Hey readers! This is my first fanfic! Yay! Okay... the usual procedure:
Sailor Moon doesn't belong to me (I wish!) and never will. It belongs to
Naoko and whatever company she granted right to. I, on the other hand
are among all those poor starving authors who write fanfiction and don't
earn money off it. Anyway... don't copy my story or you're going to pay!
(laughs hysterically).
To prevent flames on me, I just want to say that this story is inspired
by Judith Michael's "Sleeping Beauty". A good read, too! Don't worry,
You probably are sick of my babbling now, so on with the story! On yeah,
one more thing, this is rated PG13 - R (more PG13, though. Just watch
for some parts).
Falling Chapter 6 by Angelica (that's me! ^_^) sailoryaoli@hotmail.com
Rated: PG 13 - R
note : indicates thoughts
I never thought that I could lose my mind...
That I could control this...
Never thought that I'd be left behind...
That I was stronger than you, baby...
Girl is only I knew what I've done...
You know... so why don't you tell me...
And I...
I would bring down the moon and the sun...
To show how much I care...
Don't wanna lose you now...
Baby I know we can win this...
Don't wanna lose you now...
No no, or ever again...
Backstreet Boys "Don't Wanna Lose You Now"
She wanted to confront him... to ask him "why?". She wanted to get to the
bottom of this. And she'll bring the Brandy. Running up the stairs, she saw
no one. The room was dark. Where was he? The clock said 6:54. She got 6 more
minutes. She gave herself a cold smile. Grabbing a dirty glass, she opened
the bottle. The hot liquid burned her throat, but didn't ease her pain. She
started to cry softly, unaware of a dark shadow over her.
Emerald grinned. The plan worked perfectly. Making her go to a hotel
was so much easier for her. She would have never broken into Serena's apartment.
It was too elite... with guards watching 24/7. That was the special thing about
Emerald. When she watches her prey for a long time, she began to think like them.
She can picture their every move. That's what makes her so successful. Walking
silently to her back, she held out a knife. Here's to my extra 10 million.
Without hesitation, she slammed the blade into Serena's back.
"Jedite... this is so exciting! My over-protective brother will kill me
if he knew!" Rei said with a giggle. She wore a plunging V-neck dress. It
was snug and had huge slits down the sides. Jedite laughed huskily and kissed
her, a large hand rested casually on her thigh. The other had ran across
silky smooth black hair. She guided them toward the bed. A scream jolted
them to a stop.
"Jedite..." Rei whispered. He laughed at the look in her frightened eyes.
"Rei... it could be someone screaming in pleasure... just like you're
about to do," he assumed as he watched with amusement at Rei's flushed cheeks.
"Jedite," She began, violet eyes glaring with anger. He sighed in defeat.
They came to this hotel to avoid the daggers in Darien's eyes whenever they
neared.
"Okay my princess. Let's check it out... but later, you're mine!" He said
as Rei laughed again, giving him a quick kiss... or two. It came from the
room next to their own. The door was open...
"Oh my god! That's Serena!" Rei screamed in panic. There was a blond lying
in the middle of the wooden floors. But what made Rei's eyes bulge was the
pool of blood around her.
**********
He ran in the rain. As soon as Rei called him, he ran off. Grabbing his
car, he raced toward the hospital, toward his angel.
"Darien!" Lita stood up and looked at him with swollen eyes. She had
obviously been crying.
"How is she?" He asked, his voice hoarse.
"Oh Darien... it's terrible! Serena... there was a nice knife embedded
in her back when me and Jed found her!" Rei blurted out bluntly.
"I don't know what happened. We were in our room when we heard her
scream. The doctor told us that she had a slim chance of living." Jed
explained quietly.
"No! She can't die! I love her!" He cried out, burying his hands
in his face. Lita sighed softly, looking at Darien in pity. She had
knew that they loved each other, of course.
Emerald stared at the retreating ambulance. She had a scowl
etched in her face. That girl had put up a good fight. She had missed
the first strike, but jabbed the girl's forehead. Noticing that she was
unconscious, she planned to take her sweet time. But the footsteps approached.
Hastily shoving the knife in her back, she climbed out the window. She
had given the rabbit a chance to live. Grabbing her car keys, she went
to follow the ambulance. Let the rabbit die she wished as she drove
off.
The doctor walked down the hall, glad to be over with the critical
moment. To Darien, he looked like an angel of mercy... or an angel of death...
pending on what he says. His plastic tag says "Dr. Dell".
"Is she all right?" Darien demanded, eyes frantic.
"Her pulse is stabled. The knife missed her heart, but it managed to
slash an artery (I'm not really a medic know it all, so if this doesn't
make sense anatomically, don't blame me. Just think of a really bad injury
due to a knife stabbed in the back...). We gave her a transfusion and
the doctors down in Cardiology are patching the damaged vessel." The
doctor said as he watched Darien's face relax.
"Is she going to live?" Rei inquired. The doctor's face turned grave.
