Chapter: 6. Phone call to Ryan

Category: Sailor Moon, Alternate season R Continue (Comedy/Drama/Action)

Spoilers: Serena is going to call Ryan Dayton, her real birth father.

*~*~* Serena's Point of View *~*~*

I've been sitting in Mina's living room for the last 30 minutes; try

to come up with some courage to call Ryan. Somehow, Ryan fits him

better. I just couldn't even think of calling him Dad.

"Come on, Usa, you got to get this over with soon or later." Minako said.

"Yeah. Might as get it over with." Makoto piped in.

"I..." I started to say

"I what? Come on! Do it. What can happen anyway? We are all here to

support you." Minako encourage me.

"Yeah. I'm going to ake the call. Isn't that why I'm here?" I said,

picking up the phone. "Um...Miko, the number?"

Minako blinked, then clushed. "Haha. Don't worry. I got it." Standing

up to get it. "I'll read while you dill. Ok?"

I nooded in agreement. Then while telling myself I can do this

mentally, I dilled the number as Minako reads it out. "1 213 329 8667"

(AN: the number actually reads DAYTONs)

After barely two rings, the phone was picked up. "Dayton's household.

May I ask who this is?" The voice was so familiar.

"Yes. I'm Usagi, may I speak to Mr. Ryan Dayton." I asked in English.

WOAH! I thought to myself. Where did that came from? I was never that

good in English. I turned to look at Miko and Mako. They looked just

as surprised.

"Sure, Hold on a moment." The woman's voice answered. When she was

gone I said wuickly to the two, "I must have been the crystal, helping

me to remember. But still

English?"

Seconds later, a man answered the phone, "Hello. This is Ryan Dayton.

May I ask for your name?"

"My name is Usagi Tsukino. However, I was born Serena Serenity Dayton,

born to Ryan and Selene Dayton."

"What? Is this some sort of sick joke?"

"No. Mr. Dayton. I really am Serena. I'm your daughter."

"It's a mistake. You must be joking. My wife and daughter died a long

time ago."

"But Sir..." Miko took over the phone quickly, seen as I'm having

trouble convincing Ryan. "Uncle Ryan, this is Mina."

"Mina, hi, what is going on?"

"Uncle Ryan. Serena is really besides me."

"Mina, this is no joke. You know Serena and Selene both..."

"...died 13 years ago?" Mina cutted in. "It's all a mistake. True, aunt

Selene was on the plane from Tokyo back to California. However, Serena

wasn't on that plane. She was

trusted into the hands of a Japanese couple by aunt Selene. Serena

really is alive."

"Oh My God."

"No kidding. Mom said that too. Serena, she look exactly like that of

aunt Selene, mom said."

"Um...Mina, could you give the phone back to Serena?"

"Sure." Miko said. "Here, he wants to talk to you."

"Hi." I said.

"Hi. This is unbelievable. I thought... never mind that. How are you?

How have you been?" Ryan asked

"I've bee fine."

"That's good. Where do u live?"

" Tokyo, Japan. The same city as Aunt Liz and Minako and Makoto."

"Minako? Makoto? Oh you mean Mina and Lita?"

"That's right. We all are friends."

"OH. That's good. This is so amazing. I... I'm not sure what to say.

However, I do know, I'm flying over ASAP."

"You are?"

"Of course. I just found that my daughter isn't dead, of course I'm

coming."

"Oh."

"Well, then see you tomorrow."

"Ok. Bye."

"Bye."

After hanging up, I was in a trance for no one knows how long. Finally

Makoto broke the silence. "Oh no. We are going to be late. Remember?

We were suppose to meet..."

"Oh NO. The rest of them... OH NO...Rei is gonna..." I said

"Kill us." All three of us finished together. The after a nanno second

of pause, we call stood up and ran out.
