"Where's Tuxedo Mask?" Serena thought as the monster kept draining her energy.
"Sailor Moon?" She heard a male's voice yell. "Tuxedo Mask?" Serena thought as she forcefully looked up to see Spencer grabbing clothing.
"Get off of her, you crazy monster!" Spencer yelled, throwing clothes at the monster. The monster got off of Serena and ran to Spencer. Spencer tried to guard himself with a clothing rack, but the monster maneuvered her hand around it and grabbed him by the neck.
"Silly boy, why would you attack me with no powers?" The monster asked, laughing.
Serena picked herself up, her body aching with every movement. "So that I could do this." Serena yelled at the monster, taking out her weapon.
"Silver moon. Crystal power kiss." Serena yelled, as her weapon let out a bright light. The monster let go of her grasp on Spencer and disintegrated. Spencer fell to the ground and let out a small groan. Serena walked over to Spencer and knelt down beside him.
"Are you okay?" Serena asked him.
Spencer looked up and gave a smile. "Are you really Sailor Moon?" Spencer asked in awe.
Serena gave a smile. "Yes, I am." She said.
"Wow!" He exclaimed trying to get up, but falling back to the ground.
"You should rest. Heroes need rest too." Serena said smiling down at him.
"Me...A hero. That's funny." Spencer said, laughing.
"No, seriously. You really did help me out." Serena said.
"Well, I had too. Your Sailor Moon." Spencer said smiling.
"Thanks Spencer." Serena said.
Spencer raised an eyebrow and gave a look of confusion to Serena. "How do you know my name?" He asked.
"I'm Sailor Moon. I know everyone's name." Serena lied.
Spencer raised his body up to where he was in a sitting position. "Certainly, you must have an alter ego." Spencer said.
"Have we met before?" Spencer asked.
"Of course not. Don't be crazy." Serena said standing up.
Spencer looked up into Serena's eyes and stared. "What's wrong?" Serena asked.
"Nothing...it's just your eyes look very familiar." Spencer said, still looking into her eyes.
"Oh look...more crime to fight." Serena said, walking away.
Spencer grabbed her ankle softly. "Wait..." Serena turned around and looked down to see Spencer's gray eyes shimmered with worry. "I came here to look for a friend of mine. Her name is Serena. Someone said she came in here, but I'm not sure. Have you seen another girl around here?" He asked.
Serena smiled. "Serena is quite alright. In fact...she is great. You should wait for her here. She should be back." Serena said, walking away.
Serena sat at a phone booth with her friend Spencer. Spencer gave a smile as he called up the school to prepare a lie for why he was not at school.
"Hello Mr. Cloton." Spencer said in a deep voice, making Serena laugh.
"Yes, this is him." Mr.Cloton said through the line
"Mr. Cloton, this Kendrick Grace, Spencer's father." Spencer continued.
"Oh wow! It's nice to be talking to you." Mr.Cloton said excitement in his voice.
"Yes, I'm talking to you about bad news though. My son has a head cold today, that's why he's not at school today." Spencer said.
"Oh...I hope he gets better. Best wishes." Mr.Cloton said.
"Thank you. Bye." Spencer said, hanging up the telephone. Spencer gave a slight chuckle. "I can't believe I got away with that." He said stepping out of the way, so that Serena could use the phone.
"Don't you think it would be sort of weird for my mom to call right after your dad?" Serena asked.
"Well, Mr.Cloton is clueless. It's alright." Spencer said.
Serena gave out a sigh. "Okay." She said, putting a coin into the machine and dialing the school's number.
"Hello, Mr.Cloton's office." Mr.Cloton rang through the other line.
"Hi...Mr.Cloton. This is Mrs. Tsukino." Serena said in a raspy voice.
"Oh...you sound pretty sick there." Mr.Cloton said.
"Yeah, my family and I have a flu. So Serena won't' be at school." Serena continued in her raspy tone.
"Yeah, you sound horrible. Well, best of wishes." Mr. Cloton said.
"Thank you. Bye." Serena said, letting out a snort and hanging up the phone.
Serena jumped out of the phone booth and Spencer immediately followed after. "Well...What should we do now. If we go anywhere public, we'll get caught." Serena said looking at him.
"Follow me." Spencer said outstretching his hand for Serena to take. Serena hesitantly took Spencer's offer and walked off with him.
Ami sat with her two friends Mina and Lita at lunch, all of them making looks at each other, wondering where Serena was.
"Where's Serena?" Ami asked looking at her two friends.
"Where's Spencer?" The blonde headed Mina asked.
"Obviously, the two are having a skip day."The brunette Lita chimed.
"Oh please Lita, Serena probably woke up late again." Ami said.
"And missed lunch." Lita mused. Ami looked down at her food with worry in her eyes.
"Ami...Is everything alright? You haven't took a bite of your food." Mina asked, looking at her worried friend.
"Yeah...I just have a funny feeling. I think that I'm going to visit Serena before the meeting. You know check up on her." Ami said.
Serena and Spencer walked through a trail in the woods. Twigs snapped loudly as they walked further and further.
"This should be good enough." Spencer said, sitting on a log near a bunch of tall trees. Serena sat down far from Spencer and looked at him awkwardly.
"What?" Spencer asked.
"Oh, nothing..." Serena said.
"Well, you never guessed who I met today at the mall." Spencer said smiling.
"Who?" Serena said, giving a slight smile.
"Sailor Moon!" Spencer exclaimed.
"It was amazing. She called me a hero." Spencer finished.
