Title: Truly Happy By: Cheska-chan E-Mail address: Minnashime@aol.com Web site: http://www.angelfire.com/anime2/ake Chapter 12 PG13 Author's notes: No, I don't own Sailor Moon or Gundam Wing okay? They are owned by their own creators. I have no link to them whatsoever. If I did I would be living in luxery right now over at the Bahamas or something. The only link would be...watching the show! ^^ Except that doesn't make any money at all....*sigh* I want to own Sailor Moon and Gundam Wing.....*sigh* Oh yeah...last episode was about Merodi and finding the Gundam pilots and they don't know each other except who their names are and the GW's finding out that Merodi is a Serena and she's also a princess. Also Neptune and Uranus are now back, Pluto has also visited. What else.. ahhh yes...the pegasus named Kamikaze has been found by who else? Merodi! ^^ A lot has happened and all I own is Merodi but not Serena or Sailor Moon...just Merodi as she has transformed and I own Par, Seij, Eli (except she hasn't showed up for the past 10 chapters!), Drew, and Kamikaze! I made that pegasus up! It doesn't link anywhere to the actual Pegasus okay?!?! So don't sue me I'm only a teenager that writes fanfics and has a site! I don't even get that much good grades! @_@ Now then..you know the drill with all those stuff that I put on! Also if you're wondering about the Japanese writings or whatever I put that up in the last chapter.....I'm not repeating them....you'll have to go back a chapter to get them. Or you may be in luck and I'll put them again in this fic...who knows.... Now on with the story! ^_^ ******************************************* The ride hasn't been as long as Serena had expected but they managed to get there without much complaints. "ALL RIGHT!!! WE'RE HERE! YES! WHOO-HOO!!" cheered a happy Serena as she got out of the car. "........." -_-;; (Quatra) "Let's pretend we don't know her..." (Duo) "We don't.." (Wufie) "Serena! Please! Be quiet! We're here!" (Amy) "Calm down.."(Michelle) "........." (Trowa) "........." (Duo) "Hey you guys! Come on! Let's go!" said Serena running up to them. "Who are you?" "Do I know you?" "........" "......." *giggle* *sweatdrop* *sweatdrop* "Ahhhh..come on! Don't act like that!!!"whined Serena. "This was the same girl who helped us?" -_-;; "...I think so..." "Maybe it's a drone or something.." "Maybe..." "I heard that.." "Oops..." "We're here!" "Press the bell!" *Ding Dong* "Yes..may I help you?"asked the kind woman as she came out of the porch. "Eli? Is that you?" asked Serena, wide-eyed. "Serena! Long time no see!" "It's only been like ...two-three days I think?"said Serena as she hugged Eli. "I think so...yes..."said Eli. "You guys this is Eli. She's a nurse over at the hospital!"introduced Serena. "My, my....so many people!" said Eli as she looked at all of them. "I didn't know you were the owner of this building?!?"said Serena. "Well...not really. My parents own it..I'm just helping out and I still get part of the money,"replied Eli, blushing. "Hmm...well then. I believe there was an appointment on us?"reminded Serena. "Yes....come into the office area. I'll show you,"said Eli walking back in with the others following behind her. "So...Serena..I haven't seen you for some time now. Taking a break?"said Eli. "Well..I'm not scheduled for those two days.."replied Serena. *Hmm...they're a quiet bunch...*thought Eli as she walked with Serena next to her. They went into the roomy office. It was a bit small but enough to fit all 8 of them.. well not really. Three of them were near the door way and the rest kind of squashed in. "So...is the one who signed up for the 5 bedroom apartment here?"asked Eli as she sat on the leather chair behind the cherry red desk. "Yes..I'm the one. We're going to split the money,"said Trowa. "Okay..that's fine. It looks like you're clear. The forms have all ready been filled out and ready to go. Here's the keys to your apartment, all ready been made. Let me show all of you around. It's one of the best places too! Except it's the most expensive. Quite roomy and has a great view,"told Eli as they walked outside and to the next building nearby. She stopped when they got to the next section of the wing in the apartment building. "Here it is,"said Eli as she opened the door in front of them. They entered a furnished apartment. Beige couches and chairs with a white dining table near the kitchen and stairs nearby. There was a fireplace as well near the window across the room. There was even a smal television! The kitchen was just the right size to fit 5 people. The refigerator, the stove, oven, the works in that place. Also a bathroom was near the other side of the room that was next to the closet that was near the stairs. Upstairs there was a small hallway that had 6 doors. The farthest door