Hi. This my first attempt at a fanfic, so don't flame me too quickly. This is based on the NA dub.(Sorry, it's all I've seen) I did use Sailor Pluto in the begining, and she does play a part later on. I used Susan as her name. It fits. Anything else somone wants me correct, or any comments send them to andrewtr@baldcom.net Brian Andrews SAILOR MOON: GHOSTS FROM THE PAST (part 1) Mina and Susan walked slowly through the graveyard. Mina couldn't stand the suspense anymore. " Susan, where are we going? You haven't said a word since we got here." Susan stopped in front of a small gravestone. She turned to face Mina. "Mina, remember how there was a period of time, after Serena beat Queen Beryl, that none of you were scouts?" "Yeah. What about it?" "Well, you returned to the role of Sailor Venus for awhile. You don't remember it, because I erased your memories." "What's that have to do with this gravestone?" "This is where my sister is buried. Her name was Terra. She was also Sailor Charon." "Sailor Charon?" Mina closed her eyes and thought about it for a moment. "That sounds really familiar........" "Mina, take this. It'll bring back your memories in your dreams." Mina opened her eyes and looked at Susan's offering. It was a pendant, bearing a symbol similar to Venus but with an arc under the heart. A small red gemstone was tucked inside the heart. "It was Terra's, before she.......passed on." Mina looked up. Susan's eyes were wet with tears. Mina took the pendant and placed it around her neck. "Will you look at the time! We'd better get you home," Susan said, as wiped away her tears. Mina nodded. Susan started back toward the car, and glanced at Mina. She just smiled and gave her a sympathetic look. * * * It was around 10:30 when Mina got back home. She waved bye to Susan, as she drove off. Artemis sat by the door, waiting for Mina to let him in. "So, how were things with Pluto?," Artemis asked. He knew Mina well enough to know something was bothering her. "Artemis, before Luna gave me back my memories, did Sailor Venus make a reappearance?" Artemis blushed. "Well, to tell you the truth, um, I don't know. Me and Luna hung around Serena most of the time, so the rest of you could've been saving the world by yourselves all over again. We just didn't think about it." Mina opened the door and walked inside, the cat following behind her. She walked upstairs and into her bedroom. Mina started to change into her nightgown , when Artemis started questioning her. "What's going on, Mina? You haven't said anything since you came home." "Oh, nothing." "Are you sure?" "The thing I'm sure of right now, is that I need sleep," With Mina climbed under the covers and promptly fell asleep. * * * Mina was Sailor Venus, again. Some kind of bat-monster was attacking her. She started to use her crescent beam, but it slammed into her before she could finish. With no room to maneuver, she was pinned under its bulk. As Venus prepared for the end, she heard a voice above her. "CHARON DARK SPEHERE!.......STRIKE!" The next thing Venus heard was the monster screaming in pain. It leapt off her, and flew at the source of its pain. Venus got up and followed the monster's path. On top of a nearby warehouse, was another Sailor Scout, wrapped in an ankle-length cloak. The other Scout jumped down as the monster flew by. She landed next to Venus. "Need a hand?" * * * Artemis landed on floor hard. He looked around groggily, noticing Mina approaching her window. "Mina?" When she turned, Artemis realized something was wrong. Mina's skin was pale, and he could've sworn that her eye's were dark green. But the most frightening change was her mouth. It was pulled back in a cruel smile. She pointed her palm at him, and a black sphere of energy shot out. It struck the floor in front of him, ballooning out, and sending him into the wall. As Artemis slipped into unconsciuness, a thought stuck. Since when did Mina have canines big enough to be mistaken for fangs? * * * continued in part 2
