Chapter Seven
The Plan and the Peeved
The vortex was spinning and spinning Serena had to close her eyes to stop her swimming eyes. Light was at the end of the tunnel and Serena reached for it, but.....
Serena* saw Serena pass out and tried to call out for her, but her voice was lost. Then she landed hard on top of someone.
"Geez, Sailor Moon, get off me!" a familiar voice belonging to Mars. But this voice sounded a bit strange. It sounded almost......older.
"Huh?" Sailor Moon* lifted her self off of Mars and shook her head, trying to clear her boggled mind. She was Mars alright, but she was an older Mars. Her scout uniform was different from her Mars, the bow tails in the back were longer, and she had lipstick on! The Mars she knew didn't wear lipstick.
"Ooof! My present self needs to go on a diet." Said Another Sailor Venus.
"Who-where, are we?" Sailor Moon* asked gazing around the place they landed. It was dark and misty. Was this the gates of time Sailor Pluto stayed at?
"Welcome, I hope you didn't hurt your self." Said a soothing voice. Sailor Moon* looked up to see a slender woman with sliver-blonde hair and blue eyes. She had a gold tiara in with some sort of heart shaped ruby gem on it.
There were collective moans from Sailor Moon*'s party and she turned and saw them wake up. Every one woke up except the present scouts and the present Prince Darien and his guards.
"Ouch, that hurt." Complained Venus* and rubber her sore butt.
"Sorry about that landing." Said the queen like stranger.
"Who are you?" Sailor Moon* asked her. She simply smiled.
"You are the past, while she is the present, and I am the future." She said motioning to the unconscious Sailor Moon.
"So you are Moon Princess of the future." Sailor Moon* asked dazed and confused. (AN: remember those shirts?)
"She's not a princess any longer." The future Venus said with a giggle.
"She's Neo Queen Serenity, and he," The future Mercury said pointing to the tall man next to her, "Is her husband, King of the Earth, Darien."
Darien* looked at the man, who was himself in the far future. The King stared back coolly at his younger self. He looked old! Darien* thought, and had the king smiling.
"Not that old!" The king said.
"What's this all about? Why do we keep on jumping from time frame to time frame?" Mars* demanded staring at the FUTURE scouts and the queen and king.
"We need your help." The future Jupiter said
"Doing what?" Sailor Moon* asked wondering where Sailor Pluto was.
"Our time is very shifty. You see, the present Serena and Darien's dislike for each other is making our reality waver. We need your help in getting them together." The King said.
"Easier said then done. They're both stubborn." Mars* snorted.
"We know. That is why we devised a plan on getting them together. You have just barley became lovers, yes?" Neo Queen Serenity asked.
There were collective nods. "Well, our Sailor Venus brewed a potion and released it on the Present Scouts. But we need to do a senses link to bind you to them. That way, what ever you feel, or what ever you do, can affect them. It'll be like it's happening to them. They already feel a little something for each other, so it'll only be time before they start yielding to their feelings."
"Are you sure this will work?" Sailor Moon* asked her future self.
"Yes. Once they submit to each other, will you be able to go home to your time."
Sailor Moon* hesitated. She knew what waited for them in their time. But they were ready to face this, Queen Beryl right?
*The experience will only make you stronger Serena.* Said Neo Queen Serenity with a smile.
"You guys up for our task?" Sailor Moon* asked her party. All nine of them nodded and gathered up their unconscious present selves.
"Venus, the potion please." Neo Queen Serenity said. The future Venus stepped forward with a glass bottle filled with something light blue. She popped off the top and a blue vapor escaped and absorbed into the past and present scouts.
They all felt a queer feeling and then it was gone.
"Go, your mission awaits you." Neo Queen Serenity opened the vortex and the past and present scouts were gone.
~ ~ ~ ~
Serena woke up with a throbbing headache. "Wh-what happened?" She moaned and struggled up.
"You shouldn't get up just yet." Said Serena* and placed a cold washcloth on her face.
"What happened? What about the vortex?" She was back in her room.
Serena* shrugged. "A dead end. But the good thing is Ami found a way for us to go home."
"Really? How?" Serena asked.
"There is to be a shadowed moon coming soon. She tapped into the essence and found a time window. We're going to use the Sailor Teleport and return home."
"How long before the shadowed moon comes?" She asked with a frown.
Serena* frowned. "That's the thing. It will come in two weeks."
"Two weeks!" She gaped.
"Yes, but don't worry. My Darien talked to your Darien and he has decided to let us stay in his spare bedroom."
"He's not my Darien." Serena grumbled and looked around her room. "My mom didn't see you come up here right?"
"No one was here. My Ami said that if we were to stay here, we needed to get some new clothes. She found a distant store-oh-but it was called or something else, a mall, or something. Anyways, we think we should go there. No one would know us there. It's the perfect place to go shopping. My Darien all ready convinced your-uh I mean, the other Darien to take us. His royal guards are taking their doubles and their partners. We'll be leaving in a couple of minutes, so hurry and change."
Why does she want to go shopping? Serena was willing to share her clothes with her past self. Something was up, but Serena didn't know just yet. I better keep an eye on her. If I know myself, (which I do) then she is up to something I won't like.
Both Serenas dressed and heard a honk outside. "They're here! Come on Serena, don't sulk!" Serena* pulled Serena down stairs. Serena went down the stairs, taking as much time as she pleased.
"Darien!" Serena* launched her self into Darien*'s arms and kissed. Serena froze when they touched lips. She felt all her sensed swim with Serena*'s senses. Warm lips pressed against hers. She felt her heart soar with happiness and love. She staggered. Why am I feeling this love? The sense was so overwhelming. She felt safe, and needed, and loved.
"Stop!" She managed to choke out, not wanting to feel all this......stuff.
"What's wrong?" Serena* asked innocently stepping away from him.
"Nothing, we just need to go before it gets too late. My parents are going to be home soon." She said hastily. She wanted to talk to Ami about this.
"Well let's go then!" Serena* said with enthusiasm.
~ ~ ~ ~
Darien was glad he waited in the car, because, he didn't want to see himself kiss Serena. Even more so, when the other Darien and Serena kissed, he felt overwhelmed by the sensation of actually kissing Serena. He felt his heart about to burst with overwhelming feelings of want, need, and not the sexual kind, the emotional kind. Serena seemed like a firm handle on life. Someone constant. Some one he would die for.
His passenger door opened, and Serena closed the door, grumbling about loosing her mind or something.
"Ready meatball head? Are you sure you have enough money? You didn't spend it all at the arcade did you?" His voice was surprisingly smooth despite the turmoil he was feeling inside.
