Serena moaned and tried to open her eyes, but hadn't the strength to move. Odd sounds swirled around her. Someone shouted her name. :Darien?" There there was a bang and she was falling through something and landed on something soft and airy, like a cloud. : Where am I?: she thought dazzed. A sudden sleepiness came over her as she struggled to think. It got harder to think.... harder to remember....

*~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~*

"He cut my cheek! My beautiful cheek!" Diamond raged. He paced the throne room, working up a rage. All the while, his brother , Sapphire, knelt and watched.

"I'm gonna make him pay! Sapphire, get up and go prepare Princess Serena. It's time the Prince of Earth felt the true pain of betrayal."

"Yes, Diamond." Sapphire replied and disappeared, leaving Diamond to the mental image of Darien defeated by his own love.

*~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~*



Sapphire walked into a room so covered in multi-colored pillows that he almost tripped while just stepping in. With pink and yellow pillows scattered here and there, the room was so out of place in the Ebony Palacee that it was comical. In fact, Diamond had designed this room specially for a certain princeess he had dreamed of ever since they met.

The story was Diamond and Serena were once in love when she was still on the moon, before she and Darien met. One night, Diamond had intended to propose and make a declaration of undying love when Darien had came and stolen Serena. They had stayed together all that night and the day after, they announced their engagement. Diamond had gone berserk, attacking the prince in the throne room!

Concerned, the Queen banished him to the Black Moon and also all his family and followers. The days after were horrible to Sapphire as he watched his beloved brother suffer so much. That day he had vowed to someday find a way to get Serena back to him.

Now, as he tripped over to the Sleeping Princess, he felt a great sense of completement. His brother would finally get what he had longed for all these years.

Sapphire had reached the girl by this time. He soon removed the sleep spell from the girl, but kept the paralyze spell on her. He needed her conscious but unable to escape.

Soon, a moan came from her lips as her eyes slowly opened. *Blink, Blink.* Sapphire hovered a white gloved hand over her forehead, waiting.

"Wha....where am I? Who are you?" Serena muttered. Light started to gather at his hand, faster and faster.What are you do.....AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" Serena screamed as pain burst through her head, light blinding her. She strruggled to move, but something help her down and forced her to endure the torture. She was whipped through memories at lightning speed, going back and reliving it before spinning away to the next one. The pain was incredible and tears fought their way free and down her cheeks.

"ST....stt.....STOP!PLEASE!" She begged at the unseen torment. "PLEASE STOP!!!!!!!!"

Suddenly, the light was gone, but the pain still lingered, breathing fire through her veins and back. She cried openly now, begging for death to come end the pain. A cool hand touched her forehead and spoke, but her head pounded so hard she couldn't hear the words. But the pain had dulled and finally she was blessed with sleep.

But there was an aching hole in her heart.......like something was taken from her.

*~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~**~*~*

Diamond ran into the room at Serena's scream...and instantly tripped. Cursing, he blasted away and with feathers stuck all over his head, he made his way towards Sapphire.

"My goodness!" Diamond opened his eyes wide with surprise at the look of pure pain on the face of the girl he had loved for so long. "What happened?" he asked.

Sapphire sat stunned. His ears still rang with the sound of utter torment. His fist glowed a golden color, but only now did he realize Diamond was talking to him.

"Sapphire?" Diamond said, voice lined with concern.Sapphire blinked a couple of times.

"I...I just did what you told me to, Diamond." he slowly opened his hand to reveal a pure white crystal that seemed to have something alive inside. A burst of pleasure raced through Diamond, and he took it from Sapphire eagerly.

"Oh yea!" He exclaimed, staring intently at the gem. "Let's start the changing process now." There was a flash of black magic . When Sapphire could see again, his eyes widen in surprise. Resting in his brother's hand, instead of a silver-white crystal, there was a gleaming onyx crystal, perfect and flawless and as black as the darkest night.

"Now," Diamond whispered. "Now she's truly and wholly mine."

Sapphire just started at the precious gem that held all of the princess's memories----changed.

Serena slept on.
