blah.
Any who . . . on with the story that I have failed to update. Like I promised I would. I'm kinda blocked in the area of writing right know so it might take me a while with chapter 7.
Chapter 6: What's and How's
Serena walked into the main room of the shrine, and shivered, she knew at that moment that what ever it was that this man had to tell her wasn't going to be all hugs and puppies, it had to be bad. The look on the man's face was one of pity and sadness, when she noticed this she knew. It had to be something about her family, what else could it be, she would have known if it was Darien, and all the scouts were there, except for Pluto, and she was at the time-gate. These thoughts were confirmed when the man finally spoke.
"Are you Serena Tsukino," He questioned in quiet depressed tone.
"Yes sir, I'm Serena Tsukino," She whispered, *Well that confirms it, I have know family any more, I had a feeling like emptiness and now I know why, I'm an orphan.*
"Miss I'm sorry you have to here this kind of bad news so early in the morning but it couldn't be helped," The police officer stated, "I regret to inform you that Kenneth, Irene, and Samuel Tsukino were killed in a House fire that started some time late last night or early this morning, we were called to the seen at 3:30 this morning after the fire had been put out. There is nothing left of your home, I'm very sorry miss, but there was nothing left, you can hold a memorial service if you would like, again I am very sorry, and if you need anything my department will be willing to help out with every thing."
"I have one question for you," Raye asked continuing when he nodded, "how did the fire start?"
"It is speculated that it started with a gas leak and a lit candle, kind of like a fire ball, but we are not sure," He exclaimed, *No use worrying the girl, its only speculation that it was arcsine, and there is no one who might have done it.*
*He is so lying, there is something else he's not telling us, something that could possibly be extremely important.* Raye said o her self, *I'll have to use the sacred fire*
"Thank you officer, we can take it from here, we will get everything together for her, thank you for telling us" Amy reassured, walking the officer to the door.
When Amy was sure he was gone she closed the door, and turned back towards the room the scouts occupied.
"I don't think that officer was telling us everything, actually I know he wasn't telling us everything, I don't buy his story on how the fire started, if you asked me I'd say that it was arcsine." Raye shouted, slightly irritated with the officer for leaving things out.
"Raye girl calm down why don't you go find out what actually happened with the sacred fire," Lita prompted, trying to dissipate her friend's anger, knowing it wasn't going to help.
"Serena, chica, do you want to talk about it, I know it came as a really shock to you but you can't hold it all in," Mina supported, throwing her arms around her friends shoulders in a hug.
"That's the thing Mina, it wasn't a shock, I had a feeling in the middle of the night like something happened, I felt suddenly empty like something was ripped out of me, like my soul was torn in two, ya know, and ya know what else I agree with Raye I don't think it was an accident, and I think I know who did it too." Serena whispered.
"Who Serena," Amara asked speaking for the first time since the police officer had told them the news.
"I'll tell you all when Raye gets back before I tell you I want conformation on it before I say anything." She insisted.
"Ya'll wont need to wait long, I'm back and if Serena's think of the same person as I just saw she is more than right, and I know the reason behind his madness, so Serena tell them, then I'll explain," Raye prompted.
"Well, ya know since we all cant read minds, its imperative that you tell us, even if it is just speculation," Amy snapped, slightly annoyed with all the waiting.
"Darien," Serena mused, still trying to come to grips with it even being possible, *I think I know why he did it but still, how I thought we were at least friends, I know we broke up but . . . *
WHAT'S, and HOW'S echoed throughout the small shrine room, while Serena sat oblivious to the state of the people around her. Raye gave a confirming nod to her when she was pulled from her thoughts by the confused and angry scouts.
"I'll kill the bastard," Luna screamed flexing her claws to make them look bigger and more harmful.
"No Luna, that won't be necessary," Serena chuckled lightly with a slightly hunting tone.
Grudgingly Luna calmed slightly still muttering words like kill, bastard, moron, and such. Serena noticing her anger pulled her into her lamp and started to stroke her black coat like a child with any other animal. They were both seeking comfort from one another, yes Luna may be just a cat but she loved the Tsukino's just as much as Serena.
"What do you mean Darien did it, Why would he want to, your parents didn't do anything to him," Mina asked confused as only a blonde could be.
"I mean, Darien set my house on fire killing my family, which I think he really didn't mean to do, I think it was a failed attempted on my life. He didn't really think though, if he would have been throe and checked everything out, like "hey maybe she's at her friends house' kind of thing then maybe my family wouldn't be ashes," she whispered tears starting to fall down her pale milk white cheeks.
