The next day Luigi and Luna were walking along the beach together hand in hand.
'I know I can't hide my family from Luigi forever, But what if he finds out?' Thoughts like this raced through Luna's head when she felt a little tug on her hand. She looked to Luigi to see him smile at her,
"I'm just asking Luna, What are you your parents like?"
Luna looked down but continued to walk,
"My mother was beautiful. She was warmhearted and open to possibilities. She even helped me through a rough time in my life. I loved her with all my heart. I wish you could've met her."
"What happened to her?"
"She disappeared after an event went wrong."
"Ohh….. What about your father?"
"My dad….. I could live the rest of my life without."
"Why is that Luna? I'm sure your father loves you."
Luna stopped walking and tears started to pour out her eyes, her voice started to shake,
"Luigi? Is love when you tell someone they're useless because they refuse to do what they're told? Is love when you beat that person just because they aren't like what the parent envisioned? My father loved Maria and my brothers so much. He called me useless after my mother died, just because I'm not his perfect protégée. He made me dread to live, I wanted to end it all, I wanted to close my eyes and end it all." Luna opened her eyes, "Until I met you Luigi, I'm free to live and to love as I please. I can open my heart to you, and be forever in yours. I can finally feel my heart beat with love, with happiness, and not with dread. Luigi you had finally set me free and welcomed me into your heart and I love you dearly for that and more. "
Luigi started to tear to and pulled Luna into a bear hug.
"I'm so sorry…… I'm sorry you had to go through with that, Luna. I promise to never hurt you."
She pulled away slightly, "Thank you Luigi. That means so much coming from you."
~With Junior~
Junior was lying on his stomach on his bed just looking at the crystal heart.
"I wonder where Luna got this it's so pretty."
Then he looked back at the box to see the inscription,
"The madness of this world
Cannot be conquered
By the sadness or the power
Of the world,
But only by the oneness
Of the world – hearts"
Junior was confused about that. Then he looked deeply into the crystal's center to see something weird,
It had a grown woman dancing. She had long black hair put up into a fountain like style; her eyes were a blue color. Her dress was a white dress that had thin straps that hung off her shoulders and was tight on the waist up, and flared out toward the waist down. What Junior could see was her shoes were white high heels. She was smiling and seemed to be having a good time.
"WOW! SHE'S SO PRETTY! SHE KINDA LOOKS LIKE MOMMY!"
Junior continued to watch the woman dance till she disappeared. A new image appeared, It looked like Luna on her knees, she was sobbing and crying into her arm. And he heard her desperate voice,
"Why? Why would you take my love away? WHY WOULD YOU TAKE LUIGI FROM ME!?"
Then in a flash of light, Junior was now looking at something…… inhuman.
"Is that what Luna will look like?" Junior didn't like what he saw. He brushed the thought away as he heard his dad,
"JUNIOR?! LUNA'S HOME!!!"
~With Luigi and Luna~
The two had spent the day together, and were almost home when Luna noticed the rose garden in the moonlight. Luna grabbed Luigi's hand and pulled him over, she started to waltz with him, he smiled and danced with her. They whispered sweet words in each other's ears and giving occasional kisses.
Then Luna began to sing softly,
"With your wings tonight...
You can - come from - anyone can play
And we - will come - on the inside
And when - you get - right into the heart
You know - there's no other way to cry
Smile will bring the sunshine days
Comfort me tonight, with your wings tonight
Smile will bring the sunshine days
You come anyway, on the way you ride
You can - come from - anyone can play
And we - will come - on the inside
A chance - to have - flying that way
As I fly - across the distant sky
Smile will bring the sunshine days
Comfort me tonight, with your wings tonight
Smile will bring the sunshine days
You come anyway, on the way you ride
Comfort me tonight, with your wings tonight
You come anyway, on the way you ride"
Luigi laughed lightly, "My what's that song about? Hmm?"
"For my Angel. The one that set me free."
Then……CRASH!
Luna and Luigi looked at eachother and started toward the castle. Inside the throne room Luna saw some people she wanted to forget………. There stood Bowser, Maria, and Waluigi. In the corner Mario, Peach and the others were bound and gagged. Luigi shook a little but held his ground,
"Luna, get behind me." Luigi pulled Luna behind him but Luna wouldn't budge.
Luna just stood there starring at the smirking Bowser. Bowser stood and simply stated,
"I finally found you Sinier (Sin- long e- er). I wondered where you went." He walked up to her.
Luna continued to stare into space,
"LUNA, WAKE UP!" Luigi shouted to her. "BOWSER, GET AWAY FROM HER!"
Bowser scoffed, "Why I just want to take…"
Bowser was cut off by Luna kicking him in his mouth sending him flying across the room.
(Something she got from her powerful dad) Luigi and the others stared in awe at her. But then got scared when they saw her, her hair shadowed her eyes and her once smile was a thin line in pure anger.
Her voice sounded scary and sinister, "I will not allow you to tell them. I made my vow you heartless monster."
