"Rini?" Serenity was confused.
Everyone looked at each other nervously. Serena and Darien were both blushing.
"Who's Rini?" Serenity asked. The girls didn't know what to say. They didn't know if they should or not. Rini had never mentioned anything about her mother (Serena) having a sister in the future. What if she wasn't in the future?
While the girls were contemplating what to say to Serenity, Luna decided that she would explain.
"Rini is Serena and Darien's future daughter. When the Negamoon attack her future and when the future needed our help, Rini came back in time in search of Sailor Moon."
Serenity was surprised. She looked at Serena and Darien, who were still bright red. Luna told Serenity everything that happened from when Rini appeared up to when she (Serenity) appeared. When Luna had finished Serenity was silent. She couldn't believe some of the things these girls have been through. She then became confused.
"So, Rini traveled through time a few times?" Serenity asked.
"Yes" Said Luna
"And she's Darien and Serena's daughter?"
Luna nodded
"Hang on, that answers who Rini is, but what I really want to know is how all you girls meet up. What are your stories? It only fair since I told you mine."
"Your right and since I was the first to become a sailor scout I should go first" Mina said with a big grin on her face. She told her story of the first time she meet Artimis up to when she first met the other scouts. The others listen to her story intently since she didn't really tell them much of this story either.
When Mina was done Serena jumped and yelled, "My turn! Since I am the leader of the sailor scouts and the most important!"
"WHAT!" The other girls screamed. They didn't look happy.
"JOKING!" Serena yelled.
Serena told the story about the first day she meet Luna up to the point before Rini showed up, since Serenity was already told that story by Luna.
Next up for story telling was Ami. She said how Serena was the first one she made friends with at school.
Rei was after Ami. She said that she meet Serena and Ami when they came to her temple and that even from day one, they didn't get along (but they really cared about each other).
Lita was last to go. She said that Serena was the only one brave enough to talk to her but Serena butted in, "The real reason I talked to her is that she had heaps of food and I had forgotten my lunch." Everyone laughed at her.
"That's our Serena!" Mina said. Everyone was laughing hard. Serenity stopped and looked at everyone. She smiled. 'They're all so happy.' Her smile disappeared and she became sad. 'I couldn't bear it if it was because of me that their happiness was destroyed.' Serenity's thoughts were broken when Serena squealed.
"Rei, we forgot all about eating the food your grandpa bought us!"
That set everyone off again. Even Serenity's smile returned. Rei quick grab the tray of food off Serena before she ate everything and the two began fighting again. Serenity wondered if she should intervene but the others said to her to just let them fight it out.
Serenity then turned to Darien and said, "Darien, you haven't told your story yet."
A serious look came across his face. Rei and Serena stopped fighting when they heard Serenity ask this question. Everyone but Serenity knew that Darien didn't remember anything about his past in this life which was hard for him.
"I don't remember much of my life. I was in a car accident and lost my memory and my parents."
"I'm sorry" Serenity said, wishing she didn't ask now.
Darien smiled, "It's OK. You don't need to apologize."
He continued to tell her his side of the story up until Rini arrived.
"Thanks everyone. I'm glad to know it wasn't just my life that was totally weird." Serenity said with a grin.
"Your welcome." Serena replied, with an equally big grin.
Suddenly the earth began to shake. The girls then heard a big explosion. They all ran outside to see a large cloud of black smoke rising up into the air above the city. Serenity frowned. She knew that Marius was attacking innocent people trying to lure her out.
"Marius?" Rei asked Serenity.
"Most likely." She replied.
Serenity thought back to when everyone was laughing, how happy they were. She looked at their face now; they were covered with anger and concern. 'I won't let the Black Star destroy their world!' She looked behind her at the girls and Darien.
"Stay here." She said. She held her key up, "Moon Key Power!" The others were in awe at her transformation. They hadn't seen it before.
"You can't go down there by yourself! It's too dangerous!" Serena yelled at her.
"Yeah, we'll all go." Lita said
"That's right. We're a team!" Mina added.
Serenity spun around at them with anger in her eyes.
"NO!" They were all shocked. She was really scary when she was this angry. Serenity turned her back to them, facing the city.
"I can't allow you to fight. I won't risk any of you getting hurt." There was pain in her voice. Her voice choked on tears. 'I lost you all once, I won't let that happen again. I'll fight to protect you all ... or die trying.' She thought to herself.
Serenity calmed herself. "Please stay here. I appreciate your help but you'll only get in the way." With that she took to the air and flew towards the smoke.
Everyone's jaws had dropped to the ground and their eyes had b practically jumped out of their sockets.
"SHE CAN FLY!" Serena screamed. 'This girl keeps popping up new tricks left, right and centre.' Serena thought.
"She's gotta teach me how to do that." Serena said still in shock.
"Uh ha." The rest of the group nodded in agreement to what Serena said.
