Hey! I forgot about this story. Summer drifted in and work and then school. I find this on some disk I was clearing for school. I probably will not write anymore on this story or ever finish. Sorry…=0(
"Lunnaaa! Why didn't you wake me up?!" whined Serena as she rushed into the bathroom to get ready for school.
"Serena, your crystal and communicator!" Luna said as she tossed the items to Serena.
"What a good little kitty you are!" Serena smirked while she stuck out her tongue at Luna. Serena didn't have time to think, but to bolt out the door. She found herself on the familiar route she took to school everyday. As she rounded the corner, "smack! Hey!" Serena landed on her butt with a thud. Her heart skipped a beat how could she have forgotten, this was also Darien's route to visit Andrew on his way to college. Why didn't she pick another way to go to school? She scolded herself. Serena was afraid to look up for she did not want to see him at all.
-Memory-
Oh that fateful day when the fist time she was late for school and bull charge Darien, well not deliberately. Anyways from that day on she was purposely late just in order to see him. Well okay that's not entirely true; she did over sleep a lot. Hey a girl needs her beauty sleep after fighting evil monsters all night long. She loved the name calling quarrels, and little dramatic fights, but that was before they truly knew their real identities. She hated the meatball head the most.
"Hey are you alright?" A hand waved wildly in front of her downward face. Relieved and disappointed she looked up and beheld crimson eyes with flecks of gold in them. Nemamiah stared in a trance, it's her. He had found her already. It's him! The black feathered winged angel, but wait where his wings are? No, no it can't be, she was just imaging it was him. Serena stumbled to her feet without breaking eye contact with him. After the initial shock wore off, Nemamiah advert his eyes downward to his shoes, which looked pretty interesting right at the moment.
"Hehe, well sorry about that" he laughed nervously while scratching the back of head and blushed.
Serena smiled as she observed him. Men are such funny creatures. Nemamiah took a quick glimpse of Serena's cool blue eyes and stuck out his hand.
"Name's Nemamiah."
"Bong. Bong"
"Aahh! Oh know I'm late, I'm going to get detention now, and I have been so good lately." Wailed Serena as she ran off towards school waving goodbye.
"Wait! What's your name?"
"Serenaaaa" her voice flowed brokenly to his ears.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Darien decided that he would go straight to school instead of visiting Andrew. Had he made the right choice the other night? Yes/No, oh who the hell knows, Serena didn't deserved him. He began getting headaches three weeks ago. At first the headaches were nothing, but by the start of the fourth week he felt like he was going insane. He could feel the darkness creeping back into him. Something evil was brewing and it was affecting him. If he fell into the darkness again he did not think his princess's voice or love will save him this time. He truly believed that he would kill her if the darkness overpowered him. The only way to get rid of Serena was to break up, oh boy was he a poor loser at that. Oh God, it hurt him terrible, but he had to figure out what was happening to him before he did something he'll regret. Imagine that! Serena had turned out to be Sailor Moon, haha he chuckled to himself in spite of the predicament he was facing.
Darien thought back to the Silver Millennium era… ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He never got the satisfaction of killing Lord Deventa, such a pity too.
The carriage stumbled to an abrupt halt. Men were shouting and horses whinnying and lastly the clash of swords rung out in the wind.
There was only a small escort of ten men all together, to protect the queen and the prince.
The Queen peered out the window and gasped.
As the fighting went on, the vicious Lord Deventa loomed on the top of the hill.
The wind whipped Queen Kaia's black hair wildly around her face. She desperately tried hard to not show any fear.
"Take him Joscelin, protect him, and never let them get him." She smiled sadly as Joscelin struggled with the child.
"No! No I will protect you!" Endymion flung about wildly. Kicking and twisting his body to break lose of Joscelin's tight hold.
"Sshhh" she kissed him on the forehead. "I love you"
"Your Highness?" Theron cried out, as he pulled the queen on to his horse. Endymion watched in horror as they rode frantically away.
Lord Deventa shouted as he descended the hill towards his mother and Theron.
"Get the boy! I want the boy. Bring him alive!"
Arrows buzz past them. Theron drew his sword fighting the on coming men and trying to protect the queen at the same time. If he could just make it to the woods to the east and to the creek there is a place the Queen can hide. He will drop her off and come back and challenge Lord Deventa to real fight. One on one, but it was too late. An arrow priced the side of his neck, Theron was not dressed for fighting, and he was not well protected. He gasped for air as his vision blurred.
"NO!" Queen Kaia screamed.
Joscelin heard the Queen's cry and turned the horse around the help the Queen.
Queen Kaia took the reins and pushed onward, but it was too late. Lord Deventa's horse veered in front of her, the horse reared. She fell along with Theron's dieing body into a crumple pile. " "no, no this can't be happening" she whisper to herself. She crawl over to Theron, and placed her hand on the side of his neck, "Theron, stay with me… please" the Queen's voiced filled with despair.
