Disclaimer: No, no, no, it's not me. [Sniff, sniff] Wait a sec . . .
Maybe if I called up all the owners and made a bargain with them, they
would be mine! Yeah, yeah, I'll do that!
Buddy: PAL!!!!!!!!!!!
Pal: Oops! I guess I'm not supposed to do that. Do you realize that Buddy always tells me what I am and am not supposed to do?
B: No, I merely point out when you're rambling. . . . Like now, for instance.
P: . . . Oh . . . Okay. Well, let's get on with the story. It starts out when Serena goes and Galaxia defeated her. . .
B: Pal, they don't want to hear about it, they want to read it!
P: [Totally oblivious to Buddy] . . . then she gets taken to the Gundam realm and raised by Trista.
B: Pal! [Gags Pal, who still rambles on, muffled] Sorry about that, folks. She has a tendency to run at the mouth. [Shakes head] She's like the Energizer Bunny, I swear. She just goes on and on and on and on and on and. . . . [Continues]
P: BUDDY!!!!!!!!
B: . . . on and on and on and on and. . . . [Snaps out of it] Oh. Was I doing it again?
P [crossly]: Yes.
B: Oops. . . Sorry. And without further ado, what you're all undoubtedly here for.
P: Once upon a time. . .
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A black darkness surrounded a glowing light that faded with each passing minute. Looking closer into the light, a girl floated, her knees drawn up protecting her body and a crystal protected by her hands. Slowly the girl's eyes opened. Her once crystal blue eyes are flooded with hurt and defeat.
"Everyone is gone," she whispered sinking her head down into her lap. "How could it have happened so fast? They're all gone." New tears flowed freely down her cheeks. "We can't die yet!" She took the crystal she had once held so preciously moments before and flung it through the darkness. It traveled a short distance before it cast a brilliant light that blinded the girl. She shielded her eyes from the sudden light as she began to change. She looked around wildly, confused at what was happening.
Within seconds, the change was complete, and a babe floated in the air where the girl had been seconds before. It waved its hands and the crystal brought forth a hidden figure. Her hair, held up in a high ponytail, glinted green in the crystal's light while the majority remained black. Her sailor outfit flittered in the non-existing wind. Again the babe waved its hands frantically, smiling. Suddenly the crystal flew toward the babe and disappeared into its chest. The figure walked toward the child.
"Oh, Serena, what have you done now?"
As she took the babe into her arms, she understood its intent. She held the child close in her arms as a mother would, then turned and walked away, fading, saying the last of her words this dimension would ever hear from her with baby Serena's giggles following them.
"Then reborn you are, Serenity. May your happiness come from both love and freedom." The figures faded into nothing, never to be seen in that dimension again.

P: And that . . . . is the end . . . . of the chapter. What, did you think I would say the end of the show? [Confused look] . . . Story? . . . . . Novel? . . . . . . Whatever this thing is!
B: . . . . . . . Am I the only one with a serious headache? [Rubs temples, looks to readers] Is it just me, or can Pal's ramblings cause major migraines? Anybody got any Excedrin?
P: Good day, everyone. And don't forget to . . . REVIEW!REVIEW!REVIEW!REVIEW!REVIEW!REVIEW!REVIEW!
B: Advil, perhaps? Or maybe some Tylenol . . .?
(Author's note: Okay, people, I am putting this story on as my first story. I will appreciate any feedback! ( However, please keep it to constructive criticism. I don't like flaming bricks or flying chairs or . . . anything else that you can think of . . .)
