His Quiet And Used Luna

41

*Ruyi*

"Aislinn." I say quietly when I see her crying. She looks up at me. 

"What's the matter kiddo?" She looks away. 

"I had a nightmare. For two weeks I had to listen to Ami screaming. She was whipped once because she took it for me. They wanted to hurt me on Cameron's orders to get back at you. Ami got in there way and took it for me. The amount of times they hit her... I would have died Rue Rue. I'm only nine and they would have killed me. Ami saved my life and I've always done things to bother her. Even then she still loves me. I'm a bad person." 

I knelt in front of her. 

"Linn, you are not a bad person. You did what all little sisters do. Annoy the older one. Ami is just a principled person. She takes after your mom; just like you eventually will. She saved you because she thinks you deserve to live. Aislinn, she is your big sister and it is in her genes to protect and love you until the day you no longer need her protection. I promise you, she will never regret saving you. What you need to do is go to her and thank her for saving you. That will prove to her that you know she loves you." 

Aislinn looks up at me, 

"Ruyi, thank you. So much." I nod with a smile. 

"Isn't this cute." My sister says. 

(Editor, if you remember the sister's name could you change it? Also while I'm thinking about it, big shout out to @deliriouszhi for being my editor!)

(editor note: my heart is melting  ☜(⌒▽⌒)☞) 

"What do you want, Eliza?" I demand. She laughs. 

"Doesn't that girl you failed to kill need my help? Since, she apparently is unable to save herself despite being a direct descendant of the Moon Goddess herself." She rolls her eyes and Aislinn growls. 

"Don't. Speak. Bad. About. My. Mother!" 

Eliza visibly flinches. 

"What the hell did you just do?" She asks, bewildered. I smirk. 

"Someone apparently hasn't been ordered around by a Goddess's granddaughter. Her eyes widen. 

"Y-you're Josie's d-daughter?" Aislinn nods, a glare still prominent on her face. Suddenly a scream breaks through the pack house. Aislinn jumps up. 

"Ami!" Is all she yells before running out and down to where Ami is being taken care of. She manages to get there before everyone. By the time I am there she is holding Ami as she cried. I walk in followed by Josie, Josh, Dean, Dawn, Em, and Leo. 

"Aislinn. I'm so sorry. I-in my dream I-I was unable to protect you. I'm so sorry." Aislinn looks into Ami's eyes. 

"That was just a dream. That isn't what really happened. In reality, you did save me. You took the pain I should have had. You took it because you didn't want me to be in pain. Did you know, if you didn't I would have been dead? You saved my life by putting yours on the line. Ami, you have nothing to be sorry for. You did everything you possibly could." Ami just stares at her for a moment before wrapping her arms around Aislinn tightly.

"You are so grown up for your age. Remind me to take you somewhere to celebrate getting out alive." Aislinn blinks up at her. 

"What about the others?" Ami smiles. 

"We both know they would never have laid a hand on the others unless it was to get me to listen. I would have listened even without the threat. They were trying to hurt you numerous times. You don't know how many times I had to fight them off while you slept."

"Is that why you never slept when I was there?" Ami nods. 

"I wasn't going to let those bastards hurt you. Look a what they did to me... They were going to force me to be queen and they hurt me this much. In their eyes all you were was a pawn. They would not have hesitated to kill you." Her face takes on a grim look. "I killed a couple of them." She whispers. 

"I didn't want to, but it was my only way to save you." The two girls never look at anyone besides each other. "Now I have these hideous scars, but it was so worth it to save your life." 

Aislinn does something that shocks us all. She kisses each and every scar, bruise, and cut. She kissed the words on her forehead, the cuts on her arms, the bruises on her face. She kissed them all. 

Not skipping a single one. 

Then she closes her eyes and takes a deep breath. Slowly the scars, bruises, and cuts all disappeared one by one until there were none left. She blew the air out and we hear a scream. A few minutes later a guard drags in a boy. 

"Fox!" Ami yells. I look at Aislinn. 

"You're a pain trader."