"I'm sor rrry." His breathing became ragged and stopped with a pool of blood slipping from his mouth.
Lord Deventa chuckled to himself, King Cassius's wife dead and his only heir well is mine.
"Kill everybody else; no one gets out of here alive. Now find the boy!"
"You can never have him" She said with a deathly tone.
The Queen picked up Theron's sword and lunged at Lord Deventa with all her strength.
"You bastard!" she screamed.
Women can be such a pain in the ass. He easily dodged her attack and pivot to his left catching her wrist and drawing her up to him. The sword rested tightly against the Queen's throat.
His gray eyes gleamed. "Look the boy comes to save you." he snickered in the Queen's ear.
"Watch and learn boy" he yelled to Endymion.
"Run, run Endymion!" she desperately cried out to him, but her warning went unheeded.
Endymion grunted as he rolled over and jumped to his feet. He hastily picked up a sword off the ground, which was too heavy for him. When he was able to hold a sword and swing it couple of times, he begun training at near tender of four. Now at age five he could handle a wooden sword, but a real sword he was really clumsily with it. Anger fueled his body; he could feel the blood pulsing through his veins. He charged.
"Aghhh!"
The sword made a nice clean cut against the soft flesh. Joscelin yanked Endymion by the back of shirt onto his horse and made a run for it. Screams filled his ears; it wouldn't stop, until he realized it was him that continued to scream. Endymion didn't have time to think, the sword was gone and all he kept hearing was the swish of the sword and Deventa;s cruel laughter. He had no strength left to fight off Joscelin, tears ran down his face. The image played over and over in is head, the look of terror in his mother eye's and the evil gleam in Deventa's eyes and the flash and the blood, the lifeless gone from his mother. Deventa effortlessly threw down her body as nothing but air and roared with anger at his men.
Joscelin could not the push the horse any further. The horse was near exhaustion, yet he and Endymion were only a half of day away from the nearest village. It was a cool night. Joscelin weary made camp and prayed to make it to the village in the morning. He and Endymion rode a day and half, hoping to put enough distance between Lord Deventa. Being in the woods made the journey tricky, but luckily Joscelin knew the forest very well. Endymion fought the on coming sleep, but the lures of a lullaby had him fast asleep.
She laid her hand gently on his forehead. "Endymion?" She whispered softly.
"Mama" Endymion stirred a little bit in his sleep.
"Endymion, wake up child"
He opened his eyes and felt peaceful and unafraid. The lady in white gave him a sad smile and motioned him to sit on her lap. How could he? Her belly was swollen.
"Do not be afraid" the sound of her voice filled his ears as sweet honey.
Endymion came over and sat on her lap and laid his head on her belly. Immediately his eyelids felt heavy and could not keep them open
"Endymion I have something to give you" she stroked his hair.
"Thump, thump"
"What's that?"
"Oh, silly that is Serenity, my baby. Can you feel her kicks? She must like you" The lady in white laughed quietly.
He smiled,
"Now listen" she stood him up and made him stand as she raised herself. He was very reluctant to get up. Her silver hair glistened in the moonlight that poked through the canopy of leaves. She held out her hand and it glowed. a bright circular light circular formed above her hand. He held out his hand.
"I give you a gift. You are Prince Endymion of Earth and must protect the people and the Earth itself. You are very special boy."
Endymion did not know then, but that insist when his mother was murder in front of him, Doubt and hatred borrowed in his soul, hardening his heart, closing it up to world around him. The light she held terrified him, but the word power overcame his fears. The light absorbed into him and she kissed him on the forehead.
"Now sleep prince, maybe when earth is ready, you will meet us." She whisper, but Endymion was fast asleep again. She dissolved in the moonlight.
As the Prince of Endymion grew older…
His men under is rank feared him, but respected him as well. His guardians Kunzite, Nephrite, Jaedite, and Zoisite had a tough time guarding him, but even they were afraid of him at times. It was a constant struggle to keep him under their watchful eyes.
Endymion was scared to die, but draws life with his hand. He kills without mercy, a beast in battle fighting with fire in his eyes. After a battle for there were small civil wars, he would crept out into the eerie darkness of the night. To the battle field, to where the dead lay scatter. The only light to comfort him was of the moon and the stars. The touch of life he gave back to the dead he could not save them all, but Endymion tried. Know one knows who he is; survivors come back stun and talk about the walking shadow of light. Darien, known then as Prince Endymion of Earth lived in darkness, never letting his guard down, never letting the light in, but the moon on which he looks towards is the only comfort and peace he received. Until he met the girl that would change him forever.
"Darien, wait up" a voice drifted into his day dream.
"huh" was that Serena? He turned around, who the heck is that?
