Chapter 4: Idle
Hands
(Uranus’ room the next day)
Uranus woke the next morning hugging one of her pillows. She sat up looking around and rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. She had the dream again, every night it became more intense, more passionate. It always started out with her sneaking into someone’s room and crawling in bed with them then making love to them, though she could never see the person’s face or any other hint to who the woman was. Her ears perked up hearing something coming from the other room. She stood from the bed straightened her pajamas then headed out into the common room. In here she could hear what the sound was better it was a violin playing and it was coming from the deck. Uranus walked over to the stairs as if the music was guiding her.
Once there she saw Neptune playing her violin with her eyes closed seeming like her mind was somewhere else while her body was left behind. Uranus sat down on a piano bench staring at the Neptunian Princess for a bit then as if complied by an unknown force she turned lifted the lid to the piano and started playing. She didn’t really know what she was playing she just let her fingers move with a will of their own. Her eyes fell closed as the music continued filling her with warmth. She felt more at peace then she ever had before. After a while the song came to an end and she stopped opening her eyes seeing that Neptune was staring at her. “Sorry I didn’t mean to disturb you.” Uranus said after a few seconds of just staring at each other.
“It’s okay, you play really well.” Neptune said setting her violin back in the case.
“Thanks my mother taught me when I was young. You are amazing I never knew how good you are with that thing.” Uranus said.
“Thanks, my father taught me when I was younger. I didn’t wake you did I?” Neptune asked pointing out that Uranus was still in her pajamas. She walked over and ruffled Uranus’ already messed up hair. “You look like you just got out of bed.”
“No you didn’t wake me I got up on my own.” Uranus said trying futilely to get her hair to lie down.
“Well that’s a good thing it’s almost noon.” Neptune said.
“Yeah well I like sleeping in.” Uranus said. “So we’ve got the whole day to ourselves what should we do?”
“I don’t know you’re the native here what is there to do on the moon?” Neptune asked.
“Well lets see we could go riding I know some really pretty trails.” Uranus said.
“Riding? Only if you promise not to throw me in any ponds.” Neptune said playfully pushing Uranus.
“Hey that was an accident and I didn’t throw you!” Uranus said standing and pulling Neptune into her arms. “Anyway I promise not to throw you into any ponds.” Uranus laughed. Neptune leaned into her and stood still for a minute an odd silence between them until Uranus let her go. “Well I better go get changed.”
“Yeah,” Neptune said as Uranus walked down the stairs. Neptune stood there for a minute still thinking what it was like to be in her arms. She felt so safe in her arms like she was meant to be there.
(Fields outside the Moon Palace)
Uranus and Neptune rode for a while enjoying the scenery of the moon. Uranus was riding the same black horse she had been riding with Serenity and Neptune rode on a cream colored horse. “It’s so pretty here. You must enjoy living here.” Neptune said.
“I like it here but I miss my home sometimes.” Uranus said. “I haven’t been back since my father died.”
“Why?” Neptune asked.
“I don’t know it’s just when I go back everyone expects me to become queen. I don’t know the first thing about ruling a planet.” Uranus said. “What if I mess up? What if I can’t be the person they want me to be?”
“I’m sure you’ll be a great Queen.” Neptune said. She wanted to say more but her horse bucked throwing her from the horse and onto the ground. It ran a few yards from them and stopped.
Uranus quickly got off her horse and was at Neptune’s side holding the smaller girl in her arms. When she fell she must have hit her head. Uranus just sat holding her and a few minutes later Neptune opened her eyes. “Neptune!” Uranus said.
“What happened?” She asked.
“I don’t know your horse bucked and threw you. Are you okay?” Uranus asked.
“I think I’m going to have a few bruises.” Neptune said standing up with Uranus’ help.
“Wait right here I’m going to go get your horse.” Uranus said making sure she was ok then running off to get the horse. Neptune watched as Uranus ran over to the horse then checked one of it’s hooves before leading it back. “Looks like it threw a shoe. You won’t be able to ride her until she gets it fixed.”
Neptune nodded then looked over to the palace. “It’s a long walk back.”
