The woman wore a blue gown and a cape that covered the crown on her head. ( a/n: like a hooded jacket, but lighter) The woman had black hair and blue eyes. (a/n: must be where Darien gets his good looks from.) "Yes, my son.....It is been so long....I missed you so much.," states the woman as tears continue to stream down her face. Darien then runs over to the door. He then pauses for a minute just to make sure that this is not a dream. Then her hugs her tightly and closes his eyes and lets the tears flow. (a/n: sad huh? Well remember Darien probably did not see his parents before he left for the moon to protect Serena and her kingdom.) "Hush my son, I am here. Mothers here. You look the same as you did when I last saw you.," whispers his mother as she gently strokes her fingers through his hair. Serena just stands back and watches the two reunited. She practically has tears in her eyes to see how happy Darien is. "Mother, you remember Serena...don't you?," asks Darien as he dries his eyes and looks at Serena. "Yes, I remember. She was the Princess of the Moon. If only Beryl had not attacked. You two were the hope of the future. With your powers combined, you would have ruled the Universe without any trouble.," states Darien's mother as she smiles at the two and dries her eyes as well. "Oh, how rude of me....Serena my name is Queen Lalyia. I don't think that we met more than a couple times, the way things were and all.," states the queen. "Mother, how is it that you are here? I thought that everyone on the Earth was killed. Were you sent my Queen Serenity also?," asks Darien still bewildered. "No, your father and I looked everywhere for you. We had no choice but to abandon our kingdom. As we were fleeing the country, we were found my Setsuna, the guardian of time. She told your father and I that in order to balance the scale of time that we would have to with her. We have been living in another relm. your father and myself rule there, it is like the past, Earth is one country, the people are kind and obey your father and I but.... "But what? Mother? What is it?," asks Darien quite surprised that she stopped. "Darien, well Endymion as I always called you.... "Mom! You know that I hated to be called by my real name.," interrupts Darien looking at her with a crooked smile on his face. "I know, anyway....the reason why I am here is because....I have been searching for you for so long. Setsuna told me that she had seen you in another time and place. Your father and I were thrilled, we both wondered how this could be, then Setsuna told me of the story that took place on the Moon. Ever since then we have been looking for you....but now...your father is very ill....We are not sure that he will live.....my son, I know this might be hard for you to grasp....and I know that it is all happening so fast....but I need you to stand by my side and come back with me to claim your birthright.," states Queen Lalyia as she lowers her head and lets the tears fall. "What? How can this be? My life is here, at this time and place.," states Darien as he looks at Serena and back to his mother. "My son, I must go now....I cannot sustain myself much longer in this relm...but I will be back and then we will talk again...I love you.....we will talk telepathically..I promise.," states Laylia as she starts to fade away. "Mother." what did you think? I hope that you liked it. I wanted you to feel how Darien must have felt, I mean for goodness sakes, he probably did not see his family again and then he lost his life and his princess in one day. How would you feel? Sad, I think so.
