Neo Queen Serenity stood leaning against the balcony of her chamber, clutching the porcelain railing for support in the grand palace of Crystal Tokyo. The sun was being silently devoured by the horizon line and the sky radiated a scarlet glow. The blonde monarch starred into the distance of the kingdom. The inhabitants were presently living in peace and happiness, not aware of the bloody war boiling out in the universe. Serenity then focused her eyes on the extravagant fountain planted in the center of the palace's hundred-acre garden that stretched out in front of her.
Serenity suddenly felt faint and began swaying backwards. The obedient maid came rushing to the queen's side.
"My queen," the maid said softly, "you haven't slept in two days and have been away somewhere else some days before that. You must rest or you'll break."
Serenity managed a faint smile. "I'll be fine. I must be fine for the king is still out there, somewhere in the universe trying to rescue Little Lady from Giopiana. Giopiana is a despicable woman, willing to do anything to reign the universe which is why she captured my dear Rini. My husband and my daughter are both fighting for their lives. The least I can do is to remain in Crystal Tokyo as Endymion instructed and put on a smile to ensure my people are living peacefully and safely."
"My queen, may I ask where you went a few days ago?"
"I went to solve the problem. I gave Giopiana what she desired and made her promise to give me want I wanted in return a fair trade."
The maid, suddenly realizing what the queen meant drew a gasp. "But without the Silver-"
Serenity cut her off, "You mustn't tell anyone. Promise me."
Tears began oozing from the edges of the maid's eyes. "But you'll die my queen and what about Crystal Tokyo?"
"Crystal Tokyo will be fine. Giopiana will not be able to use the crystal because if she does, the crystal will disperse."
Just then, King Endymion burst into the room holding Rini, unconscious, in his arms. Serenity's hands fluttered to her chest as she rushed to her husband's side. He gently lowered Rini onto the bed while Serenity tucked little Rini under the covers and knelt beside the bed to observe her daughter's slow, even breaths. When Serenity rose to face her husband, he suddenly kneeled, in front of her.
Endymion took her hand and kissed it. "I'm sorry to have caused you to worry so much."
"Why are you apologizing, it wasn't your fault."
Endymion then noticed the once radiant glimmer in his wife's eyes is now cloudy, her pink lips are now shriveled, and her skin is pale and frigid. Endymion rose to study the state of his wife and gently touched her cheek. Serenity allowed her eye lids to fall and smiles, indulging the pleasurable comfort of his touch. Suddenly, the swaying returned and Serenity fell forward into Endymion's arms. He pulled her down beside him on the nearby chaise and had her lean into his chest.
"What happened?" he demanded.
"Rini's safe, everyone's safe, and Crystal Tokyo will be a happy place again."
By now, Endymion was furious. As much as he loved and was panicking for his beloved, her stalling utterly aggravated him.
Endymion then realized the only explanation to his wife's deteriorating health was that the silver crystal was no longer in her possession. "Where's the silver crystal?"
Her cough was coarse and she hacked out blood.
"Someone, help!" he shouted. The maid who had left the room when Endymion returned exploded through the double doors and gasped at the portrait she witnessed.
"Get a doctor!"
The maid couldn't flee fast enough at the command.
"I'm fading Endymion, I can feel it. Nothing is going to help me."
"I won't let you leave me. How will I face Rini?" How will I face myself he thought?
She dismissed the comment. "We've been together for a millennium but I still don't understand why you chose a meatball head for a wife."
She closed her eyes and laughed once but her usual contagious laughter now projected as a weak huff.
Endymion's jaw clenched at the pain his wife was suffering and inquired the million dollar question again, "Where's the silver crystal?"
"It's gone. How else would Giopiana have released Rini so easily?" Serenity smiled at this. "She kept her word. There's still hope for her."
Endymion shook his head and clutched her hand tighter.
It was then Serenity's eyes lids dropped, her smile released, and the hand Endymion clutched was now a mere lifeless body part. His insides were compressed with an undying shard of pain as he bent down to give his beloved a final kiss goodbye.
She disintegrated into a transparent mist and wafted through the glass doors of the balcony and glistened under the radiance of the sun as she dispersed into the atmosphere.
He had officially lost her. He got up and took the leg of a nearby desk and crushed the object into merciful pieces. He vowed to himself he will kill Giopiana and make her suffer the way she had made Serenity suffer.
He turned to see the innocent pink haired infant that lay on his bed breathing steadily and gently. He knelt down beside her and stroked her hair.
Ever since that very day, Rini was the sole reason Endymion kept himself alive.
