Chapter 6, here we go!
"Vasilis and I were always adventurers, even before we gained our near immortality. We have always been historians. We had heard of Luna Lapidus Mortis in old stories. We spent 120 years hunting it down." Drew stopped suddenly. She looked over to Vasilis, and signaled for him to continue the story.
"Wait!" Miranda said suddenly. They all looked at her and wondered what she had to say now. "I just realized something." she started. "You're married to a Cryptid." Miranda pointed out.
Everyone but Drew and Argost suddenly had strange expressions on their faces. They were a mixture of disgust, how did we miss that, and just plain what the hell.
"So" said Drew.
"Well technically he's not human. Wait, wouldn't that make your marriage null and void." Said Doc. Drew raised her eyebrow, as if she couldn't believe he had just said that.
"Wait, if you two were actually married, wouldn't that make your and dad's marriage illegal or something?" Zak pointed out.
"It's really complicated and I'd rather not get into it." Drew said, trying to get off of the topic.
"Fine, we will discuss this later," Doc said crossing his arms.
"Okay, well as I was going to say we eventually found it, in a concealed Egyptian pyramid. That still has not been rediscovered by mankind to this day. Unfortunately the part of the legend about Luna Lapidus Mortis being dangerous had been conveniently left out." he said angrily.
"Wait," said Zak. "If this thing is so dangerous, why do you still have it?" questioned Zak, eying the moonstone in his mother's hand.
"It's not activated right now." Drew said. "If it was activated it would be glowing and it would make you feel happy and at peace." she told them.
"Yes, that is the trick of Luna Lapidus Mortis. It makes you fell amazing, so that you never want to let it go. And when you finally do it reveals what it has done." he said, sadly shaking his head.
"Okay, so why would dark mystics create something like that?" asked Doc.
"We never did find that out." said Argost. "It was probably just there way of screwing with the world." he snarled.
"Vasilis" Drew said softly.
"No!" he shouted, making them all jump slightly. "Before that thing came into our lives," He pointed at the stone angrily. "We didn't have a care in the world! We were free, we were happy! I want nothing to do with that!" he yelled. He ran toward the edge of the balcony outside the living room and jumped over the railing. Drew feet a sharp pain in her feet and hissed.
"Vasilis!" she yelled running to the railing. But he was nowhere to be seen.
There was a sudden beeping from across the room. Doc walked over to the computer and hit a few buttons.
"A cryptid is rampaging through Rome, Italy." He announced. Drew's head snapped over to look at Doc.
"This may not be the right time." said Professor Muzuki.
"No, let's go." said Drew. They all looked at her surprised.
"This Cryptid could be involved with Luna Lapidus Mortis. Since it is in my Rome, my rightful home." she explained.
"Well, let's go!" yelled Zak, running toward the navigation room. Drew rolled her eyes and followed her son.
