Serenity's plan Rated pg13 By Cindra I guess that you guys didn't like the title the first time, So I'm trying this new one to see if you like it... I really didn't mean to offend anyone by titling it the Way that I had.... On with the story... The girls had decided to take Sere away from the twins and treat her with a girl's day of fun and shopping. While the men stayed home and watched over the 9-month-old babies. Dare and Sere had thrown them all a huge wedding a month after the twins were born so all of them were blissfully happily married and were also with child. "Are you sure that it was a good idea to leave my angels alone with them...I mean what if Zach and Dare have an emergency at the hospital? Do Nate, Kev, and Jared even know how to change a diaper or prepare a bottle?" Sere frowned at her friends as they dragged her into Millennium to each lunch. "This will be good practice for them besides, Dare and Zach aren't on call this weekend." Ami tried to get her to relax. "I know that it took them two bags of diapers that one time, but they really do know what they are doing now. They have incentive now that they are father's to be." Mina patted her rounding belly. "But we did leave them with plenty of diapers and formula just in case, now please try and relax and enjoy this taste of freedom." Raye rolled her eyes at Sere. "What if they take their first steps and I'm not there!" Sere was having a major time being away from her babies. "Serenity will you please relax! They are fine and we are going to enjoy our day of shopping!" Raye snarled at her and ordered lunch for both of them. "Listen to me Raye! You have no idea what this is like yet so back off!" Sere's moon symbol was beginning to appear on her forehead. "Easy Sere we know that you hate to leave them and even take them with you when you're working on the anime, but they are perfectly safe and sound with Dare. So it is safe to assume that it's alright to let your hair down and try and have some fun for a change." Amy tried to get Sere to calm down and relax. Sere's Cellphone rang. "Hello?! What's wrong Dare is it the twins?!" she panicked when she heard Dare's voice on the other end of the line. "Easy angel the twins are fine...I was just checking to see how your day was going." Dare calmed her with his voice. Raye grabbed the Cellphone from Sere and talked to him. "She's being paranoid! She thinks that you men are going to warp the twins and refuses to relax enough to have any fun! She isn't even enjoying her lunch! Do something or I may have to come over there and give you a hot foot!!" Raye snarled into the phone and then handed it back to Sere. "Angel you really have to try and calm down. We are not going to warp the twins...Did you actually say that to the girls?!" Dare sounded like he was trying to rein his temper. "Never mind what I just said...I want you to relax, shop till you drop and have fun or else! Understand me meatball head?! The twins are fine this is your day so enjoy it!" he ordered her. "I'm sorry muffin but I miss them!" Sere whimpered. "I know that you miss them, but you need this time away." Dare could almost see the tears pooling in her azure blue eyes. "And the scouts are going to kill the guys if you come back early. It's only for a few hours and you love to shop." "You win Endy I will try and have fun, but if they walk while I am having fun you are moon dust!" Sere hissed into the phone. "Got it my sweet no walking until you get home...I think that I can manage that. What's your first stop?" Dare frantically raced over and stopped the guys from coaching the twins into taking their first steps. "I was thinking of stopping into Victoria's secret and picking up a few things." She waited for his reaction and the phone hit the carpet on the other end. "Endy? Are you still there?" winked at the other girls who were trying not to laugh for fear of choking on their food. "What did you say to him to make him break out in a cold sweat?" Kev picked up the phone. "Hello big brother now don't you dare try and teach them to walk while I am away I want to be there for their first steps." She ordered him. "Answer the question Serenity." Kev growled. "I merely told him that I was going to pick up a few things at Victoria's Secret not that it is any business of yours!" Sere growled back. "Now give him back the phone!" "The twins are paging me sweetheart have a nice time! Love you!" he ended the call. Sere grinned wickedly at her court. "Let's hurry and finish lunch girls I have a lot of shopping to do." She dug into her food. "Hey girls I think that we have the old Serena back with us again." Mina could see that Sere was back to her playful self. "I never left its just hard to not be serious when you have twins that depend on you." Sere winked at her friends. "So are you planning on making Darien squirm?" Raye grinned at her friend. "Yes Sere I can tell that you are up to something...tell us how you're going to bring the prince to his knees." Ami seconded Raye's question. "The shoe is going to be on the other foot for once and I am going to plan his seduction and he isn't even going to know what hit him. " She dialed her mother's