Okay I had a good idea for a story..so I thought id give it a shot! Tell me
what you think! All right? R&R!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Minako brushed out her long golden mane. Paying special attention to the
top. Making it shine in the sun. Today her and her mother were going to
visit Haruka and her family on Uranus. Well at least that was why she was
going! Her mom was going to visit Haruka's mom.
She had to make her mom proud! Her mom expected her to act like a lady. Well, that was harder for her than it should be.Even though she was a princess she was as wild as a wolf.
She had inherited her mothers beauty. Her body was very mature and developed. She was about 5' 7 and 140 pounds. Her skin was the perfect shade and her complexion was wonderful.
Most people thought her life was perfect but...well it wasn't. She was very lonely. Not that there weren't alot of people around, but they all treated her like she wasn't even human.
She heard a polite cough at the door. She turned and saw her bodyguards waiting for her.
"Coming! "She called.
She turned and gracefully walked down the stairs determined to look like a lady. They walked down to the throne room where her mom sat. Looking as matronly as she always did.Her face a mask of perfection. Minako continued walking as best as she could in the high heels her mom demanded her to wear. She felt her mom's scrutinizing look run over her body .
Please be happy! Please be happy! Her mind begged.
"Stand up straighter!" Her Mother called to her. "Annabelle put some padding in that bra and tighten her corset!"
Annabelle, her mom's handmaiden walked over to her and dutifully did as she was told.
When she was finished her mom stood. "Now lets go! Can't be late now can we?"
They walked outside. Her mothers huge carriage waiting at the end of the stairs. Decorated with large red roses. Her mother put out her hand and her guard held out his hand to help her inside. Then her moms carriage pulled out, and was replaced with Minako's.
Minako's carriage was much smaller ,and instead of red roses it was decorated with small pink and white roses. Her mom said that they had separate carriages so that they would be more comfortable. But Minako knew it was really because her mom didn't want her "Big Entrance" goofed up because she had a clutz attack.
Her mother wasn't always this way. She was always as carefree and wild as her young daughter...until her father died. Somehow when it happened her mom had decided that perfection was the only way to live her life. And she had decided to take her daughter with her down that wild ride. Minako normally just shrugged it off though! Its not her mom was trying to be mean! It would pass, right?
"Ahem"
Minako was pulled out of her quiet musings when her guard politely coughed. She held out her hand and her bodyguard helped her into her carriage. She went up the stairs as gracefully as she could. And sat on the seat stuffed with feathers and covered with pillows. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* When they were finally there, Minako screamed in delight and ran to hug Haruka.But the high heels got in her way and she tripped. She looked up and her mom was giving her a shocked look that promised a "talk" later. Haruka's mom,ever the happy carefree one was giving her an entertained look.But unlike her moms look it only promised some light teasing later. Then her mom turned and walked away with Haruka's mom into the castle. Oh great,her mom has been disgraced again.
Haruka walked down the steps and pulled the high heels off. Giving her an amused look she asked. "What are these for, to make you taller?"
Minako laughed happily and said under her breath," ask my mom."
Haruka smiled." I figured as much."
Haruka helped Minako off the ground and they went up the steps toward her castle.
Minako loved it here. While Minako's castle was a temple for love and beauty. Haruka's castle was a temple for fighting. She loved to watch Haruka fight with her many brothers. She had a lot of brothers and sisters too, but in the kingdoms only the eldest was important. And all of the Senshi were the eldest.
Her bodyguards followed her up the steps. She looked at them out of the corner of her eyes. Oh great! T hey were going to follow her around the whole time! She was just going to have to put up with them. But Haruka seemed to have a different idea. She turned and looked at the bodyguards.
"We'll be providing her bodyguards."
"Well what are we supposed to do? The Queen has instructed us to not leave the princess's side."
"Stay and relax, or train. It's your choice but as I said there's no use for you to be around her."
"Fine! But don't tell the queen!"
"Deal!" Haruka smirked and turned around. " Lets go!"
They walked into the castle and up a lot of stairs. Haruka smiled as she stood in front of a hallway branching off from the main one.
"This is your hall. We had it redone to suit you perfectly!"
"Thank You!" Minako said walking into the hall. She stopped when she realized Haruka wasn't following her. "Aren't you coming? "She asked.
"I've got to go train. Your clothes have been put up in the bedroom closet. Just look around and get comfortable. I'll send you the best body guard we can."
Minako's eyebrows furrowed together." You mean you were serious about the bodyguard?"
Haruka smiled. "Yes,can't have you getting killed now can we?"
Minako sighed."I thought you were just acting so I could have some time alone!"
Haruka shook her head."Nope! We'll be providing you with the best bodyguard here. Second only to me!"
"Fine!"
Haruka seemed to be pleased that Minako would let her have her way. She waved and walked away.
Minako waved back and watched as the figure of her friend grew amaller and smaller until it winked out of existence.
She turned and looked at the hall.It was huge but then again she was a princess and she was supposed to be accomadated. She walked into the hall and stepped up to the first room. She turned the doorknob and walked into the bathroom.
