*************************************THE PALACE**********************************
"Here, your to wear this to Earth." he said handing the box to Serena. She opened it and pulled out a big pearl-white dress.
"You bought me a... tent." she said looking at it. Darien took it from her so she could look at it better. She raised the hem of the dress and stuck her head in. "I'll be back in a little bit. I'm going into the market place before we go to Earth. If she's going to earn us the ten million Galleons (Lunarian dollors) (A.N. thanx sandra for mentioning the prize money. I completely forgot to mention how much. ~_~')" Darien said to Artimas in the main hall, while putting on his coat. "I shouldn't be gone more then two hours, three tops." Then off he went. He returned two hours later carrying a clothing box.
"What are you looking for?" Darien asked looking threw the neck of the dress.
"The Lunarian circus, I think it's still in here." She joked
"Oh, just put it on." he threw it at her and walked away. When he was gone she went into the room she had been using and started working on the dress. She altered it so it would fit better. When she was finished she went back to the Study where both men were waiting.
"Well,...?" she said to get there attention.
Darien looked up and his breath caught in his throught Serena looked gorgeous. The dress was skin fitting around the waist, two puffs on her shoulders where the long sleeves connected, a low neck line, and it wasn't so big at the bottom. She also had a string of beads around her neck.
"You look beautiful..." Darien finally managed to choke out after a few minutes.
"Yes, indeed, there is one more thing you need to learn before we leave." Artimas informed her, "You are dressed for a ball, so you must learn to dance for one as well. To the Ballroom."
*************************************THE BALLROOM*****************************
Once in the Ballroom Artimas instructed Darien to show her how to Waltz. He put his arm around her waist and pulled her close. The he started to dance.
"You do look gorgeous you know." he said in a half whisper.
"Thank you." she responded, there hearts were beating so fast they thought they would fly away.
"I'm starting to feel a little..."
"Dizzy? Probably from all the spinning. Perhaps we should stop." he suggested
"We have stopped."
"Serena..."
"Yes,...?"
"I..." he said as his head started to lower to hers. Then suddenly he pulled away remembering their purpose. "Good luck." he said turning away.
"Thanks." she said sounding a little disappointed.
"Now come you two. We are going to Earth now." Artimas said.
*************************************THE TELEPORTER*****************************
Serena twitched nervously as they waited in line.
"Stop that. There's no need to be nervous." Darien ordered
"Darien, do you really think I'm the Princess?" Serena asked
"Of course I do." Darien stated sounding rather irritated at the question.
"Then stop bossing me around! Besides I had a rather rude dealing with this guy before. Humph!" Serena said crossing her arms and turning her back to him.
Artimas, whom was hidden in Darien's bag, laughed at there interaction under his breath. He unfolded a paper and put a mark under Serena's name. He had been keeping score of there little fights and so far Serena was winning 24 to 10. "She's quite an outspoken young lady. A rather odd attraction. Eh Darien?" Artimas said so that only Darien could hear.
"Attraction?! That skinny little brat! You have got to be kidding me!" Darien whispered so that Serena, whom was standing about two feet away from him, couldn't hear. Artimas just laughed again receiving a dirty, irritated look from Darien.
They waited in line for what seemed hours. Finally, just as Serena started to loose all her patience the retch the teleporter booth. The same man from when Serena had come the first time was running the teleporter. Darien and Serena stepped up to the booth. The man looked the two up and down as if sizing them up. This made Serena even more nervous. What if he recognized her? What if he didn't let them threw? Thought whirled around in her mind at about fifty words a minute. Meanwhile Darien was looking at the man with a calm, cool smile on his face.
"Hello sir. My fiance and I would like to go to Earth." he said while handing the man there papers. Serena shot him a surprised look. She hadn't known he was going to say anything like that. He glanced at her. His eyes warned her not to say anything. Her only response was her eyes turning down cast and her cheeks flushed. She kept her hands out of sight lest he notice that she wasn't wearing a ring. The man surveyed them once more before nodding.
"Step inside. Move quickly, I don't have all day." He said in his ruff voice. Serena ad Darien did as he said. There was a flash of light and in a matter of seconds they were in the exit teleporter on Earth. They stepped out quickly and hurried threw the village toward the palace.
***********************************THE EARTH PALACE*****************************
"Now remember, Serena, stand up strait, don't slouch." reminded Darien for the fifth time since they had left the teleporter booth.
"I know, I know you don't have to remind me. And quit bossing me around!" Serena said irritably.
They entered the gate of the Palace grounds and walked up the long path leading to the main doors.
"We are here to see Queen Serenity about her daughter." Darien said
The guard took one look at him and his eyes widened in surprise. "Yes sir, but you will have to speak to the queen's advisor, Lady Luna, first." said the guard in a rather awed voice.
"That's fine, we'll be happy to speak with Luna." Artimas spoke up from next to Serena's feet.
The guard looked around trying to find the source of the voice. When he finally looked down his eyes grew even larger. "Lord Artimas! I'll inform Lady Luna of your presence immediately. Please fallow me you may await her in the parlor" said the guard leading them down a hallway. He led them to a room and then went to fetch Lady Luna.
Meanwhile...Darien was looking around the room in amazement. For some strange reason he had a feeling that the room was familiar to him. As if he had been there before. This is so odd. It feels like I have been here before." Darien said mystified by this feeling.
"Does it now? Hmm... What kind of feelings does it bring up?" Artimas asked as a thought came to him.
"Hmm... I feel like I'v been here when I was a kid or something. For some strange reason I get this longing for my parents. I haven't felt this way since I was a little kid. For some really strange reason I feel as if my parents are going to come threw that door." Darien said, as he pointed to it the door on the other side of the room from where they had entered, it opened. In walked a cat that looked like Artimas except it was black with red eyes, as Artimas was white with blue eyes. The cat was also unmistakably a girl.
