~PALACE SITTING ROOM/AFTER AWARDS CEREMONY~
"You really didn't have to thank me up there the way you did,father," Rini protested annoyingly,as she sat herself down on a cushioned chair. Darien laughed. "If it hadn't been for your tear,Rini,i wouldn't be here right now," he replied warmly. "And it was awfully nice of you to appint Helios as a noble here on Crystal Tokyo," Rini continued. "He deserved it," Darien said.
Serenity smiled at her daughter, "Now,back to different discussions. Who are you going to wed?" Darien started from his seat. "What are you talking about,m'dear?" he inquired. "Well! It's quite obvious,isn't it? Prince Thomas and Lord Helios are both in love with your daughter!" Serena replied. "And when did this all happen,may i ask?" Darien asked through gritted teeth. "Have you forgotten our past life on this earth? Rini and Helios have....they...well,they had something going on before he left! And when we were all reincarnated to live in this present,and when Rini was born,she knew Thomas since her christening! They've been making sheep's eyes at each other ever since Thomas came to her debut ball!" Serena heatedly replied. "My daughter is too young to wed. She still hasn't finished her studies," Darien put in. "I know that,darling,but who will she be engaged to? I knew it was a mistake from the start when we disagreed with Luna to betroth her to a prince! Then we wouldn't have to be worrying ourselves about this now!" with that,Serena plopped back on her couch. "Rini will not be wed without my approval,and that is finished," Darien said. "Darien,i knoww that! But who do you most prefer? Helios or Tom?" Serena prodded. "Prince Thomas had an ill-mannered disposition when he was young. But i guess his parents disciplined him somehow,and got him into Military school. He has yet another year to finish his studies. His marrying our Rini will be quite welcome,since we have been close friends with Queen Mina and her husband for so long. Now,Helios. he has just been recently appointed a noble here. Though he and Rini have known each other far longer than she with Thomas,i still have some questions. Helios does not have proper education. he is not learned in the rules of trade,economics,et cetera. He is a good,skilled fighter,no problem there. But i must ask, how will he support Rini if they ever marry?" darien finished. Serena groaned. "Mom,Dad. Do not worry. I'm not getting married yet,and as daddy said, i'm too young. It's quite hard to choose between Helios and Thomas as they both meet my standards. So i'll just remain friends with them for now,alright?" Rini said. Her parents nodded,and got into discussing what to do with the remaining forces on the Pi-Si Star, as Rini walked out into the garden.
-ROYAL GARDEN-
"Rini! Over here!" Rini turned to see ginny and her other friends seated among the rose garden. She walked over to them. "So,how are you?" Ginny asked,as Rini seated herself on the grass. "I'm alright i guess," Rini replied. "Well you don't LOOK alright," Sanora said, looking up from her book. "Ah,the ever observant Sanora," Rini laughed, "Well, i'm a little wprried. And confused. You know,about my boy thing." All six heads perked up. "Boy thing? Ahem,come again?" Nita asked, leaning closer. "Yes,dear,do tell!" Elena said,eyes wide and anxious. Rini laughed again. "Mother and Father just came from an arguement over who i'm going to marry," Rini started. "Who ARE you going to marry?" Ginny asked. "Don't interrupt the girl,Gin," Sanora said,eyes fixed on Rini. "Father says i'm too young to marry," Rini started. "Aw,COME ON,Rini,every one of us are betrothes to someone..." Nita groaned. "I agree with your father. You are too young to marry. You've just turned eighteen," Sanora said. Rini sighed, "I know." "Well...who are you most in love with?" Ginny asked. "I..i don't know..It's quite difficult to answer that question. But...I've known Helios in this life and the life before..so..no offense,Ginny..i think i'm more in love with him," Rini reluctantly answered. "Oh,no worries,child, i can live with that. But it would have been really cool to have you as my sister," Ginny smiled. "Thomas or no Thomas, we'll always be sisters. We ALL will," Rini said,grinning. They all giggled and started hugging.
-TWO MONTHS LATER-
Thomas paced back and forth in the Venus palace garden. He had just got into a fight with his sister about something really stupid,and had retreated to the calm of his mother's garden. "Thomas?"
