It's been nearly a year since the lodge accident and I sent dad a birthday present and I sent him a picture of me and mom and me holding a sign that says we miss him and Alina and that we never failed to save mom and that we love him and right now mom and I were talking to aunt Melissa again and she has her ears and tail out and I think they match her and she wants to know how we've been doing "So, you work out?" aunt Melissa asked me "A-aunt Melissa!" I exclaimed "You know from my years of training to become a ninja caused this" I told her and she laughed "But I never stop practicing what I learned" I told her "That's great, looks like you found something that you really like" she told me "I love training to be a ninja, and when I defeated Ein, he helped me unlock my True Potential" I told her "How do you mean he "helped" you?" Aphmau asked "He reminded me of what I was afraid of that was holding me back, and I embraced what was holding me back from unlocking my true power" I told her "And what was that fear?" aunt Melissa asked "If you don't mind me asking" she added "Being ashamed of who I am and hurting those I deeply care about" I told her "Why would you be ashamed of who you are?" aunt Melissa asked and I used my telepathy on her 'Because I was an Ultima Werewolf, until your grandfather and my great grandfather changed the timeline and took being a werewolf from me which was my choice' I told her through telepathy and she's gotten used to talking through telepathy and she was unbelievably shocked at what I told her 'I'm not a werewolf anymore, great grandpa Robert, took the abilities of a werewolf from me, because I wanted that and he changed the timeline because in the previous timeline i'm in Aaron's state' I told her "S-so, what exactly were you two doing upstairs?" aunt Melissa asked us "N-Nothing" mom replied "I was just practicing my spell casting" I told her "Spell casting?" she asked "In Hunter, Alina and I's timeline, we use to attend a wizard school called Ilvermorny" I told her and she told mom she had wolf ears and a tail on and she asked if she was telling her she wasn't doing anything and I turned to mom with an annoyed look on my face "Seriously mom?" I asked "In my timeline, grandpa Derek told me this" I told her and she started blushing very red "I WASN'T, ITS JUST AN OLD COSTUME THAT I UH" mom tried explaining "You just happen to have a werewolf costume lying around?" aunt Melissa asked "Trust me, I thought the exact same thing" I whispered to her "Why?" aunt Melissa asked her and mom started panicking a little "I can't run away from it anymore can I?" mom asked and both aunt Melissa and I laughed "No you cannot" she told her and she explained why she needs to know "Mom, don't make me use my Elemental Power of the Mind on you and show aunt Melissa your memories" I told her "I...I wanted to feel like I was closer to Aaron in some way" she told us "Well, not the answer I was expecting but" aunt Melissa started "AUNT MELISSA!" I exclaimed and she started laughing "Sorry, sorry just teasing" she told us "Seriously, you don't have to have ears and a tail to feel closer to Aaron" she told her "Yeah mom, just be yourself, it's so much easier than pretending to be someone or something your not" I told her and she told us she wants to know what dad's going through and aunt Melissa told us a sad answer and honestly grandpa Derek might be the only one with a proper answer but now she suggested to change the subject because mom's getting upset and I can see tears swelling up in her eyes and now aunt Melissa is now talking in a care free teenage girl voice and she even told herself that it's a good idea "What?" I asked with complete confusion and now she wants to talk about the reason she's here and she told us about Starlight Wonderland and she came here because grandpa Derek wanted to make sure we were getting ready to meet dad and Alina there "Getting ready?" mom asked "I didn't even know we were supposed to in the first place" I told her and she reminded that there's still three months left and she told us how fast three months is and she actually gave us tickets to Starlight "I've actually never been to Starlight before" I told them "You've never been to Starlight?" aunt Melissa asked "No" I replied "Well, where did you go for vacation?" mom asked "Nowhere actually" I told her "In our timeline grandpa Derek and grandma Rachel were so worried and scared from when you and dad disappeared that they kept us home every day and made sure we would be home safely" I told them "And I never really got a chance to socialize, the only people who are my best friends are two people who attend Ilvermorny and are the same age as me until Hunter, Alina and I were pulled out of school and got a M.A.C.U.S.A Auror to continue our training in magic" I told them "M.A.C.U.S.A?" aunt Melissa asked "Magical Congrees of the United States of America" I told her "The American Ministry of Magic" I told them "There's a Ministry of Magic?" mom asked "In every country, yes" I told them "So you've never been on vacation before?" aunt Melissa asked "No, this'll be my very first one" I replied "Well, we'll get to see your reaction to your very first vacation" aunt Melissa told me and she told us she'll be back in three months to pick us up and take us to the airport and she told us that grandpa Derek wants me, mom, dad and Alina to be happy and to remember that this trip is for me, mom, dad and Alina only and she said that grandpa planned everything out and she, grandma Rachel and grandpa Derek know pretty much everything about me and Alina now and we thanked her "I can finally see my sister again" I said excited because I miss Alina so much and I actually now have 2 jobs as a worker at a tea shop and a pizza restaurant and i'm pretty much a delivery guy and when aunt Melissa left I just realized i'm gonna be late for work at the pizza restaurant and I told mom about it and I left and I actually created my own motorcycle and I took off to work.
