Stars

Light gaze at the night sky leaning on her back standing with both hands crossed while waiting for Hope making a call, *clang*, her gaze shift at the sound as she turn around immediately to see him taking of the cabin, looking at his pale face expecting answer,

he sit bewildered "Man answered, " his hands move explaining "my,,, !" as he fight for breath "and,,, " he gasped looking up at Light standing beside him waiting to hear the rest, closing his eyes he shake his head "he say he's taking first bus,,,," his eyes fall to the ground "will be here for a hour or so, "

"well that's great" she slap him over his shoulder to lift him up a bit, he give a faint smile looking at her "only station I know here is", pointing direction they first arrived here, and before he finish his sentence Light take his hand and pull him up with a smile "shall we then?" and so they start walking toward station,

They were walking fast, their shadows continue to stride without a sound, illuminated by rare street lights, there was not much to see but that was ok, remembering the scenery when they first arrived here, it was enough to make a mental map and make orientation easier, noticing lack of traffic or people in the streets in this hour Light remember this town is a small place with lot of greenery and small houses more like a country place than city of hi tech lost civilization they could remember,,, it takes time to get used to this,,, change?! and lack of noise, is this,,, peace? Light wonder glancing at Hope grim face,

in a short time they arrived to deserted station. Just like she remember there were not much to see except few benches, billboard with a tag "Station" and few advertise boards on short buildings, it seems the two of them were only one present except few workers doing night shift, and after approaching one in cabin selling tickets to ask for bus regime, they waited for bus arrival. Hope was sitting on a bench staring to the ground, wordless, and Light who was walking all this time marched up and down this place and pretty much know every stone on this path finally seems to get tired and sit beside Hope on the other end of the bench, staring at the sky with her hands folded, wth? her brow arched frowning, with a tingle of irritation, what take her attention making her nervous,,,, was,,, something strange she noticed from the moment they arrived here, or she notice first time they were alone? walking with Hope and later while waiting for him to make a call,,, that's when she see it for the first time, and start wondering what could it be? she couldn't determine how close or far they are and on top of that it seems to follow her everywhere she go? that makes her bit annoyed, there seems to be so many of them?! wondering what are those little lights on the sky? but now she was even more confused, noticing something new, her hands unfold and fall beside her, this seems much closer,,,, why is it so big? her eyes wide open gazing at the bright sphere of faint cold light hovering calmly on the sky above them,

"Stars,,," faint voice bring her back,

"What?" she turn to look at him, their eyes meet only for a second bright green meet the cold blue, her big pale eyes wide in confusion, she glanced up again, Hope sighed noticing her bewildered gaze glued at the night sky,

"It's called Moon and the Stars" saying with a wry smile,

She blinked, gazing up, unfocused,

"Can you see that shiny lights over there,,," he continue explaining pointing at the small shiny dots at the night sky, leaning forward to get a better look at her perspective, holding on his hand not to fall over, "they are named stars, connected by imaginary lines giving specific shapes named constellations,,, " their cheeks almost touching,

"Con-ste-l-what?" she repeated in confusion, her gaze slid from the star on top of his finger stopping on his eyes, those were same as she remember somehow that make her feel comfort ,

"that's just stupid!" She blurt it out, "that dots can be connected anyway you want to make anything you wish!" saying that in one breath she stand up abruptly, looking up persistently,

Hope smile, his hand fall as he yanked back "well, I think so to, but that's how it is, so deal with it,"

Well, if you put it that way,

"I'm sure you see this when we were on Pulse? Vanille and Fang give explanation on that, can you remember?" giving one bewildered look at his question she continue to look up,

unfazed he continue with definition "each star is a massive, luminous sphere of plasma held together by its own gravity. One we see during the day is closest to this planet and called ,,," did I her that before? wondering, she glanced up, her mind franticly searching through her memory, I probably learn about that stuff in school,,, if so I must be absent or sleeping that day, sec is more probably, as her thinking was scrambled without result, boy you really like to talk much don't you? she turn around

glancing at Hope as he continue without interruption "it gives energy to this planet. Other stars are visible from this planet during the night, appearing as a multitude of fixed luminous points due to their immense distance. Historically, the most prominent stars were grouped into constellations and asterism and the brightest stars gained proper names. All this phenomena are observed over the centuries and data gathered is available for public view with along with catalog of stars and constellations" she smirked noticing he is back to himself again, then her fingertip touch her chin remembering something,

"Wait! Vanille and Fang actually say that?" cutting with one sharp look,

Hope smiled, ok, you got me there " Maybe not exact word,,, this is something I pick up while waiting here,"

"Hmph?!" she turn around at the sound of the braking noise and next moment her hand reach up reflexively covering her eyes blinking to adjust to strong light, as they were both illuminated by strong traffic light, she stand up with hand over her face, Hope follows up, their breathing stops with two persons coming out of the bus,

ah! Hope eyes widen in surprise his face pale and eyes glossy in dead silence,

two silhouette stopped in front of him for a moment before getting closer "father!" hope muttered and stop of words, as she turn around second person was now clearly visible, oh! falling in an embrace family finally reunited,

"I'm so glad to see you again!"

Light standing little farther away wordless, bracing herself for thin air not to fall from surprise, staring at Hope embracing the two person they welcomed, she turn around to give them some space, conversation was incoherent and shaken by tears of joy, it was long before without anyone say a word,

"this must be Light we hear so much about you!" women's cheerful voice rings trough night, Light smile at women as Hope introduced her,

" and this are my,,, parents" he finally say it, Light look at him standing beside and two smiling faces before her remembering to bow in greeting and say something, from everything possible this was,,,, she could see by Hope expression even more bewildered his eyes glancing from one to another staring blankly with mouth half open, now feeling under full impact of words he hear long time ago still clearly ringing in his mind "change the future,,, change the past,,," was it Serah who say that?" nodding to his father in somehow awkward situation, as they already introduced in a way, and after introducing to his mother, dazzled Light was taken in warm embrace as well, they talked and embrace, After a warm reunion they finally remember to start walking together of the station toward the beach houses, as someone finally suggested,

and with each step story unfold, revealing some abnormalities as well, apparently they had *alternate history* here in *this world*, and events they remember regarding Cocoon and old world were sometimes inconsistent or different, for all they know they were separated from his soon for a while but are reunited again and that was all what's important, Light listen in wonder for a while speechless as they reach their destination, Hope take key he find earlier it was perfect match, opening the door for his parents to enter, before saying good night Light glanced at Hope and start walking toward her place, while Hope stay with his parents casting one look after her,

walking of in long quick steps she turn around to see Hope entering the doorways with his parents, something constrict in her chest, around her heart and she start walking faster, faster, until she was running,

Faster.

Far away from here.

Hope look again one more time before closing the doors, but he couldn't see Light, she was already gone, she's probably already reach her place, he think that while closing the door ready for a long talk.
