//------------------------------// // Chapter 6- As the Times Passed // Story: My Little Luna // by Maximille De Lis //------------------------------// Through the years that passed, she has earned her mark, I don’t know how, but on her 8th birthday, she had it on her just like that, so we celebrated twice that day. Many days later she learned how to use her magic, in which she could change the phases of the moon. She was ecstatic when she used it. I couldn’t believe my eyes at what she did. Many years passed and she along with it had matured with it. She was 14 when she started getting curious about how she came here. I had to lie to her, for it would hurt her feelings if I told the truth. I told her I found her on a farm, outshining the other animals even when she was just a filly. She accepted the lie, even though it hurt me to tell her. She must never know that she was a rock at first, or the fact she was a TV cartoon. This was taboo to speak of around her. After that, she started acting a little sad. I asked her why she was sad. “I…. I have no one else to talk to” This made me think, should I get her a computer? If she did, I would risk her being discovered; Or even worse, her discovering something else. I thought of an old saying, don’t let pain get to you before it even happens, or you will hurt others before you have it happen to you. So as usual, thinking recklessly, I got her a computer. I told her to only stay on the sites I gave her, for her own safety. She agreed only to get on the computer. As time passed, she started cheering up more, feeling she could talk to someone else. When she was happy, I was happy. When she was sad, I would comfort her. When I was frustrated, she would be there to lighten my spirits up. We were there for each other.
