I Don't own sailor moon
4 years later *DREAM*
Serena and Darien stood in the marble white palace, waiting for the queen to appear. They were shocked, however, when Pluto appeared in her place
"Puu! Oh, it's so good to see you!" Serena said happily, running over to the time guardian.
"I don't understand though... I thought we were training with mother today," she said,confused.
"My dear princess, it is good to see you too. You have been training with the crystal for years, and, thanks to Helios, you and Endymion are now more than powerful enough. Together, you are unstoppable. I am here to let you know that in the morrow you will find Luna," Trista said happily.
"Luna! Oh, I have missed her." Serena smiled as Darien came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her.
He loved seeing her so happy. His training with the Golden Crystal over the years had strengthened their bond to the point they were never truly apart.
"Serena you must listen to me, this is very important," Pluto said as she watched the two get lost in each other's eyes.
Both looked at her, giving their full attention to the oldest and wisest sailor scout.
"A few years ago, your mother told you not to act like a princess. I have watched you and must admit I am proud of you, a few failed tests, detentions, being loud and clumsy is exactly what you were meant to do, but I am afraid there will be more. From tomorrow on the scouts and Luna cannot know you are the prince and princess. It is imperative they do not find out whom you are or that you have the crystal," Pluto stressed.
"Be in peace old friend," Queen Selenity said as she appeared behind Pluto.
"I am sorry to ask you both, but why must we keep it a secret? Does this mean we can't show we are together?" Darien asked, frowning.
"No, I could never ask you two to do that. Separating you or having you act against your feelings would be disastrous. Your crystals would never allow it anyway. As for the reason why you must keep the secret, at the end of the Silver Millennium we discovered the scouts had a shift in loyalty. We need to test them now, and as much as I hate to think it, this needs to be done. Serenity, when Luna finds you she will mistake you for a scout." Selenity said, sighing.
"You mean I get to join my scouts in battle?" Serena asked eagerly.
"I don't think I like that idea. It's too dangerous," Darien said.
"Don't worry Endymion, you will be able to watch and guide my daughter the whole time. She will never face any danger without you there. You will understand better tomorrow," the Queen said, smiling.
"We understand," they said solemnly. They knew the reason Luna was not to be told was that she would naturally be harder on the scouts if she thought they may be traitors and they had to make the test fair.
"My prince, I also have a gift for you," Pluto said, handing Darien four crystals. "They are your generals; you will be able to revive them once their clones have all been defeated," she told him.
Darien thanked her with a grateful smile. He had seen his generals turn against him and immediately known the men and woman fighting were not his friends, but a copy of them. He was grateful they had been reborn, but at least they wouldn't have to get them to remember.
"It's time to wake up you two. Serena, don't forget to be late today," Pluto said as she and Queen Selenity faded away.
*End dream*
Serena's eyes snapped open, her brain quickly sorting the events of the dream so they were remembered.
'It's too early for you love, go back to sleep,' she heard Darien chuckle in her mind.
'I am far too excited to sleep. I cannot wait to see Luna; I know she can't know who I am, but still, I have missed her so,' she answered with a sigh.
"SERENA! Time to get up if you don't want to be late!" her mother called from downstairs.
Sighing, she called out, "I'm up, I'm up!" before snuggling back into her covers.
She could feel Darien's presence with her she soon drifted back off to sleep again.
Half an hour later
'Time to wake up now my love,' Darien said softly.
Serena sighed. 'Thank you,' she replied, stumbling out of her bed to prepare for the day.
"Aiiiiieeeeeee! I'm so late! Why didn't someone wake me up? !" She ran around the house, gathering her things for school. She was hurriedly putting on her shoes at the door when she heard her mother say, "I told you to get up a half hour ago and you said you were awake!"
"And you believed me? Thanks for lunch mum!" she shouted, speeding out of the door.
She ran down the streets, wondering if she was going to make it on time today, slightly hoping she wouldn't. She heard a bunch of kids laughing and the screech of a tortured cat, making her stop in her tracks when she came upon them.
