AUTHOR'S NOTES:
This is my first fan fiction I have ever written, I will try my best to do well on this. Keep in mind I am quite young and new to the web site. Thanks for reading!
DISCLAIMER: sadly none of these amazing characters belong to me :(
Chapter 1:
"Ok Ahumere, I will be there in a minute. I need to see the new coconut grove the farmers are making. And then I have to check on the children's dancing, and the drummers."
"Sure Moana, but you need to relax, so when you are done come weave some tapa mats with us."
"Okay Ahumere."
Moana started walking toward the coconut grove. She has been doing well fitting into her new role as chief, since Tefiti. Her parents and her village were very excited to see her after her adventure. They had a huge feast that night in her honor, she told the story of her and Maui, and the people loved it. Her parents wanted to meet the great demigod Maui after her amazing tale, but sadly he never came back. It has been five years since she last saw him, she was hoping he would stop by and see how the wayfinding was going, but he never did. She understands that he has a lot of catching up to do, but she still misses him.
Moana gets to the new grove and sees that the farmers are doing well planting the new trees, so she makes her way over to the children still reminiscing about Maui, and their adventure.
The children are doing well, just missing a step here and there, she helps out for a bit and is on her way again. While walking to the drummers, she runs into her parents.
"Hi mom, hi dad"
"Hello Moana, what have you been doing today?"
"Oh I have been very busy, I have been helping the farmers with the new coconut grove, and the children with the dances, I am now going to check up on the drummers now."
"That is good Moana, but you need to relax, you have been doing great, but working nonstop."
"I know mom, there is so much to do, I'll take a break later."
"But Moana you have been saying that for the past few months. This is not good for you, you need to relax a bit, it will help you."
"Yes Moana, you need a break. Maybe you could go for a little sail, you could be back for the festival in two days."
"Really dad? You think I should go?"
"Yes Moana, your mother and I have been looking after this village for quite some time now, I think we could do it a bit more." He smiles at Moana and give her a little pat on the back, he knows his daughter well; and knows she has been dying to go out sailing.
"Ok guys, I will prepare my boat. Thank you guys." She says smiling.
"Your welcome my little minnow" her mother says while giving her daughter a hug.
Moana has packed her food for the next couple days she will be gone. Her boat is ready to go, and so is she. She says goodbye to her parents after making sure for the hundredth time that they will be ok. She gives them a hug, and pushed her boat out onto the ocean, who is very exited to see her again after so long.
"Ok ocean, I am going to just be sailing around for a couple of days"
A tendril of water rose up and splashed her in the face playfully.
"Hey!"
The ocean was still it's playful self, and it still loved Moana. Moana missed being on the ocean, the calm, and relaxing feeling that washed over her in the sea breeze. It was one of the best feelings she knew.
Moana was adjusting the course, when she heard a loud thump, and felt the boat rock with the weight of whatever landed on it. Moana whipped around with her oar outstretched in front of her ready to attack whatever was on her boat.
"Woah there Curly, I'm just stoping by, no need to take my head off" he chuckled
"Maui?" Moana asked as she lowered her oar.
"The one and only!"
"Maui!" She ran and threw herself into his arms in a tight embrace, It threw him off balance but he quickly recovered, and wrapped his arms around her waist.
Moana lowered herself out of his warm arms, He looked at her, and was shocked when he didn't see the little girl anymore. Now standing before him was a woman, a beautiful one at that. She has changed and grew in places, he hadn't noticed before. How long was he gone? It couldn't have been that long, but then again she looks like she has aged. It's probably nothing. He assures himself.
"How have you been princess?"