was a bedroom and near that was the bathroom. The rooms were well...sort of small but held enough room to fit a couple of things. Like a twin sized bed, t.v., and maybe a computer. each room had a closet even though it wasn't a walk-in but it will do. The two rooms that were in the left hand side had a balcony that led to a semi-great view. It was of the sity, since the hospital was on top of the hill and the apartment building was nearby. It meant that it must have been on the hill as well, ne? So that's a reason. "Wow...nice place!"awed Serena as she looked around. "......I suppose.."said Duo. "Serena? Are you up here?....there you are! The girls and I have been looking all over for you! We have to go..you ready?"called out Amy as she came into the room. "Oh! Yeah...uhmm yeah I'm ready...."said Serena and went out on downstairs followed by Duo and Quatra. "Well ja ne you guys! See ya soon!"said Serena and the others as they went downstairs. "Oh yeah...one more thing! The cars are yours! The keys are over there on the counter! See ya!!"waved Amara as she closed the door behind her and the girls. "Bye!"waved Duo and Quatra at their retreating figures while the other boys just stood there. ****************************** "That was a nice visit..I suppose don't you think?"said Serena as they walked down the street. "I guess.....except they're so quiet..."told Amy. "Maybe it's because they're new here and they're feeling awkward.."suggested Michelle. "I agree..."agreed Amara. "I suppose..."started Amy. "Serena! There you are! I've been looking all over for you!"called out Par as he ran across the street toward Serena and them. "Par! What are you doing here?"asked Serena, startled. "I was wondering where you were after the..."started Par but stopped when he noticed the other girls by her. "Oh don't worry you guys! It's only Par...remember don't ever tell of my secret.."reminded Serena, darkly. "We remember.."answered Amara looking at the two other girls. "You mean...they're people we can trust?"asked Par. "Yeah..they are..they know of my secret especially Amy.."said Serena. "Oh..." "What were you saying Par before?"asked Amy. "Oh that! Well after the fight I was..uhmm....can we go somewhere else?"suggested Par seeing that they were out in the open. "Let's go over to the park..it should be good enough if we go somewhere that not many peopl go to.."told Amy. "All right..let's go..."said Par and they all went to a secluded area of the park. "Okay we're here...so as I was saying after the fight with the monsters from what I have seen I was wondering where you were..I found out you are getting stronger with your powers. I'm proud of you Sere! I have heard from the news about your appearance and saving all those people! I'm very happy about that. You are getting the hang of this! Except..I don't have those powerful powers of yours! You must be stronger than me I gues..."told Par. "Wait a minute..you don't have those powers? How can that be?!? I only started my training! I don't understand!"excalimed Serena. "I think that..you have some explaining to do Serena..since those powers of yours are for the high power level kind of people..that may excede that of Seij's powers!"told Par. "Who's Seij?"asked Michelle. "Seij..is..."started Serena. "our trainer. He helps us with our training.."finished Par. "So..what is your answer Serena? I haven't said anything before because we know very little about each other and I have shared my secret to you...and yet..you haven't told me much about you...I know you have parents and a little brother. Also you had an argument with your friends. Also you have other friends that you hang out with..but other than that..it's close to nothing...I want to know Serena..what is it that's making you have this effect to your transformation..your very....completely different appearence on your change..and your powers.."told Par, looking at Serena in the eye. "You're right Par..I haven't given much information on my secrets and what goes on in my life. You have been a very dear friend of mine ever since we met. From then on you have shared your secrets with me but I haven't given any to you. You told me about your secret life and some people know about it too! Yet, I haven't given much about me. I should tell you a part of my very own deep secret,"stated Serena, her hand across her chest and her eyes downcast. "Must you Serena? It's very painful...."asked Michelle. "If she must..then she must,"told Amara, closing the subject for her. "Is it that bad?"asked Par, worriedly. "Hai, it is.."answered Serena her eyes still on the ground. Memories filled her mind of everything that has happened from the past to the present. "It all began on the moon..yes the moon...It was a very peaceful time, full of joy and merriment. Parties and fireworks