Sailor Moon World Chapter 4 "Endymion," asked Troy, wide eyed. "Lenience," asked Darien with even wider eyes. "You know I hate that name," answered Troy with a huge grin on his face. Darien just stood unmoving, staring at Troy. Troy's happy face grew to one of concern, "Are you okay," he asked. Darien smiled and hugged Troy, letting all of his emotion go free. Troy hugged the crying Darien back, a few tears coming from his eyes. Serena, who was running far ahead of the other girls with Reenie, stopped as she saw the two guys hugging. She watched in confusion as Darien was crying his eyes out and tears coming from Troy's. Serena backed up some before turning around and quickly running away, dragging Reenie with her. As she's running, tears are flying out of her eyes. "What are you doing, Serena," shouted Reenie, "Where are you going." Serena seemed the not even hear Reenie when she spoke to her. She just kept on running, not even worrying about where she'll end up. She saw a phone booth in front of her and she ran inside and sat down against the wall, she put her head between her knees and sobbed. Reenie's angry face turned to one of concern when Serena ran into the phone booth and cried her heart out again. She slowly walked into the phone booth and put her arms around Serena. While Darien was hugging Troy, he saw a familiar meatball head staring at him in disbelief before turning and running away. "SERENA," he shouted, but he knew that she didn't hear him. He took his arms off of Troy and stared at the little girl getting farther and farther away, dragging Reenie with her. He felt her pain and knew that she was crying and really hurt, but he didn't know why. He stood in thought for a moment before realizing why she was so hurt. "Oh my god," he said, a look of shock on his face. *** Serena opened the door to her house, her eyes red and puffy from recently crying. She was holding Reenie's hand as she walked up the stairs and into her room. She locked the door and jumped onto her bed. She lay down on her stomach and cried into her hands. Reenie climbed onto the bed next to her and rubbed her back. There was a knock at the door and Serena shot out of her crying. She sat up as Reenie walked to the door and opened it. In the doorway stood four very concerned looking girls. They waved hi and sat down next to Serena on the bed. Lita put her hand on Serena's shoulder. "What's wrong, Serena," asked Lita. "What happened that made you run away like that," asked Mina, "We were trying to call you but you didn't answer." Serena's eyes filled up with tears again. "Serena," said Amy, "tell us what's wrong." "Yeah, meatball head," said Raye, "Tell us what's bothering you?" "I…" said Serena, "I…think I know why…Darien…dumped me…" Serena burst out into tears. Lita gently rubbed her shoulder the calm her down. "What's that," asked Mina. "I think…" said Serena, "he doesn't like girls anymore." She burst into tears again. Everybody stood still in shock. Mina was the first one out of it. "Don't be silly," said Mina, "Why do you think that?" Lita agreed with Mina, "Yeah, why do you think he doesn't like girls?" "I saw him on the way to the arcade," said Serena, sniffling, "He was hugging that guy Troy. I mean, he wasn't hugging him like the friend he hasn't seen in awhile, he was REALLY hugging him." The four other girls were really shocked now. They sat staring wide-eyed. Reenie just stood in confusion. She had no idea what Serena was talking about, but she knew it wasn't good. "Wait a sec," said Lita, knocking the other girls out of their shocked state, "Are you saying that Darien is…" Serena nodded her head. Raye's face turned angry, "Come on, meatball head. Do you really believe that? I mean, I've seen you two making out plenty of times." The other girls all nodded their heads in agreement. Reenie still sat in confusion. "Maybe he did like girls until one day he realized that he liked them better and dumped me," said Serena. The other girls sat in thought about what she just said. "What do you guys think," asked Serena. Mina shrugged. "Beats me," said Lita. "Don't ask me," said Amy. "You're on your own this time, meatball head," said Raye. Serena's eyes filled up with tears again. Lita saw this and instantly tried to calm her down. "Calm down Serena," said Lita, "Things will work out, don't worry. I'm sure this is a big misunderstanding." The other girls nodded in agreement. Serena calmed down again. "I guess your right, Lita," said Serena, "Thank you!" "Well I have to go now, see ya later, Serena," said Lita. "I have to leave too," said Mina, "Bye!" "I still have to finish my chores at the temple," said Raye, "See you later meatball head." "I have to get home too," said Amy, "I still have to study for that test tomorrow." The other girls rolled their eyes. "Bye guys," said Serena, "See you tomorrow!" "Bye," said the four girls before leaving the room. Serena sat back down on the bed and hugged a pillow. "What was that all about," asked a voice from her left. She quickly looked to see who was talking. She calmed down when she saw it was only Reenie. She forgot that the little girl was there. "Oh, that," answered Serena, "It's hard to explain. You'll understand someday." Reenie was just about to fight back but stopped herself, knowing that she'll never win. Serena got up and changed into her pajamas and lied down on her bed. "It's been a long day," said Serena, "and we have school tomorrow, so let's get some sleep." "Okay," said Reenie before changing into her pajamas. She walked over to Serena to say goodnight, but she was already asleep. She smiled and kissed her on the forehead. "Goodnight, Serena," said