*Anyone not know the drill yet?  Sailor Moon...don't own it.*
  
 Serena's eyes flew open as she sputtered, "What?...How?...I thought I was hit on the head not you."  

Darien was still shaking his head, "I should have guessed a long time ago, I mean, every time Sailor Moon 

klutzes out she reminded me of you.  Who would have guessed your Sail..." a small hand clamping over his 

mouth hushed Darien.  "Shut up." Serena hissed.  Darien looked at her. "mmat" Serena continued, "Yes.  

You're right.  But I would prefer it if the bad guys didn't know.  So mind your business, and don't tell the 

others, OK?"  Darien nodded and she released his mouth.  Darien smiled at her.  "What?" she whined.  

"Serena, don't you get it?  (At her confused expression, he continued) Who else is missing from the 

group?"  Serena looked around, "No one, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Mars...That's it except...Tuxedo mask."  

Darien nodded and opened his coat to reveal a single red rose.  Serena nearly dropped Mars' head as she 

met his eyes, "You?"  Darien smiled, "Yup!" Serena threw her arms around Darien nearly knocking him 

over, "That's great."  This was not the reaction he was expecting, "Huh?"  Serena rolled her eyes, "Don't 

you see, the Negaverse doesn't know or they wouldn't have locked us in the same room.  That gives us the 

advantage." She smiled at him.  Darien grinned back at her, "You think more than you let on don't you?"  

Serena wrinkled her nose, "Of course I think.  I just don't do it all the time.  Look at Mercury, we always ask 

her 'what now' or 'think of a plan' or 'do my algebra' I have enough responsibility without all that."  Darien 

laughed.  This brought a look from the others.  Andrew frowned, "I don't see what's funny about this 

situation?"  Darien exchanged a look with Serena then said, "Sorry, Serena did that thing with her nose."  

Andrew rolled his eyes and turned his attention back to the girl in his lap.  Serena poked Darien, "What 

thing with my nose?" Darien kissed the tip of it, "I shall not reveal all my secrets."  Serena looked back at 

Andrew and giggled.  "What?" Darien asked.  She whispered in his ear, "Venus is going to be so mad when 

she finds out whose lap she's been in when she was too zonked to remember."  "Let me guess, Mina? 

(Serena nodded.)  That would make them, Amy, Lita, and Raye!"  Darien guessed.  Serena giggled again.  

Melvin and Molly were tending to Mercury and Jupiter and staring at the couple on the other side of the 

room.  "Do you think there hysterical?" Melvin asked.  "I don't know.  Maybe." Molly answered.  Sammy 

sighed, "My sister the airhead."  Andrew smiled, "I know what's going on." (In the sense he knew nothing 

at all, but like most men, thought he did.)  Andrew told the group about how they were at the arcade, and 

how they were gone on each other.



   Serena grew serious.  "Darien, if they don't wake up soon their transformations will revert, and then 

everyone will know who they are.  For them, (pointing to the group) it may not matter, but if Zoicite comes 

back and finds four girls where Senshi should be..." her voice trailed off.  "I see your point, but what can 

we do about it?"  Serena grumbled, "Only one thing I know about...but I know I'm going to hear about it 

later."  She put one hand over Mars' mouth and plugged her nose with the other.  (AN: Ever wonder where 

Chibi Usa gets it from in the R movie :>)  Before long Mars jumped to her feet and yelled at Serena, "What 

are you trying to do, kill me?"  The others turned to see Mars glaring at Serena.  "Calm down, Pyro.  I was 

trying to wake you up."  Serena pleaded with her to understand Mars looked down and mumbled, 

"Thanks."  Darien smiled, "I'm going to help wake the others." When he got up he gave Serena a quick 

kiss.  Serena blushed.  Mars' mouth dropped open and she stared at Serena, "Wow!  How long have I been 

out?" Serena smiled, "Long enough.  When Mercury wakes, find out how to get out of here.  Since they're 

after me, I don't want to blow my cover just yet."  Mars nodded and went to help the Senshi.  Sammy 

whined from the corner, "No fair, everyone's here but Sailor Moon...My life sucks!"  







   The Senshi were discussing what to do.  Serena and Darien sat with Molly, Melvin, Andrew, and Sammy 

on the other side of the room.  Serena started it get nervous when Jupiter's head shot up from the others 

and looked at her and Darien.  Venus shouted, "What, no way.  You go girl."  Serena turned bright red, she 

knew they were talking about the kiss.  "You are talking about finding a way out of here, right?" She 

hollered.  Venus started to blush, "Oh yeah...a way out...sure.  Do not worry citizens, we will set you free."  

