Sara is Nephlite's mum! ____________________________________________________________________________ Queen Serenity was a nervous wreck! Her daughter had been missing for 2 days. "What are we going to do if we don't find Serena?" Serenity asked her husband. "We are going to find her don't you worry!" Edmond reassured. 4 gaurds came barging in through the door of the throne room. "Serenity, Edmond we have some very informative news. It was found that only one person went through the portal. Also the portal went to either Mars or Earth!" the first gaurd spoke. "Really! Has Mars left yet?" Serenity asked. "No m'am" "Then get her here immediately. Bring the rest of my senshi that haven't left along with her. NOW!" Serenity ordered. "Yes m'am!" "See Serenity darling I told you we'd find her soon!" Edmond commented. "I only hope you're right! I only hope your right!"Serenity whispered. "Serenity!" Mars, Venus, Neptune, Jupiter, Saturn and Mercury called. "We were told to come here immediately that it was an emergency. What's wrong?" "Nothing is wrong in fact it's good news! Serena is either on Mars or Earth! We are going to Mars to search for her!" Serenity broke the news. "What happened with Rhianna?" Mercury asked. "She must still be on the moon! None of the portals have been operating since Serena was taken! I'll go and see to her capture now!" and with that King Edmond left the room to go find Rhianna. "Serenity I understand you wish to go to my planet?"Mars querried. "Yes, that is what I intended." "But how are we going to get there? You shut down the Portals. We were only allowed to use the portals when we were leaving. They've been shut down by now! They can't be used for another 80 hours." Mars said. "Ohh that's easily solved. I'll use the Cystal to teleport us." An hour later Queen Serenity was waiting down in the courtyard with her husband. "I'm going to miss you Serenity, are you sure you have to go? Your Senshi can search for our little bunny just as well without you! What if something happens to you on Mars? I can't live without you and Serena!" Edmond pleaded. "Edmond, nothing is going to happen! It's not like I'm going out in the wild unprotected, I have my Senshi and the Martian Gaurds! I'm also taking the crystal. Don't worry about me! Uranus and Pluto will be coming back to the moon soon to help you protect the palace. There's no need to worry. I'm quite safe. I have to go now the others are here! Goodbye!" Serenity said sadly. "Wait!" Edmond called. He went up to Serenity and kissed her. "Goodbye my love!" "Goodbye Edmond!" Queen Serenity went to her Senshi. "Okay everyone stand in a circle around me." The senshi did as they were told. Serenity looked wistfully back at her husband. Edmond watched his love as she stood there staring back at him, her silver hair flowed down in two whispy tails to the ground. The sun which was setting put an orange and gold wash over her white gown and silk skin. He was going to miss her. Who knew how long she could be gone for. Serenity turned away from Edmond, she took the Moon Wand out and summoned the power of the crystal. She shut her eyes tight in focus. She started to glow, only slightly at first, until the light grew so bright that Edmond couldn't look at her anymore. The next time he looked the only thing where Serenity and her Senshi once were was a white rose from Serenity's hair. He walked over and picked up the delicate flower. ____________________________________________________________________________ An 8 year old Serena came running down the stairs giggling with her older brother Jedeite chasing after her. She was getting really tired so she just collapsed on the grass. "Serena!" Jedeite complained. "Why'd ya stop running? It's no fun playing tag when you always stop running!" "But I was tired!" Serena whined. "So what?" "You stop running when you're tired too!" "I do not!" "You do too!" Serena insisted. "DO NOT!" Jedeite yelled back. "Kid's! you shouldn't be arguing! Jed you know better than that, you're 9 years old!" Claire admonished as she came down the stairs. "Yeh Jedeite!" Serena teased. "You too Serena. Your only a year younger." Jedeite stuck his tongue out at Serena and ran away before Serena could do anything. "Awww. Mum!" Serena began complaing. "Enough Serena. Now go play with Jedeite and Nephlite." Serena found her brother and her friend out near the barn. They were with her dad training. "Can I play too?" Serena asked. "No Serena girls can't fight!" Jedeite informed. "So get lost!" "JEDEITE!! Of course you can play sweetie, but where not playing we're training!" He told his daughter. Serena practised her fighting skills every time her brother and Nephlite did and by the time she was 15 she was just as good fighter as