Elysion looks over the water at the city ahead. She had been on the boat for three to four days and so far she had only made one friend on board. A guy named Nigel Maxwell. He was a bit taller then her, 5'10, at least with very, very short hair with dark skin and dark brown eyes. He was a little perverted, but actually really nice and was a member of the crew.

At the moment, she was waiting for the thing to dock, when he came up.

"So, why are you here?" He asked for the sixth time.

"I'm visiting family." She said, which wasn't a lie, not really, but he didn't need to know that.

"Well, maybe I'll see you around there."

She looks at him, "What?"

He grins, "I'm going ashore. Maybe you can hook me up with one of your cousins. One with a nice ass......breasts too.....that'd be nice."

Her left eye began to twitch as she bopped him on the head, "Hentai! Do you think of anything else besides sex?"

He gave her an innocent face, "Fudge.....and cheese....."

She sighed in exasperation, "Remind me why I'm your friend again?"

He nudged her with his elbow and winked, "You're just lucky that way." "Goddess help me."

The whistle blew and a man cried, "All ashore, that's going ashore!"

She gathered her things, as he did as well and walked towards the plank, "So, you'll write?" He asks as they stood on the dock, "And we could hook up together?"

She nodded, "When I find them, I'll write to you."

He shook her hand and pulled her into a hug, "Be careful, ok?" He told her seriously before letting her go, "I'd hate to see you turn up dead. Who else would bitch at me then?"

"I don't know." She replied.

He bent down and patted the wolf's head, "You be good too, Ter, and take good care of her, k?"

In response, the big wolf licked his face, which he wipes off. "Well, see you when I see ya." And walked off.

"Come on Terran, we have to find a place to stay for tonight." She said. She stood there a moment longer, gazing deeply into the wolf's spring green eyes. For a moment, she swore she saw some human like intelligence in his eyes and shook her head and started walking, "Come on boy."

school

Usa yawns as she tried to pay attention to the teacher's mindless droning. She allowed her thoughts to drift about a certain, white haired boy with amber colored eyes like gold. As her mind began to drift, her friend, Kaimiko, who goes by Kai, noticed and sighs. There she goes again! Kai thought This is the millionth time she's done this! She took her pencil and poked at Usa. "Usa, snap out of it!" She hissed.

Usa jumps, startled at this, and glances around quickly to see if anyone has noticed her inattentiveness. Luckily for her, it was the last class of the day and they'd all get to go home soon.

The bell ranged and the class was dismissed.

Usa sighs as she slams her locker close. "Kai!" She stares, startled once again, seeing her friend stand there where she wasn't a second ago.

"Well, you need to stop spacing out on me, Usa!" Kai scolded her as they headed out the school, walking towards the palace. "You're just lucky that Kimiyo-sensei didn't catch you daydreaming again!"

Usa huffed a little, "It's not my fault that his lectures are so boring!"

Kai raised a blue brow, her light purple eyes taking on a questionable look, "Who was it about this time? Masaki Maso?"

Usa shook her head, "Uh-uh, I'm totally over him!" She allows a little sigh to escape her pink lips, "No, it's someone else.....that I met along time ago."

"Well?" Kai said, "Spill! Who is this guy?"

"Well-"Usa began but was shoved down to the gone, "Itai!" She looks up only to see a girl running towards the palace, with a big gray-black wolf at her side. "Hmm... I wonder what that was all about." She stood up.

"How rude!" Kai announced. "You think she would apologize! After all, you are the princess of half the freaking world!"

Usa smiles at her, "Chill out, Kai." Usa plucked a leaf out of her cotton pink hair and inspected it with her crimson eyes. "She might have been in a hurry to get somewhere." She drops the leaf and shrugs, "Nothing to die over."

Kai pursed her lips and then nods, "You're right, so," She said changing the subject, "how's Diana, Luna, and Artemis?"

"Oh, they're fine."

A moment before

She stares at herself in the mirror, rebraiding her hair, adding some ribbons in them. She smiled, satisfied with the results. She then dressed in her finest fare jeans, which were black, and a white, sleeveless shirt with a tie in the front. She then added some silver earrings and a bracelet. Then finished off the ensemble with black platform shoes.

She looks down at her friend and smiled, "What do you think?"

