Khepri gazed down at her hand with boredom, bouncing a small ball of energy in her palm. Nothing interesting was happening, on the moon, that is. She sighed softly.
"I wanna go back home. Sure, the moon is a nice place and all, but I prefer Egypt." She rolled her eyes. "'Sides, the people here think I'm underdressed." The small ocelot at her side just yawned and rolled over onto its back.
All of a sudden, someone, or something, started banging on her door. "Open up Khepri, we know you're in there!" She jumped up, as well as Lazuli (the kitty, people), but knew better than to ignore the demand. After all, the person on the other side was clearly the head of the guards.
Without too much hesitation, she did as told. But right when she opened the door, someone pinned her down to the ground. 'That was fast." She shoved the person off, glaring at them. "What did I do?" The young man stood up, scowling.
"You are under arrest for endangerment of the princess!" Khepri, needless to say, was moderately surprised.
"Uh…okay…explain what 'endangerment' is. I don't remember ever harming her since I've been here."
"You were seen attacking her in the forest early this morning." She groaned.
'I was only training her! Dammit, what did I do to deserve this?' "Serenity specifically asked me to teach her how to defend herself against an enemy."
"Right. Come with me, and the Queen will decide your punishment." Khepri had no choice but to do so, with Lazuli growling softly as she followed.

The young sorceress glared at Queen Selenity. "I don't appreciate being accused of something I didn't do." Selenity glared right back.
"Luna saw you attack Serenity, who came back later with several bruises and cuts. How can you explain yourself?" Khepri sighed with agitation.
"I was teaching her how to defend herself, should someone attack when there's no one else around!"
"But one of the senshi is always with her!"
"Believe that if you want." Khepri smirked. "But I'm not going to let you accuse me of a false crime." With one fluid motion, she tore her hands away from the man holding her captive, and stepped away from him. Selenity stood up, glowing softly.
"I truly don't want to do this, with you showing so much ability, but I must." Khepri's eyes narrowed, her smirk disappearing.
"What are you talking about?" The ginzushou (I dun think I spelled that correctly…) appeared in the Queen's open hands. She whispered something under her breath, and there was an almost blinding flash of light. When it died down, the motionless form of the sorceress was on the floor. The crystal pulsed an angry purple, before fading back to silver.
"It is done."