"Why would he want you dead, I mean yeah you broke up, so, I mean like grow up," Mina went on, still slightly confused about the whole thing.
"Revenge," Raye broke in, staring at Serena waiting to see her reaction to this new development.
"That's what I thought to," Amara agreed, "I just don't know what he needed revenge for," she questioned.
"He's angry at me for braking up with him and I think he is a little mentally unstable," Serena explained with a slightly laughing tone, "Other than that I don't know why."
"No offence Sere but you're his only way to the throne of Crystal Tokyo, and with you leaving he sees his only chance of ruling flying out the window," Raye offered as her explanation to the whole thing, "I mean wouldn't you kinda go a little psychotic if you saw your safety cushion for a comfy, and pampered future walk out your front door," she questioned.
"I feel bad fro him because he's been expecting this since he found out and I use to consider him a friend, but then I remember what he did and I cant get passed the wanting to kill him," Lita professed.
"Thanks for not shooting my idea down, I feel like I'm right on this one and since Raye seems to agree with me," She diagnosed after getting an affirmative nod from Raye. "So what are we going to do now," Amy questioned, " it's not like we have any evidence to take to the police, all we have are speculations, which are more than likely correct but the law can not do anything with them."
"I think I'm going to go back, to my brother," Serena whispered, waiting for the obvious reaction the scouts were going to have, * 1 . . . 2 . . . . 3 . . . . *
"WHAT, WHY"
"I don't have any family left here; I don't even have family here to hold a memorial for my parents and brother, I want to see my real family, I need to see Treize, now that I have the memories back it hurts to be separated like this, we use to be really close yeah he's older than me but we did everything together he treated me like I wasn't a child like I was the same age as him, I need my brother, and now that I have a reason and the ability to go back I'm going to take the chance, I need to do this, it's important to me, and according to Pluto there isn't really a reason to stay anymore she said most of the bad guys are taken care of, until the dark moon comes, and even that might not happen considering the lake of a relationship between Darien and I," Serena exclaimed in a desperate and sad voice.
"Well, then why don't we call Pluto and find out if its possible for us to go back to the future, (AN: ~_~ I'm sorry for the lameness that is that statement, it was a good movie though, ^_^) that way we will know what to expect before discussing this any further," Amy advised, looking around the room at all of the people present.
"I'm going to have to agree with Amy on this one, I think that it's a good idea, and after that you can decide what needs to be done," Luna agreed form her place on Serena's lap.
"So call her already Serena gosh," Raye laughed, trying to lighten the solemn mood that had befallen the occupants of the Cherry Hill Temple. "I was just kidding, but it would be a good idea to call her now." She exclaimed after the looks she got from Amara and Michelle.
"You mean you guys want to go with me, you would be leaving everything you know, family, other friends, you futures here, you are giving up everything to go with me, are you sure you want to do that, I mean I will understand if you don't it is a lot," she reminded, telling all her friends that they didn't need to go with her, didn't need to give up everything just for her.
"Moron, of course were going with you, your our friend, our sister, our princess, you are what holds this group together, and whose going to take care of you, gee's did you ever think of that" Raye questioned laughing at the look on Serena's face.
"Yeah, I mean why would we not go with you, its not like our families care what happens to us, I hardly ever see my mom, and Mina's parents are never home there always out of the country on business, no offence Mina," Amy exclaimed in a rush, trying to explain where all the scouts were coming from.
"None taken," Mina giggled, "Like you were only stating the truth."
"Now that, that is covered can we please call Pluto Koneko," Amara interrupted, "I'd like to know if we can even go first, before I start to consider what were going to do when we get there and what we have at stake if we leave."
"Yeah, Yeah I'm getting to it, hold on," Serena sighed, just now thinking that it might not be possible for all her friends to go with her, Pluto had said that she could go, and the reason that, that's possible is because she was born there and had to be brought to this time. It might not be possible for her friends to come along, and that mad her dread calling Pluto, cause what if she was going to be left all alone.
Serena pulled out her tiny, pink, hand held communicator and pushed the dark evergreen button, connecting her to Pluto, "Sorry Puu but we need to talk to you again, we have more questions for you, and there ones only you can answer." She exclaimed into the microphone on the left side, and waited for a response, but none came, until. . .
