SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 3 out, this is Chapter 4 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Pairings: Mainly Tieria/Sasha, Allelujah/Marie, Lockon Jr./Anew, Billy/Sumeragi, Patrick/Kati

Standard BS Disclaimers: I do not own Sailor Moon, Gundam 00 or the pairings. If I did, the other Senshi would be as powerful as Sailor Moon and kicking MOTD ass more often and VEDA would have least an anti-hacker program installed. The only thing I do own is the plot.

Chapter 4: Royal


There were a lot of excitement in the air as the servants scurried around, preparing for Neo-King Endymion and Neo-Queen Serenity's coronation.

The Inner Court were coordinating the planners as they decorated the coronation hall.

Neo-Queen Serenity sat in a large wooden chair in her office. She still had so much to complete. She carefully took the crown off her head. Tomorrow, it would be replaced with larger crown embedded with brilliant jewels, just the one she wore as Princess Serenity.

A soft knock on the door disrupted her thoughts, as her main maidservant informed her it was time for dinner.


Dinner quickly passed and was uneventful. Protocol was reviewed for tomorrow. Everyone was to gather one hour before the coronation ceremony to complete last minute details.


Later that night...

Sasha could not sleep and exited her shared room with Tieria to wander around the palace grounds.

"Sasha-hime, I thought you had turned in early?"

Sasha turned to see Billy Katagiri behind her.

"Billy, what are you out here this late?" Sasha asked.

"Brigadier General Mannequin has some last minute security preparations that needed my aid." Billy answered. "Sasha-hime," he went on one knee in front of the Princess. "It matters not who the ruler of Earth is; for me and the rest of the Federation, it is you who we follow."


Early at dawn the next day...

Excitement filled the air in the palace; it was the morning of the coronation for Neo-Queen Serenity.

Hundreds gathered in the largest room of the Crystal Palace, the Great Ballroom. Aristocrats from all over the planet gathered. Everyone wanted to witness history.

In the center of the room stood Neo-King Endymion and Neo-Queen Serenity with the Sailor Senshi in a semi-circle.

While the Senshi were there to witness the coronation, they also served as security, just in case anyone would attempt to disrupt the ceremony.

As the Senshi most familiar with the traditions, Sailor Pluto listed some of the traditions of the Moon Castle and how the Princess has done her best to uphold her duties despite all the difficulties she had to overcome. One by one, the Senshi knelt before the Earth's new rulers, pledging their loyalty to the crown and serving whomever wears that crown and renewing their vows to support her in her time of need.

Once the pledges were made, it was time for Neo-King Endymion and Neo-Queen Serenity to take their vows. Neo-Queen Serenity vowed to uphold the laws of the kingdom and put her planet's interests above her own. She would fight for the people and do everything in her power to protect them from harm. Both Neo-King Endymion and Neo-Queen Serenity knelt on a small bench on the floor.

A few moments later, the royal couple could feel two heavy objects placed on the top of their heads. It was the crowns of the King and Queen. They slowly rose to their feet and Endymion's hand clasped around Serenity's. In response, the room erupted with applause. They were now the rulers of Earth.

Neo-King Endymion then spoke, "Thank you for all of your support. You honor us with your presence. Without further ado, let the feasting begin!"

Neo-Queen Serenity tried not to fidget on her high throne, trying to remind herself it was all part of protocol.

Then the music began to play. Couples began to head to the dance floor for waltzes. The newly crowned Queen watched them carefully, glad to see that their style of dance held little differences to those of the Silver Millennium.

Lockon had taken the bull by the horns and led Anew to the dance floor. The other Meisters had also taken his cue and led their significant others to the dance floor.
