Im doing this I one big swoop. The first four chapters have already been typed and ready for a long time, so its been easy to upload these quickly, but it may take alittle more time from now on. I try really hard to do this quickly.
I DO NOT OWN SAILOR MOON OR ANY RELATED CHARACTERS (though I truly wish I did. But enough of my wishful thinking! You get the point, don't you? Someone else owns it, and they are a lot happier then I am!)

"Life turned upside down"
By: Nikki
Chapter 4
[Christmas Eve- 1st meeting]
MarsFire- "So have you seen HIM yet! Huh huh?"
MoonBunny- "Nope, but I'm most likely to see him tonight at the Christmas Masquerade!"
MercuryIce- " So, Bunny, what are you going to wear?"
MoonBunny- "I'm not sure, I'm going shopping later today!"
Aphrodite- "I wish we could go with you. I miss our mall trips. You have to send pics., that's an order!"
MoonBunny- "Stop, your going to make me cry."
"Well, guys, I have to go, ok. I'll talk to you right after the party. Love ya, Bye!"
(Everyone)- "Bye, Bunny!"
[After shopping for 3 hrs, Serena finds the perfect dress.]
[Later at the start of the party.]
Serena walked slowly down the grand staircase. One might have thought she was just showing off, but all she really wanted was to get down the stairs without tripping and falling down the stairs. Plus, she wanted to look and act graceful tonight.
She wore a long silver dress which had a tight bodice and a puffy skirt. Her skirt floated around her, flowing down, and dragging on the floor behind her. The dress was so long in front, that it caused her to have to pick it up, in order to walk.
Since it was a masquerade, Serena had attached small, delicate, silver wings, to the back of her dress. She was an Angel. To add to the effect, she left her ankle long, golden hair down. She had silver body dust on her arms and a little on her face. Along with her hand made, rime stone studded, silver mask, she looked beautiful.
{Darien}
"Darien, dear, it is almost time to go. Are you ready?" Darien's Mom, Lydia, asked.
"Yes, Mom, I'll be right down!" Darien answered back, while looking in the mirror one last time.
Darien had decided on something simple. He wore a black tuxedo with a long black cape, with red satin lining. Along with the ensemble, he wore a simple white mask. He looked tall, dark, and mysterious, just the way he liked. (Picture Tuxedo Mask without the top hat)
{Serena- An hour later}
'Boy this is boring! I'm stuck at this party with a lot of old people. And all the young ones are way too young. They are practically telling me to baby-sit. I thought this party was going to be cool. So far I haven't seen one person my age. I really wish the girls were here.'
As Serena stepped out onto the balcony, for some fresh air, she got a negative vibe.
"There's going to be trouble!" Serena said to no one, as she looked around for any sign of the generals. "Boy, now I really wish the girls were here!" She whispered nervously to herself.
All of a sudden she felt a hand on her arm. She jumped and gave a little scream, then turned around. There stood a very well built young man in a black tuxedo, cape, and white mask. He looked to be only just a little bit older then her.
{Darien- a little time before}
'Boy, this is boring. I haven't seen anyone my age here. Man, why did Andrew have to get sick. Now I'm stuck here with no one to talk… Wait who is that. She looks like a beautiful angle. Wait a sec, maybe because she is an angle-costume- duh. But she does look young.
Darien followed her onto the balcony.
"Miss." He said, but she just kept walking.
"Miss. Excuse me." And to make sure she heard him, he reached out and gently grabbed hold of her arm. She gave a little jump and gave a small scream, before turning around to face me.
'She's more beautiful close up.'
{Both}
"Oh sorry, you kinda scared me!" Serena said
'Boy her voice is like little bells, it is so nice.' Darien thought.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I was just wondering, uhh, if you might want to…Dance!" Darien responded.
"Well, I guess so, if you really don't mind sore feet! (He-he)"
Darien held out his hand and Serena gently placed her small hand in his. Just then, Serena had a flashback, from sometime she didn't know.
(Flashback)
She gave her hand to a masked man. They walked in from the balcony and into a large ball room with many people dancing. She was wearing a long white dress with gold trimming. (Think of her Princess dress) As she looked around, she saw an older women with silvery long white hair, done exactly like Serena's. As the women smiled, reality came smashing back in.