number on her cellphone. "Momma its Serena...I was wondering if you and Daddy would like to watch the twins tonight. You would that's great you can pick them up at seven. I love you to! Kiss daddy for me! Bye Momma." "He won't even know what hit him." Lita held up her glass of milk for a toast. "To our men we love them to death but they can be so hopelessly clueless. And to Sere may her prince fall to his knees at her feet." Sere was busy arranging the rest of her husband's downfall. "Andrew? It's Serena I need you to do me a big favor and distract Darien for me at for a few hours. I'll be home by five I just need you to keep him away our place until seven. You will! Thanks I owe you big! Bye!" she continued to make several more calls. ~~~~ Dare set his sleeping babies in their cribs and left the nursery. He knew that Sere was up to something when her mother called to verify that she was picking up the twins at seven. *What are you up to? You couldn't leave them less than two hours ago and now its okay for them to spend the night at your parent's house? * Dare joined the rest of the guys in the game room for a game of poker. "So what do you think that she's up to?" he looked over at Zach. "She wants the two of you alone for an entire night and you are questioning that?" Jare eyed Dare as if he were nuts. Before he could answer the phone rang. " This is Darien...Hi Andrew...sure no problem I'll see you around five...bye." He now knew that she was up to something. "Andrew just made the craziest excuse to get me out of the house when Sere gets home. He hasn't focused on the Crown in years and now he decides to remodel it? He wants me to come and check out the plans for the new Arcade." "It does sound to me like our princess is plotting something, but I doubt that it's anything that you're going to regret in the morning." Nate had used Dare's computer to check his email and on the tonight's guest list and special dinners at the Millennium and saw that Sere had ordered dinner for two to be delivered to the mansion at 6:30 that evening. "Sounds more like the princess wants to seduce her prince." Kev watched as Dare's face flushed crimson. "Either that or she wants to bring you to your knees." Zach chuckled and just think the girls can more than help her carry out her little plan. "This is Serenity that you guys are talking about! Not Venus, Mars, or Jupiter! She's the mother of twins! " Dare didn't know if he liked the fact that his princess was going to try and seduce him...no he didn't like it one bit. "Look Darien! If Mercury can lure Zoi into a closet at the hospital and have her way with him, then our Sere can turn the tables on you. The Scouts have very devious minds when it comes to getting what they want and in this case Sere has decided that she is going to have you and not the other way around." Kev enlightened him on the fact that Serenity was just as devious as the other scouts. "I for one have never been able to look at a closet the same way again. That and our efforts created our unborn son." Zach grinned at them as he drew two more cards. "Lita lured me into our green house and well I've never been able to look at plants the same way either and we have a little unborn baby girl as a result of our union." Nate confided. "Mina had her way with me at in the private balcony of that theater that she convinced me to buy...and lets just say that I love the theater now and our son was created that day." Kev had a smug grin on his face and turned to look over at Jare. "Raye lured me to the recording studio at the Silver Millennium to listen to a song that she had just cut for the anime and then afterwards celebrated by having her way with me. The result of her efforts is our unborn baby girl." Jared was the last to confide that he was a fallen man as well. "You can't honestly tell us that Sere has never once lured you somewhere and had you at her mercy! You two can't keep your hands off each other for ten minutes so that isn't possible!" The guys waited for Dare to answer only nursery monitor saved him by alerting Dare that the twins were awake and not happy. Dare sprinted out of the game room and some air, but the guys were not giving up the chase. "Sorry guys but duty calls." He sprinted up the stairs and headed for the nursery. ~~~~ Sere had ended up in Selena's boutique because Victoria's Secret still had not had what she was looking for. Now that virtual peace had seemed to come over the planet as well as the Galaxy, Selena Meiou was able to focus on what she loved to do best and that was designing high fashion designer clothing and she was one of the best on the planet. "You know how the delicate the prince's ego is why risk harming it by showing him that even he can be brought down to his knees." Selena arched a brow at Sere. "Even the great Tuxedo Mask deserves to be shown that he isn't the only one that can romance socks off some one. I've just rarely shown my more devious side to him." Sere looked at Sel's latest private line of night attire and grinned. "Were you honestly going to add these to your new line? Do we at least get first choice as to what we want before you release it to