A Prayer-Prologue
None of this belongs to me . . . . . Hmmm . . I was just thinking . . .I need a muse, so I can write more than just fanfiction . . .anyone have one I can borrow???
*~*~*~*~*
Harry stifled a yawn and continued to scribble down notes that meant nothing to him. History of Magic was one of his worst classes, though it was nothing to compare to Defense Against the Dark Arts. Ron had his chin propped up on his elbows, and looked like his mind had left the room ages ago. Even Hermione looked bored. How long is this going to go on! Harry thought to himself. It seems as though time has stopped!
"Now, get out a new roll of parchment." Professor Binns droned on. " The title of this Chapter is "The Kingdom on the Moon".
Harry looked up. Did he just say "Kingdom on the Moon"??? Ron's mind seemed to have found it's way back, and now all the class was listening, for the first time since they were first years in their first History of Magic class.
Professor Binns looked quite startled at the students. They were actually listening! Well, he'd better make the best of it then . . ..
"Yes, that's right. There is a legend about a Princess that lived on Earth's Moon. A very long time ago, about 1000 years, there was a society that lived on the Moon. It was ruled by Queen Serenity, who was said to be very beautiful. But there was also an evil Queen, Queen Beryl. Her minions attacked the Moon Kingdom, and destroyed it. With the remnants of her strength, Queen Serenity used a very powerful magic, the magic of the Imperium Silver Crystal, and sent the children of the Moon to Earth, to be reborn in the future. She sent her guardians, who were said to be two cats, to Earth also, to find the children of the Moon and restore their memories. And then, Queen Serenity died."
The class was awestruck. Pavarti (AN: I don't think that's right) looked like she was going to cry. That was the best story they had ever heard. But Binns wasn't done yet:
"They're a romantic side to the story too!" he chimed, starting to sound more dramatic than his usually boring self. "Serenity's daughter was in love with a Prince from Earth. When the evil Queen attacked, the Prince of Earth tried to protect the Princess. However they both died. Serenity managed to save their spirits, and sent them to earth." Binns sighed, and took off his non-existent glasses. "Dear me, look at the time. Off to your next class, then. Next class we will talk about the planet's Princesses." The class wandered out the door.
Hermione clutched her books and sighed. "That was a very interesting story! And so romantic . . ." Ron looked about ready to smack her. "That's all a load of rubbish." Harry laughed, but he couldn't help but think that, maybe, a long time ago, their could've been a society on the Moon.
*~*~*~*
Harry couldn't sleep that night. He hadn't got much sleep at all since he had started school. He was always thinking at night. About his parents, about Sirius, about . . .Voldemort. He tried to blank out his mind. But he couldn't. Voldemort was preparing for his next attack. He was more powerful than ever. Harry had a thought that he couldn't displace. It was snaking around his mind, a drill a hole in his skull. What if he couldn't defeat Voldemort? What if the whole wizarding world couldn't defeat him?
One thing was clear: they needed help. But who? Dumbledore had sent owl to everyone he could think of, warning them of the danger. But was it enough?
Harry sighed and squeezed his eyes shut. Suddenly a thought sprang into his mind: If all the magic in the world couldn't defeat Voldemort . . could magic out of this world help?
Please! his mind cried. Help us! He will kill us if he gets too powerful! He will kill everyone! You must help us!
Now, he could only hope that some divine ear had heard it. He drifted of into a black, dreamless sleep.
*~*~*~*
Rei sat gazing at the fire in front of her. Nothing yet. Would she get a vision tonight? Perhaps. When she did get visions, they were very interesting and helpful. She almost looked forward to them.
A whooshing sound filled her ear. Maybe the window was open. She opened her eyes, but instead of the sight of the temple, she saw nothing it was like she hadn't opened her eyes at all! But, in the distance, she say a small green light. It was coming closer. Rei stayed calm, and waited until the light had reached her.
Suddenly, a boy appeared, and the light appeared to be coming from a lightning shaped scar on his forehead.
Rei looked the boy over. He had messy black hair, glasses, and he looked to be about 15. He looked Rei over, and opened his mouth to speak.
"Please!" he cried desperately. "Help us! He will kill us if he gets to powerful! He will kill everyone! Please . . .you must help us . . . " and he faded just as quickly as he had appeared. The darkness disappeared, and Rei was once again greeted with the sight of the fire blazing in front of her.
