Bloom, Daphne and Roxy had just arrived in the new realm which seemed familiar to Bloom as if she had been here before in her life. The place was in ruins like if some destructive force had come and destroyed what it once was, they made their way to the place that looked grander and spacious that the magix dimension, it was then that Bloom recognized the place as it was from her dreams.
"Bloom is something the matter?" Said Daphne who noticed her sister in shock and pale that was shaking.
"I'm fine I feel like I have been here before I know I have been here before" said Bloom who felt a rush of emotions and memories flood her mind images of how the realm once was a magnificent place the most wonderful and lively realm that seemed heavenly to her it seem the people still lived here but in villages and rags. They made their way through the villages, seeing the people and children look at them in curiosity and in wonder. Most of the adults were weary and suspicious of them, they looked at Daphne, Roxy with distrust on their faces but with hope in their eyes at Bloom. Soon they were brought to the high priestess and elder of the villages. The priestess smiled lightly at them, while the elder looked delighted to see them as if they had been expecting them.
"My name is Daphne this is my little sister Bloom, and our friend Roxy" said Daphne who smiled and held out her hand to shake the priestess and the elder's hand.
"It is nice to meet you all My name is Kitty Ana the high priestess of the villages and this is Tristan the elder and last of the guardians of the imperial royal family and goddesses and gods." said Kitty Ana who looked at them with wisdom and knowledge in her eyes.
"It is nice to meet you all My name is Kitty Ana the high priestess of the villages and this is Tristan the elder and last of the guardians of the imperial royal family and goddess and gods." said Kitty Ana who looked at them with wisdom and knowledge in her eyes.
"We came to train and to relax as well as get away for a while." said Bloom who walked gracefully over to them.
The priestess looked at Bloom observing her she gasped and immediately kneeled before her, Tristan looked at Kitty Ana wondering why she was kneeling before her, then he realized why when he looked closely at the necklace she wore, at her more closely too and did the same as well. Daphne and Roxy simply stood their wondering they were kneeling before Bloom.
"Why are you kneeling at Bloom?" said Roxy who was curious and looked on in amazement.
"Do you not know who she is, she is the Imperial Queen and Goddess of the Milky Way, stars and world's combined." said Kitty Ana with pride and happiness on her face.
"She is also the Queen of the shadows and empress of the night." Said Tristan who was also looking with pride but sadness in his eyes as he knew of what was to come but could not tell them.
"Are you saying that my little sister is a goddess, imperial empress as well as Queen of the realms?" Said Daphne who was trying to process all this and was in shock as was Roxy.
"Yes that is exactly what I'm saying you and she isn't your sister at least not by blood, you see the legend is that the Crown princesses and goddesses would come and visit the realms the older sister whose name was crown Princess Nina would come with her younger sister to visit realms they would stay at the old Palace and blend in with us humans so no one really knows what they look like in their true forms except for their closest friends and family.
They would have parties, grand balls where everyone was invited to them to have fun and socialize those were called the times of peace until something terrible happened a war broke out between the goddesses, gods and an evil being who wanted one of the goddesses, no one knows who was the goddess he wanted to have as his own. You see their was a fight and the crown princess Nina was gravely injured in the fight while she was protecting her younger sister and the people, however their are only two ways a goddess can die one is to give their life force into an attack and the other is too sacrifice themselves and their powers to the next kin in line to the throne. The princess died protecting who she loved most her little sister, the people and family, it isn't known if she had a lover some suspected she did but none know for sure, the younger of two would still visit the realms, but she wasn't the same as she had been only with her closest friends and companions are the crown princes and crown princesses, Kianu, Zack, Pips, Lia, Aliana, and Kisara they went with her everywhere she went and made life fun and interesting for her. To this day no one knows the Crown princess's name for it has been lost to time and this realm." said Kitty Ana noticed Bloom leaving and walking towards the palace.