the public?" She held up a sheer white silk version of her princess gown. "I mean this is my gown and I honestly don't think that I could stand knowing that someone else had one as well and that goes the same for our scout uniforms." "Relax Serenity that is the line that I designed for us not for the public eye. I designed each of you your own private line of clothing and lingerie and yours is the first one that I've completed." Sel showed her the rest of the line. "I'll bet that he never looks at my scout uniform the same way again." Sere held up a teddy that was similar to what she wore as a scout. "To be honest you really don't need any of this to bring him to his knees all that you really need are those glorious angelic wings of yours and nothing at all. You have the ultimate weapon and only use it for sailor business. I know that Luna and I have always told you that anything else was abusing your powers, but in this case I think you can bend the rules." Selena actually winked at her. " Sere's eyebrows shot up as she listened to what the keeper of time was suggesting that she do. "I haven't used my wings since I defeated Galaxia, but I guess that it's worth a shot. That doesn't however mean that I can't have all of this as a back up plan." She winked back at Selena. "Where are the rest of the girls?" Sel went about seeing to her princess's request and personally boxed up her purchases. "They get way to depressed now that they can't fit into anything anymore and are over at the baby store looking at all the baby things." Sere grinned. "You are really enjoying this now that they are all huge and you are the one that can wear anything that you want." Sel handed her the dress bag and the other packages that contained accessories to the various outfits. "Now they know how I felt all of those times when they dragged me from store to store...its not fun not being able to wear what you want to wear, but the end result is something that I wouldn't give up for all the outfits in the world." She handed Sel the photo CD with the latest pictures of the babies on it. "I've got to get going or this is never going to work as I planned. I'll email you how it went." She hugged Sel and raced out of the store. ~~~~ The guys had decided that they missed the girls and the twins wanted their momma so they all met up with them at the mall. "Okay you two lets go fine your momma." Dare pushed the stroller towards Sel's store just in time to see his wife come sprinting out of the front doors with her arms loaded with packages. "Ma! Ma! Ma!" Rose squealed happily. "Da!!!" Rafe looked up at his father and then pointed to his mother. "Ma! Ma!" "I see that... now how are we going to get her attention?" Dare reached into his pocket and pulled out his Cellphone. "Ma!!!!" Rose was not happy that her mother hadn't come when she had been called. "Shh...it's okay angel. Daddy will get her attention." He cooed down at his little girl as Sere finally managed to answer her Cellphone. "Hi sweetness are you enjoying your day?" he was not ten feet from where she was standing. "I'm enjoying my shopping spree, but I miss you and the babies. Is everything okay?" Sere sensed that he was near by but that wasn't possible seeing as he was at home and she was at the mall. "We missed you to...in fact if you turn around you might find that Rose wants you to look at her." He was now right behind her. Sere turned around and saw that her family had decided to come to her. "Hi muffin were you missing me that much." She kissed him before cooing down at the babies. "How are Momma's little angels?" "Ma! Ma!" The twins chattered up at her. "Does that answer your question?" Dare noticed that all of her packages were from Sel's boutique. "Are you about done or do you have more shopping to do?" "No I'm done...I was just going to join the others. They are over at the baby store." She smiled at him. "Why was there something that you wanted to do tonight?" "Well your mom called and begged to take the twins for the night and I told her that you and I could use some quality time alone together. So we're going to drop off the twins at your parents home and then how about we go out to dinner and maybe catch that movie that you've been dying to see." Dare waited for her reaction. "Didn't Andrew call you this afternoon? I saw him and Rita today and he wanted you to look at something. I guess that he want's to remodel the Crown or something like that?" Sere acted as if what he was saying was perfectly fine with her. "I told him that I would meet him there at five, but he won't mind if I cancel. Not if I tell him that you and I want some quality time alone together." He all but purred into her ear as he produced a rose out of thin air and ran it's soft along her cheek. "He really wanted to talk to you today, so why don't you go and see what he wants to show you. Then I can take a bubble bath or something while you're away and then get dressed for that dinner and a movie. " Sere didn't even miss a beat as she spoke and ignored the effect that he was having on her senses. "You sure that you won't mind?" Dare arched a brow at her. "Of course not muffin." She smiled up at him. "It really shouldn't take me more than a half hour or and hour at the most and then you and I can focus on us for a change." He tilted her chin with his finger and then kissed her. *He's not playing fair! He must suspect that I'm up to something! If only Momma hadn't called to confirm that she was picking up the twins tonight.