You'll Never Guess What We Found....or Did You Already?

A few hours ago, after exploring this magical cave that I already knew about (I was just showing it to those who haven't seen it), we suddenly came upon a couple things. First, there was this note to Chrissie. Guess who it was from? Renee! It said something close to this (It wasn't short enough to remember the exact words, and Chrissie has it and she's not here at the moment, so I'll just summarize it in a easy to read fashion)

My Dear Sister Chrissie,
If you wonder where I am, just look inside your self. Read the pale pink scroll out loud and hold tight to your pendant. But only do this around midnight, or it won't work. I'm going to Pyrite, but I can't tell you exactly where going to be. I hope to see you soon,
Sincerly,
Renee

P.S. The other not-pink scroll is for Serallina. It's a little legend I found that I think she might be interested in.

(She had twice as much in that letter, but that's what I comprehended when Chrissie read it)

Chrissie's scroll had this spell on it. I'm not used to using spells. I never really said a rhyme to get my magic to work, so this reminds me on that TV show I used to watch called Charmed. Yeah, but we don't have a book of Shadows.

I think it said something like this:

Under the light of the stars,
And the moons all above,
The waters of the oceans,
The ice of the northern seas,
From the place where I am now,
Bring me to where I want to be,
Bring me to (insert name of person or place, in this case, we would insert "Where Renee is")

Yeah...something like that.

The scroll she gave me? It's white and delicate. It looks old.
When I first unrolled it, it was blank. Them my Amulet lit up the color blue, and some silver writing appears on the page.
In fancy scroll-writing, it said:

The Origin of Angels in Earth's History, The Truth of the Legend

(I was glad it was in English,
but why was it talking about
Earth, I don't know?)
Then another thing appeared
and disapeared a minute later,
bare with my spelling error:

The truth,

The reason,

The past reveiled

To unveil it,

Use truth's magic, itself.

What does that mean? What is the magic of truth? What kind of a riddle is this? Why the heck does Chrissie's sister have to be so mysterious? Why couldn't she have just given me something I can flat-out read right away? Maybe I don't even want to read some dumb legend! Why bother with it? Do I really need it? Is there something about the past or my past I should know? This doesn't sound war-of-darkness related. It said something about Earth in the Title, and some people on Earth believe in angels, like they believe in the great Creator named God. But I know this is the legend, it's a way to get to the legend though. It's just too Harry Potter-ish to me. You know? I like magic. But what's up with that?

~*Star*~

P.S. I changed the text under the blog title because it was in need of an update. It said we had 7, well now we have 14! It's crazy!

And something more...

Right now we are back on the surface of Crystaralight. I know, I forgot to mention that. Well, for the last few days, we have been, anyway. We're going to try this cave near by. I've been there before. Chrissie senses something Renee-ish there. We'll go see.
In the mean time, enjoy this piece of art!

Yaaaaaaayz!

We're finally at Twelve Crystal Springs! And Gah-d, am I excited!
The Twelve Crystal Springs looks amazing. There are twelve huge upright crystals, in shades of violet, and ice-blue, and silver. They surround a small pool of water, like a rockpool only really deep, and there's a really tiny waterfall that runs into it. We think that the crystals get their magic from the pool, and then they release magic into Arctica. I've also got a feeling that it's the source of Arctica's magic, because I am the princess of Arctica (and Renee) and my magic is really strong here. So we've got many suspicions.
Plus, I saw Andrea is infecting the crystals with dark magic. Which isn't so great. -_-
Which was my reason for kicking her in the head and knocking her out last night.
XDDDD
It was so cool! Like a movie stunt! You should have seen it!!!!!! Dan had his hands in the air, palms up, and I did a flip, landed with my hands on his palms, and then did a quick hop on my hands, and shot towards Andrea, my leg outstretched! And I just knocked her to the ground and she was just lying there!!!!
I know it's not Andrea's fault, but I just can't have her infecting Arctica with evil! No way! We had to stop her. So now hopefully she won't do it again. She woke up earlier but fainted again, so I poured a tiny bit of the water from the pool onto her. Hopefully it'll heal her and maybe make her good again!
Okay, so Renee hasn't shown up yet. Uggh. I'm tired of waiting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No hard feelings, Renee, but please turn up soon!
Hehe. I'm impatient. But whatevs. XDDD
I hope she does turn up, otherwise we'll have to go to Pyrite....Pyrite scares me! I've always been a little scared of fire, so Pyrite's going to be horrible for me. So please, Renee, show up! I don't wanna have to go to a world of fire!
Plus we haven't seen Aura's flock yet either. They said they were nearly here. I can sense them, we can all sense them. But I just can't see them. I sure hope they're okay!
OK, that's basically all the news at the moment.
Buh-bye!! xox
Chrissie xx

