Ok, here is another chapter to it. This one's going to be a little longer then the past four. So enjoy
Chapter 5: Letters and Birthdays
The little boy, not much older then Jeadite, walked down the hallway. He stopped though infront of him, a short distance, stood the little black haired princess of Mars.
"Raye. . ." He spoke.
"Mom said you would come, and you did." The little girl jumed up and down clapping.
"Ya, I guess." He rubbed his head. "Where's Jeadite?" Her face turned to a frown.
"He's my best friend, you can't steal him away now." She said stomping her foot.
"Na, you can have him as a best friend."
"Good, because he's not yours." That's when Jeadite's head popped out of a doorway.
"Darien!" He exclaimed. Dariend ran to him. "Long time, no see." The two boys began to talk not aware of the evil stare from the girl down the hallway. "In a few days I'll be joining you, right?"
"Ya, I can't wait!" Darien said. "We'll get to learn how to wuse powers and fight bad guys." Jeadite nodded.
"Ya."
"But your mother told. . ." Raye's meak voice trailed off. She ran down the hallway crying. Jeadite turned to see her run along with Darien.
"Maybe we should explain."
"Ya," Dariend said.
***************************
"O my goodness, it's gorgues!" Serena gasped. Before her stood a redish foutain/birdbath with a giant phonex "spitting" out water that was lit by a red light. Darien looked at the fountain closer.
"You could never buy this this way. It's custom made." Raye stood nervously in the doorway.
"Ya, I know." Raye said. "I wish the others where here. They could help me with this." Stepping outside she noticed an engraving. "To the fire sprited one who had my heart before this life time." She read outloud. Serena stared blankely at it.
"Could they know?" Serena said.
"It could be just an expression." Darien said. "Just a normal one."
"But considering we all had past lives, it's not normal." Raye said. She encircled the fountain. "Yesterday I got a letter with my gift saying they knew something I didn't."
"I'll bring Luna over, just a minute, I'll run home and get her. If someone knew, it would be her." Raye nodded as Serena left.
Dariend stared blankely at the fire scout.
"Raye I have a favor to ask you." He broke the silence. Raye turned.
"Anything, just ask."
"See I've been having these weird dreams and I want to know what they mean."
"Ya sure," She smiled. She smiled. 'Something to take my mind from these gifts.'
***************************
He could remember now. It drove him crazy though. He gazed at the young beauty across the street staring at her gift. She held so many secrets and yet knew none of them. Why would they torment her so? "She'll know eventully." He said to himself. "They can't keep the truth from her." He turned and left the street.
***************************
"Firefly. . ." Jeadite's voice said. Little Raye looked up wiping the tears away. "You knew one day this would come. I'm almost 12 and your 10. I have to go soon."
"I know Jed, but your my best friend and really my only friend." An anrey stare came from Darien. "Your a friend too Darien, but you and I are different." She looked back up at Jed's blue eyes. "You'll write, right?"
"Everyday."
"Will I ever see you again?" Raye asked.
"You're a princess, I protect the prince here, of course I'll see you again." He said. He took a tissue and held it toward her. "Friends forever, firefly?"
"If you don't stop calling me that you won't live to see 12." She said. He knew she didn't care if he called her that but it was a joke of theirs since they met. "Ya, friends forever." She hugged him. "And Darien. . ."
"What?" He asked.
"Let's head to the canyon." She said. "It's not fair, Mother wants us to go." He nodded and Jed smiled at the two. The three some headed out to the canyon.
***************************
Darien shot up again, sweating.
"What's wrong with me?" He told himself feeling his forehead. That crazy dream again had haunted him. It was a phonex. A dancing phonex, like the ones Raye had been getting. Then a happy family developed in the burning breast of the bird. That's when the burning began. The horrible burning. He hadn't gotten much sleep because of them. He thought they would just go away but never did. Once he got back to sleep the phonex would appear but then would twirl around a baby. This baby was wrapped in pink garmets which he concluded it was a girl. The baby would reach, her hands out to him but flames cut them from touching him.
