Konichiwa minna-chan, I have returned from a rather long absence. I'm sorry it has taken me so long, but things have been steadily changing in my life to keep me rather busy. As it stands I have also been revising all of my stories so that they are more up to my standards of writing now. I do hope you enjoy the work I put into re-writing these stories as I do them for you. And, now on to the legal stuff, I do not and never have owned Sailor Moon as much as I would. I do however own some characters that will be mentioned at various points throughout the story. I do not write stories with the intent of sex. I can be reached for comments and flames at as always please enjoy the stories and continue to live another day
And real quick a couple of shout outs.

Princess Consuela Banana: As you can see I'm still going, so yes there is more. I'm not sure how much more but there will be more.

Nanami Sakura: I'm glad you liked it, and it did bother me as well that's why I gave her a few childhood enemies. However while it is a dark way to open up the story, it also helped to give feeling to the song that I chose to include in this story.

Klo-chan: haha I hope your still around reading, btw update winter love! It's just so cute!

Rockfreak: Enjoy here is the next part.

Meg-of-the-moon: I'm glad you like the way this is going. And update babysitter romance soon I'm loving it!

TropicalRemix: because I love italics, they look so… graceful

Moon-Daisuke: thanks for the help. Microsoft word is a bitch and I can't spell.

And last but not least.

To whoever ME (anonyms) is: There is nothing vain about looking at ones appearance in the mirror and liking what one sees. Is she always supposed to think she is ugly? Or is she not supposed to appreciate what she looks like? If you're going to leave comments like that, cant you be brave enough to post your email address or sign in and leave a signed review if you have an account at That was very cowardly of you.

With that said and done, on to the story!

A Dream Come True
Chapter 3: Decisions
By: Serenity Darkness

I woke up early the next morning, which was still not something normal for me. I sat in my bed replaying the scenes from last night in my mind, the competition, Darien proposing to me, the dinner, the offer, and last, the walk along the beach… everything. I still could not believe that none of this had been a dream. I was giddy and very happy this morning, and it was the sound of my phone that broke me out of my happy thoughts. That was strange because no one called me this early in the morning; then again I'm usually still asleep to. "Hello?" I said as I answered the phone "Hey Sere!" I heard the happy voice of Mina on the other end of my phone. "What's up?" I asked her as I sat up "Sere have you seen the news yet?" She asked me. "Nope why what's going on?" I responded as I grabbed my remote and turned on the TV "Well the news was covering last nights competition… and you're on right now!" she said. And so I was, there on the screen was a picture of me with my eyes closed and my mouth open while I was singing. I was so shocked almost dropped the phone "Oh my god Mina! I cant believe this!" I yelled excitedly.

I was so excited; things were definitely getting better for me already. Here I was, on TV. "Would you look at that? Such an exiting performance was given last night at Ray High school last night." The newscaster said as I sat there on the phone with Mina "My god Sere, you look amazing!" She said, even though she was there last night. This was the first time I got to see my own performance. "Did I really look like that?" I asked. "Yes you did." Mina said. I squealed. "This little gem on stage is the winner of the talent show. Serena Mystic is a 17 year old senior." The anchorwoman said as I bounced. "Serena! What's all the noise?" Dad said as he opened the door to my room "Daddy! I'm on TV!" I said happily and he laughed "Well I'll be. Well alright, but calm the decibels, others are still trying to sleep" He said and I giggled, "Hey Mina, lets go to the mall!" I said as I giggled "Alright. What time?" She asked me and I giggled, "Say about noon, I need to start shopping for my prom dress." I said as we both giggled. "Oh that's right, prom is around the corner." Mina said. "Alright, we'll I'll call the others and we'll meet you at the dress shop at noon." Mina said as I smiled "Alright, see you then." I said as we both hung up the phone.

