"It has been unanimously decided," said Serenity, "by both the Queen of the Earth and the Queen of the Moon, that the woman who we believe is Queen Beryl, shall be sentenced to death." "No!," screamed Endymion and the true Princess Serenity in unison. The court shunned this outburst. "Silence," said Geiacoldly, "The sentence shall be carried out tomorrow, three hours after dawn."
"Mother!," the convicted girl cried, as the guards dragged her back to the dungeon she had grown to despise. "Silence," scolded Queen Serenity as she rose. Quietly, she and Terra guided Endymion and the false Princess Serenity outside. Geia's frown melted into a smile as she saw the young couple together. "We will start planning your wedding the day after tomorrow," she said happily, "Please, don't let this mishap ruin your future together." With that, she pressed their hands together and walked off with Queen Serenity, leaving the two alone.
The disguised Beryl smiled, "My love, don't let the evil queen deceive you, you know we were meant to be." Endymion was confused, which one was the true Princess Serenity? He had to find out, before he went insane...and before the death of the alleged Queen Beryl. He kissed his betroth's impostor's hand, "I know Serenity, we will be together, don't worry."
Endymion then excused himself from the woman's presence and snuck downstairs to see if he could speak to the prisoner. "Halt!," cried one of the guards as Endymion approached the dungeon. "I need to speak with," but he was cut off by the angry guard. "I'm sorry, but no visitors are allowed." "By what orders?," demanded the prince. "By those of your mother and Queen Serenity," replied the guard. Knowing this was a battle he could not win, Endymion left, praying the next dawn would never come.

Dawn came and went, ten minutes to the third hour past, the prisoner was fetched. She was taken upstairs and outside, where the warm sunshine beat down on her. Her eyes, now accustomed to the darkness of the dungeon, did not welcome this sudden brightness. The true Princess of the Moon was marched up to a pedestal, with her hands chained behind her back. Eight guards hovered close by, watching to be sure she did not escape and ten more guards wandering the grounds.
"Any last words?," Queen Serenity asked as she lifted the Ginzuishou into her steady palms. The princess tried to choke out something to her mother, but in vain. "I suppose not," the queen continued. Ceremoniously, Queen Serenity raised the Ginzuishou and prepared to carry out the death sentence. Princess Serenity turned, to see Endymion clasping the hand of her duplicate. Keeping her voice as steady as possible, the Moon Princess looked into the eyes of her love and sadly managed, "Remember, I will always be your Odango Atama."
