Recap:
James let out a sigh.
"James...what have you done." he said to himself as he shook his head.
He hung his head
down and a tear fell from his eye. "I'm so sorry." he said, as more
tears fell from his eye.
"I never should've come back." With that, he picked up his bags and
solemnly walked
away.

Lindsey picked up the daily newspaper that laid on her bed and stared
at it with evil eyes.
There, on the front page was a picture of Princess Selenity and a picture
of Prince
Endymion. In large print, the headlines read "Star Crossed Lovers to
be Married!"
Lindsey snapped her fingers and suddenly, Selenity's picture was burned.
Lindsey let out
a satisfied smile. She ripped out the picture of Endymion and smiled
dreamily.
"One day, Endymion. You'll be mine, no matter what." Lindsey said, pressing
the picture
against her chest. "One day."
// At the Moon Kingdom \\
Selenity sat on the soft leather chair, waiting for Rei, Ami, Makoto,
and Minako to come
out of the dressing room. Selenity and the senshi had been at Selena's
Bridesmaid Store
for hours, trying on bridesmaids dresses. Selenity looked at her diamond
encrusted watch
that Endymion gave her for her birthday. She sighed.
"Come on, guys!! Hurry up!! I want to see you guys in the dress!!" Selenity whined.
"Okay! Okay! We're going!" one of the girls said. Finally, Ami stepped
out of her
dressing room. She had on a light blue dress that reached to floor.
It was an elegant dress
that had spaghetti straps that had a sash that draped across the chest
and down the back.
Makoto came out in a deep forest green dress that had one inch wide
straps a rose
embroidery along the hem. Rei came out in a crimson red ballgown that
had one strap
with a rose on it. Lastly, Minako came out in a light orange, almost
peach colored dress
that was strapless with princess seams. Selenity looked at each of
them, wondering which
to choose.
"I don't know which to choose. They're all so beautiful. What do you
guys think?"
Selenity asked.
"They're all very nice." Ami stated.
"Yeah, I like all the dresses." Minako said.
"It's hard to pick just one dress because they're all so beautiful." Rei said.
"Yeah. It's almost impossible to pick just one." Makoto said. Selenity
had a confused
look on her face.
"I have no idea what to pick." Selenity said with a heavy sigh.
"Oh well. We still have a whole month to choose!" Minako said.
"Not exactly, Minako. A month may seem like a lot now, but it goes by
really fast. The
next thing you know, it'll be the wedding day!" Selenity said matter-of-factly.
The senshi
just stared at her weirdly. Selenity cleared her throat. "Okay. I think
that's enough for
today. We'll go to another store tomorrow. I think we tried on everything
in this store!"
Selenity said, letting out a little laugh. The senshi smiled and giggled
along with her.
"Hey! I have an idea! Let's go look for Selenity's dress!!" Minako suggested.
"Yeah! Why don't we? It'll be fun!" Rei chimed in. Selenity hesitated.
"Oh, I don't know." Selenity said with uncertainty.
"Oh, come on. We don't have much time! A month may seem like a lot now,
but it goes
by really fast. The next thing you know, it'll be the wedding day!"
Makoto said playfully.
The senshi laughed. Selenity giggled.
"Oh, all right." Selenity said. The senshi cheered and gave each other
high fives. Selenity
smiled while shaking her head. After the senshi changed into their
regular clothes, they all
went to the nearest bridal store.
// Somewhere near the Moon Kingdom \\
James let out a heavy sigh. He ran his fingers through his messy blond
hair, thinking
about Selenity and Queen Serenity.
"Maybe I shouldn't have left. Maybe I should've stayed. I'm doing the
exact same thing I
did when Selenity was a baby. What kind of father and husband am I?"
James asked
himself. He let out another heavy sigh. "What's wrong with you, James?
You're such an
asshole. How could leave Selenity and Serenity like that, again?" He
stayed silent for a
moment. "That's it. I have to go back. Today!" With that, James picked
up his bags and
headed out the door.
// Later that night \\
Selenity and Endymion were on the couch together. Selenity sat comfortably
in the corner
of the couch, reading a book while Endymion rested his head on Selenity's
lap. There was
a peaceful silence that surrounded them, until the doorbell rang. Endymion
opened his
eyes, disturbed by the doorbell.
"Who disturbs my slumber?" Endymion said playfully. Selenity let out a slight giggle.
"Oh, shut up." Selenity said in response. She placed her book on the
coffee table and got
up to answer the door. As she approached the door, she began to get
chills for no reason.
'Weird.' she thought to herself. Selenity opened the door and gasped.
There, in front of
her was a handsome, tall, blond haired man. "Oh my god!" Selenity said
in complete
shock and surprise. "It's you!!" Selenity said. The blond haired man
smiled. Selenity
suddenly had a wide smile on her face. "Andrew!! I can't believe it!!
It's really you!!"
(SN: If anyone forgot, Andrew is Darien's friend in the U.S. version
of SM. I forgot what
Andrew's name in Japanese is. ^^;;;) Selenity hugged him. Andrew returned
her warm
hug.
"It's good to see you again, Selenity." Andrew said with a smile
on his face. Selenity
smiled, her face beaming with happiness.
"It's good to see you too! Come in, Andrew! Come in!" Selenity said,
leading him into
the room where Endymion was. Endymion stood upon seeing Andrew.
"Hey! Andrew!! Good to see you! How have you been?" Endymion greeted.
"Oh, everything's great. Everything's just great." Andrew said. "And
I heard the great
news!!" Andrew said. Endymion had a confused look on his face.
"What great news?" Endymion asked.
