A few notes before we begin.
Kitty-demon 92- Thank you for you review sorry for the typo of your name.
DMS- Thanks, I haven't quite decided on the couple yet. They do make a cute pair though.
Lady Serenity-Thank you kindly.
Thanks to everyone who reviewed even if I forgot to address you personally.
I don't own any part of these two shows.
Serenity brushed her long golden locks staring deeply into the oval mirror. Fondly remembering a time of sitting in front of her moonstone vanity, her mother gently brushing her hair.
"Momma, this isn't the royal hairstyle." Serenity pointed out.
Selenity laughed at her young daughter, finishing her looped single ponytail. "You are training with your father today." She said hugging her daughter.
"Try to go easy on me, okay princess." Her father asked standing in her doorway.
"Nope!" Serenity stated sticking her tongue out at her father. Selenity giggle at her daughter's spunk, Apollo rushed over and picked up Serenity. He twirled his baby girl around, then tucked her under his arm marching the direction of the training arena. "Hey! I can walk!" Serenity exclaimed at her father.
Apollo looked down, a mischievous grin on his face. "That's nice." He said and continued to carry her. Selenity gleefully laughing at the training pair.
"Mom!" Serenity shouted at her mother, pouting.
Apollo stopped and raised an eyebrow at his girls. He leaned his head down toward his daughter. The grin spreading, itching with the fun revenge he had planned.
"Hey angel, want to get mom back for laughing at us?" Apollo asked glancing at his daughter. She nodded her agreement. "Alright, how about a tickle attack?" He offered. Serenity concurred with fever. Apollo gazed to his wife; the grin full spread, and eyes twinkling. Selenity raised a sculpted brow at her family.
Apollo placed Serenity down and, "Tickle Attack!" He shouted. Apollo picking Selenity up and placing her on the bed in Serenity's room. Serenity leaping at her mother hands stretch and ready. Three different laughs flew through the moon's castle, filling it with light.
Serenity's reminiscing was cut short by a soft call and gentle shake. "Seren, dad's waiting for us." Magick said. Serenity nodded and finished fixing her hair. "Race you!" Magick shouted running out of the room, Serenity hot on his heels. Speeding past Dark Magician Girl.
"No running in the house." She reminded the two blurs. The reminder fell on deaf ears drowned by laughter. She shook her head and started to pick up fallen objects knocked over in the rush. A small smile on her face, "Thank you Serenity, Magick was such a shy, and quiet child." She whispered.
"I won!" was the declaratory statement from one of the panting children.
"No fair, you know the house better!" came the answer from the other winded child. Once they caught their breath they glanced up. Serenity's eyes were drawn to the new child standing next to the Dark Magician. She studied the child curiously. Medium light blonde hair hung to the shoulders, which spiked at the ends. Eyes a light purple hue. A white short-sleeved robe's top and black long pants. Soft black shoes adorn the feet, the arms were crossed and personality closed off. Serenity cluck to herself at the silent power surrounding him. She leaned closer to Magick, a question swimming in her eyes.
"Who is that?" She asked gesturing to the person next to Dark Magician.
"Him? That is Marik of the Ishtar's , a family of tomb keepers." He answered.
"Cool, I'm going to say hello." Serenity chirped, rushing toward Marik.
"Wait!" Magick yelped, too late to stop her. "He is not the world's most nicest person." He mumbled to himself, stalking to his sister.
Serenity reached Marik with eagerness of a new friend. Marik's eyes slanted at her, closing him off more. "Hi! I am Serenity, why are you wearing long pants in the hot sun?" She happily asked him, awaiting his answer. Dark Magician kept a silent eye on them, along with his son.
Marik was uncomfortable with this energy being forced upon him, blissfully ignoring his slightly cold behavior. Dark Magician interfered with the building tension.
"Serenity, this is Marik Ishtar, he is the son of our neighbors." Dark Magician introduced him. "He will be training with us." He added. Dark Magician rotated to the boy. "Marik, this Serenity, my daughter." He told him, hoping the light of Serenity would open the boy up.
"Tch, be careful princess you could break a nail." Marik said, challenging her with his stance. Serenity smirked in return, a challenge indeed.
"Well, will see who will break a nail." She simply responded slipping into a comfortable stance her father taught her.
The two Dark Magician's watch the scene with peaked interest. Magick turned to his father, one eye on his sister, if she needed him. "Seren's going to beat him, isn't she dad?" He asked. Dark Magician laughed and petted his son's head.
"Well, we will see, but she's got mom rooting for her." He said pointing to the window.
Dark Magician Girl was watching her angel take on the cold male. "You can do it Serenity, show him true female power." She shouted encouragingly. "Sorry Dear!" She apologized to Dark Magician.
"Let us make this a little interesting." Serenity suggested.
"You have my attention, princess." Marik remarked
"I win, you tell me a secret, you win, I'll tell you one." Serenity proposed to her opponent confidant in her abilities.
"You're on!" Marik agreed.
Dark Magician stepped in between the two. "Alright, there is an obstacle course set before you, the first one down and back with the spell card in hand wins." He said setting the ground rules. "On my mark." He stated raising his staff, he let a jet of spiral energy out, and the children took off.
Serenity with her lean form and sayian inheritance reached the spell card first. Marik just barely after, grabbing his spell card too. They race neck and neck down to the finish line, both crossing the same time.
"You tied!" Magick shouted at the end.
"We tied?" They both exclaimed Dark Magician nodded.
"Then we both have to tell each other a secret." Serenity said.
"Fine!" Marik agree.
Marik trusting the young girl told her of his fear of the initiation into the tomb keepers, at the coming of age. Serenity in exchange of trust told of where she came from and fear of what was happening there. She also gave Marik a pinky-swear promise she would not let him go through the ritual by himself. Marik surprise by the concern of his fear, smiled childishly at her. Offering his hand, "Friends?" he asked.
"Friends!" exclaimed Serenity, grabbing Marik's hand. "Now, let's go celebrate with milk and cookies!" She screamed dragging Marik into the house. Laughter swelling from everyone around. They finish training that day and Marik went home promising to meet Serenity and Magick at the bazaar tomorrow.
Later when Serenity went to her room for the night, Fate and Destiny were waiting.
"You held back." Fate pointed out.
"Yep, it was more fun crossing together, everyone wins." Serenity explained. "I made a new friend." She added.
"Indeed you did." Destiny agreed then the sister's put her to bed.
"Good-Night, tell everyone I love them." Serenity said.
"We're sure they know." They promised leaving in a sparkle of stars.
The fact her father is a sayian helps give her a physical advantage. Also, it helps her determine whether an approaching person is a threat or not. A Lunarian can read eyes very well and are gifted with empathy, but that can only work at close range. At the bazaar she meets more then Marik.
