Chapter 8: Part 2: The adventure begins!
"Lunar Balance!!!" Everything stopped, and a beam hit Fiona.
"Foolish." Fiona snickered. She smacked the beam away. It was going to collide against Comet. But. Small Lady stood again, and took the hit. "Small!" "Stop it!!" You're leaking in blood." Comet was nearly crying over her. "Bring her into the shrine, Comet." "I'll take these guys out." The old man shouted, "Blue Beard, Banisher!" A giant blue beard swept at them, and they disappeared again. "A hologram." Comet's father said. He moved into the shrine, so he could reveal the secret.
"Small, are you alright?" Small Lady was dazed, and her vision blurring. "Are you?" Small Lady just stared up at Comet, hoping she wasn't hurt. "That Fiona, what a jerk!" She grabbed a bunch of potions and fluids off the wall and mixed them up. "Now let's bandage you up a bit." Comet said uneasily. After the potions were done, and Comet was done spilling and splashing, she opened Small Lady's mouth and poured it in. "This should make you better by tomorrow. I knew I shouldn't have left the hospital with you!" Comet put her hands on her head. "Comet.who taught you how to use that attack? The one you used against Fiona."
A tear came down Small Lady's cheek as she remembered the painful memory when they first met. "Oh! My mother, she was a teacher of the Magic Arts School down near the hospital. She taught everyone at least 1 spell of magic so you could defend yourself. She had to first identify your basic beginner type first though." Comet said though her smile sort of faded in a way. "What are types?" Small Lady was confused. "Oh, Magic types you mean? There are many, many magic types that you use as your type of magic attacks. But, when you're little you only get to choose one. It more likely chooses you really. My mom had a wand, with the ocean on it. You could feel it, and hear it when you touched her wand. It was a special wand that chooses your magic type for you. You say some ancient words, and a magic saying, and viola! "Do you think.I could learn?" "Of course!" But, you aren't even a member of Lunatia yet REMEMBER? Comet gave Small Lady the look of anger that she didn't want to deal with look. "How do I become a member?" Small Lady was very confused about their world. A "member" sounded more club-like than the world you were born in, and you're already in sort of thing. Comet sighed deeply. "Your still hurt, you should leave your questions till tomorrow when your well. Ask one more, then I'll put you in my bed." "Comet seems a lot like mother." Small Lady thought. That reminded her of her last question. "Comet, where is your mom?" Comet frowned, something Small Lady seemed to remember from herself. "I'm 16. My mother, she wanted to go out and help teach magic to the other people of Lunatia. To go on an adventure, like I have wanted to, really. She had waited for so many years, but when I was born, I was supposed to be a distraction to her true dream." A small tear ran down Comet's face. "When I was 8 years old, some time in May, she left me.." More tears began to fall. "She left without saying goodbye, and I never saw her again."
Comet Flashback*********
*Young Comet awakens from her slumber at 5:34 in morning* Comet: Daddy! Daddy! Where is mommy? She isn't in bed, or anywhere! Comet's Father stared blankly at Comet. : S-she left comet, dear. *Tears strolling down his face* to fulfill her dream!" Comet just stood there, shaking into tears. "NO!" "She wouldn't leave me!" "She loves me!" Tears seem to explore Comets face, until she screamed. "SHE PROMISED!" "SHE SAID SHE LOVED ME!" Comet ran out the door just as the sun was coming up. She thought she saw her mother in her blue kimono walking the path of the very edge of the sunset. "NO!!!!!!!!!!" "YOU PROMISED!" "THAT YOU LOVE ME FOREVER!" Comet ran at the fading image in the forest, running towards the sunset tear. She was wearing a pink kimono, and as she ran she fell down, her knee bleeding and her heart iced. She finally fell on the forest ground, just as the rain was falling. "Why.?" Tears freckled her face. And the rain fell on as well. "If you love me.why didn't you tell me? Or take me with you? You said you loved me!!!" As her tears raced, her father walked into the forest and found Comet alone, in her tears. He picked her up, and held her close.
End of Comet Flashback***************
Tears again rippled downward, like in her memory. "It's been me and Dad since then." She smeared her hand across her face to erase her tears. "I'll show you the room now!" She gripped on her feelings, and showed Small Lady her room. Small Lady was still concerned for Comet, but mentioned nothing as she saw her room it had a blue bed with all the different blues imaginable, a gold and blue lamp. A blue and gold closet, a blue Chester drawer, a blue knight doll, a vase of lily's on top of her Chester drawer's and corner of the room full of a bunch of odd miscellaneous items thrown into a bag.
"Sorry if it's kind of messy, but I worked at the hospital all day with you yesterday, and a bunch of sick poisoned men the day before. I had to stay there for two day's." Comet smiled. Her tears had vanished from before and she was still actually smiling. "Goodnight!" Comet simply said, and closed the door. Small Lady simply went into the bed, and her heartache simply could just be enough to make her fall into a deep slumber.
Small lady awoke to see sunlight enter the room. She got out of bed, made it, and walked outside. She saw Comet, roaring with energy. It was practically flowing out of her. "HYAA!" With that, she sliced a huge boulder blocking a cave entrance. "Never seen that before!" Comet said surprisingly. "Me neither, I didn't see it yesterday." Small Lady said as she surprised Comet. She jumped back for a moment, and then grinned. "I see your up early!" "It's only 6:00 AM!" Comet laughed. "But then I suppose, a small shrimp like you would want to see some power!" "Oh shut up!" Small Lady blurted out, full of jealousy. "I always practice fighting early in the morning!" "It makes me stay focused with my power." "Well, I certainly think we should see this weird old cave out."
So, Small Lady and Comet checked out the weird cave, and found Comet's father inside. "Comet!" "Small!" "So you have come!" "This is the cave where I, will lead you to your adventure, just like the legend says so!" Comet's father grinned with excitement. "Small, you may call me, Jhoto." "I am a Master Healer." "In the legend, they say a girl shall come to this world, to capture the crystal's of the 107 Lunatia regions and save the land from the darkness, that is beginning to bring about death here." "I am a step to help you in the legend." "For when you helped my daughter out, I KNEW that you had been the one sent from Earth. For earth is only spoken by the spirits." "WAIT A DARN MINUTE!" Small Lady slammed, for he was saying something she knew was impossible. "What legend?" Comet's father held up a book of baby blue crystal covering, and white cleansed pages. "This is the legendary book the spirits gave me when I was told of my destiny." "I am to make you a member of Lunatia, give you this book of guidance and to make a you, become a woman.
"Lunar Balance!!!" Everything stopped, and a beam hit Fiona.
