From Schoolgirl to Royal 14/?
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon; none of these characters are mine, no infringement intended.
A/N: This doesn't really follow the timeline, although it is after season 1. Even though, Serena is the moon princess, Darien doesn't know that she is Sailor Moon. Just pretend that the whole evil-Darien thing never happened and the scouts defeated Beryl on their own, but didn't loose their memories. Sorry if this is confusing; if you have any questions just ask.
Serena may seem OOC in the next few chapters, but let's just say she is extremely stressed out and that explains her sensitivity and she's pissed because her family was attacked which will explain her bouts of seriousness.
Fighting Against Pain
I came out of the bathroom to find the rest of the guys already out on the beach, with the exception of my brother, surprisingly enough. As I was throwing my hair up in a haphazard ponytail to keep it out of my way I practically ran down Shingo.
"Shingo. What are you still doing here?" I asked in exasperation.
"I wanted to talk to you." Shingo answered, looking a tad nervous. This was the first time in recent memory that I had seen Shingo nervous in my presence, let alone without insults hurling back and forth.
"Sure, Squirt. What's going on?" I asked curiously, while ruffling my brother's hair knowing how much he hated it.
"I was listening last night on the stairs and I heard what Mom and Dad said to you."
"Don't worry about that. We've come to an understanding." I explained, trying to sound like I wasn't hurt by what they had said at all.
"Not that, I just wanted you to know, that even though you are a ditz I still think you're great."
"Gee thanks, Shingo." I answered sarcastically. "I'm touched."
"No seriously. What they said about you was wrong. You save everyone all the time, without you the Youmas wouldn't be dust at all."
"Thanks. I mean that."
"It's okay… This doesn't mean I don't think you're still a meatball head though." Shingo added.
"Of course not Squirt." [Brat.]
"Kick their butts!" Shingo called after me as I turned away from him. He followed me out of the house and down to the beach where the others were waiting already transformed. I tried not to let it intimidate me as I transformed into Sailor Moon.
Before my father could have a conniption about my state of dress during my transformation I shooed my family off to the side to give the Scouts and I room to train. Luna was glaring at me disapprovingly from the sidelines with Artemis at her side looking just as pissed. [Looks like my cat can't keep a secret.]
"Mars and Moon, Mask and Venus, Mercury and Jupiter." Luna ordered. Tuxedo Mask raised an eyebrow at being ordered about by a cat at his own house, but did as he was told.
"Make it three on three, anything goes." I suggested. "We need to be prepared for multiple attackers."
Luna looked at me silently for a few seconds before agreeing hesitantly, backing away from us. On my side were Mars and Mercury. We quickly took position across from the others and before they could anticipate it Mars attacked.
"Mars Flame Sniper!"
An arrow of fire shot out of her hands heading towards Venus, Mask and Jupiter. They barely got out of the way before they were charred to a crisp. From there it was utter chaos. Jupiter was attacking Mercury hand to hand with Mercury not fairing too well. Mars and I were too busy defending ourselves to be able to help her out however. Mars was dodging roses as quickly as Tuxedo Mask could throw them while trying to get enough time between attacks to launch a counter strike. I had my hands full trying to hit Venus with my tiara while she kept knocking it away with her Love-Me Chain.
While I was occupied trying to keep my head on my shoulders, a right cross knocked out Mercury and Mars was hit by Tuxedo Mask's cane. Both of them were out of commission, though in Mars' case that didn't stop her from cursing at anyone within hearing distance, while holding her 'firing' arm close to her body. I was surrounded on three sides by Jupiter and Venus, both of whom could easily kick my ass on their worst day, and Tuxedo Mask who has made it his job in life to bail me out of trouble when I inevitable fall headfirst into danger.
"This is just what I need today, a round-table beating." I mumbled under my breath looking cautiously as they stalked me backwards until I had nowhere to retreat. "Why did I even get out of bed?"
