Chapter: 1~Robin Hood Will Soon be Here-NOT!!!

Rating: G

Summary: Serena is forced to join a reading club at her school due to her below average reading grade. It doesn't help that her mortal enemy's the instructor. But when a Nega-creep with "special" powers attacks in the middle of a meeting, the world becomes a Sleeping Beauty story (YES, Sleeping Beauty, NOT Cinderella. That is SO cliché.) with a MAJOR twist (and a little bit of butt kicking, of course ^^).

Genre: U & M Romance/Comedy/Alternate Reality

Disclaimer: Jessi-chan doesn't own Sailor Moon, and I STILL don't! Sailor Moon is the property of Ms. Naoko Takeucki, and if not for her, I would be extremely bored right now. Sleeping Beauty belongs to Disney, blah, blah, blah… Fantasia the monster was MY idea. HER costume was JESSI'S and the freaky flamingoes with yo-yo's, that her costume's modeled after, are owned by Disney too and the phobia of them belongs to Jessi-chan and NOT me. I think Looney Toons owns Bugs Bunny-I'm not sure. Also, the Robin Hood part I got from a Bugs Bunny cartoon. Thank you.

Anyway, things are going to get a little freaky in this chapter, so I'm giving you fair warning. Hey! Don't look at me like that! If you don't like, go right your OWN Sailor Moon fanfic. This is MY story so I can put what I want! I know I said I write the evens and Jessi-chan the odds, but we wrote this particular chapter together…refer to the flamingoes with yo-yos. ..... denotes thought and *.....* are author's notes.

Serena and Darien played up to the story till they got to the part when the prince and Sleeping Beauty are singing in the woods, although Serena was fairly surprised when she found out that the 3 fairies turned out to be Mina, Lita and Amy. *You've GOT to see the movie to know what I'm talking about.* Serena kept thinking about what she was going to do. Ok, I should see Darien soon. NO! Don't say Darien, say Tuxedo Mask! That makes the situation more bearable. BUT HE'S STILL DARIEN!!! "Shut up stupid inner conscience!" Serena yelled. "You do know you said that out loud." Serena turned around and saw Darien step out of the woods, leading a white stallion by the reins. Serena looks hot in that dress. Infact, she looks hot in ANY dress. "Yes I DO know I said that aloud!" she replied angrily. "Ooooookay. Then what was your conscience saying in the 1st place?" Suddenly out of the forest stepped Rei dressed in green tights and a brown tunic and said, "Have no worries, have no fear, Robin Hood will soon be here!" "Wrong story!" Serena and Darien shouted at the same time. "Are you sure this isn't Sherwood Forest?" She asked. "Yes!" Darien replied. "Okay," Rei answered, still not sure, and disappeared into the forest. "What was THAT about?" Darien inquired. "Melvin had a Bugs Bunny comic in his book bag and it was to a Robin Hood theme," Serena answered. "Oh. What were we talking about again?" Darien said, picking up from where their conversation had left off. "Oh well, I want to talk about you being Sailor Moon and you probably want to know about me being Tuxedo Mask." Serena nodded. "Ok, 1st of all, WHAT WAS WITH THE FLAMIGO LADY? I agree with Mina and Amy on this 1, THOSE FLAMINGOES IN FANTASIA FREAK ME OUT!!!" Darien shouted, making birds fly up out of the trees. Serena rolled her eyes and Darien put on a quick scowl, which turned out all wrong and Serena thought this was funny. She stifled a laugh and suddenly grew serious, "I am NOT kissing YOU!" she growled out of the blue. "Huh? When did I ask you to kiss me?" Darien asked stupidly. "Darien we are going to have to kiss if we

wanna get out of here… I swear for "1 of the top reading students in senior year", you sure are stupid!" she added with a laugh. "Well, I just don't dwell on that certain aspect of this story," Darien retorted. Well actually, I think that's just about the best thing in this stupid story. The only thing I like better is the marrying part. Serena acted like she was offended, "I'm not that bad of a kisser you know," she muttered. "Oh really?" Darien asked arching an eyebrow. "Yes really!" Serena insisted crossing her arms in front of her chest. "How about we put that little remark to a test, Meatball Head?" Darien whispered slyly. Serena's eyes grew very wide, "No way, Darien NO WAY!" she screeched backing away from him. Darien started laughing, "Geez, Serena can't you take a little joke?" he chuckled. Serena's ears turned a slightly pinkish color, "Oh!" she squeaked obviously embarrassed making Darien laugh harder. "Stop it Darien you know I'm not as fast as other people!" Serena grumbled. Darien looked Serena in the eye and smirked and replied, "Don't worry, I know you can take a joke, but right now, I'm NOT joking. Serena gasped, but before she could do anything, she was already pulled into an earth-shattering kiss. *The 1st of many, for that matter ^^. "Mary, this story is rated G, if you would be so kind as to check the rating?" Excuse me people, I have some flamingos with yo-yo's to sick on an annoyance (as in Jessi!)…* "Oh Darien," Serena whispered. WOAH!!! I thought Darien HATED me! "Serena," Darien gasped. Hey! She didn't slap me! The intimate moment was soon broken up by Rei, who once again popped out of the forest saying, "Have no worries, have no fear, Robin Hood will soon- OH!!!!! Y'all must be right because as far as I know, Sherwood isn't so, so, ummmmmmmmm, TOUCHY-FEELY!!!" And with that, she jumped back into the forest. Darien looked fairly surprised. I'm NOT going to ask… "You were right," Darien replied, turning to Serena. "You ARE a good kisser." Serena stood on her tip-toe's, opened her mouth and took a deep breath, pointing her finger at Darien as if to scold him, but no words came out. "Yes?" Darien asked in an annoying calm voice. Serena eased back down, lowered her finger and said, "You're despicable!" Darien smirked and replied, "I know. By the way, wasn't THAT in a Bugs Bunny cartoon?" *Yes it WAS in a Bugs Bunny cartoon. "SO-MANY-YO-YOS!!!" Sorry, Jessi-chan's in a fetal position in the corner. She's still recovering from the flamingoes.* "Yes," Serena answered, fairly surprised. "YOU actually watch Bugs Bunny?!" "Ummmmmmmmmmmmm… Did I say that aloud? Yes I did. Didn't I?" Serena watched Darien's argument with himself, fairly amused by the fact that Mr. Solemn, was finally lighting up. And he can kiss too… Oh no!!! Bad thoughts again! OH NO!!! ARGUEING WITH MYSELF AGAIN!!! "Anyways, where were we in this stupid story, oh yeah I get to sing!" Serena brightened up with a sweet smile. "NO, NO, NO!" Darien protested waving his hands in front of her face but Serena had already opened her mouth and had her lungs filled with air. Darien winced waiting for the screeches to begin, "I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream…," Serena's voice was surprisingly melodious and Darien's eyes grew wide with surprise. "Y-you can sing!" Darien choked out making Serena stop abruptly. "Of course I can sing! You didn't think that I wailed everyday for nothing do you? I was warming up my vocal chords!" Serena grumbled defensively. "Oh…" Darien muttered making Serena laugh, "You do know I was kidding about the last part right?" Serena giggled making Darien blush. Sheesh! I thought the screeching was the actual singing! "I-I knew that!" Darien insisted making them both start laughing. "Alright let's belt it!" Darien replied hastily. "It's about time for us to split." Serena nodded and they set off their separate ways.
