If Shadow Moon had a car...... XD ⬆️
Outside in the garden...
"You have such a beautiful garden here. I can see how much you like creating flowers," Alex mentioned as Luna skipped around the garden.
"Oh, I do!! I made all these flowers over here!! And here too! And down here," Luna pointed to ALL of the garden.
"Hm. How sweet. You're so full of energy," Alex smiled.
"Yeah, I am!! Haha!" Luna giggled.
"I wanna dance!!" she added, spinning around the garden.
"Hm. You're gonna dance on your own?" Alex asked.
"You can dance with me!" Luna offered.
"I'm quite alright. It's been too long since I danced with someone," Alex mentioned.
"Really? Who did you dance with?" Luna asked in a giggle, still spinning.
"My wife, Rosaline," Alex smiled.
"Uh..." Luna's energy soon dropped as she realised she had once again crossed into the sensitive topic of family.
"You don't dance with her anymore?" Luna asked.
"Well, I haven't seen her in years," Alex explained.
"Oh... how come?" Luna asked.
"We had a bit of a difference in opinion. She wanted to dance... I wanted to study," Alex explained.
"So... you broke up???" Luna assumed, tears in her eyes.
"Sometimes relationships just don't work out like that," Alex pointed out.
"But what about Willow? Isn't he... your son?" Luna asked.
"Oh no, Wills is just a friend. I took him in last year," Alex explained.
"Oh..." Luna's gaze lowered, feeling strangely emotional all of a sudden.
"But he's still like family to me. Do you have a family, Luna...?" Alex asked.
Luna's eyes widened as they teared up more, lips trembled.
"Uh..." Alex gasped to see her tears...
Meanwhile...
The door to Galaxy's room slammed shut.
"So, long time no see. What have you been up to the last year?" Galaxy wandered.
"I've been getting around. I'm currently living with a florist, wouldn't you believe it? He has some interesting skills. Very intelligent," Willow went on.
"You're living among the humans?" Galaxy was surprised.
"Mamma taught me how to adapt a human form. Well, mostly," Willow returned.
"Does the she-wolf know you wandered off so far?" Galaxy asked.
"As much as she knows you've been gone for a year, sis. So, this is what you gave up the pack for?" Willow asked, eyes narrow with little emotion.
"I never gave up anything, my little Willow bean. Like I told Comet, I'm just having some fun. These little pups wanna save the world. Isn't that just adorable?" Galaxy beamed with a blush, holding her cheek.
"So I've heard. That little sakura petal's announcement is talk of the town. The kids wanna meet her and learn magic," Willow grumbled with a roll of his eyes.
"Sakura petal?" Galaxy repeated.
"Delicate and admired... blossoms into pink beauty, yet always shortlived. That's all she is. A delicate petal guaranteed to fall," Willow explained his nickname for Luna.
