This is Usagi retelling the first season from her point of 
view. A few days have elapsed between the time Sailor Venus

Entry #1

	My mother gave me this journal the other day, and told me I 
should write down everything important that happens to me. Kinda 
ironic that she has no idea what my life is really like. But it's a 
good idea, so here goes.
	My name's Tsukino Usagi. I'm fourteen years old, a normally 
happy-go-lucky teenager who has a normal family--overprotective 
father, mother, annoying little pest for a brother--and a relatively 
peaceful life. Or so I thought. Maybe my grades aren't the best, but I 
really do like school, contrary to popular belief. All I really wanted was 
fun times with my friends, and just to have fun while growing up. 
Unfortunately things aren't as easy as that anymore.
	My life has changed dramatically since then, and not 
necessarily for good or bad. It all began the day I failed that math test I 
had studied so hard for. I regretted telling Umino and Naru-chan (she's 
my best friend) about it, since I knew with their big mouths word 
would get around quickly and somehow, some way, my mother would 
find out about it. She always did, and I had to suffer her wrath when I 
got home, usually missing dinner or something like that.
	That morning I had crossed paths with a peculiar-looking 
black cat. I'm not one to be superstitious or anything, but this cat left 
me feeling uneasy for the rest of the day. Maybe that's why I couldn't 
concentrate on my test. I had never seen a cat as strange as this one, 
especially one with such an odd marking on its forehead.
	Who knew how one animal could turn my life upside down? 
First of all, this cat talked, which was the last thing I ever expected! 
Then Luna (which was the cat's name, as I later found out) told me 
something that I thought to be completely out of this world! I was a 
superheroine named Sailormoon? Me, of all people! Most people know 
me to be a major klutz (including myself some days) so this fact was 
really hard to swallow.
	But nevertheless, as Luna informed me, I was supposed to 
fight the evil Dark Kingdom that was descending upon the earth, 
whether I liked it or not. I was one of five "senshi" that would come 
together in due time to save the earth, find something called the 
ginzuishou, and to protect the long lost princess of the Moon.
	At first, I thought, 'Wow! I get to be like Sailor V and fight off 
all the bad guys!' I had another think coming. Who knew that the bad 
guys would be evil (not to mention really ugly) youma from the Dark 
Kingdom? I knew I wouldn't be able to fight them on my own, they 
were much too powerful for me. Thank goodness for the sudden 
appearance of a mysterious and handsome masked man (we started 
calling him Tuxedo Kamen) who threw roses in the path of the youma, 
then enabling me to destroy it.
	That was only the beginning of my life being turned upside 
down. Since then, I have met the other inner senshi (as we have come 
to call ourselves): Sailormercury--Mizuno Ami, the "brain" of Juuban 
Junior High; Sailormars--who turned out to be Hino Rei, the miko from 
Hikawa Jinja (suits her to be the senshi of fire!); Sailorjupiter--Kino 
Makoto (or Mako-chan); and finally Sailorvenus--Aino Minako, who 
just joined us. We make up a pretty good team, and though there are 
days when we fight among ourselves (especially me and Rei) I can 
honestly say these are the best friends that I have ever had.

Entry #2

	Each of my new friends are so alike, and yet, we're all very 
different. Take Ami-chan for instance. I don't know how to describe 
her, except she's incredibly intelligent. She's always getting the highest 
scores in school (she and Urawa-kun often tie for the top), and a lot of 
people tend to snub her for it. I admit, I used to do the same, but that 
was before I really got to know her. I'm glad we became friends, cause 
I know I'll learn plenty from her. 
	Then there's Rei-chan. Ooh, what a temper that girl has! I 
don't know how Yuuichirou puts up with her every day! She lives with 
her ojii-san at Hikawa Jinja, and helps takes care of the grounds while 
training to be a miko. The first time I met her, I feared being near her 
because she had such a strong aura about her (though I didn't know it at 
the time), and also because it was when all those people were 
disappearing from the bus stop nearby. Now I know the only thing I 
have to fear about her is when she blows her top if I'm late to a senshi 
meeting.
	On to Mako-chan. She's the tallest of all of us. On the outside, 
she looks rough and mean, and if you cross her, she can be. But really, 
deep down, she's a softy. We can always count on her to be there to 
kick youma butt. And did I mention, she's also the most incredible cook 
in the world? Well, she is. If you want real food, just ask Mako-chan, 
and she'll whip some gourmet treat up in no time at all. I don't know 
much about her family life, except that she lives alone, and she's 
mentioned something once about her parents dying in a plane crash. 
But I know Mako-chan's strong.
	Finally, there's Minako-chan. I don't know too much about her 
since she just joined us a few days ago, but she seems really nice. I 
think she goes to Shibakouen Junior High in her neighborhood, so I 
don't see her as often as I do Ami-chan and Mako-chan. She's originally 
from England, and get this--she's the *real* Sailor V! Kawaii! I never 
thought I would ever meet the famous Sailor V in person. Artemis is 
her guardian cat, like Luna is mine. I wonder if he likes Luna from the 
way he's been acting when he's around her. I'll have to ask Mina-chan 
about that later.	To think that the forces of destiny put us together for one 
mission--the five of us, saving the earth from all evil? Five girls going 
up against the likes of Beryl, those menacing generals (who knows how 
many are left now?), and all the rest of her henchmen? Not to mention 
Metallia! What have we gotten ourselves into?

