Hotmail wigged out for over a week on me and I decided not to wait for them to solve their problem. You do get what you pay for! Part 5 With the dye removed, Rini had quickly showered and washed her hip length pink hair. Luckily the dye wasn't a permanent type. She had, at first, been furious with Serena. However, as the soothing waters of the shower massaged her, she relaxed. As Rini calmed, she started thinking and the only conclusion she could draw was that Serena was still very upset about being slapped. What would Serena do if the situation were reversed? She finished her shower and quickly dressed. She then walked down to Serena's room and gently tapped on the door. "GO AWAY!!!!" came the croaky yell from the little girl. Rini winced and slowly opened the door. "Serena?" "Go away!" Serena yelled again, her voice muffled by the pillow. Rini walked across the room and sat down on the bed. "Serena, I... I want to talk to you." Serena hopped up to her knees and looked at Rini angrily. "You're gonna take Luna Ball, aren't you?!" Her face was a mask of sorrow. "No," Rini said in surprise, "Serena... I'm sorry for slapping you." Reaching out, she scooped Serena into a hug and held her close. "Don't be mad at me, Serena. We're friends." Despite her anger at her cousin, Serena found herself snuggling closer. "I don't wanna be little." "I know, Serena," Rini said softly while continuing to hug her cousin. The next day was once again bright and sunny. After having breakfast, Rini asked Serena to contact the other Sailor Scouts so that they could meet at Raye's temple. Serena was reluctant to go and was being uncooperative. "Come on, Serena, put your shoes on," Rini stated again. "What part of NO don't you understand, Spore?!?" Rini could feel somebody watching her. Glancing around, she saw that it was her mother. "Okay," Rini agreed; she didn't want to fight with Serena. Tying Serena's shoelaces together, Rini hung them over on shoulder before bending down and lifting Serena up. "Hey!" Serena squawked. Rini ignored her. She waved good-bye to her mother, opened the door, and headed for the Scout meeting. "You can let me down. I'll put on my shoes." "Just relax, Serena," Rini said as she continued down the street. "It's too nice a day to fight." She smiled as Serena grumbled a little before settling down. "Are you worried about Raye?" "Maybe a little," Serena admitted, "If she finds out about me getting punished, I'll never hear the end of it." "Does she usually find out 'bout you getting punished?" "Uh, yeah." Serena laughed a little nervously. "I mean Luna always blabs to her why I can't come to the Scout meetings." Serena sighed a little and added, "I guess I've been pretty unfair to Luna. It isn't her fault that I'm small." A short while later, Serena and Rini reached the Cherry Hill Temple and climbed the steps. Serena had enjoyed being carried. It was like being pampered in a way and from her house to the temple was such a long way for her little legs. When they came up the last few steps, they saw the other four Sailor Scouts and the two Lunar Cats waiting for them. "Jeez, you're really getting lazy, Meatball Head!" Raye said by way of a greeting. "Flamebreath!" Serena stuck her tongue out at Raye. Raye responded by turning her back and huffing, "At least she's on time for once!" "Please don't fight. We haven't even started the Scout meeting yet," Amy pleaded. Serena apologized. "Rini, come sit down. I want to perform another scan of you and Serena." Rini obliged and sitting on the deck, she held Serena on her lap. Serena didn't seem to mind and leaned against her cousin contentedly. "Any changes, Ames?" Serena asked after the scan was complete. "I'm afraid not." "Rini, where are my shoes?" When Rini handed her the shoes, Serena put them on, slid from Rini's lap, and started pacing back and forth. "Amy, have you thought of anything?" "Yes," Amy said, "We need to get that black crystal Rubeus zapped you with." "Oh man!" Lita complained, "Like how are we ever going do that?" "Isn't there any other way?" Mina asked. Amy shook her head. "That's a tall order, Amy, even for the Sailor Scouts. We don't know where Rubeus is and we really don't even know if he'll have that crystal on him the next time we see him." "I don't have sufficient data," Amy admitted, "I'm missing a big piece of the puzzle and without it, I won't be able to do any more." "You mean I could be stuck like this?!?" Serena cried out. "I'm afraid so," Amy responded softly. "Look at it this way, Meatball Head," Raye jumped in, "At least you'll be your proper age." Serena balled up her fists