"Where is Serena?" Mina was nearly nose to nose with Haruka.
She just smiled and shrugged. "What gives you the idea that we know?"
"Darien said that you went to his house and told him Serena left!" Mina was growing very impatient.
Before Haruka could answer, Serena's voice was heard throughout the room. "Hello? Michiru, are you there? Setsuna, Haruka, Hotaru?" Before any of the four could answer, Amy had the mirror.
"Serena where are you? I tried to locate you, but I can't," Amy looked at Serena's figure in the mirror. Serena was wearing a dress similar to the one she wore when they first discovered her to be the moon princess. Behind her was a beautiful white room. That's when it all came together in Amy's head, "Your on the moon," she whispered, but everyone still heard.
"What?!" Mina went over and grabbed the mirror. "What are you doing on the moon?"
Serena flinched at th sound of Mina's angry voice. She quickly regained her composure. "I am here because I thought it was time I stopped acting like a child and filled the position my mother left for me."
Raye was taken aback. Not only was Serena being responsible, but her voice. It didn't sound as it normally did. It was empty of all emotion. Cold and unforgiving. The word popped in her head. She then realized the full extent of what Darien had done. A memory from her past life came to her.
Queen Serenity was denied the right to love who she wanted. Because of this, she never gave her love to anyone but her daughter. Because she buried herself in her duty and showed no feelings for others, she could not use the Imperial Crystal to it's full potential in the battle against Queen Baryel. That lead to the downfall of the Moon Kingdom...and the death of the Queen.
'The downfall of the Moon Kingdom and the death of the Queen....' the thought repeated itself in Raye's head before she understood it. She paled at the thought. Still facing the hand mirror in Mina's hand she spoke. Her question directed toward Haruka, "You know what happened last time don't you?"
Haruka looked at Raye. "I do know. That is why I warned him. I did not tell him though. It is not my place or yours to tell him. He must find out on his own."
"What do you mean 'last time'" Lita looked at all of the Outer Senshi. Each had a looked of guilt...except Hotaru.
"It was the first time I was awakened. I was awakened by direct order of Queen Serenity," she saw the shocked looks on all their faces. "She told me she wanted all of you reborn when the Negaverse was defeated. She also requested that Darien and Serena not meet."
"Why?" Amy looked at the four scouts sitting on the couch. She knew they had the correct answer. But she didn't know if it was one she wanted to hear.
"She knew that if they met, they would fall in love. And she knew that Serena's heart would break the instant Prince Endymiontook that love away. As you all already know, the Crystal responds to Neo Queen Serenity's emotions..." Hotaru was interrupted when Mina asked the question she was expecting.
"You mean she's awakened into Neo Queen Serenity?"
"Yes. As I was saying before," she waited for any other questions, then continued, "her heart is in turmoil. Her emotions are hidden. She cannot use the Crystal's power to it's full extent The same is happening to her as her mother. Queen Serenity died when her love was taken away. She became as Serena is and uncaring."
"You must not tell the Prince of Serena's awakening. Or of her mother's past. If you do, the chaos that has already befallen us will not be defeated," Setsuna saw their confused looks and explained. "I felt a shift in the space and time continuum the today. I thought it was because Neo Queen Serenity has awakened. Then when I heard what Haruka said to Darien, I realized that there was a new enemy. An enemy that will not be so easily defeated."
"What did Haruka say?" Michiru looked over to where Haruka was sitting...with her eyes closed.
"I said that if he didn't make up with Serena, we're all screwed," Haruka opened them to find the scouts glaring daggers at her.
Setsuna shook her head as if trying to get rid of a headache. "Anyways. The new enemy has the upper hand now that Serena is on the moon and unable to use the Crystal."
"Do you get it. We cannot do anything unless they make up. We are basically useless. We can't even tell the Prince anything." Michiru rubbed her temples. She had just admitted to herself that she couldn't do anything to protect the Princess.
"If you do, you'll only make matters worse," Setsuna stood and walked to the hallway. She lead everyone to a small room they held in the basement. It served as the Outer Senshi's very own control room. Once there they all took seats at a table next to a huge screen. As they sat down, the screen flickered and a picture of a young Queen Serenity appeared. They watched for what seemed like hours. Scenes of joy were soon replaced with scenes of sadness and despair. They watched as the once happy Princess turned to a serious Queen. When it was finally finished they looked at each other. All realizing that they couldn't do anything. As they left the house, the four scouts decided that it would be best to avoid Darien for the time being.
