Betrayal Chapter Two
Serena Betrayed?
by
Sandra Solaria Dees
Where we last left off in Part 1...
2 days later:
"Mercury Bubbles Blast!" Sailor Mercury cried as she released her power on the new youma that had attacked the park. (AN: Why the NegaVerse do they
always attack there? P.S. I used NegaVerse instead of Hell. They're pretty much the same. ::: Snicker:::)
"Mars Flame Sniper!" Mars yelled as she attacked, as the youma was franticly looking for the scouts from within Mercury's fog.
"Where the hell is Sailor Moon?" Jupiter yelled over the youma's screeches.
***********************************************************************
Meanwhile, Sailor Moon had problems of her own.
"You'll be part of the Black Star, when we're through with you!" One of the youma yelled.
Sailor Moon took out her communicator, but the other youma used one of its tentacles to knock it out of the way. The other knocked Sailor Moon to the ground.
"Ahh!" She cried as she hit the ground. The one with tentacles wrapped one around her neck and lifted her up into the air. Electricity coursed through the
tentacle and Sailor Moon.
"Ahh!" She cried again.
"Solar Beam Disperse!" A voice cried.
A bright beam of light slashed across the tentacle and Sailor Moon dropped to the ground with a cry.
"In the name of the Moon, Earth, and Sun, I am Sailor Sun, here to punish you!" A girl in a yellow sailor suit stepped out and added, "Sailor Moon, use you
scepter to send these guys back to where they belong!"
"Right!" Sailor Moon said as she took out her scepter. "Moon Scepter Mutilation!"
"Solar Tier Death!" Sailor Sun shouted as she aimed at the youma. On top of her tier was a small heart shaped pendant filled with a yellow-cleared liquid?
"Black Star will have its Queen!" They shouted as they disintegrated.
Sailor Moon shuddered.
"Good work, Sere," Sailor Sun said.
"Who are you and how do you know my name?"
"You'll find out soon enough. Your communicator broke when it hit the ground. Your friends are in trouble at the park," Sailor Sun said. "You must hurry to
them, or I fear my visions of the future may change."
Sailor Moon's eyes widened as she watched Sailor Sun vanish.
***********************************************************************
Back at the park...
"Venus Spiral Heart Incineration Inferno!"
"Jupiter Thunder Rings Slice!"
"Goddamn it! Where the hell is Sailor Moon?" Mars said angrily.
"Mercury Aqua Waves Splash!"
"Mars Burning Ice Char!"
"Moon Scepter Mutilation!" Sailor Moon's voice cried over the others. She had run with all of her might to prove Sailor Sun's words wrong.
"Black Star will have its queen!" The youma turned to dust.
"That's the third one Moon Dusted today!" Sailor Moon sighed.
"Where the Hell where you!?" Mercury screamed.
"Amy, calm down! Sheesh," Sailor Moon said. "I had to take care of two other youma that attacked me. My communicator was busted, but Sailor Sun told me
that you had a youma here."
"Sailor Sun?! That's your best excuse?" Sailor Mars said.
"Serena, you aren't fit to be leader!" Sailor Jupiter said.
Sailor Moon looked to Sailor Mercury and Venus for help. Mercury shook her head and Venus looked away.
"Fine. If that's the way you all feel," Sailor Moon said as she reached for her broach. She took it off the bow and detransformed. Then she threw it to the
ground in front of Mars.
"Great Meatball head, detransform in the middle of the park why don't you?" Mars said.
"I already did, Raye," Serena said as she ran away.
***********************************************************************
Serena cried as she ran to Darien's apartment.
When she reached his door, she took out her spare key.
"One of the symbols of true love," She giggled as she stuck the key in the door and blinked away the tears. She opened the door and stepped inside.
"Darien! It's me!" She said.
"I'm in the kitchen," came the answer.
Serena ran to the kitchen and saw Darien sitting at the table, drinking a cup of coffee. He had dark circles under his eyes, like he had been awake for two
days. Serena quickly forgot about her problems.
"What's wrong, Muffin?" Serena asked as she kissed his cheek.
"I was at the battle," Darien said to her.
"At the park?"
"Yeah. Where were you, really?" Darien asked, anger slowly coming into his voice.
"I was battling two other youma and almost was moon dust myself but Sailor Sun saved me," Serena defended herself.
"I agree with the scouts," Serena gasped, no one believed her, not even her love," You are not fit to be leader."
Serena backed away.
