Chapter 29

"I never thought we would meet so soon, Princess." Diamond bowed and kissed her hand.

Serenity's body went frigid. She didn't meet with him often but whenever they met, Diamond always made her nervous. And, now he was holding her hand so firmly kissing it a bit too long...

"Fortunately I met you before the meeting I must have with your dear 'husband'. I am sure he will lock you away the moment he finds out I am here." Diamond said pushing on the word husband.

Serenity looked around nervously. "Why would he do something like that?" She asked. She tried to win some time until she found out how to leave the man without being impolite.

"Of course I understand his reasons. If I were your husband I would keep you far, far away from every other man." Diamond said never letting her hand go.

"If you will excuse me, I need to go..." Serenity tried to pull her hand from his but Diamond held it firmly.

"Like I said, I have a meeting with the Royal Family, however, I got lost. Fortunately I met you. You wouldn't be so impolite and leave your guest lost and alone will you?"

Serenity looked around searching for something... anything that could save her. Finally she glanced back at Diamond and sighed. She had no choice.

"This way." she answered quietly.

Diamond grinned, putting her hand on his elbow he walked with her toward a door.

--

"What the hell is he doing here?!" Endymion ran his fingers through his hair furiously.

"He wants to talk with us." King Damian answered calmly. Gaia stood behind her husband nervously.

"He wants to talk? I thought he already talked with Queen Serenity about everything." Endymion murmured. He didn't like the idea of Diamond spending even a minute in the palace.

"He wants a meeting with us." King Damian answered.

Kunzite winced. He thought about a few ways how this 'meeting' could end. He glanced at Endymion. There was no way it would end well.

The Generals stood behind the Royal couple as bodyguards. King Damian sat behind the table, while Queen Gaia sat beside him. Endymion stood before his parents gloomy.

"There is nothing we can talk about with him." The Prince said.

"Endymion! You will act like the Prince you are! I never told you it is easy to be a King or a Prince. You HAVE to forget your feelings. Be calm and think with a clear head."

Endymion murmured something but calmed down a bit. It was only a meeting. 'If we finish this meeting fast, Diamond doesn't even have to meet with Serenity.' Someone knocked on the door.

"I hope I am not too late. I got lost. Fortunately I met with your lovely wife and she helped me find my way here." Diamond said stepping in the room with Serenity by his side.

Jadeite watched him nonchalant. He was a guard and he learned his lesson. Never show your feelings before strangers. However he really wanted to sigh in frustration. Endymion's calm flew out the door the moment Diamond came in with Serenity. They should be happy if the Prince stays calm enough not to kill the other man.

Endymion's nerves were on edge. The way Diamond held Serenity's hand... He felt how nervous she was through their links. King Diamond cleared his throat.

"We sent a servant to take you here. Didn't he help you?" he asked.

Diamond looked with narrowed eyes at him then smiled. "I thought I will find my way so I sent him away." he answered slowly. He couldn't tell them that he sent the servant away when he saw Serenity alone, now could he?

"I better go now. My friends are waiting for me. If you will excuse me..." Serenity said. She wanted to be as far away from Diamond as she could. She tried to free her hand nervously.

Before Diamond let her hand go, he kissed her hand again.

"It was really nice to meet you, I hope we can... talk again." he said.

Endymion growled. The only thing that kept him from beating the hell out of Diamond was her mother hand on his shoulder.

"I should go too. Shell we Serenity?" Gaia asked smiling at the Princess.

Serenity glanced at her thankfully and the two women left the room.

"Well Endymion, your wife is really the beauty I remembered." Diamond grinned.

Endymion clenched his fists and surprising everyone he answered nonchalantly, "Thank you. What do you want to talk about, Diamond?"

"Oh right in the middle of the story? All right then, you know, I had a negotiation with the Moon when I got a massage that the woman I wanted to marry is already married. You can imagine my surprise. And that she married our enemy, the Prince of Earth? It was so... weird. A few people from the Moon had their questions about this whole marriage too. I couldn't help but think that maybe you kidnapped our dear Princess Serenity." Diamond grinned at Endymion dangerously.

"You-!" Endymion's whole body shook with anger when his father interrupted him.

"As you can see Serenity wasn't kidnapped. I am sure Queen Serenity told you so too." King Damian answered calmly.

"Yes. But we still need to find some solution. Endymion took something that was mine."

"She was never yours!" Endymion shouted with anger.

"Funny. I have a document where they promised Serenity's hand to me."

"Why should I believe this 'document' is real?!"

"Can you proof it is false?" Diamond answered with narrowed eyes.

"Give us the document and we will examine it." King Diamond said.

"Oh, I am so stupid. I forgot to take it with me." Diamond grinned.

Nephrite sighed. This fool was paying with his life.

"I don't want an unnecessary war so I came to talk about this myself."

'Not that you have any chance against our troops.' Zoisite thought.

"I want to know if this document is false or not too. So I will send someone for it. Until then I will stay within the palace, if it is all right."

"No." Endymion answered calmly.

"Excuse me?"

"We have some really important guests from the Moon." The Prince said.

"Oh, I thought this palace is big enough for one more guest." Diamond grinned.

"Unfortunately every guard is busy with keeping them safe. We can't make sure you will be safe too. We do not want anything to happen with you, do we?" Endymion said dangerously.

"That would mean war, you know that right?" Diamond answered fully understanding what he meant.

"We both want to avoid war, so the safest is if you go for your document yourself." Endymion hissed.

"All right. But don't worry. I will be back soon." Diamond answered.

"Well, now that it is cleared..." King Damian began.

"I will go now. Oh, Endymion, could you please show me the way back to my ship? I do not want to get lost again."

Endymion nodded and they walked out the room.

"Kunzite." The King sighed.

"Your Majesty?"

"Tell me my son won't kill him."

"I can't promise anything, your Majesty."

"Send more guards to the teleport-room please," the King said after a while.

"To the teleport-room?" Zoisite asked.

"Diamond's planet doesn't have a teleport. He can't teleport here." Jadeite looked at the King confused.

"Just to be safe." The King murmured.

--

"I know you only want to keep me away from Serenity." Diamond snarled.

"This false document thing is very smart, but it won't work. If I ever see you near her..."

"Is it a threat, Endymion?"

"It is a promise."

"You know, even if the document is false, I have a very good reason to come back to Earth. You have to let me come back unless you want a war and you know it. We will meet very soon." Diamond hissed and stepped it his ship.

Now do not think I am finished with Diamond! He will be back soon enough, but I need him go for a while.

xxxTigerLilyxxx: I was thinking to write a chapter where the King and Endy has a 'between men' talk (:

KogasQueen16, yuskeilove, lilcatfish96, grapesandoats, jupiter2005, Magic713, UFGator1: Again, sorry that Diamond went away so soon, but I promise he will be back soon!

Lily Topaz: Rei will explain everything in the next chapter! And Diamond will be back soon!! You know I think I like Diamond's character too. It made Darien jealous in the anime!

HarryPotter'sgirl17: Yeah I wanted Lita to lose because it was unexpected I guess.
