By the way, Sailor Moon changes into Sailor Sun again. K? Enjoy! "You have to go, Alex, you were the one who thought of it," exclaimed Darien. "Yeah, Alex," said Andrew. "Actually the party was Greg's idea. Forget it, let him take that bimbo with the short skirts," snapped Alexis. "Who Aurora?" asked Darien. "Yeah, there is no way I want to see Travis," said Alexis. "Come on, you both are just too stubborn to see how perfect you all for each other," said Greg. Alexis let out a snort. "I take that as a no. Alright Alexis, you gave us no other choice," said Darien and lifted her over his shoulder. "Darien Chiba! You put me down this instant! NOW! Where are you taking me?" yelled Alexis as she beat on Darien's back with her fists. "Alex, shut up," commanded the other guys. Alexis closed her mouth immediately. "Alex you came," said Travis looking surprised. "Blame them," said Alexis sarcastically pointing at the grinning guys behind her. "Alex I have talk to you alone," said Travis as he pulled Alex into another room. "What do you want?" she snapped. "I want to say I am sorry," he said seriously. Alexis looked at him. He was serious. 'Why did he have to be so gorgeous?' thought Alexis. She had to admit she couldn't stay mad at him for long. They were practically best friends. "I forgive you Travis," she said quietly. "Maybe after the dinner it would be best if we didn't go on any dates," said Travis quietly. Alexis stared at him with shock. "I agree," she lied. Her heart was pounding in her chest. Why did she have to fall for him? Life was so unfair! "Surprise!" yelled the guys and Alexis as the girls walked through the door. "Oh my gosh," was all Serena could say before throwing her arms around Darien. "This is totally..." began Mina as she hugged Andrew. "Amazing," finished Lita as she held tightly on to Ken. "I can't believe you pulled this off," said Rae. "Me either," said Ami with a smile. "It was Greg's idea," spoke up Alexis. "I have to talk to Serena alone," announced Darien and pulled Serena into another room. "What?" she asked. "Did you know that Travis had a date with Alexis last night?" asked Darien seriously. "No why?" asked Serena. "Well he stood her up," replied Darien. Serena gave him a puzzled look. That didn't sound like her twin at all. "And? Why are you telling me this?" asked Serena. "Well since you are always playing match maker I was wondering what you could think of to get Alex and Travis together," he explained. She thought on this for a minute saying nothing. "They are perfect for each other," said Darien with conviction. "Where was Travis during the date?" asked Serena. "Showing the newest student of your school around, Aurora," said Darien. "Alright, I'll have the others help. Especially Mina. This is, after all her forte," said Serena. "Forte? What happened? Haruna make you learn some new vocabulary?" teased Darien. "Now don't you start with the dumb blonde jokes," demanded Serena. "Me? I can't believe you would even suspect me..." but he couldn't finish for he was laughing so hard. "Alright I...(gasp)...give..." Serena tickled him even harder. "Alright I'll see your pear and raise you 2 apples," said Alexis as she threw her lot in the middle. The group of poker players studied their cards. "Let's make this more interesting, if girls win then guys have to take them to dinner and dancing," spoke up Lita with a grin at the thought. "And if a guy wins then he gets to takes the person or persons of his choice to go sky diving," spoke up Ken with mischief. "Ha I can just see meatball head here flying through the air," said Rae with a snicker. The lot increased from fruit to fingernail polish and small amounts of change. "I'm out," announced Chad. Mina then had to throw down her cards. The lot increased to dollars. Ami and Ken had to throw down their cards in defeat. The lot increased to about 7 dollars, 9 apples, 15 pears, and 6 oranges, about 2 dollars in change, 2 small hand held mirrors and about 9 different colors of fingernail polish. There was silence for a moment. The lot raised by 6 dollars and a small crystal ring. "Ugh I am out," said Lita in disgust. "Man, so am I!" whined Serena. "Looks like we're going to be going sky diving if this keeps up," announced Travis with a laugh. The lot increased again. This time by 5 pens and a pair of hair barrettes. "You gotta stop throwing in these girlie things," commented Darien. Rae stuck out her tongue and continued