"Oh shut up and drive you moron. I just want to get this done and over with." She snapped. Why must he always tease me, the stupid, idiotic, mean hearted.........Serena* and Darien* climbed in the back.
Darien felt small invisible hands run down his stomach and felt invisible warm breaths close to his ear. Startled, he turned to Serena who seemed to be trying to brush something off her leg.
He glanced in the rearview mirror to see Darien*'s hand on Serena*'s leg. Darien narrowed his eyes. Serena* was rubbing her hands up and down Darien*'s stomach and whispering something in his ear.
They were LINKED! Oh, shit!
"No!" Serena whispered. She must have come to the same conclusion.
"Are we going or not?" Darien* asked looking at them expectantly. Darien started his car and pulled on to the road.
The drive to the mall was long and very, very, uncomfortable. Serena had to take deep breath over and over in order to calm her raging blood and hormones. She fought the fondness, and the affectionate feelings the two in the back was sharing. She kept casting quick glances at Darien. He seemed to be fighting it as well. There were a couple of times when her jerked the wheel hard or made a bad stop, but Serena didn't say anything. It must be hard to concentrate on the road and fight the sensations the two in the back were giving them.
They finally made at, and Serena tried to get away from the love birds. "This sucks." She muttered to herself and met up with her inner scouts, who looked pale and had a strange look of despair and anger in their eyes.
"What the hell is happening to us?" Raye exploded when she was closer.
"How should I know? This has to stop. Even now, I can feel Darien touching me." She jumped when an invisible force patted her butt. Serena turned to see her past self laughing up at the past Darien and give him a kiss. She closed her eyes, fighting the feeling.
"Come on guys! Let's go!" Mina* called out to them, skipping along Kunzite*, hand in hand.
"Damn." Mina whispered.
"Let's go." Serena said and they all went into the mall.
"You take your twin, and I'll take mine. If they're apart from each other....." Serena told them when an invisible finger poked her side. This has to stop.
"Great idea Serena, your brain is working today." Raye said and avoided Serena's swipe.
"How about we help you pick out some clothes. You guys can do what even MANLY shopping guys do." Lita said and linked arms with her twin. "We'll be back in a while." She called out to the past and present guards, who stood dumbfounded at the retreating figures of the ten girls.
"Bye lover! I'll buy something really special for tonight." Raye* called out to Jadeite* and blew him a kiss and a saucy wink. Raye groaned. Gross.
There were collective looks from the other people in the mall as the group of ten girls, all twins went from store to store.
"Oh look at that store!" Mina* squealed and pointed to a Victoria's Secret.
"Oh no!" Ami moaned and was dragged in by Ami*.
"Wow! I never seen a store like this before! Oh look at this! Kunzite would just go crazy if he saw me wear this!" Mina* said grasping a silk nightie.
"Look at this one! Oh I just love the color!" Raye* said and took a red lacy thing off the rack and held it up to her in the mirror.
"There's a dressing room off to the corner miss if you would like to try it on." A sales clerk said. All of the past scouts picked out an outfit or another and ran to the dressing room.
"Oh man! We didn't even think about tonight!" Ami whispered to the present scouts as she watched her past self close the dressing door behind her.
"How are we going to handle them together in bed? I can't even handle their kissing!" Lita said aghast.
"We have to do something! I can't even imagine myself with HIM! All these feelings, they are so in love with each other." Serena said.
"Can't we do something Ami?" Raye asked the blue haired girl.
Ami looked around to make sure no one saw her, and pulled out her computer. There was clicking and binging. She frowned and then sighed. "We can't do anything! We just have to build up our defenses."
"That's going to be hard considering they're all over each other all the time. I can't believe I was such a wanton!" Lita said thoroughly disgusted with herself. Me and that jerk Nephrite? How can they love each other so much? But deep inside Lita longed for that feeling. She went through so many boyfriends, trying to find THE ONE. But each of them was a dead end. But when she met the good Nephrite, she couldn't deny that she felt a connection to him. Something about him made her feel safe in his presence. It made her feel like the protected instead of the protector.
"What are you guys doing in THAT store?" Came a gruff voice. They all turned around to see all ten of the guys.
"Well...." Serena hesitated, embarrassed.
"How does this look on me?" Said another voice coming from the dressing rooms. Serena* stepped out, and soon after, the others did too.
"Wow! I look so good!" Lita* said and gazed at herself in the full length mirror, twisting and turning.
"Does this color suit me?" Ami* asked running a hand down her shimmering blue silk nightgown.
"Uh huh, it goes with your eyes Ames. How about me?" Raye* asked striking a pose. There were peals of giggling.
Serena stared in shock at her past self in the white, lace nightie. Everything about her was identical to her own self. Well duh, she is you. But she didn't know she looked so damn appealing.
"Hey, can you help me with this tie? I can't seem to...." Lita* said trying to grasp the tie behind her back.
"Let me." Said a husky voice from behind her. She gasped and then smiled when Nephrite* came to her aid. Lita stiffened when she felt warm hands brush her back. Oh stop! Please! She silently wailed.
Serena was helpless to do anything about the scene before her. Poor Lita.
"Well, Raye, I think that this one will do. But I'm afraid you won't be wearing it long." Jadeite* said strolling over to Raye*. She arched a brow.
"Oh really?"
"Uh huh." He said seductively, a wicked gleam in his eyes. He ran a hand across her small stomach, grinning when he felt her contract under his touch.
"Stop!" Don't touch her!" Raye yelled and pushed her past self away from Jadeite*. She glared at him.
"Don't think we don't know what you're doing. How did you link us to you?" Serena demanded. All the past people looked wide-eyed and then they all smiled smugly.
"The link only works when you're attracted to one another. It wouldn't work other wise." Darien* stated.
He was met with ten fiery glares. "How do you break it?" Darien demanded.
"You can't until we leave." Was his response.
"I think we need a change of plans about the sleeping arrangement." Ami said.
"Right, I think its best if the present guards keep the past guards. Raye, there's enough room at your temple to house your past self. Ami, isn't you mom going away to some kind of convention? Good, we have some where for the past Ami to sleep. Lita, since you live alone, you can keep your past self." Serena said.
"That leaves me and you Serena. What about our arrangements? Yours and my parents aren't going anywhere." Mina said.
"I can keep one more person." Lita said.
Serena and Mina stared at each other. Serena saw the pleading look Mina gave her and sighed. "Fine Mina, your twin can stay at Lita's."
"Oh thank you, thank you!" She squealed.