* Serena was not about to let him ruin her plans for him and used all the control that she had left to break off the kiss. "I really don't mind Muffin...Andrew is a very good friend of ours and he wouldn't ask your opinion if he didn't think that you could help..." Her voice trailed off as she looked up into his eyes and got lost in the endless sapphire depths of his eyes. *Great Going Sere look into his eyes and melt!* she berated herself. *Fight this all that you want my sweet, but I am the one that is going to win this little battle of ours.* Dare knew that she was fighting a losing battle she never could resist him when he looked into her eyes. "Nothing is going to interrupt the two of us tonight and that my sweet is a promise." He kissed her on the tip of her nose. All hell broke loose in the Mall and she didn't have a chance to counter his challenge. "Darien get the twins out of here!" she raced towards the commotion at the center of the mall. ::Damn it Serena you don't know what the situation is and you can't fight them on your own!!:: Dare shouted in her mind. ::I am more than capable of handling this on my own! Now do as I say!:: She hissed back. "Cosmos moon power!" she shouted and transformed into Sailor Cosmos her final and ultimate transformation of Sailor Moon. Dare raced into Selena's store. "Where's Selena?!" he shouted at one of the Sales clerks. "Please sir lower your voice!" Terry hissed. Hailey Tome calmly walked over to Darien. "She's in her studio... and please refrain from shouting you are scaring the clients!" Hailey narrowed her eyes at Darien. "What is the big emergency anyway?" "Terry would you please close the Boutique for the time being and you can take the rest of the day off...Hailey bring Darien and my godchildren to my studio." Sel's voice came over the intercom on Terry's desk. Terry raced over to her desk and answered her boss. "Yes Ms. Meiou." She answered back and then left the boutique. "Wait a second something is going on in the mall!" Hailey saw that people were running frantically in all directions. "Yes they are Hal and guess who went to see what was going on." Dare ushered her into Sel's office. "This is so not good...she can't fight something alone..." Hailey was getting major Nega vibes from the center of the mall. "I've called Erica and Michelle they are already on there way here. I don't however think that there is any need for any of us to panic...she has mastered the Silver Emperium crystal and can easily handled any battle." Selena had transformed into Sailor Pluto. Lita, Raye, Mina, and Ami all raced into the boutique and into Sel's studio. "We'll watch the babies you need to go help her! We can't and this guy is like a dead ringer for Jared! If you know what I mean!" Raye filled them in on the situation. "What?! Jadeite's clone is awake!?" Dare shouted in disbelief. "Let's just say that he's not happy at the moment and while were at it since when does our princess wear a silver costume?!" Mina frowned at him. "She's more than handling him, but there is the problem of to many innocents getting in the way." Lita hated not being able to do anything. "She is more powerful than all of us combined and she called herself Sailor Cosmos instead of Eternal Sailor Moon." Ami had scanned Sere with her computer and was floored by the results. "Look I really don't have time for twenty questions! Where are the generals?!" Tuxedo Mask glared at them. "They are backing her up and keeping the crowd under control... they can't transform into the generals because there are to many eyes in the mall! The media was covering some big record signing and now they are covering the fight!" Raye glared at him in annoyance. "Did I mention that Stephen, Trevor, and Justin were back?" "The Three Lights!? This just keeps getting better and better!" Tux was not pleased with the news. "Anything else?" "Sailor Galaxia is fighting along side Sere only her scout uniform is identical to ours now only her color is gold, but that doesn't matter go help the princess!" Mina snarled. Pluto and Saturn had already left to join the battle. Sailor Chibi Moon ran into the boutique. "You guys are missing an awesome battle! I mean Momma is like kicking this guys butt!" she was now fourteen years of age and was wearing a pink version of her mother's original sailor uniform. "Hi Daddy!" "Stay here with your brother and sister!" Tux ordered her. "But Daddy! I want to help Momma fight! My aunts can baby-sit the twins!" Chibi Moon pouted. "That's true but they can't fight and I want you here with the twins just in case!" Tux was not in the mood to argue and raced out of the room to go help his princess. *So much for our evening alone! * Tux felt like screaming. "I never get to have any fun!" she sulked but did as she was told. ~~~ Sailor Cosmos was tired of this battle and was