*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Endymion lied awake in his bed. Staring at the moon that shone through his skylight. The Moon was so beautiful, it reminded him of Serenity's gorgeous glow. He slammed the pillow over his face. There he went again thinking of the one woman he couldn't have, for she was under attack by a man who wanted to kill the royal Earthen family and they couldn't risk losing their only son, let alone should his parents care about his happiness.
A knock sounded on his door and he sighed and turned on his side intent on ignoring it, he wanted nothing to do with whom was behind it and he didn't wish to find out, for he most likely knew. The knock came even more persistent and finally stopped, but then the handle jiggled. He sighed and sat up in his bed.
"5.... 4...3...2...1"
"Endyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!" Came a horrible shriek from the outside of his door. "I here to comfort youuuuuuuuuuuu!" She called rapping on the door again. Endymion glared at the door and then stepped from his bed, wearing only pajama pants. He ran a hand through his disheveled hair. He walked around his room and dressed in his armor that hung close to his bed. He sighed and walked to the balcony doors. The knocking became louder and her voice reached higher decibels, then he thought possible. He unlocked the balcony doors, opened them quickly and closed them, locking them with a key he held around his neck.
"No one will know!" He said as he descended down into his garden haven. The only thing that ever aloud him peace from the outside world and his only chance to openly think of Serenity, the woman he had met on The Moon so long ago. Her birthday was soon, he knew, thanks to Kunzite. He had received a personal invite from Queen Selenity. The invitation told him the day and time the glorious ball would be held and that here daughter did not expect him, so he would be the gift from her mother. He reached the middle of the garden and there in the gazebo, was a teleporting device only used and known by the royal family. He walked into the gazebo and stood in the middle.
"Transport me to the Moon!" He called out. The gazebo slowly became full of light as he was transferred to the Moon. He appeared in the teleportation room of the Moon palace and was met by his own generals, along with the court of the princess, Sailor Mars, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Venus, each one standing in front of one of the generals.
"Welcome Prince Endymion of Earth!" Spoke the sailor in the orange fuka, the one know as Sailor Venus. "We are glad that you have come to attend Princess Serenity's eighteenth birthday Celebration, announcing that she will become queen soon. Our princess has been miserable since you left, she has done nothing but mope around the palace and lie in her bed thinking of no one but you. She knows not of the generals and there presence in trying to help locate Nester. We thank you for everything you have done for her in secret." She continued as she and the rest of the people in the room, moved to one knee.
"No I have you wonderful people to thank for taking care of her, when I could not be by her side and care for her. I trust that she was not touched?" He questioned.
"I accidentally brushed against her one morning!" Spoke Kunzite. "She changed, and ran away, not knowing that it was me." He spoke honestly as he stood. "Since that time she has only done so by her self and in the sanctity of her forest." He added.
"Where is Serenity now?" He asked for getting the formality.
"She is getting ready for the ball!" Spoke a long unheard voice from the doorway of the teleportation area.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Serenity awoke to the chilly wind that blew through her window. The day was warm, but the wind sent a chill up her spine, for it was cold. She reached for her blankets and her fingers grazed Endymion's cape. She looked at herself and realized that she wore her dress from yesterday. She must have fallen asleep thinking of Endymion again. She quickly brought the cape to her and inhaled the scent of him. This called her nerves and warmed her body. She placed the cape over her. She soon fell asleep, dreaming of no one but the man that had captured her heart.
****
A loud wrap on her door awakened Serenity. She jutted out of bed and felt the cold air hit her skin. She looked out her balcony window and saw that she had slept most of her birthday away. The knock sounded on her door again.
"Come in!" She called before a yawn took over. The door opened to reveal her mother.
"Serenity! You should be ready for the ball, why are you dressed in the dress you wore yesterday?" She asked stepping into the room completely and closing the door behind her quickly.
"I fell asleep, and dreamt of Endymion!" She voiced, seeing the look her mother always gave her when she brought Endymion up. "I know, I know, He is one man out of many Serenity, he is not the only man that seems to love you."
"Sere...."
"Mother! He is truly the only man alive that can touch me, not another soul holds his blood. The blood running through him, allowing him to be the only one who can hold me close. You have no idea how it feels, to only be able to be held by one man, whom can touch your skin and love you, even for being what I am." She hollered forgetting to whom she was talking to.
"Serenity!" He mother said, drawing her daughter full attention to her. "Child you know not of what I was going to say." She smiled knowingly. "I was going to ask if you would like my assistance in picking out a dress to wear." She spoke moving to Serenity's wardrobe. She opened the doors and pulled out the dress she had worn, when she had first danced with the only man whom could touch her. It was a dress that could not be worn with gloves and it was also the style of dress she would wear when she was queen.
"No mother, you can't make me wear that!" She said stepping to the floor and holding Endymion's cape around her.
"I am afraid that you must child! Tonight is the night the people of the kingdoms meet there soon to be queen! This is the formal dress for the occasion and by law you must wear it!" She spoke sadly. Serenity clutched Endymion's cape to her and began to cry.
