"That was the strangest battle I have ever been in" Lita commented as she landed onto the balcony.


"Strange?! That was downright weird! I mean this
is ,what, the first time we've ever been drunk and not to mention had to go fight! Plus half the time we were bustin' out with songs!" Mina added as she landed next to Lita.


Slowly one by one all the scouts were appearing on the balcony. Quickly and quietly they slipped inside before anyone could see them. Simultaneously they all detransformed.


"God" Serena breathed hanging her head, "This is one screwy day"


"Where are Artemis and Luna? I would have bet that they would be right here when we came" remarked Darien.


"We are here" Luna answered, "How was the battle?"


"Very ususual" Ami stated. Luna began to speak, "Lets just leave it at that"


"Yeah the important thing is that we beat the hell outta Tonka and her ugly offsprings" added Lita.


Serena grabbed a chair and sat down. "So Luna, if you weren't pacing up and down waiting for us to come back then what were you doing?"


"I can bet what they were doing" Mina hinted, "You and Artemis were probably spending some quality time together catching up on......"


"We certainly were not!!!" Luna interupted.


"Luna don't worry about Mina. She's still in hangover mode. Now you can tell us what happend" Serena declared.


"Thank you Serena. We were taking care of business. You guys are obviously tired so I want you to get some rest first. I want you all to be well rested in case there is another youma attack" Luna replied.


"Oh but we wanna know now!" Raye protested.


"Okay. How bout this. We go change, grab some grub with out the tequila of course, and then we can swap adventures!" Lita suggested.


"Great idea Lita!" Raye exclaimed, "Okay we can all meet in the den!"


"Great idea!! TALLEY HOE!!!!!" Mina yelled charging towards the den.


Sweatdrop.


"Okay lets go" Ami said slowly, following. Everyone made their way to the den to get their bags.


Darien laughed and turned towards Serena. "So I guess....huh? Where'd she go" he wondered looking around.







Darien's Room







"Why?!!!" she cried, "Why is this happening to me? What have I done to deserve this?!"


"I don't understand! Who was that? He was just like Darien. He felt just like him. Oh kami I've betrayed him!! If he finds out he'll hate me forever and never forgive me!!"


"It's not fair!!" she yelled punching the pillow, "Why?! All I ever wanted to be was normal! I wanted to fall in love, not have some prince and someone I don't even know lust after me. I wanted to have fun, not have to fight to ensure mine and my friends lives. I wanted to grow up, have children, and have a happy life, not grow up to be queen of the world! I wanna be me and not a princess!!" she yelled still pounding into the pillow.


Suddenly someone grabbed her wrist as she was about to slam it into the pillow again. Serena looked up through her watery red eyes then launched herself into the person's arms.


"I...I'm sorry" she stuttered, "It's just that all of this is happening so quickly" Darien hugged her tighter.


"It's okay Serena. You just need some down time. Now I want you to tell me about this guy you kissed that looked like me" Serena looked away. Darien gently grabbed her chin and turned it back to his face.


"Serena. I know you're keeping things from me but I want you to know that I love you and that you can tell me anything. I don't want you to go through anything alone while I'm around" he whispered soothingly.


Serena sniffed. "I..I..I don't want to worry you. We all have enough problems without everyone worrying about me"


Darien sighed. "Sere, that's what we're here for. I love you and so do the scouts. We won't know how to protect you if you keep important issues like this to yourself. You understand?"


Serena sighed, defeated, then nodded. "I'm sorry. I guess the pressure's just gettin' to me"


"Understanable. Come on Meatball Head, lets get you cleaned up" Darien offered, taking her hand and leading her to the bathroom. He switched on the light. Serena turned on the sink and let it fill up half way.


She turned to Darien. "Could you bring my blue duffel bag please? It's inside by the t.v."


"Sure" he said before disappering into the room. Serena took this time to carefully examine her face.


"Oh man!! And on top of everything my face looks like a sack of three year old potatoes!" Her eyes and nose were red and irratated. Wet tear lines graced her flushed cheeks.


"What an absolutely great time to look like crap!"


Dipping her hands into the water she began the task of cleaning her worned face.


"Ah, that feels much better" she said drying her face off.


A thought struck her. 'What happened to Darien' She lowered the towel from her face and looked up to the doorway. There Darien stood, her bag at his feet, a goofy loving look on his face.


"You've been there the entire time haven't you?!" Serena demanded.


Darien laughed. "Yep. Whatcha gonna do about it short stuff?" he challenged, grin in place.


Serena's eyes twitched. He was TRYING to provoke her. 'Well then, I just won't let him get any satisfaction in seeing me angry!' Placing the towel softly on the sink she raised her eyes til they were level with his.


"If you will excuse me SIR. I need to change" Serena said calmly grabbing her bag.


Darien scowled. 'Damn she figured out what I was doing. Well I can still catch her off guard!' He stooped down to her face.


