Lunar Chronicles Fan-fiction 2 : The revolution

Part 13: Cinder

Sorry for not posting. Enjoy this next part

Cinder might know how Kai might have felt after what happened at the ball. She's sitting in the cockpit, looking out at the planet that she was born in, but never got to really know well. After what Winter has told her about her mom, Levana, her old relationship with Winter when they were toddlers, and all the things about how she was suppose to be dead were enough information to make her so nervous about this revolution that she is planning to start any time soon to keep her from sleeping when she gets the chance to.

        Then an idea popped into her head and she went to go find someone to tell this idea to. So Cinder left the cockpit to hopefully run into someone like Kai or Iko to tell this idea of hers. As she was walking down the hall until she ran into Winter, again. Just looking at her, Cinder could tell that she was in the shower because her hair is wet and she's in clean clothes. This is something that just happens to be naturally awkward since their last talk. Now that Cinder knows that they have known each other as toddlers when Cinder was known as Selene.

        Winter simply said, "Hey, Selene. Is there something you need?"

        Cinder was a little shocked that she called her Selene. She responded, "I kind of got an idea that I think I need to call a meeting in the cargo bay for. It's got to do with the revolution mainly, but I think people should know. Would you mind helping me getting people to the cargo bay?"

        Winter said, "No problem" and she went to the next room and Cinder heard her in the distance saying, "Selene's calling for a meeting in the cargo bay."

         Cinder walked down the hall towards the cargo bay and when she sat on one of the boxes, people started coming in. Everyone came in and sat in other boxes to where they are facing her. Well, everyone except Jacin because Thorne interogated him and half the things Jacin said was a complete lie. He did tell the queen about her plans and other things too. Now, the guys more like they're hostage/prisoner that Cinder could careless about right now.

        When she saw everyone settled down, she started her meeting by explaning her theories, or ideas, that she has came up with. "I realized that I don't know much about a revolution..."

        "We kind of know that." Thorne interupted.

        Cinder looked at him for a second, then continued with her explanation. "And the thing that has came across my mind is that, I'm planning a revolution for a planet that I'm suppose to rule when I barely know how it's like there. Besides the whole getting Winter and Jacin aboard the ship mission, I haven't really been on Luna since the fire. What Winter has told me is that before Levana took her to her doctor appointment that day, she told the nanny to put me in my nap and to light a candle that put the room on fire and almost killed me. 

        For years since the fire, Levana officially ruled Luna and told people that I was dead. Anyway, I know that we need some supplies and there are no mirrors on Luna. I think Winter, Wolf, and I should go down to the city of..."

        "Artemisia. It's Luna's capital city. It's mostly full of aristocrats that have known Levana's family, the Blackburn royal family, for so many years that they would take her side in the heart beat when this revolution happens." Winter pointed out.

        "My real last name is Blackburn?" Cinder asked.

        "When I think about you sometimes, I used to look at all the things, like documents and old drawings we used to do, and your full name from your birth certificate is Princess Selene Channary Jannali Blackburn." Winter said.

        Cinder looked puzzled as if this was the first time she heard her full name. She saw from her portscreen that she was really named that. Still puzzled and confused though, she asked, "I was named after my mother? Really?"

        "Not just your mother, but also your grandmother who was the queen before Channary was. Otherwise, you are named after your mother. And just in case, no one knows who your father is at all. Channary has sleeped with so many men when she was a princes onto when she was a queen before her death, that she isn't quite sure who she did it with that ended up getting her pregnant with you." She stated.

        "I'm confused," Kai said.

        "Yeah, just in case you two need to know is that there are other people in this room too. Most of us are confused." Thorne pointed out in his normal sarcastic tone.

        Cinder knew that they were still there sitting on boxes and listening to her conversation with Winter. Man, she isn't sure that it was a good idea for her to have brought a long Winter on board the ship. She then said, "Things Winter are saying are helpful in my benefit, but not in our benefit, well not quite yet. Besides that, is my idea to go with Wolf and Winter to get supplies and to get to know Luna a stupid idea or an ok one?"

        "Suggestion," Wolf spoke, "don't go to Artemisia. If you want real hell for your visit and to not get caught by Levana, do it in the outer domes. Like the lumber dome or the manufacture dome, or any of the working domes. You will likely see angry torture people in those domes who will really hate what Levana has done to them."

        Cinder asked, "Were you from one of those domes?" She figured that she should ask because it sounded like Wolf was from one of those domes he had meantioned.

        Wolf responded, "Yeah, I was from the manufacture dome. The one with almost all the factories. It was my home, where my childhood was."

        Cinder declared, "Say no more. Since you know that dome, I guess that's the one we will go to for supplies. I would go to Artemisia, but I'm not the best with aristocrats and anyone who is rich and I don't want to deal with Levana this early." She paused in hopes someone would say something. When no one said anything, she ended the meeting. When she got the chance, she ran up to Wolf and asked, "Do you think we could practice the glamour before we land onto Luna again?"

        "Ok, sure," He agreed, "but I'm kind of hungry and I don't want to practice with you on an empty stomach."

        "Understood," She said. Then she turned around and went to the cargo bay to see if they need things that are not in the boxes.
