Celestia’s blood red eyes looked over the bright stars that shone in the ink colored night sky. A dainty smile was on her lips as her eyelids fluttered graciously, her regal atmosphere ever-changing. The Ultimate Gambler was nobody to be messed with; she was called the Queen of Liars for one reason or another. Making her living off conning poor men and women of their money all across Japan, they were fond memories to her, but seemed insanely risky for the average person. She doesn’t just gamble for the rush, the excitement to win and the glorious joy of seeing your opponent crumble before you as you play your trump card. She obviously does it for the money; her dream is to live in a Victorian mansion, after all. With thousands of men dressed up as vampires treating her as their queen. This wasn’t the only way to make her money for that goal—but it was the easiest. And the most convincing. Celestia Ludenberg, the Queen of Liars, Ultimate Gambler, the Gothic Princess of the Underground Gambling Ring in Japan; had one fear. And that fear dominated her life. From the clothes she wore to the way she acted around everyone she knew, her voice, her personality, her everything was controlled by that fear. And what was that fear?

Celestia was afraid of being normal. Yes, she truly was. It’s a very uncommon and strange fear, but Celestia had it, and she hated it. She would stop at nothing. Celestia wanted to be special; out of the ordinary, different from the rest of the plebeians that walked the Earth with nothing to do but fall in love or have children, instead of her. Her who spent her life alone, but spent it fun, gambling and risking her life at 17 just to make extra money to fund her lifelong dream of being a true queen. She was very lonely; it got sad and crippling at times, and sometimes Celestia just felt like giving up. But she only did that when she was alone, as Celestia didn’t just rock the world when she was discovered, but she shone like a beautiful star in the spotlight. Just like the stars I am watching now, she noted to herself. There was only one person she truly cared about.. A certain Ultimate Heir with platinum blonde hair, white rimmed glasses, ocean green eyes and a cold hard stare that just made her happy whenever she spoke to him. She remembers him. Seeing as he’s always so busy as the heir to his parents company, he probably wouldn’t have remembered that time when they were kids. When Celestia was a plain, normal little girl. 
And so was he. And they would stare at the stars together. Celestia remembered that she said to him: “Don’t be worried! If we ever get lost and lose each other, we can just meet up in the stars! The bright lights in the sky!” Celestia usually hated remembering her old life, where she was normal and bland. Usually it disgusted her to remember those times where she had a normal voice, a normal name, and a normal family.

But that memory.. Strangely, that was the only memory she was fond of from her childhood. And since she had seen his face at Hope’s Peak, walking in and noticing he was the first one to speak; she felt her heart explode into a supernova. Some of the ice in her heart had instantly melted away. Stars.. She wished to see the stars with him. 

“ What do you want, plebian? “ 

“ No need to be aggressive. I just wished to ask for a favor.” 

“ … What do you need, Celeste? I’m a little busy and I do not wish to waste my time talking to the likes of yo- “ 

“I wanted to see if we could go watch the stars together. “ 

Her crimson eyes flashed open to see the beautiful and twinkling blobs of gas and dust in the inky black sky. Tiny, far away light houses. And one day he'd find her again and they would be together. Just wait, she thought to herself. I'm going to lead him to me. And we'll find each other, as we are now the beautiful stars we once wished to be.