Bloom had walked to the palace to go after her pet rabbit Keiko who had apparently decided to sneak into her backpack and now ran to the palace. The palace was old the entrance had been block by wooden boards yet somehow Keiko manage to get through them and was now inside, she pulled ** the wooden boards and fell backwards then got up to walk through the palace and find Keiko. Bloom looked around it was big and beautiful although dirty and dusty like it hadn't been clean in centuries she called out to Keiko but only heard him make noises, she wondered halls and stumbled a table full of fine expensive glass wear and other utensils she noticed a small mirror she blew on it and saw an image of herself younger no more then 8 years old being twirled around by a man who she was calling father and was laughing with him and having the times of their lives together. She walked some more and soon found herself in front of a door to a room she opened it and looked around it was gorgeous with gold and red as the color and designs as well as the bed, curtains and floor. She looked at the mirror and suddenly memories of herself looking no more than 14 years with an older woman who was no more than 19 or 20 years old she looked almost exactly like Daphne except she had golden streaks in her hair a lighter shade of red that fell to the ground, with her green eyes that had tints of gold in them, with creamy skin wearing a long flowing green dress and brown silk shoes. She was dressed with a beautiful sapphire necklace, rings and bracelets with a sapphire crown jewel crown, she smiled at Bloom and hugged her, was teasing her about her love for Rasler telling her that she will always love her and be their for her when she needs her she gave her the ring that she wore on her ring finger now. She remembered that the woman was her elder sister the Crown princess and goddess Nina who she loved and was the closest to her and enjoyed their adventures together with that images faded and all her memories had come back of her sister and of all her fighting styles, powers, techniques and summoning she had to sit on the bed for a few minutes to process and sort her memories, with that she left the room in search once more of her missing rabbit Keiko.
Bloom made her way down the hall to a grand throne room and ball room it had been where she, her family and friends would enjoy an evening of laughter and dancing, there are more ball rooms here but this was her and sister's favorite. She saw gorgeous tapestries across the room hanging against the wall and a grand chandelier she looked at the thrones that had been her mother's, father's, sister's and of course hers' they were dusty and dirty. She started seeing images of her life coming back to her remembering how her father had taught her how to use a bow and an arrow as well as her blades and daggers, her mother had taught her politics, etiquettes, grace, manners, her powers to control them and go beyond her limits to points where she or anyone else in the family as well as the others could go even her farther than them, her father had taught her how to use the part that comes from his family.
Her aunt had taught her music, seductiveness, singing, acting, masking her emotions, she remembered when she first met Kianu, Zack, Pip, Lia, Aliana, Kisara who are descendants from the gods themselves but sadly she is the only goddess left as the others were destroyed or had given their lives in the battle that had taken place. She remembered how her sister and her would go explore the other realms by blending in with others so as to not raise suspicion, cause some mischief but always found a way to make up for it, they were inseparable and were the closest like best friends. She remembered her first love Rasler the high prince of Neverland he was 20 and she was 17, he had dirty brown hair and brown eyes his smiles were full of life and adventure for them, he was an artistic man always drawing or painting her or her sister if not then the places he would go with her to see, the oceans and lakes
They would always sneak away on horses or she would use her wings to fly them to their secret places and different cities, as well as dance together, practice dueling each other in swords, other weapons. They completed each other, souls bonded to each other they were engaged and soon married but didn't last to long for he was killed in battle protecting his country and father who was assonated that same day, she mourned him and grieved for months, she had buried him in their special meeting place and placed the same flower she had in the box that had been given to her the night of the ball it had been her favorite of all the flowers she had, still is to this day she loves him and the flowers she always made sure to have more whenever she visited him. She made a mental note to visit him once the 6 months was over to stay two months but would go to visit the other realms to check up on things. She remembered how her how her sister was killed in front of her after she unleashed her ultimate attack on the enemy she saw the being he looked like the man in her dreams except his eyes were gold with tints of red in them.
