Only... No one was sure what the King would like. Hence a lot of colours and styles were being used.
Some women jammed themselves in a dress two sizes too small. Others found evening gowns to fit their curves. Imports of clothing from Venus and Neptune were brought in, trying to find the perfect style!
Lady Chon of Mercury was the youngest Chancellor in the known history of their planet, hence she knew she was going to meet the King often to discuss matters of the state... and perhaps something more personal. She decided on to meet the King in her new kimono, a deep blue with golden and silver trimming with the symbol of mercury above the heart, stitched in gold upon the fabric. At 5’1 she still managed to have the people look up to her and with her shoulder length light blue hair and silver framed glasses she looked as intelligent as she was.
Lady Alica, daughter of the Chancellor of Venus chose a very curve hugging yellow gown with orange trim with a deep V neckline showing everything from cleavage to her belly button. The fact she was 5’9 and had a D sized cup didn’t hurt either along with her ankle long blonde hair trailing behind her in a perfect braid.
Lady Lyn of Mars was the Second in Command of the Martian Army and decided on a suit of armour that more closely resembled a metal and polished one piece bathing suit with knee high boots and elbow length gauntlets. She was tall for a woman of the New Moon Kingdom, and at 6’2 she towered over many of her co-workers. Her bright red hair was cut short and practical so it wouldn’t get into her face. At the moment she was torn between trying to decide if she should take her normal sword or the one she received for her birthday, a stylized Neptune Blade.
Lady Mel was the most famed knight of Jupiter and stood at 5’8, her waist long hair kept loose behind her looking like a light brown waterfall. She wore her finest full plate armour, her sword and shield polished to perfection. She was Jupiter’s foremost knight, and she did so hope she could serve the King well as his knight. Maybe even his lady?
Lady Cortana of Saturn was among the most powerful mages the Kingdom had this day, despite her age. At 4’10 she didn’t look impressive, sporting a B Cup and long hair kept in a coiled bun behind her head. Still she decided to make her best first impression, wearing a deep purple dress that flowed just a couple inches above the floor.
Lady Miranda of Uranus stood at about 5’7 and kept her silver hair tied back in a ponytail. Although she was the daughter of the Chancellor of Uranus, and her shapely and toned body, 36 D cup breast and full lips made her a drop down gorgeous woman... she didn’t care for politics or succeeding her Father, much to the aforementioned Father’s dismay. Instead she wanted to become an engineer and spent more time with oils caked on her face than makeup. Still, her Mother talked her into a pale blue gown with high slits in the sides, a neckline that showed her generous cleavage, high heels (“Mom, I can't run around in these!”) and a white, lacy thong. (“This thing digs into my butt, what’s wrong with going commando anyway?”) Still, she was excited to meet the King... Maybe she could even become the Kingdom’s Head Engineer!
Lady Ninian of Neptune was not only a student of dance, but the Niece of Chancellor Nils and Lady Noin. She stood at 5’4 and sported long pale green hair kept in three ponytails, each running down to the beginning of her thighs. She decided upon a one piece dress that ended just shy of the middle of her shaped and toned thighs. Earrings imported from Venus and anklets and bracelets forged upon her home world decorated her body. She was hoping to perform a dance for her King, and perhaps even more.
And from the Moon itself was Lady Mariah. It was never hard to spot the daughter of the New Moon Kingdom’s Chancellor, her waist long pink hair made sure of that. She kept her bright hair in two long braids that trailed down to her shapely bottom, bangs framing her cute face. And Mariah was as excited as could be, seeking out the best possible gown she could find, finally settling on a dress not unlike what the late Queen Serenity wore only in a nice shade of pink with light blue designs adorning it, her well sized C cup breasts and hourglass figure filling it perfectly. All she could talk about to her Father was how great it was that King Tenma would be coming back, and how much she wanted to meet him. The old man she called a Father nodded as she rambled on, but sat deep in thought as he thought of the subject.
Eight beautiful woman, all seeking the attentions of the reborn King in hopes to become Queen, (Except two, one of which was Miranda. “I don’t swing that way! OK, I swing both ways, but I need to focus on my new ship designs, not the horizontal tango!”) all of a Kingdom who loved and adored their founding ruler and wanted him back on the throne STASAP. (Sooner Than As Soon As Possible)
Except one man. The Chancellor.
He had ruled this Kingdom for one-hundred-twenty-two years, seven months, eight days and thirty-five minutes.
As one would expect he was somewhat obsessed with his own rule.
And now the King would return? Why couldn’t he wait another thousand years or so! It was his ancestor who took over the Moon Kingdom when Tenma died, it should be his bloodline that ruled, not Tenma’s!
That caused him to think of his own daughter. She was over excitable, thought more about others than her bloodline and ate obscene amounts of ice cream! And some how kept her figure perfect! He doubted another being like that could exist!
Somewhere on Earth a Sailor Suited Warrior for Love and Justice sneezed. In the name of the Moon, of course.
He had two ways of ensuring his bloodline’s rule. The first was to have his daughter marry Tenma.
Except that wouldn’t work. It couldn’t. Not because she wasn’t beautiful, and he supposed her kindness might attract the King. But it wouldn’t work.
BECAUSE SHE WAS A GOD DAMNED LESBIAN!
At least it explained why she and Lady Miranda were such good ‘friends’.
Hence that left one last course of action. Kill the King and spawn another child to be his heir. Sure, Mariah could lead the people, although he suspected she’d fail at it, but it’s hard to have a child and continue a bloodline when your love interest is the same gender as you!
Of course killing the King wouldn’t be an easy task, he WAS the Great Warrior King who killed over a hundred demons summoned by Beryl, the only one capable of wielding the Crescent Moon Sword, and rightful King by his own words. He’d have to rally the entire armed forces to assist him but there was no one else who didn’t like the King beside himself. And he couldn’t challenge Tenma himself, he was a capable warrior, but against the Warrior King? And that was assuming no one else killed him for attacking the King!
Hence when he reached his room he took out a big book entitled ‘One Hundred and One Ways to Murder Someone and Get Away Scot Free’ and began to read and plot.
