[Third Person:]
(Six Months Later - Television Interview)
"And now, here to give the interview, I know, some people are dying to hear...Serena Tsukino," Elizabeth Binges said, and the audience cheered as Serena walked from back stage.
"Hey," Serena said, waving at the camera and sitting beside Elizabeth.
"So Serena Tsukino...Dark Angel Selena...Sailor Moon...Princess Serenity...My goodness girl, who exactly are you," Elizabeth asked.
"I've asked myself that question so many times," Serena said, "but I'm Serena...or Sere as my friends call me."
"But you're Sailor Moon...one of the night time heroes of Tokyo," Elizabeth said, "You can't expect us to not want to know how that happened."
"I'd love to tell you, but we don't have that kind of time," Serena said laughing.
"Then an easy question, what's this I've heard about someone being engaged," Elizabeth said, and Serena blushed.
"Ohh...it's true. You're engaged. I'm so happy. Detail," Elizabeth gushed.
"He took me to where we had our first date...brought a picnic, and..." Serena trailed off.
"And what," Elizabeth asked.
"He had had my friend Lita bake the ring into a cupcake that said 'Will You Marry Me?' and I said yes," Serena said, blushing some more.
"Ohh...you're blushing again," Elizabeth said, and the camera zoomed in on Serena.
"Why don't you point that camera at my fiancé," Serena said.
"I almost forgot we have another superstar in our studio...Darien Shields, also known as Tuxedo Mask and Prince Endymion," Elizabeth said, and the camera swung around to show Darien in backstage.
"I must ask," Elizabeth said, as the camera focused back on her and Serena, "how did it feel going form Serena, small town girl, to Sailor Moon, champion of love and justice, to Princess Serenity, of a forgotten kingdom, to Serena, pop star...How did you deal with it."
"Going for the hard question," Serena laughed, and took a breath, "I-I was scared. I was afraid I was being put into a position I'd fail at. I was sad and mad that I could not be what I wanted to be. I was excited that I got to be somebody. And I was alone."
"Alone? Aren't there eight other sailor scouts and your prince," Elizabeth said.
"Tuxedo Mask was mystery. For a while, it wasn't clear whether he was on our side or evil. And as for the scouts, how could I tell them that the person who was supposed to be there leader was afraid to lead," Serena said.
"But you got through it," Elizabeth said, "How?"
"I was in English one day, and my teacher read a quote. 'I seldom end up where I wanted to go, but almost always end up where I need to be.' Douglas Adams...I didn't plan on it. I really didn't expect it. But that's what I was supposed to do," Serena
"Amazing," Elizabeth said.
"Maybe, but enough about that...I'm positive that I promised to sing a song," Serena said, standing up and walking over to a mic.
"Introducing Serena's new sing...Could It Be," Elizabeth said, as the music started.
I Know we've been friends forever
But now I think I'm feeling something totally new
And after all this time, I've opened up my eyes
Now I see you were always with me
Could it be? You & I
Never imagined
Could it be suddenly I'm fallin' for you
Could it be you were right here beside me and I never knew
Could it be that it's true that
It's you (and it's me) and it's you
It's kinda funny you were always here
But who would ever thought that we would end up here
And every time I've needed you you've been there for me through
Now it's clear I've been waiting for you
It was true. Serena had waited over a millennium for Darien. And she knew without a doubt that she would wait a million more if he asked her to.
Could it be? You & I
Never imagined
Could it be suddenly I'm fallin' for you
Could it be you were right here beside me and I never knew
Could it be that it's true that
It's you (ohhhhhhhh) and it's you
It was always Darien. Even when he was just the annoying college boy who picked on her hairstyle. To five and a half years later. It was always him.
Cause today is the start of the rest of our lives
I can see it in your eyes
And it's real and it's true
It's just me and you
Could it be that it's you
Could it be you & I
Never imagined
Could it be suddenly I'm fallin' for you
Could it be you were right here beside me and I never knew
Could it be that it's true that
It's you and it's you
(Six Months Later - Serena and Darien's Wedding)
Serena smiled at Darien, and as the song came to an end, she said, "A thousand years ago, I was princess on the moon. Five years ago, I was teenage struggling through school. And the one thing that never changed was my love for you...I love you, Darien Shields, my Prince."
