Leia lay on the grass next to Shawn underneath a milk-filled sky. "Sometimes I like to pretend I can reach up and touch the stars." She stretched her whimsical hand up towards the night sky as a breeze blew through and rustled the surrounding brush. Shawn's thin-rimmed glasses rose when he crinkled his nose, "Do you suppose there are other people staying up like us on different stars?"

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

Okay, that's that, then.
The light coming from the orb was blinding. It seemed to roar, deafeningly loud. Then, a silhouette became visible in the light. Leia shaded her eyes with her hand, the whimsical one grasping Shawn's. His glasses were askew as he struggled to stay afoot on the grassy hill. The light grew and grew, covering their sight with white, and then was gone. The sound had faded to a beautiful, soft song. As Leia and Shawn blinked their eyes to clear them, the figure stepped out of the shell of the fallen star. It was a beautiful young woman of about 14, her resemblance to Leia uncanny. She stepped forward to meet the two, her curly brown hair swirling around her, all the way to her waist. She wore a style of Leovian armor, one of the worlds far away. She had a small lavender cloak trailing from her delicate shoulders, the indigo armor she wore light, not a full suit. She was beautiful. Leia gasped as the figure d figure drew nearer. "Selene," she whispered. "My sister."

I hope I'm not messing up the story. 

 

Selene smiled gently. "I'm sorry, I don't know you, but we're all sisters one way or another, I suppose."

Leia felt as if the world was wobbling in circles like it does when you're dizzy. "Selene." she gasped again, as if saying the name would keep her sister by her side forever.

Shawn grabbed her shoulder. "Leia, breathe", he said, trying to hide his own panic.

The light from the impact was dimming, but Selene was still radiant in her beauty.  She walked towards the two lying on the ground and knelt down besides them. “I have learned a little from the Mistress, even though I haven’t lived long in her house. I will sing the night song. Perhaps it will calm you”, she half whispered.

“But you’re my sister!” Leia screamed, suddenly angry“You like loud happy songs and you learn things for yourself, not from a mistress! You always do everything yourself! You didn’t even say where you were going the day you left!” She wanted run down the hill. Run anywhere. She managed to stand, but only stumbled a few feet before she tripped on the uneven ground and fell on her face. Selene tried to go after her, but Shawn pulled her down again. He knew just how Leia felt. Sometimes, he just wanted to run away from everything.

Selene felt her eyes moisten. She didn’t know why, but she wanted the younger girl to be happy. Maybe they really were sisters.

Two+ things.

1. Selene is the younger sister.
2. They do actually know each other.
3. I don't really understand Leia's temper tantrum, you should've read the previous posts if you haven't been following the thread to get an idea of our constructed personalities for the characters.

Just to preface: Sorry if i'm butting in.

Would I be allowed to write parts of this story? I started reading it and was completely hooked by entry 3. Thumbs up.

:shakes head sadly: I'm sorry, but this is best left alone. It's dead. . . [/b] Please leave it alone. [/b]

 

Why do you say that, Scylla? The rules at the top say:

1. Carry on with the same or different characters.

2. Add on events. 

So I'd say anyone is welcome to join.
