Epilogue

The sun was shining down on the island as the life that had been stolen from it spread from one plant to the next, brightening the land an inch at a time. Lahela smiled as she watched everything from her spot on top of the cliff. She had settled there only a few minutes earlier.

Once she and Moana had gotten close enough to the island, Lahela parted ways with her. The goddess had no intention of being there when Moana reunited with her family. It didn't mean she wouldn't keep an eye on events from a distance though. Hopefully everything worked out for Moana. She deserved it after what she did.

Lahela watched for a moment as Moana hugged her parents as the village quickly began to gather around. She smiled for her before turning to walk around the island. Just as she expected, hidden in a crevice on the far side of the island that rarely received attention, sat her boat. She suspected that might chance soon. After all, the cave the village ancestors' boats were stored in was not too far away. If they were willing to walk the distance, it would be found.

A few days passed before the goddess was ready to head out. There was just one thing she needed to do. As expected, Moana was helping her village get ready to use their ancestors' boats. During that time, the girl looked over and caught a glimpse of the goddess as she walked away, disappearing into the scenery.

Moana followed, trying to keep an eye out for her. When she finally caught up, she found Lahela leaning again a boat she had never seen before. "Are you leaving?"

"Yep, I wouldn't feel right if I left without saying bye though. Not after lurking for the past few days," she said lightly.

"I'm glad. We'll be leaving soon as well. Of course, getting a village ready to head out at sea takes time." Moana walked over to her boat as she looked it over.

Lahela ran a hand through her hair as she looked towards the ocean. "I'm sorry for the trouble I caused when we first started. Perhaps I'll start having a higher opinion of humans."

"No," Moana said as she suddenly hugged the goddess. "Thank you. I don't know how I would have gotten through all that without you."

Lahela hugged her back. "Call if you ever need anything. Who knows, maybe we'll run into each other on new island." She pulled away as she stepped onto her boat. "Now go show that village what you're made of. I expect to hear stories of the amazing chief you will be in the future."

"You as well. People should know about the Goddess of Storms that helped save the world from Te Ka."

She laughed as she started pushing the boat farther into the water with her wind. "Perhaps someday. Take care, Moana!" She waved as she sailed off, her smile mirroring Moana's as she did the same.

Lahela took a breath as she stepped off her boat. According to several sources, one of them being the Ocean, Maui was currently somewhere on this island. If only there weren't multiple miles to cover while looking for him. No giant hawks circling overhead. No voices yelling. No one talking about their own accomplishments. Overall, it was quiet without a clue where he would be.

There was no point in wasting more time though. Determined to find the demigod, she started walking off while occasionally calling out his name. Lahela felt like she had been out there for nearly an hour already. She might just wreck the place with a storm if it turned out to be the wrong place.

The goddess huffed in annoyance as she continued to stomp across the island. Suddenly, something streaked by overhead before crashing down in front of her. She yelped as she jumped back, staring at Maui.

"What in the world are you doing besides scaring all the animals?" Maui asked.

"Looking for you!" She yelled as she pointed at him. "I was told you were here but this is a big island to find you on!"

Maui simply laughed, unaffected by her yelling. "Looking for me, huh?" He raised an eyebrow at her, knowing she'd probably get flustered by his words.

"Yes," she said and crossed her arms, choosing not to say anything else.

He stepped closer as he leaned in towards her face. "And why would you be looking for me?"

"Because! You're the one that… I said I would take you up on the offer!" She looked away as she glared at a tree.

"What offer?"

"Oh, forget it." Lahela turned around to walk away. She was done letting him get her so worked up. For goodness sake, she was the goddess of storms! She didn't need to be blushing over stupid things!

Maui laughed as he grabbed her hand, halting her steps. "Just admit you missed me already."

"No."

The demigod shook his head. "Well, you're welcome to stay. At least I'll have more company than just mini-Maui."

Lahela rolled her eyes as she tried to contain her smile, though it was failing. "Good, then you're stuck with me for now. So where to?"

Maui threw his arm over her shoulder as they started walking. "Everywhere. Let's go check on that world we saved."

~ The End

Oh my goodness, it's been such a pleasure working on this story. I'm still surprised I got it wrapped up so quickly. But now we get to move on to even more adventures. I also plan on rewriting this once I can buy the movie. There's a lot I want to fix and add, but I suppose it can wait for now. Until next time!

In Eye of the Storm! More problems arise that need addressed, along with feelings that Lahela would prefer just ignoring.
