---Bakura---
He threw the partly eaten apple from one of his hands to the other his thoughts else were, like on the odango haired blonde that had been there only minutes before. "Why did I kiss her, am I falling for her, gees Bakura, get a hold on yourself, you're a tomb robber, you're not supposed to fall in love. But she is pretty though and unmarked, she obviously doesn't belong to the Pharaoh or his brat of a son."
---Flashback---
Bakura was dragged kicking and biting to the throne room where he saw the Pharaoh, his wife and his son flanking his sides sitting upon three golden thrones at the top of a golden flight of stairs. He'd been in the dungeon since yesterday and was now to be sentenced to either death or life in the dungeon. Then he noticed those by the thrones, three men and three women, five of who wore the attire of high-ranking servants and one man wore purple robes. Since the Pharaoh was at his seat he obviously was the high priest.
One girl had long black hair and purple eyes, a blonde boy with matching eyes stood beside her. Then came a boy with messy blonde hair and brown eyes, a girl beside him with brown and red hair and auburn eyes. There was one more girl and she made Bakura have an intake of breath just by looking at her. Long blonde hair lay in two meatballs atop her head, golden streams flowing down at her sides. Brilliant cerulean blue eyes sparkled beneath golden bangs.
"Tomb robber, we find you guilty of robbing the tomb of…" Bakura lost interest as the rest of his trail went on, he knew already that they were going to condemn him to death and that he wouldn't get a say in it. To him it was just some kind of celebration so that the people could awe the Pharaoh even more. "Kill him."
"No stop," came a soft feminine voice, Bakura's head snapped up as he saw the blonde girl in front of the standing Pharaoh. The room had gone completely quite. "You call that a trial, he didn't even get a say in it, that's not a trial that's a speech," she protested.
"He deserves to die," the Pharaoh argued, he liked the girl who he thought was called Usagi.
"You're wrong, no one deserves to die, no matter what crimes they may have committed, death is something that comes when it's ready, it is not something that humans are to be in charge of," she protested. Bakura's eyes were wide now; no one had ever defended him ever.
"Fine, take him to the dungeons," the Pharaoh said in huffy voice, sitting down in his chair.
Serenity smiled brightly and clasped her hands bowing down low, "Thank Lord Pharaoh, life, health, strength be to you," she raised her head eyes shining with happiness. The Pharaoh smiled back and Serenity turned to look at Bakura as he was hauled to his feet. Their eyes met and she mouthed, "Goodbye." He scowled back making her pout though he didn't see it for he was already out the door.
---The present, Bakura's cell---
Bakura finished the apple and threw the core to the rats. "Maybe…"
---Planet Venus---
Viinasu was standing in a circle with Yupiteru, Maakyurii, Marusu, Nepuchuun and Tennou, the blonde's head suddenly snapped up. "Is something troubling you Viinasu?" questioned Nepuchuun politely.
"I just…. from Earth…I felt a pang of emotion," gasps were heard at this proclamation. "I good one…if I'm not very much mistaking it's," her lips curved into a childish grin.
"What is it?" asked Yupiteru excitedly.
"I think...it was love," Viinasu said with pride crossing her arms and nodding her head.
"Then we must go to Earth fast in case Hime is in danger," exclaimed Tennou in worry.
"Oh don't worry so Tennou-chan," said Nepuchuun reassuringly, "but really we must hurry to Earth that is for certain." The remainder present nodded and they all proceeded to the transport temple in order to travel to Earth.
---Planet Earth, Egypt---
Serenity was wondering jauntily through the sandy streets of Egypt, she'd just reached the outskirts of the capital and gazed out at the blank sand. She had found that the Egyptians didn't like the moon for they had been taught that the men were cruel and the women cheated on the men. When Usagi had heard this she had had a hard time restraining herself she was so angry, she knew perfectly what went on in the kingdom, she had disguised herself as a villager and explored. The people of the moon were nothing like what the Egyptians believed but she didn't know how to change their beliefs.
Suddenly, in a swirl of colours, from the sand emerged six figures, they were standing in a circle and appeared to have morphed right through the sand. Taking a closer look Serenity suddenly gasped, suddenly recognising the six figures. "Guys, you're here," she called running towards them as fast as she could. Yupiteru turned at the voice of her friend and almost fell to the floor as Serenity ran straight into her arms.
"Hime," she gasped hugging her friend tightly, the others crowded round and then Serenity noticed they were all still in their princess robes. Taking hold of Yupiteru's hand she lead them all to an oasis she knew of where they would be alone.
"Hime, what's wrong?" asked Tennou worriedly.