Entry #3

	Before I write out any more of the adventures the senshi and I 
have experienced, I have to say something about the two men in my 
life. One I wish I knew better, and the other I sometimes wish I had 
nothing to do with.	The first man is a mysterious figure we only know as Tuxedo 
Kamen. I mentioned that he first appeared right around the same time 
that I became Sailormoon, and even after all this time, we still don't 
know much about him. He always appears when we get into trouble 
with the youma, and he throws roses to stun them long enough for us to 
destroy them. Luna says we shouldn't trust him because he's after the 
same nijizuishou we are, and we don't know which side he's on. But 
it's not just the saving thing that has me fascinated. There's just 
something about him that is so enticing. Once right after we fought the 
youma that Yumeno Yumeni had been turned into, we both reached for 
the green nijizuishou and a star-shaped locket fell out of his pocket. As 
I touched it, so did he and a strange thing happened. There was a small 
flash of light, and he whispered "Princess." He must know something 
about the princess that Luna is so adamant for the senshi to find. Who 
else would he be talking about? If I get a chance next time we fight a 
youma, I'm going to ask him about it.
	I should say a little something about the other man, the one 
who I don't like very much. His name is Chiba Mamoru or baka as I 
like to call him. He deserves that name because he always calls me 
Odango Atama. It wouldn't be so bad if Rei-chan hadn't caught on to it 
too. I am not a Dumpling Head! Ooh, sometimes I wish I had never met 
him! Then again, there have been a few times where he was actually 
civil to me, but those times are few and far between. Motoki-onii-san 
knows him the best; I just wish he would take off that stone mask of 
his, and let someone really get to know him. I'm not saying it has to be 
me, but if it was, I wouldn't mind.

Entry #4

	I'm writing this in the middle of detention, because there's 
nothing to do. That's right; I'm in detention again. Haruna-sensei has 
not been in a good mood lately, and she likes to take it out on me. So 
here I sit in the empty classroom, biding my time with my precious 
journal until she says I can go home. 
	I hadn't thought about it before, but if this journal ever gets 
into the wrong hands, I-not to mention the senshi-will be in danger. 
So I must keep an eye on this book wherever I go. Not even my family 
can see this, lest their lives be in danger as well. Ever since Luna gave 
me the Moon Stick and proclaimed me to be the leader, I've tried to be 
more careful, even if it doesn't show. Rei-chan likes to point out all of 
my faults, and even though it makes me mad, I bite my tongue and 
keep on working. If we're to find this Moon Princess, I want to be able 
to prove myself to her. 
	Funny, I once asked Minako-chan right after she joined us if 
she was the princess we were looking for, but now I know that she 
isn't. She's an awesome soldier, but she doesn't really appear to be 
princess material. What princess do you know always mixes up her 
metaphors? She'd make a great leader for the senshi if Luna hadn't 
already chosen me.	Finally! Haruna-sensei says I can go home now, I've been 
here long enough. I wonder if I'll run into Mamoru-san today. This 
wouldn't be the first time I've run into him after school and we 
exchanged our daily amount of insults, but you know, I've grown to 
like it. My day just wouldn't be complete without it.
	Haruna-sensei is starting to stare at me, wondering why I'm 
still sitting here after she said I was free to leave. Just one more thing 
before I pack up and go home. I hope we find the princess soon, then 
maybe the five of us will finally know what our purpose as senshi really is.





And you know the rest... ^_~
