LUNA'S POV.

The flight was very uneventful for Luna who slept through it all, contrasting to the lively Sandra who took this opportunity to update her travel blogs and post some pictures on her social media accounts.

They'd taken a rest in a hotel for the night after the flight, the next morning, boarding the already awaiting cruise boat to the island.

It was another boring moment for Luna, slightly worse than the first since she became sea sick half way through the journey.

This week doesn't seem like a pretty good week to her.

There was no dolphins jumping around, no sign of a whale. Hell, she wasn't even sure if she caught sight of a single fish.

The moon was already up when they got to their destination. Luna having no strength left to admire the beautiful setting before her as she was lead to her room.

One thing she knew was that she was hungry, and very tired.

Hungry and tired are two words she never mess with.

Dinner was served some minutes later and she found her self in the midst of many other people her age.

The other winners she guessed.

She focused on her food, leaving Sandra who still managed to keep up the smile on her face all this while, to deal with the introductions.

Without sparing any one a glance she wiped her plate clean, Immediately heading back to her room.

She managed to send her old lady a goodnight text before dropping on the bed.

Her eyes closing shut the second her head hit the pillow.

★★★★★★★

"Wakey, Wakey." A loud voice sounded in the room, accompanied by the feeling of uncomfortable light ray bouncing on her face.

"Leave me alone Sandy." Luna groaned, throwing the sheets over her head.

She needed more sleep if they wanted her to function like a normal human. 

"Am not holding you." Sandra swiftly snatched her blanket, tossing it to the other side of the room. "I just want your ass up."

"Isn't it all the same?" A groan escaped Luna's lips as she forced herself to sit upright.  Eyes droopy and head swaying.

"It's afternoon already cockwit." Sandra scowls at her undead looking friend.

What will she do without her? Probably crawl up in a dark corner and die.

"The others are already on the beach, so up you go." She grabbed both of Luna's hand, pulling her off the bed before throwing her into the bathroom. "Five minutes. Or am coming in to do the job myself."

"Why are you so rude to me? Mom said to take care of each other remember?" Luna cried through sleepy eyes.

"And that's what am doing." Sandy rolled her eyes at the futile attempt. No way she was letting her go back to bed. "Four minutes remaining."

Luna let out an heavy sigh, deciding to go with the flow.

One must know it's very impossible to win against Sandy. Arguing with her should be considered as a waste of time.

Why isn't it already stated in the constitution? She doesn't knows.

Washing the sleep out of her face. She brushes her teeth then takes a wild bath. 

Walking out of the bathroom to meet an awaiting Sandra who was going through her things.

It was just the same way she left it yesterday. 

Unattended to.

"Here. Put this on." 

She sigh once more, reluctantly picking up the clothes Sandra tossed on the bed.

After putting on the clothes, Sandra sit her down, lighting up her face with some lip gloss and eyeliner.

Atleast she looks more alive now. Sandy thought to herself.

Luna wasn't really a big fan of makeup, so it was better to just touch it up here and there or she'd be taking the risk of having her handwork cruelly wiped off some seconds later.

"All done. Let's go." Luna shots up from the chair, stretching out her arms.

"What about breakfast?"

"I will see if I can get you something." Sandy nodded. "The boys were preparing some barbeque when I left."

Barbeque for breakfast? Luna cringed at the thought.

As if Sandra had heard her thoughts, she shoot her a scowl. "It's afternoon already."

"Breakfast still remains breakfast." Luna mutters under her breath.

Following Sandra's lead, they took the exit at the back of the resort, taking a part that leads to a open ground. A beach.

People littered around.

Her jaw fell open at the sight of the high mountains and lush green vegetation.

How hungry was she to not have noticed this yesterday?

It must definitely be because they arrived at night.

"Come on. Let me introduce you to the others." Sandra grabs on her hand running towards the beach.

She wasn't sure if Luna would remember any face. One thing she knows about that bestfriend of her' is everything turns non-existent the moment she grows very hungry. Worst when she needs a nap.

"Hey Jeff...Nash..." She waves at a group of guys by a barbeque stand. Dragging a tired looking Luna along with her.

Two more guys appeared the moment they reached the stand.

"Guys." She called, even if their eyes were already on her. Mostly on Luna. "This is my sister from yesterday. Just forget about the fact you saw her yesterday."

"Hi." The black boy spoke first, white teeth glistening in the sun. Who said black boys weren't handsome? "Am Durban Jefferson. You can call me Jeff."

"Hey."  Luna replied with a smile.

"Ryan Sylvester, Russo Nash." The black haired chinese guy points at a blue eyed blond, then a light brunette with light green eyes. "I am Zhang Wei."

"Hey..." The named boys sent a small wave.

"Nice to meet you all." 

"Well is the barbeque ready? My sister here is pretty hungry." Sandra said to Ryan. She looked pretty close to the boys already.