her male counterparts. Her mother wasn't to happy about her daughter being a warrior at first but she noticed Serena really enjoyed her talent. There father was so impressed by the three's talent that he decided to take them to tryout to become the Royal Gaurds of Prince Darien. Nephlite had been Serena and Jedeite's friend for years. His father died when he was 3. As he'd grown up with his mum, Jason [*Serena and Jedeite's dad*] had become like another father to him. Now he was going to become a Royal Gaurd. He wished his real father could have been there, he would have been so proud. "Yaaaayyyy!!!!! We're going to become the Royal Gaurds! Yaaayyy!!!!" Serena screeched. "We don't know that for sure. We might not be chosen! Tryouts are for people all over Earth. If you want to become a gaurd you have to act more sensible, especially you!" Jedeite pointed out. "Especially me! What's that supposed to mean?" Serena asked sounding angry. "Well," Jedeite began. "You're a girl, and girls aren't meant to be warriors, and there's never been a Royal Gaurd that was a girl. I don't think there's even been palace gaurd that was a girl!" "Well I'll be the first then, won't I?" Serena said simply and stormed off. She headed down to her favourite spot for thinking, there was a track behind the barn that lead to the woods. Quite far into the forest there was a cave. If you went into the cave there was a little tunnel in the bottom of the first room. The tunnel lead out into a waterfall with a rockpool. Serena looked out across the water. There was a bit of the afternoon sun shining through the canopy. When it hit the water, the rockpool looked like a beautiful giant crystal. Serena loved sitting here, everything was peaceful, much unlike the 'world' where she lived. This was a 'world' of her own. She could make it what ever she wanted to be. She stood up and walked around to the other side of the rockpool. From under the ledge of the rockpool Serena took some bread that she had hidden there and started eating. 'In my world girls can be anything they want to be!' Serena thought.'It's unfair. I'm just as good a fighter as Jedeite and Nephlite. I'd make an even better gaurd. All Jedeite and Nephlite ever want to do is fight. I am also an archer, Jedeite and Nephlite can't even shoot an arrow! They might be stronger than me but strength isn't everything!' It was getting dark so Serena thought she had better get back home before her mother started to worry. The next day she'd have to pack for the 8 day journey to Eldron. The palace was at Eldron and the King decided to have tryouts in the palace courtyard. It would make it alot safer for the Prince and the King to judge! After dinner Serena went up to her room. She sat near the window and looked out over the valley and up at the moon. She loved staring at the moon, she didn't know why. It just felt so familiar. There was a poem that always came to her when she watched the moon, 'The light in the darkness, The angel at my door, The hidden misty sailboat, That carries my dreams ashore, When my thoughts are lost among the waves of darkness, Your flames of light appear to show the way, The softness of your touch just beyond my window, Behind the reach of day.' Nephlite was in his room lying on his bed. He was thinking about his father he wished he had a memory of him. All he new about his father was that he was some important ambassador or something. The only thing about his father's death that he knew was he died going to Jupiter. Apparently their portal was opened midway and all 5 ambassadors and their gaurds died. He wanted to go to Jupiter and find the person who killed his father. That person would pay. Jediete was in his room staring at a candle on his desk. He was just sitting there staring at the flame. He was intrigued by fire, so powerful and destructive, yet so beautiful and alive. How could something so beautiful have so much power? How did fire work? What made it exist? The next morning the three were off to Eldron. Claire was having a hard time believing that they were actually leaving. "Oh my little babies I'm gonna miss you all so much. Come 'ere and give me a hug!" Caire spoke. Serena and Jedeite went over to give their mother a hug, "You too Nephlite your a part of this family too." "What about your poor old dad?" Serena went over and gave Jason a hug while Nephlite and Jedeite shook his hand. Sara, came walking out of the house at just that moment with a big bundle of food. "What about me? You can't leave me out of this!" Jedeite, Serena and Nephlite all went over and gave Sara a hug. "I'll miss you mum!" Nephlite said as he took the food of his mother. About an hour later the three were outside of town and getting close to the woods. "This is so