We are at 12 Crystal Springs as I type and it's warmer here...

Warm enough to defrost you hands and move enough so you can enjoy yourself! I even got some drawing done. My laptop's also mioving a bit fast (before we got here.....just kept freezing on me) and my camera is sorta working....but I have a low battery. So I drew/made some cool pictures.

This was suposed to be a self-portraite



Some anime magic sketch! (rough drawings...)


A picture on my magical form and the starlight symbol. Best I could do. The coloring's kinda bad....my pencils are going bad.



This is a black and white drawing depicting Dan as my hero and warrior! :P


...Breathless... Logo (a new one)



I have a ton of IMVU picts....they're at my website: http://www.freewebs.com/starwinx/ (feature picts) I have a lot more art there.



So....About 12 crystal springs...I see 12 different blue/violet shades of crystals surrounding putruding around a hot spring that's in a odd shape. It's big. It's warm and humid. A big improvement from the tundra and glaciers and mountains we've seen. I think Chrissie would be happy to explain more.

~*Star*

We are almost to 12 Crystal Springs, Arctica

And in my freetime I decide to post the emails I get from Aura's gang.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~White is luna, red is aura. diego is orange. blue is me.

Aura:
You can get there through the Maze of Ashes, the entrance to which is in the north east quarter of Garner. The maze starts in a massive, circular room, with ten passageways leading of from it. One of the passages has this inscription over the top of it:
Peace can bring War,Justice can bring Crime,Love can bring Hatred,And Truth can bring Lies.As Good can come of Evil, Darkness can be born of Light.But while each can succeed the other, they can never be one.Truth cannot be Crime,Peace cannot be Lies,Justice cannot be War,As Love can never be truly Evil.
Which is, you know, weird, but under that it has seven jewels, one ruby and six diamonds. Much easier to remember.
But there is another way. Follow the Luminacht, a river that flows into the lake from outside.I think if its no dice in Arctica, we at least will take that way. You can tell the Luminacht from other rivers because the water looks black, but if you hold some in your hand it's clear.
We'll see you in Arctica then (hopefully). I hope Chrissie finds Renee.
Me too. So I can have a word with her. "Kid with too much responsibility on her shoulders" ? I AM NOT! I am moody in my own right, thank you very much. So NYEH!

AURA! Renee could be captured by some evil person and be being tortured right now! Why are you being so MEAN?

I have a migraine. Tynan and Mark have disappeared off the face of the planet for the last few days, in case you hadn't noticed. Or are you to busy making out with my brother to notice?

AURA!!!!! SHUT UP!!!!!!!!

Make me. LUNA AND APOLLO, SITTING IN A TREE, K-I-S-S-I-N-G

I SAID SHUT UP!!!! Of course I care about Mark and Tynan, it doesn't mean you have to be mean to Re
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight Luna. Its got nothing to do with ARGH STOP PULLING MY HAIR!!!!!!!! Alright, I'm sending it.
what?

Star, just ignore what Aura says, she's being immature.

That's an interesting poem....hmmm. Well look for the river. Luna and Apollo? lol...

STAR!!!!!!!! IT'S NOT FUNNY!!!!!!!!!!