and yelled, "BUTTHEAD!" Turning, she stomped off. "I always knew she was a little kid." "Raye," Rini said, "Leave Serena alone. She's had an awful time adjusting." Lita looked worriedly towards Serena and asked, "She's been taking it pretty hard, huh kiddo?" "Yeah," Rini admitted, "'Specially with Darien pushing her away... I haven't told her but he doesn't even get that happy look on his face when he talks about her." "Poor kid." "Mina..." Artemis sighed, "I don't think that was the best choice of words." "So we have to get the crystal?" Rini asked Amy who nodded, "I'll tell Darien then. We might need his help." Glancing over at Serena, she added, "Somebody want to help me cheer her up? I've been trying but she just pouts or whines." "That's so typical," Raye observed. "Aren't you her friend?" Rini asked. Raye took a deep breath and let it out again. "I'm sorry... I'm worried. I mean, can Serena still transform?" "Hey yeah, maybe Rubble-head did this so that Serena couldn't transform," Lita said. "There's only one way to find out," Luna said, "Let's have a practice." As expected, there was a chorus of protests, it was too nice a day. "OUCH!!!!" Serena yelled. She and the other Sailor Scouts along with Luna and Artemis were sitting on the steps of the temple. All except for Lita who was in the kitchen making lunch. "I'm sorry," Rini said as she dabbed at Serena's scrape with the iodine, "You don't want it to get infected, do you?" "It's okay, Rini, really," Serena whined as she pulled her arm protectively towards her. "Serena, let me finish then we can have some lunch. You wouldn't want Lita's food to go to waste." "It wouldn't go to waste; Mina would eat it," Artemis remarked. "Hey!" Mina complained before whapping Artemis on the head. "I'm not that much of a pig." Luna decided to stop the argument from going any further by clearing her throat. "Now Serena, let Rini finish patching you up. You drew some blood when you scraped that arm and we don't want an infection." Reluctantly Serena allowed Rini to continue her work. "Fortunately we still have Sailor Moon to call upon. However, I think it would be advisable to let the other Scouts lead the charges until Serena returns to normal." "No way!" Serena countered, "I'm still leader. I got all my powers still so I'm not going to sit back and watch." "Your IQ must be the same as your shoe size!" Raye retorted, "Who knows what Rubeus has planned. So you didn't lose your powers but he went to a lot of trouble to attack you two with that crystal." "I'm leader!" "Maybe there should be a change." "I am STILL Sailor Moon!" Serena said stubbornly. "True," Raye admitted, "But does anybody really want to follow a little kid around?" "Raye," Rini said before any of the others could protest, "Leave Serena alone. I say she's the Leader. She's Sailor Moon and she's got the Imperium Silver Crystal. She might not be big but Tuxedo Mask is and he would still want Sailor Moon to be the leader." Serena seemed surprised that Rini would say this. There was a tense silence for a moment before Lita's voice called out, "Come and get it!" "Food!" Serena cheered. Jumping up, she ran up the stairs and into the room where Lita was setting out the dishes. Rini quickly followed with Mina, Raye, and Amy taking up the rear. It was about mid-afternoon when Serena and Rini came home. Irene, who had been in the living room, heard them enter the house. "Hello girls, how... goodness!" she exclaimed at the sight of a large bump on Serena's forehead, "What happened?" "Nothin' Auntie," Serena said. Plopping down on the floor, she started removing her shoes. "She was skipping along and..." Rini gestured helplessly, "I think today's her day for accidents." When Irene looked questioning at her, Rini pointed out the scrape on her arm. "Oh Serena," her aunt said. Hugging the little girl, she asked, "But besides that you had a good time?" "No." "Why not?" "Just didn't," Serena said with a shrug, "Can I go play, Auntie?" "Sure, Sweetheart, just try be more careful." Serena grunted, set her shoes aside, and ran up the stairs to her room. Standing up, Irene turned to look at her daughter. "So Rini, did anything happen?" Rini shrugged helplessly. She was as puzzled as Irene was. Serena had appeared fairly happy during lunch; even getting conked on the head hadn't seemed to spoil her good mood. After putting her own shoes away, Rini made her way up the stairs and along the hallway to Serena's bedroom. Pausing at the open door, she saw Serena laying on her back on the bed. Giving a gentle tap, she asked, "Can I come in, Serena?" "Guess so." Rini entered