Serena looked out her bedroom window feeling shocked and angry. She had just found out she was betrothed to Prince Endymion of Earth. Darien people called him. Even worse, he was going to stay at the Moon Kingdom for 2 months. Something about “getting to know each other”. Jeez! She knew him and hated him. Oh, she admit that he’s handsome and the prince of Earth, but that didn’t exclude him from her list of jerks. He was so not like Kevin.
Kevin. He was another story. He was handsome, too and was a general on the army. He was 4 years older than Serena. Kevin was the opposite of Darien. He was smarter, more mature, and sweeter. He didn’t call her meatball head, which was Darien’s favorite nickname for her. It wasn’t her fault that the tradition in the kingdom was she had to wear 2 buns on top of her head. Kevin also didn’t call her dumb or a klutz.
Besides, I’m not dumb, Serena said to herself. I just don’t like working or doing algebra. What’s the point of algebra? A or Z or S or whatever letter they’re using always equal to something different every time, so why bother?”
Serena didn’t said anything about the klutz part. She knew she was a klutz the way she always bumped into a person.
Serena sighed. Why couldn’t she have been betrothed to Kevin? She would be so much happier.
Parents! They just don’t care how their child feels, Serena complained.


2 Months of Hate...& Maybe Love?

Chapter 1

Serena looked out her bedroom window feeling shocked and angry. She had just found out she was betrothed to Prince Endymion of Earth. Darien people called him. Even worse, he was going to stay at the Moon Kingdom for 2 months. Something about "getting to know each other". Jeez! She knew him and hated him. Oh, she admit that he's handsome and the prince of Earth, but that didn't exclude him from her list of jerks. He was so not like Kevin.
Kevin. He was another story. He was handsome, too and was a general on the army. He was 4 years older than Serena. Kevin was the opposite of Darien. He was smarter, more mature, and sweeter. He didn't call her meatball head, which was Darien's favorite nickname for her. It wasn't her fault that the tradition in the kingdom was she had to wear 2 buns on top of her head. Kevin also didn't call her dumb or a klutz.
" Besides, I'm not dumb," Serena said to herself. "I just don't like working or doing algebra. What's the point of algebra? A or Z or S or whatever letter they're using always equal to something different every time, so why bother?"
Serena didn't said anything about the klutz part. She knew she was a klutz the way she always bumped into a person.
Serena sighed. Why couldn't she have been betrothed to Kevin? She would be so much happier.
"Parents! They just don't care how their child feels," Serena complained.



Serena opened her eyes. Today was the day Darien would be arriving. Serena yawned and walked to her closet and chose to wear a silk dress for the occasion.
She walked down the marble stairs where Queen Serenity was waiting.
"Prince Endymion should be here in a few minutes", Queen Serenity said. Serena just nodded.
Pretty soon, Prince Endymion and his parents arrived. Darien was 16 making him 3 years older than Serena. Darien walked past Serena, ignoring her.
"Endymion!" Darien's father's voice boomed. "Just where are your manners?"
Darien scowled and walked back to where Serena was standing.
"And don't scowl, dear, your face might stay that way," His mother added.
Darien picked up Serena's hand as if it were a bomb and gave a quick peck. Then he muttered something she couldn't hear.
"Well? Louder, son, louder!" His father said looking disapprovingly at him.
Darien said loud enough so that everyone could hear,
"Nice to meet you again, Princess Serenity, " and then adding so that only Serena could hear, "The Queen of Brats," and then dropped her hand. Serena glared at him.
‘How immature,' she thought.
Serena waited for the parents to exchange greetings and thought about what she should do to Darien.

Meanwhile, Berlye was in a rage. Her warriors had again failed to destroy the Sailor Scouts.
"Must I do everything? Can't they understand I want them to destroy the scouts? " Berlye exploded. At that moment her servant, Damon had to choose to walk in. [what a stupid choice]
"T-tea, my queen?" Damon asked holding out a tray. Berlye stared at the tray, Then she took the tray and threw it against the wall and the shattering of the glass was heard.
‘Get out now," Berlye hissed. Daemon scrambled away running for the life of him. A few servants and maids had learned the hard way to never mess with Berlye when she was angry.
Berlye wanted more than just tea. She wanted the Moon Kingdom with the scouts destroyed. And she was going to get some way or other.

