Chapter 4: An Ocean Of Memories
Serena sighed, taking a seat on Duo's bed, folding her arms. "You have to kill me.....I beg you." She said in a soft, yet pleading voice, unshed tears glistening in her eyes as she stared at the four gundam pilots.
"I'm sorry Your Highness, but Duo told us to protect you for the time being." Quatre replied, taking a seat beside the young Queen, giving her a reassuring look.
Heero frowned slightly, studying the girl's expression, which was sheer sadness. "Well.....Duo doesn't speak for me." He said finally, pulling out his gun.
Duo tugged on Sapphire's arm, leading him to the end of the hallway, not noticing the fact that they approaching the young Prince's bedroom.
"Elena." Sapphire said, stopping and taking the hand maiden's hand. "Since were right infront of my room, why don't we go in. That way we can talk privately." He smiled faintly, interlacing their fingers.
Duo forced a smile, uncomfortable about a guy holding his hand. But managed a nod. "Alright." He agreed, his voice dry.
"Come then." Sapphire's smile deepened, leading Elena into the room, closing the door behind him.
Once inside, Duo instantly let go of Sapphire's hand and leaned against a wall, while Sapphire closed the door further. The room was slightly dark, lit only by a small lamp, making it harder for the gundam pilot to see anything.
"So what did you want to talk to me about?" Duo asked a moment later, folding his arms, feeling more than uneasy.
"Do you have any idea of how beautiful you are Elena Maxwell?" Sapphire said in a smooth voice, taking both of Duo's hands in his, and stood infront of him, staring into the hand maiden's eyes intensely.
"Uh no." Duo replied, backing even further against the wall, his expression full of terror at how close Diamond's brother was to him.
"Well you are." Sapphire whispered, leaning closer to Elena, until his face was only inches from the hand maiden's.
Duo gasped, his body stiffening from the extreme nearness of the young Prince, restraining himself from doing anything to blow his cover. Just as Sapphire's lips were about to touch Elena's, the door opened, and in walked Diamond.
"Sapphire. We have to make a trip to the L3 Colony." The Young King informed, raising an eyebrow at the scene.
Sapphire bowed his head, disappointed with the interruption but nodded. "Yes brother." He agreed, releasing Elena's hand and stepped back, facing his older brother.
"Good. Now let's go." Diamond commanded, waiting for his brother, arms folded.
Sapphire glanced at Elena, giving a small apologetic smile, then left the room with his older brother.
Duo smiled tightly, giving a slight wave as he watched the two brothers leave, then sighed, relieved. Once he was sure the pair was gone, he headed back to his room, eager to see Serenity again.
The minute he reached his room, he was meant with the sight of Heero holding his gun against the side of the Queen's head, about to pull the trigger.
"Heero! No!" He yelled, rushing to his friend's side, and yanked the gun of his hand, adding a punch to his jaw. "How dare you! You told me you wouldn't harm her."
"Duo calm down." Quatre pleaded, standing between the two, holding out his hands.
Both glared at each other, seeming to attack each other at any minute.
"Duo....Please." Said a soft voice.
Duo narrowed his eyes on the perfect soldier a moment before turning away, and focusing his attention onto the gorgeous Queen, his expression softening. "Your Highness."
She chuckled lightly, looking up at him. "Please call me Serena. Duo." The Queen smiled.
"Serena." Duo grinned, tossing the gun back to Heero, who caught is skillfully, and frowned, putting it away as Duo approached the girl, seating himself beside her.
"I'm the one who asked him to kill me. Please don't be mad at him." She explained, bowing her head.
Duo arched his eyebrows, frowning slightly. "I didn't know. Sorry Heero." He apologized, glancing at his friend, who merely nodded, rubbing his cheek, then slid an arm around her. "Serena, there's more to you. Isn't there?"
She closed her eyes and nodded.
"You said something about being Neo-Queen Serenity of Crystal Tokyo. Will you tell us more?" Quatre requested.
Serena looked at the Arabian boy, her eyes flickering with tears. "It's painful for me to remember.....but yes.....I will tell you." She agreed, wiping her eyes.
Duo took her in his arms, and held her while she continued to cry. When her tears were spent, she leaned against him, wrapping her arms around his waist.
"Were listening Serena." He assured her, wiping a few tears from her cheeks.
She smiled inspite of her sadness. "Long ago....." Serena began. "I was Neo-Queen Serenity of Crystal Tokyo. I was married to King Eydimiyon. We had a daughter, she was Princess Rini. And we had a court made up of the Guardians of the inner and outer planets, from Mercury to Pluto. Out Kingdom was formed in the 30th century, after the great sleep the Earth was overtaken by. It was considered the new Moon Kingdom. But then....." She paused, closing her eyes, then continued. "Prince Diamond of the Nega Moon came, kidnapped me, and destroyed my Kingdom. He brain washed me with his powers. I was married to him right infront of my former King, and my daughter." She sobbed, leaning her head on Duo's chest, her tears falling uncontrollably.
The other four Gundam Pilots watched as Duo soothed her, their eyes wide, speechless.
"That's what happened to Crystal Tokyo." Quatre raised his eyebrows, shocked.
"Yes." Serena whispered. "All my friends, my court, my husband, and my daughter are dead."
"How did that happen?" Wufei asked.
Serena shook her head. "Diamond.....He sent his followers and droids to despose of them. I watched as my whole Kingdom was destroyed. Then we came here after that, a year ago. That's how I know who you all are. I know you defeated OZ."
"So that's how you knew." Heero raised his eyebrows thoughtfully.
