Sailor Moon and her friends during high school crossover with Cardcaptor Sakura
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailor Moon or Cardcaptor Sakura but I do have a lot of original characters. Some are borrowed from other animes/cartoons.
In Serena's room, the five girls were sleeping peacefully until they were woken by screams coming from downstairs.
Lita was the first to wake. "What in the world…!"
They headed downstairs and the next thing they heard was Sammy laughing.
"Okay, what's going on here?" Raye demanded.
"Sammy put a fake bug in our cereals!" Rini replied. "Stop laughing Sammy! It's not funny!"
Hotaru sighed as she said, "Serena, I'm sorry you have him as your brother."
Everyone except Sammy laughed. "Hey, what's that supposed to mean?!"
Serena ignored Sammy and started talking with Hotaru and Rini. "When you two are done eating, come upstairs okay?"
"Okay."
Back at Darien's apartment, Darien got ready as soon as he awoke and called for his generals. "Jedite, Neflite, Malachite, Zoycite, appear!"
The four generals appeared and kneeled with their heads bowed. "Prince Darien."
("Do you think that he found out and is mad because of what we did?") Zoycite sounded worried.
("Why would he be mad? We did nothing wrong.") Malachite responded.
"I heard what you did with the Sailor Scouts."
"Please don't be mad, Prince Darien." Zoycite stood. We were just trying to help the Sailor Scouts get your memories back."
"Dear Zoycite, why would I be mad? You were all just trying to help me regain my memories and for that I would like to thank you," he smiled.
"No, we should be the ones thanking you." Jedite was the next to stand. Then Malachite and Neflite arose.
"Jedite's right. It has been a pleasure to be serving you and the princess," Neflite said.
He smiled again. "You may take your leave now. Till next time."
"Goodbye, Prince Darien." They bowed and left.
As soon as Malachite, Jedite, Neflite and Zoycite left, Darien turned around. "Who's there? Show yourself!" he shouted.
"So you're a prince? And you can sense me now?" The owner of the voice chuckled.
Darien knew the voice but he thought it was impossible because he was supposed to be dead.
"You've gotten stronger too. It's been a long time, Darien." The stranger appeared in front of him, grinning.
He still didn't believe it even with the evidence in front of him. "Fiory? But I thought…?"
(Fiory was an alien who came to Earth as a child and Darien befriended. Then after a while, he had to leave but promised to come back which he did.
But that was after Darien was all grown up and forgotten about him because he thought he was someone he thought up to ease the pain of his childhood. Darien was happy with his life and friends and Serena. Fiory came back in human form which he didn't recognize and also because it had been years since he seen or thought of his friend Fiory.
By then, Fiory was being manipulated by the Kassenian Blossom who wanted to take over the earth with her plants. She made Fiory think that he and Darien will never be good friends again because the Sailor Scouts had "brainwashed" him so she made him attack the Sailor Scouts but Tuxedo Mask was hurt instead.
So Fiory took the injured Darien to a planet in space covered in Kassenian's flowers. He was going to keep him there forever and no one can take him away.
The Sailor Scouts teleported to the planet to rescue Tuxedo Mask and bring him home but they ran into more monsters. Then the scouts were captured but not before they could move Sailor Moon out of the way.
Kassenian had Fiory under her complete control by then and would have almost gotten rid of Sailor Moon if Tuxedo Mask hadn't escaped and saved her from the Kassenian controlled Fiory.
So Sailor Moon ended up defeating the Kassenian Blossom and saved Fiory from Kassenian's wrath with her crystal which cost her life. It reformed when Darien kissed her but it was Fiory's "flower of life" that brought her back.
He came to Darien in his mind and told him to give Sailor Moon the flower. After her crystal was reformed, Fiory was floating out into space in a little ball covering him. Watch Sailor Moon R Promise of the Rose to know the actual story of Fiory.)
"Yeah, so did I. My memory's still a bit fuzzy on what happened after the fight, but here I am. But I don't know how long after, I landed on a planet of aliens like me and those people became my family since I still had no idea of my actual family."
"Oh man. The girls aren't going to believe this." He started laughing. ("Serena, I'm coming over with an old friend. You'll see who it is when we get there and are you girls going to be surprised.")
("Okay, I'll have Amara, Michelle and Trista come over to my house.")
"Everyone's going to be at Serena's house so let's head over there," Darien told Fiory. "You remember Serena, my girlfriend? She and all of her friends, the other scouts are going to be there."
