It's always the stars in the night sky that bear the burden of listening to the desperate wishes of the people that live underneath them. And there are many, many wishes.
The fairy princess and her brother, her twin. In their high up castle, they have so many things, the latest games, good food, clothes, a swimming pool - everything and anything they wish for .Almost. The king and queen of their little kingdom, the ones who made this all true are not there. Always they are away, making money. The fairy princess and the prince never see them. What they truly wish is for their parents to be there, escort them to school, cook them dinner, and tuck them in bed at night after reading a story.
Another king, proud, and stubborn. Can never do any wrong. Or can't he? To get to where he is now, he had to steal a treasured possession of a friend, and jeopardised the life of another. He convinces himself there was no other way. His true wish was to be a king, respected and feared for his skills in the arena. But maybe this wasn't so. Maybe what he really desired was to be the type of king that does some good too. Perhaps he wants to be forgiven, even though he is an extreme power in this world of his. Perhaps.
She hides her face behind a mask and wanders about in the night. She is alone, and doesn't attempt to talk to anyone. If challenged, she lashes out with a fury that is matched by a power that sends them running .In time; she will be regarded as an uncertain myth, something to be terrified of. In her home, a man who she trusts plans to use her for his own means. She doesn't know of this. All she wants is to be rid of the powers that got here in the first place. She wants to find her mum and dad again, make peace with them. But perhaps most of all, she wishes for someone to see the girl she is despite her powers. For someone to truly love her.
To look at his face, someone would think that he is a ruthless, rebellious criminal. To see him in his day to day life, they'd see that the truth is different. That motley crew of young children are his life. He has a foul mouth and temper, he's always in trouble, but he loves them. And wants the best for them .His wish is to get out of this dump of a place, find something better for these kids, and himself too. But in this state, it seems to be impossible.
Blue eyed stargazer. He is a dreamer, softly spoken and wise. He lives in the same area the criminal and his nest do, but they don't talk. Their friendship broke a long time ago. Even now, it still wounds him. He'd like nothing more than to heal the rift that formed between him and his friends. That, and to fix the bridge that separates the two places that should be united. He sees that the stars form a bridge across the sky. Why can't the people down here do the same?
All of these separate wishes, all tossed up at the sky full of shining orbs that can do nothing but listen, and shine a little brighter to give them hope. But maybe one star can. The Crimson Star, who stands out simply because of the red colour of his glow? In there is the mind of a powerful dragon. A dragon who listens to the wishes of the fairy princess, the king, the masked girl, the criminal and the dreamer with midnight in his eyes.
And then decides there is only one solution.
To bring them together.
Yes, this is a slightly odd one. But I hope you get the meaning behind it and like it anyway. And , just In case I don't get to say it later: Merry Xmas , minna-san !=D
