Chapter 2: Helios' Visit
Rini was suddenly in the middle of a group of various looking people all dressed in green robes and yellow hats. They weren't the same clothes; each one was unique. Rini, herself, was dress in a long elegant green robe with a fancy yellow hat. It was fit for a princess. She lay on the ground starting around.
"Where am I? Who are you people?" Rini jumped to her feet, startled and curious at the same time.
"See? She isn't happy!" it was the child voice that spoke. Rini turned around to see a small boy, with blue hair and eyes, pointing at her and pulling on an old lady's robe.
"Foolish child!" the old lady shouted pushing him aside. The lady herself had silvery-white hair and wise gray eyes. "My dear, girl-"
"Turn her back!" the bold voice shouted. Rini turned and saw a young man standing behind a few people. He was handsome with his jet-black hair and violet eyes. "We don't need anymore people to suffer!"
"Slience! All of you!" the old woman shouted. The noise from the crowd just got louder.
"Would someone please tell me what is going on?!" Rini screamed. That was when silence fell. "I wake up, and find myself in a group of green yellow clothed people! And I see myself dressed that same! What's going on!?"
"We are the flower people," the old lady began. "I am their leader. Their creator. I am your creator. I made you into a flower just as you wished."
"I never wished for such a thing!"
The old woman ignored her, "I am Iris, Lily, Daisy, Violet, and Rose. I am the Queen of all the Flowers! You should pick a nice place to settle in.your roots will soon grow in." The Queen walked away.
Rini remained silent. She was still confused by all this. She went and stood next to the little boy and the young man.
"How come she isn't rooted?" Rini asked.
"She's the Queen," the boy said.
Rini turned and faced the boy. "Will you tell me what's going on?"
"No, my big brother tells it better," the boy replied. He pointed an arm to the young man.
Rini turned to face him. "So, what's your name?" the young man asked.
~~~~~~~~~ "See, Endy? It reads right here," Serenity pointed to a page in a pink book, also known as Rini's diary.
"'Am I afraid to love? Or perhaps I don't want to love anyone except Helios. I know that Helios and I could never be. I'm a princess, after all. I should marry a prince, or at least, a boy that lives on Earth's surface. 'It was just a childish love. But.
'One day I'll find the perfect man. Even better than Helios. Then I won't be so in love with a man I could never be with,'" Serenity read out loud.
"I don't get this woman-love emotion," the King replied.
"She knows that Helios isn't suppose to marry, since he is a priest. So, she's going to find someone, hopefully, that could match up to Helios. And she's afraid that she'll forget about Helios if she does fall in love with another."
"Your majesties," a guard walked in. He bowed in the highest most respectful way. "Priest Helios has arrived from Elysion."
"Very well. Serenity to the throne room!" Endymion directed.
Helios stood at the doorway of the throne room. He turned when he heard the King and Queen coming. He bowed low. "King, Queen."
"Helios, we know you well enough, for you to skip the royal treatment," Serenity said sitting on her throne. Endymion sat beside her, while Helios still stood.
"Why did you call me here?" Helios asked.
"It's about Rini," Endymion said.
"She's missing," Serenity turned her head away, her eyes had a distress in them.
"I'm very sorry," Helios said. He looked at the floor, and didn't say anything else. He didn't know what else to say. What could he say? As a priest of Elysion, he knew he was allowed to love no one; especially, the Princess.
"We were wondering if you know where she might be," Endymion spoke breaking the silence.
"I'm sorry. I don't."
"When was the last time you felt her energy?" Serenity asked.
"I'm sorry. I don't know what you're talking about," Helios replied quickly. "I can't feel her energy."
"You can always feel the energy of the one you love," Serenity smiled.
"I don't love Rini. She's a princess, and we're just friends."
"That's what they all say," Serenity muttered. "Show Helios to his room," she ordered a servant.
Helios followed the servant. His eyes looked down on the ground, and he knew the energy that was always around him was Rini's love.
That's was a nice chapter. I'm not the best writer, but I think it's pretty good for a 14 year old. Anyway, I got a review from "Nina," I think, who asked me: How could Rini be 16, if she was 902 years old when she went back to the past?- Well, because it makes life a lot easier for me. Since I don't know the rate that Rini ages, making her 16 would be easier for me, and some people to picture what a 16 year old Rini might look like. However, judging by certain things, Rini was probably about 9 years old when she was 900, but I'm sure, so she's 16. No complaints, please.
