How Ever Did We Fall In Love? - Trista and Maverick - By SMA/CMA

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Rated: PG-13 (maybe)

Summary: Trista was deemed the new time guardian after her birth. Many

years were spent in isolation because everyone was afraid what would

come out of her mouth, even her own parents. Millennia later, Trista

is still alone. But events will soon show she wasn't as lonely as

everyone thought.

AN: Welcome to Trista's story in the HEDWFIL series. As always, this

is an original piece by me. I recommend that you read Amy's story

first, otherwise, you may get lost. Well, enjoy!

Prologue

::::::::

*Somewhere above the Earth*

Lord Ruin paced back and forth down the length of his chamber.

If he wanted to conquer Pluto, he would have to act fast. He could

already feel Pluto's mate awakening and that was a bad sign. Morgana

needed to be his! Then maybe their dark plan could commence...

*Tokyo, Japan*

Trista leaned back and observed the scene at Amy's wedding

reception. Her and Hotaru had sewn their fingers to the bone to get

all of the dresses done in time. She had even spent some evenings at

the Time Gate to ensure that they would be done in time.

She walked away from the refreshment table and smoothed her

dress. Watching the dancers, she began to slightly sway with the

music. Amy and Robert made a beautiful couple; their looks accented

each other's features.

"May I have this dance?"

Trista looked and saw a man with red hair and violet eyes looking

at her. She nodded her head and followed him onto the dance floor.

She cleared her throat and said, "I'm Trista, one of Amy's friends.

Who are you?"

The man replied, "I'm Orion, an old classmate of Robert's."

Trista and Orion swayed to the time of the music and Trista felt

herself transported to another time. A time when she was in the arms

of another man...

"Alright everyone," a slightly drunk Mina said into a microphone,

"time to catch the bouquet and garter!"

The men huddled in a little group around a chair that had been

produced for the sake of this event. Amy sat down and Robert dropped

in front of her, sliding his hands up her dress in order to find the

garter belt. All of a sudden, a little piece of blue fabric was flung

into the air and a black-haired man caught it. Orion came back to

Trista and said, "He grabbed it from my hands."

Trista thought he was just sulking as she took her place among

the unmarried women already amassing a group around Amy's chair. Now

standing, Amy flung the bouquet over her shoulder. It grazed Raye's

fingers, hit the top of Mina's head, and came to a stop in Trista's

awaiting hands. The group gasped, then laughed. Everyone knew that

Trista didn't have a man in her life...

Trista just shook her head and bemoaned fate.
