Don't mind the dates on these, if there are any! This is the THIRD time I'm posting it
because I had some trouble with the last one! The first time I posted it, when I wanted
to add a chapter, it wouldn't let me, so I posted it again. The second time, it happened
again. I hope it works this time...I am really sorry for losing all my reviews though. -_-
^_^ Oh, and as for the promised 'summary':
* * * * *
During the war with Beryl, Serenity and Endymion find themselves struggling to stay
together. Hastol, Endymion's father, is an overbearing man who hates the idea that Serenity
is 'playing' with his son's heart and therefore weakening him. But when Queen Selenity allows
her daughter to go to Earth and into a military camp with Endymion, things become completely
confusing. Lost beautiful creatures called the White Wolves are under Serenity's command soon
and even though Pluto lets Serenity know her fate, the princess doesn't listen...and soon...she
finds herself doing things that will completely change the Time Cipher and the worlds, for all
eternity.
* * * * *
Note: There is also General/Senshi romance in this!

Love and Desperation
Prologue

Rated: PG/PG-13. I'm not really sure about this part. But the rest will be PG-13.
Endymion..., Serenity thought as she sat next to her mother's throne. She looked
around her noticing how her mother's well organized ball was going as planned.
The crystal chandeliers hung from the majestic ceiling in the dance room. The guests
enjoyed themselves greatly. The girls giggled quietly and the gentlemen smiled softly.
For them, everything was perfect.
But not for Serenity.
She looked at her mother's politely smiling face. She was so beautiful, so flawless.
Every single strand of her silver hair rested just right on her back and shoulders.
"Serenity, darling," she said softly from her throne. "Why don't you go dance? You're
young, you're beautiful. There are hundreds of young men here." She added quietly, but
never looking at her daughter. Her eyes studied the dance floor, admiring the party's
excellence.
Serenity sighed and looked at her mother. Her two very long golden pig tails that
were tied up in two attractive balls on her head, flowed graciously as she moved her head.
She frowned.
"Mother, please. I am weary from my training." She uttered quietly. Queen Selenity did
not seem convinced. She finally looked at her daughter, dark concern in her eyes.
"Your court has been training just as much as you, Serenity...and look at them, dancing
away. Your symbol is dim. What is wrong, sweetheart?" the queen asked silently. Serenity
sighed and looked away. She shook her head as if saying that nothing was wrong and
gracefully stood up from the golden throne.
She walked slowly across the dance floor, listening to the soft music that played so
beautifully in the background. The hundreds of petite mirrors that hung on the walls
reflected dancing light. Serenity turned and looked in one, staring at her reflection.
She studied her angelic face. Her sky-blue eyes stared back at her, pain and worry
reflected in them. Her characteristic red cheeks were pale now and her usual glowing moon
crescent symbol on her forehead was dim.
She didn't recognize the person that stared back at her. It definitely was not her. It
was a lost princess who looked as though she would weep in any moment.
Serenity felt a presence behind her...a familiar presence. The scent of fresh cold air
and fragrant roses reached her nostrils and her heart's beating increased.
I'm hallucinating, she thought. The princess turned quickly, but she saw nobody but the
dancers. The presence was gone. She shook her head in disappointment.
The princess glanced toward the balcony and decided to go take a breath of fresh air. As
she walked toward it, Serenity felt the presence once more. Who's playing with my mind?,
she wondered.
"Me," the voice was the one she wanted to hear most. A hand grabbed her own gently,
and turned her around. " Hello, Angel." Endymion said softly. Serenity's heart beat so
hard, she thought it would get tired and stop. The prince stood there, his long black
cape underlined with crimson, flooding from his shoulders. His profound ocean blue eyes
gazed out from behind a white mask that hid his identity, but still showed his handsome
face. He was clothed in a soft dark armor that covered his fit body perfectly. A fatal
sword was attached to his hip.
He led Serenity to the balcony which was presently void of people. A tired smile
graced his lips and a single long stemmed rose appeared in his left hand. Serenity
followed willingly, her face tired and concerned and most of all, surprised.
"Endymion!" she whispered urgently as they reached the balcony. With a wave of his
hand, the prince closed and locked the doors of the balcony. " What are you doing?! You
know you shouldn't be here!" she said. Endymion offered Serenity the rose and smiled
softly. He put a finger to his lips to quiet her and looked around from the balcony. He
removed his mask and it disappeared.
