'I have nothing to wear, nothing" groaned Serena in fustration. Her clothes from her wardrobe had been thrown into a pile on her bed as she tried to find the perfect outfit for parvati's party. So far she had no luck at all. She had no option but to call Mina, the fashion Guru of the bunch. it was about three in the morning but Mina of all people would understand her crsis. After all this was all out clothings.
How could she not understand how important this was? Serena grabbed her phone and quickly dialed Mina roomline that she had had installed only a month ago. Serena listened to the ring while she looked at her room that was now a mess and the fact that she would have to clean it soon was not something she was looking forward to at all.
"Mina I'm having a fashion crsis" said Serena.
"Right at three in the morning come on Lita call me at the twilight hours" said Mina, rather unintelligently.
"Babe its Serena and hello help needed" said Serena
"Serena come on why are you calling" yoaned Mina.
"I need help with outfit choice's for Parvati's party" said Serena.
"Okay put a pile together take some pictures and email them to me until than please let me sleep" ended Mina.
"Okay night Mina" said Serena and she quickly put the phone down and took a big breathe. Why hadn't she just had the idea before calling Mina at three in the morning. Who knew that Mina was active with ideas at the time. She sure as hell didn't.
Serena walked downstairs to grab a coke from the fridge to get her sugar levels over what had become of her life. She was eighteen. What was next for her. Sailor Moon was something she really wanted to get back to but couldn't. Since. Luna had made it clear that she was not to protect New York life Juban and let whatever happened take its course which was unusal.
They didn't let that happen in Juban. serena really did want to know why Luna was so scared of her using the crystal. She was very careful with it. Infact she could now use the crystal without transforming to sailor moon. It had happened after the battle of Glaxia. Everyday the cyrstal's power became stronger. Only she could tame it so it had made it for a great child lock incase of an accident that might accur.
Serena opened her Locket and looked into it to see the crystal shimmer as if it was begging to be used some way. Serena didn't want to defy luna's orders. She had done that alot when she had been fourteen and the situation had always gone wrong so she had learned to trust what Luna had to say, meaning it had a good intention and reason behind it all. But still looking at the crystal made her miss what she had. Serena noticed that she had been doing alot of soul searching lately, you could say. She was looking back and forth between lives that she had and what she needed to do.
Serena finished her coke and put it in the trash. Serena decided she had to go shopping. However she saw that it was getting late. It was late night shopping hours but she wasn't sure if it was a good idea. Serena took a moment to decided than she agreed with herself to go and have some fun. Serena run upstairs and changed into a pink tube top with "Moon Child" written across it. She than slipped on a little mini skirt.
Reason being was that it was easy to take it off while changing to try the clothes on that she possibly wanted to buy. Serena grabbed her black whool jacket and zipped it up half way. Serena got her flat ballet style shoes and put them on. She found them very comfortable and the fact that they were black meant they went with everything. Serena left a note for her parents, who had decided to have a romantic evening dinner at some restuarant, saying she was out shopping and she would be back around 10. Serena coached herself into walking after all crime rate was down in New York. Serena walked a few blocks but stopped when she heard the scream of man from her built in detectors that had also developed outside her transformation. She run as fast as she could. Not knowing if she would break Luna's promise or not but she had to get there to help. That she did know.
" Selling drugs on my street is not allowed" yelled Endymion as he kneed the drug dealer in the gut and he fell to the ground.
"Please, I meant no harm to you. I just needed the money, please" said the dealer, who was groaning repitively on the ground.
"Really well if you want me to spare your life than beg, beg me to spare your pathetic soul" said Endymion. His generals look half shocked half surprised at Endymion's choice of words. But the guy did need a lesson on respect so they all decided not to intervene in this.
"Please I'm begging you, I'm sorry. I am really"
"Tell me, who is your supplier"? asked Endymion more calmly much to the dealer's relief.
"Linkin. Linkin McCain."
"No surprise there, Well you tell Linkin that I will becoming after him. Go now" said Endymion and the dealer got to his feet as fast as he could and limped away.
"Or I could just tell him myself" said Endymion and he got a small knife and aimed it at the dealer than five seconds later it landed in the back of his neck, killing him instantly. The Generals quickly left Endymion to collect his knife. They didn't like the smell of a fresh kill. But before he got there he noticed a girl running toward the dealer. Endymion stopped himself from going any further to watch the scene play out. He watch the girl that he could barely see. He watched her head turn from side to side as if to check if anyone was around. She had obviously not seen him in the shadows. She removed a round circular object from somewhere on her and he barely heard her whisper "Moon cyrstal healing".
