Chapter 5 Serena, the Council and the Future Plans

Serena woke up really early in her room due to her dreams of the past. She got dressed and bumped into Sakura in the hallway.

Sakura asked, "Serena do you want to talk about something? You know I'm always here right?"

Serena answered, "I know. But I'm not ready to talk about it."

"We have a council meeting tomorrow by the way. Everyone accepted so I thought it would be best to meet as soon as possible. You remember Galaxia and Chaos right?" Serena nodded. "The destruction they caused needs to be repaired so we have to talk about that." said Sakura.

"Ok. And Sakura what are you going to do about Elliot? He seems so sad and you seem half empty." said Serena.

"Sere, I don't know. I mean this isn't just any guy. He's…… Elliot…….. I mean we're talking about the guys who's seen all my bad hair days, listened to me rant, everything. I mean we've known each other since we were 3. We're best friends, I don't want to destroy that or hurt him. But I don't want to do anything just to stay best friends either." replied Sakura.

"Sas, he's loved you since like forever. I mean it was obvious to EVERYONE. Just clear your mind and look into your heart cuz that's where the answer is. Now come on and help me get up to speed with all of the recent events." stated Serena.

"Ok then come on." replied Sakura leading on.

The next day………….

Everyone met in the Council Room. Sakura started by introducing everyone then proceeded with the meeting.

"Ok so as we know the Sailor Wars caused a lot of damage. We need to get volunteers to help out with the rebuilding. Molly and Harry why don't you start to organize it. Is there any particular planets that need extra help?" started Sakura.

"Yes, the Lyyalte System was almost completely destroyed and some of the lesser constellation planets." replied Ron.

"Ok, then we'll have you and Luna work on that. Any planets with almost no damage or needs little to no help can be organized by Daphne and Luke. Now any news on problems aside from the damage?" said Sakura.

"Yes, in the Solar System with a planet called Earth, a Prince Endymion also known as Darien, has been trying to control the Sailor Scouts and others causing major damage." stated Mike.

Serena said, "Sakura that was part of the problem. He tried to take control of the Silver Crystal as well. Helios was lucky enough to guide me here and take control of the Golden Crystal. The Inner Scouts seem to be closer with him than the Outer."

"Of course, Serena and I may be able to deal with it ourselves. Any other topics or questions? No….. Ok meeting adjourned. We'll try to meet in about a month." said Sakura.

After everyone left Sakura asked, "Sere what was that all about? Care to tell me what happened."

"Shortly after you left, I found him in the park with another girl – kissing. Well it made sense that he didn't love me now that I look back. He would be spacey and said nothing was wrong. Deep down I was worried but he said Crystal Tokyo had to exist. Rini wouldn't be born otherwise. It was hard to listen to. Then he tried to take my brooch when I found your letters. I came here now knowing that here was where I belonged." answered Serena.

"No, not really. You shall resume your royal throne as Queen of the Moon. Of course, it is your destiny. Unfortunately we have to go to Earth and sort this all out." said Sakura.

"Yeah, well aren't you going to say I told you so since you never approved over Darien?" asked Serena.

"No, everyone makes mistakes, but we need to learn, live, and be happy. And anyways it won't help anything by saying 'I told you so'. We are leaving tomorrow at 9 A.M." answered Sakura.

The next day……………

Serena and Sakura got their stuff together and teleported to Tokyo, Japan. They appeared in one of Serena's mansions. A servant girl came and showed them to their rooms. Then they went out to talk to the Outer Scouts first.
