Love, Destiny and Fate - Part One
By RuneVenus (Angel Wings)
"Princess Serenity, Princess Serenity" Luna gasped as she came running
down the hallway, into Serenity's bedroom.
"Oh Luna? What's wrong?" came the graceful reply to Luna who had now
jumped on the bed and took deep breaths to slow down her heart rate.
"Nothing is the matter your princess but I have some rather exciting news."
"Luna what is it? Tell me please!!! You know how I don't have patience
with such matters." "Alright, Alright Princess, keep your gown on" said the
exhausted cat " Humph! Luna you don't have to get so agitated about it.
And call me Serena, Princess is so formal. Anyway so what's this news
you came running into tell me about? Huh?" Serena started poking Luna for
answers.
"OWW stop that, I'll tell you I'll tell you just stop poking me!"
Serena stopped immediately smiling wryly to herself about how easily Luna
was agitated. "Well Princess, I mean Serena your mother has informed me
that we are going to Earth for King Terrius's brothers wedding. He has
invited you and your Mother and her faithful subjects also. So that means
that all of the royal Court is going." After listening to Luna intently,
Princess Serenity stood up straight and picked up the most surprised cat
and whirled her around and then putting her back down started dancing around
the room with her imaginary partner.
"A wedding, oh how wonderful."Serena's face was as bright as the day.
"I can't wait!! Oh and I bet there will be a huge celebration afterwards
with dancing and best of all I get to visit the Earth again." Serena
stopped from her daydream and asked Luna with a serious expression on
her face" Luna, when was the last time that we went to Earth? The black
cat thought for a moment and replied " I think you were 7 when you last
visited."
"Yes, I remember now, I went with mother. She wanted to talk
some business over with the King and Queen. Something to do with joining
forces against corruption."
"That's right Serena. They wanted to have a strong alliance, so if ever
there came a time in which war would break, the Earth and the Moon would
fight as one."
"Yes and don't forget the other planets as well. Hey Luna I also
remember the first day I met Prince Endymion. He was...ah..ah..13 I think.
Yes he was 13 and he commented on my hair. Oh what did he call me."
Serena thought for a moment and then the expression on her face turned
to pure anger. "MEATBALL HEAD!!" she steamed through her perfect royal ears.
"oohh he made me so angry. How could he insult the royal hair style of
our family, and I was only 7 to. Imagine picking on a poor defenseless
princess! Well I'll tell you one thing Luna. I am not going to let him do
that to me again. Now that I am 15 I will tell him off. Just let him try
and call me MEATBALL Head."
Luna thought. "Serena you were both children, and he didn't
mean to tease you. You and him are much grown up now. He is 21 and you are
15. I don't even think he would even remember. You're getting all angry about
nothing. CALM DOWN. "Luna said exasperatedly.
"Okay okay Luna! We'll see."
******
'Wait for me my princess."
"I love you Serena, never forget that. I will never let anyone harm you.
Remember that my love is for you."
******
Serena woke up abruptly. Warm tears flowing down her cheeks. What was
that dream she had dreamt. Holding her shoulders for warmth she layed back
down on her bed. Her tears still fresh on her face. She tried to remember
the dream. The love that she felt, the love that wanted to scream out and
find the person that she had been dreaming of. She remembered the dark figure
that held her tight, his blue eyes that seemed to gaze into hers. His eyes so
full of love. Only for her, all for her
"It felt... so. right." she managed to say to no one in
particular. I think I am going crazy. What is this am I falling in love
with my sub conscious or something. I'll think about it tomorrow.
Serena started drifting off to sleep. Softly she said " Goodnight...my
prince." Not even knowing who the prince was or even if he was real.
***
"Serena?"
"mmm..Oh Luna did you say something?" Serena was sitting in the garden.
Wild flowers grew all around her. It was a lovely warm summer day. The
fountains close by let the gleaming water flow. There were at least 2 days
until they went to Earth so Luna had given her a break from Serena's
education administer Lady Beryl. Serena was waiting for her friends, the
princesses of the other planets, also her guardians and protectors. The
outer senshi were gone on a diplomatic mission to the next galaxy so they
could not come to the wedding but the inner senshi always stayed with Serena.