and walked across to sit on the bed. Turning so she could sit cross-legged, she reached out and shook one of Serena's feet. "You feel okay, Serena?" Serena sat up and said as firmly as she could, "Yeah, I'm fine. Jeez, quit worrying about me!" "But Serena, you seemed really happy today. I know you got hurt but you said it was okay." Rini looked worriedly at her cousin. "Is it that Raye was talking 'bout gettin' rid of you?" "Don't worry about Raye," Serena said with a dismissive wave of her hand. "I've been handling her long before you got here. I certainly don't need your help in that department." "But Serena..." "Look," Serena interrupted Rini with a snap, "I don't need your help. I can look after myself. I'm really fourteen, you know. My life was just fine until you came along." Flopping back onto the bed, she pulled the pillow over her face and let out a deep sigh. Stung by Serena's words, Rini slowly got up and left the room. Walking down the hallway, she could feel tears welling up. She went into her own room, laid down, and stared up at the ceiling. Rini tried not to cry but she still felt the trickle of tears. She was so lost in thought that she didn't even notice the nervous knock at the door. Her mind was trying to sort out all the different feelings she was having and getting nowhere. "Rini?" The voice was soft and quiet. Rini gave a small start and looked around. She saw that Serena was standing a short distance away. "Are you crying?" "No," Rini answered while rolling away from Serena. She still had her pride and it wouldn't let Serena see her cry. She felt the bed shift as the little girl crawled onto it. "Rini, I'm sorry. I shouldn't blame you for this; I listened to Raye though and I got scared that she might be right." Rini rolled over and looked at Serena who was looking down at the bed. "Raye's my friend, and so are you and if I can still fight, I'm going to. I won't let Rubeus get you or the Silver Crystal." Rini pushed herself up to a sitting position and asked, "So you aren't really mad that I spanked you?" Serena seemed surprised by the question. "I thought you were just mad at me for the slap... I thought that's why you put that dye in the shower. But then, you were still actin' mad at me. If you're still mad, then I'm sorry... I was just doing what I thought you would do." Serena sighed, "I know, Rini." Shaking her head, she added, "It took me a little while to see that. You did too good a job acting." "So did you," Rini pointed out. "No, that's what scares me the most. Rini, these past couple of days, I haven't been acting. Not like before." "I don't get it." "Neither do I but if I don't change back soon, it could get worse." Leaning forward, she hugged Rini, "I'm sorry. I'll try not to take everything out on you." She smiled as Rini gathered her into a big hug. She promised herself to be much more understanding of Rini when they returned to normal. "I think we'd better tell Amy about this." "Not the others though, at least not yet." "Okay," Rini agreed. Serena gave her another quick hug before reaching for her communicator. "Serena?" Serena's hand paused over the communicator, "Yeah?" "Show me how to shave first... please? Mom mentioned that I could use one." Serena smiled. She'd do just about anything to avoid telling the others about her emotional state. "You got it, kiddo!" Rini cuddled close to Darien and sighed contentedly. She had come over to his apartment after dinner. When asked where Serena was, she told him that Ken had picked up a couple of children's movies for Serena to watch. Rini tried to get Serena out of it by inviting her to come along but oddly, Serena had said she really wanted to see them. She smiled slightly as Darien hugged her. "Rini, would you like to try something new?" Rini looked up at him and asked, "Does Serena do it?" Smiling sweetly, he nodded, "Yes, she does, but not often." Rini perked up. Never is not often he thought but first things first. "Okay, what do we do?" "Let's go into the bedroom." Getting up, they both went into the bedroom. Rini started to undress herself but Darien stopped her. "Let me do it." Rini felt a small thrill run through her. Letting her arms drop, she waited. First, Darien unbuttoned her blouse. Pulling it free from her skirt. Carefully he slid her arms from the sleeves before tossing the blouse to the side. Leaning forward, Darien expertly unclasped her bra and let it also drop. Lowering his head, he kissed each of her firm breasts. Rini flushed a little as he squatted down, reached behind her, and undid her skirt. Slowly he slipped it over her curving hips until