Author's Note: Hi everyone! Welcome to my newest fic! I call it Trinity of the Heart. If all goes well, I will release it two or three chapters at a time. Of course, it's a Threads of Fate fic, which takes place 4 years later. If things go even better, this will have three parts: This part, a Mint/Rue fic, the next part, a Belle/Duke fic that happens right after this one, followed by a Fancy Mel, Prima and Elena fic. Then maybe an epilogue fic. All the fics have all the characters, just each story will focus more on one of them. Anyway, I'm hoping to do justice to this great great game. Wish me luck and review. See ya!

Mint: Mayaaaaa! What the hell are you doing in here!? I said you could eat dinner after me!

Mint screamed at Maya, who had just entered the dinning hall. It had been 2 years since Mint's father died. Now, she was Queen of the East Heaven Kingdom. Mint was so angry, she didn't notice the odd look in Maya's eyes.

Maya: Why, hello DEAR sister Mint! What a lovely voice to wake up to!

Mint: What's with you? You've been acting like a bitch lately!

Maya: Oh, have I? I was just following my DEAR sister's example.

Mint: Oh, that's it! You're dead!

Maya: Really? I was thinking, it would be the other way around!

Maya snapped her fingers. Several guards appeared and surrounded Mint.

Mint: What the hell is going on here? I'm the Queen!

Maya: Tsk, tsk. You need to listen more. I'm rebelling. You're old news brat. I'm the new Queen.

Mint: Over my dead body! You'll have to get the crown first!

Mint jumped out of her seat and over the table, landing in front of the doors. Maya laughed.

Maya: There won't be any escape this time Mint!

Mint: This time…?

Maya: Trap Master!

Mint: WHAT!?

To her surprise, Trap Master appeared. Mint grabbed her Duel Haloes. Trap Master laughed.

Trap Master: Hey brat! How are you doing?

Mint: You! What the hell are you doing here! You should be dead!

Trap Master: Whatever. All I know is I'm here and soon, you won't be.

Maya: Hahahahahahahaaa! Now what Mint? Use some stupid magic trick! Go ahead! Free shot!

Mint spun her Haloes around in front of her.

Mint: You asked for it!

She shot tried to shoot off a few bombs but nothing worked. She let her Haloes fall to her sides.

Mint: Huh? What's wrong with my magic?

Maya: Heh, I sucked it out duh! Let's just say, that new soap I gave you works wonders!

Mint: Ugh! What is it you want then? The crown?

Maya: Hmph. That's not all…I want your life! You ruined me! You destroyed me! You'll pay!

Mint: Huh? Are you…really Maya?

Maya: Only in body.

Mint: Then you're…are you Mode Master!?

Maya: What a surprise. You're wrong.

Mint: Then who…?

Maya: Someday. But first! Trap Master! Grab her!

Trap Master disappeared, then reappeared right next to Mint. Mint tried to jump but Trap Master grabbed her. He took the crown off her head and tossed it to Maya.

Maya: (puts the crown on) Ha! Everyone! Bow to the new Queen of East Heaven!!

Mint: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Meanwhile, in a in a cabin in the woods…

Claire: Rue, be a dear and go get some water from the creek please?

Rue: Yeah, sure!

Runis: Can I come?

Rue: Sure. Grab your jacket, it's a little cold out.

Runis: Kay! ^_^

Rue and Runis walk down to the creek with a couple of buckets and begin to fill them.

Rue: I was thinking, how about we go fishing later? I see a ton of fish in here. Claire will make us your favorite.

Runis: Fish Stew? YAY!

Rue: Ha ha ha…

Runis: What?

Rue: Nothing. Just thinking, you sounded like Elena for a second.

Runis: Oh…your friend right?

Rue: Yeah…I wonder how they are?

Runis: Why don't you go visit them?

Rue: I just…it's been many years, you know. Plus, Rod's gone, Belle's gone, Duke's gone, Mint's gone. Most of them are gone.

Runis: Maybe they'll come back?

Rue: Maybe…

Runis: You need to be more positive! They will come back! You're just being stupid!

Rue: Now you sound like Mint!

Runis: She was the girl you had a crush on right?

Rue: (blushes) I did not have a crush on her! I thought she was cute…that's all! I swear it!

Runis: You liar!

Rue: Uh…the buckets are full now! We better go back home! (grabs a bucket and runs and trips)

Runis: Smooth, reallll smooth.

The boys walk home, after Rue refills his bucket, without mention of Rue's "crush" on Mint. When they get home, they find Claire waiting outside.

Rue: Hey Claire. Is something wrong?

Claire: I'm surprised you haven't said anything!

Rue: Huh? About what?

Claire: Today! Today is the 4th anniversary of your defeat of Valen!

Rue: TODAY!? Four years already?

Claire: Yep! While you boys were out, I made a feast in celebration! I made a roast, veggie soup, a big cake, stew…

Runis: Fish Stew?

Claire: Yep!

Runis: Yeah!!

Claire: Haha! Now come inside and wash your hands! Dinner will be ready soon!

Runis: Alright! (runs inside)

Claire: (about to go in) Rue, are you coming?

Rue: Huh? Yeah…

Claire: What's wrong?

Rue: Thinking…

Claire: About your friends?

Rue: (nods)

Claire: Then that's it! You're going to Carona tomorrow, got it?

Rue: (smiles) Yeah, ok…

Author's Note: So, what do you think? I know there's not much detail yet…think of this as a test run to see how well it goes over, ok? Review please? Thanks.
