Recap:
"Why Darien? Why?" Serena asked in a clear voice without a trace of emotion in her face.
Chapter 11 Disappear
Darien's glaze flitted over her and it softened for a bit. "Why?" he repeated softly.
Serena gazed at him frowning waiting for him to respond.
Darien yanked Relena's hair making her wince and moan in pain. "She made you cry." He said plainly as though such a fact should condemn the pacifist princess to the fires of hell.
Serena scowled. "I want to know is why you are doing this? What do you stand to gain in killing her?" Serena asked pointing to Relena.
"Isn't it obvious? I love you Usako. I'd kill anyone for you." Darien said with a smile as though she should've understood this.
Heero watched the exchange with narrowed eyes, grasping his gun for any other surprises.
"But what if I don't want you to kill her? Can you please let her go now?" Serena asked trying to placate him realizing that he had gone nuts.
"But you do…you do." Darien laughed with amusement. "I know what you want before you even know it. That's why we're perfect for each other my princess.Don't you think that I know? What you're true plans are? I know what you're planning even from the beginning." Darien spoke.
"Oh really? So tell me what am I planning except of shooting this bullet straight to your head." Serena asked eyebrows raise.
"Really funny Usako. You wouldn't do that. We still have to live happily ever after. I am the only one deserving of you." Darien spoke arrogantly.
Heero shot Serena a look begging for her to let him shoot the creep. Serena shook her head no, wondering what kind of crazy delusions Darien had of them together.
"Don't you remember Darien? I broke up with you." Serena reminded him her voice toneless, sick of trying to appease him eyeing him to let him go of the gun and sword he was threatening Relena with.
"That's why I have to kill her… I know that you'll come back to me once you finished your mission at the Sanq Kingdom and return to me." Darien spoke for sure.
"Ha! Return to you?" Serena scoffed. "And what do you know about my mission?" Serena challenged clicking the safety off her gun.
Darien grinned. "I know lots." He said cryptically. "I know that you really planned to kill Relena after you got the information you needed from Sanq, aside from hiding out from OZ that is." He continued.
Relena's eyes widened at this and looked meaningfully at Serena, Heero did too.
Serena gave a short laugh. "Figured that out did you? Then why deprive me of the pleasure?" Serena asked staring at Relena's frightened gaze.
Darien gestured for her to come closer. "Let's do it together." Darien suggested gleefully.
Serena did so, her eyes darkened mysteriously. Relena peered at her cousin's eyes and found them filled with hate and blood. A thought flickered over Relena's mind. "She really means to kill me." Relena shot a helpless glance at Heero pleading him to do something. But Heero was watching Serena carefully, wondering what her plan was or if her childish hate for Relena finally overrode her.
Darien was holding Relena in place with his own gun stuck at her temple and of course the ropes that held her secure. Serena was positioning her gun at the side of Relena's head. Relena closed her eyes tears streaming down her face.
"You have been waiting for this for 6 years. Here why don't you take this sword and behead her just like in olden times." Darien suggested eagerly. Serena took the sword and stared at it for a moment.
"Familiar, love? I got it when you were in one of your missions. I once saw you torture a soldier with that." Darien spoke proudly. "Go on…now kill her." Darien urged. Relena fainted as she heard this.
Serena gazed at Relena's pitiful state her when her eyes flickered, the hardness gone. "Then again maybe I don't want to kill her anymore." Serena spoke quietly her head bent.
"Kill her…" Darien repeated. "KILL HER!" He shouted, going crazy, suddenly the gun he aimed at Relena was now directed at Serena.
Heero tensed and was aiming to shoot Darien when Darien shot him a venomous look. "Don't even try it…or I'll blow up her pretty head." He warned.
"Darien…what are you doing?" Serena asked softly.
"I'm going to kill you first for betraying me." Darien spoke his eyes glowing crazily.
"Betray you?" Serena echoed.
"First you broke up with me…then you left me." Darien ranted. "But I can't forgive this!" Darien cried out as he pressed a button and the monitor blinked on, revealing the scene that his security camera has taken of Heero and Serena kissing.
"LOWER YOUR GUNS! BOTH OF YOU!" Darien screamed his eyes vicious. Heero automatically did so and Serena did the same cautiously.
"Was this you're plan all along? Trapping me? Luring me here?" Serena asked.
Darien shook his head no. He ran his hand through his hair in frustration. "Of course not! I loved you Usako." Darien made a sound resembling a wail.
"But you've pushed me too far… I did everything for you." Darien protested. "So you see, I have to do this. I can't stand you betraying me anymore." Darien spoke peering at Serena's eyes trying to make her understand.
"Goodbye Usako, my love." Darien spoke woefully. "I'm sorry that it had to be this way." Darien spoke regretfully preparing to shoot her when suddenly…
The upper window crashed and a bullet came whizzing by hitting Darien in his right arm making him drop his gun.
"What the-" He exclaimed in surprise.
Serena used the moment of intrusion to her advantage and grabbed hold of her gun and aimed it at Darien.
