As her mother's amazing fireworks show ended with a brilliant display of colors, shapes, and deafening booms, the 14 year old princess of the moon, Serenity, isn't out watching the display with everyone else, a much simpler beauty that of earth has captured her undivided attention. Even after years of starring at the swirling blues and greens she never tired of simply looking at the earth. Dreaming about what she would find there if she actually got up the nerves to go there, just once, maybe…
"Serenity?" The soft voice of Mercury sounds behind her. "Serenity, why are you up here by yourself? Aren't you enjoying your birthday party?" She sounded hurt. Serenity could understand why she felt that way, especially since her, Jupiter, Mars, and Venus had all been working on the party preparations for months. Serenity sighed, duty calls. She turns to Mercury and walks to her and hugs her, squeezing her slim figure and crinkling her blue dress that coincided perfectly with her hair and eyes.
"No, I love my party, I just danced a little too much and when the fireworks started I wanted a better view. Everyone's so tall, or at least, taller than me. I wanted to see them without having to jump around like an idiot." They both laugh.
"That's understandable, are you tired, I can take you back to your room. Nobody will mind." She nods and the two girls walk, down a long distant hallway.
