Okay, I got the inspiration for this story from an episode of "Touched
by an Angel" so bear with the sappy plot line. The idea had also been
culminating in my brain for the past two months so I decided to start
writing it down. I hope you enjoy the story, if you really like
Endymion and Serenity together forever, stick around to hear the last
part of this story. I love to hear from all of you, flames, comments,
suggestions on how I can write better, how to get a boyfriend,
whatever. I love hearing from people.

The Ultimate Betrayal
By: Star Angel and Callista Matthews

A twenty-two year old Serena Shields lay on the bed, looking out into the
moonlight. 'Oh, Selene, nothing can destroy the happiness that I feel right now.'
Serena thought. The moonlight glistened in the form of moonbeams going
into the room. The moon occupying the scene outside the window as if
watching over it's mistress carefully. Serena turned and looked at the
man next to her. His deep pools of azure eyes closed by heavy lids,
he was not wearing any shirt under the covers and his well-built
chest showed signs of being a warrior.

"I love you very much, my husband, my life, my prince.
I always have and I always will. Nothing will ever separate us again.
They would have to kill me to get to you." Serena whispered softly to
the sleeping figure. 'So many battles, so much pain. Can we now live
our lives as it way meant to be? Can we now have the peaceful future
we have always fought for?'

"Honey, you should get some sleep. We have to make rounds at
the hospital tomorrow. You're stressed out and you need your energy."
Darien called to his wife sleepily. "You are exhausted from our
activities the past weekend." Darien grinned.

"Hmmm...I know. I was just reminiscing, taking a walk down
memory lane." Serena replied absently.

"Care to talk about it?" Now Darien was concerned and fully
awake.

"When I was first Sailor Moon, I never had the time to train
properly to become the warrior everyone expected me to. I never had
that adjustment period to get my priorities straight. It's ironic
actually because when Luna first came to me, she told me I was Sailor
Moon and my job was to protect the Moon Princess. It never occurred to
either of us that she had just given me the tool to protect myself. During
that first fight, the first time I ever saw you as Tuxedo Mask, I
subconsciously vowed to be the best warrior I can be regardless of the
circumstances. We were fighting for a peaceful future and I was
wondering if we can ever taste that peaceful future for ourselves?"

Darien gently took her chin into his hand and forced her to
look at him. "Serena, sweetheart, that's something we have to keep
fighting for and since there hasn't been any monster attack since
the day we got married, I wouldn't worry about it. I love you, and
besides, I like the way to look as Sailor Moon. That mini-skirt
looks very gorgeous on you but then again, anything you wear looks
gorgeous on you." Darien told her softly. He slowly led his lips to
hers and kissed her gently. Kissing her never bored Darien and he
never gets tired of them. Everytime he kissed her was like the first
time. Every time they made love, it was like the first time. Soon the
kiss went deeper and Serena and Darien decided to let the discussion
end there.

The Next Morning:

"Phew! My rounds at the hospital are so tiring. Thanks for
coming to see me guys, I'm just so exhausted," Serena sighed. "I never
even got to sleep last night from..." Serena slowly blushed and the
girls giggled.

"I'd bet you were tired. Just from staying home you get
tired don't you Serena?" Mina giggled and Serena blushed even more.

"Serena, you're twenty-one and have been married for only
a month. You're hardly even out of the honeymoon stage. You shouldn't
have to blush." Ami said logically. Serena and the girls were headed
to Darien's section of the hospital where he worked as a resident
doctor. Serena worked in the Pediatrics Ward of the hospital while a
twenty-six year old Darien worked in the Cardiology Wing of the
hospital. He was always an expert in matters of the heart.

"I know, and it's been blissful, the past month. I've been
waiting for this time in my life for a thousand years now. Did you
guys feel the same way?" Serena asked the girls. The Scouts have long
been married before Serena and Darien took their turn down the aisle.
Raye was the first of the Scouts to get married to Chad Gallagher, to the
surprise and delight of Serena. Next was Sailor Jupiter's turn when
she got married to Ken Turner, her best friend a month later. Sailor Mercury's
wedding was a quiet affair that took place in the beach when she
married their psychic friend Greg Umino. Sailor Venus, the leader of the
Inner Sailor Scouts during the Silver Millenium was next to the last
of the Scouts to walk down the aisle. Serena was the maid of honor at
the wedding when Darien was the best man. Mina turned and walked down
the aisle and the priest proceeded to join Mina and Andrew James in wedded
bliss.

"Sure we do, as much as we missed being normal, I'd never trade
it for the world. You should have seen Andrew's face when I told him
that I was Sailor Venus! He let out a scream that could have woken up
the dead!" Mina laughed hysterically.

"Same with me but Ken just fainted out cold on the carpet."
Lita smiled.

"Greg already knew so he didn't have a problem with it."
Ami added.

"First thing Chad said to me was why the skirts were so short!"
Raye giggled.

"Okay, we're here. Be quiet because I want to surprise him."
Serena shushed the noisy Scouts. What they saw surprised them instead
as Serena opened the door... To be continued.

Well? How'd you like it so far? Big cliffhanger isn't it? I'll have
the next part up in two weeks max. I still have other stories to
brainstorm for. Later =)=)=)=)
LadyAngelStar

I'm going to be in BIG trouble! This story is just dripping with
controversy and I'm going to be in HOT water. DON'T kill me yet!
Angel started this one first and I'll be continuing it to ensure
as much "happily-ever-after" there is after an infidelity. *gulps*
