"Mommy....where are you?" Serena, at five years old, is running down a street. All around her is fire, bodies and fear. She turns a corner and sees......"MOMMY!! NO!!"

Serena sat up for the tenth time. She shivered and looked around the room hopeful that she was home. After seeing the black crystal walls, Serena brought her knees to her chest.

"Where are they?" Serena whispered.

Going over the dream in her mind, Serena tried to figure our what it was. 'It is familiar....like it happened.' Serena tried to stay awake, knowing that the dark crystal powers were trying to lure her into sleep so that it could work it's magic. Slowly, she fell asleep and the dream started all over again. A hooded figure teaching her and other children magic, the negaverse generals attacking and Outer Moon's first awakening. A woman and a man killed in front of her. A lonely girl running and a solitary sailor fighting alone......Serena screeched and sat up.

"What does this stupid dream mean?!"

Serena sobbed as she thought of what was going on and of what might come. A person watched in the shadows. The pain and anguish that Serena was feeling was also being felt by the person. A single tear fell from her eye.

Meanwhile, the scouts appeared outside of the dark moon palace.

"Ok, Where is she?" asked Venus.

Mercury looked up from her computer and pointed.

"See that tall, pulsating with high levels of dark energy, tower?"

The scouts looked and Uranus glanced at Mercury.

"Don't tell me....", she started.

"She's there. I think they learned from last time and has made sure to add extra security this time." Mercury said.

Uranus muttered under her breath and started to walk toward it. The scout followed in silence. Each of them wanting to help Serena and each of them feeling guilty for not being there. Mercury was concentrating on her computer and visor, to find Serena, to keep herself from crying. Mars was preparing scrolls in case they ran into monsters. Jupiter was plotting how to hurt those who took Serena. Venus was keeping charge of the inner scouts, making sure they worked with the outers and each other. Neptune was aiding Mercury by scanning and trying to locate Serena down to an exact point by her mirror. Uranus was swearing to herself and wishing that she had treated Serena different. (I feel sorry for the person who took Serena and if they harm her....wait...I feel sorry? Yeah right.) Pluto was worrying about how this would effect the time line. (She always does....that's why Ana does stuff.) Saturn was really quiet and calm. (Uh oh....she's mad.) Mini-Moon was walking next to Saturn and she had been crying the most.

"Is it me or is there a lack of security?" Mars said breaking the silence.

Mercury laughed, "I sort of sent a energy blast and they are looking for us on the other side."

Back with Serena......Hades walked back into the room. Serena was laying and was asleep. Her crescent moon was glowing slightly showing signs that she was still fighting. He walked over.

"Now for the final phase.....princess." He said putting his hand on her forehead. Pouring energy into her, he willed her to turn to the dark moon's side. Serena felt her grip on her body slip away. (Like Hotaru and Mistress 9)

'No!....Sto..p......I...t....' She screamed mentally.

When he stopped, a black up-side down crescent moon was on her forehead. She opened her eyes. Sitting up a small evil laugh escaped her lips.

Back with the scouts....Saturn gasped. The group looked at her.

"What's wrong?" Jupiter asked noting Saturn's terror stricken face.

Before they could answer, a evil female laugh came to their ears. They all shuddered from the pure hatred and evilness of the laugh. Finally Saturn spoke.

"The darkness is upon us....the princess is gone."

Hades walked into the throne room. "My prince, may I present the Princess Serenity." Hades said stepping to the side. Diamond (I don't know why but he is cool) looked up. There stood Serena in a black spaghetti strap dress, with a slit up to the knee on one side. On a chain was a place to put the silver crystal. Her eyes were cold (like Black lady but only blue) but they still had that certain innocent look. She had a small evil smile. She had black crystal earrings and what proved to Diamond (in his mind) that Serena was his was the black crescent moon.

"My lord, I am ready to do as you bid." Serena said curtsying.

Diamond smiled, "Just wait, you'll have plenty to do when 'your former guardians' the sailor scouts get here."

Serena smiled, "They don't stand a chance."

The scouts walked along a hallway. Neptune looked over at Saturn. She was more pale then normal and what she said came back to Neptune.

"The darkness is upon us....the princess is gone."

She shuddered and walked into Uranus. Uranus had stopped when she saw Ana laying on the ground. They ran over and Uranus picked her head up. A moan came from Ana before she opened her eyes.

"What? Where am I? What's going on?" She stood up and looked around then at each of the scout. She stopped at Saturn. 'Serenity...'

Pluto put a hand on Ana's shoulder. "Do you remember what happened?"

Ana looked down. "I was walking and I felt a sharp pain....I heard a cry from someone...then I woke up here." Ana looked at herself and realized she wasn't transformed and did. Saturn took Outer Moon aside and whispered.

"It was Serena you heard right?" At Outer Moon's nod she continued. "I felt her cry out. The others didn't, It felt like what happened to me."

The group continued on and Outer Moon went into her thoughts of what happened the last few weeks.

'I need more information...I know that hooded figure is familiar but....If I remember him, he will pay for killing those people. Wait...Where did these thoughts come from? Serena..we are connected....I forgot.'

She closed her eyes as she walked. 'I'll get my revenge.'

In the throne room, Serena opened her eyes.

"Outer Moon is coming, my lord, the sailors are too but Prince Endymion is not with them."

"How do you know this?" Diamond asked.

Serena glanced away. 'Don't hurt them....' Serena flinched. "O..Outer Moon and I are connected to each other."

"Are you sure that the Prince isn't there?" he asked. Serena nodded. Diamond frowned, 'Then where is he?' Looking at Serena, he noted that she seemed to be hesitant to serve him.

"I want you to do something now."

Serena turned. "My lord?"

"Go distroy the sailors but, bring Outer Moon and Small Lady."

'No! Don't, Please!' Serena looked Diamond full in the face. "As you wish, my lord."

She turned and vanished.

"Hades!" Diamond yelled.

Hades appeared bowing. "My prince, you called?"

"Where is that pathetic Prince? I know that he'd come for her." Diamond said calmly.

Hades frowned, "Not sure....but we have heightened the dark energy and I gave an energy boost to Serenity."

Diamond frowned, "Send your minions to find him and bring him here. I want to see his face when he sees his princess in MY arms."

The scouts jumped when the dark energy levels jumped.

"What? Do they know we're here?" Neptune asked.

"You Sailors never learn."

They turned and saw Serena.

"S...Serena? What happened?" Mercury asked.

Serena smirked, "I'm no longer Serena." She glowed with dark power. "I am the dark princess, I control the dark crystal and all of the evils it brings. I suggest you prepare your selves for your doom."

Serena laughed and all the scouts remembered Saturn's words.

"The darkness is upon us....the princess is gone."

Saturn then added to it.

"The Moon is shadowed and only the love of a prince and the strength of her full soul can help us all."

Pluto looked at the princess that she had sworn to protect, so cold and evil.

"May Selene save us all."

Ok, I typed it different. My friends suggested that I do it this way. I have a new E-mail. It is anastasiacrystal@yahoo.com . I need to know which is easier to read and also how my story is going. I'm also starting school so I won't be able to get chapters out any time soon. Well, thanks to everyone who has reviewed and I hope I will get more. Ja ne
