Saturn of the Nega Moon
Part Two �Now what, my Lord?� Hotaru asked as she looked at Prince Saffiru. He looked into her eyes and she looked back into his and he shook his head and turned. Shrugging, Hotaru walked down the hallway back towards the battle arena of the Kingdom. As she walked, Hotaru thought silently about what her next challenger would be the next day, hoping it would be someone decent for a change. She stepped into the box of Prince Dimando and Princess Esmeraude and kneeled down in between their thrones, her head bowed down. �Hotaru, you did very well today,� Prince Dimando said as he continued to watch the battle. �Yes, very well I�d say.. But what else is to be expected of the Shi no Senshi?� Princess Esmeraude asked as she lifted her fan up and laughed into it. Hotaru and Prince Dimando cringed at her laugh, always have had found it annoying. �Is there anything else you require of me, Prince Dimando?� Hotaru asked as she continued to kneel in between Prince Dimando and Princess Esmeraude�s thrones. �No, Hotaru, that is all. You may go,� Prince Dimando said. Nodding, Hotaru stood up and bowed to them respectively, turned, and walked out of their box, only to find Prince Saffiru alone again. �Hello again,� Prince Saffiru said as Hotaru walked down the hallway. �Are you going to follow me all day?� She asked, not bothering to look over her shoulder. �Do you want me to?� He asked as he caught up to her pace and looked over at her. �Not really,� She replied as she turned down into another hallway. �Oh�� He said. �Umm.. Hotaru, can you stop for a moment?� �Why?� �Just trust me,� He said. Sighing, Hotaru stopped and turned around to face him, only to get the feel of his lips upon hers. Her eyes opened up wide, the light in the hallway reflecting off them to make them appear even more gem like. Hiding in the shadows, Prisma, one of the Four Sisters of the Nega Moon Kingdom, watched them. A look of anger was upon her face as she thought to herself �That little bitch better get her lips off my precious Prince Saffiru�s if she knows what�s good for him.� She had her hands clenched at her sides as she continued to watch them, not seeing Hotaru or Prince Saffiru move to break the kiss. Hotaru�s heart raced as she closed her eyes and slowly started to kiss him back. Prince Saffiru slipped his arms around her waist and held her close to him while Hotaru set her hands on his shoulders, her heart continuing to race as thoughts ran through her mind. �Why would he kiss me? I like him and everything, but does he like me too? Oh my god this is�. Amazingly wonderful.� The feelings inside of her heart turned from confusion to feelings of happiness. In the shadows, Avery�s anger continued to build more with each moment that Hotaru continued to kiss Prince Saffiru. Then, suddenly, a wicked grin spread across her face as she started to form plans in her head. She turned and walked in the shadows down the hall towards the private box of Prince Dimando and Princess Esmeraude. Slowly Prince Saffiru broke the kiss and Hotaru opened her eyes to gaze into his. He lifted his hand up and brushed a few strands of her black hair out of her eyes as he gazed into her dark purple, amethyst colored eyes. �I�.� Hotaru started to say, but found she couldn�t, being speechless for the first time in her life. He smiled at her as he continued to gaze into her eyes. �Have a good sleep, Fire Fly� he said and walked off down the hall, leaving her to stand there and wonder silently to herself. |
