Title: Serenity and Endymion
Prologue:
Have anyone ever answered the question of why the Moon travels around the Earth? Scientists would answer that the Earth's gravity pulls the Moon in an orbit around it but what is gravity? It is not something that we could touch, hold, or see. How could anyone be certain that it existed in this universe? Just because Mr. Newton (the man who "discovered" gravity) says so, doesn't everyone make mistakes in life? Couldn't that scientific fact be a mistake also? Not everything could be explained with science. What about the question of what came first, the chicken or the egg? Or where is the limit to the heavens? Or if a tree fell in the forest and nobody was there to hear it, would it still make a sound? Can everything be explained with science? The answer to that question is, obviously, no.
This is a story that might explain about why the Moon orbits around the Earth. This is a story of love but without fate. But how, you would ask, could there be love but without fate to bring it together? We can't answer the question ourselves. But is everything fate? We believed so. Some people would want to have a child but wouldn't be able to have one. Some people would not want a child but received one anyhow. People say that if you try hard enough, you would succeed. But how could you succeed in something, take the example, childbirth if you can't have one (whatever the reasons are)? That's why we believed that everything is fate.
This story is a romance between two fiery tempered star-crossed lovers that happened over 1000 years ago. May your heart wish for what is the best for both of them.
Chapter 1
A single star twinkled in the heavens and pierced through the darkness around her. Soon, trillions of other stars joined the leader, finally creating enough light for her to see. Wind blew through where she was standing in, making her sliver hair fly behind her, and blowing her silk white dress around her ankles.
Looking around her, tears welled up in her eyes. Around her was what was left of a beautiful garden. Tall columns stood everywhere, some crumpling and some already fallen. The once sweet-smelling flowers are gone, destroyed completely by fire. Off in the distance, she could see the ruins of a once-magnificent palace, poking out of the debris all around it like a tiny mountain. The air smelled of fire and dust, making her cough uncontrollably.
"How can these horrible things happen?" She asked softly, her voice the only sound in the still air. "Why? Why?" Tears coursed down her cheeks, shimmering in the starlight. She raised her head to the sky caught her breath as the most beautiful planet in the universe caught her eye: Earth. A place of dreams, hopes, and...love. She could still remember the sparkling blue of his eyes, his midnight black hair, and the warmth of his touch that seems to bring shivers running through her veins... Endymion, her true love. Just the thought of him brings a slight smile on her lips and warms her heart, causing the moon on her forehead to emit a faint glow.
Walking around carefully, she walked toward the lake, the water littered with dirt and debris. Looking around again, she recalled a memory and laughed a bit at it. This was where they first met. He thought that she was a servant and she thought that he was the new gardener that her mother hired. She could still feel the pain when she ran into him and acting as the princess she is, she pushed the blame on him. She was so angry then but now, looking back, she realized how stupid it actually it...
"Princess Serenity! Where are you?" A young woman called out, searching around the shadows for a glimpse of the silver hair that belonged to her friend. "Why am I looking for silver hair when I knew that she had tied a scarf around it when she is outside?" She mumbled to herself, more than a little annoyed. "You better come out now because I am losing my patience with you!"
A slight giggling was heard to her left and the young woman lurched toward that side. Running was heard accompanied by laughter and two young women broke through the shadows and into the fading sunlight of a large garden. The scents of roses gathered in the air like an exotic perfume and the two girls run toward the sparkling lake.
"Stop running, Serenity!" The raven-haired girl shouted. "Just wait until I catch you!"
"Well, you would just have to catch me first!" The other girl ran a little faster and turned around to laugh at her friend, who seems a bit out of breath. Not seeing where she was going, she ran into something that felt like a wall.
"OUCH! When was a new wall built here?" She shook her head furiously, trying to clear it.
"Do you always run into people?" A voice snapped. "Clumsy idiot."
From her new seat on the ground, she looked up at a towering figure of a man looming over her. He was dressed in a black armor with a cape, a sword strapped at his side. The blade flashed as it caught the last rays of the sun. The wind tousled his jet-black hair and piercing eyes of midnight blue glared down at her, a scowl masking his features.
"Do you even apologize when you run into people?" The man sneered at her. "Didn't your parents teach you that or are they as uneducated as you?"
