AUTHOR'S NOTES: Darius, Derrak, Alexandros and the Star Kingdom are my own creations. I started to write this story as a way to answer the burning questions in my mind. How did the people of the Moon Kingdom get around to other planets (seeing as they never showed how they did so as a regular matter) and who Serenity's father was and why he was never seen or talked about. Read and Review and let me know what you think and I welcome emails from people who wish to express their pleasure or displeasure towards my story.
Knights Of The Stars
A Sailor Moon Fanfiction
By DariusKnight
Prologue
A man clad in golden armor and a black cape perches on top of a building with a solemn expression on his face as he watches a battle raging underneath him. He reaches out and caresses the sword buckled to his belt beside him as he observes 5 women dressed in sailor fukus fighting a couple of monsters who have terrorized the neighbourhood of Juuban. His eyes have a faraway look as he remembers the distant past, over 2000 years ago, on the Moon Kingdom.
His name is Darius, a Star Knight he was the son of Alexandros, King of the Star Kingdom and brother of the girl he was sent to tutor and ostensibly protect. He was quite upset about it because in his opinion, backed up from the palace gossip, he was sent to be babysat himself while his father and his twin brother, Derrak, the Crown Prince of the Star Kingdom fought the terrible war in the Star Kingdom on the outer edge of the Milky Way galaxy. Even now as he stepped out of the Star Gate wearing only his formal knight's robes and looked around seeing the huge reception formed to greet him, nothing changed his opinion.
A murmur rippled through the crowd that had gathered around the Gate Chamber as people gazed upon the Prince of the Star Kingdom, born to the man who had left Queen Selenity with the twins after the birth of the Princess Serenity to carve out his own empire in the far reaches of space. Darius was a tall man, a few inches over 6 feet and handsome, with dark brown hair that seemed to defy being combed, as it stood in perpetual disarray although this framed his serious patrician face like a halo. Like a Greek god of old he was muscular and chiseled in the way of someone who spent most of his life training in the martial arts and swordsmanship.
He so desperately wanted to turn around and re-enter the Star Gate and help his father and brother fight the demons who were threatening his kingdom. He closed his eyes for a moment, and took a deep calming breath and his training allowed him to set aside his feelings in order to perform his duty. He was ordered to tutor his sister, the Princess of the Moon Kingdom, Serenity and his sense of honor and duty would not let shirk it. It was then that he opened his eyes, set his face in stone, and began to walk towards the Moon Kingdom Royal Family and their Court.