A few moments later the cape was ripped from her grasp and thrown onto the bed.
"Serenity!" Her mother scowled. "I do not do this to hurt you child, I do it for I must, now I can help you dress or you may dress yourself!" Spoke the queen heartbroken that her daughter had to endure the pain of it all. Secretly she held a smile of satisfaction, for inviting the prince to come, Serenity would be happy once again.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The ball moved through the night and Serenity walked out onto the balcony, away from the prying eyes of men, they scared her not to mention that if one touched her she would turn into the golden Hind. The last time that had happened to her was in the scouts' wing; she had brushed against a man and changed. She ran with out looking to see who it was, but that was the only experience that she had ever had, since Endymion had left a while ago. She walked to the edged and sat down on it. She then turned her eyes to the Earth and sighed heavily.
"Why do you seem so sad lady?" Came a voice. Serenity turned and found that Artemis was not that far away. Serenity smiled as the white cat jumped into her lap and sat down.
"I haven't seen Endymion in a long time and I truly miss him" She confessed while looking to the Earth.
"Artemis!" Called Luna from the garden below.
"I am sorry my Princess, but Luna seeks my advice!" He said. She smiled as he jumped over the edge and landed on all four paws, and then bounded off with Luna.
"Princess?" Came a male voice from the door.
"I do not wish to dance, sir I have hurt my ankle." She lied not taking her eyes away from the Earth. The figure silently moved behind her.
"Then I shall carry you back to your room!" He said lifting her from her place on the edge of the balcony. Instantly forgetting she could not touch men, she flung her arms around his neck and held on tightly. Suddenly she realized that she was not aloud to touch men. She looked to her rescuer and found a white mask covering his eyes. She waited for the change to occur, but it never did. He began to walk down the stairs into the garden. Tears sprang to her eyes. Something had gone wrong, only Endymion was allowed to touch her
"Stop!" Who are you and why can you touch me?" She bawled. He stopped walking instantly and she felt his eyes on her, but could not see him, due to her tears. She then found her face into his chest and her feet on the ground and his arms holding her firmly. She sniffed and instantly recognized the smell. It was roses and chocolate. Endymion was holding her. She pulled back shocking him and snatched his mask off his face, the blue eyes shown brightly as she took in his features. She stared at him shocked.
After a moment his lips grazed hers softly and she blinked her tears away and looked into Endymion's eyes, then to his face and saw how close they were. Serenity licked her lips and looked into Endymion's eyes and saw something in them she had never seen, but it was gone as soon as it had appeared. She moved forward and paced a few kisses on his lips, until her took her lips and slipped his tongue in her mouth, she matched him and wrapped her arms around his neck, while he drew her closer to him and held her tightly around the waist.
Serenity stood on her toes and pulled Endymion closer to her, as she did so she lost her footing and slipped, breaking their kiss and almost falling. Endymion held onto her tightly and cracked a smile.
"Endymion? Are you okay, did I hurt you?" She asked. He smiled at her.
"No my love, are you hurt?" He asked.
"... No...." She said trailing off and placing her feet back on the stair. Endymion swiftly picked her up and walked back up the stairs. As he reached the top of the stairs he placed Serenity on the marble floor away from the stairs.
"May I have that dance now?" He asked. She looked up at him and said nothing.
"What is wrong love?" He asked concerned that she was not speaking with him. She reached out and took a hold of his tuxedo coat and pulled herself close to him, he instantly wrapped his arms around her and looked concerned. "What is wrong?"
"I lost your mask!" She said. "I dropped it when I almost fell."
He chuckled.
"I'm also thinking this is a dream. I've dreamt something like this for so many days, that I can't truly determine if I am dreaming." She confessed. He raised her chin to look at him.
"Happy Birthday my dear sweet Serenity!" He said before he took her lips in and Earth shattering kiss. They pulled apart due to lack of air and she laid her head on his chest and gripped his shirt.
"Thank-you Endymion, this has been the most wonderful birthday that I've ever had." She said, one hand falling to her side.
"I'm glad!" He said. "Come let us go in." He asked stepping away from her and walking toward the doors.
"Yes Endymion lets!" She said a smile slowly growing over her face. The hand that had dropped earlier to her side held an arrow with a blood on the tip. Oh Endymion!" She called. He turned around just as she raised the arrow. His face fell and all the color drained from his face as the arrow was shot from a bow that appeared out of nowhere. It headed straight for Endymion. He dared not to move, fearful that it might hit someone else.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Sailor Saturn!" Called Sailor Mercury.
"Yes! I have said my good-bye to the princess and I leave her in your capable hands." Sailor Saturn said walking all the way into the room, toward the teleportation deck. Endymion stepped off the deck as Mace entered the room carrying two bags.
"Are you leaving?" Asked Endymion.
"I am and Mace as well, in the last six months, the girls have been trained and are strong guardians, they will no longer need my assistance. Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune shall stay a few more months and then we will be assigned to our posts and remain there protecting what we are told." Sailor Saturn spoke as she yanked the bags from Mace's hands and threw them on the deck, then she and Mace stepped onto the deck.