going to use her silver crystal to put a stop to the evil Jadeite's rampage. "You were a mistake created by Beryl and now I will correct that mistake by turning you to moon dust!" she easily dodged one of his blasts. "So the moon brat his grown up! Where's your friends and Cape boy?!" the clone sneered at her. "You can't use the crystal in here there are to many innocents that could get hurt if he dodges your blast." Sailor Galaxia warned the princess. "I have compete control over my crystal...but you do have a point." She used the millennium tier to place a protective barrier around the civilians that had decided to stay and watch. "That should keep them safe while I finish this battle with the evil version of Jadeite." "You don't really need the scouts anymore do you Serenity?" Sailor Galaxia was impressed. "Yes I have grown up you reject from the clone factory and I don't need the scouts or Tuxedo Mask to beat you!" Sailor Cosmos glared at him. "No but its nice to have back up near by just in case I need it." She glanced over at Galaxia just as Jadeite fired off one of his blasts. "Sailor Moon!!!?" Sailor Star fighter whisked her out of the line of fire. "Fighter?!" she gasped in surprise. "What are you doing here?" Tuxedo sent a glowing red rose at the evil clone and the force of the explosion sent him flying into the fountain. "I don't think so Jadeite!" he shouted. "Back off creep!" Sailor Saturn shouted. "You have caused more than enough damage and it is going to stop now!" Sailor Pluto stood next to Saturn. "Ah so there are more of you are there? No Matter I will dispatch you one at a time!" Jadeite snarled. "We'll catch up later...you have a mad man to take care of." Fighter set her back down on her feet. "You're right." Sailor Cosmos got down to business. " You are going down Jadeite! In case you haven't noticed the four generals are alive and well and on my side!" "That is impossible moon brat! The four generals are dead!" he snarled. "On the contrary I am very much alive." Jared was in full general mode and now stood next to Sere. "I do not however like seeing my evil clone destroying everything in site!" "That's not possible!" the clone shouted in protest. "No you are the one that isn't suppose to be possible and I have been waiting years to pay you back for what you did to Mars!" he snarled at the clone and with one gesture of his hand sent him flying into the front window of a vacant store. "Thanks Jadeite I'll take it from here now that he's away from the crowd." Cosmos winked at her big brother. "It's time to get dusted you creep!" she stood outside the storefront. "I don't think so Moon Brat!" he sent glass flying at her nailing her with a shards of glass. "No!!!!" Tux cried out as the glass struck his wife and rushed to her side. "Sailor Moon!!!" Pluto, Saturn, Jared, and Fighter shouted in horror. Sere ignored the pain and the wounds that his . "Silver Moon Cosmos Elimination!!" she sent a beam of white hot energy at him and then fell back into her husbands arms.. "NO!!!! I will not be defeated!!" he screamed in agony and within seconds was nothing but a pile of dust on the empty floor. ::I'm sorry Muffin...you were right...I did need back up...:: she winced in pain. "How bad is it?" she didn't want to open her eyes. "Just stay still while I'm trying to find out." Tux could see that the glass had cut her arm and her leg pretty deeply but nothing had come close to any of her vital parts. ::We'll talk later...I need to get you to the hospital...so that I can see to those cuts of yours.:: Zach rushed over to them with the medical bad from his car, "I'm a doctor let me help." He acted as if he had never met Tuxedo. "Shows over everyone now get out of my way!" Uranus and Neptune made the scene. "Sorry that we were late...is she going to be okay?" Neptune arched a brow at Pluto. Jadeite created a portal for all of them to walk into. "I think that this is a better idea..." he saw that no one was even close to leaving the scene. "Excellent idea Jade!" Tux carried her into the portal. "I'm sorry but this is just so that you can't tell anyone where we're going." Saturn blindfolded Zach. "I understand completely." Zach let her lead him into the portal. ::Meet us at Sel's boutique:: he sent to the others. ::Already on our way...:: Kev sent back. ::The girls are going to kill us...:: Nate groaned. ::It's the couch tonight for all of us...:: Kev agreed. ~~~~ Raye paced the plush carpet of Sel's studio. "Something happened to Sere!" she snarled. "Calm down Raye! You are going to scare Renny!" Ami frowned. "Calm down! Calm down!? How can I calm down when that reject from the clone factory hurt Sere!!?" she glared at Ami. A portal opened in the room and out stepped Jade, Tux, Zoi, Saturn, Pluto, Sailor Galaxia, and Sailor Star Fighter. "Serena!!!?" The girls converged on their fallen princess. "Momma!!" Renny saw that her mother was injured. The crystal was keeping her from losing to much blood and Saturn was using her healing abilities to heal some of her wounds. "I can only do so much she needs you both to do the rest." "The only thing that is keeping her from bleeding is that she is still in her