A/N: YES! I am back! Sorry about the delay, I've been busy...okies...on with the story! I have
so many ideas that I can hardly keep the story straight, so if I go in a completely different
direction than you expected...me sowwy! I will explain what Mina's got up her sleeve in the
next chapter...so you'll just have to wait...HAHA!
Please R+R!
Disclaimer: Okies...as I've said before, the characters and most of the setting go to Naoko-sama,
the planets go to the universe and are, as far as I'm concerned, public domain, and the plot
goes to me! (at least I get something!) But, the potato chickens are property of my friends, so
if you really want to know exactly who came up with that...e-mail me and I'll look that up for
ya! ^.~
Ami and Makoto slowly puzzled on similar brainwaves. Eventually they turned there attention to
the Queen who patiently waited for them to figure out an answer to her question.
"No, Your Highness. I don't know why whe left in such a hurry." Ami answered. The Queen gave the
amnesia-suffering senshi a sympathetic look.
"You know, when in your own chamber, you can address me by simply serenity. In fact, I would
much prefer it if you did so." Ami nodded. Serenity continued, "By the way, Endymion and his
generals have just arrived in the teleport booth next to the one Minako used. We are
holding a ball tommorrow to celebrate your recovery. Also, we thought seeing some familiar faces
could help you to regain your memories."
Ami blinked. 'All this for me?' Then something stirred inside of her as she remembered the
arrival of the generals...Lord Zoicite!
"Your---Serenity," Ami corrected herself, "I feel well today. Is there any chance I could go for
a walk? Like around the palace grounds?" She thought, 'If I can see Zoicite, maybe that'll
explain something...but what? ACK! There are so many questions! I should just wait to see him
and see what that does...'
"I would prefer it if you had Makoto accompany you, even if you do feel well. Just in case."
Serenity said somewhat firmly.
"It's fine with me. Makoto?" Ami gave Makoto a pleading look.
"I'd love to. I've been inside all day. Let's go!" Makoto added, "Serenity, we'll try to find
out about Mina-chan, okay?"
The Queen nodded and the two senshi set out for a nice, long walk.

Endymion and his escort entered the Great Hall and waited for the Queen and her daughter to
arrive. Zoicite shifted constantly and Malachite gave him a knowing look. The room was
uncomfortably silent and the five bravest and most reputable men on Earth almost jumped when the
doors suddenly opened. In came Queen Serenity and Usagi, a blonde, smaller version of the Queen.
"Forgive us for the making you wait. I trust we all are familiar with eachother by now, so I'll
skip the formality. The ball is at 7:00, be there and be formal. Or else." She glared at
Zoicite in particular. "Are we clear?"
The generals nodded.
"OK, then, you are free to roam until then."
With that, the generals dispersed and went in different directions. The queen smiled inwardly
watching Zoicite head toward the blue tower.