filled the sky. It was a great millenium for the people as they were ruled by a kind hearted queen. Her name was Queen Serenity, a loving and caring ruler. She was loved by everyone, including me. I was the heir to the kingdom. My name was Princess Serenity or called by Princess Serena to others. I was very happy at the time and following the footsteps of my mother as I grew up. One thing kept us from having a perfect life though..that was Queen Beryl from Earth. No.. Earth was peaceful but Queen Beryl was ruthless and wanted nothing but to rule the universe. To get what she wanted she got an army full of youmas and evil, manipulated soldiers. She raged war with the kingdom on Earth, she won. Somehow..she found a way to get to the moon and from there....it was over for us. The Silver Alliance was destroyed and us along with it. Our kingdom fell but it wasn't the end for us..not at all. Queen Serenity used the last of her strength and power to conjure up the power of the Silver Crystal. She used it to have all of us be reborn on Earth in the future. So we can have a chance for peace and happiness. That wasn't so..it was true for some people but not to me or my followers. You see..Beryl and her followers were born as well. She tried to take over Earth again but.. she died..because the Silver Crystal is in my possesion. Yes, Par I hold the Silver Crystal, since I am the heir to it and the Moon Kingdom but the kingdom was destroyed. I didn't tell you everything, but it's enough to wrap up the story. I'm sorry.."told Serena as tears threatened to fall from her eyes. "That must have been hard for you Sere..thank you..I guess that does explain a lot..your magic must have been because you're the holder of the Slver Crytal. Thank you..and I'm sorry too for...my actions earlier on.."apologized Par, not staring at her. "It's okay..Par. I should be the one sorry for not telling you my secret. You told me yours and it's only right I tell you part of mine,"said Serena, her eyes glistening. "Thank you..." "No thank you..." "Okay you two! Stop it! It's too much! It's starting to be like a movie!"protested Michelle. "Oh yeah...*ahem*..." *ahem* "So like now that that long story is finished why don't we go somewhere?"asked Amara. "I guess..what about the coffee shop down the street?"suggested Michelle. "Sounds fine with me!" "I guess.." "All right!" So the 5 of them made their way towards the coffee shop where they talked and ate. ************************* Seij sat, deep in thought on the rock in the Secret Circle. His eyes closed and his legs folded. *120 years ago...I have been thought about all the things I know today. What is my purpose here?...to find the secret of the flutes, the jewel that we protect, and to help those in need...I have gone so far and yet...I have not found any answers to the flutes or the jewel. Helping others is pretty simple and I have done that but the Sailor Scouts do that nowadays. My master....where is he? I haven't heard from him for 120 years! I wonder what has happened to him....Serena..hmm...she is new here and the third flute bearer that is to join our journey. Something about her is different and that is true. Her powers are strong, stronger than mine even! I must train her...her true powers as a protector of the jewel is still within her. That transformation of hers was very different...especially the costume and everything...* **************************** Deep within the dark world where Beryl once was now sat a dark cloaked man wearing nothing but black with a hood over his head, covering his face. He carried a golden staff with a crystal orb on top. He sat on Beryl's throne doing nothing but looking straight ahead and saying nothing. "Master.....if I may speak...what is it that you are doing?"asked a cloaked person, from the sound of the voice it seemed to be a young woman. She was dressed in a cloak like the 'Master' but the color was white and instead of a staff, she held an orb that floated around her. Her voice echoed through the place sounding as if 8 people were speaking but there was only one that really spoke. "Ahh..yes...Sarya..my best warrior..you ask what I have been doing? I have been thinking of a plan to get those scouts as Beryl has said before in the past. It's a good thing she is gone. She was foolish...she hasn't planned out everything..now did she? Not telling about the scouts..I knew about them...but not their identities. You see Sarya....I have been sending out monsters to attack and get energy. I don't need it though..if we succeed in getting them..I'll simply store it in this place to strengthen everyone of our people.. but we don't need it,"told 'Master'. "Why don't we need it Master?"asked Sarya. "You see...I want to test the scout's power ability so that I may destroy them! I have heard