Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon or Evanescence and My Immortal

I'm probably going to get into trouble with these lyrics but i need them for this chapter so, oh well.

Mina walked quietly through the park at about 9 in the morning, thinking about what her, Raye, and Amy had done to Lita. Mina could tell that Lita had been against the decision to make Serena go in the first place. Mina concluded herself that she had had no room to talk. She was ditzier, clumsier, and more pathetic than Serena ever was.

The only thing different was that Serena had been the leader. With a sigh she sat down at the edge of the lake. 'Damn, I've really screwed up. Who do I trust? Raye, where it had been her idea to get rid of Serena, or Serena, who was the princess, her cousin, and once been closest person in her life. "Damn" she said out loud and threw a rock into the lake. She was staring out onto the lake when someone came over to sit beside her, "you seem down" a strangely familiar voice said.

Mina turned her head to see Malachite. He was staring at her with concerned eyes that held a hint of amusement. She caved. "I don't know who to trust who to accept it's so damn hard, my cousin or my friend, princess or scout." The tears fell, she didn't want them to but she was defenseless to stop them.

Malachite put a hand on her chin and lifted her head so she had to look at him. With his other hand he wiped away the tears, "It's a simple question. Who has helped you the most in the past few years?" Mina looked into Malachite's sterling silver eyes that held so much concern. She started to say Raye but then thought, Raye had yelled and forced her way to get her respect.

She hit, blackmailed, anything to get what she had wanted over the years. Serena had simply told them if that was what they wanted then she would give it to them. She had left with not one sour word to them. Her absence had made her realize how much she had depended on Serena.

How much she admired her and treasured her. Malachite saw the decision in her beautiful topaz eyes, and smiled when she said, "Serena" "there ya go. See all you had to do was think it through." "But how can I face Raye now? She will tear me apart!" Malachite gently ran his thumb down her cheek, "let me worry about that."

Elsewhere

Darien (haven't heard from him for awhile) walked slowly down some unknown street. 'Damn' he thought for the millionth time in the past two days. 'How do I get her to forgive me?' Malachite's voice echoed through his brain, "Consider it Darien, if you want her to forgive you, you are going to need more than an apology from someone else."

Darien sighed, how the hell was he supposed to do that? He didn't even know her and by God he was attracted to her but his heart belonged to Serenity. (He's an idiot) He finally looked at where he was at and realized he was in a meadow somewhere in the park. Someone was in the meadow singing,

I'm so tired of being here
suppressed by all of my childish fears
and if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave

Because your presence still lingers here
and it won't leave me alone
these wounds won't seem to heal
this pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

She was dancing smoothly with the wind and the scent of flowers dancing around her in perfect harmony. She didn't see him standing at the edge of the clearing, entranced.

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
and I've held your hand through all of these years
but you still have all of me

He watched, unable to move, when a memory came,

Memory

He was standing a clearing watching her. She was like a storybook princess, except she was a princess dancing in the moonlight. Scents of flowers and of night swirled around her in harmony.

She sang and birds came to listen and small animals sat at the edge of the clearing just to hear her. At that moment, no matter how much Endymion didn't want it, he lost his heart to the beautiful Princess Serenity.

End Memory

You used to captivate me
by your resonating light
but now I'm bound by the life you left behind
your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

That's when Darien recognized her for whom and what she was; she was Serena Tsukino and his love and soul mate, Princess Serenity.

These wounds won't seem to heal
this pain is just too real
there's just too much that time cannot erase

when you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
and I've held your hand through all of these years
but you still have all of me

Oh My God was his first eligible thought. He recognized her and there was no denying it. If looks and memory didn't tell it, facts did. Serena left the same time Sailor Moon did.

Serena got into a fight with the girls, whom also happened to be the Sailor Scouts. And Serena came back with the same badass attitude Sailor Moon did. And Darien loved Serena with the same intensity as Serenity. He moved towards her dancing form.

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
but though you're still with me
I've been alone all along…

Serena trailed off as she seen him enter the clearing, sun radiating off his black storm of hair, midnight blue eyes filled with understanding. She remembered,

Memory

Serenity stopped dancing when she seen him enter the clearing, a smile playing on his full mouth. He came up to her and took her hands into his and twirled her, starting the very dance she had just stopped dancing to.

She couldn't help but go with the flow of the dance. She twirled and moved within his arms, feeling the heat between them. Finally the dance ended and she was in Endymion's arms, hands splayed on his chest.

His hands were firm on her hips as he lowered his head to hers, "My Serenity" he whispered along her lips before he kissed her.

End Memory

Then Serena recognized the man walking towards as Endymion, and as his reincarnation, Darien. 'No' was her thought as he came up to her and took her hands into his and started to dance with her as he had done so many years ago.

They danced, the same dance as she had danced and sung to 1,000 years ago; heat flashing between them, weaving them in and out of each other's arms. Finally the dance ended and they were in the same position. The exact same one as before. He lowered his head to hers but instead of saying she was his, he said, "I'm sorry" and kissed her as he had wished to do for so many years.


Senya watched his sister and her soul mate kiss. His eyes were happy yet he knew it was too soon. "My dear sister, your heart has been shattered to many times to count. You must learn to trust him again.

Trust them again if you want to be truly happy. But it is too soon." With that he disappeared into the shadows.


Serena pulled out of Darien's arms with an expression on her face that no one had seen on it in 5 years, fear. "I'm sorry Darien I can't do this yet. You hurt me badly and my heart isn't healed yet. Please give me time to figure out this. I love you Endymion but I have to think this through." And at that she disappeared into the shadows. Darien watched her go. He knew it was too soon but he hoped she healed soon. Because he didn't know how long he could last.
Serena teleported into Lita's room. Lita had been practicing and seeing the distressed Serena, immediately came to her side. She held Serena in her arms as the girl cried out the story. Lita knew that it was hard for a heart to heal and she knew it would take time. Until then she knew that she would always be here for Serena, Sailor Moon, Serenity.
