Don't own Sailor Moon....Now lets get to the story!!!! lol
________________________________________________________________

Serena sat reading on the couch, when a firm nock on her door pulls her from it.
Slightly annoyed at being disturbed in the middle of a good part in her romance
novel, she pulls herself off the couch and answers the door in her long P.J. top with
hello kitty on them. To her surprise it was Andrew.

"Andrew what are you doing here?" She asked.

"What did you do you your hair Serena?" He asked shock crossing his face.

Her hair was now dark red with gold highlights and hung just above her delicate
shoulders with a slight wave. The new stile looked grate on her but it was such a
sudden change. If this hadn't been her apartment and if he hadn't looked into her
deep blue eyes first he would of though he had the wrong place. Serena raises an
eyebrow but lets him in.

"What you don't like it?" She asked flatly.

"No it looks great on you. I just hope it wasn't because Darin was being an ass."
Andrew said.

Removing his shoes he heads strait for her kitchen and opened the fridge door.
Despite a confused Serena following him. It was what he expected; it was almost
empty only juice, some old soup and some other stuff in the far back.

"You haven't been eating have you." Andrew stated as he faced her.

"What makes you say that?" Serena said looking away.

"I've been eating out lately."

Andrew raises an eyebrow.

"Some how I don't believe you. You're a bone rack."

Andrew walks into her surprisingly clean room and pulls out a pare of pants and
shirt. It wasn't only because she lost so much weight, but she was hiding scrapes
and bruises from him too.

"Get dressed, I'm taking you out and making sure you eat."

**~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~**

Andrew's hand was rapt around Serena's small wrist as they exited the
apartment, despite her disagreements. Most of the way was quiet until they turned
down the next street and ran in to Mina and Lita. Both girls giving Andrew and
Serena strange looks as he still hand her wrist in his hand.

"Where are you two going in such a hurry?" Mina asked.

Lita looks at Serena.

"Who's your friend?" Andrew blinked in surprise they didn't recognize Serena.

Realizing that's what Serena had hoped for, he quickly came up with a response.

"She's Reta's younger cousin Nena. She's in Tokyo for a couple of days."

Both of the girls say hi in unison.

"Sorry we can't stay and chat, Reta's waiting."

With that Andrew continues to pull her down the street and
around the corner.

"Andrew you're pinching my wrist." She growls as she manages to pull her hand
free.

"I don't kneed any ones help, I can take care of myself."

Andrew stops and faces her.

"Oh really? Then what's this from?" He said as he lightly touches her torso.

Serena noticeably winces, and steps back from him.

"I tripped on the way home the other day." She responded threw her teeth.

"Why are you so concerned for my well being? No one else
seems to give a damn."

Andrew places a hand on her shoulder.

"Just because the world seems to turn its back on you it doesn't mean that every
one has. Please let me help you."

Serena sighs and slowly nods as she fallows him the rest of the way to his
apartment. Just as they round another corner and his apartment was in view, a
Youma, attacking a group of teens, caught their attention. Serena reaches for her
locket but then she realized that she had thrown it at Ray. She would have to get
these teens out of this predicament some other way.

Could her life get any worse? With her resent luck most likely.

Andrew pushes her behind him self.

"Hey pick on some one your own size!" Serena looks at Andrew and places a
hand on his shoulder.

"Andrew don't!" She pleaded.

The last thing she wanted was Andrew getting hurt because he was trying to be
courageous against unbeatable odds. Seeing the Youma run towards them firing
rope like appendages at them she pushes Andrew to the side. The appendages rap
around her waist and whined their way all the way up to her throat. Next thing she
knew she found her self-being dragged towards the Youma until she's two feet away
from it. Before she had a chance to become reoriented electricity shoots through
the rope and slowly begins draining her life energy.

Serena cries out.

"Andrew RUN!!!!" Serena closes her eyes against the pain.

"Find my cousin Rini!"

Andrew shakes his head, not wanting to leave her with this monster.

"Please! She knows how to find the Sailor Scouts!"

Reluctantly he nods his head and races off to find Rini. Serena grins at the monster
as she concentrates all of her power. As her power levels started to rise a crescent
moon forms on her forehead, a eerie soft moonlight blue surrounding her body.

She may not be Sailor Moon any more but she still had mystical power in her
blood, this Youma would be dusted one way or another. Even if she had to go
down with it. Threw the haze that now clouded her mind Serena could have sworn
that she could hear Sailor Pluto. Seconds later the rope that had rapt its self around
her shatters. Serena watches her surroundings in slow motion; a wave of energy
explodes from her body and hits the Youma, turning it to dust. Her surroundings
spin around in her once more, everything goes black.
