Jacinth's Story




    A young prince is lead in to the throne room in Shaizzar and before Queen Beryl by his uncle Demando. The child doesn't move or look around when being presented to her for fear of his uncle's wrath.
  "My Queen, this is Jacinth. He has the potential to be a high rank in our army.." Demando announces.
  "Why do you think that?" Malachite asks from his position near the queen.
  Demando replies "Because of his powers. He has both his fathers and his mothers powers. He has already proven to be quite strong.."
  "For a child..." Jaedite interrupts with a smirk. Demando shoots him an icy glance and simply says "Yes."
  "Saffiru and Prisma are his parents correct?" Neflyte adds.
  "Yes. And his powers sofar are Dark Thunder and Ice blasts."
  "Big deal.. The other little brat ice blasts too.." Jaedite says absently rubbing his ass, which draws a glare from Malachite and giggles from Zoisite.
  "Very well... Begin his training when he's ready. You're all dismissed. Leave." Beryl said to end further discussion
On the way out the child forms an ice puddle infront of Jaedite who falls when he steps on it much to Zoisite's amusement.
  "Woah! SHIT!!" Jaedite screams and looks around and sees blonde pig tails behind the throne. "grrrr.... Why that little... I'll get her..."  He says softly.
  "Oh poor Jaedy fall down go boom?" Zoisite says with a giggle while Neflyte barely controls a smirk and Malachite glares coldly. "Get up you fool." He says colder and steps over Jaedite and walks out with Zoisite right behind.


    Dressed in green and gray pince uniform, Jacinth steps into the training room warily, after seeing a youma nearly flatten his uncle and Malachite yelling at a pretty blonde girl.. Demando nodded to the trainers then left leaving him alone. Another Youma turns to the boy and said "You, Jacinth, lets see what you got. Your uncle Demando says you've been practicing.. But now you're gonna have to start the REAL work." Practicing..  Jacinth thinks to himself  more like training..  But instead of revealing that he smirks and brushes his hair back. "OK sir." He adds and stands relaxed and waits for him to say begin..
 "We'll start off with power blasts" The youma said. Jacinth smiled darkly and quickly shoots off an ice/dark thunder energy beam right at the youma, who wasn't even surprised and teleported.
 "Huh? Wha..? Did I kill him?" JAcinth asks worriedly.
 "Nope, but your uncle warned me of that little trick before." The voice came from behind followed by a quick kick to the head which sent him flying across the floor head first most ungracefully
 "ouch... um.. That hurt... I don't think you where supposed to do that..."
 "Get up and we'll see what else 'I'm not supposed to do.'"
 "Um... No thanks... I think I'll leave now.. Your mommy is calling me."
 "Haha.. Most amusing.. Come on... Lets see what else you can do." The youma was saying totally unaware of the ice ball forming above his head until it was to late and it dropped on him knocking him to the floor.After getting up and dusting himself off Jacinth  starts to head out as Zoisite pokes his head in.
 "Has Al.." he began but was interrupted by the youma's cry of anger as he came to and fired a blast of dark energy at Jacinth. Jacinth turned at the yelling and  sees the blast and instinctively crosses his arms and tries to make an ice shield in time, unnessicarilly because when he opened his eyes Zoisite was infront of him with a shield up.
 "Uh.. Thanks.. But I coulda handled it.." Jacinth said looking away.
 "I'm sure.. Maybe next time ok?" Zoisite replied.
 "Only if you don't wanna help." Jacinth said smartly and walked up then tripped over something and found himself looking at a rather lovely pair of legs. His eye followed them up to the blonde girl with the attitude but what he was thinking was WOW! She's pretty.. I wonder if I could talk to her sometime... His thoughts where interrupted by his uncle telling him to greet her the proper way. Jacinth took her hand and kissed it on her signet ring. Interesting... a gold moon styled like our crest.. he thought to himself Then his uncle was motioning him to leave. Not that Jacinth cared.. he was to busy thinking of the princess...


