Chapter 2
In the future...

Serena looked up from her desk as she heard footsteps, and Molly's breath intake. Serena was speechless. A tall boy with blonde hair and blue eyes was standing at the front of her class. Ms. Haruna introduced him. "Class, this is Terence."

Terence nodded.

"Terence, why don't you take that seat next to Serena?"

Terence nodded his head and walked towards the seat. He took out his chair and sat down.

"Since class is almost over," Ms. Haruna said. "Who would like to show Terence around?" Most of the girl's hands shot up in the air immediately. "Mol..." Ms. Haruna began, but Terence interrupted her.
"If you don't mind, Ms. Haruna," he said, "I would like Serena to show me around."

The whole class was shocked by Terence's statement.

Ms. Haruna nodded, slowly attempting to recover from the shock herself. "Serena?" the teacher asked, a little unsure. Then turning to Serena, the teacher asked her if she'd mind.

"Okay."

The bell rang. They put their books into their bags and headed out the door. Terence following Serena.

Serena showed Terence around the school during recess.

By lunch hour, everyone in the school knew about the new kid choosing Serena as his guide. Terence walked with Serena at lunch towards Lita and Amy.
"Hey, you guys," Serena said.
"Hey, Serena," Lita and Amy said.
"Guys, this is Terence, uh..."
"Kopis," Terence said, shaking Amy's hand then Lita's.

Amy and Lita looked at each other. They were each thinking the same thing. Terence and Serena looked so much alike! As if they were twins!

"See ya, Serena," Lita said. "Amy has to show me how to use the new program we're learning in computer class."

"See ya," Serena said.

"Good-bye," Terence said.

Once both of them had finished eating, Terence looked at Serena. "Where's the track?" he asked.

Serena's eyes widened in surprise. Why would anyone want to go to the track? Especially at lunch?

"The track? I'll show you." Serena led him to the field.

Terence thanked Serena for showing him, and ran in the change rooms. He appeared soon after in shorts and a T-shirt. Serena sat on a nearby bleacher and watched as Terence began running laps. Serena was so into watching him, that she never noticed Molly come up beside her.

"Hey, Serena," Molly said.

Serena nearly jumped out of her skin. "Hey, Moll," she said.

Molly looked out at the track. "Are you and Terence related?" Molly asked, suddenly.

Serena was confused by this question. Where would Molly get that idea? "Where'd ya get that idea from, Moll?" Serena asked.

"Serena, don't tell me that you can't see how much you look alike," Molly said. "You almost look like twins."

Serena looked back to the field and looked for a few minutes at Terence. "I can see a that we look a little alike," Serena said, remembering Terence's blue eyes, and seeing his blonde hair. They were almost the same height too. "But we're not related," Serena said, after a while. "I would know if I was related to him."

Molly laughed.

Suddenly, Terence came running up to Serena. "I'll just go get changed then we can get going," he told her, and headed off towards the men change rooms. After a few minutes, Terence came outside, his hair wet from showering. "Let's go," he said.

Serena and Molly got up from their seats and together the trio walked inside the school.

After school, Serena said good-bye to Terence and headed towards Lita and Amy. She met Lita waiting for Amy outside of Amy's advanced computer course. Amy came out ten minutes later. "Remember it's not my fault if Raye gets mad at us for being late," Serena said.

Amy smiled. "Don't worry, Serena," Amy said, waving Serena's worries away.
"Let's get going," Lita said. So the three girls left the school, and boarded the bus that headed towards the Cherry Hill Temple.

They arrived ten minutes later. Serena, Amy, and Lita met Mina at the bottom of the steps.
"Hey, Mina," Serena said. "Late?"

Mina shook her head. "Meeting doesn't start till three thirty," the blonde replied.

Serena looked at her watch. Ten minutes to 3:30. They were early. Together the four girls walked up the stairs, and walked towards the fire room.

Raye was already sitting in front of the Great Fire by the time the four girls opened the door.

"Hey, you guys," Raye said. Serena, Mina, Lita and Amy took their positions behind Raye. Serena, Lita, and Amy quickly told Raye about Terence.

"It seems odd that he looks so much like Serena," Lita said.

"Almost as if they were twins," Amy said.

"Twins?" a familiar voice said. "Who is twins?" A black cat walked towards Serena. A white cat followed.

"There's this new guy at school," Serena said, then looked at Amy and Lita. "And everyone says that we look a bit alike."

