Atrea Knuck14@aol.com Yo!! This is my second fanfic. It's about L telling his story and such to Seiya and Serena and the other scouts...and to the Planet Knights (who made these guys up..you know Mars Knight and such?) Oh well...on with it..oh..I do not own and sailor characters..and Travis is ? Jendra (nice writing Jendra) More Than A Letter ______________________________________________________________________________ L just stared out a window of the temple building they were in (meaning all the planet knights, the three lights and Sailor Moon and all the scouts. "I miss Tuxedo Mask..but Seiya is a good person..and Serena needs someone like that to..' he thought before being jolted back to reality by a ton of pillows hitting the back of his scaly head. "ALRIGHT!! Who threw that?!" he yelled. "Calm down..it's only us" replied a lot of voices. "Oh..hi guys.." L said softly. "L..I wanted to ask you..when I first saw you..I thought I saw a moon on your forehead like mine...is it there or was a dreaming" asked Serena. "Well...it's about time I told you my story princess....so..all of you had better sit down..this could take a long time to tell..." he said pointing to a bunch of beanbags nearby. Each of his friends sat in one in a semi circle around him. All of them look anxious to hear his story so he began with a surprise. L closed his eyes, and after a few seconds the yellow crescent shone on his forehead. Everyone human and cat started in surprise. "You..your from the moon too!" said a surprised Travis. L opened his eyes and smiled. "Yes..I am...now..my story begins.." he said (note the following part isn't a narrated way...like a story within a story) ______________________________________________________________________________ Young Alexander who was only 8, smiles to himself and thinks for a minute. ?Wow...I get to stay with the Moon royalty...this must be a dream..Nah...'He was jolted awake as the carriage he was in shook like crazy then started to turn over. He braced for impact and was knocked into darkness. A few hours later he crawls out of what was left of the carriage and turned his head away for the sight was to gory to look at. Luckily..he was only a mile from the palace so he started walking. He reached the palace in a half hour and went inside for the guards knew he was coming...He weakly knocked on the throne room door hoping the King or Queen or both were in. He rested while a few min later it finally opened and the King peered out. "Yes?" asked King London. "Over here sir..." said Alexander inching his way to the king. London noticed him and called for guards, clean cloth and a doctor. It was the last thing Alex heard before passing out. ______________________________________________________________________________ He opened his eyes and squinted as the sudden rush of light hit him. ?Where am I..oh yeah..the palace.." said Alex. He looked to his left and saw the king and queen asleep in two chairs nearby. He was surprised to see them next to him but he reached over and lightly tapped on London's shoulder. The king woke with a start waking the queen too. London saw Alex was awake and smiled. "You ok kid?" he asked "I think so...thanks for helping me out sir.." said Alexander. Noticing Queen Serenity he bowed his head respectfully. "No need for that" said the Queen. He looked up and winced. His shoulder, head and one hand had bandages wrapped around them. He blinked. "I apologize for..passing out like that..but I was.." Alex started to say. "Don't apologize. It's okay. At least your alright...after all..we need your help to train the mon elements to guard our palace. We know your great with animals so.." said Selene. "Yeah..I am" said Alex with a slight blush which made the royals laugh thus he blushed a deeper red. "I always have been..since I was 3..." "Well..when your healed you will start training the elements we caught awhile back..one of which is very..how should we say..wild" said London. Alex shrugged and said "I can (yawn) handle it sir...right now I'm tired so..g'night" Alex said lying down and falling asleep instantly. The royals watched a second then left him alone so he could rest and get well. ______________________________________________________________________________ Within two weeks Alex was so active and...well..normal that the royals had a hard time keeping up with him. He stepped into the arena where the elements would be released one at a time and he would try to train them. The first one was a red one with a flaming tail called Flame.. ?this will take awhile...' thought Alex. He stepped forward and started the training exercises. ______________________________________________________________________________ 8 years later Alex stood waiting impatiently in the throne room