The Weaker Sex Chapter one--The Plan



Weak. That's what they call her. Princess Serenity could never understand as to why. She was revered as to be the next Crystal Carrier. Many even rumored her to be far stronger than her mother. But of course, when it came to hand-to-hand combat.... the Princess lost hands down. Sure she had the strength of the crystal protecting her; as it laid deep inside her. But.... let's just say that she didn't know how to harness the power. Or bring it forth willfully. Most of the time the power would burst forth in huge waves of power when she became extremely emotional. But even that was a rarity.

Sitting upon her bed and contemplating over these thoughts Sailor Jupiter had walked into the room. Now, Lita as you already know is a caring friend and very happy-go-lucky girl, but when she saw the Princess sitting there in sadness, the worst came to her mind and she immediately came to her side as a friend and as a part of her court.

"Hey Serena.... why so glum?"

Serenity sat for a moment, not knowing whether to burden her friend or not, but than all came out in a sudden rush, "Oh Lita, why is it that everyone seems to think I am nothing but a burden?"

Lita looked at her in surprise; "You're not a burden Serena! Why would you ever think that?"

The Princess sighed and stood up from her grandeur bed and walked to her balcony with Lita in tow. "You hear what they say Lita. I know you're my friend so there is nothing to be afraid of if you tell me the truth," suddenly near the balcony edge Serena turned to Lita, her eyes pleading for truth, "Do you think I am weak?" Lita looked in surprise at the sudden outburst but knew that her friend was sincere.

"No. You are not weak Serena. And don't let anyone tell you otherwise," she scolded. Looking upon Serenas' face she sighed, "Look, if you want the truth...no....you are not weak.... but.... when it comes to controling your powers you still need work. And let's face it, your hand-to-hand combat skills aren't that great." Suddenly realizing what she said she retracted her words quickly," I mean.... you're.... you're--"

Holding up her hand for silence the Princess said, "I know what you mean Lita, and your intentions are well." Facing out to her garden she than looked to the Earth. "I'm just tired of being a weak Princess."

As Litas' Princess gazed upon the moon, she was struck with a brilliant idea. "Princess, I believe I may have an answer that will solve all your problems."

Serena looked at her in surprise for a moment than became eager as well. "Well? Get on with it!"

"Well, why not dress as a man and walk about the streets as one. Buy a home, learn the ways of men, or...do what you wish to learn most...."

"Yes? YES!?"

"Join the Prince of Earths' Royal Guard!!"

For a moment Serena looked at her friend as if she were utterly crazy. But than it dawned on her, 'If I join the Princes' Guard I could learn how to fight. Be strong. It would be stupid if I joined our guard. I would be found out more easily. Not to mention that the Prince has the most highly respected warriors of this galaxy system.' She smiled and began to laugh in delight. "Oh Lita! It's brilliant!" She hugged her friend in excitement than pulled away suddenly, "But we must tell the Scouts. Also, we have to find suitable clothing. A disguise...a--"

"Leave it all up to me my Princess and friend. I'll make sure EVERYTHING is arranged!" She winked at her friend and quickly ran out of the room to prepare and clue in the other Scouts. Leaving the Princess in excitement and anticipation.
