Monica slowly walked up to the Stonhenge she once said her last goodbye's to Max on. She remembered that day both fondly and with great sadness, as she and Max together had stopped Griffon but in turn...she lost Max. She couldn't stop thinking of that look on his face as he watched her, and his newfound friends and mother, all leave him. The last moment she looked into his eyes...she knew that the tears in his eyes were for her.
"Queen Raybrandt, we will wait bt the train." One of my supervisors said.
"Yes please, I need some...time." She said leaving their company and eventually reaching the inside of the monument. She had always come here, every month, since she left Max to remmber him...as she said she'd always do. As she ran her hands across the stone she noticed an old piece of paper poking out of the rocks. She pulled it out and saw the words 'Dear Monica.' She quickly tore open the note and began reading.
Dear Monica,
I'm not sure if this note will find you, or if you'll even look. Perhaps my mother will find it but Monica...our adventure was quite the journey, and writing this a year later seems to even strengthen what I learned from you and our adventure. From the pain we endured to the triumphs we faced, I always learned.
Things here have been...tough. My father is sick with a disease Dr.Dell cant even identify that left him crippled through his body. Cedric is in a wheelchair now after teying to fix the Blackstone One's smoke pipe, he still tries to get us to laugh that one off but we all now how badly he feels after his injury. Though I'm sure with the stuff in your future, you already know that.
Monica then ran her hand over a large piece of tape that ran across the middle of the paper. Noticing the difference in papers.
I've tried so hard to finish this letter in a good way but...I just can't. Things are hard for me here, and not just because my father or Cedric, its because of well you. I miss the ways you made me smile, made me laugh, and the way you were always by my side. It was me and you against everything, just us saving the world. When you left, everything seemd empty, like a candle had gone out. I guess what I'm trying to say is...Monica I love you, I've been thinking about it for a year now. I miss thw way you made my heart pump, the way your smile always brought a smile to my face. Watching you leave was the hardest thing I've had to do, and I just wanted to say that before I died, so you knew how I felt...even if it is 100 years too late.
with love,
Max
Monica folded the note up and slipped it into the pocket over her coat. She had tars in her eyes, but quickly wiped them away. She Knew what she had to do, she knew where she needed to be, even if it was 100 years in the past. "Set course for Balance Valley, I need a Starglass."