Bloom was about to sing a song while in the throne room and ball room as her memories returned to her not fully restored because a few of them were hazy and misty she didn't noticed that Keiko was watching her sing and started to glide through the room she sang,
Dancing bears
Painted wings
Things I almost remember
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses dance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses prance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory
Far away long ago
Glowing dim as an ember
Things my heart used to know
Things it yearns to remember
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December
It was then that Bloom glowed becoming her true self who she really is not only now but before seeing as now was only part of her personality, as she twirled around her clothing and hair had changed dramatically. She wore a beautiful Golden colored dress with a blue sash on it with her family's symbol and crest as well as the necklace she had on glowed changing to a diamond necklace, with Diamond earrings she is wearing a silver crown with small diamonds and sapphires adorning it on her head, her shoes were golden her make up was light and a touch of lip stick rosy pink. Her hair which now had silver streaks in them just like before and her hair reached almost the floor was pulled back into long ponytail while the crown showed her beautiful hair and her authority. She remembered that she was the goddess and second crown princess younger sister to Crown princess Nina, second daughter to Selena Goddess of the stars and the cosmos, queen of the moon and Philip god of the sun and king of Dalmasca, the Milky Way, universe and the realms including the magic dimension, the girls, specialists home worlds. She is also the Queen and Empress of her Aunt Empress Serena lunar goddess of life, rebirth, destruction, creation and death as well as Queen of Asterria's realm since her she abdicated the throne to her naming her the sole heir and ruler of the realm. Her elder sister would have taken her father's throne while she inherited her mother's and aunt's due to being the youngest but her sister didn't mind, her sister died before she could ascend the throne at 23 years old thus leaving it to her.
She could not inherit both her mother's and father's throne until she is 26 years old so she is still considered the crown princess since that is the rule made by her parents and the imperial court. She is also the Queen of the shadows and the night as well as princess of her love Rasler's world Neverland all in all she is an imperial goddess, Queen and empress of everything, her word is law and her advisors are her best friends as well now include Roxy, Layla, Helia, Nabu Daphne, Her parents, Roxy's parents and Ms. Faragonda. She is now her true self and her name is no longer Bloom it is the Goddess, Imperial Empress and Queen Leila Yasmina Crests, for those who still call her Bloom as the ones from Domino, Gardenia, Alfea, and her friends and family that's it to everyone else they will call her Laila or address her by her status and rank.
Bloom had stopped glowing and now opened her eyes to see Keiko, Roxy, Kitty Ana, Tristan, and her sister Daphne who she didn't know if she could call her sister anymore considering most of her memories were restored to her they looked at her while everything around them was restored to its former glory and how it once was from the inside out. They followed Bloom closely as she went gracefully in front of the palace outside and restored the realm to it's original appearance, the villages looked more sophisticated the people were dressed in shirts, blouses, dresses, t shirts, had weapons and advance technology that would put Zenith to shame. The children were no longer dressed in rags but in kids clothing and had toys from earth, some things from magix, she saw the people's smiling faces, as well as the children as everything did really look more heavenly like a paradise.
Kitty Ana looked at herself and noticed she was wearing a gold and silver colored dress with the crests of her family on it signifying that she was her priestess and Tristan was dressed in a green and gold color tunic with the same design as Kitty Ana's and other shades of purple and red on it his pants were cotton black with a royal blue crest of her family as well he was wearing as sash across his chest signifying him as her guardian and protector of this realm. Both noticed that they were young again no longer looking 60 but now in there 20's looking younger than before and are now immortal as were the people. Bloom could feel her friend's shock and amazement as well as her sister's sadness because she felt that she would lose her as well as mom and dad who would miss her and friends, adoptive parents.
"To answer some of your questions Daphne you are and always will be my older sister considering you are a descendant of my family as are mom and dad due to my aunt's side who had given me her powers in order to become your ancestor but you are not immortal neither is mom or dad she manage to keep some of her powers to become a very powerful fairy which I'm glad she did because then I wouldn't have been able to meet my other part of my family and made some new friends. I will offer you, our parents, my adoptive parents, as well as Roxy, your parents even your dog, as well as Flora, Layla, Nabu and Helia, even Ms, Faragonda if she wants too be all of you will become immortals if you should choose to be let me know discuss it and think about it and I will ask you if you have made your choice." Said Bloom who looked at them with her Blue eyes that was only to Blend in with people. Secondly I am exactly as Kitty Ana and Tristan says who I am although my memory is not fully restored I remember everything of my life and past as well as some memories which are hazy and misty my true name is Laila Yasmina Crests but to you guys I will always be called Bloom and will let you continue to call me Bloom everyone else will address me by my title or rank even status.
