"What are you trying to say"
"We are saying, Serena dear, that your father has gotten a promotion" said Irene
"Yes I understood that part but the whole moving to another country, your gonna have to run it by me again" said Serena.
"The promotion is in America dear and well it's a huge opportunity, not just for your father but all of us" said Irene.
"But what about school and all my friends here and I mean…………what about Luna" said Serena how was trying to come up with a good excuse to y they should not move at all. Both Ken and Irene redirected there attention to Luna the cat, who look very happy on her soft cushion . She raised her head to look at the family but mostly at Serena.
"Meow" she went.
"Luna will be just fine. I know she is not the most social cat on the block but she will be just fine."
"What about Ami, Mina, Rei and Lita. They have been my best friends for like ever and you want to take it all away from me. You said that the move to juban was the last move. Remember you said that eight years go and every other offer you have had, you turned down because of that promise. Why is this any different. " said Serena trying to get them to see how hypocritical they were being.
"Well Serena the money is in the lot but all it's a better place for you and Samuel is there as well. We would be closer to him" added Irene.
Serena frowned at her old brother. He had just turned twenty and if she remembered rightly, he had taken the opportunity to be schooled in America because of how controlling her parents had become and he knew that he could not be controlled if they had huge ocean separating him. So she was probably doing him a favor by have the argument with them. No way was she going to America she settled on that fact because she knew it for sure.
"Sam is going to hate that. Don't you remember, you tried to get him to become a doctor inside of doing his art studies. In fact you wouldn't talk to him for a whole year when that happened so that's not a good idea and anyway, he kind of doesn't like you and anyway what about my friends" gowned Serena.
"Samuel is our child and he will be happy to see us Serena. He loves me and your father." Irene tried to convince her daughter.
" Completely delusional" said Serena to herself.
"Your friends will understand Serena, you must have known that this was going to happen at one stage" said Ken
"No I didn't because you promised it wouldn't happen." said Serena.
She than continued to run up the stairs whilst calling Luna to follow her. She got into her bedroom and left the door open for a few seconds to let Luna proceed into her bedroom than she slammed it shut, completely ignoring her parents called. Serena sat down on her desk chair and grabbed her communicator to call the scouts.
"Guys meeting at crown in thirty minutes. I have some serious news." said Serena.
"Okay" said Lita
"Sure" said Ami
"See you all there" said Mina
"I'm on my way" said Rei
Serena closed it up and put it down. Serena changed into a pair of jeans and put a hot pink tank top on. She got her small shoulder bag. She put the communicator and her transformation brooch in it. She continued to put her phone and Ipod In there.
Luna had not said a word. She was waiting for Serena to calm down slowly as she ran around her room. Serena than got a hair tie and but her hair up into a messy bun at the back off her head
"Okay in the bag Luna" said Serena and she open the flip on top.
"No I will not Serena. I hate it in there" said Luna, speaking for the firs time.
"Well we don't have time now come on" said Serena and Luna did because she agreed on the time issue.
Serena walked down the stairs and got to the hall way when Irene spoke. "Where are you going"? she asked.
Serena knew she really didn't have time to listen to her mother's questions and than actually answer them. She need to get a move on before she was late meeting up with the girls. "To see my friends. Since you are trying to take them away from me by moving" said Serena.
Serena never looked at anyone will very mean eyes besides the enemies she would face as sailor moon. They truly were scum but her mother really annoyed her by supporting her father's decision. Not even considering that she might be upset by it. Thy just expected her to go along with the whole deal like a perfect child. If only they knew about the evil she faced everyday and night for the good of the world. But no they didn't know and wouldn't understand anyway. Serena knew her scouts could hold there own in a fight any day but not being with them fighting the good fight would kill her inside and not having her friends with her would even more. But they didn't seem to care. It was all about the money. If only they knew.
"Serena this is for the best please understand that." said Irene.
"I can't understand it right now because I don't like it, now I have to go or I will be late meeting the girls at crown." said Serena.
"Serena please stay, we could have a shopping spree, you spend to much time at that arcade, its not healthy. Said Irene with worry.
"Well you wont have to worry about that for long, y mum see you in a few hours" and Serena took off. Not wanting to give her mum another chance to talk. Usually she would love a shopping spree but at this moment it was the kind of things that had found their place at the very back of her mind. Serena rushed out the door to get to Crown on time for she was usually the last on their out of everyone.
"Serena that wasn't very nice" said Luna as she lifted her head out of her bag to look at Serena.
