Prologue
Rei, Ami, Lita, Mina, Darien, Luna and Artemis sat silently, in a circle on the cool earth, in the temple gardens, tears silently coursed down the girls faces.
Between them sat a wooden box, about the size of a shoe box, it was beautifully engraved with images of the moon kingdom, the scouts corresponding planets, and a rose. On each of the plant images, their was a small hole, like a lock.
"Sh.should we open it?" Rei questioned softly, her voice hoarse from hours of crying. Luna nodded, "Serena's mother said that she found it in her room, addressed to us."
The four remaining scouts glanced at each other through the inky darkness and nodded, leaning forward each scout took their transformation wand and placed it in the corresponding lock, after a few seconds the box seemed to glow and a soft click told them it was now unlocked.
Sitting back the girls waited silently unsure what to do, after a few minutes Rei lent forward and removed the lid. The box was full of odds and ends, ticket stubs, photos, trinkets collected from days out, but on the top lay an envelope with the words 'To my scouts', written across it.
When no one made a move for the letter, Darien lifted the letter out of the box carefully, opened the envelope and placed the letter down infront of Luna for her to read it. The envelope, however, he held onto tightly, she had written on it, it smelled faintly of her.
Clearing her throat slightly Luna lent over the paper and began to read.
My dear scouts, Luna and Artemis,
If you are reading this, it means that I am no longer with you, I hope that this can be of some comfort to you in your grief. Firstly you must all know that you have not failed, and that you must continue to be strong and fight the Negaverse . This box contains my memories of our friendship- I decided to collect them together after you all lost your memories, and once you remembered who you were I decided that I should leave this box for you in case any thing should ever happen to you . Being a Sailor scout, living this double life is never easy, and I know that I takes a lot of strength for all of you, and I want you to know how proud I am of all of you.
Luna and Artemis- thank you for your help and guidance, I know that I' hardly what you wanted for a leader of the scouts, but I couldn't have come as far as I have without the two of you. Please don't hide what's in your hearts.
Ami- you'll always be the brains of the group, be confident in your intelligence, I know that you will go far.
Mina- thank you for always taking care of me, you're kindness, friendship and support has always meant so much to me. Be confident and follow your heart.
Lita- Thank you for always cheering me up, you will always be the practical one of the group, and they'll need you now to help them laugh. Chase your dreams, they'll lead you to a bright and happy future.
Rei- I have always admired the strength you have, and since I first met you I knew that you would make a wonderful leader, now is your chance. Don't ever try to change who you are, and don't feel guilty about our arguments, you encouraged me to be strong- my best friend, I pray that you will achieve all I had dreamed of for my life.
Be strong and don't be afraid to live, you are sailor scouts but firstly you are friends, sisters.
In my heart, this is not goodbye, I know that we shall meet again, All my love, Serena.
Luna finished reading, tears pouring down her face, tearing her eyes away from the letter she gazed up at the scouts, they were crying heavily now, more so than they had at the funeral, that morning.
Sighing Lita lent back onto a tree, "I guess this means that we continue the fight." The others nodded in silence, "For Serena," Rei said softly. The girls smiled, "For Serena," they said in unison, then linked hands.
Darien watched silently as the girls began to go through the box, smiling, laughing and crying at the same time, he missed Serena so much, she'd only been gone a week and he felt as if he couldn't breathe, how was he supposed to live the rest of his life?
After a while the girls stopped and glanced up at Darien, he raised an eyebrow in confusion, and Mina pulled another envelope out of the box, this time addressed to him, and handed it to him.
Taking the envelope in shaking hands he stood up and walked away, he couldn't read this with them around him. He walked in a trance like state to he reached the park, his legs led him to the bench which he and Serena always used to sit at.
Sitting down slowly he carefully peeled open the letter and pulled out a folded piece of paper, inside was a photo of them taken when they had hired a boat and sailed across the lake. Her smiling face, the sight of her arms wrapped around him and the knowledge he could never hold her again bought tears to his eyes, which he shed silently.
Gazing back at the paper he began to read the letter to himself.
Dear Darien,
As I write this I pray that you will never have to read this, but in my heart I know you will.
I love you so much, I don't think that there are words to express it, you are my life Darien, my heart, I don't think that I could live if you weren't in my life, but I'm asking you to live now. So many people are counting on you, the scouts need your help and guidance, especially now, the very earth relies on your protection.
Live your life Darien- find your princess and be happy. But know that I will never stop loving, no matter how far apart we are. I will always watch over you, my love.
Eternally yours, Serena.
Darien slid from the bench and began to sob uncontrollably, why did she have to take that shot? Why did she have to save him?.