"You missed breakfast?" Zhang Wei turned to Luna. It would take more than a blind ear to miss that country accent of his.

"I slept through." Luna replied, her lips forming into a sheepish smile.

"It's almost ready." Nash assured. "You girls can go wait on the beach. We will be sure to let you know when it is ready."

"Well then I will be counting on you for breakfast." Luna nodded hungrily. Just the aroma of the barbeque proved enough to mess with her brain.

"It's Afternoon already young miss." Nash points out.

"Breakfast still remains breakfast." She pointed out once more, heading down the beach.

She hadn't gotten far when she sighted a figure sitting alone on the sand. Scribbling something on the book in his hands, eyes staring deep into the crashing waves.

She looked back at the boys, then the group of girls chatting while lying under the sun. Sandy in their midst.

Deciding there isn't much of a choice, she drags her foot over, slumping next to the boy.

"Hey."

Salvador's head whipped to the side at the sudden sound. It's the girl from yesterday.

Salvador wasn't really good at talking to people, so when he mustered up his courage to say hello to the dirty blond girl sitting next to him during dinner, only to be ignored he felt a bit hurt.

Maybe more than a bit.

"Have we met before." Luna found the gaze familiar. Or maybe it was because his eyes found her familiar.

"Huh...at dinner." Salvador managed to piece together.

"Dinner?" 

"I said hi to you but you didn't reply." Salvador didn't know why he said that. It was not like he cared.

"Oh...." Luna form drenched with guiltiness. "An sorry. I wasn't in my right mind yesterday."

"It's alright." Salvador smile, his smile slipping when he realized he hadn't even introduced himself. "Garcia Salvador–My name."

Mexican. Luna confirmed in her head.

"Hubert Luna, and it's nice to meet you." Luna said sincerely. Something about Salvador made her feel comfortable. "So what were you doing?"

Her eyes wandered to the book Salvador was holding, and he gave her a nervous smile.

"It's nothing."

"I saw you scribbling on the book earlier. Is it a diary or something?" Luna asked suddenly getting curious.

She really didn't want to become the curious cat. But the story did ended with it's resurrection, so she doesn't mind.

"No–its not a diary." Salvador blurted out immediately.

"A drawing note?" Luna took another guess.

"Not that too." Salvador shook his head.

"Then can I see?" 

Salvador wanted to refused but ending up giving in at the end. "okay."

    "wow." A gasp escaped Luna's lips. Her eyes flipping through the page with each turn. The words caught in her mouth. "They are so....""Amazing right?" Salvador couldn't help but add."How did you? How did you make all these?" Her fingers runs on the surface of the note. Curving along the stream pattern of the map that spread across all corners of the white sheet.There was more than a thousand words to describe it but she could only settle for one.Damn."I travel a lot. Been a writer means the need of many inspirations."

She wanted to see it badly....maybe she would see it if she goes into the water. That's it... She had to go into the water to see it. She automatically stepped back, a loud siren ringing in her ear. Sandra stood a few feet from her, smoke puffing out of the gun in her hand. Adverting her eyes from the thing in the water she just shot at. To say she was mad was an understatement. All she wanted to do right now was to hit the dirty blond girl very hard with the back of the gun. Why won't she always listen to her? Everytime....every single time she would prefer courting death than to listen to her. Luna moved a few feet back, shaking her hea

    One year later."Daphne hurry up, we have really got no time." Luna shouted from downstairs. Eyes glaring at the ceiling, fixing on the point where the little girl's bed was positioned upstairs."You don't have to be all yelling." Her mom scolded. Marching upstairs."Come on sweety, you don't want to miss the flight to your favourite uncle Salvador's publishing celebration, do you?"Pushing off the blanket, Daphne roses a brow. "You mean dad?"Luna walked into the room just to hear the comment. Dragging her adopted daughter out of bed and into the bathroom. "It's uncle to you until he puts a ring on the finger.""Just ask him to." Daphne rolled her eyes, letting her mother take of her clothes. "Or you buy one yourself.""It doesn't works like that Daphne." Luna sighed. Tossing the little girl into the tube and turning the tap on. "Then make it work." Daphne sulked. "I want a dad and a little sister.""If you think it's that easy to get, why don't you just go buy some?" Luna smacked h

    On the third day the whole group was gathered in Daphne's room who was unsurprisingly the last to wake up."Luna." Daphne's big eyes blinked twice before finally settling on the person she wanted to see.With a broad smile, Luna gathered the little girl in her arms, who in turned, sighed comfortably."Yes. Luna." Ten scowled. "She's the only one you can see."With an innocent face, Daphne added. "I see aunt sandra, aunt Emma, aunt Ally, uncle Wei, Uncle Jeff, and uncle dor."Noticing that he had been left out, Ten grew furious. "You naughty kid.""What did I do?" Daohn pouted.With a sigh, Salvador once again took the job of a pacemaker for the seventh time. "Daphne stop teasing your uncle, and Ten. Grow up.""I didn't so anything." The two culprit said in unison then huffed.Luna shook her head, resisting the urge to laugh.How come she never knew Daphne had a mischievous smile."So what will you all do after?" Allyssa spoke up for the first time. "you know.....after now."The room f

