Serena sighed and put her head in Dariens lap. "Oh Darien...I should be happy that we deafeated Queen Beryl, but something still bugs me..."
Darien looked lazily at Serena. "Serena, you're just imagining things. Everythings normal. Everyone's safe. All thanks to you Serena!"
Serena closed her eyes. "No...the scouts helped me, I'm not talking all the credit!" she laughed softly as Darien stroked her hair. Darien's right... Serena thought to herself. I should be happy....
Darien broke through Serenas train of thoughts. "I'm just getting a glass of soda ok Serena? I'll be back in a sec."
Serena sleepily raised her head. "Sure Darien." she bent up and gave him a light kiss. Smiling, Serena watched Darien leave the room.
I'm so lucky. she thought to herself. I have the most gorgeous boyfriend in the world, I've defeated Queen Beryl....I wish I could stay like this forever...
A breaking of glass and a horrible thump came from the kitchen. Panicing, Serena ran from the room to see if Darien was alright. She screamed at the sight before her. Her dear boyfriend Darien lay dead on the floor, his glass of soda was smashed, glass particles covered the kitchen. Dariens glassy eyes were staring at the roof, unmoving and lifeless. Serena fell to her knees, tears streaming down her face.
What happened?? she thought to herself, trying to fit it all together. It was then she noticed the dagger sticking from the back of Dariens head. Serena screamed once more, and ran from the room. She didn't stop running until she reached the nearest phone box. She called the police, then called Rei. Normally Serena acted as though she cared nothing for Rei, as they were always fighting, but now, Serena felt as close to her as she'd ever been. Soon, Dariens apartment was swarming with police. Lita, Rei, Ami and Mina were all at the scence now, comforting Serena, while also getting over the shock of Dariens death.
"Excuse me miss," a police officier walked up to Serena. This envelope was found in the scene, it is addressed to you." he handed the letter to serena, nodded politely, then walked back to the apartment. Serena looked at the envelope in surprise.
"who could it be from?" she whispered fearfully. "I can't open it..." Rei looked at her softly. "You must serena. just open it and find out what it says." serena nodded, and broke the seal. Inside, was a peice of paper yellowed with age. Curiously, she unfolded it. Serena screamed and dropped the letter.
"What is it???" her friends asked her fearfully, watching her pale face. Wordlessly, she handed Ami the letter.
"One down, four to go." Ami read slowly. Her face turned as white as a ghost.
Serena sobbed in Mina arms. "The killer..." she started. "The killer, is c-coming for you guys now!" she cried hysterically. Lita placed a comforting hand on Serenas shoulder. "We'll report this to the police Serena." she said quietly. "they'll catch the killer, and we'll all be safe. You don't have to worry!"