By this time it was around 10 am, and I was ready to get my day started. Everything as usual, started with a quick shower. It was indeed quick and I was out just in time to catch my phone ringing for the second time that morning. "Good morning!" I answered the phone. "Good morning Serena." I heard Darien's husky voice on the other end causing me to shiver. This was another routine of ours. He usually called to wake me up but this morning Mina beat him to it. I smiled and tossed myself on my bed smiling "Did you sleep well muffin?" I asked him. He chuckled a bit "As well as I could without you by my side." He said causing me to giggle. "Your so sweet Darien… anyway have you seen the news this morning?" I asked him "So that would explain why you're already up and chipper." He said and I laughed. "Yeah, Mina called me this morning about a few hours ago." I answered him as I lay on my bed smiling "We're going to go shopping for our dresses" I told him. I could hear a sigh from him while I giggled, "I should let you get ready then." He said "Remember we're going out to dinner tonight at 8pm." He said as I got up and started to brush my hair out. "I remember. I'll be home before then." I told him as I put down the brush. "Alright see you then. Love you." He said and I smiled. "Love you to. Bye" I said softly as we both hung up the phone.

Once I finished brushing out my hair I went ahead and put it back up in it's two meat balls with blond streamers coming down reaching mid knee, so that they were mostly out of the way. Most people wondered how I could deal with having such long hair. I don't know how I did it, but I just did. I reached into my drawers and picked up my pants and a rather nice t-shirt. I took off my towel and slipped into my clothes. I grabbed my purse and my cell phones from my nightstand were it had been charging. I slipped that into my pocket and smiled "Hey dad I'm going out!" I called as I grabbed the car keys "Make sure your home before 6 with the car!" he replied. "I will!" I called out as I hopped in the car and drove off.

I made it to the mall by noon; the other girls were already standing there waiting on me. "Before you even think about it Rei, it's just now noon." I said sticking my tongue out at my second best friend. Rei just laughed and smiled as we all walked into the mall. "So were are we going first?" Ami asked and I smiled. "The boutique." I said as I grabbed her hand and we all laughed walking towards the boutique. "So Serena we saw the news this morning. How many calls have you gotten for your performance last night? Lita asked as we walked towards the boutique. "Well I haven't gotten any phone calls about it, yet, but I did get an offer last night." I said as I had let go of Ami's arm and we all just continued walking. "Oh really? From who?" Rei asked "Starlight's Recording." I replied as we continued walking. "WHAT!" Mina yelled out "You got an offer from Starlight's Recording" She said and I nodded. "Oh my god Serena are you nuts, everyone wants a contract with them. They only go after the best!" Mina continued as we all just stopped. "I don't know though… I mean wouldn't a career in music keep me from all of you? And Darien?" I asked Mina. "Maybe, unless you can get things the way you want them." Mina said as we entered the boutique.

As soon as we entered the boutique we all stopped our conversations. There we were in the middle of a store, with more dresses then we could ever think about trying on in our life. Big poofy dresses, and slim dresses, "Well lets get going girls," I said as I went and looked at a few dresses. Ami and Lita joined me looking at the more ball gown type dresses, while Rei and Mina both looked at more of the streamline body fitting dresses. We had a grand time trying on dresses, but eventually we each found one that fit us. Rei found a beautiful fire red ruffled dress more to her personality, Lita, a simple empire waist gown, while Ami found a blue ball gown and Lita a green one, me I found a pink one. We were going to be beautiful at the prom… and I was running for queen. However the dress I wanted I was a bit depressed when I saw the price tag. "What's wrong Serena?" I heard Mina ask. "I cant afford this dress." I said softly and put the dress down. "No sweat we'll cover it for you, right girls?" She said and the others nodded. "Guys your great." I said as I hugged them.

Just then my cell phone rang. "Hello this is Serena." I said into my phone. "Ah Miss Mystic, I was hoping you would answer. This is Seyia, we spoke last night." I heard on the other side of my phone. I froze a bit as he spoke ""Ah yes, what can I help you with?" I asked as I walked away from the girls leaving them my part of the money for my dress. "Well I was hoping you've had a chance to think about what we talked about last night." He said flat out as I sighed and took a seat on a bench outside the boutique. "I will take the contract under a few conditions." I said to him. "Alright, would you like to meet and sign the contract say; over lunch?" he asked me and I thought about it and looked over my shoulder at the girls who were coming out of the boutique. "Only if I can bring my friends." I said. I heard a bit of silence on the other end for a moment before I got an answer "That's fine with us." He said. "Meet us outside of the restaurant you met me at last night." He said my eyes widened a bit "We aren't currently dressed for that kind of place." I said; as I looked at the girls, "We'll give you two hours for you all to change." He said. "Alright then. We'll see you in two hours." I said and hung up.

