Chapter4

PG-13

Diamond

After making sure the entire palace had retired for the night Diamond quickly snuck into the palace stables. Reaching the stall which was occupied by an unnaturally white horse; Diamond began to saddle the horse and place the reins around its mane. Removing a small jewel incrusted dagger; Diamond began to make small slits in the straps which held the saddle and reins together. Hearing foot steps Diamond quickly belly flopped into the nearest unoccupied stack of hay. (a/n can you just see Diamond soaring into a pile of hay?)

Serenity

Serenity paused briefly thinking she'd heard a rustling from some neighboring stall. Shrugging it off as a possible rodent or even the wind she continued to settle herself into the saddle that had been specially fitted for Serenity's petite form. Clicking her tongue while lightly tapping the heels of her slippers against Purity's sides urging her to race the wind. Having left her hair down a water fall of golden locks flowing behind her as she galloped gracefully towards her secluded pond. Suddenly Purity got her front right hoof caught between two half hidden roots spraining it. As Purity reared back, Serenity grabbed for the reins which snapped immediately with the slightest jerk. The last thing Serenity took note of before she surrendered to the darkness; was Purity nuzzling her bleeding side.

Back at the palace

Molly lightly tapped the prince of Earth on the shoulder; waking him with a start.

Molly: Pardon but I must check that my mistress has returned from her usual ride.

Endymion: Please Molly I wish to speak with her. I don't even think she knows that our parents have given their blessings for us to wed.

Molly: Aye, follow me.

Endymion and Molly entered Serenity's chambers searching about the surrounding Moon trees. (a/n remember now in chapter one I spoke of the kind of trees the moon grew; White and shiny paper thin leaves.)

Endymion: Walking around the pond in the center of Serenity's chamber Ok Molly where is she?

Molly: I'll wake the Queen at once.

Endymion: Go, my generals and I will cover the palace grounds on horse back.

Molly: Do you wish me to awaken your family?

Endymion: Yes, go wake my brother tell him I wish him to help my generals and myself.

Molly: Prince Diamond isn't in his room.

Endymion: How do you know?

Molly: I saw him earlier walking towards the gardens.

Endymion: Molly, that's near the pond, is it not?

Molly: Yes Prince.

Endymion

Dashing out into the hallway; Malachite cushioned his prince's fall. The generals had immediately sensed their Prince's frustration, and calling.

Endymion: Gees, what are you guys part Jedi?

Nephrite: What ever you wish us to be master Yoda! Quirky grin

Endymion: Funny, I'm falling apart I'm laughing so hard.

Jadeite: What's up Endy?

Endymion explained the situation while they geared up their horses. After half an hour of searching their tracks over several times, and Malachite's wonderful voice singing Head Strong. (a/n hey I thought this would be cute)

Endymion: Confounded, MALACHITE!

Jadeite/Nephrite/Zoichite: SHUT UP!

Malachite: Grumbling

Endymion lunged of his galloping stallion upon seeing a white horse kneeling next to a small bundle.

Endymion quickly gathered the small moon angel. Handing Serenity to Malachite, Endymion swung his right leg over the saddle and trotted up beside Malachite's horse; placing Serenity gently propped up against his warm, and firm chest.

What will happen, will Serenity died from the deep gash on her side? Will Diamond be caught, will Diamond frame Endymion? Evil laugh guess you'll have to review and keep reading.
