A/N: I couldn't wait to do the next chapter so here I am writing it! I hope you like it! I'll take any suggestions as to who Serena should be paired with, No Darien WILL NOT be a consideration, I'm leaning towards Kunzite/Malachite anyways. But you all could change my mind if you wish to try. I've gotten ideas for Seiya from one reader (sorry if your name isn't here, u know who u are, thank you! And everyone else!) It could also be an original character since I had some suggestions for that too. Artemis will also not be in consideration, I'm keeping him for another story ^_~
A/N: Sorry, many notes tonight. To "A Reader", who freakin FLAMED me, how incredibly rude! Haven't you ever heard of a prologue?? So now I laugh at you and your review has been deleted, due to idiotic criticism. Thank you to all my OTHER reviewers, I appreciate your thoughts and suggestions very much!

Title: Becoming Another
Chapter Two
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~***
The next day was a hectic Thursday. The police found an eighteen year old girl in the woods just east of the Cherry Hill Temple. They couldn't understand how she'd gotten out there or why, for she definitely didn't look like a girl who went to parties, drank, or did anything illegal for that matter. Her blonde hair went to the ground and was a bit tangled from her sleep in the forest, but she stayed slumbering all the way to the hospital.
***
" Are you sure officer?!? In the woods??? Yes, I'm on my way!" Ken put down the phone and ran into the living room, starting to slip on his shoes and coat, then grabbed his keys and flew out the door. He'd call his wife later, all that mattered right now was his precious little girl.
***
Serena moaned and tiredly put a hand to her aching head. She felt like hell had made a personal attack on her, somewhat close to the truth she realized later on. Something was wrong though, her surroundings were not the walls of her dark pink bedroom at home, and their was a beeping sound to Serena's right. Groggily, she pushed herself up in the bed she was in and looked around. The walls were white and the ceiling tiles looked old and had yellow patches from water stains. Serena found herself to be clad in a white and blue checkered hospital gown, and a ID bracelet around her small wrist.
- What's going on?!? How the heck did I get into a hospital? Where are my parents?…Oh my head kills! I feel so drained and…empty…- Her eyelids slid shut and suddenly a piercing scream came from her lips to shake the very foundations of the hospital.
A nurse in the hall ran in quickly, her cheeks flushed, and her eyes darting every where in concern. Finally the green of the nurse's eyes fell on the blonde girl sobbing loudly in her bed.
" Miss? What's wrong dear?!" The nurse hugged her close in a motherly fashion until the doctors arrived with a man with dark brown hair close on their heels. The man pushed in front of the doctors and practically threw the nurse of the girl as he pulled her to his lap and petted her hair to quiet her.
" Serena, bunny, shhhh. It's alright bunny, calm down…that's a girl…"Ken Tsukino held his little girl this way until she just laid her head on his shoulder and let herself be rocked back and forth by her dad.
" Mr. Tsukino, I'll be back in ten minutes to give her an exam. I'm guessing she was just scared from what ever may have happened to her." Doctor Terra, a young man who looked no older than Serena with very light blue/almost white wavy short hair and light crystal blue eyes. He was tall and his forehead has a strange mark. He smiled at them and with one last glance went out the room and shut the door behind him.
" Daddy, am I scaring you? I don't want to mess up your new job and…" Serena looked up at her father with concerned reddened eyes and streaked cheeks.
" No, no your not messing anything up Bunny. You scared me a bit when you were crying. What were you doing in the forest so late at night?" Concerned and puzzled emotions swam in her father's blue eyes.
- I can't tell them about the Senshi, he wouldn't believe me since I can't point any of them out, I miss them all. I feel as if I've betrayed them…what should I say…maybe it would be a good time to insert some acting…- She thought for a second and let her mind go blank with confusion, making her outward appearance look the same and her eyes got a glossed look to them.
" I-I don't remember daddy. Every things blank!" The blonde haired girl jumped up and began to pace frantically, all the while congratulating herself on her great acting.
" Bunny, please sit down! You've had a hard night, just rest, and don't worry about it. Your safe now, that's all that matters." Something in his words made Serena squirm and she consented with his order and laid down.
- I'm safe, but is the world?- She didn't want to sound arrogant, but she'd always been the person to save everyone from evil. What was she going to do with that gone from her life?

* A Week Later *
The annoying sound of her blue alarm clock rang painfully in her ears, urging her from dreamland. A grin graced her lips when it went with a thunck to the dark blue of her carpet. With a groan Serena lifted her blankets off her body and weakly got out of bed. She felt strange for a minute and glanced around her room…no it was still a dark pink and everything was the same.
She meandered over to the cherry wood vanity across the room and sat down, rubbing tiredness from her eyes. Dazedly Serena glanced into the mirror…and screamed.
**
Should I end it?? Nah, I'm not that mean! Just a side note, the others didn't betray Serena, the fates just hate Serena for going against her destiny, which doesn't have any hold on her now. I'll never do this again, so don't worry! Read on!!

" Sere! What's with all the wailin'?! You nearly blew my ears out!" Sammy stalked into his sister's room annoyed for his rude awakening and looked at her shocked and horrified face.
" My-my hair!!! It looks just like moms!!" Serena pulled on her hair making sure it was real, still shocked to no end.
" What do you mean your hair?? I don't see anything wrong with it. Did you have a bad dream or something'?" Sammy walked over to her and leaned over Serena's shoulder, seeing nothing new but her strange expression.
" Oooo and my eyes! I've got dad's eyes! What happened to my original color??" It was baffling, it all felt so knew and unreal!
" Bunny, that is your original color. Did you fall off your bed again?" Sammy now felt concerned for his sister's mental health.
" No, no…I've always looked like this?"
" Yes, you have, so hurry up and get dressed. I've got to get to school early today and your driving me." He shook his head and walked out, wondering if she'd gone insane from her trip into the forest or not.
Serena couldn't move. Her entire body paralyzed at the sight of her new hair and eyes. She'd gone to bed with long blonde hair and blue eyes, now she woke up with this. A hand passed through the wavy softness of her dark blue hair, it was the same color as her mothers. And her eyes, they weren't the pretty glacier blue, but now the dark chocolate brown of her father's. Serena had to admit, it didn't look bad on her at all, but it was the fact of how she got it. The fates weren't messing with her now, it was Queen Serenity who had totally disowned the reincarnation of her daughter.
" Well, I'll just have to show them what beating destiny is like then." Smiling, she wondered into her bathroom and turned on the shower, preparing herself for a new day. Bunny Tsukino had arrived.
