Chapter 2: Back in Tokyo
Serena had managed to catch the early 9 o'clock plane. It would take about an hour to get there. No one knew what she was going to do. All her family knew was that she was going back to Tokyo because she missed it and was going to set up another office of her fathers. They were called Moon Tsukinos Inc. They were already a big success. Serena pulled out an old photograph and looked at the images. Her voice was soft. "You'll pay for betraying me. I promise." Serena checked her reflection in the mirror and for a moment saw the scraggly plain dirty little girl she had once been. Then she saw her own reflection. This was one of perfection. Her skin was milky white and there were no flaws to be seen. Her silver blonde hair shone with an inner radiance. Her eyes were no longer dull blue. They sparkled bright blue hat almost looked silver. In all other words, she was every guys dream come true. Although it didn't explain only having two boyfriends. Serena smiled bitterly. She would make them remember all the things that they did to her. All without knowing who she really was. Serena soon fell into a light sleep, her hands resting limply in her lap. A small sad smile covered her lips.
Once the plane landed, Serena was up and raring to go. She needed to get settled first and reacquaint with all her old joints. She called for a taxi and had them drive to her old house. Her parents had given her the key to it and she would live there for sometime. Serena pulled her things out and gazed up at the house. It had been left alone for 11 years. The grass was overgrown and no doubt the inside would be a complete mess. Serena knew her things would be delivered here in the next few days and she needed to get it cleaned up. She carried her suitcases and small backpack that substituted as a purse up the steps and opened the door. The inside surprised her. It was spotless. The floors shone, the redwood glittering, and everything seemed so clean. Serena saw a white envelope on the mantle of the fireplace and set her things down. She opened it and began reading.
Dear Moon
I know you said you didn't want our help but how could we not give it to you. I know you'll be mad because of the house but hear us out. I can only guess that the reason you're back in Tokyo is because of some unfinished business. You always said no when I asked if you wanted to come back when you were younger. You're stuff should be arriving sometime today. Your mother and I are worried about you. Tranquility has kept asking where you went. I can tell that the young man is worried about you. For a while now you've been avoiding him. Well Moon, I had the house cleaned but I left the yard. I know how much you like gardening. Everything's in the back shed. We love you and don't want anything bad to happen. I hope you call soon.
Love Daddy
Serena smiled in spite of herself. Her parents had given her and Sammy everything they could give. Serena tucked the letter in her back pocket and went up to her old room. She set her stuff by the closet and turned to open the balcony doors. It was sunny. Yesterday had been miserable but today was stunning. A giant rainbow stretched across the sky and rain drops glistened on everything. She then decided to go out. It was too beautiful a day to unpack. She wrote a note to the movers who would probably bring her stuff and tacked it to the door telling them to put the stuff out back for now. Then she quickly ran a brush through her hair and pulled on a white sundress with gold edges. She then grabbed her purse and proceeded out the door, locking it. She checked the garage and found a small silver convertible. Smiling, she pulled her sunglasses out and hopped in. She took off with a smile at seeing all the old sites.
Serena first went to the beach. It was packed full today so Serena just drove through it. It was still beautiful. Then she began driving the streets of Tokyo. Her childhood had been here in these streets. She stopped at the park, which was nearby the arcade, and got out. She heard a few whistles and saw a few teenage boys walk on by. Serena tilted her chin up and began walking, ignoring them. If they tried anything, her Judo training would help her out. Lucky for her, they kept walking. Serena went to the center where a large fountain was. It was a statue an eagle getting ready to take flight as water trickled over the rock it was on. Serena smiled whimsically, wishing she could be that eagle. Free to forget her past and free to forget her mistakes. Serena trailed her hand in the water. She heard the whispering around her. Everyone always talked about her. Travis's reason was because she stunningly beautiful. Of course he had also said that her beauty shone out from the inside. Serena sighed and fought not to admit that she missed Travis. He had been kind to her. He had always been there for her when she needed someone. He was her first lover. Serena stood, disgusted with herself of even thinking of Travis. He was a part of a past that she didn't want. She had come to get away from him. Serena began walking back to her car. As she walked, she saw a group that seemed familiar. She stopped instantly, floored. They had grown up as well. The girls were beautiful! Serena had to admit that they had turned into beauties. Her attention turned to the guys. They were a lot more handsome. Darien, Seiya, Yaten, and Andrew had become hunks. She grinned mysteviously. Checking her appearance real quick and liking what she saw, she put on an innocent face and walked toward them.