Look who's being immature now }:-) Anyway, we're in Arctica now (Arctica, must remember how to spell that.) We got here as soon as Tynan and Mark got back. How far are you guys from the Twelve Crystal Spring? It is way to cold here, I can actually feel it. Mark put a snowball down the back of Lori's shirt and now she's trying to kill him :P They're funny to watch. Anyway, if she (Renee) is not there then we'll head straight to Pyrite. The Luminacht is pretty big, you can't miss it.
Aura

Lori trying to kill Mark, on the other hand, is very funny. See you,
Luna

What's not funny? Everything is funny from some perspective. Anyway. We have no clue how far we are. You actually thought we had a map? No. We're going by Chissie's senses. She know it when we get there. I believe we are close. I've been have a funny time with using the snow. I light-purified the snow into pure water a couple times. Just to refill my water bottle. More than a couple times actually....like 12.

She means her "relationship" with Apollo, which is romantic *shudders* to her but hilarious to everyone else. No, I didn't think you had a map. We sure don't :P

Are they even close in age? lol....age doesn't matter when it comes to love......or does it?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don't worry, Luna's okay. Just very annoyed at Aura. This is me and Aura's shared address, by the way. You were wondering why I called myself Drake, instead of Diego? Well, its our last name. But technically, I was called Drake at birth but the orphanage renamed me and used my name for our last name. On that note, our "earth names" are:
Lucinda Eleanor Drake
Andrea Samantha Drake
Aurelie Drake
Marcus Diego Drake
Arthur A. Drake (A. standing for Apollo, which is legally his middle name. He didn't use it much, before we found out. Who would?)
Amber Drake
So there you go. Be warned, if you call Aura Aurelie she'll practically burn your wings off (I know from experience. Don't try it), and Samantha never went down well with Andrea either, but seeing as she has memory loss now, I don't think she'd know you were addressing her (relief teachers used to call her Samantha, or Andrea Samantha, by accident. Six relief teachers refused to work at our school while she was there after their experiences) so you'd probably escape unscathed. No guarantees though :P
Bye,
Diego

Interesting. And Andrea never mentioned the Smantha part. Either because she hates it, or forgot it. The Drake part she never mentioned either. So what's luna's full name or earth name or whatever? And the other ones that are with you, like the non-pyrite/fire powered ones. Whoever else. I forgot who's with you guy or was with you. I here you're missing a few people. Some one named Mark? And Tynan who is like related to Tempest or something? That was in our cbox. Do you guys still have a blog? A new one, or old one. One that you still update?Well happy Easter anyway. (even if it's not much of a holiday here) Happy spring??? lol. Snow is everywhere still. That's Arctica for you. In Crystaralight it was spring a mounth ago.~*Star*

Luna says her name was Luna Selene, because the people at the orphanage she ended up at only knew her first name and Selene is the greek goddess of the moon, so they gave her that for her last name. She got adopted by agents of evil when she was seven, or something, then escaped with us. Lori is Lorelei Harrison-Davies, the last name being of the normal earth people she was originally adopted by. Tempest, Taima, Tynan, Mark, and Elli never lived on earth, like, temporary permanently, so, hence, no earth names.Here's a list of us:

Aura
Diego
Apollo
Amber
Lucy
Luna
Lori
Mark
Tynan
Taima
Tempest

No, we don't still have a blog. To busy to make a new one and to keep it going. Also, some can be tracked.Happy Easter to you guys too (a bit late I'm afraid, but I'll say it anyway). How's Andrea? I haven't seen her in a long, long, long, long, long, long time. And now she's evil. Amazing how people change, though Aura reckons she was always evil (she's joking. Mostly)
Well, see you,

Nice...Andrea? She's coming along! Starting to get better....I bet in a month she won't be evil anymore. Give her 2 months. lol. Not sure.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After reading the Aura and Luna part, I cracked up cause it was crazy. Whatever.

~*Star*

(posting whatever she thinks she should)

MR4 and 12 Crystal Springs vs. Night Lake, Pyrite

So me and Arella used my teleportation crystal that I found a while back to go back to a Target store (on Earth) for a very short period of time. Maximum Ride: The Final Warning, by James Patterson (MR4) only costed $14 plus tax. Can't wait to read it. But we're kinda busy right now. We went to the last Target we visited, and no one recognized us at all, of course. We stocked up on some snacks. It was a Super Target actually. They had samples! We ate them, mostly. I was so happy to have Earth Food again.
Twelve Crystal Springs vs. Night Lake in Pyrite
What do you think? The both sound oddly familiar. Aura knows about Night Lake. Chrissie thinks that Renee will meet us in 12 Crystal Springs, in Arctica. We just have to find it. If we have no luck there, then Night Lake on Pyrite, I guess. We'll see.