"Are you sure it's okay for me to go there after what happened with me and the Kassenian Blossom?" He was unsure of what might happen if they see him.
"You'll be fine. We all know that you turned good after. Serena saved you from Kassenian's wrath and you wouldn't be here if it wasn't for her."
"Yeah, I know. Remind me to thank her when I see her."
"Do you still have your…?"
Fiory transformed into his human form and grinned.
"Never mind." Darien was laughing since Fiory changed into his human form before he even said anything. "Serena's house is nearby so do you just want to walk? Or we could take my car," he asked as they were leaving the apartment.
He just shrugged. "I'll leave that up to you. It's not like I'll know where to go."
Outside Darien's apartment complex, Andrew, a friend of Darien's and an employee of the Crown Arcade in town, sees Darien coming out with another person and calls out to him. "Hey Darien."
"Oh hey, Andrew, this is my childhood friend, Fiory. Fiory, this is Andrew. He works at the arcade store in town."
"Hi. It's nice to meet you, Andrew."
"It's nice to meet you too, Fiory. Were you guys headed somewhere?"
"Actually, we were headed to his girlfriend, Serena's, house."
"Oh, you know Serena and her friends too?"
Yeah, you can say that. Do you want to come along if it's okay with Serena?"
"The girls would be glad to see him. Half of them are always at the arcade anyways though I have no idea why," Darien laughed. "No offense, but your games aren't that great."
"Yeah, I know," he laughed. "The Sailor V game's the only one worth playing, honestly. Amara and Mina are always playing the racing game against each other."
"Those two never get tired of that game though Mina will never win against Amara. She's one tough person to beat."
"Now that I think about it, they haven't been there in a while, especially Serena. What have they been doing these days?"
"They're just busy with school. Some of them are still in high school, you know. Serena's doing better with school now, thankfully."
"It's been a long time since I saw them all. Is it still the 6 of you: Serena, her four friends, the little girl, and you?"
"No, there are four more of us since you last saw them."
"Are they all…?"
"Yeah."
"So you knew them back when Rini was younger?"
"Who's Rini? I met them a few times but we never really exchanged names. Never got the chance." ("We were too busy fighting each other.")
"Oh? How come?"
"There were…reasons. Sorry, I'm not comfortable talking about it."
"No problem. I won't push then," Andrew smiled. "Rini is actually the little girl you were just talking about. We'll introduce you to them when we get to Serena's."
"Thanks," Fiory smiled back. ("Wow, this guy is really nice. He must be really close with you and the girls.")
("Yeah, we're all pretty close but he doesn't know our secret so we try to be careful. Rini ended up as a scout too.") One of the four is Rini's age but the others are all older than the other girls.
"I can't wait…" he groaned.
"Don't worry. They're all nice."
"Amara's one of the four you don't know about," Darien added.
("Do the other four know about me?")
("Actually, we never got around to telling them for some reason.")
At the Tsukino house, Serena heard the bell ring. "Coming!" She opens the door and sees Amara, Michelle, and Trista. "Hey guys."
"Hey Moonface."
Hearing Amara's voice, Hotaru and Rini got up from the breakfast table and ran over to the door knowing Michelle and Trista would be with Amara.
"Hi Hotaru. Were you a good girl for Mr. and Mrs. Tsukino?" Trista asked.
"She wasn't the problem," Serena said as she sighed.
"Was it Rini then?" Michelle wondered.
"Nope, it wasn't me, it was Sammy."
Amara started laughing. "What did the kid do now?"
Rini was pouting as she explained to them what he did.
"Is Darien here with his friend yet?"
"They're on their way over from his apartment."
"You're really curious about his friend aren't you, Michelle?" Amara teased.
"Knowing Darien, he'll probably walk over. Are the others ready?" Trista asked.
Amy came downstairs. "Hey, what's going on? Did you come to pick Hotaru up already?"
"Actually, Darien's coming over with an old friend of his so I told them to come. I just told the others. Let's go wait in my room."
In Serena's room, Mina and Lita were both in their own worlds.
("I wonder what if would be like if Fiory was still alive,") Mina thought.
("I wonder how Andrew's doing.") Lita has always had a crush on Andrew but then he got a girlfriend, Rita, but now they were broken up.
"Hello, earth to Mina and Lita," Serena said as she waved her hand in front of their faces.
"Huh? Sorry," Lita apologized. "I was thinking of something."
"You too?" Mina asked.
"What is it? Tell us!" Hotaru exclaimed.