"Uh, what about us?" Darien asked Serena.
She gazed at her past self who simply smiled, knowing that she didn't have a place for her. I'm the leader, surely I can handle the feelings they're giving off, right?
"Looks like our arrangements at Darien's still stands." Darien* said.
Serena and Darien locked gazes, and relayed silent messages, that it was true.
"But that's not fair! How come they get to stay together?" Mina* whined.
"Yeah!" Raye* agreed and clung to Jadeite*'s arm. Raye abruptly pulled her away from him. Jadeite* just smiled.
"Come love, you know we can see each other later. Maybe, well even sneak out." Kunzite* said the last part to Mina* in a whisper.
She lightened and then kissed him. "Until then, well wreak havoc on their hormones and their emotions." She whispered back and gave him a passionate kiss.
"Uh, stop!" Kunzite said and pulled his past self away from Mina*.
"Come on, let's finish shopping. I'm getting hungry." Serena said.
"Me too!" Serena* piped in. There were collective groans.
"Somethings never change." Raye muttered and placed herself between her past self and past lover.
They finished and then went to a restaurant. They had to pull three long tables together for all of them. Both Serena's almost ordered everything off the menu. Maybe it was a bad idea to sit across from them. Darien thought as an invisible bare foot rubbed up his leg. He had to grit he teeth.
Afterwards, they all left to sleep. Serena was holding on to her past self, restraining her from crawling all over Darien*.
"Might as well let me go Serena, you have to leave soon, and then you can't stop us." She smirked. Serena wanted to slap her. The two love birds were in each other's arms as soon as the door was pushed open.
Serena and Darien steeled themselves from the swamp of sensations. "We have to be strong. I hope you can handle them." Serena told him.
"Yeah, right, easier said then done Meatball Head." His eyes were a bit feverish. Serena felt the pull and found herself stepping closer. Just one kiss....one kiss. Just one night wrapped in warm arms, one night of feeling loved....their faces inched closer, she felt his warm breath caress her cheek.....then there was a giggle and it broke their trance
Serena gasped and widened her eyes. They almost kissed! "I have to go. See you tomorrow after school." She waved at him and ran down the hall to the elevator.
~ ~ ~ ~
That night, Serena* and Darien* waited until they knew their present selves we fast asleep.
"Time to start my love." She whispered to Darien.
"This is the best part of the mission." He whispered back and pulled him towards her.
~ ~ ~ ~
Serena was dreaming, she had to be. But in a dream, you were able to dream what you wanted. She was helpless to stop herself from undressing in front of Darien.
It was THEM! Her past self doing this, she knew it. There were kisses and velvet touches.
"Mmmm." There was a low purr from her.
"You like that my love?"
"Mmm, please Darien....."
He shushed her with a heated kiss and his hand cupped one of her breast, peaking her nipple. Serena arched up and plunged her hands into his silky mass of dark hair. She raised her legs, cradling him between them. He took the hint and plunged into her waiting wetness.
"Ahhh." She let out a hoarse moan and began moving with him, meeting him thrust for thrust. Their bodies heated and his thrusts became more persistent. The soft bed was dipping and squeaking. The headboard banged lightly against the wall. Muffled cries and grunts filled the hot room.
Serena felt her self climaxing, urging him faster and harder, wanting her release. Then it came. She shouted when it hit her. A million sizzling sensations washed over her, and then she felt Darien pulse with in her and he thrusted into her one last time and spilled his seed into her welcoming body.
They caught their breaths and then started all over again.
~ ~ ~ ~
Darien groaned when they began again. This time she was on top and was teasing him mercilessly. She rocked back and forth in an excruciating slow rhythm. He felt himself grasp her hips and urged her to a faster pace. She laughed and followed his lead. Her long golden hair ticked his chest. His hands moved from her hips to her swaying breast. Her pink nipples hardened at his touch. She was getting restless and began moving faster. Slick flesh met up with slick flesh. She tightened her inner muscles and rocked harder. Small pants were close to his ear, making him want her more, and he urged her on, wanting to find his own release.
Her climax hit her and she threw her head back, her crescent moon shining brightly in the dim room. He felt himself caught in her brilliant release and he let go. Afterwards, the fires of their passion died down and they slept.
Darien woke up sweating. Did that just happen? He threw off his sheets and saw his naked body. How did that happen, I was wearing my boxers not to long ago. It was just a dream right? Please, please let it have been just a dream. He padded to the bathroom and turned on the water. I have to wash her off of me.........
~ ~ ~ ~
Serena awoke with a start. Her body pulsed with the aftermath. She glanced down at herself and gasped. She was naked!
She tried to blink away her nudity, but it was there. She leapt out of bed, wincing at muscles she never knew she had, and ran to the shower.
The water shot hot water down her back. She scrubbed her body, wanting Darien's scent off of her. She sat on the stool in the shower and began washing the insides of her legs scrubbing off the dried seamen. It was just a stupid dream! How can this be here?! She scrubbed harder until her whole body was pink. When the water began to turn cold, she stepped out and slipped into her waiting robe.
Dawn was approaching fast and she had to go to school soon. Damn them! How could they link them! She was so tired, and THEY get to sleep in.
~ ~ ~ ~
Serena leaned sleepily on her desk as her teacher's voice droned on and on. Her eyes felt heavy and then she was falling into unconsciousness.
No! Not now! She wailed when she landed on a soft bed in her dream, currently in the middle of intimate affairs.
Don't they get enough of each other? And in the freakin' park hidden in bushes! Have they no shame?! She struggled to wake.
"Serena!" Came the voice of her teacher.
Serena was so glad she was caught sleeping and woke up with a smile.
YOU HAVE TO FIGHT THESE FEELINGS. Ami passed a note to Serena, her eyes weary from last night to.
TOUGH NIGHT TOO? She wrote back.
Ami sighed and wrote back. WE HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO STOP THIS. I WAS UP ALL NIGHT! I STILL DON'T KNOW HOW SHE GOT OUT, OR WHERE THEY EVEN WERE!
I HOPE THE OTHERS ARE FARING BETTER THEN US. WE SHOULD MEET AT RAYE'S TEMPLE TONIGHT. MAYBE OUR PAST SELVES CAN DO SOMETHING WITHOUT US. IT SEEMS THE MORE WE'RE APART, THE LESS OF THE EFFECTS WE HAVE. DISTANCE IS A GOOD THING. I CAN VAGUELY FEEL THEM...YOU KNOW...BUT IN THE NIGHT IT'S THE STRONGEST.
UM, WHEN YOU WOKE UP, WERE THERE....UH.....REMAINS OF THE DREAM ON YOU?