~*Star*

Renee's Email? Luna and Aura emailed this...

Luna sent me this:



Did you get that weird email from Renee? It ended up in my spam folder, so I checked and there it was. We are checking out what it says to do. Maybe Twelve Crystal spring was some kind of code....

Night....
Lake.....
Pyrite.
Night Lake, Pyrite!

Aura says that's some seriously dangerous place on Pyrite/Garner, where there's a crater that fills up with navy blue, near black water, and where an Artican princess was killed by a Pyritian/Garnian commoner (a girl) because, ages ago, the two moons were trying to make amends by betrothing the Pyritian/Garnian prince to said Artican princess, except the Pyritian/Garnian prince already had a girlfriend, said Pyritian/Garnian commoner girl, and she lost her temper because he had to go with the princess or risk causing a war, so she lured her down there and stabbed her with a diamond edged knife. So the princess fell into the lake, and its waters turned that near black blue, and seven ice blue diamond pillars grew forth from the lake, but you can only seen the tips of them from the surface. So, to prevent a war, the Pyritian girl had to be executed, and the prince went mad with grief and chucked himself into the lake, and one of the pillars pierced his body through the heart, and had been pure, blood red ever since.
Aura is now talking about how the blood of the girl was drained from her executed body (I'm sorry, but gross), but I'm not listening. It's too sad. I mean, it wouldn't be that bad, except this actually happened. Why Renee would want to meet there is beyond me. I mean, it's where one of her ancestors died. Not generally on one's top ten list of meeting places.

Aura here. I think that /\ is the point. No one would think to look there. I've been there once before. It's not an evil place, just quiet, peaceful maybe. And sad. What I was talking about with the blood of the girl is that someone, no-one knows who, drained her blood out of her body, and turned it into this crystal charm that is said to be true love in solid form. But it was lost, forever. Which is way depressing (and kind of gross, with the blood thing.). True love, lost forever. Of course, no one knows if the charm ever existed (the stories part of the history books though. It's real all right), like no-one knows if true love ever existed. Isn't that a depressing thought? But did Renee want you to go there? Or did someone else? Nevertheless, I think we should keep this in emails. If Renee wanted us to go to this place, she'd probably want us to keep it quiet.

I don't like that story. I wish Aura hadn't told it to us. It creeped me out. Anyway, What are you guys gonna do? Go to Artica, or Pyrite? Either way, its dodgy.

Luna



Here's Renee's email. It was in the spam folder:

Search on Wikipedia:

Twelve (number) look at: William Shakespeare (Theatre; comedy)

Spring (hydrosphere) Look at: See also (last dot point)

Crystal Look at: "Quartz" or "Rock crystal" and the link right after it.

One of you will figure it out. But act fast. Or you are all doomed.

Renee



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CRUD!!!! I don't get it!!!! That was too confusing! It wasn't clear. Wikipedia is a terrible source my teachers used to say. I don't know how you all figuered that out....but the part with lake was easy. I didn't relized you guys figuered it out....I thought it was a like to a secret site or something, not a message to were she's located! Lol. I feel dumb.

~*Star*

Aura Found a Letter from Renee

Here's the email we got. I'm showing it to Chissie, but posting it here to save it.

Aura Dylexia

Better now. Sorry about breaking off.

Anyway, the note says:
Chrissie,
I'm sorry I wasn't there to meet you, I was... delayed. Hoping you could give me another chance, I'll meet you at the Twelve Crystal Spring in Arctica. Stay safe,
Renee

I don't know if its fake or what, but I'm not sure you should tell Chrissie, because it could easily be fake, and ... well, trying to be nicer to her and all, getting her hopes up about it isn't the nicest thing to do. Personally, I'm betting a 90 to 95 percent chance its fake. But we decided to tell you about it anyway. You decide if you should tell Chrissie.
See you whenever,
Aura



So, what do you think? Should we go? I think Rose found the cure for Amaya a little while ago. She picked up a pink orchid, grinded it up a bit and added water to it. We had to force Amaya to drink it. She seems a bit better now. Maybe by tomorrow we can all fly and be well!