"Gomen--" she stopped, suddenly realizing the last words he said. "What did you just say about my parents?"
"That they are as uneducated as you."
"WHAT?!" She shrieked. "YOUR parents are the ones that are uneducated because they never taught you not to talk back to ladies WAY above your station."
"Ladies? Or maids?" He gave her a critical glance. "Been stealing clothes from the laundry lately? I think that this dress has better material for a high-born duchess then a servant." He raised a hand to feel the material of her sleeve.
"Get your slimy hands off me!" She twisted away from him. "And stealing clothing from the laundry? Only you would be so stupid to dip so low. If you have known that there are guards watching the laundry, nobody would have tried to attempt something as foolish as that."
"NOT if you are inside the washing room." He retorted, his tone matching hers perfectly. "In other words for stupid people to understand, you are a washing maid."
She fumed for a while but turned to her friend with a tiny bit of understanding. "Didn't mother say that she was going to hire a new gardener since the other one is on vacation in Venus?"
"Yes." Her friend nodded. "She did. She also said that it was going to be a young man with black hair."
"Okay." She turned back to the man, who watched this exchange with interest. "So, you may begin with the flowers over there underneath the trees. Be sure to trim the roses and fix the fence around the back walls. That gate needed paint and—"
"Wait a second here!" The man demanded. "Who did you think I am? The gardener?"
"Umm...aren't you?" She gave him a look. "Or have you been stealing from the laundry lately?"
"Stealing?" He asked with a choking sound. "Why, if I requested it, an entire closet full of clothing would be made within seconds." He snapped his fingers. "You would be sorry when you talk to royalty like that!"
"Royalty?" She laughed as if it was the best joke she has ever heard in her life. "What, Prince Charming the gardener who is waiting for his princess to come and trim the roses with him?"
"You would be sorry that you had said that." He warned, his blue eyes flashing dangerously.
"Oh?" She lifted her eyebrows mockingly. "I am so scared that I am shaking. In fact, I am so scared that--"
"Umm...excuse me?" A voice asked, making both of them turn around quickly. Standing behind them, bowing slightly, is a young girl with brown hair.
"What do you wanted?" The man asked, annoyed. "Can't you see that we are busy?"
"Don't talk to her like that." The silver-haired girl snapped at him.
"Oh, I see." He tapped a finger on his chin. "One of your servant friends."
"Servant?" The brown haired girl asked. "How can you say that to—"
"To who? I can talk to whom I wish, anytime, any place." He smirked and crossed his arms in front of his chest. "Let's see what you could do about it."
"Shut up, jerk." She snapped and turned back to the girl. "Yes, Naru?"
"Her Royal Highness requested your presence in the throne room immediately. She said that there are some important issues that she wanted to discuss with you." Naru replied.
"Oh, I see. The Queen must have found out that you were stealing clothes from her daughter." He shook his head sadly. "When you steal, please cover up your tracks--"
"Like that way you do?" She snapped at him and glared. "I am not surprised that you know the ways of thievery so well. Arigato, Naru. I would be there right away." She turned to her raven-haired friend. "Come on, Rei. Let's leave."
"Hey!" He shouted at their retrieving backs. "I didn't dismiss you yet!"
The silver-haired girl spun around and gave him a radiant smile. "Then excuse me, Your... Highness." She dropped a graceful curtsy and turned to catch up with her companions.
He stared after them and suddenly, he felt the hair on his neck raised up. Pretending not to notice, he waited three seconds and spun around quickly, drawing out his sword and pointing it at his would-be attacker's neck.
"Hey!" He said and held up his hands. "It's me!"
"Jadeite!" He lowered his sword and laughed. "Don't do that! I could have killed you!"
"Well, Prince Endymion." His friend and general walked around him and stared off into the same direction that Endymion was looking before attacking him. Studying the three girls, he let out a low whistle. "Cute."
"Which one?"
"The raven-haired one." Jadeite looked more closely. "The other one isn't bad either. Who are they? High-borne Moon ladies?"
"Servants." Endymion answered.
"Servants?" Jadeite laughed. "I never thought that you would have to go so low for a companion. I happened to hear a rumor that women are lining up to be in your bed--"
"And let me guess... YOU started that rumor."
His friend ignore his last remark and said, "And I thought nobles are more your style."
