Hey all! I'm back with another chapter. I tried to get this in as early as possible, but hey what could I do. Anyway, I'd like to thank starfury3000 for reviewing the last chapter. And just to clarify things, they are older. Serena is 21 and Sammy is 19. And on with the story…

~*~….~*~ means "backflash"

Last Time in All The Good In The World…

"Come on, Molls. I have a feeling about this. Let's go check it out."

"Huh? Why? Bunny! What going on!", Molly yelled to her best friend. All the while, Serena practically ran to the scene. Panting from either running or nerves, she didn't know.

"Bunny. Sere. Serena. What has gotten into… Oh Serena!" Her last words faded as they neared the place and saw what was in front of her.

Now for Chapter Three: Who Could It Have Been?

"Oh God no! No. No! NO! Sammy!! Sammy!! Where are you? SAMMY!!" Silent tears were now coursing down her cheeks like a river. Her brother. Where was her brother? That was blue Ford Mustang that's at the bottom of the cliff, but he had to have jumped out. He had to. So where was he? "Molly, you have to help me find him!"

"Alright Serena. Calm down, we'll find him. C'mon. Let's go." With that they ran off.

"Sammy! Where are you?" That was her mantra for a good minute or two while she ran around searching for him, before the police started to ask her questions seeing as she was running around looking for the owner of the car.

"It's my brother's car… but he has to be around here somewhere. He can't be down there. H…he… he… he just can't be!" That's when she lost it. All her grief, all her pain, all of it came out. Finding Molly, they both sobbed until they couldn't anymore. 'Nooo!! Sammy!! This can't be happening. I just saw you an hour ago. You can't leave me, Dammit!! You can't. You promised me you'll protect me. Can't have you breaking promises now, can I? Sammy!! Why?!?' Serena couldn't concentrate as she was being asked to give the officers details about her brother and Mika, who was also in the car at the time. 'Poor Mika. She didn't deserve to die. Oh God! Her parents! What they must be feeling? How are they going to deal with the loss of their daughter?' She knew what it felt to lose someone. Sammy knew what it was to lose someone. They both lost their parents last year in the September 11 disaster. They had gone to Paris to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. On their way back to Los Angeles, they took a plane that was going to California, but it was hijacked and crashed in the woods outside of Pittsburgh. It was said that her father was one of those who went into the cockpit. Now Mika's parents lost a great girl and wonderful woman. She would need to contact them about this.

Molly, by now, had already contacted Melvin to tell him of the situation and to get him to pick them up. A half-hour passed informing the officers of all that she could, trying not to break down again with Molly's help, when two detectives walked up to her.

"Hello miss. My name is Detective Chad William and this is Detective Greg Brown. We have a couple of other questions for you, if you don't mind?"

"No. Of course not. Anything that I can help you with. By the way, my name is Serena Tsukino and this is my close friend Molly Matthews."

"Nice to meet you Ms. Tsukino, Ms. Matthews. It is very unfortunate that we all meet under these circumstances. Now, did your brother have any enemies that you knew about? Anyone with motives against him?"

"No, none that I knew of. Why do you ask officer?"

"Well," Detective Williams continued, "our Forensics Specialist noticed that the brake line on the car was very neatly cut and that he was rammed very hard from behind." Detective Brown picked up the conversation, "If you follow me over here miss, you can see that both your brother's car, which is the blue mark, and the other car, which is the red, collided here. Regrettably, your brother's car was the one that fell over and not the other car. Also, here are pictures of your brother's car. Now, you don't have to look, I understand, but let me show you the huge dent in the rear of the car from where the red car hit Mr. Tsukino with incredible force as to purposefully get him to lose control. That is why we suspect foul play." Serena couldn't believe it! This was no accident! Her brother had actually been killed! But who could've done this? Who would want him dead? Who could've… 'Oh God! I could've been in the car! What if I was meant to die and not them? What if it was meant for me?' At this realization, she remembered what Diamond had told her earlier that day.

~*~ 'You'll regret this, Serena. Believe me, you'll regret this. No one, and I mean NO ONE messes with me and gets away with it.' ~*~

"He couldn't have done this. Could he?"

"What was that ma'am? What did you ask?" Realizing her mistake, she quickly corrected it by saying,

"Oh no detective. I was just… I was just saying to myself that he… uh… he…"

"What she meant to say was that Sammy couldn't have lost control of his car so easily. Isn't that right, Serena?", Molly said this while underhandedly telling Serena that she knew where her thoughts were leading.

"Yes, yes. That is what I meant. Thank you Molly." Warily, both detectives eyed them, but disregarded it.

"Well, Ms. Tsukino, Ms. Matthews. Thank you again for your information. Here are our cards if anything should arise. Again, you have our condolences."

"Thank you very much and I will call if anything new comes up. Good night." And with that, Melvin was found and they all left to go to Serena's empty house. On they way there, Molly contemplated,

"Do you really think Diamond did it?"

"I don't know Molls. This is all too much for me. I just can't believe Sammy's gone." Serena's soft weeping put an end to all conversation on the ride home. When they got there, Molly told Melvin that was sleeping over because of all that has happened and doesn't feel right to leave Serena by herself. When he left and Molly went to go change, the phone rang again. Serena was near it and thought that it might be Melvin calling back to see if they needed anything. So when she answered the phone, she was totally surprised, for the person on the other side was none other than,

"Diamond!! Why the hell are you calling me? Didn't I make it clear enough to leave me alone!?", she told him with all the venom she had.

