The Princess of Crystal Tokyo
Part 3: Neo-Prince Helios of the Sun Kingdom
Sorry, I took so long to finish this part. For some strange reason, I didn't fell like writing during the summer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I can't believe I'm marry and to you." said Terra. She was in her room with her new husband, Helios. They were just married a couple months ago. The wedding was held at Clio's house. The only people there was basically them, Clio, Echo, Sol, and the minister, so they secret was safe.
"Why? You're the most beautiful girl I ever saw." said Helios.
"I'm not pretty."
"Yes, you are. I surprise you weren't taken."
"You're lying."
"No, I'm not. They in no one as beautiful as you."
"Whatever."
"No, it's true. Ask any guy in this city. They will give you the same answer."
"I get the point. So, what do you want to do?"
"Eat."
"Let see what we got."
"Okay."
They got up and ran to the kitchen. Terra went to the counter and took some eggs from a bowl.
"Eggs." she asked.
"Perfect." Helios replied.
Terra took out a pan and started to cook.
"So, what are you doing today?" she said.
"My father want me to do something with him." he replied.
"You don't want to do it, do you?"
"Not really."
"Why?"
"My father and I don't have the best relationship."
"Why?"
"We just don't."
"So, when I have our child..."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, when I have our child..."
"Do you mean, what I think you mean?"
"Maybe. It all depends. What you think it means?"
"You're having a child."
"I don't know for sure, but I going to the doctor today."
"I hope you are."
"Don't change the topic."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Terra was pregnant. Not with one child, but with twins. Helios Jr. and Daphne. Helios Jr. is very shy, and quiet. He looked like his great-great-great-grandfather, Neo-King Endymidion, but had the eye and hair color of his great-grandmother, Neo-Queen Trista.
Daphne is completely different than her brother. She was adventurous, outgoing, and love to laugh. She look like her great-grandmother, Neo-Queen Serenity (aka Rini), but her hair is red, and her eyes are blue, like her father.
Every minute he could, Helios saw his children. He loved them. He didn't have as much free time than he used to, but he always tried to see them at least once a week.
That was the least of his problems. Princess Aurora, the princess he was suppose to marry, was 18. Which means their wedding was coming up.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Daddy!" said Daphne.
"Hello, princess." said Helios.
"Guess what?"
"What?"
"Psyche came over because she promise me, and show me how to make cookies."
"Wow. I know what, why don't you make me a batch."
"Okay."
"Can you told me where mommy is?"
"With Helios in his room. He's in trouble, and I had nothing to do with it. Honest."
"I believe you."
"I not lying. I didn't know what he did. Mom just called him in when we were playing."
"I believe you."
"If you find out, can you tell me?"
"Maybe."
"I love you, daddy."
"I love you, too."
He kissed her on the forehead, and walked to his son's room. Terra and Helios Jr. were in there talking. He didn't look like he was in trouble.
"Hey, Daphne." he said.
"Hey, honey." Terra replied.
"Daphne said Helios was in trouble."
"No, I'm not." said Helios Jr.
"We're just talking about something." said Terra.
"About what?" said Helios.
"Nothing important."
"Daphne, I need to talk to you."
"Okay. Helios go play with Daphne and don't get in trouble."
"Okay, mommy." said Helios Jr. and he left.
"What do you want to talk about?"
"We have a problem." said Helios.
"What?"
"The whole problem that I'm suppose to get marry to Princess what her name, but I already marry to the most wonderful person in the whole universe."
"That's a problem, what are we going to do?"
"I don't know."
"Why can't we tell your father that we're married?"
"It not as easy as that."
"Why? He doesn't want you to marry the one you love?"
"Yes. He will do anything for a stupid treaty. Besides if I get marry to Aurora, I would became the ruler of the second most powerful kingdom in the universe."
"Just tell your father. If he loves you, he'll be happy for you."
"You don't know my father."
"But I do want to. I want our kids to know their grandfather."
"Okay. I will tell him, but you have to promise me one thing."
"What?"
"That you'll be by my side."
"Anything."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next week, Helios went to tell his father. As she promise, Terra was by Helios' side. Helios was afraid, and nervous. He didn't know how his father would react. It all depends in his mood. How his day was going. He hoped it was a good one.
