Disclaimer: I don't own the Under The Never Sky Trilogy or any of the characters in the trilogy but I do own Kai and Luna.
We walked to my house, but my parents weren't there. "They must be at a meeting with the other elders." I said.
I waited for a response but there was none. I looked over to where she was. She was looking at a wooden fox on the mantle. I walked over to her and put it in her hand. "My dad made it for me when I was little. He said that I would have the ears of a fox." I said.
The girl looked up at me. "Why would you have the ears of a fox?" she asked.
I thought to myself, Maybe I should tell her. I mean she is probably gonna stay here so it wouldn't hurt. "I am an Audile or Aud. It means I can hear everything; the fly that's buzzing around in the other room, your fast heart beat..." I said trailing off.
She looked down and smiled. "Wow," she said looking up, "That's amazing."
I smiled back at her. "You know, I never found out your name." I said.
"Luna."
"Like the moon Luna or-"
"Yes, like the moon Luna"
I couldn't stop smiling. I got this weird feeling. I never felt anything like it before. It was weird. "So, when are your parents getting back?" She asked breaking the silence.
I was about to say that I didn't know when I heard them coming towards the house. "They're almost here." I said.
My parents walked in a few seconds later. My mom smiled. "Well, it's nice to see you up. I see you've already met Kai." my mom said looking from Luna, to me, and back to Luna, "I'm Aria, Kai's mother. And this is my husband Perry." she extended her hand and Luna shook it.
"It's nice to meet you." Luna said.
My mother guided us towards the table. "Please sit. We have a lot to discuss." she said.
We all sat down around the table. I sat next to Luna and my parents sat opposite from us. There was an awkward silence for what felt like forever. "So, Luna, how did you find us?" my dad said.
"Should I start from the beginning?" Luna asked.
"Please do." my dad replied.
"Well, my mother was only 20 when Reverie was destroyed. I don't know how, but she got out. It was really hard for her to survive but she did. Then she met my dad. He never told my mlm or me where he was from but my mom knew he wasn't from Reverie. After a while they had me, a little baby girl that they had to help survive in the wild which they did, obviously. I was only 13 when they were taken from me. Cannibals killed and ate them while I was hiding in a tree. I stayed up there till they left. I couldn't look at my parents, or, what used to be my parents, so I ran. I lived off of a knife that my dad made for me. I lived like that for almost 3 years. One day, I met a man who told me about a village. He told me where it was and I didn't stop till I found it. And here I am." Luna said.
My parents and I were just staring at her. "Did your dad have a tattoo on his arm?" my mom asked.
"Um, yeah. They kind of look like-" Luna started but stopped.
She was looking at my dad's arm. More specifically, his Seer markings. "They looked like that." Luna said pointing to my dad's arm.
