Now on to the story!
Serenity walked Endymion to his room to have some much needed rest, giving him a kiss and her assurance that she would figure everything out and that she would always love him.
She turned and walked down the halls thinking now was the time to lecture the Senshi on their behavior. She knew they were just being protective but sometimes they just went too far. But when a mischieviously grinning Amara came upon her, all thoughts of a lecture disappeared.
"You are in soooo much trouble!" Amara said grinning wildly at Serenity, who looked curiously at her normally serious friend.
"What are you talking about Amara?" Serenity asked trying not to laugh as the joviality of her friend was contagious.
"Someone neglected to mention to a certain Senshi that her brother was in the palace." Serenity gave an audible gulp at thinking about Hotaru's reaction to finding out her family was in the palace.
"I thought she had forgone her family so I figured it was best if she didn't know they were here." Serenity said trying to justify not mentioning that important bit of information to her friend.
"Her parents yes, but not Caril. Those two are closer than anything. And once she finds out he is here and you have yet to tell her you are in so much trouble! Not to mention what happens when Caril finds out you didn't tell him. Why is Caril here anyway?" Amara asked suddenly stopping the rapid flow of words as she teased her friend.
"Saturn wishes to wage war if I do not marry their Prince." Amara's face dropped. The King and Queen of Saturn were vindictive people who only cared about expanding their power and controlling all those within their grasp. It was a wonder to everyone who knew them how their children ended up being so gentle and kind.
"Caril would never agree to such a thing, he's not the type to force a planet to war just to gain a bride. It must be his parents. There must be something we can do about them." Amara hated the King and Queen of Saturn with so much passion there were moments when she vowed to have Hotaru destroy the entire planet.
"Amara my friend watch your temper it has already gotten you into trouble once today. Now why don't you find Hotaru and bring her to the gardens and I will find Caril and do the same. It will be a nice surprise for them, and I owe it to Caril for being so kind to me today." Amara raised an eyebrow at Serena's smile as she spoke of Caril but nevertheless nodded and went off in search of Hotaru. Serenity went off in search of Caril, and was told by a servant that he was on the balcony.
"Have you been out here all this time?" She asked coming up upon the Prince. He looked over to her with a smile so bright it caused her to blush.
"I enjoy looking out into the stars. Did you speak with Endymion?" He asked his eyes searching hers for the answer. She nodded.
"I can't thank you enough for helping me see past my heartache. In fact in my gratitude I have a surprise for you. Come with me." Caril looked at her curiously and for a moment wondered if he should follow her, but his smile was more than enough to convince him and he followed her down the steps the garden.
It was mere moments after they stepped onto the grass that Caril saw a small figure running toward him.
"Caril!" It cried happily and the Prince held out his arms with a smile and embraced his little sister.
"Hotaru! It has been so long since I have seen you! Why did you leave me, dear sister?" Caril embraced the sister he hadn't seen in years. He had missed her so much, she had been the only one to bring happiness to a castle filled with anger and power struggles.
"I'm sorry Caril, but I couldn't stay any longer and Amara offered me a home on Uranus I couldn't turn it down. I am sorry I left you." Hotaru's eyes filled with tears as she thought her brother would hate her for leaving him.
"It's okay Hotaru I am glad you got away, you deserve to be somewhere better than Saturn. I am just so happy to know you are well." The pair embraced and Serenity watched them lovingly, this was what being on the moon was supposed to be like, being filled with a happiness to wonderful to even describe.
She looked up toward the room where Darien was sleeping, wondering if she should surprise him. But she closed her eyes as her head erupted in pain, she could see only black but the words repeated in her head.
THE END IS NEAR PRINCESS!
She felt back unable to fight against the pain that over took her. She became oblvious to the world as she faded into her unconscious.
"Serenity!"
A/N: I hope you liked this chapter…it actually didn't end up being as light hearted and happy as I wanted it to be…but then you wouldn't have this super cool cliff hanger to encourage you to review!
