As I'm sleeping after being overwhelmed by all these thoughts of Gala murdering me in the most viscous ways possible. I wake up and look at my alarm clock its three in the morning. I go to the bathroom to relieve myself. Once I wash my hands I hear a thud and a few bumps from down the hall. I slowly turn my head and rush to my room and grab a baseball bat Papa gave me when I was eight years old. Sensing nothing in the dark hallway. I slowly walk pass Azou's room and see a figure walk towards me. The eyes were glowing blue. I panic and start swinging the bat. The figure easily caught it. My eyes were close until the light was turned on. It was Gala who yanked the bat out of my hands. She looked at me with her piercing eyes and had a scowl on her face. "L..let go..Give me the bat Gala. I wasn't trying to hurt you bu.." She interrupted and folded her arms. "But what. Hmm? I was trying to apologize to you Mother but you just ran away from me like..Gala was a monster. Gala isn't no monster..Gala is your protector."
I can't bare to look her in her eyes right now. I push by her and run downstairs to the outside. Gala chases after me. I clench my head and feel like a heavy weight of dread and fear overcome me. This feeling manifest itself into none other than Fafir. He chuckles and walks towards me holding my chin up and meeting his face to mine. "How foolish you are. That child Gala. Will overpower you if you don't put your foot down. I watched how she had you in her grasp. I could help you if your willing hehe." He says stroking his silver beard. "Hey..you Fafir..leave her alone!! She's mine!! Not yours." Gala yelled before she covered her mouth in surprise. I look towards the ground and feel nothing but pain and heart ache. It hasn't even been a day but this new attitude Gala has taken may be too much for me. Fafir defends me by shielding me in a black ball. He waits silently. "Fafir...what did you have in mind?" I asked. The Evil God smiled. He whispered something into my ear than vanished. Gala looked at me and was angry. She charged toward me and started to hit me relentlessly. "How could you! How could you! How could you!!..YOU HURT ME FOR THE LAST TIME LUNA!!!" She yelled while grabbing me by my wrist. She threw me across the clouds of Nius and stomped on my stomach. "I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY FAFIR WAS HERE!!? I don't even know whats going on!! Gala please STOP!!" I say while coughing up blood. "All he said was to look within myself and become what..I..was meant to be." I said crying and feeling like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I saw Gala rushed toward me before my whole body shined a vibrant sapphire blue. All of Nius was alarmed Nea herself rushed outside. Gala was the only thing I could see. Her face was in wonder and awe. My vision unblurred and I notice every individual big,small,tall,short,ugly and cute were looking at me. I felt like I was in control. I descended to the clouds underneath and began to speak.
"Mother..Y. your..YOU ARE MY MOMMY..GALA IS SOO SORRY PLEASE FORGIVE GALA" She came crying and hugging me. I giggled and kissed her on her head. Nea bowed before me and smiled. "Aether..its been made a myth. But only Aether was able to control a Drenukk and bring her out of a inescapable realm..Luna..you are Aether..Skyra and Zuma must be very proud. Gala..protect Aether for eternity. THIS needs to be announced. Even the Beyonders will bow to this realization." She says excitedly. As Im escorted back home by Gala we have a long chat about her recent behaviour. "I just don't want that to ever happen again. I never asked to be a mother..But I chose to be..because you won my heart and you are a part of me..I forgive you..and I love you." I say while still in this unfamiliar state. Gala cries and hugs me tightly.
She kisses me on the cheek and changes her mature form to her child state. She snuggled in my lap and quickly returned to her matured state. "Uggh..heavy hehe. Something tells me your a teenager now..and well you'll disobey me and not listen..but hey..that's part of being a mom..I realize what my mom and grandmother had to deal with..Just promise me you'll be on the side of good..please." I say while I sit on the clouds relieved Gala is on my side again. Fafir rises to see whats all the commotion and stares at me with a devious smile.
