New Love
Chapter 1: Face to Face
By: Amethyst
Neo Queen Serenity stared out her window, thinking about he past few days. She and Darien had been arguing constantly about the rumors of him having an affair. What she didn't tell anyone, not even him, is that she caught him in bed with the woman also. The other senshi had their own kingdoms, and they were on them, working on issues there. Making up her mind, she took out the Imperium Silver Crystal.
"Silver Crystal,
grant my wish. Take me to someone who will never betray me, who will
love me unconditionally, and who I can believe in. Take me to a man
who will feel for me as I feel for him," she said. The crystal glowed,
and as it was about to transport her, Reenie came in and ran two her mother.
The crystal's light vanished, leaving the room empty.

The two landed outside of a strange building saying Capsule Corporation. Unconsiously, Serenity looked down at her clothing. That needed to go. Taking out the crystal once again, she changed herself and her daughter into something more comfortable. She wore a gray flared skirt with a white 3/4 blouse and a gray vest while Reenie had on a pink jumper with a white shirt.
"Mommy, why did you do that?" asked Reenie.
"Sweetheart, I couldn't stay there. You father has been cheating on me, and I feel unwanted. I wanted to leave, so I did, " Serenity replied.
"But you were going to leave me!" said Reenie, holding onto her mother, tears streaming down her face.
Serenity kneeled down until she was face to face with her daughter. "I would have found a way back to you dear. Remember that. No matter where I am, you'll always find me," she said, rocking Reenie gently. Soon she got up and took Reenie's hand, and they walked towards the building.
"Come on, let's
find out where we are," she said.
*C.C.*
Bulma sighed as she heard sounds in the rooms around her. Krillen and 18 were in one room, and she was very suspicious of what they were doing, although she had a clue what it was. Vegeta was in the next, trying to kill Mirai Trunks. Trunks and Goten were in another room playing. Pan, Marron, and Bra were in another room, doing god knows what.
Suddenly the doorbell rang. She went to get it, and saw two strangers. "Yes, how may I help you?" she asked politely.
Serenity smiled at Bulma. "Hello, my daughter and I are new to the area, and we were wondering if you knew of a place to stay?" she asked.
Bulma looked Serenity over. She saw a woman to converse with, now that ChiChi had cheated on Goku and moved away to another country. "You could stay here. I'd love the company," said Bulma cheerfully.
Serenity smiled. "Thank you! Oh, how impolite of me not to introduce myself. I'm Serena Tsukino, and this is my daughter Rena Tsukino. I call her Reenie," she said, laughing internally at her choices of names.
Reenie looked at her mother giggling. "It's a pleasure to meet you," she said.
Bulma ushered the two in and showed them their rooms. Serena had a suite to herself, and Reenie had a connecting room. After settling herself in, Serena decided to look around. She heard sounds in the other room, and went to look in. She saw a man with spiky hair just sitting in a chair, was was facing a fireplace. She saw the tears rolling down his face, and she approached him, closing the door behind her.
"What's wrong?" she asked softly, stepping near the man. She got the sense that he lost something recently. The man got up, and turned to face her, and she gasped.
She could tell he had a youthful face, but that it was now marred with stress and worry lines.
"Who are you?" the man asked.
"My name is Serena Tsukino, what's yours?" she asked. He looked into her eyes, and she saw the same pain she had reflecting in his eyes.
"I'm Son Goku."