“What do you mean he’s going to stay?’Raye asked surprised.
“Exactly what I said. I said he’s going to stay,” Serena replied annoyed she had to say it more than 2 times for them to understand.
The whole group was here. Amy, Raye, Lita and Mina. They were all staring at Serena wide-eyed and with disbelief.
“Stay? I didn’t know you guys married already!” Raye said angrily.
“Any you didn’t even invite us to the wedding,” the rest of them said together.
“Don’t be stupid!” Serena said. “Amy, I thought you were the smart one! Of course I didn’t marry him! He’s just staying for two months.
Raye glared at her. She looked jealous.
“Why do you look so jealous? It’s not like having Darien here is a great thing, so why?” Serena asked confused.
“Because,” Raye answered. Her face started turning pink.
“Because why?”Serena asked still not realizing why. “Hey, Raye, why is your face turning pink? You’re not getting a sunburn or something are you? We’re not even out in the sun”.
Mina rolled her eyes. Sometimes Serena was like in complete darkness.
“Serena, don’t you know? Raye-likes-Darien!”
Serena stared at Raye. Then she burst out laughing. Raye like Darien? That was the most ridiculous thing she had ever heard. The rest of the group glared at her. ‘Why is it that she finds things that aren’t supposed to be funny funny?’ The thought flashed through their minds. Serena kept laughing. Lita was about to tell Serena to shut up when Darien arrived.
“What’s so funny? And why do you laugh so loud? I could hear you down the hall!” Darien told them.
Serena stopped laughing and said, “Can’t you go away? Can’t you see we’re busy?” Serena said coldly. Before Darien could answer, Raye interrupted.
“We’re not busy! Why don’t you join us?Raye was almost drooling. She ignored the ‘don’t!’ look on Serena’s face.
“Join you? You’ve got to be kidding. Yeah, I’ll join you when meatball head leaves. I have to take safety precautions. You can never be too safe when meatball head is here. She’ll probably trip me first and then start talking about dumb things that are so boring.” Darien looked at Serena with dislike.
“Stop calling me meatball head!”Serena yelled standing up. “And I won’t trip you by accident, I’ll trip you on purpose! And I don’t talk about dumb things, I talk about interesting topics!
Darien looked like he was going to laugh out loud. It was clear he enjoyed making Serena angry.
“Like?”he asked grinning.
“L-like, it’s none of your business!”Serena hadn’t expected Darien to ask that. This time Darien did laugh out loud.
“Well I’m going to leave, this place is boring anyway.”Darien said and left. Serena angrily walked back to her seat and glared at the spot Darien was standing at before. Raye, who had all this time had been drooling and staring at Darien, now snapped back to reality.
“Don’t you think he had the most amazing eyes? I could just stare at them all day!” Raye sighed happily.
“Well, I’ll give you all my photos of him”, Serena offered, but Raye didn’t hear. She was dreaming about Darien again.

Serena got ready to go meet Kevin. It had been a while since they’ve met. Serena was excited. They had been in love for about 1 year, but had to keep it a secret. She stole out of her room and tiptoed outside. She ran to the gardens where Kevin was waiting.
“Hello, princess. You’re as beautiful as ever,”Kevin said smiling. Serena blushed. Darien probably would have said as ugly as ever.
“I missed you, Kevin,”Serena told him.
“So did I,”Kevin answered. He looked into her eyes but suddenly serena felt scared of him and uncomfortable.
‘Get a hold of yourself,’ Serena told herself. ‘There’s no reason for you to be scared. Kevin is good, not evil.’
Kevin noticed and said, “You seem scared, princess!”He looked concerned.
“Of course not! I am just chilly.”
“I am sorry I have no jacket for you,” Kevin said apologetically.
“It’s ok. At least you’re not Darien.”
The two kissed in the moonlight.