YES. I WONDERED WHAT THAT WAS. IT WAS JUST A DREAM RIGHT?
Ami didn't have time to write back because the bell rang.
"Look there's Lita and Mina." Serena said pointing to the wall lockers.
"They look pretty drained." Ami murmured, shifting her bag to her other shoulder.
"Hey guys." Serena forced a chirp. It even sounded fake to her.
"I don't like this!" Mina said, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Oh, Mina, I'm so sorry! We'll find a way to get through this." Serena said wrapping Mina in a tight hug.
~ ~ ~ ~
"I need coffee!" Darien grumbled moodily and his friend Andrew smiled and brought a stemming cup of black liquid to him.
"You look like you didn't sleep well last night you guys." Andrew observed casting glances at the five men slumping down on the counter.
"How nice for you to notice." Kunzite muttered and let the scolding liquid burn his tongue.
"Care to say why?" Andrew asked with a glint in his eyes. "Negaverse business? Or is it the fact that I saw you and your mortal enemies hand in hand at the park this morning and I must say, you all looked pleasantly relaxed, if you catch my drift." He snickered.
The five men looked up t him sharply. "What did you say?" Nephrite asked in a low tone.
Andrew was a bit taken back. "I saw you and Lita together. I can't believe you would hold out on me you guys, I mean, why didn't you tell me you all kissed and made-up?" Andrew said a little hurt.
"When did you see this?" Darien demanded.
"This morning, like around, nine or so." Andrew answered confused.
"We were all in class then." He said.
"But I was YOU! I think I would know my own friend."
The five men exchanged glances, which piped Andrew's confusion and curiosity more. "Will someone tell me what the HELL is going on?!" There were startled stares from the customers around the arcade.
"Andrew! Keep it down!" Zoicite hissed at him.
"Let's go in the back." Darien said.
Andrew grumbled something under his breath and threw his rag down on the counter. The employees lounge was comfy with a TV and brown couches, a fridge, sink, microwave and stove.
"What's going on you guys?!" Andrew asked when the door was closed.
"This is hard to explain. Do you remember the story I told you about all of us on the moon kingdom?" Darien asked. Andrew nodded.
"Well something happened and the people you saw were our past selves. Somehow they got transported here to the present. They can't leave until the Shadowed Moon comes in two weeks." Darien said in a huff.
Andrew was speechless. He was a bit taken back at first when Darien told him about what or rather, who he was. I mean it's not something that happens everyday when you find out that your best friend was Tuxedo Mask and the freakin' Prince of the Earth. It was even more of a shock to find out that Serena was Sailor Moon and a princess herself. His beloved Serena whom he saw a little sister and his best friend had been past lovers! Lovers! And then four mysterious guys showed up and Andrew recognized them as the evil Negaverse minions. But they were good! And low and behold they were Darien's royal guards from the past AND also past lovers of the Sailor Scouts. Andrew easily imagined the guards and scouts together. Something just clicked with them, but they were too stubborn to see it for themselves. And now this. Andrew let out a deep sigh. This was all so, so......weird.
"Do the girls know about this?" There were nods.
"Well, do you know why they are here?" Andrew asked.
"Well....." Zoicite began.
Three men whirled around. "What?" Darien commanded.
"I think I know why. You see, you and Serena belong together Dare, there is no way around that fact. And we all know that you both find each other attractive. For some reason, you and Serena are fighting the inevitable, but it's causing some kind of change. Since you and Serena aren't together you have actually CHANGED the timeline. I think our past selves came back to try to get you two together." Zoicite explained.
"Then why did YOUR past selves come here?" Darien demanded.
"Probably for the same thing. It seems we all play an important role in the future."
"So that's the reason they linked us to them." Kunzite said.
"What link?" Andrew asked keeping up with the events.
"They linked us to them. Everything our past selves do or feel for each other, we feel too." Darien said.
"EVERYTHING." Nephrite hinted.
Andrew suddenly caught on to why they were so exhausted and promptly busted into laughter.
"Andrew! It's not funny! I actually fell asleep in class today!" Darien protested.
"Was it that bad?" He said between muffled giggles.
"They were at it all night long!" Jadeite growled recalling his vivid dream of making love to Raye.
"What? You can't keep up with us?" Said a mocking voice behind them. They all turned around to see the present scouts standing in the doorway.
"Mina!" Serena cried aghast at her friend's question.
"How long were you standing there?" Kunzite asked glaring at them, but a faint blush crept up his cheek. Images of Mina naked in all her glory ran through his mind.
"Long enough. Look, we just came here to tell you we might have a way to block their-uh-affections." Ami said and blushed lightly catching Zoicite's heated glance. Her body as well as her poor heart seemed to awake at his presence.
"How?!" Darien asked ignoring Serena and her cute uniform. Since when did he think she looked cute in a damn school uniform? Since last night, when you got to see what was BEHIND her school uniform. He answered his own question.
"We found out that the further away we are from them, the less it affects us. So, we just have to keep our distance from them." Ami explained shifting her weight to her other foot.
"However, this can only work pretty much when we're awake. We don't know how to prevent it from happening when we're asleep. For some reason, the link works the strongest in the night, especially when the moon is out." Lita said.
There was silence. It was an unnerving and awkward to be in the same room with each other after what had transpired last night. Pictures of their dreams assaulted them. The intimate things they done together, the feel of it.........
*Stop it guys. We can't let this get to us.* Serena told them through telepathy.
*It's just so hard not to picture it.* Raye stated back.
There was a tingling sensation running down Serena's side and down her hips and around to her.....
"Hey!" She said when there was an invisible hand squeezing her butt.
"There close." Lita said and tried to brush away a strong hand off her slender waist.
Andrew watched in shock when all of them made eyes contact. He felt the link they were talking about in the air. Slowly, each of them were gaining closer ground to each other. Should I stop them? He stepped back feeling uncomfortable in the hum of the room. Well, do something Andrew. He coached himself, but then thought again. He was tired of all the fights Serena and Darien got into, as well as the scouts and the guards. Maybe what was happening to them is for the best. Who was he to get involved with fate? With a grin, he exited the room and left them to their own wills.
~ ~ ~ ~
"The plan seems to be working, however slow it might be." Serena* said sliding in a bench at the arcade. Luna told her that the other Serena would always go there after school so she and the scouts as well as the guys went to check out the place. She felt her present self nearby, trying to fight the pull the other Darien was unaware of doing. The funny thing is she wasn't the one pushing them together. This was their own doing. If only they would embrace each other she thought sorrowfully.