"Father?" said Helios.
"Yes, Helios." said Neo-King Apollo, Helios' father. He was looking over some letters at his desk.
"I need to tell you something."
"Who's your friend?"
"This is Daphne."
"I thought you hated her."
"That was a long time ago."
"We are good friends, now." said Daphne.
"What do you want?" said Neo-King Apollo.
"I need to talk to you about the wedding." said Helios.
"What about it?"
"I can't marry Princess Aurora."
"What do you mean?" The king said in anger, "Does it have anything to do with her?"
"Yes, father. It does."
"What's so important about her? You throwing a chance to rule a great kingdom."
"I love Daphne."
"Love only bring heartbreak. You will be thanking me."
"No. I won't. Beside it will be against the law if I marry Aurora."
"What do you mean?"
"I married to Daphne."
"You are not."
"Yes, I am."
"I'm the king and I say you are not married to this girl."
"Father..."
"And Daphne, you will leave this kingdom and never return."
"If Daphne go, I go."
"No. You are going to stay in your room until you are married to Princess Aurora. Guards!"
Four guards came into the room. Two took Helios to his room and guarded him. And the other two took Terra to her home. She felt like a criminal, but she did nothing wrong. Just fell in love.
Terra packed a bag full of some of her clothes and her stuff. And a other bag full of her children things.
She told her kids that they are going on a trip and their father was too busy to come with them. The kids were happy.
The king told Terra that he would pay for her flight to where ever she wanted to go. She decided to go home, back to Crystal Tokyo.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Clio was watching the kids when Terra took them with her. She thought it was weird when Tera took them on a vacation just out of nowhere. Then, Sol told her what happened. Clio was mad. She marched right to the palace to see the king. For some reason, they let her go in.
"Apollo what did you do?" asked Clio in anger.
"Clio, what do you mean?" Neo-King Apollo replied.
"Why did you do that to Daphne?"
"What she did was wrong."
"Wrong. WRONG! What you did was wrong. Did you forget?"
"That was totally different."
"No, it wasn't."
"I listened to my father."
"Yeah, you did and my heart was never healed."
"It was different."
"You made a big mistake."
"How?"
"She was a princess."
"What? You don't mean?"
"Yes, I do."
"What have I done?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Mommy, why can't we leave the apartment?" said Daphne.
Terra found a small apartment a couple of days after they got there. There was two very small rooms in it. The front room was a living room/kitchen/dining room. In it was a table with 4 chairs, a oven with a gas stove, a sink, and a cabinet. The back room was the bedroom, and had a full size bed that almost took half of the room, and a dresser.
"Because." replied Terra. Right now, they're in the bedroom.
"It's boring here."
"I know, tomorrow I will go out and get you guys something."
"A book!" said Helios Jr.
"No, something fun." said Daphne.
"I would get something both of you will like." said Terra.
"Can you tell us a story?" asked Helios Jr.
"Okay. What me to tell you a story that my parents use to tell me?"
"Yes." They both said.
"Okay..."
Terra told them the story about the Moon Kingdom. They loved it. Every night, she told them another story about her family past.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Terra lived in the apartment for a month, and Daphne begged even more to leave it. Finally Terra caved in and let her buy bread. So ever week, Daphne went to the little store around the corner and brought bread. One day, when Daphne was walking home from the store she bumped into someone from her mother's past and she didn't know it.
"I'm sorry." said Daphne.
"It's okay," said a very old Neo-King Helios, Terra's grandfather, "Do I know you? You look like someone I know."
"I sure we never meet. My name is Daphne."
"Helios."
"That's my daddy's and brother's name."
"Weird."
"I need to get going or my mom would be mad."
"Okay. Bye."
"Bye."
Neo-King Helios watched as the little girl ran off, and he went back home, but for the rest of the day, he pondered why was the little girl so familiar to him.
"Helios are you listening to me?" said Rini.
"Sorry, but my mind is somewhere else right now." he replied.
"Can you tell me where?"
"I meet this little girl when I was walking around Crystal Tokyo today, and it seems I met her before, but I didn't."
