				Part 3
					By : Sailor Destiny

	Darien walked back into Serina's hospital room where she was sound asleep. *How am I going to tell her about this?* Darien thought to himself as Serina woke up. "Darien, where's my baby? Serina asked on impulse knowing that she had went into labor at the ball. " She's in intensive care Serina." Darien said as he watched the look on Serina's face darken. " What's wrong with her? Darien I didn't do anything wrong so why did she come early?" Serina asked Darien. " She only came early because of the stress you've been under Serina, that's the only reason why she's early and she's very early at that. Serina you where only in your sixth month of pregnancy. They don't know if she'll make it through the night at that Serina but she's a fighter like you and I think she'll make it. If she does then she'll live a good life with a good mommy and daddy. I promise. " Darien said to Serina as she began to cry.  "Where's Serina I want to see her." An angry voice yelled outside. "Your Majesty you will have to calm down  Serina has just gotten out of delivery and she needs her rest. You can come back tomorrow." Dr. Anderson told Alan. " No I must see her now!" He said. " Darien please tell him I said go away I don't need anymore of him Beryl or Travis at the moment." Serina asked Darien. " All right I'll tell them." Darien said as he kissed her forehead and walked out the door. "Excuse me your Majesty Serina said she does not wish to see you or the other extended members of the family at this moment she would like for you to leave so she can get some sleep. She has had a rough day." Darien said to Alan in an icy tone that froze them all like steel. " If the Princess wishes it then it shall be but I will be back tomorrow to talk with her. I was worried sick about her." Alan said as he turned and walked out. Beryl and Travis following behind. Travis had an evil grin on his face. "Dr. Chiba what does he mean by Princess." Dr. Anderson asked.  "I'm not at liberty to tell you have to ask Serina that herself." Darien told Dr. Anderson as he walked back into the room Serina was in. When he returned to Serina's room he noticed that she was sleep. So he pulled up a chair and sat down next to her bed and fell asleep.
	It was ten in the morning when Serina woke up. She looked around her room and her sight rested on Darien who was asleep in the chair next to her. She smiled and put her hand over his. She laid back in her bed and turned on the TV. As she flipped channels  nurse walked into the room. "Well good morning Miss. Tsukino, how are you doing this morning?" the nurse asked. "I'm doing ok but I want to know how is my baby." Serina said as she looked at the nurse. "The baby is fine. We were surprised she made it through the night." The nurse said as she began to take Serina's vital signs. Serina smiled happily. The nurse smiled and she finished with her job and left the room. As the nurse left Darien woke up. " Good morning sweetheart." Darien said to the smiling Serina. " Good morning to you too darling."  Serina said " So is there any good news on the baby?" Darien asked her. " Yes she made it through the night and she most likely will live." Serina said as she hugged     Darien and he hugged back. " That's so good Serina. I'm so happy." Darien said. At that moment Dr. Anderson walked in. "So I take it you heard the news Serina?" Dr. Anderson asked. " Yes I did and I'm so happy to know that she's alive and that she'll live." Serina said happily. "Well I would like to know what last night was all about and the big argument you had with King Alan?" Dr. Anderson asked. "It's a long story." Serina said not really wanting to discuss the events of her past.  "Well I have plenty of time." Dr. Anderson said as she sat down in a chair.
	Outside the hospital Alan, Beryl and Travis where standing talking. "Well how are we going to get rid of that little blond brat and her child when Dr. Chiba is standing around her at all times. I want the throne when you die not her!" Beryl said angrily. " Don't worry my dear. I took care of Mina and I'll take care of Serina and her daughter." Travis said as he kissed Beryl on the cheek before he left. Come now Beryl lets go get something to eat and leave everything to Travis." Alan said as he left with Beryl following behind. Back in Serina's hospital room Dr. Anderson was listing to Serina tell her about what happened. "So let me get this right. You're the long lost princess of England and you witnessed your mother's death when you where about 6. Then you ran away from your step-father  with Mina who was your sister until her untimely death. Which was done at the hands of your ex who's dating your step-sister?" Dr. Anderson said as she recapped the story in short hand. " That's correct." Serina said as she looked at Dr. Anderson. "Well that is quite a story for anyone and then as young as you where to witness your mothers death must have been traumatizing." Dr. Anderson said as she rose to leave. "Yes it was and now since I didn't get to grow up with my mother I would like to be there for my own daughter so if you don't mind Dr. Anderson I would like to see my child." Serina said as she sat up in bed. "Sure I'll bring her in." Dr. Anderson said as she left the room. "Serina, even though this is my second time hearing the story I can't help but feel sorry for you and Mina about what has happened to you in your life and then to loose your sister the only one from your family that was still alive I sympathize." Darien said as he hugged Serina close to him. " I know you do Darien and it's mainly because you went through the same thing even though you where an only child." Serina said as she hugged back. 
