Chapter 1
It has been years now since the last battle. Serena is now a freshman at a college university in Japan. It's a bit far from her home, there she dorms with Hotaru and Amy. In the last battle, Raye, Mina, Lita and Darien all died protecting her. Serena still mourns for their death though in her heart she will never forget them, their loyalty, their friendship and their love. Setsuna is still in the Time gates, while Haruka and Michiru were touring the world. It has been a long time since there had been any attacks. Now Serena is a good student with honors, since now she has a lot more time to spend in her studies.
Serena was dreaming, in her dream "She was sitting at a field covered with different kinds and colors of flowers. She was smiling serenely touching the petal of a rose. When suddenly grey clouds cover the once blue skies and everything seems to melt away, her entire vision covered in darkness. Then, she saw her sister. Her sister was reaching out for her, captive by something, which she could not see. Crying out though no words escape from her lips. Her sister was struggling until the entire darkness consumed her." Serena writhed in her bed, grasping her covers highly. "Yui!" she uttered. "NO! don't take her away too!" she moaned. "Yui…Yui! Don't leave me too!" Serena gasped screaming, waking up.
"Ren?" Hotaru flicked the bed light on, approaching her. Laying her hand on her friend's shoulder gently. "What's wrong?" She asked worried Serena sighed. "I had a very troubling dream, I couldn't save another important person to me again" Serena murmured. "Want to tell me about it?" Hotaru asked tenderly. Serena shook her head. "Not right now, I'll tell you tomorrow" Serena promised. "We'd better not disturb Amy…" she said looking at her other friend sound asleep in bed.
~The next day, early morning~
Rrring!!! Yui picked up the phone of her private line.
Yui: Hello?
Serena: Yui? It's me.
Yui: Ren! I miss you! You haven't called for so long.
Serena: Yeah. I know. Listen, I've decided to go home this weekend after all.
Yui: Really? That's great! Mother will be thrilled, she misses you so much.
Serena: I know… I miss you guys too. Well, that's it I guess. And Yui…
Yui: Hmmm?
Serena: Take care ok? And be careful. I love you.
Yui: Sure, I love you too. Bye
~End of phone conversation~
"Yui, Hurry up or you'll be late" her mother called out from below.
"I'll be right down" Yui called back.
After she finished dressing…"Hey mom! Serena's coming home this weekend!" Yui told her mother excitedly as she was walking down the stairs. "That's great" her mother said smiling. Yui took a slice of bread from the kitchen table and ran to the door. "Bye mom." Yui waved as she closed the door. Coming to school just in time.
After class, Yui waited patiently for Miaka to get out of the detention room. Her best friend got into trouble again for sleeping in class. "Yui! Thanks for waiting." Miaka said panting, smiling gratefully. "No problem" Yui smiled back. They walked out of the school together, chatting. "Sensei was so mean to me! It's not my fault his class is so boring!" Miaka pouted. Yui looked at her friend amused. "How was I supposed to know which number is a perfect square or not? I hate math!" Miaka complained. Yui allowed her friend to rant for a while, smiling to herself. "Miaka I have to go to the library today, would you like to come along? Yui asked her friend looking sideways at her. Miaka nodded while eating a lollipop she had just gotten from her pocket.
As they were near the library, "Oh, wow! The library is so big!" Miaka exclaimed awe in her voice. Yui nodded in agreement. Inside the library, Yui lost track of Miaka's whereabouts. After an hour Yui was finished with her report. "Miaka? Let's go, I'm done already." Yui called out. She checked the rows of shelves but found no one. "Where was she? She was only here a few minutes ago… It's so like her to go wandering off." Yui thought with a frown.
"Miaka?" Yui called out again walking up the stairs. She opened a door signed "staff only". She saw a book lying on the ground, as she went over to pick it up, there was a test paper beside it with Miaka's name on it. Yui picked up Miaka's test paper first. "Ouch…" Yui thought wincing staring at her friend's large F in English. "I thought she only hated math, Her mom's going to kill her." Yui shook her head at how carefree her friend was a bout her grades. She also picked up the fallen book, when blue light enveloped her body while moments ago there had been a red light enveloping Miaka's body as well. "What's this?" Yui thought alarmed, as she was suck into a different world.
