Author's Note on disclaimer: Sailor Moon does NOT belong to me (and it never will but I 
do hope it does) so DON'T SUE ME!!!!  The story DOES belong to me.  Don't take it 
without my permission!  
The Scouts and Princess Serena are all 17 right now.  Darien is 21, Zoysite is 20, Jaedite 
is 21, Nephrite is 23, and Malachite is 24.
Another thing is that in the last chapter (or the first chapter) I had hinted that they arrived 
on Earth before lunch...well, I was wrong.  They arrived just AFTER lunch.  

Eternal Love...For You
Chapter 3
By:  Silver Star


	"OUCH!  THAT HURTS!"  Mina yelped as she landed on her bottom.
	"Here, let me help you."  A deep male voice said.  An outstretched hand appeared 
in front of Mina's vision.  
	"Huh?"  Mina looked up and saw the most gorgeous man in the world!  He had 
shoulder length silver-white hair and icy-blue eyes that were so pale that almost look like 
gray.  He's wearing a silvery-gray uniform with white trimming.  The top two buttons of 
the uniform was undone, showing his smooth and tan skin.  A white cape was attached to 
his uniform by the shoulder.  Pink hearts immediately appeared in Mina's eyes.  
	Mina jumped up so fast that her dress flared up.  
	"Name's Mina."  Mina said, sticking out her right hand for a shake.
	"Malachite."  He said, shaking her hand.  As he walked away, he flashed her a 
winning smile that worth more than million dollars.  At that moment, Mina's heart 
melted.  
	"What a guy..."  

	<Why did I do that?>  Malachite asked himself as he walked down the hall to 
catch-up with the other Generals.  His gazed at his surrounding.  Usually, he thought it 
was beautiful and elegant but now, after meeting her, the whole palace seemed to lose its 
beauty.  It seemed as if it were all absorbed by Mina.  Her face seemed to be glowing and 
her eyes...such a beautiful shade of sapphire blue.  The whole palace seemed to be so 
empty now.
	He groaned softly to himself.  <I can't fall in love now!  And besides, she 
probably won't feel the same.>  He suddenly frowned.  <I wonder why I never seen her 
before.  With her beauty, she must be know pretty far if she had been here for a while.>  
His face turn from frown to thoughtful.  <Could she be...?  No.  Probably not.  What am I 
kidding?  Those five princesses from the Moon will probably be at some place gossiping 
about things.  I wonder if I could ever meet her again...probably not.>  He sighed.  <Well, 
got work to do...I think.>

	<What a hunk!>  Mina thought to herself as she watched Malachite go.  <That 
smile...ah...> She sighed with a dreamy smile on her face.  She suddenly turned around 
and raced up to her room.  Her long skirt flared behind her like the golden ray of the sun.  
Her face beaming, almost like the sun itself.  <I can't wait to see him again!  I'll bet I 
could see him at the ball that the maid had told me about!  I better get ready, though.  I 
want to look my very best!>  She opened the door and then went in.  <I will look my very 
best!>  She stopped herself at the doorway and looked back.  <They don't call me the 
goddess of love and beauty for nothing you know.>  She suddenly smiled an evil smile.  
<I am Princess Mina of Venus.  Cute guys get ready!  Here I COME!!!!!>

	"So...who was that girl that you bumped into?"  Jaedite asked slyly, leaning on the 
window-frame of Malachite's room.  
	"I don't know.  Probably a new maid or something."  Malachite said causally, 
controlling his emotion and his expression.  
	"Are you sure?"  Zoysite asked, sitting on a chair, looking calm as usual.  "She 
did wore a pretty expensive dress.  She doesn't look like a maid."  
	"Yeah.  She's too cute to be a maid!"  Jaedite added with a laugh.
	"Stop it you two.  We have to get ready to meet the Moon Queen and Princess and 
her court."  Malachite said.  
	"Ooohh...I hit a nerve didn't I?  Haha!  I hit a nerve, I hit a nerve."  Jaedite sang.  
	"Jaedite?  Shut up or I'll shut you up."  Malachite said, annoyed by the third 
General's reaction.  Jaedite immediately shut up but not before giving Malachite 'the 
look'.  
	"We can't meet them until the prince is back."  Zoysite said calmly, not at all 
disturbed by Jaedite's teasing and Malachite's violent advice.    
	Malachite frowned.  "He's still not back?"  He asked.
	"Relax, Mal.  We've only been away from him for twenty-three minutes!  Not 
even a half-hour yet!"  Jaedite said.  Just then, the sound of the hoofs of horses drifted 
into Malachite's room.  
	"They are back!"  Jaedite said.  
	"Why did I only hear one horse?"  Malachite asked no one in particular, frowning 
at the same time.  
	"It's either Nephrite or Endymion, then."  Zoysite said.
	"Come on, let's go."  Malachite said as he walked toward the door of his room.  
Soon, they arrived at the main entrance.  What they saw, however, took them by surprise.  
	"Hmm...Nephrite never take any woman to the palace before."  Malachite said to 
himself.  
	"Hey, guys.  Look who I met in the woods!"  Nephrite said cheerfully, hopping 
off the horse.  Malachite, Zoysite, and Jaedite exchanged looks.  Nephrite has never been 
so happy ever since the news about his childhood love married another.  
	"This Princess Lita of Planet Jupiter.  Also known as Sailor Jupiter."  Nephrite 
said as he made a move to get Lita off the horse.  Lita blushed in embarrassment about 
something and then hopped off herself without Nephrite's help.  For a moment, Nephrite's 
eyes filled with hurt but they soon disappeared.  
	Lita curtsied.  "I'm glad to meet you..." She trailed off as she realized that she 
doesn't know the their names.
	"Where were my manners.  Princess Lita, this is the First Commander Malachite, 
Third Commander Jaedite, and Fourth Commander Zoysite." Nephrite said, pointing at 
each of them in turn.  
	"I'm glad to meet you, too, Princess Lita."  Jaedite said, kissing her hand.  Lita 
blushed and took back her hand.  