Blushing, Lita replied, "Um, I rather not talk about it."
"Mina, why don't you tell us what you were thinking about?" Michelle asked.
("This is getting interesting. The guys are so into this conversation. Both Mina and Lita don't even realize that we have guests.") Raye didn't bother telling them that Darien had come with his friends while they were daydreaming.
"He's someone from our past, someone you four don't know."
"The only guy from our past that they don't know is…"
"OH MY GOD, Mina!" Amy, Lita, Raye and Serena were all shocked.
She started blushing. "I wish things ended differently though. Darien hasn't heard from him, has he?"
Fiory then moved into Mina's view. "Hey, Mina," he said, grinning.
She blinked a couple time to make sure what she was seeing was real then screamed. "Fiory! You're…you're…" Even though she was really surprised to see him, she was even more surprised that he was in front of her, alive.
Both Lita and Mina finally realized that Darien's friend was Fiory and that Andrew had come too.
"Hi girls, been a while. Hey, Lita." Andrew smiled at her.
Her heart started beating faster seeing him smile. "Andrew? What're you doing here? When did you guys get here?"
"He was actually coming to see me when he saw Fiory and me were leaving my apartment complex."
"They got here right before Mina said she was thinking about you who you know," Amy explained.
"What? You heard me?" She started turning red from embarrassment.
Andrew started grinning. "So it was you she was talking about."
"Yup." Inside, Fiory was glad that she was thinking about him because he was thinking about her also. "So how about we go to a movie sometime?" He seemed pretty straightforward about how he felt about her.
"Don't you think you're going a bit fast?" Amara started laughing.
Fiory glared at Amara. "What's it to you?" He was thinking, "Who is this guy? Does he have a thing for Mina?"
"Amara!" Michelle shook her head in disapproval. It was obvious to her that she was just messing with him. "Don't listen to her, Fiory. She's just messing with you. I'm Michelle by the way."
("That's Amara?") He raised his eyebrows at Darien.
All he could do was laugh. ("Yeah, Amara's a girl.")
"Hi, nice to meet you, Fiory, I'm Trista and this little girl is Hotaru."
"Hi!" Hotaru greeted him a big smile.
"Go ahead and answer him, Mina. He won't bite," Darien nudged.
With that, she didn't hesitate to answer him back. "Yeah, I'd like that."
"What about you, Lita? Will you tell us what were you thinking about?"
Yeah, please?" Rini and Hotaru begged.
"I'll tell the girls, but not the guys. You two are leaving too," she told the kids.
"You kids heard her. Out!" Serena pointed at the door for the kids to leave.
"Aww…" They hung their heads low as they headed out the door.
"Come on kiddos. Let's go downstairs. You'll call for us when you girls are done talking, right?" Andrew asked.
"Yeah, yeah, sure, whatever. Just go out already!" Raye really wanted them out of the room so they can have Lita reveal her secret.
As soon as the guys and Hotaru and Rini left the room, Serena made no was still lurking around then locked the door. "Okay, now spill! Who is it?"
"It's Andrew," she blushed. "I heard from Elizabeth that he hasn't gone out with anyone since he and Rita broke up."
"You know I have to tell Darien, right? Besides, he might be able to help. The two are good friends after all."
"I'm actually kind of glad that Fiory heard me or I would have chickened out telling him how I felt about him."
Downstairs, Andrew was still curious about what Lita was thinking about. "Hey, what do you think Lita was thinking about?"
("You girls almost done?") "Why so curious?"
"What, I can't be just curious about what a friend was talking about?"
Darien was suspicious of Andrew because he sounded defensive.
("Hey Darien, ask Andrew if he likes anyone when you all come back in.")
"They'll probably tell us when they want to," Fiory answered.
"I'm going up. I don't care if…" Rini started.
"You can come up now!" Raye's voiced called from upstairs.
Once the guys and Rini and Hotaru went back inside Serena's room, Amara took Darien to the side.
"What's up?" he asked.
"You remember what I asked you?"
"We need you to find out for Lita," Mina added.
"Sure, give me a minute." He went back to the guys and the kids. "Hey kiddos, I need to talk to Andrew and Fiory so how about you go bug Sammy?"
Rini grinned big. "Okay! Oh Sammy!~" she yelled as she and Hotaru started going downstairs.
Serena started laughing right away because she knew what was coming.
Sammy knew there was going to be trouble coming and there was nowhere for him to go since he was downstairs and his room was upstairs. He was trapped.
