"We will need to remove her from school grounds. Because of this man, she is a threat to this school. Serena, are you okay with that?" The police officer said. Serena didn't answer. It has been about three hours since Micheal showed up. Since he left, she couldn't speak or stop shaking. She couldn't remember Rei's words of comfort. The only thing she could remember was the fact that he was back and wanted who knows what. The policehad takenher to the hospital, dicided that her cut was minor and when she wouldn't speak, they relized she was in shock.

"Sere, you need to snap out of it. We know hes back and we'll all stick by you!" Rei said, hoping to get an answer out of her. Still nothing. As the doctor talked with her hysterical parents, she sat up. The first independant movement since he left.

"I don't need to be removed from school grounds," she said in a calm tone.

"Serena, yes you do. Your a danger to everyone around you," The police oficer said.

"No I'm not. Micheal doesn't care about anyone else. Only me,"

"Ms. Tuskino, we know the damage you to can cause. We are worried that he will take a life of another student,"

"He wants me. I don't know what for, but he does. He is using my friends hostage so why can't I do the same?"

"Who would you be holding hostage?"

"Me,"

"Your going to hold yourself hostage?" the officer asked in confusion.

"Yes. He was going to kill Darien. I slit my wrists and he flipped out,"

"So you mean to say that he cares about you in a wierd sort of way? Becausethats what it seems like,"

"I hope to God thats not true," Rei broke in.

"Sere, I think he does. It may not be love fortunatly, but I'm thinking it would belust," Serena cringed. "Well, its true. The way he looked at you. I don't think you should be anywhere alone untill the police catch him," Rei said.

"The young lady is right Ms. Tuskino. If it is lust, he could end up raping you,"

"And if I were protected, he would end up threatening me with someone I love and would get to it eventually. I would rather be raped then have someone dead,"

"Sere, this guy will kill you," Rei said, cracking her knuckles. She was mad at herself for not helping her. Serena was nearly killed several times to try to help her and she couldn't even help her once.

"I'll be right back," the officer said, leaving the room.

"Sere?" Rei asked nervously.

"Yeah Rei?" God. How can Serena take all this? She sounded so calm. "I'm so sorry I didn't help I should have, but it all happened so fast and..."

"Rei, don't worry about it. I didn't want you helping anyway,"

"Why?"

"Rei, you know how dangerous he is. He would've killed you,"

"But still, I feel so bad! Everyone else does too..."

"I didn't want you to help. I would've fought you away anyways,"

"You mean it?"

"Yes. Trust me. He's dangerous. And now, he's stronger. He knows what to expect of me and is more prepared. He isn't going to underestimate me like he did before,"

"You should call Darien. By now, he probably is getting ready to board the the nextplane hereor something," Serena reached in her purse and pulled out her cell phone.

"Twenty seven missed calls and nine text messages. All from Darien,"

"He knows," "

Obviously. Let me call him back," she said, dialing his number.

"Sere?" Darien said on the first ring.

"Hey Darien. Yes,its me,"

"OH MY GOD! SERENA HE ESCAPED! I WAS WATCHING THE NEWS AND THEY SAID HE WENT RIGHT TO YOUR SCHOOL!" Darien yelled.

"Yes, I know. He attcked me,"

"HE DID? ARE YOU OK?" he said in amore hystericalvoice.

"Yes. Just a bit of shock and a cut,"

"WHAT DID HE DO?" he screamed.

"Darien, calm down. He just cut me a little. It wasn't serious,"

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah,"

"Sere, I'm comming. I'll be there as soon as possible,"

"Darien no. It isn't as bad as you think..."

"With him, its always bad,"

"Darien, when is your next vacation?"

"Two weeks,"

"Come then. I don't want you to miss school just because of me,"

"Your more important,"

"Darien, if you come, I'll shove you back on that plane. And you know I will,"

"What if he hurts you?"

"Then I'll find a way to hurt him back,"

"Serena what if he rapes you?"

"He wouldn't do that," She said, even though most likely, it was something he would do.

"You say that like I haven't seen his hand up your shirt," Serena didn't speak. "Yeah, I know," Darien continued. "My God, why didn't you answer? I was so freaking worried!"

"The police were trying to decide what to do with me,"

"What do you mean?"

"They don't want me to go to school. I'm going to try to convine them Micheal isn't harmful to the other kids,"

"They think your a threat to people?"

"Yes. Micheal didn't even do anything to the others when he was there! Only me,"

"I have to agree with you on that. I don't think he cares about anything else.I want to come back,"

"No,"

"I have a feeling he's going to do something,"

"Don't worry about it. On better terms, we have three new students. The Three Lights," Hoping to change the subject. It worked.

"Don't try to chan...the THREE LIGHTS?"

"Yeah,"

"Wow. Are they nice?"

"Taiki and Seiya are cool and sweet, but Yaten has a bad attitude. Its pretty funny though,"

"What did he do?"

"He threw a calculater at a girls head because she chopped off a small chunk of his hair," Darien laughed

"Were they there when he showed up?"

"Yes. Rei, Lita, Taiki, Seiya, and Yaten were. They feel bad for not helping, even though I told them not to,"

"Lets get back to the main topic now. What are you going to about Micheal?"

"Darien I don't know!" Just then, the police officer came into the room. "I have to go Dar. I love you,"

"I love you too. Serena, if anything happens, I'm going straight over there,"

"Don't worry. Bye," She hung up and looked at the officer. "I want to go to school. I'm not a threat. If he comes, he'll only hurt me. And I don't need protection,"

"Look Miss..."

"Please. I don't want this guy controlling my life,"

"Thats up to the school administration. I talked to them about it and they said it would be okay if you came back," Just then, Serena got a text message.

"Thanks. I don't mean to be rude, but can I go home now?"

"Yes you may. Your car is outside. We're just going to be talking to your parents. We'll have them call you. Try to be in public as much as you can,"

"Thanks. Cmon Rei," They walked out to Serenas car. She's had that Camri since she turned 16. As it turned out, she was a natural at driving. Thanks to Amara, she could drive like a pro. She got in the drivers seat and checked her text message. I'M WATCHING YOU, it said.
