I was kind of glad Luna was coming with me... As I opened the door I looked around and called to her again. I sighed, she could be so stubborn sometimes, "Silveta, come on, don't ignore me. You're being rude by not coming to see Luna." I called again using her real name.
"Up here," I heard foot steeps "I'll be down in a sec." We waited until she appeared at the top of the stairs. She sighed, "It's about time you got back here, I thought you said you were only going out for a little while." she asked as she walked down the stairs.
She nodded to Luna, "So what can i do for ya?" she asked happily. "Uhhh...." I glanced at Luna and she smiled with reinsurance. "You see..... The thing is...." She narrowed her eyes and put her hand on her hip, "What did I tell you? Just get to the point already."
I nodded. "It's about the human world." she frowned, "What about that disgusting place?" I knew she wasn't in the best mood right now, but I couldn't stop now... "You see...." I fidgeted, "Some others... They're going back..." She raised her eye brow surprised, "Oooookay. That's great.. Thanks for sharing.." I guess she wasn't catching on. "And Moon and his wife are going." she nodded. "I can see that. I knew Rika would go back eventually." I knew she was probably referring to the fact of Rika's past. I had found out once and made the mistake of telling her.
Motioning towards Luna I started again, "Luna's going too." Spinner frowned, "I'm sorry to hear that." she said like she had just heard the worst news in the world. She really wasn't catching on.... "And I wanted to go with them."
At first she didn't react. I shrunk back, I knew it was coming though, "SAGE YOU'RE SUCH A MORON! NO WAY IN HELL I'M LETTING YOU GO BACK TO THAT... THAT PLACE!" She was really mad now... I could see that she had let go of keeping a more human form and the other eyes she usually kept hidden now opened since she was a spider half breed. Spinner narrowed her eyes. "Why would you even THINK of doing that?! Back to that disgusting world? Why would you!" I could see her fangs now.
She looked at Luna, "It's because of HER isn't it?! You shouldn't be such a pushover! You don't have to do everything someone says!!!" I saw Luna flinch back and I took a steep forward towards my sister. "How can you even say that?" I asked calmly, "I'm going because I want to, not because someone pressured me into it."
Spinner continued to glare before she turned away annoyed, "Fine, go off, have your little fun. But don't you dare come running back to me... In fact, don't even bother to come back at all."
I stood there stunned as she walked back towards the stairs up to her room. "Sage.." I Luna whispered. Sighing I turned towards her and smiled, "It's not your fault Luna. I can't stay here forever." I looked back towards the stairs before turning to leave. "Come on, I'll walk you back home."

I sat bored on my bed flipping through my contacts on my phone. I had managed to get my brother after a while, but as soon as he heard we were leaving he hung up and I took that as he was going to stay. I really did have very many people's numbers. I hope we would be able to get in touch.
Sitting up I started to type a message.
"Hay its sky. we r meeting @ the daily grind tomorrow for lunch. noon sound fine? we just need 2 talk about what we r doing. fwd this to others u think might want to leave."
I hit send and flipped my phone shut. I crossed my arms and lay back down on my bed thinking about what had happened to the world. I wonder if it had gotten any better.. Or if it was worse.
I couldn't stop thinking about it until I heard a knock on the door I jumped and sat up slowly, "It's open." I called as my sister opened the door. "There you are! Slacker.." she mumbled, "Come on, we need some help and since it looks like you aren't doing much here, you can take my place and I'll go get food for tonight." she closed the door as I flopped down on my bed.
Sometimes I wished I had moved out, but how could I? I hadn't seen them in years and now there they were... I guess I had just forgotten how annoying they really were..
Getting up, I went to go and help.
*Tomorrow at the Daily Grind*
I walked into the small cafe and smiled. I always loved coming here. I went and took a seat next to the window as I waited to see if anyone would actually show up.

I had been sleeping soundly... When... "Mommy! Mommy!" I heard laughing and opened one of my eyes. "Your phone went ding ding!" he laughed again and gave it to me. I sat up and pulled Nathan up on my lap and smiled at him while I looked at my phone. It was a FWD from Luna. I tipped my head to the side confused as Nathan looked at my phone, "From Auntie Luna?" he questioned and I nodded. "Yes that's right." I opened the message.
The original was from Sky it looked like. I had run into Sky a few times here, but I tended to avoid others we traveled with in case there was still bad blood about what I had done...
Nathan looked up at me confused. "Who is Sky?" I smiled, "She traveled with mommy while we were on our way to Harmony." I told him and he seemed to brighten up, "She's the one in the story! The cat! The cat!" he exclaimed and I laughed. So he did remember her from the story.
"That's right. She's the kitty." he smiled, "Tell me another story!" I thought for a moment. "Okay then.." I smiled and began.
"Once when your father and I were trying to get to Harmony, we got separated," Nathan gasped and waited for me to go on, "The cave had started to fall apart and we had to go through all these small tunnels." Nathan frowned, "Why did daddy leave?" I shook my head, "He didn't mean to, but he was worried about your Aunt Luna so he went back to make sure she was okay."
"I see!" he exclaimed happily. "So, I followed the tunnel and we ended up in the maze where we had to go around. It seemed like forever, but I did find him again. "Cause you love each other, right!"
"That's right," I turned around and realized Moon had been listening. I blushed, but continued. "He's right. We found each other again because we loved each other so much." after a moment, Nathan realized I wasn't going to continue and frowned, "What happened next?" I laughed and patted his head, "Another day I'll tell you about the maze and the fish who lead us through it." I said remembering out "guide" Sen... I still wonder what had happened to him...
"No faiirrrr!" he turned around and looked at Moon, "Daddy! Will you tell me the rest?" Moon laughed and came over and picked him up, "but your mother is so much better at telling you the stories. Like she said, that's a story for another day."
He put Nathan down. I could tell he wasn't happy, but he got over it soon once he saw the time and went off running to watch his favorite show. Moon smiled and walked over and gently kissed me. I smiled and kissed him back.
Looking up at him I held my phone up, "So, did you get the message from your sister?" he nodded. "I guess we aren't the only ones who are thinking of leaving."
