1 The Dark Rainbow Crystal Chapter Three | |
2 by Black Rose | |
3 | |
4 Serena stared out the window watching the rainfall, as long as it | |
5 wasn't thundering; it was one of her favorite thing to do. She turned | |
6 her head to see her husband reading at his desk. They were in their | |
7 study. The room had a big window that looked out the backyard. The | |
8 room had high shelves stacked with many books. | |
9 He glanced up and smiled at her, she smiled back. | |
10 She walked over to her desk and sat down. | |
11 "Darien, are Trista and Hotaru going to stop in today?" | |
12 "Yes, around ten." His wife looked at the clock that read nine-forty- | |
13 five. | |
14 "I hope Hotaru is alright, she's been taking this blindness really | |
15 well," she though while looking over some papers. | |
16 | |
17 In one of the gardens, Hotaru was standing in the rain with one of | |
18 her mother; who is working on planting some carnations. "Mother that | |
19 smells really sweet," she said while holding the blossoms in her | |
20 hands. | |
21 "I know and this rain is helping them get healthy and strong," | |
22 Michelle replied. | |
23 "Hotaru, it's time to go talk to the Queen and King," someone yelled | |
24 form behind. | |
25 She turned when she heard Trista call her name. | |
26 "Coming!" | |
27 Michelle gazed up at her, "Go on, I can finish up here." | |
28 "Thanks Michiru-mama." Her daughter said while getting her talking | |
29 cane and slowly she started to step to the door. | |
30 As the two started to walk to the Queen and King were talking about | |
31 different things. | |
32 "I see you're becoming accustomed to walking with the cane," | |
33 "Yap, it didn't take me that long to learn how to use it." | |
34 She could sense that her mother was worried about something, but | |
35 didn't know what was occupying her mind. "Mother, is there something | |
36 wrong?" | |
37 "Oh, I just have this feeling that something is wrong with the | |
38 timeline, you see about four days ago, I was working in my study, | |
39 talking to Rini and Helios. I got this feeling something came out of | |
40 gate; but when I went to inspect it, I found absolutely nothing wrong | |
41 with it." They stopped in front of the door to the Queen's study. | |
42 "I don't feel any evil," Hotaru though. Trista knocked on the door; | |
43 she could hear the Queen beckoning them to come in. Trista opened the | |
44 door, and closes the door behind them. | |
45 | |
46 In a different part of the Palace, Rini, Helios is talking with | |
47 Luna and Diana. | |
48 They were sitting in the living room. A fire had let in the faire | |
49 place and the warmth radiating heat through out their bodies. The | |
50 room was large and comfortable. Overstuffed chairs and long formal | |
51 couches were placed in clusters. Pretty pillows of coordinating | |
52 materials were on all of the pieces of furniture. | |
53 The comfort of the room led the friends to start discussing the | |
54 details of the impending wedding. Mental pictures of the ceremony and | |
55 reception led to dreams of future children, homes, and places the | |
56 couple would share as they grew older, still enjoying each others | |
57 company. | |
58 "So are you guys considering on having kids, because you know your | |
59 mother counting on you to have an heir?" asked Luna | |
60 Rini just blushed real red. The thought of having Helios' children | |
61 made her feel nervous and excited at the same time. | |
62 "Well, I don't have to worry about having kids, because I'm getting | |
63 married to the hottest babe in the hold kingdom," Diana replied with | |
64 a big grin. | |
65 "I can see it now your kids asking why they have a tale," Helios | |
66 said with a glint of sarcasm. They all laughed, as Diana got red | |
67 faced. | |
68 "How is Hotaru doing?" asked Luna turning from looking out the window. | |
69 "Amy said the blindness has a time limit, it toke her all night but | |
70 she knew that much," replied the pink princess. | |
71 "Well that's good right?" questioned Diana | |