At that moment Dr. Anderson returned to Serina's room with tears in her eyes. " Dr. Anderson what's wrong?" Darien asked. Serina looked up and into *Laura's eyes. (see authors note at the bottom) Darien stood up and walked over to her to see what was wrong.  Darien and Laura walked outside Serina's room. " Laura what happened?" Darien asked her "It's Serina's daughter, she was murdered while in the nursery by someone. She was killed exactly like Mina." Laura said as she began to cry heavily. "How am I going to tell Serina." As Darien said that a shrill scream came from Serina's room. Darien and Laura ran into the room to see a bloody body on Serina's bed. Darien ran to the bed and he saw the body of Serina's baby in her arms and a bloody gash in Serina's head. "Whoever killed Serina's little girl is intent on killing Serina too." Darien said. "GET ME A EMERGENCY ROOM STAT!" Darien yelled as he tried to get Serina to start breathing again. *Come on Serina please don't leave me I need you.* Darien thought as he felt Serina breathing faintly. The nurses got into the room and took Serina to an emergency room. Laura ran to the phone in her office and called Amy. "Hello this is Amy." Amy said as she picked up the phone. "Amy it's your mother. We have a problem and you need to get the other girls together and get down hear right now." Laura sobbed into the phone. "Mom what's wrong with Serina?" Amy asked alarmed. "Someone is trying to kill her. I'll tell you the rest when you get hear." Laura said. "Ok Mom I'm on my way." Amy said as she hung up the phone. 
	On the other side of town Travis was walking around town looking for the restaurant Beryl and Alan went to. When he found the restaurant he immediately went in. "Travis, did you take care of them?" Beryl asked. " I took care of them both. When I left Little Lady Serenity was dead and her child was dead too." Travis said as he kissed Beryl on her cheek. "Good!" Beryl said as she began to laugh evilly. "With blonde out of the way nothing can stand in my way of the throne when my dad dies." Beryl said to Travis as Andrew came over to take their orders. *So Travis is trying to kill my only sister that I have left. I hope and still have hope that Little Lady Serenity will live.* Andrew thought to himself. "Can I take your order your majesty?" Andrew asked his step father who didn't recognize him. "Yes we will all have the club sandwich." Alan said to Andrew. Andrew took the orders to the chef. "I'm leaving for my lunch break have someone else take King Alan his food." Andrew said to the cook who nodded. Andrew promptly left and went straight to the hospital. 
	When Andrew arrived at the hospital he saw Lita, Amy, Alex, Michelle, Hanna, Susan, and Ray pacing around the room. Andrew walked up to his wife Susan and she began to cry on his shoulder. She already knew the whole story from beginning to end. "Hush Susan I know who tried to kill Serina." Andrew whispered into her ear. "Who?" She mouthed. "It was Travis, he also killed her child who was also his own." Andrew told her. He had never seen Susan look so pissed. "Have you heard any other news on her condition?" Andrew asked Susan. "No." Susan said as she continued to sob into Andrew's chest. Andrew tried his hardest to comfort her. Then Amy saw Darien and ran over to him. They talked for a while before he noticed Andrew was there. When he finished his conversation with Amy who went back and told the girls the news he went over to Andrew. "How's my sister?" Andrew asked Darien straight out. Andrew and Darien had been friends for years and Andrew knew how much Darien loved his sister. " She'll be fine Andrew but she won't be able to walk as good as she used to anymore." Darien said as tears ran down his face. That was the first time Andrew had seen Darien cry. "Darien I know Serenity and I know she will walk like she used to this isn't the first time a doctor has said this about her." Andrew said to Darien as the shook hands. "Please take care of her I have some unfinished business to attend to."
