Serena awoke with a feeling of total contentment. Allowing herself to stretch out her eyes popped open when she didn't hit the bed post at the end of her bed. She found herself in a huge room made of what seems greenish black crystal. The bed was covered in silver satin sheets. When she looked at herself she noticed she was wearing a black night gown and she had to hallucinating because she could have sworn she was sitting on her hair! Jumping out of bed she went to the nearest mirror and sure enough her hair was as long as it was before and even longer. Her long blonde hair fell to the floor in cascades but that didn't bother her as much as her face. On her forehead was an upside down moon insignia that was all black. On her ears were a set of black crystal earrings. "What the heck?" All she remembered was going to the park with Damon and then standing by the lake. She remembered crying and Damon consoling her and then wishing she could be with him forever. After that she black out. Deep in thought Serena jumped when she heard the knock at the door. Looking down at herself she realized she had no decent clothes on and before she knew it the night gown was gone and in its place was a whole new outfit. Even her hair was done. Serena touched the choker around her neck and then the moon medallion. Where did all this come from?
"Good afternoon." Serena turned around to find Damon standing at the door holding a tray of food. "You must be famished. Here you will need to build up your strength."
"What happened to me Damon? Where am I?"
"Shh, Shh. Everything is going to just fine, don't you remember last night?"
"Last night?..." Damon pulled her over to the bed and Serena even through all of the fear and confusion melted in his arms.
"Just relax, all will be clear in moment." Serena noticed for the first time Damon also had a black moon on his forehead but this time it changed into an eye and Serena felt waves of pure power flowing towards her. Every aspect of his goals came to her. She wasn't sure if it was this new energy or all those new emotions that were swirling in her mind but she believed him. His true voice was the first thing to break through the spell of the moment. "They don't call me Damon around here Serena, I usually go by Prince Diamond."
"Prince?"
"Yes, Prince of the Nega moon. I meant everything I said to you as Damon. I will never hurt you or let you be unhappy again. I swear to it."
"I believe you."

Hours later Serena was sitting on the bed trying to figure out this warping thing. Lunch was long gone and her and Diamond were spending the afternoon together. She got the image thing to work well. She found she could change her appearance at will from what she was wearing now to even her old look as normal Serena. This warping things was beyond her though. "Diamond I just can't do it. I keep shocking myself."
"It is a mental thing. Just relax it will come naturally."
"How am I supposed to relax?"
"I've got a few ideas." Diamond just grinned.
"Lets try just one and make it at most PG." Damon kissed Serena on the lips and before she could even respond she found herself on the other side of the room. "I did it!"
"I can see you did."
"I am going to have to do something about my name though. I am not Serena anymore well not like I was before. And I am not Serenity well not yet at least."
"What about Pearl? Your true identity will be known only to me." Serena touched the choker and knew the new name clicked.
"I like it. Pearl it is!"
"Pearl, I can't stay in here all day. I do have duties to attend to. Not to mention Wiseman wants to meet you."
"No more fun and games I guess. Perhaps later." Pearl took Diamonds offered hand and soon both of them disappeared from the room.