"Sammy, let's play hide and seek!" Hotaru said excitingly as she arrived downstairs.
"Why would I play with you two?"
Everyone could tell that Sammy was really annoyed.
"Just humor them, Sammy," his mother said. "They must have been bored up there with all of Serena's friends."
"If you play with them, they might be nicer to you in the future," his dad further said.
("Yeah right,") they thought while trying to contain their laughter. "Pleeeeease?".
Seeing that he had no choice, he just grunted and started a game of 'hide and seek' with them.
Back in Serena's room, Darien slowly started to bring up relationships to warm Andrew up to asking about Serena's request. "Hey Andrew, since we're talking about relationships, it got me thinking. Are you seeing anyone at the moment?"
"No, why?"
"Is there anyone you're interested in?"
"Did Serena put you up to this?" he asked as he looked at Serena suspiciously.
Serena figured that Darien was asking Andrew about her request when he looked at her and just looked like she had no idea what was going on.
"Can't he just be curious?" Fiory asked.
"I heard that you haven't seen anyone since you and Rita broke up."
He sighed and chuckled at the same time. "I might as well tell you since you're both this persistent."
Both Fiory and Darien were looking at him, waiting for his answer.
"It's Lita, but I don't know if she'll go out with me. After Rita and I broke up, Lita was there for me. It was hard but thanks to her, I was able to get through it."
"Then ask her. Just make sure you want to ask her out because you like her, not because you think you owe her."
"You really think I should? I actually do have feelings for her so you don't have to worry about that."
"Well you won't know unless you actually ask." Fiory grinned as he slapped Andrew on the back. "Good luck." As Andrew was going towards the girls, Fiory asked Darien, "Lita, she likes him back, I'm guessing, since you told him to ask her?"
"What do you think?" he responded with a grin.
"Lita, can I talk to you alone for a second?"
"Yeah, sure."
Then Andrew took Lita aside. He didn't want any extra attention or anyone interrupting him when he wanted to ask her out.
"Well?" the girls asked when Darien and Fiory came over to them.
"Just wait and see," they both said.
Then, Darien had started introducing the rest of the girls to Fiory.
Lita was starting to feel nervous. She wasn't sure what was going to happen. "What's up?"
Truth be told, Andrew was feeling nervous too. He wasn't sure how she would answer. "Well, I was wondering if you'd like to go on a date."
"With you?" To herself, she was thinking, "Please don't let this be a joke. I don't know what I would do if it was. He better not be trying to set me up with someone…"
"Mhmm. That is unless you don't want to."
"No, I do, it's just that I was surprised. Yeah, I'll go out with you," she replied, trying to not sound too eager.
"Great! When are you free?"
"She's free right now," Serena said as she pushed her friend closer to Andrew.
Andrew was just looking at her like he was saying, "I knew you had something to do with this."
Serena just smiled and said, "You're welcome."
"Go ahead. We'll call you if anything comes up." Amy wanted her to have fun.
"Do you want to double date with us? Fiory doesn't mind."
"It's up to you, Lita. I'm up for anything you are."
Looking at Mina, Lita smiled. "Well if you're okay with it then, sure." ("Thanks, Mina.")
Mina smiled back. ("I had a feeling you could use a friend.")
"Then shall we? You guys are going to have to lead the way because I don't know anything around here."
"Where did you say you were from?"
"I'm…" Fiory started to say.
"Have fun on your dates you guys!" Raye was all but pushing the four out the door. After they left, she sighed in relief. "Phew, that was close."
"What do you mean?" Trista asked.
"Fiory is actually an alien. When I was a kid, I was in a car accident and I had no memories of who I was or my parents so I was to stay in the hospital until I got better. I found Fiory outside, in the rain, nearly passed out. He was a kid back then but he was also my first friend. We became really close friends. But one day, he told me that he had to leave so I got really sad and ended up crying. That same day, Serena saw me crying in my hospital room so she came in and put her head on my lap. I asked her who she was and she introduced herself.
Everyone just laughed. They were able to imagine a kid Serena introducing herself to him.
"We're not done with the story yet. I asked him why he was crying and he told me that his only friend, Fiory, was leaving and he was never going to see him again. So I told him that I would be his friend too. In my hand were roses because my mom just gave birth to Sammy that day so I gave one to Darien as a token of our friendship."
"Then I gave it to Fiory before he left. He promised to return with the perfect flower. Him coming back is another story."