Endymion placed his hands in his pockets. "But the sliver-haired one is different. She acts like she is some countess or baroness but I would reckoned that she is a servant."
"Watch who you insulted." His friend warned. "She could be one."
Endymion chuckled. "The highest she could be is maybe the daughter of a duke. Even if she is, she can't compare to the title of a prince of Earth."
"Well, you brought it upon yourself." Jadeite sighed and throws his hands into the air. "Here I am, trying to give you my wisdom and here you are, ignoring it completely. Well, I tried my best."
"Oh, please! Where are Nephrite, Zoicite, and Kunzite?" Endymion asked of his other friends and generals that came with him to the Moon.
"Out somewhere, I supposed." Jadeite answered. "You should really listen to me."
"Oh, Kami!" Endymion looked up at the sky, watching as the first star appeared. "You sounded just like my mother when she is in one of her let's-teach-my-son-about-life moods. What are the chances that she could be something higher than a countess? She couldn't be the Moon Princess!"
"Who does that baka think he is?" Princess Serenity stomped through the hallways of the Moon Palace, her angry voice bouncing off the walls. "A prince? A prince!" She threw her hands in the air in rage, causing a giggle from her friend, Rei, who was the princess of Mars. "What is so funny?"
"Well, you don't have to act so harsh to the poor guy." Rei answered, tossing a black lock of hair over her shoulders. "You gave that guy quite a shutdown."
"Serves him right." Serenity muttered.
"Well, what does he have that would compare to the Princess of the Moon?" Rei continued. The Moon was the home of Queen Serenity, the Supreme ruler of the Universe. Princess Serenity was her daughter and even though all the planets had a princess, except for Earth, they still can't compare to the power that Princess Serenity held since birth. Earth had a prince, but he still couldn't compare with Serenity.
All the rulers of the throne have similar appearances. The most similar would be the silver hair, the silver eyes, and the crescent moon on their foreheads.
"Oh, he makes me so mad that I wanted to kill him!" Serenity stomped again. "How dare he speak to me like that?"
"Who has made our dear princess so mad that she wanted to kill him?" A voice asked and Rei and Serenity turned around to see three of their friends approaching them. Princess of Jupiter, Makoto, was the one that had spoken and she laughed at the angry expression on Serenity's face.
"So, who is he?" Princess of Venus, Minako, the blonde with the blue eyes, asked. "Cute or not? Rich or not?"
"Please, stop pestering Serenity." Princess of Mercury, Ami, pleaded. "She would blow up if you ask her too many questions."
"Confess!" Minako whined and tugged at Serenity's arm.
"Okay!" Serenity couldn't help herself and she laughed. "Come to my room and I would tell you."
The five girls made their way to Serenity's huge bedroom and once inside, Serenity and Rei poured out the entire story from top to bottom.
"So, that is what happened." Makoto said slowly, leaning back into the chair.
"I know. It makes me so mad that he thinks that he has the right to offend me like that!" Serenity flopped back onto her queen-size bed. "If I find out who he is, I would make sure that he dies a slow and painful death." She pulled the scarf of her head and clenched in her hands.
"Ooo... touché." Rei winced, folding her legs under her from her seat on the carpet. "I feel sorry for the poor guy."
"It seems to me that Serenity has finally met her match." Ami said and placed down the huge volume that she was reading. She never went anywhere without a book.
"Finally! Someone who can handle her hot temper." Minako jumped off the bed as Serenity threw a pillow at her. "Help!"
"Serenity!" Ami scolded.
"What are you reading now, Ami?" Makoto asked, peering over her shoulder. "The Complete History and Timeline of Earth? What IS this?"
"Didn't you know that Prince Endymion and his four generals were sent to the Moon for protection in case Queen Beryl attacked?" Serenity asked.
"Yes and I thought that it would be wise to research on them before and see if they are reliable or not." Ami said and held up another book. "This is about the army."
"Kami, where did you find all this stuff, Ami?" Minako asked and leafed through the book quickly.
"The Royal Library. They have the most complete collection of books since the beginning of time."
"Where? In the "boring" section?" Minako scoffed.
"No. The "history" section." Ami answered, a hint of sarcasm in her tone.
Minako looked confused. "And where would that be?"