playing. "I am out," said Rae. "So am I," commented Greg with a frown. Darien threw his cards down. It was a pretty good hand. "Don't think so Dar, take a look at these," said Travis as he laid down his cards. "Ha read them and weep, Look at this guys royal flush!" said Alexis with a laugh. "I can't believe she out does us in skating and in poker!" groaned Travis. "Get used to it," said Alexis with a smirk. "We win!" cheered all the girls. "Looks like you all have to take us to dinner and dancing!" laughed Lita. "Well not tomorrow, I have to go to Serena's house for dinner," said Darien as he held his girl friend tightly. "Well then the rest of us will go to dinner and dancing," said Mina. "Sounds good to me!" exclaimed Lita. The guys looked at each other and groaned a bit. (Sweatdrops) "The moon is lovely tonight," sighed Serena as she cuddled up to Darien. "Not as lovely as you," said Darien softly and held her more tightly. "You know what the best thing is about fighting is?" asked Serena. "What? That you make me totally miserable?" asked Darien with a grin. "No, when we make up," said Serena. "I do believe your right," said Darien as he kissed her gently. The beeping of Serena's communicator interrupted the kiss. "Not NOW!" moaned Serena. "I don't want hear any of that wailing of yours meatball head! You try getting rid of Chad and Ken and see how easy it is!" said Rae sarcastically. "So where is Scilite now?" asked Serena. "Cherry Tree Park," said Rae. "Ok we'll be right there," said Serena as Darien was already dragging her toward the park. Scilite looked angrily over the dusted remains of his monster. The scouts had defeated another one yet again. Sailor Sun had now put up a barrier between him and the new door. Austrailis was not going to be happy. A dark red rose had triggered a gold door with earth and roses intertwined. Scilite stared angrily after them and stepped through a portal. "FOOL, IMBECIL!" greeted him. "That one was a hard one," said Sailor Venus as she gently wrapped a burn she received on her arm. "Tell me about it! I hate those light sucking monsters," said Sailor Jupiter who had most of her light energy taken from her. She had to lean on Mars to keep from collapsing. Sailor Sun looked pretty rough too. Tuxedo Mask now had to carry her. The room they were in was now made of silver. Turquoise draperies framed the windows. Vases of red roses filled the air with their sweet perfume. "I would say this is my door," said Tuxedo Mask as he gently laid Sailor Sun on the floor. "We can't go through with this," came a female voice. Aurora and Endymion entered the room. "I know, we would make each other miserable if we tried," said Endymion. "I couldn't possibly marry you now. You are in love with her," said Aurora. Endymion looked relieved but a little confused. "How did you know I was?" he asked. "Well it was pretty obvious during the ball. You danced with her almost every dance," explained Aurora. "So you aren't angry?" asked Endymion. Aurora shook her head. "No but you are the one that has to tell your parents," said Aurora with a smile. Endymion let out a low laugh. He kissed her lightly on the forehead and handed her a red rose from one of the vases. "I think I will miss your roses the most," said Aurora as she breathed in the flower's perfume. "So what are you planning to do now?" asked Endymion. "Well my mother wants me to start ruling the Light Kingdom in her place. My coronation will be soon. I wish you the best in life and love, Endy," said Aurora as she turned to leave. Tears glistened in her eyes. "You will find love also," said Endymion as he watched her leaving. She turned and faced him. "I hope you are right," she said and left. "Now how am I going to tell my parents?" mumbled Endymion and left through another door. The silver falcon dropped a small jeweled dagger into Sailor Sol's hands. It was pure silver encrusted with emeralds, sapphires, and opals. "6th key. You know I don't think the globe is a key. I think it's just a holder for the keys," said Mercury. "I know. If it was this would be the 7th key. If we see Pluto we should ask her," said Sol. "I wonder how many doors we have to go?" asked Sailor Sun. "Well let's see. We have Serena's, Travis's, mine, Rae's, Mina's and now Darien's key. So if we count Sailor Pluto then we probably only have 2 more doors to go," said Sailor Jupiter. The others nodded in agreement and left through the door. So how do you like it?
