Title: The Past Revisited (Sailor Moon)

The Past Revisited
My 17th birthday wasn’t anything special, that year however is one that I will never forget. For the first time in a long time I got to settle down, relax and be normal. Even if just for a little while I was a regular teenage girl with four of the best friends in the world to hang out with. And a boyfriend who was about to graduate from college.
That year was also the year I learned that Serenity and Endymion weren’t the little angels Luna liked to portray them as. She was always telling me to be more royal, more graceful like she was, well, that year I guess I did become more like her. See Serenity and Endymion weren’t dignified and royal, upholding their duties, no they were downright daredevils. They were a modern day…errr… ancient day… Romeo and Juliet, but they thing is, they knew things were going to end badly, they just didn’t care. Well that’s not fair, they did care, maybe that was the real problem, they cared too much. And that’s what made them throw caution to the wind and let themselves become wrapped up in their own emotions. Of course I didn’t know this, but I knew that I had to see Mamoru graduate, I had to be there when he walked off that stage, taking his arm and telling him how wonderful I thought he was.
So I told my mother I was going to look at schools for next year, and thankfully Ami came with me so I had an alibi. My mother was pretty taken back at first, but she accepted it, especially when she found out Ami’s mother had offered to buy the tickets for us just because she didn’t like the idea of Ami travelling by herself.
“So you’re getting a free trip out of this? I guess it makes sense now. You’re not one to pass by a chance at adventure. Just make sure you take some interest in the schools.” she commented
“Mom!”
“She’s right you know.” Ami had added. Oh well, she had scored me a free plane ticket and an alibi. As long I got to see Mamoru she could tease me all she wanted too.
The day before we were scheduled to leave I could barely sleep. I spent the majority of the night in that restless state between waking and sleeping. The state that is more than usually conductive to dreams. And what dreams they were.
~DREAM SEQUENCE~
“How could your people possibly think that our people were against you? We’ve done nothing but protect you all these years.” mumbled Princess Serenity, hurt by the people’s opinion on this beautiful planet she had always admired.
“Jealousy.” replied Endymion.
“But why? You have the beautiful oceans, and the mountains. And everything here is always changing.” She just could not understand why they would ever be jealous of the moon, where everyday was the same as the one preceding it.
“Some people are afraid of changes.”
“I think it’s a good thing. Like the way the moon looks from here; sometimes you can see all of it and sometimes you can see only a little and …..” but before she could finish her thought Endymion cut her off with the tenderest of kisses.
“I wouldn’t mind seeing a little more of the moon.” he breathed quietly, and Serenity felt her heart jump into her chest. She had never felt like this before. The years of attending balls and playing the princess… but here, on this planet, things were different.
“But I barely know you.” stated Serenity. But somehow she didn’t quite believe that statement. True, this was only the third time she had met with Endymion, but they had spent almost the entire night talking together on their second meeting. And there was something else too.
“You say you’re supposed to protect us?” he asked Serenity, with a sparkle of humour in his eyes. “Are you sure you’re not the one who needs protecting?”
“I…. take me to the ocean.” she said. The feeling of excited fear had subsided and was know replaced with some sort of confidence Serenity did not quite understand.
“Glady.” said Endymion as he took her hand and lead her to the beach…..
Usagi had woken up with a start and tried to wipe the sand off her backside before realizing there wasn’t any there.
“Is everything alright?” whispered Luna.
“I’m fine.” replied Usagi.
“Are you sure? You woke me up with your moaning in your sleep, I was worried you were having a nightmare.” inquired Luna.
Usagi felt her face burn a bright shade of red but fortunately in the dark of her bedroom Luna didn’t notice. “No, no nightmare.”
