CHAPTER 5 - ROYALTY UNEXPECTED
Hotaru sat, bored, on her comfortable bed. She held a book out in front of her, reading about the different planets and their moons. Sighing, she was almost grateful for the surprised shout from Sailor Uranus. Immediately, a flash of gold thundered by the window and abruptly flickered into non- existence. Her violet gaze shifted to the barren lands of Uranus and saw, shocked, a lovely princess and a queen, bathed in glorious silver light. Grabbing her small, violet wand, it glowed a gently amethyst, spreading over her hand, arm, and whole body until she vanished, and reappeared outside, but still out of sight. Getting a closer look, the Saturn princess was shocked to find Queen Selenity and her daughter in all of their glory outside. Queen Selenity was beautiful, her silver hair shining and an elegant feel to her walk. The princess was just as beautiful with honey blonde hair and shining blue eyes, graceful and lithe. There was a mighty power to the Queen, and a self-confident edge that was to be admired. Sailor Uranus jogged out, her sword vanishing in a quick flash of gold.
"My Queen," she greeted, also bowing. "What, may I ask, are you and Princess Selenity doing on my humble planet during a senshi's training?" Her dark blue eyes flickered upward, respect covering up most of her petty annoyance. The young princess smiled in amusement, laughter bubbling up in her cerulean eyes. Uranus's glance flashed at Hotaru, and she gave a nod in response. It was sort of a senshi thing. Walking out with a light lavender dress gently waving in the light breeze, she smiled and bowed down low, respectfully, her black hair fluttering over her shoulders. They gave a polite bow back, the Queen watching her with interest, as if surprised by her happiness and innocence.
"Good evening, Lady Hotaru," both the Queen and Princess greeted. A shy smile swept across her lips. Turning back to Sailor Uranus, who was shifting impatiently, the Queen smiled. "We have come to invite you to a formal senshi ball." Then, turning to Hotaru, she added, "It's a good way to make friends with all the others." At that, the young senshi grinned, violet eyes shining, and bowed.
"May I ask when it is?" Hotaru queried curiously. For the first time, the Moon Princess spoke alone.
"The ball shall be held in about a year. We always like to invite our guests early," she stated smoothly and gave a bright smile. Her voice was lithe and delicate and made both Hotaru and Sailor Uranus smile. "I assume we'll see you there," she added with a grin and both her and her mother vanished. Blinking, Hotaru gave a slight grin.
Her curious gaze flickered up to Sailor Uranus. "Will I be.. fully trained when it's time for us to go?" she asked. The elder senshi nodded and grinned. With a little more dynamism, Hotaru transformed into the senshi of Saturn and once more began training.
