-Last Time on Fair…Not-
"Good. I want them dead soon." The voice bellowed at him.
"Of course." Trak said as he disappeared into the shadows.
"Why do I keep him around?" The voice asked.
"Because he is the messenger. We know he will fail but he will give our message to them." A deep women's voice told him as she laughed.
Chapter 5
Serena watched Darien walk out the arcade as she tried to figure out what just happened. Was there as chance that she was dreaming? Serena pinched herself hard and then winced in pain. 'Maybe Trak was right, but why? Why would HE like me?' Serena closed her eyes and then opened them when she heard Mina.
"SERENA! Get of here and tell us what that jerk wanted!" Mina called trying to keep her voice steady.
"Coming!" Serena yelled as she took one last glance as the fading Darien in the distance. She turned around and made a beeline to the booth her friends were waiting at eagerly.
"It's about time Meatball head! What just happened?" Raye asked Serena with a little bit of curiosity in her voice.
"Well…err…he asked…um…oh! Will you look at the time! Got to get home to do my homework! Bye!" Serena called to her friends as she ran out of the arcade in such a hurry that everyone around wanted to know where the dust came from.
Serena slowed down to a steady walk when she was far away from the arcade. 'Now is the perfect time to go to the park and relax.' Serena thought to herself as she got onto a bus.
………
"So…I guess he asked her." Lita finally broke the startled silence that had settled down over the surprised girls.
"It would seem so. What else would have made her want to leave so fast?" Ami agreed with Lita.
"I didn't know Meatball head could run that fast. She has been keeping a secret from us." Raye stated as she stared at the now settling dust.
"Well, phase two seemed to have worked. Now we go to phase three!" Mina cheered as everyone stared at her confused. "Oh that's right I forgot to tell you about phase three huh? Well, we make sure their date goes perfect!"
"Well duh!" Everyone yelled at her. Mina just sat there smiling at her friends and then quickly glanced at Andrew. 'Well, he did it. I guess it's my turn to keep up a promise to myself.' Mina thought to herself as she took a sip of her diet coke.
"I will be right back girls." Mina said as she stood up and walked over to Andrew.
"All right!" Lita called after her and then waited till she was out of hearing range. "Do you think she will FINALLY ask Andrew to the fair with her?" The girls just stared at Lita for a moment.
"I would say so." Raye smiled as she answered the question.
"It is the biggest possibility ever. I would have to agree with Raye." Ami agreed.
"Of course you would!" Lita smirked as she looked at the Mina who was talking at that moment. Andrew listened carefully as he made an ice cream cone for a little girl at the end of the counter.
"Look at him! He is trying so hard to focus on his job." Raye laughed as she saw Andrew look at Mina and at the little girl at once.
"He is going to say yes. We all know it." Ami said as she looked at them. Andrew was back with Mina talking now. She nodded in agreement then started talking again. Andrew smiled and then said a few words to her. She nodded and turned around to head back to her friends.
"So, Mina. Did he say yes?" Raye asked as she nudged her friend.
"Of course he did. Was there any doubt he wouldn't?" Mina replied as the group burst out laughing. There was never a doubt. They all new that when Mina wanted something she got it. That never changed.
………
Darien unlocked his apartment door to see a not on the floor. Darien knelt down and picked up the white sheet of paper that was folded three times over. Darien opened the not to see it was written really fast, and got right down to the point.
Darien,
Meet me at the park in five minutes,
So we can talk about how you feel
Towards Serena. I know you asked
Her but I think we still should talk about it.
Trak
Darien sighed as he turned around and started towards the park. 'I just can't get any peace with that boy around. He always wants to talk, and when he leaves I see something really weird.' Darien thought to himself as he sighed again.
"What floor?" One of the men on the elevator asked him as he stepped in.
"First floor, please." Darien told him as the doors closed.
………
"How are you today?" Trak's voice split through the silence of the park.
"What? Oh, hey Trak. What are you doing here?" Serena asked as she turned back to the lake.
"I'm waiting for a friend. He should be here soon." Trak said as he peered at the watch on his hand. Serena peered at the watch and noticed something odd about it. It had a leather black band and a gold rim around the glass. Under the glass where you are suppose to see the time was a little screen that showed Darien walking towards the park. The screen went blank and a red Japanese character that means death appeared. Serena gasped and looked up at Trak before jumping off the bench.
"You! You are the new evil force!" Serena hollered as he looked of at her. His eyes had turned red and his grew longer with ever passing second.
"Serena? What is that?" Darien asked as he approached them.
"That thing is Trak!" Serena called back to him from her spot. Trak looked at each of them as an evil smile crossed its lips. It took off it's gloves to reveal two silver hands that's nails where the sharpest thing ever. It reached out a hand towards Serena and it's nails started to grow. Its nails were aimed at Serena and were growing really fast; Serena jumped up just in time and missed the nails.
Serena landed on the nails stared running towards the head. When close enough Serena jumped of and ran towards Darien, who had been standing still and watching in horror. Serena quickly grabbed him and pulled him away right before the nails touched him. He shook his head and started to run with Serena.
"Who, no. What is it?" Darien called to her as the left the park still running.
"That would be really hard to explain at the moment. Right now we need to get to Raye's house, now!" Serena wheezed.
"Are you ok?" Darien asked her, as they got closer to Raye's house.
"Fine. I haven't ran this much in one day before that's all." Serena replied out of breath.
They ran up the steps, Serena still holding Darien's hand and looking around for the girls. 'Where are they? Oh, they better be here, or else Darien and I are goners!' Serena told herself as she heard some laughter from around back.
"RAYE! LITA! AMI! MINA!" Serena yelled as she dragged Darien around the back.
