Chapter 2.
3 hours later Serena woke up from a troubled sleep to find that she hadn't dreamt of anything that wasn't true. She looked around and saw that someone, most likely, Trista had left some more food beside her. She decided to leave the food and let Darien sleep for a while longer whilst she went to find somewhere to go toilet and have a wash, she felt dirty and horrible. After Serena had taken care of everything she went back to find that Darien was waking up.
"Hey meatball head," Darien said sleepily.
"Hi ya muffin,
how did you sleep?"
"Ok, what about you?"
"Ok too I guess, I though that I dreamt
all this," Serena said while waving her hand to emphasis the 'all'.
"I thought so too, so your really pregnant and we have slept for a thousand years, and are now in the 30th century. What do we do now?" Darien asked Serena.
He thought that he had better not take command, because Serena had the strongest strength and she was the one that had to undo most of the protection.
"Eat first, then wake everyone up" Serena said while her mouth watered at the thought of food.
"Ok, you eat and I'll go and get cleaned up." He said while grimacing at the state of his clothes.
"Alright, but hurry back, Muffin."
Darien walked off to get cleaned up, he smelt awful, especially after Serena had been sick ON him a few times. When he was clean and smelling quite decent again he went back to Serena and the food, he thought that he could kill for a drink and something to put into his stomach about now. He walked over to Serena, gave her a kiss on the forehead, where her Crescent Moon had appeared and sat down to eat what she had saved for him, which wasn't much, after all she was eating for two now.
In a flash of light 10 minutes later, Sailor Pluto arrived and told Serena and Darien that they had to awaken the others, time was running out, "The protection you put up is weakening, it wasn't supposed to cover everyone and everything while you was pregnant, and your not strong enough to keep the barrier going and be awake, so you have to do it now." Said a worried looking Pluto.
"What will happen if it fails before we remove it?" Darien asked.
"Um, everyone will age rapidly into a thousand years on their ages, including the Scouts and Knights, everyone will die, but the Senshi will live looking like a dried Egyptian mummy."
Serena and Darien looked at each other and Serena turned white with near shock. They both agreed and pulled out their transformation tools. Pluto decided to vanish for a while, she thought that she might have to go back to the past and find a few things.
"Moon Crystal Silver Power" shouted Serena and in a flash of white and pink light she was turned into Princess Serenity, wearing her white dress with Crescent Moons on the bodice, next was Darien,
"Earth Crystal Power" he turned into Prince Endymion, Prince and Protector of Earth and Princess Serenity.
With the two of them changed into their most powerful forms they rose up into the sky holding hands, they silently agreed to share their energies to re-awaken everything. First they started with the protection barrier around everyone and everything.
"Moon Earth Crystal Protection Dissipate" that took care of the barrier, which took the most energy, next the re-awakening of the plants and animals.
"Earth Crystal Planet Wake Up" as soon as the words came out of Prince Endymion's mouth, they saw birds starting to fly from the ground and heard all kinds of birdsongs and dogs barking.
As soon as Princess Serenity saw that it worked she shouted out her own wake up to the people of the planet, "Moon Crystal Energy Wake Up" the people should have started to wake up, and they would have if Serenity had enough energy, but wait, she looked and saw her friends wake up and turn looking around. Princess Serenity floated down with Prince Darien who was holding on tight to Serenity, as she was so weak.
"Guys, your all awake" Serenity cried.
"Hey quit it would you" Raye said as if they hadn't slept for the past 1000 years.
"Wow, did it work?" Mina asked still a bit dazed.
"Yes, my friends it worked, welcome to our new beginning and the 31st century, the year is 3000 and it's now, I do not know the time." Serenity told them.
"Serenity, are you ok, would you like me to check you and the baby?" Asked Amy, ever the doctor and concerned friend.
"Please, would you?" asked a very worried Prince Endymion, "This was supposed to wake everyone, and not just you lot up. She has very little energy, even though you gave her your strength while asleep, and she has eaten and slept for an extra 3 hours, as have I."
"Of course I will check her, Serenity lay down please, guys back away, girls form a barrier, I have to lift her dress up to check her belly."
"Amy, please do not call me Serenity, I may be acting more grown up, but I am still your friend Serena." Serena told her. Amy just nodded and took Serena's pulse, while she was doing that Trista appeared from no where like she usually does, this time she had a medical kit, containing a stethoscope and blood pressure monitor and some other cool medical stuff. Amy thanked Trista and went back to examining Serena, she took her blood pressure and checked Serena's heartbeat and then placed the baby heart monitor on Serena's stomach, everyone held their breath, including Darien who had been allowed to stay and hold Serena's hand. Then to everyone's relief they all heard the baby's heart beating, but there was something wrong, there was more than one heartbeat in there. No one heard it, they didn't know what it was, but Amy and Darien knew, both having interest in Medicine. Amy packed away all of the equipment before giving the whole group the verdict on Serena's condition.
Amy had decided to pull Darien to one side after telling the group about Serena's health; she didn't want anyone to panic before it was totally necessary. "Serena is healthy, so is the baby," Darien gave her a funny look as if to say, why not tell them everything, Amy carried on, "But she is mentally and physically exhausted. She needs a weeks rest before she awakens the others, if she doesn't rest, at worst case she will kill herself and the baby, at the least damage the baby. Remember these are worst cases, in both cases, at the best she will pull it off with out no damage to her or the baby." Amy finished.
"Trista, what do you think, will the sleep keep everyone alive unharmed for much longer?" Serena asked.
"No Princess, you have a couple of hours at most."
"Ok, I think we should all get some proper rest and have some food and drink, and then attempt to wake everyone else up" Darien said to the large group.
"I agree, I will need your help" Serena added
"Well then Princess, I will take my leave again and return in about an hour to help." Trista said before bowing and vanishing.
They all sat down and ate some food and drank some water, except Serena who had plenty to eat before, so she went to the bathroom and walked around to stretch her legs, Darien followed her and joined her when she started walking around the park.
"Do you feel alright my sweet?"
"Yes Darien, I feel like I'm about to explode with happiness, my friends are alright, I have you and we have this," she said as she rubbed her belly.
Darien reached down and placed his hand where Serena was rubbing, tears were forming in his eyes and he choked as he said "Yes my love, we have our friends and our future in here, we will have to get married straight away, can't have our Queen having an illegitimate baby"
"That is going, I can not stand people saying things like that about others. As long as the child is cared for and protected and loved then nothing else matters" Serena said nobly.
"Yes Serena, I think you will make a great change to this world and be a great mother"
"As long as you are with me Darien"
They walked back to the group, who were now clean and fed. Amy looked over to Darien and smiled and slightly nodded, which Darien saw and understood, he turned and said to Serena, "I need to go talk to Amy, about the best way to do the awakening with the least amount of risk, you lay here and rest with the rest of the group."
Serena just nodded and sat down with all her friends and her sister.
