Back to Luna Nova

Monday 4 September 2006, Luna Nova

"The tour of Europe has come to an end and as I was quite overwhelmed, even though the earnings were very high, it was all at once, Croix's resignation and everything else, were things that left all the magic of having kicked ass in Europe aside, but also the last few days were very calm, we spent them resting a bit, going to each other's houses in Ireland, before returning to Luna Nova on a long journey, saying goodbye a day earlier, which will be the beginning of another year."

The car journey with Mum Laura has been great so far, it's been a lot of fun, I'm going to miss spending the days there, it's helped to refresh me for everything, we arrived here yesterday and stayed in a hotel before heading off to the opening ceremony of Luna Nova, it'll be at noon, good that there's enough time to go over everything.
With our bags packed, we're being dropped off by our mothers in Glastonbury Square, both of them hugging us, after all this wonderful summer holiday time, I'm hugging Mum Laura tightly.

"Now we have to say goodbye, I wanted to stay with you all the time in the world" I say to my mum.

"You will soon girl, this is just a goodbye, I'll always be talking to you by message or travelling here, April and I still have a lot to help you both on this journey, don't forget that" My mother McLaren pats my head after the hug and touches my shoulder.

"Our mission to obtain Claiomh Solais isn't over yet, now that Luna Nova has restarted we will definitely return to obtain the power, I trust that this time Woodward will allow us to do so," said Croix.

"You don't have to focus so much on this thing, the reality is that you can change the world without needing a piece of wood with glass balls, yes it's a powerful magic sceptre, but you have to keep in mind that it's not it that's going to change the world, but you" Mum's right.

"Not to mention that Claiomh Solais isn't everything, the important part of this journey comes from you, he's the accessory that can reveal all the words, but don't go too far thinking that he's the solution to your problems, mature from that idea" said Aunt April.

"We love you both, stay well in Luna Nova, enjoy your time there, even though it's the place it is, but even so I know you'll enjoy spending the days together, finding a way to love each other too, so goodbye girls, you know where we are if you want to talk to me" said Mum Laura, who went to the car and said goodbye to us.

And now they were leaving, the time in Ireland was so good that it went by like a rocket, I didn't even imagine it would be so long, but it really was, which gives me a strange feeling after all this, finally it was time to go.
We waved to the car driving away and then looked back, as we walked towards the ley line where there were already lots of people going to Luna Nova, also saying goodbye to their families or just arriving and going straight, we took a deep breath and even avoided holding hands so as not to cause any strangeness or crooked looks at us, as we arrived to take the road to Luna Nova.
But I realised something: the faces of several students were directed at me with an impressed expression, it was quite different, other children outside Luna Nova were pointing at me, I was being recognised, but I just followed the path to the ley line, getting on the broom and arriving at Luna Nova, when I landed there I also saw the same expressions from the students, many of whom were studying with me.

"Look, we're here, Luna Nova at last" I say relieved.

"One more year to start, one more year to finish this too, I'm going to go to my room, leave my things and then I'll see you in your dormitory, I want to see the girls again" said my girlfriend and I nodded.

The impression people had of me was totally different from when I started here in Luna Nova, no one knew me before, only one person or another knew about my past rumours, now everyone knows that I'm Shiny Chariot, that I've just blown my career out of the water, I'm no longer the ordinary witch who just goes around.
We continued to walk through the corridors, with the same looks on our faces, and then we split up, my Croix going to her room, me going to mine, which is upstairs, and I walk until I reach the door, opening it with the key, and I see Becca and Daniella waiting for me, shouting and throwing confetti.
