Ch.4
"Sooooooooooooooooooooooo?" Elena was asking Rini about the night before. She was in her bedroom while Rini was combing her hair. "Elena, i think it unappropriate that i should discuss this at the time--" she was interrupted. "Rini, think happy thougts. As of now this is the only happy thought that actually exists," Elena said. "Alright....it was fun," rini returned to combing her hair. "FUN? That's IT? Come on, Rini there's gotta be more!" Elena pressed. Rini found a smile creeping on her face. "Weeeeeellll, he almost did kiss me..." she said dreamily. A spark lit Elena's eyes. "...until that *tupid thunderbolt almost killed me," she finished. Elena started laughing. Rini just glared.

"Mother is this necessary?" Thomas was trailing after Mina in her potion room. "Yes, Thomas it is," she replied. "So you expect me to protect Serenity from all danger? Mother tell me--" "Thomas, it is the only way! Neo Queen Serenity specifically asked for you! The child needs protection!" Mina replied, her blue eyes glaring. Thomas looked puzzled at first, but quickly recovered. "Ohhhhh! Goodness, mother, i thought you wanted me to protect the queen, not the princess!" Mina laughed out loud. "The queen! Why would the queen need another knight to guard her? Aside from the 200 guards in her palace..." she trailed off. "Okkkkkay,mom i know," Thomas interrupted. "You begin your job tomorrow, dear. Now call Ginny, it's time for her potions lesson!" she ordered. Thomas bowed. "Yes, milady," he said. Then he left the room in search for his sister.

"Darien, i don't know what to do about Rini," Serena said. Darien turned from his desk to look at his wife. "Serena, there is nothing WE can do. Only comfort her and tell her everything will be alright," Darien replied. "Zuleika! Zulei--oh, i forgot. Simon!" serena called. A servant boy ran into the room. "Get the princess, i have something to tell her," she said. The boy nodded. "Yes, your highness."
With Rini present in the room, Serena coudn't help but be nervous. "Rini, since Zulei--i mean since your nanny is gone, we've come to a decision that she has to be replaced, for your--" "I don't need another nanny," Rini said brusquely. "But dear!" Serena insisted. "Serena i must agree. Rini is 18 now, and should be responsible over her own things. Anyways, she still has her handmaidens. And with Sir Thomas coming--" Darien(again) was interrupted. "Thomas is coming?" Rini asked, suprised. "My.my, many people are being interrupted this morning. yes, Rini, SIR Thomas is coming. I've appointed him as your personal bodyguard,he is to be with you at all times," she said. Rini looked puzzled. "But mother i am-" "Rini, we've just declared war on the Pi-Si peole, and you need a bodyguard! What would we do if you were to be attacked or even worse kidnapped?" Rini sighed in resignation.

"OOOOOOOOooooo!" Ginny teased,as she learned of Thomas' new occupation. "Ginny, please," Thomas said. "Thomas gets to spend time with Rini! Ahhhhhhhh....love is in the air," Ginny said. "Speaking of love,Ginny, get back to mixing your love potion!" Mina ordered. Thomas smirked. "You too, Thomas!" Ginny, however,continued teasing poor Thomas the rest of the day.

"Are you ready for this?"
"Very ready, your highness."
"Good. I hope our plan carries out, after all the work i have done."
"Yes,highness."
"First, i will take the princess, then injure the queen,wound the king, and take him away."
"You find the king...attractive,highness?"
"Of course i do! Being Beryl's cousin, i guess it runs in the family."
"(sigh) yes highness."
"Prepare the essential things, and be gone!"
"yes highness."
