The Elements
By: Lena Sauran
Ok people, this is the next chapter in Elements. I know it
took me long eough to get it out but here it is... it's the
setting for every other book so read on.
Disclaimer: I do not, have not, or ever will own any of the
awesome SM series. They belong to a bunch of rich bigwig
people who could probably have me erased from the face of
the Earth if I ever did stake claim on them.
Book One- Jupiter's Angel
Chapter Three- A Chance Meeting
Makoto awoke to the sound of the gardener humming to
himself outside her bedroom window. She rolled out of bed
and went out to her balcony. Underneath her, she saw the
nice old man that had been her family's gardener since
she could remember.
"Good Morning, Steven." Makoto called down.
The old man looked up and smiled at the princess.
"Good Morning, princess. A lovely day, is it not?" he called
back up to her.
"Indeed it is, sir. A lovely day indeed." Makoto called
back, before turning back into her bedroom.
She walked into her closet and picked out a light pink dress
with green accents. After running her bath water, she poured
in the rose smelling bath oils that she had gotten from Ami
for her birthday the year before. Unbraiding her hair, she
lowered herself into the tub of water. She washed her body
and hair and exited the bronze tub. Once dried off, she wrapped
a towel around her body and one around her hair. She left her
bathing quarters and crossed the threshold of her room to
find Julia standing in her doorway. Scowling at her mother,
Makoto continued towards her closet. She put on her under
dressings and tossed on the pink silk dress. Smoothing out
the wrinkles, she exited the closet to see Julia still
standing in her room. She frowned and fiddled with the butt
bow of the gown as she made her way to the vanity. Her
mother sighed and walked across that room and quickly tied
the bow for her daughter.
"I really wish that you would allow the servants to assist
you in dressing, Makoto." Julia said, yanking the bow tight.
"I've told you before, mother, I'm not some porcelian doll
that everyone needs to take care of. I can do things for
myself." Makoto replied with a sigh.
"But it would be so much easier to allow others to assist
you." Julia responded.
"Mother, stop. I can take care of myself. Now if you will
kindly leave me be, I can finish preparing myself for today's
events."
"Makoto, don't take that tone of voice with me…" Julia
started.
"Oh, mother, stop before you give yourself a headache." Makoto
replied.
"I give up, Makoto. I will leave you to your strange fancies."
Julia said, throwing her hands up in the air.
Makoto watched in the mirror as her mother exited her quarters
shaking her head. Makoto put down her brush and sighed. * Mother
just doesn't understand me. I swear it's like we were from
different dimensions!* Looking at her reflections, she picked
up the brush again. She styled her hair into an elaborate
French braid with tendrils around her face. She smiled as she
looked at her reflection and quickly went down to the dining
hall for the morning meal. Today the ambassador from Saturn
was arriving. As far as Makoto knew the princess of the
planet would also be arriving with the ambassador. Princess
Hotaru was reknowned throughout the universe as a small
solitary child who was rarely seen. It was also said that
she had some strange power that frightened most people.
Makoto found the mysterious girl totally intrigueing and
couldn't wait to meet the little princess. The brown-haired
teenager rushed through her breakfest and morning studies.
She was waiting, along with the rest of the Kino clan, when
the ambassadors from Saturn arrived. There was a large man
and a small girl standing on the deck of the transporter. The
girl looked to be no older then ten years old and
had dark, shoulder-length purple hair. She was petite
and Makoto found her absolutely adorable. Makoto waited
until the proper introductions were made to whisk the
girl away from the stuffy aristocrats. She took Hotaru
out of the teleport room and led her to the gardens. The
gardens of Jupiter were known for their extremely large
gardens of pink carnations. They bloomed year around and
seemed to be eternally abundant. Makoto sat down quietly
and waited for the girl to do the same. Hotaru sat down amoung
the pink flowers and stared off at the horizon.
"Hello. My name is Makoto, you can call me Mako-chan. All of
my friends do." Makoto said, sticking her hand out in
greeting.
Hotaru looked at Makoto's hand like it would grow teeth and
bite her if she touched it. "My name is Hotaru." Hotaru replied,
slowly taking the hand extended to her.
Makoto smiled *She is a shy one, isn't she? Wait until she
meets Sere.* Makoto shook her hand and cocked her head to
one side.
"So what do you like to do, Hotaru-chan?" Makoto asked.