"Laila; I mean Bloom what are you going to do now are you going to stay with us here in this realm or go to the other realms and restore them to their former glory?" Said Roxy who was happy, confused and in shock at what she had learned today and had been told by Bloom herself.
"I have decided to stay in this realm with you both until the six months are over then I will go to the other realms to restore them as well as to see my friends from their and go visit someone very special to me, you guys can go back to Domino I will return in two months only tell what you have learned today to friends and family I don't want those traitors to know anything otherwise I will personally deal with them but this time I wont fight them some very special people to me. I know you guys are wondering what is this realm's name as well as the world, the realm is called Spira and the world is called Nabudis. Everyone lets get to work, for those who wish to become priestesses, guardians, commanders, generals, lieutenants, captains please come forward young men, teenagers, young girls, some woman came up and telling her what they would like to be and do." Said Bloom who spoke with authority in her voice but smiled a lovely smile on her face.
With that she assigned Tristan to teach those who wanted to learn and have knowledge to train them to be the best and skillful fighters and warriors she knew he would need some help so she summoned the following people to train and help them they were Squall better known as Leon, Cloud, Tidus, Yuffie, Tifa, Kain and Lightning to help train them in blades, gun blades, knives, daggers, ninjutsu, hand to hand fighting, etc granted they wouldn't be on her level but they would be better then the magix dimension, she would do the same for the other realms but she had a feeling it wouldn't be as much as here and her beloved's realm.
In order to help Kitty Ana she summoned, Yuna, Arieth, Rinoa, Serah, and Katy to train the girls who wished to become priestesses and healers or other things come forward with that they did and she even had scientist and mechanics like Cid, Ken, Rikku, Paine, Ojiro, Hope and Evan to make this Place look more high tech then Zenith but more beautiful everything would be underground hidden from sight except for a few hover boards, motorcycles', etc. She saw everyone get to work and was proud as well as happy to see the look on the people's faces as they were eager to learn, train, get educated as well as make her proud some of them offered to be servants at the palace and guards to maintain the place while she is gone, she accepted them after seeing how badly they wanted to do it.
It was a long and tiring six months due to Bloom, Daphne, Roxy, training in their powers though Bloom didn't need to she still figured she might as well when they were not training Bloom would take them to her favorite places in the realm as well as her friends and sister, it was in those moments that they saw Bloom differently not like the Bloom they knew but that of Laila, but they knew she is both of the same person. Bloom got to spend some alone time with Daphne while Roxy went to tell stories to the children who were no in school as she is one of the teachers seeing as Bloom wanted them educated in Music, fun, plants, history, math and art as well as other things. Daphne would also go and teach the children things as well as make things with her magic and give them to the children as gifts, once everything was completed Bloom told the people she had summoned to go to the other realms, worlds and do the same as they had done here no questions were asked, with that she left to get ready for tonight was her.
Daphne and Roxy's last night here because the six months were over she wanted to take them to one place she hadn't showed them it was her private Oasis whenever she wanted to relax or think she would go to the hot springs to let it out but if you seem to the bottom you reach a hidden whirlpool you swim up and your in a beautiful crystal cave, she had taken Rasler there as that was were they had their first kiss. Bloom smiled at that memory and hadn't realized that it was time for her to go meet her sister and friend she took her towel, a picnic basket of foods, drinks, desserts and went off to meet them outside the palace. They left a walked off past the former villages now cities and alleyways further than she had ever taken them.
"Bloom where are you taking us we are far away from the palace and the people?" Said Roxy who was starting to get nervous because it was far away and quiet all she heard were the birds, and saw the fireflies it was then that she heard a rush of water instantly she knew it was a waterfall. Daphne was curious as to where her little sister was taking her but knew she shouldn't ask her for that would ruin the surprise.