"Are we going to go somewhere or are we going to just stay here?" Rini was starting to get bored since there was nothing interesting going on anymore.
"I'm just worried that something might happen while they're there. With Andrew, they won't be able to transform," Michelle said with a frown.
"They'll be fine. Lita and Mina know to contact us if there's any trouble."
Andrew, Fiory, Lita and Mina had decided to go the movies after leaving Serena's.
The four had arrived at the theater and saw that there wasn't a long line so they were glad.
"Huh… The Sailor Moon movie's the only one that fits our time unless you girls want to watch something that has already started," Andrew pointed out.
("Greaaaaat, a Sailor Moon movie…") "I don't mind if Lita doesn't."
("How is it that there's nothing else to watch? It's my first date with Andrew and it's while watching a Sailor Moon movie.") "Let's just watch the Sailor Moon movie. If we watch something that's already started, we would just be wasting money.
"Okay, then Mina and I will pay for the tickets and you two can pay for the snacks."
("Do you have any money Fiory?") Mina was surprised because he had just come back to Earth today.
("Yeah, Darien gave me some money before we left in case I needed any.")
"That's fine," Andrew said as he started walking over to the Sailor Moon movie cutout. He called Lita over to him. "Do you know which scout reminds me of you?"
"Which one?" She was curious of his answer.
Pointing to Sailor Jupiter, he said, "Her. She's tough and strong, like you."
At the ticket booth, Mina and Fiory finished paying for the tickets. She was about to call for Lita until she saw what Andrew was pointing to. "Fiory…"
He nodded. "Hey, let's head inside. We got the tickets. Mina, why don't you and Lita go find us some seats?"
"But the snacks…" Lita started to protest.
"Mina said that she had to talk to you about something."
"It's okay. I'll pay for them."
"Are you sure, Andrew? I have no problem with paying for the snacks together."
"No, I'll pitch in so he doesn't have to pay full," offered FIory.
"Yeah, go talk find us some seats and talk with Mina." He actually wanted to be alone with Lita but Mina looked like she was about to explode if she didn't talk to her soon. After handing Mina and Lita their tickets, he ushered them inside.
"Thanks, Andrew." (Thanks Fiory.)
After going inside, they headed towards the usher who they handed their tickets to. He ripped his half and then told them to head to Theater 10 which was showing their movie.
So they headed to Theater 10 and found four seats in the middle towards the back. As they were sitting down, Mina asked, "What were you and Andrew talking about? Fiory and I saw him pointing Sailor Jupiter on the movie cutout."
"He said that she reminds him of me."
"Did he say how?"
"We're both tough and strong."
"Wow, he's pretty sharp for an arcade owner."
"Yeah, he is, for an arcade owner," Lita laughed.
"What about me?"
"How do you know they're talking about you?" ("Are you talking about him?")
"Well I'm the only arcade owner around here, so it has to be about me," he said as he was and Fiory were sitting down.
"We just got two popcorns so we can share but four separate drinks. Andrew picked your drink, Mina, because I didn't know what you would like and Lita, Andrew got your favorite drink: Sweet Tea."
"Thanks," Lita and Mina said at the same time. They both laughed.
("Yeah, we are.") "It could be someone from where we had previously lived," Lita grinned.
"But it's not, is it?" he grinned back.
In front of them, there were a couple girls who looked like they could be around the same age as Mina and Lita. They had turned around to shush them.
The four had just chuckled before quieting down and watching the commercials start after the lights had dimmed.
Two and a half hours later the movie was over and everyone started leaving the theater room.
("What a horrible movie! I'm offended.") "That movie was pretty good," Mina thought out loud.
("You guys saw a movie? Which one?") Rini asked.
("It was the Sailor Moon movie wasn't it? If it wasn't, you wouldn't be offended.")
("Good guess, Amara.")
"Mhmm, yeah, I guess. I don't think that they were portrayed correctly though. But what's the deal with Tuxedo Mask? All those girls that were screaming, every time he came out, were really loud."
"Don't forget annoying," Fiory added as he rolled his eyes. ("Andrew's jealous of you, Darien.")
("What do you mean he's jealous of me? Why would he be jealous of me?")
"I like you better than Tuxedo Mask," Lita said with a smile.
("Andrew, jealous of Darien? No way.")
("Actually, he's jealous of Tuxedo Mask. There were girls in the theater who were constantly screaming whenever he showed up in the movie.")
While still inside the theater, Andrew, Fiory, Lita and Mina saw people screaming and running away from something.
