章節 1: Father And Daughter
NEW YORK, The Year 2056
.
"Father, why did you name me and my brother, Vega and Altair?" the girl asked her doting father.
"Your mother picked the names, but they are exactly the names I would have chosen myself." The handsome man replied with a smile.
His mind drifted to 17 years ago.
He and his then-girlfriend were talking about the constellation and pleasantly surprised at so many things they had in common. They both loved astronomy and especially Altair and Vega.
"Tell me why you love Altair and Vega," the girl asked again.
She was so beautiful, and a spitting image of her father. She was the only daughter, the apple of his eye.
She was the reason he stopped wanting to kill people.

1] ALTAIR & VEGA
They are two of the brightest stars in the night sky. They represent probably the saddest most romantic love story of all time.
Vega was a celestial princess, a goddess of the sky. Immortal she may have been, yet she was weary as it seemed she would live in eternity alone.
One day Altair, a mortal, caught the eye of Vega. She descended from the heavens to greet him, and as they got to know each other she fell deeply in love. Vega promises Altair that no matter what they will be together in the heavens.
But when Vega's father finds out, he is enraged that his daughter would fall in love with a mere mortal. His fury only grows when he discovers that Vega promised to bring Altair up to the heavens with her.
In the most cruel of fashions, Vega's father grants the promise that she made. The two lovers were placed in the sky as stars. Yet while they were both in the heavens, they were not together. The great Celestial River, (known to us as Milky Way) separated them.
Yet each year, on the 7th night of the 7th moon, a bridge of magpies forms across the Celestial River. Though it would be for one night a year the two lovers are reunited as Altair dares to travel to his beloved.
Yet, sometimes Altair's annual trip across the Celestial River is too dangerous and he doesn't quite make it.
In those dark years, Vegas' tears form raindrops that fall over the earth.