Darien was shocked. So Kevin and Serena were in love. I should have known, he said silently. He had followed Serena and had plenty of experience going off in the night being tuxedo mask. It made him sick to look at them and hear them. He walked away. I will talk to mom and dad tomorrow. I will not marry Serena he thought.

Summary : Serena is stuck with Darien for 2 months.Beryl orders her to be kidnapped. Her kidnapper falls in love with her.Then she discovers the man she thought she loved was really evil.What will she do?
* = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * =



The surprising news: Serena and Darien are no longer betrothed. Some how they managed to do that. [An:There was supposed to be a discussion, but I thought it would be boring, so I took that away.] Darien and Raye paired up and Serena was free to be with kevin, but somehow, Serena wasn’t happy.

Since right now it’s boring, let’s see what Kevin is doing.

“How is it, love?” The voice of Beryl said.

“Well, so far Serena and Darien are no longer betrothed. Serena loves me and thinks I love her. I think we can do something soon,”Kevin replied. [gasp! Kevin’s EVIL!!!!!!] Beryl smiled.

“Wonderful! And as soon as she is out of the way, we can marry and rule the Moon together. Keep up the good work, dear,”Beryl said.

“Yes, my queen,” Kevin bowed and walked out.

Serena was confused. She was no longer betrothed to Darien but she felt an unhappiness. ‘Maybe if I go to Kevin, I’ll be happier,’ She thought. So she did.

“Hello, princess,”said Kevin. Serena smiled. See! I’m already happy! Serena thought. Then kevin held something out to her.

“A present, princess. Tomorrow is your birthday after all.”said kevin hugging her.

‘Oh, this gift is wonderful!”Serena squealed. He had given her a a necklace with a large ruby in the middle. Serena smiled at him.

“You are even more wonderful, darling,” He whispered. And they kiss.

[Yeah, right. Cheat!]

The next day, there were crowds of people. It was the princess’s birthday. The sailor scouts were here, too. Queen Serenity got up to make a speech. Suddenly the light went out. People screamed. Then a figure arrived.

“Give me the princess.”The figure was a woman with a dark moon on her forehead. People gasped. Serena and the other sailor scouts sprang into action. They transformed and got ready to fight the woman.Now people are really surprised! They had no idea the princesses pocessed this. [an:sorry! I'm skipping the fighting part. Im no good at fighting.:-[ next time I’ll ask my friend and maybe there will be fighting scenes.]

The sailor scouts defeated the woman and cleaned up the messes made.

“You failed!!!!!!!”Beryl screamed at Kerina. Kerina was frightened.

“I tried m-my b-best, my queen.”Kerina was trembling. She knew Beryl would kill her later.

“Calm down, Beryl. That wasn’t a really good plan. We need a better fighter. Someone like Jonathan.”Kevin suggested.

Beryl thought about this for a minute. Slowly the hand that could have hurt Kerina lowered.

“Jonathan.” She seemed to consider this for a minute.

Then she turned to Kerina.

“Get Jonathan,”She ordered.

“Y-yes, my queen,”Kerina said. She was relieved she wasn’t going to be killed. Beryl however wasn’t going to let her go without a punishment.

Kerina later came back with Jonathan who was quite handsome. He bowed to her.

“Johnathan, since this idiot” she pointed to Kerina “can’t do the simple task of kidnapping Sailor Moon, I am giving this assignment to you. I have faith in you. Make sure you bring Sailor Moon to me alive.”

“Yes, of course,”said Jonathan walking away. Then Beryl swung her attention to Kerina. She smiled a wicked smile. Kerina eyes widened. She knew exactly what was going to happen. Then she did a stupid thing. She tried to fight back. Beryl grew angrier and destroyed Kerina.

“Fool! Thinks she can beat me,”Beryl spat.