A light flashed and circled her and for the first time he saw her. She was blonde with blue eyes that seemed to hold such innocense. Her legs visible because of her short were toned and a white creamy some reason he imagined those very beautiful legs wrapped around his waist. He watched her chest heave as she closed her eyes for a moment. She was an angel, his polar-opposite. A women that was young and innocent in everyway. But the power that she was giving off and seemed to be controling the rounded shape crystal was amazingly stronge. Than the light died out. The dealer raised room his place on the grounded and looked that angel above him.
"Jimmy, you need to stop dealing and take care of your wife, get a real job. Look after the child she his carrying. The child that it yours." said the girl.
"I-I-I"
"Don't say anymore. You had luck on your side tonight. A moment more and you would have been gone. go now" she said. The dealer, Jimmy quickly got up and thanked his blessings that he was alive some how and run home to his wife and do as the pretty lady had said. For he was so scared not to. She got up from her stop on the grounded but soon fell. Taking a moment to get her strength back.
"Who are you Angel" asked a dark figure.
Serena felt the evil darkness around this person and she backed away. The healing had taken alot out of her, as it always did. But she was so out of practise for she had not done it in so long that her body was weaker than usual, she couldn't even complete a transformation. At this moment she wished she had listened to Luna. This person scared her. She felt so unsafe and she hated that.
"Why don't you tell me who you are" said Serena trying to master up some kind of strength in her voice. The figure laugh and she knew than it was man. A powerful man. She never went up against a man. Only female evil had shown up in Juban besides the weak henchman that was sometimes male.
"I am Endymion and this is my city, any activity like that such as healing someone that I killed is against my laws. So you are now mine." he said.
"You don't own me" said Serena shocked that this Endymion guy was trying to gain ownership of her, well that just wasn't going to fly.
"But I do, This is my city, my playground and my rules. You enter here you must follow them." said Endymion.
Serena continued to try crawl away form him but she jsut didn't have enough strength tp get very far. "I just healed a death man, what is so wrong by that"? asked a confused Serena. She felt his hand rubbed her cheek over again even when Serena moved her face away.
"He was my kill for the night and it was his punishment for drug dealing" said Endymion.
"He was only doing that for his family, he didn't think he could make enough money to support his family, have some compassion" said Serena. Her body than gave out and she fell completely on her back on the ground. Serena rested one hand on her stomach and the other above her head. She focused on trying to stay awake.
"I have no compassion" spat Endymion and he crawled over her. Serena turned to look up and she looked into his eyes. His dark midnight eyes. She found them so beautiful. His dark hair looked so soft and it fell into his eyes making him look like a prince. Than suddenly he leant down to meet her lips and kissed her very softly. Serena didn't know what to do at first but it sparked something inside her, something that said it was alright. She needed this. She kissed him back to her surprise.
"mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, Endy..." Serena stoped herself than. What was she doing. She remember his name now she was moaning it.
"What are you doing stop this now" said Serena.
"I will if you tell me your name" said Endymion eyeing her than brushing her blonde hair out of her eyes.
"I can't trust you." said Serena.
"What choice do you have" said Endymion and he reached down to kiss her."
"Serenity" said Serena.
"What"?
"My name is Serenity, friends call me something else but you don't have that right to call me by that name for you mean nothing to me" replied Serena softly.
"Serenity" he whispered than he proceeded to move down and kiss her neck. Serena couldn't move for she didn't have the strength to do so.
"You said you would stop" said Serena.
"I lied" said Endymion.
"Why would you lie"? asked Serena.
"Its what I do" said Endymion.
"What do you want from me"? asked Serena.
"Simply, you have the look of an innocent angel with innocent eyes. You haven't been tainted. I want to be the one to taint what is pure for it has no place in my city." said Endymion.
"My integrity annoys you"? asked Serena.
"Juban"
"What"?
"You sound sound like a Jubanian, the land that is all pure, our opposite" said Endymion.
"Your insane" yelled Serena and shock that he new her home town.
"Maybe but i will see you soon, right now is not time to take you. You are my claim now. I know now for sure, don't run for I will find you" he said and than disappeared.
"What the hell" said Serena and she gathered what strength she had left and teleported home. When she found herself on her bed she fell asleep from complete exhaustion.
Serena woke up the next morning and she still felt ou of it and her body still strained from last night. Serena got up from her bed and checked the time, It was ten o'clock and she was very late for school but Serena knew that it was not a good day to go. Her parents had both gone to work so it would be okay and a cover story wasn't needed. Serena jumped into the shower. She wasn't going to even think about last night till she was fully awake and with it which she wasn't. The shower helped relax her body some what.
