Destiny's Kiss
Chapter Two: Glimpse of the past, Pieces of the Future
********
Author Notes: Ohayo Minna! I hope that you like Destiny's Kiss so far. * Grins * Anyway… Don't listen to Katy-chan when she says she's a crummy writer. SHE'S NOT. Also I discovered that We're using both the Japanese and American names for the characters. Incase this confuses you I think this is what we'll be doing. Serena will be Princess Serena Lunarian Serenity II, The crown princess Serenity. And Darien will be Prince Darien Alexandre Endymion III, The Crown Prince Endymion. Also know as Darien and Endy by his friends. The others will remain the Anime names. :P Please send all comments, suggestions and if you must flames to Seiria_Moon@yahoo.com or Moonie_Girl_Corty_Chan@hotmail.com.
Ja!

Bunny paced back and forth in her room. Angel had left her thirty-minutes before so they could both dress for dinner. A dress had been delivered a few minutes after Angels' departure. Bunny had changed out of the lilac dress and into the more formal gown of icy blue velvet that had bell sleeves. She stopped her pacing and walked to the table with her sword and quiver on it. She was trying to remember things from her past, she really was. But every time she almost remembers something. Poof! It's gone like a puff of smoke. She ran her fingers gently over the hilt of the sword staring at the crystal embedded there. She was supposed to be able to fight. She couldn't remember, she sighed and walked to the vanity that sat against the cherry wood wardrobe and sat on the stool. She worked the silver handled brush through her blonde curls then made two buns on the side of her head leaving two long pony tails hanging down. She lifted the ponytails and pinned them under in loops with long lazy curls touching her shoulders. Bunny had uncontiously styled her hair in a modified form of the hairstyle that the Woman of the Royal moon family wore. Bunny jumped at a knock on her door and called, " Enter!" in a shaky voice.
Prince Darien Endymion III, opened the door the girls room and blinked. He had known that she was gorgeous but she looked regal in the ice blue dress and with her hair styled the way it was. Darien realized that he was staring and cleared his throat.
" Mistress Bunny, I am glade to see that you are up and about. You gave Malacite and I a awful fright earlier."
Bunny frowned having no clue who this man was, " I'm sorry to of scared you."
Darien frowned, ' so it's true…she doesn't remember who she is.' He thought and smiled. He had to agree with Angel though, the name Bunny did fit the girl. Angel had filled Darien and the others in on what was going on earlier.
" Greetings to you sir, How may I help you ?" Bunny asked staring at the silent man in awe.
Darien grinned, " I am Darien, and I was just coming to see if you were ready for dinner." In answer Bunnys' stomach let out a loud growl. She grinned, and Darien offered her his arm. Bunny paused then slipped her arm through his. The were about to leave the room when Angel Breezed in, wearing a deep plum colored dress that matched Bunnys, only Angels had silver cording around the seams. Angel had piled her blonde hair on top of her in a mass of braids, and Ribbons with curls falling to her shoulders. She had her head bent down talking to a man in black armor, which had long wavy brown hair and from what Bunny could hear a kind gentle voice.
" Ohayo Squirt." Darien said to Angel
Angels' blonde head popped up and she smiled at her brother, " Endy!" she yelled and hurled her self into her brothers' arms. Bunny stepped back looking slightly confused, the man had said that his name was Darien and yet Angel had called him Endy. The brown haired man saw this and moved to Bunny's side.
" You seemed troubled, Mistress Bunny." He said " Is they're anything I can do to help you?"
Bunny looked at the man and a thought flashed through her brain quick as lightning.
' Lita would like this man…'
Bunny swayed and tried to grasp the memory, but it was gone as fast as it had appeared leaving only throbbing pain in her skull and emptiness.
Nephrite caught the girls' arm when she swayed. By this time Darien and Angel had focused their attention on Bunny and Nephrite.
" Nephrite-baka, what did you say to her?" Angel asked walking over to her brothers general and Bunny. Nephrite shot the Princess a look and said, " Nothing Angel, she paled and swayed." Angel gave Nephrite a dubious look and muttered, " baka…" under her breath.
Darien gently touched Bunny's shoulder,
" Bunny?" he asked softly
Bunny shied away from Dariens' touch,
" You lied to me," she said tears shimmering in her crystal blue eyes.
Darien looked confused, " lied?"
"Yes you said that you name was Darien, but Angel called you Endy."
Darien paused then bowed one arm folded against his waist, " My apologies, Mistress Bunny. I am Prince Darien Alexandre Endymion III, Crown prince of the Earth Kingdom." He smiled the formality melting away. " Endy or Darien to friends and family." Bunny eyed him then sighed when he offered her his arm again. She slipped her arm into his. Bunny also noticed that Angel did the same with the man in armor, she could remember Angel referring to him as Nephrite. Together the foursome left Bunny's room and descended the wide twisted stairs that lead in the Earth Kingdoms throne room. Bunny noticed that three other men in the same black armor as Nephrite had joined them in their downward decent and walked quietly behind them.