"What does she look like?"
"To think about it, she looks like you when you were a child."
"That's impossible. What was her name?"
"Daphne. She said she had a brother, because she made a comment on my name."
"What was the comment?"
"That her brother and father had the same name as me."
"Weird."
"That exactly what I said. I think I'm around you too much."
"That's a good thing, right?"
"I won't have it any other way."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hello your majestic." said the owner of a very small store.
"Hello." said Neo-King Helios.
"What brings you to my little shop?"
"A question."
"What, your highness?"
"I met a little girl yesterday, and I'm wondering if you know where she lives."
"The little girl with red hair and blue eyes."
"Yes. Do you know where she lives?"
"I terribly sorry, but I don't."
"Thank you."
Neo-King Helios was about to leave, but the store keeper stopped him.
"But I do know that she comes the third day of the week at midday to buy bread for her family."
"Thank you."
"Anything for you, my highness."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Helios, you have to come out some day." said Sol. He was trying to get Helios out of his room. He didn't leave it since Terra left. He barely ate and when he did, he just eat a few bites. His tan was growing pale and with it his weight.
"Not until Daphne comes back." Helios yelled back.
"Open, this door now!" said Neo-King Apollo. He was also there, and his anger was rising. He was feed-up with his son and he was determined to get his son out of his room today.
"It's all your fault."
"Don't make me break this door down."
"Go ahead."
"Sir, don't be stupid." Sol said.
"What will you suggest, huh?"
"Using the key." Sol pulled a key out of his pocket.
"Why didn't you use it earlier?"
"Because I think he should open the door."
"If I know my son, he'll never leave."
"Sir, you don't know your son. I saying this not out of disrespect, but you hardly spent time with him."
"What?!?"
"He is like a younger brother to me."
"If you only know how true that is." said Clio who was walking down the hall.
"Mother, what are you doing here?"
"You have a son?" said Neo-King Apollo.
"Yes, we have a son." said Clio, then she knock on the door. "It's Clio. Can I come in?"
"Only you." said Helios. He opened the door and let Clio in, then he shut it.
"What does she mean we?" ask Sol to Neo-King Apollo.
"I don't know."
Meanwhile in Helios' bedroom, Helios was laying on his back looking at the ceiling, and Clio was sitting next to him.
"If you're going to try to make me leave my room, it will be a waste of time." said Helios.
"I'm here to comfort you in your time of grief." said Clio.
"I can't believe he sent her away."
"He thought it was right, because that what his father did."
"What do you mean?"
"Let me tell you a story. When I was 18, I started to work here at the castle, and I met someone. I fell in love with him deeply, but his father strictly forbid it. He obeyed his father, and I was heart broken. Like you I didn't leave my bed for awhile, but I had to for my health."
"But..."
"You need to move on with you own life. Yours' and Daphne's path will meet again someday. I promise. Let leave this room. Tons of people want to see you, especially your father."
"I don't want to talk to him."
"He loves you. He know what you been going through."
"No he doesn't."
"Yes, he does. Know that story I told you?"
"Yeah."
"He's the guy I fell in love with."
"What? That can't be."
"It's true, and Sol is your brother, but I didn't tell your father, because we didn't speak or see each other ever."
"I guess I can talk to him."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey, Mr. Helios." said Daphne. She was once again buying bread for her family. This was the fourth time, Neo-King Helios met her.
"Hello Daphne." said Neo-King Helios.
"Guess what?"
"What?"
"My mom gave me more money to buy two pieces of candy. One for me, and the other for my brother."
"She did."
"Yeah."
"So let's go and a get some."
They went into the tiny shop, and Daphne brought a loaf of bread like unusually, and two jawbreakers. Then, Helios walked Daphne home. They were talking the whole time, actually Daphne did most of the talking.
"Come in, please. I told my brother about you, and he wants to meet you." said Daphne.
"Okay." said Helios.
"Great!"
Daphne knocked on the door, and Helios Jr. answered it.
"Daphne, you're back." he said.
"I want you to meet someone." Daphne said.
"Who?"
Neo-King Helios walked from where he was standing by the wall to the door where Daphne was standing in.
