A Game?

Sammy blinked at the girls. 

"It all makes since now." He muttered out loud, nodding his head. "Everytime a new Scout appears Serena makes a new friend. Why didn't we see it before? and the hair styles are a dead give away." 

"You'd think so." Hotaru laughed.  "and yet they never figure us out." 

"Then they're stupid." Sammy said, shaking his head. "So when you said training you meant Scout training?" 

"Yeah." Serena nodded, "Listen, Sammy you can't tell anyone. This is dangerous information." 

"Yeah, I got that." Sammy nodded, frowning. "I wont tell. I swear, Serena." he glared at Darien and kicked him hard. Amara saw why and pulled Serena to her side. "Stay away from my sister, pervert!"

"Watch it, kid." Darien growled. 

"You watch it!" Sammy growled back. "I know what you did to my sister or at least a little bit of it. You're lucky I'm not going to the cops! You're 17 and she's 14 that's illegal! If I were to tell well I hear that child molesters don't last long in prison." 

"Sammy, stop it." Serena scolded but leaned into Amara. 

The other girls were staying silent in all this. 

Sammy glared at Darien as they reached the street but stayed quiet. Darien got in his car and left. 

"So you have a whole week to study for that math test." Ami finally said. "We should......" 

"I've got Serena covered." Trista stated. "I'm taking over her tutoring." 

Sammy sensed trouble. 

"So that fight was it?" he asked, "I mean no training?" 

"We have to recharge." Serena informed. "It's like a video game, Sammy. When our MP reaches 0 it needs to recharge and our WIS does what?" 

"WIS stands for Wisdom and it effects MP recovery ." Sammy qouted. 

"That's right." Serena said. "My WIS is sitting at 12 right now so recovery isn't that good." 

"What's your INT?" Sammy wondered. 

Serena blushed. 

"10."  she said. 

Ami shook her head. Rei snorted. 

"It's gone up because of all the studying I've been doing." Serena defended herself. 

"It's okay, Serena, you've been doing really well leading the team." Amara said. 

"What do we do with this?" Lita finally asked, jerking her head to the girl on her back. "She can't be one of us can she?" 

"I doubt it." Serena said, bringing up the team list. "There is no Sailor Earth on this list. If there was one she would be on here. " 

"So she has to be a minion of Negaverse." Mina said. 

"She said she was." Michelle pointed out. "But how did she appear as a Scout and how can we heal her without Sailor Moon's full powers?" 

"You're really making me feel bad for choosing this training option." Serena sighed, leaning into Amara. 

"Don't feel bad." Hotaru stated. "We'll think of something." 

Luna and Artemis were talking quietly to each other. 

Ikuko and Kenji wondered how this had happened. All of Serena's friends were over and were apparently having a pizza party in her room minus Rei. 

"Honey, where is Rei?" Ikuko wondered, from the door. "Will she becoming later?" 

"She got grounded for refusing to go to one of her father's parties." Ami informed. 

"I see well lights out eleven girls and Tenou-san must leave at ten." 

With that she left. 

Serena held her hand up before anyone could talk sure enough Sammy came bursting into the room a second later he was flying out with Serena's foot having kicked him. She slammed the door. 

"He's finally remmebered who you are." Serena told Amara. "He's like your biggest fan. He's been talking about a race in two weeks nonstop." 

Amara laughed and wrapped her arm around Serena as they sat on her bed and talked and ate with the other girls. Trista, Michelle and Hotaru were on the bed as well. Ami, Lita and Mina were on the floor. 

Serena swallowed her pulse as she leaned into Amara. Maybe she was falling for Amara? She'd always had strong feelings for Amara. Maybe she should let herself fall for Amara. Amara was always encouraging her so she was sure it was okay. Now how to bring it up?

Serena fell asleep long before ten leaning on Amara who was of course in boy form. 

"Hotaru, switch me places, it's almost ten." Amara finally, said, "You can spend the night." 

Hotaru quickly did and Amara was saying goodbye to everyone. It turned out that Hotaru was the only one to stay the night.