    "So, we are back here." Emma looked around."Huh....is it just me, but is there a difference?" Wei asked skeptically."Yup. The heads on the tree are gone, and it doesn't gives off that scary vibes anymore." Jeff replied."Good point." Sandra nodded."Also, look." Allyssa looked over her head and the others did the same.The blood red river above their head was now a crystal blue flowing water."Huh———""It's back to how it was before." Emma mumbled softly. "blue and sparkling.""It's not just that. Look." Salvador drew their attention back to the tree."Wow.....The tree which was previously dead and dried up was slowly shedding it's barks. Revealing a fresh green patch.Slowly, tiny green leaves with an hint of silver began to grow on the stems, slowly stretching into larger leaves until the smallest was about the size of the palm of a new born baby."The good looking tree came back and the ugly one is gone." Daphne yawned, rubbing in her eyes."Umm...it sure did." Luna nodded dazed

    Sandra's Nightmare.When Sandra woke up she was under a thick blanket. The feeling was familiar, and without a second thought, she knew why?Without hesitation. She hurriedly threw the cover off her, throwing her legs off the bed so she is sitting in the edge."Sure enough. It's my room. Again." She noted.Aggrievedily, she walked to her closet. Throwing the door open, she grabbed on a furry coat, and a fair of black, fur, soaks then put them on.'This will do.'Slowly looking around her room, she snorted. 'where did I keep the fucking umbrella?'Completely undisturbed, she threw her room door open just in time to hear an harsh whisper."The fuck are you saying Davis?" Vanessa said angrily. "What the fuck do you think you are saying? That's our daughter in there. Our daughter.""Am sure you heard me loud and clear Essa, that girl is not my daughter." Davis yelled back. "You can take her to who ever did that to her, or get the fuck out of my house. Both of you.""She was raped Davis. S

    Thinking deeply, Salvador stated. "When it was surrounded with water, it was watered with water. So when it is surrounded with blood, it should equally be watered by blood."You think—" Ten guessed."No." Salvador shot. "You are probably thinking of using the blood from the river.""If not that, then what?"Allyssa asked."Wait——" Emma frowned. You are not thinking.""Yes." Salvador snapped his fingers in recognition. "That's exactly what I am thinking.""That's insane." Emma complimented."Do you think we think they have any other choice." Salvador profess. "If you do, I am all ears."With a sigh, Emma turned away. Staring into space."......." The others who could barely understand what they were talking about.Having had enough already, Sandra vocalize. "Okay. Can you two explain what's it we are doing?""In human language please." Wei chirped in."The thing is, we will have to water the tree with blood." Salvador delivered."That's easy." Ten said lightly. "we can just go get some

    Technically not possible. But that's what it is." Salvador explained. "It's like there is thin barricade stopping the water after about twenty feet deep and then there is land.""So...you mean we can breath down there?" Allyssa asked."Hmmm..." Salvador hummed in reply. Monitoring the oblivious Luna from the corner of his eyes."And the tree? How does it looks like?" Emma asked. From all she has seen. She didn't dare to think of how the said tree would look."That——" Salvador paused. Then sighed. "You will have to take a look yourself.""Don't you think one of us should wait up here and keep watch?" Wei said grimly. Definitely not interested in swimming in a river of blood."Keep watch of what?" Ten scowled. Grabbing on his arm. "We are all going in. Together."Before Wei could draw a breath he was already tossed into the river by an evil looking Ten.Arms flaring around in the surface like he was about to drown. "Fuck——fuck....for real men." He glared hatefully at the culprit of his

    "Okay enough of all this." Ten resumed a serious expression. One that is rarely show under the skies. "We are lost and out of food. If we don't do something we will either die from thirst and starvation or end up eating each other as meals.""The second option sounds like a better idea." Allyssa pouted out, successfully earning the heated gaze of her comrades."But that those sounds like a good idea." Emma noted."No more humor people. We need solution." Luna rolled her eyes.Looking around Salvador srunched his eyebrows irritatedly. "Every tree looks the same. It's like we are going no where.""We are. Going no where." Wei pitched."If only we know someone who isn't as unreliable as Emma and knows the way." Ten sighed. Fatigue slowly creeping down his spine."We do." Salvador snapped two fingers. Eyes wide open."You aren't planning on asking the kid are you?" Sandra who had caught his line if thought popped a brow."She might know something." With that said. All eyes turned to the s