Darien stopped cold as he saw the gun both aimed at him, One from Serena the other from Heero.
"Usako…you wouldn't shoot me would you?" Darien cooed nervously.
Serena smirked. "Love hurts Dare." Serena mocked. "Give me one good reason why I should not kill you?" Serena asked as she stared disgusted at his cowering figure.
"Um…you love me?" Darien suggested weakly.
Serena narrowed her eyes. "Not good enough. Prepare to die." Serena spoke coolly.
"Then what about what I learned about the crystal?" Darien spoke pleadingly; he gave out a girlish squeal as he shielded himself. He breathed a sigh of relief as no bullet came.
"10 seconds on what you know." Serena prompted.
Darien relaxed. "It was going to be my wedding gift to you." Darien said sadly.
"8…7…6" Serena continued not hearing him.
"Alright, alright… the crystal was said not to be here in this dimension. You have to go in-between to find it." Darien spoke quickly.
"The in-between…" Serena murmured thoughtfully. Darien's gaze was shuffled trying to find any means of escape.
When a shot rang out…
Darien was hit dead on in the middle of his forehead.
Serena spun around facing Heero. "I wasn't finished with him…" Serena glared.
"Going to say I love you?" Heero spoke tonelessly.
Serena scowled. "He knows more about the cryst-" Serena never finished what she was speaking as a loud explosion caught her in surprise.
Heero grabbed Relena and went to the door. "Let's go…someone's attacking this place." Heero ordered. Serena nodded and went after him.
Outside they were greeted by gunfire.
"More of you're long lost friends?" Heero asked as he shot off 3 in his right in sequence.
"Shit. They found me already?" Serena muttered as she shot off 2 others.
They ran into the woods and stopped as no sounds followed them. The wind started to blow as Serena saw silhouettes from the corner of her left. Heero placed Relena down and started shooting the coming soldiers.
"These are OZ men…what do they want with Serena…Usagi or whatever her name is?" Heero thought as he reloaded his gun.
Serena kept shooting in a fast pace not a bullet wasted but still they kept on coming. Her supply of bullets was running low. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw someone trying to shoot her at a distance, when suddenly the man broke down being shot by neither her nor Heero.
Serena scanned the trees and found a glint of metal twinkle in the darkness. "Thank you Hotaru." Serena thought as she kept on fighting.
After a moment everything stopped. Serena shot Heero a glance wondering how he's doing and found him breathing heavily.
"I'm sorry for dragging you into my mess." Serena thought regretfully.
Just as Serena was beginning to relax, thinking that it was all over a shot fired out aiming for her heart.
Hotaru cried out a warning and killed the attacker.
Serena turned at the sound of Hotaru's voice the bullet already so near her…when Heero tackled her to the ground getting himself hit in the back in the process.
At the ground Serena was in shock, "Are you okay?" Heero asked gently on top of her.
Serena nodded and gasped. "You're bleeding."
"Its nothing…" he answered before he lost consciousness.
"Serena are you okay?" Hotaru asked worriedly as she made herself known.
"I'm fine…But Heero's hurt." She whispered guiltily.
"Here let's bandaged him with this." Hotaru suggested.
Just as they finished bandaging him they heard a sound. Hotaru stiffened and got out her knife ready to protect her friend when Relena came into their sights.
"What happened?" Relena asked confused. She gave out a gasp as she saw Heero bleeding. She came closer and slapped Serena.
"That's for hurting him AND for trying to kill me" She glared. "I hate you!" Relena spat.
Serena looked surprised while Hotaru was fuming. "Why you ungrateful…" Hotaru slapped her in return.
"How dare you?" Relena spoke in rage.
"Are we going to kill them now that they know about you?" Hotaru asked loudly. Relena shut her mouth in an instant.
Serena shook her head her gaze at Heero. Then suddenly more noises were heard.
"More enemies?" Hotaru asked worried when Duo's loud voice was heard.
"They've come to save me!" Relena exclaimed running a bit ahead.
Hotaru shot Serena a look. "It's time for me to disappear again… I'm finished here." Serena spoke nodding to Hotaru. She looked at Heero sadly and went closer to him. She touched his face gently and lowered her head to give him a fleeting kiss. "Goodbye Heero." Serena whispered.
Relena turned back just in time to see Serena's stature, bend low and give Heero a kiss.
"Get away from him!" Relena shouted walking back to them.
They heard Relena yell. "Can't believe you're related to that screaming witch." Hotaru spoke in disbelief.
"Let's just get out of here." Serena sighed and disappeared into the trees.
A/n: I wanted to update before Monday arrives again, I'm sorry if I disappointed anyone with this chapter or if there's anything wrong with it. Now that the stalker business is over it's time to find the crystal, I'm still not sure yet what's going to happen to the next chapter so unless I get a stroke of inspiration it's going to be awhile before I update. Also Hotaru is also an assassin like Serena since Haruka and the others also took care of her. Review!
