Luna's dad was in the military a while ago with his partner Shane. After his death, Luna and her mom haven't seen Shane for a long time. Luna is all grown up now, 19, and happy as ever. That is until someone tried to steal a file her father hid long...
I woke up and realized I was back in my bed. I sat up and stretched when I smelled something delicious.
'Breakfast!'
Before I got out of bed, I grabbed my cell to call my mom. I waited for her voice as I listened to the rings. After about 5 of them, she finally answered.
"Hello?"
"Hey mom."
After about 20 minutes on the phone, we hung up and I was once again trying too contain my tears. It's not fair that we have to go through this.
I got out of bed and headed to the bathroom. I undressed and jumped in the shower, trying to forget about my problems. After I was done, I grabbed my towel and wrapped it around me.
I went to the sink and looked at my reflection. My eyes were puffy from crying last night. It was ok though, what did I expect?
I went back in the room and got dressed. The smell of the food was making me rush to get ready. I grabbed my phone with the earphones and headed to the kitchen.

"Good morning, Shane."
He was placing our plates on the table and looked up at the sound of my voice, "Good morning princess, how did you sleep?"
"Pretty well, thank you. Sorry about last night, it's was just that.... there's a lot going on and it's happening so fast. It was too much for me to cope with."
He stopped what he was doing and walked over to me. He leaned back against the table, his arms crossed over his chest.
"You don't have to apologize because of something like this, it's not you're fault. When it's safe, we'll go back munchkin, ok?"
I looked up at him and giggled,"Munchkin?"
"Yea, since you love munchkins so much. I'm surprised you didn't turn into one."
I rolled my eyes and walked passed him, "Whatever," I mumbled, causing him to chuckle.
I sat down and he placed a plate down in front of me. It was pancakes, eggs, and bacon.
"Mmmmm, this looks so delish! Who knew you could cook so well!?"
"Yea my...my ex taught me how."
"Oh...she did?"
"I mean being with the kids helped out a bit, but...yea she helped me improve my cooking."
"Uh huh."
He sat across from me, his plate in front of him as he started to pour our orange juice. There was a bit quiet for a few seconds, then he broke the silence.
"Yea but enough about that. I been meaning to ask you, what you going to school for?"
"Oh, well I'm taking up music and arts."
"That's amazing."
"Yea....I have a question that's been bothering me since we left."
He looked up from his food and raised an eyebrow,"Yea?"
"So... My mom said you were going to live with us....but we're here...why?"
"Because we need to catch whoever that's after the file in action, but I'm not letting you guys be there alone. Besides, I needed to get my gear from here."
"So we're going back?!"
"When we catch whoever tries to break in, yes. I don't know how long it'll take, but you'll be safe in the mean time."
After this news, I was beaming for the rest of breakfast. I was so happy to know we were going back home.
We finished our breakfast and cleaned up our mess before he took me to a room.
"Why are we in here?"
We walked toward a wall with a fire place. He reached out and he pressed a hidden button camouflage within the fire place's rock.
"To get some toys."
As if on cue, the wall started to shake a little and then it rose upward, revealing another wall. There was a a pair of doors on the new wall that looked as though they could slide apart.
Shane stepped closer to doors and placed his hand on a square that was upon them. It scanned his hand from the top of his fingers to the bottom of his hand.
"Welcome Agent Wolfe."
The voice startled me a bit, but it wasn't enough to make the feeling of excitement disappear. This was like an awesome action pact movie and it felt surreal!
"Wow! That was awesome!"
He looked at me, smile, then walked in the room.
There were weapons all over the walls and on the tables that was in the room. From pistols to grenades, anything you could think of was in front of me.

"Don't touch anything."
"Awwwww, come on! That's not fair!"
"Luna," he said in a warning tone.
"Okay! Fine! You're no fun!"
He shook his head and packed some weapons and other spy-gear. He was almost done when he looked at me, looking as if contemplating on a decision.
"What?"
"Nothing, just trying to decide if I should...."
He stopped talking mid-sentence and dug in his bag. He got out what he wanted to retrieved and turned to me. He had a pistol in his hand and looked at me.
"This is yours."
"Wait...you're giving me a gun!?"
"Just for precaution. If anytime during this mission we're separated, you'll need to defend yourself. Do you know how to shoot a gun?"
"I never touched a gun before, let alone shot one!"
"Then I guess I'll have to train you."
"Wait, really?"
"Yes," he said heading back to exit the room.
He walked out of the room and into the previous one, me on his heels. He closed the doors and the wall with the fake fireplace slid back down.
"When do we start training?"
He lift up the pistol and tossed it to me, "Training starts now."
