Even though it is 2:00 in the morning, I had to write the next chapter of my story--I owe it to Mako-chan. Well, an's will be short--i just want to thank Mako-chan for all her support--read her fics, they are great! I also want to thank Naoko Takeuchi for making her dream of Sailor Moon a reality. Remembering Part 11 by: Sailor Starlite Serena was halfway to the skating rink when her communicater went off. Her eyes saddened, but she knew her duty as Sailor Moon came before Darien--no matter how much her soul cried out to be with him forever and always, never let him out of her sight. "Yeah, this is Serena." She mumbled into her wristwatch. They had just gotten these cool new communicators a short time ago--they were a lot easier to use than the other ones. "Serena, we need you at the Juuban Skating Rink. There is a monster there called Freezer, and is doing some intense damage. We need your help, pronto! Prisma is after Reenie, and we need you to battle her and take care of Reenie." Serena nodded, and broke the connection, running towards her favorite place. The Black Moon family would pay for this one. Darien was waiting for Serena to come when the signal that Sailor Moon had transformed hit him like a freight train. He swore under his breath, and wondered what Serena would say when she found out that he wasn't there. He hoped it wouldn't hurt her. He wanted to be by her side, always. When Sailor Moon came to the scene she saw how the entire rink, not just the ice, was frozen. Her temper flared, and she saw Mars hard at work at trying to rectify the situation. The ice was slowly melting, but the Scouts needed to finish off Freezer before the ice would totally go away. Sailor Moon spotted Reenie hiding in a corner, and she snuck up behind Prisma and drop-kicked her in the back of the knees, causing her to slip on the ice. "You little pest! I'll get you for this one!" She turned to lunge at Serena, but the slippery ice made her lose her footing and she fell down again. Serena slid for a moment, then formed her skates on her feet, balancing easy now. She scooped Reenie up in her arms and skated away quickly, laughing at Prisma silently. Prisma snarled and threw black lightning at Reenie. Serena saw this and threw herself in front of Reenie, taking the blow herself. She managed to aim her locket at Prisma, and whispered words that she had said before, when she was first battling the Dark Kingdom. "Moon Crystal Healing Activation!" The pure white light of the crystal shone over Prisma, purifying her of all of her negative energy. She collapsed to the ground, the droid vanishing and the ice around the rink vanished, too. Serena's energy was majorly spent, but she put on a strong front so her friends would not be worried. It didn't work, and she passed out on the ice, her ankle turning in the skates.Tuxedo Mask came up to her and lifted her in his arms, and glared at the rest of the Scouts. "I'll be taking her to a safe place. Please take care of Reenie while your leader recovers. I am not blaming you for what happened to her, it is my fault that I wasn't here sooner to protect her. I am sorry, everybody." With that, he left the rink, carrying Sailor Moon in his arms. Darien was on his way to the rink when he saw Serena transform into Sailor Moon. The shock left him paralyzed for a few moments, then he raced inside the rink just in time to see Serena/Sailor Moon block Prisma's lightning from hurting Reenie. He wanted to hit himself for not noticing the resemblence between the two before, but now the only thing he could do was take care of Serena, and he hoped that she would be okay. Serena awoke to find herself tucked in sheets that smelled like roses. She lifted her head, but it pounded like someone had been slamming a baseball bat into it. A cool cloth was pressed on her forehead and she looked astonished into Darien's caring blue eyes. "Dar...Darien?" She croaked out, wondering what she was doing with him. What had happened? She looked at him confused, asking with her eyes if he knew what was going on. He took her hand in his hands, and gently rubbed the back of it. "I bet you're wondering how you got in the rink, huh Serena?" He asked. She nodded. He decided to get right to the point. "I saved you after you passed out from healing Prisma, Serena. You were very weak, and I decided to take you here. I blame myself for not saving you in time." He stared into her crystal blue eyes, begging her forgiveness. She was staring at him with shock, then realized he was still wearing his tuxedo and cape, but not the mask or the hat. She reached out with her free hand and gently traced the lines of his face. "I forgive you, Darien. How could I not? I love you with all my soul, and beyond that." His eyes widened. Darien was a little shocked. No matter how much he loved her, it surprised him greatly to hear that she loved him the same. He who had shut love out of his life was loved by this girl. And this girl who put herself in danger everyday to save the world. He saw her try to get up again, and he gently pushed her back down. "Shh....don't move, Serena. You were hurt pretty badly. When you passed out on the ice, you twisted your ankle in the skates, you are severly sick, and have very little energy. I'm not letting you out of my site until you are completely healed." Her gaze softened, and she complied, dragging Darien down on the blankets beside her, resting her head on his chest. They fell asleep like that, protected by his and hers protective magic of eachother. Rei and the other girls wondered where Darien had taken Serena, but they weren't worried. They knew that Darien would protect Serena with his very life, and she would do the same for him. They completed eachother. She knew that they now knew their alter egos, which was a step. She wondered when would be the time to have them remember about their past lives. What she didn't know was that they were already putting together fragmented parts of their past, and the equations were being put together in their minds. ~~Serena and Darien's shared dream~~ Princess Serenity looked around for the young man she had met, who called himself Darien. He told her straight out that it wasn't his real name, but since she wasn't saying hers, it was only fair that he did not say his. They both had their reasons. She finally spotted him coming up, and she wondered if it was the right time to tell him who she really was--they were so close now, she didn't want this one little factor about her life mess everything that they had built up. But it had to be done. Mother had discovered that she was in love with somebody, and even more shocked to realize that it was a soul-bond. She demanded that her daughter bring the man to the palace as soon as possible. Now was the time, there was no backing out of it. She only hoped that Darien would understand. Prince Endymion of Earth saw Serena waiting for him, and he wondered what she was uneasy about. The feelings flowed down through the bond that they shared, and the look in her eyes was not missed by him, either. He went up to her immediatly, folding her into his arms, trying to comfort her. To his surprise, she pulled back from him and looked firmly into his eyes. "Darien, I have news for you. I do not know if you know who I truly am, but you know that I am not 'Serena.'" He nodded, and she continued. "The truth is, is that I am Princess Serenity." He looked at her strangely, and she finished the rest of her title. If he hated her, she would leave. But she knew that he had to know--she couldn't bear keeping a single secret from him, even one as important as this one. "I am Princess Serenity the Third, Heir to the Throne of the Silver Millinnium, daughter of Queen Serenity the Second, of the Moon Kingdom." She started crying then, not wanting to look him in the eye, and see his horror at falling in love with one who came from the Moon Kingdom. Endymion was in shock. He suspected that there was something special about Serena/Serenity, but he never imagined this! He held her tight, trying to stop the tears that flowed from her eyes. "Shh, my little princess. My ice angel. It will be all right. Why the sudden revelation?" He asked. She looked up at him, and took a careful breath. "My mother wants to meet you." She said with a grin. "She wants to meet the young man who managed to create a soul-bond with her daughter." Endymion grinned, too. "I guess then it is my time to reveal my true idenity. I am Prince Endymion of the Earth Kingdom. I am pleased to make your aquaintince, Princess Serenity." ~~End Dream~~ Serena and Darien both shot up in bed at the same time, then looked at eachother. 'What was that?' They both thought, then smiled. Even if their dreams were not the clearest at the moment, one thing was clear. They had found the ones they had loved before, and they knew this love would last always and forever. End of Chapter 11. Are you enjoying this yet? Gomen, I know that this chapter was short. Well, e-mail me peoples, and I'll write more. Until later--remember Mamo-chan is forever, as long as I can clone!
