Hi guys! Its me again...well duh! But any who, I don?t really have any excuses that this chapter took so long...but uh, sorry? Any way! Off of that subject and back to the story! *peace* Ashitwa my lovely fans! *************************** Chapter 11 A Lost Love By: Abbie a.k.a. Bunny Rating: PG-13 (don?t worry, no lemons!) She really does love me doesn?t she?? Gohan pondered the thought. ?Yeah, why I don?t know, but she does. What?s so special about you any way?? Mars spat out looking at Gohan in disgust. She didn?t like the fact of her Moon Princess and future Queen falling in love with any one but her Prince and protector. ?Sailor Mars! Stop that! You should respect the Princesses decision! You have to consider the fact that she doesn?t know that we can bring Darien back, she may go back to him!? Venus barked out at Mars. Goku just kind of stood there, not following any of this. ?Um guys? I think we really need to focus on saving Serena, she?s in big trouble and you people are just rambling on about who loves who and what not and for some reason I think it can wait?? Goku declared in the middle of everyone. At that everyone shut up, and nodded to each other that he was right. ?Ok Dad?what now? What exactly is this thing that we are fighting?? Gohan rationalized. ?Son, I don?t really know?I remember Serena going into the bed room, and I felt a high ki? so I went in after her, and then all the sudden everything got even darker than it had before and Serena screamed and before I could get to her, she was gone?? Goku trailed off silently cursing himself for letting all this happen in the first place. ?I don?t care what it is! It has our Princess! Lets go scouts!? Mars yelled to her comrades. ?Mars! Don?t be stupid?don?t just charge in there not knowing what your up against?come on follow me?? Gohan said stepping into the front of the small group. The small group filed into the dark cave. Gohan lead the group as they slunk around from rock to rock in case they happen to run into any one or thing? ?Shh!? Gohan spat as he stopped abruptly, holding up a hand for every one else to stop as well. They did as told. ?What is it Gohan?? Goku whispered from the back of the group. ?I don?t know?but something is close?can you feel that enormous power?? Gohan whispered back. ?What are you two taking about?? Raye butted in, she was getting impatient. ?nothing?come lets keep going,? Gohan waved everyone on again. Again, they all crept around the cave. When all the sudden they saw her. She was lying there, unconscious by the looks of it. She had a large cut on her head, but that was the only visible wound. ?Serena!? the Scouts were overjoyed to see their leader again. ?No! Wait!? Gohan warned, but was too late, for the Scouts had already run to their Princess. ?Who are you?! Leave that girl alone, she?s mine!? A dark shadowy voice came from the darkest part of the cave. ?Show yourself! Who are YOU! And she is not YOURS! She is OUR princess!? Lita bellowed back at the evil voice. ?Is that so?? The voice came closer. ?Come on you coward! Show yourself!? Raye yelled back to the voice. ?Oh?you want to see me do you? Ok?? At that, the dark ness of the cave vanished and a tall black shadow of a man stood there in front of Raye. ?Is this better?? The shadow asked with slight mockery in its voice. The Sailors gasped and didn?t know what to do?that is until Jupiter couldn?t tale it anymore. She knew they didn?t stand a chance against this?creature, and did what any other person would do. She grabbed Serena and ran for her life! Luckily the other Sailors followed suit quickly and before the shadow man could chase after them Gohan stepped out from behind the rock he had been hiding behind and stopped him. ?Ack!? the Shadow man stop dead in front of Gohan. Gohan?s eyes were filled with ate, and death?this thing wasn?t going to live after what it had done to Serena?no it would pay, DEARLY! ?What the hell do you think you are doing?! You come down here and kidnap the one woman I LOVE, hurt her, knock her out cold and hide her in a cave?now you are going to pay!? Gohan bellowed to the figure in front of him. At this point Goku was right behind him and willing to back him up in any way possible. ?Gohan?isn?t it? Your one of those ?Super Sayins? aren?t you?? the Shadow man said calmly. ?So, maybe I am, it makes no difference. I?m going to pound you either way!? Gohan retorted. ?Good, you want to fight, and I want to fight, it?s nice to know we have reached an agreement. Now how bout we take this?out side?? the Shadow man offered. ?You first.? Gohan said coldly. The Shadow man stepped pass the two men and they followed out side of the cave. The sailor scouts were on the ridge out side the cave and were in the process of waking up Serena. ?All right, Super Sayin, lets see what your REALLY made of!? the Shadow man yelled as he jumped into the air facing Gohan. ?Your on!? Gohan yelled as he powered up into SSJ and the suddenly disappeared. ?Where did he go!?? Ami asked in shock. ?He?s fighting?up there,? Goku said, never taking his eyes off of the sky. The sailors couldn?t figure out what he was looking at?they didn?t see anything? ?Oh?man, do I have a headache?? came a low grumble form the lying form on the ground. ?SERENA!? all the Scouts yelled in unison as they embraced there leader and Princess. ?GUYS! What are you doing here! How? When?? What happened?! Wait! Where?s Gohan! That THING was using me as bait!? Serena looked up at Goku with pleading eyes of hopefulness. Goku looked down at the poor girl on the ground, ?It?s too late?the battle has already begun?? Goku said as he looked back up at the sky. Serena gasped in horror as she too looked up to the sky. ?What are you people looking at!?? Mina screamed, getting very annoyed. ?They are watching the fight?? Mars said when she finally realized what was going on. ?What?! There is nothing up there but the sky!? Jupiter yelled in frustration. ?No, they are just moving to fast for your eyes to follow?? Serena said, still gazing at the sky. ?Oh?? they all breathed together. ?No! GOHAN!? Serena suddenly burst out. Then out of nowhere Gohan appeared out of no where and crashed into the side of the mountain. ?SON!? Goku and Serena both powered up and flew over to Gohan. ?Guys?since when did Serena no how to fly??? Venus asked her fellow Scouts in amazement. ?WOW! This is amazing! They are converting some of their energy to make themselves fly! What a technique! They have such great amounts of power! I can?t believe how much stronger Serena has gotten! And she?s not even transformed!? Mercury blurted out as she rapidly at her mini computer. ?These people are in a whole different fighting league than us?they are stronger than we could possibly imagine?? Mars whispered to herself. **********************************************************Well that?s it! Hope you liked it! I?m already starting the next chapter! Yay! So hopefully it will be out soon!