~*Star*

Storm Granade? Who's Idea Was This Anyway?

Aden and Dan were board one day and Aden had this idea. Could they make some sort of magical granade? They're words were: We got this idea to make dark creatures back off! A thunder and Lightning bomb!
And so they made one....and we held on to it. Then one night we were attacked by a couple dark creature (2 Lupines) and they grabbed the bomb and threw it at then as we all retreated.
KABOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Both the wolves are dead. The explosion was hudge, loud and overly powerful and now they made a smaller granade that won't light the whole forest on fire. (Kyana and Rose workeded together to stop the fire)
But the granades were supposed to make it easier, and they were a waste. And I rather use my own magic anyway.

~*Star*

P.S. Spell check doesn't work on the blog anymore for me. What the heck? I can't spell!!!

In (like) a month, I'll be back on Earth!

OMG!!!!! THE FOURTH MAXIMUM RIDE BOOK IS COMING OUT MARCH 17th THIS YEAR!!! I heard it was coming out in Semptember, but that was last year. I HAVE TO GET IT!!!! Look at the not totally retarded new American cover:
We don't think that's Max on the cover. The hair's too light. And it's not Angle cause she's too big and her wings are dark. I heard rumours of a new charater, but I'm not sure.
We've had theries on what's going to happen. *Prays for another mention of Chicago*
Lol....I like the mention of Bill Nye the Science Guy in the chapter 6 preview. I use used to love that show!!!!!
*Sings: Bill Nye he Science Guy...bill bill bill bill.....science rules.....* XD

Well, that's all I have to say. We're still wandering the (bigger than I can remember) Emerald Forests of Lustyria. Suprised how we haven't came upon much more than a few random animals and streems and boring stuff like that. It's still a bit beautiful even after the Darkness took over. We still have the boaring Earth-like days....Rain. Yeah. It's spring here in Febuary.....


~*Star*

BTW, the pict I got from the previous post was from this pict of the new TOTALLY AWESOME cover for MR3.
I like it. I was searching Maximum Ride picts when I found it...

Full Moon Flight

~*Star*

VE ARE OUTDA DERE!!!!!!! (hence the bad german act-cent 4-fun)

We made it out alive with some minor to sever injuries (cuts and bruises to disease)
We're in the great green forest that they called the Emerald forest, hence it's color. (Word of the day: Hence-too apply and suggest something....I think)

I think the other can explain more. I'm not in a mood for specifics, only general. I'm exhasted!

Quote Lorelei (to end all disagreements)
"My sister has the name Elara, but it's not the same girl. Arella's my cousin, I'm not sure how close. Haven't we been through this before?"

(still getting emails from Luna and Lorelei, with my messed up yahoo account)



~*Star*

OHMYGAWD OHMYGAWD OHMYGAWD WE ALL MISSED YOU SO MUCH!!!

HI STAR!! THIS IS CHRISSIE!! EHMAGOD!! I GOT KIDNAPPED! Darkstar says that you used to be in the dungeon too but you escaped. COME GET US!!!
There's a new girl. She says she met you. Her name is Danniielle, Dannii for short. She's really nice! Everybody has been bonding so well, all cooped up in this dungeon. I'm writing this on the laptop Darkstar gave to us. Everyone's screaming 'cuz I'm making a post. :D
Everyone's got so much to say! It's time for the annual quoting!

Me:
HI STAR!!! :D :D *pointz to post* ^^

Arella:
EHMAGAWD STAR!!! I am missing you SO much, and Gail and Aden and currently chasing me and Tara! Get here quick! HELP US!!

Tara:
GAAAAAH GO AWAY ADEN!!! GRRRRRR!!!! GET OFF MY JACKET GAIL!! KEEP AWAY FROM THE BLOOD!! Oh, what Chrissie? Oh! OHMYGAWD HI STAR!!! See you soon! *Tara sends her love!*

Rose:
Oh my god, Sara. PLEASE come help us. Help ME! This is so annoying. GET US OUT OF HERE QUICK! Darkstar's like, chucking us. Come get us while you still have the chance!

