Prologue
What Pissed Me Off
"Sometimes, in extreme beauty, sinful things hide. They lure you in, use your weakness to their advantage, and hurt you. Beauty can be deceptive."
At least that's what everyone told me, but I never believed them. Whether because I didn't understand the full capacity of their words, or just because I couldn't bring myself to believe that something so beautiful could truly be so destructive.
There was a time, when our village was peaceful. Beautiful, you could even call it. But I guess that was the ironic thing about it. Everything was in order, and everything had its place. And because of that order, we were luckier than most of our neighbouring countries. All lived as one, despite many differences.
This peace was supported by our pillar, Queen Serenity. She always watched over and protected us. The pillar was the one thing you could always rely on to be there for you. Or so everyone told me.
But I always knew, that along with the pillar, we had a different ruler. A ruler of evil and darkness. Prince Diamond. His strength came from the 'Heavenly Gates.' The Heavenly Gates are a passage, guarded by the elite. A passage into darkness, into which only those deemed worthy could enter. Those who do end up making it through the passage, end up holding extreme power, that if unleashed, could determine the fate or not only our world, but of the whole galaxy. That is why the Gates must always be protected. To monitor who goes in, and to make sure that none come out.
It was that darkness which welcomed me when the light wouldn't. It was Prince Diamond, the darkest light, which showed me salvation, when Queen Serenity, the darkest brightness abandoned me.
And yet, I could always see that the darkness wanted to be with the light. Even if it could destroy both of them. I didn't understand those feelings, for all I was was just a servant repaying my gratitude. An empty shell deprived of emotion. And yet this foreign yet curious feeling enticed me, urging me to feel the light, as I have before.
It was a longing, a yearning for the light and for those contained within it. And that's exactly what pissed me off.
Hey guise! ;P
This is my first time uploading a fanfiction and I know that this chapter didn't really make anything clear and it might be a little confusing, but don't worry! I promise that the next chapters are gonna make more sense.
I'd really appreciate your reviews, good or bad, to see what you liked and didn't. Or just anything really.
Please look forward to the next chapter. I'll try and upload it really soon!
~See ya ;P
