Author's Note: I cannot believe I have made it to chapter 10! Thank you to everyone who has stuck with me. Since I am done with school and no one seems to want to hire me, hopefully I will get more writing done. However don't get your hopes up, looking for a job, looking for an apartment, and doing summer school, all come before writing. I know sad, but such is the life of a college student.

Just a warning, there is more cursing this chapter than I believe there has been in previous chapters. Now without further adieu, chapter 10.

"Oh, Demi, I'm home!" Calls Alec, from the door, imitating Ricky Ricardo from the I Love Lucy show.

"Darien and I are in the living room." I call back to him.

"What have you two been up to?" Alec asks as he walks into the living room portion of our kitchen/living room apartment.

"Biochemistry." Replies Darien.

"So hell." I also answer.

"Well I have come just in time." Alec says with a grin.

"No, you have not. As much as I love you and as much as I don't want to do this, we don't have time." I half whine, half explain.

"This won't take long." Alec says as he tosses two little pieces of paper onto my open biochemistry book that is lying in front of me on the coffee table.

"What the hell is a Romantic Cruise and why do we have tickets?" I ask with a horrified look on my face.

"Those tickets are for us. Sorry Darien I only bought two." Alec says to Darien quickly before looking back at me, "I thought you could use a night to relax."

"Honey that is really sweet of you but I hate all that romance-y stuff. I know! Darien, why don't you take that girl Serena? I know she would appreciate the romantic atmosphere more than I would." I say to Darien before turning my attention back to Alec, "And you and I can spend a nice quite evening at home."

"What? No! Serena hates me. I don't like her like that. In fact I don't like her at all." Darien tries to defend, that is deny, that he has feelings for Serena.

"Right…" I say as I give Darien a droll look.

"Excuse me, but I'm going to interrupt this little argument that is about to happen. We are going." Alec says looking at me.

"Give me good reasons." I reply.

"You don't have to cook, you won't have to clean up after take out, and someone else is cooking and cleaning. And you get to see me in a suit." Alec lists off without having to put much thought into it.

"Deal. But only if I get to take you out of the suit."

"Only when we get home."

"Double deal." I then look towards Darien, "Sorry Darien you can't have the tickets."

"That is quite okay. Remember I didn't want the tickets." Darien says.

"Okay then, now that that is settle I'll let you get back to your homework." Alec says as he stands up, kisses me on the head and heads towards our bedroom.

"We can't go anywhere anymore." Alec says as we are pressed together, hiding in one of the many small "rooms" that can be found on a ship. We are hiding because the moment I stepped on the ship I knew that something was not right and that the Dark Kingdom was behind it.

"Everyone please gather in the auditorium for a special show." We hear over the ships loud speaker.

"That's where they will make their move." I whisper to Alec.

"Let's go." He says before he eases the door open and looks around.

As we are heading to the auditorium I spot Amy and Raye. Turning slightly away from them and toward Alec I say out of the side of my mouth. "The girls are here, we are going have to be careful if we have to make a move." Alec gives a slight nod of his head and we keep moving with the crowd. Once we are inside the auditorium, we seek into a props closet near the stage.

"That bastard!" I yell, however I am not heard in the midst of the noise of the crowd and before I can charge out of our hiding spot, Alec grabs me.

"Hold on. Remember the girls are out there. What is it?" Alec asks.

"That disgusting thing, pretending to be the captain, is the general who took great pleasure from torturing me." I spit out.

"And what exactly are you planning on doing?" Alec questions.

"I'm going to kill him! I'm going to show him how effective torturing should be done and he's going to be the example. I'm going to castrate him, dick and all!"

"Sorry honey, but people are going to ask why you have men's anatomy in a jar." Alec replies with a good note of sarcasim in his voice.

"I store it in the gym. No one but you or I go in there."

"You can't. The girls are in there" I don't let Alec finish.

"I don't care I want him dead. Now is the perfect time and place. We are in the middle of the ocean so the only people that might be in harms why the people that have been harmed are already. Once I kill him they will fine. And I would think that you would want the man who tortured the woman you love, to suffer an extremely painful death." I explain and question all at the same time.

"Again, you can't. If the girls…"

"I don't care!" I interrupt "I want…"

"Soldier!" Alec yells at me, and before my mind can register it, my body stands at attention.

"Have you forgotten your training?! When did we start making decisions based on emotions and our own wants?! When did we start taking revenge instead of protecting our princess?!" Alec shouts at me in the voice he used when he used to train new recruits. I simply stand there staring at him.

"I'm sorry." He says in a much softer voice. "I shouldn't have yelled at you like that, but are you back to the calm, rational woman that I love?"

"It's okay, I needed that. I am much calmer now and really turned on."

"The second was not my intent. But you will have to turn off for the moment, because I believe the girls have just transformed and headed out to the deck. We should follow because if Jedite should attack them, Sailor Moon's tiara will not be enough." Alec says as he peers out of the little window of the door.

"You're right." I sigh, "Let's go."

"You should transform, before we go out." Alec says

"Right." When I am done transforming I look at Alec and see that he has made a mask out of a black strip of fabric. "Taking a cue from Darien I see."

"Hey, I was already in the suit. Besides I probably look more like Zorro, than Tuxedo Mask."

I laugh and we sneak out to the deck. We get there in enough time to see the wonderful teamwork the girls exhibit in killing the demon. All of us then turn our attention to Jedite, and as we ready ourselves to step in for his first attack, he vanishes.

"Pussy." I mumble.

"Come on." Alec says, "We should join the others and look like we were passed out too."