"Aisle 11, shelf 23." Serenity answered immediately.
"Serenity, when did you know about this stuff?" Rei asked.
"How could someone not even know their own house?" Serenity answered.
"No wondered I can't find it." Minako stated thoughtfully. "I never quite make it through the door."
The girls laughed as Serenity suddenly remembered. "Oh my Kami!" She shouted, leaping off the bed in a flash. "I totally forgot!"
"What?" Rei asked.
"I was supposed to be in the throne room!" Serenity grabbed a hairbrush and brushed the dust from her dress hastily. "Mother is going to kill me!"
"What happened?" Makoto asked. "Where are you going again?"
"Got to run! Tell you later!" Serenity shouted and dashed out of the door, much to the amusement of her confused friends.
She got to the throne room in ten minutes, panting and huffing outside the door. Walking in, Serenity were greeted by Queen Serenity
"It took you a long time to get here from the gardens." Queen Serenity said with a calm expression on her face, leading her daughter into the conference room. Sitting down, she motioned for her daughter to sit also.
"Don't remind me what happened!" Serenity gave her mother a disgusted expression, and dropped down on a soft chair. "Just thinking of it makes me so angry!"
"What happened?" Queen Serenity asked, an interested look on her face.
"Nothing important, I assumed." Serenity waved her hand dismissively. "So, mother. What important issues do you wished to discuss with me?"
"Well, Serenity. You are going to be sixteen soon." Queen Serenity smiled down at her daughter. "Quite a nice age for a girl."
"That's why it's called Sweet Sixteen." Serenity smiled. She had always looked forward to celebrating her sixteenth birthday.
"True." Queen Serenity took her daughter's hand. "It is about time you choose a suitor—"
"Mother!" Serenity whined. "I don't want to marry yet!"
Queen Serenity sighed. "But most of the girls your age have suitors!"
"Mother! I am not like most girls! I am your daughter!" Serenity protested.
"And that's why you needed to find the perfect suitor for you." Queen Serenity hugged her. "I can't give away my daughter to just anyone. He must be a perfect gentleman."
"And boy, don't we know that there aren't many around here." Serenity muttered, thinking of how she had spent her "wonderful" afternoon.
"I know who would be perfect!" Queen Serenity exclaimed. "Prince Endymion of Earth! I have met the man. He is smart, handsome, and very charming. He has very wonderful qualities in a man and—"
"Probably have the worst ones in a man also."
"Serenity, dear," her mother begun, "I wished that you would see some light in this. You cannot rely upon your poor and boring mother throughout your lifetime."
"I like my poor and boring mother."
Queen Serenity sighed. "What would you like to do then?" She sat back down on her throne.
"If I finally marry, it would be for love." Serenity declared.
"But true love is especially hard to find these days. How would you know that it is true love instead of someone just after your money and power? It could be very dangerous trusting the wrong per--"
"Mother!" Serenity protested. "If it's true love, I would be able to feel it. I know the difference."
"But it's very hard trying to distinguish love from desire." Her mother warned.
"You married for true love."
"Yes but it wasn't one in the beginning." Queen Serenity got a faraway look in her eyes. "It was an arranged marriage to connect the ruling powers of the Universe but fortunately for us, we realized that we loved one another further in the marriage. No one could replace him."
"I know." Serenity closed her eyes. Her father had died before her birth, dying of wounds fighting the Negaverse. Even though she had never met him, she loved him anyway.
"Why don't we turn to happier matters?" Queen Serenity said and folded her hands on her lap. "How would you like to spend your birthday? It is coming up in a three weeks."
"How about going to Earth?" Serenity answered. "I have been to all the planets except that one."
"But I believed that Queen Beryl of the Negaverse has been after that planet for a long time because of her obsession with Prince Endymion." Queen Serenity said. "Isn't it sort of dangerous?"
"But I only have one Sweet Sixteen in my life!" Serenity protested. "Besides, the Senshi could come with me."
"The Senshi couldn't drop what they are doing just so they could protect you for your trip. I happened to know that the Outer Senshi are especially busy with the protecting the out planets this month." Queen Serenity said. "And the Inners just decided on a new protection program. Gomen, darling. It seems like you can't go but we'll see how things turn out."
