---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------- At the temple the scouts had all gone back to their normal forms and were sitting in Rei's room talking over the new monster. The same boy that had snuck from the corner was watching them through a window. Amy was busily typing in her computer for information and Rei was consulting the fire leaving the others in the room to speculate.
"I guess this means our vacation is over. It was too good to be true anyway." Lita layed back on the floor and just stared at the ceiling. "I was getting kinda bored anyway just sitting around not doing anything. Nothing like a good fight!"
"Lita! How could you say that?" Mina threw a pillow at Lita and only heard the muffled response that sounded like what the heck.. but you couldn't be certain for sure. "I for one have never seen anything like that even in all the time I was working as Sailor V."
"Not to mention none of us really fought today. Serena did all the work. Thank god for her photographic memory or else I wouldn't have anything to look up."
"Thanks a lot Amy." Serena clipped back her now short hair and leaned on the table in thought.
"Serena what's wrong?" Mina sat next to Serena and tried to comfort her friend. "We will find out who is behind this and beat them to the ground. We have done it before and we will do it again. Don't worry."
"It's not that. Before I actually fought it this monster did something weird, it hesitated. When I first talked to it and offered the ultimatum it looked to the corner as if for permission but I swore I didn't see anyone there. Then there was the fact that it wasn't attacking the people directly it was scaring them away like it wasn't trying to hurt them but get them to leave. Aren't these monsters always after energy or something?" Darien walked in the room carrying a tray of drinks and noticed Serena's mood.
"You okay Serena? You did really good today."
"She is fine Darien just deep in thought."
"Oh." Just then Rei walked in with a very puzzled look on her face.
"Well, I have good news and bad news."
"Rei, lets try the good news first." Serena sat back and shook off her bad mood.
"I know who sent this monster at the mall, it was a boy."
"A boy, and he is attached to you somehow Serena."
"Bad news?" Lita was confused but she wanted all the cards on the table.
"He is here right now watching us. I know you are there you had better come out before I put fire under that window!" As if on cue a boy of about 12 pulled himself up over the sill and faced the table of onlookers. He was dressed like any normal kid with somewhat faded jeans and a rumpled shirt but what was so catching was his purplish silver hair and wide violet silver eyes that looked like Serena's in all respect save for their color. "Who are you?"
"I am sorry I had to sneak up on all of you but it was the only way I could make sure I found you. For now you can call me Richie." Richie seemed to be staring at Serena mostly and the others out of habit went around her. "You are Serena correct?"
"Yes, how do you know who I am? Why did you send that monster?"
"I was sent here to help you and protect you. I can't tell you who sent me at the moment but I let that monster loose to protect you from a very big danger."
"What kind of danger?" Rei studied this boy carefully, he was hiding something big she could feel it.
"Like before I can't tell you. It is for your protection," He motioned to the whole group. "But I can tell you this. My mother sent me and she sends her best wishes."
"Who is your Mother?" Amy had joined the rest of the group and saw on her computer a very confusing bit of data but she didn't want to believe it. It wasn't possible.
"Let's just say you know you Mercury, but then again your computer has never been wrong." Amy choked back a gasp.
"But that is impossible unless."
"I were from the future?"
"What!!!" The room seemed to erupt in surprise.
"Guys, according to my computer his energy is the same as Serena's Lunar Energy and Earth's Energy that means."
"I am your son Serena, I am sorry to put it all on you so fast." Serena just stared in shock at this boy. Ahs she looked deeper she saw the similarities and differences. She didn't deny that the connection was there but the mystery of his father was on her mind if he was part Earth energy.
"Wait a minute! Does this mean Serena and I have a family after all?" Darien seemed to steal the thoughts right from her mind. Richie just looked at Darien and then calmly nodded his head in denial.
"No I am sorry but you are not my father. To be correct none of you have met my Father yet." Darien's hope seemed to shatter in that instant. He knew for sure now he was never going to get her back.
"Guys, I think we should all call it a night. We can ask Richie more questions tomorrow for now I think he should stay with you Serena. I mean you are family." Mina felt the winds of change. Something was going on and she felt it was for the right.
"Okay, but how I am going to explain him to my parents?"
"I have already done that. Don't ask. For now I am your cousin from the States." Richie went to the window and pulled up a small backpack. "Whenever you are ready."
The group disbanded and Darien excused himself from walking Serena home and instead went home. Serena could see he was hurt by the news but she wasn't disappointed. She knew deep inside that destiny had something in store for her. Serena looked at the boy walking next to her and she was still in aww even though she knew it was true in her heart. But who was the father? He reminded her of a person she had seen recently but she couldn't place the memory. His Silver-purple hair was clean cut but it still fell in his face at places. "I actually let you have you hair like that?"
"Yup, but then again you never could get dad to fix his either."
"Oh."
"Why did you cut your hair? I though you loved your hair as it was?"
"I wanted a change. Lots of things have been happening. You wouldn't understand. What were you protecting me from?"
"You will find out soon. I promised I wouldn't tell you yet."
"Well, if I told you that it was for a reason.boy is this weird. Talking about things I have yet to do." Serena shook her head and laughed this was getting to be a bit topsy turvy. "We are home. We are going to a party tomorrow I guess you are going too?"
"It is a family event isn't it?"
"Yeah I guess." Serena opened the door and it seemed Richie was right. As soon as they walked in her mom and dad were talking to both of them.
"Richie, Serena. How was the movie?"
"Pretty good Dad."
"Thanks for letting us go out tonight Uncle Ken."
"Anytime, now it is getting late. Don't you think you two should be heading to bed?"
Serena wasn't going to ruin her luck and quickly said goodnight and her and Richie ran upstairs. The guest room was full of his stuff as if he had been there for weeks and Serena could only wonder as to how he did all this. She could have sworn these things were there that morning. "Well, I guess it is goodnight Richie." Waving she went to her room and took off her clothes and put on her PJ's. In her closet she noticed the cream gown she had purchased from Chic. Right before the meeting she had run in and picked up the gown. Serena sank under her covers and let sleep take over for a few hours.