"No one believes me," She whispered as she turned away and ran out the apartment.
***********************************************************************
Serena ran to her apartment, her eyes brimmed with tears.
'Thank Serenity Luna isn't here,' Serena thought as she went inside her apartment.
She grabbed her three suitcases hidden in the hall closet and threw them on her bed. She opened them, gathered small belongings and cloths and put them in
the suitcases.
An hour later...
Serena had finished packing, had called the airport, and reserved a seat on the soonest flight to America, which was in three hours. She used the name
Serena Moon. She would be landing in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Her ticket was one way.
Serena sat down at her computer and began a new book.
She typed for two hours and saved the story to disk. She then took out two pages of notebook paper and wrote on the first one:
Dear Mom, Dad, and Sammy,
I'm gone. I will not be back for a long time, so do not worry about me. You will not know where I am, so do not come looking for me. I'll come back someday; but
it won't be for a long time. I'm gone because I can't live here anymore, in this place.
Love,
Serena
She folded the paper over and set it a side. She wrote on the second one:
Dear Amy, Raye, Mina, Lita, Hotaru, Amarrah, Michelle, Trista, and Darien,
I'm gone. Just like you all wanted. Outers, I know you wanted me gone too, but you never let it on. Trista is the new leader because she only wants me gone
because she knows that I have to go. It is in the timeline, and even if it wasn't, it is now.
Be happy now, for I'm gone, maybe never to return; maybe to never be queen. It is what you all wanted.
Goodbye,
Serena
She folded the second note as well. She put the two notes in her pocket and gathered her suitcases.
***********************************************************************
On the way to the airport, Serena stopped at her parents and stuck the note in the mailbox. She had done the same with the scouts' note.
She had arrived at the airport about thirty minutes early and that left her sitting next to a man who looked remarkably like Darien, only he had brown hair that
was in a bowl cut and the top was dyed blonde.
She noticed he looked at her in an odd way. He caught her eye and smiled.
"I'm Seth Dees," He said, sticking out his hand in a friendly way.
Serena took it and said, "Hi! I'm Serena Tsuki..." she stopped; thinking that she shouldn't any name except for her new one.
"Tsuki? That's Japanese for Moon isn't it?" Seth asked.
"Yes, it is," Serena said. "You're not from here, are you?"
"That obvious?" Seth smiled.
Serena nodded her head.
"My wife taught me your language," Seth said.
"You're married?"
"For almost four years."
"Wow. Is your wife really interested in our country?"
"Very much so. She thinks its fascinating just because she heard about your national super heroines," Seth told her.
"You mean the Sailor Scouts?"
Seth nodded his head.
"I'm sure if they heard that, they'd say that they're not all that great like that," Serena said, looking down so he wouldn't see her blush. "Most super heroes are
very modest. Um...so, why'd you come to Japan?" Serena changed the subject.
"Med. conference," Seth said.
"Oh, are you a doctor?"
"Yes."
"What type? I mean, one of my ex-friends is going to be a pediatrician and my ex-fiancé is a surgeon," Serena said.
"I'm a pediatrician, too. I love kids," Seth said.
"I love kids too, but sometimes they can be annoying," Serena told him.
"I know. My daughter, Dipi, is almost six and can be very aggravating at times," Seth agreed.
"Most kids are like that," Serena said. "Um... is Dipi short for something?"
"Yes, it's short for Serendipity," Seth replied.
"That's such a pretty name..." Serena trailed off.
"Flight number G97 is now boarding!"
"That's my flight," Seth and Serena said at the same time, standing up. They laughed.
"What class you flying in?" Seth asked.
"Coach. It was cheapest," Serena replied.
"Me too. I may be a doctor, but I‘m cheep," Seth said, picking up his carry-on luggage. Serena picked up hers.
"Sit together?" Serena asked.
"Sure. I don't like sitting by strangers for eight hours."
"I'm a stranger," Serena said.
"Not really," Seth said.
'Why does that sound so familiar?' Serena asked herself.
Serena dismissed the thought and smiled.
"So, where are you going?" Seth asked her as they walked towards Gate # G97.
"Just anywhere, I guess. I just have to get away from here," Serena looked down.
"Oh..." Seth said. "Well, if you haven't anywhere to stay, you can come to Arkansas with me and stay at in the extra room at my house."
"Won't your wife mind?" Serena asked.
"No. In fact she'd make me sleep on the couch for a month if I didn't at least offer for you to come stay with us."