"I can think of better things to do, love" Darien said sexily leaning forward.


Serena smiled. 'Bad move, buddy!!'


Impatiently Darien thought he was about brush with Serena's lips so he moved forward. Serena took her index finger and pushed it into his forehead. With out warning Darien fell backwards.


His eyes snapped opened in surprise as his back connected with his bedroom's carpeting. He looked up to the doorway. There Serena stood, the smug look of victory on her face.


Serena grinned evily. "Don't let the door hit you when the dog should have bit you! Goodbye!" she announced before slamming the door.


Darien stayed on the floor gazing at the door his mouth wide open.


'Something's not right. I know it was just a little joke, but something was so cold and calculated about it. Something's different about her. I must find out what it is'





Across the hall





Mina laid on the bed in the guest room in deep thought.


'Oh Serena. I hate that all of this is happening to you. You were right you know. Diamond does love, he also lusts for you. But there's someone else too. But he's more powerful, more possessive, and even more dangerous.'


'sigh I wish I knew who was it was though. It would make this a whole lot easier'


Mina rubbed her temples. "All this thinking is making my head hurt"


"I should get dressed anyway. The others are probably already done and are wanting for me!" she said digging into her bag.

"I wonder what Luna was doing that was so important?" Raye asked absently chewing on a baby carrot.


"I have no idea" Ami said pouring a big bag of tortilla chips into a large bowl.


"Hey Raye where did you get that shirt? I've been looking for one just like that for a while now" Lita asked eyeing her short sleeved red shirt which had 'Made in the 90s' imprinted in silver lettering on the front.


"Oh I got it in some store on tenth street. I remember where it was so I'll show it to you when all this crap is over" she replied.


"You look like you're going somewhere, with SOMEONE. Care to tell us Raye" Mina asked entering the large kitchen.


"Me?! Ha!! You look like your going to a picnic at noon in the park!" Raye retorted.


"Hey!" Mina protested placing her hands on her hips, "I don't know what your implying by that comment!"


She looked down at her orange sundress. "I look good thank you very much."


"Calm down V" Lita said pelting a grape at her. Mina stuck her tongue out at her before plopping on to a bar stool by the counter.


She peered over. "Whatcha making Ames?"


"Salsa" she replied stirring in some chopped green peppers.


"Wow! I didn't know that we had a regular Martha Steward on our hands" Raye joked.


"Well I don't trust Lita here making anything until an hour has passed" Ami shrugged.


"Hey! I feel perfectly fine now! My hangover is gone!!!" Lita squawked.


Ami laughed. "It's just an hour!"


"Yeah, sure whatever! Anyway Mina why did you decide to where a sundress anyway! I mean all we're gonna be doing here is lounging around and planning. Why would you wear something as uncomfortable as that!" Lita question.


"Well cause it's cute and plus you can never be too careful. I mean what if some super cute plummer guy comes over!" Mina chimed.


"Geez Mina. And anyway I prefer my own attire over some stuffy sundress!" Lita retorted reffering to her own black tank top and scooby-doo sweatpants.


"Whatever! Just cause you don't like dresses doesn't mean I don't have to!" Mina answered.


"ANYWAY" Raye emphazided, "Ames where'd you get that skort? It's really tight"


Ami blushed looking down at her white t-shirt and powder blue skort. "I got it at Rainbow last Saturday. I was looking for a that new book store when I saw it in the window. It was so cute that I had to buy it!"


"Let's turn on the tube. I wanna see what's on at 3" Lita said hopping up to turn on the 16 inch Magnavox that was seated in the corner of the room.


"Here's the remote" Ami said throwing it to her. She caught it and pressed power. Immediately the news popped up.


"And you say you saw them in action?" the reporter asked moving the mic to the worker's mouth.


"Hey! That's the construction site!" Raye said shocked as she reconized the backround.


"Yes I did! The scouts were amazing!! They saved us all. And Sailor Moon blew me a kiss before she left" the construction worker rambled.


"There you have it folks. Once again our dear scouts have saved us from the evil of the universe. We will all sleep easy tonight knowing that evil has once again been banished. This is Madison Cortsuan at the Welcher's Construction Site in Osaka. Back to you Akimi"


"Thanks Madison. And now on to local news....." Lita turned off the t.v.


"Well, that was interesting" she commented.


"What's interesting?" Darien asked entering the kitchen.


"We just saw a news report on our fight. Some contrustion worker claimed that he woke up and saw the fight and then Serena blew him a kiss before we left" Ami explained.


"Speaking of Serena where is she? I thought she would have been right behind you?" commented Raye.


Darien was silent for awhile seemingly in deep thought.


"Dar..." Mina began.


"Something's wrong with Serena" he said.


Lita jumped. "What? She seemed fine eailer. What's wrong with her?"