"Helios meet Mr. Helios. Mr. Helios meet my brother, Helios Jr." she said.
"Hello." said Helios Jr. shyly.
"Hello." replied Neo-King Helios.
"Let me get my mom." said Daphne.
Daphne ran inside and pulled Terra to the door. Terra was washing the dishes, and stilled had one in her hand. Then, she drop the dish when she saw her grandfather, and she started to cry.
"Mom are you okay?" Helios Jr. asked.
"Yes, I'm fine." Terra replied.
"Mom, this is my friend, Mr. Helios." said Daphne.
"You mean Neo-King Helios."
"You're a king."
"Yes, Daphne. I'm the king of the earth."
"Cool! I'm a princess."
"I know."
"You do?" Daphne looked puzzled.
"Yes. Welcome home Terra."
Terra hugged her grandfather and said, "I miss you, grandfather." Then, she kneeled down so see can looked eye to eye with her children. "Kids, I want you to meet your great-grandfather."
"Terra come home with me." said Neo-King Helios.
"To the palace?" asked Daphne.
"Yes."
"Please mommy, please!"
"I'll love to come home." said Terra.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Helios, are you ready?" asked Sol.
"Why are we going to Crystal Tokyo?" Helios replied.
"Neo-Queen Serenity is naming her heir to the throne."
"Who do you think it will be?"
"I don't know."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I'm nervous." said Terra. She was wearing the traditional dress of the her family, but her hair was not in the pigtails. It was still in the same way her grandmother put it 15 years ago.
"There's nothing to be nervous about." said Rini.
"What do you mean? I will be in front of hundreds of strangers."
"Don't worry. You will soon know all of them."
Then a young maid came down the hall and told Rini something and left.
"I need to go to the throne room, and when it time, I will send a maid." said Rini.
"Thanks grandmother." said Terra.
"You will be fine."
Rini kissed her granddaughter on the forehead and left. Terra went to a window and look out it. When 30 minutes past, she heard a pair of footsteps coming toward her.
"Terra, it's time." said a voice that was familiarly to Terra.
Then Terra turned around and Echo was there.
"Echo," Terra said when she throw her arms around Echo and hugged her, "What are you doing here?"
"I tell you later. Right now you are needed by your grandmother."
"Let's go."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The heir to my throne will still be my granddaughter, Neo-Princess Terra of Crystal Tokyo." said Rini on her throne.
"What? What do you mean? She's gone." said one of the Neo-Kings.
"No, she's not. We have found her. There she is." Rini pointed to the entrance to the throne room.
Everyone turned around, and there stood Terra. She made her way down the red carpet to the throne. She bowed to her grandparents and, then took a seat on the throne to the left on Rini.
Helios was there in the far left corner of the room. Sol there with him. When he saw Terra, he couldn't believe his eyes. That was his wife.
"That's Daphne." he whisper to Sol.
"The one we called Daphne is actually Neo-Princess Terra." Sol replied.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Why didn't you tell me?" said Helios.
Terra was on the balcony, when Helios came up to her.
"I wanted to." said Terra.
"Then why didn't you?"
"Sol and Echo said I shouldn't."
"Who's Echo?"
"Psyche."
"It's figures."
"I shouldn't listened to them I should have told you."
"You should."
"I didn't want to hurt you."
"You should have thought of that."
Helios started to walk away.
"Where are you going?" said Terra.
"Home." he replied.
"At least see the kids before you go."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Helios saw the kids that night. That will be the last time Daphne and Helios Jr. will see their father alive. He married Neo-Princess Aurora, which was Neo-Queen now, a month later. Terra was invited, but didn't go. It was to painful for her. She didn't want to see Helios ever again.
Neo-King Apollo got married to Clio, and named his first born son, Sol, heir to his throne.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The End for now
Please Review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This fan-fic is done. My life feel empty now, but it won't be for long. I trying to think up a sequel. Later!
Part 3: Neo-Prince Helios of the Sun Kingdom
Sorry, I took so long to finish this part. For some strange reason, I didn't fell like writing during the summer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I can't believe I'm marry and to you." said Terra. She was in her room with her new husband, Helios. They were just married a couple months ago. The wedding was held at Clio's house. The only people there was basically them, Clio, Echo, Sol, and the minister, so they secret was safe.