Bowser laughed as he got up, "You think you could hide what you were from Luigi? Knowing he would hate you for what you really are? Hmm Luna or should I call you Sinier?"
Mario had freed his hands and stood up confused, "What do you mean Bowser?"
Then Luna shouted distressed, "PLEASE NO!!!"
Some Kupas restrained Luna's hands and they giggled darkly at Luna trying to break free.
"Well, my dear Mario, I just came to pick up my daughter."
At that second, time seemed to go in slow motion as Luna felt her heart literally start to crack.
Gasps were heard in the room, all eyes shot to Luna who sobbed and hung her head.
"Luna?" Luigi asked in horror, "It-IT's a lie isn't it? TELL ME IT'S NOT TRUE!"
Luna bit her bottom lip and cried harder tilting her head to the side to the ground.
"Yes. She is my youngest daughter. I missed my child so much and I only want her back."
Luigi thought his heart would stop beating, 'She's Bowser's daughter? I had fallen for….'
"IT'S NOT TRUE! YOU'RE LYING TO US BOWSER!" Mario shouted holding up his fist in anger.
"No. I can tell you everything about my daughter. Her name is Luna Sinier. I named her Sinier because she has a root to our family. She's been away for far too long, so come here Luna, time to go home."
Luna was dropped to her knees, her face shadowed by her long hair, her hands trying to grip the sleek marble floor. Her tears hit the ground in some time. Peach went up to Luna and placed a comforting hand on Luna's shoulder, but then felt this dark aura coming from Luna.
'It's stronger than Mario and Bowser's aura.' Peach thought in shock.
Then all of a sudden Bowser put his hand on Luna's head, she screamed loudly as her body began to change. Her once human skin turned to a green with yellow under her arms and legs, her nails turned to three inch claws, her dark brown hair became a bright red, her legs bent forward slightly, as her fangs grew longer. A tail similar to Bowser's appeared behind her. She looked like Bowser humanized.
"See? You fell for my daughter. Sinier, I can't believe you are ashamed of who you are."
Luna turned her head to see Luigi ball up his fist and tear in anger.
'Please Luigi. My control is hanging by a thread, don't say what I think you-'
Luigi angrily turned on his heel, "I can't believe you kept something like this from me Luna. I-I- I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!" Then Luigi left the room slamming the door.
"Well, Luna, let's get back home."
Waluigi picked Luna up bridle style. Then Mario and the others noticed her eyes, usually when they saw Luna, her blue was more dominate than her red but now her red was becoming more dominate than her blue.
After Bowser and them left, Mario could only stare at the place Luna was just standing.
"I can't believe it, Peach. Someone who made Luigi so happy is the daughter of our greatest rival. I looked at Luna like my sister. I-"
Peach gently took Mario's hand, Then Mario dropped to his knees and cried,
"LUIGI DIDN'T DESERVE THAT! I WILL KILL LUNA NEXT TIME I SEE HER!!!"
Luigi flopped down on his bed and cried the whole night.
~With Luna~
Luna was not acting like herself; she gained her human form back and was looking out her window. The dark scenery blackened her heart more. Junior tried to give her a hug, but she pushed him away and ran up to her room, locked the door, and stayed there. Her heart had cracked like a window under pressure. She cried hard till she had no more tears and started to cry tears of blood.
"Why? Why would you take my love away? WHY WOULD YOU TAKE LUIGI FROM ME!?" Sinier screamed
She looked around her room, it's exactly like it was before. She sighed, then suddenly she felt an intense pain in her chest when she felt her heart finally shatter.
"What's happening to me?!"
'Bowser and Maria will pay for this. They wanted Sinier like this? I'll give them what they asked for." A dark female voice said as Luna got off the floor. 'Beware Bowser. You're in for a world of terror.'
~With Junior~
Junior held the heart in his hands till, it started to crack. Junior looked into the center once more, see an image of Luna and Luigi laying in the bed and he heard what they were saying,
"Luigi promise you'll never leave me?"
"Why would you ask something like that Luna? You know I love you."
"What if I wasn't what I seem?"
Luigi smiled, "I like you the way you are. You don't need to change."
"I don't ever want to feel abandoned."
"Have you been abandoned before?"
"I- I ran away from my only home because I didn't want to marry?"
"An arranged marriage?! Who would do that?!"
"My father was about to marry me off the Waluigi, I didn't love him so I ran."
Luigi stroked her hair as she continued to cry, "Shhh I'll never abandon you. I love you too much to do that." He kissed her forehead.
"I don't want to have my heart broke again so can you swear?"
"I swear from the bottom of my heart and soul."
Luna snuggled into Luigi
"Luna and Luigi seemed to really love eachother. Who would daddy break it up?"
Then that image stayed like that till the crack went right through it, between Luna and Luigi. Their faces, once smiling, turned into distressed faces being torn apart. The heart started to fill with black fire till all of it was consumed, then before Junior could do anything, the heart shattered into many pieces, Junior gasped.
"Now what will happen? Mama, I wish you were here."
