Chapter 1
*~Remembering the Past~*
As Serena slowly opened her eyes, she saw the bright sunlight seeping in through her bedroom windows. She slowly turned around to see what time it was: 7:30 am. "I'm late!" cried Serena, jumping out of bed. She opened her closet and looked for something that she could wear today. Rini was staying over at a friend's house and Serena would have to go pick her up later.
Serena was supposed to meet her manager, Kathy, at a café today. However, because she woke up late, now Serena had to rush.
Serena did not live in Tokyo anymore. She had been living in California for five years now. She had become a famous model ever since she moved there.
After getting dressed, she brushed her long odango hair and ate her breakfast. She then ran towards her red mustang convertible. While running, she heard her cell phone ring. "Hello?" she asked.
"Serena!" it was her manager, Kathy. "Where the heck are you?"
"I'm sorry, Kathy," apologized Serena. "I'll be there as soon as I can." Serena hung up and drove towards the café.

It only took twelve minutes to get to the café, and Serena had been speeding on her way there.
"Finally," muttered Kathy as Serena entered the café and sat down next to her. "Serena, I need you to sign these papers so that you can model the fall fashions at the next show."
"Sure. Where's the next show going to be?" asked Serena curiously.
"First it's in Paris and then it's in Tokyo."
Serena gasped. "Tokyo?"
"Yes. Why? What's wrong with Tokyo?"
Serena had suddenly become very nostalgic. She took a deep breath and began to tell Kathy her story about why she didn't want to return to Tokyo.
*~FLASHBACK~*
Serena was eagerly looking through the clothes rack at her favorite store. "This dress looks nice!" she exclaimed, holding it up in front of herself. She was about to walk into the dressing room when the store's front glass window shattered into a million pieces. A tiger-like monster had jumped into the store and growled ferociously. "Oh, no! Trouble!" exclaimed Serena, running behind a clothes rack and transforming into Sailor Moon.
Meanwhile, the other Sailor Scouts were having similar problems at a restaurant.
"Sailor Mars!" yelled Sailor Venus. "Call Serena! We need her for this fight!"
Rei nodded and ran into the restaurant's kitchen. She quickly took out her communicator and called Serena. "Serena, we need your help," said Sailor Mars, exasperatedly. "A monster has appeared at the restaurant where we are."
"I can't be there right now," answered Serena.
"What on earth can be more important than helping us win this fight?"
"Look, I'm busy as well. I'll be there whenever I can."
Serena showed up at the restaurant ten minutes later. The whole place was almost completely destroyed except for a small area in the back. The monster that the scouts had been fighting was dead.
"Where were you?" asked a very angry Sailor Mars.
"I'm sorry. I was--"
"No, forget it, Serena," snapped Sailor Neptune. "We don't need to hear your lame excuses."
"No, but I was--"
"We know what you were doing!" spat Sailor Uranus. "You were too busy shopping to help us fight the monster!"
"I was not shopping! I was also fighting a monster!"
The scouts looked at her mildly surprised, but then Sailor Pluto spoke for all of them. "We don't believe you," she said.
"Well, I don't care if you believe me or not! I was also fighting a monster and that is the truth!" yelled Serena. She couldn't fight back her tears anymore. She started crying. The Sailor Scouts looked at her, their eyes without any emotion.
"You know what, Serena?" asked Sailor Mercury quietly. "If you don't think we are worth your time, then I don't think you should be a Sailor Scout anymore."
Serena looked at her in disbelief. Even Amy is against me now. Why don't they believe me? I'm not a liar and they know that. So why are they all against me?
Serena suddenly forgot all of her emotions and stopped crying. Her eyes filled with hatred and anger. Well, if the scouts didn't want her to be part of their team anymore, then she would make them happy. "You're right Amy," said Serena, stripping her voice of all emotion. She suddenly didn't care what the scouts thought about her. "You guys just aren't worth my time." She spun around on her heels and walked towards the door. "I have more important things I should be doing. I don't know why I'm lingering in a place where I'm not wanted."
She walked out of the restaurant, expecting to be called back by one of her friends, but none of them did. Serena didn't care anymore. She continued walking home, banishing her friends from her thoughts completely.
*~END FLASHBACK~*
"That is so sad," said Kathy, wiping the tears off Serena's face. "I never knew that you went through that. Come to think of it, I never even knew you were Sailor Moon!"
"Well, I have to go and pick up Rini," stated Serena, changing the subject so that she wouldn't be forced to think about what had happened anymore. She walked out of the café and drove towards Rini's friend's house.
*~*~*~*
Well, there's chapter 1. I hope you enjoyed it! Anyway, chapter 2 will be up as soon as possible.
P.S. I know none of the scouts (especially Amy) would ever act like that towards Serena but please understand what they were going through. They all thought that Serena had 'ditched' them for the shopping mall. I mean, come on! How would you feel?!