"A bit!" Lita exclaimed. "Try separated at birth."

Amy giggled.

Luna or Artemis didn't laugh. Instead, the two cats looked at each other, then back towards the Sailor Scouts.

"Amy, what's his name?" Artemis asked.

"Terence... Terence Kopis," Amy said, having to think for a minute to remember his last name.

The two cats looked at each other again.

Serena was getting annoyed. So was Raye.

"What's up?" Serena asked. "Who is he?"

"Nobody," Luna said, quickly. A little too quickly. "Raye, ask about Terence to the Great Fire. See what comes out."

Raye turned towards the Great Fire and asked a question about Terence Kopis. Everyone was startled when a figured dressed as Prince Darien appeared in the flames. The only differences were that this person had blonde hair, blue eyes, and the lines in his suit were yellow.

"Is this Terence?" Artemis asked. Serena shook her head.

"Who is that?" she asked.

Luna tried hard to remember. After a few minutes the black cat replied, "Prince Terence, Sailor Sun, Prince of the Sun, Prince of the Moon, brother of the Moon Princess."

Serena smiled. "See that's not Terence. He isn't part of the Moon Kingdom," she said.

"How do we know?" Mina asked. "No one knew that we were part of the Moon Kingdom when we met at first, right?"

Everyone knew it was possible that Terence could well be that person who had appeared in the Great Fire. Everyone except Serena.

"Serena, Terence could be Sailor Sun," Luna said.

Serena stood up. "He's not!" she yelled. "I hate this! Everyone new I meet is always suspected of being part of the Moon Kingdom! Don't you think I can make friends without them being part of my past!" Angry, the Moon Princess stormed out of the temple, ran down the steps and started running home.

By the time Serena arrived home she was breathless because of her run. She was surprised to find a banquet of roses by her mailbox. She took a look in the card and read:

From somebody from your past and now present

Serena smiled. She knew that the flowers must be from Darien. She ran inside and phoned him right away. No one answered, so she left a message on his answering machine.
"Thanks for the flowers, Darien," Serena said into the phone. She hung up. She was about to sit down on the couch when she remember about training at six. "Forget it," Serena mumbled. "I wish all of this never happened." Serena switched on the TV.

Two hours later, at six-thirty, Serena heard a beeping sound. She looked around. Once she saw no one, she took out her communicator. "What is it?" she asked wondering why they were beeping her.

"Downtown," Venus said. "Hurry."

Serena nodded, and shut her communicator. She transformed into Sailor Moon and ran downtown.

By the time she reached the battle sight, she was breathless. The Scouts were already fighting. So was Tuxedo Mask. She was about to take out her Scepter and finish the battle. Sailor Moon opened her mouth to say the words but they never came out. Instead a scream burst out.

"Tuxedo Mask!" she cried. The monster had hit Tuxedo Mask with a blast of dark energy and he had not been fast enough with his cane to block it. The Scouts looked up as they heard another angry yell. They saw an orange animal jump down from a building. The animal was followed by a figure dressed almost like Prince Darien except the lines in this front suit were yellow. Everyone was shocked. They knew who it was.

Prince Terence landed neatly on his feet. The orange car hurled itself at the monster. The huge cat injured the monster, enough for it to bleed the gray blood of the Negamoon. The newcomer flashed a sword in the air. The sun glinted off of a crystal in it. He aimed it at the monster. Everyone watched the attack. The crystal started to glow brighter, then after a few seconds a yellow ray shot out of the sword. The monster stared at the yellow ray. He didn't have time to stop it. The monster cried out in pain as it hit him. Moments later, it was dust. The figure turned to face the Sailor Scouts.

Tuxedo Mask had regained consciousness and was okay. He stood up, with the help of Sailor Moon. The Scouts, and Tuxedo Mask faced the newcomer.

The figure nodded. "Sailor Scouts, nice to see you're protecting our Moon Princess," he said. "You too Prince Darien." He looked at Sailor Moon. "Good-bye for now Scouts."

"My prince!" the cat yelled.

The newcomer nodded to the animal, said good-bye to the Sailor Scouts and left, leaving the Sailor Scouts and Tuxedo Mask open-mouthed.

As soon as the two newcomers were out of sight, Sailor Moon looked at Luna.

"You were right," she sighed. "You were right." Sailor Moon kissed Tuxedo Mask on the cheek, then let go of his arm, and started running off towards her home.