scout transformation..." Zoi frowned at Tux. "I know that but we can't treat her here we need to get her to the hospital." Tux growled. "And the only bad thing is that the press will be stationed there to and that's the last thing that I want her subjected to right now!" "We don't have any other choice!" Ami snapped at them. "She can't keep using the crystal it slowly drains her remember!" "Will the three of you stop arguing and help her!!!" Fighter snarled at them. "Who the hell asked you for your opinion anyway!" Tux glared at Fighter. "I'm a surgeon and so are Zach and Ami! I don't need to be told how to treat my WIFE'S injuries!!!" "Wife?!" Fighter's eyebrows shot up. "Wife and mother of our twins!" he growled. "Twins!?" Fighter noticed the two babies sleeping in the playpen in Sel's studio. "Knock it off and get her to the hospital now!!!!!!!" Kev stalked into the room he was not at all happy. "Zoi open a portal to the clinic...its not even open right now that way you can treat her and not worry about the press." Ami had a solution to their problem. "Thanks ice...at least one of us is keeping a clear head about all of this." Zoi did as he was told. "Let's go Dare..." he motioned for him to pick her up. "Sorry I'm just not having a good day...Renny take care of your brother and sister for us we'll meet you back home and don't worry your momma is going to fine." He looked over at his daughter. "You can count on me Daddy...just help momma." Renny whimpered. "I will small lady...we just have her under a sleep spell she'll be fine as soon as we patch her up." He entered the portal after Zoi and Ami. ~~~ An hour later Serena awoke in her own bed with bandages on her arm and leg. She felt like screaming and tearing something in two. This was going to ruin everything! She looked over at the clock and saw that it was only a little after 4:30 in the afternoon. She also noticed that she was still in her scout uniform. "I will not let that creep ruin my plans!" she muttered under her breath and attempted to get out of bed. "Momma!! What are you doing!?" Renny raced into the room and made her lie back down. "I am trying to get up..." she glared at her daughter. "Daddy said that you need rest and that means that you aren't going anywhere." Renny glared back. "Where is your father anyway?" Sere frowned. "I'm right here love...how are you feeling?" Dare walked into their bedroom with a nice hot cup of green tea for her to drink. "I'm fine and I want out of this bed...not to mention out of my scout uniform." She frowned. "That uniform helps you heal and is the only thing that prevented you from needing a blood transfusion...as for you getting out of that bed well I don't think so unless the only reason is to use the bathroom." Dare narrowed his eyes at her. "You scared the hell out of me and everyone else for that matter so don't even try and give me a hard time about you having to stay in bed." "I'll use the crystal to heal my injuries...it can do that you know." She pouted. "Honestly Serena what am I going to do with you?" Luna hopped up onto the bed. "Look Luna I messed up and underestimated him okay! I do not want nor do I need another lecture!" she glared at her. "Now watch and I will show the three of you what my crystal can do!" she closed her eyes, her whole body seemed to have a golden aura and her moon symbol blazed on her forehead. ::Damnit Serenity you've used it too much today! What do you think prevented you from bleeding to death?!:: Dare was not at all happy with her. "Renny your mother and I need to have a talk...alone." He looked over at his daughter. "I understand Daddy...lets go Luna." She called to the cat and Luna followed her out the door. ::I know what I am doing Endymion so calm down! Healing my self uses very little energy from my crystal.:: She opened her eyes and sat up. "See Endy...there was nothing to worry about and I could have done this sooner, but you had Zoi put a sleep spell on me." "I did that for a reason...you were in pain and I didn't know how bad your injuries were. Now lay back down." He crawled in next to her. "You can go see Andrew as planned I am perfectly fine now." Sere looked over at him. "And you can drop Renny and the babies off at Momma's on your way there." She got out of bed, detransformed back into her normal self and left the bedroom. "Sere get back here!" Dare stalked after her. Sere ignored him and entered the nursery. "How are Momma's angels?" she smiled when the two of them stood up and started to chatter at her. "How would you like to go with your sister to your grandma and grandpa's tonight?" she picked Rafe up in her arms. "Ma! Ma!" Rafe chattered happily. "Da! Da!" Rose called out to her father. "Careful or you'll open up your wound." He frowned at Sere. Sere handed him Rafe and proceeded to take off the bandage. "What wound?" she showed him her arm. "Do you see any sign of a wound? I don't." she picked up Rose. "Daddy is getting paranoid." She cooed down at her daughter. "Grandma is here for the twins ...does this mean that the two of you wanted to be alone tonight?" Renny arched a brow at her parents. "That was the plan sweety you don't mind staying