Princess
Where is Your Dress?
Book One : On The Moon
by Lyris Mendax
This is story starts in Moon Kingdom before age of the Silver Millennium. It deals with Queen Serenity, while she was still a princess, her royal court and the moon kingdom at that time. This is an odd title I know, but the reason for it is a good one. Because I will warn you now I am going to twist the story line of this wonderful story a little. Don't worry too much I will make it end up as it should in the end.
Disclaimer: I do not own Sailer Moon
Prologue: Who I might be
My name is one that has been passed down many lines to many parts of my family. We have lived with a pride that cannot be broken. We have a skill that few have ever mastered and that is because almost from birth we had started our learning and training. Some would say it is in the blood that helps to teach and guide us. I think it is really more than that it is in our soul. It started with one man and one dream, he had seen people wronged time and time again. So little could be done to help them so he made a choice and gave his life for what he felt was right. Even at the cost of his own family and friends. But then he met others that felt as strongly and they too joined in his cause. From the ashes of what had been broken and lost he found a new life and soon he became the heart of power, the cry of a cause, a hidden leader.
Can you guess about whom I might be speaking? Does your very thoughts drift to find that answer? Many names could fit who I am talking of. Because it has been used by many people. It is a common enough idea that is passed from one soul to the next. A whisper of hope and peace, a hero in the dark, fighting against the unknown evils from man and maybe even gods them selfs, one that fights the supernatural, as well as the natural.
So common an idea is it not? Maybe because it is a real one that many can stand with and relate to. There is a reason that old ideas seem to circle and become new ones. That is because they are easy for people to understand and relate too. I know that my life will not be the ending of this story of my family, but rather just a small part of it. Should I give you our name or let the story tell itself and let you guess at who I am. Maybe as time ticks on I will slip and you will know. Maybe I will do such a poor telling of my history that you will never have a clue. For me it started over five hundred years ago. After the fall of a grand kingdom, that had a shining queen and the hope of many upon her shoulders.
But I think that before I get into my own story, I should tell you about hers, for they are very tied together after all. But what part of it should I start from, what would help you understand why I am the way that I am? Yes I will tell you their story first. Then slowly take you to mine own, that will help you to know me better and to know why we live as we do.
I can only tell it to you as it had been told to me, I do not know all of it clearly, but I will do my best, and you will have to forgive me if it gets too long in places, too filled with loving ideas, and too tainted with family history. It is a long story that you have asked me to share. I will not get mad if you walk away from me even as I tell it, because I had done the same myself, simply because I could not take it all in at once. Is this a simple love story? Maybe, in truth I am still not that sure. So get as comfortable as you can and hear this long story of mine.
Now how to start it... ahh yes I know the best way to start most stories. "A long time ago in a kingdom far away their was a prince..."
