New Hope

Chapter 16: Off to see Mother

Has it really been a year since I last updated? Wow time really flys by fast. I am SOOOOO SORRY!!!! I have been really busy and it seems as time goes on I keep getting more busy. I have also had a writer's block…I still do…but I was able to get a bit out. This chapter isn't very long but I will try to make the next one longer. Anyways, on with the story.

"We're getting off the topic at hand." Luna said glaring at Serna.

"Right. And what was the topic at hand again?" Duo asked clearly confused as to what they were doing.

"Arg…You're such a baka Maxwell." Wufei said shaking his head at Maxwell's idiocy.

"No wonder you and Mina are together Duo, You two are so much a like; you're both dense." Raye said, and then started laughing, causing the girls except Mina, who turned bright red, to laugh.

"Hey now no need to be mean." Duo said glaring at the girls.

"So what are we going to do? Darien wants Serna and I bet he'll do anything to get her." Lita said brining the discussion back to all seriousness.

"What I want to know is who is Pandion and Philomela?" Amy said pulling out her mini-Mercury computer. "I can't even find them in my computer's data base." She added frowning.

"Setsuna, do you know who they are or anything about them?" Michiru asked looking over at the Time Guardian.

"Even I do not know who they are." Setsuna replied deep in thought.

"Is there anyone who does know?" Haruka asked crossing her arms over her chest.

"There might be someone." Serena stated softly, looking down at the ground.

"Who?" Mina asked. Everyone was staring at Serena who raised her eyes and looked over at Luna. Luna looked at Serena, their eyes met and Luna raised an eyebrow, then her eyes widened slightly after realizing whom Serena meant. Serena tilted her head to ask Luna is she was right. Luna just nodded. Everyone saw the transaction that happened between two and looked at them confused.

"What was that about?" Hotaru asked looking at Serena.

"Nothing," Serena said shacking her head. "The only person I can think of that might know who Pandion and Philomela is would be mother."

"But you mother is dead. How can you ask her is she know those two?" Quatre asked sitting up farther in his seat.

"I'll use the Silver Crystal." Serena answered, her blue eyes switched to the boys.

"How will the Crystal allow you to speak to your mother?" Trowa asked.

"The Silver Crystal is something that has been handed down generations in my family. It's kind of like a focus point for our powers. The Crystal is apart of us. It dies we die." Serena explained.

"How come you have the Crystal instead of Duo?" Quatre asked looking at the twins. Duo snorted and crossed he arms. Serena looked at her brother and rolled her eyes.

"Because the Silver Crystal can only be handed down to the women." Serena said looking at Duo.

"Usually there are only women born into the family. Every once in a while there will be a male born, but it is rare. Since it's the females that can control the Silver Crystal and also since there's normally only females that are born into the family, it's the women that take rule." Luna said, informing everyone.

Wow. That's interesting. What happens when a male is born?" Quatre asked, sitting at the edge of his seat.

"The males are the Prince but they're also in charge of the guards and the army. In Duo's case, since his father is the King of Saturn, he is also Prince of Saturn and when he marries he will be King of Saturn. If Hotaru marries she'll be Queen of Saturn but a smaller portion of Saturn." Pluto said smiling at Quatre's antics.

"I'm going to go and ask mother is she knows anything. I'll be back in a little while." Serena said standing up, getting ready to leave.

"Wait!" Duo said standing up also. "I want to come with you." Serena nodded and grabbed her brother's hand. She closed her eye, wishing on the Crystal to take them to their mother. A bright light covered the two of them. When the light died down they were gone. The gundam boys sat staring wide eyed at the spot the twins were at moments ago.

I hope you liked this chapter. I'll try to get the next chapter out as soon as I can. I'll also try to update my other stories as soon asI can. I have already writen Black Despair ch.4, all I have left to do is type it, so Chapter 4 of Black Despair will be out soon.
