Ele stood facing the sun. She always had enjoyed the vacations she and her family
spent on the planet, Tranquility. She smiled as her sister, Sery, blinked. Her sister hated the
sun.
Ele had lost her dad when her brother, Darien was born. Ele was the middle child.
Her older sister, Sery(21), was a pain, and Darien(14), the youngest, often was visiting his
theme parks else where.
Ele had been named after her mother, Queen Elegance. The queen was currently
ruling the Earth. Everyone thought she was crazy for doing such a thing. The Earth was
barren and cold, life just beginning to blossom into the truly formed beings, like on the rest
of the planets.
Ele was fifteen. She had shiny, black hair that went down past her shoulders by an
inch. She had a deep tan with aqua eyes that just sparkled with excitement over each new day.
She was only Five foot four inches. She was slim and fit, but not skinny.
"Ele!" Ele heard Sery's high voice screech.
"Yes?" Ele tiredly asked. Her sister was one of the few things that made her tired.
"I wanted my soda slightly dry, not without a single ice cube!" Sery complained.
"I am not your personal servant Sery. Go do it yourself," Ele sighed.
"Well, as long as we give the servants time off, you are," Sery ordered.
"I am going to tell mom. I will not be your personal slave any longer. I want to spend
time with Darien before he goes off for another day of theme parks again," Ele said as she
marched toward the central hall.
They currently were staying at the Palace De Grande. It was an elaborate hotel,
designed for royalty. Coated in leafs of gold, a royal balcony overlooked the mysterious black
lake. Textured white walls covered most of the inside and outside. Elaborate silk curtains
were the doors.
Yards of lace decorated all the windows. Plush, blue carpet was visible from wall to
wall. Columns of pure Mercurite stood regal. They were just barely supporting the upstairs.
Ele smiled. She loved going through the palace, looking through the hundred some rooms.
She soon entered the central hall. "Mommy?" Ele quietly called.
"Come in my dear princess," Ele heard her mother call.
She smiled. Her mom was in a good mood. She walked up to her mother sitting in
her chair. She looked so regal!
"Am I supposed to help serve Sery?" Ele asked as she bowed her head.
"Of course not dear child! What gave you that idea?" her mom asked, indigence in her
voice.
"Sery. She said I was supposed to," Ele cried.
"Well, now. Would you like a servant?" her mom asked.
"If it meant Sery would be my slave, no. I can't do what she does to me back to her,"
Ele said as she bowed out.
Ele danced around as she knew she would never serve Sery again. Ele smiled and
walked towards the stairs to her room. Just as she reached the stairs, a giant tremor shook
the palace. Ele raced back the the central hall.
"What's going on mommy?" Ele asked, worry etched in her voice.
"I'm not sure. Ele, go to the basement and lock the doors. Don't leave until someone
comes and gets you. If you see your brother, take him with you," Panic spoke in Ele's mother's
voice, "Sery and I will go and see what is going on."
Ele saw her brother. Fear was mirrored from his eyes to Ele's. She grabbed his wrist
and dragged him to the basement. She stopped as she came to a door. She opened it and
entered. She bolted it behind her and hoped for the best.