The Plan and the Peeved
The vortex was spinning and spinning Serena had to close her eyes to stop her swimming eyes. Light was at the end of the tunnel and Serena reached for it, but.....
Serena* saw Serena pass out and tried to call out for her, but her voice was lost. Then she landed hard on top of someone.
"Geez, Sailor Moon, get off me!" a familiar voice belonging to Mars. But this voice sounded a bit strange. It sounded almost......older.
"Huh?" Sailor Moon* lifted her self off of Mars and shook her head, trying to clear her boggled mind. She was Mars alright, but she was an older Mars. Her scout uniform was different from her Mars, the bow tails in the back were longer, and she had lipstick on! The Mars she knew didn't wear lipstick.
"Ooof! My present self needs to go on a diet." Said Another Sailor Venus.
"Who-where, are we?" Sailor Moon* asked gazing around the place they landed. It was dark and misty. Was this the gates of time Sailor Pluto stayed at?
"Welcome, I hope you didn't hurt your self." Said a soothing voice. Sailor Moon* looked up to see a slender woman with sliver-blonde hair and blue eyes. She had a gold tiara in with some sort of heart shaped ruby gem on it.
There were collective moans from Sailor Moon*'s party and she turned and saw them wake up. Every one woke up except the present scouts and the present Prince Darien and his guards.
"Ouch, that hurt." Complained Venus* and rubber her sore butt.
"Sorry about that landing." Said the queen like stranger.
"Who are you?" Sailor Moon* asked her. She simply smiled.
"You are the past, while she is the present, and I am the future." She said motioning to the unconscious Sailor Moon.
"So you are Moon Princess of the future." Sailor Moon* asked dazed and confused. (AN: remember those shirts?)
"She's not a princess any longer." The future Venus said with a giggle.
"She's Neo Queen Serenity, and he," The future Mercury said pointing to the tall man next to her, "Is her husband, King of the Earth, Darien."
Darien* looked at the man, who was himself in the far future. The King stared back coolly at his younger self. He looked old! Darien* thought, and had the king smiling.
"Not that old!" The king said.
"What's this all about? Why do we keep on jumping from time frame to time frame?" Mars* demanded staring at the FUTURE scouts and the queen and king.
"We need your help." The future Jupiter said
"Doing what?" Sailor Moon* asked wondering where Sailor Pluto was.
"Our time is very shifty. You see, the present Serena and Darien's dislike for each other is making our reality waver. We need your help in getting them together." The King said.
"Easier said then done. They're both stubborn." Mars* snorted.
"We know. That is why we devised a plan on getting them together. You have just barley became lovers, yes?" Neo Queen Serenity asked.
There were collective nods. "Well, our Sailor Venus brewed a potion and released it on the Present Scouts. But we need to do a senses link to bind you to them. That way, what ever you feel, or what ever you do, can affect them. It'll be like it's happening to them. They already feel a little something for each other, so it'll only be time before they start yielding to their feelings."
"Are you sure this will work?" Sailor Moon* asked her future self.
"Yes. Once they submit to each other, will you be able to go home to your time."
Sailor Moon* hesitated. She knew what waited for them in their time. But they were ready to face this, Queen Beryl right?
*The experience will only make you stronger Serena.* Said Neo Queen Serenity with a smile.
"You guys up for our task?" Sailor Moon* asked her party. All nine of them nodded and gathered up their unconscious present selves.
"Venus, the potion please." Neo Queen Serenity said. The future Venus stepped forward with a glass bottle filled with something light blue. She popped off the top and a blue vapor escaped and absorbed into the past and present scouts.
They all felt a queer feeling and then it was gone.
"Go, your mission awaits you." Neo Queen Serenity opened the vortex and the past and present scouts were gone.
~ ~ ~ ~
Serena woke up with a throbbing headache. "Wh-what happened?" She moaned and struggled up.
"You shouldn't get up just yet." Said Serena* and placed a cold washcloth on her face.
"What happened? What about the vortex?" She was back in her room.
Serena* shrugged. "A dead end. But the good thing is Ami found a way for us to go home."
"Really? How?" Serena asked.
"There is to be a shadowed moon coming soon. She tapped into the essence and found a time window. We're going to use the Sailor Teleport and return home."
"How long before the shadowed moon comes?" She asked with a frown.
Serena* frowned. "That's the thing. It will come in two weeks."
"Two weeks!" She gaped.
"Yes, but don't worry. My Darien talked to your Darien and he has decided to let us stay in his spare bedroom."
"He's not my Darien." Serena grumbled and looked around her room. "My mom didn't see you come up here right?"
"No one was here. My Ami said that if we were to stay here, we needed to get some new clothes. She found a distant store-oh-but it was called or something else, a mall, or something. Anyways, we think we should go there. No one would know us there. It's the perfect place to go shopping. My Darien all ready convinced your-uh I mean, the other Darien to take us. His royal guards are taking their doubles and their partners. We'll be leaving in a couple of minutes, so hurry and change."
Why does she want to go shopping? Serena was willing to share her clothes with her past self. Something was up, but Serena didn't know just yet. I better keep an eye on her. If I know myself, (which I do) then she is up to something I won't like.
Both Serenas dressed and heard a honk outside. "They're here! Come on Serena, don't sulk!" Serena* pulled Serena down stairs. Serena went down the stairs, taking as much time as she pleased.
"Darien!" Serena* launched her self into Darien*'s arms and kissed. Serena froze when they touched lips. She felt all her sensed swim with Serena*'s senses. Warm lips pressed against hers. She felt her heart soar with happiness and love. She staggered. Why am I feeling this love? The sense was so overwhelming. She felt safe, and needed, and loved.
"Stop!" She managed to choke out, not wanting to feel all this......stuff.
"What's wrong?" Serena* asked innocently stepping away from him.
"Nothing, we just need to go before it gets too late. My parents are going to be home soon." She said hastily. She wanted to talk to Ami about this.
"Well let's go then!" Serena* said with enthusiasm.
~ ~ ~ ~
Darien was glad he waited in the car, because, he didn't want to see himself kiss Serena. Even more so, when the other Darien and Serena kissed, he felt overwhelmed by the sensation of actually kissing Serena. He felt his heart about to burst with overwhelming feelings of want, need, and not the sexual kind, the emotional kind. Serena seemed like a firm handle on life. Someone constant. Some one he would die for.
His passenger door opened, and Serena closed the door, grumbling about loosing her mind or something.
"Ready meatball head? Are you sure you have enough money? You didn't spend it all at the arcade did you?" His voice was surprisingly smooth despite the turmoil he was feeling inside.