Serena rolled her eyes and whispered, "please tell me I don't sound like that?"  Darien started to whistle a 

tune and Serena punched him in the arm.  "Traitor" Darien wrapped an arm around her shoulder.  "I always 

thought it sounded cute when you said it."  Four giggles could be heard on the other side of the room.  

Andrew swatted Darien's arm off Serena's shoulder, "If you two don't stop, they'll never stop giggling long 

enough to get us out of here."  Serena and Darien blushed.  "Sorry."



   Darien squeezed her hand and walked over to the Senshi.  "Any idea how we're getting out of here?"  

Jupiter tried to glare at him but the smile wouldn't leave her lips.  Darien rolled his eyes, "Guys come on, 

grow up.  Before we're all found out."  Serena grabbed his hand and tried to pull him back, "Darien let the 

Senshi think of a plan.  (Quietly) I mean its not like Tux could pick the cell door with a rose stem...(She 

gasped) could you?"  Venus asked, "Could he what?"  Darien started to think, "I don't know, I've never 

tried it before."  Mercury looked at the two of them and gasped, "You're...(Turning to the others) He's..." 

She was at a complete loss for words.  The Senshi looked at her with confusion.  Mercury started waving 

her arms in a rose throwing motion.



  **The other side of the room,**



   "I thought she was the smart one?" Molly wondered.  Melvin shrugged, "Guess they're all as flaky as 

Sailor Moon."  Sammy shook his head, "Sailor Moon is cool, Them..." his voice trailed off.  Andrew 

watched the scene with interest.  "They almost sound like..." Molly looked at him, "Like who?"  Andrew 

shook his head, "Nothing."  But his mind finished the thought, Serena's friends.  But if they were, that 

would make Serena... Andrew shook his head, Nah!



   **Back at the charades**



   "Sounds like Pansy?" Jupiter tried.  Mercury shook her head.  Venus pondered, "Daffodil?"  Mars added, 

"Dandelion?" Mercury shakes her head and points to her nose.  Jupiter smiles, "Roses."  Mercury points 

excitedly, as Serena falls against Darien laughing.  Darien grumbles, "This is kind of insulting."  Serena 

laughed harder, "This is the first time I know something they don't.  Just try the rose, Ok?"  Darien walks to 

the lock and tries to pick it.  "No use it's too thick."  "Darien smells like roses." Mars sputtered.  Mercury 

falls to the floor crying.  Darien walks to the bunch, a little angry, "For the love of Pete."  Serena whispered 

in his ear, "You'll regret that."  Darien continues, "I'm Tuxedo Mask."  Mercury points to Darien and claps.  

Venus still puzzled, "No that's not it, I think she's trying to say 'seal'."  Darien growls, "Trust me."  Jupiter 

and Mars stare him up and down.  "No way!"  Venus looks at him.  "That explains a lot...except, Who loves 

Pete?"  Serena smiled, "Told you."  Mars looked at her, "You knew?  When?"  Serena leaned against 

Darien, "While you were sleeping?"  Venus looks dreamily, "I love that movie."  Mercury, finding her 

voice, said, "Focus please.  We need to get out of here.  (Calling the others over) Everyone stand over 

there."  When they were all out of the way, she crosses her arms.  "SHABON FREEZING.  It didn't work."  

Mars prepared her attack, "BURNING MANDULA."  Same result.  "SUPREME THUNDER.  Damn." Jupiter 

balled her fists.  "CRESENT BEAM.  Nothing is working." Venus stated.  Serena looked at Darien, "Can 

your...?"  Darien looked at her, "No good."



   Zoicite appeared in front of the door.  "Nice try Sailor Senshi, but only Sailor Moon can open that door.  

(Absently) I thought she would have been here by now?"  Venus laughed, "You know her, late for 

everything...OW!" Venus spun around to see who kicked her.  Serena whistled.  Suddenly Serena caught 

what Zoicite had said, Me?  How can I open the door?  My tiara won't work.  I know the Moon wand can't 

be used as a crow bar.  What else do I have?  Serena scratched her head and scraped her hand on 

something...a bobbie pin?  "Of course!"  Darien looked at her, "You got a plan?"  Serena smiled and undid 

her "Meatballs".  "You bet I do?"  She held up a bobbie pin.
