Serena: Queen of the Nile
Chapter Four: The Prophecy
By Graham Parsons
**************************************************************************** *********************
June29th, 1 day left for destinies arrival
The scouts were still preparing for Ursula's arrival, and all the while, just outside the border that led to Egypt, an unimaginable power was growing and growing.
We come to a large cave like structure buried deep under the surface of the hot, bellowing sand dunes. The rocks are pointed and jagged; as we reach further we see a large structure that resembles a chair. In it, sits the most impatient and hot headed spawn of Satan.
She bellows angrily, "WHERE IS THE PROPHET OF FATE?!!!!!"
"Right here, your majesty, all that is evil, Past, Present, and future, reporting for duty."
"Yes, yes whatever, how is our progress coming, have you worked out the planetary alignments?"
"Yes, Queen Ursula." She exclaimed
"Well, what's the prophecy???" She said sarcastically.
In eighteen hours from now, precisely, the planets will align, ever so nicely.
"God what is this VERSE??" Ursula sighed
The time to act will be at hand, Unleash the darkness, your monstrous band,
"Good, good..!!! Ursula screamed"
Then the once proud scouts will finally fall, and YOU Ursula, will rule ALL!!!
"Yes, ah URSULA RULES!!!!" Ursula bellowed
A word of caution to this tale..
"What???" she questioned
"Should the princess fight, you WILL fail."
She let out a loud scream of laughter, and with that Prophet of Fate disappeared into thin air.
WHAT!!!!!!!!! Her body emitted a large sum of energy and nearly destroyed her entire underground fortress.
"What princess is this??? The prophet has surely gone mad. Unless. No, no, not now, not after all of this time, the sister of the WEST!!! I knew Isis wouldn't be able to take me on herself. well that's just fine, nothing is going to get in my way, those retched tramp sisters of mine are going to be paid a visit none the less. Those scouts mentioned must be her meddlesome friends. No matter, by the time that my darkness is through with them, my sisters will be the easiest of targets!!!
She let out a large scream of laughter; which echoed and pierced every nook and cranny of the underground, storm clouds were brewing above ground, and destiny has a date with our heroes. just 18 hours left.
**************************************************************************** *************************
Back at the palace of Isis, the girls were all just sitting down to eat dinner. Spirits were not high however, as everyone was so very tired, barley being able to keep their eyes open.
Rei still had room to give Serena grief however; she turned to her and said; "What makes you so tired meatball head???" Serena didn't answer; she lay there as if she were in a state of Trans or something. it was as if she wasn't asleep, and not awake at the same time, a state of limbo perhaps.
"Queen Isis.?" Ami Questioned
"Yes Ami???" said the Queen
"Why is Serena so desolate and distant lately? And how could she be even more tired that we are, after all she didn't do any training.?"
"That's what you think. After all, she is the Sister of the west sun, my sister, Princess Serena"
"WHAT!!!!!!!!! All four scouts exclaimed and rose to their feet."
Then the queen took a sip of her tea and said in an embarrassed tone; "Oh I'm sorry did I forget to tell you that??!!!" she laughed at the same time.
The girls all immediately fell to the ground with the strangest looks on their faces.
"But I am sure of one thing however; Serena has been working day in and day out to revise the ancient scriptures, so that she may be able to become the person that she once was. The protector of the West.
"But queen Isis.. Mina explained. If Serena really is the protector of the west, or whatever, does that mean that we were involved in all of this somehow???"
"Yes Mina, that's very true. You all have a connection to Serena. You see, in the past, you were all part of Serena's court. Just as you were during the time of the Silver Millennium I believe."
"How do you know about the Silver Millennium?" Lita Asked
"I know a lot more than you may think I do Lita." The Queen replied
"And what is that supposed to mean?" Rei exclaimed. "You are asking us to put our trust in you, and you aren't giving us much to go by." "Now tell us the truth, just how powerful is this enemy that is approaching, do we even stand a chance, or has all of this been for nothing???"
"Believe me Rei, your efforts have not been in vain, you all need to stand by Serena in this time, she needs you to stand by her side and protect her, just as you would if you were still in Tokyo." "Look, I am sorry that I cannot tell you everything about me, and what's going to happen tomorrow, but all I know, is that you need to help me stand up to my sister, if we all rally together I know we can beat her.!!!"
At that point Serena woke up, with a look of sheer determination on her face, the girls tried to talk to her but she just muttered these words;
I won't let you defeat me Ursula,
I have friends that are counting on me,
I will take my rightful place,
And I know that you can hear this.
"She is truly growing in to her powers" Queen Isis exclaimed. "She is already making a connection with the battle that will proceed tomorrow, in all of my life, I have never seen her so focused, and I would know" The queen shimmered out of the room.
"I HATE WHEN SHE DOES THAT!!!" The girls all yelled
**************************************************************************** ***********************
Meanwhile back in the Underground fortress of Ursula, she sat, waiting in her chair, with a smug, greedy look on her face.
"I hear you Sister. Loud and clear. We will see if you can come back to your old roots, I guess only time will tell. 15 hours left Girls. Hope you have a welcome party planned, because I am dying to see the looks on your faces when I crush the humanity that you have been sworn to protect. Believe me; you will not go unpunished for the pain that you have caused me Isis. You should have known better.
"It is a sin to kill a mocking bird" She laughed
End Chapter four
Well, the next chapter will be up soon, I am sorry that it took so long for this one, it's just that I have been overseas for so long, that I haven't really been focused on my writing, Oh and before I forget, I have made a new website!!! If you want to have a peek!!! www.freewebs.com/keiichi56
