Chapter 1
The Sacrifice
-At the palace of Queen Selenity- The queen of the moon kingdom sat quietly on her throne, wondering if her decision had been right. She had negotiated a treaty with Earth, due to the fact that the Moon kingdom was now almost in ruins. It had once been a glittering planet, surrounded by wonder and riches. But now, centuries of war had consumed everything she held dear, except her most precious treasure, her daughter. Had it not have been for the ruthless Negamoon, she would not have had to ask her daughter to take responsibility for HER actions. Her innocent daughter would have to marry a complete stranger, but for the benefit of their people. Serenity had bravely volunteered to marry King Endymion, even though the tears in her eyes were obvious. She had stood her ground and proposed her idea to the Royal Council, who agreed with the plan. If Endymion and Serenity were married, then the Moon and Earth would prosper together, and peace would reign, since no one dared wage war on Earth.
Suddenly, a servant entered the chamber, "Um...ma'am...there's a guest here to see you."
"Who is it?" she replied. She wondered who would be visiting at this late hour. Surely, she had no allies who could help her to avoid the consequences of the treaty, but it was already too late. Her daughter was on the traditional journey to each of the Moon's sister planets. The Senshi on each planet would join her on her way to Earth. They acted as her bodyguards and would never leave her side.
"The man says that he is a friend...he is waiting in the courtyard."
"Let him in then," she said curiously. She stood to straighten her gown and sat down again, but this time, she held her head up regally and proud.
"Queen Selenity? I have come to ask you to rethink the betrothal of your daughter."
Selenity eyed the man and judged his appearance. He had silvery-blue hair- she thought this strange but thought nothing more of it...but...there was something different about his manner and speech. It was obvious that he was of royal blood, but...he seemed oddly familiar...as if she had met him before...she did not remember his face...but perhaps his name...
"What exactly is your concern in the matter? The treaty has already been established and cannot be broken," she said coldly.
"My queen, I BEG you to reconsider. For you see, I, myself, have had a thought of asking your daughter to be mine. You do not need to establish a treaty with the Earth when you can have a treaty with my kingdom. I believe that your daughter will be better off with me than that ignorant pompous Endymion," the stranger pleaded.
"Hmm...He had a point.she could just as easily align herself with this man...but he was still a stranger and she had no idea what his true intentions were." Selenity thought. "What is your name?" she declared.
"I am Diamond, prince of the Dark Moon." He said with a bow.
"PRINCE DIAMOND?!?...But you...your ancestors were banished from the Moon kingdom centuries ago...you have no right to..."
"Your highness...that event was under very different circumstances...Surely we can come to a compromise...I merely wish to have your daughter as my queen. The ancient feud between this kingdom and mine need not be thought of, as a friend, I must ask you to abolish this silly treaty."
"I am sorry Diamond, but this cannot be done. I swore an oath to Endymion that my daughter would bring the alliance of the Moon and Earth together, as it should be. It is already to late to claim her as your queen, for Endymion has already done it. The wedding is taking place in five days, and that is not enough time for you to negotiate with him," stated the queen.
"I do not think you understand your majesty...she was meant to be MINE in the first place. Her body and soul belong to ME...you cannot avoid fate." He said, with a hint of sorrow and anger in his eyes.
"You WILL regret this one day!!!" yelled Prince Diamond, infuriated at the thought of losing his beloved princess.
"Diamond, I did what I thought was necessary. I would rather have my daughter in the protection of Earth than of YOU. Our royal families are forbidden to marry anyways", replied Selenity calmly.
"I don't care. She was MINE and you know it," argued Diamond. Obviously seething with rage because his precious Serenity was being offered to King Endymion, as proof of the treaty between the Earth and the Moon.
"I could have offered her the UNIVERSE...but...but YOU...you took her from me. I WILL have my revenge!" Enraged, Diamond stormed out of the palace.
"This man...his entire family have been evil from the very beginning...They were banned from the Moon when they tried to turn everyone against the royal family...how have they become the rulers of the Dark Moon and why would he want my Serenity so...He seemed almost obsessed with Serenity..." thought the queen. She once again began to stare out the window, thinking of her daughter and the evil man trying to claim her.
Little did she know, Diamond was indeed, obsessed with her daughter. After teleporting to his own palace on the Dark Moon, he sat quietly in the shadows on his throne. "I WILL have her one day...I swear it", he said with an evil smile. Activating a holographic panel, a life-size picture of Princess Serenity appeared. She was extremely beautiful, at the least. Unbelievable blonde hair down to her ankles and blue eyes that mystified all who looked upon her-she was breathtaking. He sipped the blood-red wine in his glass and laughed... * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Hmm...What did you think? It's just the beginning people...next couple chapters should be better (I hope)...since this is my first fanfic and all.

If you're REALLY nice then you'll review too.*extra wide smile*.puuhlleeeeaaaasssseeee?.pretty pleeeeaaassseee with a cherry on top.Check back later for the next chapter okay?.okay then.buh bye!
