Chapter 21: Two Journeys
5 months later...
The royal portrait was about to be made. Hitomi insisted that this was a stupid idea, since they'd just have to make a new one when the baby was born. But the artist claimed that he would simply paint the baby in, when it was born. Then, Hitomi complained that she'd look too fat, since she was pregnant, but the painter assured her that he would paint her as she appeared before the pregnancy. So, the work began. It was to be quite formal. Daren and Van both had to wear their royal suits, robes, crowns and all that sort of thing. Van grumbled about having to wear a suit, he hated this formality, for he only had to wear these fancy clothes a few times a year. As heir to the throne, Daren could barely move, he was weighted down with such finery. Hitomi wore her green silk dress, her pendant, and her favorite green silk slippers. She also had to wear many of the royal jewels, and her crown, which weighted her down considerably. Varomi wore a dress the color of her eyes, with lots of jewelry and her crown, she complained that this was too much, but the painter told her that it would set off her "royal essence." The little blonde haired, blue eyed twins wore matching blue dresses, pearls, and their tiny crowns. Van and Hitomi sat on their thrones, with Daren and Varomi standing in between them. One twin sat at each parent's feet. They got in pose and were told not to move a muscle. Varomi's nose itched and Daren's hair wouldn't stay out of his eyes. The twins claimed that they needed to use the privy. Two hours later, they could finally leave, and the portrait artist looked pleased with his work. The twins raced to the outhouse and Varomi scratched her nose to her heart's content. They switched back into their regular clothes and their finery was packed away for the next special event.

The next day, the parents announced that they were taking a second honeymoon. They'd return in a week. They weren't going to bother leaving the children and Leo (who was spending the summer with them) with a babysitter since they had an army of servants and a governess that would keep an eye on them. The parents waved goodbye to their children and ran off to catch their boat. As soon as they were out of sight, Daren said, "Get ready for the most exciting week of our lives." And he grinned at his siblings.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Varomi picked up the pendant her parents had given her. It was made out of the same stuff as theirs, it was just an imitation, but it would have to do. The children had dug through their mom's duffel bag and found many different pairs of Mystic Moon clothing. Leo, Ria, and Ruvan had been invited on the expedition, since their parents had taken similar holidays. Varomi called up the royal wardrobe attendants and everyone told them the "earth outfits" they wanted.
The girls all picked out outfits like Hitomi's outfit when she had first come to Gaea, in different colors. The boys seemed confused at a picture in one of Hitomi's old fashion catalogs.
"How come their pants are dragging all over the ground?" Ruvan asked confusedly.
"I guess it's the style there." Daren replied although he thought it was stupid since dragging pants would slow them down.
"Where are their swords?" Leo asked in protest.
"I guess they don't use swords much." Daren decided in disgust.
"I guess we want these Rudenzo." Daren said in a sad voice, looking down at his identical outfit to his father's.
"Are you sure you want your pants so long Milord?" Asked the royal clothes master in disgust looking at how they dragged so.
"And no belt for your sword?"
"No." Daren said, stroking the sheath of his sword in a pathetic manner.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
A few hours later their clothes had been finished and they tried them on.
"Where is my tail supposed to go?" Aryria asked.
"I guess you should tuck it under your skirt since I don't think many earthlings have tails, or ears that big..." Varomi said pointing at Ria's ears.
"Here, wear this hat, it's stylish and will hide your ears." Said Varomi, quickly putting the white cap on Ria's head, before Ria killed her for saying she had big ears.
"The same goes for you Ruvan..." Daren added, placing a baseball cap on his friend's head.
"Are we sure we want to go to earth?" Leo asked, looking at his baggy pants in disgust.
"C'mon, we have a plan, now we're going to stick to it! I want to see why my mom raves about how great the earth is so much. Besides, maybe 'we'," Daren said pointing to his siblings and himself, "have relatives down there. Let's go!" And he picked up his suitcase and a bag of Gaean money and motioned his group to follow. Varomi wished with her pendant and they found themselves on the Mystic Moon.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
A/N: I know that was short, but the next chapter is going to be about their experiences on Earth (The Mystic Moon)! I think it's going to be funny... R&R! ^_^