Serena watched the surprise, suspicion, and shock cross all their faces. She purposely looked at Darien. "I was wondering perhaps if you can help me. I'm looking for the Crown Arcade. I'm supposed to meet someone there. I'm kind of new around here." Darien began to stammer. Serena fought down her smirk. Rei stepped between her and Darien. The other girls pushed their men behind them as well. Rei smiled and offered her hand. "You sound as if you're from London." "I am. My name is Serenity Lunar." Rei's eyes widened along with the other girls. The guys looked at them in confusion. Rei smiled and shook Serena's hand enthusiastically. "You are my idol Miss Lunar. Why are you here in Tokyo?" Serena allowed a laugh to escape. She kept an eye on the guys to make sure they were looking her over. They were. Serena smiled and thought, 'You can look but you can't touch.' "I came to add onto Moon Tsukino Inc. And I don't have much time. Can you tell me where the arcade is because I know that you would rather be doing something else." Rei gave her directions. Serena smiled. "Thank you. I hope you and your friends have fun." As Serena walked away, she heard Darien ask, "Who was that?" Rei answered. "She's Serenity Lunar, one of the youngest and hardcore lawyers ever. She was also born into a rich family. She lives in the country with the owners of Moon Tsukino Inc. She has two of the most eligible bachelors in the world after her. One is Diamond Demando. The other is Prince Tranquility, the next heir to the London throne. Although people say that he gave up his title." Serena didn't hear anymore because she had walked too far away. Serena sighed sadly. Yes Travis had given up his right to rule. All because of her. He had said his brothers could take over. At the time, he and Serena had been dating. Serena squared her shoulders and walked quickly to her car. That had been a very interesting encounter. She briefly wondered what the others would be like. Serena climbed in her car and turned toward home. She would check out the arcade tomorrow. Right now she had to get home and unpack.
As Serena pulled into the driveway, she saw that the movers had come and gone. They had done as she had requested. Serena smiled and parked. Then she went to the back yard. She stared at all her furniture and wondered how she was going to get the stuff in. At that moment, she heard someone out front. She called out absently. "Back here!" It was to her surprise that she saw Travis. She blushed and checked her hair. He laughed. "Oh come now Sere. I've seen you with your hair messed up. I like it whether it's messed up or not." Serena bit her lip in agitation. "What are you doing here Travis?" Her voice was soft. "What no hi?" Travis was smiling. At Serena's determined gaze, he sighed. "Okay then. When I found out that you had left, I went straight to your father. Don't worry, he didn't tell me where you were. He only told me that you had unfinished business. I remembered you telling me about your friends here and I guessed you had come back here. I got the old address and here I am. Why didn't you tell me?" His eyes were searching. Serena fought down the urge to fling herself in his arms. "I needed time Travis. I mean you asked me to marry you for heavens sake. What was I supposed to do? Rush into your arms and say yes. You should know me better than that." Travis looked around. "Then I have a proposal. I'll help out with whatever you want and we go back to being friends. Maybe even lovers?" Serena eyed him and saw he was speaking honestly. She smiled. "Deal." Travis smiled mysteviously. Then we ought to seal it." Before Serena could protest, he pulled her to him and kissed her. Serena wrapped her arms around him and opened her lips to him. When he finally pulled back, she was breathless. He tweaked her nose with a smile. "Now let's get this stuff inside." Serena smiled with a nod.
Okay folks, that's it for now, I hope you like it. Please R&R. Don't be afraid to flame me, it will make my story better. Ja Ne.