Serena than continued to make her bed ( to her surprise) than go downstairs for some toast buttered she eat only one piece than she sat down and turned on an odd repeat of 'Dog the bounty hunter'. It was the episode when Baby Lyssa was thrown to the ground by a fugitive and Leland told him straight about how he felt about that. Serena than switched it off after the ending with dog staying that they would heal and it was a dangourous business but it was a risk they all had decided to take.
serena was finally ready to think about last night. She wasn't going to pull a " maybe it was only a dream" liner because she was dead sure that it happened. Endymion was his name. A tall ay over 6feet with ebony hair and midnight blue eyes that start challenged her in every way. Serena wanted to tell the girls but it would also mean she would have to reveal to Luna that she used the Crystal. She may have saved someone's life but Luna made made it clear not to use it. Serena was not going to tell any of the girls or Luna. She would have to handle this her way when she needed. This Endymion figure was just someone that played with people so find weakness but she would stay stronge.
Anyway the chances of her seeing him again are very slim. All he would have had to go on was a brief decription and a first name. Not many even knew that her name was Serenity most just new it was Serena. She than ended with that he wouldn't find her and if he did she would be very surprised. There was just no reason to worry. She wasn't going to go looking for trouble which came in this guy's form. She had issues but sshe doubted that he was a major threat to her after all she herself was stronge. Serena than got up and decided to finished that shopping she never even got to do.
Serena took her purse and left
" What happened" asked Matt
"What are you refering to"? asked Endymion in all politness.
"You are not your normal self, did something happen with the dealer. " ? pushed Matt.
"It doesn't matter, I need some information on someone" said Endymion changing the subject.
"Okay, who"? asked Matt nerviously with a stutter of a sort.
"I want you to look up females under the first name Serenity between the ages of 17 to 23 that orginated from Juban, Japan" replied Endymion.
'If this is another wild hunt for an old flame I'm not doing it. All four of us have had enough with that side of your life" spat Matt with alot of hatred that what his long time friend had become.
"Its not an ex-flame now search, I need to find this woman" declared Endymion as he raised from his sitting position behind his desk."
"Fine if its so important but would you explain why you want to find this woman so badly, its not like your lacking willing bed partners" said Matt, who still wanted to know why Endymion out of the blue wanted to find this person call Serenity.
"I will explain when you find her" said Endymion.
"Okay" said Matt who knew he wasn't going to get anywhere or find ouit anything will he found this mystery women. Matt guessed that it might have something to do with last night. It was only since than he had decided that he must find her. She must be some woman to be able to hold Endymion's attention for longer than half an hour. Matt walked ouut of the office to the lounge. Both Nathan and Jake seemed to be looking over some documents making sure that it was all complete and there was no mistakes on any of the sheets of paper.
"Endymion has a bounty for us" said Matt as he entered the room. Both Nathan and Jake looked up from the pages to look up at Matt. They set the paper down on the table and listened to Matt to find out the intell on their next target. Last night had been an easy find, hopefully this time their would be some kind of challange.
"Okay what do we have."? asked Nathan. Matt pulled the broad out infront of them and got a marker. After all this time the broad and marker was still used. Their seemed to be no other way to do it properly. "We are look for a female between the ages of 17 to 23 called Serenity. She originates from Juban, japan but we believe she is currently living in this city." said Matt and he wrote up all the information on the broad. Both Jake and Nathan frowned. It was one of those low information cases they had to go on. They had a challange.
"What was the crime"? asked Nathan.
"Using a power source to heal one of our kills" said Enymion and he entered the room.
'Really and when was this"? asked Jake
"Last night, the dealer we killed, she healed with a power source. I'm not sure what it was but we need to find out why she is here, what she was doing and if she is a threat" said Endymion.
"So this isn't a straight kill, its a collect and capture" confirming Nathan.
"Yes, I have some plans for her." said Endymion.
"Does this involve you, her and a bed"? chuckled Nathan.
"Maybe. " smirked Endymion.
"Do we have a discription"? asked Matt.
"Yes, Height between 5'3 to 5'5. Blonde hair, blue eyes. " said Endymion.
"Is there a hunt' asked Zac as he entered the room.
"Yep" smiled Nathan as he looked at the challange they had. Zac quickly briefed him with what was written on the broad.
"What kind of power source are we talking. She could be dangarous." ?
"We don't know yet but it was a natural power source, I'm guessing that either only she can use it or if anyone else does try it would make it incrediably hard." replied Endymion.
"Does it only have the power to heal or if it broader" inquired Zac.
"Can't say for sure but most likely it can do more." said Endymion.
"This is gonna be tough" said Jake.
"Should Artimus be on this one with us. He might know something about this power source you mentioned"? questioned Nathan.
"I think so, this is his fortay, power" smirked Endymion.
"Okay so you said you would tell us why you want this women but for you to give this much of a reason as so way we need to find her, it must mean that there is somehing else"? asked Matt looking at Endymion.
"Like I said, I will tell you when we catch her" replied Endymion