(End)
Serena found herself on the dance floor with the masked stranger. She wondered, the rest of the dance, about what the flashback could have meant. 'Could it have something to do with my past?'
All of a sudden Serena was swept off the dance floor. Serena looked up at the young man, and he looked down at her. At that moment their eyes met, and Serena saw eyes. They were stormy ocean blue, opposite from her peaceful sky blue ones.
They continued walking, and as they reached the gardens, Darien started up a simple conversation.
"So, I never asked your name!"
"Oh, it's Bunny… Well really that's just everyone's nickname for me. My friends, back home, gave it to me, but it's really catchy, and my parents started to call me it to. Of course my little brother still prefers to call me other names. If you know what I mean?"
"Sorry, nope. I'm an only child!"
"Oh, lucky you. Well I mean names like stupid, baka, Ondigo Atama."
"What's Ondigo Atama mean?"
"It's Japanese for dumpling head… So what's your name?"
"Dar!"
"So how old are you?"
"18, how about you?"
"Oh, I'm 16."
"So why are you here?" Darien asked
"Oh, my parents. I also thought this party would be fun, but so far you're the first young person I've seen all night. Why are you here?"
"Oh, my parents made me come. They are friends of the host?"
"Oh, who are your parents, maybe I know them?"
"Oh, they're Dr. Robert and Linda Shilds!"
"What???"
'Oh no, those are Darien's parents. Oh No!!" – Serena
"Yeh, my dad's going to be the new Vice President!"
"That by any chance, wouldn't make you Darien Shilds?"
"Yeh, have we met before!"
"No, No, No, No. (He-he)!" Serena said quickly
"Well it's been a very nice evening, I have to go now. Well bye!"
"Wait!!" Darien tried to stop her, but she Serena had already run off.
'Boy, that girl can run fast! I didn't think it possible in such a big dress!' Darien thought, shocked.
(Keep in mind that they still have their masks on.)
{Serena}
'Oh my goodness! That was DARIEN! Boy was I wrong about him. Well at least he didn't find out my real name. (He-he)!"
All of a sudden, Serena heard a scream. It sounded like a little girl. Serena picked up her shirt a little and grabbed her Moon Locket from around her ankle. Then she ran as fast a she could, using her Sailor Moon instincts to take her to the spot of the attack.
When she got there, there was the ugliest monster she had ever seen. 'And it stinks! Oh no, there's the little girl!' Serena transformed as quickly as she could, "MOON PRISIM POWER!!!"
{Darien}
"What the Hell? What was that?" Darien said as he heard a scream from somewhere in the garden.
All of a sudden he felt a tugging pain and began to run faster and faster, as if something were pulling him. When it finally stopped, he found himself in a large rose garden. That was when he caught sight of the monster. He felt like running as far away as he could, but then he noticed a little girl right in front of it. He would have ran, picked her up, and gotten to the house, but instead he saw a flash of blue, white, and gold swoop down from a tree and grab the little girl.
She stopped and looked around, then she spotted him. The young lady, in the short uniform, ran over and handed the child over to him.
"Take her inside, now!"
Darien just stared at her. He couldn't speak.
"Please Darien! TAKE HER INSIDE!"
The girl, who somehow knew his name, turned quickly and jumped up into a tree. Before he ran off to the house, he heard her say something, though.
"I stand for Love and Justice! I am Sailor Moon! You ruined my somewhat perfect night, and you're going to pay. You are Moon Dust!"
Darien listened a little longer, then the girl started to squirm and cry in his arms, so he had no other choice then to go back to find the little girl's parents. 'Why was she so calm with that girl Sailor Moon?"
[Serena/ a.k.a. Sailor Moon]
'Oh, boy, this ones strong. Of course it might have something to do with the fact that I haven't fought anything in over TWO YEARS!'
'I wonder if they knew I was here. That's the only explanation I can think of. I guess the scouts were wrong!'
'Well, the only thing I can do is use the moon wand. DAMEIT, I hate being the only one without power.'
"MOON COSMIC POWER"
All of a sudden a blinding flash of light streamed from the stick in her hands. It was bright enough to illuminate the whole garden, and could be seen back at the house. But as quickly as it had appeared, it was gone.
{Darien}
Darien ran as fast as he could back to the spot where he had seen "Sailor Moon"! But all he found, when he got there, was Bunny, the girl he had been with earlier. He went up to her, while looking around.