Thomas looked up and found Ginny standing there. She started walking towards him. "Thomas, i'm so sorry about what happened earlier,i really shouldn't have--" "No,dear, it's my fault really," Thomas interrupted. "No,Tom, I was the one who spilled my sample potion on your foot first of all,it's my fault,and--" Ginny was interrupted again. "And I let my temper get the best of me. Really, i shouldn't have gotten angry with you when that happened, it was just one small thing. It's my fault,truly," Thomas decidedly said. "Yeah...it IS your fault," Ginny said thoughtfully. Thomas laughed along with her. "It's Rini,isn't it?" Ginny said,as soon as they had stopped laughing. Thomas' smile vanished and turned from her. "Whatever do you mean?" he asked, striding over the grass and picking up a flower. "I meant...her rejection. And..her choosing Helios instead of...you," Ginny said slowly and uncertainly. Thomas stopped to gaze at the flower he had absent-mindly picked up. It had turned out to be a pink moon flower. Rini's favorite. he threw it back to the ground in disgust. "Drat..why does Mother have to plant moon flowers in her garden,anyway?" he muttered angrily. "Thomas,you're doing it again.." Ginny warned. "Doing what?" Thomas sharply asked. "In your words, 'letting your temper get the best of you,'" Ginny smiled gently. Thomas sighed and sat on the nearest stone bench. "I know...I'm sorry," he said. Ginny sighed and sat down next to him. "I know this is hard for you. The woman you have come to love has turned you away. But Rini loves you,Thomas. She loves you with all her heart. But not in that way. To her,you'll always be the big brother she never had. The rock she could lean on when stormy days overcome her. You've got to accept this,Thomas. It's been two months you've been avoiding her. I won't let this continue. And,anyways,with the tempers you both share,it'll NEVER..WORK..OUT," Ginny finished. Thomas couldn't help but at least smile at his sister's last comment. "You're right,Gin. I'm in the wrong. I've always said you were the better of me,and you sometimes act like the eldest in our family," Thomas said. "I know. So,you over Rini?" Ginny asked. "Yes...i guess...no,i am," Thomas replied. "Good. And anyways,don't fret over losing Rini. You always have ME," Ginny teased. "My annoying little sister over the moon princess? Uh...." Thomas started. "THOMAS!" Ginny warned. "And, there are PLENTY of other beautiful girls who would love to go out on a date with you," she assured. "Like who?" Thomas sighed. "Like.....Princess Elena of Pluto,perhaps?" Ginny grinned slyly. Thomas almost jumped at the name. "AHA! You do have feelings for her!" Ginny shrieked. "My dear little sister,whatever--" Thomas started nervously. "Uh,Uh,Uh. Count on me,big bro. I mean HELLO? It's ME. Sailor APHRODITE? Goddess of LOVE? I'll work this out," Ginny said.
-MOON PALACE(Gym Room)-
"So...no hard feelings?" Rini prodded. "None,whatsoever, As i've been trying to persuade you for the last five minutes," Thomas sighed. Rini smiled. "Thanks,so much. I wish i was more...eloquent in explaining to you why...you know," she said. "I know," Thomas nodded. Rini laughed and they hugged.
Ginny suddenly walked up with Elena in tow. Ginny was wearing an orange tank top with blue jogging pants with her hair in a tight ponytail,and Elena was wearing a dark purple stretch sports shirt over black exercise pants(hair in a loose bun). They were all working out that day,for no particular reason. Just to get together again. Honestly,though,it was Ginny's idea. She wanted Thomas and Rini to patch things up,and afterwards get Elena and Thomas going.
"Hello,reconciling people," Ginny greeted them. "Gin," Elena said warningly,giving her a look. Rini laughed. "That's alright,Elena. Yes,we're quite reconciled. Oh my stars, WHAT on earth is Nita doing to Helios?" Rini suddenly gasped and eyed her boyfriend getting socked by Nita. "Oh,that. Helios got Nita into teaching him her new martial arts move," Ginny explained. "Oh..my..." Rini started pacing quickly towards the two wrestling figures,as Ginny gave a grin to her brother. "So,Thomas. Elena and i here have finally finished our martial arts fighting,unlike Nita and Helios over there. Why don't you two challenge each other?" Ginny tipped innocently. Thomas gave her an incredulous look. "O...k...If it's alright with elena..." Thomas replied all the time glaring at his sister. "Fine with me,just as long you let me win," Elena teased. "You will,most likely. I'm trained in Military defense,and only know a bit about the art," Thomas assured. Elena nodded in satisfaction,and they both walked towards the nearest mat. Ginny smiled mischieviously.
