A/N: Okay, here's Part1 of Why Do I Cut?. Oh and btw, I lost the original chapter 2 forever because for some reason my computer shut down and even though I saved it, (which i did) it still hates me as usual. Well please R/R!
Disclaimer: Sure I do own those 36 Sailor Moon dvds and videos, (yes i counted, haha) well actually I really don't own them because Naoko Takeuchi and DIC and whatever peoples owns them in actually I do not, so put simply- I don't own Sailormoon. (but i wish i did)

Chapter 2: Why Do I Cut? Part 1
(Serena's P.O.V.)
I had just gotten those two hours of sleep that I had promised myself... and man did it seem like two minutes! I looked at the clock to see the time. I only realized it was the time it was, when I got up from my standard face clock after repeatidly checking it, and finally going downstairs to confirm my doubts that it was twenty minutes before I had to go to school.
"EEK!" I screamed as I freaked over all the things I had to do to be ready for the school day in the next twenty minutes.
'This is impossible!' I thought to myself.
"Okay, Serena, girl, calm down," Serena said aloud directed toward herself, "No time to think, just do everything!"
Serena took the fastest shower of her life and quickly dried her hair the best she could in the little time there was. She came bounding toward the stairs, only to be met with a sleepy Rini.
(Normal P.O.V)
"What'd ya scream for Meatballhead?" Rini said in between yawns.
'Oh god,' Serena thought, 'I forgot I have to wake up Sammy and get Rini and him to their school on time. 'CRAP!'
Serena panicked, "There's no time for talking, I have to hurry!"
"For what?" Rini said as Serena sped by her, not hearing a word she said.
'Whatever' Rini thought to herself, and went to the fridge to see what there was for her to snack on.
Meanwhile, Serena, the tornado, whizzed up into her room (A/N: o btw Serena fell asleep on the couch while she was studying, so that's why she was downstairs when her room is actually upstairs. sorry for confusion). Serena scrambled through the draws in her bureau searching for something to wear. She pulled out a blood red shirt (that's just the color, it's not really blood),and a pair of dark blue, almost black, jeans. She quickly pulled them on and went into Sammy's room to wake him up for school.
"Sammy," Serena said as sweetly as she could, "wake up."
He didn't move. She heard a soft noise coming from her brother.
Snoring.
Serena sweatdropped "SAMMY WAKE UP!" she screamed in his ear.
Sammy immediately jumped in his spot. "What?!" Sammy looked at the clock, "It's only seven!"
"Yeah Einstein," Serena said, "and what are we doing at seven this morning?" She awaited an answer from Sammy who was now sitting up in his bed with a tired look consuming him.
"Sleeping," Sammy said laying down and pulling the covers over his head.
"Fine," Serena muttered loud enough for him to hear her, "but it's your fault if you're late to school!"
Sammy muttered a, "Ditzoid," and then tried to get back to sleep.
"WHAT DID YOU CALL ME?!" Serena yelled.
"Ditzoid," Sammy said simply.
"Why's that you little spore?" (she doesn't hate him, but he's still her brother) Serena said.
An annoyed Sammy said, "One word."
"And what's that?!" Serena said getting more annoyed by the second.
"Saturday."
The look on Serena's face was priceless. Mouth gaping and all.
A confused look crossed her face, "But I have a test today!"
Sammy sighed, "You go to school on Saturday, Meatballbrains?"
"No, but- but" Serena stammered.
'Oh wait just one minute! I'll check my cellphone! It's never wrong about the date!' Serena thought and rummaged through her pockets trying to find her cellphone.
She looked at it.
"Yep, it's Saturday," she said to her dismay.
Serena's eyes get anime swirly
"You mean I could've slept in today?" Serena said mainly to herself.
Wwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
(At the Crown Arcade)
Serena, Sammy, and Rini were sitting in a booth at the Crown Arcade. Andrew had gotten used to them coming often. Well, hey, the food was pretty cheap there! Serena had refused Andrew's treating her and Sammy and Rini shortly after her parents had died. She didn't want to be too much of a free loner now, did she?
"So, Sammy, Rini, how are you doing in school?" Serena questioned the two worriedly. Afterall, they had been through a lot. Serena could barely manage her grades at all before her parents died, but now she had sufficient reasons, work being one of them.
Rini and Sammy pulled out their newly given out report cards and gave them to Serena. (A/N: I know, kinda weird. It's like who carries around report cards with them places? anyways... well... they're smart kids! - )
Serena looked them over.
Rini Tsukino------------------ (ha! they don't know she's Serena's kid so yea right now her last name's Tsukino)

"Wow, Rini! I never knew you were THIS smart!" Serena said never getting an A in her life.
Then she looked at Sammy's report card.
Sammy Tsukino

"You did good, spore," Serena smiled at Sammy.
Serena pulled out her report card (ha! yea i'm having her get her's out too! lol).
ring ring Darien walked into the Crown. He leaned forward and looked over Serena's shoulder at her report card; Serena was oblivious to the man standing behind her.

