Luna was awaken by the soft knocks on her Royale Bedroom's door.  The horns are blowing to signal the their enemies are coming.

"Come in" She answered as she carefully went out of her bed to avoid making Rouka and Sona who are sleeping peacefully beside her. 

The door silently opens as Shiro entered the room.

"My Queen our scouts saw the Rundaryan and Solaris travelling towards our location." Shiro reported.

"How far are they? And how many of them?" Luna asked as Sona wakes up and as she get up from the bed sleepily.

"Based on the report the scouts saw them traveling 200 miles from here and I'm sure by noon they will be here. The Estimated number of people they saw is hundreds of them." Shiro answered.

"Have you informed the other leaders?" Luna asked again as Sona hugs her tightly from behind.

"They are already been informed about the situation and everyone are waiting for their arrival." Shiro answered.

"What's the noises about big sis?" Rouka asked sleepily as she hugs her gun.

"Lady Rouka the enemies are coming they will arrive here by noon" Shiro answered.

Rouka eyes widened in excitement as she jumped out of the bed and she pointed her shining gun in different directions.

" Is it playtime sis? Is it the time for shooting?" Rouka asked excitedly.

Sona slapped her forehead as she give Rouka a here we go again look. 

Luna smiles as she touches Rouka's head affectionately.

" Save the excitement some other time Rouka." She answered. " Shiro we'll be there after few minutes prepare the foods for the refugees and others."

Shiro bows her head " As you wish my Queen."

And she left the Room.

"So let's prepare for the arrival of our visitors shall we?" Luna said as she went to her Royale wardrobe.

Meanwhile......

" I haven't met that infamous Moonlight Maiden in person. But she became an heroine in short span of time." Snorted Queen Liandra as they travel.

"But My Queen that infamous Heroine is capable to knock down several of our soldiers. During the first time we encountered her she's able to slay several of us." One of soldiers answered.

"That's true she even defeated the Sun Maiden in a one on one duel." Queen Liandra said aloud and she give Sasha a mocking look.

Sasha glares at her.

" Do you want to stay here with me and have duel. I can easily eliminate an old lady like you!" Sasha hissed as she summons her Zenith blade.

"That's Enough our goal is to reach the Moonlight Temple and to see if the news is true. We can't do that if the two of you will cause more delays." King Gideon shouted.

The two woman fell silent as they continue their journey. After hours of traveling they can see the gleaming temple on the of mountain. Everyone was shock to see it standing as if it never been laid in ruins for two decades.

"It can't be! We had destroyed that 20 years ago." All the Soldiers exclaimed.

Everyone was shocked as they got closer towards the temples entrance.

" It's not like this when we left this place!" Sasha exclaimed as she glance around her.

Everyone was stunned when the Giant door of the temple opens and blind ray of light flashes upon them!
