Episode 5: Telepathcy and Rescue Plans
Chapter #13: The Experiment
They started to walk down the corridor to Serena's room.
"Ahem. And where are you taking all of these girls Serena?" A voice behind them said. Serena turned around. It was Mrs. Haruna.
"Umm... Hi, Mrs. H. Um.. We were kinda going to my room for a private girl chat. You know. Gotta get aquainted with princesses of different Stars. You get more friends that way. Okay? So we'll be going now." Serena said.
"Okay girls. Have fun!" Mrs. Haruna smiled remembering that she had 'girlchats' when she was Serena's age too. They went back to going to Serena's room. They had reached Serena's room. Serena opened her door and it swung open with a big creak. The girls walked into her room. Serena pulled back the bedcurtains and they sat on her bed. Amy took out a scroll and a quill and started listing the points of the strange occurrance. "Well, the first point is that only we princesses heard the voice. The second point is that all our foreheads got hot when we heard it. The third is our tiaras gave off lights when we heard it." Amy said as she wrote them down on the scroll. "Well, my theory is that somehow our tiaras are linked to the voice we heard. Maybe there is a telepathic link between them. I'll study mine and see how it works. It might take some time before I can figure it out but it will be worth it if that cry was serious and we'll be able to help the person who's in trouble." Amy said. She took off her tiara and observed it. After half an hour of obsevating it she put it back on and said, "It's worth some experimenting. Will someone like to help me out?"
"I will," said Michelle.
"Okay, Michelle. I need you to concentrate hard. Think like you're in a lot of trouble and you need help. Don't say anything just use your mind and think of the person you want to help you." Amy instructed. Michelle nodded. She closed her eyes and began concentrating. She thought of when she was lost in the woods near her castle when she was little. Help! Help! She thought. Then she remembered Amara, her best friend coming to save her. Help! Help!She screamed in her mind. Then her Neptune tiara glowed marine blue and her forehead grew hot. Then Amara's Uranus tiara glowed dark blue, her forehead grew hot. Help! Help!Michelle's thoughts flowed into Amara's mind. I'm here Michelle. You can stop calling now. The experiment worked! Amara thought. Both Amara and Michelle stopped.
"It worked Amy! You're a genius!" Michelle squealed. "Thanks." Amy said.
"Well, Hotaru's a princess too. She has a tiara. All princesses do. It must be her. We need to reach her somehow." Serena suggested.
"Chibi." Rina quietly said.
"What's that Rina?" Amy said.
"Chibi. Chibi Chi Chibi Bi Chibi!" Rina said.
"You want to try it Rina? Is that what you're saying?" Amy asked. Rina nodded. "Okay, Rina. I need you to concetrate. How about you talk to me. Okay? Think about you're favorite food. I want you to tell me you're favorite food. Okay?" Amy intructed.
"Chibi." Rina said. Rina closed her eyes. Her tiara glowed a light pink. My favorite food is doughnuts! Rina happily thought. Amy's tiara glowed aquamarine and the happy thought flowed ito her mind. She smiled.
"You know what? Rina likes doughnuts. Right?" Amy said. "Chibi!" Rina said. "You can understand her when she's using telekenesis. Also your forehead doesn't get hot if you're not in trouble." Amy informed everyone. "Well, we know how to work it. Why don't we try to contact Hotaru?" Rini suggested. Rini, who was Hotaru's best friend, wanted to try first. She closed her eyes and started concentrating.
Chapter #14: The Connection
Hotaru... Hotaru... Rini thought. Her tiara glowed pink. Deep in the bowels of the pit, Hotaru sat in a corner, shivering with cold and fright. Hotaru... Rini's voice sounded in her mind.
"Who's talking?" Hotaru said hoarsly as her tiara started glowing purple again. "Who's that? Who are you. Rini? Is that you?"
"Yes, Hotaru! It's me Rini!" Rini said out loud.
"How are you talking to me? You're all the way on Chibi Moon. Unless.. You didn't get kidnapped yet have you?!" Hotaru sounded panicky.
"No, No, No, Hotaru. I'm talking to you telepathically though our tiaras. Are you in trouble?" Rini asked.
"The worst!" Hotaru said. "You remember your 10th birthday party I never came to? Well, I was back on Saturn and I was picking purple Saturn Irises for a present and I was going to have Maho, our wizard, to enchant them to make them last forever. I was on my way to his cottage and well, it's on the shore. I was walking along the beach and I saw this horrendous black ship. There was this big man with a black, upside-down crescent moon chain on his forhead, kind of like our tiaras. He had maroon hair that came up to about a foot above his head. He said his name was Rubeus and that he was a minion to some king named, Beryl. Then, he said 'There's no use resisting! The NegaMoon will evetually get you.' Then, he did something to me. He stretched out his arm and some kind of black light came from it. I couldn't move. He came over to me and I tried to run but I couldn't yell for help or anything." Serena gasped. It sounded just like her dream! "For the past three years I've been lashed with a whip, insulted by the stupid slavedriver, Sapphire, forced to row this ship, fed slop, and threatened to be killed if I keep up the smart-alek bit. I got fed up with it and insulted Sapphire. He threw me into the pit. I've been down here a while and that's the story."
"I understand, that's why you didn't go to my party. We're going to plan a rescue." Rini triumphantly said. "Somehow, we'll save you, Hotaru!"
Chapter #15: The Plan
"The other princesses and I'll come up with a plan, but you have to help us," Rini said. "and don't say anything out loud! We don't want the NegaMoonies to suspect anything. The other princesses are going to listen in too, Ok?" The other princesses' tiaras started glowing.
"Ok. The NegaMoonies probably think I'm dead in here anyway." Hotaru thought.
"Ok. This is my idea." Rini stated. "Where is this ship headed?"
"We're sailing northwest, I think, on the Siren Sea. I heard Sapphire saying that the ship was heading to the Moon Kingdom. That they'd be stopping by to pay them a visit." Hotaru answered. All the princesses gasped.
"Oh no! That's where we are now!" Rini yelled.
"I know. I have a plan! When the ship gets here, I'll get myself caught and then we can escape for sure!" Rini said.
"No, Rini it's too risky! What if we can't get you out?!" Serena shuddered at the thought of her beloved cousin being treated like Hotaru has been.
"We can and will pull this off." Rini said confidently. "I know it!"
