Chapter 1: Pirates on the Moon
A sailing ship sails through the foggy sea of the Moon Kingdom. Standing on the front of the ship, is 8 years old princess name Serena, singing out of boredom. She hears the song from the planet Earth...
Fifteen men on the dead man's chest
Yo-ho-ho and the bottle of rum
Drink and the devil had done for the rest
Yo-ho-ho, and a bott-
Princess was cut off by someone grab her shoulder and turn around.
"Quiet, princess! Even the moon can be home for those cursed pirates! You don't want them to get us, do you." A sailor said.
"Young man, that's enough." Luna; the talking black cat, said.
"The Princess was singing the pirate song. It's bad luck to sing a pirate song in the open sea. Mark my words." A sailor said.
"Enough! Get back to work." Queen Serenity said as she join in.
"Aye, ma'am." A sailor said, went back to his mop and backet while he mutters, "Bad luck to have cats on board too. Even talking ones."
"Mother, who are we meeting in the sea again?" Princess Serena asked.
"You'll see." Queen Serenity said.
"Maybe I might meet a real pirate!" Princess Serena said.
"Sorry to disappoint you, my princess. But there are no pirates in the Moon Kingdom and even if there's one, he'll get what he deserve." Captain of the moon guard said as he arrive.
"I appreciate what you try to do but I don't want my only daughter to know about dead." Queen Serenity said.
"Yes, Of course. My apologies, your highness." Knight captain said before went off.
"Is someone we going to meet ever face pirates?" Princess Serena asked.
"You'll have to ask him when we see him." Queen Serenity said.
Sailor who talk with Princess, was looking ahead
"...Oh my mother of lord..." A sailor gasped with his mouth hanging open.
Everyone looked at what the sailor was looking at and gasped as well. A whole ship could be seen, all burnt up and destroyed.
"What happen?!" Queen Serenity asked in shock.
"That is or was the Sliver Moon, the strongest ship of the Moon Kingdom." A knight said.
"We can all guess what happen...Pirates!" A sailor said.
"That's nonsense! It was probably an accident." Knight captain said.
"Check through the ship and see any survivors." Queen Serenity said.
"Right away!" Knight captain said.
A while later, the knights and sailors arrive back with no survivors and the captain of the knights heading to Queen Serenity with a big, round, sliver hat which is decorated with golden ostrich feathers as a show of vanity.
"The Sliver Moon's captain." Knight captain said while sadly give his queen the hat.
Queen Serenity took the hat and stare at it with a little tear coming from her left eye.
"Mother...?" Princess Serena asked.
"I need to be alone for the while. Can you watch Serena?" Queen Serenity asked.
"Of course my queen." King Captain said.
With that, Queen Serenity head to the captain's cabin while dropping the hat. Princess Serena went to pick up the hat and walked to the front of the ship again and stared at the hat held in her hands, for the while. As she looked up, she saw a terrible ship that was completely black, but the thing that startled her the most was the flag…it appeared to have the Jolly Roger on it…
Serena suddenly woke up! Serena look around, she was in her room.
"Is something wrong, Serena?" Luna the cat asked.
Serena turn to her cat friend/guardian.
"Just a nightmare, that's all." Serena said.
"Well, you better get back to sleep. You are taking Rini and her friend, Hotaru out in the morning." Luna said.
Serena nodded before she went back to sleep.
(That chapter one of the Pirate of the Moon.
The story is on during the Sailor Moon S, right after Rini meet Hotaru.
You see, while watching the episode where Serena's nearly lost her Pure Heart Crystal, it glow bright. I know it must have made something so I come up with an idea.
Hope you like it.)