"Serena? Serena? MOON TO SERENA!?!?!"
"Er..Luna..I..um..I'm sorry."
"Serena what's the matter?" Luna asked concerned at how the princess had
been acting this morning.
" Luna, I had a really weird dream last night, but I don't seem to
remember the person who was in it. I can only remember 'his' eyes." Serena
drifted off again.
"Nah! don't worry about it Luna. Just a silly dream." Serena said
brightening up. "Okay Serena if you say so."
Luna thought for a moment. A wicked smile crept up on her
face. She hopped onto a pedestal to make sure she was not in a distance of
being clobbered after what she was going to say.
"So Serena, you were thinking about Prince Dimitri! Weren't you!!! I
know you have a silly crush on him. Like all the girls do."
Serena turned bright red. Luna was out of distance to clobber.
"LUNA!!! It was NOT him. Look can we drop it." She sighed remembering
how Prince Dimitri was one of the most popular princes of the Galaxy next to
Prince Endymion.
"SERENA!!!"
"Luna what?" Serena snapped at her for pulling her out of her thoughts again
for the second time.
"I'll drop it Serena but I know you were crying last night because I
heard you. Look Serena you shouldn't let him get you down. He says he likes
you then goes out with another girl because you found out that he wanted the
Moon Kingdom. I know it was him because you said 'Good night my prince.'
Serena was surprised "I did! I..don't..remem...Anyway Luna I don't want
to talk about this anymore and it WASN'T HIM!!!
"Alright, alright I won't say anything. Not another word."
Even though her heart said more, her mind
ceased to explain it any further.
"Hey Serena!"
Serena looked up to see her four faithful friends. She smiled at them as
they were walking towards her.
"Hi guys! So you excited or what about going to earth for the wedding??!!"
"Yeah It is way cool!"Lita exclaimed
"Totally Wild" said Mina
"Actually I think it is going to be a very educational trip. We could
learn the geography of earth while we're there. Yeah it will be fun."
Amy said beaming while everyone just looked at her totally blank with sweat
drops. After that everyone sighed a defeating sigh and then altogether yelled
out "Amy!?!"
A little startled at the reaction she just shrugged her shoulders,
smiled and said "Well that's the brainiac for you." Everyone started
laughing.
"I wish we got to go last time. You were so lucky Sere to meet Prince
Endymion. I hear that he looks even better now than before." Rei sighed
as she was saying it. Everyone agreed except Serena who had scrunched up
her nose at the mention of his name.
"wow Serena! What's wrong it looks like your going to rip someone
apart." Lita said while staring at Serena a little shocked. I was sure
she would be the first one to agree with us about Prince Endymion being a
total hunk.
Everyone stared at Serena questioningly. Serena saw how they were looking at
her and so decided she better give them a answer to the question that they
were thinking of.
"You see..um..I don't like him at all."
"WHAT?!?" the others cried out.
"yes that's right, Serena the one who is always dreaming about guys
doesn't like Prince Endymion one of the cutest Princes of the Silver
Millenium." said Luna, who had been listening to the whole conversation.
"Why?" asked a curious Mina
"it's because when we visited last time I was 7 and he called me
Meatball Head,just because of my hair."
"Oh Serena, I can't believe you don't like him because of that. It was
so long ago. You were only kids, all kids tease each other."said Amy
"That's what I was trying to tell her." Luna still hadn't come down from
the pedestal, which was getting cramped now because there was also a vase
full of lavender flowers.
"Meatball Head ay? I like the sound of that. Boy he's funny and cute.
Who could ask for more?" laughed Rei.
"REI!! Not you too. I knew I shouldn't of told you."
Rei laughed even more."That's okay meatball head I would of found out
sooner or later." Serena stuck her tongue out at her and Rei did the same.
Soon they were in battle. The others just looked on not really being able
to stop it. They thought that if someone who was new to the Moon Kingdom
saw them, they would not suspect Serena and Rei being best friends.
"SERENA! Stop that immediately. This is not Princess like." Luna
screamed. Serena just stuck her tongue at her and quickly stopped not
wanting her mother or Lady Beryl catching her doing such unprincess like
things. Actually her mother wouldn't mind but Lady Beryl was somewhat
different. Serena sometimes felt that Lady Beryl didn't like her very much.