So,this is the end of this VERRRRYYY long tale. Helios gets Rini,Thomas MAY get Elena (find out in my sequel if i EVER write one),and the scouts are mixed in their OWN lives. One question. DO Helios and Rini get married in the end? Or..do Thomas and Rini get married? Ahhhh,so many questions,and SO little time. yeah,well,hope u liked the story anyways,LOL. till nxt time! ;o)

Though he and Rini have known each other far longer than she with Thomas,i still have some questions. Helios does not have proper education. he is not learned in the rules of trade,economics,et cetera. He is a good,skilled fighter,no problem there. But i must ask, how will he support Rini if they ever marry?" darien finished. Serena groaned. "Mom,Dad. Do not worry. I'm not getting married yet,and as daddy said, i'm too young. It's quite hard to choose between Helios and Thomas as they both meet my standards. So i'll just remain friends with them for now,alright?" Rini said. Her parents nodded,and got into discussing what to do with the remaining forces on the Pi-Si Star, as Rini walked out into the garden.
-ROYAL GARDEN-
"Rini! Over here!" Rini turned to see ginny and her other friends seated among the rose garden. She walked over to them. "So,how are you?" Ginny asked,as Rini seated herself on the grass. "I'm alright i guess," Rini replied. "Well you don't LOOK alright," Sanora said, looking up from her book. "Ah,the ever observant Sanora," Rini laughed, "Well, i'm a little wprried. And confused. You know,about my boy thing." All six heads perked up. "Boy thing? Ahem,come again?" Nita asked, leaning closer. "Yes,dear,do tell!" Elena said,eyes wide and anxious. Rini laughed again. "Mother and Father just came from an arguement over who i'm going to marry," Rini started. "Who ARE you going to marry?" Ginny asked. "Don't interrupt the girl,Gin," Sanora said,eyes fixed on Rini. "Father says i'm too young to marry," Rini started. "Aw,COME ON,Rini,every one of us are betrothes to someone..." Nita groaned. "I agree with your father. You are too young to marry. You've just turned eighteen," Sanora said. Rini sighed, "I know." "Well...who are you most in love with?" Ginny asked. "I..i don't know..It's quite difficult to answer that question. But...I've known Helios in this life and the life before..so..no offense,Ginny..i think i'm more in love with him," Rini reluctantly answered. "Oh,no worries,child, i can live with that. But it would have been really cool to have you as my sister," Ginny smiled. "Thomas or no Thomas, we'll always be sisters. We ALL will," Rini said,grinning. They all giggled and started hugging.
-TWO MONTHS LATER-
Thomas paced back and forth in the Venus palace garden. He had just got into a fight with his sister about something really stupid,and had retreated to the calm of his mother's garden. "Thomas?"
