Jupiter landed on the ground easily, and looked down at her
Princess. Serenity had her eyes shut tight and a her hands in a death
grip on Jupiter's forearms. She smiled and set Serenity on the ground.
"Common! Move it!" Mars shouted as she began to race down the
street at lightening pace, with Venus and and Mercury hot on her heels.
Jupiter waited for all of 10 seconds for Serenity to catch her
breath, then grabbed her hand and half dragged her down the street. When
they caught up with the others Serenity's mouth dropped open, and it
wasn't just from the lack of oxygen that the demanding run had caused
her. There were people laying all over the ground, some half concious
and others out cold. She paled. While she had heard of several of the
fights that the senshi had been in, she had never actually seen
anything and the sight before her horrified her.
"Burning Maldia!" Mars shouted sending several fire balls at
a grotesque creature standing a few meters away. Serenity wanted to
faint.
****
Darien bent over and clutched his chest. The pain was familure
now; he knew that seconds later he would transform into Tokyo's most
dashing fighter in a tuxedo and top hat. His transformation ended and
the rose that he held in his right hand disappeared. He jumped off his
balcany and followed his sixth sense to where the fight was taking
place. However, something felt different about the 'call' this time.
Something urgent. Something that he couldn't quite put his finger on.
****
"Jupiter thunderclap zap!" A hiss and crackle of electricity
wrapped itself around the monster and it shreeked in pain and rage.
Serenity stood staring straight at the horrible creature as half
it's body burned away as if acid had been poured on it. Then it suddenly
stopped it's eardrum bursting yells yells and it's eyes fixed on her.
Frozen and too scared to even scream Serenity stood still as the monster
suddenly took off toward her, too fast for her senshi to get in it's way.
It doged any attacks thrown at it, and was closing in quickly. Serenity's
mouth dropped open and a scream finally made it's way out of her throat.
"Ahhhhh!!"
*swish* *thump* *boing*
Serenity thought as the three sounds echoed in her mind.
The first thing to register was that she wasn't being crushed to death in
the razer sharp jaws of the creature back on the ground.
The second thing to become clear was the fact that her last thought
had ended with 'back on the ground'. It was now that Serenity realized that
she was flying through the air....in the arms of some strange man!
As she tried to calm herself down the last events replayed through
her mind. Her screaming, figure in black jumping out of a tree to land
beside her, and the strange man scooping her into his arms to carry her
safely out of reach of the monster.
When they landed on a near-by roof top, the caped man lowered her
to the ground, still holding her in his arms, and knelt on the concrete.
"Are you alright, Sailormoon?" He asked, his deep voice and close
presence, causing her to blush.
"I-- I--, yes, I'm fine." Serenity managed to squeak out. The man
still hadn't let her go.
"Who are you?" she asked, blinking her bright azure eyes up at him.
The man gave her a strange look, "Tuxedo Mask..." He said slowly,
"Are you sure you're ok??" He asked again, why didn't she know him?
Serenity returned his look. "I'm fine. Thank-you for saving me
Tuxedo Mask. Oh--!" she broke off, seeing the creature hit Mars with some
sort of green slime. "Mars!!"
Seeing her distress, Tuxedo Mask immediately jumped to his feet,
setting Serenity on her own as he did so. The moment her boots touched
the ground Serenity was running toward the end of the building.
"I have to help them! How do I get down from here?!" she cried,
paniced.
Tuxed Mask stared at her. Why was Sailormoon suddenly afraid of
jumping off a small 2 story building? Just then two small hands grabbed
the laples of his suit coat and shook him.
"Help Me!!" she cried, her eyes wild.
Without another word, Tuxedo Mask took the small girl in his arms
again and lept from the roof top. She didn't scream as they flew through
the air, but still kept her eyes closed tight. As soon as they hit the
ground the girl had fought to be out his arms.
She ran for the other senshi at top speed, still having no idea what
she was supposed to do help them. Hadn't Mecury said that she was a senshi
too in this time? Then she must have a power too, right?
Skidding to a stop about 20 feet from the monster she froze. From
several meters to her right Mercury stood in a defensive position. Seeing
the Princess her heart jumped into her throat, but she struggled to remain
calm. Serenity might be the only one who could save them.
"Sailormoon, your tiara!!" she shouted.
Serenity stared at her confused. "W-what?"
"Your tiara! Throw it at that thing and yell 'Moon Tiara Action'!"
Mercury cried again, and when she hesitated, shouted at her, "NOW!"
Serenity touched her forehead and felt the cool metal of a golden
crown. The ruby pulsated with heat when her fingers brushed against it.
Taking hold of the thin metal, Serenity pulled the decoration off her head
and hurled it with all her strength at the advancing monster.
"M-moon T-tiara A-a-action!" she cried, throwing her hands over her
head as the monster was almost on top of her. Hitting the creature at
point blank range, it exploded with savage roar, and turned to dust at her
feet.
****
Serena stared at the handsome man that sat across from her, she
couldn't believe what he had just told her.
"So you're saying that I'm a Princess from the Moon? I really don't
think--" but Endymoin cut her off.