"I figured that this would happen," a voice sounded from the door way of the small shrine room, "I mean you cant have just one question there is always more to follow, I've pretty much been here for most of you discussion, but none of you noticed so I'll just tell you this. The gods say not to worry that everything is going to work out the way it is suppose to, I don't know if that is good or bad but all they would say is not to worry that you all will be alright in the end," Pluto rambled, "About the going back, now all of you can go but there is one set back to that, if you ever want to come back to this time, you cant, so you must be absolutely sure that this is what you want to do, and the other bad thing is Darien has to come to, he has a destiny there that he also must fulfill," Pluto continued.
"What, he has to come with us, how do we know he won't try to kill us like he killed the Tsukinos, how do we know that he won't go after Serena's brother when we get there, have the god's even taken that into consideration, he is the enemy," Lita screamed, voicing all the points the scouts had running through there heads.
"Yes, I know this, but it is the way it has to be, if he were to not go along everything would be altered, you'd be putting your friends and families lives in danger if he were to stay. You would be putting the safety of the future at jeopardy," Pluto warned, trying to explain the graveness of there decision, and the consequences it will have.
"Okay, so Darien goes with us, fine, but if he even looks at one of us wrong he's dead and if he tries to touch her, I will not be responsible for what happens," Amara swore, looking at that moment like she might just kill him for breathing the same air.
"Amara you can't kill him, none of you can, that would put you at his level," Serena whispered, "I have thought of killing him or hurting him in some way too, but I will not follow through with it though, you want to know why, its cause I don't want to have anything in common with him, he is a creep and not worthy to clean the bottoms of my shoes with his tongue, he killed three innocent people because I broke up with him, so yeah I would like to see him suffer, but he will not be dieing by my hand or any of my scouts, do you all understand, you treat him like we use to, as if we don't know what he did, I don't want him to know that we know, does everyone understand me," she questioned?
A chorus of yes's and yeah's followed the question, and that's when the quietest person in there group finally spoke, "We get it Serenity- mama, but what are we going to do now that we know we can go back," Hotaru whispered, looking at Serena for all the answers, like only a child could.
"Well, I cant just ask you all to just give up everything to come with me so I'm giving you the chance to tell me if you want to go or not, I don't want you to think it was a mistake once we get there or regret it in the future, I don't want you to resent me for bringing you along, I don't want you to blame me, so, are you coming with me or are you not," she questioned the now silent room, you could here a pin drop in the small room, while the scouts thought, when they considered all that was at stake, what they were going to loose if they went with there princess and what they would miss out on if they didn't go with her, how they might feel to see there princess disappear from there lives forever, there sister, and best friend, they thought about there fiends and family that they would be leaving and the new friends that they would meet if they went, there chances at a reasonably normal life. It was decided in a reasonably sort amount of time what had to be done. They seemed to all have the same thing running through there minds.
"Where ever you go, I will follow, you are my little Koneko," Amara stated casually, in a mater of fact way that was only hers.
"Where ever Amara goes I go, and that I have to be there to protect you," Michelle said with a laugh, getting a few chuckles out of the scouts.
"You're my Serenity-mama, I can't leave you, I need to keep you safe just like the rest if the scouts, and who would take care of me if you all left," Hotaru said a small pout gracing her delicate, innocent features.
"I've been with you from the beginning, there is no way I'm going to get out now, I'm in this until the end, I'm not going to let you go through this without me," Amy screech, in a very un Amy like way, " Any way its not like there's a benefit fro me to stay here, I almost never see my mother and I haven't seen my father since I was 5, so there isn't any good reason for me to stay when I have to go to fulfill a duty to protect something that is important, My Princess."
"My father doesn't give a flying fudge winkey about me, my grandfather is getting older and doesn't have that much time left, and when he goes Chad can take it over when that does happen, or grandpa gets to old to handle things, it will give Chad something good to do with his time, and he seems to really love it here, if I didn't go I would miss you all to much, before you came into my life I had no friends, and people were a little afraid of me I think, and now I have friends and people actually talk to me, I cant give you friendship up I think that I might go insane if I ever lost it, so there's really no other choice then to go with you," Raye cried, even thinking about loosing that friendship made her want to cry.
"Same with me, everyone was afraid of me because of rumors and because I was stronger and a fighter, I was different and that scared the crap out of them, but not you, you just came up to me and started talking like it was an everyday occurrence, it was as if you didn't see the tough exterior but what kind of friend I could be, it didn't stop you from anything, you even had the gale to ask for some of my lunch cause you had forgotten yours in you everyday rush for school," Lita laughed, " So girl there is no way I'm going to let you go with out me, and not just that I think you might miss my cooking way to much." She smiled, causing everyone to laugh lightening the mood slightly.