"Don't call me that," Serenity said waving her hands in front of her widely.
"Why Serenity?" Maakyurii asked.
"Because I'm disguise, I'm called Usagi and you guys have to get out of those things," she said desperately, gasping for breath.
"What?" Nepuchuun exclaimed in astonishment.
"Egypt doesn't trust the moon and because of its allegiance to the planetary alliance Egypt doesn't trust the planets either," she said calming slightly.
"Well then we're going to have to do the same as you eh Usagi-chan?" Viinasu said grinning.
"But how are we to change our robes, we brought nothing and are unable to return until Sataan and Puruutoo arrive," Maakyurii contemplated.
"That's my job," came a slender, female voice, the group turned and were unable to see anything until Serenity looked down and came eye to eye with a blue eyed, black cat.
"Luna-sama," she exclaimed running to her loyal companion and hugging her tightly.
"Hai, Serenity-hime, now, your change of robes is up to me," Luna said nodding her head as Serenity released her.
"Demo Luna-sama, ikaga?" Serenity asked as the other six just stood there and listened.
"The Luna Pen," Luna stated proudly doing an amazing back flip and catching a pink and gold pen shaped stick in her mouth. Serenity took it gently form her friends mouth and examined it carefully, running her fingers gently over it.
"Luna-sama, what does it do?" Serenity asked politely looking intently at the cat on whose forehead was clearly the mark of the moon.
"It has the ability to change your outward appearance, be it cloths of looks or otherwise," Luna explained sitting down.
"Really, cool!" Serenity explained tossing the pen into the air and catching it again. "So how's it work?" she asked turning it over and over again in her slender fingers.
"Hold it up and say 'Disguise Power' then say what you want to become and there you have it," Luna answered nodding.
"Oh, okay, guys, take my hand," the other six nodded at Serenity's request. Maakyurii took Serenity's hand; Marusu took hers and then came Yupiteru, Viinasu, Nepuchuun and finally Tennou. Checking everyone was linked Serenity held up the pen and shouted, "Disguise Power, change us into casually robes girls," all the girls sweat dropped as they were engulfed in light at the choice of words their hime had used.
When the light disappeared all the girls where wearing dresses that reached their knees and had no sleeves just thick straps. Each had a rope around their waist from which dangled two strings on the end of which were tassels. Each wore a pair of soft slippers the same colour as their dresses. Serenity had a white dress with a gold rope. Maakyurii had a light blue dress with a dark blue rope. Marusu had a red dress with a purple rope. Yupiteru had a light green dress with a rose pink rope. Viinasu had an orange dress with a bright yellow rope. Nepuchuun had an aqua coloured dress with a dark blue rope. Tennou had on a navy dress with a silver rope.
Serenity beamed when she saw herself and her friends, she was wearing what she had been wearing before though but she didn't mind. "Now, what to call you all," Luna pondered.
"I got that covered," said Serenity beaming. The other six present each raised an eyebrow in question. "Okay well, Maakyurii will be called Ami, Marusu Rei, Yupiteru Makato, Viinasu Minako, Nepuchuun Michiru and Tennou Haruka."
"Well I'm okay with that," Makato stated crossing her arms and glancing around at her fellow Himes'.
"Yeh, me too," exclaimed Viinasu beaming.
"Em hm," Maakyurii said nodding.
"I don't hold a grudge," said Michiru looking around, Tennou and Rei simply nodded in agreement.
"Great, then it's settled, come on guys, I'll show you around," Serenity exclaimed taking Maakyurii's hand and pulled her along, more like dragged. The others followed laughing as Luna took up the rear.
Eventually Serenity led the group back to the palace where she was confronted by the palace guards. "I'm sorry miss, but who are…um…they?" the tall man clad in armour asked.
"Oh don't worry silly," Serenity giggled making the guard blush, "they're just my friends."
"I'm sorry, but they cannot enter without the Pharaoh's permission," the guard explained.
"Then I'll just sit right here until he comes," Serenity said resolutely, nodding her head and plopping herself down on a near by bolder crossing her arms.
"Uh…okay," said the guard walking into the palace and going to find the pharaoh.
"You know Serenity-chan, you do the strangest things," said Viinasu grinning and cuddling her friend. A few minutes later the guard arrived and since the girls were Serenity's friends he allowed them entrance. But not after making them swear oath not to cause trouble, at this everyone looked at Viinasu who, although a fine princess, had to be the impish of the lot of them.
Well, did you like it?
Warning, will be a bit angsty in a few chapters, you see Yami's mum's gonna die!
Aww, pore thing, will Serenity revive her too? Who knows? I do! ^_~
R&R onagi!
