Luna woke up to see a grandmotherly figure above her checking her wounds. The woman was dressed in a blue dress with white lace and apron and it looked old fashioned. She was humming a tune that Luna barely recognised.
"Ah, you're awake" the woman said when she noticed.
Luna blinked in surprise. "Who- where am I?" She asked in a quiet voice.
The woman chuckled, "You are in Norview."
"Oh," was Luna's only comment.
"I'm Margo"
Luna didn't ask the woman's name but it didn't seem fair to not give her own. "My name is Luna."
"That's a pretty name, Luna. Reminds me of the lunar eclipse." Margo paused the added, "Why don't you get some rest, I'll give you medicene for the pain."
What pain? Luna wondered as she drifted off to sleep.
There is a voice calling me into the forest. I shouldn't go, Mommy says that the forest is dangerous at night. But the voice is calling me, persuading me to get out of bed, out of the beloved castle and into Selpia Plains. I tried to ignore, covering my head with the pillow, shifting restlessly. The voice is persistent, following me no matter how hard I try.
I give up. It was no use. Quietly, I slipped out of bed and I grabbed my short steel sword. Only a fool would go places outside of town without a weapon. I tiptoed out the door, not waking Mommy and Daddy. I followed the voice into the woods, past the bridge and into the Water Ruins. No monster followed me. I didn't see even a wooly.
The voice led me to the center room where the monster that turned into Daddy was. I saw the source of the voice. I screamed.
Hush, hush, the dragon told me. Don't want to wake the monsters now.
I trembled. "Why not?" I asked.
The dragon just smiled. He didn't answer and made me regret my decision.
My chapters are too short huh? Review please!
