What am I? Chapter 2

I was greatly surprise by how many people read the story on the first two days. It made me so happy. The story will have it dark and light moments, don't worry its not that dark. I hope. Please review, favorite or alert or all three. Enjoy the story.

It was a couple of weeks after the hit, everything had calmed down. Luna blinked as she heard her phone chirp, she saw it was the man she was tutoring on Earth culture. She sighed as she got dress, and disappear out of the house. She quietly walked to the library as she flipped her hood up and pulled up the mask covering her lower face, a few strands of her hair stuck out of the side of her hood.

It had several little short braids that had beads in them that were clicking together as she walked to the middle of the library, the blond man stood up waving, "Lady Blue Eyes."

She sighed, "Lower the volume of your voice, this is a place of learning. People come here to enjoy the peace that can get nowhere else."

Red started to bloom on his cheeks, he whispered, "Forgive me, Lady Blue Eyes."

She snorted as they walked over to a table setting for six people. The wooden chair groaned under the massive man. She sat across from him, "What would you like to learn about today?"

He thumbed his beard, "Does your people have Blinde snipe?"

She hummed, "Describe it to me."

After he describe them to her, she went to the place where she would think the animal was the closest to what the massive man talked about. She flipped through the pages as she found a picture of an elk, she turned the book around as she walked back to the table. She put the book in front of the blond man, he said that his name was Lance Smith, odd name.

"These are called elk, they are part of the deer family."

He grinned, "Do your people hunt them?"

She nodded, "It is only during certain times of the year, and we can only hunt to a limit."

He was flipping through the pages, when he looked up at her, "Why?"

"To keep them from going extinct."

"Extinct, what in Odin's beard is that?"

Luna sighed, "An animal species that no longer exist."

"Why would the animal go extinct?"

Luna picked up the book as it flipped to a page of the deer ancestor, "There many reasons, mainly it's due to my people hunting them down to the last one."

Lance frowned, "It is like a bloodline of the royal family."

Luna nodded, "Even with bloodlines, there is no future for the next line."

Lance sighed, "There is so much in your world that I don't understand about. Why hunt an animal till there is no longer any left? Didn't people hunt to surivie?"

Luna nodded, "They were called Native Americans. They were different from white men. The Natives respected, protected and served the land. They respected the land for the food and water they were given, but soon white man came in and started to hunt the Native food, their way of life was destroyed. There are very few, and they are scrattered, some hold the traditions, but some leave their ways of life to fit in the new world. They no longer see themselves of the people to the Great Spirit. They lose their ways, but they are proud people."

Lance nodded, "I don't know what to said, my lady. But I am proud that they have not lost the way."

Luna nodded, "What else would you like to learn today?"

Before Lance could answer the clock chimed, nine times, it was nine o'clock, she had gotten here at seven. She stood up stretching, "That is our lesson for the day, don't you have to go see that girlfriend?"

Lance laughed as he followed Luna to where she had gotten the book, "Yes, I do, my lady. You have taught me well in not embarrassing her. I did not realize that such things that we do on home, can cause arguments do to what I said."

Luna nodded as they walked to the front desk, "Did you take her onto your date?"

Lance smiled, and laughed, "She was very surprised by my gift and she is to become my wife."

Luna smiled, "Congratulations, so when is the big day?"

Lance frowned, "Big day?"

Luna sighed, "It is another way of speaking the big event like a birth of a child, a coronation, or even the day in which you wed."

Lance exclaimed in a grin, rolling on his heels, "We have not decided where and when, but I know that I would like you to be in the wedding."

Luna blinked, "Why?"

Lance smiled, "My lady, you have helped me understand Earth and her ways with her people. I now understand what my friends said, now that I look back. I feel like I was a buffoon."

Luna smiled, "You have used a Earth term. Excellent."

