Very slowly, she walked through the halls of the Moon palace. It was dark already, almost midnight. She took a few steps, then stopped and listened for any strange sound. Then, she resumed her walking again. Very soon, she reached her door, and making sure nobody was looking, silently opened the door, and entered, closing it behind her. She sighed, and was about to turn the lights on, when they did by themselves. Blinking, she adjusted her sight to the new light, and saw as Serenity, Jupiter, Venus and Mars were sitting on her bed, grinning devilishly.

"So, how was your thinking journey, Mercury?" asked Mars.

"It went... fine," she answered, trying to sound normal.

"It did? And where did you go?" asked Venus this time.

"To... to... to Titan. Yeah, that's it, to Titan, in Jupiter."

"Are you sure? My people never saw any princess in there today," said Jupiter.

"Well, I went by myself. No carriage, or court or anything like that."

"Really, but you couldn't have gone there by yourself. No one is allowed to enter without any proper identification" said Jupiter again.

"Well,...I... why do I have to answer your questions any way? And stop looking at me like that. Erase that fool grin out your face. It's not like I am in problems."

"You sure?" smiled Serenity. "If you don't wanna tell us where did you go, we may have to tell you."

"You... you know where I went?"

"Oh, indeed we do," answered the Moon princess.

"And where may it be?"

"You went to Earth," they chorused.

"WHAT?? How did you... I mean, that's not true."

"It isn't? We have proof." "You do? What proof." Venus stood up from the bed, and started pacing around her. "So, you do admit you went down there?"

"Of course not. What interest would I have to go to Earth?"

"Well," said Mars matter-of-factly, "an orange haired reason maybe...."

Mercury immediately blushed, and quietly tried to deny it. "I didn't go to Earth. I dare you to prove I did."

"If you say so, look." Venus had now reached her side, and taking her hand, placed her arm against hr own. "This is our proof."

"What do you mean?" Serenity giggled, and said: "Look at your skin." Mercury did as told, and a big sweatdrop formed in the back of her head.

However, she still tried to hide it. "What's with my skin?"

"It appears to me she left her brains down there," said Mars. "Look at your skin. It's tanned. Tanned by sunlight. Minako's and the rest of us are white, and yours is almost brown. Now did you or didn't you went to Earth and spent the day at the beach, with some General we know?"

Mercury blushed again, and accepted the truth. "Yes I did." Everyone yelled: "Yes!! we did it." "Now, Mercury," said Serenity, "tell us everything that happened."

"But nothing happened."

All the girls chorused threateningly: "Queen Sereeeenityyyy... .."

"Ok, Ok. I'll tell you what happened…"


In Earth. Zoisite entered the earth palace quietly. He hid everywhere he could, avoiding the night-guard. He climbed up the stairs, and reached his room. He entered it, and almost screamed as four shadows fell over him. "Who are you?"

"My, my. So he doesn't even recognize us now."

"Jadeite, guys, never ever do that again." The lights turned on, and Zoisite saw that his friends were all there, smiling wickedly.

"What are you guys doing in my room? It's almost midnight."

Kunzite mock-frowned, and said: "And what were you doing out there at this hour?"

"Well, I was, I was, walking a little. I was suffocated in here."

"You did? Then why didn't you enter your room in all day. You left at 10 in the morning, and return at almost 12 in the night. That was a looong walk for me."

"Well, I kinda... sort of... got entertained."

"Yeah," said Endymion, "By a blue haired princess."

Zoisite blushed, but hid it by waving his hand in front of him.

"Who? I don't know any princess with blue hair."

"Oh you don't? Then we will have to call Queen Gaeia, and tell her that one of her son's guardians is being lazy..." said Neflyte.

"Hey, but I didn't do anything."

"There may be a way so that we forgive you," said Endymion.

"What is it?"

"Tell us everything that happened with Princess Mercury...."

"Princess who?"

Endymion's brow went up, and said: "Mooootherrrr."

"Ok, ok. I did met her today."

"Spill it out quick Zoi. We wanna hear everything... .."

 

The end.
