Runaway Princess 9

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. So don't sue me, okay?

Author's Notes: Thanks for the reviews minna! I was kind of worried about that last chapter. I hope that the story is more understandable now. Anyway, don't forget to READ and REVIEW! Or else, I won't finish my story…

Also, sorry I didn't mention some of the characters for a while, I'll try. If your wondering, all the Z Warriors and Scouts were there watching Serena, Android 18 included. Chi-Chi and Bulma were left behind.

Also, I want to say thanks and answer some questions to some people:

Anime Princess: Thanks a ton! You always review to my stories and stuff and I appreciate it!

hime_sama16: Well, in this chapter you'll find out some of the answers to your questions. But as for Goku coming back from the Cell Games, I'm not really following the actual story of Dragonball Z, though I watch the TV show. So, let's just pretend Goku never died, kay? ^^

Animeangel945: Yes, I do watch the TV show and thanks for the review.

raschelle: Sorry, there will probably not be any hentai in this story.

SailorNova: Thanks for the suggestion, read the story and I think you'll be kind of happy if you want Rini to change.

As for everyone else who received, thanks a ton!! I really appreciate it!

And now, on with the show!!

Runaway Princess 9

"So meatball head, are you ready?" Darien asked coldly.

"I've been waiting for the day I could kick your ass. I will NEVER forgive you for what you did to me," Sailor Cosmos said in an icy tone.

"I'm so scared," Darien said sarcastically. "Don't think I'm going to be easy on you if you start crying like a baby."

Sailor Cosmos smirked. "I didn't want you to be. Don't think I'm going to be easy on you just because you're you."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Shut up and fight," Sailor Cosmos snapped. Let's get this over with.

"My pleasure." With that, Darien charged at Sailor Cosmos.

"Go Serena! Kick his ass!" the Scouts called.

Darien kept trying to punch Sailor Cosmos but she kept dodging. She then sent a blast to him but he got away just in time.

"I never knew Serena could fight like that," Amara said, shocked.

"I never knew she could fight!" Raye said.

"You can do it Serena!" Trunks shouted. Then he said softly, "I know you can. I believe in you."

"Oh no! Serena!" Gohan shouted. Darien sent a blast towards Sailor Cosmos. She couldn't dodge it, it was too close.

She stared at the blast coming her way. At the last minute, she held out her hand. A shield protected her from the blast and made it go back to Darien. He wasn't expecting that to happen so he didn't move. The blast hit him.

"ARGH!" Darien said, crying out in pain.

Sailor Cosmos smirked. "Hit by your own blast. Pathetic."

"Why you little bitch!" Darien screamed.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk," Sailor Cosmos scolded. "Such vulgar language."

"Shut up!" Darien growled and he started blasting her like crazy. "Take that you stupid meatball head!"

Sailor Cosmos smiled. He's so angry now that he can hardly think straight. That's my advantage. "Is that the best you can do?" she taunted.

"SHUT UP!" Darien roared and he was so blinded by anger that he ran up to Sailor Cosmos and tried to punch her with all his might. She easily dodged.

"You're no longer a challenge Darien," Sailor Cosmos said. "Just give up."

"NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!" Darien hollered. Dark energy swirled around him. Threads of dark energy shot out from him to all the Senshi, and started choking all of them except for Sailor Cosmos.

"Oh no!" Sailor Cosmos gasped. The scouts and the guys. I must help them! "Darien, let them go!"

"Why should I princess? I mean after all, aren't you the almighty Sailor Cosmos now? Why don't you help them yourselves?" Darien said sarcastically.

Sailor Cosmos glared at Darien. She felt energy building up inside of her.

Trunks felt it too. He struggled to look at her. He saw her, standing alone, with fury blazing in her eyes. Is the energy inside of her hate? Could it be that she hates Darien so much that she's creating dark energy? She thought. But he felt the warmth; the purity of all the energy. No…it must be her love for everyone that is powering her up…I want to help her! He started concentrating on Sailor Cosmos and tried to send some of his energy to her.

She felt the energy being added to her. Thank you Trunks. "Darien, I shall defeat you!" Sailor Cosmos shouted. "On behalf of the Moon, Earth, and the entire Cosmos, I will not let you win!"

Darien scoffed. "Nice speech meatball head. But how do you plan to do that?"

Sailor Cosmos took out the Silver Crystal.

"That stupid crystal of yours won't defeat me!" Darien said, sneering.

Sailor Cosmos remained quiet. She lifted the crystal into the air. Suddenly, her pure heart appeared. It went into the silver crystal.

"Wh-what's happening?" Michiru gasped.

"Why did her pure heart come out?" Mina wondered.

"Wait a sec…if her pure heart's out, doesn't that mean she'll die!?" Raye shouted.

Serena…what in the world are you doing? Goku wondered.