She was so hard on her when it came to her lessons with her.
Luna and her mother had told her that Lady Beryl was being so hard on her
because she wanted Serena to be a well educated princess for she was the
heir to the Moon Kingdom but Serena still had doubts.
"So Serena don't you have a lesson with Lady Beryl today?" Lita asked
almost reading her mind. "Yeah, but I had the morning off because I had
to pack my bags for tomorrow. Oh so much for a princess to do and so little
time."
Serena said melodramitcly."but the cool thing about today is that it is
my last lesson with Lady Beryl. After today I go to the Earth and have Fun!
FUn! FUN!."
"I heard that Lady Beryl is going too. Serena how can you put up with
her. She seems so cruel and mean." Mina mentioned.
"Yeah I guess, but mother has known her since she was 16. When we went
to the Earth last time, mother found her looking after me. I had got lost and
she found me. She did not have any parents because they had died or
something and she needed work. After that mother had found out she was so
smart and elegant for a person who was not royalty and so she asked her
to be my education administer. She has been a friend of my mothers ever since.
She really isn't that bad I guess." Serena still wasn't sure herself about
Beryl. The group just shrugged, and forgot about it but deep down they
felt that Lady Beryl was well...they didn't know but they had a really bad
feeling about her and now that she was kinda acting weird it made them feel
even more uncomfortable.
"Hey guys what's the time.?" Serena looked panicked.
"Around 3 p.m. Why Meatball Head? Rei Asked making the word meatball
head drag so Serena would get annoyed.
"Rei DON"T CALL ME THAT!! Wait a minute did you say 3:00 AHHHHHHH!! I
was supposed to meet Lady Beryl 10 minutes ago in the moon library. She is
going to kill me."{AN=Boy was she right about that one. wink wink nudge nudge}
"LUNA! Why didn't you tell me?" Startled Luna woke up. The sun was so
warm that she had fallen asleep on the pedestal. "Ha..tell you what?" asked
the still sleepy Luna. " oh forget it!" Serena muttered. Then suddenly she
saw a familiar figure walking towards her. She knew she was doomed.
She was a tall girl, with blood red hair. She wore a long black dress
that seemed to compliment her figure. Her face was kinda pale but that made
her green eyes stand out. If she would just smile she would be a stunningly
beautiful creature but she hadn't smiled for ages. Serena only saw her
smile when her mother was around but that was a fake sort of smile. I guess if
your parents had died and not seen there daughter live out her life, you
would be pretty sad too. Lady Beryl made her way up to Serena passing the
inner senshi. Shivers ran up the spines of the senshi as she passed.
"SERENITY YOU ARE LATE!! THIS CAN"T BE TOLERATED."Lady Beryl shouted
out.
"oh..I am really truly sorry Lady Beryl. Please..forgive me, I..guess..I
just forgot about the time and I was so excited about going to Earth
that all other thoughts just flew out of my brain." Serena looked a little
scared. Never before did she see Lady Beryl so mad.
"Princess Serenity that's no excuse." Beryl's temper flared at her. It
made the Senshi very angry. This was PRINCESS SERENITY she was talking to,
not just any old princess, she was their princess. Even Rei was furious
about how Lady Beryl had been talking to her. She was much nicer compared
to her.
"Lady Beryl, that is quite enough, she said she was sorry and it was
partly my fault because I forget to remind her." Luna spoke up. She to was a
little upset at how Lady Beryl was acting. Serena was always late but that
was Serena. If you changed that about her she would not be the Serena we
loved. Screaming at her would not help her at all.
"You are right Lady Luna. I am sorry that I lost my temper Princess, but
please next time try to be on time. Well let's go to library now and
start your lesson shall we?"
Serena smiled brightly at her "Apology accepted, you go on ahead I will
be there soon."
"Alright but please hurry, It is your final lesson before going to the
Earth and I want them all to see how beautiful and intelligent you have
become."
Lady Beryl smiled a little and with that she was off.
"Well guys I gotta go. I'll see you tomorrow in the gardens to go to
EARTH. Remember don't be late." Serena giggled, waved to her friends and
started walking in the direction of the moon library. The senshi just stared
after her, smiling to themselves. I bet she will be the one who is going to
be late. They all thought including Luna.