from Beryl that they have great power and over the years I have kept a close eye on them. Seeing that indeed they are strong but they also have weaknesses. They tend to quarrel with their leader, Sailor Moon. Now that Sailor Moon is out of the picture because of their argument..they must be weaker! Except...there is a new warrior called Merodi....and she seems to be as strong as Sailor Moon or maybe even stronger!"told 'Master'. "How do you know all of this Master?"asked Sarya, bowing her head. "My crystal orb tells me whenever the scouts show up. I keep close tabs on my master and those scouts..except whenever the scouts are gone...the link to them vanishes. I can't get their readings at all! That's the flaw to this..power. I can find a way but it would take a lot of work and may waste my time. So this is the plan. I want you...Sarya to go with the next monster I send and do not show yourself just yet. I want you to go near the hospital, attack the healthy patients over there. I don't want you or the monster attacking the unhealthy ones, the energy of theirs are weak. I want you to take the healthy ones understand? The scouts will come and maybe even Merodi..they'll be there and try to save the patients. Keep yourself hidden and your power readings low! Most of the scouts can sense power readings....now then go and do that, find out their identities! I don't want you trying to fight them! We're not sure if they are that strong okay? Now go! Monster Tid, go with Sarya!"commanded Master. "Hai..I'll go...come Tid..."and together they vanished. "Sarya better go and find out..."whispered Master. ************************** "Go and start attacking Tid! I'll be close by.."commanded Sarya and vanished but not completely from on top of the hospital building. Tid nodded and jumped down from the tall 15 story building. Tid went down and started draining the healthy but still sick patients of the hospital. "AHHHHHH!!!" screamed the victims. "HAHAHAH!!!"laughed Tid as his long tentacles slithered around the patients of the hosptial. Tid was 12ft. tall with long purple tentacles with purple eyes and a small mouth but not lips. He had a pointed nose and no eyebrows. His hands are only tentacles and it generates electricity and fire at the same time. So it's pretty understandable that those victims are screaming, ne? Tid was draining the victims and at the same time giving out electricity & fire. "AHHHHH!!!" ******************** Darien and Raye now detransformed were sitting on the booth over at the arcade, drinking coffee and a strawberry milkshake. "I guess Par had to leave, huh?"said Raye, sipping her shake. "I guess..we were gone for some time.."nodded Darien, taking a sip of his coffee. "Hey guys!"greeted Lita and Mina as they came into the arcade where the food area was. "Hey! Sit down!"greeted Raye with a slight smile on Darien's expression. "So what have you been up to?"asked Lita. "Have you heard of the new super hero?"asked Mina. "How did you know?"asked Raye. "You heard of the new hero? When?"asked Mina. "You mean Merodi? Yeah..she was fighting some monsters and beat them..ON HER OWN!"told Raye. "Really? When?" "This afternoon,"answered Darien. "You mean we missed a fight!"a shocked Lita said. "Yup! Sure did..."answered Raye. "Ahhhhh!!"screamed several voices. "There's a fight. Let's go!"they said in unison and went out the door. They ducked into an alley and transformed. "MARS STAR POWER!!" "VENUS STAR POWER!!" "JUPITER STAR POWER!!" Together they transformed into Sailor Mars, Venus, and Jupiter with Darien taking out his transformation rose and turning into Tuxedo Mask. They went and ran toward where the screams came from. They saw pedestrians running away and whenever they saw curious onlookers they would have to keep telling them to go away because they could get hurt. "BURNING MANDALA!!" shouted Mars as she called forth her attack of the a big ball of flames came out of her fingers. "SPARKLING WIDE PRESSURE!!"shouted Jupiter after Mar's attack. "VENUS LOVE ME CHAIN WHIP!!" shouted Venus as her chain whip hit the Tid after. The monster let go of the victims and they dropped down onto the ground, scattered bodies now layed there. Tid, the monster, looked at them venomously. His eyes showing anger. "ARGHHH!!! You must be the sailor scouts. You don't look all that dangerous to me! I am Tid the monster!"spat out Tid as he looked at them as if they were nothing but insects. "Don't ever think we're pathetic! We are the Sailor Scouts! Don't ever judge a book by it's cover! Remember that!"declared Mars, doing her pose with the other sailors. Tuxedo Mask was over by the tree watching the scene, not saying anything. The monster took that advantage and sent forth his tentacles to capture them. Jupiter with electricity and Mars with fire, which was