"Why? You're the most beautiful girl I ever saw." said Helios.
"I'm not pretty."
"Yes, you are. I surprise you weren't taken."
"You're lying."
"No, I'm not. They in no one as beautiful as you."
"Whatever."
"No, it's true. Ask any guy in this city. They will give you the same answer."
"I get the point. So, what do you want to do?"
"Eat."
"Let see what we got."
"Okay."
They got up and ran to the kitchen. Terra went to the counter and took some eggs from a bowl.
"Eggs." she asked.
"Perfect." Helios replied.
Terra took out a pan and started to cook.
"So, what are you doing today?" she said.
"My father want me to do something with him." he replied.
"You don't want to do it, do you?"
"Not really."
"Why?"
"My father and I don't have the best relationship."
"Why?"
"We just don't."

"You're having a child."

"I believe you."
"If you find out, can you tell me?"
"Maybe."
"I love you, daddy."
"I love you, too."
He kissed her on the forehead, and walked to his son's room. Terra and Helios Jr. were in there talking. He didn't look like he was in trouble.
"Hey, Daphne." he said.
"Hey, honey." Terra replied.
"Daphne said Helios was in trouble."
"No, I'm not." said Helios Jr.
"We're just talking about something." said Terra.
"About what?" said Helios.
"Nothing important."
"Daphne, I need to talk to you."
"Okay. Helios go play with Daphne and don't get in trouble."
"Okay, mommy." said Helios Jr. and he left.
"What do you want to talk about?"
"We have a problem." said Helios.
"What?"
"The whole problem that I'm suppose to get marry to Princess what her name, but I already marry to the most wonderful person in the whole universe."
"That's a problem, what are we going to do?"
"I don't know."
"Why can't we tell your father that we're married?"
"It not as easy as that."
"Why? He doesn't want you to marry the one you love?"
"Yes. He will do anything for a stupid treaty. Besides if I get marry to Aurora, I would became the ruler of the second most powerful kingdom in the universe."

"I need to tell you something."
"Who's your friend?"
"This is Daphne."
"I thought you hated her."
"That was a long time ago."
"We are good friends, now." said Daphne.
"What do you want?" said Neo-King Apollo.
"I need to talk to you about the wedding." said Helios.
"What about it?"
"I can't marry Princess Aurora."
"What do you mean?" The king said in anger, "Does it have anything to do with her?"
"Yes, father. It does."
"What's so important about her? You throwing a chance to rule a great kingdom."
"I love Daphne."
"Love only bring heartbreak. You will be thanking me."
"No. I won't. Beside it will be against the law if I marry Aurora."

"I married to Daphne."
"You are not."
"Yes, I am."
"I'm the king and I say you are not married to this girl."

"And Daphne, you will leave this kingdom and never return."
"If Daphne go, I go."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Mommy, why can't we leave the apartment?" said Daphne.
Terra found a small apartment a couple of days after they got there. There was two very small rooms in it. The front room was a living room/kitchen/dining room. In it was a table with 4 chairs, a oven with a gas stove, a sink, and a cabinet. The back room was the bedroom, and had a full size bed that almost took half of the room, and a dresser.
"Because." replied Terra. Right now, they're in the bedroom.
"It's boring here."
"I know, tomorrow I will go out and get you guys something."
"A book!" said Helios Jr.
"No, something fun." said Daphne.
"I would get something both of you will like." said Terra.

Terra lived in the apartment for a month, and Daphne begged even more to leave it. Finally Terra caved in and let her buy bread. So ever week, Daphne went to the little store around the corner and brought bread. One day, when Daphne was walking home from the store she bumped into someone from her mother's past and she didn't know it.
"I'm sorry." said Daphne.
"It's okay," said a very old Neo-King Helios, Terra's grandfather, "Do I know you? You look like someone I know."
"I sure we never meet. My name is Daphne."
"Helios."
"That's my daddy's and brother's name."
"Weird."
"I need to get going or my mom would be mad."
"Okay. Bye."