"I know but she was up in my room crying. I was thinking that the pressure of everything was getting to her, but she was crying about someone kissing her that looked just like me"


"WHAT!!!" Mina screamed, "I knew it. I was hoping that I wasn't right"


"Wasn't right about what?" Ami asked confused.


"You guys know that I sometimes feel emotions right? Especially when they're high strung. I felt Diamond's emotions when he first came, but during the fight I suddenly felt someone elses emotions. They were more dangerous and possesive than Diamond's"


"She said that he looked just like me and that's why she kissed him."


"Great. Now there's someone else. As if we didn't have our hands full with that other bastard already" Lita hissed.


"That's not all. Something IS wrong with her. Slowly she's pulling away from me. I don't understand" Darien said hanging his head.


"Hey why are you guys so uptight" Serena asked suddenly coming into the conversation.


"Oh hey Serena. Love the jeans" Mina said quickly.


"Hee Hee, Thanks. They were on sale so you know I had to get them" Serena said looking down at her. Silver threaded surgios and black tank top that said 'Naughty Girl'.


"I think you look great too" Darien remarked coming towards her.


"Oh so you got over that ego bust huh?" she asked smartly. Darien wrapped his arms around her waist.


"Don't think I forgot about that" he said nuzzling Serena's neck.


"Darien! What a naughty boy" Serena giggled pushing him away; and moving towards the counter, "Ooo chips! I am so hungry!!"


"Can't you think of anything else but your stomach spaggetti tails?" Raye laughed.


"Of course. I do occasionally think about taking my septer and shoving it down your throat" Serena countored grabbing a handful of chips.


"You set yourself up to that one Raye" Darien laughed.


"After all these years you still forgot to never leave Sere a verbal opening" Ami giggled.


"Whatever" she huffed.


"Where's Luna and Artemis? They did say that they wanted to talk to us, right?" Serena asked yawning.


"They're probably waiting for us in the den" Mina answered getting up, "We should get in there now before they both have a hernia"

"Damnit!! Where is she then!!" Diamond yelled.


Sapphire cringed. "I don't know Diamond. If I did we probably wouldn't be having this conversation."


Diamond rubbed his temples in fustration. "I'm sorry I snapped at you Sapphire. This issue with Serena is just getting to my nerves"


"Well then you should forget about her then. I mean what good would it do to fraternize with the enemy?"


"Sapphire you are too young to understand the way I feel about Serenity." Diamond replied.


"Hey! I'm eighteen! You're only two years older than me, so don't tell me about being to young!" he protested.


"She's very beautiful and she has the energy that no one else in the universe possesses. It's weird though...." Diamond said laying back in his throne.


"How so brother..." Sapphire questioned.


"Ever time I see her I get this strange feeling inside of me"


"Is it bad? What does it feel like" Sapphire pressed.


Diamond chuckled at his brother's curiousity. "It's just a feeling. I feel warm almost happy even. She's so beautiful, but so is her personality. Not like that hoey hyena"


Sappire laughed knowing who he was talking about.


"Serena's better than that. She's pure. Maybe that's why she's princess of the Moon and queen of Earth"


"So you don't care for retreaving the imperial silver crystal anymore?" he guessed.


"Oh course I still want the crystal. It IS basically the entire mission" Diamond started, "I wish for when she falls for me that she'll willingly give it to me"


"Well then you'll be waiting for awhile then, buddy" Sapphire taunted.


"No. She'll come around. Until then that dark energy that we're administering into her should be amplifying her slight attraction for me ten-fold. She won't be able to take it, and then she'll come to me" he declared.


"That's if Endymion doesn't get in the way" Sapphire insisted.


"I wish to hear no talk of that bastard in my present" he demaned his voice tight with new anger.


"Okay, okay, okay. Calm down. Alright lets put it this way then, her guardians won't let her anywhere near you!" Sapphire corrected.


"It doesn't matter if they like it or not. Eventually Serena will be mine and there's nothing they can do to stop me!" Diamond bellowed.


Sweatdrop.


"You sound like some bad Frankinstein movie" Sapphire noted.


Diamond scowled. "Thanks for the support"


"Always here for advice" Sapphire replied.


"Don't you have work to do?" he asked.


"I don't get paid ya know" he retorted.


"Just go before I give you a massive wedgie!" Diamond hollared.


"HA HA!! One for me and none for you! You snapped first! Should I get you some water to swallow down that defeat?" Sapphire snickered.


"Just get out!!!" he hollared again.


Sapphire disappeared laughing. "Later big bro" he said before completely disappearing.


"Stupid crackhead" Diamond muttered.

Fin!!! Not much of anything. Just a filler chap. I do really believe that Diamond loves Serena so that last part was for all u Diamond fans. And also I believe that he NEVER looked down on his brother. In this ficcy they'll be equal and will act like brothers!!!
