"Darien there you are! What is this that I hear about you andSerenity
finding a girl out in the forest?" William said as they walked up to them.
"Mother, Father, this is Lady Trinity. Trinity, this is my mother Queen Deborah and my father King William." Trinity smiled,"Hello your majesties, nice to meet you." she said as she curtsied. They smiled back,"Oh this is our daughter Andromeda and her friend Prince Artemis of Lumeria, and these are his parents, King Sensi and Queen Serenity."
"Hello dear, we have another child around here somewhere." Sensi said.
"Yes, Serenity was it? I believe I met her briefly." she nodded her head. Serenity looked to the people on her right,"This is Lord Zoicite and Lady Ami, friends of the family." she smiled towards them.
"Nice to meet you as well." Trinity smiled.
"Yes, same here." Ami smiled.
"Likewise." Zoicite said.
"Well come along then, it's time for lunch." the queen said as they all went inside. They all went into the dining room, but Zoicite lagged behind in the hall,"Huh? What's wrong Zoicite?" Ami asked as she walked up to him.
"I can't put my finger on it, but there is something about that girl." he said as he shook his head.
"Who? You mean Trinity?" Ami laughed. "Look hun I think your being paranoid."
"I guess your right, but I just get weird vibes when I am around her." he replied. Just then a blonde hared whirlwind ran by, she turned around and stopped,"Hey what are you two doing out here? The grub is in there! Come on!" I said as I grabbed them by the hands.
"Are you sure she doesn't have any of her mother in her too?" Ami laughed.
"ACK!" they both shouted as I pulled them into the dining room with me.
"Serenity so nice of you to include our guests." my mother laughed as we all sat down. I glanced over at Ami and Zoicite who were trying to compose themselves,"He he, sorry." I smiled.
"I really do appreciate you guys saving my hide back there." I said in between bites.
"Um....."Zoicite started.
"Bunny." Artemis whispered.
"Oh sorry." I blushed as I swallowed my food. Just then, the hair on my arms and the back of my neck stood on end. I jumped out of my chair and unsheathed my sword. Zoicite did the same as the rest just watched us in wonder.
"Something....."Zoicite started as he looked around.
"Wicked this way comes." I smiled as I finished his statement with a shakesphere quote. Just then Darien and Trinity walked in,"Calm down guys, it's just us." Darien said.
"Huh?!" Zoicite and I said at the same time. I glanced over at him and shrugged my shoulders. We put our swords away and sat back down.
"So Lady Trinity, where do you hail from?" Zoicite asked.
'It would be easier for them to trust me hmmm lemme think' "Well I did live in Brittiania, but I got attacked by some guy named Blackthorn. . I don't know what Blackthorn wants with me, but I am scared to death!" she lied.
"Oh that is just awful! I wonder how he escaped?" my mother asked outloud.
"Do you know of him?" Trinity asked. She nodded her head,"He is my uncle, although I have no idea why he would be after you dear." I glanced over at the others who seemed to be buying it, and then to Darien, who hadn't taken his eyes off of her since they walked in. Zoicite put his glass down and I looked over at him, I shot him a 'I don't buy it for some reason look.' He seemed to understand because he nodded his head.
"Princess?" a voice asked as I started down the hall. I turned around to see Zoicite walking towards me,"Oh it's you! Please just call me Serenity or Bunny, forget the princess stuff." I smiled.
"Bunny huh? Cute. Anyways, I wanted to talk with you about Trinity." he said.
"Aye, and I wanted to talk with you as well." I replied as I motioned outdoors.
'Hmmm I am not liking those two together, they are sneaky.' Trinity thought as she took leave of Darien and walked to the room she was to stay in.
"My lord, it is I Trinity." she spoke to her mirror. Blackthorn appeared,"Yes my child?"
"Why did you tell me to turn Darien away when the light shot out of Serenity's head?" He produced an image of what happened before,"The spell that he is under is because of the beam of light that you hit him with yourself when he found you. If he was to see the light from her then the spell would be broken."
"I see. What do you wish me to do about Zoicite and Serenity being together all the time?" He thought for a moment,"Keep Serenity occupied as much as possible, that way she won't have time to be around him."
