~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Back on Nemesis~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The next morning Diamond and Sapphire were sitting in the throne room watching what was going on in the past earth time. There was already chaos going down at the park. People were staring at the alien object Sapphire had planted after abducting Serena. "Well done in placing the bomb," Diamond said to Sapphire. "They have no idea what it is either." Sapphire told him. Diamond took a sip of his wine as Sapphire continued looking at the hologram image of past Tokyo. "Do you really love her Diamond?" Sapphire asked casually. Diamond looked intrigued at his brother, no one had asked him something like that before. "Well, yes brother I do, she is the perfect person to help me rule both Earth, Nemesis, and the Moon as a bonus." Diamond said back with a sense of assurance in his voice. "But that's not love, do you love her?" He asked him again. Diamond thought again about her beauty, her soft skin, her gorgeous body, her deep crystal blue eyes, he said again to him, "Yes Sapphire, I love her beautiful eyes, her body, her skin, all of her beauty." Sapphire was getting frustrated, did his brother not know the meaning of love. Beauty and possessions are great, but what about the whole package, the way she acts, the feeling one gets as you are around her, the way that she makes you feel like you are something special, different from everyone else, in a good way. "That's not it Diamond, do you love her?" Sapphire asked one last time. Diamond looked at his wineglass; he was starting to get a bit irked, Sapphire knew that he loved the Princess. He thought again, about how the Princess made him feel like the luckiest man anywhere when he held her hand .He thought about how she looked at him with those big blue eyes, and how she moved with such grace. He thought about when she looked at him and he forgot all his troubles, her personality was that of no other, she made him feel like he was something special, like she understood him, and that alone was something that he had never had before. He knew then for sure that it was love. "Yes Sapphire I love every aspect of her being, she makes me feel like I am something special, she is so kind to me, she doesn't seem to have a mean bone in her body, I need her Sapphire, I really do love her." He said back to him. Sapphire's eyes went wide. Maybe his brother did know the meaning of love. Maybe he should just give up on the silly idea of having the Princess. "It could never be. Why would she love me when she could be with Diamond?" He thought. And yet, the idea of him being with the Princess still stood. No matter how unlikely it would seem, he longed to have her. To have her love, and for only to love him. He knew that he had fallen for her, he loved her. "What's wrong, Sapphire?" Diamond asked with a worried look on his face. Sapphire looked up, he was thinking too much. "O nothing, I think I'm just a bit tired." He said to his brother, this actually was not a lie, he had been awake the last few nights think about the Princess, and how he longed to be with her. He didn't dare tell Diamond that, he would hit the roof. "Maybe you should go take a rest for a little while," Diamond suggested. "No that's all right, I'm OK." He told his brother. "No I insist, I'll have Emerald come and wake you up in an hour or so, she should be getting back any time now with the four sisters." Diamond said to him. Sapphire nodded, "All right, if you insist, thanks." He said and walked out. Diamond watched as Sapphire walked out of the room. He took a sip of his wine. "That conversation was, rather odd." Diamond thought. Sapphire walked out of the throne room and down the hall. He took a right and saw the Princess coming out of her room and down the hall. "Good," Sapphire looked at his watch, "Afternoon Princess." The princess looked at him and smiled. She walked towards him; he was about 100 feet away from her. "Good afternoon, how are you?" She asked him cheerfully?
Diamond thought suddenly, "I wonder if the princess is awake?" He stood up from the throne, "I had better go check," he thought. He headed down the hallway and heard voices. It was Sapphire and the princess, he heard, "Good afternoon, how are you?" He smiled, "That's her all right." Just hearing her voice made him happy. She had an affect on him like no other. ~~ What Diamond could hear but not see as he was walking down the hall~~ She walked towards him. "I'm all right, a bit tired, headed to my room" he told her as he walked past her, he couldn't betray Diamond, he kept thinking. The princess passed him, and suddenly tripped on her long slender, black dress, "Whoa!" She yelled and fell backwards. Sapphire quickly reacted; he bent down quickly caught her in his strong arms. ~~Diamond quickly walked to the end of the hall and saw what happened. Diamond fumed with rage! "What does he think he is doing? She is mine!" They stayed in that position for a moment, "Are you all right?" Sapphire