Black Heart



     "Serenity darling! Come here, we need some help!"

   Serenity jumped back into her room from the balcony and walked gracefuly toward her mothers room. 
   "What is it mother?" she asked.
   "A friend of mine from the past wants me to visit her, could you promise me you'll stay here?" Queen Serenity said to her in a mother like tone.
   "Yes, of course." Serenity knew she would break that promise, but that was fine. No one would know...would they?
 
   After her mother left, Serenity was gazing out of her room looking at the beautiful blue sphere called Earth. 'I wonder...if mother is down there?' she thought to herself. Earth was always a nice place to spy around on. Besides, on Earth, it would only be 3:00 AM. Nobody stayed up that late...
   So it was decided. Earth was the place to go this clear night. Serenity disappeared in a gold shower to Earth. When she landed, she saw a strange figure. 'Who was it?' she listened to him talking to himself.

   "Shot! How am I going to explain....will she know--" at this he turned around and looked directly at her,"Who are you? You don't know, do you? Or am I just imaging this?" 
   Serenity stood there horrified. Her mother, well, now would know for sure. She would always be left with some sort of 'babysitter'. 
   "I'm sorry if I scared you. Isn't it kind of late to be wondering around? Am I right? Sorry, my name is Furmery," he said to Serenity at her confused look.
   "My name..." Would it be better not to tell him? Or not? One person won't matter," Serenity." 
   " Beautiful." His eyes caught hers while she was looking at hers and she turned bright red. He looked at her with deep eyes. "Do I, know yo-" before he could finished he had gotton closer to her and Serenity hadn't refused. He lightly took her hand and looked at it. 
   "That same fixture...." he looked up from her hands and looked directly at her. Serenity felt like this was, fimiliar. His head came closer to hers, and then it happened. They were kissing, and it came so naturally. But Endymion, her destined, what was her life turning into? 
   Furmery dropped in a mid-position, taking her with him. They dropped to the floor and Serenity felt dizzy. 

   And then everything went black.

   She woke up to find herself in a strage room, nothing like the palace. Her head ached, what was wrong? Then she saw Furmery. Such a strange name.....
   
  "I....do you.....medicine?" was all he could say. 
  Medicine, oh yes. "Please, that would be nice." At least she could say more that him.
  Then it was as if she woke up from a long sleep. It all came back to her. Her mother leaving, the ki-- her mother! It was morning all ready!
  Just as Furmery came with the medicine she pushed the tray aside. "Please, I have to go, please!" she said. Furmery grabbed her wrist. "But..." her desperate look made him let go. She bolted from the house and went outside. How could she do it? 'I'm sorry Endymion! I'm sorry!' she wailed to the sky. She found a clearing and disappeared to the moon.

  She crept into the palace and back into bed just as her mother came to wake her up. What a close one! 
  "Some people these days are horrid... Morning my darling! Sleep well?" Queen Serenity said. But Serenity didn't feel like she felt well. Her mother boosted her out of bed. She tried to walk...she couldn't...she needed support....
  
  And then it happened. 

  She collapsed on her mother completely unconscience. Before blackness totally filled her vision, she cried. 

  A cry for help. 
  
  "...Endymion..."
