"Because Of Love" Janet Jackson

The minute Serena and Duo had returned to his ship, she ran sraight to her room, flinging herself onto the bed, crying into her pillow.

Duo tried to talk to her, but she jumped out of the jeep before he could say anything. She knew who her father was, and he denied her. How cruel could Treize Kushrunada possibly get. This was beyond confusing, how could a sweet and beautiful girl, such as Serena, be his daughter, if not in this life, then in the past.

Duo made up his mind, he was going to find out all about her, he hated to see her cry, she was his friend, and she didn't desereve to be casted away like that. Taking a deep breath, he walked to the ship, slipping his hands into his pockets.

Serena cried uncontrollably until she fell asleep, when she woke up, she sat up, leaning against the wall, folding her arms.

"Serena....." Said a voice, startling her, causing a slight gasp to escape her.

"Duo.....It's only you.....I thought it was....." She stopped in mid sentence, tuning away, realizing she said too much.

"Who?" Duo asked, approching her slowly, and seated himself on her bed.

The Moon light shined through a small window, flickering off her blond hair, illuminating the side of her cheek as she looked at him, uncertainty in her eyes.

"My fiancee." She whispered, bitterness in her voice.

Duo frowned. "Your fiancee?"

She nodded. "It's because of him my Kingdom was destroyed."

"What!" Duo exlcaimed, shock written all over his face.

She closed her eyes, as if it hurt to even look at him. "Yes. He is the cause of all of it."

Duo took both of her hands in his, causing her eyes to fly wide open, making her body tense. "Serena. Tell me everything. I'm your friend. I can see that your hurting, and I can't take it anymore."

Serena stared into his violet eyes, searching them, relaxing, and nodded. "Prince Endymion of Earth was my intended.....I was to marry him once I turned eighteen, but it didn't happen that way....." Her voice trailed off.

"Go on." Duo urged, gentley squezing her hands.

"My Father never trusted the Earth Kingdom, that was why they couldn't join the Silver Millieuim. He forbid it." She paused. "Mother convinced him to think it over, and when I was born, they decided that I would marry Earth's Prince in order to bring peace to both out Kingdoms. Father still didn't like the idea, but he went along with Mother, because she believed the Moon and Earth could live together peacefully. But it never happened....."

Tears formed in her eyes. "My Father died mysteriously when I was only eight years old. It was said that he was poisoned."

Duo took her in his arms, stroking her hair. Unsure of what else to do.

Serena rested her head on his shoulder, allowing her tears to fall. "Since they couldn't find out who did it, nothing could be done....." She sobbed. "There were never any feelings between me and Endymion. He was so egotistical. I could see why Father never liked him....."

Duo wiped a few tears from her cheeks, keeping her in his arms, waiting for her to speak.

"When the Moon was attacked by Queen Baryl, she unleased the Negaforce, and it destroyed everything." She contiuned, her voice a little more calm. "Mother used the Impirium Silver Crystal to seal it away, and it took all her strength. Before she died, she revealed to me that she had sent my Father to this time, to be reborn. With the last amount of energy she had, she sent me here. To find him."

Duo nodded, taking her hand in his, running his fingers lightly over her knuckles.

"Before I came here Endymion told me he was the one who killed my Father. He did it at Baryl's request, because she knew Father was more powerful then Mother, and he could have easily defeated her....." She said in a harsh tone.

"Relax." Duo said, pulling her closer to him, soothing her.

"She sighed, unshed tears forming in her eyes. "Now Father doesn't even remember me. What am I going to do? I have no one else."

"Serena." Duo said, tilting her chin up, so that they made eye contact. "You have me, and I'm not going to let anything happen to you. And we'll find a way to refresh your Daddy's memory, one way or another." He smiled faintly.

Serena returned the smile. "Thank You Duo." She whispered.

"Anytime." He grinned, kissing her cheek.

Trieze moaned in his sleep, clutching his pillow, sweat trickling down the side of his forehead. Then he woke up, faintly gasping.

The dream he had was very unerving, it was of a beautiful woman, with silver white hair. She was smiling at him, and he remebered seeing her stomach big with child.

He sat up, looking at his hand. In his dream, he put that hand on her stomach, feeling a little kick come from it. She seemed so familar, like he knew her. But that was impossible, he had never seen her before in his life.

He got up, and walked over to the window, looking up at the full Moon. It calmed him strangly enough. He held up his hands, looking at both of them.

There was a baby in his dream, a newborn, which he had held, staring at a face that was as lovely as her mother.

Treize shook his head. Impossible. That girl couldn't be his daughter. He had never married, much less had a child. Still, the dream felt more like a memory. He closed his eyes, touching his lips, remembering the sweet kiss he recieved from the woman.

Her face was so full of joy as she looked at him. So full of love. How could he have just imagined a woman as beautiful as her. Dressed in a long white gown.

He sighed, putting a hand on his hip, returning his gaze back to the night sky. A mere dream. She doesn't exist. He told himself.

Except he couldn't forget the Cresent Moon he had seen on both the woman and child's foreheads.
