Wow, this week has been horrible! The school gave me a locker that doesn't
open, I have soooo much homework, and I don't have time to write anymore!
At least I already had this chapter written, or you wouldn't be getting it
this week. Anyway, here's chapter three.
Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon, its characters, or its story line. I do, however, own the characters Lara and Sol and I own the plot of this story.
The Secret's Out
Luna and Artemis had been sunbathing all afternoon when they saw Serena and Renee arrive at the Tsukino household.
"We haven't gotten any farther on the mystery of Serena's siblings. I wonder if Diana can tell us anything else about this brother and sister, like if they're older or younger and what they look like?" Luna got up and got ready to go inside.
"I don't know. I guess we'll just have to ask her." Artemis answered, as he followed Luna through the window and into Serena's room.
"Hi, Luna!" Serena said. "Oh, hi Artemis! I didn't know you were here. So, what do you think of Lara and her cat Sol? I don't know, but that marking looked kind of like the sun, don't you think?"
"Luna, could that be the missing piece of the puzzle? I can't remember who Serena's father was, can you?" Artemis was getting very excited.
"Now that I think about it, no I can't. Could you be right? Have we found Serena's sister?" Luna jumped up, so excited that it looked like she just might jump out the door at any second.
"What are you guys talking about? What's the missing piece? I don't get it!" Cried Serena in her typically slow to follow what everyone else has figured out fashion.
"Come on Artemis, let's go to Mina's house and see if we are right about Sol." Luna said as she ran out the door.
Artemis looked back at Serena, who was still freaking out over the conversation that she still couldn't follow, then he turned and followed Luna out the door.

Luna and Artemis arrived at Mina's house while her family was having supper. They quickly ran to the room Lara was staying in and walked through the opening that was left by the slightly open door. When they got past the door they could see that Sol was asleep on the bed. The two moon cats jumped lightly on the bed and approached Sol.
"I see you." Luna jumped and looked around. Then she saw that one of Sol's eyes was open a crack and looking at her and Artemis.
"You don't need to be so quiet, I'm not really sleeping. And yes, I do know who you are, how could I not with those obvious crescent moons on your foreheads? But by the looks on your faces, you obviously don't remember me. Although you must have suspected something for you to be sneaking up on me the way you were." Luna and Artemis were struck speechless by the way Sol could be so casual about the whole situation.
Luna recovered more quickly and replied, "Well, I must admit that we had no idea that you even existed until our daughter from the future, Diana, mentioned a sister and brother for Serenity. We have been trying to remember any siblings that the moon princess had during the Silver Millennium, but we couldn't think of any. Then Serenity mentioned that the girl Lara had a cat with a marking that looked like the sun. We thought that since neither of us could remember who Serenity's father was, that he might have been the King of the sun."
Sol sat up and looked at the other two cats with eyes that were now fully open. "You're right about Serenity's father, he was the King of the sun. The reason you can't remember Serenity's siblings is because they were children of the sun. I found Lara in Canada, and I haven't left her since. It was so strange, I never spoke to her or told her my name, but somehow she knew, I'm not sure how. I can tell that you're just dying for me to confirm Lara's identity as the princess of the sun, so I will tell you, yes I believe that she is. But even if she is the princess, I don't intend to tell her, I just want to protect her."
Artemis had finally gotten over his initial shock and was ready to speak. "We can understand that. When the girls finished off Queen Beryl we wanted to let them lead normal lives. Unfortunately, that was impossible. First there was Anne and Allen to contend with, then the Dark Moon, then Mistress Nine and her host body's father, and finally we now have a new enemy that we don't know much about. If we could let our girls have normal lives then we would, so we will do anything possible to help you protect Lara without ever having to tell her who she is."
"Really? I didn't know that you would understand my situation so well. Thank you for the offer of help, I just might need it. There are other things that I remember from my time on the sun, but it might be better if I didn't tell you right now." At that moment the three cats heard footsteps in the hall.
"Oh, where did you two come from? Mina isn't that you're cat Artemis and Serena's cat Luna? Oh, that's cute they came to see Sol!" At that moment the lights all went out.

Well, that's all for this week. Hope you liked it. Please review, I would love to hear from you.