I saw the girls coming out of the boutique. "Serena what was that about?" Ami asked blinking. "We've got two hours guys. I've got a meeting, and your coming with me… but first we need to change." I said blinking. "A meeting?" Rei said. "Change?" Ami asked. I nodded "Yeah, we're going to an upscale restaurant." I said. I just wasn't going to tell them which one. "I'm driving." I said as I lead them all to the van. We all went back to my house. We all had sleepovers often enough, so we all had something there. After our Jr. Prom we had a sleepover so we still had our dresses from then. It would be a fit but I think I could still fit into mine. "Alright girls are we ready?" I asked as I looked at everyone. They all nodded and we hopped back into the van and I drove back to where Darien and I had dinner last night. The girls were stunned "What! How are we even going to get in there! We're not on the guest list." Mina said as she started fidgeting with one of the ties from her choker. "Yes we are." I said as we got out and I handed the keys to the valet.

I led the girls inside. We were all dressed as formal as we could, me without wearing the black dress. This time I was wearing a long white dress, fit to my form, with god and white circles over my chest, with pearls lining it. Mina, Lita, Ami, and Rei, were all wearing empire waist gowns, they were similar but different, color wise as well as cut. Rei's was red and very form fitting, with white stripes down the front, cu with a sweetheart neckline. Ami's was also form fitting, and crystal blue. With white stripes down the side, her dress also had a sweetheart neckline. Lita's dress was rather different. Lita's skirts were just about sheer, with a slit right up the center, and dark green, but not sheer enough to where everything under them could be seen. Her dress to had a sweetheart neckline, but hers delved lower than the others. Then there was Mina, and her sky yellow dress. She had a u cut neckline that was very modest. Under her bust was a yellow sash that held everything in place just about. We all had floor length gowns. I lead us up to the reservations counter. "Do you have a reservation ma'am?" He asked me and I shook my head "I'm here to meat with Starlight's Recording. Can you let them know Miss Mystic and her friends are here?" I asked him and he nodded. I walked back to the girls who looked very nervous about being here, all except Ami, that is, with her mother being a doctor she was quite comfortable, and sat down and made sure she at least looked presentable, which we all did.

It wasn't long before a waiter came to lead the girl and me to a secluded table. "Ah, so glad you could make it Miss Mystic." I heard Seyia say as he stood up from the middle, "Thank you Mr. Kou." I said as we shook hands "May I introduce to you my friends. From left to right we have Mina Anio, Lita Kino, Ami Mizuno, and Rei Hino." I said introducing them each by name and they each nodded politely. "It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Seyia Kou, and these are my brothers Yaten, and Taiki, please, have a seat." Seyia said and we all sat down at the round table. "Drinks are on us." Yaten said, Yaten was a bit short and with white hair kept back in a ponytail. "Thank you" I said as I ordered a glass of sprite. The others turned down anything to drink, and the guys ordered wine. "So what are these conditions of yours that you wish to discuss?" Seyia asked me as I looked up. "Well first off, I want to finish school. The year is almost over, and I need to be here to finish it. Secondly I don't want to be gone so long on tour or otherwise, that I will be apart from my friends, and Darien." I told them and he nodded "I see… " Taiki said, "Well then I guess we have a deal. We're willing to start your pay now and work on your first album after school is over. That gives us 3 months to get a complete album ready for you to sell." Seyia said. Mina blinked, I saw her but I didn't say anything to them, they were all my witnesses to this. "Then we have a deal." I said. Yaten smiled and produced the paperwork pointing to where I needed to sign. I signed the contract and a second copy for myself, with everyone's signatures on it.

After I signed the contract, the girls and I thanked them for their hospitality and they promised to keep in contact with me in the coming months so that we could start planning for things. The first thing we would do would be photo shoots and such for publicity, as if I didn't have enough already. I was going to be a star.