"You really wouldn't mind?" Serena asked, amazed.
Seth shook his head.
"How are we going to get to Arkansas?" Serena agreed.
"Sandra, my wife, is going to pick us up in Tulsa, and drive us back to our home in Fort Smith," Seth told her.
"Tickets, please," the flight attendant asked them. They produced their tickets from their pockets.
"Have a nice flight," she said as she waved them through and went to the next people in line.
"Your wife sounds like a nice person," Serena said.
"Only when nobody aggravates her," Seth laughed.
"Are you sure you want to live for a while with two people like that?"
"It wouldn't matter if you were the world's meanest monster, if my wife knew that you were good at heart, she'd show you," Seth said. "I feel that way too."
Serena smiled. " Is Dipi like her mom and dad?"
" Sure is. She makes everybody feel like it's the happiest day in the world."
"Sounds like somebody I know," Serena said, thinking of Reni.
"Who?" Seth asked as they walked down the corridor to the plane.
"My cousin, Reni," Serena replied, using what Reni had used when she had hypnotized Serena's parents.
"Isn't Reni short for Serenity?"
"Yeah," Serena said, shakily.
"My wife has a brother and a sister, they're triplets, and were separated when they were babies, and her sister was named something like Serenity," Seth
said. "We've found her brother, but her sister is still out here somewhere."
They boarded the plane in silence, until the plane started taxiing down the runway.
"Have you ever ridden a plane before?" Seth asked.
"No," Serena replied.
"Your ears will pop when we take off, and when we land," Seth said.
"Yeah, I've heard about that before. It's supposed to be really annoying," Serena sounded aggravated.
"It is. But all you have to do is yawn," Seth agreed.
A few seconds later, their ears popped. They both yawned simultaneously.
They turned to each other and laughed.
"So, what kind of work do you do?" Seth asked her.
"I'm a writer," Serena said. "My pen name is Kevee Topazia."
"Really? My wife has both of your books," Seth told her.
"Really? What does your wife do? Is she just a homemaker?" Serena asked.
" She's a writer too. She uses a pen name to. It's a shortened version of her first name and a shortened version of her maiden name."
"Well you said that her first name was Sandra, so I'm guessing that she used Sandy," Serena said.
"Yep. And her maiden name is Patterson," Seth said.
"Sandy Pattè!" Serena gasped. "She is my all time favorite writer!"
"That's weird. You're her favorite writer, and she's your favorite writer," Seth said.
"And know we're both going to be living in the same house for a while!" Serena said.
"I know. Sandra won't make me sleep on the couch when she gets mad," Seth smiled.
"Women have always ruled over the men," Serena laughed.
***********************************************************************
Somewhere in space...
"King Mishata," a girl's voice said.
"Yes, what is it?" He growled at being disturbed.
"I have detected that the Princess is no longer in Japan," the girl aid.
"What?" King Mishata jumped up.
"I'm afraid that Janer's plan failed."
"Janer!' King Mishata called.
Janer appeared in front of the two.
"Yes, m'king?"
"Mani has informed me that Serenity is no longer in Japan."
"Yes sire, I know. My plan is to capture the Princess when she is away from her court so the cannot protect her," Janer replied.
"Hoe do you know that she is without her protectors?" Mani sneered.
"I've infected them with nightmares of her betraying them and that's what caused the Princess to leave Japan; them believing their nightmares. I've turned them
into the betrayers and her betrayee!" Janer laughed. (AN: Is betrayee a word?::: smile:::)
"You had best be successful with this plan, because this is your last chance," King Mishata said angrily. Janer stopped laughing and cringed.
"Don't worry your majesty. I will not fail," Janer said as he disappeared.
"There are Sailor Scouts where the Princess is going."
"Then follow Janer and get rid of him."
"As you wish, your highness."
***********************************************************************
Serena fell asleep soon after the plane was up in the air for an hour.
A few hours later, Seth shook her awake.
"I don't wanna get up, Luna," Serena mumbled.
"Serena, we're about to land," Seth said.
"Just five more minutes...snore."
Seth sweat-dropped.
He tried some more and finally woke her up.
"Serena, we're about to land," he said.
"Okay," Serena yawned as she put her seat belt on.
She almost fell back asleep but the popping of her ears kept her awake. She yawned for both tiredness and the un-popping of her ears.
***********************************************************************
Back in Tokyo...
"I kinda feel bad," Amy said as the inners walked back to the temple.
