Ristar: The Feel of a Star
Chapter 1 - Dark times
Life was pretty normal now on the emerald planet where Ristar lived. It had been a few years since he defeated greedy in his space city. The planets were slowly re-taking control over the orbs which once tried taking over their minds. Without a leader they did not have a direction and could not stay in control. Everything was fine until now except for 2 things. One was that recently there had been a mysterious blackening in the southern part of the galaxy. This of course was not what worried Ristar.
His dad, Eiyustar had become quite ill and although he tried convincing Ristar that he was going to be fine, it was clear that his condition was worsening. What made things worse is that no one seemed to have a cure. Ristar tried to put on a brave face while sitting beside his dad each day. He knew he would need to set out on a quest to find a cure and had been preparing to for quite some time, however he did not want to leave his fathers side.
It was one night while sleeping in his crystal bed that he made up his mind. He had a dream where he saw his dad lying on his bed. Dark shadows surrounded his bed and where making a strange moaning noise. Ristar tried to run to them but as he did they jumped onto his dad and disappeared into him. When he got to his dads side he had stopped breathing. A tremendous sadness welled up within poor Ristar, awaking from his dream and crying loudly. Realising it was a dream he quieted down before attracting too much attention.
The next day, he entered his father's crystal bedroom and told him of his dream and plans to go in search of a cure. Eiyustar tried to tell his son that things would be alright as reassuringly as he could, though Ristar was still to visibly shaken from the dream to change his mind. Seeing that there was no way he could stop his son now he gave him one request. He asked if Ristar would possibly check out what was happening in the southern galaxy if he could. Ristar nodded knowing that he would have to go in that direction anyway because he wished to speak with Riho first.
The next day Ristar was ready to leave. He spent a little while saying goodbye to those he knew and to his dad. He told the doctor to take care of his dad until the day he returned and to not let anything happen to him. The doctor nodded and Ristar was ready to go. He walked outside into an open field. It stretched for miles and sparkled with green gemstones. Ristar looked at the scenery one last time. It would be some time till he saw his home planet again.
It was now time, ristar concentrated and a golden aura formed around the young star. He looked towards the purple sky and jumped high into the air. Shooting out of the atmosphere he could only hope he would be able to get back in time to his fathers aid. Turning his head briefly as his home became further and further away a small tear fell from his eye. He shook his head trying to concentrate on the task he had before him as he flew towards the wormhole that would take him close to Planet Flora.
