Hi, I don't want you to get the impression that I come up with a chapter every couple days, it's just that I had the chapters already written. I'm sorry my chapters are always so short, I don't understand how people can make their chapter so long..... Oh, well. I'm sure you'd reather read my story than read this, so here's my next chapter!

Chapter 2 the new enemy

Rini sighed and got ready for bed. She could tell something was wrong, Darien was being mean to Serena again and Serena for some reason liked Andrew. "Something's really wrong......." Rini said to herself. But Rini had no idea it was just about to get worse.......
Serena could now feel it coming more gradually where she would get weaker and weaker. 'Why is this happening?' She would think to herself. 'I don't deserve this...... Do I?'


Sunday morning
Darien got up and decided to take a walk. He didn't know where he was going, but he had to get pout of his apartment. 'I wish it was different, Serena. I miss you.....' He passed the playground and looked to see Rini and Serena on the swings, with Raye, Amy, Mina and Lita sitting on a nearby bench talking. Luna and Artemis were sitting on the grass watching Serena and Rini.
Serena looking ahead to see Darien walking by. She wanted so bad to be able to go up to him and just have it be the way it used to be. Darien and Serena made eye contact. Though Serena gave him a disgusted look as to why he was staring at her, there was sadness in her eyes.
Raye got up and walked up to Serena. "We have decided to have an emergency meeting at my house right now so you can't miss it. You can call your mom at my house." Serena only nodded and continued to look where she had seen Darien walk back.
"Serena, are you ok? I mean, with Darien being mean to you and then you and Andrew and now. Your not being yourself." Raye looked really worried. "I'm fine! And, anyway, why would you care!?!" Serena snapped, then got up and grabbed Rini's hand. "Come on Rini! We're leaving!" "But Serena! What about the meeting?!" Rini pulled her Hand away and walked backward towards Raye. "I don't care what you say but I'm going! And you should to! It's important!" Rini didn't mean to yell, but everything just seemed to be happening all at once. "Fine you go! See if I care!" 'That's my girl.' Serena thought as she stomped away.
So the five of them and the two cats walked back to Raye's house without saying a word. Then when they got there, Raye went to the phone and called Darien.
Darien went to phone and picked it up. "Hello?....... There's a meeting?......... I'll be there soon....... Yah, ok, bye." Then he got in his car and drove out to Raye's house. When he got there he was greeted by Raye, who motioned for him to follow her. Once inside Raye's bedroom with the door safely shut, "This is about the new enemy, right?" Darien asked, looking at Raye. Raye shook her head. "It's about you, and Serena. What happened between you, anyway?" Raye asked Darien. "Besides the fact that we hate each other...." He thought about the question for a second. Rini, heartbroken started to cry silently. Amy put her arm around Rini. "It'll be ok, Rini." Amy said soothingly. Rini got up and ran to Darien and hugged his legs. "What's wrong with her?" Darien asked, pushing Rini off. Raye starting to get mad now, spoke up.
"Oh, I don't know! Maybe it's something you said! And if you can't figure out why she's crying, then maybe you should leave now!" "Don't worry, she didn't mean that. you can stay it's ok." Mina said, trying to be reassuring. "Way to go, goddess of love." Artemis muttered to himself. "Do you have Amnesia, or something?" Rini said in between sobs. Lita walked up and picked up Rini. "Maybe you should leave. It would probably be better for Rini." Lita said, trying not to get mad. "Fine! If it will make you happy I'll leave! I don't even know why I came in the first place!" Then Darien turned around and walked out the door, not even bothering to shut it afterwards.
Raye walked up and shut the door to her room. "I think our meeting should be about Serena and Darien." Raye said shaking her head. Then she looked up. I just don't get it. It's like something or someone is controlling them. "That's it!"
Amy said taking out her pocket computer. From there she typed something into it and sighed. "What did you find Amy?" Luna asked, jumping up on the bed besides her. "I have some bad news." Amy looked up at Raye. "Raye, when you were with Darien, or Serena, did you feel anything strange?" Amy asked. "Acutely.... Yes! I thought it was weird, but I ignored it. Usually I don't but..... Why? What did you find?" Raye walked over to Amy and looked at the computer.

