Type 016: Princess' Tragedy I
During the night you will see a beautiful white flower that is sprouting on a pure sold every time you passed by. This beauty flower is called Moonflower as people called it. But the Moonflower was not easily to be noticed by other people except only few of them can see it. As you see they have thought this flower was a curse or they could not understand its true beauty. This is how the story goes on how they called it the Moonflower.
Centuries or years ago in medieval times of old English, in a large castle, there was a young princess was sitting on the garden. The young princess was Luna De Raynard Runatic has short blonde haired, she wears a beautiful little white dress, which suits to her cute face. She was busily looking at the beautiful flowers that she had adored so much. King Cain and Queen Elizabeth were watching at the young princess.
"She's growing up really fast, isn't she?" said the King.
"Yes still I'm worried of that…" the Queen muttered worriedly. " But I hope it wouldn't happen."
The young princess Luna was still on the garden playing with the butterflies and the birds. She looks very happy playing with the small creatures but behind her smile she seems really sad and lonely deep within her heart. Although no one had ever noticed the young princess' true feelings since all of them only saw was her smile. Without thinking Luna walks straight forward to her direction then she noticed she was lost.
"Where am I?' she asked her herself. "Can anyone tell me where I am?"
No one reply to the young princess' questions only the hollow and emptiness in the place. Of course since she's in a huge and vast castle only royalties ones and the servants can live in there. Luna's heart began to ache as she found she had visited to an unknown place that she had never put her foot to this place. She was about to cry but then three boys appeared suddenly and they were about the same age as her.
"Who are you?" Luna asked the three boys.
"Oh… please excuse us. I'm Astral De Reodard Heven from the Heven Kingdom." The brunette haired prince answered.
"I am Kenn Le Elric Wolflein from Wolflein Kingdom." Answered the boy with bluish hair.
"I'm John El Edwin Leonard from Leonard Kingdom. I'm also Kenn's cousin." Answered another blue haired boy.
"Astral De Reodard Heven, Kenn Le Elric Wolflein and John El Edwin Leonard… You three are the prince from your kingdom, isn't that right?" she said. "Why are you in my kingdom?"
"Your kingdom? Then you must be Princess Luna De Raynard Runatic, am I right?" questioned Astral.
Luna nodded.
"Well this must be destiny. We came here to meet this kingdom's princess since our parents forced us to come here." John explained. "The people must really love their princess."
"Eh? But I've never seen much people ever since I was born." Luna pointed out.
Astral, Kenn, and John stared at the innocent blonde haired princess surprisingly at what she said. They were really surprise at it yet they wondered why Luna's parents didn't let her come out of the castle. The Runatic princess noticed few birds and butterflies starting to land on her and starts play with them.
"Hey why don't we play together since we're the only kids around here." Luna suggested.
"Sounds like fun, Princess." Kenn agreed."
"I'll just call you guys Astral, Kenn, and John for now but then you'll have to call me Luna." She told them.
"Deal!" the young princes agreed.
Four kids smiled at each other's faces then they started to play the game of tag. Three princes and a princess having so much fun together that they ever had. Luna was all smiling as she plays with her three newfound friends. In her eyes weren't sadness or loneliness anymore instead it was filled with happiness and joy. It was the first time in her life she ever felt that way.
Far away from the kids, the servants were panicking as they were searching around the castle trying to find Princess Luna. The King and Queen were most panicking of all knowing that their daughter suddenly have gone missing, which is never expected of their life. Behind them were the couples of guests from other kingdoms and they too had their sons' missing.
"This is so absurd! This hasn't bee like that!" exclaimed the wife of Heven Kingdom.
"Calm don dear I sure our son might have met the other and probably played out." Said the King of Heven Kingdom.
"Although in what place would they be?" pointed out the King of Wolflein Kingdom.
"I think I might know where they can be." Said the queen. "Follow me."
The Runatic Queen dash out as quickly as she can while the other adults followed her all the way until they reached the garden where Princess Luna was last seen when she was there few hours ago. Then they started to search around until…
"I'VE FOUND THEM!" Shouted the king from Leonard Kingdom.
Everyone went to where Leonard King was located and found their child. As they reached there they were surprise seeing their child were playing tag happily and fun. They were relief and glad to see the young princes and princess was all right.
"It looks like there's no need to worry about them." Said the wife of Wolflein.
The Kind and Queen of Runatic Kingdom were staring at the children playing happily then they eyes laid to the happy young princess who was enjoying the fun. They were happy to see Luna's true smile that they had ever saw in their whole life as they only recall sadness and loneliness deep in her eyes..
"Seems they became friends." He said,
It was already dawn, the carriage for the three important royal families from different kingdoms was ready for them to leave. Princess Luna was feeling upset knowing it was time her three new friends had to go. This also saddens for Prince Astral, Prince, Kenn, and Prince John.
"Don't worry Princess Luna I'm sure we'll come back and play with you again." Said Astral.
"Astral's right so please don't be sad." Kenn told the young princess.
Astral, Kenn and John knelt down top the blonde haired princess who was already half crying. Luna looked at the three boys' face. She could see that they're showing their sincerest and honest expression that she had seen. Looking at it made her feel happy and secure.
"Ojay!" Luna chirped happily. "Then we should also write each other too."
"Hmm…Writing each other huh?" Astral wondered.
"Sounds a good idea, Luna." John agreed. "Isn't that right Cousin?"
