Lita ran around the school track. She was training for track and field, and was more determined than ever to win this year. She ran with her head down, focusing on the track.

"I can't loose concentration!" she thought to herself. Her legs were throbbing, but her feet kept running. She pushed herself continuously. Harder, harder, faster, quicker! Suddenly her foot gave way underneath her. She fell forwards, holding her hands out to break her fall. She went skidding forwards, hands, knees, and face rubbing against the rocks. Rain started to fall softly, and she rolled on her side to let her wounds wash themselves. She rolled a bit too far over, and began to roll down a hill.

"Oh great," she thought, "How random could this be…and retarded too."

Lita let herself roll, but soon it got out of control. Her body bounced on the ground, and knocked her out. The rain began to pour heavily, covering her from head to foot in water.


A boy walked along the empty school hallways, just heading home from his locker. He had forgotten something, and he was lucky enough to have a janitor let him by. He glanced at the windows, rain sliding down each pane. He loved to get caught in the rain, but he couldn't just yet. He needed to keep his books dry. His tutor was coming over tomorrow, and he couldn't leave them with a wet book and him. They would never be able to handle that. Window by window, the boy walked down the hallways. He passed by one window when he saw a girl lying just at the foot of a hill.

"What the-?" He thought. "Is that a…person?"


Darien finished tying his track shoes as he walked out the door. He ran all the way to the school track to begin training, not wanting to loose his title of 1st place in track. As he got to the yard, he saw a figure lying at the bottom of the hill.

"Lita?" he said. "Lita!"

No response. He ran out to her and kneeled at her side.

"Lita! Can you hear me?"

He turned her over, and saw grass stains, dirt marks, blood and skin covering her.

"Looks like she had a nasty fall." He said. He lifted Lita in his arms, supporting her. He then reached another hand underneath and lifted her up to bring her to Serena's.

"Click!" went a camera. Darien turned his head to the sound. A boy with a camera waved to him with a smile.

"Hey, you! Come back here!" shouted Darien.


The boy from the hallways who had seen Lita ran out of the school and towards the yard. He saw another tall boy in a tracksuit holding the girl.

"You, come here!" said the tall boy. "I need you to take care of this girl!"

The boy rushed over to the girl and the tall boy. The tall boy handed him the girl.

"My name's Darien," said the tall boy. "Take care of this girl somehow. I have something to take care of."

Darien handed the boy Lita and dashed off. The boy stood there, struggling under the weight. He managed to walk to his house, where his mother went white in horror when she opened the door.

"She was found at the bottom of a hill." Said the boy.

"Of course, honey." Said his mother. She went and got some towels. "Here, lay down the poor girl on these, dear."

The boy laid Lita down on the towels, while his mother went to fetch the first aid kit. Just as the mother was about to finish cleaning off the last cut, the girl's eyes popped open as she sat up.

"What in the world?" she cried out. "Where am I?"

The girl looked over at the boy.

"And who are you?" She asked.

"You-you fell down. I'm…" said the boy.

"Speechless. I get it. It's ok, I understand. Thanks for helping me though."

The mother finished putting on the last band-aid.

"There, all done!" she said. "You've been pretty beat up!"

"Thanks so much. Call on me if you ever need help. My name's Lita."

"Lita? Well, it's nice to know you, Lita."

Lita waved goodbye as she hopped out the door.

"Honey, I'm proud of you for taking care of that girl. Now go upstairs and start studying. Your tutors coming tomorrow."


Darien ran around the whole school, but couldn't find the culprit that took his photo.

"Why would they want my photo anyways?" he wondered.

He turned back to the track, but Lita and the boy were gone.

"He probably brought her somewhere else. I'll go see if Lita's home now, though."

Darien turned to run towards Lita's house. He's like to pop in to make sure she's ok.


The boy that took Darien's photo handed the picture to someone else, hidden by a shadow. The whole room was dark and only lit by the glow of something small.

"Here you go, sister." He said, laughing.

"Is it good enough?" The girl asked.

"Oh I'm sure," said the boy with the camera.

"Good. Is there anything else you took?"

"There's this." Said the boy, holding out his hand.

"Great. Let's put this plan into action."


Serena woke up to the shrill sound of her phone ringing. She turned in her bed and covered her ears with her pillow.

"Serena!" screamed her brother from downstairs. "Get the phone!"

"Luna…" started Serena, going to ask if she could get the phone for her.

"Serena, get up. Don't be so lazy." Said Luna. "Besides... I'm a cat!"

"Mmm, alright." Said Serena. She turned on her bed slowly towards Luna. Luna jumped in the air with her paws flying. Her eyes popped out of her head as Serena's back came closer and closer. Splat. Serena squished Luna.

"Hello?" said Serena groggily.

"Serena? It's Darien."

"Darien!" said Serena with a shock. She sprung from her bed.

"Yeah, meet me at the park in 10 minutes."

"10 minutes? But that's so soon!"

"Yeah, but we both have school, Serena."

"Oh alright alight." Said Serena.

"Bye," said Darien, "I love you."

"I love you too, Darien." Said Serena, and she hung up.

"Oh Luna! Darien wants to see me I'm so excited I wonder what it could be! But did he have to make it so early and soon? Oh well! Anything for Darien! Right Luna? Luna?"

Serena turned and looked for Luna.

"I'm…under…you." Came a muffled sound from Serena's rear end. Serena's head slowly slid down as a teardrop formed on the back of her head. She got up in choppy actions as she turned to find Luna squashed against the mat.

"Thanks…" said Luna.


Serena turned the corner and saw Darien waiting for her on the bench.

"Yoo-hoo! Darien!" said Serena waving, her eyes in the shape of upside-down "U's". She walked up to Darien. "You wanted to see me?"

"Yeah, something's really odd."

"Odd?"

"Yeah, someone took my photo yesterday." Said Darien.

"Well, you're so handsome and everything," began Serena, squishing her 2 index fingers together.

"No, someone took my photo, trying to make sure I didn't see them."

"Oh,"

"And Rei's still missing."

"Rei… I remember Rei. Black hair, mean to me… Rei."

"Yeah. And my photo of Andrew and me as a kid is missing."

"Really?" asked Serena

"Yeah, I'm just really confused. I think something might be happening. Anyways, you have to go to school." Said Darien, standing up. "See yeah, my little meatball head."

Serena stood on her toes and Darien leaned over. Their lips slowly touched, and then pulled away.

"I love you, Darien." Said Serena. She looked at her watch and her eyes popped out. "8:00! Oh no! I'm going to be late for school again! Oh, miss Haruna's going to be so mad at me!"

Serena dashed off towards her school, waving to Darien. When she got to school, miss Haruna towered over her.

"Serena! Late again, for the third time this week! Detention at lunch!"

Serena's head hung.

"Yes, miss."

She walked to her seat slowly. Once she sat down, the lesson began. Serena sighed.

"Another average day. I wish I could just be a normal teenager."