Dan:
Hey Star. I'm missing you loads!
(Chrissie: He just blew a kiss, realised what he'd done, and sank away blushing!! XDDD!!)

Sileny:
I'm missing you Star! Come back quickly!

Gail:
Hi Starry! Come get us real quick! See ya soon!

Aden:
We need your help! Come and get us quickly, and help me catch Tara and Arella!

Amaya:
Guuhhhh.....uggggh......
(Chrissie: Amaya's caught some sort of nasty disease. She can barely move. I think some of us are going to have to carry her while we're on the run again, 'cuz she's really sick....)

Kyana:
Star. You have to save us. I am SICK of this place! Come get us quick! And let the OCEAN be with you!! Hehee :D

Skye:
Hey Star. In case you haven't noticed, Darkstar is willing to let us go. Come and get us before we die of pain and boredom! Missing you loads!

Dannii:
Hi Star! I've finally met everyone! THEY'RE SO COOL! I've made really good friends. You should come get us now! XD! I'm kinda bored...right now I'm on my cell phone, texting all my friends. They think I'm on holiday. My signal's running out! Grr! See ya soon Star!

Andrea:
You kids are so childish! I SHALL RULE CRYSTARALIGHT!!!! I shall be princess and Darkstar shall be queen....TOGETHER WE SHALL TAKE OVER YOUR LITTLE DREAMWORLD AND THEN RIP IT FROM THE UNIVERSE!!!
(Chrissie: As you can see, Andrea's still very very very evil. We need to stop her being so ebil! Yet another reason for you to come as fast as you can!)

Now you've had a taste of what everyone's acting like....I want to talk to you about something.
Darkstar was torturing us all. We all have scars. She hurt me bad on my side, I have a huge big scar all down the side of my stomach. Please come so we can get some healing stuff. Amaya was probably hurt the worst, added onto the fact she's sick. So please, please come and collect us. Thank you so much.
See you soon!
Chrissie
(P.S. I noticed in Lorelei's blog that she mentioned her being related to Arella/Elara. For the 100th time, she's not. Arella's getting really peeved that she keeps saying so. So Lori, please stop. BTW, looking forward to talking to you again, Aura and co.!)

Email from Luna

Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2008 13:12:37 +1100
From: "Luna Eclipse" Add Mobile Alert: this.is.the.end.luna@gmail.com
Yahoo! DomainKeys has confirmed that this message was sent by gmail.com. Learn more
To: starshimmer92@yahoo.com
Subject: Re: Hey! This is Star.
Well, were captured now, aren't we? So no one can track us by them. Also, we found out Gmail has an antitracking system which the police once kicked up a huge fuss about We just about lost all contact with everyone. Then we figured out how to make it work here. (We told the boys via Aura and Taima, who have some sort of connection to there twins, like, telepathic or something. So they might be online soon.)
Aura and Apollo... Well, Apollo I think was sad, and angry, but I couldn't be sure because he wouldn't talk to me or anyone else for that matter. Aura shrugged and was like "there's evil in everyone. But there's also good. If you expect me to believe evil's all that's left of my sister, you've got another think coming. Only pawns like you [darkstar was the one who told them] are entirely one thing."
You didn't ask about Lucy, Diego or Amber, but I'll tell you anyway. Diego was totally blank, just looked at her (Darkstar) all smugly and raised an eyebrow like "That's what you think, b##ch." but he didn't say it. Turns out Amber had already been told by Lucy, who'd thought something like this had happenned for quite a while now.
I think so. Maybe. Well, darkstar was like, "The only thing you can be cured by is [funny sounding name I can't remember at the moment. Maybe someone else remembers..]! good luck getting that while your locked in here!" So maybe [funny sounding name I can't remember at the moment. Maybe someone else remembers..] is the thing you heard of.
I want to see you guys too. My mental pictures majorly fuzzy, even though some of you guys have pictures and we don't (sorry bout that, but we don't have a camera).