Darien's mouth was gaping as he read down the list.
'Jeez this girl really is a meatballhead' he thought.
"Jeez," Darien said voicing his thoughts, "You really ARE a Meatballhead, Meatballhead!"
"EEP!" Serena jumped up out of her seat in surprise.
CRASH
"Ow!" Serena and Darien said in unison
Serena's head had collided with Darien's jaw, when she jumped out of her seat.
"WAH!!!!!! That hurt!!!!!!" Serena cried.
She composed herself quickly as the pain dulled.
"Meatballhead! Ow! You've got a head of steel!"
"No I don't!" Serena defended herself, subconsciously feeling her head.
Darien said, "And I thought it was hollow all of this time!"
"Jerk!" Serena exclaimed, "and what made you think my head was hollow!"
"Well, for one thing," he said, "that horrible report card your holding confirms it. Oh sorry do you know what that word means. Confirm means..."
"I know what it means, BAKA!" Serena yelled. He was really getting her ticked off this time.
"Well," Darien said, "I'm glad I'm not you. Wouldn't want to show that to your parents..."
That struck a nerve.
Serena got up and motioned for Rini and Sammy not to say anything to this big jerk about their parents and shouted, "SHUT UP! I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS!" In his face before bolting off out of the Crown Arcade sobbing, blonde hair trailing behind her.
Everyone at the Crown Arcade looked at Darien.
Darien walked over to Andrew. "What was that all about?" Darien asked his best friend.
"It's not for me to say, you'll have to ask her yourself," Andrew said and went back to his job cleaning tables and serving customers.
Darien walked over to Rini and Sammy. "What did your sister mean by 'she doesn't have time for this'?" Darien asked the two. They didn't respond.
Darien decided to find Serena and ask her what was wrong.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
(Serena's P.O.V.)
I ran away from the Crown Arcade, and went to one of the few peaceful places in Tokyo that I knew. It was on a bridge in the park.
I stood on the bridge, in deep thought.
Darien was SUCH A JERK! How can he be that cruel? Oh yeah, he doesn't know about the fact that I don't have parents anymore... Well it's not like I should tell him. He's been a creep to me all of my life, why should I trust him, and tell him now? It's not like he'll actually care that my life is a living hell!
I tried to compose myself once again. It was difficult. I looked at the pond that was small, and looked shallow, but in actuality I heard it was pretty deep. A few thoughts ran through my mind of jumping over (this is a medium sized bridge thingy, couldn't really explain the true thing if I tried). It was just sooooo tempting. But no! I couldn't! I have to stay alive for Rini and Sammy's sake! I couldn't believe that that Jerk was my future husband, and that Rini was him and mine's kid. He of course didn't know those two facts yet, and I wasn't about to tell him. Pluto, and Neo Queen Serenity (myself in the future) had admonished
me not to tell him. To just let things play out on their own. Afterall, I was seventeen, and still young. Rini doesn't know the actual fact yet that I am her mother, but I'm sure she'll remember, or find out soon. I mean- how long can you keep that big of a fact and secret from her?
FLASHBACK (to when all of them went to the future and "discovered everything")
(Normal P.O.V.)
Sailor Moon, the scouts, Luna, Artemis, Rini, and Tuxedo Mask were in the future. They had just been told by Neo Queen Serenity and King Endymion about everything. They'd told them of their daughter Rini, and the fact that Princess Raye had had a premonition of Neo Queen Serenity's future to be sealed up in a crystal chamber (and the premonition would inevitably happen no matter what they did), but it didn't reveal what would happen to everyone including Neo Queen Serenity after the fact.
(A/N: Rini may or may not become Black Lady in this fic. She may or may not get captured in the future like she does in the show- well u'll just have to find out later if she ever will get captured now, wont ya... :) )
Darien had discovered soon afterward that King Endymion was the one who was sending him those dreams that had shown Serena dying because of him, and for him to stay away from her, for her own sake. Everything had been going fine- that is- up until the part when Wise Man and Prince Diamond had shown up.
Prince Diamond appeared behind Serena with a knife, gleaming with nega-energy, at her throat.
"SAILOR MOON!" the scouts shouted.
"Let her go!" Tuxedo Mask roared.
Diamond looked down at the struggling Sailor Moon and smiled a wicked smile, "Oh, but I'm not done with her yet."
"Damn You!" Tuxedo Mask said as he pulled out a steal tipped rose.
'Wait,' Tuxedo Mask thought, 'He has Sailor Moon... I can't attack him if she's there... dammit!'
"Oh dear," Diamond said in a sadistic way reading his mind, "You wouldn't want to harm your precious Sailor Moon, would you now..."
And with that, Diamond released the nega-energy from the knife, at Serena's throat.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------A/N: I am SO sorry if this was confusing! If you have any questions just ask me them in a review. I changed a little something around because it didn't work with how I wanted to write this. So this is everything in sparknotes version ;) :
Serena- Knows: all identities, about Rini, the fact that Rini is Darien and her's daughter, and all Tuxedo Mask's identites.
Darien- Knows: that he's Tuxedo Mask, (now here's the confusing part) he learns everything about Rini, but in the next chapter it will explain why he doesn't remember all that he's learned from the previous flash back in Crystal Tokyo.
Rini- Knows: pretty much nothing... she thinks that she's actually Serena's cousin- explained in the next chapter.
I know it's really weird that I've ended this chapter during a flashback, but it seemed like a good place to end Part 1 of this. There will be a Part 2 coming up soon. Well, Please Review! Thankyou for all 9 reviews from last chappie btw. I was impressed!
