This is my first Sailor Moon fanfic story. For some strange reason, I always thought that Serena and Darien was not a good match, so I wrote this story. Be warned that there is NON-TRADITIONAL SEXUAL ACTIVITY in this story and that I would NOT let my 10 year-old nephew-to-be read this. You have been warned. If you like it, drop me a line. My e-mail address is: TeenBride@aol.com +++ FOR THE LOVE OF RAYE +++ Another rainy day in Tokyo. People running for cover, a few children running in the rain, jumping in puddles. In an alley, static energy forms, glows, and expands into a human shape. Just as quickly a man appears, staggering to to change of environment. "Wet," he thought as his vision cleared. "I hate travel like this..." He looked around, trying to understand where he was. "Children? Playing??" ran through his mind as he heard the laughter from the distance. He straightened his tie and walked toward the street. "How did we ever get used to these things?" Raye awaoke with a start. Looking around she saw no one. "Must be thunder," she thought. "I have to talk to Lida about this." as she rolled over and fell back to sleep. As he walked down the street, he mused "Looks so different now. No solar panels anywhere, and what were they called? Aerials?" His mind wandered, and he hit a street sign. "OW!' as he rubbed his head, "that hurt..." He reached in his pocket and pulled out the map his father drew. "Remember," his father said, "your mother's life depends on this. If it's any help, I could never say no to her, either. The important thing is to get it and get back here. The clock is running here as well as there." "And ther I am," he muttered as he stood before the entry to the temple. He glanced and saw two ravens roosting on the arch. Both of looked down upon him, a gaze in their eyes. As if they knew him, but they never met him before. "Phobos! Deimos! Come here," he shouted as he held out his arm. They flew down and rested on him arm, anxiously at first, when the stranger said, "I missed you both. Been so lon..," he said before he caught himself. "Sorry, you both must really be confused," as he took out some grain he kept in his pocket and fed them." He sighted the Temple's mailbox and dropped the envelope he had prepared. He then flexed his arm. The two ravens rose into the air. "Goodbye," he shouted to them as left. Now I saw a motel about two blocks from here... Five miutes later Raye awaoke from her sleep. Yawning she thought, "I hate Mondays." She got up and follwed he usual routine as preiestess. After a light breakfast, she made her way down the path to get the mail, and saw a red envelope. Curious, she flipped it over and saw her name on it. No stamp and no address. Someone dropped this off. She ripped it opened with her fingernail and pulled out a card. Nothing else there. Pulled the card to her eyes and read a hand-written note: Miss Hino: I have travelled a long way. I seek an audience with you tommorrow. I will be at your gate at 4:00 Tuesday afternoon. It is of the utmost importance." Denz Beside the writing was, in red, the sign of Mars. "Oh no," she thought, "That's all I need. Someone from the Negaverse". She glanced up as Deimos flew down to her. Strange, if someone from the Negaverse was here, they would have made a ruckus. She turned and walked back toward the temple. "Well, whoever it is, I've got over a day to find out what's going on. I'll bring it up when the others get here," she thought as she glanced won at her watch. "An hour. I better get ready..." "So has ayone ever heard of this Denz?" Raye asked. Serena looked around. Mina and Lita looked at each other. Amy opened her computer and ran the name through her database. "Nothing," Amy said as she closed it. Serena shook her head. Mina and Lita replied "No" almost in unison. "What did the flames say?" asked Amy, thinking they might have help. "Nothing. Every time I ask, I only see my face in the flames." "I don't know what to do. He will be back tomorrow, and I wish I knew more about him. He MUST be from the Negaverse. No one else knows that I'm Sailor Mars!" "If he knows that," said Mina, "and yet he still ASKED to see you, not demanded, then I don't think he's looking for a fight. Maybe the sign on the card is coincidence?" Amy spoke up. "Let me see that card," she