Chapter 15

DC: I don't own Sailor Moon

Rini felt horrible. She was standing in front of apartment number five. It was Sheena's apartment, because she needed a place to stay. She knocked on it, and waited. She heard footsteps, and an eye peer through. Then there were some clicks, and the door swung open.

"Rini! What are you doing here?" Sheen asked.

"I-I got into an argument with my moth—cousin." Rini cried. Sheena let her in, and they sat on the couch.

"What happened?" Sheena asked. Rini told her the story, and started to cry.

"I shouldn't have yelled at her. I mean it was for my own good and everything…" Rini said. She wiped her eyes, and looked up.

"Maybe you should give her some space for a bit. You can stay the night here, and we'll go and get your things for school tomorrow." Sheena suggested. Rini nodded.

"I guess…Are you sure it's okay?" She asked.

"Of course! Don't sweat it!" Sheena replied.

Rini told herself she'd call Serena before she went to bed. But for now, she wanted to give herself, and Serena, some space. She didn't need to think about what she said. She already knew she was so sorry.

Serena stopped her crying, and got up. She went to her calendar, and flipped through it.

"In a month the baby is due… on July first…well that's weird. I thought Rini was born on my birthday…" Serena closed her calendar, and thought back to when the outer scouts were there the first time.

What if it isn't Rini?

"What if it isn't Rini? Why am I thinking of this now, I have more important things to think about…" Serena sighed. "I wish someone was here with me…"

As soon as the words came out off her mouth, there was a knock on the door. She went to it, and opened it. There was Lita, Mina, and Raye.

"Hey!" Mina said. She gave Serena a hug, and the two behind her smiled.

"Why are you three here?" Serena asked, after Mina broke the hug.

"We thought we could visit. I mean we have been ignoring you for the past several months." Lita said.

"And I never really apologized either, Serena." Raye said.

"Well come in. It seems like I have even more news to tell you." Serena said. She let them in, and they sat down.

After several attempts from the two men, Darien and Helios gave up on trying to escape the dimension of darkness. Ever since they were left here, someone would give them something to eat, and they wouldn't eat. Finally, the Flute Player came to see what was up.

"What? Still no eating?" She asked. "And I thought you were smarter then that, Prince." She added. Darien, who could sit up by now, glared at her.

"What do you want with us?" Darien asked.

"I don't want you interfering with my plans." She said.

"How do you know we'll even try?" Helios asked. The Flute Player glared down to him.

"Don't think I'm stupid. I've studied all your past enemies. I know what could happen." She said.

"What do you mean, you've studied our enemies?" Darien asked. The Flute Player sat down, started to hover in the air, and crossed her legs.

"Well, Queen Beryl was stopped by you and Serenity. You and Serenity stopped the Doom Tree. Prince Diamond was stopped by Little Moon, and Serenity." She turned from Darien, and turned to Helios. "Don't forget the time Little Moon, and Serenity almost died, when Queen Nehelenia threw her off her base." She then crossed her arms.

"There was also Sailor Galaxy, and she was reborn by Serenity, and everyone. Princess Snow Kaguya was stopped by Serenity. You have helped Serenity in many ways. And that's why I will not have some miracle save by the either of you. In fact Hotaru is now Mistress 9. Who used to be controlled by Pharaoh 90, and now won't be able to save Serenity like she did. The Sailor Scouts won't be enough to help her through this one.I have collected enough energy aroundTokyo.And Little Moon won't be able to either, if my plan works out tonight. That reminds me. I better go before it's too late!" The Flute Player gave them a smug look, and flew off into the darkness.

Helios hit the ground, and Darien sighed.

"How are we going to get out of this one?" Helios asked. Darien collapsed onto his bed.

"I'm not sure. It'll take a miracle I guess."

Rini got her bed ready for the night, while Sheena was in the bathroom. She was just brushing out her hair, when there popped the spirit, a.k.a the Flute Player.

"What do you want? Can't you see I have guest?" Sheena asked. She was a little irritated.

"I have come for your guest. And you can't stop me!" The spirit cried, and suddenly jumped into her body. Sheena dropped the hairbrush, and blacked out. She collapsed on the floor, and lay there for a moment.

"Sheena are you okay?" Rini called from the door.

"Oh it's nothing, I just dropped my brush."

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."

The Flute Player stepped out of the bathroom door, with her flute in her hand. She put it to her lips, but Rini started to roll over. The Flute Player changed her appearance, quickly, making her stumble and hit something. Rini opened her eyes.

"Oww…" Sheena cried. She held up her finger, and saw she had a cut on it.

"Are you okay? I'm sorry. I roll a lot!" Rini cried. She got into her pants (remember she is in a nightgown), and pulled out her favorite handkerchief. Sheena watched as she tore the pink cloth, and wrap it around her fingers.

"I'm sure you don't want to be looking for bandages in the dark." Rini said, as she tied it tight.

"Th-Thank you!" Sheena said. Rini smiled, and climbed into her bed. She closed her eyes, and slowly went back to sleep. Sheena picked herself up again, and changed back. She formed her flute, and again put it on her lips.

'Right where I want you.' She thought, as she played that eerie soft tune.

Hey I updated! (as if I didn't know about it)

Preview:

Darien started to bang on the window, trying to get Rini's attention, but it didn't seem to work. Helios was frozen with fear. If Rini went to the dark side, what hope didthey have on helping anyone?

They watched as Mistress 9 held out her hand. Rini looked up, and to their dismay, she grabbed it. It went dark, and silent.

Okay ppl! I'm about 75 done with this story! Isn't that sad? I still have at least six or seven chapters to go...how time flies when you're typing fanfiction... And I hate the scene changer, thingies (Those lines...) I can't seemed to get my others to work. Well I hoped you liked this chapter, and I'm still trying to make my chapters longer!

I'll update soon, if I can get some reviews!

Love, Lala Rue!