Serena put on a smile, laughter was in her eyes. "I'm sure it was great. Too bad I missed my chance." Serena said.
"Yeah...Where were you at?" Spencer asked.
"I was...at the food court." Serena lied smiling.
"Of course. Your still in love with food." Spencer said, smiling at her. Serena sat there looking and smiling at Spencer.
"You know what." Spencer said.
"What?" Serena asked curiously.
"I thinkSailor Moonhas a crush on me." Spencer said simply. Serena smiled and started to blush wildly.
"And why would you think that? I mean she has Tuxedo Mask." Serena said.
"Yeah...but Tuxedo Mask has nothing on me. He's just some pretty boy fling." Spencer said. Serena let out a huge laugh that rang through the forest.
"You know when people laugh like that. It's a nervous reaction." Spencer said, moving closer to Serena.
"Why would I have a nervous reaction?" Serena said, moving further down the log.
"Because, your afraid that I might have a chance with the Sailor moon." Spencer said, smiling. Serena gave Spencer a nervous smile.
"You do think so!" Spencer exclaimed, moving closer. He was only inches away from Serena.
Spencer smiled at Serena's nervous face. "Don't worry, you're still my number one." He said. Serena and Spencer sat with each other, giving one another awkward stares.
"So...was that guy earlier, Darien?" Spencer asked, breaking the silence.
Serena looked down to the ground. "Yeah, that was him." Serena said sadly.
"Good...Because I yelled at him." Spencer said with a serious tone.
Serena's eyes got bigger. "You did!" Serena exclaimed, looking up at him.
"No. But I wanted to. Serena..." Spencer said putting his hand on her hand.
"I want you to know that I'm gonna take complete advantage of him neglecting you." Spencer said moving closer. Serena gave Spencer another nervous smile and looked away from him. There was another awkward pause between the two friends, before Spencer again broke the silence.
"So, can I consider this a date." Spencer joked. Serena gave Spencer a genuine smile and playfully punched him with her free hand.
"I take that as a yes." Spencer said smiling at her.
"Hello, Mrs.Tsukino, is Serena alright?" Ami asked as Serena's mother opened the door. Serena's mother gave a confused look to Ami.
"I wouldn't know. She hasn't come back from school yet...Wait! Did something happen at school?" Mrs. Tsukino asked, worry in her eyes.
"No, I just wanted to know how she was doing without her homework for tonight. She left it at school." Ami lied, handing her a bundle of paper.
"Oh...I'll see that I give this to her." Mrs. Tsukino said.
"Well...I got to go." Ami said, dashing away from Serena's house.
Ami ran into the cafe for her daily meeting with the Sailor Scouts.
"No Serena...Shocker." Rei said, rolling her eyes.
Ami went over to the booth and sat down next to Mina. "I'm actually worried." Ami said.
"Why?" Mina asked.
"She wasn't at home, and her mom doesn't know where she is." Ami said, worried.
"That's our Serena. Irresponsible." Rei said, rolling her eyes again.
"Rei! This is serious, the moon princess is missing." Ami said in a hush tone.
"Not the first time." Rei said.
"Serena, is some what annoying sometimes." They heard a distance male's voice from behind their booth. The Sailor Scouts perked up and tried to listen to the conversation.
"Yeah...but she's also a sweet girl who loves you, Darien." Another male's voice said.
"I know, but Morgan..." Darien said trailing off.
"You only knew her for a week!" The other male's voice exclaimed.
"Yeah, but she is everything a guy could want." Darien said.
"If you ask me she's a arrogant, manipulated bit..."The other male said but was cutoff.
"Don't you even finish that statement, Andrew." Darien said angrily.
"Darien, you're acting crazy. Like someone has cast a spell on you." Andrew said fearfully.
"I'm just in love, Andrew." Darien said.
"So...are you going to break up with Serena?" Andrew asked.
"Yeah...but just for a while." Darien said.
"Darien, she's not a toy you put on the shelve when you get bored." Andrew said angrily.
Darien snorted loudly. Footsteps started to come near the Sailor Scouts booth and then Darien's face appeared. Ami noticed that Darien's countenance looked like he was in a trance, but that still didn't stop the Sailor Scouts from giving him a glare. He looked at the booth then looked to the ground.
"Don't worry, were not going to tell Serena." Ami said, still glaring.
Darien looked up. "I'll tell her, in the right time." Darien said.
"You better!" Mina exclaimed in anger.
"Darien?" Said a voice from the entrance of the diner. Ami looked up to see Serena.
"I'll see you later." Darien said, walking out of diner.
Serena's eyes glowed with sadness. "Do you think he's had another dream?" Serena asked the Sailor Scouts as she walked to the booth. The Sailor Scouts looked at Serena with sympathy.
"What?" Serena asked confused.
"Nothing..." Ami sighed.
"Where were you, Serena?" Lita asked, changing the subject.
"I have bad news." Serena said looking down at the booth's table.
"I'm sorry Queen Beryl, I didn't know that they were gonna figure out so fast." Dorlen said fearfully.
Queen Beryl looked at Dorlen with anger. "Your worthless, I should just kill you now." She said.
Dorlen winced at her words. "I have another idea though." Dorlen said.
"What is it?" Queen Beryl asked, still angry.
"Well, I was thinking that I throw a dance. People waste tons of energy dancing. It would simple to suck them dry." Dorlen said.
Queen Beryl's anger receded. "Well, I guess your not that worthless. Get to your plan straight away." Queen Beryl said.
Dorlen ran fast from Queen Beryl's presence, thinking of how he would hatch his plan.