He fell back in his bed. So many things clouded his mind now. How could he sleep? Raye was about to turn 18. Serena wanted him to go with her to pick out a gift for the young priestes but he was in no condition to go anywhere. He could get sick easily because of the lack of sleep he had.
The moon shown in from the curtans, it was about full tonight. In a few days, actully on Raye's birthday, it would be full and Mars would be in aline with it. That struck him as odd when he read it in the newspaper. Darien turned over and looked at his clock. "2:30." He whispered turning back to the other side. He was afraid to go back to sleep but he had no choice. He had to go shopping tomorrow after school with Serena. There was on way out of it unless he wanted her to be angry at him for some time. Sighing he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep again.
***************************
As Raye grew older their letters became more frequent. It was the pain they indured because they missed eachother.
"Dear Jed,
Tomorrow is my 12 birthday and I found out something great. In two days I will be going to the moon! I'll beable to see Earth from it everyday. It'll be like I'm your next door neighbor! I can't wait. Mom's all sad and your mother says hi. But I'm a guardian to a princess on the moon. Once I get my power's down I'll vist you more often and crazy Darien too. Say hi to him for me. I would write him but I hardly havetime to write you.
Always with Love
Raye"
He got it that day (Mail carries fast between royalty). Jed sat at the dinner table. In front was the king eyeing him with Darien at one side. The other guardians Kunzite, Nephlite, and Zoisite sat around him.
"So how's Raye?" The king asked.
"She's fine, sir." Jeadite said. "It's her birthday tomorrow." A snicker broke out from around him. "What?" He asked. No answer was given till the king left.
"Jeadite, how many letters do you two send?" Neplite asked.
"It's just we haven't seen each other for two years." Jeadite explained.
"Raye's your girlfriend." Zoisite blurted out witht he other's besides Darien agreeing. Jeadite got up angry.
"I don't care what you guys think, she's my best friend and nothing more." He started off toward his room. Darien got up eyeing them angrly.
"You do know who you're speaking about, right?" He asked. The others smiled's where wiped from their faces.
"Yes Darien." They said.
"Then I saggest you stop it." He left out the door his father left through. The three still sat there snickering.
Jed angry stomped to his room clutch the little letter. He shut the door and flung himself on his bed. Somethings where just horrible to endure.
***************************
Luna wanted to sneak out. Serena was going to corner her, she knew it. Why did this have to come up now?
"Luna," Her voice rang as she walked into the room. She wanted to jump out the window. Maybe she could. . . "Luna!" Her voice was more sturn. Sighing she turned to the princess.
"Yes Serena." She asked. Serena read her like a book.
"You where trying to leave. What is that bad you can't trust Raye or I with it? What's the explaination?"
"Serena. . ." Luna began. "Somethings just don't fit in this time or place, to much pain will be brought out by bringing the bats out of the closet." Serena sat beside her.
"What do you mean?" She asked. Luna did not want to bring this up. "What's so horrible that you can't say?" Luna sighed.
"It has to do with the Silver Millinum and Queen Beral. If that wasn't hard enough on us." Luna jumped down on the floor. "It really doesn't have anything to do with you." Serena looked at her cat.
"Then what does it have to do with?"
"The other girls, Lita, Mina, Amy, and Raye but not so much Raye."
***************************
Raye ran down the new halls. Everything was so large and beautiful. That's when she bumped into her. She had the oddest hair in the worlds.
"Sorry." Raye said. "I was just to excited." She looked up and round at the new surroundings.
"That's ok." The cheerful voice said. "You must be Princess Raye. . ." She turned and faced the strange haired girl.
"How did you know?" She asked.
"Just a guess." The girl said. "I'm Princess Serena."
"You're the one I'm here to protect?" Raye said. The princess nodded.
"Ya, I am. My mother is overly protectivee." Serena said. "But let's join the others. There out in the garden getting aquanted." Raye folled her. Such strang hair.
"Hey Princess. . ."
