Sailor Moon Fan Fiction ❯ Maiden Prophecy ❯ Mercury ( Chapter 2 )

Sorry for the long wait on my story, but I have not had the opportunity to write, since I am hardly on the comp anymore. I will write as much as I can on this comp and send it in. My other story I am thinking of discontinuing for a little while due to the fact that I won’t be able to post a lot of the chapters much. I hope you like the story, and I better be getting some reviews or I will not write.

Summary: Serenity has just been told of a prophecy, but most of the prophecy is unknown of. She sends missives to the eight princes of the planets. The first planet is Mercury. The characters of this story is and isn’t mine. The men are though! WOO!

***********

She watched as the missives were sent. Each animal the missives were with were different in color, size, shape and species. She watched three in particular. These were a multicolored blue phoenix with ice feathers, a silver dragon with golden tips that had a white fire around it, and finally a golden unicorn with silver wings and horn. The dragon and unicorn were going to Venus and Pluto, she sighed softly as she turned her eyes back to the blue phoenix.

***********

A young man with dark and light blue hair sat in a library, reading a thick volume of Plato. The huge comfortable chair he sat in folded around him, enfolding him like a glove. He shifted slightly as his sky blue eyes lifted from his book as he heard a knock from the door. “Come in,” he said with a soft baritone voice. A young woman with medium blue hair walked in. She smiled softly at him as she slowly walked into the room.

“Good day your majesty,” a soft lilting voice said. She slowly walked into the room, and knelt beside his chair as she placed her head on his hand. A soft smile appearing on her face, as a dark blush covers her cheeks. She slowly raises her eyes to look at him, and blushes even more upon seeing his own blush. She quickly removed herself from the floor, but still looking at him. She tilts her head as he returns the greetings. “Your mother wishes a word with you, your highness.”

He groans slightly and tries to cover his head with his hands as he shakes his head. “Can you cover for me please Ami? I don’t wish to be bombarded with her inane bantering about finding a wife. I am just not ready yet to be married to anyone.” He lowers his eyes back to his book, completely oblivious to the look of sorrow and pain crossing young Ami’s face. She replies in a softer tone of voice filled with a lot of emotions. “As you wish your majesty, but I will be so bold as to tell you that you will have to find a wife soon. Your father and mother won’t be around forever, and only wish the best for you.” She turned her head and walked out of the room, her head held high, as a sailor senshi would.

Though there was five years difference between the two of them, she had fallen for his highness. He didn’t know that she was the one who was infused with Mercury’s power. She couldn’t tell him, for she was bound by the senshi code to never tell anyone unless it was needed. Not only that, but her highness Princess Serenity had forbidden her from telling anyone about it, unless she was to be married to that person. She had walked to a balcony, and sighed softly. Her dark blue eyes slowly rose towards the sky.

Ami saw something descending towards the balcony she stood on. It was of medium height, with a huge wing span of at least 8ft. There was a multitude shade of blues sprinkled all throughout the body. The head was that of the softest blue, the chest was a sky blue, the wings were a dark blue, and finally the tail was that of a midnight blue. The bird was that of a phoenix, that hasn’t been seen in a long time. Ice hung from the wings and tail feathers, with sapphire eyes staring at her. It made a screeching noise and swung its’ claws at her. The missive becoming dislodged from its talons and landing at her feet.

She bent over and picked up the missive, seeing it addressed to his majesty, she quickly went inside and towards the library. She faltered a moment at the door, before lightly rapping on it. She heard the permission to come in, and entered. “Your majesty a letter has come for you… It is from her highness Princess Serenity.” As soon as he heard the message he lifted a hand, and watched as she placed the missive in his hand. He read the contents of the letter.

Dear Prince Ion,

I know it has been a while since our last meeting, but I must ask for your immediate presence on the moon. I know we haven’t kept in contact for the last 7 years, and I am sincerely sorry for it. I do hope that you come. The other princes should be here or on their way here. It is of up most importance that you do come. I thank you.

Her majesty and future queen,

Princess Serenity Ann Lunar

He read the letter, and went to a desk in front of the window overlooking the ice fountains. He quickly wrote a response to Serenity, and gave it to Ami who quickly took it back to the balcony, tying it to the phoenix. The phoenix took off back to the moon, leaving behind the sparkling blue planet, that glittered in the light of the Solar Kingdom’s light. It sped towards the moon, and her majesty Princess Serenity. It would take several hours since most of the phoenix’s energy was being spent on the way back home.

Ion left out of the library, walking down a hallway. The hallway consisted of several portraits. Many of the portraits were those of the Lunarian Royalty, the royal families of the Milky Way Galaxy, and of the Mercurian family. He stopped at a portrait of several kids together. A slight smile appeared on his face, as he looked upon that of an angelical young girl with platinum blonde hair done up in meatballs, as he and his friends use to call them so lovingly. Actually they use to torment the young girl, and she would retaliate with equally evil torments. He shook his head as he went down memory lane.

*********

A young boy sat beside the stables with a book in his hand. He was deeply infused into the book that he didn’t hear the sound of giggles. His hand turned a page, as he was reading about a stallion in the Arabian desert. He felt someone tap him on the shoulder, and looked up to see sky blue eyes looking at him. He fell backwards shocked for a moment, when he heard several boys start to laugh at him. He turned a bright red, and turned to look at the young girl.

He recognized her to be the crown princess of the moon. He gave a slight smile at the little girl, and picked himself up. He patted her on the head, and sat back on the bale of hay, going back to the book he was reading. He felt a small body sit beside him, and lay her head on his lap yawning slightly. He patted her head some more, lifting his head when he heard the Plutonian prince call out to him. He lifted his head, as the Plutonian prince came up to him. “Ion I’ll take young Serenity to her room. Go back to reading your book.” The Plutonian prince picked up little Serenity into his slightly muscled arms, and walked her towards the palace, with the Mars prince falling into step beside him. They vanished into the Moon Palace.

Ion smirked as he watched the two go into the palace, and went back to reading his book. He moved his shoulder length blue hair out of his way, the wind blowing strands of it all over the place.

*******

Ion smiled slightly at the memory of the first meeting he had with the young princess. He walked on down the hallway, and to a door with a crossbow and the Mercurian symbol mixed together. He entered and started to pack his things. He made a check list of things he needed. “Pants…check. Shirts…check. Socks…check. Cape… check. Books…check. Maps…check. Boots…check. Crown…. Double check. Gloves and riding gloves…. Check. Armor…. Check. Anything else… No.”

He placed everything in his chest and closed it. He made his way toward the door with the soldiers carrying his luggage, down to the awaiting carriage. He loaded himself into the carriage, and it took off.
