The Legend Of Moon

3. Identity of Knight

Thomas' POV

"You should get a lot of rest now, young master. I'm sure it took a lot of your energy." Moon yawned lightly, turning on the volume of his headphone which was connected to his phone. "I'm fine, Emerald Ice. No need to worry, just a bit sore, that's all." The ice dragon shook his head, walking towards the kitchen as we heard him searching something inside the cabinets. "A painkiller won't hurt, young master", he spoke while the noise kept on going. Moon growled softly, probebly due the pain and the sounds produced by the searching dragon. "It's fine", he said just above a whisper. "Just don't make any more noise than necessary." "Does it hurt your head?" Moon nodded, being more talkative towards the mythical creature than towards us and more open as well. "It feels as if it's gonna explode anytime soon." The dragon laughed softly. "You really know how to use your words, young master", he said appearing again with a bottle of water and a pill (painkiller?) in his hands. "Take this, young master", he gave the stuff to Moon who gladly accepted it. "This should calm your system. I guess you call it 'nurofen'?" My friend nodded, taking in the pill and handed it back to Emerald Ice, who went to take it back to the kitchen. "You might want to use this, master", a softer and much higher voice said, coming from a rabbit who smilled, jumping towards the boy he called master. Moon only chuckled with a soft 'thank you' before his eyes turned white as he said loudly : "Bunny Hop, Sleeping Dream formation!" Soon the once rabbit turned into a soft blanket, on top of Moon, who's eyes turned back to normal. A soft groan escaped his lips just as Emerald Ice appeared back into the living room, watching his master on the couch. "You shouldn't use your magic, young master! You're too weak, it'll only hurt you more!" In a worried tone he hurried to the side of Moon to check if he had any fever. "I do not care", he only answered. "I am not that weak that I can't take care of myself on my own." He tried to sit up straight, only to fall back into his pillow. "I believe you are", the dragon agreed. "But you're only making it harder for yourself to heal." He sighed and shrugged before turning towards us (finally). "You don't have to stand there all day", he said. "You skipped school after all 'cause of me, have a seat."

"I guess I own you an explination, right?" He looked us right in the eye as we sat on some chairs right in front of him, making us nod. "Well", he started. "As you might already have guessed, I ain't normal. My name is Moon Knight, first and only child of Man in the Moon and the Greek godess of the dangers of the ocean and sea monsters, Ceto. I am a nature wizard, a wizard who's natural powers come from the nature and the only one who knew about my situation was Kenny." By hearing his name, I almost automatically turned my head in his direction, making him shrug. "I didn't know before either", he said. "I only figured out on the way after Moon showed it himself. Although I gotta say, it was pretty awesome, right Urio?" The badboy looked towards a little skeleton who seemed to be called Urio, who grinned and gave him a little high five. Moon giggled softly, showing us his white teeth. "I hope you guys can keep a secret?" I nodded, still in a soft of shock but Lili stood up directly. "I promise this will stay between us, Moon Knight, child of the moon himself." She winked, a soft blush appearing on her cheeks which got noticed by both Kenny and I, who laughed softly so she wouldn't see. "You can always come to us if you need anything, after all, we are your friends." Moon nodded softly with his head, closing his eyes in pain for a second. "I owe you", he whispered but I shook my head. "You don't, we still owe you for saving us from Kenny, who seems to be your friend. We still gotta pick up the gift your father left you." Now Moon shook his head. "There is no need to do that anymore, Thomas. Dragonero left me a while as I was blacked out to get it, he left in front of the door." A little pegasus ran directly to the door after hearing this coming from her master and seeing he was about to stand up to get it, making her rush and run like the wind. Although, she wasn't this small, before anyone of us realised she already returned, a little gift on her back between her two little wings. It made Moon chuckle again softly, taking it from her back before she happily left her master, proud she was able to help him out. "Thank you, Masquerda", he yelled after her, only to receive a loud noise escaping her mouth. "Let's see what's inside of it, shall we?", Moon asked to no one really while slowely opening the gift he received from his very rare and special father. The brown paper slowely fell to the ground as he ripped it apart with his fingers, touching his gift in all ways possible to guess what would be inside. "What is it?", Kenny's voice echoed, followed by a curious look of Lili and I. Our friend didn't reply, only stared at the small box in his lap while a tear ran down his cheek. "What's the matter?", Lili asked stepping towards him, worried about her crush but he waived her away, taking out something I couldn't see really well at first. "It's a travelling amulet...", he barely was able to say out loud, making all of us look up. "Father wants to meet up with me in his real form... He wants me to return to the Wizard World."
