Hope You Enjoy! ************************************************************ Jarelle and Prince Darien's swords clashed. Both determined to have Serena. Though Darien wanted to have Serena because he loved her more than anything else in the world, while Jarelle wanted her for lust. Darien still could not believe that Jarelle was ruthless enough to kill his own sister to keep Serena. Mean while Serena had began to regain consciences and the scouts had gone over to help her. "Scouts get Serena out of here... NOW!" yelled Darien, still fighting Jarelle. "No!" screamed Jarelle and ran after the Scouts and a weary Serena. The Scouts had not gotten through the door when Jarelle blasted them Sailor Mercury and Mars fell to the ground and Jarelle grabbed Serena who gave a cry of fear and called out to Darien. "No!" yelled Darien and charged towards Jarelle who flung Serena in front of him and put his sword against her throat. Serena whimpered in pain as Jarelle's hold grew very tight around her waist and Darien stopped in his tracks. "Let her go," Darien pleaded. "Never ... either she will be mine or no bodies!" Jarelle proclaimed. Darien looked into Serena's crying eyes and his heart was pierced by thoughts of love and fear. "Dead Scream!" cried a voice "World Shaking!" cried another "Deep Submerge!" another yelled The Scouts, Darien, and Jarelle turned to seen the four Outer Scouts standing there looking very made. "I'll kill you all!' Jarelle screamed and threw a blast at all the scouts and let go of Serena who tried to scramble to Darien but Jarelle grabbed her wrist and flung her back and held her very tightly against him. "Silence Wall!" Sailor Saturn cried as she blocked Jarelle's blast. Jarelle whispered into Serena's ear, "Now my darling let's see what your friends can do now?" The nine scouts came up behind Darien they all looked at Jarelle fearfully. "Let her go ... please!" said a brokenhearted and scared Darien. "I told you I will never!" Jarelle yelled back and tighten his grip around Serena who had begun to cry in fear and pain. "Let her go Jarelle!" Sailor Pluto ordered and Jarelle blasted her and the other Outer Scouts. At that moment Serena gad managed to wiggle away from Jarelle and into Darien's protective arms. Jarelle moved towards them but the Sailor Scouts stood in front of him and began to battle with him. Darien gentle held Serena who cried and told him how much she loved him and how scared she was about never seeing him again. Darien lifted her chin and gently told her "I love you Serena... I've always have and I'll always will..." and kissed her gently. Serena's eyes opened to see Jarelle had created a huge blast and was heading at them. "Darien watch out she screamed and threw Darien to the ground. Darien hit the ground hard and looked up to see Serena being hit by the powerful blast. ************************************************************ Oh no! What's going to happen? ~Aleria
