Day 1—8:30 am
Princess Serenity forced her expression to remain neutral and calm as she and her mother—accompanied by the four inner guardians—entered the Justice League's Watchtower. She couldn't allow her mother or the League to see how she excited she was about staying here. Besides, if her mother caught wind that her daughter was planning to visit Earth with the League as her "guardians" she was positive her mother would march her back to the Moon.
"Sere," Queen Serenity began, her voice soothing and calm. "I want you to not trouble the League in any way. They have done us a huge favor, taking you in, and I do not want them to wish they hadn't, is that understood?"
"Yes, Mother," The young princess replied. "I shall do my best." Her mother smiled—a rare show of affection—and wiped a wisp of blonde hair out of her daughter's face.
"And please Sere," The Queen pleaded. "Please be safe." The princess grinned and pulled her mother into a hug. Her mother stifled a gasp and returned the hug.
"Mother, you be safe too," Princess Serenity mumbled. "Promise me."
"Princess," Sailor Mars met her gaze and Princess Serenity could see in her fiery eyes that the guardian of the flame would protect her mother. "There is no need to worry."
"You see, Serenity," The Queen began congenially. "I will be in good hands."
The door opened and a woman in a startling red, gold, and blue outfit appeared. She had long flowing raven hair and radiant blue eyes. As she walked over—red boots clicking on the floor—the young princess saw a golden tiara with a red star in the middle resting on her head. Princess Serenity forced herself to remain calm despite the fact that she was unsure what to make of this woman.
"Queen Serenity," The woman bowed her head slightly and the Queen smiled in returned. "I trust this is your daughter." A hand was pressed on Princess Serenity's back and with a glance at her mother, Serenity stepped forward.
"I am the Crown Princess of the Moon," She began in customary greeting. "Princess Serenity and I thank you for your kindness."
"Wonder Woman," The woman replied, holding out her hand and Serenity cautiously shook it. "Pleased to meet you, your highness."
"Sere," Her mother met her gaze and Serenity could see a hint of sadness in those familiar eyes. "I shall return in thirty days. Behave."
"Yes, Mother," Princess Serenity replied as she curtsied. "Have a safe trip and return victorious." Her mother gazed at her for what seemed like an eternity and the princess wished to say so many things—I love you, don't die, don't go—but she had been taught better than that. She wouldn't betray her mother's teachings just because she was frightened.
And then, without another word, the Queen left, her guardians trailing behind her.
"Don't worry, Princess," Wonder Woman's voice startled her, but Serenity smiled. "Your mother seems quite the valiant warrior and I don't doubt her return."
"Sere," Wonder Woman seemed confused.
"What?"
"You may call me Sere," The Princess explained. "It's a nickname. I am called it on the Moon so I don't get confused with my mother." Wonder Woman grinned and pushed open a door.
"Come," She called. "Let's introduce you to the rest of the League."
As Serenity entered further into the Watchtower, she couldn't help but feel excited. Sure, she was worried about the crisis on Saturn, but for the first time, she was alone to do as she wished. And with the tower being this close to Earth, there was no way Serenity was going to miss a chance to go visit her favorite planet.
Now, if she could just figure out a way to slip out unnoticed . . .
