Serena was running as fast as she could down the streets of Tokyo. She running so fast she had to keep her eyes closed because the wind stung them when they were opened.

She couldn't think of anything except that she had to get to the arcade for the scout meeting as quickly as possible. She was quickly jolted back into reality when she felt something hard against the front of her body.

"OOF!" she heard someone cry out as he hit the ground. He groaned when Serena landed on his back.

"OH MY GOSH! ARE YOU O.K.?!" she asked frantically.

"I would be a lot better if you would get off of my back." she heard him say. His voice was slightly muffled due to the fact that his face was about an inch from the sidewalk.

"I am SO sorry!" she said as she was climbing up off of his back.

He stood up and turned to face Serena while dusting off his tie.

'WOW!' Serena thought to herself. 'What dazzleing blue eyes'

He looked up at her and thought to himself, 'WOW! What brilliantly blue eyes.'

"Don't worry about it." he said aloud instead.

He turned to walk towards the arcade. 'Yeah!' thought Serena, ' My typical luck.'

'I run right into the world's hunkiest guy and I plow into him. THEN! He goes exactly where I'm going! Great!'

There were six seats at the solitary table in the arcade. It was more like a bar than a table.

Amy, Lita, Raye, and Mina were already there and had their seats.

There were two seats left on the end. No make that one. The stranger with the blue eyes sat on the stool on the end leaving one left for Serena in between him and Mina.

Mina's eyes had already found the stranger and was staring at him. (typical Mina)

She turned to Serena. "Serena do you know that hottie? We saw you talking to him through the window."

"I just sorta bumped into him on the way over." Serena explained.

"JUST SORTA BUMPED INTO ME?!" She heard. The stranger who up until then had been talking to Andrew was talking to Serena.

"YOU PLASTERED MY FACE INTO THE SIDEWALK!!!!"

This had gotten all of the girls' attention.

Raye looked like someone had slapped her across the face. "DARIEN?! DARIEN SHIELDS?!" she exclaimed.

The man had the same look on his face. "RAYE?!?!?" was all he said.

Mina turned to Raye. "You mean you've kept this hottie away from me all this time?!"

"Mina, the best thing I probably ever did for you was keeping you away from this JERK!"

"Now Raye. You certainly didn't think that I was a jerk last year." said the stranger who's name was Darien. The calmness in his voice bothered Serena.

"Yeah well. Times change, people change. For example, YOU HAVE CHANGED!!" Raye told Darien.

"You're just mad because I broke your heart. You never did get over me, Raye." he said, then thought to himself , 'Man, that has GOT to be the meanest thing you ever said to a girl.'

Raye's eyes filled with tears. She leaped from her seat and tore outside the door. She ran as fast as she could and didn't stop until she hadn't gotten far enough away from the arcade. From him. From his evil comments. But it was too late. His comments had already done their damage. She let her tears fall down her cheeks. It was the first time she had ever let herself cry openly over him.

Back at the arcade all of the girls were glaring at him. The were several moments of uneasy silence. It was finally Serena who broke it.

"You know," she said looking at him. "I am SO glad I knocked you're sorry butt on the ground."
