TITLE:Runaway
CHAPTER:2
That same night, Serena quickly packed her belongings. Her vision blurry with her salty, tears,trickling down her ivory skin face. If her friends didn't want her then she wouldn't be where she wasn't wanted. Luna had been staying at Mina's place for the time being , and she was thankful for that. She wouldn't be able to explain her current situation to Luna.
Serena wrote a quick letter to her parent's and Luna. She took one last long glance at her room before she headed out the door. She would miss her room dearly , it was the only place that represented her. With a heavy sigh Serena closed the door.
The cab she had called earlier was now out in front of her house.She stepped in and that was the beginning of her new life..
The next morning , Luna was heading towards Serena's house. Mina had told her everything that had occured last night, and the scouts had begged her to talk to Serena for them. So here Luna was doing the scouts business for them ,she just hoped that Serena hadnt taken what they said so harshly. Though she was upset with the scouts for treating their princess in such a way, and she made sure the scout's let her know how she felt.
Luna leaped up on the windowsill and saw the room completely cleaned out. Luna didn't see Serena anywhere but she found a note on her bed saying...
Dear Luna,
Your proably wondering where I am ,well im not goin to tell you that
and you proably already heard about what happened during the battle.Im sorry to say this
but I wont be coming home to Tokyo for a long time.I need to sort some things out.
I cant stay in a place where my friends hate me.I'll love my friends always, say goodbye
for them for me,and tell Darien I love him. Till the next time that we meet Luna . . . . . . . .
Love,
Serena
Word by word Luna's tears silently fell on the pastel pink paper. Her throat ached with pain but not as much as her heart. She failed her princess as a guardian. Luna quickly called a scout meeting. Luna wasn't the only one crying . Downstairs Serena's mother was hugging her husband for comfort and he too was crying.
Serena opened her sleepy eyes, as the plane was now reaching land. She grabbed her bags but when she turned around what she saw made her drop her bags.
" It's been a long time since we've met Serenity . . "
Standing before her was Malachite. Serena gritted her teeth and aimed her fist to meet his jaw. She couldn't transform in a public place, but the least she could do was some physical damage. Malachite quickly stopped her fist with the palm of his hand. He gripped his fingers around her fist locking it with hers.
"Please Serenity such violent behavior is not necessary"
Serena snorted at his comment. "And just why should I believe you?"
Malachite heaved a sigh.She wasn't going to make it easy for him but he could understand her. After all the things he did or supposively did.
"If you come with me I will explain everything."
Serena looked at him. There was something different about him but she was still unsure at the fact of her alone with him. Not to mention he tried to kill her in two lifetimes.
As if reading her mind Malachite quickly said. " You have my word Serenity I wont harm you in any way."
Serena still unsure went with him any ways. Serena walked off with Malachite carrying her bags to his red porsche in the parking lot. Serena's jaw dropped just how much money did he have? Malachite grinned at her and she just looked at him. Serena took in his appearance He was a good lookin guy with his silver haired mane and well toned body, when he wasn't trying to kill her.
Malachite opened the passenger door for her and she sat herself in. He placed her bags in the trunk then went to the drivers door and buckled himself in. They sped off down the street in a flash of red blurriness.
Malachite parked his red porsche inside the apartment's complex garage. He then opened the door for Serena. Serena's jaw dropped the second time that day. What she saw was a very tall expensive looking apartment building.
Malachite grabbed Serena's bags from the trunk while she stood amazed in front of the building.Serena shook her head out of her reverie as she saw Malachite walking up the steps, and quickly followed him up.
"Guys look who I brought with me" Malachite said as he opened up the door ,her bags slung over one of his shoulders.
Serena wanted to know who he was talking too and peeked her head,What she saw startled her.
A blast of the past enemies thats what it was. Nephrite was in the kitchen cooking and peaked his head back , Jedite looked behind him from the couch watching TV and Zoycite glanced up from his laptop.
"Im sure you remember them Serenity but just incase you dont the one to your left in the kitchen is Nephrite , in front is Jedite and towards the right is Zoycite."
Each one bowed their heads in recognition when their name had been said.
"How did you guys all find each other"? Serena asked curiousity striking the best of her.
"Nephrite this is goin to take awhile why dont you go make some tea?" Nephrite obliged and
went to make tea.
"Serenity . . ."
"Serena please we dont have to use formality"
"Ok Serena lets take a seat on the couch." Malachite ushered her towards the couch.Serena sat down next to Jedtie but gave him an unsure look.
Jedite laughed . "Dont worry Serena were not the bad guys, we never were acutally."
"Never evil?" Serena questioned.
"Jedite's right Serena. We never were when you fought us during the Silver Millenium or in this time.That wasnt us but Beryl's clones" Said Zoycite.
"Beryl's clones?" Now Serena was more confused than ever.
"Lets start at the Silver Millenium I dont know if you ever relized it but , we were actually
Prince Endymion's general."
Serena had a shocked expression on her face.Malachite continued with the story.
"As the scouts were your protectors , we were Endymion's protectors.During the battle Beryl
kidnapped all of us one at a time and replaced us with her clones so it didnt seem we were
missing but just turned against out prince." Malachite couldnt continue the story anymore ,
he was going through some deep emotions.
Nephrite came in with the tea and set them down on the coffee table and placed a comforting hand on Malachites shoulder. Nephrite continued on where Malachite had left off.
