THE DARK LEGEND

Dark Thoughts

(To begin with,I do not own the characters from The legend of Dragoon and I do not intend to make money by submitting this mere sample of ,it's been a week since I finished playing The legend of dragoon for the very first time. Another thing that I would like to add is that am not very good at descriptionsbut I am better at writing good scripts and ,if you don't bother try reaidng. This story reveals the emotional side of Rose before she became the Black Monster.)

(Narration of Rose)

"War...I guess it affects us all..Through battles...through tears...and countless death...Now I am the only one who's left to tell the tale...by bringing further death...By killing innocent children whose cruel fate chosed them to be the legendary Moonchildren..''

Rose was standing still,looking at the great sky of Ulara...

"What a contradictory scenery!A city full of life close to a desert full of and death...This never-ending circle..."

She was waiting for Charle to create the magic choker which would stop her time...

"Everyone shall hate me,for my purpose will never be understood by the ,why should they do so?I don't care either...because me world has already been destroyed.I won't age a day...I'll live thousands of lives without seeing a single wrinkle on my face...And I will live thousands of lives only to remember his tragic death...Zieg...my love
I would have gladly died by your side...This is the day I actually died,for my body shall remain only as a shadow on the world of the living...My body's just an empty vessel,my heart has been broken...The days of innocence are forever gone...So now's the time to cry or one last time,or laugh ironically for being a dark saviour of the world.''

And there she went crying, helpless and desperate as she was...Charle went close to her.

''Rosie,dear,are you ok? She asked her, but Rose was completely lost in her thoughts...

C:Rosie?

R:Yes,Charle! she said as she went back to reality.

C:I understand how you feel my sweet after all this agony you've been through. The long war has ended,yet the world is still in danger. If you don't do it,no one else will.

R:I know that Charle,I'm a fighter.I'll keep on killing until a miracle changes everything..

C:Dear,don't talk so sadly. You're the strongest woman in all Endiness. The fact that you are still alive proves that it is your fate. You shall remain in history and become a legend...

R: ...as a monster... she interrupted Charle.

C:As a saviour, the whole world depends on you.

Rose could not hold her tears anymore, but at the same time she did not want anyone to be around her.

R:''Please, Charle, leave me alone! Don't bother me unless the choker's ready.

C:''I understand,Rosie,but always remember one thing: Crying is not weakness. Charle left and Rose remained silent. The cool breeze was caressing her face,making her to stop crying. As she turned around,she saw a couple walking next to holding their babies. She was somehow jealous...

"If only Zieg was still alive..."she thought."...we might have lived a normal life...We would have been married by now...and then... No!Stop dreaming,Rose,that's just a hypothetical thought.I am here,all alone,and shall remain with empty hands. Even if I could go on and find another man to fall in love with, I will have to face the mortality of human nature once more. And then again...and again...I'll be alive to see my loved ones die due to the flow of time... No,I am not meant for having a new love...neither a family...This is why I 'll never forget you,Zieg...our love will last forever within my mind...And maybe one day we'll meet each other...like we do in my dreams...I guess I'm crazy by making all these kind of thoughts,but this may be the last time I do...Yes,the last time...No more wondering...No more thinking...All that remains is eternal solitude."

As she nodded her head, she saw the Winglies fly very high and singing magical words in their own language...Caron came close to her.

"It's time, choker's spell is about to be complete."

"Good."

"Isn't it the dream of every mortal to be blessed with immortality?"

"It is surely not my own dream."

"I'm impressed by your words, Rose. I'd never expect a single human to say such a thing."

"You underestimate humans too much. This is why you lost the war."

"If it wasn't for Charle,you might be killed for saying such nasty things."

"Fancy trying to battle me?"

"Let's settle this some other time. You shall proceed to wear the choker as well as your renewed headband."

"I'm going"she said in her cold tone.

Charle gathered the Winglies to watch the ceremony into which Rose will wear her magic choker. Then,she began speaking.

"This is not an ordinary day,my dear Winglies. Today,from this day a legend is born,a Dragoon who will save the world in times of difficulty. Thanks to her,we will be able to live in peace and harmony, knowing that our fate is safe and secure at the hands of this great woman.

"Isn't that a bit selfish?"Rose wondered while listening to Charle's speech.

"What if I fail? she continued thinking..."The answer is simple.I'll just stay alive only to face the end of the world. But not without fighting, not without trying until I'll be released from my bounds."

"Rosie, bow before me."Charle said.

She bowed to Charle, and wore her the magic choker. Suddenly her eyes turnt red and snapshots of the future moonchildren began to flow within her mind. However it did not last long in actual time.

"Do you feel it?The power of the magic choker?Charle asked Rose.

"Yes,I do"she replied.

As she looked upon the sky,Winglies ascending from high above brought her back her horn-like headress.

"It's completely new,and you''l be able to turn yourself completely into a black shadow, so your Dragoon form will not reveal your identity.

"Not that people from the future might know how a Dragoon looks like..."Rose thought.

Magic fireworks began sparkling in the sky,and Rose was looking at them.

"I am...the one who carries the fate of the world. I feel the power within me growing stronger every minute. I know I can do it. I don't want anyone else to carry this burden again. I will be strictly bound to my task. For the people, for hope, and for you, my love...

The celebration was interrupted. The Winglies started to panic.

"The moon...!!!!The moon turns red!!"

Charle calmed them down.

"Don't fear,my Winglies,we are safe in our well hidden city. Rose is the only one who can enter Ulara. She's leaving now to complete her task by killing the Moonchild that is being born. Now go,Rosie!!

Rose transformed into her dark Dragoon form and flew away to hunt for the Moonchild...
