Kingdoms shall tremble, doom shall fall,

One pure heart shall stand, her life will change,

her life in danger,

One journey she will make, to capture the hope,

to capture the strength that will end

the Fear.

Fear for the girl,

Fear for the girl,

That will save us all.

Selena

"Mother, you seem sad, what is wrong?" Amos and Selisa stared at Ara, shocked by this observation. The queen smiled weakly at her daughter.

"Whatever do you mean? I am fine but a little tired." The servants agreed with the little girl. The queen had never been like this. Rumor was the sudden message had scared her. Jadoni had not had messages from other lands for so long, it was a shock to everyone. Ara stared at her mother doubtful of what her mother had just said.

"Mother, I've never seen you like this, please what is wrong?" The queen became silent and stopped eating. Then she pulled back her seat and stood up and left. When she was out of sight from her family she fled to the fields. The rumor was right, the queen was really scared and unsure. But everyone was scared, because if their queen was scared, it was very likely something to fear. Selisa ran until she came across a small grave bearing the below engraving.

"In remembrance of the lost princess, Selena. Bless her to find home." Then the queen crumbled her shoulders shook and tears streamed down her face. She remembered the day like it was yesterday. The birth of her first children. She had not known that they would be twins. First came Aura, moving as much as ever. But the nurse maid held her first child from her saying,

"Oh my, majesty another one. You have two lovely baby girls!" Selisa had been excited and flustered through names. Finally coming up with Selena. She had not thought that after only a few hours, she would never see Selena again. Amos had burst in and smiled at his two infants and tickled ones feet. He pointed at Selena as the lovely girl gurgled. Everyone laughed as the child blew bubbles and giggled squirming so wildly trying to get out of her lap.

When late at night the old nursemaid left for a break a new younger more mysterious nurse came in. Selisa caught the nurse staring at her Selena she would hold her tighter. Already noticing the bond the two had formed within minutes of meeting each other. When finally Selisa was so tired out she reluctantly gave up the twins to the patient young nurse. The nurse carried them away to the cradle. Selena had not had enough nursing so the young nurse nursed the girl and then the baby fell asleep in the nurses arms.

Selisa was shocked when the nurse came running into the queens chamber, crying and sad.

"Selena your daughter, she is dying." Selisa woke up as if ice had been thrown on her. The nurse handed Selena to Selisa who watched as her baby turned and writhed turning blue. And then the baby, tired of the pain suddenly stopped and never stirred again. Shocked and trembling Selisa cried over her baby. She did not notice the nurse slip the body of Selena out of her arms.

Then the queen remembered other sad memories but Selena's was the saddest of all. The old nurse maid was shocked to discover that the once so lively babe was dead. Then Selisa began to suspect that the young beautiful nurse maid might have taken her Selena. She then began to suspect that Ara, wasn't her true daughter. Then one day, she had found a parchment under her pillow. She opened it, and read the following.

"Dear Queen,

I'm sorry to have pulled such an act on you. Your other daughter Selena, is alive and well. Adventurous and well admired. The first time I laid my eyes on her I knew she would cause you much despair. She had that disposition for stubbornness and wandering. Instead I did the only thing that would not hurt you as the thoughts of not knowing your own child would. I was so sad when my baby had died a few days before.

But when I saw your Selena, I felt she was just like my Selena. She is a very dear girl, I have not told her the truth about the past. But before I die which I feel is not too long from now, I will tell the truth to Selena. I worry that she will hate me for not telling her sooner but I do not want her to go on an adventure before I die. I'm so sorry for the grief I have given you, but you can not imagine my happiness to have some company in my lonely life.

Sincerely,

A sorry mother

Selisa had been shocked and had never felt so much hate towards anyone. She hated the nurse for taking Selena to live away from her real family. But now she felt sorrow for herself. She would not know her own Selena when the time would come. When she finally was ready to return and face her daughter. She saw a dark figure swiftly move. She got up and watched the blackness. Under her breath she whispered,

"The darkness is coming." And walked back towards the castle feeling as if someone was watching her the whole time.

(What do you think? Its a little focus, but I had to introduce my story some way. Its just that I chose a very sad way to do it. Its not yet juicy. Wait til you meet Jake. The first few chapters are cheesy. So to save you some time, I wil advice that you go Chapter BBall. Thats when my story starts hinting that its jazzy! Enjoy!!!)
