Darien finally spotted the costume he had been looking for after about a half hour. She truly was a vision. Her toga fell from her right shoulder and her heels kept it from dragging on the floor. She appeared to have on something underneath, similar to a bikini top but he wasn't sure. He would never have taken Serena for the bikini type. It seemed too revealing for her naive nature. He took a deep breath and walked toward her and tapped her on the shoulder.

"Wanna dance?"

"Sure."

They moved away from the crowd and began dancing. He looked at her moves and noticed something almost immediately. This wasn't Serena. Her moves were too precise and far too sensuous. Serena didn't strike him as the sensuous kind.

"So what's your name?" he asked her.

"Wouldn't you like to know?" she answered. "You look pretty good in that suit, like the real Tuxedo Mask."

"Thanks."

"So do you go around rescuing women too?"

Darien smiled at her. "No."

"What a shame?" she said flirting with him.

"Are you implying you need saving?"

"Maybe if it's you," she said with a wide grin.

He smiled back. She wasn't Serena but she was fun. She was also a shameless flirt but he didn't mind. It was taking his mind off the fact that it would appear that Serena hadn't showed up to this party at all and if she did, he was hopeless to what she would be dressed up as.

Serena stood not too far away from where Darien was dancing. She knew it was him because she could sense him. She got this odd shiver down her spine anytime he was close by. She wasn't sure what caused it but she damn sure didn't care for it. It was just weird. Then she thought about something she had heard a long time ago, 'You can sense evil'. You could probably sense the world's biggest jerk too. She knew she was. She strained to get a look at the girl he was dancing with. She knew it wasn't Rei by the blonde hair. She was almost positive

Rei would never wear a blonde wig. She probably thought she'd lose IQ points or something. She moved left and right, around the people who were walking around the park having a good time, trying to get a glimpse of this mystery girl. She did spot one thing that she was surprised she missed that gave his mystery dance partner away. Darien's dance partner was wearing all white but she had a small red barrette holding back her hair on the left side; Mina.

She watched Mina dance with Darien as she flirted shamelessly. Leave it to Mina to converse with the enemy. She had no loyalties when it came to a good looking guy, which even she had to admit he was tonight. Dressed in a tuxedo and hat, resembling Tuxedo Mask, he was very handsome. She shook her head and walked in their direction.

"Mina!"

"Ohmigod, I would never have recognized you. You look so great."

"You look good to," Serena said laughing. She reached over to her barrette. "But this gave you away."

"You know me," Mina said laughing with her.

"So who's your dance partner?" Serena asked curious to know if Mina knew who she was dancing with.

"I haven't a clue," Mina said looking at him. "Do you have a name?"

"I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours?" he replied.

"She just said my name, it's Mina."

"Darien."

"Really?" she answered amused. She was smiling really hard and looking back and forth from him to Serena. "Do you know her?" she asked motioning to Serena.

"Don't think we've met, Darien."

"This is my cousin..."

"Mina!" Serena said looking at her with wide eyes.

"...her name is Misha. You should dance with her. I see this positively gorgeous vampire who must simply take a bite of me. CIAO."

"Mina!"

"Have fun Misha!" Mina walked away leaving Darien and Serena looking at each other. Maybe if he didn't know who she was, he would be nicer to her.

Mina wasn't the Senshi of Love for nothing. She knew they liked each other, it just seemed like everything else got in the way. She saw the way he was just eyeing her. He was impressed, so was she for that matter. The reddish colored wig had a white stripe in the front and made her look completely different. The tight all-in-one was also uncharacteristic for Serena, who was always more comfortable in loose fitting clothes. She looked absolutely amazing. Mina tapped the vampire on the shoulder. He turned to face her.

"Dance?"

"Sure."

Andrew was absolutely captivated. She was smart and funny. She was fun and they were having a great time. They were dancing and talking but he still didn't know her name. It didn't seem to matter though, he was sure this was her. And he hadn't seen Darien since they showed up so he was going to be on the better side of this situation. Too bad too, he thought they would make a good a couple.

He did a quick scan of the room and noticed, who he would later find out was Ken and Mina dancing.

"Wow," he said his face feeling a little warm with shock and embarrassment.