Kenn looked at his cousin and nodded. "Sure." He replied.
"It's time to go Princes!" the coach carriage announced.
"We better go… See you again, Flower!" Astral bid farewell.
"We'll definitely see each other again!" said Kenn.
"Please looks forward!" John told her.
The three Princes had gone inside of their royal carriage where their parents are or in other words they could see their Kingdom's emblem at each carriage. The Heven's emblem has a bird that was soaring its wings with two lead behind it. In the Wolflein Kingdom's emblem has the head of a wolf as it seems to be howling with a sword over it. While in Leonard Kingdom's emblem has the side view of a lion's head with a cross. The young blonde haired princess watched the royal carriages go while she was waving at them happily. Queen Elizabeth and King Cain were watching at their dauthing siling secretly.
"I'm sure they're going to visit us again, Luna." Said Queen Elizabeth.
"Your mother's right so don't be sad." Cain told her.
"I understand but Prince Astral, Prince Kenn and Prince John are going to be my best friends!" she exclaimed happily.
Queen Elizabeth looked at her young daughter's face carefully. It is indeed a true smile that she was seeing it for the first time. She could not detect any sadness or loneliness behind Luna's beautiful sapphire blue eyes. Queen Elizabeth was actually happy to see her smile it was the happiest one in her life.
"She is smiling for real." Thought the queen. "This is a miracle."
"Yes… I hope those Princess will continue to smile our daughter." Suggested King Cain.
Many years have passed as Princess Luna had all her time meeting up, playing and bonding to her newfound friends, Astral, Kenn, and John. For years the three princes were also happy being with the only female friend. Little know Luna was the happiest ones with the three cute and handsome young boys who accepts her.
But somewhere within the deep place where no humans or any living things could be able to enter or get out of the place or even escape of their nightmare. That place is where you will wander forever and a place where bad people have gone ahead. Within the darkness two unknown people were standing alone.
"Looks like those royals forgot the fate of their child's death." Said the person.
"Why not dear? Even they'll encounter happy ones they'll also have to face the tragedy that awaits them." Said another person.
"You're right it would be more fun as I've already planned their Destiny." Said the person slyly. "Just like I've told them."
-Flash back: Years ago
It was beautiful and exciting feast on Runatic Kingdom for they are celebrating the happiest news on King Cain and Queen Elizabeth, which is the queen's newborn child the princess of Runatic Kingdom. Everything were very happy hearing it so they gathered around the castle to see the King,
"To the people of my Kingdom. I thank thee all for coming to the celebration of my daughter's birth." Said King Cain. "For all I'd like thee…"
"YOUR DAUGHTER'S LIFE WILL BE SHORTEN!" Someone yelled out.
"Who dare speak ill-well to our great king!" yelled the guard.
The mysterious person appeared floating in the sky in front of the dearest king and queen of the people's kingdom. Queen Elizabeth held her baby as tight as she can but not really tight just to make sure her baby won't laid to someone else's hand. The evil man smirked evilly while looking at King Cain and Queen Elizabeth.
"As I said your daughter's life will be shorten and I've already put the curse." He informed them. "With the curse it'll be unremoveable. MWAHAHAHA!"
"SILENCE MAGICIAN! UNDO YOUR MAGIC TO MY DAUGHTER!" King Cain ordered.
"Ehehe… My apologies, Dear King but I cannot longer undo it for I am just a merely soul." He said.
Before King Cain would about to order out more of undoing the magic from their newly born baby, the mysterious man was fading away. He was a spirit just as he speaks. Now he cannot undo the curse of the little baby. No other magician can release it. The King and Queen had nothing to do but to cry.
-End of Flash back
After he had recalled the memories from years ago during the celebration of Princess Luna's birth. The mysterious man continued to smile evilly at the long memories he had treasured it along even if it's really evil and bad ones. The other person could see that the mysterious man was actually agreeing on having fun seeing the curse child.
"Now I wonder how it'll go on." The person whispers.
Far away from the two mysterious people back to the beautiful castle of Runatic Kingdom. The young beautiful 16 years old Princess Luna was sitting under her favorite place while she was reading a book. Prince Astral De Reodard Heven was there distance away from the beautiful princess. Astral was also into his 16 years old and had grown much mature and handsome than the last time. He was gazing at her eternity beauty with a loving gaze.
"My Dear Flower… you've grown much attractive and beautiful than the last time." He muttered.
"Since when are you gonna be like that, Astral? Said the familiar voice of a boy.
Astral got shock and startled after he had heard the sudden voice out of nowhere. Then he calms down as he heard the familiar voice of a boy that he had knew very well. He turned his head around and saw Prince Kenn Le Elric Wolflein was standing behind Astral with his arms crossed against to his chest and has a slight smug on his face. The Heven Prince had a small feeling behind Kenn's smile.
"What is it, Kenn? Why are you had a smug like that?" Astral asked him.
"I'm going to bring you down and Princess Luna belongs to me." Kenn answered with serious tone.
"Hey you said you won her!" yelled the Heven Prince. "Wait don't tell me…"
"Yes, Astral. I'm also aftering her so don't get in my way." He told him.
Two princes from different Kingdom were glaring at each other's eyes so firmly. Astral was being insecure at what Kenn told him, the words were really harsh yet serious although he could not let him do that. Yes, this is the beginning of the battle between Kenn and Astral. But Astral wasn't sure if he's actually in love to Luna.