"Bye."
Neo-King Helios watched as the little girl ran off, and he went back home, but for the rest of the day, he pondered why was the little girl so familiar to him.
"Helios are you listening to me?" said Rini.
"Sorry, but my mind is somewhere else right now." he replied.
"Can you tell me where?"
"I meet this little girl when I was walking around Crystal Tokyo today, and it seems I met her before, but I didn't."
"What does she look like?"
"To think about it, she looks like you when you were a child."
"That's impossible. What was her name?"
"Daphne. She said she had a brother, because she made a comment on my name."
"What was the comment?"
"That her brother and father had the same name as me."
"Weird."
"That exactly what I said. I think I'm around you too much."
"That's a good thing, right?"
"I won't have it any other way."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hello your majestic." said the owner of a very small store.
"Hello." said Neo-King Helios.
"What brings you to my little shop?"
"A question."
"What, your highness?"
"I met a little girl yesterday, and I'm wondering if you know where she lives."
"The little girl with red hair and blue eyes."
"Yes. Do you know where she lives?"
"I terribly sorry, but I don't."
"Thank you."
Neo-King Helios was about to leave, but the store keeper stopped him.
"But I do know that she comes the third day of the week at midday to buy bread for her family."
"Thank you."
"Anything for you, my highness."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Helios, you have to come out some day." said Sol. He was trying to get Helios out of his room. He didn't leave it since Terra left. He barely ate and when he did, he just eat a few bites. His tan was growing pale and with it his weight.
"Not until Daphne comes back." Helios yelled back.
"Open, this door now!" said Neo-King Apollo. He was also there, and his anger was rising. He was feed-up with his son and he was determined to get his son out of his room today.
"It's all your fault."
"Don't make me break this door down."
"Go ahead."
"Sir, don't be stupid." Sol said.
"What will you suggest, huh?"
"Using the key." Sol pulled a key out of his pocket.
"Why didn't you use it earlier?"
"Because I think he should open the door."
"If I know my son, he'll never leave."
"Sir, you don't know your son. I saying this not out of disrespect, but you hardly spent time with him."
"What?!?"
"He is like a younger brother to me."
"If you only know how true that is." said Clio who was walking down the hall.
"Mother, what are you doing here?"
"You have a son?" said Neo-King Apollo.
"Yes, we have a son." said Clio, then she knock on the door. "It's Clio. Can I come in?"
"Only you." said Helios. He opened the door and let Clio in, then he shut it.
"What does she mean we?" ask Sol to Neo-King Apollo.
"I don't know."
Meanwhile in Helios' bedroom, Helios was laying on his back looking at the ceiling, and Clio was sitting next to him.
"If you're going to try to make me leave my room, it will be a waste of time." said Helios.
"I'm here to comfort you in your time of grief." said Clio.
"I can't believe he sent her away."
"He thought it was right, because that what his father did."
"What do you mean?"
"Let me tell you a story. When I was 18, I started to work here at the castle, and I met someone. I fell in love with him deeply, but his father strictly forbid it. He obeyed his father, and I was heart broken. Like you I didn't leave my bed for awhile, but I had to for my health."
"But..."
"You need to move on with you own life. Yours' and Daphne's path will meet again someday. I promise. Let leave this room. Tons of people want to see you, especially your father."
"I don't want to talk to him."
"He loves you. He know what you been going through."
"No he doesn't."
"Yes, he does. Know that story I told you?"
"Yeah."
"He's the guy I fell in love with."
"What? That can't be."
"It's true, and Sol is your brother, but I didn't tell your father, because we didn't speak or see each other ever."
"I guess I can talk to him."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey, Mr. Helios." said Daphne. She was once again buying bread for her family. This was the fourth time, Neo-King Helios met her.
"Hello Daphne." said Neo-King Helios.
"Guess what?"
"What?"
"My mom gave me more money to buy two pieces of candy. One for me, and the other for my brother."
"She did."
"Yeah."
"So let's go and a get some."
They went into the tiny shop, and Daphne brought a loaf of bread like unusually, and two jawbreakers. Then, Helios walked Daphne home. They were talking the whole time, actually Daphne did most of the talking.
