Chapter 3: Death of Princess Gabriella

"Lord Angelus." A Bachae spoke. "The sensors have picked up a disabled fighter craft. Of the royal fight."

"Recover it, if possible." He instructed.

In the shuttle a voice spoke to the pilot. "Gabriella AmazonRoyal, House of Rosenberg. You have one last task before you." A woman's ghost appeared before her. "I can take you to your sister. Not as she is now, but as she will be."

"The future?" The Princess asked.

"Her future." Hope confirmed.

"Why?" A one word question.

"She is endangered." Hope answered. "She cannot yet defend herself against the forces of evil."

"Who are you?" Gabriella whispered.

"I am Hope." The woman spoke.

"The one charged with protecting the power." A statement.

"I am she." Hope held out her hand to Gabriella.

Gabriella looked at the ghostly hand.

"The body's time is over." The ghost stated. "To protect your sister you'll need to be spirit until the moment you are needed most."

"So I'm going to die." A tear rolled down her cheek.

"Don't we all." Hope sighed sadly. "You must trust your brother and uncle to protect Hermione."

"She's all what's left?" The Princess gasped

"Yes," the ghost nodded. "The final prophecy as began."

"Then the nation is gone." Another tear.

"Never gone." Hope corrected. "They wait until the time they are called upon to battle the great evil, that as left them broken and bleeding. They will not end in silence, but in glory and honour."

A small smile.

"It's time." The ghost spoke. "Grab my hand child."

Gabriella touched Hope's hand. The cockpit was filled with blinding light as Gabriella link with her physically form was broken.

A shuttle approached the fighter and tractor beamed the lifeless craft back to it's mother craft.
