Please this is my first story. Read and Review I NEED FEEDBACK :P

Before Mina arrives. Sailor Moon only has her Tiara and they don't know who Tuxedo Mask is.

Serena was running as fast as she could. Even transformed into sailor moon her injuries protested and she stumbled frequently as she headed towards her second battle for the night. She could feel her fellow scouts in trouble but her body wouldn't move faster then it was already going and she knew that by the time she arrived her friends would already be hurt.

She could see them in the distance. Ray was thrown to the ground her red skirt burnt and as she landed she let out a scream of pain. Summoning the remainder of her strength, she took off her tiara and threw it at the monster intent on trying to hit Ami with its many sharp tentacles. Hitting it straight on the monster burst into blinding flames and disappeared. Serena finally managed to reach her friends but instead of praise for defeating the monster that would have otherwise killed them she was greeted with glares.

"where were you?" yelled Ray, "would it have killed you for once to get here BEFORE we get hurt"

"Ray you don't understand" she tried not to let her anger flare up, but she was in so much pain, "Ray, I got delayed there..." but before she could tell her about her solo battle with the other monster Ray was down her throat.

"Delayed. YOU GOT DELAYED. What was more important than helping us fight? Not that you help much anyway. You wait for us to wear it down then hit it with that stupid tiara of yours. I bet anything could take them out at the level there at after fighting us." Ray was yelling at her so furiously that neither realised that Ami was elsewhere and Lita was nowhere to be seen.

"Ray, its not like that. I didn't get held up on purpose but something happened and..." again she was unable to finish as Ray launched into another attack of Sailor Moon

"You never mean to be held up and its never your fault but face it Serena your just not cut out for this. You a clutz and a cry baby and you always let us down"

"Ray please just listen.." this time she was interrupted by Ami

"If either of you care Lita is in a serious condition, really Serena what were you doing that was more important than fighting with your friends. Im sorry but i agree with Ray you're just not cut out for this. I think we should try to find someone else to be Sailor Moon as obviously it was a mistake that you were picked."

Serena was shocked silent. How could Ami say that to her? Wasn't it enough that she risked her life for her scouts every day. She had been attacked on her way and was injured but she still ran all the way over here to help out. "Ami please, it's not my fault..."

"It never is Serena but this is serious and i just think its best for all involved if you quit now and left us to do the job. Come on Ray let's get Lita to the hospital i think she might have head trauma."

"yes Serena, we don't ever want to hear from you again you've done enough" said Ray

With that, both Ray and Ami left carrying Lita. Neither noticing that Serena herself was bruised and dirty or that hidden in the tree's Tuxedo Mask watched on.
