Chapter 3:
Deception
I am soooo sorry for not updating lately. I have been really busy with school and things that are going on at home. My mom is getting married in June so it's hectic around here with the where is it going to be, getting the dresses, and stuff like that. Last weekend was my great grandma's birthday, so I had to go to Iowa to visit her in the nursing home…I don't think she'll live much longer, which is really sad because I was closest to her then my other great grandma's. Also my computer has been a big pain in the ass lately. It's a little better now but it still sucks. I'll try to update my other stories as fast as I can. Anyways, on with the story.

Serna's eyes fluttered open when the sunlight shone into them from the open curtains. She stretched then sat up in bed rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. When her eyes finally focused, she looked over at her sister's bed to find the dark blue blankets already made and her sister nowhere in sight. Serena swung her legs over the side of the bed, glancing at the alarm clock. 'Eight in the morning. Sybil must of let me sleep in since it's Saturday.' She thought walking into the bathroom to take a shower. She came out ten minutes later and went back into her room to change. After she changed she skipped down the stairs. When she walked into the kitchen she found her father reading the paper, her littler brother still in his pajamas eating a bowl of cereal, and her mother and Sybil making breakfast.
"Good morning Serena. Did you sleep well?" Irene asked as she set down a plate in front of her husband.
"I slept wonderfully." Serena said sitting down at the table in between her brother and the empty seat for Sybil. She smiled at Sybil when she gave her a plate of food. She grabbed her fork and started eating.
"So, how was your date last night?" her mom asked after sitting down at the table in-between Ken and Sammy. Serena looked up at her, swallowing the food in her mouth.
"It was good." She said to her mother then went back to eating her breakfast. She could see Sybil glancing at her out the corner of her eyes.
"Oh. That's good." Their mother responded. Serena looked up at her mother and smiled, then quickly finished her breakfast. She stood up and placed her dishes in the sink.
"I'm going out. I'll wait outside for you Sybil." Serena said slipping her shoes on and walking out the front door. She sat down on the steps and waited for Sybil. A minute later Sybil walked out of the house and stood beside her sister.
"Why did you rush out of there so quickly?" Sybil asked, with no emotions in her voice.
"Sybil…am I a bad person if I don't love the person I am destined to be with?" Serna whispered hugging her legs and placing her head in her arms. Sybil looked at her.
"Of course not Serena. Always remember what I told you yesterday. Follow your heart. Your heart will get you far and you'll be happy in the end." Sybil said sitting down next to her twin.
"What does your heart tell you?" Serena questioned, turning her head towards her. A thoughtful look graced Sybil's face and looked out towards the road.
"You really want to know?"
"Yes. Please tell me. I would like to know what my sister's heart tells her."
"My heart tells me that the inners and Darien can not be trusted. My heart tells me that this is not out true destiny, to stay here, but that our true destiny is back home waiting for us. My heart is telling me that we should go home. What is your heart telling you?" Sybil said turning to look at Serena, who was staring down at the ground.
"My heart is telling me that Darien isn't my true love and that some thing bad is going to happen today."
"Come on. Let's head over to the temple. For once we'll be early and we can figure out what the others talk about when we're not there." Sybil said standing up. Serena stood up and the two stared walking to Raye's temple. The twins walked up the many temple stairs and quietly walked over to the door of Raye's room. Serena reached he hand out to open the door but was stopped by Sybil who shook her head and put her finger to her mouth telling Serena to be quiet. The two stood quietly outside the door listening in on the inner's conversation.

"So what's out plan on getting rid of those two?" Mina asked munching on a cookie that Lita brought.
"We could attack them after they get here. They'll never know what hit them." Amy suggests.
"That sounds like a good plan." Lita said watching Raye and Darien cuddling up with each other.
"Mina stop eating so many cookies. You'll end up fat." Raye said with narrowed eyes watching Mina plop another cookie into her mouth. Mina blushed and put the cookie down.
"Now, now love. No need to be mean. Save that anger for you're enemies." Darien cooed a t Raye, who looked up at him smirking.
"When you attack them don't forget to grab the Imperial Silver Crystal from Serena. D o what ever you want to those two but just make sure that you get that crystal. It's the only way Raye and Darien will be able to rule as Queen and King of Earth." Artemis said gaining the girls and Darien's attention. They nodded their heads. "Now you two get out of each other's arms. Serna and Sybil will be here any time now." Raye reluctantly climb out of Darien's arms and they all tried to act normal.

Serena looked over at Sybil with tears in her eyes. Sybil put a hand on Serena's back and guided her away from the door so they could talk without the others hearing them and knowing they're there.
"How could they?" Serena asked silently, her head bent down.
"Serena. What should we do? If we walk in there they'll attack us. It would be five to two, we wont be able to make it. What is your heart telling you to do now, cause mine's telling me we're in trouble." Sybil asked, her voice slightly panicky. Serena lifted her head up and looked Sybil in the eyes. Both looking unsure of what to do.

Thanks for waiting so long for me to get this chapter out. I made a slight mistake in earlier chapter. I said that they'd have the meeting after school, but I changed my mind and made it Saturday with no school. Please review and tell me what you think.
Oh and I changed my email address to psychoshinotenshi@yahoo.com just to let you know.
For couples I was thinking maybe:
Trowa/Quatre
Serena/ Wufei or Heero
Sybil/ Wufei or Heero
Hotaru/ Duo
Trista/ Milliardo (sp?)
Amara/ Michelle
Tell me what you think.
Thanks, Moonluna
