"How much farther do we have left to go?" Serena shouted over the
roaring wind of the desert. No one answered her question. She guessed that
either it had not been heard or no one wanted to answer it. She hoped that
it was not the latter, though she could barely hear herself through the
thick cloth that covered her face. Serena knew that without this cloth she
would have choked, but even with it she could taste the gritty sand in her
mouth. The white robe Serena wore to protect her from the hot desert sun
felt dirty and musty.
Through the tiny eyeholes, She could faintly make out the image of the three other camels and their riders. Serena hurried her own camel to catch up with the others. She would hate to get lost in this desert storm. The other riders did not seem to notice that she had been lagging behind. It was getting harder to see with the sand flying everywhere.
They continued through, four insignificant riders in the vast spanse of desert. The leader of the riders sat proud atop his camel. The young prince, Endymion, rode with the confidence of someone who had ridden these plains his entire life. Following Endymion was two of his personal guards, Andrew and Greg. Finally, lagging behind was an odd addition to the group, a young girl. The girl, her blonde hair flapping in the wind was the most valuable part of the group; she was the reason for this journey.
(Flashback)
"There have been rumours of a girl with miraculous healing abilities," the advisor remarked, "supposedly she lives among a nomadic tribe."
The prince looked up sharply, "You think it could be her?"
"Well, perhaps, I cannot be sure. Shall I send someone?"
"No, I'll go. This is much too important to be put in the hands of anyone else. If indeed, she is the girl, I want to be the one to bring her back. Make the necessary preparations, we leave tomorrow."
* * *
Could she really be the one? Endymion thought, there have been so many false hopes. Could she be his soul mate? The one who was prophesied to cure his family from deep sleep in which they had fallen?
Long ago, a royal family lived in peace and joy. A family of loving parents and three rambunctious youngsters. Endymion loved his family, until one day, in a split second his life changed. An evil power driven man encased his family in an eternal sleep, leaving the young boy heart-broken and alone. He was alone, but not hopeless, there was a prophesy with told of a lost princess, who could heal his family, and mend his heart.
Endymion lay sleepless, tomorrow; he was going to set off to find this girl.
