What's up, everyone! Scorpion here, bring you yet another chapter of A Mother's Love.
I'm tired from school, so let's make this quick.
Technical Stuff: Rosie and the Lumas are Nintendo's. No use arguing about it.
That said *Clears Throat*, Chapter 15...
Chains of Fate
Off in the distance, a comet was passing by. The glorious light from its tail brighten the field of floating rocks as it flies. However, a large asteroid in the field crosses the comet's path. The comet violently crashes into the asteroid, the angle of which causes the rock to accelerate. The asteroid began to collide into others, pushing the smaller ones even faster.
The alarm on the panel began to make a blaring sound. The girl and the red luma both looked outside and saw as one of those asteroids headed for them. It was coming in too fast for the young girl to move the ship. So, without warning or thinking, she grabbed the luma in hopes that she can at least protect him.
*KABOOM*
The asteroid slammed to the one they were on, sending debris everywhere. Large rocks slammed in to the small ship, tearing it apart. The young girl held on to the luma as the ship broke apart around her, exposing them both to the vacuüm of space. However, despite now float in the void, they were still alive. Wondering how, the young girl open her eyes, not realizing that she had them closed tightly, and saw the beautiful stars and the nearby, radiant cloud of star-dust.
It turns out; the luma was using its power to keep her alive, knowing that she can't survive in the vacuüm of space like he can. Her first luma did the same thing so that they can travel together. She was very proud of the luma, but was also ashamed of herself. In her vain effort to save and protect the one she cared about, in the end, it was her who needed protecting.
"Thank you, little one," she said, tears floating from her eyes and catching the light of the star cloud, "and I'm sorry."
The luma looked at her, again lost at her words. "I worked so hard to watch over all of you, to protect you, but it was all meaningless. In my foolishness, I put the both of us in danger. I'm so sorry."
The luma simply nodded in understanding, trying to focus it's energy for her sake.
The young girl and the luma watched in horror as the doomed asteroid began to shatter in to its own field. The large rocks careened with others, changing their paths towards a bright light in a distance. It was the light from the beacon of the Observatory, and the asteroids were heading for it.
I promised a double upload of this story, and I am a man of my word. It will be up shortly.
This is Scorpion, signing out! T.T.F.N!