"What?!?! You don't know that you're getting married???" Andrew asked
with a hint of
sarcasm in his voice.
"Ohhhh....so that's the great news you're talking about!" Endymion said
sarcastically.
Andrew gave him a weird look. "I'm just kidding, Andrew." Andrew wiped
the weird
look off his face and replaced it with a smile.
"Congrats, you two!! You two must be very happy." Andrew said.
"Do you have to ask? Of course we're happy." Endymion said, pulling
Selenity closer to
him. Selenity smiled and looked up at Endymion.
"Yes. We are very happy." Selenity said.
"That's great. I'm so happy for you guys." Andrew said.
"Thanks, Andrew." Selenity said. "Please. Have a seat." Selenity said.
"I'll be right
back." Selenity headed for the kitchen. Endymion sat down and Andrew
sat in a seat
across from him. In no time, Selenity was back with tea and cups and
a plate of tea
biscuits.
"So, Andrew. How have you been? Haven't heard from you in a long time!"
Endymion
said.
"Oh, I'm doing great. I'm running my own business and it's doing great.
I couldn't be
happier." Andrew said.
"That's wonderful!" Selenity said.
"So...am I invited to the big day?" Andrew asked before anyone else could say anything.
"Of course you are!" Selenity said, giggling after she finished her sentence.
"We just haven't sent out the invitations yet." Endymion said while
sweatdropping.
Selenity let out an embarrassed giggle.
"It's not that we haven't sent them out yet. We just haven't gotten
them yet. But we'll be
sending them out soon!" Selenity said on a positive note. Andrew let
out a chuckle. He
took a sip of his tea.
"Well, I better get going now. Parents want me back before 11:30 pm."
Andrew said,
embarrassed.
"Wow. You're old enough to buy your own house and you still have a curfew?"
Endymion asked. Andrew's cheeks soon became a shade of pink and red.
Selenity nudged
Endymion in the side with her elbow.
"You'll have to excuse Endymion. He's old enough to get married, but
he still acts like an
obnoxious child." Selenity said. Endymion glared at her. Selenity just
smiled back at him.
Andrew chuckled at their childish play.
"I don't think it's just Endymion that acts like a child." Andrew said.
Selenity gasped.
Endymion smiled and stuck out his tongue at her. Shades of pink quickly
crept onto
Selenity's cheeks. Soon, they all laughed out loud. Soon, Andrew left.
After Andrew was
no longer in the house, Selenity and Endymion returned to the couch,
returning to their
previous state, before the doorbell rang.
// Somewhere near the palace \\
James stood at the gates of the palace. His heart began to race as it
did the first time he
was the gates. He never thought that he'd come back here. He drew in
a deep breath.
"This is it, James. You've come this far, you can't turn now. You have
no choice. Come
on, James. You can do this." James said quietly to himself. James took
in another deep
breath and slowly made his way towards the doors of the palace. With
every step he took,
his heart pounded faster and faster. Soon, he was at the steps of the
palace. His heart was
pounding against his rib cage, ready to burst. He slowly reached for
the doorbell. He
placed his finger on the doorbell. His breathing heavy, he cautiously
and slowly pushed
the doorbell.
// Inside the palace \\
Selenity and Endymion sat together on the couch, enjoying each other's
company.
Endymion sat up.
"What's the matter?" Selenity asked.
"I'm just going to get something from your room. Don't worry about me.
I'll be right
back." Endymion said. He smiled at her and placed a kiss on her forehead.
Selenity
smiled. Endymion made his way up the staircase while Selenity turned
her attention back
to her book. Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Selenity put her book down
and made her way
toward the door. She opened the door. She gasped.
"Oh my god." Selenity managed to blurt out.
"Selenity!!" James exclaimed. He took Selenity into his arms and hugged
her. Selenity
just stood there, frozen like a statue. When Selenity snapped back
to reality, she pushed
him off of her.
"Who are you?" Selenity asked while backing away from the door.
"Selenity! I'm here now! I'm here again. Don't you remember me?" James
said. Unaware
(at the moment) that Selenity did not recognize him, he walked towards
her, wanting to
hug her and hold her in his arms once again.
"Stop. Stop right there. Who are you?" Selenity said with fright in
her voice. She backed
up a little more. Suddenly, James stopped in his tracks. It finally
hit him that Selenity
truly did not recognize him.
"No. This can't be! No! How could you not remember me?!?!?" James screamed.
Selenity became more frightened and tears started to flood her eyes
almost
instantaneously.
"Please! Stop! Just go away! I don't know you!! Please!!" Selenity said
as tears began to
fall from her crystal blue eyes.
"Oh, Selenity. My poor baby. Don't cry. Everything will be alright."
James said. He
pulled Selenity close to him and hugged her tightly, not wanting to
let his daughter go.
"Stop! Let go of me!!" Selenity cried out. More tears began to fall
from her eye.
Suddenly, James felt a cold hard knock in the face. The next thing
he knew, he was on the
floor. James flickered his eyes open to see Selenity embraced by a
tall, muscular man that
he had never seen before.
"Don't you dare lay another hand on Selenity, you filthy bastard!" Endymion
yelled.
James just glared at Endymion and wiped away the blood that stained
his lips. James
stood up. Endymion took a step back and embraced Selenity tighter.
"Just who the hell do
you think you are?" Endymion yelled.
"What's it to you?" James said, cradling his cheek from Endymion's cold hard punch.
"You bastard! If you don't tell me who the hell you are, I'll just have
to force it out of
you!" Endymion said threateningly. James gave an icy glare to Endymion
and crossed his
arms.
"Well...if you must know.....I'm Selenity's father."