Serena smiled slightly, nodding. "Yes. I saw your battle in outer space. And your capture Duo." She added, looking up at him, her eyes flickering.
Duo's lips curved into a side grin, raising his eyebrows. "Wasn't the best place to be. If you know what I mean? What a way to make a grand appearance." He chuckled.
Serena giggled, sitting up, sliding her hand in his. "Your funny." She commented, smiling.
Heero rolled his eyes, shaking his head.
"Yeah he's real funny." Wufei smirked. "Especially with.....What's his name again? Oh yeah. Sapphire."
Duo glared at the Chinese youth's teasing. "Wufei." He said through clenched teeth.
Serena laughed even louder at Duo expression. "So what did Sapphire want anyway?" She asked a moment later.
Duo tuned bright red in embarrassment, a very uneasy look on his face. "Uh.....I'll tell you later." He grinned sheepishly.
Later that evening.....
"So Diamond is leaving for the L3 Colony huh?" Serena frowned, dressed in her royal black gown, and fixing her hair into it's usual style, then placed the silver crown on.
"Yeah." Duo nodded. "I heard Relena is being held captive there."
"When did you hear that?" Heero demanded.
Duo arched an eyebrow at his friend's tone. "Last week, I eavesdropped on a conversation he was having with Sapphire."
Heero frowned, not saying anything.
Before Serena could ask more.....The door opened, and in walked Diamond and Sapphire.
"Darling I....." He started when he noticed the other four guys in the room, eyeing each one of them.
"Oh. Diamond, these are Elena's friends. Heero, Quatre, Wufei, and Trowa." She introduced them, pointing them out.
"Charmed I'm sure." Diamond nodded at them, then approached Serena, taking both of her hands in his. "I have to go to the L3 Colony. I'll return soon." He explained, kissing her, much to Duo's dismay, who inwardly glared at him. "I see you have some company, so they should keep you occupied." He smiled at his Queen, touching her cheek.
Serena forced a smile, and nodded. "Yes. I won't be to lonely." She agreed.
"Good." Diamond grinned, releasing her hand, and motioned for Sapphire to follow. "Let's go brother."
Sapphire nodded once, and approached Elena. "We'll talk when I come back alright." He smiled.
Duo raised an eyebrow, a fake smile on his face. "Sure." He replied.
Sapphire's smile widened, and he lightly kissed Elena's cheek before following Diamond out the door.
The minute the two left, the room erupted in laughter. Except Wufei's was the loudest.
Duo scowled at him, rubbing his cheek. "Wu-Man shut up." He demanded.
"Looks like Sapphire thinks highly of you." Serena teased.
A forced grin appeared on Duo's lips. "I guess so, but I didn't encourage anything."
"Oh sure Maxwell." Wufei added, still chuckling.
Duo's expression became murderous as he looked at his Chinese friend. "One more word out of you and I'm going to strangle you."
"Oh really.....Try me." Wufei raised an eyebrow, smirking.
"Alright you two, that's enough." Quatre sighed, shaking his head.
"Hmph." Wufei shrugged, still smirking, folding his arms.
Duo rolled his eyes and turned away, focusing his attention on Serena. "You said you were Neo-Queen Serenity. That means new. So who was the original Queen, and what did you mean by new Moon Kingdom?" He asked all at once.
Serena eyes saddened and it was a minute of two before she answered. "The original Queen Serenity was my mother. She ruled the original Moon Kingdom on the Moon thousands of years ago, in a time called the Silver Millennium. I was Princess Serenity then, and Prince Eydimyon was my fiancee." She paused with a slight sigh. "Queen Baryl, an enemy of the Moon, attacked the Kingdom, unleashing the Negaforce, and it destroyed everything."
"Oh my." Quatre raised his eyebrows.
Serena nodded, then continued. "Mother used the Imperium Silver Crystal to seal it away, and to send me, my fiancee, and my court a thousand years into the future to be reborn. The Crystal took all of her energy, and....." He voice trailed off as tears began trailing down her cheeks.
"Shhh....." Duo shushed her, taking her in his arms, trying to comfort her. Serena leaned her head against his chest, closing her eyes. "You can tell us more later. For now, try and relax." He included, running his fingers through her silky blond hair.
"Duo.....There is so much more to tell, but your right.....It can wait." She agreed, staring up at him, her eyes glossy with unshed tears, smiling faintly.
Duo returned the smile, and leaned forward, kissing away a few stray tears on her cheeks.
Heero, up until this point, was silent, listening to her story, but his mind was set on Relena's capture. "I don't know about the rest of you.....But I'm going to the L3 Colony." He said finally.
"What!" Wufei and Quatre said at the same time, staring at the Japanese pilot wide eyed.
"You heard me." Heero frowned, narrowing his eyes.
Duo stared at him, arching an eyebrow. "Are you crazy, it's suicide buddy."
Heero didn't say anything, and took out his gun, reloading it.
"Heero. Don't be foolish. Diamond is two powerful." Serena added, staring at him with fear.
Heero locked eyes with both Duo and Serena, placing his gun back into his jacket. "I don't care.....I have to go.....I'm a Gundam Pilot, and it's for the Colonies." He said before walking out of the room.
Everyone stared at him in shock.
"Don't worry. I'll go with him." Trowa assured them, following his fellow team mate.
"We'll meet up with you." Quatre called after him.
Trowa turned and nodded, then continued on his way, after Heero.
"Heero you fool!" Duo yelled, frowning at him.
"Please be careful you two." Serena whispered, leaning further into Duo's embrace.