72 "I don't know, but her eyes may never be the same," Luna said | |
73 setting down next to her daughter. | |
74 "Well, its better then being blinded forever," Helios replied | |
75 holding on to Rini. | |
76 Rini loved the feeling she was getting from the way her fiancé was | |
77 holding her. The laughing and talking went on. No one notice a young | |
78 lady outside was watching them from window in the rain. | |
79 "Don't get to comfortable my Queen and King, for your time is about | |
80 up." she said | |
81 "What are you doing out here, in the rain?" a little voices from | |
82 behind her. | |
83 She turned around a young girl with blond hair, and wearing a bright | |
84 pink raincoat and hat. She seemed care free and friendly. | |
85 "My name is Dainae, what is yours?" she asked. | |
86 "Sierra, what are you doing out here?" | |
87 "Mother said I could play in the rain, do you want to play with me?" | |
88 she asked holding her out her hand. | |
89 Sierra just looked at her, slowly reached out and touched her hand. | |
90 As their hands meet the two felt a powerful connection to one | |
91 another. The feeling of sadness came into Sierra's heart, but didn't | |
92 show it. Finally, Dainae tried to pull her new friend into one of the | |
93 puddles. The pair of paint-sized girls played, Dainae's mother | |
94 watched from the kitchen. "She looks so happy with her new friend, | |
95 but were did she come from?" | |
96 She turned back to the girls, in the corner of her eyes she saw a | |
97 woman standing in the rain. "How and the hell did she get there, and | |
98 why is she standing in the rain with out a raincoat, or an umbrella." | |
99 Mina got her umbrella, and walked outside. "Would you like something | |
100 to keep you out of the rain?" | |
101 The other woman turned around to see the Queen of the Planet Venus, | |
102 holding an umbrella over both of there heads. She then looked back to | |
103 the girls playing in the rain. | |
104 "Is that your daughter?" asked Venus pointing to the girl with short | |
105 black hair. | |
106 "Yes, that's Sierra." | |
107 "May I ask your name?" | |
108 "Oh, sorry about being rude, I'm name is Gaia," with a little bow. | |
109 "I'm….." | |
110 "I knew how you are Princess Venus, or as your friend call you Mina | |
111 and little one playing with my daughter is Dainae," with little nod. | |
112 Venus was just looking at her and nodded as well. | |
113 "Would you like to come in and warm up?" | |
114 "Thank you that would be nice." | |
115 Venus turned her head to the girls "Girls we'll be inside if you | |
116 need us." | |
117 The girls looked over said ok and went back to what they were doing. | |
118 The two ladies walk into the palaces, and closed the door behind them. | |
119 "What do you think they're going to talk about, Sierra?" Dainae asked. | |
120 "I really don't knew" | |
121 "Ha, do you want to see my room? Dainae begged holding her friend's | |
122 hand. | |
123 Sierra couldn't help but smile at this, "It's been a very long time | |
124 since I've felt like this," she though. She felt a hand pulling on | |
125 hers. | |
126 "Come on!" | |
127 "I'm coming, keep your shirt on," with a playful tune. This made | |
128 Dainae blush a little. | |
129 They walk pasted their mothers and down the hall to Dianae's room. | |
130 The mothers were in the living room were Rini, Helios, Luna, and | |
131 Diana were already gone. So it was just the two of them. | |
132 "I'll have a maid get you some dry closes," | |
133 "Thanks you." | |
134 "You're welcome Gaia" | |
135 "Venus are you in their?" asked a voice coming from the great hall. | |
136 "Yes, I'm," she responded smiling at Gaia. | |
137 A woman with ocean green hair entered with a flowing satin gown. The | |
138 material shimmered in the light revealing a lavender tint to the | |
139 fitted gown. The dress was lovely. The gorgeous figure of the woman | |
140 was highlighted by the cut of the gown and flowing material from the | |
141 shawl. Her shiny aqua hair was pulled back with a bow made of the | |
