Luna walked through the forest. It was a brightly moonlit night with stars, so many stars. She walked along, she was on her way to the canyon. Not for any particular reason, but just because she couldn't sleep, as usual. It was a cool summer evening. As she walked, she listened to the night forest sounds. The rustle in the undergrowth of small critters moving through it, doing some night hunting. The movement in the canopy of trees over her as owls and other night birds flew through it. The crickets singing their constant, soothing song, sometimes a thud in the distance of a dragon doing one thing or another. She was almost to the canyon now, she knew the place all too well as it was where she had rescued her two dragons, snatcher and snip, a pair of terrible terrors who had been abandoned by their mother only days after hatching. Her dragons weren't With her now, they had fallen asleep awhile ago, and when they finally went to sleep, she didn't argue with it. After a few more minutes, she arrived at the mouth of the tunnel like feature that led down into the canyon. She ducked down into it and made her way through it in complete silence and darknesss. As she emerged from the tunnel she surveyed the area and her eyes saw nothing out of the ordinary.

Curtis would walk around the area aimlessly. He didn't really decided where he was going, He just wanted to walk. When he arrived at the Canyon he would look around the area seeing nothing out of the ordinary. He would start looking down the side and would decide to walk along the cliff, He would see a tunnel and would go through it and would look around, Luna was here. Why was she out at this time? He had no idea. "Oh, Hey Luna." Curtis left most of his stuff at home. All he had on was his Clothing, and his boots. He didn't feel like he was going to need it tonight when he went for a walk. "What are you doing out at this time?"

Luna whirled around when she heard a voice behind her. It was hard to see in the darkness, but she recognized the voice. It was Curtis. She looked at him and smiled. he asked what she was doing out "I should ask you the same thing!" she said and then laughed. She looked at him while she replied. "well, I'm just out for a stroll. I couldn't sleep, as usual" she said to him. "so what's new?"

Curtis would laugh and would responed. "Couldn't Sleep either, I dont know why." Curtis would look around the dark area. The Moon light gave off enough light to see though. Curtis would look over a large rock and would walk over sitting by it. "nothing is new. How about yourself?" Curtis would await for Luna to reply. Curtis would take hold of the scale around his neck that Luna gave him. He would look at it for a few second's before looking up to reply to Luna's Awnsers. "Guessing the two little trouble makers are asleep?" Luna would say yes with a slight laugh.

Curtis went and sat over on a rock. She followed him and sat down beside him. "not much new, the normal stuff, as normal as my life gets." she smiled as he asked about snatcher and snip. "yes, there at home sleeping. When those two go to sleep you don't argue." there was silence for a few moments before she said "this is where I found them, you know. Do you want to see where?" she asked. He nodded and she got up and motioned for him to follow. She Began walking around the perimeter of the pond that was there. Until she found the spot she knew well. It was a very small spot where there had been a tiny nest with the starving baby dragons and the remains of there Shells around them. "right there" she said pointing. His eyes followed her finger to where it pointed.

Curtis would examine the area closely. "Hmm, Really?" Curtis would look around the area. Noticing every little detail in the moonlight. He looked back at Luna "Intersting" Curtis would walk back near the area he had been sitting at and would look around. Curtis liked the little area they were in. Seemed. Cozy if you will. Curtis looked over at Luna and raised an eyebrow. "Is there anything you want to talk about Luna?" Curtis would think for a second.

Luna looked over at him. How did he know? Had he read her cues? Had he just guessed? She continued to look at him with a questioning look on her face. "um, like what?" she asked cautiously. She reached down and pocked up a stone and skipped it across the water. She watched it slip under the water. Before turning back to him and raising her eyebrow as she waited for him to answer. "well?"

Curtis would think, "Hmm." Curtis would look around "Im not sure. Old friends? Family?" Curtis would look over at Luna waiting for her to awnser. Curtis take a seat again and would tap his knees with his finger's out of boredum. He would look around again, Somthing didn't feel right.

Luna tried not to become defensive. "I don't have many friends, and I don't have any siblings, and" Luna paused "well my parents I don't know about" she said quickly, scowling a little bit as she said it. She looked down at her fingers and messed with them while the silence settled over them. She looked away, she hated talking about her past. She wondered why he wanted to talk about this now. She looked back at him.

Curtis would raise his his eyebrow at Luna. "You don't know about your parents?" Curtis kinda wondered. "Heh. I know quite abit out my parents." Curtis would laugh abit. "My Father.. Well by now I belive he got choosen to be the Leader of Red Rock by the last leader." Curtis would kinda have a slight nervous look. "Anything I learned in the way of pratice or training with weapons I learned from my Mom. It seems abit odd I know. But I had a Strong dislike of my Father." Curtis wouldn't bother going on.

"well, it's not that a don't know about my parents, its just that I...Haven't really you know, kept up with them." she said rather awkwardly. She got up and took a few paces away from where they had been and stopped and looked back at him. She squinted at him. She sighed heavily. "well at least it sounds like you have er had a fairly normal family." she paced back and forth for awhile before she stopped right in front of Curtis and stared him in the eyes and crossed her arms.

Curtis would look at Luna and would get up with his eyebrow raised at Luna "What?" Curtis was kinda wondering why Luna was standing there with her arms crossed. He didn't know why but he waited for Luna to respond to his question, Or well more of his statement? He wasn't sure what to call it, It was just him saying What Heh.

Luna took a step back as Curtis stood uP and asked her what. She held a stare as he looked at her with bewilderment in his eyes. She closed her eyes and looked down before looking at him again and Saying in a firm tone "I'm trying to decide...if I can trust you or not." she said raising her eyebrow and momentarily squinting at him before looking him in his eyes again.

Curtis would look at Luna with somewhat widend eyes. "Trust me about what Luna?" Curtis would look at her head to toe. "Im sure you can trust me with whatever it is" Curtis was going over in his head. What was it she didn't know whether to trust him or not about. It could be just about anything but he would still go over it in his head while Luna awnsered him.

"it's just, this is something no other living person knows, I've never told ANYONE ever before." her eyes dropped to her feet as she contemplated wether or not to tell Curtis about her past and origins. She only hesitated because she know that if the wrong person found out, she would become an outcast or even be executed. She set her jaw and looked back up at Curtis. There was just something so sincere about his gaze, it made her feel like she could trust him, for some odd reason. She looked away and uncrossed her arms. She closed her eyes briefly before looking back at him and lowering her hand to the bOttom of her shirt and lifting it up just enough to see the flesh on her right hip, where she knew the branding from her birth was there. It was the symbols for l and h, saying she would eventually become leader of the Island of hysteria. You could see it clearly in the moonlight. She sighed and hesitated before saying "I'm Hystarian, and this means, that by heritage I will one day inherit the right to rule the island." she said slowly, dropping her eyes down to the mark on her hip and waited for Curtis to say something.