"Will do." she said as the image vanished. Zoicite and I sat down under the gazebo,"So you don't buy it either huh?" he asked.
"No not really, there is something familiar about her though. It's right there on the back of my mind, but I can't get it to surface." I sighed.
"Looks like we are together in this kiddo. I think she has everyone else pretty much convinced." he smiled.
"Well do what you will, I said as I stood up, I am going to keep an eye on her." He stood,"Just how are you gonna do that?"
"You gotta remember I am Bunny, all sweet and innocent, I will just befriend her.!" I winked as I ran off. Zoicite watched her go,"Be careful there hun." he sighed as he walked off. Trinity walked down the hall, "Darien there you are! Have you seen Serenity?"
"Not since lunch, then I think she went outside with Lord Zoicite." he replied.
"Thank you hun." she smiled as she kissed him on the cheek and walked into the gardens. I was out looking at the roses,"Pretty aren't they?" I asked outloud.
"How did you know I was here?" Trinity asked as I turned around. I shrugged my shoulders,"I really have no idea, here, have a yellow rose." I said as she took it.
"Um thanks." she said.
"Yellow stands for friendship." I smiled. This took Trinity by surprise,"Oh I see." she smiled back. 'so young, so innocent hmmm such a pity.'
"Would you like to go swimming?" I asked her.
"Sure, that sounds like fun!" she smiled as we walked inside. We put our suits on, grabbed our robes and ran out the door,'hmmm she is not so prissy like the others, maybe I was wrong about her.' I thought as we reached the lake.
"Wow your the first royal, other than me that likes to run!" I panted.
'hmmm maybe I can get Darien and not have to kill her afterall.'Trinity thought to herself. "Well I like to do other stuff then just sit around all day, it tends to get boring." she smiled as she took off her robe to reveal a black and white bikini. I took mine off as well to reveal a green and yellow striped one,"Hey look what I brought to play with!" I exclaimed as I grabbed an innertube.
"How neat, I haven't played with oune of those since I was a little girl!" Trinity smiled. I threw it out onto the water,"There ya go it's all yours." I smiled as I started climbing the tree nearest the lake.
"Wait for me!" she shouted as she climbed up after me. I crawled out onto the end of a branch and stood up,"Hey, wanna jump?" Trinity asked as she stood up by me.
"Sure! On the count of three! One...Two..." we started.
"Hey girls what are you doing?" a voice startled us and we fell off the branch and into the water. We finally surfaced, Trinity was under the innertube and I stood up. .
"Three." we both mumbled as we looked to the shore to see who it was.
"Darien!" We both shouted. He walked closer to the lake,"Well be a gentlemen and help us out already." Trinity said as she swam to the edge by me. Darien grabbed our hands,"Shall we?" I asked with a sly grin. Trinity looked shocked at first, and then nodded her head,"We shall."
"Hey now wait a minute....."he started as we yanked him in the lake.
"BUNNY!!" he shouted as he surfaced.
"Ah music to my ears!" I giggled as Trinity and I climbed out. Darien finally climbed out and walked over to us, we were drying off.
"So, did you enjoy your dip, highness?" I smiled. Trinity just giggled,"And you how could you help her?" he asked her in shock. She just shrugged her shoulders and smiled,"Who little innocent me?"
"Innocent huh?" Darien growled as he grabbed her and kissed the daylights out of her. I pretended not to notice, and I grabbed my stuff,"Well I am going back to the palace, I will see you guys later." I smiled and ran off.
"My lord, I have done what you have asked. I have befriended her." Trinity said that night.
"Excellent, but do not kill her. I have someone else in mind for the job." he said.
"Who my lord?" Trinity asked.
"She will be slain by the person she loves the most, namely the prince."
"Darien? But how...." she started.
"Do not question me child!" he barked.
"Yes my Lord." she said as the mirror went back the original state.
"Hmmm, she is becoming a pest, I shall dispose of her as well." Blackthorn smiled.
"Mother, Father, this is Lady Trinity. Trinity, this is my mother Queen Deborah and my father King William." Trinity smiled,"Hello your majesties, nice to meet you." she said as she curtsied. They smiled back,"Oh this is our daughter Andromeda and her friend Prince Artemis of Lumeria, and these are his parents, King Sensi and Queen Serenity."
