I'm BBAAAAACCCCKK!!!! I love writing, but I don't know how long I can keep
up this pace. Don't be worried if they aren't coming in every day it was
probably just that I didn't have time.
-Moon Falcon By the way, the ages are: Serenity: 18 Mina: 21 Lita: 21 Rei: 20 Ami: 19 Endymion: 20 Malachite: 24 Nephrite: 23 Jadeite: 22 Zoicite: 21
****************************************
After their brief introductions, Endymion and his generals were led away to their rooms as Serenity and the inner princesses ran off to their chambers to gossip and compare thoughts.
*********************************
"I don't like any of them." Lita spouted with a frown, "I just don't get the right feeling from them."
"Oh, Lita! You're just saying that because the cute brunette kept staring at you." Said a giddy Mina, "Besides, did you guys get a look at all of them? They were GORGEOUS!"
"Personally, I liked that white haired general. He was quite the man, in my opinion." Rei put in.
Mina scowled, "Hands off, Martian, he's mine!"
"I wouldn't be so sure" Rei retorted, "He had his eyes all over me"
"Did not!"
"Did so!"
"DID NOT!"
"DID SO!"
"Girls, cut it out." Ami said quietly. She gave them a meaningful glare while motioning to Serenity. All of the princesses looked up to see their friend sitting on her bed deep in thought.
"Hey ditz, what's up? Trying to think for once?" Rei said with a grin.
"I'm not in the mood, Rei" she replied softly, shaking her head in dismay, "Did you see him? He's possibly the most handsome guy I've ever laid eyes on. What am I going to do? I'm like dirt compared to him."
The other princesses stood stiffly for a moment.but suddenly keeled over laughing, holding their aching stomachs. All except for Ami, who was looking at Serenity strangely.
"Oh Gods, Sere! You almost had me! How could you act so serious about something like that?" Lita was rolling on the floor.
Serenity leapt up with tears in her eyes, "You think that's funny? Why are you laughing? I'm not joking!"
Ami, who had been silent throughout the time, now spoke, "Sere, are you aware that you are said to be the most exquisite lady in the universe?" she questioned quietly.
"Everyone just says that because my mother is the leader of the Silver Alliance. I know I'm pretty, but I'm still nothing compared to Endymion."
The girls blanched. When had these thoughts entered her mind? Sere had never ever doubted herself like this! Their minds once again went to the fear that they had seen in the princess' eyes earlier. Could they be linked?
********************************************
"Endymion, would you mind if I stole your fiancé?" Jadeite said. He was almost serious.
Endymion sighed, his mind in a jumble, "You all know that I love Lily, right?" he asked them. They all grumbled incoherently, "Well, in any case, I walked into that throne room today completely head over heels for her. Then that enchantress of a princess comes out and weaves her spell and now, my hearts doing flip-flops for her and not Lily. I can barely remember what Lily looks like, and I don't even think I want to!"
"It's okay to think like that, Endy," said Nephrite, "You will have to forget about Lily anyhow, you may as well do it willingly. It makes the going much easier."
"I suppose you're right, Neph. But when I think of how I've abandoned her, such a feeling of guilt arises in me. I'm so unsure of my actions."
"Don't worry about that right now. Get some rest to clear your head and we'll think more on it later." Zoicite said.
As their prince lay down quietly, the Generals gathered around the small table in the center of the large room. "You know, we should encourage this infatuation of the princess," said Zoicite calmly, "Not only because it would be easier on him in the marriage, but also because Lily.well, we'll just tell him it's best that he forgets her."
The rest nodded in silent consent. In truth, none of them knew the true extent of Lily's treachery. All they knew was what Jadeite had told them after getting back from escorting her to her house on that fateful day 5 months ago. That had been the day of the death of Endy's grandmother and he had been heartbroken as it was. Jadeite had watched her dismount her horse, walk inside, and smile at him through the window. She was always the perfect picture of a kind and gracious woman. As he had been leaving the land, he had noticed a man riding hurriedly past him toward the house. There was no mistaking the hungry look in his eyes. This man was after one thing and one thing alone. Acting on instinct, Jadeite had turned around and followed the man to the house to watch as Lily emerged and embraced him in a.strange manner.
After that, the generals simply had not had the heart to tell Endy of the deceit of the woman and the matter had dragged on until now. "Thank the heavens this is finally coming to an end" Neph sighed, "Watching him go on with that wench was tearing me up." He turned to Jadeite, "And you are still entirely sure of what you saw?"
"I don't know how many times you want me to say it, guys! The god damned whore was playing Endy that entire time!"
"He deserves better." Malachite murmured, "The prince has suffered enough for his entire lifetime as it is. I just hope this marriage can only make things better." They nodded.
"Now about the other princesses," Jade grinned boyishly, "That Martian princess was one hell of a heat wave."
"Truly, it was Princess Lita who caught my eye" Neph spoke up, his navy eyes dancing merrily "She had such an air about her. Not to mention she's within reaching distance for my lips." He chuckled, his chocolate locks swaying gently.
"And I think we all know who Zoi liked" Jadeite laughed, "The little Mercurian didn't even know what hit her! Even the great and daring Zoicite BLUSHED after what he did!" Zoicite reached over and smacked Jade upside the head.
"I'm terribly sorry, General Jadeite, I didn't realize that the customs here were different from ours on earth. Mayhap I should have followed your example and drooled?" he said with a smirk.
Before Jade could pounce on Zoi, he felt a warning hand being laid on his shoulder and looked up into the dark mask of his superior. "That's enough of this talk. Let's get to work on our training methods, something of real importance. Forget whatever fantasies you may have of the Ladies and lets be done with it."
Zoi's eyes turned to him in amusement, "You like one of them, too, don't you. That's why you're acting like such an ass. You don't like the fact that you're attracted to one of them." He gave his commander an ear-to- ear smile, "Way to go Mal!"
"Remember who you are speaking to Zoicite!" Malachite seethed.
"I know perfectly well who I'm talking to, Mal." He paused for a dramatic effect, "My friend."
Mal stared at him blankly before turning on his heal and directing they follow him to the practice courts. They were all in for the workout of their lives after this showdown.