Hotaru looked at Makoto as if she had grown a set of horns.
"Excuse me?"
"What do you like to do for fun?" Makoto asked, slowly.
"I like animals and flowers…and I collect lamps." Hotaru
whispered in reply.
"Well, we are amoung a bunch of flowers, would you like some
brought to your room?" Makoto asked.
"Yes, that would be nice." Hotaru replied, quietly.
"OK then, we can pick them later and take them back to your
room. Would you like to go and see the horses?" Makoto asked,
vainly trying to get the girl into a conversation.
"Horses? Like the big horses that try and bite your arm off?"
Hotaru asked, her eyes as big as saucers.
"No… horses like the kind that are sweet and let you ride
them." Makoto replied slowly.
"I'm sorry, Mako-chan. I had a bad pony experience as a
small child." Hotaru said, blushing.
"As a child? How old are you?" Makoto asked, confused.
There was no way that this girl could be older then ten
years of age. She STILL was a young girl.
"I am 16." Hotaru replied.
"What! No way! That is not possible!" Makoto shouted.
"Why not?"
"Not trying to be rude, Hotaru-chan, but you only look
about ten years old." Makoto replied.
Hotaru giggled at the exasperated girl.
"No offense taken, I get that a lot. I'm just very small
for my age. It runs in the family." Hotaru explained with
a smile.
Makoto laughed and stood up. Hotaru followed suit and
followed the brunette to the barn. Makoto walked through
the barn until she reached Mantequilla's stall. To Hotaru's
surprise, Makoto walked into the stall.
"You're just walking in there with him!" Hotaru squealed.
"Her and yes I am. I trust her with my life. Don't I baby?"
Makoto asked, nuzzling the horse.
She undid the lead rope and led Mantequilla out of her
stall.
Hotaru backed up against the wall, " You're bringing her
out, but she looks very happy in her little box. Why don't
you just leave her in there, she looked happy in there."
Makoto laughed and shook her head. She led Mantequilla out
of the barn and tied her to the fence post. She left the
horse there and went to get the comb and brush out of the
tack room. Returning to Mantequilla, she proceeded to groom
the horse like normal. She looked back at Hotaru and smiled
at the shy girl.
"Do you want to try? She won't hurt you." Makoto offered.
"Umm, sure I guess." Hotaru replied.
Makoto smiled and handed the brush to the small girl. Hotaru
took the brush and held it out at arm's length. She slowly
inched her way towards the horse and barely touched the
brush to the horse's coat and brushed it back and forth.
Makoto shook her head.
"No. No. You can't do it like that." Makoto said.
She pushed the small girl towards the horse and took her
hand and brushed the brush in one direction. Hotaru looked
at the horse expecting it to boot her to Mars for brushing
her the wrong way. She smiled slightly as the horse lazily
turned her head back to look at the rookie groomer. The horse
went back to munching on the grass and Hotaru inched her way
closer to the horse, brushing as she went. Makoto smiled as
she watched as the girl hesitantly reached out to stroke the
horse's flank. After the horse was groomed, Makoto put her
out to pasture and returned to Hotaru.
"Hotaru-chan, I have lunch planned with some friends of mine
on the moon. Would you care to join me? We won't be missed
in the diplomatic proceedings, and I'm sure my friend would
love to meet you." Makoto asked.
Sure, that sounds like fun." Hotaru said, "Just let me make
sure that I have leave to." She added as they walked towards
the council hall.
They entered the council hall, and after making sure that
Hotaru had permission to leave, headed to the teleport room.
Makoto placed the cresent moon shaped key into the
transporter computer. The two girls entered the
teleporter beam to reappear on the moon.
Makoto smiled as she saw Serenity and the rest of her friends
waiting for her to arrive.
"Hi, guys. This is my new friend, Hotaru, Princess of Saturn."
Makoto said, motioning to Hotaru, " And this is Princess
Serenity of the Moon. Princess Ami; of Mercury. Princess
Rei; of Mars. And Princess Minako; of Venus." Makoto added
motioning to each of her friends in turn.
Each of the princesses greeted the girl and the group made
their way towards the royal gardens. The royal gardens of
the moon were filled with roses of every color. Hotaru was
astonished at the assortment of flowers that grew there.
Makoto laughed and questioned the girl as to her astounded
expression.
