Chapter 2: Hospital

"Excuse me?" Asked Raye, running up to the counter with the others close by. The lady behind the counter looked up from her computer and smiled, Raye saw that her name tag said, Bella.

"Hello, how may I help you?" Asked the young brunette joyfully from behind the counter.

"We were wondering if you could tell us what room Serena Tsukino is in?" Inquired Amy leaning over the desk.

"Sure thing!" Bella turned to her computer to look up Serena's name.

"Okay, she is in room 6 but the doctor is still checking her out. You can wait outside the door so that you can talk to him if you'd like."

"Thank you very much." Said Lita.

Darien and the girls walked to room 6, Mina looked over at Darien who was looking very pale.

"Hey Darien, are you okay?" Asked Mina, concerned.

He nodded his head stiffly, Mina wasn't convinced.

"I'm sure she's fine Darien, don't worry." The two turned to look at the back of Amy's head.

The blue-haired girl tilted back her head to see if her confidence helped him at all but to her dislike it didn't.

By then they had made it to room 6, Amy knocked on the door and it opened. An older man with grey hair faced them who nodded then smiled.

"Hello there, your Serena's friends right? I will only be a moment." Said the doctor as he closed the door.

Darien sat down with a sigh trying to look laid back but he couldn't hide the fact that he looked really sick with worry. The girls sat down too, they were also worried about their best friend.

Raye put a hand on Darien's shoulder as he mouthed 'Serena' though his dry lips.

A few minutes had passed when the door finally clicked open and they all jumped out of their seats when the doctor reappeared.

"Is, is she ok?" Darien's voice trembled.

"Serena is fine though I don't entirely know what happened to her, it seems she went into shock which caused her to collapse."

Darien's rapidly pounding heart slowed down but hearing she went into shock made it speed up again.

"Can we see her?" Asked Mina, leaning forward.

"She is sleeping right now but yes you may see her."

Darien and the girls walked into the brightly lit room where they saw Serena's sleeping figure. The girls stared in amazement as to how beautiful and elegant their princess looked. Which was a rare sight considering Serena is always stuffing food into her mouth and acted very unladylike. Darien took a seat next to her, one hand held hers and the other was stroking her frail face. He frowned in worry, her face was a deathly pale, her hand was limp and her buns were in disarray. But when he looked at the young blonde he felt nothing but love for her.

The girls were smiling with relief before they became serious again and their smiles faded.

"What do you think happened to her?" Asked Lita, wanting everyone's opinion.

A big discussion began with possibilities being thrown across the room left, right and centre, some quite silly which to no one's surprise came out Mina's mouth. In fact, they were so loud that if Darien wasn't so caught up in a daze he would have yelled at them to shut up.

"Ahem." Luna cleared her throat. "Girls please quiet down, the only way we can know for sure what happened to Serena is to wait till she wakes up."

The girls turned to look at their princess and took a deep breath in and out, letting out a rather large collective sigh.

"Hey, Mina pass me Serena's phone I'm going to call her mum and tell her what's going on." Said Raye, holding her hand out to Mina.

"Kay!" Mina reached over to Serena's school case and pulled out her phone. Walking over to Raye with the phone Mina tripped on the strap of Serena's bag and fell face-first on the floor.

"Eek!" Exclaimed Mina, Lita bent over and helped her get on her feet. "Argh, ouch."

"Geez Mina, you got two left feet or what?" Chuckled Lita.

"Oh, hardy har." Laughed Mina sarcastically as she handed over Serena's phone.

Raye began to fiddle with the phone looking for her mum's number as she walked outside. About a minute later Raye came back in the room.

"Her mum said she will be on her way over after she picks up Sammy."

"Hey girls." Whispered Lita, as she nodded her head in Darien's direction. "Why don't we give them some time alone."

Everyone nodded in agreement, they walked outside and closed the door quietly.

When the door clicked shut Darien snapped out of his daze and realised that the girls had left.

He looked at his watch, they have been there for almost an hour but he didn't care. He knew that he couldn't leave her side until she woke up.

The period of time after that for Darien was difficult to recall, his memories were hazy, he remembered Serena's mother and brother visiting briefly but that's it.

Laying on Serena's lap, Darien still clung her hand when he felt her move. His head shot up like a rocket, Darien glanced around before looking back down at her with nervous eyes, he brushed the loose strands of golden hair out of her face hoping to see her beautiful eyes once again. Serena groaned and fidgeted around before her eyes opened, Darien smiled with relief as her deep blue orbs looked up at him.

Serena tried to lean forward to help herself up but had trouble doing so.

"Serena." Darien breathed softly as he helped her sit up.

The blonde brought her hand to her head and grunted in pain.

"Are you okay Serena, do you have a headache?" Asked Darien as he placed his hand on hers.

"Yeah but that's not the worst part." Serena paused and grabbed her stomach. "I'm starving!"

Darien looked down, shook his head and chuckled. He was glad that Serena was acting like herself.

"When you get out of hospital I will treat you to something, sound good?" He knew that he would regret it later but again he didn't care, all that mattered was Serena.

"Really!? Thank you, Darien!" Squealed Serena as she threw her arms around him.

Just then there was a knock on the door.

"Come in!" Yelled Serena, wondering who it was.

The door opened, a young pink-haired girl walked in and smiled sweetly at the two in the room, Serena and Darien frowned.

"Rini?!"

Next time on Sailor Moon Solar Eclipse:

"Rini, what are you doing here?" Asked Serena, as the many questions were circling around in her head.

X

"Rini," Serena spoke softly as she smoothed over the loose pink hairs that stuck up on her head. "Tell me everything."

X

Serena and Darien looked at each other, filled with utter shock.

Rini began to cry again, Serena held her trying to wrap her head around all of this.

All Serena could think about was, why? Why did she send Rini back to this time? What was happening in the future and why?

Oh why, why, WHY?! She didn't understand any of this.

It just doesn't make any sense...