"Call me Serena." Serena said. "Everybody else does or will." Raye nodded at the girl who wasn't much younger then her. "So what's it like on Mars?"
"It's beautiful." Raye said. "The canals are large and big ships pass through them. Then there's the canyon. . ." She wasn't able to finish the sentence though because the doors opened to a giant garden.
There in the garden was three girls talking and chatting away. All the girls smiled and waved at Serena. That's when a servent came holding a letter. He stopped at Raye's side and stood there.
"Princess." He said. "You have a letter." She picked it up and the servent bowed and left. Raye opened it to see Jeadite's handwritting.
"Dear Firefly,
Hope I get the mailing address right. Happy Birthday even though it's a day late. Not much here. The training is intense. I hurt my shoulder yesterday but overall it's been a great few days. Hopefully see you soon, neighbor. Darien says hi and he says he'll write you too.
Love always
Jed"
Raye smiled looking up to see nobody but instead everyone was around her bunching reading it.
"Hey!" She said with a scowl. The girls rushed away giggling. Serena sat down at the edge of the fountain that sat in the middle of the garden.
"Firefly?" The blond with a bow asked.
"It's a name my mother called me and Jed just adopted it." Raye said putting the letter in her pocket. Serena looked around at the girls.
"I'm Serena, if you haven't guessed."
"I'm Mina." The one from before spoke with the bow.
"I'm Lita." A brown haired one said. The blue haired girl looked up from her book.
"I'm Amy." Serena pointed at all of them.
"Princess of Venu, of Jupitor, of Mercury, and this is Raye, Princess of Mars." They all hugged and such. "You are here to guard me." She stated. "But your really here to become my friends."
The girls all where smiling. "So," Serena got up. "Let's go have some fun."
Training sessions on the moon where tough. But as hard as it was the girls still grew in power, spirit, mind, and strenghth. Each scout, that's what they where called when transformed, went and did a specialized training program. Raye had spirit training, Amy academic training, Lita had endurence training, Mina had compassion training, and Serena had leadership training. They picked them by either their strenghths now or thier families strenths in the area.
It was in a week Raye's 18 birthday. It had been 6 years since she last saw Jeadite.
"Dear Jed,
The only thing in the universe I would want the most is to see you and Darien for my birthday. Training has been tough. My mother andyours is coming to the ball the Queen is throwing for me on my birthday. I h ope father comes too. I haven't seen him for a while either. I'll see you soon, hopefully.
Love always
Raye"
Jeadite had just completed the exersises for the day. He had finally gotten the time to read the letter. Darien had read his letter before him butr he was the prince, he could. Darien walked in the room after he got done reading Raye's letter. A smile was painted on his face.
"What?" Jeadite asked. Darien threw down a letter that had the royal Earth insigna on it. Jed picked it up. As he read it, his face started to beam.
"Are you sereous?"
"My father said we are to leave tomorrow, all of us." Darien was being hugged to death by Jeadite. "We'll be there mainly for traing and such but we'll be there for three months." Jeadite looked around.
"I got to get packing!" He said.
"Let's let the servents do that." Darien said. "But we got to inform the others about this." Jeadite nodded and they left the room.
The Queen had called a special meeting that day. Serena and Raye walked down the halls together. Lately they had become good friends.
". . .And we pushed him. . ." Raye's voice was herd saying. Serena laughed at it entering the thrown room. The Queen's face was upon them as they walked in. She then turned to the others.
"I have just been informed that the Earth prince and his guards will be joining us for the celebration next week but are coming tomorrow." Excitment went through the girls. "Now we must be formal tomorrow so once they come an announcement will ring through the palace. You must join up here for the formal ceramony." Raye's hand went up. The Queen turned to her.
"Yes Raye?"
"Will the king be there?" She asked. The Queen shook her head in no.
"There have been some attacks on villages on Earth. The king must stay and help fight." Raye nodded looking at Serena.
Finally, typing is done for now. I hope you like where this is going. Please review before you leave and as always thanks for reading.