"Chica, babe, there is no freaking way I'm going to leave you to all the guys and the shopping, sigh, mmm, nope cant miss out on the shopping and the guys, your like a sister to me, you all are, I wouldn't be me if I didn't have you all around, and what would I do in my spare time read books, come on, and with parents like mine who don't give a rat's behind what happens to there only child, of course I'm going to follow you in this grand adventure," Mina claimed, embracing Serena in a tight hug.
"You know me Serenity- Hime, I go were ever you go, I follow your order, I know the consequences better than anyone, I know what's going to happen and I know how most of the things are going to end up now that the gods finally figured it out, and before you ask no I cannot tell you any of it you must go on and find out for your self," she laughed, "I will always be here to look out for you and protect you in everything that you do, but I fell that I must remind you that you may not come back, none of us can and that includes me, and we also have to still tell Darien what is going on and how he is involved we not all of what he is involved in but why he must come along," she finished.
"We know that we cant come back and that we have to tell Darien, and along those same lines I think that it is time that we tell everyone that is important to us our secret, that also includes our families, we can also tell them that we are going to leave at the same time, and justify our reasoning if necessary," Serena stated, "I think it would be a good idea to make a list of the people we need to invite."
"Why don't we go down the line, and find out who we think is important to us to invite, I'll write down who it is and who they are inviting," Amy said introducing her idea.
"Okay, why don't I start and we'll go around the circle," Serena commented, "I don't have family to invite so I'm going to say Molly, Andrew, and Darien," she said in a slightly bitter tone.
"My mom, if she's not to busy working at the hospital," Amy decided as she wrote down the name, on the paper stationed in her lap.
"My mom and dad, if they are still in town," Mina quipped.
"My friend Ken, I don't have family to invite either," Lita whispered, saddened by the topic of family, much like Serena her parents were taken from her.
"My grandpa and Chad, but there already here so that's an easy task," Raye mused.
"Okay so we have. . .
Serena: Andrew, Darien, and Molly
Amy (Me): Mother
Mina: Mother and Father
Lita: Ken
Raye: Grandpa and Chad
. . . is that all the people we need to invite," she questioned, taking a second look at the list she had just made.
"Yep," Mina said, popping the 'P'.
"I think that is everyone, so why don't you all start to make your phone calls, and have them meet at the temple at about 5 - 5:30, to night," Pluto ordered.
With that it all began, the scouts began to organize a meeting that was going to change there lives. . . Forever.
Any who . . . on with the story that I have failed to update. Like I promised I would. I'm kinda blocked in the area of writing right know so it might take me a while with chapter 7.
Chapter 6: What's and How's
Serena walked into the main room of the shrine, and shivered, she knew at that moment that what ever it was that this man had to tell her wasn't going to be all hugs and puppies, it had to be bad.

"Are you Serena Tsukino," He questioned in quiet depressed tone.

"Miss I'm sorry you have to here this kind of bad news so early in the morning but it couldn't be helped," The police officer stated, "I regret to inform you that Kenneth, Irene, and Samuel Tsukino were killed in a House fire that started some time late last night or early this morning, we were called to the seen at 3:30 this morning after the fire had been put out.

"I have one question for you," Raye asked continuing when he nodded, "how did the fire start?"
"It is speculated that it started with a gas leak and a lit candle, kind of like a fire ball, but we are not sure," He exclaimed, *No use worrying the girl, its only speculation that it was arcsine, and there is no one who might have done it.*
*He is so lying, there is something else he's not telling us, something that could possibly be extremely important.* Raye said o her self, *I'll have to use the sacred fire*
"Thank you officer, we can take it from here, we will get everything together for her, thank you for telling us" Amy reassured, walking the officer to the door.
When Amy was sure he was gone she closed the door, and turned back towards the room the scouts occupied.
"I don't think that officer was telling us everything, actually I know he wasn't telling us everything, I don't buy his story on how the fire started, if you asked me I'd say that it was arcsine." Raye shouted, slightly irritated with the officer for leaving things out.
"Raye girl calm down why don't you go find out what actually happened with the sacred fire," Lita prompted, trying to dissipate her friend's anger, knowing it wasn't going to help.

"Ya'll wont need to wait long, I'm back and if Serena's think of the same person as I just saw she is more than right, and I know the reason behind his madness, so Serena tell them, then I'll explain," Raye prompted.
"Well, ya know since we all cant read minds, its imperative that you tell us, even if it is just speculation," Amy snapped, slightly annoyed with all the waiting.
