This is a short chapter - my apoligies. But after this comes the epilogue.

"Where am I?" Serena thought, looking around. "What happened? Am I dreaming?" Lush green grasses surrounded her, and every kind of flower there is in existence was blooming around her. The sun was shining above her, yet it wasn't warm at all. It wasn't cold either, more in the middle. To most people, this would be paradise, however Serena didn't believe it to be that, especially when she realized that she wasn't much taller then some of the flowers.

"What in the – am I a rabbit?" She said, rather surprised. Sure enough, as she rather unhappily noticed, she currently had furry blond…fur and a small, rather cute, little tail. Her ears were rather small for a rabbit, although that wasn't what she focused on. Her attention was drawn to a memory, hearing about a place that looked like this, and someone who could have easily done this. "HELIOS!" She screamed, as loudly as a bunny could scream. Serena noticed, as she hopped, rather happily that her voice hadn't changed.

"You…hollered, Princess." Helios said, appearing before her. Serena stood up and tapped her back paw against the ground. She did her best to make her bunny face appear angry, which only made her look cuter.

"Helios, I want to know the meaning of this." She said, looking him straight in the eye. 'He hasn't changed a bit.' She thought. "Now."

"Well," he said, sitting down on the ground and crossing his legs. "Your dreams weren't at their usual level of…happiness, so I figured that you needed a good, childish dream. And since you're currently unconscious in the real world, I figured that now would be a good time for you to have a light dream."

"I'm unconscious?" Serena asked, her bunny face loosing it's angry look. "Wait a sec, you've been looking into my dreams?!" She began to blush, or at least would have if they weren't currently covered in fur. A couple of her dreams with Darien, well, they were something she would rather not let anyone see.

"Not always." Helios replied, appearing innocent. "Just as I make my rounds. I have to check to make sure that there isn't anything amiss."

"Helios, stay out of my dreams for now on. If there is something wrong, I'll find a way to tell you. Now," she said, staring Helios straight in the eye "put me back in my normal form!"
Helios chuckled, and allowed Serena to turn back into a human. "Thank you." She said, turning in a circle. It felt nice to feel the grass beneath her feet. "Now just a few more questions. Number one – why am I in my princess dress? And number two – why am I not wearing shoes?"

Helios laughed again. "Always with the questions Serenity. Just as curious as a kitten. Well, you're in your princess dress because not only is it the form I know you best in, also because, whether you want to admit it or not, it is your true form. And as for the reason you aren't wearing your slippers, I thought you'd rather go barefoot and feel the grass beneath your feet. You always enjoyed that before."

Serena smiled, and sat down in front of Helios. "Well," she said, playing with the grass on the ground. "as much as I am enjoying our get together, I really should wake up. Everyone must be worried."

"All right, Princess" Helios said, as they both rose to their feet. Helios bent down to kiss her hand. "Visit again sometime. Elysian enjoys having a Moon Princess around."

Serena giggled. 'I'm acting like a child Rini's age.' She thought. "I'll come back Helios. In the meantime, you should drop by Darien's dreams. I'm sure he'd enjoy talking to you. Just, um, try to make sure that you don't spoil any good ones."

'Well,' Serena thought as she woke up. 'That's a battle I won't soon forget.'

"Serena?" Serena vaguely heard Amy say. "Everyone, Serena's awake! She's awake!"

"Well, now I really am." Serena mumbled, turning her head so she could see who was in her room. She could hear the sounds of several feet running around in her room. Rini's face was the first she really noticed.

"Mommy!" Rini cried, jumping onto of Serena. She wrapped her arms around Serena's stomach, hugging tightly, but not tight enough to hurt her. "Are you okay now?"

"Serena?" Ikuko asked, fairly worried. "Do you know where you are?"

"Do you remember what happened?" Kenji asked.

"Ummm." Serena said, still looking around at everyone, all the faces either containing fear or concern. "We were fighting, and I knew we needed more power, or else we would all die within minutes. And a voice told me to use the Moon, and… I don't remember what happened after that."
There was a mixture of sadness, relief, and happiness in the faces that were in the room. Everyone stayed silent for a while, just staring at her. Finally, mostly because she still didn't know what had happened, Serena broke the silence.

"Alright, you guys, what happened while I was out." Serena said, looking at everyone in the room. "By the way, how long was I out for? What happened after the fight? And can I pretty please have something to eat, I am starved."

Everyone was kind of stunned for a moment, then they all got up and began moving around.
"We'll whip you up something good." Ikuko and Lita said, getting up and walking downstairs to the kitchen.

"Raye and I have to call a couple people and tell them that everything's okay." Mina said, jumping up and grabbing Raye's hand while dragging her out the door. The only people who were actually told what happened were Andrew, Molly, Chad, Greg, Ken, Raye's Grandfather, and of course Ms. Mizuno, and the girls had promised to tell them the second everything was okay.

"Serena, I'm just going to scan you a bit and make sure that everything is okay." Amy said, typing a few commands into her computer. "Rini, I need to ask you to move, okay?"

Rini still hadn't moved from her position on top of Serena. "Rini?" Darien asked, brushing her bangs out of her eyes. "She's asleep." He said, rather surprised. Although, as Darien realized, Rini hadn't really slept last night, just like the rest of them, so it was only natural that the second she could really relax she would fall asleep. Kenji moved forward, and carefully picked his Granddaughter up.

"I'll bring her up to her bed." Kenji said quietly to Serena. Holding Rini close, he slowly walked out of the room. Sammy followed him, but when he reached the hall, he went the opposite way and into his room. Sammy had also been permitted to skip classes, and he knew that he would probably have to go back tomorrow. That meant that he had to get his all homework finished today.

"Well, Amy, if you can give me a list of where everyone's classes are, Amara, Hotaru and I will go pick up all the work you guys missed." Michelle said, after trying hard to think of something they could do.

"There's a list of all the classes each of us take, what room number, and what teacher in the front pocket of my bag." Amy said, as she directed a blue light to begin scanning over Serena. "There are also maps of our school, Raye's school, and Rini's school with them."

"About Rini's school," Serena said, as the blue light slowly moved down her body. She looked to Darien quickly for conformation, and when he nodded, she continued. "Just, please tell her teacher that Rini will be going home, and won't be attending any more classes. We'll bring her by to pick up her things soon."

"Will do." Michelle said. She took Hotaru's hand and moved towards the door. She paused, noticing something was missing. "Hotaru, where's Amara?"

The sound of an engine starting was the answer to Michelle's question. Michelle muttered a few words under her breath, then grabbed Hotaru's and ran downstairs to the front door. "She couldn't wait for us to at least get outside before she started up the car!" Michelle cried as they ran.

"You know," Darien said, as the girl giggled at the scene they had witnessed. "In Amara's defense, we did keep her from getting in her car for the last few days."

The scream of "AMARA! SLOW DOWN!" from the street only made them laugh harder.

I'm guessing everyone is wondering why I put in a scene in Elysion. It's just because I like Elysion, and the anime seemed to forget about it after SuperS. Epilogue is next, then the story is all done:)
