Disclaimer: Guess what Sailor Moon doesn't belong to me, even though i wish it did.
'I don't want to do this.' I thought to myself as paced my bedroom. 'How do I get myself into these things. I should have just kept to myself. Bud did I? No. As soon as Darien told me he knew that I was Sailor Moon I told him all about my past. Now look at me; I'm starting to like him more and more everyday and I have told him about most of my past. Why was I so careless? Darien should never had seen my scar. Now I have to tell him about my mother and relive a part of my past that I never wanted to think about again.'
"Why am I ahhhh... what in the world." I exclaimed.
"Hello darling, how are you?" Queen Serenity asked me.
"You scared me." I told her. "I thought that you were only going to visit me in my dreams."
"I know, I know, but you need to know that your time to be free will come soon." My mother said.
"You keep saying that, but it hasn't happened yet." I replied.
"Listen to me darling, before the truth can come out you need to open your heart and let your secrets be uncealed." she tried to explain to me.
"Do you mean my secrets from this life or my secrets from life on the Moon Kingdom." I asked. "And, who am I supposed to tell? Darien? He's the one that I have been talking to about my past and he still doesn't know about what happened to me and my mother from this life. He also doesn't know that he is the Prince of Earth."
"The only thing that he knows is that he is Tuxedo Mask and that he is the protector of Sailor Moon. he has no idea about the love that was shared. So, would you please tell me what secrets are the ones that need to be revealed." I asked her in frustration.
"That is for you to decide for yourself, Serena." My mother answered. "I have to go now. Please be patient."
"All right, I love you." I told her.
"I love you to, dear. Bye for now." She said as she disappeared.
'Now, I'm more confused then I was before. I thought that my mother was supposed to help me understand what was going on.' I thought.
"Fuck, I'm going to be late meeting Darien." I said out loud as I ran downstairs to the front door.
"We have a meeting today. Did you forget?" Rei asked me as I opened the door.
"As a matter of fact I did." I answered her, not in the mood to argue.
"Well, here is a reminder; today at 7:00 we," Rei said motioning to the scouts standing behind her, "are supposed to have a meeting at your house. It is 7:00 now and we are here to have a scout meeting."
"Well, you guys can have the meeting if you want, but right now I have to leave." I replied. I have something to do right now, so I will see you guy's tomorrow and you can fill me in on what I missed. O.K."
"No, it's not O.K." Rei yelled at me. "I am sick of your irresponsibility. You're always late, you're lazy, and you don't seem to care about our scout meetings."
"You are supposed to be our leader and you don't seem to be taking it seriously." Rei said. "The scouts and I have been talking, if you don't start taking your role as leader of the scouts more seriously, then we will have Mina take your place as leader of the scouts."
"You can't be serious." I said. "I'm the leader, you can't replace me. I try as hard as you do, besides I have more power then all of you, without me you wont be able to defeat the youmas."
"We're not kicking you out, we're just not going to have you be our leader anymore." Mina said.
"If you don't want me to be the leader anymore I wont be." I replied. "in fact I wont be a part of the Sailor Scouts anymore. Now if you'll excuse me, I have some place to be right now." I told them as I pushed past them and started walking to Darien's place.
"Hi, I'm here." I said as Darien opened the door to his apartment.
"Hi," Darien Replied, "I wasn't sure that you were going to come tonight."
"I told you that I would." I said. "I figured that I owed you an explanation about what happened earlier."
"You don't have to tell me, if you don't want to." Darien said as we walked towards the couch and sat down.
"You deserve to know." I told him. "You have told me all about your past, I guess it is my turn to tell you about the rest of mine."
"If you're sure, then I will listen." Darien said. "If you don't mind, I would like it if you told me about the scar on your back first."
"That is the only part of my past the I haven't told you about yet." I answered. "So, I guess I'll tell you what happened." I said as I took a deep breath and began to tell Darien about what happened.
"I was eight years old and my mother and I were coming home from grocery shopping. As soon as we stepped through the front door, hands reached out and grabbed us; we were pulled into the living room while some slammed the door behind us. I didn't know why they were there, I only knew that I had to try and get rid of them."
"There were four guys, one was holding me, one was looking around the house for something, I'm not sure what. The other two were holding my mom and they were dragging her down the hall to one of the bedrooms. I knew that they were going to do something bad to her, so I did the first thing that popped into my head. I guess my mom was thinking the same thing because at the same time that I elbowed the guy that was holding me in the groin, my mother kicked one of the guys holding her in the groin and then punched the other guy in the nose."
"My mother grabbed one of the guys' gun and pointed it at them. I ran towards her and I guess I distracted her because she turned to look at me. When she turned one of the guys kicked her feet out from under her and she fell to the ground. The guy got on top of her and tried to get the gun from her. While they were struggling for the gun it went off and shot the guy that head been looking around the house.
After that, the guy that had been holding me ran towards my mother and his partner. before he reached them the gun was knocked out of my mothers hand and slid across the floor about five feet from me. The guy that was running towards them took out his gun and shot my mother in cold blood.
"Oh my God, Serena, why didn't you tell me this before." Darien interrupted.
"Hold on, O.K." I replied. "Let me finish." Darien nodded and I continued telling him about my mothers murder.
"As soon as I saw guy pull out his gun, I went for the one that had slid near me. I picked it up and pointed it at the man that had just killed my mother. The man who had shot her told me to put the gun down, as he started to walk towards me. I...I did not think, I just pulled the trigger, and he fell to the floor. I just stared in shock at what I had done. I couldn't believe that I had just shot someone.
I guess that I was in such shock, that I forgot about the fourth guy. I didn't notice that earlier he had gotten up. That was stupid of me because the next thing I knew I felt a horrible pain in my lower back. The fourth guy had snuck up behind me and stabbed me. he stuck the knife in my lower back and turned it, making the L shaped scar that I now have. I don't remember much after he stabbed me. All I remember is falling to the floor and seeing the man who stabbed me pick up the gun that I had been holding; after that I blacked out. I woke up and I was in the hospital with my father sitting in a chair next to my hospital bed."
