Part 1: A Meeting With Disaster

	                        A SOLEM WISH
	             "A MEETING WITH DISASTER"

	I was walking down the street trying to get to the Cherry- Hill Temple. It was so busy. Rini, Artimus and Luna trailed behind me.
	"Serena... we have to stop at Ami's house!" Rini said.
	"Why?" I asked.
	"Well because she told us to. Where is her house anyway?" she asked.
	"About a half an hour walk back... why didn't you tell me this before?" I yelled at her.
	"I did... wern't you listening? I told you when you were in bed... you told me you were awake!" She yelled back.
	"You belived me?!!" I yelled.
	"Well of course I belived you!" She said.
	"The Cherry- Hill Temple is right there," I said pointing to the Cherry- Hill Temple's steps, "GO! Tell them why I'll be late!"
	"Serena, Artimus and I will come with you." Luna said.
	I hurried to Ami's house and found her sitting on her steps with her head tilted down. She had a gastly expression on her face. She was wearing sunglasses.
	"Hi, Ami! What's up?" I said continuing, "or down?"
	She looked up. I took a long hard look at her. She just didn't seem like Ami. 
	"You...." She yelled pushing me down. Tears flowed down her reddish coloured face. "I trusted you...." She screamed. "MERCURY STAR POWER",  
She yelled "MAKE UP!"
	"Why are you transforming?" I asked. "What's wrong?"
	"To get rid of you!" She yelled. Tears were running off her face like rain on a window pane.
	"What did I do? Please Ami, tell me. I don't understand! I yelled to her.
	"What did you do? What did you do? How can you say that!" She yelled.
"You were you, Serena! You spend more time with the other soldiers, especally Rei."
	"I DO NOT! WHY WOULD I SPEND TIME WITH REI?!" I yelled. "I WOULD NEVER DO THAT TO YOU. I LIKE YOU ALL EQUALLY." It was like she didn't know me very well. Why would I like Rei more? I thought.
	"SHINE AQU...."  Sailor Mercury started yelling her ice power. 
	At that moment I knew that I shouldn't be around her. I ran so fast from her yard that I tripped and landed on a person passing by. I kept running till I found the Temple. Before I went in, I dicided to think about what happened.  What just happened? Am I just crazy? Do I spend more time with one more than the other? No, I know I don't.

	"Where is Serena?" Rei said. "She is such a scatter-brian. What kind of Sailor Soldier can't make it for meetings? If she dosen't show up soon then we will have to elect another leader. I vote for me!"
	"REI, THIS IS SERIOUS!" Lita yelled.
	"Well I still would vote for me...." Rei mumbled under her breath.
	"I'm worried, she hasn't called or anything." Mina said. "I don't think she has ever been four hours late before. Well since she is so late, I might as well go get the communicater that Lita left at my house. I'll be back in about fifteen minuites."
	"Yeah, and it's not just Serena and Rini but Ami too. She has never been late." Lita said.
	Serena came up the stairs with tears flooding down her face.
	"AAAmeeeezz..." Serena said blubbering. "Hax gooooo craaaaaaazzzweee."
	"HUH???" They all said.

			*			*			*

	After about a half a hour I calmed down.
	"Are you done blubbering?" Rei said.
	"What I said was Ami has gone crazy!" I said.
	Everyone laughed at me.
	"Ami... gone crazy? That's a good one Serena! What's next? You have learned to fly?!!" Rei laughed.
	"Nooooooo it's true!" I cried out. "She tried to attack me! Why don't you belive me?"
	"It is a little unreal, Serena." Lita said. "So why do you say Ami has gone crazy?"
	"When I went to her house she looked upset. There was something about her I still don't think was right.
	"What?" Lita asked.
	"I don't know. She told me I spend more time with you guys. She even said I spend more time with Rei."
	"Why would I spend more time with a meat- ball head like you?" Rei said.
	"I don't think you spend more time with one more than the other. Maybe you just caught her at a bad time." Lita said.
	"Then she transformed and just before she ice stormed me I left. I didn't want to stick around. It's not like Ami."
	"She tried to use her power agenst you?" Lita asked.
	"Uh-huh." I replied.
	"That ISN'T at all like Ami." Rei said.
	"Where's Rini?" Lita asked. "Wasn't she coming with you?"
	"What! She isn't here with you? I walked most of the way here and Rini told me that I had to pick up Ami.  I was right here on this road, and I saw her going up the Temple steps." I said with tears in my eyes. It was starting to get dark. This kind of thing dosn't happen every day, you know."
	"Maybe it isn't Ami that's gone crazy Serena, maybe it's you." Rei said snickering.
	"Rei, that's enough!" Lita said with a harsh tone in her voice. "Serena may somethimes be irrisponsible, but she isn't known to be a liar."
	I started to cry right there. I couldn't take this. I was already under enough pressure.
	"SERREEENA!" Luna yelled running beside Artimus.
	I looked up to see Luna just running in, with Artimus. "Weren't you just beside me at Ami's?" I asked.
	"Meeeena neeee llllep!" Artimus yelled out of breath from running.
	"HUH?" I said.
	"Mina needs help." Luna said.
	"Tell them... tell them about Ami! Please!" I pleaded with them.
	"Ami is gone." Luna said.
	"Nut-uuh! She tried to attack me." I said.
	"That wasn't Ami." Luna said.