said as she opened her computer again. Lita handed her the card and she eyed it closely. "There's something about this that's not right," she said as she scanned it. "Raye, this card is not pade of paper or any organic material. It's some sort of combination of plastic and polymer. I have no idea how it was made or where. Also, the ink he wrote with isn't ink...my computer cannot identify what it is made of. Same for the symbol." Raye started looking tired. "This is getting nowhere. At least we know what it isn't. WIll all of you be here when he arrives tomorrow?" All four nodded. "OK then, we better have a plan..." At the hotel, Denz tried to sleep but couldn't. He glanced at his watch, then opened the curtain and gazed at the darkness. Time travel was never easy on one's body, and this trip was worse. Looking at the stars, he mused, "So beautiful. And yet so dangerous." He closed the curtain and turned on the television and flipped channel to channel. He paused when he got to a channel thaty wasn't right. Wavy colors but the sound garbled. He reached into his coat pocket and took out a little blue box and pressed several buttons. The picture cleared and showed a man and a woman having sex. "That stuff gets everywhere," he said as he sat down on the bed to watch the show. "Yeah," he thought, "it's going to be difficult, at best, to do this to her. But if I don't she dies." Sighing, he turned the set off and went back to bed... At 3:00 in the afternoon, Denz woke up. "Damn," he thoght, "an hour to get ready." He showered, dressed, and after he was sure he hadn't left anything in the room, pulled the door closed behind him. Passing the clerk in the lobby, he handed him the keys. "Thanks for staying. Come by again!" the clerk said as Denz left and started towards the temple. Ten minutes later he arrived at the gate. Deimos flew down and rested on his shoulder. "How did you do that?" shouted Raye, walking down the path to him. He turned "They never go to strangers," she said as Phobos flew over to her and rested on her hair. He lookead at her eyes--those eyes he had seen so many times--and quickly remembered his reasons for coming here. "Raye Hino?", he asked. "Yes. You're early." "I'm sorry about that. My body is still in a different time zone. My name is Denz. I have come her to seek a meditation audience with you." Raye examined him closely. Older man, must be about 40. Looks a little like Darien. Could lose a few pounds though, but the glasses and moustache are a nice touch. Black eyes like mine. "I'm sorry but I don't do meditations with someone I have never met. Why should I agree?" Out of habit he started to tell her. "I am here on," he siad then paused. She'll think I'm some sort of, what did they call them, whacko? If not the truth, a close facsimle. "A mission of mercy." "Your evading my question. I want the truth", her voice getting louder, "NOW!" Denz backed up in reflex. "You won't believe me." Raye look around, as if ahe thought she was in a trap. No one else here. She looked at Denz. He looked scared. "Are you fron the Negaverse?", she asked "No. I'm from,", he paused, "the future." Raye gasped. "That's deep. I don't suppose you could elaborate?" "Can we talk in private? It's rather cool out here." "OK then, follow me." They walked towards the temple, Raye leading the way. At the door he ran ahead of her and opened it. "Manners," she thought, "how quaint." Once inside she lead him by the great fire, to see its reaction. Nothing. "Let's sit here and consult the fire," she said. Denz stopped and sat behind her. "God, I don't want to do this," he prayed, "but I have to." Raye started, "O Powerful Flame, show me the truth abou.." In a second Denz jumped her and knocked her down. She rolled and shook off the inital shock. "I KNEW IT!" she screamed. "I don't know what you want but your sure not getting away with it! She pulled out her transformation stick. "JUPITER POWER!!" The room lit up as rings of fire covered her. In a flash she changed and said "I AM SAILOR MARS!" Denz sighed, "Yeah...your point being...?" Mars high kicked to knock him down, but Denz turned and quickly avoided the blow. Mars then grabbed his hand...and couldn't throw him! In that split second, he grabbed he shoulder and held. No matter how hard she pulled, she