“No need to be angry, dear. That idiot is gone. You don’t need to care about her any longer,”Kevin comforted her.

At the moon kingdom, Serena grew more and more jealous of Raye even though she didn’t want Darien. It didn’t help when the couple kissed right in front of her and always talking about each other. Actually that was Raye. It was always Darien this and Darien that, it got on everyone’s nerves until one afternoon when Serena yelled at Raye to shut up. Raye just tossed her hair and put her nose up.

“You’re just jealous!’Raye snapped.

“JEALOUS?!? ME? WHY THE HECK WOULD I BE JEALOUS OF THAT-THAT JERK?”Serena shrieked.

Raye’s face turned red.

“Listen, you stupid meatball head! Darien is not a jerk! In fact he is the most sweet and caring person in the world! And if he is is a jerk, which he is not, he’s my jerk!”Raye shouted.

“Sweet and caring? HA!!! I DON’T THINK HE IS A BIT!! IF HE IS SO SWEET AND CARING THEN WHY IS HE SO RUTHLESS TOWARDS ME?” Serena yelled back.

“Be-because you’re a crybaby and a klutz and he hates you. But HE LOVES ME b” at the last word Raye stopped talking. Serena looked at her and wonder why. Then she understood. Darien was in the doorway.

"I must the luckiest guy in the world. Two girls are fighting over me!"Darien teased. This only made Serena angrier. She was about to yell at him but her throat was sore from all that yelling, so she just stormed out of the room.

Jonathan climbed through Serena's window. He smiled triumphantly. He had gotten past the guards and Beryl would surely award him later. When he got to her bed, he almost stopped breathing. Lying before him, was what was the most beautiful creature in the whole universe. He felt sorry for her. How could such a peaceful-looking, and young woman possibly harm the Negaverse? 'But orders are orders,' her told himself silently. He picked Serena up. Just then Serena stirred. Her eyes opened. He was so startled that he dropped her and there was a thump.She saw him. Her eyes widened and she was about to scream when he knocked her out. Her body crumpled and fell to the floor. Jonathan picked her up with great care and dropped a note onto her bed.

Lana, Serena's maid, walked up the stairs and went up to Serena's room. She knocked. No answer. She knocked again. Still no answer. So she turned the doorknob and went in. Serena wasn't in bed. Lana was surprised. It wasn't usually that Serena woke up so early. She shook her head disapprovingly. Serena should know by now to make her bed. Lana walked over and was about to make the bed when she saw a piece of paper. She picked it up. Lana's eyes widened. On the paper, was:

It's me, Serena. Mom, I'm sorry for doing this. I just don't want to live here anymore. Don't worry about me. I'll be just fine.

~ Serena ~

Lana ran to the queen's room.

"Queen Serenity! Wake up! Queen Serenity!"Lana yelled, banging on the doors. It was a few minutes before the door opened.

"Lana, you know better than this. I need my sleep," Queen Serenity said sleepily.

"But-" Lana started to say.

"Imean it, La-" The queen stopped talking when Lana waved the note in her eyes.

"But, Queen Serenity! Serena has ran away! Here's the note!"Lana said. Queen Serenity gasped after she read the note.

"R-run away! Why would she? This is all my fault! I should've treated her better!"Queen Serenity wailed. Lana soothed her.

'It's not your fault, Queen Serenity. How could it be? Serena was perfectly happy!"

Queen Serenity stopped and regained her order. She called up her soldiers. She ordered them to search for Serena everywhere.

"Mars, Jupiter, Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Pluto, Earth, EVERYWHERE!" Queen Serenity cried. She called up her advisors and asked what to do next. As her most trustworthy advisor read the note, his face grew more and more grave.

"Run away? The princess knows better than that! No, I do not think so." Her advisor said.

Queen Serenity's face grew pale.

"S-so then what happened to her?" She asked although she knew what was coming.

"She was kidnapped!'Her advisor answered.

