The teleport room was silent as the girls stood on the device that would take them to earth. Queen Serenity stood at the control panel a sad smile on her face.
"Queen Irene will meet you girls. The king will be in a meeting until lunch."
"Don't worry My Queen, we will protect Serenity and be on our best behavior." Mina said as she took Serenity's hand.
"Thank you Mina. I will miss you all, and try to stay in contact." She smiled as she pressed the button causing them to be surrounded by a blinding light.
When the disappeared the girls were standing in another room.
"Welcome Princess, and her Senshi," a woman said and the girls turned to see a beautiful woman in a deep blue dress. Her black hair hung in soft long waves down her back and her kind eyes a sapphire blue.
"Queen Irene, a pleasure to meet you." Mina said as they all bowed their head to her.
"We are sorry to hear of your husband." Lita said as she helped the princess who was shaking down the steps followed by the other girls.
"Oh, my dear what's wrong?" Irene asked stepping closer to the young girl.
Serenity didn't answer just tried to keep the sobs from escaping.
"She's never been away from home." Lita whispered holding her hand.
Irene frowned before taking the small girl in her arms hugging her.
"Do not worry, you will soon see Earth is a good second home." She said to the Princess.
"I'm sorry, I don't mean to be so childish." Serenity whispered as she hugged the older queen.
"Lets show you all to your rooms," the Queen pulled away and smiled warmly at all the girls before looking down at Serenity "your worries are completely rational. When I first moved here I cried and didn't leave my room for a month." She laughed at the memory.
Soon she was showing the girls to their rooms. Serenitys being a very plain room since soon she would share a room with the king. However all the rooms were in an unused wing of the castle. So the rooms seemed to be brand new.
"Now Princess, I'm must warn you though most of our people are friendly some seem to be afraid of the Lunarians, so just for your safety for now, please stay with one of you Senshi or palace guards." Irene said as she started on her way to the banquet hall.
"Had there been threats?" Mina asked immediately
"Some. None from anyone to harmful and none from inside the Palace."
Walking into the hall two men dressed in uniform stood greeting the Queen.
"Zoisite, Malachite where is Endymion and the others?" She asked with a sigh
"The meeting finished early your highness, so despite my wishes the king has gone riding with Nephrite and Jadeite" the man with the long white hair said his blue eyes surveying the girls
"Thank you Malachite." She sighed "ladies please have a seat the King and his other Generals always seem to be late."
Lunch started soon after they were seated. Serenity barely eating just moving her food about her plate.
"Serenity? Are you okay?" Lita asked softly touching her friends hand.
"Actually, I am pretty tired. I think I will take a nap for a little." She said loudly and stood "thank you the food was delicious." She turned quickly and walked out not letting anyone follow her.
Unfortunately the young Moon Princess was never one for directions and was soon lost wandering the halls of the Earth Palace. Before she knew what hit her she felt her back slam into a wall and looked to see a man with dark almost black eyes starring at her with rage.
"You Lunarians so confident, think you can just have whatever you want including Earth. Well I'll take what I want now."
He pressed him self closer and she let out a gasp almost a scream as she felt his hands on her waist and his lips on her neck.
"Let me go! Get off!" She yelled scratching at his arms her eyes tightly closed as she tried pushing him off.
Suddenly he made a strange gurgling noise and then a thud was heard as his body hit the ground. Serenity opened her eyes to be met with the deep blue sapphire ones she had seen this morning in the hologram.
"Are you okay? Did he hurt you?" His voice was deep but gentle as he sheathed his sword which she noticed had blood on the end.
Looking down she gasped when she saw the mans body in a heap at her feet blood pooling around him.
"Princess? Are you hurt?" He asked again and she looked up and a sob escaped her lips as she shook her head no. He stepped closer to her just as he knees gave out and he held her to his chest turning so that she would no longer be able to see the body at their feet.
"You were headed to your room, this is no where near there." He said softly and she sniffled looking up into his eyes again.
"I'm afraid I am not good with directions." She whispered hoarsely and he smiled down at her.
"I shall take you then." He whispered back and took her hand placing it so that her hand was on his forearm and placed his hand over hers as they started to walk.
"How did you find me." Serenity whispered after awhile of walking.
"My mother said you had left to go to your room. I felt terrible for not being on time for the lunch so I came to find you. However you were not there." He explained "I am able to sense where people are like a vision of sorts I sensed you and then the man, before he had gotten to you. I'm glad I was fast enough." He squeezed her hand slightly
"What an unfortunate way to meet your betrothed for the first time." Serenity tried to joke.
Her heart fluttered when she heard his deep chuckle. He stopped suddenly and she realized they were in front of her chambers.
Turning to her Endymion took her hand and kissed the back "I am King Endymion of Earth and it is and Honor to meet you Serenity, Princess of the moon." He said softly and she blushed her heart beating wildly.
"The pleasure is mine, My King." She said back.
He laughed "please just Endymion, I'm not much for formality." His eyes held a twinkle of mischief.
"Then you must call me Serenity." She smiled back.
"Okay then, Serenity after dinner would you mind joining me for a walk? I would say before but I have more meetings." He sighed
"That would be lovely Endymion." She blushed again as he kissed her hand once more and then backed away opening her door for her.
Whispering a small thank you she walked into her room closing and locking the door behind her before leaning on the door placing a hand in her pounding heart.
"Endymion." She whispered and then smiled.