"Oh shut up and drive you moron. I just want to get this done and over with." She snapped. Why must he always tease me, the stupid, idiotic, mean hearted.........Serena* and Darien* climbed in the back.
Darien felt small invisible hands run down his stomach and felt invisible warm breaths close to his ear. Startled, he turned to Serena who seemed to be trying to brush something off her leg.
He glanced in the rearview mirror to see Darien*'s hand on Serena*'s leg. Darien narrowed his eyes. Serena* was rubbing her hands up and down Darien*'s stomach and whispering something in his ear.
They were LINKED! Oh, shit!
"No!" Serena whispered. She must have come to the same conclusion.
"Are we going or not?" Darien* asked looking at them expectantly. Darien started his car and pulled on to the road.
The drive to the mall was long and very, very, uncomfortable. Serena had to take deep breath over and over in order to calm her raging blood and hormones. She fought the fondness, and the affectionate feelings the two in the back was sharing. She kept casting quick glances at Darien. He seemed to be fighting it as well. There were a couple of times when her jerked the wheel hard or made a bad stop, but Serena didn't say anything. It must be hard to concentrate on the road and fight the sensations the two in the back were giving them.
They finally made at, and Serena tried to get away from the love birds. "This sucks." She muttered to herself and met up with her inner scouts, who looked pale and had a strange look of despair and anger in their eyes.
"What the hell is happening to us?" Raye exploded when she was closer.
"How should I know? This has to stop. Even now, I can feel Darien touching me." She jumped when an invisible force patted her butt. Serena turned to see her past self laughing up at the past Darien and give him a kiss. She closed her eyes, fighting the feeling.
"Come on guys! Let's go!" Mina* called out to them, skipping along Kunzite*, hand in hand.
"Damn." Mina whispered.
"Let's go." Serena said and they all went into the mall.
"You take your twin, and I'll take mine. If they're apart from each other....." Serena told them when an invisible finger poked her side. This has to stop.
"Great idea Serena, your brain is working today." Raye said and avoided Serena's swipe.
"How about we help you pick out some clothes. You guys can do what even MANLY shopping guys do." Lita said and linked arms with her twin. "We'll be back in a while." She called out to the past and present guards, who stood dumbfounded at the retreating figures of the ten girls.
"Bye lover! I'll buy something really special for tonight." Raye* called out to Jadeite* and blew him a kiss and a saucy wink. Raye groaned. Gross.
There were collective looks from the other people in the mall as the group of ten girls, all twins went from store to store.
"Oh look at that store!" Mina* squealed and pointed to a Victoria's Secret.
"Oh no!" Ami moaned and was dragged in by Ami*.
"Wow! I never seen a store like this before! Oh look at this! Kunzite would just go crazy if he saw me wear this!" Mina* said grasping a silk nightie.
"Look at this one! Oh I just love the color!" Raye* said and took a red lacy thing off the rack and held it up to her in the mirror.
"There's a dressing room off to the corner miss if you would like to try it on." A sales clerk said. All of the past scouts picked out an outfit or another and ran to the dressing room.
"Oh man! We didn't even think about tonight!" Ami whispered to the present scouts as she watched her past self close the dressing door behind her.
"How are we going to handle them together in bed? I can't even handle their kissing!" Lita said aghast.
"We have to do something! I can't even imagine myself with HIM! All these feelings, they are so in love with each other." Serena said.
"Can't we do something Ami?" Raye asked the blue haired girl.
Ami looked around to make sure no one saw her, and pulled out her computer. There was clicking and binging. She frowned and then sighed. "We can't do anything! We just have to build up our defenses."
"That's going to be hard considering they're all over each other all the time. I can't believe I was such a wanton!" Lita said thoroughly disgusted with herself. Me and that jerk Nephrite? How can they love each other so much? But deep inside Lita longed for that feeling. She went through so many boyfriends, trying to find THE ONE. But each of them was a dead end. But when she met the good Nephrite, she couldn't deny that she felt a connection to him. Something about him made her feel safe in his presence. It made her feel like the protected instead of the protector.
"What are you guys doing in THAT store?" Came a gruff voice. They all turned around to see all ten of the guys.
"Well...." Serena hesitated, embarrassed.
"How does this look on me?" Said another voice coming from the dressing rooms. Serena* stepped out, and soon after, the others did too.
"Wow! I look so good!" Lita* said and gazed at herself in the full length mirror, twisting and turning.
"Does this color suit me?" Ami* asked running a hand down her shimmering blue silk nightgown.
"Uh huh, it goes with your eyes Ames. How about me?" Raye* asked striking a pose. There were peals of giggling.
Serena stared in shock at her past self in the white, lace nightie. Everything about her was identical to her own self. Well duh, she is you. But she didn't know she looked so damn appealing.
"Hey, can you help me with this tie? I can't seem to...." Lita* said trying to grasp the tie behind her back.
"Let me." Said a husky voice from behind her. She gasped and then smiled when Nephrite* came to her aid. Lita stiffened when she felt warm hands brush her back. Oh stop! Please! She silently wailed.
Serena was helpless to do anything about the scene before her. Poor Lita.
"Well, Raye, I think that this one will do. But I'm afraid you won't be wearing it long." Jadeite* said strolling over to Raye*. She arched a brow.
"Oh really?"
"Uh huh." He said seductively, a wicked gleam in his eyes. He ran a hand across her small stomach, grinning when he felt her contract under his touch.
"Stop!" Don't touch her!" Raye yelled and pushed her past self away from Jadeite*. She glared at him.
"Don't think we don't know what you're doing. How did you link us to you?" Serena demanded. All the past people looked wide-eyed and then they all smiled smugly.
"The link only works when you're attracted to one another. It wouldn't work other wise." Darien* stated.
He was met with ten fiery glares. "How do you break it?" Darien demanded.
"You can't until we leave." Was his response.
"I think we need a change of plans about the sleeping arrangement." Ami said.
"Right, I think its best if the present guards keep the past guards. Raye, there's enough room at your temple to house your past self. Ami, isn't you mom going away to some kind of convention? Good, we have some where for the past Ami to sleep. Lita, since you live alone, you can keep your past self." Serena said.
"That leaves me and you Serena. What about our arrangements? Yours and my parents aren't going anywhere." Mina said.
"I can keep one more person." Lita said.
Serena and Mina stared at each other. Serena saw the pleading look Mina gave her and sighed. "Fine Mina, your twin can stay at Lita's."
"Oh thank you, thank you!" She squealed.
"Uh, what about us?" Darien asked Serena.
