"Heero Yui." Serena closed her eyes trying to fight off tears. "Something tells me you either know or have a sneaking suspicion." She said.
"Are you going to tell me or what??" He said as Mina walked by the bedroom door looking rather shocked to see Heero sitting on Serena's bed in a very relaxed manner.
"Serena?? Heero??" Mina broke the glare they had on each other. Serena looked at her half sister and sighed.
"Heero and I were talking. He was asking me all about Trei and told me he doesn't trust me with a person he knows so little about." Serena said urging him out the door. "He wants to know all about Trei." Serena said as relief built up in Mina's eyes.
"See I told you before he waas slightly worried about you." Mina said.
"Now out the both of you.. I wish to sleep now!" Serena shoved them both out the door and shut it behind her. She leaned against the door and sighed. "Treize… I love you." She whispered and began crying. She clutched the ring to her chest. "but how will you handle me being the world's savior." She said. "And how will my new friends handle you being alive.. I know it won't be as easy as you accepted them being around." She said curling up in a ball on her bed.
*~*~*~*~*~*
"Apples!!" Serena called running inside the housa and upstair before anyone could see her.
"Serena, What do you want.. for dinner.." Duo looked for the girl but she was already upstairs and her bedroom door slammed shut.
"I don't see why she calls out some sort of fruit everytime she comes in the house." Wufei said.
"So we know it's just her in the house.. if she brings company she says more than one fruit." Mina happily pointed out.
"Hmm that was weird." Duo came in. "I mentioned food and Serena barely acknoiwledged."
"Are you serious??" Luna asked waking up from one of her cat naps
"Yeah.." Duo said and Artemis ran to the stairs and up.
"Serena??" Artemis nudged the door open with his head. He looked around and saw the petit blonde sitting by her window as rain poured down it. She was now in her Jr. High Uniform which surprised him bcause he wasn't sure if she could still fit that thing. "Serena??" He looked at her and saw sad eyes and tear streaks down her face.
"Why couldn't I have remembered the whole story about Mariemaia??" Serena sighed. "Or kept my mouth shut that day I first met her. She wouldn't have asked all about my pre-planned life again." Serena said thinking about how she let slip that she had been inches away from death when Mariemaia attempted her deed.
"Serena??" The cat asked gaininng atteniton this time.
"Funny…" She sighed. "When I was still in this uniform everything was perfect and carefree for a little while. I didn't have to worry about fallin gin love with childhood friends and explaining your life story because I opened my mouth months ago." She said as the white cate jumped up on her window sill.
"Come again??" He asked gently.
"Before deciding that Mina and I should come here I met a girl during one of my depressed moments. She seemed depressed herself and we got to talking. We both mentioned something about losing our futures. I just sad something about a pre-planned future and she told me she lost her father during the war. After arriving here not too long ago I met that little girl again.. her name was Mariemaia, apparently her father han't died and what shocked me most was that her father was the one who gave me my ring." She set the silver band on the window sill next to the white cat.
"I thought.."
"I did too as well as most of the world. I only recently found out that he was indeed alive and I had once again fallen victim to a spell under the goddess of love." Serena said noticing Mina standing outside the bedroom door. "His daughter had apparently found me interesting and brought me up a few times. They finally confronted my meaning of a pre-planned life and well.."
"You had to explain??" Artemis said.
"More like I knocked them unconscious with dream memories. A technique I had learned a while back..instead of explaining the victim falls asleep and well.. can see everything that has happened to me in their dreams." She said. "I'm sure he'd need time, but I don't know if he'd want to see me anymore. I mean coming back from a false death is one thing but having a best friend/new girlfriend who has actually died on several occasions is just plain freaky." She said earning a giggle from Mina who was now inside the room.
"True.." Mina sighed. She picked up the ring. "Is he really alive??"
"Have I been spending all my time with Trei-chan??" Serena asked with a wry smile.
"You serious??" Mina asked. "Trei.. is Treize??"
"Hai.." Serena sighed as a small figure was seen outside her window. "Nani??" She looked at the red haired girl.
"SERENA!!!!" The voice yelled seeing the girl in the window. Her vision shifted from the window upstairs to glance at the Gundam pilots whose attention she had drawn by accident. She glanced back up and the window where the girl she needed to talk to was at and the window was open but Serena was gone. "Damn.." She muttered.
