Well we must defend the palace and stop them here! If we do nothing they will go to the other planets and hurt our friends!" Abby said pulling out her crystal.
"You're right Abigail but we cannot all fight them off. Someone must be here for Jazmyn!" Quatre said, "Minako I want you to stay here and contact Heero and Wufei, they are the closest. Then I want you to stay in here and keep Jazmyn safe, if I see Artimis I will send him to you."
"Quatre no! Please we can go to the shelter and wait for reinforcements!" Minako cried as she hugged her husband.
"Minako my love, we must do this. I need you to stay here. Please do this for me my love." Quatre said softly kissing Minako on the forehead.
Minako nodded her head but continued to cry as her daughter and husband left.
It was a battle that lasted well into the next morning, and with the Dark came victory for the guardians of the galaxy, but not without a few sacrifices.
The next week nobles from all over the galaxy stood in front of two caskets, women were crying, the men were forlorn and the children just stared not understanding. Minako gave the eulogy about Quatre Winner and Abigail Winner… her husband and daughter.
Later that night, Queen Serenity declared mournfully that Jazmyn would be apart of the next generation of guardians as Sailor Mini Venus. At the age of 8 Jazmyn would become a defender of her very own planet and galaxy.
Minako lived the rest of her days a widow, but she would also cherish the times that she had with her beloved Quatre.
