Chapter 4
Lunar looked up at Darien with sad green eyes. "I never should have bothered. I'm so sorry to have hurt you." Lunar started to run away. "Lunar, Wait." Darien said as he went after the cat. When he caught up to Lunar he said: "Lunar, when you did that, I felt something. It was almost like a memory. I didn't want there to be a war on Earth or to hurt Serenity's feelings. I wanted to ask you though, why weren't you there?" "I was on Earth, trying to get them to stop the war. I told everyone the people on the moon were our friends but they wouldn't listen. They told me I was wrong. They said I was a softy." Tears were beginning to form in Lunar's eye's. "I don't think your a softy, Lunar. If you were you wouldn't have given me that memory." Darien replied. "Not all the memories are that sad. Here, close your eye's and concentrate." Darien closed his eye's and the gold crescent on Lunar's head started to glow and a memory came to Darien's head. It was in the throne room and his mom and dad, a least that's who he thought it was were standing near him. Serenity was standing across from him. On the other side of Serenity was her mother, Queen Serenity. Edmund looked like he was only about 12 and Serenity looked about 10. Serenity giggled. "Come on Edmund! I'll show you around the kingdom!"Serenity ran out of the room with Edmund running after. They went out of the palace into a garden full of rose bushes. Serenity made sure it was safe to talk. "Our parents talk alot. Mom told me your parents are friends of hers." Serenity was sitting on a bench swinging her legs. Edmund laughed and sat down next to her. "So, what's it like on Earth?" Serenity turned to face him. "Not much different than here. The flowers are just as pretty." Edmund said. "Mom said there's going to be a war between here and Earth. I don't want there to be. I want to see you again." Serenity said shyly. The memory stopped and Darien opened his eyes. "Lunar, am I Edmund?" Darien asked and though he was expecting it he was still shocked when Lunar said "yes" with controlled excitement in her voice.

The inner senshi were all at Lita's studying for a test. Serena's blank look returned to normal. "It happened again. I think I need a break from studying." "Come on Serena, you allways need a break from studying. You never stay the whole time." Raye complained. "You know, Raye's right. You never stay the whole time but I think you do deserve a break." Amy said while shooting a warning glance at Raye. Serena got up and walked away. When she got to the door she turned and said "I'll see you later." to her friends and walked out the door. She decided to go to the park since it always made her feel so calm. When she got to the park she saw Darien, a gray cat close behind. She walked up to him, afraid to hear the words again that broke her heart. "Hi Darien," She said as she walked up to him. She decided not to mention the previous night. "Is this your cat?" "Ya, her name is Lunar." Darien said as he bent down to pick up his cat. When Lunar was in Darien's arms Serena studied the cat. At the sight of the crescent moon that glinted in the sun, her knees went weak. She remembered something that had gone almost unnoticed. In her second creepy dream she had, she had noticed something by Edmund's feet. It was hard to tell what it was but it almost looked like a cat. She recalled how much Edmund looked like Darien, how the cat's fur was the same color of Lunar's. Darien's voice broke the silence. "Are you OK Serena?" "I.... yes. I'm fine." Serena replied, realizing she had been lost in thought for a couple minutes staring at the cat. "I'm sorry about what I said yesterday. It's just...... my past is so, lonely. I only had one friend and he moved after a year." Darien turned his head away, not wanting sympathy. "I didn't know. How sad..... You told me your parents died but I didn't know that it would be so sad, I mean because you had your sister." Serena, who now understood why he was alone most of the time. "Darien," She said quietly. "I'll be your friend." He turned his head back and looked into her eyes. "But, we're different. I'm two years older than you....." His voice trailed off. He knew it couldn't, and wouldn't work. 'Why do I feel so strange?' The memory of Edmund and Serenity talking, when they were younger came to his mind, when something hit him on the head. He looked to the ground to see what it was but before he got the chance, somethnig heavier fell on him and Serena. Was it........ Yes! It was! It was two little girls. They both had pink hair, one had it in a high pony tail, and the other was in two pointy meatballs. The girls got up and hugged each other, scared at where they now where. The two little girls looked to be about 5 or 6 years old. The two girls got up off the ground and looked at Darien. The one with the pigtails spoke first."My name is Rini and I'm looking for Darien Chiba, do you know him?" "That's me." Darien looked at Rini. Then the girl with the pony tail spoke. "Then I guess you know Lauren." Serena looked up at Darien. Did he know something she didn't? There was a soft meow and the girls looked down to see Lunar. "Lunar!" The girl with the pony tail cried as she bent down to pet the cat. Lunar, now freaked out because a girl she had never seen before knew her. Lunar started to back away and found she had nowhere to back away to. "What's the matter Lunar? Afraid to talk to me?" Rini kneeled next to the cat. Lunar debated whether to talk or not. "I.......... Who are you?" Lunar said, forgetting Serena was there. Serena, now entirely freaked out because Lunar could talk, just like Luna, had started to back away. "My name is Kathryn." The girl with the pony tail said. "You should know that, Lunar." There was a shout from behind them and they turned to see Celena. "Get out of here! You'll get hurt!" Darien yelled at the girls. The girls, frightened, tried to run away from Celena but she sent out dark energy that caght them in a force feild. They screamed in fright and tryied to run out of the force feild but the big black dome shocked them. "Helped me!!" They screamed. Serena hesitated and looked at Darien. She had to save them. "Moon... Prism......... POWER!!!!" Serena shouted and she began to transform. When Serena was done transforming the other scouts were already there. Serena, now Sailor Moon started to get scared. She knew she had a power, all the other scouts did but she had no idea what it was. She started to get scared, knowing there was nothing she could do. "I..... Don't know what to do..." Sailor Moon started to cry. "There's nothing I can do... I'm a failure. I don't desurve this honor." Sailor Moon started to cry harder. A man in a tuxedo walked in front Sailor Moon and kneeled next to her. "Sailor Moon, look into your heart and find the warrior within you. It is your destiny." The strange man said. "Who are you?" Sailor Moon asked as she stopped crying. "I am Tuxedo Mask." He said after he stood up. Sailor Moon stood up and wipped the tears from her eyes. Then something came to her. "Moon........ Tiara........ MAGIC!!" She shouted as she threw her tiara at the dome. The dome broke to pieces and fell to the ground, then disintegrated. Rini and Kathryn ran to Sailor Moon and she hugged them tightly. "Rini, Kathryn, I'm so glad your safe." She said after she let them go. She felt a strange love for these girls, even though she had just only met them. "Thank you mama."Rini said. "Mama? I don't know where you can from but you must have a very caring mother and father." Sailor Moon looked at Celena. "I must leave you now." She said as she ran towards Celena then stopped in front of her ready to attack. "Moon....... Tiar-" But her attack was cut short by a blast from Celena. "You really think you can beat me?!" Celena shouted as she shoved Sailor Moon to the ground. "Hey! You can't get away that easy!" Sailor Venus shouted as she and the other scouts ran up to where Sailor Moon was. "Watch me!!" Celena shouted as she shot web at them. The web hit them and, losing their balance, they fell to the ground. There was a shout from behind them.
"World Shaking!!!!"
And then there was another one.
"Deep Submerge!!!"
The attacks formed one and sliced the web. Celena, now scared, dissappeared. Sailor Moon started to open her eyes and found the other scouts helping her up. "Thank you, everyone." She said once she was standing again. Rini walked up to her. "I'm from the future. The daughter of Neo Queen Serenity, you mama and King Edmund, Darien." But where had Kathryn gone? Who's daughter was she?
Lunar looked up at Darien with sad green eyes. "I never should have bothered. I'm so sorry to have hurt you." Lunar started to run away. "Lunar, Wait." Darien said as he went after the cat.