Most people know, most of the time, what would be the wisest thing to do. But they choose to act otherwise. Or they lack courage.

- Lorelei (I don't miss her because she's sitting right next to me. That's the smartest thing she's ever said. :P I think she must have got it from a book)


Physically we may be captured, but we're a lot more free than [Darkstar]'s ever gonna be.

-Diego (you've got me in a quoting mood now)


Two steps forward and one step back is just one step forward and knowledge of what's ahead of you.

-Lucy


Evil is an abstract concept. You have to understand what's good about you to keep from becoming evil yourself.

- Aura


Those are the best ones I can think of that they've said for the moment. Bye,

Luna

P.S. I can feel him coming too. (Have you noticed how time passes different here? Isn't it strange? In earthtime I've been in here like three days...)

Waiting

I'm hiding out still, and I made if safely out of the maze. No sign of Darkstar still, or anyone. But on the cbox I talked to Luna, Diego (Drake) and they said Tempest is coming and looking for me. Well....he's not here. And I've been board so I searched the Internet for a while and found this:


That's me!!!! When I flew over Fermi Lab near where I lived. It's not some hawk, no it's probably me. And I sat on the roof.
I did this picture on my special paint program a little will ago:


Well, that's the update!

~*Star*

Where is everybody?

I made it back and only the new crystal works as a light. Just an update, not much. I'm searching an empty dark palace and can't seem to find my way. I'm lost. Is this Darkstar's plan? A labyrinth? A maze? I NEED to find them all! The throne belongs to me by birth right! And Aura's still alive...wow.

~*Star*

The Escape

I escaped. And I admit it. It wasn't easy.
But it wasn't the sort of escape I wanted. I'm still alone, and I'm not where I should be. I'm back on Earth. That crystal...it sort of misdirected me. I ended up back where I started, Chicago. Sort of ill-prepared to. It's cold. But hey, I got money still! I stocked up on food.
My magic is still very low, as is the crystal. I can't fly yet and I can't do anything but try to keep warm in the public library here. They thought I was homeless or something, so I got a free jacket and new pants.
In a few days I'll conjure a portal that will take me back to where ever I was...but not in the dungeon. I'm safe now, but not for long. At least I will be for tonight. (They're letting me sleep in some special building, I don't know. They got me food and first-aid too. How come I never got this before I had all my flock and left Chicago?)

Some hit me though. Something strange. I think it's true now....I had a little sister and she thinks she's evil. I'm not talking about Darkstar, who's like me if I was evil....from another dimension. I think this girl's name was Surah....um.......Surahyla or something, maybe? (Not Luna, obviously....unless that's what she prefers...)
In my dream....she....was crying, but then I saw her evil. She was about 10 I think.....probably taken away when my parents conceived her, cause they were already captured. I'm not sure.

P.S. I went to some toystore and I found some doll with Surah's name, and it mentioned my name, Sera and so I went to their site and there's some simular stuff....a bit atleast.



So the Sera doll doesn't have resemblence wingwise much. But the current blondness of my hair, maybe. The Surah doll looks like she's part hawk or something.
(Yeah and the sera looks like a fairy!!!!lol)

It says: Surah, the lost one. Fate separated the sisters Surah and Sera, as one calamitous night Surah fell into the clutches of the princess of darkness.

(darkness=Darkstar, see?\/)

Day ?

No idea how long it's been. Feels like weeks. I kinda haven't used my laptop since the last time I posted....battery saving purposes. I've been sleeping alot. I think my food supply's almost gone. I feel terrible and sore, not to mention, sick. I really hate Darkstar and when I find a way out, I'm gonna kill her. This crystal still hasn't helped much. I think it made the stale bread taste better though...and it gave me a large supply of water.
I really need to find a way out. I'm in skitso-claustaphobia mode now. I HATE THIS!!!!!

Some of my art to brighten up the mood:

A bit of a collection of my favorite things:

This is where I wanna be....

