The Collision: Between Venus and Mars

Queen Valentina

  "Guards!" I called under my breath, as I brutally placed my glass of my glorious drink on the table.

"At your service, Your Majesty."
A few of my guards rushed in at my call.

"Ugh!" I turned my head to face them as I was still breathing heavily with exasperation.
"Have any of you seen my daughter this evening? Anywhere or anytime after this morning?"

"Unfortunately, no, Your Majesty."
"We haven't seen her after she went for self-training today, ma'am."
"I haven't seen her either, My Queen."

"I've asked the servants to look for her. They said she isn't in her room. She isn't seen anywhere in the palace either." I stood up firmly as I voiced out my order.
"Search for my daughter! Search the whole kingdom! Search everywhere! You know the consequences if you fail me."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Now go!"
Soldiers rushed out after hearing my demand. I sighed as I let out my breath heavily. How could she ever go missing? I've sent servants to search for her in the library and also at her training area. Latifah has been with me the whole time, discussing about Vivian's progress. So it shouldn't be her who's responsible for Vivian's disappearance.

"Call her in."
Latifah walked in, "Ma'am, I really have no idea where the princess has gone."

"Calm down, Latifah. I trust you." I stood up from my throne and walked down the throne steps. "I called you here so that you could help me." I paused for a second, "Bring me all her weapons."

Latifah nodded, "I'll be right back, Your Majesty. In ten minutes." She headed out of the room.

I sinked back on my throne, distressed. If Miguel ever dares to hurt my daughter, he'll pay dearly for it!

Prince Marcus

"Marcus!" Levi walked towards me. He stood on my right as he placed his left hand on my left shoulder and gave me a friendly punch on the chest.

"Hey Levi, how's everything going?"

"Everything's great! Except my father wants me to remind you about something.

I've already guessed it right before he could say anything. I know, I know. My father's will is that I, Prince Marcus of Mars, the son of King Miguel, must kill the princess with my own hands. I know Levi is here to remind me that my first chance will be next week. I will take a trip all the way to Venus, AND KILL THAT EVIL HEIR OF THE QUEEN! I will not let my father down. I must do this. I have a few shots. But once if this plan isn't a secret anymore, people on Venus will be more aware, and it wouldn't be easy to kill the princess anymore.

"Marcus, it's about the mission your father have gave you a long time ago. He wants you to kill the princess. Not any other of our men. You will be accompanied by reinforcement to Venus, but YOU MUST kill her with your own hands."

"I know that, Levi. I've been thinking about it almost all the time. I didn't know that time could past by so quickly."

"I just want to remind you. HAVE. NO. MERCY. Women are savage cats. Do not hesitate to kill her."

And with that, I took that in. I took Levi's advice. I'm ready. I will make my father's wish come true. The princess is just like a precious diamond to the Queen. If the Queen lost her, she wouldn't have a heir whose blood is pure enough to continue ruling her kingdom.

Princess Vivian (present)

  This is so strange. I could hear the whispers of the universe. I could see whatever happened before. I can feel my own body on mid-air, floating in my sleep. I don't know when I would wake up. I want to get back to the real world, back into my real consciousness.

  I don't think that was how the war ended. Let me rephrase. I think the explosion hit my head too hard til' I thought I was saved my Marcus.

  Now I remember. I was afraid of him after what he has done to me. I gasped for air. At least now, although it's silence, but there's peace. I'm hoping that I wouldn't wake up until I gather all my courage again to face anything that comes.