Reenie. She climbed into the bed and quickly fell asleep. *** The next morning, Serena opened her eyes to the familiar shaking she felt every morning. She looked at the cat pushing her with her paws. "Wake up sleepy heads," said Luna, "You're going to be late for school…again." Serena slowly sat up. "Good morning, Luna," said Serena, watching her cat trying to wake Reenie up. "Just a few more minutes, mommy," mumbled the little girl next to her. Serena smiled at the thought of how much Reenie is like her. Serena bent down over Reenie, "Wake up Reenie," said Serena, "We got to get to school on time today." Reenie slowly opened her eyes, "Hi Serena," she said before sitting up. "You two hurry up and get ready," said Luna, "or you're going to be late." Serena and Reenie both rolled their eyes and climbed out of bed. They both took a quick bath and got dressed before running downstairs. "Bye," said Serena, taking a piece of toast from the table before running out the door. "Bye," said Reenie before doing the same. The two girls ran down the street and yelled, "Bye," at the corner before turning their separate ways. Serena got to school just on time, knowing that Reenie's on time too because her school's closer. She ran to her classroom and sat down, panting from the long run. Her teacher walked around the classroom collecting the homework that's due, not bothering to look at Serena, knowing that she didn't have hers in. After collecting the homework, the teacher walked to the front of the class to make an announcement. "Kids, we have a new student in school today. His name is Troy Sceftnor. Come up here Troy." Troy stood up and walked to the front of the class where the teacher was. "Why don't you tell the class about yourself, Troy," said the teacher. Troy cleared his throat before speaking, "Hi, my name's Troy Sceftnor. I'm fifteen years old and just moved here from America after living there for nine years." None of the guys seemed to care, but all the girls were staring at him with dreamy eyes. The teacher told him to sit back down. He walked back down one of the rows, all the girls following him with their heads. *** The lunch bell rang later in the day and everybody ran outside to eat. Serena was one of the first people outside. She quickly ran around to find Amy. When she found her, they found a table and sat down. Normally, Lita would be there too, but neither Amy nor Serena could find her. "So where's Lita," asked Serena while stuffing her face with a sandwich. "I don't know," answered Amy, "I couldn't find her anywhere. Do you have any idea where she can be?" Serena shrugged and took out a big chocolate doughnut. Out of the back door came Lita with Troy. "Here she is," said Serena, "and guess who she's with." Amy rolled her eyes, knowing who it was. Lita seemed to be showing him around the school because she was pointing out many important places to him. She saw Serena and Amy and waved at them before dragging Troy over to the table. "Hey guys," said Lita, "This is Troy." "Hi," said the two girls. "Troy," said Lita, "I want you to meet two of my best friends, Amy and Serena. This is Amy," said Lita, pointing to Amy. Troy shook her hand. "Nice to meet you Amy," said Troy. Amy smiled back. Lita spoke up again, "And this is…" There was a scream from inside the school. All the girls turned towards where they heard the sound with annoyed looks on their faces. Lita turned back to where Troy was standing, but he wasn't there. She looked around, but he was nowhere in site. 'That guy,' thought Lita, 'He bailed out on me again.' The girls looked around until they saw there was no people in site. "MERCURY STAR POWER!" "JUPITER STAR POWER!" "MOON CRYSTAL POWER!" The three girls transformed into scouts and ran into the school. They stopped to look around. Mercury pressed her earring, taking down her computer. "Now," said Sailor Mercury, typing away at the computer, "Found it. There's two. They're in the library." Sailor Jupiter turned on her communicator and contacted the other scouts, "Raye, Mina," she said, "there's two droids at our school library. Hurry up!" "We're on our way," said the two voices from the other side. Sailor Jupiter turned off her communicator, "Let's go," she shouted. The two other scouts nodded their heads before running upstairs. When they entered the upstairs hallway, books were all over the floor. Sailor Mercury turned angry and stomped the rest of the way to the Library doors. Sailor Moon and Jupiter giggled at the angry look on her face before running to catch up. When they got closer to the Library doors, they saw a light coming from the inside. When they entered the library through the double doors, there was a large fire engulfing a lot of the shelves and the rest covered in ice. The first droid, on the fire covered side of the room, was a human like figure but seemed to be made totally of fire. The only thing that stood out was the black crystal on where the forehead should be. On the frozen side was another human-like figure, but was made completely of ice except for the black crystal on its forehead. "STOP RIGHT THERE," shouted Sailor Mercury, "The library is a place for learning and relaxation, not for destruction. You destroyed the greatest source for learning so in the name of Mercury…" "In the name of Jupiter," shouted Sailor Jupiter. "And in the name of the moon," shouted Sailor Moon. "We'll punish you," finished two voices from behind them. Jupiter, Mercury, and Sailor Moon turned around to see Sailor Mars and Venus standing at the doorway. They turned back around to face towards the two droids. The fire droid was the first to attack. It raised its arm