Chapter 14

DC: I don't know own Sailor Moon.

Serena woke up, and saw Rini next to her. She smiled, and lightly touched her face. She carefully got up, and wondered. Was it all a dream?

'Of course not. Darien was taken away…'

Tears started to well up in her eyes, but she pushed them back. She had to be strong. She needed to find out what was going on, and she needed to find out how she could save Rini. Everyone believes she's the sacrifice. And now she believes it too.

'I've got to find a way to save everyone.' Serena thought.

She got up, and looked toward where she kept that one note. The note that held those weird sentences. She wondered if she should leave it where Rini was, but pushed it past her, and started down the steps. The other scouts left Serena, and the house was empty.

She sighed. "It's too quiet."

There was some scratching at the door though. She opened it to find Diana, and Luna. Luna's eyes grew wide, and Diana smiled.

"Told you mommy! She is pregnant!" She exclaimed.

Luna continued to stare up, and Serena stared back. Finally Serena let go of the doorknob, and smiled.

"Welcome home, Luna."

Luna smiled, and could feel the tears coming up through her eyes.

"I'm so sorry, Serena." Luna cried out. She and Diana came in. Serena closed the door, and Luna stopped.

"It doesn't feel real." Luna said aloud. "I can't believe all the things I've heard."

"Do you want the whole story?" Serena asked. She had already sat down in her living room. Luna hopped up to the couch, but Diana went upstairs to see Rini.

"Well, It was the day I was going to tell everyone the good news about myself. But you guys were acting weird, and by the time I was ready, Raye yelled at me. And then I went home. I told Darien, and the other scouts, and they said don't worry. We'll find out why you guys kicked me out.

"The next day, Raye took your things, that we still have to get back, and Rini came. She told me and Darien that, since you guys turned on us, it happened on the moon all the sudden…"

"You mean, on the moon we turned on you?" Luna asked. Serena nodded.

"You turned on Neo-Queen Serenity, and ratted her out to this dark evil lady. And that's when monster started to attack. If you haven't noticed, Tokyo Park has been drained of its natural life force. I found a note, though. It gave me a clue to what could happen in the future…I'll show you later.

"Since then, we've been fighting monsters. I've been having weird dreams. We think Rini is going to be a sacrifice, and-"

"Wait, Rini's going to be a sacrifice?" Luna asked. Serena nodded sadly.

"It goes with that note I found."

"Where's Darien now?" Luna asked. Serena turned her head. Tears were springing into her eyes.

"For all I know he could be dead." She said.

"What?" Luna asked. Serena turned back to her. Tears now streamed her face, but she wiped them away.

"That lady…sh-she took him away…and Hotaru…she's Mistress 9…and anything could happen to Rini…" She blurted out. Luna put her head down. She didn't know what to say.

"It's just too much for me!" Serena cried out. She set her head in her hands, and cried.

"Oh, Serena…" Luna cried. "We'll think of something…"

-

Rini woke up, and felt much better, but Serena wasn't next to her anymore. She sighed, and felt her own forehead. It was much cooler, and it didn't hurt inside anymore. Diana peeked her head in, and Rini smiled.

"Hey, did you get Luna and Artemis back?"

"Yeah. Momma is downstairs, and Artemis is at Mina's for the moment. How are you feeling?" She asked.

"Better." Rini replied. She stood up, and got her balance. She wanted to get dressed, and go downstairs. So she went to her room, got something and was passing Serena's door, when something caught her eye. Diana went back downstairs, as Rini went to Serena's dresser drawer. Inside was a white piece of paper.

"What's this?" Curiosity got the better of her, and she opened it, and read the inside.

When terror arises, and all seems lost, the white angel will appear. She shall rise above, and bring light apon the dark angel. To make it, and all its darkness, disappear. Then she will vanish as the light fades, and her wings burn to the ground…She is the Sacrifice…

'What is this? I've never seen this before!' Rini thought. 'Does it have to do with something? The battle? Why didn't anyone show me this?'

