Smily: People over in JAPAN do. Ignore her, she's high.

K2: ENJOY!!!!!!!

Andrew looked up at the sound of the bell ringing. His eyes lit up at seeing Mina and the other scouts. (A.N. hehe, methinks he likes a certain blonde.) The 8 women and one man slowly walked over to their booth, and tiredly sat down. Andrew frowned, this was not the normal group of warriors that he knew. (A.N. Andrew knows who they are.) His frown deepened when he noticed that Serena was not with them. Picking up a pad and pen, he went over to them.

"Hey, what's up? Wait, first, tell me your orders, then tell me, kay?" Upon seeing their nods, he asked for their orders. " O.K. One coke for Ray, one diet coke for Mina, one coffee for Darien, two teas for Haruka and Michelle, one latte for Setsuna, one fudge sundae for Hotaru, one Dr. Pepper for Lita, and one Sprite for Amy. Coming right up." With that he turned and left. When he was at the counter, Mina turned to the others.

"What are we going to do? Andrew loves Serena like a sister, he'll be furious. But, he'll be even more furious if we lied. I don't like an angry Andrew." The other's nodded, and Setsuna answered.

"We'll have to tell the truth. He's not our main concern, but her family. Remember, her uncles are…."

"Here you go." Startled, they looked up at Andrew, fear laced across their faces. Andrew frowned, he definitely knew something was up. Sitting down, his face grew hard. Darien gulped, he knew that face, he wasn't getting out of an explanation today.

"Spill. Now. Or no. More. Tips." Everybody gulped. Andrew was their main man for tips against the enemy. For some reason, he knew everything going on, and gave them useful info. Looking down at the table, they started explaning. Andrew's eyes were getting flintier by the minute. Mina was nervous, never had she seen Andrew get this mad, not even back in the Silver Millennium. Andrew opened his mouth to say something, but was cut off by a cry from Hotaru. Everyone turned to the delicate scout of Saturn, to see her clutching her head. When she lifted her head back up, her eyes were blank and Saturn's symbol shown on her forehead. Everyone shuddered, this was not Hotaru, but the Princess of Saturn, Sailor Saturn, Scout of Death and Rebirth before them.

"Trust not what your eyes see,

trust what your heart knows.

The Light dims, a false betrayal.

Darkness draws nigh, threatening.

The day is close, closer than you think.

The unborn child holds the key."

Unless the Golden Prince

Unites with the Earth,

All will be lost.

Hotaru gasped and slumped forward.

"Hotaru!" Michelle exclaimed, startling the few customers in there besides them. Hotaru looked up slightly startled, unsure of what just happened. "Are you okay, Sweety?"

"Y-yes. What just happened? Why did I say that?" The small girl trembled slightly and Amara gripped her gently, but firmly on the shoulder.

"Not sure, honey, but it must be important. Did any of you bother to catch that?"

"I remember every thing." Amy murmured, "Let me type it down." She got out her laptop and started typing, "It seems to be some sort of riddle. It may lead to Serena's safe return." Amy stopped suddenly and looked up slowly. The others were looking at her shocked, then, they all turned to look at Andrew.

He blinked a few times, then slowly asked,

"What did you say? It's funny, because I thought I heard you say the words, 'Serena's safe return' and I don't think that sounds right."

Darien cleared his throat, "Well, actually….yes. She's…missing."

"What!? What happened? Where is she?"

"Calm down Andrew! We don't know what happened, nor do we know where she is! That's why we're…looking!"

"Well, what are you doing wasting time here? Go find her!"

"We can't!" Darien shouted, irritated with his friend's attitude, "There are NO clues! We have to tell her parents as it IS! They aren't home right now, so we came here! I don't like this anymore than you, but YOU'RE the one who has CONTACT with central comMAND, so why didn't YOU know anything about THIS? HUH? Tell, me that! I want to find her more then ANYTHING, Andrew! I would be out there looking for her right now if I could, but I CAN'T! OK? I CAN'T! Not after all she has done for me! I can't do this simple thing and FIND her!" Darien had risen from his seat and was looking down angrily at his best friend. Everyone was looking at him shocked. He had never been like this before. Always calm and collected, always having a cool head. When she was kidnapped by Diamond, he was just that. Calm. Determined. But this time was different. He didn't know where she was, weather or not she was all right, who was with her, or what there intentions were. Every possible scenario played around his mind, constantly, and he tried desperately to throw those thoughts away. Suddenly, he noticed the way everyone was looking at him and he flushed deeply, realizing he lost control of his emotions. He sat down and took a sip of his drink. Andrew recovered from his shock and looked apologetically at his best friend.

"I'm sorry Darien. I forgot for a minute how much harder this must be on you then us, but you do know, I know how you feel right now." Darien looked at Andrew, and saw the same pain just then, one that Darien had felt on several occasions, and remembered a year past. Andrew had received a letter in the mail saying his girlfriend had died of an illness in another country. Then Mina was placing her hand on Andrew's arm. He smiled at her and she blushed a little. "All right." Andrew said standing up, "I get the picture. Is this all you want, or do you want something to eat also?"

"No, we're fine for now." Setsuna murmured

"Okay. Oh, Darien. I heard Serena's brother was coming back into town. I think you know what that means." Darien groaned and rubbed his face in his hand.

"What?" Ray asked, "Serena's bother?"

"Her adopted brother." Darien murmured, "Ikuko took up the notion that Serena needed an older brother. He doesn't live there permanently. He has a home somewhere else. And let me tell you, he is a major pain in the butt sometimes. He knows it, and enjoys it."

"Yeah, and he hangs around Darien sometimes. In fact, I think that is why Darien had this little outburst. His chiperness has gotten you showing more emotion lately."

"Basically." Darien muttered.

"Well, I better get back to work." Andrew said standing up, "I see some customers waiting to order." Andrew stood and left the table while Darien laid his head in his arms and cursed his luck by the minute. All he needed now was for both her uncles to show up, and Beryl would like a kitten.

Smily: Well, you like?

K2: Moremoremoremoremoremoremore…..

Smily: Eh, yeah, sure. Well, anyways, review, please.

K2: Andrew knows a little too much, don't' you think?

Smily: Hush, that's obvious. Until later.
