Hi everyone! I know I'm updating quite soon. That's because I want the story to progress at a steady rate. Also because I know what its like when you actually like a story, and months later there aren't any new chapters. It's frustrating.

Blood Bond With Love ____________________

"So how long are you staying again?" Asked Serena as she helped Rini unpack at the attic. "A few months, my mom suggested I came. She said it would be a good distraction" "For you or for them?" Serena just couldn't help herself. Years of teasing the little brat just couldn't be erased. "For me, of course meat ball head" "Don't call me that" Hissed Serena, she knew she was a bit more edgy than normal. But in three days it would be the 9th anniversary since she got shot.

She hated when people teased her or called her names. It reminded her of her years in "the streets of the damn." That's what people called the empty poor streets of the area an hour and a half away from Tokyo. A place where poverty reigned and people died everyday. Her lonely childhood playground.

A voice snapped her out of her memory. She knew she was zoning out a lot lately. "What did you say Rini?" "I said that you are a meatball head, so why shouldn't I call you that?" "I already told you I don't like it" Rini took her annoying teasing voice. "You don't mind it when Darien calls you that" "That's different" She snapped back. Who did this kid think she was? Coming from the future and wanting to tell her what to do? Call her names. She remembered why there had been a time when she despised the little brat.

'But she's your future daughter' Said the voice in her head. It was right, she hated it when the voice was right (which was most of the time) 'Well if. when I have children I'm teaching them how to behave and respect. Specially her' She was angry now, really angry. She wished she were at the gym so she could punch and kick the punch bag. Great way of dealing with anger.

Serena stormed out of the room silently. Not even looking at Rini. She ran to her door and locked the door behind her. Then she started to cry, tears spilled without effortlessly.

Luna, who had been downstairs, went upstairs to check on Rini and Serena. "Hello Rini" Greeted the black cat. "Hi Luna" "Do you know where Serena is?" "She was here a while ago. She got upset for some reason and locked herself in her room" "You had a fight already?" "No! I just called her meatball head. I teased her a bit and boom she stormed out" The cat became worried. Serena had been acting strange the last few weeks. She didn't mention it at all but she thought something was up.

"I think it may be that time of the month" Said Rini with a giggle. Luna smiled (as much as a cat can smile. but then this is Luna we're talking about) "By the way Rini, there's a scout meeting in an hour at Rei's temple" "Ok, I'll be there" Luna walked down the stairs, over to were Serena's door was. She scratched on the door a few times, meaning for Serena to open it. The girl couldn't hear it though, her sobs knocked out the sound. Luna who was a bit worried by now decided to go climb up the window from outside. She wasted no time on running out the house. She carefully but efficiently climbed up the vine that led to Serena's balcony. Once on the balcony she started to scratch the window. "Serena open up!" She yelled.

The blonde paused her crying because of the scratching at her window. She opened the curtains, revealing her red puffy eyes and tear-traced face to the cat. Luna gasped lightly, She opened the window and let the cat in. "Serena are you all right?" She sobbed "Yeah I'll be fine. What's wrong Luna?" "Nothing, I just wanted to check on you. Serena what's wrong"

"Nothing really. you know me. Crying for no reason." "You don't cry like that for no reason" The girl sat on the bed and sighed "Has my brother called?" "No that I've heard" Informed the cat. "K, thanks" Serena dried up her eyes and managed a smile for Luna. "I'm fine, really. Just remembered something" "No, something's wrong and you don't want to tell me. You've been like this for weeks"

Serena looked away, a bit ashamed. "In three weeks it'll be nine years since I was shot. In a month my brother and Morpheus will come to arrange the whole guardian thing. And I don't know who I want to stay with" She whispered, tears forming again. "What do you mean Serena? You'll stay with your parents of course" "Luna, for me Neo and Trinity are my parents. Ken and Ikuko are like. they abandoned me. abandoned me there!!" She yelled and now the real reason for her worries came out. She was torn between the people she loved.

**************************************************** Hello dear readers THIS IS IMPORTANT!!!! So please do read it: I know you might be getting lost. I'm going to explain the family bond so you don't get mixed up.

As we all know Ikuko and Ken are Serena's and Sammy's parents. Well Serena has her moon kingdom mother but we won't get into that.

Morpheus Anderson is the stepbrother of Neo Thomas Anderson. Neo married Trinity and Morpheus is married to Niobe. (All matrix characters. Including Tank) William is Serena's older brother (also known as Spike, ~.^ wink wink. From Buffy the vampire slayer) William is 4 years older than Serena and is not Ikuko's (Serena's mother) son. It seems that once when Ken went on a trip to England to cover story he met William's mom. He. (Cough) left her with a bun in the oven and didn't really know it until the woman died of Cancer.

William's mom was a close friend with Morpheus and his wife Niobe. She asked them to take care of her son after she died. William only went to visit his father once a year and lived the rest with Morpheus and Niobe who he considers his mom and dad.

When Serena and her cousin Faith were left alone in the streets of the damn Serena got shot. Morpheus and William found out about it and looked for them. They brought them to Neo and Trinity's home. Both Serena and Faith were given to their care. A year later the girls asked Neo and Trinity to adopt both girls. They accepted, that's why my dear readers Serena's whole name is Serena Anderson Tsukino.

Pacey is from Dawson's creek.
