Chapter 4
Ding-dong. Ding-Dong. Darien ran from the extra bedroom and towards the door. He checked himself in the mirror by the door then took a deep breath looks toward the clock, it states 8pm. Mumbles about time and opened the door, 'I hope she likes her temporary room'
"Hey Serena." Mouth dry all of a sudden. "C-come on in." Darien stuttered slightly.
"Darien thanks again for doing this, this means a lot to me you have no idea." Serena replied as she walked into the house. 'Wow he looks incredibly hot, wait what am I thinking?'
"No problem I would do anything for MY princess, here let me get you bag." Darien smiled at her slightly then, he got a good look at her outfit. 'Wow, she looks so hot if possible more then usual' Darien led her to the couch and motioned for her to sit down. An awkward silence followed then Serena started.
"OH, I almost forgot I have to tell you what happened at my house when I was packing." Serena replied then started to relay the events leading up to now.
"Wow, do you think they are still at your house?" Darien asked.
"Probably. Raye's probably still trying to figure if that was me in the house or not. you know she stubborn as hell." Serena commented.
"So you snuck out?" Darien asked 'Where did she get those clothes, why hasn't she ever decided to wear that for me. eh before. now that is.' *mental blush*
"Yep, I put on all black and I left using some of Sailor Moon's abilities by jumping from building to building," Serena replied.
"If you don't mind me asking where did you get that outfit?" Darien asked with a raised eyebrow.
"N-no I don't mind you asking. *Blushes* I got it from my older brother. He's a big model in some company and he visits from time to time, brings me the latest stuff or sends it in."
"Really, a model for what company" he asked with interest. 'I wonder if he is in the same company as Rosalyn'
"You know what I have no idea. Last I heard he was in California. I haven't heard from him in months, I get emails every few weeks. I haven't really heard anything for about 3 or 4 months, he could be in Europe for all I know."
"So are you sure you want to do this. I mean I plan to stay with Rosalyn in California for a few months then we'll be traveling all over the world for one or two years, with the modeling company.
*Blushes* I'm probably going to have to model and if you come you probably will too."
"Yes I really want to do this but I don't want them to find me until I'm ready. I want to prove them all wrong. I know I can do it but I need to get out of here and away from their negative feelings towards me. As for modeling. I don't know. I'm not sure if I'll be able to do. that. I'll do something else for them or. something." 'Did he blush earlier or is it just me?'
"Serena, I'm sure you can do the modeling thing it's just a pain in the ass to deal with. You can do anything you put your mind to. I mean come on you deal with the supernatural plus all the Nega warriors' everyday and still manage school, and family. Most girls I know wouldn't be able to handle it. you know. that kind of pressure.
"Thanks Darien it means a lot to me that you think that. I'm still not sure about the modeling thing though; we'll have to see when we get there. If I get asked to model then I'll have to really think about it but I highly doubt it."
"Serena I'm sure you'll get asked... but the only problem is well uh." Darien started as he stood and circled Serena.
"WHAT? What is it"
"Well, please don't take this the wrong way but your style is... uh easy to recognize." Darien stated as he gestured towards her hair. "Meatball head. I'm pretty sure that if the girls saw you in some big fashion magazine they will come to get you."
"Well. I think that we should change our looks then. because I'm pretty sure that they will recognize you on site and you never know, they might link me to you."
"How will they link me to you?" Darien asked.
"I mean come on. I go missing and the next day you leave besides, what about Tuxedo Mask. Sailor Moon takes off then Tuxedo Mask disappears Hint. Hint. Sailor Moon, Tuxedo Mask. Serena and Darien."
*Grimaces*. "All right you've made you point. Rosalyn can help us in the makeover department. Besides, like I said before she has the power of quintessence. all magic. she might be able to teach us how to do a personal glamour."
"What's a personal glamour?" Serena asked curiously.
*Raises an eyebrow* "A personal glamour basic magic. It helps you change you appearance. You can do small changes like your eye color for instance or big changes like your hair color or giving yourself a tan."
"Ooooh how would you like me as a brunette with hazel eyes?" Serena asked excited.
"How would you like me as a blonde?" Darien replies and Serena looks at him. *Raises an eyebrow*
"Perhaps brown hair with. No I'll go blonde with green eyes." He states sarcastically. "Naw, I'll just change my eye color and a few of my facial features."
"Point taken. I think I'll stay the same except my eyes and my hairstyle. Ooh can I change my body type?" Serena asked excited.
"You mean go from curvy to extremely curvy. or like." *Blushes* "Like. a size 36A to a 36C cup?"
*Blushes* "Yeah I guess. you know like plastic surgery without the surgery right?"
"Well, you can try to change your shape err... your body shape and most can do it but it's a wasted effort on others who can do a glamour. Plus cameras can't take too much magic, it will come out as a blur."
"Oooh cool." Serena states excited. "But would that happen if we use glamour on our hair and eyes?"
"Well, to not waste energy we should use contacts for our eyes and the use of glamour added to some of our features won't affect the camera, besides Rosalyn does it all the time,"
"Yeah, some shapeshifters that are high in rank, they can sculpt their body at will, also some fey can do a very good personal glamour." Replied Darien.
"Shapeshifters as in like werewolves. and. did you say fey like as in fairies. I thought they didn't exist?" Serena asked.
"Yeah, werewolves, wererats, wereleopards, Etc." Darien started.
"Wait, do you mean they dooo exist!!!" Serena exclaimed
"You mean to tell me that after all the fighting as Sailor Moon you don't believe that anything is possible." Darien Explained.
"Yeah, yeah I believe that anything is possible but. how come we haven't seen any shapeshifters?" Serena asked.
