Return To The Past: Mamoru's Journey

Chapter 17 – The Day Ends (Plus an important author's note)

Author's Notes: Hey minna!! I am SOOO Sorry. I have been having problem and problem lately. First, finals and graduation. Then, my computer crashed. I wrote this short chapter because they will no longer let us do author's notes alone. Chapter 18 will be "Queeen Serenity's Visit" and I promise it will be long. Also, it will be out fairly soon. Promise. Please bare with me!! It is ALMOST over. As always, REVIEW, REVIEW, REVIEW!!

"Daddy, Daddy!!" Mamo-Endy yelled excitedly rushing into his Daddy's office. King Sol looked up from the Moon Kingdom Treaty on his desk just in time to catch his eldest as his flung him onto his lap.

King Sol laughed good-naturedly. "What is it, Endy-chan? Did you have a good ride?"

Mamo-Endy nodded emphatically. "Hai! Hai! I went ta town with Uncle Terrance and we ate in town and he let me get a treat and this!" Mamo-Endy declared, holding up his newest toy. It was a simple figurine of a black horse. "It is my horse, Daddy. Uncle Terrance says I can have a real black horse when I'm bigger."

"Does he?" King Sol looked up at his younger brother who stood in the doorway silently watching the scene and grinning. "Well, maybe in a couple of years. You must first learn to ride a horse before you may have one of your own."

"I'm a good rider already, Daddy. The dumb horse would not listen to me!"

"Well, you must make him listen, Endy. How will you ever learn to rule the entire Earth if you can not even make a horse listen to you?" Endy blinked looking up at his father curiously. King Sol laughed again. "You tell that horse he had better listen or your Daddy will come out there and make him wish he had." Mamo-Endy grinned nodding his agreement. Jumping down from his Daddy's lap, Mamo-Endy moved to leave the room. He wanted to show off his newest toy to David and Terry. "Wow, little man. Where do you think you are going?" His father questioned as Uncle Terrance blocked his way out the door.

"Ta show David and Terry my new toy." He replied confidently.

King Sol shook his head. "Not right now you are not. It is late, or have you not noticed?" Endy blinked turning to stare up at his father. "Terrance, did you say you both ate in town?"

"Hai, Onii-sama. Did you want me to look over t hose documents tonight?"

Nodding, Sol rose to his feet. "Come, Endymion. You are showering with me tonight, remember?"

"Hai!!"