"Silver…" The crystal starting glowing brightly.

"Cosmos…" Sailor Cosmos stared at Darien. This is for everything you've done Darien, all the pain and suffering.

"Purity…" The crystal became brighter and brighter until everyone, including Darien, had to shield their eyes.

"POWER!" An enormous blast of light shot out from the crystal, heading straight for Darien.

"I-I can't see!" he exclaimed, for the blast was also very bright, brighter than the sun. "This isn't right, I'm not supposed to go like this!"

The blast engulfed Darien. As soon as it did, the blast minimized into a small ball of light and it floated over to Sailor Cosmos.

"What happened?" Amy asked.

"I-is Darien dead?" Gohan wondered.

"Serena! Are you okay?" Trunks exclaimed.

Sailor Cosmos turned to the Scouts and Z Warriors and smiled. "Darien's in here," she said, holding the ball of light up high. "I didn't want to kill him, it'd be like sinking down to his level. So, I just trapped him into here, where he'll sleep forever and never be able to wake up." Her pure heart came out of the silver crystal and went inside her body. The silver crystal returned to her broach.

"MOMMY!" Rini shouted. She ran over to Sailor Cosmos and gave her a big hug.

"Rini…" Sailor Cosmos said, smiling. She de-transformed into Serena.

"Mommy…" Suddenly, Rini started glowing.

"What's going on?" Everyone's eyes focused on the little girl who was still hugging her mother while glowing. When she stopped glowing, everywhere gasped.

Her hair was now a very light purple, with a sort of silver hint. Her eyes were blue, and they looked just like her mother's.

"Rini…you changed," Serena gasped. But why…unless…

"It's probably because the future changed," Hotaru said. "Since now, Rini has a different father. And considering her looks, her father must be…" Everyone turned to a blushing Trunks.

"Hi daddy!" Rini said, smiling and she ran to give Trunks a hug as well.

"So, the future changed huh?" Serena said. "At least it's for the better, " she said, winking at Trunks. He blushed even harder.

"So Rini, what's the future like now?" Mina said, grinning.

"Yeah, do you know what changed?" Lita asked.

"But wait…" Amy interrupted. "If the future changed, does Rini still have her memories of what happened with Darien?" They turned to the now-changed Rini for her answer.

"I still remember," Rini said. "But I have new memories as well, of what the future is now like. My mommy and daddy rule over Crystal Tokyo still, and everyone loves them. All of you guys are living at the palace. In the future, you guys didn't change much. Goku, you're still funny and goofy. Gohan, you still study. But you get a little brother."

"What?" Gohan exclaimed and he turned to his parents.

"Uh…"

Rini saved them by saying, "Vegeta's still rude but he's can be kind of nice." She giggled. "Especially if Bulma or mom's around."

Vegeta grumbled something about "stupid women."

"Well Small Lady," Trista said gently. "It's time for you to return home."

"All right." Rini turned to Serena. "I love you mommy."

"I love you too Rini," Serena said softly. Mother and daughter embraced, hugging each other like they'd never let go.

"Bye daddy," Rini said, turning to Trunks now.

"Goodbye…daughter," Trunks said. He and Rini also hugged, and Trunks smiled knowing he was going to Serena's husband.

Rini then hugged each of the Scouts and Z Warriors, including Vegeta. Then she ran up to Trista, who had transformed into Sailor Pluto. "Bye everyone! See you later!" Rini called and she and Sailor Pluto stepped into a portal which would take the to the future.

"Bye!" Serena called, and the others followed suit.

When the portal closed, there was a moment of silence. Then, Serena started laughing.

"What's so funny woman?" Vegeta demanded.

"Well…*laugh* I just realized…*laugh* that if Trunks is Rini's father…*laugh* then you're her…*peals of laughter* GRANDPA!"

"WHAT?" Vegeta exclaimed.

"And you're my father-in-law!" She then stopped laughing. "Ugh, you're my father-in-law!"

"And I'm your mother-in-law!" Bulma and Chi-Chi ran up to them.

"We were watching the whole time. You kicked butt Serena!" Chi-Chi cheered.

"Chi-Chi!" Goku exclaimed.

"Mother!" Gohan added, shocked.

"What?" Chi-Chi said, trying to act innocent.

"Good job Serena," Piccolo said.

"Yeah, you did good," Tien said.

"Thanks," Serena said. "But Trunks helped."

"Hey Trunks, you're pretty lucky man," Yamcha said, grinning.

"Yeah, snagging a girl like Serena," Krillin said, thus receiving a glare from Eighteen. "He he…sorry?"

Serena smiled. I'm so happy to have friends like them.

"Let's go celebrate!" Mina shouted.

"YEAH!"

So, what'd think? Keep those reviews coming. Also, to all those whom have been affected by the attacks on America, I hope everything will get better and I wish you the best of luck in the future.