She gazed at her past self who simply smiled, knowing that she didn't have a place for her. I'm the leader, surely I can handle the feelings they're giving off, right?
"Looks like our arrangements at Darien's still stands." Darien* said.
Serena and Darien locked gazes, and relayed silent messages, that it was true.
"But that's not fair! How come they get to stay together?" Mina* whined.
"Yeah!" Raye* agreed and clung to Jadeite*'s arm. Raye abruptly pulled her away from him. Jadeite* just smiled.
"Come love, you know we can see each other later. Maybe, well even sneak out." Kunzite* said the last part to Mina* in a whisper.
She lightened and then kissed him. "Until then, well wreak havoc on their hormones and their emotions." She whispered back and gave him a passionate kiss.
"Uh, stop!" Kunzite said and pulled his past self away from Mina*.
"Come on, let's finish shopping. I'm getting hungry." Serena said.
"Me too!" Serena* piped in. There were collective groans.
"Somethings never change." Raye muttered and placed herself between her past self and past lover.
They finished and then went to a restaurant. They had to pull three long tables together for all of them. Both Serena's almost ordered everything off the menu. Maybe it was a bad idea to sit across from them. Darien thought as an invisible bare foot rubbed up his leg. He had to grit he teeth.
Afterwards, they all left to sleep. Serena was holding on to her past self, restraining her from crawling all over Darien*.
"Might as well let me go Serena, you have to leave soon, and then you can't stop us." She smirked. Serena wanted to slap her. The two love birds were in each other's arms as soon as the door was pushed open.
Serena and Darien steeled themselves from the swamp of sensations. "We have to be strong. I hope you can handle them." Serena told him.
"Yeah, right, easier said then done Meatball Head." His eyes were a bit feverish. Serena felt the pull and found herself stepping closer. Just one kiss....one kiss. Just one night wrapped in warm arms, one night of feeling loved....their faces inched closer, she felt his warm breath caress her cheek.....then there was a giggle and it broke their trance
Serena gasped and widened her eyes. They almost kissed! "I have to go. See you tomorrow after school." She waved at him and ran down the hall to the elevator.
~ ~ ~ ~
That night, Serena* and Darien* waited until they knew their present selves we fast asleep.
"Time to start my love." She whispered to Darien.
"This is the best part of the mission." He whispered back and pulled him towards her.
~ ~ ~ ~
Serena was dreaming, she had to be. But in a dream, you were able to dream what you wanted. She was helpless to stop herself from undressing in front of Darien.
It was THEM! Her past self doing this, she knew it. There were kisses and velvet touches.
"Mmmm." There was a low purr from her.
"You like that my love?"
"Mmm, please Darien....."
He shushed her with a heated kiss and his hand cupped one of her breast, peaking her nipple. Serena arched up and plunged her hands into his silky mass of dark hair. She raised her legs, cradling him between them. He took the hint and plunged into her waiting wetness.
"Ahhh." She let out a hoarse moan and began moving with him, meeting him thrust for thrust. Their bodies heated and his thrusts became more persistent. The soft bed was dipping and squeaking. The headboard banged lightly against the wall. Muffled cries and grunts filled the hot room.
Serena felt her self climaxing, urging him faster and harder, wanting her release. Then it came. She shouted when it hit her. A million sizzling sensations washed over her, and then she felt Darien pulse with in her and he thrusted into her one last time and spilled his seed into her welcoming body.
They caught their breaths and then started all over again.
~ ~ ~ ~
Darien groaned when they began again. This time she was on top and was teasing him mercilessly. She rocked back and forth in an excruciating slow rhythm. He felt himself grasp her hips and urged her to a faster pace. She laughed and followed his lead. Her long golden hair ticked his chest. His hands moved from her hips to her swaying breast. Her pink nipples hardened at his touch. She was getting restless and began moving faster. Slick flesh met up with slick flesh. She tightened her inner muscles and rocked harder. Small pants were close to his ear, making him want her more, and he urged her on, wanting to find his own release.
Her climax hit her and she threw her head back, her crescent moon shining brightly in the dim room. He felt himself caught in her brilliant release and he let go. Afterwards, the fires of their passion died down and they slept.
Darien woke up sweating. Did that just happen? He threw off his sheets and saw his naked body. How did that happen, I was wearing my boxers not to long ago. It was just a dream right? Please, please let it have been just a dream. He padded to the bathroom and turned on the water. I have to wash her off of me.........
~ ~ ~ ~
Serena awoke with a start. Her body pulsed with the aftermath. She glanced down at herself and gasped. She was naked!
She tried to blink away her nudity, but it was there. She leapt out of bed, wincing at muscles she never knew she had, and ran to the shower.
The water shot hot water down her back. She scrubbed her body, wanting Darien's scent off of her. She sat on the stool in the shower and began washing the insides of her legs scrubbing off the dried seamen. It was just a stupid dream! How can this be here?! She scrubbed harder until her whole body was pink. When the water began to turn cold, she stepped out and slipped into her waiting robe.
Dawn was approaching fast and she had to go to school soon. Damn them! How could they link them! She was so tired, and THEY get to sleep in.
~ ~ ~ ~
Serena leaned sleepily on her desk as her teacher's voice droned on and on. Her eyes felt heavy and then she was falling into unconsciousness.
No! Not now! She wailed when she landed on a soft bed in her dream, currently in the middle of intimate affairs.
Don't they get enough of each other? And in the freakin' park hidden in bushes! Have they no shame?! She struggled to wake.
"Serena!" Came the voice of her teacher.
Serena was so glad she was caught sleeping and woke up with a smile.
YOU HAVE TO FIGHT THESE FEELINGS. Ami passed a note to Serena, her eyes weary from last night to.
TOUGH NIGHT TOO? She wrote back.
Ami sighed and wrote back. WE HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO STOP THIS. I WAS UP ALL NIGHT! I STILL DON'T KNOW HOW SHE GOT OUT, OR WHERE THEY EVEN WERE!
I HOPE THE OTHERS ARE FARING BETTER THEN US. WE SHOULD MEET AT RAYE'S TEMPLE TONIGHT. MAYBE OUR PAST SELVES CAN DO SOMETHING WITHOUT US. IT SEEMS THE MORE WE'RE APART, THE LESS OF THE EFFECTS WE HAVE. DISTANCE IS A GOOD THING. I CAN VAGUELY FEEL THEM...YOU KNOW...BUT IN THE NIGHT IT'S THE STRONGEST.
UM, WHEN YOU WOKE UP, WERE THERE....UH.....REMAINS OF THE DREAM ON YOU?
