Part One- Dear Diary


People call me a ditz. But I'm not. Sure, I may act like I'm ditzy and blond, but ya see, I
have to. Once, a very long time ago, I was leader of the Sailor Senshi, but when the beautiful 
Silver Millennium was destroyed and Her Majesty, Queen Serenity, was killed, that ended. Then,
many years later, I was reborn, we all were. 
I was so scared! This weird white cat was talking to me and this big ugly monster was trying 
to kill me, and I raised my wand in the air, and the words escaped my lips and.... and I 
remembered. 
I REMEMBERED!!! 
I remembered it all!! My battle, my people, my friends, my sisters-in-arms, my princess, 
everything! The princess, heir to the Crystal, future Queen, protected at all costs. And 
Artemis,my friend, my protector, my guardian, my teacher, the Legendary Lord Artemis, who gave 
up his life, his freedom, his very humanity for the House of Venus and the Moon. I destroyed the
monster with my Crescent Beam and powered down, but I still remembered. 
I looked down at Artemis and felt like crying, "I missed you SO much!" I sobbed collapsing to my
knees, giving the furball a huge hug, and I did end up crying. 
When he finally got me to turn loose we talked and I realized something, I was Sailor Venus, and
my presence would call attention. If I had manifested, then the others would too and the 
Princess... 
NO! I realized, I would call attention to the princess and they would find her and kill her! I 
couldn't let that happen! 
I discussed it with Artemis, and understood, he suggested I add an extra glamour spell to my 
uniform to hide. We did and when the enemy went to England I followed. 
But then one day I felt it.
The princess needed me. 
I had ignored the summons of the Crystal, Serenity and the court long enough. I had nothing to 
hold me back, England thought me dead and Alan had never really loved me, so, I went left. I 
went back, and lord what I found! Serenity was leader now, Sailor Moon, USAFI and... Kunzite, 
Oh Gods! Kunzite! The love of my life working for that awful creature, my memories had been 
telling the truth! 
I lost him. 
I'm happy for Usagi, she's the princess, and my dearest, best friend. I would give my life for 
her, as I would for any of the others, in a heartbeat, without a second thought But I have to 
hide, I remember, I remember everything and they don't. My mask is perfect, maybe a little too 
perfect. But it works, there's no way a ditz like that could remember the Silver Millennium like
it was yesterday! 
I have to guard my words well, one slip up and I would trigger their memories too, and I don't 
think they could all handle that. 
Fragile, Sensitive Ami, remembering Zoisite's betrayal would kill her, they meant so much to 
each other! 
What did that bitch Beryl do to our boys? 
Or Lita, she and Nephrite were comrades-in-arms before they were lovers, and could almost read 
each other's minds in battle. 
And Rei, that stubborn firebrand, sometimes, still if I concentrated hard enough I can remember 
her voice singing out to the whole world her love for Jadeite after they almost lost each other 
to a disaster in the Temple. 
When I realized I lost Kunzite, that he had betrayed me for real, I thought I would die all over
again but I couldn't, I had to protect my friends, stay strong, not forget, and besides, he 
hated to see me cry. 
So to protect my friends, to honor a memory and yes sometimes just because I really need a way 
out I'll hide, I'll wear my mask of stupid giggles, silly games, forgetfulness and bad grades 
until it isn't a mask anymore. And people say I'm a bad actress! 
God if only they knew! 

Somewhere in the dark a book closed and a figure sighed. The moonlight caught in long white hair
and looked longingly at a near by bed. He slowly approached her and brushed a few stray hairs 
from her face. Slowly, as if he was waging an inside battle with himself, he inched closer to 
the sleeping girl. 
After a few seconds he brushed his lips across her. Lightly, teasingly, but if was enough to 
make Aino Minako stir in her sleep, restless. The figure panicked and set the book down, jumping
to a window, he took one longing look at girl the laying in the bed and then disappeared 
whispering, "You won't have to hide for ever, I'll come back, I promise." 
In bed Minako sat up, almost immediately alert "What?" she mumbled looking around. She glanced 
over at her vanity, "Who moved my diary?," she glanced at the window, "And opened my window?" 
she kicked the white furball at the end of the bed. 
"Huh, what is it Mina?" Artemis mumbled sleepily sitting up. 
"Did you open my window again cat? I mean how am I supposed to get my beauty sleep if there's a
draft?" 
"No I didn't, go back to bed!" Artemis laid back down. 
Huffing Mina got up and padded over to the window, she shut it and walked over to her vanity, 
picking her diary up. After putting it away in a dresser her drawer she went back to sleep, 
saving little mysteries until tomorrow. 


Please, please, please, please tell me what you think! I'll love you forever if you do!
