Desires
A soft moan escaped Darien's lips as he awoke from a forced sleep, his body sore from the wounds Serena inflicted on him. "Serena." He pleaded, his mind clearly somewhere else then the place he was actually in. Andrew sat quietly beside him in a chair, a strained look on his face. "Serena where did you go?" he whispered.
"Darien, she isn't here." Andrew whispered, his deep voice low, and calm.
Darien turned towards him, "Yes she is I've just seen her, how do you think I got so hurt," he rose up from his lying position, staring straight into Andrews eyes. "I know you don't believe me Andrew, I sort of don't believe myself at the moment," he let out a weak laugh, "but I know what I saw, and I am going to get her back even if it kills me!"
Andrew closed his eyes, hanging his head down, he sighed weak from the constant worry over Darien, "Alright Darien, I believe you," he spoke softly. He raised his head up staring directly at Darien's eyes.
Darien stared, his eyes unwavering, "Do you really?" he waited for Andrew to flinch, "I know you think I am crazy, but what else am I to live for, the woman, the only woman that I love." He stopped for a moment, his emotions getting the better of him. "I've seen her Andrew, I know she is alive, and I am going to find her." Darien rose and walked to the window near his bed, his face unemotional, he looked down watching all of the happy people go by.
Andrew placed his hand on Darien's shoulder, "I can't help but believe you Darien, and I can only hope that you find her." Darien turned around, "I think that I am going crazy Darien, but go," he turned not wanting to face Darien, "Go find Serena, I know that you will." Darien stared at him for a moment, his eyes wide with shock, Andrew turned to look at him, "Go Darien, your wasting time."
Darien gave his friend a hug, then ran out the door, his body was still in pain, but his heart soared.
"Don't worry my queen, I'll make it stop" Emerald whispered, a smile of malice playing on her lips.
"Oh Emerald, please take me to Diamond, I need to speak to him," Serena looked at her pleadingly.
Emerald gazed down at Serena, her voice emotionless, "Of course, I shall do whatever my queen asks."
"I feel so weak from using all of my energy Emerald, thank you for being so kind," Serena smiled at Emerald.
"Just lean on me my queen, and we shall get there in no time at all," a sudden thought filled her mind, "The last I saw Diamond, was in the rose garden," Serena leaned gratefully against Emerald, "I can't wait to get rid of this filthy human, she reeks" Emerald turned her head away from the small woman, "Lets go this way." She smiled, helping Serena slowly make her way to the garden. Not soon enough for Emeralds taste, a faint fragrance of roses began to tantalize their noses. "We are her my queen." She led Serena deeper and deeper into the garden, till they found themselves in a secluded area.
"Where is Diamond, Emerald?" Serena questioned, settling herself down on a bench near some black roses. She felt a little better now that she was no longer by herself, listening to her own mind.
"I didn't want to make you walk to far, Serenity, Diamond is just up ahead." She smiled bitter sweetly down at Serena "I shall go and fetch him for you, just wait right here." She disappeared from Serena's site, she had to see if anyone was around, "Yes, Serenity, anything for you my queen, " she spit out, "Not anymore this is the end for you" She laughed, looking around the garden. "No one is around . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. Good!"
Serena waited patiently for Emerald's return, her thoughts turned towards the roses. She leaned down to smell one, "This smell,' she whispered, "So familiar." As if someone was whispering in her ear from behind, "Serena my love, don't you remember me?" Her eyes grew wide, she quickly turned around, no one was there. 'Why are you haunting me still, I've told you before I don't remember." She screamed, her body shaking uncontrollably. She felt as if she was losing her mind, "It's me Darien." That faint voice whispered back to her. She sat resolutely back down on the chair, she close her eyes with her hands covering them, images of the earthian poured into her mind. "I love you" She began to cry, "Please go away, I love Diamond."
Emerald walked behind Serena, hearing those last three words come out of Serena's mouth made her whole body shake with a rage. "Diamond, is mine." She growled sharply, her teeth clenched tightly. Serena turned around to look at Emerald as sherose up the green dagger. Serena's face showed a look of pure horror and shock, she opened her mouth as if to say something, but Emerald interjected. "He was never yours in the first place you earthian, DIAMOND IS MINE!" She leaped forward attempting to plunge the knife deep into Serena's heart.
From all of the training that Diamond gave Serena, Serena was able to think fast and avoid the fatal blow from Emerald. The dagger went deeply into her right shoulder, blood began to stain her dress a deep scarlet, and her arm dripped with blood, growing redder and redder by the second, as she fell to the floor. A sharp pain erupted, and her eyes formed tears, pain searing through her body. She leaned forward, her arm numb and lifeless, her hair sliding over her shoulder, becoming the deadly color, drops of blood sliding down the golden strands. She grabbed the dagger, slowly grasping the handle she screamed out in pain as the blade re-sliced her shoulder from her pulling it. Emerald stood over her laughing with pure malice and joy.
Emerald leaned over Serena easily grabbing the blade from Serena's hand, she then whispered, "Now is their anything else I can do for you my Queen?" She laughed as she played with Serena by stabbing her in the shoulder again, "This will teach you to take My Diamond away from me!"
Serena cringed in pain as the blade plunged deeper into her arm, almost going right through to the bone; she sat there for a second, in shock over the whole thing. She looked at Emerald sorrowfully, "I am sorry Emerald." She whispered, her eyes grew a deep purple, as she pulled out all of her remaining energy, and rose her unhurt arm, Emeralds eyes grew wide. A small orb of dark energy formed around her hand, growing more and more concentrated by the second, then slowly Serena released it and it hit Emerald directly. Emerald flew back, her body being thrown as if it was a rag doll.
Emerald was furious for Serena fighting back, she could barely see, the fury overtaking her mind. She tried getting up, but couldn't move, the more she struggled, the less she could move. "What's happening to me?" she screamed.
"Emerald, how could you betray me like this?" a deep voice resonated. Emerald looked up, straining her neck to see the perpetrator, Diamond stood there his face emotionless. "You are exiled from my presence, I don't want to see your face her ever again." He stared at her.
"No, Diamond, but I love you!" Emerald screamed, Diamond released her from her paralysis. She smiled, "I knew you love me to Diamond, I just knew it" All of a sudden her body began to glow, she looked down at her hands, "No Diamond, you can't banish me, Diamond!" she screamed, "I'll finish what I started Serenity, Diamond is mine, you'll regret ever taking him away from me." Her body completely disappeared.
Diamond turned his full attention to Serena, "Serenity my love," he rushed to her side. She sat there breathingshort raspy breaths,her body completely drained from using all of the reserves of her energy to attack Emerald. 'Don't die on me Serenity." He forced out, her eyes beginning to close, her head falling back. He held on to her pulling out the blade that was still in her shoulder.
Serena screamed in pain, her body shaking involuntarily from the loss of blood and pain. "I'm not going to die am IDiamond, please help me?" she pleaded, her eyes half open, she reached up her hand touching his face, tears freely falling from his face.
"Serenity, I don't know what I would do with out you" He held her close, moving some strands of blood stained hair out of the way. He called upon some of his dark energy, his hand glowing a strange bright blue, "This will make the blood stop flowing" he whispered, placing his hand on top of her cut. The wound immediately stopped bleeding. "I can't heal it, but only just temporarily stop the blood."
"Just let me rest a little Diamond?" Serena smiled up at Diamond.
"Oh Serenity, I love you so very much." He cried, holding her tightly.
"I love you to Darien," She whispered, before she fell into an unconscious state. Diamonds eyes grew wide with shock.