"Finally..Aether..the myth is now a reality. Its all coming together. The Once-Blind is now at the top of tops..Well..that is if I have something to say about that.." He giggled evil intent. He creates out of nowhere a small little girl with white hair resembling Nea's. She came from her womb and was already full grown. "W..what the fuck?!! Nea!! YOU WERE PREGNANT!!?" I yell. Fafir looks at Nea. The two embrace and kiss each other. Meanwhile the child Fafir created goes back into Nea's body only to form a pregnant belly into the small goddess. "I..Im surprise our meeting resulted into something with positive intentions..I have..an daughter..and she will be the one to defeat Aether. Than again..Gala is a part of that..sooo..I should..do something about that." He says striking Gala with a bolt of red lightning. She twirls around and strikes it to the ground attacking Fafir. The two collide causing a shockwave blasting the temples and houses into smithereens. I giggle and feel nothing. Nothing except of the presence of being higher than the gods themselves. Each descend from space and are adorned in red and gold robes with blue sashes. One of these people stop Gala and Fafir from fighting another fixes the rubble. Nea seems calm and bows to the female robed lady who seems to be the leader.
"Lady Alonin..The Beyonders. What can I do for you on this weird and rather unique day? Sorry about Fafir..he's doin his job and just being himself." She says while holding Fafir's ear. "Is it really possible that a myth. A legend that was forgotten by even us exist? Aether is just as a foreign as the Drenukks. We..well Neo's most frequent Beyonder Eloheen believe there connected. You one day will have to battle a great evil. And the cost..may be severe. We're sorry..But Fafir is right about one thing..Your at the top of tops..Literally no one else is over you. All I can advise is..use your power for good. Keep Gala and train further in this form..It may one day become permanent when you need it the most.
" She said as she and the other Beyonders ascend back up to space and congratulate Momma. Papa hugs me and tells me to not wreak havoc. I smile and hug Gala some more. "This is pretty cool.Hmm I do wonder what can I do..Gala..maybe if you misbehave again..I'll discipline you hmm." I giggle. Gala smiles and without warning Gala strikes me I easily take every attack that she throws my way. I don't even feel tired nor groggy. She gets a little irritated and uses full power Im flying through a few buildings and notice were back at Julyanna's. Her mouth gaping open with amazement.
"Holy shit!! wow. Your Aether!! your the one my old master was looking for. C..can I have a few swings Luna?" She says meanwhile Gala gives her a mean look again. "Galaaa..Let her. It's ok. Mommy is gonna be fine.Hehe" I cheerfully say. Julyanna hits me in my gut yet I don't feel a thing. Gala decides to team up with her. I dodge all their attacks and only use a finger.
I feel like im lighter than air. In the midst of our fight I see Gala getting angrier and angrier she starts to actually try and hit so hard I feel it. Her eyes are a blood red and her markings glow a intense yellow. Each hit feels like a truck Julyanna is heavily injured and Gala isn't letting up. I have no choice but to grab her by her face and smash her into the dirt. "ENOUGH!! CALM YOURSELF!!" I shout.
She comes too and is horrified. The look on her face as she sees Julyanna is horrifying. She carefully picks her up as blood flows to her hands. I put my own hand on Julyanna's face. She grabs my hand and tries to say something but loses consciousness. I listen to her heart and I don't hear anything..Her eyes blank with expression. "S..shes..dead..Gala..You killed Julyanna...why?" I ask with tears coming out of my eyes. Gala looked at her own hands and then looked at me. She took Julyanna's body and ran far away. I try to catch her but my Aether power diminishes. Fafir once again appears he smiles and taunts me. "You can not control death..your father has the power he knew Gala would be the one to kill her.
She was worthless and a waste of time. However for you I have bigger plans. MINIONS!! CAPTURE LUNA. I have a universe to rule." He said with these giant transparent dragons wrapped around me. I am powerless to fight back, they open a red portal, men and women in black smoke like armour shield Fafir and are dispatched quickly by Momma and Gala in tow. I was surprised Gala return so quickly she looked different somehow..the tips of her hair were a bright yellow. She looked like a fully grown adult. Yellow blades emerged from her hands. She flew after me and the rest of his minions only to fight a bigger smoke guard. He pounded his chest like a monkey. I screamed both for my mom and Gala's name. Hopefully nothing bad will happen to me Im thrown in a cage and stripped into my underwear. Fafir instructs his minions to put me in chains. He sits on his throne and smiled at me. "Leave us. I have yet to decide what I'll do with Luna."
