This part of my fic is for Psycho Star, 'cause when I read
her story "Matresses, Malls and Mayhem" I got a real good laugh. {Tembo
you can get it later! Finnish editing first.}[That was such a FUNNY
story Psycho Star!]

{Last time}
"You mean you've always saved Serena from creeps in the park or
back roads?" Darien asked.
"Creeps, bullies and monsters. Whenever I'm around." Katherine
said.
"Monsters?" he questioned.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Monsters?" he questioned.
"Yes..." Katherine said.
"When we were little," Serena told him, "I used to be afraid there
were monsters under my bed. At night it would get really bad and I'd
start to cry, and somehow Rhea always heard me. She'd come running in
from what is now Sammy's room and take a leap onto my bed and say,
"never fear my princess, I will banish these monsters." Then she would
swing her rose wand around the sides of my bed and tell me the monsters
could not get me now as long as I had my moon wand, then she'd get my
wand from on top of the toy chest and bring it to me, tuck me in and go
back to her room."
"Cute story," Darien laughed.
"True story," Katherine giggled.
They chit-chated all the way to the Tuskino's home. Where
Katherine made tea and they watched the movie *Vampire Hunter D* {also
not mine}
After the movie it was time for Darien to head home.
"I'll walk you out Darien," Katherine said quietly because Serena
had fallen asleep during the movie.
Once they were out in the yard, Darien said, "what you did back
there on the deserted street, you were really brave."
"I'll wager what you tried to do was even braver."
v
He looked her straight in the eye and told her, "you'd lose that
wager." 'If only she knew.'
"I doubt it," she said, 'I could have kicked Ariono's but, just
like before, only for real this time.'
"Hey,"
"What?" she asked surprised.
"Your eyes, when we first met weren't they blue and brown?"
"Maybe..."
"They're still blue on the inside, but the outer ring is now
green."
"Yeah...haven't you ever met someone whose eyes change colour
before?"
"Not all weird like yours."
"My mom used to say that my eye colour changed like the weather or
when I get extremly emotional."
"Cool. See ya around."
"You too!" she said as she went back to the house, making sure to
lock the gate and the door.

