Greetings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At Last the Ancient One has returned! I know it's been months since I last updated, but now it is time to get back into action. After a long slump, I have recovered fully and am ready to get back to work!! Warning, though, I have decided not to follow the "Stars" storyline, frankly because the whole girls being guys/guys being girls thing is kind of …weird. All right, no off to the story. HOE!! (Sakura's Notarized Expression in the Subbed)
For the last two months, the Tsukino home was a distressed place. Serena's mother had been sick horribly off and on and no one knew what had caused it. Usually, she'd just act as it nothing was wrong but Serena could see a deep pain in her eyes. Mr. Tsukino had decided to take Sammy away with him on a business trip, figuring he was to young to handle his mother's illness. During that time, Serena took very good care of the house and her mother but not without help. Sage, Sakura and Darien had been there every day as long as they could. The other scout brought Serena her homework, and so she wouldn't get to far behind. Amy even did it for her on many occasions.
One quiet day while Serena had free time, she had taken a walk through the park to clear her mind. While staring off into space, she noticed something pink falling from the sky. A small child floating down with a parasol, fluttered slowly, slid down a slide and ran towards her. She noticed how the little girls had dark pink odangos and immediately thought of Rini. Serena looked at the little girl and smiled. "Hi". The child cocked her head curiously and said, "Hi". Serena reached out but the little girl had run away and out of her sights. She shrugged her shoulder's dismissing the cute little face. She headed home solemnly, planning what to make for dinner. As she passed the gate, Ikuko was standing at the door, scowling. "Where have you been?? How could you leave your little sister alone to wander the city like that?? It's a miracle she found her way home!!" Serena walked into the house confused as ever, "what are you talking about?" From behind her fuming mom, the heart- odangoed little girl peeked shyly. "Her?!" Serena blinked dumbly twice before realizing the girl had to be some future child of hers. She apologized and took "her sister" up to their room. Serena shut the door and eyed her guest slyly. The child smiled quaintly and jumped on the bed. "Who are you", Serena asked as she sat down. "The light of a lost heart…" the girl said happily. Confused, Serena picked up her communicator and called a meeting.
As the last of the group assembled, each scout commented on how much the girl looked like Rini. Serena had informed the 'Captors that Rini was her daughter, who had recently returned back to the future. "Maybe she is another daughter", Mina suggested. Sylia quickly corrected her, "No, only one heir is born to the Moon. It is highly unlikely for her to be Small Lady's sister." "Who are you", Sage asked the subject of the conversation. "For now that is unimportant", she replied. Before any further questions were asked, Luna flew into the room, excitedly. "Come quickly! Your mother has collapsed in the kitchen!" Serena raced from the room to her mother's side, tears streaming from her eyes. "Mom, wake up! Please…wake up!" Amy kneeled along side them, checking her pulse. "She's alive, but we must get her to a hospital". Nodding, Darien picked up her mother out of Serena's grasp. She followed them to Darien's car, getting in back to support her mother head in her lap. "Would you like me to use a Card", Sakura offered, "The Return may help…" "No, it's OK. Just meet us at the hospital." Watching from above, Eriol, Suppi and Ruby watched from the roof. "Master, what is wrong with girl's mother", Suppi asked concerned. "She appears to be suffering `from some type internal illness. I shall let the Moon child rest, but Sakura and the others must continue to train." "Hmm, maybe work will get her mind off of these things…" "You may be right", his master replied.
In the ER, Serena and the others sat waiting for the doctor to return. At last, a slender figure in a long white coat approached them. Standing, Serena prepared for the worse. "Ahem", the doctor began, "It seems as though your mother's cancer cells have once again spread. Even though has gone through several treatments, none seem to be working. Her body rejects every drug we give her, as well as formed immunity to the chemotherapy. I'm surprised she could withstand all the pain she had endured. She still has a fighting chance but I can't say how long she still has." Serena collapsed into Darien's arm as the weight of a thousand ton had fallen into her lap. "Cancer…I didn't even know she was sick. She never told me…" As the tears replaced words, the others couldn't murmur a word of comfort. They didn't, couldn't understand how it felt to be so close to loosing not merely a loved one, but a mother. As Julian and Tory arrived, telling by the look on everyone's faces, something was wrong. But before Tory could ask of it, a magical force swept over his senses. Turning stiffly, a relatively young woman passed by, all skin visible from her long flowing white gown, shone brightly. Tory instantly knew this being was not normal, but stranger, he thought he had seen it once before. He continued to stare as she turned and nodded to him as if reading his thoughts. Serena stopped crying long enough to see the woman, but not before sensing her. She, Sage and Sakura all glanced at one another. She was a Clow card. Heading towards the first room, in perfect view of the group, the being placed her glowing hand upon the forehead of the shivering elderly man in the bed. He instantly stopped shaking and his face seemed to brighten as his health returned. Serena eyes widened in amazement as they watched the same thing done in the next following rooms. "The Heal", Serena whispered.