towards the scouts and a ball of fire shot out. The scouts quickly dodged the attack. Sailor Jupiter countered with an attack of her own. "JUPITER THUNDERCLAP ZAP," shouted Sailor Jupiter. The ball of electricity passed through the droid with no effect at all on it. The other droid decided to attack. It raised its arm towards Sailor Venus and fired out a blue mist. It hit her from behind and she froze into a block of ice. "No, Sailor Venus," cried the scouts. They never noticed the fire droid from behind them attack. The fire headed towards the scouts. They all turned, but it was too late. A rose flew in front of the ball of fire only a few inches away from the scouts. They looked up at Tuxedo Mask standing on a frozen shelf. "Sailor Scouts," said Tuxedo Mask, "If you use their powers against them, they can be defeated." Sailor Mars and Sailor Mercury nodded their heads in understandment. Sailor Mercury walked towards the fire droid. The droid attacked, but she quickly dodged it and countered with her own. "SHINE AQUA ILLUSION," shouted Sailor Mercury. The droid jumped over the attack and landed behind her. It shot a fireball at her. It made contact, and she flew against a frozen shelf. Sailor Mars walked towards the ice droid and stopped about five feet from it. "MARS CELESTIAL FIRE SURROUND," shouted Sailor Mars. The droid quickly dodged the fire rings and attacked Sailor Mars. She jumped out of the way at the last second. The fire droid was walking towards the injured Sailor Mercury who was lying against a frozen bookshelf. When the droid got up to her, it raised out its arm towards the scout. The droid suddenly turned to steam. The black crystal fell to the ground and the dark moon symbol faded away from it. Sailor Mars dodged another attack sent by the droid. She heard Sailor Moon shout, "No, Sailor Jupiter!" Sailor Mars turned around to see what happened. Sailor Jupiter was a block of ice. Sailor Mars angrily turned towards the droid to see the blue mist coming straight for her. Sailor Moon jumped in its path at the last second, taking the full attack. "Sailor Moon," shouted both Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Mars. Tuxedo Mask caught the frozen Sailor Moon before she hit the ground. Sailor Mars turned to the droid again to see it looking down at the frozen scout and Tuxedo Mask. "MARS CELESTIAL FIRE SURROUND," shouted Sailor Mars. The attack took the droid completely by surprise. It turned to steam. The black crystal fell to the ground and the dark moon symbol faded away. Tuxedo Mask stepped away from Sailor Moon when she started to turn back to normal. He disappeared out a nearby window. Sailor Moon slowly started to wake up. 'I could have sworn that Tuxedo Mask was here,' thought Sailor Moon. *** Serena was walking home after the long battle that she just fought. For no reason, she looked to the left and saw Darien talking to Troy. She broke into a run and ran all the way home. She ran into the house to see four girls waiting there. Amy, Lita, Mina, and Raye. "What are you guys doing here," asked Serena who obviously had been crying a moment ago. "We just wanted to see how you're doing," said Lita, "and good thing we did come. What's bothering you now? Is it still Darien?" Serena nodded her head. "Serena," said Raye with an angry tone in her voice, "you're really overreacting. You have to stop always thinking negative." "Yeah Serena," agreed Mina, "This is just a big misunderstanding." The other three nodded in agreement. Serena nodded too. "I guess you're right," said Serena, "just…I don't even know. I just have a strange feeling. Let me try to forget it though." "Yeah, Serena," said Lita, "just try to get it out of your head. Hey! How about we all go out for some ice cream." "Hey, I can use a good treat. How about you, Serena," said Mina. Serena's sad face went away and was replaced by a little smile. She quickly nodded her head. Amy and Raye nodded their heads too. They all left the house to go to the ice cream shop, picking up Reenie who just happened to be walking home from school. The girls got to the shop and walked up to the counter. Serena stared at all the ice cream with bright eyes before speaking up. "I'll have a double banana split," said Serena. Reenie ordered the same thing. Whenever they go somewhere, those two always got the same exact thing. The other girls giggled before ordering small cups of ice cream. After everyone got their orders, they sat down at a corner booth. Raye, Amy, Lita, and Mina couldn't get their eyes off the two biggest sundaes they have ever seen getting eaten in only a few minutes. After Serena and were both done eating their sundaes, they were licking their bowls totally clean. A familiar figure walked into the shop and went up to the counter to order a chocolate shake. He sat down at the table next to the girls. "Hey Troy," said Lita. The other girls all rolled their eyes as Lita got up and sat back down at his table. They both talked for about five minutes until Lita stood back up. "Come on," said Lita, "Let me introduce you to some of my friends." She pulled him out of his seat and dragged him to her table. "This is Raye," said Lita. Troy shook her hand, "and this is Mina," Troy shook her hand too. Mina smiled at him, "You've met Amy, and this is Serena." Serena reached over to shake his hand. "Nice to meet you, Serena," said Troy. Serena answered, "Nice meeting you…" Serena paused when their eyes came into contact. They glared at each other for about two minutes, not even hearing Serena's friends calling to them. "Princess Serenity," asked Troy. Serena just stared for another minute before answering, "Prince Lenience?"
