Rating: PG

Amy: I can't believe that she's gone!

Jupiter: We're here where did Amanda go?

CMoon: I think we're a little late.

Everyone gets big sweatdrops.

Serena: The monster took her. The one with feathers!

Mars: We should have gotten here quicker.

Venus: Then, we might have been able to save her.

Serena: Well there's nothing we can do now but wait and search for Amanda.

Amy: I guess so. I still can't believe they got her. I PROMISE YOU AMANDA I WILL FIND YOU!

Scene: Serena and Darien's Apartment

Serena: Darien, are you home?

Darien: I'm in the bedroom.

Serena: Ok, I'm coming.

Darien: Why do you look so sad Serena?

Serena: Amanda's gone.

Darien: What?!

Serena: The enemy got her and we still don't know what it is or how to stop it. What's worse is that it's tearing up Amy real bad and when Amy's feeling upset it makes me upset.

Darien: I take it you don't want to try tonight for….

Serena: No I still want to try tonight, but let's do it later, ok?

Darien: That's ok. Why do you look so tired?

Serena: It's probably just from trying to fight off the enemy. I'll be ok.

Darien: Alright, but I want you to rest this afternoon for tonight.

Serena: I will as long as you're with me.

Darien: No one will be able to drag me away.

Serena: Thanks.

Darien: I'd do anything for you my meatball head.

Serena lays down on the bed and puts her head on Darien's chest and falls asleep while Darien is reading his book.

Darien: (thinking) I wonder why she's been more tired than usual lately. It's weird even for her to sleep this much. I might want to get her to see a doctor. Yeah I'll ask her to go tomorrow morning. She looks so peaceful laying there asleep just like an angel.

Later he gets up and goes to take shower and Serena wakes up. Darien gets in the shower and doesn't notice that Serena is in the room. After a couple minutes he hears the shower curtain move and looks back and there is Serena.

Darien: I thought you were asleep.

Serena: I was but I feel rested now. I'm ready and reran for action.

Darien: That's my meatball head.

They start kissing and then they get out of the shower dry off and get into bed.

Serena: Don't forget to lock the door or else Luna will come in.

Darien: Don't worry I won't forget. I don't want her walking in here again. Has she ever done something like that while you were living at home?

Serena: Yes, she keeps saying she's my guardian so she has to protect me every moment. I never got to have much of a private life, but ever since I moved in her she's been backing off a little. I think its cause she knows that I have you to protect me.

Darien: You know I'll always be there for you, don't you?

Serena: Yep and I'll always be there for you to.

Darien: Serena, I'd like you to see a doctor about how sleepy you've been lately. You've slept a whole lot more than usual lately.

Serena: But I'm fine.

Darien: I know, I just want to make completely sure that there's nothing wrong, alright?

Serena: Alright, I'll go tomorrow.

Scene: Doctor's Office

Serena: I'm here for my appointment.

Nurse: The doctor will see you in a minute. Also, you're due for a full physical so the doctor will be giving you one today.

Serena: Does that include drawing blood?

Nurse: Yes, it does.

Serena: Oh, no I hate needles!

Doctor: I'm ready for my next appointment nurse.

Serena: I'm here.

Doctor: Serena, I didn't know you had an appointment today.

Serena: Darien suggested I come in because I've been so exhausted lately.

Doctor: Well come on in and we'll start your physical.

Scene: After the physical

Doctor: Bye Serena. I'll call you with the results of the tests.

Serena: Alright, Bye!

Scene: Serena and Darien's Apartment

Serena: Hello anyone home? I guess no one's home. I think I'll take a little nap. Yawn!

Serena changes into her nightgown and gets into bed and falls asleep. Later the phone rings and Serena wakes up and answers the phone.

Serena: Hello. Oh, Hi Doctor. Yes, ok. WHAT! Yes, thank you, Bye.

Darien: Serena, I'm home.

Serena: Hi Darien! I missed you.

They kiss.