"Come in, please. I told my brother about you, and he wants to meet you." said Daphne.
"Okay." said Helios.
"Great!"
Daphne knocked on the door, and Helios Jr. answered it.
"Daphne, you're back." he said.
"I want you to meet someone." Daphne said.
"Who?"
Neo-King Helios walked from where he was standing by the wall to the door where Daphne was standing in.
"Helios meet Mr. Helios. Mr. Helios meet my brother, Helios Jr." she said.
"Hello." said Helios Jr. shyly.
"Hello." replied Neo-King Helios.
"Let me get my mom." said Daphne.
Daphne ran inside and pulled Terra to the door. Terra was washing the dishes, and stilled had one in her hand. Then, she drop the dish when she saw her grandfather, and she started to cry.
"Mom are you okay?" Helios Jr. asked.
"Yes, I'm fine." Terra replied.
"Mom, this is my friend, Mr. Helios." said Daphne.
"You mean Neo-King Helios."
"You're a king."
"Yes, Daphne. I'm the king of the earth."
"Cool! I'm a princess."
"I know."
"You do?" Daphne looked puzzled.
"Yes. Welcome home Terra."
Terra hugged her grandfather and said, "I miss you, grandfather." Then, she kneeled down so see can looked eye to eye with her children. "Kids, I want you to meet your great-grandfather."
"Terra come home with me." said Neo-King Helios.
"To the palace?" asked Daphne.
"Yes."
"Please mommy, please!"
"I'll love to come home." said Terra.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Helios, are you ready?" asked Sol.
"Why are we going to Crystal Tokyo?" Helios replied.
"Neo-Queen Serenity is naming her heir to the throne."
"Who do you think it will be?"
"I don't know."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I'm nervous." said Terra. She was wearing the traditional dress of the her family, but her hair was not in the pigtails. It was still in the same way her grandmother put it 15 years ago.
"There's nothing to be nervous about." said Rini.
"What do you mean? I will be in front of hundreds of strangers."
"Don't worry. You will soon know all of them."
Then a young maid came down the hall and told Rini something and left.
"I need to go to the throne room, and when it time, I will send a maid." said Rini.
"Thanks grandmother." said Terra.
"You will be fine."
Rini kissed her granddaughter on the forehead and left. Terra went to a window and look out it. When 30 minutes past, she heard a pair of footsteps coming toward her.
"Terra, it's time." said a voice that was familiarly to Terra.
Then Terra turned around and Echo was there.
"Echo," Terra said when she throw her arms around Echo and hugged her, "What are you doing here?"
"I tell you later. Right now you are needed by your grandmother."
"Let's go."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The heir to my throne will still be my granddaughter, Neo-Princess Terra of Crystal Tokyo." said Rini on her throne.
"What? What do you mean? She's gone." said one of the Neo-Kings.
"No, she's not. We have found her. There she is." Rini pointed to the entrance to the throne room.
Everyone turned around, and there stood Terra. She made her way down the red carpet to the throne. She bowed to her grandparents and, then took a seat on the throne to the left on Rini.
Helios was there in the far left corner of the room. Sol there with him. When he saw Terra, he couldn't believe his eyes. That was his wife.
"That's Daphne." he whisper to Sol.
"The one we called Daphne is actually Neo-Princess Terra." Sol replied.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Why didn't you tell me?" said Helios.
Terra was on the balcony, when Helios came up to her.
"I wanted to." said Terra.
"Then why didn't you?"
"Sol and Echo said I shouldn't."
"Who's Echo?"
"Psyche."
"It's figures."
"I shouldn't listened to them I should have told you."
"You should."
"I didn't want to hurt you."
"You should have thought of that."
Helios started to walk away.
"Where are you going?" said Terra.
"Home." he replied.
"At least see the kids before you go."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Helios saw the kids that night. That will be the last time Daphne and Helios Jr. will see their father alive. He married Neo-Princess Aurora, which was Neo-Queen now, a month later. Terra was invited, but didn't go. It was to painful for her. She didn't want to see Helios ever again.
Neo-King Apollo got married to Clio, and named his first born son, Sol, heir to his throne.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
