Mina yawned slowly as she sat in a leather booth at the Crown Arcade.  Her blonde hair pulled into a messy bun and her legs crossed in the seat. "Why exactly did we meet this early in the morning?" Lita groaned letting her tired head fall onto the back of the booth.

"Because I can almost guarantee Serena won't be here this early. She's probably still resting from the fight." Raye spat out angrily, while rolling her dark purple eyes.

"Why does it even matter though? We don't have our powers anymore! What? Do you expect us to force Serena to give them back?" Mina sarcastically waved her hands around for emphasis only to have Raye glare openly at her.

The girls all let out dejected sighs as the automatic door slowly slid open to reveal Darien looking particularly shaggy. His hair was a mess and his clothes were wrinkled from hurrying out early after a long night of tossing and turning. Raye grinned as her eyes scanned over him. "Hey babe!" She called happily. "Hey." He stated hesitantly as he pulled up a chair to the end of the table making Raye frown. The girls all gave him a wondrous glance but dismissed another further thought about it.

"So why the hell are we here?" He asked as his temple made a loud thwack against the table.

"We are here to discuss this Serena problem…. It seems we have underestimated her." Amy stated calmly still typing on her Mercury computer. "Obviously!" Mina barked angrily. "We are also here to find out why the hell Raye never told us about Serena's power and if she should stay in the group," Lita stated keeping an eye on Raye's facial expression. "WHAT?" Raye bellowed as she shot out of the booth to loom over the others. "I haven't heard anything about this!"

"Well you have now," Mina stated simply. Raye's eye twitched with frustration as she stared at the others. "What do you mean stay…in…the…. group?" Raye inquired slowly. "We mean exactly what it sounds like we mean." Amy informed Raye.

"The way I see it y'all don't even have a group anymore."

The girl's heads whipped around towards the bar of the arcade. Serena grinned as she swiveled around in circles on her customary chair. Daman and the girls were behind her arguing over whether squirrels control literature and how sloth's can mate because they are so slow.

Darien slowly rolled his head to the side so that his cheek was against the table and his eyes widened. Serena cocked her head o the side and raised a perfectly shaped eyebrow. "What?" She asked curious.

Darien just about burst into tears as he started to bang his head on the table mumbling "stupid" over and over again. 'Why the hell did I ever cheat on her?" Darien thought as he glanced at Serena again. Her blue jeans fit her perfectly, and pooled at her feet around white black shoes. Her red muscle shirt under a white dress shirt (Obviously one of Daman's old ones) accentuated all her curves and brought out her smoky eyes. Her hair was lightly curled and framed her face beautifully. Darien let out another sob. "Why me?" he mumbled sadly.

Raye just about blew a gasket. "We still have a group! Who the hell do you think you are?" Raye barked.

"I am the one that controls your powers! Haha!" Serena sarcastically shot back as she slowly slid off the stool.

Raye was immediately in Serena's face. "I got rid of you once, I can do it again!" Raye warned as she stepped closer to Serena. Suddenly Raye's head was jerked back as Daman grabbed a fistful of her long black hair. "OW! Damn it let go of me!"

"I am usually a mellow person and am very respectful to ladies but if you even think of touching her I will snap your neck like a twig. Got it?" Raye didn't say anything as Daman let go of her. She glanced at Mariana and Areena who looked extremely pissed. "Whatever." Raye turned and sat back down with the girls as Darien lowered his head back down to the table. "Oy vae!" He mumbled once again.

Daman walked over to Serena and wrapped his arms around her waist as he kissed her on the cheek. She smiled and leaned into him. "Well if you would excuse me. I have a meeting to attend. Good day ladies," Serena and Daman grinned as the turned and walked out to their bikes. The scouts all let out the breath they had been holding as Ray grabbed her head. "Ouch!"

As Serena climbed on her bike she looked at Daman who was handing Areena a helmet. "What? Why do I have to wear one? You don't!" Areena stamped her foot in frustration. "Knowing you you'll fall off and cause even more damage to this," Daman emphasizes his point by flicking Areena in the forehead. "Hey!" She stated putting a hand to her head and hitting him on the arm with the other. He simply stuck his tongue out at her and dodged another hit.

Daman finally noticed Serena looking at him. "What?" he asked confused. Serena just grinned and turned around. Mariana rolled her eyes and informed Daman that Serena just thought he was a "sexy beast." Daman turned bright pink as Areena gagged. Serena laughed and winked as she sped off, Daman right behind.

As they sped to their destination Serena had one though in her mind. 'So this is what lone really feels like.'
