Chapter 1: An Interesting Morning

It was a peaceful and beautiful morning in the town known as Sunnydale, California, which was just an hour outside of Los Angeles. The sun was just rising and a whole new day was just beginning. In a large white and green house thats number was 5302 Twilight Lane in a fairly large bedroom that was silver, black, and gold, a young girl is seen sleeping peacefully in her bed. The bed itself was a Queen with sheets of black silk and little stars and moons printed on it. It was a canopy bed and quite elaborate because of its metal frame and beautiful structure. The walls of the room were painted a simple black that went well with the bed spread and sheets yet the cieling was a different story. It was painted black as well yet decorated with a silver moon and gold and silver stars. The furniture was black as well and seemed to have gold and silver moons and stars on them as well. The theme of the room was the night sky, which showed the creator's passion for mystery, romance, and magic. The room was quite a sight to see and beautifully decorated as well as exquistedly painted.

The creator and owner of the room, was the girl sleeping peacefully under the black silk covers. She had hair as soft as silk and the color of the sun's beams with silver highlights in it. Her face had a serene appearance to it, making her look like a sleeping angel. An angel undisturbed by the rising sun or the coming of a new day. An angel that had fallen onto earth and taken the place of a human girl. An angel with a great destiny to furfill and no cares in the world. Just a simple angel that was a young girl, no older than 16 with a heart of gold. It was as if the world knew that this simple girl was special and that it was giving her the peace she needed. An everlasting peace that would never end, unless she wished it too.

Yet fate seemed to want to interfere with this peace, because at that exact moment when the clock's numbers switched from 6:29 a.m. to 6:30 a.m., a loud annoying undescribable noise could be heard throughout the room. The girl's hand hit a button on the clock, silencing the dreadful tune. She yawned and sat up, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. The eyes that were once closed, were now opened and showed pools of endless sapphire blue. The eyes reflected confusion, happiness, excitment and wonder in their depths. The young girl looked around, taking in the features of the room. From the black walls, to the black furniture, and to the black silk sheets that her hands rested upon. She could only gasp in wonder and a happy smile could be seen forming on her full ruby red lips. A smile that reflected what she was feeling inside and a smile that symoblizing that her wish had come true. She was a new person now, and could start a whole new life.

She climbed out of bed and studied everything in the room. From the silk sheets to the simple black pencil on her desk. She sighed happily and giggled. "Looks like Puu was right.....Everything is different.....Wonder what my parents and family are like?" She smiled at the thought and decided to see if anything else changed besides her life. She walked slowly over to the floor length mirror, that hung on the back of the black door to her closet. The mirror reached from the top of the door to the bottom. It was silver with unique designs of stars, moons, and other signs she didn't recongize. It was a piece of art yet simple at the same time. She sighed and took a deep breath. She than stepped in front of the mirror and studied her reflection. She could only gasp and stare at her reflection with wonder and excitment clearly shown on her angelic face.

She was no longer the gawky, skinny, small, crybaby, 16 year old, Serena Usagi Moonstone. She was entirefly a new different person with a new name and everything. Her dark blonde ankle length hair, azul blue eyes, gawky, skinny, and small frame of 5'4, and innocent and naive appearance was no more. She now had sun-kissed golden blonde hair that shone with a light of its own and fell to her waist in waves with silver highlights that blended in perfectly with the gold, endless pools of sapphire blue for eyes reflecting maturity, knowledge, secrets, and happiness, a slender, angelic frame, a height of 5'8, smooth, pale ivory skin, a matured body that any woman would envy to have, and a powerful aura displaying her strength and loyalty to her friends and family. She giggled and smiled, liking her new appearance and new pajamas too, which were black silk pajama bottoms with silver stars and moons and a black silk pajama tank top that had the word "Angel" written on it in clear gemstones.

