Finding Destiny
Part 10
By Angel Love

Author's Notes: This picks up right after the last chapter. And I included a bit more romance in and a cameo appearance at the end!

Standard disclaimers apply. I will only dream of owning Sailor Moon. Maybe I should go wish upon a few stars.


Luna noticed that Serena had gone stock still, so she looked up curiously to see what had grabbed her attention so completely. Her gaze took in the sight of Darien. Somehow it didn't surprise her that he was there.

She watched his eyes reflect his emotions. At first there was appreciation for the sight in front of him. Followed by confusion, to be replaced by a sudden realization. She watched his face soften to a look of complete adoration and love.

She turned her gaze to Serena. She saw that Serena's gaze completely mirrored Darien's. Luna smiled as best as a cat can knowing that she had been right on not keeping them apart.

Darien held out his hand to Serena. She shyly took it and stepped closer to him. She accidentally dropped the rose that she was holding and stepped on it. Immediately she looked down at the smashed flower. She crouched down and picked up a few pieces and let them fall through her fingers.

"Oh, no. I smashed the flower. It was so pretty, too," she whispered quietly, as she watched the wind blow away the pieces. Her eyes filled up with unshed tears.

"Don't be upset, Serena," Darien said softly, as he knelt down next to her. He hated to see her upset about anything. A little ironic, considering he was usually going out of his way to make fun of her.

As her eyes met his, he smiled lovingly at her. He lifted his hand and flicked his wrist, producing a red rose out of thin air, something he did many times as Tuxedo Mask. Her eyes widened in amazement, as she stared at the rose.

"For you, Madame," he said with flourish, as he held out the rose for her.

With trembling hands, she took the delicate flower from him. It was a small bud that opened fully in her hand. She looked up in amazement at Darien.

"Thank you," she whispered to him.

He smiled at her and leaned close to her to whisper in her ear. "You are welcome, my love."

A soft gasp was heard from Serena, as her mind took in his endearment for her. A smile slowly spread across her face as he pulled away and offered his hand to her again. She readily accepted. Her small hand fit perfectly in his as he pulled them both into a standing position.

Darien noticed how close Serena was to him. He watched quietly as the awareness spread over her lovely features. Her face became slightly flushed, her eyes darkened and her breathing quickened. He didn't notice that he also mirrored her reaction.

Serena had never felt so close to anyone. She wanted so badly to be held in Darien's arms. As she turned desperate eyes to Darien, she gasped at the love and understanding that she saw there. Her heart sped up with the need his look spread through her.

The rose fluttered to the ground at their feet unnoticed.

Luna, sensing that these two wanted a private moment, picked up the rose and padded a few feet away from them. She looked back and rolled her cat-eyes. 'It isn't like they even know I'm here.'

Darien knew exactly what Serena wanted as her eyes searched his desperately. His hand gently tugged her closer to him, need also coursing through his veins; he wanted so much to show this small girl how much he loved her. He wrapped an arm around her waist pulling her firmly against his body, enjoying the shiver that went down her body. He let go off her hand and cupped her cheek.

Serena slid into his embrace loving the feel of his strong body against hers. She slid one arm up his arm to his shoulders. The other was pressed firmly against his hard chest. Her eyes drifted closed, anticipating what was going to happen next.

Darien slowly lowered his head to hers. He didn't want to scare her. His lips briefly brushed hers, searing his soul with her touch. He wanted more; he needed more. He looked into her eyes, searching for an answer to his unspoken need.

Serena felt her soul light on fire at his brief touch. She opened her eyes slowly as he pulled back. She saw the questions held in his eyes. She answered by sliding her other hand up to his shoulders and pulled him down for another kiss.

Darien gladly took her offer and pressed his lips firmly against hers. He slid his hand down her body and cupped her bottom as he pulled her closer to him. He gently slid his tongue across her lips, and was granted access immediately.

Serena's whole body was on fire. She had never experienced anything so intense before. In the pit of her stomach, desire uncurled itself. Serena moaned and raked her hands through Darien's hair, pulling him further into her embrace.

Darien echoed her moan as he felt his body respond to hers. He, too, had never experienced anything quite like what he was feeling with Serena. He wanted to do some much more with her. Slowly, his hands traveled over her body, sending more shivers down her body.

Slowly Serena pulled away from Darien. A shy smile spread across her face as she gazed into Darien's passion-filled eyes. Darien smiled warmly at her, and then he pulled her back against his body to cradle her. Serena nestled against him and listened to the rapid beating of his heart.

"I need to go back to my apartment to take a shower. Do you want to accompany me?" Darien asked, while he stroked her back.

Serena's head shot up. She looked up at Darien with wide eyes, her body tense. Fear shot through her, but she didn't fear being intimate with him, she feared that she wanted it so badly.

Darien chuckled softly. "I meant to my apartment, not my shower, meatball head."

His hand lovingly caressed her cheek. 'Although I would love for you to join me in the shower,' he thought to himself.

Serena's body relaxed into Darien's, as she leaned into his caress, her eyes drifting closed. "I'd love to," she whispered low.

If her eyes were open she would have seen Darien's eyes darken with unmistakable desire.

Darien wrapped an arm around her shoulder, and she opened her eyes. Somehow, this didn't scare either of them. They knew that they had a destiny together, and were both willing to walk their path togethe, trusting that the other would always be there to lean on.

"Then let's go."

He started to lead her in the direction of his apartment.

"Wait." The blonde turned around, her eyes scanning the area around them. A smile spread across her face when she saw what she was looking for.

There sat her guardian cat basking in the sun. In front of her sat the forgotten red rose.

"Luna!" Serena called to her cat.

Luna glanced up at the sound of her name. "Meow," she responded when she saw her mistress waiting for her. She picked up the rose and ran towards the couple.

Serena scooped up the cat and took the rose from her mouth. "My rose! Thank you, Luna."

Serena beamed at the small black cat, as she settled herself on Serena's shoulders. Serena moved back into Darien's awaiting arms, and together they walked out of the park.

********************************************************

Watching silently from the shadows were two women. They smiled at each other.

Sailor Destiny looked back at the retreating couple, smiling broadly. "Now they have found each other."

Sailor Love put her arm around her sister. "Their love will conquer all."

Destiny frowned, her mind clouded with the image of the crumbled Moon Kingdom. "I hope so, Angel."

Love squeezed her, knowing what was going through the other girl's mind. Twins were strange like that, of course with the fact that these twins were also three-thousand or more years old and had mental telepathy helped.

"I know it, Rose. As long as they have each other, they will win."

Destiny flicked her hand and her staff appeared. "Unfortunately, they have a great many battles to face. Beryl is just the first."

Love waved her hand gracefully her staff appeared. "I know. But this is their fate. We cannot change that."

Destiny smiled softly at her sister, sometimes Love showed much more wisdom than her personality let it seem she had. "I know that. Sometimes I wish I could change it though." She held up her staff and the silver heart glowed slightly. A door appeared behind them.

Love then held up her staff, the golden heart glowed slightly as the door opened. "And what would the Sailor Scout of Destiny want with screwing up destiny?" Love joked lightly.

"Let's go see what our other dear sister is doing," Love smiled at the thought of seeing their sister after such a long time.

Destiny nodded her agreement.

They both turned and walked through the door and it vanished as if it had never been there.
