"What are you doing out here again?"asked a voice.
Princess Serenity turned around. She saw one of her guardians, Princess Venus.
"I was looking at the Earth."
Princess Venus looked at the sky. From the moon, instead of seeing a silvery orb, there was a view of a blue and white marble.
"What attraction could the closest planet have?"she asked. "Anyway, the Queen wants to see us in the throne room. All of us. Right away."
They walked inside from the balcony, and down several long corridors. They reached a large hall, with a white marble floor, and silver gleaming walls, and a high ceiling, where opposite of them stood a large throne where Queen Serenity sat. Everyone bowed, and stood, waiting to be addressed.
"As we know, my daughter's sixteenth birthday is approaching. That means that soon we will have several suitors visiting."
"Oh, that means that we'll have several visiting at once, won't we? And we'll give a lot of parties, won't we?"Princess Venus asked.
"Of course. They'll begin arriving soon, so I expect you to see to all that, Venus."she said.
"Everything will be done perfectly, Your Majesty."
