Notes: This takes place just before the first season of Sailor Moon. It's a retelling
of the manga version of Sailor Moon. However slight changes are made being there
is no Usagi, just 'Princess Serenity' as the title suggests. This is an idea I had for
awhile. Enjoy!
As to my absence, a thunderstorm knocked out my power and I had been without
power for awhile. Enjoy!

Mamoru Chiba had known of a princess who was sealed within a mirror. She was a beautiful
blond haired princess which had a very interesting hairstyle. She looked very sad, knowing
she was sealed for eternity.
He had heard of her through some old books which he had read and he wished there was a way
to free her. One of the entries which he read had stated this:
'She's a cursed princess! Don't free her! May misfortune fall on those who break the seal on the
mirror!'
When Mamoru read about the warning about this princess, he thought to himself, 'surely the curse
is just a myth?" He thought. Mamoru did not believe in such fables or warnings.
Each day, he kept reading the entries and he found out a clue about the location of the mirror. The
entry read as follows:
'Way deep down,
So don't frown,
So behave,
In a dark damp cave,
A cavern of Terror,
And there lies the mirror.'
The old book had stated that this cursed mirror dwelt in a cavern. However, he did not know where
this cavern was. He kept reading the old books in which he collected and he read another clue which
read the following:
'In the path which you seek,
So take a peek,
In the midst of a forest,
And there is the object in which thou desirest.'
'What kind of old clue was this?' Mamoru thought to himself. He never read anything so strange before.
He kept reading the passage and it also said that north of the great city of the 'Land of the Rising Sun,'
was the magical forest and in the midst of it was a very large and deep cavern. He had to travel there.
So, the next day, he woke up early and prepared to go there and he studied his books further and read
a passage which read on how to free this princess. The passage read:
'O Cursed one,
Be thou free,
You who are as beautiful as the sun,
The curse shall not harm me,
May you be free,
and give you liberty.'
'That is one strange phrase in order to free a girl from a mirror.' Mamoru thought to himself. The book
continued:
'This spell must be spoken at the time when the person is in front of the mirror.'
The book stated. So, Mamoru gathered up some belongings he wanted to take and he started on a journey
to free this 'cursed princess' from the mirror. However, is this something he would later regret? Only time
will tell.