"Darien," Serena mused, still trying to come to grips with it even being possible, *I think I know why he did it but still, how I thought we were at least friends, I know we broke up but . . . *
WHAT'S, and HOW'S echoed throughout the small shrine room, while Serena sat oblivious to the state of the people around her. Raye gave a confirming nod to her when she was pulled from her thoughts by the confused and angry scouts.
"I'll kill the bastard," Luna screamed flexing her claws to make them look bigger and more harmful.
"No Luna, that won't be necessary," Serena chuckled lightly with a slightly hunting tone.
Grudgingly Luna calmed slightly still muttering words like kill, bastard, moron, and such. Serena noticing her anger pulled her into her lamp and started to stroke her black coat like a child with any other animal. They were both seeking comfort from one another, yes Luna may be just a cat but she loved the Tsukino's just as much as Serena.
"What do you mean Darien did it, Why would he want to, your parents didn't do anything to him," Mina asked confused as only a blonde could be.
"I mean, Darien set my house on fire killing my family, which I think he really didn't mean to do, I think it was a failed attempted on my life. He didn't really think though, if he would have been throe and checked everything out, like "hey maybe she's at her friends house' kind of thing then maybe my family wouldn't be ashes," she whispered tears starting to fall down her pale milk white cheeks.
"Why would he want you dead, I mean yeah you broke up, so, I mean like grow up," Mina went on, still slightly confused about the whole thing.
"Revenge," Raye broke in, staring at Serena waiting to see her reaction to this new development.
"That's what I thought to," Amara agreed, "I just don't know what he needed revenge for," she questioned.
"He's angry at me for braking up with him and I think he is a little mentally unstable," Serena explained with a slightly laughing tone, "Other than that I don't know why."
"No offence Sere but you're his only way to the throne of Crystal Tokyo, and with you leaving he sees his only chance of ruling flying out the window," Raye offered as her explanation to the whole thing, "I mean wouldn't you kinda go a little psychotic if you saw your safety cushion for a comfy, and pampered future walk out your front door," she questioned.

"I think I'm going to go back, to my brother," Serena whispered, waiting for the obvious reaction the scouts were going to have, * 1 . . . 2 . . . . 3 . . . . *
"WHAT, WHY"
"I don't have any family left here; I don't even have family here to hold a memorial for my parents and brother, I want to see my real family, I need to see Treize, now that I have the memories back it hurts to be separated like this, we use to be really close yeah he's older than me but we did everything together he treated me like I wasn't a child like I was the same age as him, I need my brother, and now that I have a reason and the ability to go back I'm going to take the chance, I need to do this, it's important to me, and according to Pluto there isn't really a reason to stay anymore she said most of the bad guys are taken care of, until the dark moon comes, and even that might not happen considering the lake of a relationship between Darien and I," Serena exclaimed in a desperate and sad voice.

"Yeah, Yeah I'm getting to it, hold on," Serena sighed, just now thinking that it might not be possible for all her friends to go with her, Pluto had said that she could go, and the reason that, that's possible is because she was born there and had to be brought to this time. It might not be possible for her friends to come along, and that mad her dread calling Pluto, cause what if she was going to be left all alone.

"Amara you can't kill him, none of you can, that would put you at his level," Serena whispered, "I have thought of killing him or hurting him in some way too, but I will not follow through with it though, you want to know why, its cause I don't want to have anything in common with him, he is a creep and not worthy to clean the bottoms of my shoes with his tongue, he killed three innocent people because I broke up with him, so yeah I would like to see him suffer, but he will not be dieing by my hand or any of my scouts, do you all understand, you treat him like we use to, as if we don't know what he did, I don't want him to know that we know, does everyone understand me," she questioned?
A chorus of yes's and yeah's followed the question, and that's when the quietest person in there group finally spoke, "We get it Serenity- mama, but what are we going to do now that we know we can go back," Hotaru whispered, looking at Serena for all the answers, like only a child could.
"Well, I cant just ask you all to just give up everything to come with me so I'm giving you the chance to tell me if you want to go or not, I don't want you to think it was a mistake once we get there or regret it in the future, I don't want you to resent me for bringing you along, I don't want you to blame me, so, are you coming with me or are you not," she questioned the now silent room, you could here a pin drop in the small room, while the scouts thought, when they considered all that was at stake, what they were going to loose if they went with there princess and what they would miss out on if they didn't go with her, how they might feel to see there princess disappear from there lives forever, there sister, and best friend, they thought about there fiends and family that they would be leaving and the new friends that they would meet if they went, there chances at a reasonably normal life. It was decided in a reasonably sort amount of time what had to be done. They seemed to all have the same thing running through there minds.
