He looked into her eyes, her innocent blue eyes. Those eyes...
they were magical. Her deep black eyelashes were giving
her eyes a mystery... a story. He wished he could stare at her
eyes and just read them… they were telling him a story....

She looked at his eyes then his lips.... she almost felt blinded
from the passion.... she waited for his kiss.... she felt their faces
getting closer and closer. They both could feel each other's hot
breath on their cold bodies. Serena looked at Darien one more
time before she closed her eyes and met her lips with his.

Darien's mind went black… this kiss wasn't like they other ones...
it was filled with passion...not of a lustful nature
.... it was pure innocence.... Serena didn't know what she was
doing. She didn't even know why she was kissing a
man, wet, head to toe, and in the middle of the night!

Serena could feel Darien's tongue on her lips, asking permission
to explore her mouth. His touch was feathery,
as he parted her lips, but Serena knew she had to stop...She didn't
want to cross the line anymore than she
already had. Before she knew it Serena broke the kiss off.

They were both out of breath and breathing heavily. Darien was in
a daze... he didn't know what was happening. One
minute he was kissing this angel in front of him and the next thing
he knew, she pulled away from him. What was she trying
to do him? He was frustrated, but only said one word to this angel,
"Why?"

"I didn't... I didn't want this to go so far. I know your type Dar.
You can have any woman. You aren't that rich, but you are rich
with your looks. I don't want to get involved with you because I
know how this is going to end...and on top of all that, this whole
thing was a mistake...a BIG mistake." It took Serena all her
courage to say just that.

She quickly left before she said, or did, anything crazy like she
just did now. Darien looked at her. Hurt... frustration...mad, is
all he read from her beautiful face.
He swam after her. When they were on land, Darien grabbed
Serena by the arm and brought her close to him, and said in
a low whisper
"My life isn't all about women, Serena. I have lots of things in my life
that I care about. Don't forget that... never forget that."

Serena looked at him...and left. He watched her leave and
cursed. He looked at her disappearing figure, and wondered
what would've happened if she stayed. She left him and all the
passions they would have had together. A brush of wind blew
on Darien's face, as he slowly walked away...


*Morning*

She looked at the sun as it rose. The sky was a different colour
of blue, orange, red and yellow. Serena always watched the
sunset, and little by little you see people going to work. She also
loves to see the birds chirp a beautiful melody.

"Serena" Serena looked behind her and there was Mina standing
there, with a big smile on her face.

"Good morning" Serena whispered.

"I saw you last night when you came in. You were late and you l
ooked tired and ... confused." Mina said as she sat beside Serena
"Is something wrong Sere? After all we are sisters in heart."

' Should I tell her??" Serena asked herself. She looked at Mina and
her sincere eyes. She sighed. She was confused. '...but I don't
want to tell her my problems.....Sere you can't be selfish!'

"No nothing is wrong. I just stayed too long in the water. And I was
sleepy too. Thanks for asking though." lied Serena.

"If you're sure, but if anything happened to you, I am right here,
do you promise me that we will never keep ANYTHING from me"

"Only if you promise." Said Serena with a smile.

"I vow on the grave of my great great great great…. Very far
down the line grandmother's grave that I will uphold this
promise to you." vowed Serena and Mina together. They
shoke hands Smiled at each other shyly and noded.

*Clang* *Clang*

Those were the sounds that the swords made as they clashed
each other.

"You know your highness, you are getting better and better by
the day," commented Malachite.

"So are you Malachite." said the prince as he strongly clashed
his sword against Malachite's sword. Malachite was surprised
from the force of the impact, that he dropped the sword.

"I will give you a tip, never ever lose your grip on the sword"
advised Darien.

"You realized that??" asked Malachite surprised.

"Of course I did, that's why you always have to keep your eyes open."
Darien said with a smile of victory.

*In another part of the practice field.*

Four girls were up the tree (again) ogling and drooling over the
cute men. "Oh look! That soldier has the most beautiful
eyes." whispered Lita, as she stared with hearts in her eyes.

"No look at this one you can almost feel his strength and on top of
all that he is such a hunk." Said Raye, with a lovesick
smile.

"You guys shouldn't we be at the palace? We have jobs to do." Said
Amy quietly.

"Oh come on Amy. They will never realize we are gone." said Mina

"Come on there must be one guy you have your eyes on." Lita said
as she held the branch.

"Well that general over there is kind of cute." whispered Amy. Her
face was turning different shades of red. The girls looked at the
man that Amy was talking about. When they realized who he was
they lost their balance, making Amy lose hers.

"Hey guys I think I heard something." said Zoysite.

All four guys looked at Zoysite and followed Zoysite to the bushes.
When they reached to the bushes All four generals
and the prince, looked behind the bushes to find four girls, that
were in a very odd position.

" Well… well… well… what do we have here?" Asked the prince,
with one eyebrow raised. By his side were the four generals.

'*gulp* We're caught! Oh God we need help.' thought Mina.
As she swore that her heart jumped out.
'Note: Kill Mina, Raye, and Lita thought Amy as she looked
at the prince, whom now seemed 12 feet tall.

'What are we going to say? Oh nooo!! Are they going to have our
heads hung?!?!?!?!' thought Lita as a funny picture came into her
mind, her head stuck on a wall.

'SOMEONE HELLLLP!!' Screamed out Raye in her mind.

"So....." said Malachite as he looked at the girls, his eyes lingered
on Mina a little longer,

"uh well... you see um…" stuttered Mina as she tried to find some
lame excuse.

"Girls…" said a voice. All five men, and the four women looked up
at whom had greeted them; the one and only Serena.

'Thank God!'

'We are saved!'

'Thank goodness.'

'Thank you thank you thank you lord!!'

Thought Amy, Mina, Lita and Raye.

' Serena..... I wonder if she will recognize me.' thought Darien.

Serena walked towards the prince and bowed deeply. All five men
nodded their heads.

"I am very sorry about all this your highness.
The girls were supposed to run an errand, but I guess they stopped
for a little break. I promise, as their head mistress that this will
never ever happen again. So I ask kindly if you will let them go."
finished off Serena with confidence, as she looked at the prince
straight in the eye.

'Hmm… nice cover.... very smart... I like that.... Especially in women.'
thought Darien as he stared into her baby blue eyes.

"We accept your apology. I expect that this will never happen again...but
alas, I guess we all need a little break once in
awhile." said Darien with a million dollar smile.

Serena looked away no emotion what so ever. She looked at the girls,
that said apologize, if you want to live.'

"Thank you your highness for accepting our deepest apology" said Amy,
with that all four girls bowed deeply.

"Apology accepted" said Darien in a deep voice.

"We should go back to work again we are very sorry." Apologized Serena
with a bow. Then she left with her four very happy friends.

When Serena knew that they were at of earshot she threatened.
"You guys are so dead!"
