Chapter One: Dark Room

Within a dark room Serena woke up with a gasp. It took her a few minutes to register where she was at and what had just happened. Her hands roamed over her abdomen where Endymion's sword had went through. She had wanted to cry at the pain she had experienced, but remembered why it HAD to happen.

"Forgive me, Love...forgive me everyone."

The door opened to the large room and the same strange man appeared smiling happily. Serena sat up and glared at him then sighed. She was passed being angry at him. He had only came to help. It wasn't his fault that his job litterally SUCKED ASS. The man stood by her bedside.

"Good dreams"
"What do you think"
"Cranky aren't we? Yeah well...I bet if I had my lover stab me in the guts, I would be a bit bitchy too."

Serena rolled her eyes and got up from the bed. She walked over to her dresser and started to brush her hair. The man turned around to watch her. He was about to break the silence, but Serena beat him to it. Unlike Serena's regular chipper voice, the sound that came out was mature and almost too serious.

"So is it done"
"The hard part, yes"
"Is Princess Serenity dead"
"Yes it seems so. Transforming into her right before Endymion killed her"
"What's next on the agenda"
"The ritual"
"Good. Everything is going as planned."

Flashback of a month ago

On the streets of Tokyo a tiny blonde was seen running at the speed of light mumbling.
"imgoingtobelate!imgoingtobelate!imgoingtobelate!"

Serena ran as fast as her long legs could carry her to reach the shrine in time. The increasing attacks of the enemy had mad Rei call a meeting today to discuss plans. Luna and Artemis had been out of town investigating a lead, which put Rei in charge of the meetings. Apparently earlier on that day Mrs. H didn't seem to generous to Serena, after her date cancled on her that night. Giving Serena no chance of getting away without detention for sleeping during class.

"Reisgoingtokillme!Reis goingtokillme!imlate!imlate!imlate!"

Serena ran up the shrine temple's large steps to reach Rei's room. As she reached the top, she stopped to take a breather. Serena noticed that Rei's door was slid slightly open and she heard the voices of the scouts and Darien. They had been whispering in a heated discusion. Serena tip toed near the door to hear what was going on.

"This has gone to far"
"Rei keep your voice down"
"No I won't be quiet any longer! I'm sick and tired of pretending everything is just fine"
"You know she's right Ami"
"I still don't want Serena to walk in and hear Rei yelling, Lita"
"So what? I don't care if she hears me! Serena needs to hear this. She needs to be put in her place. For the past few weeks her grades have slipped lower then even her. Her klutz attacks have gone BEYOND irritating. Last week her parents had to pay a good 50 bucks because she broke Andrew's plates at the Crown. She's late coming to battles and each time we nearly die!"

"She HAS been a bit more annoying than lately. I got fiften calls from her all in one day about a date we're having this weekend. She kept me on the phone mostly all night. Ami and I couldn't study for my test..which I failed! Ever since I just let the machine answer her calls."

Darien sided with Rei against Serena. They went on for a good ten minutes talking down Serena. Her heart hurt with each remark, tears stung her eyes but wouldn't fall. She clutched her uniform shirt and silently whimpered. All the time she stayed silent, each word being the truth. It was too much to handle, so she turned around and ran. Maybe if she had stayed a little bit longer then she would have heard the rest.

"SEE SHE IS EVER LATE FOR THE MEETING!"

Rei shouted as she noticed her clock. Mina pulled Rei back down for her standing position.

"She probably had detention. Miss H's boyfriend broke another date today. She was getting on to everyone for the littlest thing."

Ami sounded in and shook her head. Lita sighed and started at it.

"We should give Serena better than this. I mean I know we are all upset about her behavior, but she is our friend. Maybe if we helped her out more. It is tiring to be The Princess, Sailor Moon, and a normal girl at once."

"Maybe" A frustrated Rei said and filled up the tea cups.

"...but she better get her act straight..."

End of the Flash

Present time

In the same dark room, Serena was preparing herself for the ritual. She wore a dark black dress and her hair down. A servent knocked on the door and walked in.

"Miss? It's time."

Serena turned to him and nodded. She took one more look at herself in the mirror. After a moment of this she shook her head. Refusing to cry and feel sorry for herself. She chose this for herself and she wasn't backing down.

"...I'm so sorry my love...it is for the sake of good..."

Serena stood up stright and proper then walked out of her room. Knowing this would be the last time as anything she ever knew of herself. Serena would no longer exist. Sailor Moon wouldn't. Neither would Princess Serenity. Gone. All Gone.
