Part 19
Serena blushed as Raye asked her question after question. "Duo, this is one of my best friends, Raye."
"Nice to meet you, Raye," Duo greeted.
Serena grinned then her eyes turned serious, "What now, Father?"
"Now we have to stop Beryl and Darien before they release the Negaforce." Treize gently suggested.
Serena nodded eyes thoughtful, "I see but I don't want the Senshi hurt... I'm going with them."
"Princess!" Raye snapped.
Serena held her brooch into the air, "Moon Crystal Power!" Sailor Moon stood and Raye stared at her startled. "
"You're a Sailor Senshi?"
Serena nodded, "I'm Sailor Moon."
Raye scowled, "You're not going with us it's too dangerous!"
Serena crossed her arms over her red bow and scowled, "I am too! I can fight can't I, Duo?"
Duo nodded. "She can fight but she needs to learn real fighting skills."
"Real fighting skills?" Serena asked with a scowl.
Duo nodded, "You heard Heero. They know all your attacks you need something more powerful or at least learn hand to hand."
"Will you teach me, Duo?"
"... I could."
"Really?"
"But we really don't have time."
"Please? I'm a fast learner I promise."
"... fine I'll teach you but you can't go with them when they scout the place out. You'll stay here with me and learn."
"But, Duo!"
"No buts, Serena. Is it a deal?"
"Alright... I guess so. But after I learn I can go?"
"Yes."
"Yeah! Thanks, Duo!" She threw her arms around him and hugged him kissing his cheek.
Raye frowned, "I really don't think it's wise she go with us."
Duo shrugged, "If she knows how to fight I think it would be alright. I wonder if I could get a hold of Heero..."
"Who's Heero?"
"A gundam pilot I know."
"Gundam?"
"Yeah, but you can't really tell many people about that. It's supposed to be a secret."
"And yet you're telling us?"
"Well you guys are Serena's friends and protectors I trust ya."
Serena grinned at him, "Thanks, Duo,"
Duo smiled down at her, "Your Senshi are going to go check out what we're up against. While they're gone you and I are going to train to fight not just with your magic powers."
Serena nodded slightly, "Alright, sounds like a plan to me." She grinned up at him before turning to her Senshi. "Guys, be careful. Don't do anything stupid and if it looks dangerous come back right away," She ordered.
Raye smirked, "No problem. We'll be back before you know it. You two be careful too you never know if they'll come back for her."
Serena crossed her arms over her chest. "I'm not a fragile little doll, Raye. If they come back Duo and I can hold them off until you guys return."
"I could help even if you are a weak female."
Serena turned startled and met the eyes of a scowling Wufei. "It wouldn't be honorable to just leave you to the mercy of them."
"Thanks, Wufei!" Serena smiled brightly at him but he continued to scowl.
Serena giggled and Duo grinned, "Thanks, Wufei we appreciate it. Now you guys get going we'll be fine here."
Treize walked over to the young couple. "I'll go with them, you two stay safe."
Serena nodded, "Yes, Daddy."
Treize smiled at her then walked over to the Senshi who were in a circle. He closed his eyes in concentration and waited. The Senshi gathered around him in a circle chanting and pulling their powers. The group flashed and vanished.
Serena watched them go and turned to Duo. "So what's first?"
Wufei crossed his arms, "First we see what you know. What's your training?"
Serena blinked, "All I have is my tiara and scepter..."
Duo sighed, "This isn't going to be easy Wufei she knows practically nothing."
"Hey!"
"That's what we're going to teach her for. So she won't just be a pretty face but also have some skills."
Serena blushed, "Thanks, Duo."
Duo put his hands behind his head and smirked. "Serena, I want you to attack, Wufei."
"What?"
"Come on weak woman, attack me!"
"... I don't want to hurt you."
She scowled as Wufei began to laugh. "Duo, tell him to stop it isn't funny!"
"Serena, we need you to attack Wufei to gauge how much experience you have in fighting."
