Chapter 5

'Meanwhile, Serena's house'

Most of the guys where sitting in Serena's room talking about court stuff, while Serena and Rini were busy helping Serena's mom with some cleaning.

"I can't believe I didn't see all this before." Jason said, ashamed that he didn't recognize his prince and princesses.

"It is alright, Jason," Selena said putting a hand on his shoulder, "We didn't recognize you guys either so there is nothing to be ashamed of."

"Finally done!" Serena said as she and Rini entered her room. She walked over and sat down next to Chris, snuggling against him.

"You haven't changed at all, Princess Serenity." Jake said.

Serena just smiled at him. Rini on the other hand was shocked by the news. Serena was her mother!!

"Mommy?" Rini said as tears started to trickle down her checks. All this time she had been living with her mother and she didn't even know it.

Justin gave an all-knowing smile as Serena looked at him, "Serenity, I would like for you to meet your future daughter, Neo-Princess Serenity."

Serena looked like she was going to faint, "Rini is my… my… daughter??"

"Yes, she is," Justin said.

"But who is the father?" Serena asked, taking Rini into her arms.

"I can't tell you that. Not yet anyway. It will shake the balance of time." Justin replied.

Rini snuggled closer to Serena. She smiled and placed a blanket over Rini.

"So who are these people mommy?" Rini asked in a whisper.

Serena smiled. "These people are the princes and generals of the Silver Millennium. Chris is the prince of the Sun. Neil, Peter, Derrick and André are generals of the moon. Ken, Jake, Clark and Mark are generals of the sun. Michael is the prince of Venus. Jason is the Prince of Uranus. Andrew is the prince on the Moon, my brother and your uncle. Justin is the prince of Pluto. Greg is the prince of Mercury. Damien is the Prince of Saturn. Selena (Sailor universe) is my sister and Jasmine (Sailor sun) is Chris' sister.

Rini smiled. "This is just like home!" she exclaimed happily. "I am so glad that I finally found you mommy."

"But you have been living with me all the time." Serena said.

"I know, but knowing that you are my mother… it is just different."

"I wish that you would tell me why they are after you Rini." Serena said.

"I know mommy. But Pluto would be really mad at me if I did." Rini said.

"Rini, they are no longer a part of my court. They made their choice that night. They wouldn't listen to me, so why should I care what they think or do, as long as they don't interfere in our business." Serena said looking at the boys.

"Serena, you know that we will never go behind your back in any way," Damien said, "but would you mind telling us why they have done so?"

"No, not at all Damien," Serena said, "in fact I would be more then happy to." She took a deep breath, "It all happened the day before you started at Juuban high. Ami called me and told me, in a harsh and angry voice, that there was an attack in the park and that they needed help immediately. On my way there were two other youmas that showed up and attacked me. I tried to call them and tell them that I needed help but they wouldn't answer. When I finally got there they all started to yell at me. Telling me how stupid and whiny I am, that I needed to grow up and get my act together. I didn't know what to do. All I wanted was to get away from them, even Darien, my supposed boyfriend." Serena broke into sobs and Chris wrapped his arms around her shaking body.

"Oh Chris," she cried, "He… he slapped me!"

The boy's anger flared, "He did what!!" Andrew yelled, "Wait until I get my hands on the guy!"

"I can't believe that he would do that to her." Jason said.

"Me neither," Michael said, "I always thought of him as a nice and kind man."

"We can not let this go by." Mark said.

"We will have to do so, for now. Right now we need to focus on the battle at hand and the safety of Serenity and her daughter." André said.

"Greg, see if you can find out anything about this Rubeus and his four bitches." Travis ordered.

"I'll get on it right away." Greg replied.

'Rei's temple, Scout's meeting'

"What!?!?!?!" The scouts yelled in unison. They couldn't believe what Darien was telling them.

"Who, other then us, knows that Serena is the moon princess??" Mina asked standing up, "she could be in danger!"

Darien shook his head, "They kissed. And I am not talking about a cheek kiss."

"Hold on one damn minute!!" Amara yelled, causing everyone to look at her. "Darien, are you telling me that I have betrayed my PRINCESS AND COUSIN!?!?" She screamed out.

"Darien… When did this happen?" Michelle asked.

"Last night, I could feel Serena transform into princess Serenity so I rushed down to the park," Darien frowned, "She was fighting against Rubeus, the four sisters and some droids. The scouts gasped. "And yes Amara, that's what I am telling you. Serena is the princesses of the Moon, Serenity."