"Seize them!" Beryl shouted. Jonathan and Serena gasped. Jonathan had been trying to help Serena escape when Beryl arrived. [An: Serena knows Kevin is evil. I just skipped the dialogue figuring you would be bored with it.]

"Now how did I know Jonathan would fall for the spoiled brat here?" Beryl asked looking wicked.



"Spoiled brat?!? I am not a spoiled brat, y-you pile of dog poop!"Serena yelled.

"Dog poop? How ever does that fit us?" Beryl asked smiling as if this was just a game.

"You all stink and you are something people try to avoid when they're walking!"Serena yelled struggling to get free from the strong arms of Kevin.

The smile faded. Now she just looked angry. She turned to speak to Jonathan.

"You, you filth! How dare you betray us! Do you know the pnishment for treason?"Beryl asked lowering her face until it was level to Jonathan's.

'Do you now" Jonathan looked away.

"Death!"Kevin yelled out joyously.

"Shut up, you disgusting creature!" Beryl hissed.

"Shut up? Disgusting creature? What's wrong?"Kevin asked confused, and let go of Serena's arms. Beryl had never spoken like this to him before. Serena could have made abreak for it except she was caught up in this.

"Oops. I guess I forgot to mention,"Beryl said laughing. "Take him away!"

Kevin's eyes widened. "Take me away? W-what do you mean? I thought you loved me! We're supposed to get married!" He cried as a youma took him away.

If Kevin had paid more attention to Beryl's eyes, the way they showed no love at all, he would have realized she was only using him to get to Serena.

"Did you really think I love you? You, you weakling?"Beryl spat.

Kevin's yells started fading when the youma took him away.

"I would kill you, Jonathan, I would. But if you want to live, then you must do this one thing,"Beryl said to Jonathan.

"W-what?"Jonathan asked afraid of the answer.

"I want you to kill the Sailor scouts. You are a good fighter, so I trust you will do this job well. But bring that Tuxedo Mask here. ALIVE,"Beryl answered walking away."Also, Kestina, you know what to do with the twerp."

Kesina was Kerina's sister but a much more successful one. She bowed and grabbed Serena's arm. Serena yelped because her grip hurted.

_~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~_



2 days later...

Jonathan had failed. Well, not exactly. He had failed in doing what Beryl wanted him to do. Instead, he had warned the Sailor Scouts.

"What do you mean the Sailor Scouts are here?"Beryl yelled at Kestina.

"It seems, my queen, that Jonathan had betrayed us once again,"Kestina answered.

Beyl face turned purple with anger. "I should have known that bitch would warn them,"Beryl yelled. "Get the army out... and get Princess as well.

Kestina bowed and teleported.

_~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~_



"Where do you think Serena is?"whispered Mina.

"Possibly in a cell or..."Amy's voice trailed off.

"Or what?!"Raye said.

"Or,"Amy hesistated. "Or brainwashed."

"Brainwashed?"The others said all at once.

"She can't be!"Lita said."And if she is, I am going to kick those slugs' butt!"

"We all are!"Mina said angrily. She wasn't exactly the violent type, but in this case, she didn't mind giving the Negaverse a beating. The thought was very satisfying.

"Let's go then!"Tuxedo Mask said. [Oops, I guess I gorgot to mention he was with them too.]

"Yeah! We have some butts to kick!"The others said in unision.



_~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~_



"Where is Serena!?!"Lita shouted itching to go up to that Beryl's smiling face and giving her a good punch.

"Oh, the MOON princess, you mean? The champion of LOVE and JUSTICE?"Beryl asked a smirk on her face. "Come on out,"She said.

Mina almost fainted. In fact, all the sailor scouts almost fainted. Serena was here. But she WAS NOT Serena. This was a different one.

Serena looked stunning, in a long black dress with her used-to-be-golden blonde hair loose. The hair was now black and even that made her look beautiful. Everything was black from head to toe. A black upside-down crescent moon was on her forehead showing all she was part of the Negaverse. She had chunky black sandals on wth black nail polish, black lipstick, you get the point. [I know, I know. BLACK LIPSTICK? BLACK NAIL POLISH? Well, hey, it goes well with story and besides, Serena would probably look good. She is just one of those looks-good-in-everything kind of person.]

