She rushed past the trees, the colors nothing but a blur as the salty tears stung her eyes. Running faster and faster, she ran passed the dancing guests on her planet. Her sobs catching the attention of everyone. For it was a sight to see such a beautiful princess crying, and a shame.
Her mother, always a Queen before a mother, jumped up from her thrown. "Minako? Minako!" She hollered, catching the attention of the guests who hadn't noticed the princess.
The young princess made no attempt to stop, for she just kept running. Into the palace, many servants tried to figure out what was wrong, but none could catch the girl.
Turning a corner a maid cut her off, tangling the princess in her arms. "Princess forgives thai, but what is wrong?" her gentle voice sounded worried.
"Nia! Nia! Leave thai to be! Thai wishes to do nothing more than die!" Minako yelled as she managed to get free from the maids grip. She ran to her room, locking the door behind her. She threw herself onto her bed. "Yaten..." she whispered, as memories flooded her mind. "Thou are so stubborn...And yet, so...Loving and caring..." With those last few thoughts in the night, more tears stained the Princesses rosy cheeks.

The morning came, and forcefully the sun pushed the moon out of sight. Yaten stood outside his parent's bedroom, trying to focus with the right words. "This, this will bring them joy." he thought. "Though, it makes them right all along." he added stubbornly. Pushing the giant doors open, he made his way into there large Victorian room, shutting the door behind him.
He threw the curtains to each side of the bed, letting the sunlight wash over his parents eyes. They slowly awoke and looked at their sun, shining in the sunlight, they knew it belonged to him.
His father played dumb, "Whom has woken us up, lovely wife?"
She sighed, "Our son."
The King grumbled, "What is it thou wants this early?"
"Mother, Father. About this stay here..." Yaten began, still unsure if of how to say the words he had to say.
"Oh Yaten," his mother started, "not this again."
The King interrupted, "We are leaving in two nights, and thou can deal till then!"
"No father thai cannot dill with that arrangement!" Yaten hollered, he demanded to be heard on this topic. It was, very important. He couldn't stand too loose the only person he had ever had feeling for.
The King looked stunned, "Why the devil can thou not wait!?"
"Because I wish for another arrangement!" Yaten replied.
"And what might that be!?" His father roared.
"I wish for thai hand of the princess Minako...In marriage." Said Yaten. His parents sat there in shock.
"Whom are thou? And what has thou done with our son?" The King asked, bringing the covers up to his neck.
"I am Prince Yaten of the son, the only heir might I add." Yaten smiled, it seemed to be happening a lot on this planet, "And I wish to take the throne, with the Princess of Venus as my Queen."
The King and Queen smiled, 'Bout time' they both thought.
"Arrangement agreed?" Yaten asked. His heart pounded, they should agree. After all they wanted him to marry.
The King nodded, "Provided her parents and her agree, yes, all agreed."
* * * * *
The Queen of Venus entered her daughter's bedroom. Her long crimson cape following behind her. She shooed the maids and other servants away. Insisting to have a moment with her only child. Once they all followed her command, she approached her daughter, whom was sitting on her window sill.
"Minako." Her mother breathed.
Minako turned around and stared into the blue depths of her mothers irises which bursted with emotion. "Yes, mother?" She spoke faintly.
"Thai is sorry for wishing you to marry. But your father and I can't live forever. Even the Gods and Goddesses die out of their shine. And as sad as that might be, it gives the people in this solar system, a chance to see another shine. And give them more hope, that there's more than one shine capable of being a God or Goddess.
"Its thou's birth right. And thai knows, right now it doesn't seem like a privilege, but it is. Thou'll change things, thou'll be a hero. And thai knows thou are upset about Artemis. But thou will find love, even greater than that feeling thou held for him." Her mother spoke gently and calmly.
A tear slid down Minako's cheek, "Thai has already."
The Queen's facial features softened. "Whom?"
"A man that bares a mask, to hide the truth from strangers, so he doesn't get hurt." Minako replied, she felt stupid enough about her mother being right about her feelings for Artemis, she didn't need her to know she was right about Yaten as well.
"And what does this man think of thou?" Her mother asked raising her eyebrow.
Minako averted her eyes to the floor, "He despises thai, and thinks that thai are nothing but a witch with love spells." Another tear.
The queen stood up straighter, "Perhaps your both miss-judging each other. Thou said he wears a mask, but perhaps he took the mask of long ago for thou. And thou said he called thou a witch? But perhaps he said that because he really did fall in love with thou." She smirked in a way that made Minako wonder where her mother was up to.
"It doesn't matter, he doesn't wish to marry." Minako's pessimistic attitude surfaced to her heart again.
"Perhaps thou should leave that opinion up to him, only he knows what he truly wants. Despite what he might tell thou." Another smirk. She was up to something...Though Minako had no idea what.
"Come down stairs when your done getting ready for the ball." Said the Queen as she turned to exit the room.
"Mother, thai does not feel well enough, please. I plead with thee, let thai stay here, in peace." Minako whined. Her heart had been through so much, in so little awakenings of the sun.
Her mother stood up straighter again with pride, "Minako, as a Goddess in training, thou must shine, and make sacrifices. Shine for thou's people, and sacrifice thou's self. Bare thou's heart, and embrace the future. Thou never knows what awaits, or whom awaits for thou, but this is thou's sacrifice. Now go and tell him how thou feels. Before thai misses my chance to have grandchildren!" She hollered, exiting the room afar.
Minako sat there. Her mother was right. About everything. 'Can thai have as good a shine as my mother? She bares her heart deep inside, only letting my father see in private, what she really feels. Will thai be as good a Goddess? Or will thai fail her and our name?' She turned to look outside her window. The sun let its rays gently hit the flowers in the garden. And the beautiful waterfall which could be seen from her bedroom window.
"More importantly...Can thai tell Yaten...that thai...Love him?" Minako asked herself, staring at the beautiful sun as it began to set. It was so prideful, it was no wonder why Yaten would be the ruler of that prideful sight.