"Most people can't sense shapeshifters so most can't tell the difference from. human to shapeshifters or even vampires, since most play humans." Darien continued to explain.
"What, so vampires exist too. why haven't we heard about them here in Japan and how do you know about these things?" Serena asked curiously.
"Well, Vampires exist every but in the USA and they are one of the few countries that at least semi acknowledge them." Darien answered.
"So Japan doesn't acknowledge them, what other countries besides the USA does?" Serena continued.
"Well. France acknowledges them but they haven't really taken the steps as the US has. How else do you think that we have managed to fight these monsters without being shot, I think that since we exist, people just assume that vampires, shapeshifters and others are just a form of us."
"How do you know so much about these things?"
"Ehh well Rosalyn lives in California and they are very liberal compared to other states. Also, we were born in France and left when we were pretty young."
"Really how old were you guys?" Serena asked. 'I hope he opens up I really want to get to know him.'
"I was 16 when I left France to move here to study. Rosalyn was lets see she's 18 now and she left about 3 years ago so I guess she was 15 when she left."
"YOUR!!! From FRANCE. where's you accent?" Serena asked.
"Well, it's been 4 years since I've been there soo that's why my accent is kinda undetectable."
"Okay." Serena answered smiling towards him.
Darien looks up towards the mantel and looks at the clock. It reads 11pm 'man time sure fly's whenever I'm with her.'
"Serena, it's getting kinda late. how about a tour of the apartment and I'll show you your room. I've already packed and sent most of my stuff to St. Louis so there's not much here except furniture and the T.V that's about it."
"Sure, that sounds great and that explains why there's like no pictures or anything in here."
'Uhh O-okay let her think that's why' Darien thought.
Christina/Rosalyn's POV
I walked slowly towards the Gates at St. Louis airport. 'Man this place is packed, I'm so happy I'm not here to fly out of town again' I'm here to pick up my brother, Endymion in a flight from Japan.
'Goddess I really hate airports. Endy should have just taken the jet onto a privet airfield' I looked up at the monitor to find the gate and to make sure it's on time.
'Gate 42 Tokyo to St. Louis is on time, thank Goodness.' I started towards Endy gate and thought. 'I lost the press Thank you' I had to put on quite a heavy glamour to change my appearance to lose them for sure.
I can't believe I had to put on this heavy glamour just to get though the sea of media.' Someone leaked that I was headed towards the airport. 'Thank goddess no knew which airport I was headed too or better yet the fact that I was a master at a personal glamour.'
Oh By the way I'm Christina Haley well, that's one of my aliases. My real name is Rosalyn Shields; my actual title is Princess Rosalyn Christina Shields III of the Earth Kingdom. My brother Endymion Darien Shields II Prince of the Earth Kingdom is the masked hero Tuxedo Mask in Tokyo, Japan. He just recently received his memories of the past like a couple of nights ago. it's about a year after I did but Pluto told me, not to say anything.
'Thank goodness for this glamour or I would be hounded by the press forever. I use it all the time for various of different reasons; different looks and to avoid the press.' I looked at my watch and made a left towards gates 40 though 45 and started to walk at a faster pace. 'I hope I make it before the plane gets in.
Normally, I have long black hair that's so black it looks like the time of midnight. My hair also has pure silver streaks woven all around my head and believe it or not it's all natural. My eyes are a midnight blue color that changes to different shades of blue accordingly to my moods.
Now, with the glamour my hair is a deep rich red. It's a bit outrageous but completely human, as for my eyes they are a bright green. A glamour is magic to help change you appearance, it's one of the most basic type of magic. I actually look like I could be at least part fey but that's just with this glamour look.
For me personally both styles made me look like I have non-human beauty but I'm classified a human. 'I guess you can say I'm human. I mean I'm more from the Earth then everyone else is.' I took a look around 'humph. I really dislike the press they are quite annoying.'
I saw the gate and I sat down at the nearest bench to wait for the plane to come in since so far it was on time. So I've had a few offers of marriage but the Earth and my brother must consent to the offer. Majority of the monsters know about our family line and want to be apart of it.
My brother understands that I want to marry for love... and if he's a Prince then so be it. I won't marry just for power and stasis and I will be in the court with or without the marriage, the marriage will just help my rank.
This is why I'm here in California; I came to think things out. Then I got "discovered" by some talent agent who suggested the modeling gig. I took it for the extra cash but I've become pretty famous, so I make use of the glamour so I can get other jobs.
The only problem is that if I work someplace with people with some sort of powers. such as vampires, shapeshifters or even animators. They can sense magic and some can tell that I'm not exactly human, but I've gotten pretty good at hiding what I am and that I have magical talent. Someday I'm good at it some days I'm not, it comes and goes.
'I can't wait to see Endy all grown up... he probably wont recognize me in this glamour... but he will sense me that much is for sure. I think I will take off this glamour as soon as the flight lands. and I see him.' I looked around for one thing mainly and that was the press. The last thing I needed was the press to say I was having a long distance romance with Endy.
"Flight 42 Tokyo to St. Louis coming in" I heard the over speaker say jerking me out of my memories.
'Thank Goddess the press had me classified me as human; otherwise, they would-of sent the press with magical abilities and would know if I was using magic on them.' I looked down at my outfit. I was wearing a black turtleneck tank top. and a black leather skirt.
I can say that with this sidhe scarlet hair and green eyes I knew I looked hot. I didn't change around my facial features like some lycanthropes can but I already have high cheekbones and tan skin that I knew it looked great. With the glamour I made me whiter then my normal tan so I looked more exotic. People at night think vampire but I'm not. obviously since it's currently 4:30pm. on Friday.
"Excuse me Miss."