asked quickly; suddenly he found his eyes looking directly in hers. Her eyes were breathtaking. "Yes, sorry my dress is so long, I'm a bit clumsy, thank you." She told him, he smiled, "You're not clumsy," He told her as he looked at her dress, "It's so long, very easy to trip I would think, glad you didn't get hurt." He finished. Diamond cut in, "Are you all right, Princess?" Sapphire looked at Diamond and quickly pulled the Princess up and let go. "Yes, I'm fine, I tripped and Sapphire caught me" she told him smiling. "O I see, glad you are all right, thank you Sapphire" he told him. "Yes, I'll be going now" Sapphire said and walked down the hall. "Sure you are all right princess?" Diamond asked her? She smiled again and nodded. He took her hand and they walked to the throne room. "Did you sleep well?" He asked her. "Yes I did thank you, and you?" She asked him. "Like a dream" he told her, thinking, "With you in all of them." "Good," she said as they walked into the throne room. "Well would you like to get your pay back?" He asked her? She nodded. "I have been wronged one to many times." She told him with a huge grin on his face. He smiled back at her, "Good." "Today, I need for you to return to earth, I need you to set up some perimeter devices in Tokyo, I am going to send you with the sisters to help you," he told her, "That is, if you want to?" She nodded, " I would love to help my new family." She told him. Diamond had another reason to love her; she loved her 'family'. The sisters appeared in the room. Diamond quickly explained how to plant the devices in Tokyo and where. She nodded and went off with the sisters back to the past. "I was going to let her go with Sapphire, but I don't trust him with her anymore." Diamond wanted to go with her, but he had some very important 'business' to take care of.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~At Rei's temple the next morning~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Everyone was back first thing that morning at Rei's temple. "I had the weirdest sleep last night," Darien said. "What happened?" Mina asked? "Nothing, it was dreamless." Darien said. "Wow that is scary, you're always being haunted by some creepy dream," Rei said. "You know how many times Serena had called me crying about you?" Mina said. Darien looked away. "Sorry, shouldn't have said that" Mina admitted. They sat there for a few hours talking about strategies. "I think the only way we can defeat this new enemy is by a planet power attack!" Rei said. They all agreed and discussed plans. Darien looked shocked. "What is it?" "She's back! She is on Earth!" He told them. They all quickly transformed. Mercury whipped out her computer and started to track her. "She is on the top of a skyscraper downtown!" Mercury said. They all hurried downtown.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Serena's POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Back on the Earth," I thought as I looked out at the city from the skyscraper building I'm on, "The many joys, not." I have too many memories from here, my eyes grow cloudy as thoughts of my 'friends' go through my mind, they all hate me. Well they have another thing coming; I will show them the meaning of pain. I know the bitter feeling of it all to well. The sisters surround me; they are chanting some kind of different language. I stand in awe of them as they call upon some kind of power. What are they doing? Suddenly a device appears in front of me. This must be the perimeter device Diamond was talking about. I walk over to it. I pick up the object, it's heavy. Energy flows through my veins as I hold it. I place it in the dead center of the skyscraper. I get down on my knees to set it up I push a spot on the side of it and it starts to glow. I have finished installing the device. I stand back up; ready to go to the next stop point when I hear voices screaming. I look back quickly. The scouts are attacking the sisters. Avery and Prisma are already on the ground. Catsy and Birdie are having a hard time. I rush over to them but am held back by a very strong arm. I look back ready to defend myself. It's Tuxedo Mask. "What do you want from me now Tuxedo? You are no longer concerned with me, leave me before I cast your sorry self into oblivion." I tell him with anger in my voice. "Serena what have they done to you?" Tuxedo asks me with a sad look in his eyes. "What have they done to me? They saved me from torment and deceit! Your deceit, and theirs!" I am irate. "O Serena, I will not let you think these lies!" he said to me, as he reached to hold me. "GET OFF OF ME!" I yell and a ball of energy appears in my hands, I blast him off it. He goes back about twenty-five feet. He is stunned for a moment and looks like he is in pain. The scouts yell to see if Darien is all right. He puts his hand up to them; they have finished up Birdie and Catsy. "It's all of them against me. No, not again." They all walk towards me. "No get away from me," I yell as I hurry backward facing my enemies. "We only want to