“Walk?” Uranus said looking at the palace then climbing on her horse. “I don’t know about you but I’m not walking.”
“Oh so you are going to make me walk while you ride?” Neptune said putting her hands on her hips.
“Not at all give me your hand.” Uranus said. Neptune reached up holding her hand out and Uranus grabbed it pulling her up and onto the horse. “Can you reach the reins to your horse?” Uranus asked but didn’t get an answer from her. “Neptune?”
“Huh?” Neptune said.
“You’re spacing out on me again.” Uranus said.
“Sorry. I guess I hit my head harder than I thought.” Neptune lied once again she was driven to silence from being in the blonde’s arms.
“Maybe you should go to the infirmary when we get back.” Uranus said. “Can you reach the reins to your horse?”
“I think so.” Neptune said grabbing the reins. Uranus reached around her waist taking the reins and tying them around the saddle. One of her hands rested on Neptune’s waist while the other held the reins to her horse leading it back towards the palace.
“So what about you? Do you miss Neptune?” Uranus asked. “I went there once a very pretty planet. I didn’t stay long though.”
“Part of me does but I like being here I’ve never really been away from home for long. My mother rarely lets me visit the other planets.” Neptune said her voice sounding could when she mentioned her mother. “She has my whole life planed out for me. I don’t think she was happy about me coming here. You know she even warned me about you.”
“Really I can imagine the things she said about me.” Uranus said. “My father used to always tell me she was a stubborn and arrogant woman.” Neptune sat there in silence not saying anything and Uranus began thinking she said something wrong. “I’m sorry I didn’t mean to say that about your mother.”
Neptune laughed a little, “No your right she is. I don’t remember you ever coming to Neptune.”
“I don’t think you were there I know I would remember a pretty face like yours. Like I said I didn’t stay long. I went with my mother I think I was only like five years old I was wondering around the library and bumped into a candle stand it fell over and set the library on fire. Mom took me home right away after quite a tongue lashing from your mother. I’ve never been back.” Uranus said.
“That was you that burnt the library? I was on Mercury visiting my cousin when that happened. Mother was furious about that for weeks she still is mad.” Neptune laughed.
“You have a cousin on Mercury?” Uranus asked.
“Yes, actually Princess Mercury is my cousin. Her father is my mother’s brother.” Neptune said.
“That’s why the two you are always together. I figured you knew each other but I didn’t know you were cousins.” Uranus said.
“You and Princess Serenity seem pretty close.” Neptune said.
Uranus sat there for a short while then spoke, “Yea, when I first got here I was really depressed she was always there for me. Still is.”
They rode in silence until they reached the palace. They gave the horses to one of the guards at the gate and started walking inside. “Do you still want to go to the infirmary?” Uranus asked.
“No I’m feeling better now.” Neptune said.
“Well we’ve still got like half a day left what do you want to do now?” Uranus asked.
“Something that doesn’t have to do with horses, being around you and horses is dangerous.” Neptune laughed.
“This time wasn’t my fault!” Uranus said holding her hands up defensively.
“My mother was right you’re nothing but trouble.” Neptune said slapping Uranus’ shoulder then starting to walk off.
Uranus grabbed Neptune from behind pining her arms to her sides. “Didn’t you know trouble is my middle name?” Neptune dropped into a crouch slammed her fist into Uranus’ leg then leaned forward using Uranus’ body weight to flip her over on the ground. Uranus, having hit the ground so hard, gasped air into her starving lungs. Neptune held her hand out Uranus taking it and getting up. “I see someone was paying attention in class.” Uranus laughed.
“Yep, teach you to sneak up behind me trouble.” Neptune said. “Speaking of trouble Mercury keeps telling me stories about all the ‘fun’ you get into. I think they’re just that stories.”
“Oh trust me Princess they’re not stories.” Uranus said.
“Prove it.” Neptune teased.
“What am I hearing this right? Does little Miss prefect princess I never get in trouble want to do just that?” Uranus asked.
“I’m game if you are.” Neptune said.
(Later that afternoon in the gardens)
Queen Serenity sat in the garden drinking tea with a black cat and a white cat. One would normally think this was strange but the two cats were from the planet Mau and guardians of the Silver Millennium. Unknown to them two young princesses sat in the bushes watching them. “How much belladonna did you put in Artemis’ tea?” Uranus whispered.
