Queen Serenity moved gracefully out of the palace to the great veranda.
"Serenity? Princess Serenity!" She called out.
Her blond haired daughter was no where in sight; this was her favorite spot these days. Outside the palace walls, always looking up at the Earth it seemed her daughter was no longer happy with her home. These days she talked about the Earth with its' flowers and green grass and lovely trees, but Queen Serenity knew what really had captured her young daughters heart.
Luna came back first. "She's no where in the Palace, your highness."
"She's not anywhere on the grounds, gardens, or courtyards." Artemis reported.
"Luna, Artemis summon the Princess's Court! I am afraid my daughter has once again run away." The white haired Queen said to her trusted Mau advisors.
In the flash the cats were off and running; they were starting to become frustrated over the Princess's lack of understanding about the relationship between the Moon and Earth.
Luna sighed. "That girl never listens."
"She's in love, and young, it's not her fault." Artemis said.
Luna shook her head. "That's not a good enough excuse, she has responsibilities, and she needs to think more about her people rather than just about herself and what she wants!"
It did not take long for the cats of Mau to find the inner Sailor Senshi; the girls were older than the Princess, and trusted with guarding her safety.
"Rise Senshi, I am afraid the Princess is gone, please go find her and bring her home." Queen Serenity said to the four soldiers before her.
The girls nodded and in a flash of multicolored light each teleported to Earth to find the wayward Princess.
The Queen placed her slender hands over her heart and prayed for her daughter's safe return. The Princess put herself and the Silver Millennium in danger every time she traveled to Earth. The Moon Kingdom was to watch over the Earth from above while from within the Golden Kingdom in Elysian would stand guard. It was taboo for the Lunar people and the Earth inhabitants to mingle. Serenity had tried to make her daughter understand that, but the Princess was stubborn, and head strong.
Long ago Queen Serenity had gone to Earth, and she had been jarred by what she had seen. The Earthlings where so primitive, greedy, and blood thirsty. Wars raged constantly, and people were often brutalized, dehumanized, and sold as chattle. The humans never seemed satisfied with the purer aspects of life; they seemed to revel in harming one another for heartless reasons. The Planetary, and Satellite rulers agreed that the Earth needed to mature more before politics between them could be opened.
Queen Serenity paced, wrung her hands, and tried not to worry, but it was no use. The thought of her precious daughter being hurt, lost, robbed of her innocence, or enslaved sent wave after wave of terror rushing through her slender form. To wait for her daughter's return; the Queen retreated to the inner sanctum of the Palace where a tall crystal glowed warmly. The Queen sank to her knees and prayed hard for her daughter's safe return.