"Why should we be?" Raye argued as she felt the locket it her pocket as they left the café where they stopped to eat.
"What if she was telling the truth?"
"I highly doubt that," Raye snorted.
"I think we should apologize," Mina said.
"Why?!" Lita argued. "So she can come back and try to abandon us so we get killed?"
"She could of been telling the truth!" Amy said. She was feeling so guilty that she missed her grammatical error (AN: Amy's grammatical error was 'of been'
because 'of' is the wrong word. 'Of' is a preposition while the correct word would have been 'have' because in that sentence a helping verb is needed in
front of the second helping verb and the main verb. 'Have been telling' is the verb phrase and 'of' would have been incorrect. In fact, when I typed that
sentence on Microsoft Word, it corrected it and I had to change it back.) (AN: Oh and if you're wondering why I didn't just make the sentence the correct way,
it's because Amy is so distraught that she made a mistake, which the Amy would never normally do.)
Suddenly screams where heard from the park.
"Not again," Mina moaned.
"Mars Crystal Power!"
"Jupiter Crystal Power!"
"Venus Crystal Power!"
"Mercury Crystal Power!"
The four finished transforming and ran to the park.
When they got there, they noticed a girl protecting a small girl from the youma.
"You stay away from this girl! She had done nothing to you and yet you take her energy; just so you can take Serenity to your world!" The girl yelled.
The scouts gasped.
"You thing you can stop me?" The youma yelled at her.
"You bet your Black Star ass I can!" The girl yelled. The scouts gasped again.
"Solar Crystal Power!"
"What the..." Venus trailed off.
"I am Sailor Sun, champion of love, justice, and honesty! I stand for the friendships of the world and in the name of the Sun, Moon, and Earth, I will triumph over
all evil!" She shouted.
The inners looked at each other.
"Serena was telling the truth!"
***********************************************************************
As Seth and Serena exited the plane, Seth grabbed his head.
"What is it?" Serena asked.
"Just a headache," Seth grunted as they walked down the corridor." Get 'em all the time."
Serena felt a slight pain in her head but dismissed it as the knot on the back of her head that she'd gotten earlier when she was thrown to the ground by the
youma.
"Hey Seth?"
"Hm?"
"When we were at the airport, why were you looking at me in that strange way?" Serena asked.
"Because you look just like Sandra after she got her contacts and let her hair grow out and cut off the dyed part," Seth said.
"Really?"
"Yeah. Even the 'Meatball head' hairstyle," Seth said.
Serena paled and was haunted by a flashback.
{"Hey watch it Meatball Head!"}
{"Serena you are such a Meatball Head!"}
"She has my hairstyle?"
"Actually, it's her mom's," Seth replied.
{"And that's my hair style, kid!" Serena said to the pink hared girl who'd fallen out of the sky.
"No, it's my mom's hair style."}
Apparently, Seth saw someone and motioned Serena to follow him.
When Serena got closer, she gasped.
"Seiya, Yaten, Taiki!" She ran to them.
"Dumpling?" Seiya said as he hugged her.
"You guys know each other?" Seth asked.
"Yeah! I helped them back in Tokyo a couple years ago," Serena said.
"But why are you here instead of Sandra?" Seth asked.
"Mummy had some 'portent business to take care of," a small voice said from behind Yaten.
A small girl, about five, came from behind Yaten and jumped into Seth's arms. Serena did a double take. She looked just like Reni only she had red hair instead
of pink.
"Hey, Dips!" Seth said as he hugged her.
"Daddy! Don't call me Dips!"
"Why are you here instead of in Tokyo?" Serena asked.
"We didn't want to get in the way of your *friends*," Yaten said.
"You mean ex-friends," Serena said, looking down.
"Daddy, you know you can't have girlfriends without Mummy's 'mission," Dipi said.
"Why are you here? And why aren't they your friends anymore?" Taiki asked.
"I'll tell you later," Serena said.
"I wanna go home because I want Aunt Becky to meet Aunt Serena," Dipi said.
Serena looked surprised.
"You guys didn't say my name did you?" Serena asked.
"No why?" Seiya said.
"Because Dipi just called me Aunt Serena and she didn't know my name," Serena said.

The end of Part 2! Cliffhanger!!!!!!
Sandra: Yah I know. It's a cliffhanger. Cliffhangers are good if the next part is up. I hate cliffhangers if the next part isn't there. It leaves you wanting to read