only her pink panties and socks were left. Gently he pushed her backward onto the bed and then taking one foot, peeled off her sock. Then he did the same to the other one. She could feel her nipples growing erect and her womanhood becoming wet as anticipation and excitement shot through her. It only increased when Darien reached up and slowly slid her panties off. She giggled slightly as he brought them to his face and smelled them. Letting them drop to the floor, he moved forward and kissed her belly button. Glancing up at her, Darien shifted backwards slightly until his face was over her vagina. He inhaled deeply and could smell the faintest trace of her musky odor. Extending his tongue, he ran it along her lower lips. When she gasped at the sensation, he smiled internally but did not halt his slow onslaught. Down he traveled to her anal opening. Slowly he tested the opening with his tongue and made her giggle. Working his way back up, he brought his mouth closer. Using his to fingers, he slowly spread both labia before darting his tongue inward. Another gasp. Wiggling his tongue, Darien worked his way towards that most delicate of treasures just above the urethra. He could hear Rini's breathing increasing and it became a little louder as he started assaulting her delicate clitoris with his tongue. And as he stoked her fires, her hips started bucking back and forth. He could tell she was climbing higher. He increased his efforts trying to get the sensitive nub between his teeth. Supporting himself by one hand, he raised the other to one of her firm breasts and started pinching a nipple. "Da...ri...en...!" Rini moaned as she teetered on the edge. Quickly moving his hand, he placed a finger at her anal opening. Clamping his mouth over her vagina, he started running his tongue while pushing his finger into her. Giving a wild buck, Rini orgasmed. Her muscles tightened and she arched forward, allowing his tongue further access into her. Collapsing onto the bed, she lay there gasping for breath. How could she return to how she was before? Darien licked at the sweet nectar flowing from her womanhood. Carefully he withdrew his finger and licked it clean. Finally, after a moment, he looked up at her. "That was great!" she proclaimed. After a moment, Darien stood up and said, "Now it's my turn." Rini gave him a puzzled look. "Do you want to undress me?" "Sure." Slowly getting up, Rini slowly undressed Darien much as he had done to her. "Now what?" Darien sat on the bed and said, "Kneel down." Rini knelt in front of him and she suddenly realized what it was. With Darien prodding her, she moved forward and sniffed his hardening member. "You want me to lick it?" she questioned uncertainly. "It would be better if you suck it," Darien said softly. He groaned slightly as Rini lowered her head and took him into her damp and wet mouth. It took her a few moments to catch onto the idea but then she settled into a slow and steady rhythm. With every slow stroke, she would push and prod with her tongue. The scent of her musk and his own arousal increased the sensation. Darien placed his hands on Rini's head and closed his eyes. He let himself sink into the sensation. At one point, Rini's teeth grated gently over his sensitive penis head and he made a guttural sound. He could feel the pressure building and when he thought he could hold it no more, he moved his hips slight forward and he held her head tightly to him. He could feel the back of her mouth and her muscles tightening. With a grunt, he let loose his load. When he was sated, Darien released Rini's head and flopped back onto the bed with a sigh. Not wanting to swallow the bad tasting semen, Rini ran into the bathroom and spat it forcefully into the sink. How could Serena have liked it? As she brushed her teeth with the toothbrush she had left at Darien's, Rini vowed never again to do what she had just done. The sky above Tokyo was growing dark. Rubeus might have been impatiently waiting in his spaceship for Wiseman to return if it had not been for the beautiful woman that was now lying in his bed asleep. "Who are you?" Rubeus asked softly as he watched her turn. She was unlike any human he had ever met. Certainly she had been frightened but after a day or so, she hadn't even asked to return. That bothered Rubeus; he did not like the unknown... and yet, she had not seemed to pose any threat. He lifted his head as he felt someone appear within the central chamber. Casting one last glance at the sleeping figure, Rubeus stepped through a mirror and entered into the central chamber. "Did I interrupt something?" Wiseman