Two Worlds

Serenity\'s eyes were full of tears, her face had already began to turn a light shade of pink. But she didn\'t want her love, well, her ex love to see her this way.

Endymion watched her, walk away slowly, as if nothing had happened. His emotions were so confused that the only thing that came out of his mouth were hurtful lies.

\"GOOD RIDDANCE!! IT WAS ABOUT TIME YOU CAUGHT ON! YOUR BLOOD WAS UN-TASTEFUL AND OF NO WORTHINESS TO MY LIKING!\"

Serenity gasped and started to run through the forest. Her tears flowing behind her. She was crying while running, hardly able to see her way, especially in the dark. Why had he said such things? How could he hurt her so much? Didn\'t he love her? Was it all a lie? A lie to say that he was with the \'moon princess serenity\'...a stupid and blind princess she is! Those words filled her mind as she tried to find her way back home, to her kingdom.

Endymion was left standing in the middle of the forest, alone. He couldn\'t believe what he had yelled to her. Why did he do it? Maybe them not being together would be for the best? He looked around himself, nothing but the forest and the darkness. Memories of Serenity came rushing to his mind. He fell to his knees, arched his back out and spread his arms openly.

\"AAAAAAHH!!!!!!\"

He yelled in pain. His first and only love had gone, ran away from him. That was something he couldn\'t bare.
The yell echoed through out the forest, it was loud enough to reach serenity\'s ears. Serenity, while running, looked back.
\"Endymion....\"

By the time she faced her way again, she accidently tripped over a tree stump.
She gasped as she fell. She was running so fast that she practically flew down to the ground. She closed her eyes as she hit the rough soil. When she opened them, she felt a bit of pain, here and there. She had small cuts and scrapes on her arms and legs. Her dress was ruined with small tears and blotches of dirt.

\"Oww...\"

Serenity wanted to cry, but held it in. It wouldn\'t do any good if she cried.
She slowly picked herself up and walked away. For a split second, she thought she was lost. What if she went the wrong way, I mean, its not like she could see exactly where she was going, she was crying by the way. Then she saw a distant light.

\"I know that light!\"

It was the light of the Forest Look Out. Guards would go up there on shifts, to make sure that no vampires tried to sneek in their kingdom, or the palace. Serenity ran as fast as she could towards the Look Out. Then a blinding light engulfed her. She stopped running immediately and covered her eyes with her arms. One of the guards yelled out from the top of the Look Out.

\"Who goes there?! What creature descends to our kingdom?!\"

Serenity put her arms down and tried to look up, noticing the guard.

\"I am the Moon Princess Serenity! Let me in!\"

The guard put the light out and put on a smaller one, with less energy.

\"Princess?! Princess!! It is the Queen\'s daughter, Princess Serenity! Open the gate!\"

Serenity was relieved to hear him say those words. She couldn\'t wait to just get to her room and be alone.

The large gate opened, she realized she had ran to the back gate of the palace. It\'s a good thing she went there instead of the front gate. The whole kingdom could\'ve seen her!

Her palace servants bowed as she walked in. All had a face of pity, for she was practically in rags, cuts and scrapes. She looked like a poor driven animal from the forest. The gate closed, and serenity stood in one of the many palace gardens. She looked around and saw her servants faces. She ordered them to leave as she sat down on one of the marble benches next to the water fountain. She didn\'t think it was much use, but she rinsed her face of the dirt, and gave a big sigh. A woman came rushing out from the inside of the palace and gave serenity a sorrowful look. She had black wavy hair that went to her waist. She had four wrapped balls of hair on her head, two on each side, the rest covered her to her waist. She was a little tall, and had a black dress which was over covered by a smaller yellow one. The dress went to her knees and she was white complected. She wore yellow heels with black straps on the back. She had orange eyes and looked as though she was in her thirties. She too had a cresent moon on her forehead. She walked up to Serenity and stood above her.

\"Well, the rebellious princess decides to enlighten us with her presence.\"

\"Not now, I\'m really tired.\"

The woman crossed her arms and gave her a grin. Serenity grinned back at her.

\"Well?\"

\"Luna...if only you knew what I just went through, you would be amazed.\"

\"I bet I would. But until then, save it. Your mother wants to see you.\"

Serenity got up in a panic stage.

\"NOW!? SHE WANTS TO SEE ME NOW?! LOOK AT ME!!\"

Luna grabbed her by the shoulder\'s, trying to calm her down.

\"Well, not now! After you bathe yourself and put on something more...suitable.\"

Serenity gave a big, \"whew\", and followed Luna to her room.

Meanwhile back in the forest, Endymion still knelt on the ground. He was deep in thought. All he could think about was Princess Serenity. His princess, the one whom he loved, and she loved him in return. It was all his fault. If he hadn\'t of told her to meet her here, the whole thing, it would have never happened. She would still be in his arms, her warm body, against his...cold one. The sound of her heartbeat, faster every time he got close to her. The way he could sense that she was nervous, or embarrassed or scared. The way she would get mad if he read her thoughts. Tears started building up in his eyes. The thought of them actually getting married. Her words still haunted him : I want to marry you! No one else! Do you hear me?! No one!!: He didn\'t know what to do. How would he be able to live without her? He couldn\'t stand to be without her. There were days, where he would stay awake all day, waiting for the sun to set, just so he can dash to her, to be with her. Even this one time, when he stayed with her at her castle secretly, he stayed with her until moments before sunrise. How he made it back home? He doesn\'t know, but he made it. She was his motivation, to go on, so that he could see her another night. He once paid off a human artist, gave him all that he would need to paint the princess. Oh how beautiful she was! Especially during the day. But all that was gone now. All he could do was try and move on. He is Prince of Dark, heir to his vampiric people. He must move on, for them. Even though the lunarians thought ill of them, he didn\'t care. They are his people, and if they must fight to win respect, then so be it! Even if Serenity never thought anything of them. She has of kind heart, and is more loving than any other creature he\'s known. She wasn\'t even scared of him when they first met. But she\'s not with him anymore, so what\'s the point?

\"I\'m not giving up on you so easily, princess.\"

There was at least an hour left till daylight, he could dash to her castle in five minutes, find her, read her thoughts, and dash back to his castle in fifteen minutes.(vampires are known to run as fast as the blink of an eye, both kingdoms are very much far apart.) Though it would probably take an additional 10 minutes to read her mind, that is, if he wanted to know some \"believable\" information.

Endymion was now beginning to wonder if he should actually go through with it. I mean, she didn\'t want him to go looking for her, she made it obvious. The question roamed in his mind.

\"Princess, I\'m coming for you.\"

After saying that, Endymion dashed towards the Moon Kingdom.