Darien's mouth fell open. He stared at her, not believing what he saw.

"Meatball head?"He asked and closed his mouth.

"Don't you call me meatball head, you BITCH!"Serena hissed. The name didn't fit her anyway. Darien looked stunned. Serena had never in all her life cursed at anyone or anything.

"Serena,"Raye started.

'Shut up!"Serena snarled. "I didn't ask you to speak!"

Raye's eyes shown anger at this.

"You didn't ask me to speak? You didn't ask me? EXCUSE ME! But since when did you tell me to speak? What am I? A puppet and you're the puppetmaster?"

"Serena, what happened?"Mina asked in wonder.

"Didn't I just say don't call me Serena? My name is Metallia!"

[An:I know, that's the name of Beryl's daughter, I think. I couldn't come up with any other name so I decided that in MY story, Metallia will be Serena's name but when Beryl has a daughter, her daughter will also be named Metallia. ]

"And what happened? I'll tell you what happened! How dare you betray me and just criticize me behind my back? Me, a klutz? A dumb idiot?"Ser- I mean Metallia yelled.

"Betray you? Criticize you? You got it all wrong, girl!"Lita said. "Sure we teased you, but we never talked behind your back and we never will! We are loyal and will always remain loyal except now,"Lita looked sad. "Except now you are evil."

"The Negaverse excepts me for who I am, not what I could be!'Ser-Ugh! I mean Metallia said. "You all will pay for your betrayal."

"Dark Moon Power!"/"Dark Morph Power!" [An: Those are really lame I know but it has a sort of ring to it. Pick whichever you like.]

Serena had been brain-washed and remembered nothing about the happy times she and her friends had had. Her memories had been twisted and all she remebered was they had betrayed her and insulted her.

Serena/Metallia let out a beam sending the sailor scouts sprawled on the ground.

Lita had enough. She loved Serena, but she wasn't going to stand for this.

"Jupiter Thunder Dragon!"

"Lita! Don't!"Mina cried out. She was still loyal to Serena and she felt they could turn Serena back.

Too late. Serena let out a shriek of pain but did not give up. She let out another beam, but this one Lita dodged.

"I'll teach you to never mess with me,"Shesaid. She held a black crystal up and suddenly it lit up which was bad news because Lita fell to the ground her energy taken away from her. She didn't have even an ounce of strength left.

Raye grew angrier. 'How dare Serena do this!'She thought.

"Come on, guys! We have to fight. There is no other way!"Amy and Mina didn't want ot, but they knew they had to.

"Mercury Bubble Blast!"Amy shouted. But it didn't work. She, Raye and Mina blinked.

"I-it didn't have any effect,"Stuttered Mina.

"Let's try combining all our powers!"Raye suggested. They nodded.

"Mars Fire Surround!"

"Mercury Bubble Blast!"

"Venus Love Me Chain!" [An: I have no idea how effective these attacks are on account of I don't know how to write fighting scenes, but I'll try.]

None of these had any effect. It was Serena/Metallia's turn.

"Don't just stand there, Darien! Do something,"They cried.

Darien's mind was a complete blank. He didn't know what to do. There was nothing left to do except defeat Serena/Metallia, because at that point Serena/Metallia let out a bigger and brighter beam combined with.... the attacks Mina, Amy, and Raye had used! It hit them full force and everything seemed to be in slow motion. They saw the beam but it was like they were glued to the ground. Mina felt the pain, the pain that Serena would do something like this. It hurt more than the blast. Raye felt anger and pain and sadness go through her body.

"Why, Serena, why?"She whispered before she lost consciousness.

Amy was still conscious, but barely. Her uniform was in tatters and she felt like lead. She struggled to get up but no luck. She fell back down with a groan.

Darien all this time had just been watching. Suddenly the world came back to focus. If the Sailor Scouts couldn't defeat her, then how could he? He decided to try sugar.