***
The moon library was a huge hall filled with books. It had two floors.
On the bottom floor was the entrance and loads of books. There were stairs to
go to the second floor, from the first floor when you looked up you could see
the second. On the second floor the books were very old. There were desks on
which to study and there was a huge clear window showing the beautiful
stars in the sky. The window was put on the second floor so you could see the
stars no matter what time it was. Day or night. It was breath taking.
Serena sat at her polished oak table staring at the Earth. Serena thought to herself. She saw
Lady Beryl look up from the book she was reading. She had a disapproving
look on her face. Quickly Serena went back to the papers she was studying.
It was history on the planets, moons and the stars of the universe.
"Well Princess Serenity I see you have finished reading the papers I have
given you. That is why you must be staring out the window. So what do
you think about our universe?
Serena managed to read the last paragraph quickly while Lady Beryl was
talking. " I think our universe is great. So mysterious and it has such
limitless amounts of power."
"You are right princess, this universe has lots of power in it. What do
you think the greatest power is?"
Serena thought for a moment. " I think the
greatest power is LOVE. If you love someone and they love you back and
they share the same feelings...Nothing could tear them apart. Yes Love is the
greatest power you can have. I don't think anything in this whole
universe can destroy love, it would be always apart of them even if they
had lost everything, even if they died. Love would live on."
Lady Beryl just stood there looking blank at Serena. Slowly a evil smile
appeared on her face. "Never!" was her answer. Serena was astonished at
the comment she had made. Her question was
answered. "Love can never be the greatest power. What rubbish!"
"Wh..What? Why?" Serena frowned.
"My poor princess. Love is just a formality. No one truly loves. It is
dreams and visions that are put into peoples heads so that they find
happiness and not hate. Love is no greater than a fake magicians magic."
This made Serena angry. What right did she have saying there was no such
thing as love. The one thing that she strongly believed in was love. Two
people being destinied to be together forever.
"I think your wrong. Love IS the greatest power. It overcomes all
things. It always prevails in the end. Why do you say such things?:
" I say these things to you because they are true. Love is nothing!"
"You are WRONG! What's the matter with you?"
" The greatest Power of all time is being Creator, Ruler. To dominate
and to have everything you ever wanted. Like your mother she is ruler of the
Moon Kingdom. She has the power, but imagine if you were the ruler of the
whole universe. Then you would have the ultimate power." Her eyes seemed to
be gleaming with exuberance.
Serena was horrified. All this was coming from Lady Beryl. Lady Beryl
her mothers closest friend. She stood up her arms holding the table for
balance. She was so angry that she needed support to hold herself or she
would of fallen. She was now yelling at her "You leave mother out of this.
She might be ruler but she believes in love as much as me. I..don't
understand. How..can.. you..be...so.. Serena was interrupted by Luna who
had come up to the second floor to see what the commotion was about.
"What IS going on in here?" Luna asked.
"Nothing is going on in here. Princess Serenity and I have been debating
our theories on the greatest power in the universe. I have to say
Princess Serenity is quite right. Please forgive me again princess. I didn't
mean to upset you." She smiled a fake smile.
"It's okay, I guess" replied Serena
"I think that's all for our final lesson princess. I'll see you tomorrow
in the gardens to go to Earth. You too Lady Luna." She bowed slightly
and left the room.
Luna looked at Serena. " Did something happen Serena?"
"No Luna, nothing." was Serena's quiet reply.

just forgot about the time and I was so excited about going to Earth
that all other thoughts just flew out of my brain." Serena looked a little
scared. Never before did she see Lady Beryl so mad.
"Princess Serenity that's no excuse." Beryl's temper flared at her. It
made the Senshi very angry. This was PRINCESS SERENITY she was talking to,
not just any old princess, she was their princess. Even Rei was furious
about how Lady Beryl had been talking to her. She was much nicer compared
to her.
"Lady Beryl, that is quite enough, she said she was sorry and it was
partly my fault because I forget to remind her." Luna spoke up. She to was a
little upset at how Lady Beryl was acting. Serena was always late but that
was Serena. If you changed that about her she would not be the Serena we
loved. Screaming at her would not help her at all.
