Chapter 1 - The Meeting
By Prince Johnathan of Jupiter

~~BGM Choice: Theme from The Saint~~

Foreword
Teen Samurai was a teenager named Sean Storan who was granted special powers by Ying, an immortal who once every generation or so chooses one teen to become Teen Samurai, a mystical warrior who would fight the evil Gorcon and his Skeletal Ninja. During the training of a Samurai, they would travel back in time to visit other Samurais and learn from them. There was one of such Samurai known as the Moon Samurai, as he came from the Moon Kingdom, as one of the Knights of Jupiter. Sean went back in time under the alias of Johnathan Logan. That is where our story begins......

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was a beautiful night on the planet of Jupiter, 3 of it's moons already risen in the sky. Sean was running down the path buckling his uniform shirt, already late for the Guard Check In. This one was gonna be supervised by the Princess herself! He was finally gonna meet Princess Lita. His heart jumped slightly at the thought. From the time he heard about her, he knew he had to meet her, and here he is now, late for Inspection. Finally he reached the form up, and a young man with a yin/yang patch on his uniform came over to Sean

"Where have you been?!" He asked

"Well I only read the layout, not memorized it, and these uniforms....."

Suddenly, they heard a fanfare

"The Princess, Lita...."

*This is it.... Here she comes...* Sean thought to himself as he tried to straighten up, looking like a British Soldier.

She walked down in a simple dress of deep green, with semi-puffy shoulders, but her walk was that of a confidant warrior. She reached one end, and one by one the guards stepped forward, and then stepped back. She reached Sean, and slightly smirked

"This is not the Army, you can relax your stance..."

Sean slowly relaxes and calms down, and his eyes meet hers. He knew right then she would be different from Jena, the girl he liked back in his time.

She spoke to him "Name and Rank, Soldier."

He kind of stuttered "Um.... Johnathan Logan ma'am.... New transfer from the Io Division of the Guard."

She turned to the head guard, who happened to be the Moon Samurai. "Why was I not informed."

He bowed to her "He was a last minute addition, Princess."

She looked at the Moon Samurai, then turned to Sean. "I see..." She looked to the rest. "Dismissed, return to your posts. Except you." She points to Sean. "You come with me."

Sean bowed slightly and fell in behind her. They walked down the path to the palace gardens, where upon being clear of all ear, she spun on him and got in his face "Alright, who are you?! And don't tell me from the Io Division of the guard, as there IS no Guard contingent there!! So who are you?" She looked ready to punch him in the face.

He moved back some to escape her glare, but she gave chase. "Look, Princess, I can't tell you who exactly I am, but you must believe I am not of the Negaverse. Your special senses would tell you that."

"All I know is that you are not from here, and that for all I know you could be here to kill me and my family."

"If you believe that, strike me down now!" He makes a flourish, and disappears.

She enters a defensive crouch and looks around for the vanished man. Then behind her she hears deep mechanical breathing. She turns....

He wears a white helmet with a red visor and White Ranger style faceplate. He wears a blue sleeveless sweatshirt with a long sleeved white shirt under it, with black fingerless gloves and metallic fingers. His pants look like blue jeans, with high top boots on his feet. He wears a green belt with a golden ring with a lighting bolt in the center for a buckle.

She looked at this being almost afraid, but steeled her face of emotion. "Who are you?"

"I am Teen Samurai, and I am here to serve you Princess." He bows before her. She quirks a brow. "And why would you do that?"

"Because of all the palaces, I wish to serve the Princess of the Gas Giant called Jupiter" His voice, though synthesized, is sincere

"If you want to serve me, I must know who you are...."

"For the safety of us both, it would be better...."

"I COMMAND IT!!" she cries

He mutters "If I do this, you must accept all the responsibility involved"

She thinks for a moment. "Alright, so be it."

The being shimmers, and transforms into a human shape, that of the guard that vanished.

"I am Sean Storan of the planet Earth, in the year 1997. I came back in time to learn from the Moon Samurai."

She moves closer to him silently "But why come here?"

"Because in all honesty, from the moment I heard about you, I knew I had to meet you."

She looks him in the eyes "And now that you have?"

He looks at her "Now I've fallen in love with you, Princess."

Her eyes almost light up "And I think I might be falling for you as well. It sounds almost crazy, love at first sight."

He places an arm around her "But it's possible...." He leans in and kisses her softly..... and she returns his kiss.
