Hi, again, it's me, Princess Tranquility. I'm sorry all the chapters are so
short, but the reason is that I did the first chapter on Friday during
school, the second on Saturday before a wedding, and this on Sunday before
church! I have a busy schedule! I'm not sure if I'll be able to get
chapters out everyday during the week, but I'll try. Thanks to everyone who
reviewed my story! It's because of you that I'm continuing this story! I'm
still not sure who I'm going to put Serena with, so any suggestions are
welcome. Thanks again, and enjoy chapter 3!!!!!!!!!!

Serena woke up early that morning. She wanted to be ready when Pluto came to take her to see her mother. She stretched, then got up and went to her closet to pick out something to wear.
'Well, it will have to be something nice, since I am going to see my mother.' She thought to herself. Serena pulled out her ballroom dress, but quickly put it back in the closet. It brought back too many now painful memories of Darien. Finally she decided to wear one of her school uniforms.
"I'll just have to transform when I get there." She said and went downstairs to eat breakfast. No one was awake yet, so she quickly ate her breakfast and went back upstairs. Pluto did not make her wait long. At exactly 11:00, a swirling black and purple vortex appeared and Pluto stepped out.
"Hello Princess. Are you ready?" Pluto asked, not wanting to rush Serena.
"Hai, as ready as I'll ever be. And I've told you before, don't call me Princess!" Serena replied, irritation and a twinge of anger in her voice. Pluto did not respond to the last comment and opened another portal. They stepped through it into the Time Chamber, which housed the Time Gates. Pluto led Serena through a maze of hallways to a small room and told her to lie down.
"But Pluto, why do I need to lie down? I've never had to before." Serena questioned.
"All will be revealed when you speak with your mother. As you might have guessed, when you go, you will be transformed. I will guard your body while you speak with her." Pluto said impassively.
"Thank you Pluto" she replied. Then there was a brilliant flash of light, and Serena stood there, a beautiful gown gracing her slim body and wings fanning the air behind her. She had been transformed into Princess Serenity. A few feet in front of her stood her mother, the queen. Before serenity could say anything, her mother spoke.
"My dear daughter, I am so sorry for what has happened. If I had been watching over you more carefully, this would never have happened. It is all my fault, and I am truly sorry."
"Oh mother, It's not your fault. It was a freak accident. You couldn't have done anything. Now, Pluto told me you wanted to tell me something." Serenity told her kindly, trying to reassure herself more than her mother.
"Oh yes. Well, since you cannot marry him, I am sending you to another dimension with your sister to-"
"NANI? But mother, I don't *have* a sister!" Serenity almost screamed, cutting her mother off.
"Yes, my daughter, you do. Pluto will explain all. You will go to the other dimension for as long as I see fit. You must leave now." The queen said gently.
"Yes mother." Serenity said. Then, in another flash of light, she was back in the room with Pluto standing over her.