"You are right Lady Luna. I am sorry that I lost my temper Princess, but
please next time try to be on time. Well let's go to library now and
start your lesson shall we?"
Serena smiled brightly at her "Apology accepted, you go on ahead I will
be there soon."
"Alright but please hurry, It is your final lesson before going to the
Earth and I want them all to see how beautiful and intelligent you have
become."
Lady Beryl smiled a little and with that she was off.
"Well guys I gotta go. I'll see you tomorrow in the gardens to go to
EARTH. Remember don't be late." Serena giggled, waved to her friends and
started walking in the direction of the moon library. The senshi just stared
after her, smiling to themselves. I bet she will be the one who is going to
be late. They all thought including Luna.
***
The moon library was a huge hall filled with books. It had two floors.
On the bottom floor was the entrance and loads of books. There were stairs to
go to the second floor, from the first floor when you looked up you could see
the second. On the second floor the books were very old. There were desks on
which to study and there was a huge clear window showing the beautiful
stars in the sky. The window was put on the second floor so you could see the
stars no matter what time it was. Day or night. It was breath taking.
Serena sat at her polished oak table staring at the Earth. Serena thought to herself. She saw
Lady Beryl look up from the book she was reading. She had a disapproving
look on her face. Quickly Serena went back to the papers she was studying.
It was history on the planets, moons and the stars of the universe.
"Well Princess Serenity I see you have finished reading the papers I have
given you. That is why you must be staring out the window. So what do
you think about our universe?
Serena managed to read the last paragraph quickly while Lady Beryl was
talking. " I think our universe is great. So mysterious and it has such
limitless amounts of power."
"You are right princess, this universe has lots of power in it. What do
you think the greatest power is?"
Serena thought for a moment. " I think the
greatest power is LOVE. If you love someone and they love you back and
they share the same feelings...Nothing could tear them apart. Yes Love is the
greatest power you can have. I don't think anything in this whole
universe can destroy love, it would be always apart of them even if they
had lost everything, even if they died. Love would live on."
Lady Beryl just stood there looking blank at Serena. Slowly a evil smile
appeared on her face. "Never!" was her answer. Serena was astonished at
the comment she had made. Her question was
answered. "Love can never be the greatest power. What rubbish!"
"Wh..What? Why?" Serena frowned.
"My poor princess. Love is just a formality. No one truly loves. It is
dreams and visions that are put into peoples heads so that they find
happiness and not hate. Love is no greater than a fake magicians magic."
This made Serena angry. What right did she have saying there was no such
thing as love. The one thing that she strongly believed in was love. Two
people being destinied to be together forever.
"I think your wrong. Love IS the greatest power. It overcomes all
things. It always prevails in the end. Why do you say such things?:
" I say these things to you because they are true. Love is nothing!"
"You are WRONG! What's the matter with you?"
" The greatest Power of all time is being Creator, Ruler. To dominate
and to have everything you ever wanted. Like your mother she is ruler of the
Moon Kingdom. She has the power, but imagine if you were the ruler of the
whole universe. Then you would have the ultimate power." Her eyes seemed to
be gleaming with exuberance.
Serena was horrified. All this was coming from Lady Beryl. Lady Beryl
her mothers closest friend. She stood up her arms holding the table for
balance. She was so angry that she needed support to hold herself or she
would of fallen. She was now yelling at her "You leave mother out of this.
She might be ruler but she believes in love as much as me. I..don't
understand. How..can.. you..be...so.. Serena was interrupted by Luna who
had come up to the second floor to see what the commotion was about.
"What IS going on in here?" Luna asked.
"Nothing is going on in here. Princess Serenity and I have been debating
our theories on the greatest power in the universe. I have to say
Princess Serenity is quite right. Please forgive me again princess. I didn't
mean to upset you." She smiled a fake smile.
"It's okay, I guess" replied Serena
"I think that's all for our final lesson princess. I'll see you tomorrow
in the gardens to go to Earth. You too Lady Luna." She bowed slightly
and left the room.
Luna looked at Serena. " Did something happen Serena?"
"No Luna, nothing." was Serena's quiet reply.
