Hey everyone, this is my second story, I hope you like it, all the major characters are in it. Plus a couple of my own, I'm changing things around a little, not too much, just a little so don't worry too much. Oh and I decided that I'm putting the setting in San Diego, that might work for it.
Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon and I don't really care to own it, blah blah blah. Okay now that that's done here's my story:
In The End
Chapter One: Shut up and Listen…
"Perfect, Serena's late again!" Raye shouted out. She leaned back against her temple wall and crossed her arms roughly.
"Calm down, she called me earlier today and told me she was going to be late." Mina sighed; she also leaned back against the wall. She closed her eyes. The weather had been unbelievably crappy for the last two weeks.
"What did she say when she called?" Lita asked, as she stretched her arms and yawned.
"She said her ride was 'not available' then I heard in the back round: 'what do you mean by 'not available?''" Mina giggled.
"She better hurry up." Raye said very angrily. As if on cue they heard a car down the street going VROOM VROOM. Nothing like that ever happens in Raye's area. Her area was quiet the only things around her were: her temple, a drug store and a video store. That basically covered it. They all jumped to their feet and walked towards the steps. They looked down and saw a black sports car, a boy was sitting behind the wheel, and a girl with her long blonde hair was sitting in the passenger seat. The music was so loud that they could feel the beat on the floor where they all stood. The music then stopped. Darien and the girls all took a good look at the sports car, considering it was a convertible they could see everything.
Serena sighed long and hard.
"You sound like you don't want to see them?" Josh her cousin asked her.
"Not in the mood." She mumbled, "but I really do want to see Mina. I have to tell her what happened last night." She laughed.
"You mean what happened in the past 24 hours, we didn't sleep last night remember?" Josh corrected her and laughed.
"Right, right, okay now, I have to go, I have to tell them I fell asleep or something." She giggled. Serena opened the door and jumped out. Slamming the door behind her she heard Josh.
"Hey, what did I tell you about slamming my car door?" he teased her.
"What did I tell you about my car and coffee?" Serena mocked him.
"Call me when you need me." He told her, and zoomed off. Serena began to climb the steps to Raye's temple. Quickly everyone went back to where they were, so that she didn't know they were watching her in the car. Serena took off her sunglasses and put them in her bag, next to her cell phone. She finally reached the top of the stairs.
"Hey everyone." She smiled at them.
"You're late." Raye rubbed in her face. That's it, no "Hello," no, "Hi Sweetie." Nothing, not even from Darien.
"I know that…" she said in mono tone, Serena's eyes just looking straight at her in a "what's your problem" way.
"Why were you so late?" Amy asked her quietly.
"Okay I have the funniest, reason ever." She laughed a little.
"It better be good, not one of your 'I slept in' deals'" Raye picked up the broom and began to sweep.
"No Sweetie, it's not." Serena gave her attitude back. Darien looked at her a bit funny. She never told Raye anything like that before. "Okay, so last night we didn't sleep, because-" she was cut of by Mina.
"Lemme guess, it was your last night there and you guys were like 'NO CAN'T SLEEP! Must stay awake all night!'" Mina joked.
"No! That was in Arizona." She laughed at her. "We were laughing really hard last night. So Josh had the crazy idea of us staying up all night." She laughed with Mina.
"Wait, who's Josh? And why was he at your house all night last night?" Darien asked her suspiciously.
"He's my cousin, and if you're thinking there's anything between us, that's just plain disgusting." She joked around.
"So tell us again Serena, why were you late?" Lita asked her.
"Oh, Josh was being a butt and didn't want to take me at first. So then we totally lost track of time. The end!" she grinned at them. Mina tried to hide her smile; the rest of them didn't smile or do anything.
"Ooookay…" Serena looked down at her shoes. Everything went quiet until Raye broke the silence.
"You need to learn some responsibility, you're suppose to be our leader!" Raye snapped at her.
"You need to learn some damn manners." Serena shot back at her.
"Serena…" Mina warned her.
"Babe, I'll be right with ya." She said as she turned back to Raye.
"I'll learn some manners when you grow up!" Raye screamed at her.
"Well here's your chance!" Serena screamed back at her. Serena walked away from her and put her hands on her hips. She rolled her eyes and spoke to her. "You seriously think that when you say all that shit to me, it helps me to be on time? Well guess what bitch, it doesn't." Raye looked at her amazed, so did everyone else. She wasn't crying, she wasn't hollering for Amy or Darien to make Raye stop. She was fighting back.
"Serena!" Luna came up the temple steps and heard what she had just said.
"Yes?" she asked Luna calmly. Luna looked at her face, she saw that Serena wasn't crying, or nagging, or whining. She was just standing there, yelling at Raye, she seemed as if she had kept all this bottled up inside; and she had.