She took it with her downstairs. Serena was at the door, letting Luna out. Rini waited, and when she turned around, Rini held up the note. Serena's expression sunk even more.

"What is this?" Rini asked. She was a little angry.

"It-It's nothing!" Serena said, waving her hand nervously.

"I know it must be something! Even my mom on the moon waves her hand like that, when's she's lying or something!" Rini yelled. "Tell me!"

Serena bit her lip. She didn't want to tell Rini the truth. But will she catch her again?

"It has to do with the…battle…" Serena said, thinking carefully about her choice of words.

"Why didn't I see this?" Rini asked. She still was angry.

"Because…it's for your safety!" Serena said.

"If it's for my safety, why can't I be trusted to know?" Rini yelled. She didn't get why no one could tell her the truth around here. "I bet your trying to keep me away from the battle, huh?" She added angrily.

"No! It-It…I can't tell you! Rini just believe me!" Serena cried. Rini sighed, angrily, and went toward the door. Before leaving, she turned to her.

"If I'm supposed to be like you, maybe I'm not that trusting either."

Rini grabbed her shoes, and left. Sliming the door behind her. Serena's eyes sprung up tears again, and she sunk to the floor. She sat there, and cried. She cried out of worry, tiredness, and sadness. And somewhere deep inside, she felt angry. Angry that this Flute Player has made her life so hard.

-

Helios woke up finally, and looked through his bars. Across from him, was a bed. In this bed was Darien, who, at the moment, could not move.

"Endymion?" Helios called out in surprise.

"It's Darien. I'm not the King yet…" Darien called back. He sounded very tiered.

"What's going on? I was just sitting in Elysion, when something dark surrounded me.

"Your in another dimension. This Flute Player has taken you here." Darien said. Helios sat up. He was confused, and had a headache. The thing that was bothering him was the people of Earth. No one, right now, is having any dreams, or nightmares.

"I was going to send her a message…" Helios mumbled. Darien was about to ask, who it was, but Mistress 9 came into the room.

"Well, it seems that you two are awake. We have gotten almost to the next stage. And in this stage, two friends will be reunited." Mistress 9 announced. She smiled evilly, and turned to Helios.

"I know you know her. She is one of the closest thing to you," she then turned to Darien. "Oh, and you too. King Endymion. One of the closest people to you, although she will look different." She said.

Darien and Helios both knew who it was.

"You can't do that! I know Serena won't allow it!" Darien yelled.

"You can't take Rini away!" Helios cried, but Mistress 9 just laughed.

"Oh but I will! Little Miss Serenity is at home, crying, while Rini is coming towards our attack. She'll walk through the door of her friend, and walk into the trap of an enemy!" She then laughed, and disappeared into the darkness.

Helios became enraged. Darien tried to stand, but the pain came back, and he was forced to lie down.

"Is there no way out?" Helios asked to no one in particular. He tried to force his way out, but something shocked him, and he was thrown back. He sat on the ground, in frustration, as Darien tried to steady his breathing on his lonely bed.

The both of them only hoped that Serena could pull through, and stop this. And maybe they'll be able to help along side of her.

Hi ppl! Like I said I'm going to be killed!

Preview:

Rini lay back down. She had called Serena, to find that only the machine would pick up. She had guessed that Serena went out somewhere, and that was okay. She needed space too.

She covered up, and had her back toward the door. "Goodnight, Sheena." Rini said, before closing her eyes, and going to sleep.

"Goodnight little moon. And don't plan on having any dreams tonight."

Yes ppl...you are going to kill...me...Don't worry! Rini will come back...sooner or later... Oh and Tiffany, I will try to make my later chapters longer...they should be because my last chapters are slowly creepung up...Thanks for the encouraging review!

I'll update soon! Okay?

Love, Lala Rue!
