Told you I would be back soon!! I am on a mission to get as many chapters as possible out on both of my stories, before I have to go to my grandmother's house on Monday. I have to stay there for 5 days!!! My mom is going' to New Orleans with her boyfriend to see a football game. That means no new chapters, or even me going to Fanfiction.net!!!! Oh well, that means ya'll will probably get at least three chapters on this story and Hermione's Secret, before I leave.
************************************
Hecate-chan: Hello people! It hasn't been very long, but I felt guilty about that cliffie!
Marcus: ::rolls eyes:: Whatever.....
Hecate-chan: He is angry because he can't come with me, he will be all alone in my room, until I get back.
Marcus: I will not miss you! I am gonna get my wand back, and then get far away from here!
Hecate-chan: ::rolls her eyes:: Sure, whatever. I am taking your wand with me, so it will be pretty hard for you to take it.
Marcus: ::sighs and begins to sulk::
Hecate-chan: Oh, don't worry, you will get it back soon enough, so quit pouting!
Marcus: ::perks up:: I will?! When!?
Hecate-chan: I dunno, when I don't need you anymore.
Marcus: ::gets sullen again:: Whatever....
Hecate-chan: Well, anyway, I am going to be using Spanish more and more as this story progresses, but I will have translations, don't worry. It is a way of practicing. Ummm...for other people that can read and speak Spanish, I know that I am not using the r correctly, my computer doesn't have the right font, because I am American. So sorry about that!
Marcus: Dang, woman, take a breath!
Hecate-chan: You are starting to sound like Wufei! Stop it!!!
Marcus: ::backs off scared:: Ok........whatever........

Can't Run Away From The Past
Chapter 7-A Talk With The Queen
"Where......where am I? The last thing I remember is sparring with Haruka..." said Serena, just now waking up. Her head no longer felt as if it was going to explode, just now a lingering throb. She was laying on hard marble floor, of where, she didn't know.
Slowly pulling herself into a sitting position, she looked around. It was mostly all white, with a little bit of gray and blue. She couldn't really make out any certain shapes, just all blurry and washed out looking.
Getting up proved to be ~very~ painful, and as she looked down at herself, she saw that she was wearing a black version of her white Moon Princess dress. It clung to her as her other one would, but this one somehow felt different, like it stood for something else, not the Princess of the Moon Kingdom.
"You finally awoke, little Princess, good," Serena heard the voice, but she couldn't see its body. She looked around some more, and decided that she must look quite the fool, just standing here.
Walking forward, towards what seemed to be another huge room, she tried to call out to that voice again. "Hello! Who are you, and where am I?"
"Why Princess, don't you reconize your home?" said the mysterious voice, dryly.
"What are you talking about! I don't even know where this place is!"
"I'm surprised! And don't you regonize your mother, when you hear her voice?"
Serena froze, in mid-stride, and looked behind her. Sure enough there was Queen Serenity, sitting, as if she owned the universe, on a chair that looked like it was made of crystal. She looked the same, since Serena last saw her, a cuvining, evil, conning Queen of the Moon. Well, that was how Serena saw her, everybody else saw her as a sweet, wise, serene, and gentle ruler of the Moon Kingdom.
"Why did you bring me here!? I thought I made it clear to you that I never wanted to see your ugly, conning, sadistic, evil, heartless, merciless face again, or this stupid Kingdom!!" screamed Serena, with a rage that surprised even herself. It did nothing for Queen Selenity though, who just continued to sit impasivley, and gaze at her daughter.
"Why it was not I who brought you here, it was you."
"Tell me, why don't I believe that?"
"Perhaps because you don't want to...you are denying a lot of thing lately."
Serena bit back her sharp reply and was just contented to glare at the older woman, hatefully and reproachfully.
It didn't faze Selenity, as she just continued to stare, and stare, and...stare. Finally Serena couldn't take it anymore and exploded, "Tell why I am here! I hate this palace, I hate being a princess, and most of all I hate being the spawn of Satan, COMMONLY KNOWN AS YOU!!"
