The other Scouts waited patiently in the waiting room to find out what was
the matter with their friend. Darien decided to leave Serena's room so
that she could sleep. Amy stayed behind in Serena's room to make sure
that Serena was most comfortable. Darien thought," How could Serena be
pregnant again? We were told that we could not have any more children
after Rini was born because of Serena's diabetes.
When Darien got back to the waiting room, Rini was the first to get up and
ask about her mother. Darien responded," She is fine but sleeping. There
are going to be some changes made around here. Scouts, speaking to
everyone except for Rini, you are to remain in your Princess and help me
with the affairs of state unless you are needed else where." Rae, Lita,
Amara, Michelle, Hotaru, and Mina asked all at the same time why for the
sudden change. Darien responded," Girls, I will explain my reasons for the
changes in a moment. Rini, I need to talk to you alone," the king then
said. Rini responded, "Ok, Daddy."
The two left the other Scouts for a few minutes to go to another room.
When they got to the other room, the king then said," Rini, sweetheart, I
have something very important to talk to you about." Rini looked at her
adored father and wonder what could be so important. The king smiled at
his beloved daughter and said, " Rini, You are going to be a big sister."
Rini looked puzzled at her father and responded, " I am what?" Darien then
responded, " Your mother and I are going to have a baby. Rini, I need you
to take over as the leader of the Scouts, and it will be a big
responsibility for you to handle and I believe that you have earned the
right." Rini grabbed her father and gave him the biggest hug and, " I love
you, Daddy. I will make you proud." "Rini, I am already proud of you
which is why is one of the reasons why I need to take your mother's place
as the leader of the Sailor Scouts", Darien responded.
Darien and Rini walked back to the waiting room to where the Sailor were
waiting for them. Lita, Rae, Mina, Michelle, Hotaru, and Amara rose to
their feet as Rini and Darien entered the room. Darien said, " Scouts,
Rini will be your new leader on any mission. You are to protect her as you
would Serena if she was there." The Girls then asked why. Darien then
responded, " Serena will not be fighting along side of you due to her
diabetes and we are going to be having another baby. The Girls all ran to
Darien and gave him a big hug in Congratulations for the new prince or
princess that is to be on the way. Darien then said that he needed to go
and check on Serena and only Rini was allowed to come with him at this
time. The Girls bowed before Darien before changing into their princess
forms. Their planetary signs formed on each of their foreheads while their
dresses became dresses in the planetary colors but in princess style.
Rae's dress was red and her sign is the sign of the planet Mars and so on.
Rini transformed into her princess form as well with a dress in white color
and the crescent moon upon her forehead. She always did this before she
went to talk to her mother in the throne room. Amy was the only one that
did not transform into her princess state because she was the only doctor
close enough to Neo Queen Serenity to know about her health and what is
going on with her. Amy and the rest of the girls could call the king
Darien while the servants had to call him Neo King Endymion but if the
girls were in front of the king when the servants were around they would
address him Neo King Endymion. Rini was called Princess Serenity because
she was named after her mother but Sailor Pluto always called her Small
Lady but she wanted to be called Rini instead. Rini and Darien walked down
the hallway and turned to see the door to Serena's room was closed