Serenity seemed to accept this but inside, she was scheming a way to get down to Earth. No evil Queen from the Negaverse was going to stop her from what she wanted.
"He said that to you!" Haruka's face was a mask of anger. "How dare he insult you like that? Who does he think he is? The King of this Universe? He is just some gardener!"
"Why don't you tell that to him." Serenity said, turning to Haruka. The entire group was walking to the village for some shopping and planning for the grand ball that would take place this week.
"Don't worry. We would." Michiru said. "He better learn not to mess with the Senshi."
"That right." Makoto placed an arm around Serenity's shoulders. "We won't let him get away with this."
"Thank you." Serenity smiled and pointed at merchant that was selling cloth. "Those materials over there looked pretty nice. Let's go and look!" Nodding, they group walked over and began to examine the texture of the cloths.
"This one looks very nice." Hotaru held up a reddish purple colored piece of cloth. "Maybe you could wear it, Setsuna."
Setsuna studied it carefully. "Maybe. I think would think about it."
"The silver brocaded material looks wonderful. Maybe it would look good on you, Minako." Serenity held it up for her friend's inspection.
"Don't think so. It might look better on YOU. The silver goes with your hair and your eyes." Minako said.
Serenity looked at it closely and put it near her bosom, looking at her reflection in the mirror that was propped on the wall. "Really? I was thinking white would be more of my color though—"
"Well, if it isn't the maid who steals from her betters." A voice sneered, loud enough for everyone in the town square to look up.
Serenity stiffened. "Ignore him." She muttered to her friends, whom turned to stare at him. She continued to do whatever she was doing.
"Ignoring me, aren't you?" He shouted again. "I am talking to you, the one with the scarf!" Every eye in the area turned to stare at her.
Serenity couldn't stand it anymore. "What do you wanted, GARDENER?" She shouted, adding the last word in a louder voice. "Shopping for seeds to plant in your sick head to make you more stupid?"
"Stupid?" He asked. "I am not stu—"
"Oh wait." Serenity smiled sweetly. "Calling you stupid would be an insult to stupid people." Everyone started to laugh at her comment, making him glare at her with renewed anger.
"Ouch, that hurt." One of his four companions commented and ducked as Endymion tried to punch him.
"I think that you should change your introduction to girls that you like." The one with brown hair smirked. "It seems to me that she isn't too impressed with your flirting."
"And I am not impressed with yours either." Serenity snapped, folding her arms over her chest. "What do you wanted?"
"Nothing much. Is an apology and a curtsy too much to ask?" Endymion replied. "Oh, you were supposed to curtsy when you see royalty and address me as Your Highness, not whatever vocabulary you are inventing in your head."
"Are you asking?"
"Yes."
"So my answer to you would be... no." Serenity presented him with her back, picking up the nearest bolt of cloth. "I never apologize for something that I never did and bowing would be impossible for me to do."
"You look familiar." The man with whitish hair asked, stepping closer to get a better look. "Have we met?"
"Stand back." Makoto stepped in front of her and glared at the five men. "Let me handle this."
"Yes, let a girl handle this situation." Endymion mimicked in a high and squeaky voice. "I would scream until the glass shatters and when you touch me, I would slap you."
"Oh, that does it." Makoto walked forward, aiming a punch at his mid-section. He leaped back, escaping it within inches.
"You asked for it!" He warned, drawing out his sword.
"Do men always fight women with swords?" Minako said, standing beside Makoto. "Or are they afraid of losing to them."
"Find, no weapons then." Endymion said and bowed. "Does that satisfy you, milady?" He gave her a casual smile.
"Flirting already?" Rei asked with a sneer. "But flirting would not help you win THIS fight."
"Like it ever did?" Serenity smiled. "Come on. Give me your best shot."
Taking the invitation, he launched forward. Immediately, Haruka stepped forward.
"No," Serenity said, keeping her eyes on her target. "Let me fight my own battles." Reluctantly, Haruka move aside, watching carefully as Endymion as he ran toward her charge.
A split second before hitting her, Serenity jumped aside and struck out her foot, causing Endymion to trip over it! With a cry of pain, he fell into a pile of mud nearby, causing a cart of fruit to tip over. Fruit spilled everywhere, rolling into dark corners, never to be found again.
