Chapter 7…
Serena grasped the brass doorknob of her humble abode and twisted it with ease.
She slipped inside silently, but alas her mother's six-sense was alert as ever.
"Serena, you're just in time for dinner." Her mother, Irene stated cheerfully.
"Maybe later mom, I don't feel very hungry right now." Serena replied softly.
"Aw honey, what's wrong?" Irene's concern apparent.
"I think I'm just coming down with the flu...or a cold or something...don't worry mom."
Serena said while heading to her room.
Several minutes later Serena painted a Serene picture in her bathtub with mountains of white bubbles around her body.
Serena lightly touched the wounds on her neck, her eyes closed as she imagined what was to come. What would become of Sailormoon? Of her friends? Family?
When it came down to it, it didn't seem as though she had power over her own life anymore. At the same time, she wanted that. To be taken away. To be taken away by love, or was it?
After soaking for half an hour Serena climbed out of the tub and reached for her robe. A sudden dizzy spell took her by surprise and she lost her balance, but caught herself on the marble counter.
"Ok…that was weird, probably just blood rushing to my head too fast." She reassured herself while laughing nervously.
Sauntering out of the warm air of her connecting bathroom she tightened the cotton ties on her black bathrobe when she felt a cold breeze sweep up from under her and chill her to the very bone.
Her instincts took her eyes to bedroom window, which was now open. Serena rushed over, and closed the window harshly.
The blonde's breathing became rapid and her eyes widened in horror.
He really was coming for her.
As if on cue cold, but strong hands stroked the side of her neck from behind her. Serena froze, her breath caught in her throat.
"It is time my love…" He whispered tenderly in her right ear whilst sliding the collar of her cotton robe down until her shoulders were bare.
"WAIT!" Serena exclaimed. "It doesn't have to be like this Darien-"
"Then tell me how it can be." Darien demanded forcing her around slowly until they came face to face.
"I know I can't fight you, it's futile…but why do you want to hurt me?" Her eyes became clear and glassy.
Darien's eyes widened, and he realized she was right that he would cause her pain.
" It would be temporary, and to me seeing you alive and by my side is better than watching you fade away as the years pass. I couldn't continue, even in my undead state it would be too much for me to handle if I lost you…lost this chance." He explained.
"What of my family? What of my life?" She questioned, her eyes glued to the hardwood floor.
"They don't even have to know." He replied. "Or you can come with me."
Darien looked deeply into her eyes, and he bent his head down to kiss her shoulder. Her skin was hot and smooth under his cool lips. Serena closed her eyes and her head rolled back, all she could do was gasp and moan. Suddenly he stopped his lips came so close to her ear she shuddered in response.
"Tell me that you love me, that you want me Serena." He invoked.
"I…Darien….please-" Serena groaned.
Without another word he kissed her tenderly on the lips, giving her a taste of what he had to offer as a lover and as a companion for eternity.
Darien then trailed the kisses down from her lips to her chin to her neck until she stopped shuddering in his arms. He then slowly bit into her, making a fresh wound under the last one.
A few short feet away upon Serena's Vanity table her brooch began to glow and eerie color of white. Darien's instincts picked up on it rather quickly, but he continued the process none-the-less.
He kneeled with her to the ground, and she lay against him in his arms. Darien pulled away from her neck.
"There is most definitely something surreal about you Serena…my ethereal beauty.." He whispered.
With her fading energy and consciousness Serena forced out, " Dar-Darien…I'm…Sa-Sailormoon-"
"I know love, I've always known. Now drink up…" He smiled warmly.
From Serena's brooch burst a black glow that transformed the crystal within, as well as its owner.
More Later…
