Finding Destiny
Part 3
By Angel Love
Author's Notes: I have to remind everyone that Malachite and Zoicite are not lovers in this fic, they are just partners and close friends.
Standard disclaimers apply. I don't own Sailor Moon, even if I wished on a hundred stars I still won't own Sailor Moon. So don't sue me!
"Meow."
Darien's head snapped away from the lake to look at the grass between Serena and himself. There sat two cats, one black and one white, both with yellow crescent moons on their foreheads. He noticed that were looking at him. He could almost swear that there was almost a human intelligence behind their cat faces.
"Hello, Luna," Serena said, rubbing the black cat's head in greeting. "Hello Artemis." She briefly stroked the white cats fur.
"Meow," Luna answered, while climbing into Serena's lap for more petting.
A little surprised by Serena's soft loving tone towards the cats, Darien gazed at Serena longingly, until he felt Artemis nudge his hand. "You want attention, don't you?" Darien chuckled low, as he complied with the cat's demand. "Are both of these cats yours? I think I remember you with the black cat," Darien asked her, his voice husky with his longing for the small girl who used her soft voice with him instead of her usual loud shouts of rage.
Serena smiled brightly at him. "Luna is mine," She motioned towards the cat in her lap. "But Artemis belongs to my friend Mina," She motioned towards the white cat, who was now making himself completly comfortable in Darien's lap.
"Which of your friends is Mina?" Darien asked. He wasn't sure why, but he was enjoying the soft voice Serena was using and wanted to keep her talking to him.
"Mina is the girl with long blond hair and big blue eyes. She is really sweet," Serena rewarded him with another dazzling smile.
"Tell me about your friends." Darien asked softly. A bit surprised, Serena looked up at Darien with confused eyes. "Please," He begged gently, seeing her puzzlement.
Briefly searching his eyes, the petite blonde saw only sincerity there, so she decided to do as he wished. She didn't notice that the cats had shared a knowing look with each other. "Um... okay. Mina is usually really happy and loves to do things to cheer people up. But she has a serious side that not very many people see. She is really hard on herself sometimes. She loves to shop and play video games."
"So not only does she look a bit like you, but she acts like you too," Darien joked, but this time in a friendly voice, not the usual condescending one he usually used where Serena was concerned. He could picture two twin hurricanes running down the street, avoiding hitting people by mere inches.
Serena laughed softly, a sound that did strange things to Darien's insides. "I guess you could say that. But she is really graceful, not at all clumsy like me." Serena looked down and blushed bright red as she remembered all of the times that she had literally ran into Darien.
'Well at least I don't have to worry about two blondes running me over on a daily basis. I would prefer just this one.' Darien thought to himself, oblivious to Serena's embarrassment. "Go on," he urged her.
"Um... Lita is the tall girl with brown hair that is usually in a ponytail, and really pretty green eyes. She tends to get into a lot of fights, but she is a really great cook. She likes to take care of us all, kinda like a bodyguard." Serena's eyes danced as she talked about her tall friend. "Then there is Raye. She is the girl with raven-colored hair and violet eyes. She is a priestess in training. She likes to do fire-readings and stuff like that. She has a really bad temper, but she's cool." Serena giggled at the look she could see on Raye's face if she heard her say that. "Amy is the girl with short blue hair and blue eyes. She's a genius. I guess you could say that she and I are exact opposites." Serena laughed a little.
Darien was a little baffled about all of the information Serena had just given him. "How do you guys manage to get along with each other?" He couldn't image having that many friends with that many different personalities. He only really had one friend and that was Andrew. And he knew there were times that he and Andrew didn't get along so great.
Serena laughed again. "We don't always," she answered truthfully. "Raye and I fight about almost everything. But we would do anything for the other. We all would. That is the way we are." Serena offered him a bright smile. "Well, I gotta book it or else I'll be late for dinner. I don't want mom to kill me today." She got up and placed Luna on her shoulder. Artemis jumped off of Darien's lap and bounded onto Serena's other shoulder.
Darien rose to his feet, unsure of what to do for the first time in his life. He had never expected that he would ever enjoy a nice quiet time with Serena. He was usually dodging her or something that belonged to her. "Um, Serena..." Darien began.
Serena looked up at Darien, very surprised. She had never heard Darien say her name before; it was usually 'Meatball Head'. She liked the way he said it.
Darien noticed her startled look and was instantly concerned. "What's wrong?"
"You've never called me 'Serena' before," she answered, a little dazed at the concern she saw shining in Darien's eyes. 'Maybe he isn't so heartless after all.'
"I could call you Meatball Head if it would make you feel better," he said with a small smile.
"No. You only call me that because you hate me," Serena said quietly. Her shoulders slumped a little and she looked down at her shoes. She didn't want Darien to realize how much she cared for him. She had come to anticipate when she would see him everyday, even if it was usually at an up-close-and-personal position.