142 same material as the dress. Earring hung from her ears and showed off | |
143 her beautiful black eyes and exotic neckline. | |
144 "Oh, I didn't know that you were having company," Neptune said | |
145 taking a look at the other woman in the room. A wave of recognition | |
146 overcame Neptune as she gazed into the stunning woman's eyes. "This | |
147 woman has the same sadness in her eyes has my daughter," she though. | |
148 At the same moment, Gaia look at her, "Is there something wrong?" | |
149 "No" | |
150 "Neptune this is Gaia, her daughter is playing with Dainae in her | |
151 room," said Venus | |
152 "Hello," she replied holding out her hand. | |
153 "Pleased to meet you" shaking her hand. | |
154 "Princess Venus, close you asked for," said the maid walking up to | |
155 them and handing it to her. It was pale pink with spaghetti strap | |
156 dress. There was a beautiful sheen to the material. The A line cut of | |
157 the dress would show all of the curves and the two ties for her dark | |
158 hair would make the outfit magnificent. | |
159 "Thank you for the gift, Princess Venus, is there some were that I | |
160 could change," Gaia asked. | |
161 "You can use my room, oh and Venus, the Queen would like to see | |
162 you," Neptune said. | |
163 "I will keep your friend company, in tell you return," | |
164 "Is this ok with you?" asked Venus | |
165 Gaia just nodes her head and then Venus walk out of the room. | |
166 "Well, we better get you into those close, please come this way," | |
167 replied Neptune show her the way. As both were in deep thought as | |
168 they walked down the hall. They ran into Rini and Helios. They both | |
169 stopped, and bow. | |
170 "Neptune, who's your friend," Rini requested. | |
171 "This is Gaia, she is a friend of Venus's," she replied. | |
172 "We're you from?" asked Rini with a smile. | |
173 "I'm sorry, I can't give that information out, I'm truly sorry | |
174 Princess, I'll just get my daughter and go,' she said with sadness. | |
175 She walked pass them, and headed to Diane's room. The three just | |
176 looked at one another, then Neptune walk after her. | |
177 "Did I say something wrong?" Rini though. | |
178 "I think we better let Hotaru's mother deal with it," Helios said | |
179 taking Rini's hand and led her to the living room. Rini looked down | |
180 the hall one more time. | |
181 | |
182 In Diane's room the two girls were looking at a new wedding dress | |
183 book. Diane found it next to the Princess's room. "What do you think | |
184 of this one," she asked pointing to a woman in a white silk dress | |
185 with shimmers, with a white rose in front and a little bow in the | |
186 back. | |
187 "I like it too," replied Sierra. As she turned the page, they heard | |
188 a knock on the door. | |
189 "Who is it?" asked the girls at the same time, they both looked at | |
190 one another, and laughed. | |
191 "It's me Gaia, my I come in?" | |
192 "Come in," she heard someone say, so she opened and walked in. | |
193 From the look in her mother's eyes, Sierra knew that something was | |
194 wrong. | |
195 "Mother, you ok?" she asked getting off the floor. | |
196 "I would like know the same thing?" asked a woman standing behind | |
197 Gaia. | |
198 Gaia turned around to see Neptune standing there with a worried face. | |
199 "I sorry about that, I don't like to talk about were I'm from," Gaia | |
200 told her. | |
201 "That is alright, the Princess sometimes doesn't think before she | |
202 speaks," Michelle said with a shrug of understanding. | |
203 The two girls laughed when they heard this. The two older women | |
204 started to laugh with the girls. After they stopped laughing Sierra | |
205 saw a dress in her mother hand. | |
206 "Mother, why do you have a dress?" | |
207 "Oh, this?" looking down at it. "I got this from Mina's maid because | |
208 I'm wet." | |
209 "Dainae, would it be alright, if I used your room to change?" | |
210 "Sheer," replied Dainae. The three of them walked out of the room, | |
211 and closed the door behind them. As the three waited in the hall | |