Day Two in Confinement

I'm starving. I did find a plate of stale bread though....but I need more food than that. I do have some candy in my pockets and my water bottle with me. I guess I have to ration everything and wait. Last night my candle burnt out, and I didn't want to run my laptop's battery on over drive.
I remembered the crystal I found the other day. Guess what??? It glows! It's like a miny flash light, which is good since my miny flashlight's battery is dead. This makes my wonder...can it help me use magic in this place? Let's see! I felt a bit of a tingle. Nothing much. But this little crystal helps a bit. And the only way I can stay not-lonely is by chatting on the Internet. Darkstar's still hasn't harassed me on the cbox today. I'm tired, so I'm gonna go back to sleep. I'm glad I still have my stuff with me. Maybe Darkstar has a heart in her body, somewhere. Update you on the progress tomorrow!

Staying positive,

Face to Face

I just woke up like not even an hour ago...and I typed this as fast as I could. Took me like...I'm not sure. But I see Darkstar posted and it says it was at 12:54pm. No idea what time it is, but time moves a bit slower here, it seems.

The following is what happened to me, Star:

I saw a face. I couldn't tell who's face it was, but I knew it was a face. Boy or girl, I didn't know. Just a face. It was dark. The face was a blur. It was expressionless as far as I could see. Then it became clearer. My eyes focusing as the face came closer to me. The outlines of it's features sharper in the darkness. It was a girl's face. But I still didn't know who she was.

I could see hand fumbling around in the darkness, she mumble a few words under her breath. Then I saw a dim light. It became brighter and moved towards me. The face lightened up, letting me see all of the shapes that made it. I could make it all out now. Her expression showed a smile, a very mischievous grin. Her eyes were dark. Her face....I recognized it. I knew who's it was. It was all clear to me now. “Who did you think I was, silly?”

The girl's face was mine. She was me. Her pale skin stood out against the dark walls. She looked almost exactly like me, I guess. Her eyes and hair were much dark though. In this dim light, there wasn't much to tell. She was me. The resemblance was there. But a more, darker side of me.

Was this a dream? A moment ago I would have thought it was. But a moment ago my body was numb. I realized I was wide awake now. This was to real to be a lucid dream. “Who are you?” I asked, still not positive.

“Serallina, Serallina. Tisk, tisk, tisk. I think we all know who I am by now. I think you do.” The girl's grin widened. She was me, my evil opposite, at least.

“Anillares,” I finally said. What did you do with them?” So now we meet, face to face, I thought.

“I think you know the answer to that too, already.” Then she let out a sharp laugh.

“Where are they? Where's Dan?!!!!!” I screamed at her.

“Don't worry, they're no dead, yet.” Another sharp laugh came from her throat and then I wanted to wring her neck.

“You're already dead!” I told her, sound completely irrational that second. I cleared my mind a bit. Then another thought came to my mind. “How did I get here anyway?” I asked, confused.

“Don't you remember? I kidnapped you the same way I kidnapped your little goodie-goodie angel friends and your precious Dan. Oh...that's right! You were half asleep!” So...she knocked me unconscious so I wouldn't wake up right away, right? “Yeah, using magic, I knocked your pretty little head back into dream land,” she said. Did she just....read my mind? I didn't say that out loud.

“I'm in your head,” she said with an evil laugh, again. The words echo inside my mind over and over...and then she disappeared. So much for answers.




But she did leave a note on my laptop. (I'm surprised she didn't confiscate this thing!) It said, “Don't forget to blog about this little meeting we had. In detail. Like it was part of one of those dumb stories you used to write. Oh yeah, and you have absolutely no hope of getting out of that dungeon. And the only food you'll get will be stale bread...if I even decide to feed you. You are weak. And your magic is useless.”



Now I just feel insulted. My stories are not dumb!
And now I'm stuck in a private chamber, the room is only lit by the one little candle she left for my and my laptop screen. Without knowing exactly where I am in her dungeon, probably in some old and ugly castle. Maybe surrounded by sharp rocks, and a moat with blood thirsty paranas, snakes and wolves. And a magical barrier that won't let me use my stupid powers...but letting my inter-dimension Internet connection still work. The room doesn't even have a door. There's only a tiny air vent small enough for a rat. This is solitary confinement to me! I'm not one for claustrophobia.
Trapped in darkness and hopelessness, not knowing where anybody is...This is Star....please help me out of this place!!!!!!
