From Schoolgirl to Royal 17/?
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.
Warning: Some cursing and otherwise bad language.
An Attack and a Few Decisions
After dinner that night the scouts and Darien adjourned to the living room while Shingo, and my parents went out on the beach to watch the sunset. Shingo had left the television on when he had been watching cartoons, so there were voices in the background as we gathered around the table to talk strategy against Vortar.
"Why don't we just fight how we usually do?" I asked in exasperation after a half an hour of arguing over tactics.
"Perhaps because that usually includes you needing to be rescued." Darien answered. "If you had not noticed the last time this Vortar is stronger than anyone we've faced before. We can't just leave it up to chance and hope for the best."
"Of course not, but having the scouts weaken him until I can get close enough to moon dust him is a valid plan." I growled angrily, temporarily ignoring the trouble I had been having with my wand. "It is me that he seems to be interested in anyway, so I don't see a problem."
"You can't just go out half cocked." Raye interrupted. "In case you've forgotten, you don't know how to fight."
"I do to know how to fight." I answered back stiffly.
"If I was so inept than why are all the youma's dusted?" I asked harshly. "I didn't see any of you with the power to do that."
"Look, Princess." Mina said getting my attention. "We know you can fight if you need to, but-"
"Princess?" Darien asked softly, only to be glared at by Raye and Lita.
"We should be protecting you." Lita put in softly, cracking her knuckles in emphasis.
"You guys do protect me." I assured them. "But we can't let the Negaverse win simply because I don't want to get involved. So I'll say again, what alternative do we have?"
"You're hurt and as you mentioned yourself, Vortar seems particularly interested in you." Darien answered, receiving a glare from only Serena this time. "Besides the fact that your attacks have been weak recently."
"How would you know?" I asked huffily.
"In case you have forgotten I have been at every battle since the beginning. I know what your capabilities are, Serena." Darien reminded me.
"Bite me." I mumbled under my breath.
"Gladly, but don't we have more pressing concerns right now." Darien answered, winking at me causing me to blush in embarrassment.
"Is this true Serena?" Mina asked worriedly.
"I have been slightly weakened from using the moon wand, more then usual, but it shouldn't become a problem unless I use it for prolonged periods of time." I answered assuredly. "I'll be fine."
The rest of my answer was cut off when we heard yelling on the television. There in color, was coverage of an attack in the shopping district of Juuban. Instead of a youma attacking it was Vortar himself.
"Where are the Sailor Scouts?" The newscaster asked frantically, looking around at the carnage and destruction.
"Let's go guys." I said standing up and wordlessly making my way onto the beach where we would have room to transport. The others followed my out, causing my family to get up and come towards us in concern. Before they could ask us questions I transformed.
"Moon Prism Power!"
"Mercury Star Power!"
"Venus Star Power!"
"Jupiter Star Power!"
"Mars Star Power!"
By the time our transformations were complete, Darien had already transformed into Tuxedo Mask. My family was still gaping at us in question. I took a step forward and grasped my parents' hands.
"Guys, Juuban is under attack." I explained softly, giving their hands a reassuring squeeze. "We need to teleport there to stop Vortar."
"Teleport?" My father asked.
"You'll see. But I need you to back up and give us some room."
"You can't go without us." My brother exclaimed in outrage.
"I can't worry about your safety in the middle of battle." I explained softly to Shingo, giving him a quick hug.
"We've got to go, Sailor Moon." Luna reminded me.
"I know." I answered before looking back at my family. "Go inside you should be safe there."
They stood a few feet away from us as we joined hands with Luna, Artemis and Darien in the middle of our circle. Together we yelled the words that would get us to the Juuban shopping district.
"Sailor Teleport1"
We disappeared in a flash of bright light into the night sky. My family watched us until we faded from view, before leading Shingo into the house and settling in before the news report of the attack to wait for the others and me to appear on the scene.
