Chapter one
"Luna, what's the big deal? Why did you have to drag me out of bed at this ungodly hour?" Serena wined as she rubbed the sleep from her light blue eyes. It was only 5:00 AM, and it was the weekend!! Luna had obviously lots her mind.
"Serena, please, what Artemis and I have to tell you and the other scouts is very important." the black cat hissed, her brown eyes narrowing as Serena rolled her eyes and covered her mouth in a yon.
"Sorry Luna, but I'm going to have to agree with Serena on this one. It's way too early for a meeting. My brain is on shut down mood right now." Mina stated as she too stifled a yon.
"You mean there are other moods for your brain Mina? When are you going to start using them I wonder...." Lita asked, her green eyes full of humor.
"Shut up Lita, it's too early." both Serena and Mina muttered, their blue eyes shooting ice at their good friend.
"Stop complaining you too. I'm always up this early, so I don't see the big deal..." Raye shouted, standing up tall and then crossing her arms over her chest.
"Ohh, is that why your shirt is on inside out?" Lita asked with a smirk.
"GIRLS!! That is quite enough. Dose any one know where Darien is?" Luna shouted, placing a paw over her eyes in exasperation.
"He's getting Rini from her friend's house. He thought if it was an emergency, she might want to be here." Serena answered after she rubbed her eye's once more. "Why dose he need to be here for this anyway. He's never come to any of our other scout meetings."
"Because he is going to be directly effected by what we have to say. It is important that he is here!"
"Why? What is it that's so damn important?!"
"Wait until everyone is here, and then we'll tell you!"
"But I'm tired! I want this over with as soon as-"
"Looks like we came just in time Rini, Serena looks like she's about to blow." Darien told the sleepy pink haired girl in his arms. When she only muttered something sleepily, he put her gently down onto a blanket and let her sleep.
Serena just glared at him and then looked away. She hadn't been talking for him for two weeks. It was driving Darien insane. He still had no idea what he had done to make her so mad. He had tried saying sorry, but she would just look at him, shake her meatball head and walk away. Not even her friends knew why she was so upset with him.
"What ever, Luna, now that he's here, can you tell us what's going on?" Serena bite out as she sate as fare away from Darien as possible.
"Right, Artemis will you please begin?" Luna asked as she walked into the center of the circle the girls had gathered in.
"Right, well, you all know about your old lives on the moon. So I wont boar you with that part. What you all do not know about, is your family." Artemis began, in a soft voice.
"Hold it, we all know about our family. You guys told us about them, remember? You told us of our lives before we were reborn." Amy blurted out, confused by what was being said.
"Yes, well, we thought it would be better if we left out one or to....miner facts."
"Like what?!" everyone shouted at once.
"Like the existence of your siblings!" Artemis yelled back, then turned a dark shad of blue when he realized what he had said.
"Smooth move Artemis. Really I don't know why I bother letting you do anything." Luna scolded angrily. She knew she should have told them herself. But no, king Artemis HAD to be the one to tell them. Looking at the girls faces she winced, this was not going to be simple.
"Maybe I should go, this doesn't seem like something I should be here for." Darien stated carefully as he stood up.
"This dose indeed effect you Darien. You see, you, too have a sibling. A sister in fact, if our information proves to be correct." Luna stated bluntly before Darien could take another step.
"You had no right to keep this from me Luna. I'm not one of your scouts for you to be deciding what you should and should not be telling me! What could you have been thinking?!" Darien demanded angrily. All his life he had thought he was alone. But all this time he had a sibling. A sister who had been as alone as he had. And still was.
"We where thinking they would never develop powers and would never have to effect any of your lives. You don't understand, it was believed that one day these children would end the world. We thought that since they never showed any signs of power, we would not have to worry about them. We have found out recently that they have, indeed had power, but had been hiding it for years. Only recently have they started using there power out in the open." Artemis shouted. This was a touchy subject for everyone.
None of them had believed that sending the children away had been a good idea. Queen Serenity and the other mothers had been devastated. They had to watch their children being shut into capsules and sent away. None of them had ever forgiven themselves for what they had done.
"The old king of the moon had demanded we send them away. Though it was not likely the children would be evil, he could not take the chance. He forced everyone to send the children away. He even placed his own son into the pod. He wouldn't let Queen Serenity say good bye, fearing she would grow to 'attached' to the child. She had had the child for two years already. What he truly feared was his son taking the thrown from him. Serena, you had just been born when it occurred. It was one of the darkest times on the moon until the negiverse." Luna quietly explained, tears filling her brown eyes and rolling down her black fur.
"But if the King of the moon was trying to protect his thrown, why send the other children? Why not just his?" Raye demanded, her purple blue eye darkening with anger.
"That, is still unknown to this day. We don't even know who made the prediction of the children being evil. But he was the king, what he said, went. A few weeks after the children were sent away, he died. Some people believed it was the children getting back at the old king for sending them away. Other's said it was his hart braking for having to send his own son away."
"I thought you said he wanted to send his son away!"
"Some of the people refused to believe their king would do such a horrible thing as to sentence his own son to exile for no reason. So they deluded themselves into believing he was force to do it."
"So what do you expect us to do Luna, kill our own siblings just because they have powers?!" Serena shouted angrily after she got over her shock.
"Of course not!! But now that they are using their powers, they need to be taught how to use them properly. That's why we had them all transferred into the orphanage here in Tokyo." Artemis replied, appalled that they could think he or Luna would ever ask them to do such a thing.
"Where were they before if not in Tokyo?" Mina asked quietly, still shocked by the news she had a sibling.
"America."
"AMERICA?!" everyone shouted at once.