"Good. Now they're taken care of. This will make our lives so much easier in conquering the moon, isn't it Beryl? I get to destroy the place, all the goodness,"Even though Serena said it happily, she felt guilty. She felt pain. She felt sadness. She did not know why.

'why did you do that, Serena? WHY?"Darien shouted as loud as he can. Serena turned towards him. She had forgotten he was there as well.

"How could you do this? We had all loved you! You were the one who provided happiness for us!"Darien said. He really did feel sad. Tears were on his cheek.

"They loved you. I LOVED you!" Strangely, Darien meant it.

"Y-you loved me?"Serena whispered.

'Yes! We all did! Now you had to join them! You betrayed us! We didn't betray you!"

"NO! Don't listen to him, Metallia!"Beryl screamed. "He's lying to you! we're the ones who care about you!"

Serena's face was expressionless. Darien was suddenly scared. What if Serena didn't believe him? It was hard to tell. Serena's eyes glittered. Who had she chosen? Him or... Beryl?

* = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * = * =



Beryl's face had a smug smile on. Darien felt like punching her.

"How dare you lie to me, you bastard!"Serena/Metallia hissed, her blood boiling. Darien had never seen her so... so... frightening. Deep hatred showed in her eyes.

"Kill him now, Metallia!"Baryl said gleefully. This was all going too well. Soon she'll have the Moon and Queen Serenity, that idiot, would die of shame of her daughter. Her lips curved into a smile.

Serena/Metallia took a step forward, closer to Darien.

"When I'm done with you," Serena/Metallia said, "You'll be nothing but a corpse."

Darien was silent. There was nothing he could do. He was powerless against her. To his surprise, he felt a tear drop from his eyes to the ground, and another. He was crying for himself, the Moon, the universe, the innocent people about to controlled by Beryl, but most of all, Serena. She had turned from a cheerful, innocent, angelic princess, to an evil, heartless member of the Negaverse.

'Oh, Serena!'Darien thought. 'Why did this have to happen? I would do anything, ANYTHIHG, to get back the old Serena.'

"So crying now, huh?"Serena cackled oviously delighted by this.

"Dark Moon Beam!"Serena shouted.

[An: What? Why are you staring? Is it because that's the wrong name or a corny name? *Shrugs* Hey, at least Chapter 6 is here, or do you want me to leave another short chapter? Or worse,a cliffhanger?]

Darien shut his eyes, ready to be blasted with the beam and die. Nothing came. He opened his eyes, puzzled. Then he gawked at that was happening. His tears was forming to create a silver crystal, glittering brilliantly.

"What?"He asked. Serena/Metallia too was confused. Her attack hadn't worked. She gaped at the crystal, wondering what it was.

Then suddenly, the world around Serena froze. Even the people. Darien was in his kneeling position and Beryl was smiling.

'What's happening,' She thought.

"Serena, why did you betray your friends, family?"A voice asked, sad.

"What? Who is that? Where are you?"Serena asked turning in every direction.

'That's not important,"The voice said softly. "YOU are important. Look at yourself. Now look ahead of you."

Serena looked ahead of her. There was a young girl, awfully familiar. Golden-blonde hair, 2 buns, tresses, but short, protruding from the buns. Cerulean blue eyes shone with happiness. The girl giggled. She skipped towards a woman,who too had the same hair style but silver hair. She reached out to hug the girl who happily jumped into her arms.

With a jolt, Serena realized who the girl was. It was her.

"Correct, Compare yourself with her,"The voice said reading her thoughts.

'Me? That's me? B-but I'm so..."Her voice faltered. She knew what the voice meant. She used to be so happy. Now she was so... not! In a rush, the memories flooded back into her brain.

She remembered all the fun times she had with her friends, even Darien. She remembered her mother. She remembered The Negaverse was their enemy.

"What have I done?"She cried, sobbing. "I killed my friends!"

By then, she was back to the real world. She was determined to set things right.