at Grandma's house with the babies do you?" she winked at her daughter. "Serenity!? She does not need to know that!" Dare's face flushed crimson. "Honestly Daddy I am fourteen now I know all about that and have for a long time now...I'll just pack the babies stuff and then I'll leave the two of you so that you can spend quality time alone with each other." She grinned at her father and winked at her mother. "I am not hearing this!" Dare tried not to panic at the thought of his baby knowing about the birds and the bees. "Why don't you go take that bubble bath while I go and see what Andrew wanted me to look at." He kissed Sere, Renny, and the twin's goodbye and beat a hasty retreat. "Thanks sweety I owe you a huge hot fudge sundae or better yet pancakes." She winked at her daughter. "What was wrong with Darien he seemed upset about something?" Ellen Tsukino entered the nursery. "He's just upset because Renny is growing up a little to fast and I kind of got hurt today." She smiled at her mother. "I saw what happened on the news...are you okay your father and I were worried. " she frowned at her child. "I'm fine momma my crystal helps me heal any injury." She rolled her eyes at her mother. "Daddy is going to flip when he sees how much Renny has grown." "She looks like you did when you were her age." Ellen smiled at her granddaughter. "Momma just wants us to leave so that she can surprise Daddy. Isn't that right Momma." Renny grinned at her mother. "No wonder he ran in terror...Renny knows a little more than he wants her too and he can't handle it." Ellen giggled. "Let's go Renny...you bring the twins and I'll carry their stuff to the car. "Have fun Serena." She winked at her daughter. Serena hugged Renny and the twins before going to get ready for her husband's return. ~~~ (An hour or so later) Dare returned home to find that all the lights were out except for candle's that were lit all over the various rooms, a fire was burning in the fireplace, soft music was playing on the entertainment system. There was a candlelit dinner set for two and his princess was no where to be found. "Sere?" he called softly. ::I'll be right with you muffin...:: purred in his head. ::Why don't you go upstairs and put on what I bought you today and then come and join me by the fire.:: Dare did as he was told. He was curious to see what she had bought him and even more curious to know what else she had planned. He found a sapphire blue robe made of silk and a matching set of silk pajama bottoms and took them with him into the master bath so that he could take a fast shower. He had remembered having had similar attire when he had been a prince. He showered, shaved, and dressed in record time and headed back down stairs. ::I like my present.:: He growled softly, ::And I can't wait for the rest of my surprise.:: He went to join her by the fire but she wasn't there. "Serenity?" He looked around for his wife. "I'm right here Endymion." She walked into the room. She was dressed in the sheer creation that Sel had designed based on her princess gown and she had left her hair down so that it flowed freely down her back and went to sit down at the table. "Come join me for dinner." Dare's heart almost stopped as he drank in the sight of her, and lets just say that dinner was the farthest thing from his mind as he sat down across from her. "I'm famished but it isn't for food." His gaze seemed to burn through the thin silk of her gown as he continued to stare at her. "Endymion Darian Shields you are not playing fair..." she pouted at him her azure blue eyes pleaded with his darker sapphire ones. "I'm sorry Serenity It was not my intention to upset you." He fed her a bite of his dinner. "Why must you always be so difficult..." Sere got up out of her chair and stalked out of the room. "Sere? This is silly don't get your feather's all ruffled." Dare followed after her. ::I love you and you love me...and that is all that matters.:: he walked into the library and saw that even that was lit by candlelight and a roaring fire in the fireplace and what was standing beside the fireplace nearly brought him to down to his knee's unto plush oriental rug. * I have died and gone to heaven! I have dreamed of having those wings wrapped around me since I held her in my arms after the aftermath of the battle with Chaos...and now she's offering me the ultimate taste of heaven...something that no one else can ever have. * Sere was standing by the fire and she was wearing and was covered only by her glorious set of Angel's wings. ::Come here my love let me cherish you...like you have cherished me. Just this once surrender all that you are for to me and let me love you...can you do that my love, my knight, my prince, and my husband?:: She opened her wings and her arms to him as she whispered in his mind and he walked into her arms. Dare had never felt anything like this in his life...as her wings cradled him against her. ::All that you have to do is ask and what ever you wish or want will be given...I am and always will be yours to command my angel, my warrior, my princess and my wife.:: They lost themselves in the unbreakable power of their love. ~~~~ Hi!