"Serenity, I'm worried about you. Why do you continue to deniy who
you are? And why didn't your court accompany you to Earth? You're going to
start another war before our marriage can alliance the first one!"
Serena's mouth dropped open and Endymoin suddenly seemed uncomfortable,
like he'd said too much.
Serena knew that she was the senshi of the moon back in her time, and
knew that she and the other senshi were searching for a Moon Princess, but
couldn't swallow the Prince's line about her being it! Secondly, his self-
proclaimed-soon-to-take-place engagement was only one of conveience, and the
thought revolted her!
"You mean to tell me..." she began slowly, "That you're giong to marry
this Princess--"
"You. I'm going to marry you, Serenity. Next week Tuesday, exactly 2
days from now." Endymoin interrupted.
Serena shook her head, and jumped to her feet, Endymoin stood quickly
and caught hold of her wrist.
"Serenity--" he started, a warning in his voice.
"No! I'm not Serenity! I'm Serena! I'm 17, I live in Tokyo Japan and
I'm not your future bride! I don't love you-- I-- I barely know you! And I
pity the poor girl whom you're marrying only for convenience!" She could see
that her words had struck a nerve, and that the Prince was getting royally
ticked off at her.
Endymoin tightened his grip and yanked the girl forward. Serena
stumbled toward him and fell against his chest. Her face flushed and she
glared up at him.
"I dispise you!" she hissed at him through gritted teeth, her rosebud
shaped lips drawing the Prince's attention more then her words.
"Then let me change your mind..." he said, his voice low. The next
thing Serena knew, his face was centimeters from hers, and then he was kissing
her!!
Her body trembled from the searing kiss and she found that she couldn't
move to pull herself away. When Endymoin finally pulled back Serena stared up
at him with a dazed look in her eyes; he still held her wrist. Tears glistened
in her eyes once again and she whispered her next words to him,
"Please let me go, you're hurting me..."
Endymoin realized that he still held her delicate wrist in a near crushing
grip against his chest and released her. Serena took a step back, rubbing her sore
wrist with her left hand, soothing away the finger marks left from the impression of
the Prince's hand.
"What gives you the right to-- to--..." Serena said, seething.
"Princess, please..." Endymoin began, but Serena wasn't listening. She
slowly shook her head as she matched his advancing steps with even steps backing
in the opposite direction. Endymoin reached for her again, wanting to explain
away his actions but knowing that he may have crossed a line that he could never
retract from. He stepped closer, but Serenity started to yell.
"Just stay away from me! I don't want to be here! I-- I just want to
go home! I want to see Luna...and Shingo...and Mama and Papa! I want to see my
friends-- I even want to see Darien!"
"Please--" he tried again, desperation evident in his voice.
"NO! Stay the hell away from me!" Serena cried and then turned, grabbed
her layered skirts, pulled them up several inches so that she could move freely,
and started to run through the gardens as fast as she could. After a few steps
she realized that the shoes she wore wouldn't do, and kicked them off; the delicate,
low heeled, satian slippers flying through the air.
Endymoin stared at Serenity's retreating back and scratched his head.
Just what was going on here? He sighed and started after her, only having to jog,
because his long legs allowed him to cover the grounds more quickly.
Serena ran, tears beginning to fall down her cheeks. She didn't want to
marry this strange man! A man who handled her like she didn't matter...like he
could do whatever he wanted to her...like kiss her breathless and then act like
that would solve all their problems! The hot tears carved patterns down her salt
crusted cheeks and she finally callapsed in a heap against an Oak tree, near a
pink rose bush. Tearing the matching rose from her hair, Serena threw it to the
side and covered her face with her hands sobbing.
Endymoin stopped short when he rounded a corner and came upon the sight of
the crying girl. He hadn't meant to hurt her. Slowly he approached her and then
knelt in front of her. Hesitently he reached out and placed a hand on her arm.
Serenity jerked back violently, turning her back on him.
"Ok..." Endymoin sighed deeply, pulling his hand back and regrouping his
thoughts. "I won't make you marry me, Serenity, but please understand that I'm not
in this engagement merely because of the convenience that it will bring to both out
kingdoms. I do care about you, wether you chose to believe it or not. Now, please,
dry your eyes, and I'll see that you're returned to your home."
Serena lifted her head at the words that Endymoin spoke, and turned her
head to face him.
"Th-thank-you.." she whispered. The Prince held out a white hankerchief
to her. Serena blushed, "I must look terrible!" She took the white cloth, turned
part ways away from him again, and carefully wiped her face. Then, taking a still
shakey breath, turned back to him. Endymoin took the damp cloth back from her and
placed it in his vest pocket, then offered her a hand to help her to her feet and
led her back to the Palace.
After seeing Serenity to her room, where she promptly fell asleep on the
giant feather bed, exausted from crying, Enymoin went to the throan room to talk to
his parents. He had a feeling that they weren't going to be as agreeable about the
whole situation as he had been.
-----------------------
Well, that's all for part 4. Sorry that it's so short, but when one get's
writer's block, there's not much one can do except grab something chocolate, and
curl up with a good romance manga until it passes. See you next time! ^-^