Thomas looked up and found Ginny standing there. She started walking towards him. "Thomas, i'm so sorry about what happened earlier,i really shouldn't have--" "No,dear, it's my fault really," Thomas interrupted. "No,Tom, I was the one who spilled my sample potion on your foot first of all,it's my fault,and--" Ginny was interrupted again. "And I let my temper get the best of me. Really, i shouldn't have gotten angry with you when that happened, it was just one small thing. It's my fault,truly," Thomas decidedly said. "Yeah...it IS your fault," Ginny said thoughtfully. Thomas laughed along with her. "It's Rini,isn't it?" Ginny said,as soon as they had stopped laughing. Thomas' smile vanished and turned from her. "Whatever do you mean?" he asked, striding over the grass and picking up a flower. "I meant...her rejection. And..her choosing Helios instead of...you," Ginny said slowly and uncertainly. Thomas stopped to gaze at the flower he had absent-mindly picked up. It had turned out to be a pink moon flower. Rini's favorite. he threw it back to the ground in disgust. "Drat..why does Mother have to plant moon flowers in her garden,anyway?" he muttered angrily. "Thomas,you're doing it again.." Ginny warned. "Doing what?" Thomas sharply asked. "In your words, 'letting your temper get the best of you,'" Ginny smiled gently. Thomas sighed and sat on the nearest stone bench. "I know...I'm sorry," he said. Ginny sighed and sat down next to him. "I know this is hard for you. The woman you have come to love has turned you away. But Rini loves you,Thomas. She loves you with all her heart. But not in that way. To her,you'll always be the big brother she never had. The rock she could lean on when stormy days overcome her. You've got to accept this,Thomas. It's been two months you've been avoiding her. I won't let this continue. And,anyways,with the tempers you both share,it'll NEVER..WORK..OUT," Ginny finished. Thomas couldn't help but at least smile at his sister's last comment. "You're right,Gin. I'm in the wrong. I've always said you were the better of me,and you sometimes act like the eldest in our family," Thomas said. "I know. So,you over Rini?" Ginny asked. "Yes...i guess...no,i am," Thomas replied. "Good. And anyways,don't fret over losing Rini. You always have ME," Ginny teased. "My annoying little sister over the moon princess? Uh...." Thomas started. "THOMAS!" Ginny warned. "And, there are PLENTY of other beautiful girls who would love to go out on a date with you," she assured. "Like who?" Thomas sighed. "Like.....Princess Elena of Pluto,perhaps?" Ginny grinned slyly. Thomas almost jumped at the name. "AHA! You do have feelings for her!" Ginny shrieked. "My dear little sister,whatever--" Thomas started nervously. "Uh,Uh,Uh. Count on me,big bro. I mean HELLO? It's ME. Sailor APHRODITE? Goddess of LOVE? I'll work this out," Ginny said.
-MOON PALACE(Gym Room)-
"So...no hard feelings?" Rini prodded. "None,whatsoever, As i've been trying to persuade you for the last five minutes," Thomas sighed. Rini smiled. "Thanks,so much. I wish i was more...eloquent in explaining to you why...you know," she said. "I know," Thomas nodded. Rini laughed and they hugged.
Ginny suddenly walked up with Elena in tow. Ginny was wearing an orange tank top with blue jogging pants with her hair in a tight ponytail,and Elena was wearing a dark purple stretch sports shirt over black exercise pants(hair in a loose bun). They were all working out that day,for no particular reason. Just to get together again. Honestly,though,it was Ginny's idea. She wanted Thomas and Rini to patch things up,and afterwards get Elena and Thomas going.
"Hello,reconciling people," Ginny greeted them. "Gin," Elena said warningly,giving her a look. Rini laughed. "That's alright,Elena. Yes,we're quite reconciled. Oh my stars, WHAT on earth is Nita doing to Helios?" Rini suddenly gasped and eyed her boyfriend getting socked by Nita. "Oh,that. Helios got Nita into teaching him her new martial arts move," Ginny explained. "Oh..my..." Rini started pacing quickly towards the two wrestling figures,as Ginny gave a grin to her brother. "So,Thomas. Elena and i here have finally finished our martial arts fighting,unlike Nita and Helios over there. Why don't you two challenge each other?" Ginny tipped innocently. Thomas gave her an incredulous look. "O...k...If it's alright with elena..." Thomas replied all the time glaring at his sister. "Fine with me,just as long you let me win," Elena teased. "You will,most likely. I'm trained in Military defense,and only know a bit about the art," Thomas assured. Elena nodded in satisfaction,and they both walked towards the nearest mat. Ginny smiled mischieviously.
So,this is the end of this VERRRRYYY long tale. Helios gets Rini,Thomas MAY get Elena (find out in my sequel if i EVER write one),and the scouts are mixed in their OWN lives. One question. DO Helios and Rini get married in the end? Or..do Thomas and Rini get married? Ahhhh,so many questions,and SO little time. yeah,well,hope u liked the story anyways,LOL. till nxt time! ;o)