Darien: I missed you too. Where's Rini?

Serena: She's on the balcony. She's really down about Amanda being gone. I can't blame her one bit though. She's just had her best friend taken away from her. Later Raye's supposed to take her to the park.

Darien: Where did this maternal rush come from?

Serena: So you're saying I couldn't be a good mother. I can't believe you'd say that!

Serena runs out of the apartment crying and Darien feels guilty and yet confused.

Darien: (thinking) I wonder what made act like that. I'd better go see Rini before trying to find Serena so that she has time to cool off.

Rini: Hey Darien.

Darien: What's the matter Rini?

Rini: I miss Amanda.

Darien: Well I have something that will make you feel a little better, I hope.

Rini: What is it?

Darien pulls out a picture of Rini and Amanda at the beach together having fun.

Rini: Thanks Darien. It did make me feel a little better.

Darien: Told you so. (thinking) Now that I've cheered her up I have to find Serena and apologize for what ever it is I've done.

Scene: Lita's Apartment

Serena rings the doorbell.

Lita: Hold on a moment. Who is it?

Serena: (sobbingly) It's me Lita, Serena.

Lita opens the door.

Lita: What's wrong?

They walk inside.

Serena: I feel just awful.

Lita: About what?

Serena: I yelled at Darien and he didn't deserve it. I just couldn't help it. I'd just gotten some big news (says big news very softly) and I was very confused and then we got into a conversation about Rini. Then he asked where the maternal rush had come from and I got mad because it sounded like he was saying that I couldn't be a good mother.

Lita: Wow that's a mouthful. Why did you come here? I thought for sure if something like this happened that you'd go to Mina's or Amy's.

Serena: I wanted your opinion this time. Darien won't know that I'm here because I took your phone number out of the address book and took it with me. Plus I knew you could keep a secret.

Lita: What secret and what big news?

Serena whispers into Lita's ear.

Serena: That's why I got upset.

Lita: Oh!

Scene: Serena and Darien's Apartment

Darien: Hello Amy. Have you seen Serena today?

Amy: No I haven't. Why?

Darien: No specific reason just trying to find her.

Amy: Sorry I couldn't help you. Bye.

Darien: I've tried all the girls and not one of them has seen her at all today. That's strange. There's a page missing from the address book. Ok, which of the girls have I called? I called Amy, Raye, Mina, and… Wait I haven't called Lita and now I know why. Her phone number is missing from the address book. Serena must have ripped it out so I couldn't call Lita. So that's where she is.

Scene: Lita's Apartment

Lita: Obviously Darien's going to find out you're here sooner or later and you've got to tell him sooner or later.

Serena: When he does come don't tell him, please? I want to tell him myself later when we're alone.

Lita: Alright, but you have to promise to tell him.

Serena: I will I promise. Thank you Lita. You're a true friend.

Just then the doorbell rings.

Lita: Who is it?

Darien: It's me Darien. Is Serena there?

Lita: (softly) Serena go hide in my bedroom if you don't want to see him yet.

Serena: (softly) Thanks Lita.

Lita: Coming. Oh hi Darien. Who are the roses for?

Darien: There're for Serena. Is she here?

Serena peeks through the door and sees the roses and how worried Darien looks and starts to cry.

Darien: What's that noise? It sounds like Serena crying! Serena is that you?

Serena: Yes!

Serena walks out of the bedroom. Her face is stained with tears.

Lita: I have to go out and get something for a recipe so I'll leave you two alone for a while.

Lita leaves.

Darien: I'm sorry for what I said and these are to prove I'm sincere.

He hands her a bouquet of long stem red roses.

Serena: Oh Darien their beautiful!

Darien: Not as beautiful as you.

Serena: I'm sorry that I ran out of the apartment like that.

Darien: It's okay. I was an idiot to say something like that anyway. You'd be a great mother. Obviously Rini's a very good example.

He leans over and kisses her.

Darien: So what do you say about going home.

Serena: I'd love to.

