Anything Wrong?

~Luna

"Leave...?" Sage mumbled and almost immediately, I felt bad for asking. He doesn’t really have to come if he didn’t want to and his sister was still here. I couldn’t honestly ask him to just leave his sister. "You don't have to if you don't want to...” I said while looking down at my feet and he stayed silent.

"No...I want to go with you." Sage looked up at me and smiled. I was surprised. He would honestly go… just like that? Hopefully, he’ll ask his sister too… Either way, it made me feel a bit better.

"Do you know when you're leaving?" Sage asked and I shrugged. That seemed to still be going on between Rika and Moon.

"We aren't sure yet... Soon though,” I said, even though it was honestly a guess. It could be any day now. Sage went into his own thoughts for a little bit as I watched Rika and Moon play outside with Nathan. It was cute... I wonder if Rika and Moon would bring him along with them to the human world. It made me scared if they did… Who knows what that place is like now?

I jumped out of my thoughts as Sage spoke up. "Come on. Don't you want to see our little castle we made while the grownups talked?" He joked and I couldn’t help but laugh as he led me out the door to the backyard.

Sage and I played for a short time with Nathan, Rika, and Moon until Rika wanted to go inside because she said she wanted something to eat, yet I thought she ate before I came… That’s what Moon said anyways to me on the phone…

“I’ll be right back,” I said quickly to Moon and to Sage, but Sage could tell it was something else. Moon, I wasn’t sure if he noticed or not because he kept on playing with Nathan, but when I left, Moon struck up a conversation with Sage and I went over to Rika, who was getting a plate of sausage that was leftover from breakfast.
“Is something up?” I asked her and she jumped at the sound of my voice and almost winced but stopped herself.

“No, nothing is,” Rika said uneasily and I leaned against the island and looked at her.

“You smell different, Rika. Is something wrong?” Rika shook her head, trying to keep quiet and not talk by stuffing her face with sausage. It seemed I wasn’t going to get anywhere. “Well, if you want to talk about anything, just talk to me, okay?” She just nodded and I couldn’t she just didn’t want to tell me so I just shrugged it off and when I left the kitchen, Moon and Sage were coming and Sage turned to me once he noticed me.

“Hey, I’m going to head home,” Sage said and he seemed a little unnerved and I tilted my head. Maybe…

“Hey, you want me to come with you to try to help tell your sister? Just in case your sister yells or something?” I asked and he just nodded a lot so I went over to him and we left the house, we saying goodbye to Moon and Rika with Nathan running back inside and saying goodbye and we headed over to Sage’s house and I could hear footsteps moving about and I could tell it was Spinner’s.

Sage took a deep breath before opening the door.

“Spinner? Can we talk?”
