The Moon & its Shadows

Prologue

Everybody to your positions, she’s coming!

All twenty-thousand people male and female stood into their lines. A very shiny, bright light appeared, slowly coming down from the night sky. The Goddess was coming down again as she always did on every 21st of December. All Angels, humans & Elves bowed down as she descended onto the luminous crystal throne that had been built especially for her.

 Her hair so blond and shiny...

 Her skin so pale white...

 Her lips so red & watery...

 Her body so smooth & fragile...

 She came down giving all her people a welcoming nod, making all of them look so special and important to her.

 “Good night my fellow Childs & bring out the light from the moon tonight.”

 Everybody cheered... the girls clapped, the little boys danced and the mothers and fathers nodded in appreciation & smiled out of great happiness. The audience then shifted opening up a passage in the middle, letting all the strong female & male warriors come through. There were more than a thousand of them all walking in a straight line ready to be in service for the Goddess. They were willing to put their whole lives in either danger & risk or happiness just for their loved Goddess.

 “Open up your hearts full of love, & take out the soul of trust!”

 The Goddess put her two hands together making them face the moon. The moons shiny light brightened the dark sky sending wonderful twilights in the night.

 “Oh light from the night; choose the best one from all of them that would be able to last for the rest of my life.”

 The best male and female warrior was going to get chosen, ready to risk their lives for their faithful Goddess. An amazing gleaming light appeared from the Goddesses palms, she was forming all her powers together just so she would not fail in her decision. The light was in a shape of a spectacular crystal, so glamorous and powerful... she spread her two arms wide open on her sides and looked at the night sky. Her light enclosed around her making her glow a pink dazzling colour. Her eyes changed colour from a soft ocean blue to a strong violet attracting all the warriors. The powerful light spread and sent a wonderful multicoloured sparkle onto all the warriors present. They all bowed down to the Goddess in respect ... everyone expressing their full love and how desperate they were to be the one chosen to stay with the Goddess forever... except for ONE..!

 This got the attention of all the warriors, the Goddess turned to her side and looked at what was causing such commotion. Her eyes narrowed observing who that person was although she could not yet identify who it was. She descended from her throne, her transparent dress flying with the air, her lose hair catching the wind from the East. She carried on walking in a graceful manner, her two arms side by side in line with her hips. The warriors of both genders created a passage again for her to go through so she could reach the... man.

 He was very tall; he had long spiky brown hair, he was very broad & he had a very smooth skin with hazel eyes. The Goddess stopped on the spot....shocked at who was standing in front of her.

 “F-R-A-N-K-I-E!” her eyes wide open as she mentioned his name.

 “Bella.” They both stood there and observed each other for a while.

 Her eyes watered all of a sudden. She immediately turned and backed away from him.

 She stopped.

 “Return to where you came from Frankie.”

 He interrupted immediately, all warriors surrounded him, and others held him in place stopping him from going any further near the Goddess.