" As time passed by Endymion relized we were'nt the same as we normally were and then
relized we turned against him.After he found out about the clones they returned to Queen Beryl and
saw her chance to attack the Moon.As for us she held us trapped as prisonars and we watched that day that the moonkingdom fell, and saw our love's battled hard and strong."
At this moment Serena became confused."Your love's?" she questioned.
As if on instinct Zoycite answered her question and joined the rest of them on the couch. "Yes our love's, also known as Sailor Mercury,Mars,Jupiter,andVenus."
Serena was in total shock. "I never knew Zoycite,Who belonged with who? "
"Princess Raye was with me,Amy with Zoycite,Lita with Nephrite,and Mina with Malachite." Jedite said as his eyes drifted to his one true love.
This was all too much info for Serena to absorb.
"By the way Serenity . . . ."
" Serena" Serena quickly replied to Malachite.
"Serena where are your scouts? Aren't they suppose to protect you?" Malachite questioned, trying to read her expression.
Serena looked down and didnt say anything for awhile.
"Serenity" Malachite said more sternly than before.
Serena couldnt help but feel connected to them in some way.She simply replied "I ran away
from them and this is where I am now"
The generals had their mouths open.
"Serena how did this happen?" Malachite asked gently now.
Serena sighed and saw this was going to be a long day."There was a battle as usual I was on
my way to help the scouts and I got sidetracked by a youma.After that battle I was battered up pretty bad. Some of the wounds are still fresh and haven't healed yet. I went to the scouts to help them,after the youma died they scolded me for being irresponsible and late. "
Serena was on the verge of crying little droplets of tears came down her crystal blue eyes and right into her lap.Nephrite sat next to her and gave her comfort.
Serena continued on" I tried to explain but they didnt give me a chance too. They said they didnt want me a part of the scouts anymore. And Darien my one and only love gave me this coldest look that I'll never forget."
Serena couldnt stop the tears from falling. As much as she wanted to stop crying she couldn't.They fell faster and faster.
Nephrite hugged her and she cried right through his shirt. The soft material becoming moist with her salty tears.Her eyes slowly closed. She was exhausted from the plane ride and didnt' have a decent night's sleep. Nephrite carried her into his bedroom and tucked her in.When he came out the generals were upset with the scouts.
"I cant believe they would do that to her." Zoycite whispered his words fading slowly.
"I say we fly over there and teach them a lesson." Jedite said while standing up and punching his fist into his palm.
"NO Jedite we will do none of that."
Jedite looked at him."Why Malachite?"
"Because we wouldn't go as low as they would it is now our duty to take care of the Princess.If we do ever run into them again, then we'll give them a piece of our minds." Malachite said each word with venom.
"I still cant believe Endymion would be so stupid,to give her such a look." Nephrite played with the spoon in his tea. His eyes angered at his prince.
" It shouldn't be a suprise ,Endymion always did some stupid stuff. I guess this is one of his moments" Zoycite took his glasses off and pinched the bridge of his nose. Relieving the pain from his nose due to his glasses.
"We better get some rest its been a long day. Nephrite you can bunk in with Jedite
since Serenity has your room." Malachite said while taking the tea cups into the sink.
"WHAT! Why me and not Zoycite! I cant stand Jedite he snores too loudly!" Nehphrite hated having to sleep with Jedite. He never had a nice night with him.
"I do not!" Jedite glared daggers at Nephrite. The audacity this man had to say such things to him.
"You know im going to have to agree with Nephrite on this one. Jedite perhaps you should see a doctor for that disorder you have." Zoycite smiled smugly at Jedite who now diverted his attention to him.
Malachite smiled at the three of them quarrelling like little girls.
"Malachite arent you going to do anything about this!" Jedite's face was heated. He looked like a ripe tomatoe. His fists at his sides shaking with anger.
Malachite just smiled and turned to leave them."Goodnight ladies."
The three of them looked at each other and then him.They all smirked and Malachite was
bomboarded with pillows attacking him left and right.
"HEY!" Malachite quickly grabbed a pillow of his own and started throwing it at the others.Before you knew it there was a big pillow fight.
"Luna whats the big emergency,that you had to call us for a scout meeting?" The look on Luna's face was worrying Amy when she called for a scout meeting. She had never seen Luna in such a manner.
The girls sat on the floor around the table.Luna pounced on the table and gently layed the note in front of them.Each one reading it silently to themselves. Not too long after Luna showed them the note each and every one of them was crying. Raye most of all flooding tears for her princess.
"Amy do you think you can locate her on your mercury computer?"
" I..I can try but most likely she used her crystal to hide where she is, so we wouldnt be able to pin-point her location." Amy rubbed the tears away from her eyes.
" WAIT! what about Darien their link he can find her!" Raye nearly knocked the table over when she jumped up hoping she found a solution to their problem.
"No good she somehow managed to block me from reaching her"
Everyone turned their heads to face the new voice.All at the same time their eyes widened when they took in Darien's appearance. His hair tossled, his clothes a mess and bags under his eyes from a restless nights sleep.
Darien sighed,some time in the middle of the night he felt a pain in his heart one that made him scream in pain. As soon as it was gone he felt empty as if he was missing something. He reached out to Serena but there was some type of barricade. He searched all of Tokyo looking for her , but without his link to her things were more complicated.
Now here they were their minds off in their own world. There was nothing that any of them could do but wait. Hoping Serena would come back some day.