"What's going on out there? It's chaos out there."
("Girls, I think we have trouble.") Mina alerted.
("What is it?") Raye asked.
("We're not sure yet.") "Mina, let's go check it out." Lita and Mina ran out the doors to see what was going on outside. She completely forgot that Andrew was with her when they ran out.
"Lita!" Freaking out, he chased after them.
Fiory followed but in a slower pace. ("We need separate.")
("How can we do that when Andrew's with us?")
("You guys go first. I'll get him away and then try to separate from him.") "Andrew, we have to go someplace safe!"
"Why did you just go out like that? You almost gave me a heart attack!"
"I'm sorry, Andrew, but I wasn't in any danger."
"But you could have been!"
"Fiory and Mina went to go find safe place to hide. We better find a place too."
"And I'm sorry I freaked out. Follow me. I know a place we can go." He grabbed Lita's hand and starting running with the crowd of people who were also running.
Slowly, Lita started to loosen her grip on Andrew's hand. ("I'm sorry again, Andrew.") She got away from the crowd and found an empty place so she could transform.
The moment he couldn't feel Lita's hand in his, he stopped and yelled out her name over and over. "Lita? Lita!" ("Where is she? Please let her be okay.") he prayed while searching for her.
"Come out, Sailor Scouts! We're going to keep terrorizing the city until you come out!" a familiar voice called out.
("Do you need us to come and help?") Darien asked.
("I'm headed to where the trouble is with Fiory.") Sailor Venus replied.
("I'll be right there. I just need to transform.") Lita responded. She looked around to make sure no one was around.
From afar, Andrew spotted Lita. "Lita!" He started to go to her. "Lita!" he called out louder. At first he thought that she couldn't hear him but then he saw her transform. He couldn't believe what he just saw. ("Lita is Sailor Jupiter?")
Sailor Jupiter headed over to where Sailor Venus and Fiory were at. "Who are you?!" she yelled out.
The owner of the voice jumped down from the building in front with two others.
("Hey Jupiter, wasn't he one of Badiyanu's fairies?")
("Yeah…")
Sailor Venus and Sailor Jupiter were both confused because they were destroyed by Sailor Uranus and Sailor Mars.
"What are you doing here?! We destroyed you guys!" Venus stated.
"If you guys came to get your butts kicked again..." Jupiter started.
"We want your help!" Orangja blurted out.
"She's back!" Pananu added.
"Who's back?" Fiory was confused. ("Who are these guys?")
("We'll explain later.") Sailor Venus answered.
"Badiyanu!" Popupulan answered.
"What?! Impossible!" Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Venus both exclaimed.
("Are you all okay? You two seem kind of quiet.") Serena
Sailor Jupiter opened her communicator and contacted the other girls. "Mercury, are you with the others?"
"Do you need backup?" Amy asked.
"No, I don't think so," Venus replied. "But listen. According to Badiyanu's fairies, Badiyanu's back."
Everyone but Darien gasped. "Who's Badiyanu?" he asked.
"She was the one who hired those fairies to kidnap children from all over the world." ("But that can't be possible! I destroyed her along with the Black Dream Hole!")
"There's no way they can still be alive. My magic mirror made them powerless and they were destroyed when we destroyed their flutes."
Populan heard what Michelle and said, "Well we're here aren't we? And we don't have our flutes anymore."
Pananu sounded frantic. "Help us hide from Badiyanu! We want to be free!"
("Fiory, I need you to teleport something. It's for the fairies.")
"Got it. Thanks, Mercury." Then he handed what he teleported to Sailor Jupiter. "Here, you give it to them."
"Catch!" She threw something at the fairies.
The fairies looked confused
"What is this? How is this supposed to help us hide from Badiyanu?" Populan demanded.
"They're cloaking devices. Badiyanu won't be able to find or sense you three with those. Lose them and she'll find you." ("I knew they would come in handy someday.")
("Good job, Amy.")
The three fairies bowed to Sailor Jupiter, Sailor Venus, and Fiory. "Thank you, Sailor Scouts." And like that, they disappeared.
"Good riddance. The whole town freak out."
"It wasn't as bad as some other days. Well I better go find Andrew. He must be freaking out too."
"You ditched him? Oh man, poor Andrew."
"This isn't funny, Darien. It's not like she had a choice. Don't worry; we'll help look for him." Venus put her hand on Jupiter's shoulder to let her know that she was there for her.