help you Serena. You have been taken away from us. We aren't deceiving you, we love you." Rei says to me. "No! Lies all lies!" I yell and edge further backwards. "Serena, remember that day at the mall, you ran away and dropped a bag, a bag full of." Rei started. I'm edging further backwards, not looking back, I'm at the edge now not knowing. I slip and I scream in the process. "Serena!" I hear everyone yell. "This is it," I think. "Death is coming." Then, all of a sudden, I feel a hand grab my arm, then my other one. I look up. Tuxedo Mask has my hand, he is holding onto me with all of his might, not letting me fall. He slowly pulls me up. The scouts run over to me. I am on the ground breathing hard. "Why did you do that?" I ask astounded. "I love you Serena." Tuxedo Mask tells me. I shake my head no violently. "You do not, you dumped me. I wanted to die after that." I tell him, tears filling my eyes. "Serena," Rei, Sailor Mars says, "Remember this?" She and the other scouts pull out their friend ship charms I bought them the day I was late and ran out of the mall. They had kept them? "Why do you have those?" I ask as I quickly stand up. "We are your friends and we love you" Lita, Sailor Jupiter says. "All you have to do is touch it and we can all be friends again." I shake my head, "No, you don't love me, you all hate me!" I yell! "Just touch it Serena." Amy, Sailor Mercury says sweetly. I look up at her; she had never done anything to hurt me now that I thought about it. I walk over cautiously. They look at me with their eyes brimming with tears. I touch the friendship charm. A warm feeling comes over my body; I feel all energy leaving my body. The black dress I'm wearing turns into a plain, pearl color, silk dress. I faint.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Writer POV~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tuxedo Mask runs over to Serena and catches her. "We got her back!" He yells happily. "Let's get out of here!" Rei yells. They all de transform and run out back to Rei's temple. After a good run, they are finally there. Darien lays Serena down on Rei's bed and they all gaze at her lovingly. Darien kisses her softly on the lips. "Do you think that Sapphire guy will come after her?" Mina asks? "I don't know, but we'll be ready for him." Lita says back to her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Back on the Scyscraper~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The four sisters slowly wake up. "Where, where is the Princess?" Birdie asks? "Those stupid Sailor scouts must have gotten her!" Catsy said to her. "O no, we must tell the Prince!" Prisma said to them all. "He is going to be irate. Talk about blowing a fuse." Avery says to all of them. They all nod. "Nevertheless, we must tell him." Catsy told them. They all agreed and went back to the future.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Back on Nemesis~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The sisters appear in the throne room. Diamond is yelling with Sapphire. "That was my mission! Why didn't you wake me up?" Sapphire yelled. "Brother, you were so tired, the sisters went with her instead." Diamond said calmly as he took a sip of his red wine. The sisters look at him oddly. Prisma was almost in a trance; Sapphire was so dreamy. Diamond just noticed the sisters. "It's about time you got back," he said and then his eyes looked a bit concerned, "Where is the Princess?" The sisters were practically shaking. "Where is she?" Diamond asked once again? Sapphire looked at them with the utmost concern. "We were attacked, I was the last one to go down, I guess they got her too." Catsy said to him. Diamond almost jumped off of his throne. His eyes were wide as saucers, "WHAT THEY TOOK HER?" They all nodded. Sapphire's eyes were as wide as Prince Diamond's. "You see, they can't do anything right! You should have sent me with her." That hit all of the sisters like a brick, especially Prisma. "He acts like he cares for her.he can't he is meant to be with me!" Prisma yelled in her mind! "We have to get her back." Sapphire said. "OUT OF MY SIGHT! ALL OF YOU BESIDES SAPPHIRE!" Diamond yelled! He was angrier than irate; he had sent the sisters to watch the Princess, to make sure she was protected. He didn't think she would be in danger or he wouldn't have sent her at all. He had just lost the love of his life, Princess of his dreams. (Literally) The sisters quickly left the throne room. "I will go back and get her! They will not treat her like they did once before! I will not let her be treated like dirt. They don't understand or appreciate her! She will be my queen. We will rule together, and they will pay for not loving her like they should!" Diamond vowed. He was about to go back in time to retrieve his love as Sapphire grabbed his arm. "Let me go with you." He told the Prince. "All right, don't get in the way." Diamond told him, his eyes glaring. "I will help you blast them out of the water!" Sapphire told him. Diamond nodded and disappeared with Sapphire.
