Author: Serenita Title: A Heart Worth Taking Rating: PG E-Mail: MoonAngel2133@aol.com Chapter Four Hi! Me again. The last one was short. I know. So I made this one a little longer. Enjoy. PLEASE E-MAIL ME ANY COMMENTS! ALL ARE WELCOME!  I don't own Sailor Moon and Hanol belongs to my friend who has given me permission to use it and wishes to remain anonymous. Chapter Four Serena took a deep breath. Her legs were killing her. She had walked around the lake at least five times and Hanol still wasn't there! She had been thinking and wanted to get this all over with. Then, Hanol appeared in front of her. Serena gasped. "So, I guess I didn't need a victim after all. You were already here. Prepare to die, Serena." Serena glared at her. "Don't hold your breath." She took hold of her broach. "Moon Cosmic POWER!" and she transformed into Sailor Moon. Hanol looked upset and then sighed. "Oh well, here we go again." Then she looked around. "No sailor pals with you? This could be my lucky day." Serena looked down. "I told them not to come." She said. "I guess I spoke too soon." Said Hanol. Serena was confused. "What?" she turned around to see her friends standing there. She got a little worried and mad. "You guys! Why did you..." she was cut off. "Serena, LOOK OUT!" cried Mina.  "What?" she was about to turn but Hanol grabbed a hold of her and pulled her away from the group. She grabbed a knife from her boot and brought it to Serena's neck. "Make one move, and the chick dies." The scouts looked helplessly at Serena. Hanol grabbed Serena's broach and ripped it from her. She transformed back into her normal clothes. Hanol threw it on the ground beside her. "Now the fun begins!" she said. mockingly.  She placed the knife back in her boot and placed a hand over Serena's chest. Serena knew she had to do something. She reached up and grabbed the amulet Hanol had around her neck.  She then threw it to Darien, "Darien, CATCH!" he caught it and held it in his hands. Hanol got mad. "Oh! For that you'll die!" cried Hanol on anger. "NO! STOP!" cried Darien. There was nothing they could do but plead. If they attacked Serena would be hit too. There was nothing that they could do. Hanol smirked. A white light glowed from Hanol's hand. Serena screamed in pain. He fell to his knees and he watched them.  All Darien could do was watch in helpless horror as Hanol practically killed her. He placed his hands over his ears. Her screams were torture to him. Hanol suddenly stopped and looked at her hand in confusion. Serena stopped screaming and was now breathing hard. The scouts were confused. Why did she stop? Hanol looked at Serena and then at the scouts. "We will meet again." And she disappeared with Serena still in her arms. "NO! SERENA!" yelled Darien. He placed his head in his hands and bent down in sorrow. In his hands he still head the amulet.  They were gone. To where, the scouts did not know. Millions of questions and thought screamed through their heads. But the biggest one that they wanted answered was. "What do we do now?" Hanol and Serena arrived in another dimension. Hanol threw Serena to the ground. Serena looked up and saw that there was barely anything in the room that they were in. There was a stone platform and a small pool of crystal glass. "Where am I?" asked Serena. "In a place in which I only knew about, until now. This is where I spend most of my time." "In this pitch blackness? It's like there is no walls!" "Oh, but there is. There is a door too. But you can't see it. It's covered in black. I made it this way so if someone found their way in, they couldn't find their way out." Serena looked surprised. "So I have to be here FOREVER!?!" she yelled. Hanol smiled. "No, I'll kill you before that happens." She said. Serena stood up, and went over to the pool of crystal. She looked in it but it was totally black. She touched it. It was very smooth to the touch. Suddenly an image appeared. There was Darien and the scouts all at Raye's temple with worried looks. She heard what they were saying. "What are we going to do!?!" "We don't know where she is!" "How are we going to get her back!?!" "How are we supposed to get Hanol to come here?" "Where did they go!?!" All were asking worried questions. Serena looked at Darien. She gently touched his face. A smiled appeared on his lips and he touched his face exactly where she had touched him.  She touched her friends' faces and they did what Darien did. Serena was astounded. They could actually feel her presence!?! "Amazing, huh? She heard Hanol say. Serena turned around and saw Hanol standing there. Had she been there the whole time? "Yeah, it's really cool. As soon as I touched it, it showed me what I wanted to see." "That's how I saw you, your friends, and your boyfriend." Serena looked a little nervous. "How did you get such a great guy?" "What?" "Your boyfriend. He risks his life for you a lot, it looks like he cares for you, how did a ditz like you get a great guy like that?" Serena smiled. Either it was because she called her a ditz when she barely knew her or she was asking about Darien, making normal conversation as if it was any old day, she didn't know, but she did smile. "Well... we fell in love 1000 years ago. We were reincarnated because we were killed in a terrible battle and my mother wanted me to live my life. Back then I was more sophisticated and graceful, 'cause I was a princess, but now I'm not. We met, here, in this time, and fell in love. I don't know if he loves me because of what I was or who I am, but I don't really care. Deep down I am the same person to him. I love him for that." Hanol felt strange. What was this feeling? This person had so much passion in her that Hanol actually admired her. Too bad she would have to kill her. "Well... that's really something." She grabbed Serena's arm, pulled her to the platform, and slammed her down on it. Serena cried out in pain. Metal clasps went around her wrists and her ankles. "Too bad your mother wasted her time reincarnating you. 'Cause it looks like your not going to live your life." She walked over to the crystal pool. She must have done something because the scouts looked back at the image. "Listen to me. I have your princess. She will die if in the next twenty-four hours you come to the park with the amulet. If you give the amulet to me, I'll let her go, if not..." she made a slicing sound and drew her finger across her throat, "...The girl dies. I'll be waiting." And then the Image in the glass disappeared. Hanol turned around and walked over to Serena. "We'll see if your prince will come and save you. Either way, you'll all die." Oooooo.... A cliffhanger. Don't worry I will write chapter five ASAP! Peace out! Serenita