a big mistake but Venus was the one in trouble as electricity wrapped around her body. Mars and Jupiter didn't get hurt as fire and electricity were where their powers came from. They tried to get out of the mess they were in but his strength was too much. Venus screamed in pain as electricity shot through her body. Tuxedo Mask saw the situation and took out his steel tipped roses and aimed at the tentacles that encircled the trapped sailors. "ARGHHH!!! Who did that?!!?"cried out Tid as the pain shot through his tentacles. He let go immediately and Venus collapsed to the ground while Mars and Jupiter just landed down and kneeled next to Venus to see if she was okay. Tuxedo Mask came out of the tree and continued to throw the roses at Tid to hold him off while the others regained their strength. "We need to call for backup. I'll call Mercury to come by, kay?"stated Mars using her communicator to call for help. "Mercury! We need help over here next to the hospital. Come quickly!"said Mars. "I'll be there! Hang on!"responded Amy and closed off the communicator. "All we can do now is hold on.."said Mars. **************************** *Beep* *Beep* "That's the communicator.."stated Amy. "Mercury! We need help over here next to the hospital. Come quickly!"they heard Mars say. "I'll be there! Hang on!"responded Amy and then closed the communicator and then stood up. "Let's go!"said Amy and ran out the door followed by the others, including Par. They ducked into the nearest abandoned alley that they could find and transformed there. "Remember Par, don't tell anyone about our secret. Same with you guys too!"reminded Serena. "Right!"both said in unison. "MERCURY STAR POWER!!!"yelled out Mercury as she transformed. "URANUS STAR POWER!!"called out Sailor Uranus. "NEPTUNE STAR POWER!!"yelled out Sailor Neptune. Par went and transformed into his light sky blue Moonlight Knight uniform. Serena closed her eyes and thought of the memories that hurt her and kept within her and accepted that memory and at once, all of those memories gathered within her. A memory she chose was one with the fights she got in with her parents and her siblings. Like with Samy and Reenie. She accepted and realised it wasn't that bad...it was something she could accept. She knew that it was because she cared so much for them. It was really love she felt for them. Not because it was a "bad memory" it was out of love. She realised that and then the a bright light swirled around her with the wind and she numbly stood up as the wind carried her up... the light swirled around her and then went in her..bright lights came out around her and in her..and with that she changed. Her hair turned silver where it once was golden yellow. Her clothes changing as well..as the bright, golden white light swirled around her.. her clothes turning into a ninja style clothing..of silver as well as her hair without the mask..her white wings around her back as it spread out, lifting her up like an angel and then bringing her down to the ground closing up. Her eyes changing into silver..like the moon.. at night..it was as bright and like the same color. Her golden flute strapped to her left side and her sword on her right side. *Serena....Sereniy...Merodi..i am here in your mind..you have finally learned one step to accept yourself and others..now you may use this transformation freely by calling within yourself..just get that sense of your family and you can change into Merodi..I'm proud of you...* Merodi heard the voice and faintly smiled from hearing the good news. "Let's go!"Merodi heard Mercury say. "I'll catch up with you guys! I'll get Kamikaze go on!"Merodi told them. "We'll meet you there then! Be careful Merodi!"told the transformed Par, carrying his golden flute with him. Merodi smiled and nodded, as she watched her friends run toward the hospital. *Kamikaze..I call upon you..I need you..*channeled Merodi as she tried to reach Kamikaze. *I hear you..I'm coming...*answered Kamikaze. All of a sudden a big gust of wind swept around Merodi and then Kamikaze, his wings flapping about, came down next to her. "Thank you Kamikaze, let's go! Over to the hospital!"thanked Merodi as she got on the pegasus. Kamikaze flapped his wings again and flew off. Merodi saw the outers with Mercury and the transformed Par running toward the hospital. *Kamikaze make a stop above them..you don't mind bringing one of them to rde do you?* thought Merodi. *As long as you're here to protect then it's okay..* he responded. Kamikaze flew back toward the scouts and Par and stopped next to them still flapping his wings. "Hey you guys! Need a ride?"asked Merodi, smiling. "Not me, I'm fine!"told Neptune. "Me either!" agreed Uranus. "I'll be fine.."told Mercury. "That means you then, Par! Get on!" told Merodi as her hands reached for Par. He accepted and got on. *Partners..I can sense that..it feels right somehow..