Serena huddled into a corner, her eyes red from crying, Rini started whimpering softly then started crying, Serena bit back her lip and got up, she slowly picked up the baby.

"*sniff* it's all right Rini, what's the matter, do you miss daddy?" She asked as she took a seat, she paused and stared into space,

"I miss him too, but I can't stop thinking about the kiss between him and Katie. Don't worry sweetie, you'll see him tomorrow." She said, she sighed and got a bottle for Rini, She missed him, true but she wasn't going to go crawling back to him. If he really loved her he would have never had kissed Katie, he only wanted her to move back in because of Rini. She heard a scream from the outside world, her communicator went off but she didn't bother to even look at it. She wanted to be isolated from the world, forever. But the communicator wouldn't stop beeping. She finally went over to it and opened it up

"Serena here." she said

"Serena! You need to come over here stat!" Mina said, Serena sighed,

"Is it really that important?" She asked a little annoyed

"Oh you won't believe this! We're downtown, get over hear!" She said

Serena sighed and put on her shoes, she took Rini with her, and she walked down the stair to avoid Darien if he were around. She hurried to the bookstore. She spotted to the scouts and called to them.

"Serena!" they yelled, they ran over to her and Rini

"Hi, Serena, Hi Rini! I haven't seen you in so long!" Mina squealed, she took the infant in her arms and played with her,

"Serena have you been out today?" Amy inquired

"Nope." Serena said, Amy looked concerned

"That's what I thought, Serena we were here about and hour ago, 2 men were cleaning the window, they're rope broke, then, and then you came and saved them." She said

"Me? But I already told you I haven't been out all…" Serena stopped

"She even said your speech, she look a lot like you but her colors on her uniform, they where a little darker." Raye said

"We think it might be a new scout." Lita said

"But Sailor Moon's my job!" Serena whined

"Maybe…" Raye started

"Maybe what?" Serena asked

"Maybe, she's here to replace you. No offence Serena but you haven't been to a battle in awhile and we really need a Sailor Moon." She finished cautiously. Serena didn't say anything; Raye was right, she need to defend the innocent, what if Rini were in danger? Wouldn't she want someone to save her?

"I'm sorry, I haven't been more helpful." Serena said flatly

Amy looked away; there was the Sailor Moon from before, hanging from a high pole,

"You guys!" She said, she pointed towards the imposter

"There she is!" Lita said, they ran towards the pole, thing where dark, Raye sensed danger,

"Serena, get Rini out of here." She warned, Serena started to run but was stopped by Mina,

"Let me do it, I'll be quick, we need Sailor Moon right now, I'll be back soon," She said as she took the now crying infant and ran out of sight. the girls transformed and walked around, Meanwhile Tuxedo Mask had also spotted the fake Sailor Moon, he jumped from roof top to roof top, he picked her up from where she was and took her to safety, he held her in his arms,

"Sailor Moon, it's all right, your safe." he said, the women's eye opened abruptly, she smiled evilly and took a crystal shard. She stabbed it through Tuxedo Mask shoulder, he cried out in pain.

"Why Sailor Moon?" He asked in pain

"You're so gullible Tuxedo Mask! Now your mine and soon the rainbow crystals will be too!" She yelled as she stripped down to Zoicite, Tuxedo Mask got up and ran, he hid behind some bags, and he heard her voice,

"You can run but you can't hide!" she yelled

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Dark energy electricity!" Malachite yelled, instantly a dark dome, filled with electricity, surrounded the sailor scouts.

"Oh no you don't!" Mars yelled as she shot out her fire balls but they just disappeared, the dome started getting smaller

"We have to fight it before it squish's us," Mercury said

"Don't even try Sailors! Your no match for the Negaverse, don't waste your energy." Malachite said with an evil grin.

"Tuxedo Mask needs to come! He has to come!" Sailor Moon said

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Surrender cap boy!" Zoicite yelled as she spotted Tuxedo Mask and attacked him, his mask fell off revealing Darien,

"I'll never surrender." Darien said weakly

"Then I'll just have to make you." She yelled, she was about to throw an attack when a beam hit her hand,

"Who's there?!" She yelled

"This is impossible; all the Sailor brats are in Malachite's dome!" She yelled, well she was distracted, Darien managed to get away.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Malachite laughed evilly, Zoicite appeared,

"Malachite, I have bad news… I had Tuxedo Mask cornered when something hit me, it was some trick they pulled." Zoicite said

"Impossible!" Malachite said,

"But I have been informed by Queen Beryl that we no the true identity of Tuxedo Mask, don't worry Zoicite." He said. Sailor Moon looked up from her pain, Tuxedo Mask's true identity?

"If Tuxedo Mask cared, he'd be here." She told herself

"We need to hold on a little longer guys, Mina should be hear soon!" Sailor Moon yelled

"Tuxedo Mask, where are you hiding! What's the matter don't care about your little fan club?" Malachite asked

"Let them go! I'll give you the crystals! Just let them go!" Darien yelled from a corner, holding his badly wounded shoulder, he put his mask back on and stepped out of the shadows,

"I new you'd listen to reason cape boy. Now hand over those crystals" Zoicite said

"He's not giving you anything!" Sailor Venus yelled from the rooftop, she held an infant in her arms,

"Venus creasant beam smash!" She yelled with her free hand

"What's with the kid?" Malachite asked, Tuxedo Mask, peered at the infant,

"Rini?" he whispered in shock, No Rini! Why did Sailor Venus have Rini with her!, he whispered it so softly no one heard, no one except Zoicite.

"Rini!" Sailor moon screamed in horror as Malachite watched her closely, he couldn't take Rini! She was the only thing she had left, No not Rini!

The creasant beam smashed the dome open, Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask ran to Rini,

"What happened?" Sailor Moon hissed at Venus

"There was no one who could watch her, I'm so sorry." Venus whispered back, Tuxedo Mask reached them and took the infant; he examined her to see if she was all right, thank god she was all right, but what about Serena? What happened to her? Was she so hurt the scouts need to watch Rini? What happened to her? Was she all right?

Sailor Moon looked at Tuxedo Mask, holding the infant, he looks like Darien did when he first saw Rini,

"Give her to me!" She said protectively, taking the infant,

"No! Leave her to me; I'll see that the munchkin is okay." He said, he took her again, he couldn't let Sailor Moon know this was his daughter, she might try to find out more and discover his identity.

"Give the brat to me!" Malachite yelled as he sent a blast there way,