"Temper, temper, that was always your most common fault. Got it from your father, I suppose," mused Selenity, more to herself than to the angry young women, across from her," You are here because I am supposed to tell you your next...mission, you could say. You are to go back to Tokyo, and fight the evil that is awaiting you," at Serena's glare-that-can-rival-Wufei's, Selenity rolled her eyes and gave out more information," Of course, it will not be the simple. There will be heartbreak, pain, dangerous secrets uncovered, oh and you must fulfill a prophecy, before you run out of time. The last part will come soon enough. That is all I am permitted to tell you."
"That's all? What are you, some kind of crazy, schizophrenic, physco? As well as a horrific, sorry excuse for a Lunarian being, much less a mother!" screamed Serena, her rage reaching almost to its peak.
That finally seemed to get a rise out of Queen Serenity, as she rose up out of her chair, her face contorted in violent anger. "What would you know!? You are still just a child, by our standards, and besides, you have no idea what you are talking about!"
"Like you would! You're dead, and have been since you stupidly sacrificed all the power of your crystal, for people that couldn't give a rat's ass about you, if you weren't Queen! Me being one of them!"
"Oh shut up you stupid girl, you have no idea what you are talking about. You are still the stubborn, pigheaded, ambitious, disrespectful, rule-breaking, sorry excuse for a Lunarian princess that you used to be," whispered Selenity in a deadly soft voice. Serena didn't back off though.
"Oh, and I guess I should listen to you? A cheap, low-down, lying, scum, schizophrenic, witch! And whatever respect I ever held for you, was lost after you set me up with that chauvinistic pig, who calls himself the Prince of Earth!!"
Queen Selenity looked as if she could have said something very nasty, but she held her tounge and said instead, "We are wasting time with petty arguments, you must go, your "friends" are probably worried about you. Not that I care."
"Fine then, let me go back, and I will try to forget ever talking to you period," said Serena evenly.
Suddenly, there was another blinding white light, and Serena fell unconscious again, leaving the realm of the dead Moon Kingdom.
***************************
"Serena...Serena wake up!" called the distant voice of Hotaru, as she stood over the pale form of Serena.
She stirred, and opened one eye, and said," Hotaru, how long have I been asleep?"
"Just for a couple of hours, but you were tossing and rolling around, and talking in your sleep. Something about evil, mean, crazy, schizophrenic women," answered Hotaru.
The others came rushing in and began to say a million thing at once. Serena had since then, sat up, and was now getting annoyed. "Hey, everybody! Shut...up!" she yelled, and they complied.
"What happened Serena, you just suddenly started screaming and holding your head, and then it was as if you had died. Your body was so still and pale, and then when we got you back here, you started talking and moving around in your sleep," clarified Michiru, with a worried look on her face.
Serena sat up straight and began to explain, "Well, apparently I was sent to the remains of the Ancient Moon Kingdom, though Queen Selenity said I brought myself there. Well, she said that...she said that we need to return to ~Tokyo~," when Serena said Tokyo, her hands clenched the sheets and she got an angry look in her eye," We are to do the normal thing, fight the evil that awaits us. Except she said that it will be slightly more complicated than that. There will be heartbreak, pain, suffering, and dangerous secrets, or something like that. She didn't say when we had to leave, but...I think we need to soon." finished Serena sadly, at the prospect of having to go back to the place she hated most on Earth.
The other scouts looked shocked, and frowns marred every face. They too, had bad, even painful memories that centered around Tokyo, and they had no wish to return. Serena had her leader face on, with no emotions at all showing through, and her eyes were hard, cold, and emotionless as well.
Setsuna was the first to speak up, " Well, for the sake of duty, we know what we must do. I am very sorry Serena, but we have to return to Tokyo, we have to."
Serena bowed her head, and for a second everyone thought she was crying, but when she looked up, there was a determined look on her face. Though she hated it, she knew what she must do, duty before pleasure or pain. It would not be easy to just go back to Tokyo, for there ~were~ secrets that would be unveiled, pain, heartbreak and most of all, demons of the past to face. But through it all, she and her scouts, would be ready.

Marcus:....bye....::sad because he will be all alone::