cool! I can't wait to get to Eldron. I've never been there before. What's it like? Is there lots of nice places to go shopping?" Serena asked. "I don't know. None of us have ever been there. How can you be so much like a girl and so much like a boy? One minute you're swinging a sword, the next minute you're swinging a hairbrush!" Jedeite answered confusedly. "You got a problem with that?" Serena said giving Jedeite a threatening look. "Stop arguing already, Come on lets get going." Nephlite said sounding annoyed. ____________________________________________________________________________ King Edmond was in his throne room. He was thinking about his wife who was going to come back soon, actually ant minute now. Unfortunately without his daughter. His wife had gone to Mars looking for their daughter who had been kidnapped almost 14 years ago. Serenity had stayed on Mars until now when Edmond had told her that he had finally found Rhianna and that Serena wasn't on Mars at all. The queen said she would be returning with the new senshi, trained for the princess and that her senshi were going back to rule their planets. The King's thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. "Sir. Serenity has arrived." One of the palace gaurds announced. "Where is she?" "Follow me." The gaurd led the King to a room in the palace. When the gaurd opened the door the King saw his wife resting on a padded chair surrounded by 8 girls who couldn't be more than 15 years old! He noticed she looked tired and worn out, her hair was a mess and she had bags under her eyes! No one had noticed him, or the gaurd enter. Edmond cleared his throat, "Ahhemm." Everyone Immediately turned around, Serenity shot up and hugged Edmond, while the younger senshi curtsied. "That is not needed. You are our friends!" Edmond assured. The blond girl wearing an orange dress came forward, "I am Princess Mina of Venus, the brown haired one in green is Princess Leita of Jupiter, the one in red with black hair is Princess Raye of Mars, the one in blue is Princess Amy of Mercury..." "I'm Princess Alex of Uranus!" The tall one with short blonde hair took over, if she hadn't been wearing a senshi uniform Edmond could have sworn she was a he! "..the one with the green hair is Princess Michelle of Neptune, the one in purple is Princess Hayley of Saturn and the one in black with dark green hair is Princess Susan of Pluto! We are the Princess's royal senshi!" "It is very nice to meet you all. Would you follow me into the throne room we have some serious matters to attend to!" Edmond led the senshi and his wife out of the room and down the hall to the throne room. Later in the throne room the King, Queen and senshi were in a deep discussion, "I have exiled Rhianna to hard labor in the Lunarian Mines. Before she left she said she dumped Serenity on Earth and that there's no chance of finding her anymore. I have dispatched some search parties to go down and find Serena." Edmond informed. "We'll go and help search for her." Venus spoke for all the senshi. "I'll come too!" Serenity commented. "No you won't!" the king and the senshi all said at once. "You are needed here on the moon much more! The people need you. I've barely kept the kingdom together." Edmond spoke. "Besides the senshi are just as capable to find Serena by themselves!" "Alright, Alright. Only on one condition. If you have not found Serena within a year you are return back to the moon!" "We agree." Venus answered. The next day the senshi were ready to leave. They went to the portal room which was working now since the return of the Queen. "Remember you will habe to go to the palace at Eldron. You will be left at a forest near there, sorry it is the closest portal entry I could find. The the King and Queen are expecting you." _____________________________________________________________________________ Serena, Nephlite and Jedeite were being given a quick tour of the palace by the prince. They had been chosen as the Royal Gaurds along with 2 others, Malachite and Zoisite. The prince was not happy, one of his gaurds was a girl! How could this have happened. These were meant to be the best fighters across the lands, and one of them was a girl! He was determined not to give her an easy time hear at the palace. "This on the left is a bathroom for the gaurds, a MALE bathroom. I am so sorry Lady Serena..." "Serena is just fine thanks." Serena said. "As I was saying this is a males bathroom, Lady Serena you will have to use the bathroom for my mother's Ladies in waiting." Serena could feel her temper rising, 'just calm down she told herself don't over react I'm sure he isn't doing it on purpose.' She said to herself, but she could already tell she was not going to like the prince that much.