Emerald and Sapphire were waiting in the throne room patiently. They had received the summons early that morning that Diamond had returned with a new ally. Emerald was still seething over her dismissal by Diamond all those weeks ago. When was he going to realize he belonged to her? As if on cue Diamond appeared in his throne with a grin from ear to ear. What was making him so happy?
"Greetings Brother! It is good to have you back."
"It is good to be back Sapphire. Good day to you Emerald."
"Always a pleasure to see you your Highness." Emerald put on her most seductive smile and was caught off her guard when another female voice broke in from next to the throne.
"Diamond I do believe she is hitting on you." A glowing light not unlike a shooting star showed up near the throne and in its place appeared a girl that resembled Neo-Queen Serenity but all in black and bearing the black moon. "Too bad you're taken."
"Who are you!" Emerald was seething. Diamond was holding her hand and looked happy! So this was the wench.
"May I introduce Pearl. The future queen of Crystal Tokyo."
"You found Princess Serenity!" Sapphire looked happy. Their plan was working.
"Yes he did. Soon all of your wishes shall be met. With the moon princess on our side we will be unstoppable." Wiseman sat hunched over his crystal ball. Pearl looked on with curiosity. So this was the advisor. "I am glad to finally be meeting you face to face your highness."
Emerald let herself go the sideline. The intrusion of this new woman was unsettling. The others were planning their next move. "With Pearl we will finally be able to conquer Crystal Tokyo and get rid of Serenity. Pearl will take her place and together we will rule this world." Diamond was seeing all his dreams come to life. Pearl was studying the hologram of the Crystal city when she noticed the four point force field surrounding the palace. The Silver crystal that was inside of her now reacted to the power and she cursed under her breath, things were not going to be as easy as they thought.
"Well, we are not going to conquer anything with that force field in our way. The only way to destroy it is from the inside."
"What do you mean your highness?"
"Please Sapphire call me Pearl. I mean that it is being powered by planet power. None of our offensive weapons can break it. The only way to stop it is to stop the four scouts inside."
"But how do we accomplish that? You said yourself we can't get through to them."
"Wiseman, would it be possible to get another crystal from you so I could go back to the past?"
"Pearl what do you have planned?" Diamond had a look amusement on his face. She was planning something.
"Since I joined you willingly it has its added perks, I remember everything from my old life including who those women are. If I can disband them somehow then it will weaken them enough for our forces to attack."
"I can have the crystal ready for you tomorrow. Do you know when you want to go back?"
"Shortly after Diamond and I left for here, it has to appear as if I never left at all."
"Meetings adjourned then, you are all dismissed." Sapphire and Wiseman were the first to leave. Diamond and Pearl never noticed Emerald still sulking in the corner. "Are you sure you are ready for this Pearl?"
"More ready than ever. I know I can't beat them alone but if I play on their fears I will be victorious."
"I want to go with you. This is too big for you to go alone."
"I will be fine, but if you want to come you can. They would notice if Damon disappeared too."
"Bitch!" the curse from the shadows caught both of their attentions and Pearl could sense whoever it was leaving. She had a pretty good idea of who it was.
"Diamond, I have something to do. I will see you later okay?" Giving him a quick kiss she disappeared herself. Pearl followed Emerald to a dark hallway and waited in the shadows until Emerald showed herself. Forming a small dagger of black energy she threw it at Emerald catching her dress on the wall. Emerald cursed and tried to pull herself free while Pearl walked up to her with a sly grin on her face. "Well, hello there Emerald, snag your dress on something?"
"You! What do you want?"
"To talk, set down some rules."
"I only take orders from Diamond, no one else." Emerald's smile was scarier than a bad dream.
"Unless you value your rank in this party I would suggest you listen and listen well. I am not going to kill you. One that is too messy and we need the man power. Two, if you dare to make any moves on Diamond I can guarantee that I will not be held responsible for my actions."
"You are all bark and no bite. I don't believe you." Emerald hissed out the last words. This girl was pissing her off. Pearl merely smiled sweetly and before Emerald's eyes another dagger formed in Pearls hands this one was aimed at Emerald. Pearl let it fly and it hit the wall right next to Emerald's face.
"Accident's happen Emerald; I would hate to see one of my Diamond's best warriors gone due to one. Have a nice day!" With a smile and wave Pearl disappeared and so did her daggers holding Emerald to the wall.
"Damn her!"

Back at the present Richie was running back to the Turner house. He had just told Rei and the others about his mission to save his father but he left out the little tid bit about Serena missing. As he was making his way back to the house he rounded the corner getting ready to hypnotize the family again to hide Serena's disappearance when he saw Damon's white convertible in the drive way. Richie ran home and was lost for words when he saw Serena and Damon sitting on the couch watching the TV with Uncle Ken and Aunt Irene.
"Hey Richie! Did you find what you were looking for?" Serena smiled from the couch. She was wearing the same thing he saw her in last and her hair was short again. Did he dream all that?
"Yeah, I did."
"Good, Damon and I were about to go out looking for you."
"Well, it is getting late. I had a great time tonight Serena. I will see you in work then Ken. Goodnight."
"Night Damon, have a safe trip home." Ken waved from the couch and Serena got up to walk him to the door.
"You had better get to bed Richie it is getting late. I will be up soon. See I told ya, nothing went wrong." Richie watched as Serena walked Damon to the door and a sinking feeling hit his stomach. Something was off.