	He's jealous.  Nephrite admitted to himself now.  He's jealous because Lita liked 
Jaedite instead of him.  He's jealous because...because...because he loved her and she 
doesn't love him back.  <Love at first sight.  I never believed it before but now...> He 
sighed, thinking of his first love.  A girl named Molly.  <Why can't you just admit that 
you are no good for love?> He asked himself bitterly.  Lita interrupted his thoughts.  

	"I better get back or my friends will get worried."  Lita said to the three 'gorgeous' 
guys in front of her.  <Well, they are gorgeous but not as handsome as Nephrite.>  She 
quickly turned around to face the palace instead of the four Generals, to hide the blush 
that crept onto her cheeks.  
	"Are you going to go to the Ball tonight?"  Nephrite's voice drifted to Lita's ears.  
Lita's heart started to jump faster than normal.  <Is he going to ask to escort me?  Is he 
interested in me?  Oh my god...is there ANY ball?  Why didn't I know of it?>  Questions 
filled her head but no answers.  
	"What Ball?"  She blurted out, spinning around to face the four slightly confused 
Generals.  
	"The Ball tonight...the celebration for the arrival of the Moon's Court."  Jaedite 
answered.  
	"Really?!"  Lita asked excitedly.  She waited for a few seconds, almost expecting 
Nephrite to ask to escort her.  Seconds past and nobody said a word.  Uncomfortable 
silence quickly filled the space around them.  Lita suddenly spins around to hide the 
disappointment, her long green skirt flared around her feet.  <He's not asking me...oh 
well, there are a lot of other guys...> Somehow, the disappointment just got a lot bigger.  
"Well, I gotta get ready!"  She said with fake cheerfulness and then sped up to her 
assigned room.  

	"Where's the Prince?"  Malachite asked as soon as Lita was out of hearing range.  
	"Last time I've seen him was in the woods."  Nephrite said.  "I think he's still 
there."  
	"Don't worry, Mal.  He can take care of himself!  He's 21 for god's sake!"  Jaedite 
exclaimed.  
	"Fine then.  We better get ready to meet rest of the princesses when Darien's 
back."  Malachite said.  "Or maybe we could train."  He added.  
	"Um...you know what?  I just remember that I...ah...had an appointment with 
the...ah...doctor!  Yeah, that it, the doctor.  So see ya later, Mal!"  With that, Jaedite take 
off toward the town.  
	"What about you guys?"  Malachite asked.  
	"I still haven't finish that book I've been reading so I'll be getting back at that."  
Zoysite said, walking back into the palace again.  
	"Well, I hope you have a good time."  Nephrite said, smiling at the irony of the 
difference of Zoysite and Jaedite.  
	"What excuse do YOU have, Nephrite?"  Malachite asked.  
	"I don't know.  Maybe I'll get ready for the meeting with the princesses and the 
Ball.  Sorry, Mal.  See you later!"  With that final word, Nephrite's gone.  
	Malachite sighed.  "Well, training by myself is not really fun.  I think I'll just go 
back to my room and wait for Darien to come back."  He said to no one in general.  "I 
wonder what Darien is doing."

********
*In the Library*

  Zoysite pushes opened the door to the Library eagerly, wanting to finish the book.  He 
suddenly froze halfway inside the Library.  <Papers.  Somebody's in here.>  He silently 
closed the door and crouched down.  <Hmm...  From the speed of the sound of paper, this 
person either read fast or just leafing through the books...  Whoever this person was, it 
was leafing though each pages, too.  Possibly looking for something...but what?>

	While Zoysite wrack his head trying to figure out what this 'person' was looking 
for in a book, Amy had put a piece of paper on the page she has been reading on and 
started to leaf through the book.  She had heard the door of the Library opened and closed 
and was a little suspicious of whoever was in the room.  From what she could see, this 
person has not seen her yet but was just looking for cover in the numerous bookcases and 
so she started to just leaf through the book to let the intruder think that she hasn't 
suspected a thing while she took out her transformation pen.  
	She took off her slippers and stood up slowly, still leafing through the book 
though more slowly, knowing that whoever was in the room with her might suspect she 
already knew it was there.  
	She picked up the book gently, making sure to not make a sound, and tiptoed 
across the huge Library.  She walked silently to the last column of bookcases that was the 
only thing between her and the intruder.  She slowly lean toward the bookcase and...

To be continued...

  WHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!  Amy thinks that Zoysite was the intruder and Zoysite thinks 
that Amy was the intruder!  How IRONIC!  Okay, okay, I'm sane so don't worry.  I hope 
you like chapter 3.  I spend a long time on it even though it's only about five pages long.
