-Supernova? 

His voice was venom that stung. She opened her eyes to his calling. 

-Black hole? 

She said in a whimper

-I know, my darling. The world caused us so much pain. 

He patted her hair and she felt goosebumps glaze her skin

-How about I gift you a special present? 

Her eyes sparkled

-You got me a present? 

He chuckled and it seemed darkness spilled out of his mouth

-Do I look like I leave my guests barehanded? 

Sara's mouth gaped as he enchanted her 

-Rem pulchram ama, praesertim cum luna lucens. Cor illi dabis, osculum veri amoris. quid moraris? Perge ad tuum lepidissimum principem.

Sara's eyes glowed pink as she recovered from the spell

-I need to find The Moon.. 

The Black Hole let out a chortle 

-Don't worry, you'll visit me soon enough.

The Moon split his army into eight parts. One for each planet and once he's beaten them all, he'd gather them and head for the sun. 

-Are you ready? 

The Moon asked again to make sure

-Yes, my Lord. 

echoed through the air

-Let the war began. 

Tropes marched to their assigned planet as they started shooting deadly arrows made of the Moon's magic. It would blind and kill a slow death once you were shot. He didn't need luck as he headed to Saturn.

-My Moon

Sara's imagined her speed increased as she raced to close the gap between her and her love

-Little star? 

The Moon clenched his jaw

-What are you doing here? It's dangerous! 

He tried shoving her to a cloud to stay hidden. She wouldn't budge... 

-Why are you so strong? 

Sara ignored him as she inched her face to him. The Moon's eyes grew at Sara's actions. She leaned in and kissed him hard. It felt the war had stopped as he felt sparks all over his body.

-I love you

Sara then spat the last piece of the Chance Celestial Sword as she died limp against him. The Moon's face paled as he felt his heart slow. From when did his heart beat? He felt himself drowning. And as he saw Sara's fallen star, he wished

-I wish you'd come back to life. 

He fainted.

-My Lord? 

He felt someone shake him

-Hyunjin? 

The Moon felt silver tears slip down his cheeks

-You passed out on the battle ground and now our tropes have been paused waiting for your command.

The Moon felt saddened as he remembered what he lost

-Cancel the war, and help those harmed. 

Hyunjin couldn't believe his ears

-Are you sure, my Lord? 

The Moon put his head on his pillow

-She would have wanted it to stop

He murmured

-Call me Jisung 

He closed his eyes trying to find peace in his newfound emotions

-My Lor- Jisung 

Jisung growled

-What do you want, now? 

Hyunjin hesitantly asked

-Are you okay? 

Jisung instead of answering questioned

-How long does it take one to come back to life? 

Hyunjin shook his head

-Usually stars don't come back to life, Jisung.. 

Jisung felt a tear making it's way down his cheek as he wiped it quickly

-You're dismissed for now

Hyunjin left for the door excitedly