~::::..:..::::..:..::::..:..::::..:..::::~

Darien wondered what had happened that he didn't know, because Serena was standing right in front of him, kneeling before the bodies of the sailor scouts, tears trailing down her face.

Beryl was angry.

"Get up, you fool!" She hissed. "You're supposed to kill HIM!"

Serena looked at her, eyes full of anger.

"You LIED! You're my enemy! How dare you brainwash me!" Everything was clear now. Her memories were back.

Darien felt like celebrating. Except this wasn't the time to do it.

Beryl was shocked.

'What???' Her mind screamed. 'She was brainwashed! How could she remember this?' Everything was going wrong.

Serena wasn't paying attention anymore. She was crying and moaning.

"I'm so sorry, Raye, Amy, Lita, Mina! I'm so sorry for killing you guys!"She sobbed grabbing at what was left of their uniform. She was hysterical. Darien got up and ran up to Serena. He put a hand on her shoulder.

"It's ok, Serena, it wasn't your fauly," He whispered.

"Yes it is!!! It is!"Serena screamed. She was clinging to Darien.

"W-what is happening?"Darien asked at the sight before him. The four scouts' uniform was no longer in tatters. It was, well, looked like new! The bruises, cuts, wounds, etc. were healing fast.

"Guys?"Serena shrieked. "Oh my gosh! They're alive! They're alive!"She ran over to them, and tripped over the body of Raye and fell on the top of Amy. Once again, she's a klutz. Darien ran over to help her up.

"Ouch!!!!"Amy yelled.

Lita saw Serena and sprang up.

"Jupi-"

"No Lita! Serena is on our side again!"Darien shouted.

Lita lowered her eyes suspiciously. Why should she believe them? Darien might be brainwashed too for all she knew.

Just then, Serena and Darien realized they were still holding each other's hands. They both let go quickly.

"Eeewwww!"Serena said rubbing her hand.

Tears sprang to Lita's eyes.

"You are back!" The whle group joned for a group hug.

"Ummm, guys, but where did Beryl go?"Min asked, finally remembering that Beryl was supposed to be here. "Umm, you guys destroyed her right?"

Serena and Darien looked at each other.

"Uh-oh,"They said in unison.

"Why, I'm right here!"The all-too familiar voice said. Beryl was standing with a whole army.

"So you have your memories back. Well it's too late. I'm still getting the Moon!"

"Who said?"Serena said ready to fight.

"You're not going fight without us!"Someone said. Serena whirled around. It was... Queen Serenity!

"MOM!"Serena screamed tears flowing with happiness and joy.

"oh my baby!"Queen Serenity said hugging Serena tightly.

"I thought you were dead!"Queen Serenity said crying.

"Uh, we understand your feelings but do you think we can start fighting?"Amy asked.

The two remembered and got ready to fight. Queen Serenity had bought along soldiers with her.

[An: The hard part, the hard part, the fighting part, the fighting part. Forgive me! I can't do it!!!! I'm sooooo sorry! I can do it!]

"Mercury Buble Blast!" It hit one of the youmas, but the youma wasn't badly hurt.It leaped at her,claws ready to slash her.

"Mercury, watch out!"Lita shouted and pushed Amy away. it was luck that Lita didn't get hurt.

"I'll teach you for messing with us!"lita yelled. "Jupiter Oak Revolution!"

It still didn't stop the youma. Thank goodness Beryl didn't bring along many. The youmas were hard to beat.

"Venus Love Me Chain!"The chain wrapped around another youma, trapping it. This youma seemed to be a bit weaker.

The soldiers from the moon had swords and was slicing the youmas with it. [Eeew! The bloody mess!]

"Mars Flame Sniper!" [er, I don't know how the attack works.*sweatdrop*]

That attack finished off the youma Venus had trapped.

Serena let out a yelp of pain. Another youma's claws were dug deep into her flesh, blood dripping from the wound. The pain was unbearable. Serena couldn't take it. Suddenly, the world turned black.
