Ch.3
Later that night
Endymion walked into his bedroom and saw Selenity sitting on the bed with her
head in her hands, as though she was crying. He walked over and sat down by and put his
arms around her, trying to comfort her. She looked up at him, stood up, and than slapped
him. She wasn't crying. She looked extremaly angry. He gave her a confused look.
"How dare you put this charade on for so long. you dare cheat on me, and to make
that offense worse, with one of my Senshi. I do not believe the audcity of this. You do
not deserve to be King. You have broken the Law time and time again. And why did you
hide for so long you did not love me? I could have taken it. The fact that you hid this for
so long is unacceptable. And then turned to another woman. I am shocked. I thought
more of you Endymion. And tommrow you are to be up at and ready for an annoucement
to the Kingdom by 7. Now get you a pillow and blanket and get the hell out of our room.
Go sleep somewhere else." she said, Endymion stood there in complete and utter shock.
He could not believe that Minako had told. He stood up and looked at her.
"Selenity... Please let me explain."
"You've done enough explaing. Now get out of my room. You are not welcome
here." she said and walked over and threw his pillow at him. He caught it and just turned
out of the room. As he was walking down the hall he saw Minako step out of her room
and just looked at him.
"I thought you weren't going to tell her Minako. She wasn't supposed to find
out."
"She deserved to know. You had no intentions of telling her, so I did. You're
getting and going to get what you deserve." She said and then turned and walked back into
her room and shut the door. He cotinued to walk and went and slept in another chamber.
The next morning Rei and Minako were sent to go retrive Setsuna from her post.
She came without problem. She was taken into a private room where all of the Senshi,
Selenity, and Endymion waited. She was escorted to the center of the room where
Selenity stood and Rei and Minako went and stood to the side. Setsuna looked at Selenity
and then Endymion with a worried look on her face.
"Setsuna, you betrayed me. You had an affair with my husband behind my back.
You even got pregrent with his child. This is an offense that is not forgivable. You are
hence forth stripped of your title of Senshi Pluto. You are banished from the Earth, and
every other planet excluding Pluto. I will allow you to live there considering you are the
Plutoian princess. I will also allow you to keep your child. If it is a girl, you will train her.
When she is old enough she may come here and become a Senshi.If your child is a boy,
you may do what you wish with him. If you wish to send him here for schooling or
anything at all you may. Your child will not suffer for your mistake. Do you understand
me Setsuna?" Selenity said. Setsuna looked down at the ground.
"Yes Your Highness. You made everything crystal clear. I will hand in my Senshi
articles by the end of the day." Selenity looked at her and considered what she said
before speaking again.
"Good now go. I am through with you." Setsuna ran out of the room. "Now
Endymion I can deal with you. You obviously don't love me anymore and wish to get out
of this marriage. That is fine by me. I have arranged to have the marriage annaled this
afternoon. You are free to do what you wish. But I do wish you would stay on Earth, to
comtinue help raising Small Lady. It is your choice. I'm not forcing you to do anything.
Now if you will excuse me, I need to go to my room and arrange some things for the
peace conference." Selenity finished and walked out of the room. Everyone in the room
stood there looking after Selenity. After five minutes Rei ran out of the room. She went
to Selenity's room. Her hunch had been right. Selenity was laying on her bed crying. Rei
walked over and sat down by her.
"Some peace treaty huh?" Selenity peaked at her and sat up. She began crying
harder when Rei said that.
"It's not fair. I really do love him. I thought we were supposed to live happily
forever after. To rule with kindness and good judgement. All those things Pluto told us
about. He can't have fallen out of love with me. It's not possible. It has to be a mistake.
I'll prove Minako wrong. She has to be wrong right? Any minute now, he'll come in here
and say he really does love me. You'll see. He really does love me deep down. I know it.
We're kindred spirits." she cried out. Rei sighed and wrapped her arms around Selenity.
