The seed fluttered to
serena aimlessly. It paused at the tip of her nose. Then
without warning a golden light engulfed Serena. "SERENA!"
Darien yelped getting to his feet. He rAn toward the beam,
but at his attempts the light grew brighter.

He brung his arms to his face to protect him from
the blinding light. The light flowed away thoroghly.
Serena's body glittered gold and silver. Her eyes slowly
moved and then opened. Revealing bloodshot eyes. The
sky blue color no longer glistened or twinkled and
her golden ankle length hair had lost its shine.
Her color slowly began to show in her face but not very well.
"Oh, god Serena."

The blonde glanced around and then at Darien. She said
nothing. Her wristis hurt incredibly from the rope burns,
but she didn't show it. Looking at Darien a single tear
slid down her cheek. But she still said nothing. "IMPOSSIBLE!"
Galaxia screamed. Serena moved her gaze immediately to
Galaxia, her eyes flared with fury. They stared at
eachother angrily. Then without warning the ropes disappeared,
and Serena began to fall to the ground, yet she still didn't scream.
She landed on her feet and slowly began to stand straight.
Her rope burns looked raw and painful. But if it really did
Serena showed no sign of pain.

The scouts watched in amazement. The Serena from yesterday would of
fell on her face and cried about it. But this Serena,was different.
in a way she wasn't Serena. She was a new person. Darien
ran up to his love and grabbed her arms and pulled them toward him,
she didn't resist. He examined the wounds cautiously."You'll be fine."
He said with a sigh a gladness and relief. He hugged Serena but he
didn't recieve a hug back. The blonde stared daggers at Galaxia.

"SERENA!" Darien yelled. Serena didn't wince or move she just
stared. She pushed Darien aside and stepped forward. "LET THE
BATTLE BEGIN!" Galaxia cried loudly. Serena ripped
her broach off her bow she rose it high above her head and
yelled triumphantly "MOON" Serwna xould feel the power rush
into her immediately. Although she never felt THIS power
beofre. Memories of the moon Kingdom returned. She remebered
her training. The Broach floated from her hand off into
the air.
"BUT HOW YOU DON"T HAVE THE CRYSTAL! I DO!" Galaxia screamed.
Serena smiled and finally spoke. "That's where you're
wrong." She taunted. There was a blaze of light as the Imperium
Crystal glittered in the broach. "ETERNAL" she continued.
The blaze stopped and her new broach was revealed the heart with
the golden wings. It seemed so familiar to her. The Scoust gasped,
along with the Darien and Galaxia, as Serena took a hold of it and
held it into the air above her head.
"POWER!" Serena shouted triumphantly, feeling the power wrap around
her. The feeling of old, the power inside suddenly released. She
felt her wings form, the crescent moon forming on her forehead
as the transformation ended and she stuck her pose.

"You have destroyed my happiness for me, you have
hurt me, my friends and my love. You will NEVER be forgiven for
this!" Galaxia took a step back and gasped. Eternal
Sailor Moon rose her hands high and closed her eyes. She seemed
to be consentration on something. A glittery form began to
create at her gloved hands. And soon what was seen, was
the legendary Eternal Tier.

"What is THAT?" Jupiter asked in awe. Sailor Moon ignored
Jupiter's question, and brung the tier high in the air.
Galaxia seemed befuddled at this all. She just stood
there as a statue, watching her defeat's arrival.
"STARLIGHT HONEYMOON THERAPY KISS!" Galaxia had no time to
even scream as the energy beam shot into her.
In an instant the once evil being was nolonger there.
The battle was over. At the defeat, Serena's broach
opened revealing the Silver crystal, a light gave
off the crystal and covered Serena whole. The scouts
and Darien sheilded there eyes. When they were able
to see again Eternal Sailor Moon nolonger stood there, but a
mere stranger, with the most elegancy and beauty ever
imaginable.

He golden hair fell to the floor and her dress shimmered of
pure white and gold. Her wings folded about her making her
look like an angel. The crescent moon symbol shone
brightly on her forehead. The future was now. They
watched Serena, or Neo-Queen Serenity as she now was, with
awe. It was amazing.

Then without warning Serenity collapsed to the floor.
Her beautiful outfit faded and returned to her original
clothes. Her grip loosened on
an object she held in her hands and the object fell out.
The broach, the old one that belonged to Super Sailor Moon.
She was alive but barely.

-----------------------------------@-

Serena slowly opened her eyes, she felt extremely weak.
She turned her head to the left with much difficulty.
She could make out an IV machine. She turned to the other side
and noticed. Needles
filing out of a machine and being inserted to her arms.
She looked up at the ceiling and closed her eyes. She didn't
want to make sense of what happened. Not now at least.

---------------------------------@-

Darien folded his hands under his chin. Naxt to him sat the
girls. "I hope she's ok." Amy commented in a teary voice.
"Don't we all." Raye replied. There was a moment
of silence, but Lit spoke "Why do you think
that happened back there?" She asked referring to the
battle. Darien shrugged his shoulders.

Behind him he heard someone call his name. The nurse. He
rose from his seat and walked up to her. "Mr. Sheilds?"
She asked. "Yes." "Um, you're wife..." Darien cocked
an eyebrow at the lady. She wore her gray stringy hair
back in a bun and she wore coke-bottle glasses. "She is
you're wife...right?" She asked. Darien thought for a
moment then replied with a smile. "Yes, yes she is."

He could hear the girls gasp with surprise. "OK? Anyhow,
you're wife would like to see you." She commented. Darein
nodded and followed the nurse to Serena's room. She
opened the door and let Darien walk in, then she shut it again.
Serena laid in bed talking to Luna. "...Serena, you can't
transform to Eternal Sailor Moon anymore." Luna said sternly.
"Why?" "Because that transformation wasn't meant to be...yet.
In a couple of years though don't worry." Luna continued as she
noticed Darein. "I'll be off now." The cat smiled at Darien,
jumped off the chair beside the bed and leaped out the window in
which she had came in.

Darien took Luna's seat. "Luna explained the deal with me
fainting like that. She said that I wasn't meant for that
transformation yet. I was to weak. I gotta' wait."
Serena exolained weakly. "So I heard." Darien replied.
He gripped her hand tightly. "I'm so happy
you're ok." He said as his throat began to tighten, and his
eyes began to turn glassy. Serena smiled.

"I love you." She stated. "I love you too." For a long
moment there was silence. They were bothi thinking. Then
Darien spoke. "Marry me Serena." He could feel Serena jump
ith surprise at his question. "I know you're
still in highschool. I will wait, if you want I can marry you
in 2 years, 3 or 4 even 5. I'll wait for you Serena. Just say yes."
He pleade as tears slid down his cheek.

She brung his face down to hers and kissed him. Their lips
parted but not very far. She murmmered against his lips
"I'd love to marry you...more than anything in the world."
They smiled at eachother and kissed again.
Everything was back to perfect.