In the middle of the room was a huge waterfountain. There was a huge mirror and a big plush carpet. She ran over and opened up the closet door. Inside was a wide selection of robes. Different sizes, colors and shapes. Wow! This was great lengths to go through just to please a guest! It looked inviting! When she was done touring she would come back and soak her bones tired from the long trip.
She walked over to another door and opened it. Inside was a couch, chair and desk. A pen and ink was set up on the table and the walls were covered with books. Oh great, she thought. Just what I need, more books!
She walked over and, to her suprise, found they were love stories. Okay she was definitely coming back here. Haruka knew her great interest in love stories and she realized the great lengths she had went to to make her happpy.
She turned and walked back into the hall.There was another door across the hall and she went to investigate. It was a huge room, inside were a wide variety of instruments that play themselves. There was a big tall roof that arched up to the sky,you could see the sky from here.The floor was decorated with pictures of people dancing in a field of flowers and the walls were painted to match. Another cool place to come back to!
She once again turned back into the hall.And she finally she went into the last door! It was her room. There was a huge feather bed covered with pillows, the carpet was so thick and soft most people would be happy to just sleep on it! It was all done in a peachy orange color with tints of yellow.Haruka knew her favorite colors. There was a balcony with the perfect view of the castle grounds.But Minako was to tired to check it out.
She turned and walked to her bed.She sat on her plush bed and took off her high heels.
There was a knock on the door. Panick flooded through her entire body! She sat up, should she open it? No Way!It could be her mom.Here to give her that "talk"That was promised in her eyes. With that thought she ran onto the balcony, looking for an escape.
Shouldn't there be a secret passage or something? She searche deverywhere as quickly as she could. Nope, only the jump from the balcony to the ground. She looked down, it was a long drop! A very long drop!
Then she heard the door click open. She could make it, she hoped. She gulped.
Oh well, here goes nothing! She thought her mind a rush of thoughts.
She jumped on the railing and looked down. This was high; she felt eyes on her back. She jumped, she began to fall and felt something grab her arms and jerked her easily back over the railing. Her butt hit the rail and she fell backward. Whoever it was jerked her up and sat her on her feet easily.
She turned to see who it was that had ruined her escape. She expected to see some burly man set as her guard. But instead she saw...... a boy?
He had messy brown bangs and Prussian blue eyes. He looked a lot like Haruka's dad!
She was a bit nervous; he probably wasn't trained in the way of a soldier yet! He was probably a little pervert or something! He would peek at her in the shower, or stare at her butt!
But something in his eyes told her that he wasn't like your average soldier!
"Excuse me! Who do you think you are!"
That's the way, she thought, you're totally in control.
"Hn"
She narrowed her eyes!
"Listen! You can leave! I don't need a bodyguard! I'm going to take a shower and you had better be gone when I get back."
The boy didn't say anything. He just stood there staring at the floor, acting like she wasn't even there!
There was no emotion on his face she noticed. She shivered as he turned his eyes up to meet hers. It felt almost like he was digging his way to her soul, uncovering her secrets. She turned away from him. She liked her secrets to stay that way.
She walked over to her closet and grabbed the first dress she saw.
Anxious to get out of the room she walked over to the door. She went out into the hall and walked up to the door that led to the bathroom. The hair on the back of her hair raised and she knew she was being followed.
She turned quickly, in a fighting stance. On hand on her transformation pen the other raised to block a punch. She stood there for a minute looking in all the crevices and cracks of the hall. And then she realized it! Right in the middle of the hall, in plain view stood that boy!
"Listen! Why are you here!" She said, her voice sharp as a knife and very angry.
"I am your guard." He said his voice monotone and unwelcoming.
"Well..."She said unsure of what to do, she had known she was going to get a bodyguard but around here she wasn't sure exactly what that meant.
Finding her voice she continued." Well I'm going to take a bath."
She turned and walked into the bathroom. Her face flushed when he followed her inside.
"What are you doing!"
"Protecting you.."He said casually. Casually!
"Umm.... Right. But I'm safe here. And. Well, now im going to take a bath." She explained as though she were talking to a child.
"Please go ahead."
Right then her control snapped, she had had enough. She walked over to the boy and raised her hand as though she were going to slap him. He didn't move. She threw her hand, it was mere centimeters from his face when he reached up and nonchalantly caught it! Turning her around he once again pushed her in the direction of the fountain.
"Leave!" She said her voice eerily calm. Sort of like the calm before the storm.
The boy didn't budge.
"Why won't you just leave?"
"Regulations say, I must be with you at all times."
"Couldn't you just break them?"
"No. I follow regulations with my life!" His face had no emotion but his eyes had a serious glint in them that said he was not to be argued with. When there eyes met she shivered again. Turning so their eyes no longer met she spoke.
"Fine but turn around!"
She looked over her shoulder to see if her command was obeyed.
The boy was respectfully turned around.
She nodded in satisfaction. Now if he didn't get too daring he would be just fine!
"By the way who are you."?
Without turning around the young man answered.
"My name is,Heero Yuy.Second born of the royal family of Uranus."
