Chapter 8
Night didn't pass by quick enough for the small Martian. He tossed and turned around in his bed as he moaned half awake. Images in his mind were flash fowarding like lightning. The sight he saw was his mother being taken from the house, and the last glance she gave him before Martin and he escaped. Still tossing and turning, he dreamed sounds, those horrid sounds of his mother screaming for her life, and the Venusian song, shrieking louder than ever in his head.
"No!" he pleaded out loud, but the dreams still wouldn't stop.
"You're a spy for your queen!" began to echo in his imaginings, "Arena!" It was the voice of Senator Dewin, and the punishment that was to become to Marvin. More shouting occurred in his mind, neither of his mother, nor Dewin, but crowds of people. It was his people.
"HELP!" he heard every one of them cry out in pain. A flash of purple smothered the thought in his mind, as the song began haunting his mind once more.
Then something else went off like a siren in his head. The sounds of a little girl screaming for her parents, and sinister laughter began. The blurred image of a small girl filled his dreams.
"Mommy, Poppie", she bawled in an immense fit of tears. Marvin stared in horror as the laughter grew lower. A hooded figure began to approach him, as he felt the urge to shield the child. The dark figure was the same height as Marvin, wearing a blue and gold trimmed cape. The being raised his palm in the air as a huge beam of violet light shot at him.
"NO!" the Queen of Venus sprang up from her bed. The young girl glanced around her bed chambers as what felt like cold sweat, pored down her forehead. Panting with all her might the young queen raced toward her wardrobe for her dressing gown. She ran out of her chambers with a flash as she proceeded toward Marvin's guest room.
"Ambassador?" she whispered as she attempted to slowly open the door. Shaking on his bed was Marvin, his eyes were blood shot and it looked like he had awoken in a cold sweat.
"You're Majesty?" he looked almost relieved to see her, "I'm sorry if I woke you up."
"No, its okay", she approached him with the same relieved expression painted upon her baby blue face; "the question is, are you okay?"
"Yeah", Marvin gave a heavy sigh, "nightmare."
"I see", she took a small rag out of his dresser drawer, "me too." The young queen dampened the rag in a small sink that was in Marvin's room, and handed it to the young Martian. Marvin glared up toward her in gratitude that she would take time out of her beauty rest to make sure he was fine; no one had done that but his mother. The small thoughts still racked Marvin's mind as he glanced out the window.
"I thought your skies were emerald green at night", he pointed out to her.
"Hmmm." she thought, "That is odd." The sky wasn't green at all, but a dark purple. Beyond the horizon it looked almost like the sun was coming up, but wasn't. "It looks almost like a reaction off the Light", she concluded as Marvin glanced up toward her in interest.
"What exactly is the Light?" he questioned eagerly, "Is it really as powerful as they say?"
"I don't really know", the queen began with a heavy sigh, "the forbidden cave is forbidden to everyone, even me."
"But you're the queen?" Marvin questioned in a confused tone, "You make the laws don't you."
"Actually no", she explained, "I run the planet, yes, but when it comes to the Light. Well, the Light makes its own decision." Marvin gave another look toward the sky of this new world he was in; there was so much he didn't get to learn.
"What did it look like?" the young girl began asking questions. Marvin scratched his head as he dabbed his face with the cloth.
"There were markings on the walls. The marks were ancient, and colorful; almost like your ancestors drew them." She curled her lip in interest. "I came upon this huge beam of purple light just coming out of the ground, I reached out and.."
"And what?" the queen couldn't take the suspense. Marvin glared up toward her sapphire eyes as they blinked in excitement.
"The guards arrested me", Marvin busted her bubble. She gave a huge sigh.
"I guess that's a good thing." She explained, "My father told me that the light can consume a Venusian, but destroy an outsider."
Marvin glared down toward the clock on the nightstand; it was going on three thirty.
"I guess it is getting late", she was looking also, "I'm sorry if I've kept you up Ambassador." Marvin glared up toward her in an apologetic way.
"No you haven't", it looked almost like he was smiling, "I was fixing to say the same thing." The girl gave a small chuckle toward her guest.
"I must speak with you more tomorrow, Ambassador", she informed him, "I really want to speak to you about the Light." Marvin nodded his head.
"I need to talk to you as well", he spoke with a small bow of the head, "and call me Marvin."
"And you may call me Venna", she smiled politely as she exited the room.
Marvin glanced once more out the window as it began to rain. He opened it as he reached out toward the air before him. Small puddles of orange water filled his white gloved hands as a small sound of thunder cracked within the violet sky. He glared over toward the town square, then toward the villages beneath him. He was right about one thing; Venus was a native planet indeed. Marvin gave another heavy sigh toward the memory of his nightmare. Glaring up toward the violet atmosphere, the small Martian caught glance of a tiny red dot gleaming beyond the lavender clouds.
