Thanks goes out to my two beta readers, Sodina and Sabby. Thanks girls! I really appreciate it! Hugs and chocolate to you for putting up with my junk! I love ya!

Disclaimer: Hey, I don't own Sailor Moon or Gundam Wing, (which won't come in until the end of chapter 2.) So, don't blame me of doing anything, (not that you really would,) because I have an AWESOME lawyer! Besides, all I own is this computer, and if you take it away, I will kill you.

For the Love of Serenity PROLOUGE

Serena was sitting in class doodling. She knew she should be paying attention, but it was just so BORING!
"If the integer is alone..." the teacher droned on.
SIGH 'Gods, this is stupid and dull and lame and...' Serena thought.
Suddenly, an announcement came on over the PA System. "Teachers, please turn your TV's on to channel 7 now. Thank you." The principal said urgently.
The teacher stopped the lesson and turned the TV on. By now even Serena was paying attention.
"A second plane just crashed into the World Trade Center in America..." the TV reporter said in monotone. 'Why do TV people never show any emotions? It's like they just don't care.' Serena thought.
If anyone had been talking earlier, they certainly weren't now.
School was canceled for the rest of the day in respect for the people who died.

As soon as Serena got home, she called all her friends, and they decided to get together.
"Can you believe it?"
"It's HORRIBLE!"
"Those poor people!"
"Escuse me everyone." Trista said. "Uh... escuse me? Girls? Hello? ESCUSE ME!!!!"
Everyone shut up.
"Thank you. As I was GOING to say, the Three Lights called me. They're having trouble on their planet Nemesis, and they need some help. Four of us need to go."
"I will!" Serena said.
"NO!" Amara, Lita, and Rei said instantly.
"..." Serena pouted.
"How about if Ami, Michelle, Rei, and I go, while the rest of you say and protect Serenity-hime?" Trista suggested. Everyone, besides Serena who was still pouting sullenly, nodded their heads in agreement. Serena's frown deepened, if possible.
"FINE! Just LEAVE me here!" Serena stormed off.
"Oh my. Mood swing." Mina replied, after she was out of earshot.
Everyone, save Trista who only smiled, laughed.

As soon as everyone had left the temple for home, Rei went to see if Serena was okay. When she got to Serena's house, she was surprised when instead of a bubbly Serena opening the door, there was an annoyed Sammy standing in the door.
"Uh... hi Sammy... is Serena here?"
"Yeah. She's in her room being depressed for one reason or the other. You can just go up."
"Oh. Uh... thanks Sammy."
Rei knocked on Serena's door. "Come in," came Serena's muffled voice.
"Hey Serena! What's up?" She asked as she sat down across from Serena on her bed.
"I dunno Rei. I just... want you girls to go! I mean, we just beat Galaxia, and I was looking forward to taking a break. I don't want you to go."
"SIGH. I know Serena. And we don't want to leave either. We were having fun hanging out with you and everyone else, but, you know, we HAVE to go. It's out job as the Sailor Soldiers of Love and Justice."
"I know. I understand. I just wish... HEY! I know! How about tomorrow, we all go out and do something! All of us! Including Molly! It'd be sooo much fun!" Serena jumped up enthusiastically.
"Sure Serena. Tomorrow it is."

The next day, Serena, the Scouts, and Molly all went to the Tokyo Shopping District. They didn't buy anything though, but the did have a good time being together for the last day before four of them left. After shopping, they drove down to the beach, and had some more festivity there.
When they got back, they had a big sleepover at the temple.
When everyone was asleep, Serena cried silently until she too, was asleep.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Serena was crying again. So was everyone else. It was time for them to leave. Currently, Serena was clinging to Rei and Ami, refusing to let go. Finally, she did, only to grab onto Michelle and Trista. Fifteen minutes AFTER they should have left, the four were gone, and Serena was crying in Lita's arms.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The next day, Serena, Mina, Lita, Amara, and Hotaru stayed at Serena's house and didn't go to school, or anywhere, for that matter. Serena's mom tried to get them to go to school, but couldn't. They were just to heart broken to force them to do anything. The girls knew they shouldn't mope around, but they couldn't help it. Four of their BEST friends had left for who knows long.
Serena was the worst. She couldn't stop crying. She tried, but simply couldn't.

To be continued.

Only two pages long. Damn. Well, the next chapter will be longer. PROMISE! I already wrote it. When I wrote this on paper, it took only 5 pages, but the second chapter took 20 1/2 pages. I say that should be a few pages longer. At least I can hope. I'm not going to post this next chapter until I get 3 reviews. Come on. That's not that hard. Only 3. I'm not picky at all. And, so you know, I'm more patient than you are. I can wait. If it takes a year to get 3 chapters, I'll wait a year then. Hehe. I don't think that's picky. If you do, then, well, though. Anyways, I just want to know what you think of this. Should I go start the third chapter, or should I give it up here. Well, I have to say thanks to all the nice people who reviewed my last story, especially Cat's Meow, who reviewed a few times. THANX! Once AGAIN, hugs and MORE chocolate to my beta readers, Sodina and Sabby. Couldn't have done it without ya! Oh yeah, my friend Kitten also SORT OF beta read this, so thanks to you too! And, I guess I'll give her chocolate too!