~*~The next day~*~
*knock knock*
Katherine thought, 'Who could it be this early in the morning?'
"Hi," Darien said.
"Mornin'," Katherine said, in her green with rosebud PJ's {PJ he
he he, uh inside joke, it has to do with the Red Planet and Tembo's
sister.}[Willis no like PJ! Willis stay Jim!]{PJ save Willis and Jim}
"I take it Serena isn't up yet."
"Nope, usually not 'till noon and with what happened yesterday..."
"Yeah that's what I wanted to talk to her about. You know make
sure she's all right with this."
'He's hiding something!' Katherine realized, but said, "Yeah, we
should probably talk about it. We probably should have called the
police. Come on in the two of us can talk in the kitchen 'till Serena
manages to pull herself out of bed."
Darien hesitated but came in, noticing that Serena was no longer
asleep on the couch.
"Did she wake up to go to bed?" he asked.
"No I just carried her," Katherine replied.
"Wow, she's pretty heavy for someone so small to carry."
{Katherine is only a few centimeters taller than Serena.}
"She's not ~that~ heavy," 'for someone with superhuman strenght.'
"Sure. If you don't mind I'd rather not call the police, I don't
think they would believe us."
"Yah, Dare, you're probably right."
*uncomfortable silence*
"So, Serena's the little sister you talk about so much, Rhea?"
"Yeah, Serena, sweet innocent Serena, they had no right to attack
her," Katherine said smacking her fist down on the table.
"Take it easy Rhea, she'll be fine, she's a tough one."
"Yeah, the sweet little princess."
"Princess???" he questiond, 'Will she tell me, if she knows
probably not.'
"Oh when she was little, we were reading my book of histories, and
she decided she wanted to be a ~Moon Princess~ when she grew up and
decided to start training then. Her mother and I made her the white
gown and I did her hair... ~meatballs~. I've called her ~Princess~ ever
since. I never dreamed she'd acctually have the hairstyle after all
this time."
"I'd like to have a look at that book someday."
"How 'bout today?" she challenged, grabbing her backpack from
under the table.
"Anytime," he said, blue eyes sparkling.
"Kay, look away *she handed him the book*, I'm gonna go feed
'Clipse and Luna." She said handing him the old looking book and leaving
the room.
Darien liiked at the book, 'I've seen this book before, not
exactly like this... but where?'
~*~flashback~*~
"And to the crown child of Earth, Princess Katherine Gaia Rhea,
bearer of the pink rose, I give the book of histories guard it well, it
holds the key to time."
~*~end of flashback~*~
'Wow, all that from looking at the cover of a book! And still no
sense between the times what-so-ever.' Darien thought as he opened the
book, not noticing the small pocket in the binding. If he had it would
have opened upon his command, as it would for all the Earth's children.
So he never got to see the small golden key or the even smaller silver
rose pin. There was, however, something odder he found out about the
book, writing and pictures appeared on the pages as he touched them,
revealing to his inexperienced mind parts of the Silver Millenium most
bold in his subconsious mind...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"And what did you do that for, Young Lady?"
"I was wondering..."
"Well..."
"Okay, 'Clipse, Darien and Serena seemed so much in love, and he
took Ariono's hit quite well, his hair eyes and even his manner seem
right... I thought he might be Endymion..." Katherine said, expecting a
scolding.
"Oh, Katherine you never give up. Well it's worth a try, but what
will you tell him if he can't see the words on the page?"
"I'm more worried about what I'll say if he can.... or if he finds
the key and the pin."
"Katherine, I know how much you HATE fighting the Dark Earth
Family, but you must start wearing your transformation pin and the key.
AND you acctually don't know what you're going to say to him whether or
not he can read the book."
"You've known me since forever and don't know I never think that
far ahead!"
"Katherine, I thought being around the generals would have taught
you something!" Eclipse said with a sigh.
"Swearing, fighting and magic."
"Well at least two of those are useful. That Zoicite should have
controlled his tounge while in the preasence of a lady, useless habit."
"I don't know Mars always made full use of her vocabulary and it
got her places."[He he he! Dirty mouthed like me!]{I wonder who is
worse?}
"You, Katherine, are older and suposedly more mature than the
inner scouts."
"Blame me, just because I was born too late to be an outer scout
and too soon to be and inner!"
"Now you've gone and gotten me off topic."
"Look 'Clipse if he's Endymion or anyone from the Silver
Millenium, he'll be able to read the book. If he's not we'll just have
to keep looking. For all we know he could be Logan." At this comment
she made a face.
"You make it sound so simple," Eclipse told her.
"To me it is, besides I acctually like this one. He's a prize
compared to what you've dreged up." With that she finnished feeding the
~animals~ and returned to the kitchen."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"This is very interesting," Darien told Katherine when she walked
into the kitchen. Eclipse had followed her to the door. "It's
unfortunate it skips around so often."
"That's not really the book's fault."
"I guess not, but where did you get it?" he asked.
"Family heirloom. The legend is that it has been passed down
since before a mythical time called the Silver Millenium. It supposedly
tells of the Earth's royal family and other related subjects. In many
times it is said to be true history, in others, it's only legend, fairy
tales for children."
'If only she knew how true it was.'
Now Katherine and Darien might have had a long talk about the book
an it's origins, they might have delved deep into their pasts, hell, one
of them might even have let slip something about his or her secret
identity, but it was not to be. They were intterupted.
"Katherine what's going on? I heard voices." Serena said as she
walked down the stairs in shorts and a tank top.
"Mornin' Princess." Katherine said, glad to be off the hook.
"Good morning, Meatballhead," Darien said cheerfully, probly even
more glad to be off the hook.
"Darien?" Serena exclaimed rushing over to hug him.
"Well I'll see the two of you later then," Katherine said going
upstairs to get dressed.

Family is up to. Also any information about the Outer scouts would be
greatly appreciated as well as flames, comments, questions, requests
and anything else you might want to send. If you're an author in need