    Training was pretty much the same, only Zoisite must have told the youma's not to lose there tempers with Jacinth cause as much as he tried and as close as the got, none did again. Demando showed nointrest in his training and soon stopped checking up on him at all. Instead he seemed more interested in the 15 year old girl who was beating up people in training, which was good because then he didn't tell him not to watch her too. Zoisite came occasionally to watch her train but usually left after a few minutes with a saddened expression. Jacinth was curios as to what happened to the pretty young girl and if the 15 year old was her older sister, even though the looked the same, but surely she couldn't have grown that fast. Finally he decided to ask Zoisite what happened to her. The next day he got his chance.
  "Excuse me."
  "Yes?"
  "I was wondering what happened to that girl my age... And where did her sister come from?"
  "That is her.. Unfortunately..." Zoisite sighed.
  "How can she be? she's too old to be."
  "She was aged."
  "Really? Can I be then? She's pretty.. But I don't think she'll talk to a kid.."
  "You're not the only one in your family that likes her unfortunately... Your uncle does too. That's why she was aged."
  "Uncle Demando." Jacinth sighed too. "Why does he have to like the kids now too?" Jacinth asked depressed.
  "What do you mean?" Zoisite asked intrigued.
  "He has all kinds of girls falling on him back home. Daddy says he's a playboy and is gonna find one someday that's gonna be the death of him." Jacinth said with out any sign that his uncles fate would bother him.
  "Oh? You're uncle gets around huh?"
  "Yeah.. And now he likes the only girl here I like..." Jacinth sighed again. "Just like him."
  "You don't like him very much do you?"
  "As in do I like him more then I like his rules? No, atleast the rules make since.. Even though he doesn't follow them either."
  Zoisite giggled at the boy and said "How would you like to have a shot at beating him for Alex and get to be older in the process?"
  "I dun know... Will he punish me?" Jacinth asked worriedly.
  "No. But it will hurt.. alot." Zoisite added looking worried for the child.
  "Uncle taught me that pain is for the lesser people, not the royal family."
  "Oh? Hmm... OK... I'll see you in a few days.. Don't tell ANYONE about this ok?" Zoisite warned.
  "Ok" Jacinth nodded and said.
  "OK. I just need to set everything up. How about next week.. That should give me plenty of time."
  "OK. I better go now. Bye Zoisite" Jacinth said and hugged him innocently. Zoisite smiled as Jacinth left.


    Another week of routine training spars and trying to aggravate the youma trainers while spending his free time thinking about the princess, and being older. When Zoisite found him at the end of the week Jacinth was a ball of anxious energy, even though he did his best to conceal it.
   "Are you ready Jacinth?" Zoisite asked.
   "Yep." Jacinth said and smiled brightly.
   "I think I've managed to find away to dull the pain, but it's going to make it take longer..." Zoisite was saying.
   "Ok. Lets go." Jacinth said and tried to lead Zoisite even though Zoisite was telling him the directions.
    When they reached the aging chamber, Zoisite helped Jacinth in and before closing the door said "Last chance to change your mind."
    "I'm ok. Really." Jacinth said and flashed a smile that people said he got from his uncle, along with the silver-blue streaks in his hair. Zoisite tried to smile back and hide his concern as he closed the door and the energy surrounded Jacinth.
     Jacinth grimaced but didn't yell Instead he put his mind someplace else, like his father taught him.


    After what seemed like hours Jacinth found himself falling to the floor, naked and his short hair aslong as his uncles but mostly black, blue and dark green streaked and patches of silver-blue. The pain of catching himself on his hands and knees shocked him back into reality. He stood up slowly, he was sore and alittle disorented but other wise fine. The he realized he was 15 now. He looked around and nervously and found Zoisite standing up holding a uniform for him.
  "....it'll have to do for now." Zoisite was saying handing him the uniform. Black.. Good. Jacinth thought as he gingerly put it on his new body. Now He'll noticed this fast.. It'll be a sharp contrast to his white one. Jacinth said to himself.
  "Lets go." He said out loud to Zoisite.
  "Go where? You're going to need to rest..." Zoisite was saying as Jacinth was walking away.
  "I'm fine and we're going to find Alexandrite and Demando." Jacinth turned and said coolly. Then added "We've wasted enough time already. Who knows what he's already doing to her." Jacinth turned back to the door and left the room leaving Zoisite wondering if this was a good idea, and if he was going to be as twisted as Alex had become...

 Authors note: Incase noone noticed, Dark Princess and Jacinth's Story are intertwined. The timeline is the Silver Millennium before the fall of the Moon Kingdom. We're working on creating our own universe based off of the Sailor Moon characters. If you want to write a character for the universe we're making, email us and let us know, but we have to know what major things you're planing so that we can work them into the story line. Eventually we want to get stories from both the Dark Kingdom and the Moon Kingdom.
