Chapter 2

The Real Thing

"I can't believe we said all of those things to Serena!" Ami screamed into the night.

"Their must be a better way I can't stand seeing her like this! I don't know what to do!" Lita said also still in her fit of sobs."There is nothing we can do, do you all want us to go to her house and tell her, 'oh yeah Serena the reason we said all of those things was because the Black Moon threatened us that they would kill you and Rini if we didn't kick you out of the team and our lives' yea cause she would believe that, she would be even more upset that we lied." Rei said trying to be the strong one.

"You know Rei, hiding what you are truly feeling makes it even worse just let it out and don't hold it in idiot!" Mina yelled at her,

"STOP! All of you stop! Their has to be something that we can do that will assure Serena and Rini's safety other than pushing her away. At least you didn't have to tell you girlfriend that you were 'cheating on them' and watch their heart break right in front of you and pretend not to care! So I don't want to hear a thing from any of you! So even if she does forgive you guys, she'll hate me for all eternity."

Darien said to them all feeling like the most horrible thing in the world. They never thought of it in that way, and when they did, they realized the even bigger mistake they made.

The Next Morning

"Serena's mom called you too?" Lita said to all the girls including Darien running toward her house, only to find her mother in complete tears her father in shock, and her brother no where to be found.

"What's the matter Mrs. Tsukino?" Lita said to Serna's mother.

"Serena is gone! She left late last night and I don't know what to do! She left us all letters, do you have any clues as to why she might have left?"

Mrs. Tsukino said to them all, but they were too in shock with the news that they had jus received.

"What about Rini? Where is she?" Darien said demanding to know. "In the letter that she left us she said that Rini went with her."

They were all even more shocked at the news then before, "Well where are the letters that she wrote?" Rei said wanting to know some answers, "they are in her room, you are more than welcome to go up." She said to them.

They all went upstairs only to find two letters to them one to the guys, and one to Darien. "I really don't want to read this, I already know what she's going to say, 'I HATE YOU, I HATE YOU, I HATE YOU!' that's what is going to be written on mine."

"and you don't think that'll be on ours?" Lita said to him,

"Well lets just read it, we deserve it anyway." Ami said to them.

Yet to their surprise, what Serena wrote was completely different then what the expected, they thought that she would hate them, when in fact she wrote that she loved them all still, after they all read the letter the saw five things wrapped on the bed with each of their names on one, and they opened them not to expect what they saw. Serena made every one of them a winter sweater for each of them in their favorite colors, and each had their sailor symbol on it which she did all herself the sweater and everything, they were so proud that they began crying again. "HOW?! HOW! How can we put her through all of that, and her not hate any one of us, not one! I feel like shit right now and I wish that this all never happened and that we were sitting here drinking hot cocoa with her and Rini right now!!" Lita screamed and began sobbing again, and this time Darien interrupted. "She still loves me, after I hurt her and broke her heart, how could she possibly love someone like me?! All I did was put her through pain, and she wishes me luck with my life?! How can she? I hate this I hate all of this." Darien said out loud as he began to cry knowing what he did was completely wrong and wished it never happened.

London, 2 months later

"So, how do you like the new place Rini?" Serena said to her,

"I love it! How are we affording it?" she asked Serena quizzically,

"Well the school is giving me money since I am independent, so no need to pay for school, also the government is giving me money so I can take are of you, and I have a job."

"Really? Doing what?" "I am a waitress at the restaurant two blocks down so just let me know if you need me."

"Alright will do mom"

"remember to everyone else you are my sister, so don't mess up okay?" s

he said to Rini seriously, "Alright sis, no prob.!"

"Well I actually, gotta go and head to work, so I'll see you tonight okay honey?"

"Yup no problem mom! Are you bringing home dinner?"

"Yeah, it'll just be late okay?" "Alright, see you later!" "Bye!"

after that Serena left and went to work.

Later that Night

"Rini! I'm home! I brought you home some Sheppard's Pie from the restaurant!" Serena screamed as she was trying to locate her little one, she panicked for a bit and saw her in her room crying holding a picture of herself, Serena and Darien.

"I miss daddy…" Rini sad as she clenched on to the picture tighter,

" I know you do honey, I do too, but Darien doesn't love me anymore, he loves Rei now, and we can't change that."

"Yes we can! He is meant to love you and only you and you know that,! So you have to train and we will fight side by side and be our own sailor scouts, together!"

Rini said louder almost screaming, "Rini keep quiet, no one must know about that but us, and you know that,"

"Why not? We can help the city here, and you can train and become a better sailor scout!"

"I don't know Rini, that's dangerous," You know you want to wear you sailor suit one more time, ad the more powerful you become, if you ever go back to Tokyo you can beat the Negaverse for good!" Rini said to her happily.

"you know what? You right! We can train here and become stronger, stronger than the other sailor scouts will ever be, and we will defeat the Black Moon ourselves!"

"That's it mom! And when that's all over, you and daddy can make up and become king and queen and have me and we'll live happily ever after!"

"I wouldn't go that ahead Rini. I don't see that happening any time soon."

"your right mom, well I'm going to bed." She said in a somber tone, "well what about dinner?" Serena said to her.

I'm not that hungry, good night love you mom,"

"Love you too Rini." And with that said Rini went off to sleep while Serena tried to eat what she could of the pie.

Rini is right, I can become stronger and defeat all the wrongdoers here in London to improve myself and one day, oh one day I will show the rest of the sailor scouts how powerful I truly can be.