She stared at her complextion and could only smile happily. 'This is me. The new and improved me. I am no longer Serenity (Serena) Usagi Moonstone. I am now..............................................' Her train of thought stops as she tries to think of her new name. "Who am I?" She sighs and than as if fate knew, the name slowly came to her mind with a bunch of other names and memories that she didn't recongize or ever heard of. 'I am Skyler Alexis Danes, Daughter of Micheal and Andrea Danes. I am known as Skye or Alex to my friends and have just recently come back from boarding school in England. I was sent there to learn the proper ways of being a young lady yet also dancing, singing, painting, writing literature, learning to speak, read, and translate new languages, and many other things that I cannot begin to describe. I came back because my parents missed me as well as my sisters and brothers. I am starting my first day of my new life and will attend Sunnydale High School just like my two sisters and brother. My father, Micheal Danes, is the founder and owner of Emerald Banks, which is an International Banking Enterprise that can be found all over the world. My mother, Andrea Danes, is the founder and owner of Silver Moon Cafe and Resturants, which can be found all over the world too. They love each other deeply and we are all one big happy family.'

Skyler turned away from her reflection and walked over to her door. She opened it and walked into the hall. As if it were timed, she suddenly heard. "Skyler!!! Get up sweetie!!! Its time to get ready for school!!!!" She could only smile and call back. "Ok mom!!!" She then ran back into her room, grabbed her uniform as if she worn it all of her life, and ran towards the bathroom, closing it before her brother, Samuel, could even reach it.

Samuel sighs aggrivated and yells. "Skye!!!! I was going in there!!!! You are so selfish!!!!"

Skye could only giggle and yell. "You snooze, you lose, Sammy!!!" A pain of sorrow goes through her body as she remembers that was what her other brother's nickname was. Yet this Sammy adored his sister and loved her with all his heart. He would do anything to keep her from getting hurt. Unlike her other brother Sammy, who loved to make fun of her, get her in trouble, and torture her to make him feel a bit of happiness in his sad excuse of a life.

She sighed and slowly climbed into the shower, after removing her pajamas of course. She than turned the shower knob and warm water started to fall steadily on her back. She closed her eyes, enjoying the soothing sensation while thinking. 'I am no longer Serenity Usagi Moonstone. I am now Skyler Alexis Danes and I will live her life. A life I should of had from the beginning. And most of all, a life without the Scouts, Darien and my ex-family' A pang of regret goes through my heart as I remember, the outer senshi, my only true friends and real protectors. I think to myself. 'I will see them again one day. They never hurt me and I know them never will. Amara, Michelle, Hotaru, Setsuna. Don't worry. I will always be your princess and friend, no matter what.'

Meanwhile, Sammy sighed reluctantly and walked away rejectedly. He walked right into his older sister Selena, who caught him before he fell.

Selena smirked and punched his arm lightly. "Hey Sam. Whats eating you?"

Sammy shrugged. "Nothing Kel. Just Skye being her normal annoying self."

Selena laughed. "Thats Alex-baka for yah. Hey why don't you go down and have some breakfast? I'll deal with Sleeping Beauty Baka."

Sammy smiled and laughed. "Ok Kel. Have fun!!!"

Selena nodded and pushed him a bit. "I will. Don't worry Squirt."

Sammy glared at her and yelled. "I am not Squirt!!! Squirt is Taylor, you baka!!!"

Selena shrugged. "Must of slipped my mind."

All of a sudden, they both hear. "Stop fighting you two!!! Samuel get down here and eat your breakfast!!! Selena you better be getting ready or I will personally send up Tiffany to make sure you do!!!"

The two took one look at each other and nodded.

"Bye Squirt!!!"

"Bye--Hey!!! My name is Sammy!!! Not Squirt, Kel-baka!!!"

And the two of them went their separate ways while a laughing Skye was still taking a shower while thinking. 'This is my real family and for once, I looks forward to school. Besides, it looks like this is going to be an interesting day anyways.'