212 Michelle looked at the two girls talking. | |
213 "What is your name?" asked Michelle looking at Dainae's friend. | |
214 "Who me?" asked Sierra. Michelle just nodded her head. | |
215 "I'm Sierra," she said with a bow. | |
216 "It's nice to meet you, Sierra, I'm….." | |
217 "I knew how you are Princess Neptune, your one of the mothers to | |
218 Princess Saturn, and your wife is Princess Uranus," interrupt Sierra. | |
219 Michelle was shocked. | |
220 "How did this girl know so much about her," she thought. | |
221 The door opened, and Gaia came out. | |
222 "You look very nice," Michelle said. The girls just smiles and | |
223 nodded in agreement. | |
224 "Thanks for the compliment," replied Gaia. | |
225 "Mother, you're smiling, it's been a while," her daughter said. | |
226 "I think your right," | |
227 | |
228 Venus walked into the Queen and King's study, and sat down. | |
229 "Venus, I asked you here, because I need to know if anything was out | |
230 of place?" asked The Queen. | |
231 "From what we knew, about four days ago, the weather went a little | |
232 wacky, it started to rain, and snow, then it stopped. What is really | |
233 weird is that no one knew noticed it, but us," said Trista. | |
234 "About four days ago," the King thought. | |
235 "Darien, is there something wrong? His wife asked. | |
236 He was in deep though, has he got up and walked to the window, he | |
237 looked out side. | |
238 He was thinking about what Zack said "My mother told me. Before she | |
239 died, she said that she been having a repeating dream. "There's this | |
240 woman with long pink hair standing next to my mother tell her that | |
241 her son will have one of the seven Dark Rainbow Crystals, but only | |
242 Princess Saturn could have it." | |
243 The Queen walked over to him and hugs him from behind. | |
244 "Honey, what's wrong?" | |
245 "Trista didn't the time gate act up about four days ago?" he asked. | |
246 "Yes, it did but what dose…." Then it donned on her, that it was the | |
247 same time that they found out about the crystals. | |
248 "My King, are you saying that the crystals may have come though the | |
249 gate?" | |
250 "Yes," then turning around, smiled at his wife, and then looked at | |
251 Hotaru. The Queen followed his gaze, then it hit her, she knew what | |
252 her husband was thinking. He looked back at his wife, and nodded. | |
253 Hotaru could feel that they were looking at her. | |
254 "Hotaru, when did you start having the dreams?" asked The Queen. | |
255 Hotaru thought about it for a minute, "It was about four days | |
256 ago," she told them. | |
257 "For the gate to act up like that, there had to be more then a few | |
258 little things," Trista mentioned. Venus was thinking about Gaia, and | |
259 her daughter. | |
260 "May Queen," Venus said getting up, and waking to the door. | |
261 "Where are you going?" asked The Queen. Venus turns around "I met | |
262 this young lady, and her daughter." "I need to get back to them" as | |
263 she walked out of the room and closed the door behind them. | |
264 "What was that about?" asked Trista as she walks over to Hotaru. | |
265 "I don't know, why we don't call it good for now," the King said | |
266 setting back down in his chair. The other three just looked at one | |
267 another and smiled. Hotaru and Trista went to the kitchen to get | |
268 something to eat. As Venus walk to her daughter's room, she had this | |
269 bad feeling, but she couldn't put her finger on it. Venus put the | |
270 troubling thoughts out of her mind as she came down the hall. | |
271 "I have a feeling that you're right," said a woman in front of her. | |
272 "Oh, hello Michelle, so you also have a feeling that something is | |
273 not right?" | |
274 "I just got done talking to your new friend; she doesn't say much, | |
275 but I get this feeling that I knew her from some were, and I think | |
276 she knew what's going on." | |
277 "So, what do you think we should do?" | |
278 "I really don't knew, I really don't knew" | |
279 "That give me an idea," Venus though as she walk pass Neptune and | |