Scene: Raye's House

Lita: Yeah, Serena got mad at Darien and came over to my apartment and you know what he brought her.

Raye: No, what did he bring her?

Lita: A dozen long stem red roses!

Mina: Wow how romantic!

Raye: That is romantic. They have the smallest fight and he brings her roses.

Amy: That is so cool!

Lita: (thinking) I hope Serena tells him soon. If the girls catch wind of even a clue I'm toast. They'll fry me for knowing and not telling them, but I made a promise to Serena not to tell.

Raye: Well, I have to go I promised to take Rini to the park today.

All: Bye!

Scene: Serena and Darien's Apartment

The doorbell rings.

Darien: Serena, could you get that please?

Serena: Alright! Hi Raye!

Raye: Hi Serena! I've come to take Rini to the park like I promised.

Serena: Thanks. I'd take her, but I'm just so exhausted and Darien has to finish a paper for school.

Rini: Hi Raye!

Raye: Hi Rini! Ready to go to the park?

Rini: Sure! Bye Darien. Bye Serena.

Raye: Bye!

Raye and Rini leave and Darien comes out of the bedroom.

Darien: Was that Raye?

Serena: Yeah, she came to take Rini to the park.

Darien: Good that'll take Amanda of Rini's mind for a while.

Serena: It'll also give us some time alone.

Darien: Now that's the part that I really like.

Serena: Good because we need to talk about how to find Amanda.

Darien: (big sweatdrop)Oh! Well I have to finish that paper that's due soon.

Serena: I thought you wanted to talk. (sarcastically) Or did you have other things in mind.

Darien: Now that you've said something. Yes I did.

Serena: I know I was just joking.

Darien: I knew that.

Serena: (thinking) Yeah sure he knew.

Scene: The next morning.

Darien has just woken up and realized that Serena isn't in bed.

Darien: Serena, were are you?

Then he hears the sound of someone becoming sick in the bathroom.

Darien: Serena, is that you?

Serena: Yeah.

Serena gets sick again.

Darien: Are you ok?

Serena: (thinking) I don't want him to get suspicious so I'd better say that I have the flu or something.

Darien: Are you ok?

Serena: Yeah, I'm fine. I must have the flu or something.

Darien: Well, when your done you should get back into bed.

Serena: I will.

Serena is finally feeling a bit better so she decides to get dressed and go over to Raye's.

Scene: Raye's House

Serena: Hey everybody.

All: Hi Serena!

Amy: Are you feeling all right? You look kind of pale.

Serena: I'm fine.

Lita: Yeah, if you're not feeling good you should go home, but before you do I need to talk to you.

Serena: Alright! I could have handled them you know.

Lita: I know, but I wanted to talk to you. Have you told Darien yet?

Serena: No, not yet.

Lita: Why not?

Serena: Well I don't know how he'll take it and he's been in such a good mood lately that I don't want to ruin his mood.

Lita: You'd better tell him before you blow up like a balloon.

Scene: Serena and Darien's Apartment

Serena: (thinking) I wonder if Darien suspects anything. I wish I would stop feeling sick.

Just then her communicator beeps.

Serena: Yeah.

Mina: We're going to talk about the new enemy and since you went home we thought that we would set up a link in the communicators for you to listen in and be able to be in on the conversation. Anyway, Amy how do you think we should try to find Amanda.

Amy: I think that the next time it attacks that we should use my computer to track it and then follow it to Amanda.

All: Well that sounds like a good idea to me.

Serena starts to feel sick and runs to the bathroom.

Raye: Serena, isn't that a good idea. Serena, Serena, are you there? Serena isn't answering.

Lita: (thinking) I'll bet she's got morning sickness again. She really needs to tell someone besides me. Maybe I can talk to Luna?

Serena: I'm here.

Amy: Are you okay?

Serena: Yeah, I thought I heard Darien come home, but he's still at the library working on his paper. By the way, Raye where's Rini?