“Enough.” Neptune whispered back.
“Are you sure? Maybe you should have put more.” Uranus said.
“We’re trying to make him sleep not kill him. Look there.” Neptune said pointing to the white cat as he yawned. They watched as the cat excused himself and then followed him back to his room. They waited a few minutes then entered the room finding the cat passed out on his bed. “Got the dye?” Neptune asked.
“Right here.” Uranus laughed.
“Why do you have pink dye anyway?” Neptune asked.
“Don’t ask.” Uranus laughed.
(Later that night in the dining room)
Queen Serenity sat at the head of the table to one side of her was Princess Serenity to the other sat Pluto, the black cat Luna and an empty chair. The rest of the senshi sat around the table. “Luna is Artemis coming?” Queen Serenity asked.
“I sent a servant to go wake him up from his nap.” Luna said as the doors to the dinning room opened and a pink cat walked in. “Who is that?” Luna asked as the pink cat walked over to the table and sat down next to her. “Oh my Artemis you are pink!”
He looked around the table at all the senshi who appeared to be holding in a laugh except for Neptune and Uranus who were laughing uncontrollably. “Uranus, Neptune do you know anything about this?”
Uranus and Neptune both looked at each other then Uranus looked back at the Queen saying, “Well maybe he fell in a vat of red wine. Luna has been saying that he's been drinking too much lately.”
“Yes, my queen, I saw him outside the wine cellars in the lower levels this afternoon.” Neptune joined in crafting a tale.
“And why we're you down there? You know you aren't supposed to be down there.” Queen Serenity asked a skeptic look on her face.
Neptune sat there in silence not knowing what to say she quickly looked over to Uranus who sat there trying to think of something to say. “I asked her and Uranus to meet me there to go over the lessons they missed today.” Pluto said.
Queen Serenity glanced over to Pluto who nodded slightly. “Well that explains it then. Artemis I’m sorry for whoever played this prank on you perhaps a little bleach will turn you back to normal.” Serenity said.
The rest of the meal went without any problems and the senshi were excused. Uranus and Neptune were heading back to their room when Mars stepped out in front of them. “I know it was you.” She said pointing at Uranus.
“What was me Mars?” Uranus asked.
“It was you that dyed Artemis pink just like I know it was you dyed my robes pink.” Mars said.
“Are you sure you didn’t just accidentally wash the bottoms with the tops and it bled?” Neptune said.
“You’re both in on it I know it!” Mars said then stormed off.
Both Uranus and Neptune laughed then started heading back to their room. Once there Neptune turned to Uranus, “Did you really dye her robes pink last week?”
“Guilty.” Uranus said.
“And switched Mercury’s text books with comics?” Neptune asked to which Uranus nodded. “Put itching powder in Jupiter’s Gi?”
“Yep. Remember that day Venus showed up to sparing class in a mini skirt and tube top?” Uranus said.
“Yea that was you!” Neptune said. “You pranked everyone… wait a minute what were you going to do to me?”
“Well I have to admit I wasn’t sure so.” Uranus said walking towards her desk and taking a small book out.
“My diary!” Neptune said running over to Uranus and taking it. “You didn’t read it did you?” Neptune said thinking of the entries about her dreams and Uranus.
“I couldn’t pick the lock.” Uranus said.
“I can’t believe you took my diary.” Neptune said.
“I didn’t read it.” Uranus said.
“But you were going to!” Neptune said storming up the stairs to her room.
Uranus stood there for a minute then walked up the stairs knocking on the door. Neptune didn’t answer so she knocked a few more times she wasn’t sure but she thought she heard Neptune crying. She tried opening the door but it was locked. “Neptune I’m sorry.” Uranus said through the door but again Neptune didn’t say anything.
To be continued… Author Notes: The move Neptune did when Uranus grabbed her from behind is a real move used in UDT (Unarmed Defensive Tactics) I learned it while training with the Army pretty cool move and believe me it works. Oh and for those that don’t know a Gi is a karate uniform.
