Second Chance
Serenity woke up and brushed the sleep from her eyes, it had been so terribly long since the last war. Since she watched them all die in front of her very eyes. Tears streamed down her face as she walked to her balcony and looked over the kingdom. Slowly it was being restored to its original beauty but it will never be the same. The smiles the laughs all gone and shattered all that is left is this cold quiet palace and a few buildings. Her hand reaches up to her chest were she once proudly wore the silver crystal, more tears streamed down her face as she brushed them away. Her world has ended and all that is left to do is wait for it to die out. She retires down the stairs and into the ballroom hoping for some peace there. However, she lays down on the cool marble floor in the dark room and closes her eyes, feeling cold and alone.
The old clock chimed its lovely rhythm as it had so many years ago; it had not chimed since the silver millennium. PRINCESS! PRINCESS! Are you alright?! Serenity opens her eyes and sees all the party guests around her fallen form, Prince Darien at her side holding her head in his lap and her hand in his. "What happened? How did I return to the past?" "What do you mean my love?" Asked Darien concern for his love. "You, all of you were gone I was all alone in the crystal palace, in crystal Tokyo." Darien looks at his love more concern on his face now. "My dear Serenity there is no such place as Crystal Tokyo. You fell and hit your head it was only a dream." "A dream? No it couldn't be, I was there but now I am so young again, and this time, this place. I remember now the dark kingdom will attack here soon. We'll all parish and be reborn on Earth all but my mother Serenity." Queen Serenity walks over to her daughter. "You had a bad dream my dear; please take care of her Darien." Serenity returns to her party guests. So it was a bad dream, or it was a vision of the future. Only next time, Next time I'll change the outcome of our future. She closes her eyes feeling safe in her loves arms. The war between the dark kingdom came and went. Only this time, Serenity's loved ones survived and Crystal Tokyo flourished.