"As I was saying before I got rudely interrupted. You have no respect for me, and you said that you would learn some manners once I grew up? Learn them or you'll regret it." Serena warned her. Raye was dumfounded. What was she suppose to say? Everyone else looked at her in shock. Darien got up and put his hands on her shoulders.
"We need to talk." Darien pulled her away from everyone else. Darien led Serena into the back. "What the hell is wrong with you?" he looked at her.
"Me?!" she shouted at him. "What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you? You're not even saying anything to me today?" Darien looked down. "So, what, you're not going to admit it?" Serena added on.
"Admit what?" Darien mumbled, not bothering to look up at her.
"Admit that you kissed Raye on the lips." Her rage was going calmer as she began to get in control.
"What? That's stupid Serena, you know I love you-"
"I SAW YOU TOGETHER!" she screamed at him.
"What?"
"Last night, I saw you by the lake, near the rent-a-boat, at night, you two kissed." She said flatly.
"Serena, that was a mistake, you know I love you and only you." He came towards her, he reached out to touch her; she smacked his hand out of the way.
"Is that why you sucked her neck? Or are you a vampire now?" she asked him. Still she didn't shed tears. No emotion. Not even saying she loved him. She was in charge of this whole thing.
"How did you know all this?" Darien was in shock. He looked at her as if she had let him down. Even thought it was the other way around.
"Oh I have my ways, I was walking down the lake with some people. I saw you there, so don't you deny it you son of a bitch." Serena looked at him she felt much higher than him.
"Where did you learn to act like this? Where do you go off swearing to Raye?" he shouted at her.
"Oh I knew how, that's not the problem." she told him harshly, she walked back to where everyone else was. They looked at her. Raye stood up.
"You acted like you were so much better than me." Raye snorted.
"Because I am…" Serena chuckled.
"You better shut up and listen to me-" Raye began.
"No Dear, you better shut up and listen to me." Serena snapped back at her.
"You thought that I couldn't defend myself, you thought that I would break down and cry for what I saw last night, I didn't cry actually, and I won't either. Because as you can see, I'm acting all grown up like you said. So you better learn some fucking manners." Serena mocked her. Everyone just stared at her. "That's it, I QUIT!" she shouted. Everyone around her jumped up.
"No, wait, you can't quit, it's your destiny, you can't just leave that behind you!" Amy yelled at her.
"That's right, and we're apart of it, you can't just leave all of us, and everything that's happened to you behind." Lita jumped in front of her.
"You can't be serious, can you?" Raye even decided to help out in this.
"Watch me." She pushed Raye aside and began to walk down the stairs taking out her cell phone.
"I didn't know you had a cell phone?" Amy asked her.
"I have a lot of things you don't know about Amy, at least you were honest with me. I'll miss you." She said softly. She dialed on her phone and held it up to her ear.
"Serena, wait, we're in this together, it's like a deal, this is the way our destiny works." Darien ran out shouting to her.
"If my destiny has to do with you guys, then I want a different package deal." She turned to look at them, halfway down the steps. Then she talked on her cell phone. "Yea, now please, thanks, love you." She hung up and walked down the steps. As if on cue the same black little sports car came zooming down the street. She jumped the last couple of steps, and hopped into the little car. Tossing her bag in the back seat, the little car zoomed off into the distance.
Darien just stood there, then his mind finally realized what had happened. "What the hell have I done?" he thought.
"Great, so now what do we do? She left us here, and we have an entire army to fight!" Raye grunted. Mina stood up and looked her in the eye.
"No Raye, You guys DROVE her AWAY!" Mina looked at her. Then she looked at all of them. "So now what do we do Raye? Does anybody know how to defeat the Negaverse without Serena's help?" Mina concluded.
"I think I could figure something out." Amy said, she looked very sad, and very confused.
Darien walked up to Raye and put his arms around her. "I don't know if we did the right thing…" Darien whispered into her ear.
"She'll get over it…we all will." She looked down.
**Meanwhile in the car**
"So you let them have it, huh?" Josh pulled into the driveway.
"Basically." Serena grabbed her bag from the back and unlocked the door.
"So you just told them to…?" Josh asked her.
"I just told them shut up and listen to me." She got out and slammed the door shut.
"Wow you let them have it." he opened the door to their house. Serena walked in and plopped down on the sofa in their living room.
"The way they acted was stupid, I was expecting a better reaction, but they didn't really seem to care. Well they did when I told them I quit, but not as much as I wanted them to. Oh well." She sighed and laid back on the sofa.
"Want a drink?" Josh shouted from the kitchen.