*channeled Kamikaze to Merodi. *Really? I didn't think you knew..he's my partner all right..*responded Merodi. Kamikaze flew off immediately after Par got on, holding onto Merodi's slim waist. They got to the hospital before the outers and Mercury got there. They noticed that the inners and Tuxedo Mask were in trouble with a capital T. "The monster looks to be 12ft. tall and has electrical and fire powers with that size.. I think he's stong..looks to be a guy,"analyzed Par. "hmm..that means that Mars and Jupiter can't do much. Jupiter can't stand a chance with that guy in brute strength. Venus looks to be drained..and Tuxedo Mask is looks to be getting tired with running around throwing roses. That leaves us!"told Merodi. "Okay then..what do we do?"asked transformed Par. "Well..Kamikaze...I want you to swoop down like with the last monster and instead of picking up the injured..I want you to try to hit the monster...sneak behind him! Then we get off during that process and Par I want you to try to play a soothing music that can heal them a bit, kay? I want Venus to be up since she doesn't have a certain kind of element. I'll use my sword after to try to do some damage with an air attack. Got it? I think we can hold out at least till the outers and Mercury come along. Then the real work begins,"told Merodi. "All right! Let's get started!"exclaimed transformed Par getting his flute out. *Got that Kamikaze?*asked Merodi through telekinesis. *Clearly..*responded Kamikaze. Kamikaze flapped his wings harder and dove down and as they neared the ground Merodi flew off using her wings while transformed Par did a flip and landed gracefully down to his feet. He immediately played a soothing sound that healed those that were hurt or drained of their energy. Venus and the others felt refreshed and ready to fight. While the victims/patients got up out of there as fast as they can. Kamikaze then hit Tid on the side, causing him to get knocked toward the neares tree while Kamikaze flew off. *Thank you Kamikaze stay there till it looks like we need help...thank you again..*thanked Merodi. "VENUS LOVE ME CHAIN ENCIRCLE!!"screamed out Venus as the chain wrapped around Tid, tightly. Merodi took this as an advantage and dove down with her sword and made an increasing amount of damage on Tid. *Hmm..that Merodi seems to be really strong and quick thinking..I think she planned this.. that pegasus too is really interesting..I haven't heard that Master say anything about a pegasus or that guy over there..* thought Sarya as she watched the fight. "AHHHh!!!"screamed Tid as the pain shot through him. Most of his tentacles were gone now and didn't grow back. His side was bruised as well, and it didn't help him get better as he was chained in Venus' love me chain. Merodi continued to hit him with the sword, causing him more pain than he already has. Par then played a war-like music that caused birds from around the area to come by to help. Different varieties of birds came by with hatred in their eyes. Par stopped as the birds were now gathered and then continued to play, the birds swept down and attacked Tid venomously. "ARGHHHH!!! AHHHH!! STOP!!!"screamed Tid but no mercy came to him. Merodi however stopped as she realized that he was asking for mercy. *I am the warrior of peace..I should give him justice and a chance..right?* thought Merodi. "I am Merodi, warrior of peace and justice. Do you mean what you say?"asked Merodi, staring at Tid and putting back her sword. "Yes..I do.."answered Tid pleadingly. "If you mean what you say..say that again..."stated Merodi, holding out her flute and then playing a soft melody of harmony and peace. "I do mean what I say. I want to renew my life and be good!" told Tid. Merodi opened her eyes but continued to play. She played harsher and remembered what Tid had said and when she opened her eyes she looked at Tid square in the eyes and something happened. Tid saw the look in Merodi's eyes and was scared! He didn't mean what he said, he would always devote himself to his master, Master. Now he didn't want to know what was coming but found out anyways. As Merodi played the golden flute a bright golden light came out and surrounded Tid. It engulfed him until all you can see was the light. "AHHHH!!!" Tid screamed as the light surrounded him and when it finished all that was left was nothing. No Tid, no light, no nothing. No trace was left of Tid at all. "What happened?"asked Sailor Uranus reached the scene followed by Neptune and Mercury. "I don't understand it...what happened Merodi?" asked transformed Par. "I don't get it..what happened?"questioned Venus. Mars, Jupiter, and Tuxedo Mask along with the others looked to Merodi to explain it. Merodi