"Sailor Saturn?" Questioned Sailor Mars.
"No Sailor Mars, I am not leaving to get away from anyone, least of all our princess, but I am need home, my mother has become ill and I am needed to rule in her place." She spoke, a single tear falling from her eyes. "I will see you again someday, like at my wedding." She said s smile covering her face, I especially wish for Serenity and Endymion to be a big part of it, as well as you all." She said.
"Ho.... Sailor Saturn, we must leave, time is not on our side, only a few moments left." Mace said.
"Good-bye Guardians, Generals and My prince!" She said moving to one knee. Remember to protect her Endymion, she will need you and you will need her, don't allow yourself to be fooled." They disappeared as Sailor Saturn finished her sentence.
"What did he mean when he said, 'only a few moments left." Asked Sailor Jupiter.
"There is only a certain amount of time once a day to teleport between here and Saturn." Sailor Mercury replied.
"Come we must allow Endymion time to get ready." Sailor Venus suggested.
"Right!" The rest of the girls said.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"I can dress myself, thank you mother!" Serenity spoke taking the dress gently from her mother.
"Very well, I hope to see you soon at the ball my dear." Queen Selenity said as she walked out of the room, closing the door behind her.
Serenity walked into her bathroom and showered quickly. When she emerged from the bathroom she wore the dress her mother had instructed her to wear and her hair was placed in the usual hairstyle, of two buns with hair flowing down from each of them. As Serenity put on the last of her jewelry, she was knocked from the chair she sat in. Her arm had a gash in it.
"I told you I would return and now I shall kill you!" Screamed Nester as he ran at her with a sword. Serenity tried to dodge, but didn't manage too. The sword cut her in the stomach and ripped her dress, that was now drenched, in placed, from her own blood. The entire time Serenity ran from Nester all she could think about was Endymion. Her blood if it pierced his skin, would kill him. This made her determined to dodge every swing. The battle raged on until Nester threw an almost dead Serenity on to her bed, covered almost completely in blood and cuts.
"You know the sad thing my dear!" Endymion has come for your birthday celebration. He most likely awaits you to arrive, so he can sweep you off your feet." He cackled crazily.
"Aris!" He called. Aris appeared in the window and walked into the room. She gasped at what she saw.
"I believe I have killed two birds with one stone, hen hen hen!" He laughed.
"Maybe so! What would you like me to do?" She asked.
"Simple, become the princess, seduce Endymion and then allow me time to kill him." He answered sounding annoyed.
"Would it not be more easy for me to kill him?" Aris questioned.
"You tried that and failed, so we shall do it this way." He growled while tensing up his fist.
"I must have something that belongs to that person in order to take over their identity." She replied.
"Here!" He tossed her the sword, covered in her blood. She caught it and gasped, then looked at Serenity again. She was barley awake looking scared.
"Her blood will work right?" He asked.
"Not if it's going to kill me!" She said disgusted.
"It won't kill you, your a woman, the blood only kills the royal family of Earth and the men of the moon." He barked. "Get going!" He yelled as he walked out the open window.
Aris pricked herself with the bloodied sword and instantly took over Princess Serenity's identity. She walked to the door, took one last look at the room and the princess. "I never intended on killing you, I only wanted you to suffer," she confessed sadly before she walked out of the room, closing the door behind he.

"I told you I would return and now I shall kill you!" Screamed Nester as he ran at her with a sword. Serenity tried to dodge, but didn't manage too. The sword cut her in the stomach and ripped her dress, that was now drenched, in placed, from her own blood. The entire time Serenity ran from Nester all she could think about was Endymion. Her blood if it pierced his skin, would kill him. This made her determined to dodge every swing. The battle raged on until Nester threw an almost dead Serenity on to her bed, covered almost completely in blood and cuts.
"You know the sad thing my dear!" Endymion has come for your birthday celebration. He most likely awaits you to arrive, so he can sweep you off your feet." He cackled crazily.
"Aris!" He called. Aris appeared in the window and walked into the room. She gasped at what she saw.
"I believe I have killed two birds with one stone, hen hen hen!" He laughed.
"Maybe so! What would you like me to do?" She asked.
"Simple, become the princess, seduce Endymion and then allow me time to kill him." He answered sounding annoyed.
"Would it not be more easy for me to kill him?" Aris questioned.
"You tried that and failed, so we shall do it this way." He growled while tensing up his fist.
"I must have something that belongs to that person in order to take over their identity." She replied.
"Here!" He tossed her the sword, covered in her blood. She caught it and gasped, then looked at Serenity again. She was barley awake looking scared.
"Her blood will work right?" He asked.
"Not if it's going to kill me!" She said disgusted.
"It won't kill you, your a woman, the blood only kills the royal family of Earth and the men of the moon." He barked. "Get going!" He yelled as he walked out the open window.
Aris pricked herself with the bloodied sword and instantly took over Princess Serenity's identity. She walked to the door, took one last look at the room and the princess. "I never intended on killing you, I only wanted you to suffer," she confessed sadly before she walked out of the room, closing the door behind he.
