"My dear Princess Serenity, just where have you been?" I swung around to find one of my Guardian Senshi, Princess Venus, raising a suspicious eyebrow. "Have you been going down to Earth again?" I ducked my head as I felt a slight blush come across my face.
"Yes, but I was just enjoying the water and nature. I promise I haven't met him. Please, Venus, do not go to the Queen. You know how she worries. If you keep this between us, I'll never go down there again." I tried to put on my best convincing face, hopefully she would take pity on me and agree. I watched her slowly nod her head yes and hugged her tight. We were the closet out of the group, I suppose because she was the leader and my main protector. But, we also had a strong understanding of each other, she had a lot on her shoulders as the leader of my Guardians and I had a lot on mine as the future leader of the moon.
"Princess, I know you mean well but you have got to believe me. Moon and Earth should never interact, and if I catch you going down there again I will have to tell the Queen. I have covered up thus far, but this will be the last time. Understood?" I sighed and nodded, knowing that she was right but hating to admit it. It was time to understand my role as the future queen and do what was right. Even if that meant that I couldn't go down to Earth and sneak a glance at the mysterious prince.
How strange this kingdom was, a small dome protected this Moon Kingdom from the outside. If I didn't know better, I would think I was back on Earth. The flowers were so beautiful and the stars so bright, but there was no water, no trees for shade, and the air felt much thicker than ours. Kunzite would have my head if he knew I had snuck off here, but I couldn't help myself. I needed to see her, hear her voice just once. And there she was, she looked to be in a serious conversation with someone that could be her twin. She must be one of the Princesses Guardians, I can tell by the look on her face. It's the same look Kunzite gives me when I step just the slightest out of line.
Finally when she walked away I caught my first glimpse of the Princess. Her beautiful, round, blue eyes that mimic the color of our sky, her soft pink lips in a slight pout. There was no doubt about it, she had been scolded. What should I do? Could I just walk up and introduce myself? There isn't a place for me to exactly hide, so I suppose there is not much of a choice. I walked up slowly, not wanting to startle her, "Princess?"
