THE EARTH ROYALTY, Chapter Seven
"So Toni, what are you gonna do?" Amara asked.
"Well I did want to look at Raye's Temple, but I'm not sure if I should."
"Come on, I'll take you there," Amy smiled, "she doesn't know you exist now."
"We would come with you, but we already have plans," Michelle stated.
"Ok, see ya laters!"
"Yeah, bye!"
"If you need us, call us." They said their goodbyes.

In Darien's apartment, he was pacing around the room. "I have to just call her house and hope that she's there, ok, I can do this."
He picked up the phone and dialled her home number.
"Hello, Irene Tsukino speaking."
"Err, hi, is Serena in?"
"Oh I'm sorry you just missed her. She went out about ten minutes ago."
"D'you know when she'll get back?"
"No, would you like me to get her to call you."
"Um, thanks."
"Is this Seiya calling by any chance?"
"No, actually its Darien."
"Oh . Does she have your number?"
"Erm . Yeah, she does."
"I'll get her to ring you when she gets back then."
"Thanks, bye."
"Goodbye."
He hung up the phone and placed he head in his hands. ~'Is this Seiya calling?' This isn't fair! When I find whoever has done this they are going to pay big time!~
-/Toni?/-
-/What's up cuz? Did you speak to her already?/-
-/She wasn't in./-
-/Oh./-
-/D'you know what her mother asked?/-
-/No, what was it?/-
-/'Is this Seiya calling?'/-
-/Oh man, Darien, I'm so sorry./-
-/Um, me too. Listen I'm going out to see if I can find her, what are you doing?/-
-/Amy's taking me to the Cherry Hill Temple. D'you want me to locate Serena?/-
-/Ok, have fun. I need to clear my head . Also I'm hoping the fates will lead Serena back into my arms./-
-/Ok, tell me if you need me, bye/-
-/Sure thing, see ya!/-

"Sorry about that Amy, Darien just called Serena's." Toni apologised to the girl next to her.
"Oh, what happened?"
"She wasn't in. But her mom asked if it was Seiya that was calling."
"Poor Darien. That wasn't what he wanted to hear. But he's hoping that by walking around Tokyo, the fates will intervene and that Serena will crash into him."
"I hope that happens! Darien always steadied her so hopefully it will bring Serena's love out of the depth of her heart."
"Me too Amy." Toni agreed with her old friend.
Amy thought for a while before asking, "So were you and cousins close to us?"
"Well, yeah, we were. With Serenity and Endymion, we were kinda pushed together. But that was a good thing because, new friendships and relationships were formed."
"Wait, so are you saying that we were in love with your cousins?"
"Yep."
"Was I . Was I involved with anyone?" Amy asked cautiously.
"Well, everyone had their special someone or something. Amara and Michelle were together as they are now; Darien and Serena were practically inseparable. Alex and Trista were engaged as I remember it; Bill and Holly were also an item. You and the other inner scouts were in love with Endymion's royal guards," at Amy's confused look, Toni elaborated, "well you and Zoicyte, Raye and Jedyte, Lita and Nephlyte, and Mina and Malachite . what is it?"
"We helped destroy the ones we loved, how could they turn against us?" Amy asked quietly.
"They went into a dangerous battle against the NegaVerse and we thought they had died, but it seems that Beryl managed to brainwash them. You couldn't have done anything to save them. The attack on the Moon Kingdom was quite sudden and no one expected to see them. In this time the brainwashing had lasted for a thousand years, it wasn't something Serena could have dealed with even if she had known." Amy was still silent, "Ames, I'm sorry that I had to tell you this." Toni put a comforting arm around the younger girl.
"It's ok," Amy cried softly, "I'm glad I know, I'm sure I would have remembered sometime anyway. Look here's the Temple, I should work on the letters' disappearance. I'll see you late. Bye Toni." Amy hurried off down the street.
~Oh Amy, I'm sorry I said anything.~ She sighed deeply and walked up the Temple steps. At the top of the of the steps, Toni found herself looking at a raven haired beauty, a scruffy brown haired man, a short old man and a girl with blond pigtails in an unusual style. ~Well Serena's here, Raye's here with her grandfather and secret love.~ She smiled as she listened to their thoughts. ~Darien'd kill me, but hey, I'm doing this for him . I need to know what's going on in Serena's head.~
Toni decided not to tell Darien where Serena was, ~If he wants to literally bump into her, he's not gonna want me telling him where to go.~
"Oh Hello, Welcome to the Cherry Hill Temple." The old man said, "You can call me Grandpa, and this is my granddaughter Raye and my apprentice Chad." He gestured to the two beside him, "And this is Raye's friend Serena. Are you new in town?"
"Yeah, I've just come here with my cousin." She answered politely.
"Chad and I have some duties to attend to but if you need anything, just ask Raye and she'll be happy to help," 'Grandpa' and Chad said goodbye and walked into the Temple.
"So how did you hear of our temple or did you just walk past it?" Raye enquired.
"My cousin had been here before and told me about it. He decided to go for a walk to get used to the city again while I tried to find it. I got kinda lost and stumbled into three girls quite literally and they showed me the way." Toni played with the truth a little.
"So you walked right into them?" Serena asked and continued with Toni's nod of the head, "I'm always doing that. I found it annoying at first and then I enjoyed it." The girls laughed.
"So what, did you walk straight into the perfect guy?" Toni asked knowing the answer.
"Yeah," Serena sighed deeply and Toni could here her mental voice calling out for Darien.
"I'm Toni by the way."
"As my grandpa said, I'm Raye and this is my friend Serena. Is Toni short for anything?"
"Yep, Antonia. Does your grandpa get everyone to call him that or is it his real name?" Once again Toni knew the answer already.
"He just likes everyone to call him that, I do and he's not my grandpa," Serena giggled.
"Serena, if you can show Toni around the Temple, I can get on with looking into your problem," Raye instructed.
"Ok, c'mon, the temple's really pretty." Serena started to drag Toni away.
"Bye, nice meeting you."
"And the same to you."
~ * ~ * ~
Serena had showed Toni around the Temple and then suggested that they go for a drink. They ended at the Crown Arcade.
"Hi Andrew!" Serena shouted across the room at the blond haired man. "Come on, let's get a seat, Andrew'll come and serve us in a minute." Once again Toni felt a strong pressure on her arm as Serena dragged her around.
While they waited for Andrew, three boys came in and waved at Serena. They came and sat with the two girls.
"Hey Baby," one greeted.
"Hi Seiya." She kissed him gently on the cheek and turned to Toni. "Toni this is my boyfriend Seiya and his brothers Taiki and Yaten. Guys this is Toni a new friend of mine." A chorus of Hi's and Hello's followed that.
Before much conversation could commence, Andrew came over to take their orders. "Hi everyone," he greeted.
"Andrew this is-"
"We met yesterday didn't we Toni?"
"Yep."
"Toni's a friend of Darien's Serena," Andrew informed, "Have you seen him?"
Before anyone could reply or ask anything else, Toni felt a tap on her shoulder. "Hey Cuz!" Toni turned around and saw someone she didn't expect to see.
