Once upon a December
Relena dusted off the blue amulet she held in her hand. It had a thin gold chain that slid nicely around Relena's neck; it was breath taking. Apparently the passer-by had not discovered the priceless artifact. She was thankful that it was not discovered. It was the first thing she had received from her blurry past. It had seemed to call to her, leading her into this new place. Once on, it felt as if it was letting her remember a magical part of her past.
Relena looked around at her new surroundings. She was in on the second floor of the old palace, at least was left of the palace. She was in a ballroom that had not been harmed by the attaches. Large portraits of happy couples lined the walls. They all ware ball gowns that made them look like royalty. She closed her eyes trying to remember it from her past, but failed.
Relena wished she could forget the trouble this day had brought between herself, and her brother, Millardo. She took a deep breath remembering why she had come this way in the first place. She never normally came to the old palace but she and Millardo had been arguing about her safety once again. She knew it was because he loved her, that he insisted a bodyguard be with her all the time, but she still did not like someone with her 24/7. Especially, Wufei Chang. He was a dear friend but annoyingly rude to work with. She hated being wrong, and with him, she always was wrong, and she always was to weak for him to give a dame about. It was hard to concentrate with him always looking over her shoulder and criticizing her. Relena smiled to herself, 'but that I left behind me when I came here...'
She dreamily looked at the amulet, humming a song that she was slowly remembering from her past. It was pleasant and Relena felt better just humming it softly. Relena could feel deep within her that something else was re-awakened. She smiled coyly at herself. She twinkled her fingers as little speck of silver light fell from them. As the specks started so did a magical melody. I was beautiful as it filled the room and surrounded her. It belonged to the song she was humming in her mind.
Relena's mind seemed to melt away as the melody grew and took over her body. She hummed it louder. All the words to the song drifted into her mind and filled the air. Relena dreamily sang the song that seemed to have enveloped her.
"Dancing bears, painted wings, things I almost remember, and a song someone sings, once upon a December," She slowly opened her hands reaching out and in the center of the ball room twirled around as the warmth comfort her.
"Someone holds me safe and warm, horses prance through a silver storm, figures dancing gracefully across my memories," Relena shot the portraits a daring look and like magic they came to life. The couples waltzed their way to the floor Relena was on, dancing happily to the music. Relena looked dreamily at the couples. They looked so happy; she wanted to be happy too. She looked at her dress in slight disgust. She taped her finger against it and as if paint drifting across its canvas it painted her in a blue gown that matched her amulet. Her beauty stuck out as her partner picked up her hand to lead her way, but she did not wish to leave yet and picked up his other hand. She never once looked up into his eyes. Her eyelids were to heave and denied her vision at the moment. Instead she lean her head on his shoulder humming her song. A small circle opened up and they were given room to dance. The guest around her joined into her song singing a deep background melody of joined Awaaawaa's. Giving her song a hunting feeling. The music got fasters as it now seemed like a symphony had joined in to the song. As Relena began to sing again the others stopped waiting for her to continue.
"Someone holds me safe and warm, horses prance through a silver storm," Relena repeated, rapping her arms around her partner. He seemed to shelter her from any harm that may come her way. She sang as she hugged him lovingly, he held her smaller body closer, as the other dancers started to dance again.
"Figures dancing gracefully across my memory," The dancers once again joined in as Relena sang on. "Far away long ago glowing dimming as an ember, thing my heart use to know, things it yearns to remember," The music softened to a lone flute, the only one left singing with Relena. " And a song someone sinnnnggggss once upon a December." Relena parted from her partner not wanting to see him return to his frame, as the others did. The music finished as it had started with the twinkling notes. Relena placed her hand on the old window that looked over the old palace garden. "Once upon a deceemmbeerrr." She smiled to herself and looked once again at her fingers as the silver continued to sparkle around. "Hmm" She laughs to herself. "I've still got the magic," She smiled.
"About that," came a familiar male voice from behind her. Relena whirled around to find Heero Yuy standing there.
"Heero," Relena was speechless. 'Oh no, how long has he been there, when did he get here, why is he here, what did he see?' Relena's thoughts panicked as she tried to think of a good excuse.
"This will be good right?" He asked a little shocked to what had just happened. It was magic in his mind.
The End?