"The chances are not one her side." After answering their questions,
Dr. Dell left.
"Come on, Darien... the police are waiting." Rei said quietly.
I had forgotten about the police. He thought, and followed Rei.
"Thank you for everything, Mr. Shields, Ms. Shields," the officer
said with a nod. His hand moved to close his pad.
"Do you know anything?"
"Well, Mr. Shields, it was obviously an attempted murder. We found a
business card at the scene of the crime. It belonged to a James Thorten.
Do you know anything about Serena's relationship with her uncle?"
"I know she loathed him. During the funeral, they were so cruel and
icy to each other," Rei answered. The officer nodded and gave them another
"thanks".
"What do you think, Darien?" Rei murmured to her brother.
"I don't know, Rei. I don't know."
**********
He slammed his paper down angrily. During the last three hours, he had
been bombarded by reporters from everywhere. She had failed... and the public
suspects him. A picture of Serena Thorten's smiling face looked at him from
the front cover. Apparently, the attempted murder of a co-owner and a
famous former model made big news. He had told the police nothing and played
"innocent". They seemed to believe him. He scowled, wanting to hit something.
"You want to speak to me, sir?" A breathy voice said nervously. He smiled
at the yellow-green haired woman.
"Ah... Emerald... I heard what happened..." he faked a pleasant smile.
"I'm truly sorry. There was a disturbance..." Before Emerald even got to
finish, she found a bullet buried in her black heart. She choked out blood,
green eyes widened in surprise. A few seconds later, she died. He smirked, and
grabbing a nearby trash bag, he began to haul her body into it... but not before
taking off all her valuables. Why not take that diamond ring off? All the more
icing on the cake.
Meanwhile, a pair of brown eyes widened in horror. Lisa stared at her
husband. She wanted to hear the sound of her alarm clock, telling her that it
was all a dream, that her husband was a normal, charming, and gentle man. No
such luck. She hid in a small corner behind a table, hoping he won't see her.
She gasped as she watched the scene in front of her, how her husband had killed
Emerald without blinking an eye. She watched him grab a bottle of Sherry.
"Well... Emerald... what do you want to talk about?" He said to the body
bag. Lisa wanted to vomit. He was insane! She had married a lunatic. She felt
sick. She couldn't move, only listen...
"Oh... how about why you wanted to kill Serena? I never knew!" He said in
a loud female voice, pretending to be Emerald.
"Well... when she was younger, I used to come to her room. Her young lithe
body is wonderful for pleasure... I'll tell you that. When she made that wonderful
debut back to her family at the funeral, I was very surprised. I got nothing!
Not even a piece of china! Why did she ran away when she was a child, you ask?
She was scared of me. I'm glad... and disappointed. She didn't stick around for
the treatment I was going to put her through. She told her father that night.
A mere slip... but enough for suspicion. Thank god his wife, that twit Ilene
adores me. She believed me totally," He said, pretending that the garbage bag
in front of him was really Emerald, alive.
"Anyway, I hired you because since she's so young, she couldn't have
possibly created a will. If she dies, then I, her closest relative, will
get everything." Lisa wanted to faint. All this time... her husband was
a raving murderer. She wanted to run away. To escape this eternal nightmare.
"But you're dead... no one can help her now. I will win... I'll just
plan more... I will kill her by next month. When the rabbit is most vulnerable,
she couldn't notice the hawk." Cruel lips curved into a sneer, he began
to laugh once more, downing his glass of drink.
I have to tell the authorities. Lisa felt her heart lurch in her chest.
She thought he was the perfect husband, rich, handsome, famous, charming, and
kind. God she was wrong! Eight years... she had spent eight years with a man
that is a monster in heart. She shuddered... blood rushing into her ears like
a tidal wave. She felt dizzy. Her shirt is soaked with sweat, yet she felt
strangely cold. Taking a chance, she slipped out of the room when he wasn't
looked. An hour later, police sirens could be heard rushing to the James Thorten
estate.
(to be continued in chapter 7)
Next chapter is the last one, minna! I'm glad I'm done. I know I could've
stretched the story into a longer and more complicated battle between Serena
and her uncle, but frankly, I'm not ready for that kind of commitment. (I tire
of writing on one story easily). There will be much longer stories in the future,
when I get better at this. I wanna be like all my idol writers: Karisma, Lady
M. Harris, MG19, Alicia Blade, Lady S., and all those wonderful weavers out there!
(gives them envious stares). Feel free to email me! I ALWAYS write back (when I
get around checking it in the first place ^_^'). I know this chapter is kinda
short, but... I needed the cliffie for suspense! *Dodges tomatoes and other things
thrown at me*. Please forgive me? Anyway, I seem to ramble a lot today.
Okay now... I wanna give a list of everyone who's reviewed me while I was
writing this... THANKS SO MUCH! Your comments really touched me. I know there
will be more people, but I'm just listing the ones I'm seeing on my screen right
now.
