The Union
Chapter 1-The prophecy
A long time ago, it had been prophesized, that a union between a Moon Queen and a King of Earth would either bring the destruction of two worlds or forge a powerful empire unlike any before. Many seers and soothsayers had seen this. But with the passing of the years the prophecy became forgotten. However those that heeded its warning could never decipher what exactly it would bring; power or destruction….
Endymion sat quietly listening to Kunzite, one of his top generals discuss the next battle strategy. The past few months they had ran a long battle campaign in an attempt to stop the rebel forces that had surfaced. From village to village, the so called "rebels" had killed, robbed, and incited many more to their cause. The young king was growing tired of it, but the situation only seemed to worsen.
"It is my suggestion that we attack, this time, from the north. This is where most of their activity has been for the pas two days, according to our sources."
With that Kunzite concluded his briefing to the King of Earth. After training together since they were young, Kunzite and Endymion had become like brothers. Being of noble blood Kunzite was more than honored when Enydmion or Darien as he called him, had asked him to serve on his war council. He had noticed thought that for the past few weeks, Darien had grown weary of fighting, he could understand. At twenty five, Darien had seen his share of blood shed.
"How soon can we have our troops up there?" asked Endymion
"As soon as you wish majesty, they are ready to go at a moment's notice" replied Kunzite.
"Good then, well start the attack tomorrow" Endymion began to stand up when Kunzite's voice caught his attention.
"Darien, you and I have been friends for a long time, almost like brothers" Kunzite began what he had been wanting to tell his friend for a long time.
"I know, you've been a great friend and an even better general" Darien replied. He could tell by looking at Kunzite that there was something else that he wanted to say.
"I've noticed that over the past few weeks you've been somewhat withdrawn, almost like you're here because you have too. These rebels are not going to go away any time soon, in fact they have been making attacks in the other nine kingdoms, especially in the Moon." From there Kunzite proceeded carefully, for what he was going to tell his friend he might not like.
"What are you trying to tell me friend?" The king's voice was full of curiosity as he watched his friend continue talking.
"What I'm trying to say is that perhaps you should seek and alliance with the Moon kingdom. We need reinforcements all around our kingdoms and they also need help. And not just a diplomatic allegiance but something more binding." Kunzite ended his proposal hoping that his friend would think about his idea.
"Like what? A marriage?" Darien had always been successful with women. His ocean blue eyes, midnight black hair, and muscled body had made the women at the court more than happy to come to his bed. Why he had not sought marriage? He did not know. He just knew that the women that he had bedded had satisfied his body's needs but not the more important needs in his life. He was suddenly interrupted from his thoughts by Kunzite's voice again.
"You should also consider that should something happen to you in battle; there would be no heir and no queen to take over the Kingdom"
Kunzite could tell that he had hit a chord in the King's heart. Since the death of his father Darien was left the only one in his line. He knew that if was there something that Darien did not want, was for the line that his father had died protecting to end with him.
"I'll think it over Kunzite. You are right. I have forgotten my other duties as king and have been careless." Darien proceed to stand up and headed for the door out of the Throne room. He would definitely think about what Kunzite had told him.
