Chapter 4 Sailor Scouts to the Rescue!
A/N, well the title really stinks but I really can't think of anything else that would work… anyway, R&R for me.
Serena sat on her bed, staring at the remainder of her only link to her own dimension. She sighed heavily, "Why?" she cried, "why did you have to go and break it like that!"
There was a knock at the door. "Yes?" Serena called tentatively, "Who's there?"
"It's Bulma dear, are you okay?" The elder woman with blue hair called, "you've been in your room all day..."
"I'm fine." Serena said, tossing the broken object to the ground vehemently.
"Mind telling me what happened to the bathroom then?" Bulma asked.
Serena sighed, "Come in then, I guess." She said.
The door opened slowly and Bulma delicately entered, shutting the door carefully behind her. She looked at the wrecked compowder on the floor, "Why, what happened to that?" She asked, picking it up, "It looks as though it's been crushed or something…"
"Yeah, it was." Serena said dully, "Sorry about the bathroom, I had an… uninvited guest that ran away…"
"Were you attacked?" Bulma asked slowly, eyes wide, "in my house?"
Serena nodded, "it was the same thing that brought me here." She said, "And it broke my link to my friends…"
Bulma inspected the machine she held in her hand, "Well… maybe I can fix it." She said, "Would you like me to give it a shot?"
"I suppose." Serena said, "I mean, what can it hurt?" And then, thoughtfully, "You might like Amy, she's smart to…"
"It'll take a while; I hope you've got something to do." Bulma said.
"Oh, I was going to explore, this place is new to me, get to know the place in case their plan fails."
Serena stood, "I'll go right now- eh…" Her stomach growled, "Maybe after I've eaten."
"Your plate was set in the microwave, dear, you may need to heat it up." Bulma said, as she left the room, have fun now!"
Serena walked carefully down the stairs, around the corner, and slammed into- Vegita, "Hey!" Serena exclaimed, "Watch where you're going!"
"Get out of my way, woman!" Vegita said, thrusting Serena aside, she landed heavily, "You know, you could be a little nicer…" Serena muttered crossing her arms and pouting like a child.
Vegita sighed heavily and glared at her before continuing on his way. Serena stood grudgingly, "he could have helped me up." She said kicking at the wall before walking on.
She came upon the kitchen and found the strange microwave, she hurriedly set it for a minute and a half, and waited for the food, mouth watering heavily as the smell of fried eggs, bacon, sausage, and pancakes wafted up to her nose, "Oh, it smells so yummy!" Serena cried, "I'm starving."
The timer went off and Serena opened small door and grabbed her plate. Almost before she got a grip on her fork she began to dig into the food that was on the plate. She shoveled mouthfuls into her mouth; it was all she could do to finally stop herself from scraping the plate clean of its last scrap of contents. She left the plate in the overly large sink and walked out of the house through the kitchen door. She stepped into the trees and onto the path that lay hidden within their midst. She wandered through the trees, stopping when she reached the bank of a river, "It couldn't hurt to stop and-" A loud yawn escaped her mouth, "maybe, rest for a while… it's so very peaceful."
She lay down in the plush grass, staring at the light clouds that floated overhead, fluffy and white. Her eyes drooped closed and she was back home, in her Tokyo, in her bedroom, "Serena, you'll be late!" Her mother called, "your friends are waiting!"
"Alright, mom!" She shouted, "I'll be there in a minute!"
She ran down the stares, backpack over her shoulder, "You know." She said once she was outside with the others, "I had this crazy dream last night."
"Oh, Serena, "Lita laughed, "Your dreams are always crazy."
"But this one was the craziest I ever had; I was pulled from our dimension and taken to another, where I met this boy named Trunks, and his mean father!" Serena pouted, "This thing was after me, it thought that I was very weak without my friends, and Rae, you had taken Darien from me." Serena began to cry, "It was so horrible!"
Rae stopped, "Why would I take him from you, I accepted that you were lovers in another life, and remembered it, you guys were meant for each other, but I still think he would have been better off with me!" Rae's tone changed, "You're so whiny these days." She teased.
"Hey, you jerk!" Serena stuck her tongue out at Rae; it was one of their usual battles.
"Serena." A dark voice called, "where are you hiding?"
"Who's there?" Serena called, she was alone and in the dark, "What do you want?"
"Don't tell me that you've forgotten about me already." Prince Diamond appeared before her, his hair had grown, but there was something strange- it was now jet black, as were his eyes, "I love you, my queen, your eyes… they're so beautiful, I almost had you once, I won't fail again."
"That dream, it wasn't a dream, was it, this is the dream!" Serena cried despairingly, "What was that thing that crawled out of the drain?"
"Why, that was me of course." Diamond said, "At the time I hadn't been fully healed yet, I am now, and can thus bring you to me."
Serena jerked out of the dream and sat up to- rain, it was falling hard, and there were large chunks of hail coming down with it. Serena cried out as she was pummeled with freezing rain and hail. She dove under the cover of a tree, "I've never seen a storm like this." She gasped and flinched as a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by a loud crack of thunder, "What do you want!" She cried, "Just leave me alone!"
"Princess!" A distant voice called, "Serena!"
Serena stood, "Lita?" She whispered, "Is that really your voice?"
"Damn it!" a voice, much closer exclaimed, "They've gotten here sooner than expected."
Serena shivered and dove from her cover, "I'm coming- oof!" She exclaimed as she tripped over something unseen, "What the-" She gasped as she saw the prince standing before her, his third eye had opened and Serena was being drawn involuntarily towards it, "Noooo!" She cried, her voice was lost in the storm.
"Serena!" Sailor Venus froze the minute she exited the trees, "What!" She cried, "Why can't I move?"
The others exited the trees, Sailor Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, even Minimoon was there, and also, hidden in the shadows, was Tuxedo mask, "You guys came!" Serena exclaimed, tears in her eyes, "I can't believe it!"
Diamond now held her helpless form in his grasp.
A/N well, there's chapter four for ya, left you hanging for chapter five, it will be updated soon! R&R for me.
