Sorry to disappoint anyone, but the ball will be over, because it was a masqued ball and to me they end at midnight, but I may try for another ball who knows any way let me know what you think of this chapter. ******

In a room of darkness laid a young boy whom had just been born.

"Nester!" A man said as he picked up the boy. "His name will be Nester."

_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_

Nester appeared in a dimly lit room in his underground castle. On a table in front of him laid many thorns that had come from the cage, the hind had been in.

"Prince Nester?" Asked a man dressed in a little armor. Nester turned his head slightly and glared at the man.

"What do you want?" He commanded harshly.

"Did you want us to do any thing with the thorns?" He asked shaking. Nester turned his head back to the table and then looked back to the man.

"I want you to make arrows out of them." Nester replied smiling inwardly.

"Why's that your highness?" He asked receiving a deadly glare from the man.

"The thorns hold the blood of the hind on them. The hind's blood can kill any male royalty on the moon and all of the royalty on Earth. I wish to take control of the Earth, by killing the earthen royal family. Following the conquest of the Earth, I will then start a war between the Earth and Moon; hopefully the war will deal with the female royals of the Moon. Do you understand?" Nester asked turning his full attention to the young man in armor in front of him.

"Yes, your highness!" The boy said.

As the man stepped forward toward the table, Nester stopped him with his hand and said, "Don't touch the tip if you can help it, it may kill you too!" Nester said smiling. The man gulped and continued forward, when Nester's hand returned to his side. The man picked up the thorns carefully and took them to the armory.

Nester awaited his arrows to be made, by sitting in the throne room thinking. He sat with a half full goblet of red whine in his left hand.

'I didn't know that the hind could change form into a human. If I had I would have just gone after her human form.' He slowly brought the goblet up to his lips, sniffed it, and then threw it across the room. The goblet hit the wall and shattered allowing the liquid to flow on to the floor. "Stupid servants, I made sure to memorize the smell of every poison when I learned that they were people out there to kill me.' He chuckled out loud, and then went back to thinking about the hind.

'Her human form is exceptional, but I cannot figure out where I have seen her before. I know I've seen her before, but where?' He asked himself

"Maybe she is closer to you then you think!" Rang a voice from across the room. Nester brought his head up and looked toward the door to see a woman with fiery red hair, blood maroon eyes, and she was wearing a tight fitting purple dress. She also held a staff with a black crystal orb atop it. His eyes narrowed as she walked closer to him. When she stood a few feet away from him she smiled and stopped walking.

"What do you mean by that? Where you reading my thoughts again?" Nester asked.

"Yes, and if you don't mind, my son, I would like to speak with you about your plan." She said.

"As if I have a choice as to talking to you about it." He scoffed, ticking his mother off.

"How dare you speak to me that way!" She raised her staff and a dark hand came from the orb and wrapped around her sons' throat and lifted him from the ground. "You ever speak to me like that again and I will have you killed before those moon brats get a chance to even try!" Beryal snarled. Nester tried to claw at the hand, but his hand went right through the black hand. Beryal watched her son try to get free and laughed, "Don't bother the hand can only be touched by a demon and you are not a demon." Beryal raged as she forced the staff to the ground, causing the hand to disappear. Nester fell to the ground landing on his butt.

"Thanks for the help mother!" Nester snarled as he stood up. Beryal glared at her son and then disappeared.

"You know son, you shall not win you're fight!" She cackled, "Good riddens to my one and only ungrateful son!" Beryal's voice said, coming from all different directions.

"As if I needed your help mother, of mine!" He snarled to the air.

"Oh my son, you shall be begging for me to save you and I shall not! This is the last time I will see you!" She said as her voice faded away to nothing. Nester slowly moved his hand to his throat and rubbed it a little to get the pain to go away.

'My mother always seemed to hate me, now I know she truly does, oh well she's not good for anything anyway!' He thought. As he sat back down in his throne, a boy rushed through the doors carrying quite a few arrows.

"Were those all made from the thorns?" Asked Nester.

"Yes! A few men died while making them." He answered as he walked toward the throne.

"Why is that?" He asked not really caring.

" Because they touched the tip of the arrow to check their workmanship, then they just fell over dead." The boy replied.

'This is good news, the blood will kill all men!' He laughed inwardly.

Aris stood in the armory looking into a mirror, checking to see how the armor fit. The armor was gray and black. The boots went from the feet to the knees, and were black. There was separation from the thigh pieces where the knee's bent. The breastplate went to where the thigh pieces started and on the sides a length of the breastplate continues till the bend of the knees. The shoulder pieces covered the shoulders and extended a little down the top of the arms. Fingerless gloves began on the fingers and went up to where the shoulder pieces stopped, they were black. The neck was left exposed. A helmet that had small protrusions coming down from the base covered the head. It left holes from the eyes and a small hole for the mouth. The top was rounded off and had a horn coming out of the middle of the forehead.

* Everything that was not told as black was gray, the horns are a gold color*

"Aris, The armor will protect you from most things, but the hind may be another story. " Nester stated from the doorway.

"I understand, I'll do my best!" Stated Aris. Aris watched Nester through the mirror.

"Your best may not be enough. Be on guard, you will be in the Hind's forest." He stated as he moved to pick up a sword.

" I know where I shall be! By the way that sword is far to heavy for you to pick up!" Aris called, still watching him in the mirror. "That's my sword! Most have a hard time lifting it." His hand stopped a little above the hilt.

"I doubt that! I'm sure it's very light, it's far to thin to weigh too much." Nester said as he wrapped his hand around the thin handle.

"What ever you think, Prince!" Aris said, turning around and laughing at Nester as he struggled to lift the sword, from it sheath. "Told you!" Aris beamed, walking over to where Nester stood. Nester took his hand from the hilt and Aris lifted the sword out of the scabbard with ease, then swung it around and placed it in the sheath on the back of the armor.

"Hm, What's it made out of?"

"I am not sure, but I wouldn't tell you anyway. Now can I have the arrows and a bow?"

"If you wish!" Nester said. He held out his hands in front of him and a quiver with the hind blood arrows appeared, along with a strong cherry bow appeared in his hands.

"Careful the arrows have killed quite a few men today, it may kill you to." Nester said before he disappeared from the armory.

"I don't believe that they will, Nester, but I'll take your warning into consideration." Aris said, knowing all too well that Nester could hear what was said. Aris turned back to the mirror and smiled. "I will kill the hind and her prince, with these arrows." Aris then placed the quiver on the back of the armor and place the bow in the same fashion as the quiver. Then left the room, by disappearing.

Well this is a short chapter and I know it wasn't what you expected, but I hope to help clear up any misunderstandings with Nester, I hope this helps and I have to thank Solus for pointing it out. Some times as an author I know what I'm thinking but some don't cause I may leave something out anyway here is a four page chapter to help.

I have a question and if someone can figure out a close answer I will try to put you in here, I probably won't portray you, as I would if I knew you really well, but any way here is the question. Can anyone tell me what type of person Aris is, male or female and after what you said, who do think he/she will be related to? Let me know and the closest person can be in the story. This will not be into play until it is posted on fanfic to give everyone reading a chance. I have a lot of people giving me ideas and I thank you cause I was lost at where to go next with Serena and Darien, and now I a good idea thank you.

Sorry this is so short but I had little time and I wanted to post as soon as I could, the next chapter will be longer and probably involve Aris more. Plus I have hard time writing about the enemies, well all except Aris that is.

Oh yeah please review I love to get reviews and ideas, thanks again I hope you like it.