"Shh.." he said softly. "I know I shouldn't, but I had to come see you. I was so
worried. The Negaverse is attacking all the major kingdoms. It's only a matter of time
before they get here. "He said, looking into the princess's soft blue eyes. He bent down
and pressed his warm lips to hers, kissing her softly. She smiled gently and stroked his
cheeks with her delicate hand. "I can't stay long," he uttered quietly. "I teleported
from my father's camp after the battle." He looked down. "We lost twenty thousand soldiers,
Serenity. They're too strong for us."
The girl nodded, knowingly. She knew this but too well. Endymion's forces were very
strong, but the Negaverse had millions of skilled warriors and King Hastol, the prince's
father, did not want Queen Selenity to ally with him, yet. Serenity embraced her love,
wanting to keep him in her arms forever. He winced.
"You're hurt!" she exclaimed. She looked at him, studying him, trying to find out
where he was hurt. She moved the cape from his right shoulder and her eyes darkened with
worry. A very gruesome incision extended on his flesh, covered by the armor, but still
visible.
Endymion quickly tried to cover back his wound, but Serenity was quick and caught his
hand before he did so.
"Why didn't you heal this?" she questioned him. Endymion winced again as she touched
it tenderly.
"I'm too tired. My powers are weak at the moment. I haven't gotten any sleep for
thirty-four hours. I'll be fine though. Don't worry Angel." He said quietly. The girl shook
her head, however, unconvinced.
She pressed her small hand on his shoulder and a silver light outlined her. The crescent
moon symbol on her forehead glowed powerfully. A few short seconds passed, and the light
faded, as did her symbol's radiance. The wound was gone and Endymion sighed, relieved of the
pain. He moved his shoulder and took Serenity hand. He kissed it softly and embraced her
passionately.
"Thank you. What would I do without you?" he said and kissed her once more. "Why so quiet?"
he asked her.
Serenity shook her head and looked around her. The sharp movements and commands of the
guards that patrolled the castle were heard in the distance and the stars lit the balcony
delicately.
"I'm worried, Endymion. You're always away. Mars has gotten really bad feelings about
the war. Did you know that your high General Kunzite comes here every night? He has been
caught twice in Venus's quarters and he still comes here. Why do you and your generals put
yourselves in so much danger? You know that we are not supposed to be together, by the laws."
She said loudly, her temper rising. Endymion smiled.
"Yes, I know that Kunzite comes here every night and yes, I know it's dangerous for
us to keep doing this. But I'm willing to take this risk, Serenity. For you. As a matter
of fact, my generals are in the ball room somewhere. I need to call them." The prince
walked to the edge of the balcony and looked down. " It seems as though we have to teleport
from here. Your guards are definitely doing their jobs. There is not one spot in this whole
kingdom that isn't secured. Your mother has been taking superior safety precautions. That's
good." The prince took Serenity's hand and kissed it once more. He closed his eyes and in a
matter of seconds, four figures appeared from mid-air on the balcony.
"My lord?" said one of them. Silver hair rested on his shoulders and his handsome
face borne a weary expression. He had silver eyes and his tan skin contrasted greatly with
his light features. The other three tall men stood on guard, their backs straight and their
eyes vigilant.
"We need to go back without delay. My father will be looking for us." Endymion said
shortly, his voice commanding, yet considerate. The generals nodded.
Unexpectedly, four feminine figures appeared on the balcony not unlike the way the
generals had. Four attractive young ladies appeared, all attired in ball dresses of four
different colors; yellow, red, blue and green. Endymion bowed slightly, in respect. The
ladies returned the greeting and smiled at the generals.
"You're leaving, already?" asked the girl in the yellow dress. She had long, golden
hair and very blue eyes. Her physical appearance was comparable to Serenity, but she looked
dissimilar in many ways. General Kunzite nodded and smiled sweetly.
"Unfortunately, my prince is correct. King Hastol will be angered if he doesn't find us
where he saw us last." He said softly. The girls nodded in understanding and kissed the
generals goodbye.
"If you ever need me, Angel." Endymion said to the princess. "You know how to call me."
Serenity nodded and looked at him, concern reflecting in her eyes. Her symbol was dim yet
again and her eyes filled with tears that threatened to spill. Endymion bent down and
kissed her once more and with a flash of blue light, he disappeared.
End Prologue.