Raye: She's over here. She's taking a nap she wore herself out at the park.

Serena: I hate to wake her up, but it's getting late and I'm getting lonely here alone.

Lita: I'll wake her up and walk her home.

They all switch off their communicators.

Serena: Good now I won't be all alone. (thinking) Maybe I should tell Rini or Luna. I can't keep it a secret for long. If I tell Luna she'll blab it to the girls.

Rini: I'm home. Is anyone here?

Serena: I'm in here Rini.

Rini: Are you feeling ok?

Serena: Rini, do you think that it's alright to keep a very important secret from Darien.

Rini: No I think you should tell him as soon as possible.

Serena: (thinking) Maybe I should tell him tonight in bed.

Rini: (says softly) I love you, Momma!

Serena: Come here Rini.

Rini gets closer to Serena and then Serena grabs her and hugs her and Rini gets on the bed and falls asleep while Serena is holding her.

Scene: Later

Darien: I'm home.

Serena: Shhh! Rini's sleeping in here.

Darien: Oh sorry! She looks so peaceful.

Serena: I wish she looked like that all the time.

Darien: So you feeling better?

Serena: Yeah, with help from Rini.

Darien: Huh?

Serena: Yeah, she helped me to feel a little better by calling me momma and telling me she loved me.

Darien: So she has been a virtual angel today. That's a change.

Serena: Can you help me get her to bed?

Darien: Sure.

Darien and Serena take Rini to her bed and tuck her in. Then they go to their room and they start to make out.

Luna: Ahem!

Serena: Luna!

Luna: I thought that I would have a chance to talk to you tonight, but I guess I was wrong.

Serena: No you weren't Luna. I'll talk to you right now. Darien could you go into the livingroom please.

Darien: Sure.

Darien leaves the room.

Serena: Now. What do you want to talk about Luna?

Luna: The way you've been acting lately.

Serena: I haven't been acting any differently lately.

Luna: Serena, you can't hide it from me. You haven't come to any Sailor meetings lately, you've had the others take Rini to the park which is one of your favorite things to do with her, you've been tired a whole lot more than usual, and tell me when I'm getting warm.

Serena: Alright, alright, so maybe I have been acting a little differently lately, but that's no reason to interrupt Darien and me.

Luna: If it's what I think it is I have every reason to interrupt you and Darien.

Serena: Yeah and?

Luna: Either you tell me what's going on or I won't leave and you won't have time alone with Darien.

Serena: Alright, alright, I'll tell you. (whispers) I'm pregnant and it may be Rini.

Luna: No wonder you've been acting the way you have. Have you told Darien?

Serena: Well, um.

Luna: You haven't told him yet!

Serena: No! I was waiting for the right moment.

Luna: What when you're delivering?!

Serena: No! (big sweatdrop)

Luna: Well, I suggest that you tell him tonight!

Serena: Alright, but you have to go, alright?

Luna: I'm going to sleep with Rini tonight.

Serena: Darien, you can come back in now. Bye Luna!

Darien: What was that all about?

Serena: Nothing. Just Luna being paranoid.

Darien: Oh that seems to happen a lot.

Darien feels up and down Serena's body and when he gets to her stomach the baby kicks and Darien jumps.

Serena: What's wrong?

Darien: Your stomach just jumped.

Serena: That's because I'm so excited.

Darien: Well all right, you think you're excited now you just wait.

They go to bed and like I have to tell the rest.

Scene: A battle

Moon: Come on Scouts we need to beat this monster.

Mars: Look out Sailor Moon!

The monster hits Sailor Moon right in the stomach.

Moon: Ohhhh!

Mask: Sailor Moon hold on we'll get you to a hospital.

Moon: It hurts! Darien I'm, I'm, I'm….

She passes out. The next thing she knows she's at a hospital and the doctor is telling Darien that she was pregnant.

Serena: What do you mean was pregnant?

Doctor: You lost the baby.

Serena: NNNNNNOOOOOO!