280 down the hall. | |
281 "Later!" | |
282 Michelle smiled and went to find the Queen. "Oh, I should ask Venus | |
283 were she is?" | |
284 She turned around, and yelled to Venus. | |
285 "Venus, where is the Queen?!" | |
286 Venus yelled back "She said she was going to speck to the Princess!" | |
287 "Thank you" | |
288 | |
289 "What was that all about momma?" asked Dainae. | |
290 "Nothing, anyway I was think, if it's alright with your mother, how | |
291 would you like to have a sleepover," suggested Venus. | |
292 The girls heard the word (sleepover) and began the pleading and | |
293 bargaining. | |
294 The look that they gave here mother was one of the really cute large | |
295 eyed looks only pretty little girl can pull off while still being | |
296 cute. Gaia rolled her eyes and thought that if she doesn't let them, | |
297 she'll never hear the end of it. So she just nodded her head. | |
298 The girls scream in excitement, ran back into Dainae's room. | |
299 "Thank you," Venus said bowing. | |
300 Gaia though for a moment, then walks into the room. "Sierra, I need | |
301 you to promise that you wouldn't do anything." | |
302 Sierra knew what her mother was talking about, for how much she | |
303 wanted too, she nodded to her mother saying she wouldn't. | |
304 "Thank you, sweetie" hung her and walked out of the room. | |
305 Dainae and Mina looked at one another. | |
306 "I think it's about time I left," | |
307 "Would you like to stay in one of the gusted rooms," offered Venus. | |
308 "Thank you for the offer, but I would feel much better at the | |
309 hotel." She said bowing and turning to Sierra. | |
310 "Sierra, all be back around one o'clock tomorrow" she said. | |
311 Her daughter just nodded her head and went back to playing the video | |
312 game. | |
313 "She'll be fine" Venus told her. Gaia just nodded. | |
314 | |
315 On the other side of the Places Serena and Rini were walking | |
316 around the gardens. | |
317 "How do you feel about what happen to Saturn?" Serena asked. | |
318 Rini had flashes of yesterday came running through her head. | |
319 ("What are you afraid of, it's not like you're in love with her?" "I | |
320 mean you have Helios, Do you really need her in your life?") | |
321 "Rini, is there something wrong?" | |
322 Her mother's intuition was screaming. Just the look in her | |
323 daughter's eyes gave her shivers. "Would you like to talk about it?" | |
324 "I won't judge what you say." | |
325 "A mother never wants to see her children unhappy." | |
326 "Your right about that my Queen," someone said. | |
327 They turned around seeing Michelle walking up. "I love the smell of | |
328 rain," she said. | |
329 "Hello Michelle, what brings you out here?" the Queen inquired. | |
330 "May I speak with you privately, my Queen? With a nod of her head, | |
331 she knew that the Queen had granted her permission to retire to the | |
332 bench off the path. It was recessed enough to provide the privacy | |
333 required to allow the pair to talk. Rini just looked on as the two | |
334 talked. | |
335 "I've been having this feeling to a person I met today, her name is | |
336 Gaia, she is new to this area and I feel like I've know her all my | |
337 life." "I think the feeling maybe due to the fact that Gaia has such | |
338 a strong resemblance to my own daughter. Needless to say, I feel a | |
339 connection to this woman and her child." Michelle told her. | |
340 The Queen had a strong inclination that his new figure held great | |
341 significance, but she was at a loss as to who this woman was. Her | |
342 head was reeling with questions about this Gaia person. Serena | |
343 couldn't help but wonder who this woman was and how she enters the | |
344 Kingdom without her knowing. She was perplexed. | |
345 | |
346 "My Queen, I know this must sound crazy. Before she could finish her | |
347 thought, a blood curdling scream pierced the serene garden. "That | |
348 sounds like Hotaru!" yelled Rini running toward the screaming. The | |
349 both mother run after her. |