Nearby, Andrew was watching Sailor Jupiter and her friends in a safe spot where he wouldn't be seen. Then he saw them change back into their Earth forms. ("Mina and Fiory too?")
"Good luck finding him."
"Thanks, Serena. I just hope he's not too mad."
"I'm not mad, Lita. Or should I say Sailor Jupiter?" Andrew said as he came out of hiding spot.
Everyone gasped.
("Oh great, just what we needed.")
("Not helping, Raye!") everyone shouted back.
"Bring him to our place. Better to talk there than like this." Amara spoke up.
At Amara, Michelle and Trista's house, everyone was together.
("So, he found out the secret.") Luna was thinking.
("I'm actually not that surprised.") Artemis replied.
("What's going to happen to him?") Diana was very curious to see what would happen since this never happened before.
("It's up to the highnesses.") her parents answered.
Trista was the first to speak. "Have a seat, Andrew."
As he was sitting down, he was only looking at Lita. "Lita, I'm really not mad. I can understand why you couldn't tell me." He wanted her to see that he really wasn't mad but she wouldn't look at him.
"I was thinking that he was bound to find out one day but not this quickly." Darien ran his hand through his hair.
"Mama is he going to…?"
Serena, Amy, Raye, Lita, and Mina (the five) shouted, "Rini!"
"Am I going to what and who was Rini calling Mama?" He had so many questions now that he knew the truth.
Darien and Serena transformed to their royal forms.
The girls all knelt before Prince Darien and Princess Serenity. "Welcome back Your Highnesses."
Luna, Artemis, and Diana bowed.
"Thank you girls. Rini, have you been a good girl for Serena?"
"Hi Mama, Daddy. I've been a good girl for everyone, especially Serena."
"She really is doing well, Princess. Small Lady is learning the ways of the scout really quickly." Trista was the only one who called Rini Small Lady.
"Princess Lita, the reason we're here…" Prince Darien started.
("Princess Lita?") "Your Highnesses, I…" he stood up.
"Andrew, we are aware of who you are." Princess Serenity smiled. "You make Princess Lita very happy. She really cares about you."
"Lita also makes me very happy. I care about her too and I promise to keep her and their secret safe."
"Darien and Serena seems to like you too."
"We all like him, Prince Darien. Andrew is a good guy."
"Do you trust him to keep our secret?"
"Yes, Your Highnesses."
"Then Andrew, we'll be watching. Since they trust you, we'll trust you too. Rini, keep being good to Serena, okay? She can decide not to have you in the future," Prince Darien chuckled.
"Don't tease our daughter. Your father is such a tease, isn't he, Rini?" She smiled at Rini and the girls. "Goodbye Rini, everyone. We'll see you again. Luna, Artemis, Diana, watch over the girls."
"With our lives. Goodbye, Your Highnesses."
"Goodbye," everyone else greeted.
Darien and Serena changed back.
"Wow."
Everyone faced Andrew again. What he just went through, they thought that he would be in shock, but he was still standing.
"So, do you want us to tell you which scout we are or do you want try to guess?" Amara grinned
"Can I try to guess?"
"He's pretty smart for works at the arcade, right Lita?" Mina grinned at Lita.
"We'll see," Michelle smiled.
"Amy is Mercury, Rini is Mini Moon, Hotaru is Saturn, Amara is Uranus, Michelle is Neptune, Trista is Pluto, Serena's Sailor Moon, Raye is Sailor Mars. I can see it clearly now that I know this secret. But I'm not sure where Darien "
("He is good.") "I'm Tuxedo Mask."
Since Andrew guessed just about everyone, correctly, they all clapped.
"Not bad, for someone who works in an arcade." Amara grinned.
"Andrew, I have a question for you," Luna spoke up.
"Uh, well, okay."
"Hi, nice to meet you, Andrew. I heard a lot about you."
"Oh you did, did you?" He chuckled at Diana's remark. "Who was talking about me behind my back?|
"It's not just one person I hear about you from. I hear about you from…"
"Diana!" the five exclaimed.
"Is it something I'm not supposed to know?"
"Luna, control your daughter better."
"Speak for yourself, Serena."
"She's doing a fine job, thank you very much."
Everyone laughed at Rini's comeback at Raye.
"Come along Diana. Time for you to go home. We're sorry about Diana." Artemis left the house with Luna and Diana.
"Rini, we should get you home too. It's almost your bedtime."
"But Daddy…"
"Listen to her whine Darien. We should make her bedtime earlier. Don't you think so?"