The screen read: prd2d4ev dap230 prs2d4ev sho230 pra2d4ev aarc230

"Do you really know what that means?" Raye asked, impressed. "Sure, I do. Pr stands for probe. Dc stands for Darien. 2d means it been there 2 days and 4ev means it plans on staying forever." Amy said, satisfied. "So, the other long ones are the same thing, but for Serena and Andrew. "Raye said. "Yes, and the shorter ones mean that right now Serena and Darien are at there houses and Andrew's at the arcade." Amy said, looking at the computer.
"Does that mean the probe is computerized?" Lita asked. "I think so." Amy said. "Either that or they have their own web site." Mina laughed at her own joke, but no one else seemed think it was very funny.
It was later that night now and Serena was going to bed. In her dream she was talking to Darien. "I miss you, Darien, and I'm so worried about Rini." Serena was saying to him. They were walking through the park together. But now it was deserted. "Darien, if nothing changes, we could be like this forever, or worse. We could be....." Serena almost started to cry.
Darien stopped walking. "I miss you too, but there's nothing we can do about. Serena, today at the meeting when Rini knew something was wrong she started to cry. It was all I could do to look at her and pretend that ever thing was, when I knew it wasn't and might never be." Darien continued to walk in a straight line. "It's just that......"
Then Serena started to cry. her knees buckled and she fell to the ground. Darien stopped again and helped Serena up, and they hugged each other. "I really don't mean to be so mean to Rini. It's just that......"
Serena pulled away from Darien and faced him. "About what I asked you earlier..... You know, If you like Rini more than me? I knew you wouldn't answer. I didn't expect you to........" Darien smiled. "I love you both." "Oh Darien," "Serena hugged him again. "I love you too. I never want this moment to end." Nothing could have made that moment more perfect.
Then Andrew came walking by and saw Serena and Darien. "Hi Darien, hi Serena." Andrew's face started to change to a shade of bright red, causing Serena to blush as well. Darien tried not to laugh. "I think I should go." Andrew looked at the ground and started walking away. "Andrew." Darien got up and walked towards his friend. "It's OK. You don't have to leave." Darien said. "I um........... I really think I should go...... Your probably really mad at me........." Andrew turned and walked away again.
"I kinda don't blame him. He probably thinks he could never face us again. Maybe you more than me." Serena said, walking up to Darien. "He didn't do it on purpose." Darien looked at the direction Andrew had gone. "Can we talk about something else, please?" Serena tried to smile. Her face was almost it's normal color again.
"Raye will already try to never let me forget this....." Darien laughed. "Don't worry about it." "Do you think we'll ever fight?" Serena asked. Darien laughed again. "There was that time on your birthday...." Darien's smile got bigger. "Your being just like my brother...... But that's ok, because my mom says that if my brother didn't love me he wouldn't tease me." Serena said, laughing.
Darien stopped smiling. "I really should go now. It's almost time for work." Darien tried to walk away, but Serena stopped him. "Darien, what's wrong? Was it something I said?" "Don't worry about. I really should go." Darien started walking again. "You know, you can tell me anything." Serena watched Darien walk away. "I don't want to talk about it." Darien said quietly. Then Serena figured it out. I must be about his parents. He could talk to her about almost anything except when it was about his parents. He must have been really close to them.
"Darien, wait!" Serena ran up to him. "I'm sorry about what I said. I don't want you to leave." Serena said sympathetically. "Serena, please. I need to be alone." Darien said quietly. He didn't mean to be so rude, it just seemed to him that everything was happening all at once, and he didn't want to pretend everything was alright anymore.
He stopped walking again. "I'm sorry. Today just hasn't been the best day. I almost wish everything was back the way that if used to be." Darien stopped and looked at the ground. "Then there was nothing to ruin those perfect moments you never want to end." Serena tried not to cry. "I am so sorry." Serena let one tear fall. Darien turned and faced her. "Oh Serena......." Serena hugged him. "Whatever happens, I'll always be there for you." "I don't know what I would do without you." Darien smiled. "Thanks, Serena." Serena smiled too.
Then a bright blinding light fell on them, and slowly they started to fade away. Then the dream was over.
Serena woke up a few hours later, wondering if that dream was real. If she had really talked to Darien and he had really said he lover her. But when she got up and looked in the mirror, her eyes were red. She had been crying.