waiting for the Queen, king and their 2 kids whom he used to watch a lot. All the other nobles were watching him, he could sense it. ?Wonder what's with all of them?!' he thought semi peeved people were staring. Finally the throne room doors opened and the royal family came in. The princess was basically a splitting image of the queen whereas the prince resembled London. All the family except King London sat in their respective thrones. "Come young Alex and kneel before me" said the King holding his sword up in front of him. Alex did as he was told and looked at the tile floor. "I dub thee Sir Alexander of the Moon Kingdom..you are now an official guard of this palace and head of the Moon Elemental team. " announced London. The whole area burst into cheers and shouting and the horns blew a salute to welcome the new guard. Alex cried tears of joy..he achieved his greatest dream. "And now..time for the fun and dance part!" The crowd yelled again and pairs of people piled onto the floor as Alex went up to the royal family and the kids each gave him huge hugs. "Whoa kids! Calm down!" he said laughing as the king and queen watched. "He's a great person..he's good with the kids and is a hero" whispered the queen to London. "Yeah...I agree" answered London. ______________________________________________________________________________ The cheerfulness and happiness didn't last for later that year the king died coming home from a planet nearby. The queen may have seemed to be the saddest but Alex was hit the hardest of all. The king took him in when no one else would. It got worse after his 24th birthday when the queen made a terrible announcement. "My family, friends, and my people..we have received news that evil..very evil forces are attacking the Planet Earth. We received this report from their Prince Endymion. They are doing the best they can to prevent those forces from coming to our own home. The prince is here now...and to show we are on their side and mean no harm..we are holding a masquerade ball tonight..you all are invited to attend..that is all for now..we will keep you updated on our situation as stuff happens. Thank you" announced the Queen. The crowds gave very sad cheers and left to get ready for the ball that night. Alex remembered that Serena had fallen for the earth prince and decided that she was well disciplined for a 16yr old. He smiled to himself and got ready. Later that night He watched as Serena danced with endymion. A tiny bit of jealousy hit him but he knew they were meant for each other and stayed out of the way. He went onto a balcony's far edge and looked at the pretty scenery. "Alex?" asked a voice. He turned to see the Prince standing next to him. "Serena told me you were out here..are you alright ?" Endym ion asked. Alex nodded. After talking to endymion ______________________________________________________________________________ He ran alongside the battered queen as best he cou ld for he wasn't in the best shape himself. He, Serenity and two mooncats froze when they saw a horrible sight. "NO! Serena!" yelled the queen ?She took them both!" "No..no..not the princess" said the black cat luna, crying. Both Alex and the white cat Artemis just looked ahead. The queen took the Silver imperium crystal out and placed atop a cresent shaped wand. "No my queen! You use the crystal..you'll die" protested Luna. "I must luna...they will be sent into the future for a better life..and all the guardian animals including you two will be sent ahead too..and you Alex..will become a grey winged elemental that will stay alive for thousands of years" . She raised the wand and shouted Cosmic Moon Power!!. the crystal flashed and the entire moon was engulfed in pinkish light. It faded and the queen was lying on a fallen pillar and thousands of colorful bubbles emerged from the moon's surface and shot down towards earth...the evil was back in it's place and was gone for now. "You did it!" said Luna. ?Good luck my children...' thought the queen looking at Alex now known as L and the two cats. Her head flopped to one side and the wand fell from her hand and hit the ground. "Queen Serenity!" said the two cats before being placed in 2 pods in suspended animation. L was teleported to earth. And thus..ends the story... ______________________________________________________________________________ "And that's my story.." said L as the moon on his forehead disappeared and his story ended. "Wow..I never knew you were actually there L...thanks for telling me.."said Serena giving the saddened L a hug, the story was hard for him to tell. Everyone else joined in and L received the biggest group hug of his life. ?Thanks guys..' he thought. He sighed and put his head on Serena's small shoulder and fell asleep right away.