Terran looks up at his mistress and gave her a wolfish grin and barks.

"Yeah, and you don't look too bad yourself, there." She pats him on the head, "Come on, lets go before it's too late."

"Help!" Elysion stops as she heard the cries, "Someone help me please!"

"Shut up!" a male voice shouts as the sound of a body hitting something accompanies it. "Just shut up and hand over the dough."

"Hey!" Elysion shouts seeing the older man pushing around a small boy. "Leave that kid alone!" She threw a rock at him.

"Why you!" He lets the boy go to go after her.

"Run, kid!" She shouts.

The boy stammers 'thank-you' and ran away.

"That's it, girly." The big oaf said, "Now you're mine!"

She stuck her tongue out at him, "If you can catch me!" She turns and runs, "Come, Terran!"

"Hey!"

She ran through the crowds of Crystal Tokyo, heading for the palace. Somewhere, along the way, she lost him, but didn't want to take the chance and see if she did. She glanced back, as she rushed though the crowd and bumped into someone. She didn't even mumble an apology, because she would've been late if she took the time to.

"We're almost there!" She says, slowing down at the entrance. She checks herself, once more, making sure she still looked presentable and rung the bell.

The door opened and a man stood at the door. "Yes, may I help you?"

"Yes,... ...umm...... I have an appointment with the King for four-thirty." She said.

The man looks her over then nods slight to her. "Follow me, you shall wait in the waiting room."

"Thank you." She mutters, inwardly sighing in relief. This is going better than I thought. She relaxed a little, I get to see him! My father.....

"Wait here." The butler told her. "Someone will get you shortly, and," He glances at the wolf at her side, "make sure that mongrel behaves!" then shuts the door.

Elysion snorts and looks down at her friend, "Isn't he nice?" She turns and looks around the room. There was a t.v. wide screen on the wall, a nice window that showed one of the many gardens of the palace, a small refrigerator, and beautiful paintings every where.

"Wow, these paintings are so cool." She moved closer to one painting in particular. It was one of the copies of the royal family.

She touched the man in the picture, totally in awe, That's him, isn't it? She thought, That's Endymion.....my dad. He's so handsome......wow! No wonder mama fell in love with him!

"Hello there." Elysion turns around and came face to face with a raven- haired woman and a aqua haired woman. The aqua haired woman had blue eyes like the sea and wore a short-sleeved dress. She had an air of tranquility around her and was very calm.

She's like water...... Elysion thought, before focusing on the raven-haired woman.

She sported a red short-sleeved shirt with comfortable red slacks. Her eyes were dark, dark violet that looks almost black or brown. She had more of a feisty aura, more of a heat then the other woman. Like fire.

"I'm Kaioh, Michiru." The aqua haired woman states.

"And I'm Hino Rei." The raven one said.

"It's a pleasure," Elysion holds out her hand, "I'm Elysion Montgomery."

They all shook hands. "What brings you here to, Crystal Tokyo, Montgomery- san?" Michiru asked, politely.

"Sorry," Rei said with a small smile, "We have to screen people for their majesties."

Elysion nods, then felt a wet nose pushing against her hand, "Oh," She smiled looking down at her ill-forgotten companion. "This is my friend, Terran."

The wolf looked up at the ladies, then back at his owner. She smiles as she rubbed his head and looks back at them as she noticed their aura of power.

Wow, these guys are strong!

Rei, frowns a little, sensing the girl's aura, as well as the wolf's. What are these two? She exchanged looks with Michiru.

Hmm...... this is no ordinary girl or wolf. We have to watch her closely. Michiru thought with a smile. "As you were saying?"

"Oh, sorry." Elysion smiled a little embarrassed and flushed (Though they can't tell.) "My mother sent me here to learn and train." She gazes passed their head at a painting.

"Oh, and what does that have to do with the King?" Rei asked her, suspiciously now.

"My mother saved him, when he was stranded on our island." She answered.

Michiru's eyebrows were raised, "You wouldn't happen to be, Kritra Montgomery-san's daughter, would you?"

The girl nods, "Yeah. Mom told me to come here and learn how to control my powers better, since she cannot teach me everything."

They remained silent for a while, then turned, "Follow us." Rei told her.

An: Thank you for the reviews! Maybe this time I'll be able to get to the point of where I am in the story!