Luna Avari knocked gently on her princess' door before entering the main chamber of the suit. " Princess, It's time to get up. You have to join the other princesses' for breakfast, then your mother has requested that you join her for the conference of peace with the ambassador from Chronos. Then Queen Lainia of Jupiter wants you and the other Princesses' to meet her in the training yard." Luna paused in her tirade and strained to hear the sounds of her Princess' snoring. Even in human form she should have been able to hear the snores. Luna quickly crossed the main sitting room and entered into her princess' bedchamber. One glance at the bed told her that it had not been slept in. She quickly crossed to the balcony thinking that the princess some times hid in the garden to escape the duties of her life. Luna saw that the gardens were empty she turned back into the room a strong feeling of dread coursing through her. She looked at the bed and saw a folded sheet of paper leaning against the pillow. She crossed to the bed and picked it up unfolding it.
It read;
Dear Mother, Friends, and Beloved Brother,
You all know how I feel about the arranged marriage between Prince Aaleric and myself. Since mother and the council refuse to cancel the contract. I have left, I will not tell you where it is that I have gone. For as of now I do not want to be found. I will make contact when I am ready to be found. For now keep in your hearts the knowledge that I am safe and well.
Yours Always,
Princess Serena Lunarian Serenity II
Luna dropped the letter and turned running out of the princess' chambers and straight into Prince Tsuyoshi Nakamura First prince of the Moon Kingdom, heir to the planet Chaos.
Tsuyoshi's hands shot out steadying Luna while his knowing silver eyes scanned his friend.
" Luna, what is it?" he asked gently
Luna opened her mouth, then closed it and opened it again before saying, " Serena's. " She closed her eyes against the pain, " Serena's gone…" She whispered
Tsuyoshi frowned, " That is not funny Luna."
Luna gave him a look through watery eyes, " I am not jesting Tsuyoshi!" She growled. Tsuyoshi studied the female in front of him, then quite suddenly he was gone in a pulsing golden light. He reappeared in Serena's rooms, a quick mental scan showed that his sister had not been there in the last twenty-four hours. He looked around the grabbed the crumbled letter that Luna had dropped, and read it quickly. As he finished he let out an anguished yell and his moon symbol on his forehead flared to life.

Else where on the moon

Queen Serenity and her daughters' inner court looked up from the food at the power surge that coursed through the palace. Suddenly Luna and Tsuyoshi appeared in the dinning room in a blinding flash of golden light. Queen Serenity eyed her oldest child with concerned eyes. She noted how he was shaking, and the way his moon symbol on his forehead under his black and silver hair seemed to be letting off almost electric spark. The Queen slowly set down her fork, knowing that what ever her son had to tell her wouldn't be pleasant. Tsuyoshi did say anything he just walked to his mother and handed her the letter. The Queen read the letter and her hands began to shake. Even though she made no sound crystaline tears fell from her eyes.
" What is it Queen Serenity?" Rei the young princess of Mars asked softly. The other princess' of Serena's inner court nodded. As did the Senior Scouts of Queen Serenity's inner court, which were the mothers and older siblings of the younger scouts. Serenity closed her eyes, while Tsuyoshi held Luna while she cried. Slowly Serenity said, " Serena, The princess Serenity is missing."