"Alright but I really don't want to." Serena ran at Wufei attempting to punch and kick him but he effortlessly deflected her attacks.
"Hit me!"
Serena struggled to punch him but winced as he caught her hand and squeezed. "You have to do better than this." S
erena's eyes narrowed in anger. "I'm trying!"
Duo watched silently his eyes on Serena's movements. 'We have a lot of work to do.'
Serena pulled back sweat shimmering on her face. "This is so hard... I haven't been able to hit him once!"
Duo nodded, "But you're learning from your mistakes right?"
"Yeah... but it's so hard, Duo. All I can do is dodge HIS attacks!"
"But how often have you been hit this last hour?"
"Twice..."
"And how often were you hit the first hour?"
"Every five minutes?" D
uo grinned, "See you're learning. Now you can defend yourself even if you haven't been able to hit him yet. Defense is the first key."
Serena smiled tiredly, "I understand." She emulated Wufei's fighting stance and attacked him again. The Chinese boy effortlessly dodged her fists and then attacked her. Serena smacked away the attack and saw an opening. Her eyes narrowed and she attacked with a renewed effort.
Wufei gasped as her fist plowed into his chest and he smirked. "Good. You finally hit me now do it again and this time don't stare at where you're going to hit."
Serena lowered her head, "I didn't realize..."
"You did good enough though... for a woman."
Serena beamed, "Thanks, Wufei!"
Duo grinned at the two. "She's not that hard to teach is she, Wufei? We've taught her alot in two hours."
Wufei grunted, "Perhaps but she'll have to do better then this to keep up with her friends."
Serena pouted. "I am trying, Wufei."
"Of course you are, woman otherwise you'd never have touched me."
Serena sighed, "Let's try it again then, k?"
Wufei smirked and waited for her attack. Serena emulated his smirk and once again attacked.
Haruka arrived an hour later but the other Senshi weren't present. She watched as a bruised and battered Serena attacked a black-eyed Wufei. "I see you've taught her some things."
Serena looked up startled wiped a sweat stained lock of hair out of her eyes. "Haruka!"
Haruka grinned, "Greetings, Odango. Everything is going alright over there but they've got a greater force then we thought. This is going to be a tough fight, Koneko I'm glad they're teaching you some things."
Serena smirked like Wufei. "Want to spar, Haruka?"
The blonde-haired woman raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure, Koneko? I don't want you to get hurt."
Wufei scoffed, "This woman has been trained by me you won't be able to hurt her."
Serena flushed and turned to Haruka. She dropped into the now familiar fighting pose and waited.
Duo smirked as Haruka and Serena sparred. The older woman hadn't been able to hit his princess once. He was proud of Serena she hadn't lied when she said was a fast learner.
Haruka stepped back a grin on her lips. "This is great." She turned to Wufei. "Thank you for teaching her so well. I won't have to worry about her if she gets into a hand to hand match now."
Wufei crossed his arms over his chest and smirked. "She's no longer a weak woman."
Serena grinned and turned to Wufei startled. "Really, Wufei?"
Wufei nodded once causing the girl to grin in delight. Serena turned to Duo. "Can I go with the others now?"
Duo shook his head, "Not yet. You should use all of this time to train while you wait for them to come back."
Wufei studied her for a moment. "Perhaps she should learn how to pilot a mobile suit."
"A doll?"
Serena blinked, "You want me to play with a doll?" She asked confused.
Wufei scowled at her, "NO! Duo is going to steal you a mobile doll and reprogram it. You'll control it but it will have faster reaction time then a Leo."
"Leo?"
Wufei scowled more. "Forget it."
Duo hopped off the crate he had been using as a seat. "I'll go get her one you keep training her one the hand to hand."
Serena watched as Duo left. "I hope he's careful..."
"Want me to follow him, Princess?"
Serena turned to Haruka and smiled, "Would you?" Haruka nodded and with a smile followed Duo. Serena turned back to Wufei. "Ready to go again?"
