Once In A Blue Moon
By: Callista Matthews
Rating: G
The wind is blowing the golden strands of a
young girl who is looking out to the fading sun and
the rising moon.
*The room is empty, and the lights are dim*
One lone tear falls from the azure eyes,
making it's way down her lovely face. Her eyes
show sadness and reminiscing. Unknown to the
girl, a shadow was following her every move. Even
that tear did not escape his intense deep blue gaze.
*And my heart wonders, if I'll ever see you again*
The girl's form suddenly changes from
the blue and white school girl outfit to a long white
and gold gown. Her hair falls from the "meatballs"
she usually kept them in. The princess of long ago
has returned, but her prince was nowhere to be found.
*My tears are hungry for an open door*
=FLASHBACK=
"My prince, I'll love you forever." Princess
Serenity said to her love, Endymion.
"Dark times are upon us princess. I will
do my best. If I don't survive this, please know
that I'll love you forever. When the moon falls
into the sun is when I'll stop loving you. This is
my promise and oath." Endymion gazed into his
true love's eyes, knowing they reflect the feelings
in his own heart.
"Although we're great distances apart,
our love will see us through. Will you really
keep your promise to love me forever?" Serenity
looked up to the lake behind Endymion.
"I promise I'll love you forever and a
day." Endymion replied.
"Me too."
=END OF FLASHBACK=
More tears fell as the moon rose, looking
over its princess for all eternity. Flashbacks from the
past two thousand years passed by her numb mind.
Her heart, trying to deaden the pain by retreating
to her subconscious of memories. The man with
ebony hair was also experiencing the flashbacks.
No matter how far apart they were, those memories
kept them going.
*When your arms held me, I never felt that way before*
=FLASHBACK=
"Darien, please listen to me! Beryl has
poisoned your mind. Darien, she may have you mind,
but your heart belongs to me. You remember, don't
you?" A wounded Sailor Moon begged her lover on
bended knee.
"You are the enemy!" Prince Endymion raised
his sword, ready to slice Sailor Moon in half.
"No I'm not. Look Darien, it's our locket.
Don't destroy it. Remember, it's our locket, the symbol
of everything we shared. All those happy times on the
moon, please don't let her take that away from us,
please Darien. It's me Darien. Princess Serenity. I've
come to set you free again. Just like I promised."
Sailor Moon made this final plea.
"I remember..." Prince Endymion lowered
his weapon to stare at Sailor Moon.
"All you have to do is touch it!" Sailor Moon
presented the star locket.
=END OF FLASHBACK=
The girl's dress changed again. This time,
her dress became a sailor outfit with wings on the
back. Eternal Sailor Moon has reached her highest
power peak. The man just stared in awe of the spectacle.
*And I'll be waiting, and I'll be watching under a blue moon*
The full moon, watching over its mistress,
loomed over the night sky. More memories assailed
both the girl and the man that was hidden in the shadows.
=FLASHBACK=
"I don't think we should get to close." Darien
distanced himself and Serena by pushing her almost
roughly from him.
"Oh I know I'm still pretty young..." Serena
obviously did not get the message, or rather, doesn't want to get the message.
"That's not what I meant. We're through!"
Darien shouted at Serena.
Serena just stood there too traumatized to
even shed a tear. Her tower of strength, her light in
the dark, the prince of her dreams, is saying he
didn't love her anymore.
"But...but you...but you couldn't have
forgotten our past as the prince and princess who
are destined to be together, did you?" Serena's voice,
barely above audible.
"Why should my whole life be directed by
what's happened in the past? Maybe I had a crush on
you back then, but I don't anymore, alright? Read my lips, 'I DON'T LOVE YOU!'" Darien's sarcasm and cold
tone was too much for Serena to handle.
"If...if...if that's how you feel..." Serena's voice almost breaking from the pain tearing her heart in two.
"Of course that's how I feel. Now get out of
here! I don't want to see you anymore. I'll help with
Reenie, still, but that's not because I still care." Darien's cold eyes drilling into her.
"Alright then. Since that's how you feel, goodbye Darien. Have...a good life..." Serena proceeded to walk away, the tears still not coming. The pain and agony was still numbing her senses.
Darien's cold eyes were replaced by sadness.
'I'm sorry...'
=END OF FLASHBACK=
Hot drops of tears continued to fall, the rose
in her clenched hand crumbled and fell to the stone
trail. The girl looked down at the locket she'd been
holding in her hand. One last glance and she threw
it in the lake. The man had no choice but to watch
in devastation.
*A taste of heaven only happens, once in a blue moon*
=FLASHBACK=
Serena went to a ball with her guardians for Valentine's Day. As they entered the dance hall, Serena caught sight of a tall, ebony haired man in a tuxedo. Serena was just about to rush over him to talk when Raye came up from Serena's side to whisper, "Don't go any closer, Serena."
"Why can't I? I have to talk to him." Serena
looked at Raye as though she was crazy.
"Serena...he's here with someone. Another
girl." Raye told her regrettably.
"Wha...?" Serena whirled around just in time
to see Darien dancing and kissing a tall brunette who
was obviously enamored by Darien. Serena was frozen in shock. She wanted to run away, run away from that
scene that tore her heart ever more.
"I guess it really is over..." Serena whispered.
She turned around and ran outside with her Scouts following her. Not before each of them glared at Darien and his date. Unfortunately for Darien, he turned around just in time to catch the glares and silent messages each Scout sent him. He was in BIG trouble...
=END OF FLASHBACK=
*Do you remember, when the wind blew free? We fit
together so naturally*
The lake shimmered from the moonbeams that bounced off the surface. The wind howled, the leaves shook, silence stretched on and on. Serena stopped looking at the moon and proceeded to walk away. Darien still watched her, knowing she thought he never loved her, no longer cared.
"Forever and a day, princess."
*And I'll be waiting, and I'll be watching. Under a blue moon. Taste of heaven, only happens, once in a blue moon...*
Well, what do ya think??? Comments are always