"Such language shouldn't be used by such a young girl." Duo said with a funny grin. "So what are you doing here Mariemaia?? I thought you left to live with Une."
"Not at all." The girl grinned. "I was with Une but Miss Releana tried taking care of me but I left. I Went in search of a place to call home. Now if you'll excuse me I have some business dealing with an occupant in your home." Mariemaia said.
"Who exactly do you know about in ur home??" Quatre asked.
"Miss Serena." Mariemaia said simply earning defensive glares from all the guys.
"Why do you want my cousin??" Duo said in a complete defensive tone that startled a few for a bit.
"Duo Maxwell you leave that girl alone." Serena's Gentle voice came from the upstairs window. Then she landed outside. "You've goone through the whole thing already??"
"Hai.. so has Otousan." Mariemaia said making Serena smile. "I would like to formally address the whole thing that started the confusion and tell you about the time I went to try and take over the world." Mariemaia held out her hand.
"I'll be back later!!" Serena took her hand and they walked away in the rain.
"Serena!! Don't go.." Mina called but got no response from the girl.
"You know you should've nodded and kept going when I brought the whole you not caring about me taking over the world. Maybe dad wouldn't be in so much shock." Mariemaia broke the silence.
"Yeah but I'm know for talking before I think." Serena said.
"So you're really Sailor Moon. Protector of earth??"
"Yeah… now you understand why I so believed in my destiny.. after it all."
"Yes…" Mariemaia said.
"You do know.. I kinda know bits and pieces of your attempt to take over the world." Serena said.
"So why did you come with me??" Mariemaia said shivering a bit from the cold rain.
"Because I enjoy your company." Serena said to the girl who smiled as they crossed the street. Unfortunately a car skidded past the red light and went straight for Mariemaia who only stred for a moment. Before impact was made a body collided with the young girl's but she hit her head on the curb and she was knocked unconscious anyway.
Treize Khushrenada was currently staring up at the ceiling of his bedroom. Sailor Moon… he could've handled the fact that she was a soldier in war or something but a fighter who uses magic is just farfetched. I mean he didn't think in a million years it would be anyone he knew much less cared so deeply about. Mariemaia had goone out for a walk a few hours ago.. she should've been back by now, at least then he had someone to help sort out his thoughts. Another sigh escaped his lips as the phone next to him began screaming for attention to let him know someone wanted his attention.
"Hello??"
"Hello Mr. Khushrenada." A Shaky voice said over the phone.
"Yes??"
"I'm Dr. Mizuno at Lunar Hospital. I'm calling in reference of your daughter Mariemaia." The voice paused almost as if the person had been crying. "Earlier she had been involved in a car accident."
"She's ok right?!?!" Treize was on the verge of a panic attack.
"Yes, Luckilya Miss Serena Moon had shoved the girl out of the way. She left the accident with asimple bump on the head l eaving her unconscious." Treize let out a sigh of relief but then realized the woman on the phone had mentioned Serena pushing her out of the way. "There are some forms I wish for you to fill out so could you come down here immediately??"
"Yes.." Treize hung up the phone then and rushed over to the hospital letting what happened process through his mind. "Kami-sama let them both be okay." He sighed.
"how would Serena know about Mariemaia??" Quatre thought aloud knowing he'd receive no answer.
"Well.. I know." Mina spoke up gaining all attention. "Serena was in one of her depressed moods you know about Sailor Moon and a young girl came by and they spoke. She made fun of Serena for have a 'preplanned' life and told her she can break those chains. Right after Serena convinced me to come and torture Duo with our presence and here we are." Mina said recieveing silence. Then her communicator sounded off. "Ai no megami on the line!!!" Mina looked and saw the tear streaked face of Ami Mizuno.
"Mina!!! Serena's been in a car accident." She blurted out.
"Nani/What?!?!" Sounded from the room of boys and two cats.
"She was brought here with a young girl a little while ago. From what I understand she pushed the girl out the way and took the blow full force." Ami said breaking down even more.
"What's going on now??"
"Serena didn't have major damage.. I think from the crystal but she has enough to be put under a coma with or without the crystal. Since you're family we need you to fill out some papers."
"I'm on my way.." Mina said looking at the people. "I'm going to go.."
"Get in my car." Heero said firmly. She sighed and walked out while the others followed.
"You don't all have to.."
"We're going to protect you from Amara and Rei." Wufei said.
"Good point." Mia sitghed as they all sped to the hospital.