"Hey! Leave that poor cat alone!" she shouted, waving a fist angrily at the rotten children.
They quickly ran away, fearing the trouble they would be in if the strange lady shaking her fist at them decided to tell someone.
"It's okay now kitty. Come on, I won't hurt you. Let's get these band-aids off your head," Serena said softly. She knew that she was holding Luna, especially as the crescent moon was uncovered and the cat did a back flip, staring straight into her eyes from the hood of a red car.
"Uh… Nice kitty? OH! I'm late!" she said a little fearfully before running off again.
She was almost at school when she crashed into Darien she smiled happily and kissed him quickly. "Stopped to save a cat –Luna- gonna be late see you after detention love you," she babbled while rushing away again, leaving a slightly stunned Darien to head to his own school.
Darien smiled and shook his head slightly before heading to school. He sighed as he reached the gate. A few of the guys and jealous girls in school had berated him for dating a 14 year old junior high girl, but he just shrugged them off, telling them it didn't matter he was going to marry her as soon as they could so why hide it now? It still didn't make the girls stop doing anything to get his attention on them instead of Serena and his schooling. Darien, however, didn't really care. His only close friends were Rita and Andrew, and they both knew how much he and Serena meant to each other that was all that mattered.
Serena whined at her test paper brokenly, later that day after school. She had forgotten to pass that one; her mother was going to be furious when she got home.
"Hey, Serena! Aren't you so glad Miss H had a date today so you're not stuck in detention?" Molly said, walking up so her. She noticed her friend's blue demeanor and said, "My mum's have a sale at our jewelry store today, wanna come check it out?"
"I suppose I have a bit of time before meeting Darien today." She smiled and headed off with Molly.
"Oh sweet, beautiful Serena, what do you see in that guy?" Melvin mourned after the girls had left him, completely ignoring his presence or just not noticing him.
Serena walked down the street, heading to the arcade, her forlorn eyes glued to her test that had more red on it than it should have. She had ditched the jewelry store after it had gotten too crowded for her liking, deciding to go to the arcade instead.
"Arrrrggg my mum gonna kill me when she sees this," she said pitifully, balling it up and throwing it behind her.
"Ow! I swear woman, you have a radar for hitting my head," Darien chuckled before unfolding the crumpled piece of paper.
"A 30? I thought you were gonna pass this one," he said, confused.
Just then Serena spotted Luna watching them and frowned. "I tried to study but it was just soo boring Darien, and a new comic was out that I just had to read," she whined.
'Luna is here, just play along,' she thought after her slow whine.
Darien tried to look stern, pulling it off quite well. "Serena, we've talked about this! If you don't start focusing on your grades, you won't be allowed out and I will never get to see you," he said, frowning at her.
Serena released a small sob. "I'm sorry, I promise I will do better next time," she said, hanging her head.
Darien frowned again. "It's okay, I'm sorry I got angry. I just don't like the thought of not seeing you; my days would be so bleak without you in them," he said gently, stepping closer and pulling her into his arms.
"Come on, I'll walk you home, then I'll buy you ice cream when your mum throws you out to study. Maybe I can help you when your next test is coming up, give me an excuse to spend more time with you?" he said with a grin.
Serena smiled up at him as they walked to her house, their arms wrapped around each other.
"Serena you're home, oh and you brought Darien! Will you be staying for dinner, dear?" Serena's mum asked, smiling.
"No, thank you. I'm here because Serena didn't do very well on her test yesterday, and I was wondering if I could take her to study with me, so I can help her concentrate."
Irene glared at her daughter sternly before shooing them both out of the house. They stopped for ice cream before Darien dragged Serena to the library to 'help her study'.
Serena collapsed on her bed, utterly exhausted. As she hadn't really needed to study, Darien and she had spent the majority of the time in the library either kissing or reading to each other, making it a fantastic afternoon. She closed her eyes and sighed happily, jumping when she felt something furry against her legs.
"Sorry for scaring you. My name's Luna and I have been looking for you for a very long time, Serena," Luna quipped.