"No! Please don't make my bedtime earlier, Mama. I promise I'll go to bed when we get home."
"Wow, you're pretty scary Serena. I've never seen this side of you."
"Rini makes the mom in me come out every once in a while. I'm going to take Rini home now."
"I'll drop you two off. Fiory, do you want to come along? I can try to get you an apartment at my apartment complex."
"Okay."
"I'll walk you home, Lita."
"Thanks Andrew."
"See you tomorrow, Mina?"
"Yup. But Fiory, before you leave, can you teleport Amy, Raye and me to our homes?"
Amara offered to drive Darien, Serena, Fiory and Rini to Serena's house since their house was far from Serena's.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Amara, Darien, Serena, Fiory and Rini left Amara, Michelle, and Trista's house and headed back to the Tsukino's residence. Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the Tsukino residence.
Darien took Rini straight up to her room with Serena and Fiory behind him. He shook his head and chuckled as he put her down on her bad. "Look at her. She whines about having to go to bed but passes out right when we left their house."
"A lot happened today. I'm surprised I haven't crashed yet."
"Same here. Usually transforming like that takes a lot out of us."
"Guess we're getting used to it. How long are you staying for again, Fiory?
"I don't plan on going anywhere for a long time. Like I said earlier, I'm here to stay. Besides, if I was planning on leaving after a bit, I wouldn't have asked Mina out."
"True. We better go; I don't want your dad to ban us from the house because we're here so late at night."
Serena rolled her eyes. "Yeah, like that'll ever happen. I'll walk you guys out."
"It's okay, stay inside. We'll see you tomorrow. Sweet dreams." He kissed her on the top of her head and headed towards his apartment complex.
"Night Serena," Fiory waved as he followed behind Darien.
Ten minutes later, Darien said to Fiory, "Let's stop by my apartment manager's office. Maybe he'll rent you an apartment. He's a nice guy so he just might."
The blinds on the windows were closed so they couldn't tell if anyone was in or not so Darien knocked on the door. "Jim, you in there? It's Darien."
"Come on in."
"Hey Jim, how've you been? Are there any apartments available on my floor? Preferably near me?"
"I've been good and actually, all of the apartments around you are free."
"What happened to the tenants?"
"The tenants who rented them moved to a different floor because they say it's too noisy. You know what that's about Darien? And who is the apartment for?"
Darien just chuckled because he knew the reason and he didn't blame them. Serena and her friends can get quite loud sometimes.
"The apartment is for me. I'm an old friend of Darien's. Just came back into town today."
"Fiory doesn't have any money right now but is it okay if he pays you at the end of each month? He's going to find a part-time job real soon so he can pay.
Jim: Since he's a friend of yours, I'll give him a month's free rent and then he can start paying me from the third month.
"Wow, thanks."
"I told you that he's a nice guy," he grinned.
"I'm trusting you with him, Darien."
"Don't worry about me. I don't get on anyone's bad side." ("Not without a reason, at least.")
"Okay, good, now here's a key. Hope the apartment is to your liking," he smiled.
"Thanks Jim," Darien and Fiory said in unision.
"Tell Serena I said hi when you see her tomorrow."
"Will do, Jim," Darien said as he and Fiory were leaving Jim's office and towards their apartments.
"He knows Serena?"
"Yeah, she comes over a lot, sometimes with the rest of the girls too. Rini and Hotaru also come visit but he's not too fond of them because they're still kids."
"How am I going to pay for rent?"
"You'll have to get a part-time job like Andrew and I have."
"You were being serious about that? Doing what? I don't even know what I'm good at nevertheless what I can do," he laughed.
"Let's talk to Andrew and see if he can give you a job there or at the Crown Plaza."
"What's the Crown Plaza?
"Andrew's younger sister, Elizabeth, works there. It's like a small café next door to the arcade. Well, here we are. This is my apartment," he said as he pointed to the door, "and yours is to the right of mine," pointing to the door on the right.
"Do you guys still go to school?"
"Yeah. I think we should enroll you at my college to see what you can do."
"Great...more human stuff."
Darien just laughed. "You're going to have to act more human if you plan on staying."
"As long as I get to see Mina, it should be worth it," he grinned.
Laughing as he rolled his eyes, he said goodnight to his friend and went inside his apartment to get ready for the next day.
It does take me a while to post new chapters since I have to change them from script form to story form but I will do my best to upload faster. If you see any mistakes, please let me know.
