Last Time

"You are to take Prince Endymion on a full length tour of the castle grounds, and show him a good time." She gave her

daughter a hug and a kiss good night; "I think I'll be going to bed now, early wake-up tomorrow."

Serenity just stood there dumbfounded with her finger still in her ear!

...CONTINUED

"What!?" Raye exclaimed. Followed by Lita who looked deeply confused and said, "You are?" Amy finished it off by saying, "How strange."

The door opened. "Pasta anyone?" They all looked at the man standing by the door, with a trolley of food.

"Oh, thank you Paul. You can put the food over there." She pointed to a nearby table. Mina came into the room with a bib on. "Mmm, I smell pasta!."

"I'm sorry, Princess Mina, I didn't think to bring you any pasta. I'll be right back. Excuse me ladies." Paul left the room for the kitchen to prepare some pasta for Mina.

"Hey, Serena, is it true you're showing the prince around?"

The moon princess sighed, "yeah."

Lita said, "I don't get why your soo gloomy over this. I mean this can only lead to good, you know. You get to know more about him, and you get to show your mum that you can be responsible."

"I know that, Lita. But what if I mess it up. Besides I don't think the prince fancy's me much. I really don't care much for him either."

"But he's so cute." Interjected Mina, looking away from the door Paul had left out of. Raye looked at her put out by her behavior. Raye said, "Serena, I really don't think It'll go all that bad. It's all in your head...as usual"

"What!? So you're saying I'm making things up? Is that what you're saying?!"

We leave the scene as the girls bicker while the others sit back and eat pasta!

We open in the Royals Chamber, right before they leave

"Endymion, honey, we are going to call you as soon as we get there."

"Son, behave. Remember just because we aren't here, doesn't mean we don't know EVERYTHING that you are doing." In a hearty tone Queen Esmerauld replied, "OH, come now, sweetheart. Don't threaten the poor boy. But, you know it's a good thing that Kunzite and the others

came when they did. I can not bare to imagine my son all alone."

"Mother, I'll be alright."

"Yes, Esmerauld he'll be just fine. By the way son you should get ready for your tour of the castle."

"Wait, w-I still have to take the tour?"

"Now, honey, don't sulk. You're much too old for that. You'll be turning 18 soon."

"Listen to your mother she has a point. You'll be taking the tour with the princess."

"P-princess. Which one?"

"Come now, son, Princess Serenity of course." Queen Esmerauld playfully added, "She's cute. Don't you think so?" The Prince clearly not finding it humorous at all said,

"Mother, please! She's not... What is she, like, 15?" Still quite amused His Mother said, "16. And there's nothing wrong with her being that age. Look at your father and I. We met when I was 16 and he was 18," she looked at the king affectionately. The king smiled,

"Son, treat her like a lady."

The orange haired man walked into the room, "The Royal carriage is here." The Queen's expression changed, from happy

to sad,

"Oh Darien, honey. Take care. Oh...," her eyes were watery, "I hate departures."

"Aw, Mother don't cry please. This is business. I'm sure I'll see you in a few days or weeks. I'll call you, okay?" He gave her a hug, his father too. He said, "Make sure you say 'hi' to Mr. Marcus for me."

All three royals got into the coach, and waved goodbye. The generals, the princess', Princess Serenity, and Prince

Endymion, all waved back. Kunzite looked at Endymion and playfully said, "what!? Your not crying?" Endymion just gave him

an evil eye. Jadeite walked up to Endymion and said,

"Show me to them moon girls Endy."

"What, now!?" He shot a look at Jadeite.

"Well, don't you think I've waited long enough? I mean look at me, they are missing out on a once in a lifetime chance with all this." He did a slow twirl. "I'm gorgeous."

Jokingly Zoyzite yelled, "Oh God!, My eyes, MY EYES!! Jadeite stop, you're hurting my eyes!!"

Not taking too kindly to the joke Jadeite said, "Ha-ha-ha, Zoysite, very funny." Jadeite lunged at Zoysite.

Nephlite came to the rescue with a bucket of water, he poured it one them as he would dogs fighting over a bone. Jadeite stopped biting Zoysite's leg and Zoysite stopped pulling Jadeite's hair. Kunzite and Nephlite led the two by the ears into the prince's room.

"What do you two idiots think you're doing? Do you know where we are?! You cannot be acting like...like un trained

monkeys."

"Hey!"

"Shut up!" Kunzite was fuming. "Do you know what would've happened if the King had seen your unruly behavior?!"

Paul walked in with a wet cloth. "I'm here to tend to the young man's wound." He kneeled down to Zoysite's leg and started to clean it.

Nephlite said, "See! These people do not need you two to be causing trouble. I'm sure Mr..."

"Paul. Just Paul."

"Thank you, I'm sure Mr. Paul Just Paul has better things to do than tending to your leg." The others broke out in

laughter. Even though when ever Zoysite would laugh he an added "ouch" in the end.

"Sir, My name... Just call me Paul." The golden haired man said.

Kunzite said, "Nephlite, you spend way too much time in the clouds than in your own body."

"Why You!!" Nephlite got Kunzite in a headlock and gave him a nugie, "Say you're sorry."

"Ouch, ouch, NEVER, ouch ouch. Leave me alone. Ahhhh ouch."

Prince Endymion stepped in, "Nephlite that's enough, come on."

There was a knock at the door, The Prince said, "Come in." The door opened, Princess Serenity walked in and said,

"Prince Endymion," their eyes met, "it... it's time for your tour."