asked. "No Wiseman, I was..." Rubeus hesitated. Perhaps it was unwise to mention his companion. "Do not worry, Rubeus," Wiseman said into the silence, "As long as you are prepared for your assignment, I do not care what you do with the rest of your time." Rubeus relaxed, and then realization dawned on him. "It's time to take the Rabbit?" He'd gladly skip his rendezvous for tonight for that. "No, my minion, it is time to use the Aging Gem on her and Sailor Moon," Wiseman replied, "We must wait until Sailor Moon is out of the picture before we can safely take the Rabbit. Remember that, Rubeus DO NOT take the Rabbit this time. Failure would be very unpleasant I can assure you." "As you command, Wiseman," Rubeus said. As Rini walked towards home, she wondered about Darien. This afternoon had been very enjoyable until the end. For some reason, she couldn't shake the feeling that Darien was lying in some way. And then there was Serena. She could tell that while she and Serena were back to being friends, her cousin was unhappy. Darien was forgetting Serena, but Rini wasn't sure why. "Rabbit..." The voice had been low and from behind her. It was Rubeus' voice and the sound of it sent a shiver through her. Spinning around, Rini looked. "Rabbit..." Turning back to the front again, she saw Rubeus before her. "Ah, there you are." Rini raised her arms to tried and push him away but Rubeus caught her wrists. "Lemme go!" Rini cried out, "Help me!" but the street was empty. "My my, how you have grown," Rubeus purred. If he had not been told by Wiseman where to expect her, he would scarcely have recognized her. Rini tried to escape but Rubeus caught her. He drew her close and squeezed one of her breasts. "Yes, very nice... Let's have a look." Panicked, Rini screamed and shot off a beam of energy into the air. "Good, you're going to struggle. I like that. We're going to have some fun before I turn you over to Wiseman." There was only one way to get away from Rubeus. Rini brought her knee up as hard as she could into Rubeus' groin. Without even uttering a word, her attacker slipped to the ground. Rini didn't waste any time; she ran. Moments later, she rounded the corner and her heart lifted to see the Sailor Scouts. "Rini!" Sailor Moon called out, "What happened?!" Rini ran and dropping to her knees, hugged Sailor Moon tightly. "It was Rubeus," Rini cried, "He... he was touching me so I used my knee." "Good girl!" Sailor Moon said with a smile. "Mercury, any sign of him?" "Yes, I'm picking up Negaverse readings." "Then let's go!" Jupiter said while smacking her fist into her other hand. "We gotta get that crystal of his." "Who says he has it?" Sailor Venus asked. "If he doesn't, we'll make him give it to us," Jupiter replied. "Sailor Moon, you and Rini stay here. We'll go check this out," Sailor Mars said. Sailor Moon might have protested this but Rini was obviously very upset so she agreed. Rini continued to hug Sailor Moon tightly. As the other Sailor Scouts ran towards where Mercury's readings indicated Rubeus was, Sailor Moon said, "Don't worry, Rini, well get him." "I know, then you could get big again, huh?" Rini said. Sailor Moon was about to answer when her communicator beeped. "Moon here," Sailor Moon said after answering it, "What's up?" "Sailor Moon, watch out for Rubeus. That reading that Mercury found was just a big ball of negaenergy." "What?!?" Sailor Moon and Rini asked together. "You heard me!" Mars snapped, "Don't be a meatball head!" Sailor Moon stuck her tongue out at Sailor Mars before switching off. "When did Rubble-head get so sneaky?" "When the hounds are around, the fox has to be careful when he wants a tasty rabbit or two," Rubeus' voice answered. Sailor Moon and Rini looked upwards and found Rubeus floating above them. Sailor Moon reached for her communicator again then saw the black crystal in Rubeus' hands. Scrambling up, she gathered herself up and was about to jump when Rini caught her. "No, call the others!" Rini said while restraining Sailor Moon, "You're too little!" It was hard for him to see how this diminutive Sailor Moon could be a threat but he wasn't about to cross Wiseman. Seeing his opportunity, Rubeus activated the black crystal and sent his attack at the two rabbits. He watched in satisfaction as his attack found its targets. "MARS CELESTIAL FIRE SURROUND!" Rubeus jerked his head around and saw the other Sailor Scouts off to his left. Mars' attack streaked towards him but Rubeus teleported away at the last instant. His job done, Rubeus went back to his spaceship to wait once again and to the beautiful woman awaiting him.
