And now it's time for the final chapter of the story! I would like to thank everyone who reviews, favorited, and followed this story. Here's the last chapter. I said I was gonna wait a few days, but since tomorrow's a busy day, I thought it was best if I post it now. :)

Note: I accidentally uploaded the wrong chapter, but this is the REAL chapter 10. I fixed the problem. I hope I don't do that again. XD That's what I get for rushing while posting chapters, I click on the wrong thing. :P Here's the real chapter 10.

FUN FACTS ABOUT THIS STORY:

Vespera: Comes from the Latin word "ad vesperum" which means "evening".

Kevin's last name, Jasney, comes from the Polish word "jasny" meaning "bright".

Gracie and Angelina are both named after old, unreleased Taylor Swift songs. Emily's name comes from the song Brought Up That Way.

Shadow is named after my friend's cat in real life.

This story was originally two separate story ideas, but when Dark Moon came out, I thought it would be better to combine them.

Mrs. Manabuni's name comes from the Japanese word "manabu" which means "learn".

Mr. Toadlerara's name comes from the Dutch word "leraar" which means "teacher."

Various Unnamed People

"What?!" I exclaim in shock. How can this be? Me, a princess? All this time? What? Mario nods.

"Yes it's true. I remember this letter now. Luigi and I were there when your parents wrote it." Mario explains.

"Well, who are my parents?" I ask.

"I'm sure you've heard of them." Luigi replies. "Queen Luna and King Simon." Wait... King Simon and Queen Luna... no way. They're the king and queen of Evershade Valley! I've seen them on TV, the news, practically everywhere! When the Dark Moon broke, they helped evacuate Vespera. They're my parents?! I'm too shocked to say anything.

"But they never had a kid." I say.

"Actually they did." Gadd says. "You're their daughter."

"Wait... doesn't that mean-"

"You're the princess of Evershade Valley? Yes indeed." Gadd says. "In fact, we just called them and told them that you're here."

"Really?" I exclaim. "I get to meet them?"

"Of course!" Gadd says. "They've been excited for the day they get to see you for a long time."

"That's incredible!" I say. Suddenly, a ghost dog walks into the room. He has a red collar on. Shadow sees the dog and vice versa. Instead of attacking each other, they start playing with each other.

"Aw, that cute. Looks like Polterpup has a friend." Luigi says. Shadow gets up and sits on my lap while Polterpup sits next to me. "Anyways, we better get going if we're gonna see Eve's parents."

"Alright, you guys have fun. I'll stay here." Gadd says. "I need to check a few things. Something's going funky with the Parascope so I'll need to fix it. Nothing big."

"Okay, well good luck." Mario says.

"See you later." Luigi tells Gadd.

"You too." he replies. We leave the house and both Polterpup and Shadow come along.

After a 10 minute drive, we arrive at a beautiful, purple and silver castle. It's probably the prettiest castle I've ever seen. As we walk toward the entrance, a guard lets us enter the castle.

"Wow this castle is pretty." I say in awe.

"Indeed it is." someone says. I face forward and see a beautiful woman in a purple dress as purple as the Dark Moon, long black hair, green eyes, and a crown with a gem on it that looks like the Dark Moon, too. Next to her is a man wearing indigo, black hair, green eyes, and a crown with a sapphire on it. I know who these people are. They're the king and queen themselves.

"Hello Eve." Queen Luna says.

"Hello." I reply back. Note, when you've just found out that you're secretly the princess of Evershade Valley, sometimes you just don't know what to say.

"Surprised that we're your parents?" she asks.

"Well, yeah. Why wouldn't I be?" I tell her. I still cannot believe this is happening.

"You've grown so much since I last saw you. You were only a baby." King Simon says.

"Wow, thanks." I reply. "But I have a question."

"What is it?" Luna asks.

"What was the reason behind leaving me behind the doorstep?" I ask.

"Well, we were worried about you're safety. You see, we have a certain enemy that wants to take over Evershade Valley. We've stopped him in the past, but we were worried about you. We didn't want to leave you at that doorstep, but we had to. We don't even know who we left you with." Luna explains.

"You left me with a toad named Marylin. She's on her annual summer vacation at Isle Delfino with her boyfriend right now, so she doesn't know I'm here." I tell her.

"Wait, does Marylin at least have someone watch over you when she's gone?" Simon asks.

"No, not really." I tell him. "I usually take care of myself and Shadow." Shadow walks up to the couple and purrs.

"You're kitten is adorable, isn't she?" Luna asks.

"Yeah, she's my favorite cat." I tell her.

"Well, I'm glad that Eve found her parents," Luigi says. "Mario and I have to get home. Good luck, Eve."

"Thanks, Mario and Luigi." I say to them. "Bye."

"Bye." they say as they leave the castle.

"Well, it's getting late, isn't it?" Luna says. I look up at the big clock, it's 11:30. "Eve, do you want to see your room?"

"Okay." I say. We walk down a long hallway. We walk to a purple door and Luna opens the door. We walk into a bedroom with lavender walls, a white floor, and a light blue ceiling. There's a huge closet, a medium sized bed with a purple blanket, several windows with a pretty view over Vespera, a huge wardrobe and several other pieces of furniture.

"Here's your room." she says. I sit down on the bed.

"Thanks... mom." I tell her. She smiles at me. We give each other a hug. I don't know why, but I feel like I found a part of me that was missing.

"Good night." she says. She leaves the room. I change into my white pajamas and I turn out the light as I get into the bed and fall asleep. I found my parents. I feel like a complete person. Before that, I felt like something was missing, but I found it.

And that was the last chappie, folks! But don't be sad, because I'm making a sequel! I already wrote the sequel in my head. I'll post it in a few days. Anyways, like always, reviews are appreciated, flames will be dosed with water.

Question of the Day(again): What did you think of the story overall? What do you think will happen in the sequel?
