Sparkles of the Past
Chapter # 14
Love
Dear dear Mianna, thank you so much for your review. I am sorry that I didn't get to this for a while but my internet was down and I was bogged down by the inevitable homework. I hate it when people don't finish their stories for a long time so I know how you feel. "Bad Crystal Wings, Bad!" Anyway, here is the god news; I have already started writing my next story. Thank goodness for slow and boring teachers! Well, enjoy!"
"I am Serenity, the light to your darkness!" she yelled.
"You! A small child?"
If evil could subside to mirth this one did. Serena bristled; she was sixteen for crying out
loud. Yet compare to his what, billion years she supposed that she was young.
"Yet for a child you are filled with power. Your barrier is very effective, but you see,
you've lost already. I have found what your heart covets most."
A scream rent the air nearby.
"Reenie!" Serena cried and automatically reached out to her daughter. She was all right
yet terrified, somewhere close. But where? Slowly she looked up. Her heart skipped a
beat, stopped, and then started again. Reenie was suspended in the air, surrounded by the
sharp lightning that was slowly closing in on her body. Think Serena , just think. Serena
couldn't teleport her out of there because they weren't touching, but if she was her child
then she also had the innate ability to teleport herself. Serena searched until she found the
ability then triggered it inside Reenie. She teleported her into the bowels of the castle and
encased her in a protective crystal covering. He could not get to her there. Now she was
really pissed. No one threatened her daughter, no one, not while she drew breath into her
body. Her crescent signal flared on her forehead, shinning amidst her bangs. Her crystal
appeared in front of her. Now *she* was going to play.
"No go you bastard!" she cried.
"Come on, do your worst. Feel the anger inside of you, feel its pulse. It's powerful,
maybe powerful enough to beat me." The wind whispered around her. Indeed she could
feel it inside of her. Searing her like a white hot brand. Boiling in her blood.
"Serena...."
She was broken out of her reverie by Amouries voice. Amourie? Where was she? Was
she outside?
"Serena..."
The voice was soft and warm. Like her mothers. Serena felt calmed by it.
"Use love honey, not anger. Anger can not win this battle."
the wind had stopped chilling her body. Now she was warm. The warmth came from her
crystal. Soft blue tendrils of light caressed her hands, arms, and her whole body. They
were so warm.
"Amourie..." But inside the crystal? "Love." Serena said softly. "Love will hurt this
creature. It is hate, and hate can not stand love." As the storm raged on she thought only
of the things that she loved. Her friends, her family, her pets, the blue sky, Darien's
kisses, and the sunshine. Even her enemies called forth some sort of love, for if not for
them then she would not know her friends. Serena felt something new, different. She was
being led deeper inside the crystal then she had ever dared to go before. Into a resonance
that she hadn't know had existed. Then it struck her. Before when she had used the
crystal she had been using only her energy. Not the crystals. The thought that there was
more of this magic was frightening to her. And yet Amouries presence was all around her
offering comfort.
She delved into the blue light and felt it connect with her. It bonded into her skin, her
blood. It thrummed in her veins. The power of love so deep and steady. The darkness
laughed thinking itself safe from whatever she was doing. But she could only feel love
for it. Love that it was alive, that it had brought her here to this place. She rose until she
was right next to it in the air. He stopped laughing.
"I am the light to your darkness." she whispered softly. "You are evil, and you take so
many happy lives away." She felt energy crackling in her lips, warm blue energy. It built
and built burning her soft skin, trying to get out. She thought of Erlings words to her
earlier, her eyes turned a brighter blue. "But..." She leaned closer. "I still love you." With
that said she finally let the energy go.
