A New Knowledge...and the after effects



This story is based on the question,

"If everyone would have found out

Serena was Rini's mom early on, how

would they react. How would they

find out, and what will Darien think

when he finds out?" Well, I guess

that is acually more than one question

but you get the idea. I've had this in

my head for a while and I just needed

to get it out! So here it is! This takes

place when Rini doesn't get picked up

on time from school and that moster

with the drum that causes thunderstorms

appears and The girls start floating in

the cafe later on. Remeber? well, I'm

changing a couple of things! Happy Reading!!!!! ^_^





Your Rini's Mom?!

I slammed the phone down on the reciever. "Rini's went missing again! Darn that kid! Now *I* have to go out in the *thunderstorm* to find her. And I *hate* thunderstorms!" I ran out of the phone booth where I had just called Sammy at home to see if she was there. No such luck. I had on my white shorts and baby blue top, with a large green rain coat that almost went to my knees. I was running as fast as I could, back tracking my steps and thinking of where she might go. As I rounded another corner I bumped into someone and stumbled back. What a time to have a klutz attack!

"Oh! I'm so sorry, I....Darien?" I cut off my appology as I realized who it was. *Why* am I always bumping into him? Not that I'm complaining, I kinda *love* being in his arms, but now is definatly not that time! I have got to find Rini!

"Serena?" A bolt of lighting stuck across the sky a bit to close for my comfort. I jumped after I saw it and heard the thunder not even a second later. I jumped right into Dariens arms. I heard him sigh then say, "Serena..." He was pushing me away with regret? I don't get him! What in the world does he regret? Is it pushing me away? Get real Serena, hahaha, like he would regret that. I didn't like the way my thoughts were going so I said the first thing that came to mind.

"Rini's missing!"

"What? We have to find her!"

"You'll help?" My eyes brightened at the thought of spending time with Darien. Even if it is just to find the only thing distracting him from me. "I ...I know you like Rini better than me. Your alway a lot nicer to her."

"Serena, a little kid is missing! Of course I'll help. Come on."

With that said we started running down the street again. It felt like old times.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"DUM! DUM! DUM! I'm gonna give you the shock of your life kid!" A monster. It was female, with wild hair, red on one side and blue on the other. She was weraing a white jump suti with red and blue patterns on it. She had a drum with lightning bolts drawn on it, with two sticks in her hand. Rini screamed and got to her feet. She turned around and started running. Oh no! What do I do?! She thought to herself panicked. I need a place to hide! She looked around and spotted an alley. Now to distract it! Rini thought. She turned around and looked to a point behind the thing. "Oh my gosh! What is that? A pink elephant?" The monster looked confused and turned around to see the pink elephant. Ha! Rini thought. Oldest trick in the book! These guys just get more and more stupid every day! She turned around and ran as fast as she could to the alley and slipped in just in time. The monster looked around furious trying to find the kid. "AAARRRRGGGGG!" It screamed in frustration.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Oh my gosh! Darien did you hear that?"

"Yeah it came from that street down there!"

We ran a few more feet and came to a stop to find Rini running into an alley while a monster was looking around for something. "You go get the girls and I'll get Rini, Ok?"

Darien looked at me doubtful but then consented and ran off to the cafe I told him they would probably be at. I tranformed into Sailor Moon and waited for the thing to leave in search of Rini. Is it just me or do they get more dumb evertime I fight them? Oh well. When I saw it fly off in a direction, I ran into the street and to the alley I knew Rini would be in. I heard voices in the alley and listened.

"I hate Serena! She doesn't get anything right!"

"Small Lady! Why do you say such horrid things about *your mother*?"

I gasped and slapped my hand to my mouth before I made myself known.

"What?!" Rini shrieked, "You mean when Dad, told me all thoes stories about Sailor Moon... He was talking about Mom?"

"Think about it, Small Lady. Are they really that diferent? Look at her face next time you see her. Watch how she cares about her friends, the scouts."

"Then that would mean my dad is...*gasp* But why aren't they together now?! He broke up with her!" Rini was in tears now.

"I think we have an eavesdropper" Sailor Pluto said. Rini ran out of the alley and found a very dazed Sailor Moon almost in tears.

Sailor Pluto in her little ball, floated out into the street and in front of Sailor Moon. "Sailor Moon? Do you understand this?"

She laughed and a couple tears escaped her eyes, "That sure does explain a lot!" She joked, "I knew something wasn't right. Not in a bad way of course."

She looked to Rini who was still in tears. She wouldn't say a word and kept her distance.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Rini's in trouble?!" Mina exclaimed.

"Yes and Sailor Moon needs back up, so hurry!"

"Got it!" Thr four voices echoed. They all called out their tranfomations at once,

"Mars Power,"

"Jupiter Power,"

"Venus Power,"

"Mercury Power,"

"MAKE UP!" They all shouted the last part as one then ran out the door as the colored ribbon faded into their sailor fuka's.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I heard footsteps approching and tried to dry my tears. I looked over and saw the scouts and Tuxedo Mask running around the corner. As soon as they got close enough Rini ran into Tuxedo Mask's arms and cried. Is it that horrible to find out I'm her mother in the future? I thought to myself. Pluto had already turned back into Luna P and followed Rini. I looked over at her with much hurt in my eyes. When she turned around I tried to hide it but I guess she saw anyway. "Mo-" Her cry was muffled by Tuxedo Mask's hand as he saw the monster coming. He hurried all of us into the alley and told Rini to keep quiet. Was she going to say Mom? I cried harder at the thought and the scouts gave me odd looks. I tried to keep it quiet but was having a hard time. After a short period of time I managed to calm down and get some determination back.