"What?" Lita asked looking behind her.

"Look at the vampire and the blonde."

"My, my Ken," she said with a chuckle.

"You know him?"

"Oh yeah. We're old friends. We've known each other forever. He's my best friend."

"And her?"

Lita found the barrette almost instantaneously.

"She's also my best friend."

"Do they know that?" Andrew asked.

"Know what?"

"That they're both your best friends."

"Doubt it. If I know her, she hasn't even asked him his name yet. She doesn't care either. She just knows that she thinks he's hot."

"And him?" he asked.

"Does he look like he cares?"

"No," Andrew agreed. "So what's your name?"

"Lita, yours?"

"Andrew," he said taken aback. It wasn't Serena. He could have sworn...

"Something wrong?" she asked noticing the look on his face. It took her a minute but she realized he'd thought she was someone else.

"No," he said quickly.

"Who'd you think I was?" she asked quietly.

"No one."

"You're lying. I saw your face. You were disappointed. I've got to go," she said walking away and leaving him standing there alone.

Molly head rested on Nephlyte's shoulder as they danced. He had his arms wrapped around her and they were slow dancing to their own music. She lifted her head and looked at him.

"I still can't believe this is real."

"Neither can I. All I know is that I have a second chance to be with you."

"Are you staying?" she asked really quietly.

"I can't stay but I'm allowed to visit with you anytime I want."

"Really?"

"Yeah, really. You can visit me too."

"Hmm," she said resting her head back on his shoulder. She felt his lips as he gave her a light kiss on her neck.

"Rei, would you please stop and talk to me."

"Not now Chad."

"You are like a woman possessed. Who or what are you looking for?"

"I need to find Serena. It's extremely private so go away."

"Is it Scout business?" he asked quietly.

"What?" she said looking at him with wide eyes but trying to pretend she had no idea what he was talking about.

"That is what I've been trying to talk to you about. I know."

"You know what?"

"I know that you're Sailor Mars."

"Don't I wish," she said laughing. "You've got a few screws loose, Chad." She walked away from him giving herself a mental shake. 'Good cover' she said mentally. Without warning she bent down and did a leg sweep knocking Chad on his butt.

"Oww," he said rubbing his butt. "And I'm crazy."

She helped him up and grabbed his hand. She dragged him behind her until she found a clear area with no one around. She turned and looked at him. There were little flames of fire in her eyes.

"What do you think you know?"

"Oh put the fire away. I'll tell you everything I know."

She blinked and the flames were gone. She crossed her arms across her chest and glared at him.

"I know that you're Sailor Mars. I know Lita is Sailor Jupiter and Ami is Sailor Mercury. I..."

"How do you know? What's your proof?" she asked cutting him off.

"How about the pyro act you just put on, include the fact that I saw you guys training and I saw Lita do a move that not even two hours later I saw Sailor Jupiter do. Ami's BLUE hair, need I say more. Oh and the easiest part of it, five of you and five of them. The easiest part has to be that Sailor Moon and our very own Serena have the exact same hairstyle."

"All coincidences," she said giving him a look.

"Did I forget to mention I saw you guys transform."

"You did what?"

"Trust me, I saw nothing. It was more of the end."

"Okay, so you know my secret, what do you want?" she asked impatiently.

"Nothing. I just wanted you to know that I know. You can trust me, I won't tell anybody."

"And why should I trust you," she said looking at him through slit eyes.

Chad didn't use words. He closed the distance between them and held her hands in his own long side her body. He moved in until their lips touched. He let the kiss last all of thirty seconds before he pulled away from her. He let go of her hands. Her eyes were still closed and he could see her regaining her coolness. Rei opened her eyes and looked at Chad. He looked back at her.

There was silence between them. There was silence in the air. Then a song came on and she dragged him with her back toward the party.

"What did I do? I'm sorry."

"You're sorry you kissed me?" she asked him, still dragging him behind her.

"No."

"Then what are you sorry for?"

"What ever it is that is causing you to drag me around."

"This is my favorite song and if you feel like that kiss says you do then dance with me."

She finally stopped and turned to him. She stood there waiting for him to make the first move. Chad moved closer to her and put his arms around her waist. She put her arms around his neck as they started dancing, very close.
