Chapter 3
Unwanted Courtship


Princess Serenity took her chair beside her mother at the dining table. Next to her was supposed to be Princess Ami, with the other girls in the order of the their planets surrounding that side of the table. All other guests were to sit at the other side or at adjoining tables as was the custom. However, when Serenity looked over at Ami's chair she saw an annoying face look back at her. Mother that chair belongs to the Princess of Mercury she was annoyed.

It is only for today... I hope ... her mother sighed. He got here before the court did and took her seat... we will just have to deal with it. she frowned. He is just a suitor after all.

Why the hell is the bastard still here... of all the men in this court... He should be fed to a dragon... Serenity looked over at Ami, who shrugged her shoulders. Oh Fuckin great, Why me

Endymion got up and moved Serenity's chair ," Welcome to dinner, my lady," he said as she sat down and he moved the chair back into place.

Just sit down and shut up, creep Princess Serenity was becoming more unhappy.

"Are you feeling okay?" Endymion asked, a look of concern in his eyes.

"I'm fine," Serenity said coldly Just go away

Soon plates of chicken were placed in front of everyone. Serenity only picked at her food.

"Are you sure that you are feeling alright?" Endymion asked again.

" I am Fine, I said," Serenity snapped.

There was silence to the end of dinner, then Serenity excused herself to retire in her chambers.


'Damn it, I really hate that guy, I can't stand being treated like that! He is so immature...' Serenity sighed as she finished putting on her nightgown. That Idiot is so pathetic I would hate to see how my fiancee is... She walked through her corridor and entered her bed chamber.

" Well here you are princess, I have been waiting for you..." came a voice.

Princess Serenity gasped as she looked over to see Prince Endymion sitting on top of her bed. How in the world" How did you get in here!..." Serenity demanded. " Nobody is allowed in this chamber!"

" Why Serenity, my dear, I told your servants that I had to speak with you privately" Prince Endymion said sounding innoscent.

" So Spill," Serenity snapped in her irritated tone. " I do not like having anyone in my room this late into the night...and you are no exception...Spill it and leave!..."

" Why my darling... do you continue to play this game of cat and mouse...I am slowly growing tired of it!..." Endymion demanded.

Serenity looked at him in shock. " What game!.. What are you talking about Asshole..." She screamed in a confused yet angered tone. " You are the confused one... I am very serious in my training as a Princess, and I do not have time to play foolish games!"

She shrieked angrily.

"Princess I am the only man that has come for your hand... Think of that... Nobody cares for you or you would be engaged by now...You have to marry soon and I am here so I am the only one available for you... I have more power than you ever will.. Get it in your little brain blondy... You are mine wheither you like it or not and I will do everything in my power to make sure that nothing stands in my way.." Endymion snapped angrilly at her jumping off of her bed.

Serenity looked over at him in shock. Damn this weirdo is really an idiot. "Let me tell you something... Prince Endymion... I have better things to then go off and marry foolish earthling princes like you!..." She fumed in defense.

"Don't make me laugh.." he said as he grabbed her arm.

"Stay away from me.." Serenity looked into his eyes to see a look of maddening lust in his eyes and summoned her power. "You will never have me!" she snapped as she pulled away from his grip and made a split decision. She Teleported from her room.


"Hotaru do you mind if I spend the night in your chambers?"

Princess Hotaru of Saturn looked over from her vanity to see Princess Serenity materialize before her. " Sure Serenity," She said putting down her brush. " Is there a problem?"

" Thanks buddy," Serenity sighed relaxing in a nearby chair. " yes there is major problem... part of which is that that prince..."

" I presume you mean Endymion of the Earth," Hotaru said with interest.

"The same freak..." Serenity continued. " You would not believe that jerk's latest stunt."

"Well what did the bastard do?"

"He... he ... followed me into my bedchamber..." Serenity said angrily... He insisted that I was the chosen one to be his bride."

" Jeez..," Hotaru said realizing what Serenity had ment, " That guy as a total loony, and still... well we all know that Rei seems to like him..."

" Rei can have him," Serenity snapped. " Nobody seems to realize what I am going through.." She continued in a depressed tone.

"Everybody suffers in some way that nobody seems to understand or even notice..." Hotaru sighed hugging Serenity. "You know what? Haruka and Michiru were getting bad vibes from him at dinner. There is something strange about him, they said they would look after him." She said remembering earlier.

"That's true," Serenity sighed "You know there has got to be something about him the way he acts around me." Serenity was deep in thought. " Hotaru? can.. um can you keep a secret?..."

Hotaru looked over and saw the pain and confusion in her friend's eyes. " Sure Serenity," she continued to comfort her friend. Have I ever let you down? You know that you can count on me for anything, especially if you need someone to listen."

" Thanks Hotaru," Serenity sighed. " this could wind up a long story..."

" Well go on..." Hotaru urged.

" Well it goes like this...You know why my birthday ball will be one week early this year..." Serenity started.

" We were told that you would pick the suitor that from the many that will come to marry you on your birthday." Hotaru said remembering a talk she had earlier with the queen.

"Well it is not really quite like that...You see on that day we are to announce an arranged marriage that is to take place between me and the Prince of the Kingdom Underground found in the eastern nebula, Jareth."

"The goblin kingdom? but I thought that we were at war with them?"

" We were but this arrangement was made to end the war."

"Oh." Hotaru said in a sliightly stunned voice.

" My mother arranged it with King Alexander a year ago, I only found out a couple weeks ago."

" Wow, no wonder you have been acting upset a lot, to have to deal with a deranged suitor and an arranged marriage. So Prince Jareth is the one that you will marry on your birthday." Hotaru sighed.

Serenity nodded close to tears.

"That is a serious dilema." Hotaru said hugging her friend again. " I wish I could help, but I would not know what to do..."

" Yeah, I feel like I am screwed." Serenity cried in her friend's embrace.

" Maybe if you talked with Setsuna. " Hotaru began. " Oh forget it she may not be able to help either."

" Huh," Serenity sighed deep in thought. " I suppose you are right, I wish I knew what I could do."

" Damn it she escaped again!" Endymion groaned as he looked at where he had Serenity moments before. "My father will not like this."


He looked over at Serenity's vanity. " Pharoah 90 will not be pleased."

Suddenly a light flashed on the mirror and his father's face appeared. " Endymion have you gotten her yet!" he growled at him.

"Sorry father, She has been avoiding me, but I promise that I will have her by the birthday ball." He said quickly.

" Do not fail me. It is becoming harder to hide from that brat of a prince, Jareth. He is on my tail again. With the power of the Silver Millenium I shall control the universe."

"It will be done, father." Endymion continued.

" Very well do not fail me, I shall return for the birthday ball." The image vanished from the mirror.

" I will not fail you father." Endymion said as he watched the vision vanish.
