Chapter 3 The Meeting
After school, Serena headed off to Raye's temple. She walked slowly,
still sad about this morning. Serena didn't even care if Raye was mean to her. Let her. Serena would either
a) ignore her or
b) yell some witty things right back at her.
It depended how she was feeling, or how bad Raye's remarks were.
Ok, now Serena felt dumb. She had a whole plan on what she was gonna do when Raye said stuff to her. Serena would just ignore her. That's it.
When Serena got their, the group was already talking as usual.
"Detention again Serena? Well, that's ok. We were, uh, just talking about how smart you are during battles!" Raye said, warmly. A little too warmly.
"Not that you aren't smart out of battle!" Lita replied.
"Yes, you're very smart!" Amy exclaimed.
"You're such a nice person! I'm sure Mol..... I mean, anyone would like to be your friend!" Mina said very enthusiastically.
"Mina........" Luna growled.
"Oh, I get it. Luna told you guys about Molly. You guys were trying to be nice to me. I thought Raye was going wacko on me! So Raye, give me your meanest words. It seems to be my day for harsh words......" Serena whined.
"Oh Serena, you're no fun when you're down. Besides, guess what? Darien told me to tell you that he wanted to get you a sundae after the meeting, at the new ice cream parlor! I hear it's really good! He said he would meet you their at 5:30, k?" Mina explained.
"Oh goodie! A sundae! Oh, Darien is so great!" Serena squealed.
"See! That's the Serena we know and love!" Lita exclaimed.
"Ok, enough chit chat, we need to talk Sailor business! There's a new enemy. They call themselves The Sin Keepers. You couldn't even take a guess at how powerful they are. I don't know when they will start to appear, but I'm thinking soon. I want you all to be on guard." Luna explained.
"We will." They all said together.
"And Serena, come here a moment. I want to talk to you alone." Luna called out.
"Coming." Serena replied.
"Serena, you are going to have another transformation. I don't know when, but soon. You have become very powerful, and I'm proud of you. But, I'm also scared. I don't know how you and the scouts are going to get through this. I know it sound pessimistic, but you have know idea how strong these Sin Keeper creatures are." Luna said in a worried tone.
"Oh Luna. You are being a pessimist. We'll be fine, we have always been ok before, right? So, just be happy, k?" Serena replied.
"I know but..." Before Luna could finish she was interrupted by a voice that was music to Serena's ears.
"Hey, Serena, never thought you'd be late for ice cream, or can you not make it tonight?" he said in kind of a weird tone.
"Oh Darien! I'd never be busy when there's ice cream sundaes involved!" Serena giggled. "And uh, Darien, what's wrong with your voice? It sounds, creepy."
"Why, whatever do you mean, meat ball head?" he asked.
"Oh, haven't heard that name in a long time! Heh heh heh..... don't say it anymore k? It hurts my delicate feelings." She sniffed.
"Yeah, whatever..." Darien said as the two walked off.
"I feel an evil force here." Raye whispered enough for the others to hear.
"But who, Raye? The only ones here are us." Amy asked.
"Yeah, and Darien." She replied.
j
"Oh Darien, it was so nice of you to take me here....... Darien?" Serena asked. She felt like he was some where else, staring off in to space.
"Huh? Oh, uhh, yea, whatever..." Darien replied, then he looked at his wrist, and mumbled something loud enough for Serena to hear, "Hey, you ready? I'm gettin' tired waitin' with this girl......", he said in a rather evil voice.
"Darien!? What did you say??" Serena asked, her voice a little heart broken.
"Hey, keep it down, I'm gettin' a headache. Why don't you get yourself an ice cream cone. And get one for me while your at it,"Darien replied, sounding cruel, again.
"But, Darien, umm, I thought you were buying..." Serena started to say.
But before she could finish, she heard a voice coming from Darien's wrist,"Yesssss, start nowwww......" hissed a male's voice.
Then, Darien got up from his chair, put his arms in a cross, then passed out. Seconds after, an evil creature stood up, looking exactly like Darien. Same brown hair, and body build. Except, his eyes filled with fury, and his kind smile no longer a smile, only a wicked grin.
"Darien, no! What's wrong with you?" Serena cried.
"Nothing blondie! Only here to get your worthless pure thoughts!" He cackled, and tossed her to the tiled floor.
"Huh? Pure thoughts? What are they? Oh no! What do I do? " Serena wondered aloud, 10,000 thoughts appearing in her head at once.
The ice cream parlor was filled with shrieks as the creature took people's 'Pure Thoughts'. Serena tried to change into Sailor Moon, but, no good. The evil Darien had hit her so hard on the linoleum floor that she ached all over.
"Uhhh, what is this? Are these the Sin Keepers Luna told me about?" Serena whimpered. "And what happened to Darien? He turned into a monster....."
"Hey blondie! Your turn!" the evil Darien called out.
"Who are you!? You're not my dear Darien!" Serena sobbed.
"These arrows will pierce your minding, causing all your pure thoughts to be turned into evil ones!"
Two arrows shot from his hands, headed straight towards Serena........ and suddenly, out of nowhere, a prince, or something of the sort, grabbed the arrows before they hit her.
" Tell me. How could you think of harming this beautiful woman? I get back at you with the power of love. Passionate Care Flare!" the prince cried out.
"Haha! Think you can get rid of me that easy? Guess again. Black Hate Overwhelm!" Black hollered.
"Arghhhh!!!!!!!!" the prince cried as he fell to his knees. "What is your power? So strong....... nothing...... nobody...... have I ever fought....... was this..... No! I won't let you do this. Not now.... not ever! Serenity! Use this crown! Place it on your head and call out Sailor Moon Forever! Defeat the enemy! I will return for you my love! Good Bye, for now!" then, in a blink of an eye, he was gone, and the crown, the sparking golden crown, lay on the floor.
"Who, what was that???" Serena asked, hoping the evil Darien would know.
"I don't know and I don't care! He can have you! I'm with the enemy now, forever! Let's finish it off! Serenity!" Black snickered.
"What? No! You can't mean that! No! Fine...... let's finish this!"
Serena placed the golden crown on her head and called out "Sailor Moon Forever!!!!!"
The warmth surrounding her body was incredible..... she felt so powerful, so strong....... She looked down at her uniform, which was now silver and gold........ with glitter in her hair, and a crown on her sparkling blonde hair.
"Moon....Kingdom..... Golden Light ....Surround!" Serena calmly called out.
"Aaaaaahh! King, I'll be back at head quarters soon! This isn't nearly over Sailor Girl!" Black made sure to say before he vanished.
Seconds after Black Prince left, Forever Sailor Moon went back to being Serena.
Now Serena could only wonder. What was wrong with Darien? Would he survive? Who was that man? The prince? He was so handsome... his bold hair..... his golden cape...... Serena was in love..... no. She had to stop. What was she thinking? Darien was her one and only, and she would save him. But..... there was the subject about the prince saying, "I will return for you, my love!" What was that about? Serena couldn't wait to tell Luna and the other scouts.
After school, Serena headed off to Raye's temple. She walked slowly,