"The cat just talked… I must be dreaming…" Serena said, getting a slightly dazed look in her eyes.
"I assure you this is no dream. Your friend Molly is in trouble and you must help her. Here, I have a gift for you," Luna said seriously as she did a back flip, a pretty broach appearing on Serena's bed.
"For me? It's so pretty! How should I wear it on my uniform? Aww, it's so nice," Serena chattered on.
"Serena, this is no joke. Now say 'Moon Prism Power!' You need to help your friend!" Luna almost shouted.
"Okay, okay, if it will make you happy. Moon Prism Power!" Serena said lazily, her hand automatically going up into the air as a bright light surrounded her. A few seconds later the light faded, showing Serena's dramatic wardrobe change. She was dressed in a white, skin-tight leotard, with a blue skirt and collar. A pink bow rested on her chest, her broach in the middle. Another bow was on her back, just above the skirt. Red knee-high boots with crescent moons on the top were now on her feet, the same moons daggling from her ears. Red jewels adorned her bun atop her head, a golden tiara with a smaller red jewel on her forehead.
"You are Sailor Moon! You fight for love and justice and you are sworn to protect the Moon Princess when we find her," Luna said happily.
Suddenly, the jewels in Serena's hair started glowing. "Ahhh! Somebody help me! My mum's trying to kill me!" the jewels screeched.
"Luna, that's Molly's voice! We have to help her!" Sailor Moon exclaimed, grabbing Luna and jumping from her window, landing safely on the ground before she took off.
Sailor Moon arrived at the jewelry store she had been at earlier to see Molly being chocked by a monster, many unconscious bodies littered around them. "Stop right there!" she shouted, gaining the monsters attention.
"Who are you?" it shrieked, dropping a barely conscious Molly to the floor.
"Me? Um, well I'm, uh, um…" she stammered. Taking a deep breath, she squared her shoulders and put a defiant look on her face. "I am Sailor Moon! I fight for love and justice and in the name of the moon, I will punish you!" she shouted.
"Sailor Moon, huh? Never heard of you, and I'm sure I never will again! Rise my children and serve the power of the Negaverse!" the monster screamed, ending with a cackle.
The people all passed out in the store raised up, looking rather zombie-like with glowing eyes demented smiles, and began attacking her. Sailor Moon squealed, dodging and jumping away from the attacks until she tripped, scraping her knee.
"Aaahhhh I don't know what to do! I wanna go hooooooommmmmmeeee!" she wailed. Her head jewels caught on to the sound and amplified it to a supersonic screech, making all the zombies fall to the ground, once again unconscious.
"How dare you! I'll finish you once and for all," the monster cried, shooting long finger nails directly for the girl sobbing on the ground. Suddenly, red rose appeared, embedding itself into the ground and stopping the monster's talons from reaching Sailor Moon.
"You can do this Sailor Moon!" a voice yelled from the top window. They looked up to see a man dressed in a tuxedo, complete with top hat and mask.
"Sailor Moon, throw your tiara and say, 'Moon Tiara Magic'," Luna hissed from her position beside Sailor Moon.
"Right! Moon Tiara Magic!" Sailor Moon screamed, throwing her tiara like a Frisbee. It hit the monster in the stomach, causing it to scream out and pain and turn to dust.
"Well done Sailor Moon! I am Tuxedo Mask and I will always be here to help," he said waving his cape as he disappeared into the night. Sailor Moon stared up at him in awe, knowing it was Darien.
"Good job Sailor Moon. Now, let's go home before these people wake up," Luna praised.
That night *Dream*
"Well, that was interesting," Serena said as she and Darien walked through the moon gardens.
"Yes, it was. I'm still not sure about you fighting though," he replied with a frown.
"Oh Darien, on the moon I always wanted to fight with the girls; now I get a chance to it's amazing! I think I can get away with being clumsy, with you there to rescue me of course. No one will suspect me as the princess that way," she said smiling broadly.
Darien sighed. "I see this is really that important to you. I will be there every step of the way, love," he said, leaning down for a kiss.
