Thanksgiving Chapter 11

Darien picked her the day before Thanksgiving for their date. They rode the car, and Samara was blind folded and they were laughing. "Were are you taking me Darien?" "You will see." "Darien!" whined Samara. "Nope..." "No fair!" He laughed. They car stopped and Darien helped her out. She heard horse, "Darien where are we? A stable?" "Maybe..." "Darien tell me!" "Nope." Suddenly they stopped and Darien took of the blind fold, in front of her was a reddish chestnut horse in front of her. Samara smiled and petted the horse. "Darien pulled out the horse for Samara and then pulled out a black stallion. "Oh, wow! Hello there," Samara reached out to touch the horse, when Darien said, "Don't he will bite you." "No he wouldn't." "Samara...don't, he bits" Samara petted him and nuzzled her hand and the licked her cheek. "See? He likes me." The stable boys all stared, the horse had never done that, "Ma'am you have a way with the horse, he bite us and we've had he science we was born, he's three know and still bites and stomps at us. Shoot, Darien is the only one who really could ride, him and that took 2 years and he still bucks him off a lot and bites. None of us can ride, we've tried, we rode him maybe once, if your lucky. But he likes you."

"Yes, he does. What's his name?" "Well it's......Hmm... you no what, now that I think of him he doesn't have a name, we always called him boy. You know come on boy. You need to eat fella." "Hmm..." "Why don't you name him." "OK. So what should we call you huh?" The horse snorted. Samara laid her head against the horse's and closed her eyes. She listened to the horse breathing, his heartbeat, she could feel his personality, she could feel his soul and knew the perfect name for him, "Phoenix" "It fits" said one of the stable boys. "Samara why don't you take Phoenix and I take Rose, here." "OK. Come on Phoenix." Samara saddled him and climb up. They rode out in a walk to the paths. It was beautiful out, Starry and a full moon. "Darien this is beautiful" "I knew you would like it." "Like it I love it." "then we will do it again." "That would be great." They smiled at each other.

The morning of Thanksgiving came. Samara was up at 6:30am to help her mom with dinner. Silver Strike and Stardust were playing in the living room, Stardust patted the ball across the room and Silver Strike brought it back. It was really cute, they recorded it on video and took pictures. Samara's weight was back to normal, thin but not like before, the circles around her eyes were gone, and she got some of her coloring back. She was cheerful, but not thankful of anything except that she didn't have to worry about her mother, she was safe. Darien came around 7:00 and they started decorating while Ms. Zumo started on the rice. Darien would lean over and kiss Samara on the cheek, temple or lips when ever he could and she would laugh. They were almost finished when the phone rang and it was Serena who was still asleep, "Mom -yawn- woke me up, to help cook and so I can go over and help. -yawn- When do you -yawn- ..I'm so tired.. want me to come over?" "Whenever." "Ok I'll come over later. -yawn- Bye!" "Bye. Serena is coming over later, mom." "Ok dear." Samara went and put her arms around his neck, Darien placed his arms around her waist, they kissed deeply. "Samara, you must be strong but know that I'm here." "I know, Darien and I will need your support." They let go and went back to work.

They finished decoration, Serena, with family, Amy with her mom, Mina's mother and father, and Raye's grandpa were already here. Serena's brother was setting the table the parents were finished up in the kitchen, the animals were in Samara's talking, and the girls and Darien were out buying fireworks. They came home, the table was set and filled with food. They placed the fireworks on the table that was by the door and they sat down, the animals came in and went to the kitchen which had their thanksgiving dinner. They sat down and looked at one another, said a pray for they girls who were gone and the girls who were till here, and for all their families. They ate, making jokes and laughing, trying to make this a nice Thanksgiving. They were having a good time when the doors to the balcony flung open and cold wind came in, making thing fall and break. The girls, Darien and the animals looked at one another. An evil laugh echo through the apartment. "Amy?...Amy?" a voice called. Samara leaped out of her seat and grabbed Amy's wrist, pulling from her seat, all stood now. "Mom get everyone into your room quick!" "But.." Do it!!" Ms. Zumo listen to her daughter mainly cause she was frightened. Once the adults were in the room, and they thought the kids were coming; instead Samara used her powers to slammed the door shut, making it look like the wind, the parents suddenly tried to open it. The girls and Darien cried back to look like they were scared. "Amy!!" called her mother. "Mom!!" she called back. They transformed.

A women, a man and Chris T. came in all in armor. They used energy to blocked the adults from hearing what was going on, all hear them cried that they couldn't heard anything, what was going on. "Sailor Mercury your friends miss you," said the women. "Who are you?" cried Sailor Moon. "I am Kornia's sister Kate." "I am Kornia's brother Materio and you Sailor Universe will pay for her death!" "I killed her and I will kill you as well" replied Sailor Universe glad that the adults couldn't hear. "Oh no you wont we will take Sailor Mercury and you will not be able to do anything about it." "Scouts protect Sailor Mercury, put her before you," said Sailor Universe, " Dark King will not change he list, if he kills one of us then his plan fails, if he doesn't ever get Sailor Mercury then his plan fails. Mercury you listen to me good. Whatever you do don't even think about protecting us, you think of no one but your self and those who have already been taken and if anything happens teleport yourself to my mother." Sailor Mercury understood to teleport to the moon, to the Moon Kingdom, to Queen Samara.

"I am Sailor Universe and I will right wrong and triumph over evil and on behalf of the Moon and Universe I will defeat you!" "And I am Sailor Moon and will take up that cry!" "I am Sailor Mercury and I behalf of Mercury I will take up that cry as well." "I am Tuxedo Mask, Prince of Earth and I will take up that cry!" "Mercury Icy Water!!" "Moonlight Scepter!" "Universe Silver Blade Beam!" "Hahaha! Is that suppose to hurt!?" laughed Chris T. "Sailor Mercury come and we will leave your friends alone." Sailor Mercury didn't want her friends hurt and knew that Sailor Universe was venerable. As if Sailor Moon could read her mind she yelled, "Don't even think about it Sailor Mercury!" Sudden all three warrior ran around them pushing them all back to back, they were nothing was blurs. Energy blast came rolling at them and they were unable to block. Suddenly everything stopped and Sailor Mercury was gone. Samara didn't cry, she didn't break down, she screamed. Sailor Moon joined her. They scream, that was all they could do. Their scream weaken them and there outfits disappeared. They tried themselves out and collapse against each other onto the floor, the adults finally got out. Darien was checking their pulse. They adults went into action calling police and ambulance. They were check, and their busies and cuts tended, as was Darien.

The police wrote down their story of what happened and left. Serena went home with her mom. Samara stayed up and drank tea, while her mother and Amy's mother slept in Ms. Zumo's room. Darien was with her. "You OK?" "It was so quick. Their powers are growing. We will train, me and Serena. Everyday." "OK. I'll help. You need to go to sleep." She nodded she, got up showered and changed. When she came out of the bathroom Darien was still there and was putting blankets and pillows on the couch, he had changed into a loose shirt and winter pants. She walked to him and sad smile on her face. They laid on the couch in each other's arms, She fell asleep and soon he too. The mothers woke and saw them, they smile at each other. Each day their relationship grew. They made a cute couple.