"Luna if I move what do you think is going to happy. You will have to come with me, what about the scouts what will they do with out you. Also I would have to hang up my sailor suit. The kind of evil we fight is not where I'm going. You might even have to stay here, where you are needed. Luna its just all to much right now. Whit about the girls as well. My friends" said Serena looking at Luna with a lot of hurt in her eyes.
"I understand your concern but your mother does not no of the complications of the situation. You can't blame her" said Luna.
"I know but it doesn't change much." said Serena as she entered crown and as usual she was the last one there.
"Sorry I'm late" said Serena.
"Well that doesn't matter right now, tell us. What's up sere" said Lita.
Serena sat down and she look each on of them all in the eye. All of them strong headed in every way and each powerful. She was proud to be there leader but she would have to step down. "I'm going to New York" said Serena.
"I hear the shopping is really good there" said Mina.
"Yeah get me one of those fendi bags, they are really in" said Rei.
"The food is so diverse over there I hear. Your gonna love spending sometime there. Just tell us all about it when you get back" said Lita.
"Yes I hear good things as well" added Ami.
They all begin talking about New York and how awesome it was. It left Serena in mess that she finally just said " I'm moving there for good in a week or so" said Serena. This out burst had the whole of Crown silent as everyone look at her with surprise and Mina started crying. Whilst Lita dropped her Milkshake on the floor. Ami and Rei just looked surprised and eyed her with a dumfounded expression.
"Anyway its happening and that is what this meeting was about" said Serena. While they got used to the news, Serena pulled Luna out of her bag and put her on her lap and have her a few strokes, while she waited.
"But you can't go, what are we going to do without you" said Mina as she wiped her tears away from her face, making her eyeliner run down her face.
"I tried to convince my parents it was a mistake but they wont listen. I have complete faith that all of you can fight anything together. I'm just really gonna miss you guys. A lot." said Serena as a single tear streamed down her face.
"Ditto girl, but please don't go, what are we gonna do. " said Rei
"Well I think Luna will have to stay with you guys because I'm going to be out for a while till I can get back. Until than Mina will be in charge" said Serena.
Ami, Rei and Lita all groaned.
"Oh so that's the way its gonna be than" said Mina and she crossed her arms and looked away.
"You guys come on, something might happen while I'm gone, I just want everything to be good." said Serena.
"Can Luna stay with you Rei?" asked Serena.
"Of course"
"Ladies, we must keep our cool and we are going to have do some serious training" said Luna.
"Why" said Rei with surprise.
"Because you are a sailor scout down. You are all going to have to work even harder. With Serena and the Crystal gone, we might have trouble" said Luna with worry.
"I have faith you will all kick ass, so don't worry. I will be back as soon as I can" said Serena.
"Yeah but Juban without you, I don't know how that is going to work. Come back soon ok" said Lita.
"We will miss you so much" said Ami.
"Serena did you have a nice time at Crown" smiled Irene.
"Of course. My friends where there with me" answer Serena.
" Darling please know this is for the best" said Irene.
"At this point, I can't believe it mum, sorry" Serena said.
"I understand" said Irene and she watch as her only daughter walked about the stairs to her bedroom.
"Luna what I'm I going to do"? asked Serena
"Be strong, it will all work out" said Luna.
"I hope so. Well I'm going to go take a shower." said Serena and she headed straight off to the bathroom. As soon as Serena ended the bathroom Luna turned to the mirror. Her crescent symbol above her eyes shined in a holograph project form at the mirror. The mirror turned silver and a voice came in.
"Luna, its been so long since I have heard from you." said the voice.
"This is a business call so no ideas." said Luna.
"Fine what is it.
"One of the soldiers will ender your territory soon" informed Luna.
"Really, and why is that" ?
"Simple case of the parents want to move."
"Oh that's right your still working with high school girls."
"Shut up and listen closely. She will not interfere with your business but you leave her be" said Luna.
"Relax we protect people here, just like you protect people over there" it said.
"That is not protection. You just love the power as do your fighters. But either way nothing is to happen while is in your territory, got it" said Luna.
"Fine but they wouldn't even bother with her."
"Oh really and does Endymion still have the same reputation" said Luna.
"Endymion is nothing but a professional at what he does"
"What ever you call him, he is insane and I want you to keep him under control while she is here and this conversation does not meet anyone's ears, you hear me" said Luna.
"Fine, I will watch closely over Endymion. But he is a leader in its self and if your soldier can't handle it than that is her problem, good bye Luna."
"Stupid idiot" said Luna as her crescent stopped flashing.
"Luna, who are you talking to" asked Serena when she entered the room.
"No one, don't worry. Just get some sleep" said Luna.
"Good idea"
