Darien's eyes blinked open just as the lady from next door was pronounced dead. (Got YA!) He gripped Serena's hand a little tighter beginning to pray to Jesus to save her. He loved her so much. He just now realized this. He couldn't remember the last time he'd actually wanted to fight with her. Looking up at her face he gently brushed a lock of her hair behind her ear.

Lita looked over at her best friend. She was being checked out today. Her friend no doubt would not be checked out at all. She wanted to hit something ANYTHING. She squeazed her eyes shut tears leaking from beneath the lids. She had promised not to cry! She had promised herself after her parents died she would never cry again. Nephlite shook his head and squeased her hand trying to reasure her.

My time on earth
Long as it seems
Is just a moment
In the grand
Scheme of things
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~


The class jumped into action almost immediately though the chatter was just a murmur of what it could be. Melvin went over and started to talk in soft, comforting tones to Molly. Who turned in his embrace and started to openly sob in his arms causing his glasses to fell off though he only picked them up and put them on her desk making him actually look kinda cute had anyone noticed. They didn't.

Amy had her head buried in her book. No one knew her well enough to go and comfort her. And so she was left alone sobbing for the friend she could lose.


~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
A short refrain
Of life's endless song
Sung only once and
Then were gone
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~


Sammy stayed home from school that day. He looked out the window for most the day his eyes unseeing. His mother was knocking on his door again. "Sweet heart you have to eat something." She pleaded before placing a tray in front of the door her footsteps walking across the carpeted floor. He opened the door and ate a little before pushing the tray away. He just wasn't hungry.

Raye looked up at Mina, Kunzite, and Jedite all were searching for a sign she would be okay. Raye turned her head and stared at the fire. "She will wake."


~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
My time on earth
Each breath I breathe
Is one more chance
To share my love
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~


AN: Well that's the end guys. Hope you enjoyed it.

Still here? (Got ya again!) Good continue.


People walked in and out of room 117 until Sunday when no vistors were allowed. Darien was gone and hadn't been seen for a week. It had been almost a month since she was first admitted. Sammy had gone to visit her for the first time two days ago and the scouts had been in and out of the hosptial themselves.

Not one of them wanted to know what it was like to fight by themselves like Serena had done. Even when they had been there to help they were suddenly realizing why she had no energy left it took so much energy that sometimes they could hardly stand.

A blonde haired boy was brought in to the room across from hers. He came over and visited her since he couldn't leave till they figured out the reason for his "Fainting" spells.


~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
With those like me
Who come and go
Like shooting stars
The truth be known
That's all we are
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~


During one of his visits he was holding her hand softly when a weird feeling came over him. The girls eyes fluttered open and she looked up at him. Her gaze was trusting and serene and then her eyes widened all the way and a paniced look came to her eyes. "Who are you? And why..." her eyes filled with tears, Why can't I move my legs?"


~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
The more than I know
The more I can see
The older I grow
The more I believe
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~


He had yelled for the nurse and they had all but shoved him out of the room after calling the doctor in. He went back to his room. He visited her everyday for two weeks before he was released. He hadn't had another fainting spell since she woke up.

Her eyes dully looked out the window. She was going home. In a wheelchair. She had refused to see anyone but her parents. Her room was closed and her legs were always covered. She could do everything by herself. She didn't need any help at all. She told anyone who offered to help to get out.

After she came home she was better. She smiled when people did things for her thanking them politely. She was normal in ever aspect of the word. But she wasn't Serena anymore. She was different. She didn't even look like her anymore. So it was no doubt when she finally went back to school that people at first didn't reconise her.

She answered questions correctly, didn't fall asleep, and was actually early. She was great at using her wheel chair. She could out race anyone.


~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
Its not the length of the life
Or the depth of the grave
In the end we'll be measured
By the love that we gave
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~


No one asked questions about the wheel chair. They had all been told. Paralized, Lucky, Forever: and that was that.


~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
So my time on earth
On fate depends
But all that happens
In the space
From end to end
Depends on me
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~


The scouts had stopped calling a few months after they started. Luna had left the dull lifeless girl when she had told her simply to "Never come back."

Darien had not stopped though, everyday he would sit and talk with her. Even though many times he had been smacked or hit he endured it and was soon rewarded with a smile every time he walked in.


~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
And choices I face
For better or worse
Their mine to make
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~


Slowly the walls around her had started to crumble and she started to laugh. She was falling in love with Darien. With Darien not Endymion.


~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
More than I know
The more I can see
The older I grow
The more I believe
Its not the length of the life
Or the depth of the grave
In the end we'll be measured
By the love that we gave
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~


She was 18 and still in her wheelchair. She had went up to the temple when she was 16 and the four sad girls and 2 cats had came at her with hugs and warm welcomes.

They had found the outers thanks to her wheelchair and prehaps Alex's terrible driving. It had been a good wheelchair till it was ran over. Oh well Alex had looked horror stricken and had paid for a new one. She had a funny feeling Pluto would use that for some sort of blackmail in the near future.

Darien had remembered their past. Right after they had told the other they loved them.


~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
So my time on earth
Will be well spent
And when I leave
This world
I leave with no regrets
I'll live and love
For all its worth
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~


And now he was leading her through a maze of roses. A blind fold around her eyes and him at the "wheel". Suddenly she felt, in a sense, arms under her legs and she was sat down on something. "Close your eyes." He whispered in her ear.

His warm breath tickled her ear as he slowly took of the blind fold. "All right open them." She did and found herself on a large gazebo with high bushes and closed roses. She looked in front of her and there sat Darien with a ring. He looked up at her and she knew the question before he asked her.

She kissed him. The answer was known as he slid the ring on her finger.

And a stream of sparkles rushed towards the roses and they opened immediately. The woman at the end of the garden smiled and walked away.
It was done.

Till I live out
My time on earth
Till I live out
My time on earth