looked at the place where Tid stood before and sadness filled her eyes. She didn't move or make a sound....her flute on her hands and her head bent down. Her silver hair falling across her face. ".....he begged for mercy..I could here it..but it turned out he didn't mean it at all. Something tugged inside of me on how to heal people..of their evil if they ever wanted to be healed, but if they lied about it they have to pay the price. I suppose that's what the monster went through. Too bad..if he was healed he would have been all right.."whispered Merodi, faintly but enough to be heard by the others. "I still don't get it, what happened to Tid, the monster?"asked Venus. "...He..he couldn't take the truth or the spell that held..Tid to his devotion of being a monster. So the light that took him, destroyed him instead. It's hard to accept the truth..."explained Merodi, still looking at the spot. "..oh.."replied Venus. Mars, Jupiter, Mercury, Tuxedo Mask, Uranus, Neptune, and Venus held a shocked expression on their faces. Transformed Par looked calmly at Merodi and walked over to her. Merodi couldn't take it anymore..seeing Tid's pleading face and the pain that he had within him as he screamed. Merodi held her head on her hands with the flute and tried to shake the memory away, but it didn't go away. She didn't make a sound of crying at all though. She just closed her eyes tightly. Transformed Par walked up to Merodi and touched her shoulder in sympathy. Merodi, startled looked up at Par and faintly smiled and hugged him, her head on his chest and her eyes closed. Transformed Par faintly smiled, his eyes softened at the intimacy and held her in his arms. The Scouts and Tuxedo Mask looked at them and kept that way for awhile. *I don't know what's going on with those two, but it's a good thing that Darien doesn't know about Serena or else he would be furious right now* thought Mercury smiling. *Oh boy! Darien would be really angry right now..I can imagine his face steamin with this sight of Par and Serena!* grinned Uranus. *How sweet..those two embracing each other!..Serena sure has grown up in awhile! Hmm... Tuxedo Mask isn't reacting much..I guess the others don't know about Serena..I guess it's because of the arguement!..hmm..Darien would be soo jealous with this sight!* smiled Neptune looking at Tuxedo Mask and back at the 'couple'. *..that Merodi and that guy she's hugging looks like Serena and me...*sigh*..I haven't heard much from Serena..she's being so distant..what's going on..?* thought Tuxedo Mask, sighing. *Who is this Merodi? She seems familiar and yet..I don't know anything about her..* thought Mars. *sigh* *I wish I had a boyfriend..actually that guy looks like my old boyfriend!..I wonder who that Merodi is...* thought Jupiter. *sigh* *Love....something I haven't ever had before but I haven't experienced it at all! I do know that in my past life I had love in my life...* thought Venus. Transformed Par looked down at Merodi and smiled. Merodi sensed that he was looking at her and blushed but then looked up at transformed Par and stared at his kind eyes, still not letting go of him. *He's so kind and nice...it's almost perfect..or is it all ready perfect?...I don't know what this feeling is at all..he's been there for me all ready!...He's here right now.. in my arms...not questioning me..I guess he understands what I'm feeling right now..it's practically perfect!* thought Merodi, smiling up at him. Her eyes glowed of sympathy and thanking him. *She's so perfect..here in my arms. I feel sorry for her..but it's sympathy and I know she doesn't want that..I'm proud of her. She hasn't quit anything that came in her way..after all she's gone through..I haven't seen her cry a tear. I know she wants to but she hasn't.. that monster that she killed probably hurt her. Knowing that that monster used to be kind.. but was manipulated by something or someone..oh her eyes...she has kind, loving eyes...* thought transformed Par as she looked into her blue eyes. "Thank you.."whispered Merodi to him. "What for?" "For everything..you've been there for me..when I first transformed. You told me about your secret..you went with me to take care of Drew..you didn't question about the rest of my past..I will tell you..someday about it...and now here you are...being here when I need you when the others haven't come..thank you.."whispered Merodi, her eyes showing so much emotion of sadness and thankfullness. "No need..I should be thanking you...you came into my life and turns out to be my lost partner...you didn't question of my past...but I will tell you as well. I'm here because you needed me..and that's all why I came,"Transformed Par whispered back. Merodi averted her gaze with transformed Par and went back laying her head back to his chest but transformed Par still looked at her, his eyes never leaving her. They went back to just hugging each other. Trying to reassure each other that everything will be fine. Kamikaze flew down and landed between Tranformed Par and Merodi, and the Scouts with Tuxedo Mask. It's wings flapped for awhile sending big gust of wind at the two groups and then settled down, folding it's wings to it's side. Kamikaze looked at Merodi and Transformed Par and neighed. *Merodi....are you ready?