Everybody in the area burst into laughter, watching as he tried to push himself up from the dirty pile. Serenity kneels down in front of him and grins innocently. "Oink oink." She laughed. "What an animal you are." Still laughing, her friends joined her, standing around her.
With the help of his four friends, he was able to get out of the mud but not without falling back into it at least five times. Each time that happened, everyone laughed harder than the last time. Shaking some mud from his hair, he lifted his head up to glare at her.
"I'm going to have you and your friends arrested for that." He spat out.
"How? And for what?" She taunted and in a lower voice so that only he could hear, "I would just say that it's just an accident and that you were running toward me when you tripped. Everyone saw that you were charging at a poor defenseless girl and that you tripped."
"I will personally make sure you do not forget that." He promised. "I swear it by my—"
"What is going on here?" Everyone look up to see the town sheriff walking his or her way. He gave them a suspicious look.
"What is going on here? I was walking through town and you could hear the chaos a couple of streets over." He said, eyeing at the spilled mud, the tipped over cart, and Endymion's current attire. "And I could see that I was right coming to check on this."
Endymion spoke up. "These people here are giving me trouble and that includes tripping me into a puddle of mud."
"What is that supposed to mean?" Rei shook her head. "We saw you fall into the puddle. You were running toward my friend here—" she pointed at Serenity, "and he tripped into a puddle of mud. Nothing else happened."
"Yeah right." Kunzite rolled his eyes. "This girl here tripped him."
"No! I didn't." Serenity protested and sniffed. "I can't believe that nobody believes me. I mean, I am telling the truth and—" She buried her face in her hands and promptly burst into tears.
"I can't believe that you made her cry! How could you?" Michiru hugged Serenity, trying to calm her with soothing words.
"I am just trying the truth and... and..." She started to cry again.
While her friends tried to comfort her, Ami walked up to the sheriff and cupped her hands around his ear. "She is Princess Serenity." She whispered and just leaves it as that.
The sheriff gave her a look mixed with surprise and shock. "And you are..."
Ami curtsied. "Princess Ami, at your service."
The sheriff looked at the still crying Serenity and noticed the silver hair underneath the scarf and the crescent moon on her forehead for the first time. She had kept the crescent moon hidden whenever she was outside of the palace with a special necklace and kept the hair tied up so it wouldn't show too much. He looked at the angry Endymion, who was shaking his fist and screaming at her, causing her to cry even louder.
"Stop it this instant!" The sheriff yelled at the men. "It's obvious that you are the one causing the trouble and that she is innocent. I would let you off this time with a warning but if you do that one more time, you would be going to the courthouse for verbal assault and harassment!"
"What!? But—"
"Go now before I change my mind." The sheriff tipped his hat in the direction of the girls and walked off.
Endymion walked up to Serenity and said in a low voice, "Remember what I said before? Forget that it's a threat. It is a promise." He gave them one more glare, in which her friends matched with theirs, and left.
"That was interesting." Hotaru said.
"Totally exciting." Serenity sighed and wiped her eyes. "I think I have used up my water supply for this week."
"Nice acting." Rei laughed. "I thought it was real, were it not for the fact that we knew what was happening."
"Now that this is over, may we continue shopping?" Minako asked.
"Owww!" Endymion winced as Zoicite hit a sore spot on his side with the fake sword. "Watch it!"
"I thought you were the best at small fights with girls." Zoicite strike him again, this time on the leg. "But of course, your mother should have told you not to hit girls."
"Please! Girls don't know their places unless they are taught where they stand. Besides, I am the best. She only took me by surprise by jumping away." He tried defending himself, without any luck. Leaping out of the way, he nearly fell to back away from the swipe at his mid-section.
"Very smart. Using the opponent's energy against himself. I think I read about it in one of the last books of martial arts training." Nephrite said thoughtfully, giving his sweating commander a grin. "I think you are in trouble, Endymion."
Endymion tried to strike back but Zoicite countered it with a force so strong that Endymion dropped the sword. Zoicite held the sword, pointing it at his neck. "Surrender, Endymion." He teased and laughed. "You lose."
Endymion fumed. "You see! They are giving me bad luck."
"Excuses, excuses..." Jadeite said in a singsong voice. The two other men laughed
Endymion stared at the sky. "I am going to get them tomorrow."
