The Other Side of Serena
Chapter 1: Unraveling the Mystery
(Or: Has Serena gone off the deep end?)
Darien knew exactly where the leftovers of that cake (or at least, what was left over after Serena was through with it) were. He opened the refrigerator to find that the little lightbulb had been removed. The rest of the kitchen was pitch black. Darien rolled his eyes and pushed a container out of the way. After fishing around for a while, his hand hit something paper. He felt the cake box and jerked the index card off it. This one had a silver star on it and was all in Serena's handwriting, though neater than usual. This one was a limerick.
"I'm sitting alone in our room
Wishing that you were here with me too
But you're stuck out there
And it's just so unfair
Cos I really need something from you"
Your next card is taped to the flashlight. Don't ask me where it is, though...
~~~{@ Love ya! @}~~~
Darien almost dropped the card. Since when was Serena such a good writer? And where the hell was the flashlight? She probably hid it someplace really obvious...
< She hid a new underwear set under the couch cushion once, hoping I would find it... >
He made straight for the living room and checked under every couch cushion. There was a flashlight under there, but it wasn't one he expected... It was shaped like Hello Kitty wearing a kimono. And it had no batteries. Typical. There was a piece of paper taped to it, but it said "Hahaha! You remembered the underwear set! I knew it!"
Darien rolled his eyes and tried to think of another place where she could have put the flashlight. Knowing her, she probably just stuck it anywhere besides under the couch cushions. He started out for the bathroom. She might have slid it in between the shower curtain and the curtain liner. Nope. All he found there was a bottle of ketchup. He yanked the curtain closed and tried not to think about what Serena might be doing with ketchup in the shower.
Storming out of the bathroom like a bat out of hell, he headed for another likely place: behind the flat-screen computer monitor. She once put a ceramic owl back there for no reason at all, then totally forgot about it. He reached back there and came out with... a rubber rat that had seen better days.
< Where the hell did she get that thing? >
At least it wasn't half as disturbing as the ketchup in the bathroom...
After several more dead ends, including a (broken) telephone reciever in the silverware drawer, a little beanbag chicken under a little cabin made entirely of pencils, and (probably weirdest of all) a Barrel of Monkeys game that was inside a Sailor V-print sock in an unplugged and probably broken microwave in the hall closet, Darien was getting VERY frustrated. He didn't even WANT to know where she got the microwave. If she was hiding things in electrical appliances, this could be dangerous...
Squaring his shoulders resolutely, Darien marched into the kitchen and opened the last place he would normally (Normal? With Serena?) expect to find a flashlight: the oven.
Sure enough, there was the big metal flashlight that he got when Serena swore there were rats in the apartment. He had sat up for two nights straight and found no rats. But he did it for her.
He pulled off the index card wrapped around the flashlight and tied with a pink ribbon. This one had a little pink heart on it and was written mostly in Serena's handwriting.
"Congratulations! You found the One Thing to Hunt Things Out!"
Now, you need One Thing to Find Me!
Where is a place
You will always find me
When I want to leave
My sorrows behind me?
(Hint: It's not the kitchen.)
~~~{@ Kisses! @}~~~
He thought... She usually would go and sit on his couch until she calmed down. So back to the couch it was. Fishing through the cushions on the upright part of the couch came up with the other Sailor V-print sock, a manga she thought she had lost three months ago, and his journal (duct-taped shut). No clue.
< Where else does Serena go when she's upset? >
Easy! His bedroom... But it was locked, wasn't it? Darien shrugged and approached the bedroom door. He rattled the knob and found a folded-up index card taped to it. The other side of the door was silent.
< She's up to something... >
The card said:
"Haha! I knew you would think of that!"
A sweatdrop appeared on Darien's forehead and he walked back down the hall. The only other place it could be was in the kitchen...
< Of COURSE! She said it wasn't just to try and confuse me! >
So it was back to the kitchen. He searched the whole room, opening every cabinet and drawer. Even checked the blender. Finally, he just barely noticed a little white thing sticking out of the faucet. How she got it up there, no one could say. Darien almost hesitantly unrolled the slightly soggy index card. To his surprise, the words were in ink and in perfect condition.
It said:
I've switched the order a little...
Check behind the vaccuum cleaner in the hall closet.
It's either in a cardboard box or an old laundry bag... I forget.
Then check the door.
Just hold on a little longer!
~~~{@ Kisses (and more!) @}~~~
What the "it" she was talking about was, he had no clue, but Darien headed for the hall closet again. Shoving their monstrosity of a vaccum cleaner aside, he found (What else?) a bunny-print laundry bag with a lot of odd lumps in it. He picked up the bag and headed for the bedroom door. There, tied in a pretty red ribbon and taped to the door, was the key that fit the bedroom door.
With a shaking hand, Darien stuck the key in the lock after missing several times. Trying to ignore the bunnies, he hid the bag behind his back. Slowly, he opened the door and stepped into a very dark bedroom. He couldn't see anything, so he flipped the switch that would turn the lamp on. The lamp did nothing, but a few candles lit up.
He dropped the bag with a CLUNK, his jaw dropping again...