couldn't get the leverage to throw him. "Your good. how do you avoid my attacks?" she screamed. "I know all your moves. I had the best sensei," Denz said. "I better get this over with," he thought as he threw his fist at her and blew red dust in her face. "Please forgive me." she heard him say before she passed out. He grabbed her before she hit the floor. "Your heavier then you said you were," said Denz as her carried her into the next room. Turned out to be her bedroom. "Finally, something going right," he thought, as he laid her on the bed. He stopped. "You have to do this," he remembered. He lifted her red skirt and pulled her panties down. He reached in his pocket and pulled out a small dildo, about 4 inches in length. Long enough to get what he needed but not long enough to really hurt her. He put knob of it in his mouth, and gently he lifted her legs and spread her womanhood. "So beautiful," he thought. He pushed to business end into her and started masterbating her with it. She sighed and semi-conciously pulling her legs up. He held them still and worked the dildo faster. He could feel her body tensing up. "A little more," he thought, "and it'll all be over. Please hurry before I lose my lunch." Mars jerked and screamed herself into conciousness. Her mind couldn't under- stand where all this pleasure came from. She climaxed, squirting all over the dildo. "Thank God," he mumbled as he set her down gently. He reached in his pocket and took out along clear case, flipped the end open, and dropped the dildo inside. He closed the case, stood up, and covered Mars up with a blanket. "Good bye," he sighed as he gazed upon her. He reached into his pocket and removed the blue box. He started out and stopped by the flame. "WHERE'S RAYE?" shouted Mercury. Denz bloted back into Raye's room. FOLLOW HIM!" yelled Jupiter, with Venus and Sailor Moon entering the room. "You're surrounded, Megatrash," Sailor Moon said. "Surrender, or in the name of the moon I will punish you!" "Not good. This is not good," Denz thought as poised, ready to strike, "Now I don't have a choice." "I surrender!" he said as he raised his hands. "Watch him, it may be a trick," Mena said. "VENUS LOVE CHAIN! ENTRAP!!" Heart-shape links encircled Denz without resistance. He was trapped and he knew it. The Sailor Scouts didn't know that he didn't have the heart to fight them all. "Mars, wake up," whispered Jupiter. Mars slowly stirred. Jupiter pulled the blanket off her and gasped at what she saw. Turning toward Denz she screamed "YOU BASTARD! I'LL KILL YOU RIGHT NOW!" "STOP IT!" Sailor Moon yelled, jumping between Jupiter and Denz. "He's our prisoner. We'll handle this the right way." Mars awoke from the cold and the yelling. "What's going on? Why is it..." "YYYEEEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" - Ten minutes later Serena, Mina, and Lita were sitting by the Great Fire. Denz was still tied up, keeping his mouth shut. Amy came through the doorway, looking at her computer. "She's resting. I gave her some Demoral I had left to calm her down." Everyone nodded, with Mina noticing that Denz had nodded too. "I examined her, and yes, there was vaginal penetraion, but no other DNA is there. No saliva, no semen, no lubricating agent, nothing." All eyes turned to Denz. He could see the hate in Lita's and Serena's, the anger in Serena's, and the curiosity in Amy's. Amy continued, "I don't think he used his," she blushed for a moment before continuing, "penis at all." Lita got up and slowly, angrily walked towards Denz. She got in his face and said something the others couldn't hear. Serena tapped her shoulder. "Lita, sit down." Slowly Lita truned away. She looked like she would kill him if she had the chance. "OK Mister," Amy said in a tone that shocked Lita, "I want answers." Denz cleared his throat. "You wouldn't believe me." "Try me," Amy replied. "I'm here to save my mother's life." "How? By raping Raye?" "I needed a high-quality DNA sample." Serena looked confused. Rita looked upset. And Mina, well, he was lucky she wasn't Sailor V anymore. Amy sighed, "Then why didn't you just ask her?" Denz replied, "She ordered me to get the sample. I didn't have time for a courtship. I don't have much time left." Amy was getting angry. "Look I want answers." "So do I", said