"Not many flowers grow on Saturn, Mako-chan." Hotaru replied,
quietly.
"That's so sad." Serenity sighed, " Flowers are so beautiful,
it must be very sad there."
Hotaru blinked at the blonde's comment and began to giggle.
Serenity looked confused as to why this girl was laughing at
her.
"No offense, Sere-chan. But you've never visited Saturn
before, have you?" Makoto asked.
"As a matter of fact, I've never have visited Saturn."
Serenity replied.
"It has many other beauties besides flowers, Serenity."
Hotaru said.
"Forgive my past comment then, Hotaru-chan." Serenity
apoligized.
Hotaru and Makoto looked at each other and smiled. The
two girls knew that Hotaru was a big hit amoung the
inner princesses.
After having the usual gab fest and eating the awesome food
that was brought to them, Makoto and Hotaru prepared to
return to Jupiter, much to both girls' dismay. Neither were
looking forward to returning to the stuffy arostocratic
proceedings between their planets.
As the girls entered the teleporte room, the machine activated
and five sillouettes appeared in the teleporter beam. Once
the beam cleared, the group of girls saw Endymion and his
court standing on the teleporter deck.
"Endymion!" Serenity squealed, brushing past the inner
princesses and Hotaru.
Serenity threw herself into the arms of the terran prince's
embrace and the girls looked away, slightly embarrasses
at their princesses actions.
Endymion laughed and swept Serenity around in a circle.
Endymion's court looked just as embarrased as Serenity's.
The two groups looked at each other, sizing the other up.
The air was so think that you could cut it with a knife.
Makoto saw Nephrite and smiled. Stepping forward. She
smiled at the other generals.
"Hello, I am Makoto, princess of Jupiter." Makoto said,
shooting a glare at Serenity for not making the proper
introductions of her court.
"Oh! Right! This is Makoto. Minako; Princess Venus. Ami;
Princess Mercury. Rei; Princess Mars. And Hotaru; Princess
Saturn." Serenity said, motioning to each girl in turn.
Endymion smiled, "Nice to meet you all. This is my first
general, Kunzite. Zoisite, 2nd in command. Nephrite. And
last and leastly, Jediete."
Each of the generals bowed as they were called off by
their prince.
Makoto and Hotaru stepped forward, readying to teleport
back to Jupiter.
General Nephrite stepped forward to assist the two girls
on to the platform.
"It seems we meet again, General Nephrite." Makoto said,
smiling.
"Always a pleasure, mi'lady. That is when you're not
running me over." Nephrite replied with a smile.
Makoto blushed as he took her hand and kissed it. She heard
snickers from the friends and sent a glare in their direction.
"It was nice seeing you again, General Nephrite. Maybe we
will meet again sometime soon." Makoto replied, turning
back to Hotaru.
The two girls stepped onto the platform and Serenity pushed
the button with the four sign and the two girls dissappeared
from the platform.
Nephrite stared at the spot where the two girls had stood
moments before. Jediete snapped his fingers in front of
the man's face and laughed.
"Earth to Nephrite. Come in, Nephrite." Jediete said,
laughing.
Nephrite blinked and snapped out of his dazed state. He
glared at the laughing blonde before punching him in the
shoulder. He turned to see the other princesses and generals
staring at him, the blonde girl with the red bow had an evil
look in her eye.
"What?" he asked, confused.
He felt Jediete's hand on his shoulder and looked at him.
"It's okay, Neph. It's normal to fall for a pretty lady." He
teased, mischief sparkling in his cerulean eyes.
Nephrite blushed and walked out of the teleporter room.
Jediete followed closely behind, enjoying Nephrite's torment
emmensely.
"So you like her?" Jediete asked.
"Don't even start, Jediete. I saw the way you looked at Lady
Mars." Nephrite snapped.
The blonde promptly shut his mouth and walked to the
doorway.
"Are you guys coming or not?" Jediete asked the rest of
the group.
"Jediete!?" Endymion shouted, embarrassed.
Nephrite smiled and stared at the stars.
*************************************************************
The famous first meeting between the senshi and the
generals. Will there be love in the air? Watch for the
next chapter of The Elements. Also, I always wondered

Heheh anyways, I would like to thank all the ppl who
emailed me, Kate you are awesome and Bunnie and Michelle
and Trixy. Love ya tons people. And always remember
email is a GOOD thing.
