So hope I'm not boring you to death. Hope your still alive. Shootouts to MNC, Loki and Master of Cupcakes. Now onto the story.

Chapter 3: Lloyd...

It had been five months since the incident in the caverns. Everyone was happy setting up for the fall festival happening. Willow was doing better. Jay and Cole were becoming more and more like brothers. Zane and Luna have been hanging out more. Kai and Nye were setting up the festival with Koki and Suzanne. Wisp and Abby were helping out with the castle hall. And Nika, Zoe and Deliara were helping out by handing out invites.

Willow was also excited for the fall festival but it would be the first without Lloyd.

"This is gonna be the first year without him attending the fall festival." Willow sighed. "I really do wonder how he's doing..."

"Well you don't have to wonder for very long anymore!" A girl said.

"Huh?" Willow said turning around. "Jade!"

Willow ran up and hugged the sister of Lloyd.

"Its good to see you too Willow." Jade laughed.

"Wait.. what do you mean that I dont have to wonder for very long? And your a werewolf?" Willow asked.

" our family has been hiding this for a while. Now C'mon. Lets go inside." Jade said.

The two went inside and sat in the living room.

"So. The reason I came was to tell you that Lloyds doing fine." Jade said smiling.

"That's so good to hear." Willow replied. "I miss him so much..."

"He misses you too. He had been asleep for five months.." Jade said. "He can't stop talking about you."

"He.. Wait he's Awake!?" Willow exclaimed.

"He is. He woke up about a week ago. He tried to get up and see you when he woke up but he ended up hurting himself doing so..." Jade replied.

"Oh no.. is he okay?" Willow asked.

"He's fine physically. But he had been having the same nightmare for months. He honestly thought he failed at saving you." Jade replied. "He's still feeling that way."

"Oh no..." Willow said.

"But those are sad memories. That we should leave in the past. Also he asked me to give this to you." Jade said taking out a bag.

"For me?" Willow asked.

"Yup!" Jade said.

"Uh. Canny go into my room?" Willow asked.

"Sure." Jade said.

Willow ran up to her room and sat down on the floor with the plush next to her.

"What's that?" The plush asked.

"Its from Lloyd." Willow said. "Wait.. what's this?" Willow asked taking a letter out of the bag.

My dearest Willow,

I don't even know if you'll read this..

I can't even explain how dearly I miss you. I miss seeing your face. I miss hearing your voice. I miss you beyond words. I wish I could see you.. Its hard not being able to see your face and hear your voice in the morning. Just please stay strong for me. But how is everyone doing? Are the three girls still with you guys. Are Jay and Cole becoming more like brothers. Is Kai helping Nya with everything. Are Zane and Wisp supporting you? How is everyone? I miss you all. But I miss you the most my Willow Tree. My stupid snowflake.

Love,

Lloyd

PS: I gave you something from Phoenix Claw that Jade got.

Willow looked in the bag and saw a Willow Tree vine.

"Lloyd... I miss you so much.." Willow said tearing up.

"Be right back." ỳWillow said to the plush. "And don't touch my Willow Vine."

"Uh. I'm a plush. I can't really move." The plush said.

Willow ran to Jade.

"Please. Take me to him." Willow said.

"I'm sorry.. I can't.." Jade said. "Phoenix Claw is beautiful. But completely isolated. I can take a letter from you to him."

"Alright." Willow said wiping away her tears. "I'll be right back."

Willow ran upstairs and went to her writing desk.

Lloyd,

I miss you dearly too.. I love the Vine you gave me. Its beautiful. These five months have been difficult for me. Knowing that I hurt you. Knowing that I may never see your face again. But I know that I will. Zane, Wisp and Abby are supporting me. Jay and Cole are still becoming more and more like brothers. They still have friendly rivals. Mostly over food these days. Nika, Zoe and Deliara are still with us. Kai and Nya are helping each other out. We all miss you. Now I'm gonna keep this short so you can rest. I love you Lloyd. And no matter what. I'll always love you for you. Saber or not. I love you.

Love,

Your Willow Tree and Stupid snowflake

"There." Willow said.

Willow rushed downstairs and met Jade.

"Here. Oh and please give these to him as well." Willow said giving Jade the letter and the box of almond cookies.

"I'll make sure he gets these. Promise." Jade said.

Willow walked out with Jade and she watched Jade walk off.

"I miss you Lloyd... I love you.." Willow said.

Halo! Hope You enjoyed this chapter! I worked hard on this. Now I am going to give you a little insight to where the story will go in the near future after the fourth story or I might even make it in the forth story. Here's the little sneak peak: Willow and Lloyd are in for something huge. And the question for today is What do you think's gonna happen? Now I'm gonn keep this short. And I will try to post every day and also. I try to interact with you in the reviews so before you read the next chapter and I posted a review on this one see if I replied. I try to reply to everyone as much as I can. I also have a lot of work to do with these stories. But I will probably tell you how I write my stories at the end of this. Now I must go for now my friends. Goodbye.
