Sorry it's taken a while for me to post a new chapter. I've been swamped with assessments and suffering from temporary writer's block. I want to keep this story interesting so bear with me.

Rei and Ami headed for the south end of the city. They casually walked around looking everywhere but trying not to draw attention to themselves.

"This is insane! Why the hell did I say we should look for her!?" Rei yelled. A few people walking by looked at her weirdly and kept walking. Ami tried to calm her down.

"It's OK Rei. You just didn't think of how hard it was going to be. It's still a good idea." Rei still seemed frustrated but sighed and spoke.

"Yeah, I guess you're right. I forgot how BIG this city is. We'll never find her."

Ami reassured her, "Well, we will never find her if we just keep standing here so lets keep going. If we don't find her in the next 2 hours, we'll give the others a call to head back to your place. OK?" Rei nodded. The two girls continued their search.

Lita and Mina started looking on the north end of the city. They were starting to think that this was not such a good idea after all.

"Ahh! This is like trying to find a needle in a haystack!" Lita said loudly looking around at all the people down the street.

"Yeah, it looks like everyone decided today, of all days, to go shopping." Mina replied to Lita's frustration. The two looked around at all the face, trying to see if one was Serenity. They both let out a loud sigh.

"I've got an idea, how about you go up one side of the street, and I'll go up the other. It will be quicker." Lita suggested.

"Sounds like a plan." Mina said and she head across to the other side of the street to continue their search.

Luna and Artimis decided that they will search the suburban areas. Since they are cats, they figured no one will think twice about them looking in through people's windows, checking their backyards etc.

"This is going to be a lot harder than I first thought." Artimis said.

"Well, what did you expect? That we would just waltz around the corner and just happen to run into her." Luna said as they walked around a corner.

Then all of a sudden, something crashed straight into Artimis, flattening him.

"Artimis! Are you OK?" Luna ran over to him. Artimis shook his head and got up. Both the cats looked up to see who or what had run into Artimis. They saw a grey cat get up, with the gold crescent moon on its forehead.

"Amarissa?" Luna questioned, not really directed at the cat standing before them.

The grey cat looked at Luna shocked.

"Huh?" Came from the grey cat

Luna smiled, "it is you!"

"Luna? Artimis?" Amarissa asked. The other two nodded. Amarissa smiled.

"Well, this is perfect. We were just looking for Serenity and we found you. Could you tell us where she is?" Luna asked.

Amarissa looked sad and shook her head, "No. I can't."

Artimis and Luna looked confused. "Why? Why won't you tell us? We need to speak to her, and so do the scouts." Artimis said.

Amarissa was looking down at the ground. "I didn't say I won't tell you. I said I can't tell you."

"Why?" Luna asked.

"Because ... I have know idea where she is. She disappeared last night, and I haven't seen her since. She said that she was going out and that was it." Amarissa sound very concerned.

"Last night did you say?" Luna inquired. Amarissa nodded. Luna smiled and said, "Well, Darien had an encounter with her this morning. That's why we're looking for her."

Something clicked to Amarissa. "Did you say this morning?" Luna nodded. "You called her Serenity!" Amarissa said quite loudly. Luna and Artimis looked at each other and nodded.

"How did you know that? You weren't supposed to remember her? Did she tell you?" Amarissa questioned the two other cats.

Luna and Artimis explained to Amarissa what happened up to the time when they ran into her (or more to the fact, when she ran into Artimis).

"Well, I'll join you in looking for her. I have a pretty good idea where she'll be."

"Where's that?" Artimis asked curiously.

"Where ever Serena is." Was the answer he got. Amarissa took off running. Luna and Artimis decided that they would have to follow her. After all, if any one could find Serenity, it was Amarissa.
