"It's time for bed, honey," Queen Serenity giggled as chibi-Serena tugged at her dress.
"Mommy, tell me a bedtime story." Serena looked up at her mother with her big innocent eyes, full of curiosity and enthusiasm, "PULLEEAASSSEEE?!?!?!"
"Ok, fine, you win. What would you like me to tell you?" The queen signed, accepting defeat.
"Lady Maelstrom! Tell me about the Legend of Maelstrom!" Serena jumped up and down in excitement at her own words.
"Maelstrom? I've told you this story dozens of times. Very well, this is the last time though.
Helios, the great horned warrior, was a lonely being. He had so much love to give, but no one to share it with. One day, he became so unhappy, that he shed three tears. The first one disappeared, the second on became a jewel, and the third...became a lady. This woman was a manifestation of the one he has waited for. She too had powers because Helios was where she was created from. She had the ability to move land and walk on water, her name was Lady Maelstrom..."
"Keep going mommy, I want to know what happens next..."
"Serena" this was not Serenity's voice.
"SERENA WAKE UP, YOU'RE GOING TO BE LATE FOR SCHOOL." The familiar voice rang in her ears for about ten seconds when she realized that is was her talking cat, Luna.
"You were dreaming about your mother again, Serena?" Luna asked, rather concerned.
"Yes, it was when I was younger, and she told me stories. She was telling me about Lady Maelstrom before you broke my ear drums!" Serena sat up to look the cat straight in the eye.
"La,la, lady....Maelstrom?", Luna's voice quivered, "Oh, don't buy...buy into sss...such nonsense."
"What's wrong Luna, why do you stutter?" Serena was becoming very suspicious about this legend.
