And we seek Luna meeting Sage once again! And somehow...attitude switch!
Chapter 11: Meeting Sage Again
That afternoon, Luna walked her way towards the village to find Sage and as she walked this way, she saw Max sitting on the front porch and that indicates that she found the Bushido-Akio's house and when she entered in, she greets the white tiger cub and she said, "Hi, Max."
"Hi, Luna. What brings you over?" asked Max.
"Well...I actually wanted to see Sage. Is he here?" asked Luna.
That definitely surprised Max to hear that Luna is looking for Sage because he didn't not expect her to meet Sage and he tilted his head to the side and asked, "Sage?"
"Yeah, is he here?" asked Luna.
"Yeah, he's here. But...why Sage?" asked Max, still trying to figure this out.
"I told your dad that I could spend time with him and maybe try to help him a little. Besides, we're pretty good friends." Luna answered.
"I gotta warn you...he can be a little bit rambunctious at times. He's always on his bad side all the time." Max replied.
"That's why I'm here...to find the good parts of him." Luna replied.
Both of them were unaware that Sage was looking at the window and saw Luna standing there and that made Sage completely surprised that Luna would actually come over to see him and for Sage, it was like Luna saw him when he was invisible or looked away and it was a constant reminder of how much that she sees her as his one true friend.
Without thinking, he runs out of his room and heads to the front door and sees both Luna and Max talking and Luna turns around with a smile and she said, "Hi, Sage."
"Hey, Luna." Sage replied.
Max was a little perplexed by a sudden shift in Sage, thinking that something was up, but he decided to just not press the issue and he said, "Guess I'll see you guys later."
"Nice seeing you again, Max." Luna said, cheerfully.
"You too." Max replied, as he headed back in.
Soon afterwards, it was just the two wolves standing there and Sage blinked his eyes a little bit and he walked out of the porch and he asked, "So...what brings you here?"
"Just wanted to see you and maybe talk with you for a little bit." Luna answered.
For Sage, it was a little impossible for someone to break through his closely guarded walls because he's always used to put this front he got as the tough, brutal guy who doesn't give a crap about anything or anyone while hiding a vulnerable side of him because of his traumatic experience on losing his parents in a fire, but Luna comes in and she easily walked through those walls like it was nothing and it kinda made it easier for him to open up to her about almost anything.
"Okay, what would you like to know?" asked Sage.
And so it begins...
