The Eclipse Mark

Chapter 7

I took deep breaths and looked over at the other people in my tent.

"Luna, Luna? You were screaming, like bloodcurdling screams." Thanatos leaned over me, while Chelsy stood beside him. He seemed to have changed, probably got some clothes or something. I guessed he was staying.

"It wasn't pretty. Also, you need to stop changing your hair, it's making me insane." Chelsy's hair was in a messy bun, and she was wearing a sleeveless shirt. She didn't, however, look happy.

"My... my what?" I looked at my hair. It was white. Just... white. It sent chills up my spine

"Well, if that's over, I'm going back to sleep." Chelsy left, keeping my tent flap open. I didn't see her tent outside, which slightly worried me.

"She's sleeping in the pond, can you believe that?"

"She is a water mage, I guess it makes sense. She probably doesn't have to deal with bad posture." I cracked my neck.

"Yeah, well try to get some better sleep. We have leftovers if you're hungry." He leaves as well, but I didn't get better sleep. In fact, I got no sleep. I just stared at the eclipse
~~~
"Woah, what died?"

"Uhmmmmnniiihhhhum." I slept all the time. I loved sleep. I'm was a wreck without sleep.

"Guess we should start the funeral now." I rolled over to look at Chelsy. Again, she looked better than ever, but doubly so. Was her hair longer? Hm, she looked absolutely-

"Radiant."

"Whot?" Chelsy looked at Thanatos.

"Uh, you look good. Guess water sleeping isn't so crazy."

"Don't get used to it. I can only do it with water that's not my own." I guessed Thanatos and I were both staring.

"Oh, too bad." He quickly turned away

"Watcha staring for?" Chelsy looked at me

"You look good." Chelsy lightly punched my arm.

"Both of you are terribly non-descriptive. Keep that up and I'm drowning you." She rolled her eyes. "I mean, how you gonna feel when it's the full moon?" She gestured at Thanatos.

"He'll look good too. I'll just look like crap over here."

"Close your mouth before you start drooling."

"I am not drooling."

"Keep telling yourself that."

"Look what I have planned!"

"Planned?"

"I haven't been outside the kingdom in so long! It was only a stupid diplomatic mission anyways."

"Well, what do you have planned?"

"First, the Capitol!"

"Alright, I'm down." Thanatos grabs both of our hands.

"Hey! Get off you little-" Suddenly, we were in a marketplace.

"Ta dah, the Capitol!"

"You left all our stuff back in the forest." Chelsy rolls her eyes.

"You really wanna lug all the stuff around?"

"Better than leaving it in a forest where anyone could take it."

"Yeesh, fine. We can go back."
~~~
"Is that a fight?" We all heard some loud noises coming from the middle of a crowd.

"Probably. Let's check it out."

"What? Shouldn't we stop it?"

"Eh, it'll be entertainment." We squeeze our way through all the people. I saw a water mage beating up a wind one.