"Evian!" she shouted back. Josh came back with a sand witch for two, a Pepsi, and a bottle of Evian.
"Who said I wanted a sand witch?" she asked him.
"Who said I made it for you?" he told her. Josh dug into his sand witch. Serena picked at the sides of it eating some of it.
"So what are we going to do now?" Serena asked her cousin.
"We are going to go home, back to LA, so if you want, you can join your family, or you can stay here and hope you never run into them again." Josh told her, then smiled with his cheeks filled with what ever he had put into that sand witch. Serena smiled and kissed his sand witch filled cheek.
"Thank you." She smiled and got up to go up to her room.
"NO PROBLEM!" he shouted with his mouth filled with food.
**A Few Weeks Later**
Everyone was sitting at Raye's temple. There had been 5 attacks since Serena had left; each battle getting harder every time. Everyone was exhausted, they couldn't hold up much longer, but what else could they have done. Serena had left. Darien had tried to call her, but every time he called a guy that sounded around his age would pick up saying she wasn't home, or she was out of town. Everyone sitting there was waiting for Mina. She came running up with a videotape in her hand. She was smiling; it was the first smile they had seen ever since Serena quit.
"Oh My God, you guys have to see this!" she laughed.
"What's on the tape?" Lita asked her.
"Oh, just some random hilarious crap!" she giggled. "Raye can we play it on your VCR?" she asked.
"I suppose so." Raye got up and led the way to her room. They all sat down as Raye and Mina began to turn on the equipment. As soon as Raye sat down Mina popped in the tape. The tape started with Mina sitting on a sofa with other people, and one guy was talking, and telling them about an event that happened to them. He had long hair that came right under his chin and dark skin.
"Okay so I we're trying to order Jack in the Box." He began.
"Yea but he kept messing up our order." A girl with long brown curly hair interrupted. Everyone in the tape laughed. Mina explained who everyone was, they were all mostly in their pajamas.
"That's Lena and her brother Jake." Another girl began to talk.
"Did I ever tell you about the Dancing we went to when we were in France?" a girl with very dark brown and red hair began. Everyone in the tape replied "No." to her. "Okay so when Josh and I went to France with our families, we went dancing with the rest of our cousins, and they call them Discos there." She told them, pronouncing Discos with an accent. "So me and Lena are doing our thing, you know, just dancing around you know. So we look over at Josh and we see him with this one French chick, and he's doing his little dance, like the white boy, or the running man or something." The girl with dark hair explained, she was curled up on the sofa next to Mina. As she was telling them she did a little motion with her hands and arms to show everyone how Josh was dancing. "So he's doing his little dance and the girl is like jumping up and down on him!" everyone began to laugh at one of the guys there. "She's like Brittany Spears or Jennifer Lopez dancing with him, and he still there doing the running man." She laughed. The tape then cut to a bunch of people sitting in a car at night. Mina was obviously holding the camera, you could tell because her voice was the loudest.
"Jake! We're lost!" someone shouted out.
"WE'RE NOT LOST!" Jake shouted back. You could hear laughter in the back round.
"What's going on here?" Amy asked Mina.
"We're coming back from Target and Jake got us lost. It was around 11:30ish at night, and it was Jake with four girls including me. We were all telling him that he got us lost, actually he got us lost about 4 times that night." She giggled. Lita laughed with her. The tape cut again to a girl's bedroom. It was the same girl who was telling the dancing story. Darien looked at her long and hard. He felt as if he know her. Her hair was long, and still dark, she was lying in a bed with her hair open, not tied back, not in braids or anything, she was talking to someone who sat on the floor next to her bed.
"Mina who's that girl we keep seeing?" Darien asked her not taking his eyes off the television.
"Oh her…" Mina sweat dropped.
"Yes, her." Darien asked her again.
"Oh that's, uhh, Rio." Mina quickly blurted out, she had totally forgotten that Serena was in the tape, well she knew she was in some parts of it, but not all of the parts!
"She looks familiar." Raye told her. "Doesn't she love?" she asked Darien.
"Yea, very familiar." He told her. Mina had to think of something fast.
"Well you probably saw her before at the arcade with me, we're old family friends, her Mum knew my Mum that sort of thing." She smiled. "You're dead if they find out." She thought.
"Probably." Amy said. Just then Luna and Artimis walked in.
"What are you all doing? This is suppose to be a scout meeting? Not a slumber party!" she scolded all of them.
"She's right you know, now that Serena's gone, we need a better strategy plan. Artimis added on. Everyone sighed as they walked back outside…
Well everyone that's it for chapter one! I'll get out chapter two as soon as possible! I hope you all liked it! Please Review! Cheers.