Darien tucked his large hand under her chin and pulled her face up to look at him. He noticed that his whole hand lit up on fire where his skin met hers. "I don't hate you, Serena. I could never hate you. You make my life interesting," He said softly looking into her baby blues.
Serena squealed with delight and threw her arms around Darien, dropping her feline pals unceremoniously on the ground in the process. Darien was startled for a second before he put his arms around Serena and buried his face in her sweet-smelling hair. For a minute the two relished in the feel of the other's body pressed against their own. 'It's as if we fit together,' they both thought to themselves as Serena buried her face in Darien's chest and snuggled closer to him.
Pulling away slightly, Serena looked up into Darien's clouded blue eyes and flashed him another soul-searing smile. "I really do have to go. This was nice. Thank you," Serena said as she pulled away regretfully.
Darien felt the loss of her small body immediately and grabbed one of Serena's small hands in one of his larger hands as she turned away. As she turned her face towards him expectantly, his breath caught in his throat. "Serena, I was wondering... well... I wanted to know if you would have lunch with me tomorrow at the café?"
Serena turned back fully to face Darien and grasped his hand with both of hers. Tilting her head to the side, she asked, "Like a date?"
Darien gave her a lop-sided smile. He covered their hands with his other hand. "Yea, like a date."
"Sure," Serena answered excited. She stood on her toes and kissed Darien on the cheek. "Then it is a date," she said softly, noticing the blush that spread over Darien's features and giggled. She turned and picked up the cats gracefully.
"Meet me at 12?" Darien called, as he placed a hand to his cheek.
Serena nodded without turning around and quickly took off towards her house.
Darien was still dazed as he watched her disappear. "Meatball Head just kissed me," he mused out loud. A brilliant smile made it's way across his face. He wasn't sure what just happened between him and Serena, but it felt right to him.
****************************************************
"Well, that was interesting," Artemis commented on the scene that he had just witnessed.
"I can't believe that Darien just asked me out. Me, Serena Tsukino," Serena said breathlessly with stars in her eyes. Suddenly, she stopped walking as something hit her. "Wait a minute. Luna, why aren't you yelling at me to keep my mind on scout business like you normally do?" She took the guardian cat off her shoulder and held her in front of her suspiciously.
Luna rolled her eyes. "I would, but you never listen to me. So I decided to save my breath." She wasn't sure if she wanted to tell Serena that she suspected that her and Darien were soul-mates from the Moon Kingdom. She wanted the teenager to find happiness in Darien because she wanted to, not because it was part of her past.
Suddenly, Serena's communicator beeped, stopping any further questions that Serena would have asked, much to the gratitude to the flustered cat. Serena put Luna on the ground and pulled an item out of her pocket that looked like a small calculator. She pushed the flashing button, that had the symbol of Venus on it. Sailor Venus' agitated face appeared on the small screen.
"What's up, Venus?"
"Serena, there is a youma attack in the park. We need Sailor Moon fast," Venus said urgently.
"I'll be there in a jiffy. I'm right outside of the park," Serena said, closing the connection.
Artemis jumped off Serena's shoulder, as she looked around to make sure that she was alone. Her hand shot up in the air.
"MOON PRISM POWER!!!"
Serena's clothes faded and were replaced with red ribbons that formed into her sailor fuku. She struck her normal pose, then looked down at the cats. "Let's go kick some Negaverse butt." With that, Sailor Moon turned and ran back into the park.
The cats stared at her in wonder for a second, until they too ran into the park. "She didn't even whine or complain," Luna said in amazement as they raced behind the leader of the Scouts.
"Maybe she is finally taking her scout business seriously," Artemis said hopefully. "Maybe not," He amended, as Moon suddenly stopped and looked down at the cats.
"Come here, you two," she said quietly as she scooped up the cats and leaped into a nearby tree.
"Sailor Moon, what..." Luna began, until Moon covered her mouth and pointed down. Both cats followed her hand to see Malachite concentrating on building energy. He and Zoicite were standing right on the path that Sailor Moon had been running down. They were also behind the unaware scouts, who were fighting the youma.
"Now!" Zoicite shouted, startling the unsuspecting scouts.
Sailor Moon watched in horror as her fellow scouts were trapped in an energy dome that Malachite had constructed.
"SUPREME THUNDER CRASH!"
"VENUS CRECSENT BEAM SMASH!"
"Ahhh!" the girls screamed as their attack bounced off the walls and came shooting back at them.
"MARS FIRE IGNITE!"
"Ahhh!" the girls screamed again as fire shot at them.
"Knock it off, Pyro, before you fry us!" Jupiter shouted.
"I can't find any weaknesses," Mercury cried out in alarm, scanning the dome with her visor and computer.
Outside the dome, Malachite and Zoicite appeared in front of the dome. "We are missing one," Malachite said a little frustrated, as he noticed the absence of Sailor Moon in the dome.
"Don't worry about it Mal. She isn't too much competition, especially without the help of her Sailor Failures." Zoicite huffed.