*asked Kamikaze from his mind, channeling his master. Merodi's head jerked up and smiled at Kamikaze, smiling. Tranformed Par let go of their hold as he looked at Kamikaze as well. Now the two stood next to each other with a faint blush on their cheeks. "Oh! Kamikaze..here you are! Uhmm...you can go back now..if you want to!"smiled Merodi, with the blush on her cheeks still. *All right...be careful* Kamikaze nodded and flew back toward the clouds to his home in the trees. "A pegasus!"gasped the scouts, except for the ones who knew all ready. (which is Neptune, Uranus, and Mercury. Excluding Transformed Par and Merodi...Tuxedo Mask didn't say anything) "Hai..a pegasus...his name is Kamikaze...I found him.."nodded Merodi..putting back her flute to her side. "From where?"asked Mars. "I can't tell you that....it's a secret.."Merodi shook her sword. "...along with all you other secrets?"scoffed Mars, rolling her eyes. "I'm sorry but that's something I can't reveal you right now..."told Merodi. "We should get going. It's nearing night time,"told Jupiter. "Hai...we should"agreed Venus. The inners with Tuxedo Mask, excluding Mercury, started their walk back home. While the others stood there watching them go away. While Sarya saw this she looked at the group below her and to the one going away, choosing to follow the other group instead. "We should get back as well..."said Mercury. "Later..I'll go check on something..."told Merodi. "Where are you going?"asked Mercury. "Let her be..Mercury..let's go..."said Uranus. Mercury nodded and went with Neptune and Uranus back home. Transformed Par and Merodi stood there looking at each other. Merodi sighed and looked back to the hospital. Transformed Par looked at what she was looking at and understood. "It's been awhile since I visited him..I should visit him...right?"said Merodi. "Hai...you mean we...let's go.."told Par now detransformed. Merodi turned back as well, changing to Serena. Serena walked beside Par to the hospital, the sun still shining but not as bright as night is approaching. ********************************* The inner scouts walked on with Tuxedo Mask and finally reached a secluded area that looked safe enough to detransform. They detransformed not noticing that Sarya was still there, watching. They walked out and went toward their homes. *AHA! That's who they are..now to find out what their names are!* smiled Sarya to herself. She followed them as they went on home. She listened to the group chat and wave goobye to each other. "Bye! Ja ne! See ya!"waved the brown-haired. "Bye, Lita!"waved a blond. "See ya Mina, Raye, Darien!"waved Lita. "Bye!" "Ja ne!" "See ya.." The others went off toward their home. *So their names are Mina, that's the blond, Raye must be that raven haired, Lita should be the brown haired gal. So that leaves that guy with black hair and blue eyes as Darien!* thought Sarya. So she used her orb to get out of the place and back to Master. "Wait..you guys...we need to have a meeting about that new warrior, Merodi! So come to the meeting at the temple, tommorrow at 5:00...you should come as well, Darien! Someone tell Amy about the meeting as well,"told Raye. "Should...Serena come too? We haven't heard from her much..she should know about this new warrior as well. She's the princess!"asked Lita. "..Fine....she should come..."sighed Raye. "All right then..."nodded Mina. Then they went off toward home. To be continued..... ************************************* There's chapter 12 for you..not much in here and still waiting for a name for the transformed forms of Par and Seij. E-mail me when you know a name for them. I don't double space because..well it takes up so much space and it'll take longer to read the story! Plus..double spacing doesn't really look that nice to me. -_-;; Aren't you glad you don't have to do to be continued and wait next week? All you have to do is click the Chapter 13 now! ^^ I took long that's why! ^^;; Anyways...I'm looking for a new proof-reader that has time, give me suggestions on stories for next chapter, put up with my writing, check/fix grammer, spelling, etc. Please? You get to read ahead of time! Sorry I can't pay you..like I said...I'm poor, a teenager, I don't even have enough money to feed myself or buy myself nice things! ;_; This is a non-profit thing! It's only voluntary!