Raye, satggering out of the room. "Raye, you should be out like a light." Amy said as she ran to her. "Whatever you gave me made me sick. I fell awful." "You must be allergic to Demoral. Sorry." "I want to speak to him." "Raye, your in no condition..." But Raye ignored her. Staggering at first, she sat in front of Denz. "Why did you do this to me?" "It was..." "Answer me." "You..." "ANSWER ME!" Raye screamed, She raised her hand as if to hit him. "YOU TOLD ME TOO!!!" Silence. Complete silence. The only sound was the crackling of the fire. "I had too," cried Denz, tears falling from his eyes, "You're my mother." Raye was shocked. She just sat there. Seconds turned to minutes. After 10 minutes of silence she said, "Let him go." "Raye?", aske Serena "Let him go." Venus concentrated and the chains dissolved into nothingness. Denz streched out slowly and sighed. "Thank you." "I have to know," said Raye. Denz sat back down, and looked at Raye, but explained loud enough to all of them. "I was born, or rather will be born, six months from now." "That's not possible," Raye mumbled. "Im 41 years old. I know my birthdate." "So you ARE from the future!" Amy said. "Yes, but not from THIS future." "Huh? What?" the others asked. Denz reached in his pocket and slowly pulled out the blue box. "This is a Tempral-Dimentional Transporter. In my world, Darien did not marry Serena." Raye's eyes flared. "He married me...didn't he?" Denz looked in her eyes. "Yes, Darien is my father." Serena gasped, "How?" Denz continued. "In my world, my mother was able to, ahem, convince Darien when they were trapped in an elevator after an earthquake. This was shortly after your battle with the Wierd Sisters." Mina spoke up, "But that doesn't explain why you..." Denz stopped her by saying, "I was just getting to that." He looked lovingly at Raye, the love of a son to his mother, "in that battle you were sliced up. The cuts healed, but a virus infected you and laid dormant for 41 years. During that time you married Darien, concieved me and my sisters, and lived out your life as a Sailor Scout. You told me many times of the adventures you had with Aunts Serena, Amy, Lita, and Mina." Raye asked, "Is Darien still alive?" "In my world, yes. He sent me because you would recognize him if he came to get the sample." Raye smiled. It's nice to know that somewhere, someplace, I found happiness. she thought. Denz continued, "The virus revived itself 6 months ago, slowly destrying your DNA at the micro-atomic level. Our doctors managed to slow it down, then isolated it, but not before the damage was done. I had to get a DNA sample from you so the medcoms could re-write my mother's back to normal." "Why didn't you just go back in time and stay in your own demention?" Amy asked. Denz replied "This unit couldn't go back that far. I had to jump dementions." With that said, a beep sounded from Denz's blue box. "I have to go," he said. "I know." Denz stood up and said to the others, "Please try to understand. I love my mother very much. I couldn't just let her die." The boxed beep faster. "Goodbye, Mom," he said as the temporal field enveloped him, "I love you." In a flash, he was gone. Serena stood up. "Raye..." Raye turned and smiled. "I'm OK. This will take a little getting used to. I've always wanted to have a son, and now I know somewhere I will have the man I once wanted. Jealous, Serena?" Serena smiled and giggled. She knew everything was going to be OK. === EPILOGUE === Two nights had passed. Raye was soundly sleeping in her bed when a bright light flared in the room. "WHAT?" she thought when the light formed into Denz. Raye turned on the lamp on the bedstand. "Mom...Raye?" she heard him say. "Yes, what's wrong? You look so sad." Then she understood his sad eyes. "Oh, no..." "She died yesterday. The DNA restoration didn't work. She was concious till the end. Father and I told her about my coming here. She understood and wanted you to have this, with her thanks." He handed her a picture, then the dimensional field glowed and took Denz home. Raye closed her eyes and wept. In a few minutes she dried her eyes and looked at the framed picture in her hands. It was her and Darien, with a young Denz, she guessed about 6 years old, and they were behind a stroller with two infants, everyone smiling happily.