"Why didn't you call?!?!" Ami yelled out.

Darien glared at her and Ami closed her mouth.

"She wasn't exactly alone or anything." Darien said.

"What do you mean 'not alone'?" Raye asked. She was not happy with the things she was hearing.

"She was fighting with 14 other guys and three of them are the same guys that have been helping us out." Darien explained. The scouts were shocked, "From what I could tell, 8 of them where generals or something and the seven others were princes…" Darien stopped.

"Princes??" Lita asked shocked.

"Yes, the princes of the Sun, Moon, Uranus, Mercury, Pluto, Saturn and Venus."

The scouts where flabbergasted. Amara tried to shake the images of Serena, HER princess and cousin, standing on a battle field with knights, instead of the scouts, out of her mind.

Raye looked even more ill then she had done before. She too was having a very hard time cooping with this news and the fact that they had rejected Serena from the team and that she didn't want anything to do with them, made her feel even worse, "I… I…" Raye couldn't find words.

Michelle pulled her mirror out and wielded her hand over it, telling it to show her something about these men.

"By the way, has anyone seen Luna or Artemis today?" Mina asked worriedly.

"No. I haven't seen them for two days now." Ami replied, wiping her eyes.

"I think they are at Serena's house," Hotaru said, "Rini was telling me that Luna is going to have kittens soon! And I am going to have one!!" Hotaru said smiling.

"That is nice dear." Michelle said, "Ami we need to find out more about all this. I don't like the fact that our princess, no matter what we have done, is fighting the enemy without any of us being there."

"For some reason I don't think that she cares about that fact; none of us being there to protect her. She didn't seem to be in need of any help." Darien said.

Amara nodded; slamming her fist into a wood post, "I agree. We still need to protect her." She had just finished her sentence when Rini came running up the stairs.

"Sorry I am late, but aunt Tsukino wanted me to do something for her." Rini said.

"That's okay," Mina said, "and you are right Michelle. We need to get her back some how."

"Are you guys talking about mommy?" Rini asked not really caring what she just had said.

The others grew silent. "He, he, Rini did you just call Serena you mother?" Raye asked. Rini nodded, "I sure did!"

"Oh, ok, just checking." Mina said.

"Rini, who is your father?" Darien asked.

"What?!?! How can Serena be your mother?!?" Lita exclaimed.

Rini glared at him, "Well you certainly don't qualify for that role," She snapped at him.

That made Darien's blood boil, "Listen here you little brat," The sudden anger in Darien's eyes made Rini back away from him. "We have risked our lives for you. You need some good slaps on the…"

"Harm her and it will be your final act, Endymion!" A voice bellowed.

"Justin!!!" Rini exclaimed, turning around.

"Who the hell are you?" Darien asked, fire burning in his eyes.

The man got down on one knee in front of Rini, "You okay? Serenity told me that you might be here."

Rini nodded, "Mommy always knows how to find me, and yes; I am alright, thanks to you." She said, wrapping her arms around Justin's neck.

The scouts had gotten enough of this and had pulled out their wands, while Hotaru and Trista had summoned their weapons.

"We'll ask again, who are you?" Amara said.

Justin shook his head, not really caring about 8 scouts and an angry prince of Earth. He knew that if they did anything to attack him, Serenity would be mad at them.

"Justin, can we go now?" Rini asked, extending both arms, wanting him to lift her up.

"Sure we can. As a matter of fact I came here to tell you that it is time to come home." Justin said, lifting her up.

"You are not going anywhere until you have told us who you are." Mina said as four outer scouts were blocking his path.

Justin let out a warm chuckle, "I like girls with attitude. But in this case I need to pull a trick." He said, snapping his fingers and disappearing. The scouts looked at each other flabbergasted, since the guy hadn't even transformed.

"What the hell just happened?!" Ami shrieked.

Amara slammed her fist onto a flour crate, "Damn!!!" she yelled.

"Amara calm down will you," Michelle said, "Yelling isn't helping at all."

"I can't, Shelly," Amara yelled, "Koneko doesn't want to talk to us, not that anyone can blame her, and strange new warriors show up doing what we should be doing, namely protecting her. We really have been horrible to her."

The other girls became very quiet. Amara was right, as always. They had been horrible to Serena and they had a difficult task at hand, getting her back.