"Where ever you go, I will follow, you are my little Koneko," Amara stated casually, in a mater of fact way that was only hers.
"Where ever Amara goes I go, and that I have to be there to protect you," Michelle said with a laugh, getting a few chuckles out of the scouts.
"You're my Serenity-mama, I can't leave you, I need to keep you safe just like the rest if the scouts, and who would take care of me if you all left," Hotaru said a small pout gracing her delicate, innocent features.
"I've been with you from the beginning, there is no way I'm going to get out now, I'm in this until the end, I'm not going to let you go through this without me," Amy screech, in a very un Amy like way, " Any way its not like there's a benefit fro me to stay here, I almost never see my mother and I haven't seen my father since I was 5, so there isn't any good reason for me to stay when I have to go to fulfill a duty to protect something that is important, My Princess."
"My father doesn't give a flying fudge winkey about me, my grandfather is getting older and doesn't have that much time left, and when he goes Chad can take it over when that does happen, or grandpa gets to old to handle things, it will give Chad something good to do with his time, and he seems to really love it here, if I didn't go I would miss you all to much, before you came into my life I had no friends, and people were a little afraid of me I think, and now I have friends and people actually talk to me, I cant give you friendship up I think that I might go insane if I ever lost it, so there's really no other choice then to go with you," Raye cried, even thinking about loosing that friendship made her want to cry.
"Same with me, everyone was afraid of me because of rumors and because I was stronger and a fighter, I was different and that scared the crap out of them, but not you, you just came up to me and started talking like it was an everyday occurrence, it was as if you didn't see the tough exterior but what kind of friend I could be, it didn't stop you from anything, you even had the gale to ask for some of my lunch cause you had forgotten yours in you everyday rush for school," Lita laughed, " So girl there is no way I'm going to let you go with out me, and not just that I think you might miss my cooking way to much." She smiled, causing everyone to laugh lightening the mood slightly.
"Chica, babe, there is no freaking way I'm going to leave you to all the guys and the shopping, sigh, mmm, nope cant miss out on the shopping and the guys, your like a sister to me, you all are, I wouldn't be me if I didn't have you all around, and what would I do in my spare time read books, come on, and with parents like mine who don't give a rat's behind what happens to there only child, of course I'm going to follow you in this grand adventure," Mina claimed, embracing Serena in a tight hug.
"You know me Serenity- Hime, I go were ever you go, I follow your order, I know the consequences better than anyone, I know what's going to happen and I know how most of the things are going to end up now that the gods finally figured it out, and before you ask no I cannot tell you any of it you must go on and find out for your self," she laughed, "I will always be here to look out for you and protect you in everything that you do, but I fell that I must remind you that you may not come back, none of us can and that includes me, and we also have to still tell Darien what is going on and how he is involved we not all of what he is involved in but why he must come along," she finished.
"We know that we cant come back and that we have to tell Darien, and along those same lines I think that it is time that we tell everyone that is important to us our secret, that also includes our families, we can also tell them that we are going to leave at the same time, and justify our reasoning if necessary," Serena stated, "I think it would be a good idea to make a list of the people we need to invite."
"Why don't we go down the line, and find out who we think is important to us to invite, I'll write down who it is and who they are inviting," Amy said introducing her idea.
"Okay, why don't I start and we'll go around the circle," Serena commented, "I don't have family to invite so I'm going to say Molly, Andrew, and Darien," she said in a slightly bitter tone.
"My mom, if she's not to busy working at the hospital," Amy decided as she wrote down the name, on the paper stationed in her lap.
"My mom and dad, if they are still in town," Mina quipped.
"My friend Ken, I don't have family to invite either," Lita whispered, saddened by the topic of family, much like Serena her parents were taken from her.
"My grandpa and Chad, but there already here so that's an easy task," Raye mused.
"Okay so we have. . .
Serena: Andrew, Darien, and Molly
Amy (Me): Mother
Mina: Mother and Father
Lita: Ken
Raye: Grandpa and Chad
. . . is that all the people we need to invite," she questioned, taking a second look at the list she had just made.
"Yep," Mina said, popping the 'P'.
"I think that is everyone, so why don't you all start to make your phone calls, and have them meet at the temple at about 5 - 5:30, to night," Pluto ordered.
With that it all began, the scouts began to organize a meeting that was going to change there lives. . . Forever.
