CHAPTER 2.
Raye was the first one to arrive at Serena's house with Chad in tow; she looked confused but waited until the others turned up before she started on Serena. One by one they turned up with their knights, even Darien who was grabbed on the way by a hypoactive Mina, and a frustrated Artemis who was clinging for dear life onto Minas shoulder. The only ones that didn't come were the Pluto's and the Outer Senshi who were patrolling in case of Nega verse attacks. Luna had arrived with Lita, which made Serena wonder what she was up to. Everyone looked at Serena and then at Raye who looked about to blow, and then she did.
"What's the matter meatball head, couldn't it wait until the party, or can't you decide what to wear?" Raye exploded.
"Nothing like that." Serena said and then promptly burst into tears.
Darien went and put his arm around Serena saying, "Give it a rest Raye."
"Alright, so what's the big emergency then, the world going to explode or something?" Raye said sarcastically.
"Something like that," Serena said with a sniffle.
They decided to listen to Serena as she explained in her own mixed up way, she finished by saying that Pluto was going to be at the party later and she would explain everything a bit better.
Amy piped up and said, "I think I understand, but what could cause the time line to change like that, that is what I don't understand."
Everyone sweat dropped at that moment, because they didn't understand anything Serena had said, including Luna who tried to understand Serena and succeeded most of the time.
"The brain is at it again." Lita said with a grin as Amy blushed.
Serena then noticed the time and stated, "I'm going to be LATE!"
Everyone groaned and Luna piped up and said, "There's nothing unusual in THAT!"
"Ok guys, lets go get ready." Mina said full of excitement, she loved getting dressed up and going to parties.
They all headed downstairs and for the front door, at the door Darien turned and gave Serena a long passionate kiss which made his heart sing at the knowledge of what he was going to do in a couple of hours.
"See you soon meatball head,"Raye said.
"Hey only muffin can call me that," Serena said in reply.
"Bye my meatball head, see you in two hours." Darien said.
"Ok," Serena said as she turned to rush upstairs once more.
"You'll have to mind her, she is very excitable at the moment." Said Luna to the others as they walked off to go home.
As Serena went about having a quick bath and doing all the girlie stuff of shaving legs and scrubbing her long hair she thought about tomorrow, thinking that her life would change drastically and she didn't think that she was ready.
When she sat down to brush her long hair and style it back into her Odangoes, a vision filled the mirror, it startled Serena so much that she dropped her hairbrush on her bare toes.
"Ouch, that huurrrrt." She wailed.
"Are you ok my daughter?" Asked the voice.
"Yes, I'm fine. Mother, I never thought that I would see you again," Serena said softly, hoping her parents of this time would not hear her.
"I had to come on this special day, I did give birth to you first, and this is as special to me as it is your mother downstairs." Queen Serenity said lovingly to her daughter from the Moon Kingdom.
"I love you so much, why didn't you save yourself too? It hurts that you cannot be with me on my birthday," Serena said with tears in her eyes.
"Darling, I am always with you, here in your heart. I know your secret and congratulations sweetheart." Queen Serenity said with a wink of her eye. "I have to go now, hurry and get ready, remember I love you and always will my darling daughter, and how pretty you are, your father would be so proud of you." Queen Serenity finished as she faded away. "Luna take care of her please."
"Mother…" Serena cried, then remembered her mother's words about getting ready.
"Luna, will I ever see her again?"
"I don't know Serena, but you will be late if you don't hurry up." Luna replied, as she looked at Serena she wondered what the secret was all about.
Serena rushed to get ready and saw that Darien was pulling up to the driveway and getting off his bike to go knock on the door.
"Oh, Luna how do I look?" Serena turned and asked her cat guardian.
"Wow, you look more beautiful now than you have ever looked, so much like your mother and so much like the Queen that you will become one day." Luna said confidently.
"You really think so??"
"Yes now go and see Darien, he is waiting downstairs for you."
Luna thought to herself how much Serena had grown up since she first met her, but then she heard Serena trip down the stairs and Darien laughing and she thought maybe not that much after all.
