Prologue
Thunder crashed, splitting the perfectly clear heavens.
The Princess of the Skies looked up, worriedly, one hand absently
stroking her Sapphire Palace, which was build upon the ethereal
floating ice mountain, dubbed The Celestial Eternity. A stream
of pure darkness shot straight at her out of nowhere; she barely
had the time to throw up her shielding. As it was, the ray glanced
off the shielding, instead splitting the waters below. An agonized
scream was heard, and the sickly sweet smell of burning flesh
reached her nostrils. Haruka grimaced, and melted through her
shield, diving toward the sparkling waters below. Hovering a few
feet above the surface, she pointed a finger at it, releasing a
streak of shimmering blue light at the waters, creating a tiny
whirlpool which disappeared at suddenly at it had appeared. A second
later, a young girl with deep blue eyes and wild aqua hair rose out
of the sea to meet her. A crown of seashells adorned her head, a
glittering pearl acting as the centerpiece, and in one hand she
held the royal talisman of the sea, an aquamarine-colored mirror
with intricate designs. Haruka dipped her head, greeting the vivacious nymph.
"Michiru, they're here. The skylilies* have been wilting
for days."
She opened her hand, showing the nymph light-blue lilies,
nstead of the pure-white ones that Michiru had been expecting.
The aqua-haired girl looked at them closely, and held up her mirror,
reflecting the flowers. The mirror showed black fumes pouring off,
and the mermaid stared at Haruka in shock. The blond nodded lightly,
and closed her eyes, muttering a few incoherent words. A bright-eyed
hawk appeared within their vision, and dived towards them, landing on
Haruka's outstretched hand. She stared at the hawk, unblinking, and
spoke to him through her eye. A second later, it took flight towards
the sacred forests.
"He'll inform the primary elements."
"Meanwhile, our people need our protection."
Haruka gave a quick nod, and began to glow. Michiru shielded
her eyes as the light grew, and when the show ended, Haruka was holding
a gleaming sword, the Space Sword. The mermaid rose up on a fountain
of water, her tail curled under her. The Space Sword and the Deep Aqua
Mirror crossed, and they began to chant.
Sky and Water,
Wind and Sea,
Show your strengths,
Your powers immense,
Channel it through me,
Both in Harmony.
Aqua light burst from the mirror while blue light flew from the
sword. They danced and swirled, entwined and mingled, forming a dome-like
shape over the water and skies. The two women panted, their faces pale
and dripping with sweat.
"Our people are safe, now."
"Yes, they are, but Cyprus is not."
"If the primary elements do not find the them, then all is lost."
"Ice and Lightning, Luck be with you."
"Fire and Metal, leave with my blessings."
"Light and Creation, our hearts are one."
With that, Haruka flew back towards and palace, and Michiru dived
into the Sea, both praying for protection.