"Ok what you both are about to see is something nobody in this realm knows about and is off limits to the people this is my private Oasis where I come to be alone and think as well as it holds some very special memories for me. Now close your eyes and walk forward when I tell you to open them you will open them." Said Bloom who smiled and moved away to set up the food and picnic as well as make sure the water was nice and hot but soothing ,calming to the soul, body and mind. Once making sure everything was perfect and in order she looked at them knowing they were going to like it.
"Ok you guys can open your eyes now" said Bloom who was standing their, with a big smile on her face as she made her way over to the water to take a dip and relax. Daphne and Roxy were in shock for this was the most beautiful place they had ever seen and been to. It was really cozy, calm, and very heavenly; it was like being in a fantasy only now real.
"Bloom its beautiful thank you for sharing this with us now I know why you told us to bring towels with us." Said Daphne who went up to Bloom and hugged her then pulled back smiling giving her a kiss on the cheek.
"Bloom is this a hot spring? I have never been to a hot spring before I have heard of them and seen them on T.V. but never been to one I think this outshines them on earth." said Roxy who looked in a amazement and decided to take a dip in the water she signed as the water felt so good.
"Yes this one of many Oases' I own but this is one of my favorite places to be at in times of thinking and when I want to be alone for a while I just come here to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet as well as the scenery. I wanted to make our last night here together in this realm memorable so I figure a picnic and nice place would be perfect" said Bloom who was very relaxed who's eyes were now closed with a peaceful smile on her face.
The night was filled with laughter, happiness, talking the girls ate the food and desserts with pleasure with some Coke Cola bottles that Bloom had brought and kept them cold all day ready for tonight. They had dried themselves and cleaned up heading back to the palace to their rooms and fell asleep so that tomorrow they would go back to Domino and Bloom would go as well and comeback to Domino in two months after she checked and restored the realms and worlds back to their glory. It was going to be a long explanation to everyone except the traitors they wondered how everyone would react to Bloom being a goddess and empress, as well as Queen even saying Bloom's real name would come as a shock to them. It was now morning in Nabudis everyone packed their clothing and went downstairs sat and ate breakfast together talking and laughing while very happy to go home.
Roxy had begun courting one of her new guards who was made captain of unit one, his name was Jake he was tall, built, had black hair with brown eyes, he was only two inches taller then her he was very kind, generous, patient, passionate liked to play the flute and help the animals when they were sick. He is also a fine swordsman but it more skilled with daggers then a sword, Roxy was sad to be leaving him but what she didn't know is that he was going with them to Domino until Bloom returned then she would take him back to Nabudis. Daphne also met someone his name was Seth one of her commanders and guardians he was Daphne's height had blonde spiky hair with blue eyes is very muscular, a great strategist and swordsman especially fond of his new gun blade and his sword Iceberg that can manipulate ice and attack at will or on enemies.
He would be going as well to Domino and leave the same time as Jake so better to enjoy the time they spent with their girlfriends and train together as well as meet their parents, make new friends with the people their, with that they all met outside to go and that's when both Roxy and Daphne noticed Jake and Seth walking towards them with some clothing and other things.
"Seth, Jake why are you here? Is it to say good bye?" Said Daphne who looked confused but curious as did Roxy who was the same as her.
"Well you didn't just think you were going to leave us behind did you, were going with you guys until her majesty returns to your realm to bring us back her." Said Seth who gave Daphne a charming smile as did Jake who did the same accept giving Roxy his dazzling smile that made her melt.
"Well now that everyone is here we can go Daphne, Roxy I trust you guys will enjoy your time with Seth and Jake as well as please look after them so that no trouble arises also if the traitors should come and start something with them they have my permission to not hesitate in putting them in their place but not to kill them, also send my love to everyone except those traitors I will see you in two months time." said Bloom who smiled and hugged them both as well as her men with that they were gone in a flash as was she now traveling the realms.
