Dear Journal,

It has been two weeks since I confessed to Lucky, and today has been another rough day. Lucky managed to rescue the Guardians from Nightmare, although I hear Lucky has been injured. I cried when I heard our new friend Dianthus lost his life from the severing of his tails. As you know, I know how loss feels, and I'm sure that Dahlia, his twin sister, is absolutely devastated. Had I the chance to try and comfort her, I wouldn't know what to say. I mean, Lucky and I only knew him for two moons, while Dahlia knew him her entire life. It made me think very much of all my friends. Morpho Knight, Miralune, Midnight, Marx…Stella…There still isn't a day that goes by where I don't think about them.

All three Guardians seemed to sense something was bothering me shortly after announcing Dianthus' fate. I was afraid to let them know about my old friends, so I told them something else that was bothering me:

"I should blame myself" I sobbed, "I should've told Lucky that it'd be too dangerous to bring them to celebrate. But something stopped me, and now he's gone." I couldn't look them in the eye.

I felt two hands placed around my scarf. "Magolor," came Aurora's voice, "This is hard for you, but you shouldn't beat yourself over the head about this. It's only natural to make mistakes."

I gazed up at her, my eyes blurred with tears. "Even ones as big as this?"

"Yes, Magolor. Even we Guardians make mistakes at times, some of which cost many lives. Compared to one we've caused in that case, your mistake was a snowflake beside an iceberg."

I took a moment to wipe my tears away. "Do you really mean it, Aurora?" I sniffed.

"Don't worry, Magolor," stepped in Rivara, "While Dahlia is broken right now, she will feel better about this at some point. In some cases, it's perfectly fine to be heartbroken."

"Besides, bad things will always happen in life, often when you least expect them." added Chenoa, "While there isn't always much one can do to prevent them, there's almost always a way to learn from them."

Before I go to bed, I want to say that I've certainly learned a lot from the Guardians today. I'm sure that Lucky will recover from his rescue journey and Dahlia will soon feel better about the loss of her brother. As for me…despite what I was told today, I'm not sure what to think. Although it's been years and years, I still miss Stella dearly. And knowing now that Midnight is dead and everyone else's whereabouts are unknown continues to take such a toll on me. I just hope that one day, I'll find them all to be alive and well…

-Your buddy, Magolor

A/N: Yeah, I know this story was sad, but I felt like I had to write it. Actually, this story is based on a recent school assignment I had, and I found it to be a good model. Feel free to leave a review, but no spam please!