Lanced blushed, "It is due to your teaching. I know I haven't been the best of students, even when I was growing up. I never wanted to learn, all I wanted to do was fight. My brother…my brother was more of the learner, now I wish I could talk with him and understand the things he saids. As you have said, books are doors to different worlds and ideas."

Luna nodded, "They serve good to many people, but in some ways they have served the bad in people."

Lance frowned as they walked outside of the library, "What do you mean, my lady?"

Luna smiled behind her mask, "Some people have taken the ideas that author or storytellers have made and make them real. They have tried to work or make things that only exist in the world of make believe. Like stories of the Gods."

Lance smiled, "Like Thor, God of Thunder."

Luna snorted, "I am more of a fan of Loki."

Lance frowned, "Loki? Why him?"

Luna sighed, "The way he can said things. Silvertongue, sometimes I wish for the ability to do different things he can do. Shapeshift, if I could do that, then I would be able to fly away from here."

Lance walked beside her as they stopped at the crosswalk, "Your aunt still punishes you."

Luna nodded, "When I am twenty – one, I can finally leave this place, and her."

Lance nodded, "When do you have your day of birth?"

"It was five days ago, I am seventeen now." Luna sighed as she put her hands into her pockets.

Lance smiled as he waved to a woman with brown hair, he turned to Luna, "Happy late day of birth, Lady Blue Eyes."

Luna smiled as he gave her a gentle, he has improve over the weeks to pull back on his strength. She watched as he jogged to the woman as he lifted her by her hips spinning, the woman shrieking and laughing.

Luna turned away from the love fest, noticing a bald man with a black eye patch watching her. She glared at the man as the man blinked as Luna walked by him. Luna walked by him as her senses his aura, he was a man of secrets. He was not a man to trust, but only if you need to. Luna walked away as she jogged to the bookstore hoping that book was there. She rushed inside walking by the people in there, as she looked up on the bookshelf as she pulled back her hood as sighed. Someone else had gotten to the book. She started to leave the store, when a worker stopped her, "Ma'am, there a book at the counter for you."

Luna followed the woman as the woman ducked under the counter to pull out the old book. Luna gapped, "How much?"

The woman shook her head smiling, "It is already paid for by a nice gentlemen."

Luna blinked, "What did he looked like?"

The woman smiled, giggling, "He was tall, pale skin, but not very pale. He could be a vampire," the woman deeply sighed, "He was handsome, he could a rich man. He had black raven hair that was pulled into a braid, then his eyes. Oh my goodness, he had the deepest color green of eyes that I have ever seen."

Luna blinked, "The man with green eyes."

The woman blinked, "Excuse me?"

Luna played dumb, "I said, did he leave anything else?"

The woman ducked again, "A letter for you."

Luna took the letter and book and rushed home. She saw that her aunt's car was gone. Thank god for small favors. She rushed to her room, running up the steps as she nearly broke her doorknob. She sat down on her bed, as she gently took a letter opener and opened the folded letter, it was written in near handwriting,

"Dear Luna,

You know when our hands touch that we were connected. I have watched for weeks. I have already read the book, but I wanted to see if any other mortals would read it. I have watched the days of your life since that day we have meet. If I hadn't already found information about you, I would have taken you away from the dreadful place. You deserve to be dress in rich silks, jewelry surrounding that neck that I wish to kiss and bite. Rick silks that enhanced the beauty that your body possesses, yet you hid it with sweatshirts, and ragging jeans with the holey shoes. I want to be able to pull back your lovely long hair that enchanted me every time you let it down. I have seen you practice dancing. You move swiftly and calculating, it makes my heart pulsing faster. I wish to court you, my dear. I will contact you again.

Sinceraly,

Your Trickster."

Luna blinked, okay creepy was the first thought, but he was asking for permission to date her. She bit her lip, who was this man? She sighed as she pulled the book out and opened the lock to open the creaking ancient book. The pages were blank, but as soon as Luna blew her breath on the pages, words began to appear. Luna sighed as she leaned her head against the wall. What am I?
