“NO!” Endymion screamed. “This can’t be happening. She was well just a while ago! What happened?” he asked.

“I don’t know. I was telling her that she could finally be with you. She smiled at me and all of a sudden, the monitor showed that she was dead.”

Endymion didn’t say anything. He knew it wasn’t the doctor’s fault. There was dead silence, the sound of the never ending beep filled the room.

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP. No matter how much he wanted to stop, it wouldn’t. He walked over to the bed. He took hold of her hand. It was starting to get cold. She was dying. The doctor stood in the corner, helpless. She then decided to try CPR on her. She pushed Endymion out of the way and started performing CPR.

“I’ll tell everyone what’s happened.” Endymion finally said.

“Yes. Do tell everyone. They need to know what’s happened. Bring them all here.”

“I’ll do that. Please doctor, try everything to revive her. I can’t lose her now.”

“I know.”

Endymion left. He ran back to the house. He gave everyone the bad news. When Queen Serenity heard of the news, she began to break down into tears. Everyone rushed to the hospital. Endymion stayed behind awhile. He went to the hiding place, got on his knees and prayed. He picked some beautiful roses, daisies and other flowers for her. He prayed one more time. When he got there, everyone was gathered around her bedside. They were in a (semi) circle, their hands joined. They were praying to the gods, asking her to give back her life. Endymion joined them. Soon, other doctors came into the room. They tried other methods, but nothing worked. Then, another doctor came into the room. He filled Selenity’s mouth with artificial oxygen. Then he closed her mouth tightly. Selenity’s eyes shot open. Everyone was in awe. They thought that it was a miracle. But then, the long beep of the monitor was heard again.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Selenity didn’t make it. It didn’t work, just like all of the other methods tried. Everyone gave up hope. Assuming that nothing could revive her, they all formed a line to give her luck in heaven. Queen Serenity wept heavily. Everyone did. Everyone except Endymion. He kept in the tears. He didn’t give up. He had faith in Selenity. He knew that somehow, she would be revived, and that he would be the one to revive her.

The last person on the line was still talking to Selenity. She talked and talked and talked and talked. She was like a robot. Queen Serenity wanted to talk to Selenity one more time.

“Selenity, my dear. I’ll really miss you. I can’t believe your own cousin, my sister’s daughter, Anna killed you. If she weren’t born, you wouldn’t be in this condition. It’s all your cousin’s fault.”

“How dare you say that, Serenity!” said the Queen of Venus.

“I’m sorry, but I won’t be able to forgive Anna for what she did to my only daughter, the only heir to the Moon Kingdom throne. If I die and the King dies, the moon will be no more. With out the Moon, the whole universe will collapse! Selenity, we need you back!!” Queen Serenity fell to the floor and cried heavily.

Endymion finally approached Selenity. Everyone cleared the way for him. He started talking to her.

“Selenity. Please. You have to hold on. You did it the last time. We got you to the hospital, safe and sound. You stayed with us. You were here with me, with everyone just a while ago. You have to try harder. Hang on! You have to! Selenity! Do you hear me? YOU HAVE TO HANG ON! I won’t let go of you like this. If you leave us, you’ll be missing out on a lot of things.” Endymion took hold of her hand. It was cold like ice. “I won’t be able to marry you, we won’t be able to have a family of our own. We won’t have anything like that. That’s why you have to hang on. For me, for everyone! You mustn’t leave us like this.” Everyone stared at him. “Please Selenity. You have to hang on.” He kissed her cold hands. He lifted her up and gently kissed her. “Don’t leave me now. I don’t our last kiss to be like this. Come on. Come back.” He kissed her once more. A tear fell from his eye and landed on her cheek. Then it happened.