"Come on scouts! Lets dust this thing!" I wispered to them. I gave Rini a smile and a hug before I walked out into the street in full veiw of the monster. I didn't even give an introduction. I just sreamed out, "MOON TIARA MAGIC!" And let it fly.

The monster whirled around in time to catch it. "TIARA TRAP!" I called again as the tiara widened and wraped around the thing. The girls looked at me shocked. "Well!" I shouted to them. "What are you waiting for? Wanna help me out?" They snapped out of their trance and Jupiter was the first to attack.

"JUPITER THUNDER, CRASH!" The monster shook from the amount of electricity before it wore off and she looked at Jupiter maddly. "That'll teach you to play with lightning again!" Jupiter laughed.

Mars was the next to have a turn, as the monster got out of my tiara's grip and it returned to me. "MARS FIRE, IGNITE!" The monster dodged and lunged straight for me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I heard Mar's attack and looked up again. She missed. But the next thing I saw horrified me to no end! I shouted out for her, "MOM!" She looked at me as she threw herself out of the way. But it wasn't far enough, the monster ended up slicing her side with one of it's sticks. "NOOO!" I cried out. I wiggled around in Tuxedo Mask's grip. He may not care but I do. When I got free and fell to the ground, I landed on my feet, if a bit clumsy. I looked up to find a look of shock and horror on his face. Maybe he does care. I thought but remembered my mom still out there and ran to her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I tried to stand but it was no good. I felt dizzy. "MERCURY BUBBLES BLAST!" I heard Sailor Mercury call out. A mist filled the air and all I could see was the scouts, and Rini who was crying over me. "Aim for her drum. It's her power sorce. Once it's gone, you can kill it with no problem." Mercury said. "Right. VENUS CHAIN ENCIRCLE!" The chain went through the drum and wraped around it. Pulling the drum back with the chain Venus gave an 'ok' sign and smiled. "MARS FIRE IGNITE!" As the fog evaporated you could see the monster turn to dust.

"Sailor Moon? Rini?" Rini was still looking at me crying uncontrolably.

"It's ok. I'll be fine."

"No! It's not ok! It's all my fault!" She cried harder. Tuxedo Mask came over and tried to pick Rini up but she pushed him away. "No. I want to stay with my mommy!" she screamed in frustration when he tried to comfort her again. Everyone gave a gasp of shock and I just looked at her wide eyed. She remembered what she was thinking earlier and went to voice it, "You may not care," She glared at Darien the best she could for a 6 year old, "But I do!"

"Oh, Rini. Come here." I tried to sit up. It hurt really bad. She ran back to me and I hugged her for all I was worth. I knew I felt connected to her in some way. Now I know why. She's apart of me.

"Y..Your her M...MOTHER?!" Tuxedo Mask screamed. The girls were still in shock.

I sighed. "Yes. Or I will be. She came from the future, remember?"

"Who's the father?" Venus piped in. I looked down and Rini looked at Tuxedo Mask.

"We should discus this some other place, don't ya think. Sailor Moon also has some wounds we need to heal." Mercury, the voice of wisdom said. Remind me to thank her later on. I let go of Rini and tried to stand up. As soon as I did I doubled over in pain.

"Sailor Moon!" Jupiter exclaimed, "Do you need help?" I shook my head no, but she came over anyway. I clutched at my side with one hand as she wrapped my other around her neck. We started off to Darien's apartment.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Now then." Mercury said, "Let me get this straight. Rini is from the future. In the future you are Neo Queen Serenity of Neo Tokyo in the 30th century, and Darien is Neo King Endymon. Rini is Darien and your daughter. And last but certainly not least, she came here to find her mom, you, to save 30th century Tokyo. Correct?" Sailor Mercury looked between Rini and the now bandaged Sailor Moon. They both nooded their heads and Mercury continued, "How long have you known this Sailor Moon?"

"Acually, I have had a strange feeling about Rini for awhile now but I just figured this out tonight right before you guys showed up."

"Strange feeling?"

"Yeah, well I felt connected to her. Kinda the same way I feel connected to you, Darien." Sailor Moon looked at her lap from where she was sitting on the couch and added, "I guess it was because shes my daughter that I have a link to her, although not as good as your link to her. We do kind of act alike sometimes." She forced a laugh out. Nobody thought it was real for a second. Sailor Moon sighed and got up from her position on the couch. "Didn't you feel anything? Something about her? You must have. You treated her like a princess!" She sighed and looked around for Rini. She was standing off to the side clutching Luna P behind Venus. "Rini." Sailor Moon walked over to her Daughter and Rini came forward. "Mommy. I'm sorry for causing so much trouble."

Sailor Moon gasped as she gave Rini a big hug, "You didn't cause any trouble. You hear me?" Rini nodded and gave Sailor Moon a big hug. "Can we go for a walk to the park? Its hot in here." Sailor Moon laughed and said, "Sure, I think thats a good idea. Girls?" The scouts nodded and headed out leaving Darien behind.

As soon as they stepped into the hallway there was a huge gust of wind and a voice called out, "My Queen." The scouts backed up into the apartment again and Rini ran to hide in Dariens room. As everyone stood in the living room a black wind picked up again and a figure in white appeared before them.
