Stay

Storm

Moana woke up the next day to see her parents in her hut with worried expressions. Moana sat up as her mother and father sat down to be at her level.

"What's wrong?" Moana said with concern. He father glanced at her mother and then back at Moana.

"There was a storm and we have a problem." Moanas father said with his voice filled with concern.

"What's the problem?" Moanas father looked back to her mother and then stood up. He stretched his hand out for Moana to grab. As she grabbed her fathers hand he led her out of her hut and to the the middle of the village.

The villagers were all gathered around in a circle whispering. The crowd parted as Moana and her father walked closer. Once Moana got close enough she could see what the people we whispering about. In the middle of the circle laid a gigantic hawk that was passed out from exhaustion, it was Maui.

Moanas heart skipped a beat as she saw Maui laying there.

"Well, what do you want to do?" Moanas father said. Moana turned her head around to face him.

"Your asking me?" Moana said with a curious look on her face.

"Its up to you." Moanas father said as he gestured his hand towards the giant hawk.

"Three of you take him to my hut, I will take care of him there." Moana said sternly. Three men grabbed the giant hawk and carried it to her hut. Moana closed the curtain behind them after they left.

Moana turned back around to see not the hawk but Maui slowing sitting up. Moana ran to him and threw her arms around his neck.

"Moana?" Maui said slowly waking up.

"Its me." Moana said as tears of joy ran down her cheeks. Maui wrapped his big tattooed arms around Moanas small waist and pulled her closer to him. Moana could tell that Maui had missed her as much as she had missed him for two years.