YES. I WONDERED WHAT THAT WAS. IT WAS JUST A DREAM RIGHT?
Ami didn't have time to write back because the bell rang.
"Look there's Lita and Mina." Serena said pointing to the wall lockers.
"They look pretty drained." Ami murmured, shifting her bag to her other shoulder.
"Hey guys." Serena forced a chirp. It even sounded fake to her.
"I don't like this!" Mina said, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Oh, Mina, I'm so sorry! We'll find a way to get through this." Serena said wrapping Mina in a tight hug.
~ ~ ~ ~
"I need coffee!" Darien grumbled moodily and his friend Andrew smiled and brought a stemming cup of black liquid to him.
"You look like you didn't sleep well last night you guys." Andrew observed casting glances at the five men slumping down on the counter.
"How nice for you to notice." Kunzite muttered and let the scolding liquid burn his tongue.
"Care to say why?" Andrew asked with a glint in his eyes. "Negaverse business? Or is it the fact that I saw you and your mortal enemies hand in hand at the park this morning and I must say, you all looked pleasantly relaxed, if you catch my drift." He snickered.
The five men looked up t him sharply. "What did you say?" Nephrite asked in a low tone.
Andrew was a bit taken back. "I saw you and Lita together. I can't believe you would hold out on me you guys, I mean, why didn't you tell me you all kissed and made-up?" Andrew said a little hurt.
"When did you see this?" Darien demanded.
"This morning, like around, nine or so." Andrew answered confused.
"We were all in class then." He said.
"But I was YOU! I think I would know my own friend."
The five men exchanged glances, which piped Andrew's confusion and curiosity more. "Will someone tell me what the HELL is going on?!" There were startled stares from the customers around the arcade.
"Andrew! Keep it down!" Zoicite hissed at him.
"Let's go in the back." Darien said.
Andrew grumbled something under his breath and threw his rag down on the counter. The employees lounge was comfy with a TV and brown couches, a fridge, sink, microwave and stove.
"What's going on you guys?!" Andrew asked when the door was closed.
"This is hard to explain. Do you remember the story I told you about all of us on the moon kingdom?" Darien asked. Andrew nodded.
"Well something happened and the people you saw were our past selves. Somehow they got transported here to the present. They can't leave until the Shadowed Moon comes in two weeks." Darien said in a huff.
Andrew was speechless. He was a bit taken back at first when Darien told him about what or rather, who he was. I mean it's not something that happens everyday when you find out that your best friend was Tuxedo Mask and the freakin' Prince of the Earth. It was even more of a shock to find out that Serena was Sailor Moon and a princess herself. His beloved Serena whom he saw a little sister and his best friend had been past lovers! Lovers! And then four mysterious guys showed up and Andrew recognized them as the evil Negaverse minions. But they were good! And low and behold they were Darien's royal guards from the past AND also past lovers of the Sailor Scouts. Andrew easily imagined the guards and scouts together. Something just clicked with them, but they were too stubborn to see it for themselves. And now this. Andrew let out a deep sigh. This was all so, so......weird.
"Do the girls know about this?" There were nods.
"Well, do you know why they are here?" Andrew asked.
"Well....." Zoicite began.
Three men whirled around. "What?" Darien commanded.
"I think I know why. You see, you and Serena belong together Dare, there is no way around that fact. And we all know that you both find each other attractive. For some reason, you and Serena are fighting the inevitable, but it's causing some kind of change. Since you and Serena aren't together you have actually CHANGED the timeline. I think our past selves came back to try to get you two together." Zoicite explained.
"Then why did YOUR past selves come here?" Darien demanded.
"Probably for the same thing. It seems we all play an important role in the future."
"So that's the reason they linked us to them." Kunzite said.
"What link?" Andrew asked keeping up with the events.
"They linked us to them. Everything our past selves do or feel for each other, we feel too." Darien said.
"EVERYTHING." Nephrite hinted.
Andrew suddenly caught on to why they were so exhausted and promptly busted into laughter.
"Andrew! It's not funny! I actually fell asleep in class today!" Darien protested.
"Was it that bad?" He said between muffled giggles.
"They were at it all night long!" Jadeite growled recalling his vivid dream of making love to Raye.
"What? You can't keep up with us?" Said a mocking voice behind them. They all turned around to see the present scouts standing in the doorway.
"Mina!" Serena cried aghast at her friend's question.
"How long were you standing there?" Kunzite asked glaring at them, but a faint blush crept up his cheek. Images of Mina naked in all her glory ran through his mind.
"Long enough. Look, we just came here to tell you we might have a way to block their-uh-affections." Ami said and blushed lightly catching Zoicite's heated glance. Her body as well as her poor heart seemed to awake at his presence.
"How?!" Darien asked ignoring Serena and her cute uniform. Since when did he think she looked cute in a damn school uniform? Since last night, when you got to see what was BEHIND her school uniform. He answered his own question.
"We found out that the further away we are from them, the less it affects us. So, we just have to keep our distance from them." Ami explained shifting her weight to her other foot.
"However, this can only work pretty much when we're awake. We don't know how to prevent it from happening when we're asleep. For some reason, the link works the strongest in the night, especially when the moon is out." Lita said.
There was silence. It was an unnerving and awkward to be in the same room with each other after what had transpired last night. Pictures of their dreams assaulted them. The intimate things they done together, the feel of it.........
*Stop it guys. We can't let this get to us.* Serena told them through telepathy.
*It's just so hard not to picture it.* Raye stated back.
There was a tingling sensation running down Serena's side and down her hips and around to her.....
"Hey!" She said when there was an invisible hand squeezing her butt.
"There close." Lita said and tried to brush away a strong hand off her slender waist.
Andrew watched in shock when all of them made eyes contact. He felt the link they were talking about in the air. Slowly, each of them were gaining closer ground to each other. Should I stop them? He stepped back feeling uncomfortable in the hum of the room. Well, do something Andrew. He coached himself, but then thought again. He was tired of all the fights Serena and Darien got into, as well as the scouts and the guards. Maybe what was happening to them is for the best. Who was he to get involved with fate? With a grin, he exited the room and left them to their own wills.
~ ~ ~ ~
"The plan seems to be working, however slow it might be." Serena* said sliding in a bench at the arcade. Luna told her that the other Serena would always go there after school so she and the scouts as well as the guys went to check out the place. She felt her present self nearby, trying to fight the pull the other Darien was unaware of doing. The funny thing is she wasn't the one pushing them together. This was their own doing. If only they would embrace each other she thought sorrowfully.