"Well dear, I'm just calling to say that I'm sorry for your loss. I heard what happened and wanted to go over to comfort you, but of course that stupid restraining order is in the way. How about it, hmm? Take it away so I can come over to make you feel better?"

"What kind of a sick bastard are you?!? My brother just died and all you want to do is make me feel better?? I bet you had something to do with this didn't you, you asshole."

"Come on, now. You can come up with a better pet name than that! As for your question, maybe, maybe not. I told not to mess with me. Now if you want to listen to me for once, I suggest that you come to me willingly or things will get ugly. And if you go to the police, wouldn't it be a shame if your dear friend Molly ended up like your brother? This is only the beginning Serena, only the beginning I tell you." (click) Ending the phone conversation, Serena could help but let her heart-wrenching sobs come out. How could he do this? Didn't he say he loved her? You don't do that for the one you love. Just then, she heard glass shatter and something akin to sounding like bullet shots and screaming coming from Molly in the other room. Serena ran in there to see what happened only to barely dodge a whizzing bullet.

"Molly! What's going on?"

"Get down Serena! Someone's shooting." Serena knew immediately who was behind this and ran to where Molly was hiding through the gunfire and said,

"I know who's doing this. It's Diamond. He… he… just called and basically told me that he killed Sammy and now he's trying to kill me! Oh God Molly! What am I going to do? I can't go to the police or he'll… he'll hurt another person." Serena didn't want to worry her with that specific detail where she could be the next person on his list. "I have to get out of here Molly! I need to leave the city. I don't need someone else getting hurt." By this time, the shots ceased and wheels screeching could be heard. All in all, there were 17 shots fired, a huge mess in her living room and police sirens could be heard a distance aways.

"C'mon! Let's get out of here, NOW! The cops can't find you here or else they'd know you're connected. You ARE staying at my place. I don't exactly know what's going on, but if it's Diamond, he's is gone for now and will only come back soon." So they packed all that they could before the cops got there and left. Two weeks passed by without incident. Serena decided to tell Molly the details, except for the threat against her, and grieved for Sammy. When she thought that all was quiet and calm, Serena decided that it was all right to go back to asses the damages and told Molly of this. Once there, she tried to get her place in some kind of order. While going though the mail, she thought, 'Goodness, that's a lot of mail!' Making piles that separated bills from everything else, she came upon a letter with an address from Italy. 'Who could this be?' Opening it, she could barely contain her joy. Maybe things are looking up after all. Mina had finally decided to write to her. The timing couldn't have been more perfect. Mina explained about who sorry she was for not keeping in touch. First of all, she moved around a lot. Then, when she did finally settle down, her letters kept returning as "Return to Sender". She tried calling, but could never get through. Just when she was going to give up, she decided to give it one more try. If it came back, she would just end up on Serena's doorstep one day to visit.

Thinking how lovely it would be to see her dear cousin again, Serena's mind kicked in and started to think what a good idea it would be if she left for Milan to go with Mina and forget this horrible place. 'Bingo!' With her decision made, she packed only the items that she absolutely needed, including a family album, more clothes, a few mementos and, of course, the letter and ran to her car. Looking back, she thought, 'Goodbye house. I'll ALWAYS remember the good times here.' After saying this, she got in her car and drove away to her friend's house, never to come back.

"Molly, I have to go. It's the only way I can get away without harming those close to me. He won't even know where I have gone. All I need you to do is take care of these things for me.", Serena said while handing her a sheet of paper. Molly read its contents with wide eyes.

"Alright Bunny. I'll see what I can do. No matter how long it takes, I'll do them. I'll even get Melvin to help." The two laughed for a while before Serena spoke,

"What? Him selling a house? I can't see him negotiating at all! Remember that one project Mr. Himden gave us about applying math to real-life experiences? All Melvin got from haggling his life savings was a goldfish! Ah, but anyway, I will call you on your cell when I can to give you my information. I don't want to risk it incase the "psycho" bugged your home phones. I wouldn't put it past him." After a moments silence, "Oh, Molly, be careful. I know he'll harass you to get you to tell him where I am. I guess the only thing I have left to say is that if for some reason your life, or that of your family, gets put in danger, don't hesitate to tell him anything. I couldn't live with myself if anything happened to you. To any of you.", Serena indicated to Molly's now slightly round tummy. Both of them hugged and cried until they felt it necessary to breathe.

"I won't promise you anything, Bunny, but I'll promise you this. We will be okay. Okay? I will take care of my husband and child." The cab Serena called for pulled up and started to help her with her luggage.

"I'll miss you Molls."

"I'll miss you too."

"Like I said, I'll call you when I can. You know this isn't good bye." As, the cab pulled away, they both waved each other good bye. Serena looked out the window and thought, 'I wonder what my life will be like from now on?' And that is how we find Serena. Gazing out of her window in a taxi in Milan.

Just so you know, the plane was headed to San Francisco, but for the purposes of my story, I only said it was headed to California as they live in L.A.

Well, there you have it. Another chapter by me. I tried to have it out earlier, but life got in the way. By the way I turned 20 on June 4th. Yay me! Well, this chapter has no Italian words, so no word list is here again. Please tell me what you think of it. Good or bad reviews are accepted, since it all is constructive criticism. I would really like for my story to sound good, for as you can see, I'm no English major. You could also send me an email if you prefer. It is: tenwood_10@yahoo.com.
