Title: Lunar, NYC

Chapter 4: Say a Little Prayer
Rated PG-13
Disclaimer:Kami and Hell's Bombs, I hate these damn things, but they must be
done. ( You ppl should know this by now) I don't own BSSM, just this story.
So don't sue. I also have a few peoms and songs I didn't write that will be
credited as the story goes along.
It was time to put away the holiday decorations at the deLune household.
I was in charge of tree ornaments (along woth my brother Karan) and the
mantle (cards, candles, stockings, etc.). While putting away stockings, I
found there was a huge bulge in the toe of mine. Ididn't understand how I
could have miss a gift. There was the possibility of it being a perverse
joke Karan was playing, like it being a pack of Trojans or a deck of those
cheap, porno-themed card decks. As I reached in, I sighed in relief. It was a
book. I pull out a golden covered bool and my heart sank. "Sonnets on the
Philosophies of Love". And there was a red rose keepong a page with one of my
favorite poems.
"Sing no more ditties, sing no more,
Of dumps so dull and heavy,
the fraud of men was ever so,
Since summer first was leafy,
Then sigh not so, but let them go,
And be you blithe and bonny,
Converting all your sounds of woe
Ito heynonny, nonny."
-Much Ado About Nothing,
by William Shakespeare
My heart dropped twice over at the poem on the opposite page. It was "10
Things I Hate About You" from the Mirimax film.
"I hate the way you talk to me,
And the way you cut your hair.
I hate the way you drive my car.
I hate it when you stare.
I hat youe big dumb combat boots,
And the way you read my mind.
I hate you so much, it makes me sick,
It even makes me rhyme.
I hate the way you're always right,
I hate it when you lie.
I hate it when you make me laugh,
Even worse, when you make me cry.
I hate it when youre not around,
And the fact that you didn't call,
But mostly I hate the fact I don't hate you,
Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all."
Every word stung, worse than a hornet. I put the book down and turned on
the radio. "She's my lover, she's my friend..." I quickly changed stations. I
couldn't bear to listen to Ricky Martin, thet song amoung them all,
considering my present state. "It would be nice to know everything, but I
never said I did..." Letters to Cloe's "I'm a Fool". No changing stations on
my favorite band.
I knew this song well enough to know that the lyrics woustill get me to
think of Tam, but I listened any how. The part that really smarted
came."...And I'll think of your other girls and how I wanna be the only
one..."Ouch. Then came the lyrics that would inspire and give hope. "... I
don't care what you say, I don't care what you do, just make it me. Make it
me. Make it me."
And with that, I rode my bike to the Fortune Store. Luna said something
about "strong energy", so she came with me in my tote, again.
The Fortune Store was very mysterious. The shop owner's daughter worked
here and attended my school. Achren Tine; a mysterious, tempremental, but
friendly-enough girl imported from Ireland a few years ago. I would be
suprised if most of the energy Luna felt came from her.
"Hiya, Achren!"
"Serena! What can I do for you today?"
I'm kind of a regular here. Very supersticious (Cerri: Except for that
thing 'bout black cats, of course! They give way cool power!) And I loved all
the good luck charms and incense.
"Whadda you have to renew love?"
"Let's see."Achren turned pages in an old, leather-bound book. I already
knew the procedure. "You'll need rose water,.." I grabbed a vile behind the
counter."...lavendar oil,..." Picked a sample tube from a basket. "... a
silver love tailisman,..." I chose a pretty crecent shaped one with a rose
quartz center with the anchient symbol of love carved in."...a pink hair
tie,.." Ughh, pink?!".. the Lovers Tarot card and a prayer to St.Valentine."
Achren handed them to me.
"It's a waxing moon, so the time is now. Before going to bed, say this
prayer and drink the water. Slip the card under your pillow and rub the oil
over you eyelids. His name must be the last thing you say going to sleep and
first thing you say when you wake up. Wear the tailisman and ties for three
days every week before th wanning moon. "
"This all costs?"
"$22. By the way, Sere, who's the guy?"
"That's a little personal, don't you think?" I retorted while paying.
"Did you know Tammian had a crush on you last school year?"
"Really?!" I bursted with suprise and intrest.
"I thought it might be him,"Achren said, lookong like a chesser cat.
"I said that with shock."
"Exactly. Were it not him you would have said it flatly, taking it in as
a joke."
Ops." Well, I'll see you in school Tuesday. Bye!" And lo as I began to
leave, who did I see enter the store? "Hey, Meatball Head. Buying a love
potion for me?" "Perhaps," was the answer. That oughta have left him
bewildered. "That girl..." I could hear Achren say. "Hey Achren, ya got any
love potions?" "You really think you need some?!"
"There was a familliar power coming from that girl. Maybe she's a
senshi?"
"Maybe. You know, in the Sailor Moon series, on of the senshi was a
priestess with ESP. Perhaps she's Mars, since that was her senshi name."
"Like a true Sailor. And a Princess."
"Thank you Luna."
"Now we just have to work on you doging and physical attacks." I graon,
resenting that.
******************************************************************************
********************
That night, I had this wonderful dream; Tam cam to my room in the form of
Tuxedo Kamen, and took off his mask for me like he did at the masquarade. He
warmly embranced me, and we kissed as if we only lived for that moment. "I
love you, my Princess." "I love you, my Endymion. Never let me go." The I had
a vision of seeing Achren as Tammian and I still embraced in the park. She
looked up to us, and the symbol of Mars flashed on her forehead.
******************************************************************************
********************
School started again, and now I wore a emblem of love about my neck along
with the emblem of the moon. I got another "Hey Moon Freak" from Tam, but I
just said "Hey" back instead of my usual "Shut up!"
At lunch, I continued to read "Sonnets on the Philosophies of Love", or
at least studying the rose. I became so serious with what was going on now. I
didn't even notice Tam come up behind me. He grabbed me by the arm and took
me out of the cafeteria.
"OK, what's going on with you?" He still smelled of roses.
"What the hell are you talking about?!"I snaped. At least I could still
argue to his face.
"You've barely acted normal when I'm around, but you seem perfectly fine
with you friends!"
"I've just been more reponsible and serious lately, nothing more. It
shouldn't concern you."
"Why shouldn't it concern me?!" I said nothing, but turned my head away.
"Why won't you look at me?"
"I am one who may not look upon your face, not matter how much I want," I
replied in a regal voice similar to that of the one I took up at the
masquarade. I cought a glimps of his face. It was first bewildered, then
shocked with understanding.
His powerful arms turned me around and his warm, soft lips pressed against
mine. It felt so right. "So you're Cerridwen Hime from the masquarade, and
Sailor Moon?" I looked down, then nodded. He embraced me tightly, and I
caught sight of the rose in his jacket. I kissed him on the cheeck, tore away
from his embrace and ran to the bathroom, tears welling up in my eyes as I
entered a stall.
"Sere?" I heard Kiy's voice from outside of the stall.
"Oh, Kiy, what am I going to do with that boy?"
"Who, Tam? Ignore him. He's just a big jerk." I shook my head vigously.
"No, Kiy, he's my Tuedo Kamen. And he knows I'm Sailor Moon."
"Sere.."
"I didn't tell him, he kinda figured it out on his own."
"Then you should be happy. You found your Endymion." I stopped crying.
Kiy was right, he was my prince. I should be happy. I walkind back into the
cafeteria to where Tam sat. I tapped him on the shoulder and extended my arm
as he turned. I opened my palm, revealing the rose that I used as a book
mark.
Happy.....