She could tell she was hurting badly. She had an idea on how to fix things, but she wasn't
sure if she should. She didn't want to interfere. Perhaps she would. She shouldn't though,
but when did she ever do what she should do? Selenity was crying into her shouldar.
"Of course he still loves you baby. Who wouldn't? You are sweet, smart, and
beautiful. You just need some sleep and to give him time to think about how much he
really loves you. Lay down." She had Selenty lay down and covered her up. she layed
down next to her and began to lightly sing a lullaby to her.
"I don't want to say too much for fear of being misconstrued or maybe for fear of
being understood all too clearly so here's your warning -- flowers sometimes bloom quite
literally, unfurling in the dewfall to kiss mother sky good morrow. And sometimes
wolves change their sheep clothes for pinstripes."(AN: this is verse 2 of the turning from
Samhain) By the time she had finished with her song, Selenity was fast asleep. Rei stood
up and looked down at her.She would do her spell. She must hurry though. It must be
done before the anallment goes through. She went and prepared for her spell. She
crushed the rosemary, found the candles, and lit the incense. Rei sat down and began to
chant.
"Sacred Fire, ancient Gods of the Cosmos, heed my call. I pray for all things to be
as they should...."
Later...
Endymion was packing up his bags when a strange feeling came over him. He sat
down, the feeling of electricty and passion running up his spine. He could feel a love that
he thought had died spark again. His love for Selenity was begenning to bloom once
again. He couldn't believe what he was feeling but his love for Selenity was stronger than
before. He stood up and looked around.
"Why would I want to leave? I have a beautiful wife, a wonderful home, and an
adorable daughter. I have to go apologize to Selenity." he promptly walked out of the
room to Selenity's room. He found her still asleep in her bed. He walked over and gently
shook her. She opened her eyes and rolled over to look at him.
"Selenity before you say anything let me say what I came in here to say. I know I
hurt you, and I know I did wrong but I love you and even more now than ever. Please
take me back. I will do anything to make it up to you. Please just take me back." he
looked at her with a pleading look in his eyes. She sat up and looked him directly in the
eye trying to figure out weather or not he was lying. The look in his eyes answered her
question. He looked sad and pathathic. His look though was sincinere. She looked down
and then back up.
"I... I accept your apologize. You seem sincinere. But... If you ever... and I mean
EVER do that to me again, I will rip every bone in your body out and give it to Artemis
and Luna. Understand?" He looked at her bewildered. He simply nodded in amazement.
"I understand. I will never hurt you again. I swear it. Just please forgive me."
Selenity nodded. The couple embraced. Endymion crawled on the bed next to her and
laid down, still hugging her.
Meawhile...
Setsuna was preparing to leave when she felt the first pains. At first she ignored
them, thinking they were nothing. As the day went on, the pains worsened. By dusk, the
pains were unbareable. Setsuna had begun to scream for help. Noone heard her due to her
being in the Gate of Time. Her screams became more frightened and panicked as the
night went on.
The next morning Haruka had been sent to make sure she had left. When she
arrivied, she found Setsuna unconcious in a puddle of blood. Haruka ran over and picked
her up and carried her back to the palace. All of the Senshi gathered around her, worried
about Setsuna. She was taken to the doctor. The doctor examined her and declared she
had a miscarriage. She needed some sleep, but she would be fine.
Later that day, Setsuna had awaken and heard the others talking about her
miscarriage. She knew immediately. She walked out onto the balcony and stood there for
a few moments.
When the others walked in, they saw her tranformation pen, her tailsmen, and
fuku laying on the bed alongside a note. Endymion walked over and picked up the note
amd read it aloud.
"Everybody, Thank you for your kindness. Haruka thank you for saving me in the
Time Gate. I have left for Pluto to live there for the rest of my life. I wish you all the best
of luck with your lives. You will all be happy in the future. Selenity, I apologize for
betraying you, Endymion it never should have happened. I hope you two are very happy
together. You have always deserved each other. Good luck in the future. Enjoy your new
surprise. You will like him very much. Sincerely, Setsuna. May this time never repeat
itself."
