NOTE: This is the next 'The Beginning Of Sailor V!' chapter. I'm sorry that it took so long to get posted, but I was having trouble posting stories. I'll try and make sure that the next chapter is posted A.S.A.P!

Anyway I hope all of you out there like it and please let me know what you think of it by reviewing!

P.S. I'm having a hard time finding what Sailor V's attacks are (considering that their different from the ones that she uses as Sailor Venus). If anyone has any information on some other attacks and what they do I'd be very appreciated if you could email me.

Thanks!

Mina's eyes fluttered open as the morning light sifted through her bedroom window, catching on her eyes. She groaned and forced herself to get up. She didn't need to see the time to know that she was already late for school.

"One day off won't hurt me" she said yawning. She lifted her quilt over her head and snuggled down deep into the blankets. It was so warm inside of her bed. She knew that the second she got out of bed she would freeze.

"Wake up Mina, it's a school day, you don't want to be late" came a strange and yet familiar voice.

Mina jumped out of bed with fright, ready to defend herself. And yet just as suspected the second that she got out of bed she started to freeze. Her teeth began to chatter as she crossed her arms, trying to keep herself warm. She quickly jumped back into the warmth of her bed. It was too cold this morning to move.

"Who's there?" she said as she tried to become comfortable again. Her body instantly became warm again.

"Gotta love electric blankets" she thought to herself as a grin pulled its way across her angelic face.

"Don't tell me that you've forgotten me already" Artemis sighed as he jumped up onto her bed and tried to burrow his way under the blankets so he could talk to her.

Memories of the day before started to flood into Mina's mind. How the 'power stick' had come into her hands. How she had mysteriously become Sailor V and how all of this had happened by the appearance of this one strange talking cat.

Artimis' eyes began to glow in the dark underneath the covers. Mina giggled at this and pulled her head out from under the covers. She breathed in a sigh of unknown relief.

"Artimis I really don't feel like going to school today" she said. "I just need a day to get my head around things. A day to sort out the fact that I am not 'Sailor V!'…who ever she is anyway"

The white haired cat sighed but understood perfectly word for word what she is saying. "I don't encourage skipping school" he began "But I do support the fact that you need to grasp this. I have a lot to teach you today and you have a lot to learn in return"

Mina laughed as she rubbed under his chin. "What could possibly be so hard to learn?" she asked.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

"And so what's my mission again?" Mina said. All of this new information Artemis was telling her was going through one ear and out the other. Everything seemed so far fetched and yet she knew it wasn't. If Sailor V existed then how could the rest of it also be a lie? But at the same time how could all of this information be hidden and disregarded by the entire human race?

"Your mission as Sailor V is to protect the world from the evils that try to take over it. But our main goal, our one mission that we must not fail is to find the sacred Moon Princess. With her help the earth will be brought to pure peace and perfection. It is her who will protect the earth and it is your job as a Sailor Scout to protect her"

Mina processed this before saying something else. There had been a certain something in Artemis' sentence that had left her thinking. 'Sailor scout, vampire hunter, student'. Her face showed an honest look of confusion.

"You said Sailor Scout, didn't you?"

Artemis nodded his small head. "Yes, I'm glad to see that you're starting to grasp what I'm saying"

"So that would mean that there's more than one; there's more than just me. I'm not the only one out there looking for this Moon Princess and trying to protect the world"

"Well...err" Artemis began.

'She's bright when she wants to be. I was hoping I wouldn't have to tell her about the others for a while yet but it looks as if she isn't going to leave me much of a choice. Oh how I wish I could see them all again and my beloved Luna. But enough of that, what we need to focus on now is finding the Moon Princess, with or without the help of the other Sailor Scouts' Artemis thought to himself.

"Mina, the only thing that matters at the moment is that we find the Moon Princess. Nothing else matters at the moment, ok?"

Mina nodded her head, accepting her fate. "For the future of the earth" she said with a grin on her face.

After a long day's history lesson (mostly Artemis repeating the same facts over and over again) Mina was out on the field and ready to learn more about her abilities and the 'what-nots'.

Artmis had been more than thrilled to have finally left the house for a little adventure.

It was close to midnight, as they stood atop a building, looking down on the night life of Tokyo city. Street lights shone and more than the average number of cars slipped away through the night on the city roads.

A cold breeze brushed past them, wisping Sailor V's hair off of her shoulder and across her face, the tips of it touching her cheek ever so slightly.

She looked towards Artemis who nodded his head down below to the alleyway. She nodded her head in returned recognition then carefully making her way down there.

…………………………………………………………………………………………..

"No, please let me go!" cried an old woman as she tried to fend some burglars off of her handbag.

Sailor V looked towards Artemis as if to say 'You've got to be kidding me, right?' But the cat stared back at her as if to say 'We all have to start somewhere'

"I am Sailor V! Champion of justice!" she called out into the dark damped alleyway. The burglars turned toward her, briefly letting go of the old lady as she made a run for it.

Artemis sighed a sigh of relief as he watched her get away safely. The burglars where no longer interested in a little old lady now, they where interested in Sailor V, and for other more personal reasons.

The men drooled at the sight of her. Their clothes where torn and their faces unexpectedly freshly shaven. Sailor V cringed at the sight of them. They disgusted her.

They made their way towards her. She had no idea what to do, so naturally she did the first thing that came to her mind.

"Sailor V kick!" she cried as she kicked the slightly slimmer man in the stomach, sending him backwards into an overflowing trash can. He let out an agonising sound as his back hit the strong metal of the bin. She could only begin to imagine how much that would hurt.

"Get up mate" the other man who was still standing said. "It's not everyday that we get a pretty young girly stuck in an alley way with the two of us". The man grinned as he said this. His teeth (the ones that where left anyway) where blackened and covered with a yellowish slime, most likely from lack of brushing. He revolted her.

"Come here my pretty one" the other man said as he began to stand himself up from the bin his sat again. "Come here, we won't hurt you, we promise ya"

Sailor V stood her ground, worried about what was going to happen to her.

'Why did I agree to this? I'm just a normal teenage girl. I can't fight evil and protect the world from evil invaders. I'm a volleyball player for crying out loud!'

The men came towards her. Sailor V couldn't move, her feet where frozen on the spot yet she didn't dare look towards Artemis for help, doing so would have only been a good opportunity for those men to attack her. To her luck though she didn't need to.

Artemis came running up to her, in her aid. "Sailor V!" he cried as he yet again flipped in the air as he had the day before.

On the ground now lay…a compact mirror!!!!

"Now's not the time to fix my make-up!" Sailor V cried towards the cat as the larger man lunged forward at her. "Sailor V kick!" She cried, making the man double over from the pain. His companion too came after her, trying to tackle her. Sailor V stepped out of the way just in time, letting him run straight into the wall behind her.

"Pick it up and say 'Crescent Boomerang!'"

Sailor V knew she had no other choice as she watched the two men start to get to their feet again. She quickly knelt down and picked up the compact. "Crescent Boomerang!" she cried as she released her compact as if it where a boomerang.

"Another job well done if I might say so myself" Artemis said, congratulating Mina on her successful mission.

Mina sighed and stretched her arms. "Next time I'm going to school instead" she said as a smile spread across her face and she started to laugh.
