Fern, one of the guards responsible for the young prince, stood outside of his majesties room.
The young, two-year-old boy had been crying his heart out for the last ten minutes, so Fern had sent his fellow guard, Ivy to fetch the princess, in hopes that she may be able to cease his crying.
Of course, how she would was a complete mystery, considering the fact that the twelve-year-old girl couldn't even perform any form of magic, and she refused to speak, (or she couldn't, she may be mute) no matter what, not even to herself.
The princess was the strangest, and most…unique that the Butterfly family had ever had, with her oddly coloured eyes and hair, even for a Butterfly, as well as her personality.
Most of the previous queens of Mewni had at least been able to stand the sight of their own mother. The Princess barely even addressed either of her parents when she was near them.
It may have been that both of her parents had left the young princess to the castle guards when they had been at war almost ninety percent of her life.
"Princess Darcy Butterfly of Mewni, we require your assistance in a problem with the young prince," Fern told her and the girl just stared at him with her orange eyes, as if she had not heard a thing that he had said.
Slowly, but surely, she nodded her head carefully, as if she was afraid of her own brother. Fern sighed, thankful that the girl was at least complying with him.
The older man looked over at his younger companion, who nodded at him. The guard slowly opened the door, revealing the reason that they had summoned the princess in the first place.
Inside of the room, the young prince Thomas Butterfly, who was crying his little hear out, was lying in his royal crib.
Darcy looked up at Fern, who gave her the royal salute, before shutting the door behind her, almost completely.
Darcy walked up to the crib, staring at the young boy with blond hair and yellow eyes. She gently reached in to the crib, picking up her little brother and cradling him in her arms.
The young princess was completely unaware of the two guards waiting outside, listening and watching in on every little thing that she did.
Both guard's eyes widened when they heard a strange voice echoing in the room. It was beautiful, and seemed to feminine.
"Shh, little brother, I will sing for you…..
Hear my voice beneath the sea,
Sleeping now so peacefully,
At the bottom of the sea,
Sleep for all eternity,
Sailors live so restlessly,
Come with me,
sleep peacefully,
Listen to this siren's song,
Worry not for nothing's wrong,
Let my voice lead you,
this way I will not lead you,
astray,
Trust me as we reach the side,
Jumping out where men have died,
Hear my voice beneath the sea,
Sleeping now so peacefully,
At the bottom of the sea,
Sleep for all eternity,
Let the ocean fill your lungs,
Struggle not, soon peace will come,
Taking in your final breath,
Sink down to the ocean's depths,
"I wish I could always be,
In the ocean's arms, you see,"
He who'd wanted nothing more,
Sleeps now at the ocean floor,
Ocean was your lover's name,
You had loved her all the same,
Now you'll always be together,
Sirens are so very clever,
Hear my voice beneath the sea,
Sleeping now so peacefully,
At the bottom of the sea,
Sleep for all eternity,"
Fern and Ivy almost panicked, hearing a song that was not meant to sooth children, but one meant to lead them to their deaths.
It took them quite a little while to realize that it was the princess singing. She had a beautiful voice, but yet, none of them had ever heard the young princesses voice before. Not even her own music teacher.
Fern and Ivy peered in to the room, watching as several objects floated around the two and twelve-year-olds. It took them another couple of minutes to realize that this was not her brother's magic, as it wasn't blue, but the young princess's.
The magic was a very bright green, like lime colour.
Fern and Ivy rushed into the room, Ivy taking several photos for evidence.
"Your majesty! Watch out for that magic! It may hurt you, it isn't the good kind, please stop right where you are!" Fern shouted to the young princess, who just about jumped three feet in the air at his surprising voice.
Ivy put her camera away and snatched Thomas out of Darcy's arms, whilst Fern grabbed Darcy, holding her against him in a way that prevented her from breaking free.
Ivy gently put Thomas back into his crib, before following Fern and the frightened and confused princess out of the room.
"Ivy, contact Queen Star immediately, she will want to hear of this….incident," Ivy nodded at her companion, before running out to contact the queen.
"Look princess, this may or may not be very confusing for you, but understand that that kind of magic that you have showed to be able to use, is the kind that almost destroyed this dimension years before your birth and is deadly for us all, it hasn't been seen since that day…"
Darcy looked up at Fern, her eyes full of understanding. She nodded, this time quick and without any worry.
"FERN! Queen Star says that she will be arriving back home in Mewni in a few days, with luck."
Fern turned around to see Ivy, who was running towards him with a loopy smile on her face.
"May I see the prince again?"
Fern and Ivy turned around to face Darcy, who looked amazingly cute, with a small smile upon her face, trying to get them to let her see her younger brother again.
"I don't know your majesty, that is up to your mother, you will have to see her about it….."
Darcy took a deep breath in, the young princess sighing. She knew that this would be the answer that she got.
so, who do you think Darcy's other parents is?
