It's been a few years since I lived with Tulio and his friends. I'm 9 now and everything is still good. Juanin and Policarpo are still teaching me to be a news reporter, Patana and Hugo are dating (Hugo is planning to propose to her soon,) Mico is taking some time to be with us after his home caught on fire, Freddy is going on bike rides with me more often, Juan Carlos is starting a duet group with me and Tulio is doing his best to protect me but I never knew why. One night I heard Tulio and Juan Carlos talking so I took a peek.

"So Tulio, how's Luna?" Asked Juan Carlos.

"She's doing well." Said Tulio.

"I'm just happy she's alright. She and I started a duet group." Said Juan Carlos.

"That's nice." Said Tulio.

As I was about to leave I saw strange magic and I saw the truth... THEY WERE PUPPETS THE WHOLE TIME!!!

"It's good to be a puppet again." Said Tulio.

"Yeah. You never grow up and stay the same age." Said Juan Carlos.

"This is the life." Said Tulio.

At that moment I went in and they freaked out.

"Luna! We can explain!" Said Tulio.

"You don't need to." I said.

"What do you mean Luna?" Asked Juan Carlos.

"I wanna become one too!" I said.

"What?!" Cried Tulio and Juan Carlos.

"Please teach me the way of being you're breed." I said.

The boys huddled to talk about this issue.

"Do you think we can make her one of us?" Asked Juan Carlos.

"We'll have to try. I mean she knows now." Said Tulio.

"Ok then." Said Juan Carlos.

"Ok Luna. We made a decision and starting tomorrow we'll help you become a puppet." Said Tulio.

"YES!!!" I squealed.

Suddenly, everyone woke up.

"What happened?" They asked.

"We're gonna help Luna become a puppet." Said Juan Carlos.

"That explains it." Said Juanin.

That night I dreamed of what my life would be as a puppet.
