Prolog: Destiny and Sacrifice

I own nothing!...well except for this stick! :3 First fanfic so please be gentle. I only own Prism and other characters that weren't in Zelda.

Wailing and groaning the young mother-to-be pushed with all her might.

"Harder milady, you must try harder!" The young maid pleaded with her mistress.

"It's no good Mary she's already lost too much blood." The nurse maid sighed sadly.

She herself had been at her birth of the maiden that lay before her and was saddened to be present at her untimely death as well. She stared down at the distressed visage of the queen.

Sweat glistened on her noble face. Deep brown eyes, filled with pain, were blood shot as she pushed harder. Rich dark brown hair lay matted upon her head and her crown lay off to the side forgotten. She gave a large cry and was echoed by her first child.

The young maid beamed, "a beautiful baby girl your highness."

However the older nurse was not as satisfied. "Keep pushing your near the end I'm sure of it!"

With her last ounce of strength she gave a final push and a second cry was heard.

Pacing a hole into the floor the ruler of the great kingdom of Celion was a nervous wreck.

"Sire I'm sure she'll be just fine, give her some time." The Kings most trusted advisor stated with earnest.

King Matthew's blue eye's glistened with unshed tears. Looking down sadly, they were covered by his long blond bangs as he gazed at the floor.

"It's been hours Alucio, and I can't stand to see her in so much pain."

Just as he had uttered these words, the door burst opened to reveal the nurse maid, Mary.

"She has given birth to twins Sire. Two healthy baby girls."

Smiling with relief he rushed into the room and immediately to the side of his wife.

"Seraphine dear, I'm so proud of y-…what's wrong?"

It took one look at Seraphine's pale face to learn that something was seriously wrong.

She held out the two girls in her arms. Gazing into her child's faces she was shocked to find they had already opened their eyes. She smiled weakly at her husband and then her first child.

"I shall call you crystal for you share the same crystal blue eyes of your father. Sharp, yet soft and they pierce the soul. She gazed at her second child and gasped.

From this child radiated a certain light and hope that she had never felt before. Despair immediately left leaving a satisfied feeling as she gazed into her second daughters chocolate brown eyes. The eyes they both shared. They seemed to reflect many emotions and revealed the kind gentle soul within.

"I shall call this one Prism for out of this soul radiates the colors and feelings that dwell within and reveal what is hidden." She smiled at her husband.

"I am satisfied with this dear, and this is all I need."

Matthew looked up with questioning eyes at the older maid who simply shook her head sadly, and gestured to all the bloodied rags. His eyes widened and he turned back to his wife squeezing her arm encouragingly.

"My love please don't say such things you…" his chocked voice was silenced by a finger to his lips.

Seraphine smiled weakly and held out her treasures. Matthew carefully picked each up and cradled them in the crook of his arms. Lowering herself gently she smiled at everyone in the room and her eyes rested finally on her children.

"Take care of them for me and may God bless them as he has blessed me. My lot in life has been bountiful and I pray that theirs, along with yours, is as well. I love and thank you all for all of your help."

With this she drifted to sleep. The maid laid the children next to her and left Matthew to watch over his wife. That night wailing was heard once again throughout the castle but not from the young mother who had been laid peacefully to sleep for eternity, a small smile gracing her lips. The children however were unaware of the sorrow and slept on through the night.
