Chapter 6 - Luna's first smile, first Laugh, And Second Memory
After Luna's first memory returned and she blacked out from the pain and Rick took her back to her room but he does the weirdest thing and kisses Luna on the forehead but is confused why he did that and decides to brush it off.
So morning had finally come and Luna had finally woken up. She was sitting at the edge of her bed thinking about the memory that she had recovered last night.
"Who was that boy and why did he say lets start over when I said we can't because he cheated on me." Luna said in a quiet voice but what got to her was near the end of the memory when she saw the boy hold his arm up like he was ready to take a swing at her.
"It looks like remembering will be really hard and painful but I need to remember cus who know what's happening to my real body I am so confused." Luna said as she got up and looked out the window still thinking about her first memory and soon decides to stop thinking about it for the time being and soon leaves her room and heads down for breakfast.
Down in the lower pit Rick was talking with the crew,
"Okay gang listen up we can't bring up what happened last night to Luna." Rick yelled to everyone.
"Why, maybe we can help her remember because the sooner she remembers the better if you ask me." Don said with a stern face
"But after I talked to Satis last night about it and what would happen if did that and he said there was a good chance that she might die from it cus her real body as it turns out is alive still somewhere else." Stan said to everyone all worried about Don Wei's idea
"So then we won't do that and let her remember on her own little at a time because we can't risk her life cus where ever her body there are bound to be people worried about her." Rick added and of course Don wasn't happy about that because he wanted her out of there sooner because he believed that she was nothing but a distraction to his whole team when really she would just sit in the corner and watch with lifeless eyes.
"Hey since we don't have to race today why don't one of use do something fun with her you know try to help her forget about that memory and make her happy." Koji said all of a sudden.
"You know what that's not a bad Idea Koji lets do it." Rick said all happy and then Luna came in the room.
"Lets do what Rick?" Luna said all confused and tired from last night.
"We thought since we have no races today that we should ought to go and have some fun." Rick smiled at her and Luna just looked at him with blank eyes but soon agreed to go with him and of course Stan, Koji, Jordan, and Eva went into town with Rick and Luna.
Once they got to town they sort of ended up splitting up into groups. Eva an Jordan went to look at some of the stores, Stan and Koji decided to look around for part that they could use to fix the whizzing arrow after the accident with Toros, last but not least there was Rick and Luna who decided to go into a jewelry store because Rick mainly wanted to find her something to let her know that he will be there when she was in pain.
Luna just looked at most of the jewelry but one piece stood out the most. It was a bracelet with a black band with different kinds of charms that were shaped like the different kinds of flowers that you would see on Earth. Rick soon noticed that Luna was looking at the bracelet,
"Do you like that bracelet Luna?" Rick asked while standing behind her and she got scared when he said something without her knowing.
"Rick you scared me, umm yes I was looking at this bracelet because I thought it was pretty." Luna said as she put her attention back on the Bracelet and Rick soon had a smile on his face and takes the bracelet fro the stand that it was on and Luna was shocked.
"Rick what are you doing?" Luna said very confused but Rick didn't listen he went right up to the person he had to pay and purchased the bracelet and hands it to Luna.
"Here."
"Rick you didn't have to do that I mean I was just fine looking at it."
"I know but I also could tell that you really liked it so I thought you deserved it." and as Rick said that he placed the bracelet on her wrist. Luna looked at the bracelet on her wrist and did a small smile.
"Thank you Rick that's really nice of you."
"Wow now that is a surprise."
"What is Rick?" Rick just laughed
"Luna did you know that you actually smiles for the first time since you been here."
"Oh really I didn't noticed." Luna said as she smiles and started to laugh
"Now I get to hear your laugh for the first time to wow I'm really lucky today." Rick laughed along with her and they soon left the store and soon meet up with the rest of the gang and they were also surprised to see her smiling and laughing but it only made them happy to know that she had forgotten the memory she had last night.
After awhile everyone started to get hungry so they decided to get something to eat but once they got there a problem struck up. Where they decided to go eat they say Aikka and Canaan not far eating and when Aikka saw them he just glares at Eva and she just turned her head away. But Luna put her hand on her shoulder and lead her to their table and ordered what they wanted. (to let you know that's not the problem the problem should be coming in just a minute) After they got their food two racers decided to start yelling at each other about the last race they had against each other.
"Oh dear this doesn't look good, Stan, Koji, Jordan come on give me a hand." Rick said as he got up and lead the others so they could stop the fight while Eva and Luna just sit at their seats waiting for them to come back. But soon the fight got worse, when Rick went over there to talk to the two racers to stop but it soon turned into a fist fight.
"Oh great just when you hope this fight wouldn't happen it happens just our luck huh Luna." Eva said as she looked at Luna but see her in a trance. "Uh Luna you okay…Luna." but Luna didn't pay attention she was to busy watching the fight namely on how Rick started to use boxing moves on one of the racers.
"Those moves they look so familiar where have I seen those boxing moves?" Luna thought but soon her head started to pound again.
"Oh no. not again, please not again." her head was pounding like crazy, her hands were to her head and she started to breath hard she knew what was going on, another one of her memories were coming back to her.
"Rick help me Please…Rick!" Luna just started to yell and lucky for her Rick heard her and saw that she was in pain.
"Oh no Luna!!" Rick yelled as he ran over to her.
"Luna are you okay. Luna!!!" Rick said very worried as he held on to her, but Luna was starting lose it she no long could stand the pain her head. While that was going on along with the fight which Stan, Koji, and Jordan were able to get out of. Aikka noticed Luna's weird behavior and soon remember what Satis said about when she starts regaining her memories that it would be painful.
"Hmm… I wonder if Luna is starting to recover some of her memories."
"Who knows Prince Aikka but its none of our concern after all the Earth team can't be trusted." Canaan said as he drank his tea
"Yes I know Canaan but still."
"Aikka listen its nothing for us to worry about okay." Canaan said a little annoyed
"Forgive me master." Aikka said as he bowed to his fencing master and looks over to see that Rick is taking Luna out of the restaurant along with the other.
Rick was caring Luna back to the pit but on the way she started to have a flash back on her memory that had just returned to her.
--Flashback---
Luna was at a school's competition room where a bunch of boys were boxing.
"What am I doing here, what does this memory mean?" Luna thought until she saw herself cheering on one of the guys boxing.
"Yeah got Tai you can do, you're the champion of boxing!!"
Soon the match was over and a boy comes right up to her smiling.
"Well that match was hard but thanks to you I was able to win."
"Well what are girlfriends for Tai." She said smiling
"Yeah that's why I love you." the vision soon started to fade and the last thing she saw was when the boy that she called Tai hugged and kissed her.
--EndofFlashback--
Luna had passed out from the pain in her head again after regaining her second memory and Rick was able to bring her back to the pit and lay her in bed to get some sleep and also for her to relax from the pain again.
"Just when you think we finally got her happy and forgotten the pain earlier on this happens." Rick said tucking her in bed
"It happens Rick we just can't predict when it happens so all we can do is try to stay by her side." Koji said
"Yeah your right Koji but for some odd reason I can't stand seeing her so much pain probably more then you guys."
Everyone was quiet cus there never seen Rick like this at all, but after awhile everyone left Luna's room except Rick he decided to stay by her side for awhile stroking her hand where her bracelet and he looked at it for a second and looked at her sleeping face.
"Luna no matter what I will be by your side keeping you safe and to keep the pain away." Rick said as he sat there for the rest of the day.
