They were cleaning the house as the house was already like an old abandon house. We were cleaning the house and we're totally exhausted. Suddenly, Cerberus got an idea. He whispered to Sophitia and Sophitia nod.
"Guys! Stop working- stop cleaning" Sophitia announced as everyone look at her frown. Sophitia and Cerberus look at each other with smiling faces and they use their power to clean and repair what's broken. Eliza scoffed with a smile on her face. Eliza was having fun with the others and suddenly, Christopher pop up in her mind. She look around and saw Christopher on call. He ended the call and whisper to Joseph that he will go somewhere. He walked away from there and got in the car, drove off. Eliza frowned. She walked to Joseph.
"Hey, where is he going? Christopher I mean" Eliza asked.
"Oh, He said he had to go somewhere but he didn't state where he was going" Joseph replied. Eliza nod and pat his back and let him back to do his work. Eliza thought in his head that her plans or missions had been done. She smiled but at the same time, she need to leave and come back to her own house. After cleaning all the stuff, the house totally looks new and it's super clean. They all just chilling on the couch, talking some random stuff and laughing at each other. Eliza thought she needs to tell them that she needs to go now.
"Hey, guys" a pause. Everyone eyes were on Eliza and Eliza look at them all and smiled sadly.
"I need to tell you now. I'm going back to my home" Eliza said. Everyone widened their eyes.
"What??? Noooo... We stay here together!!"
"True! Christopher let us all live in this house with him"
"Eliza, please don't go.."
"Eliza, What do you mean by that????" They all whined like a kid. Eliza chuckled. Eliza started to tell them her stories on how she's arrived here, how she know Christopher, how she got to meet 4 of them in the lab, what happened when she sleeps too long, and everything. It was really a long journey she got. She had no rest everywhere she goes. Everyone wants to hunt her. Her mother always told her;
"Not everyone outside is the same as you have a big and kind heart. Not everyone wants to love you. Not everyone wants to help you. Not everyone... No one. Only you can help yourself. Only you can love yourself. Only you can... You do you..."
Eliza's mother always reminds her to be careful and stay safe whenever she's outside. She never knows what everyone will think of her or anyone else. They all went to group hugs and all of them cried in the hugs.
"Now whatever you do, always remember what I teach you, okay?" Eliza said and they nod multiple times. They all wiped their tears as Eliza ran back to her home. As soon as she enter her hometown territory, she turn into a wolf and ran as fast as she can. Everyone started to whisper and murmured.
"Hey, aren't that Luna??"
"She is..."
"Poor her... Her parents already left her..."
"Hope she's fine"
"Where do you think she had gone? It's been a long time we didn't see her?"
They all started to whisper and murmur as they all just look at her wolf figure running towards her house. As she arrived at her house, the blood and dead people are no longer there like someone had already cleaned it for her. She close the door as the vision of her walking towards the kitchen and saw her mother cooking.
"Oh! Eliza. When did you get home? I cook your favourite foods today. You will love it. I make it special just for you" Mother said with her prettiest smile. The vision vanished as Eliza fall on the floor crying hard. Eliza stood up and walked out of the house. She went straight to where her father died. She went there and there's no corpse of her father and even the blood. The vision started to play on her mind again as she saw her father was picking up the fruits on the ground that he had shot earlier.
"Oh! Little moon! Come here, try this. It's so delicious. We should bring this to your mother" Father said with his wide smile. The sight of her father kneeling down looking at her a bit far while smiling has vanished. Again Eliza cried fall on the dried leaves. She grips the dried leaves in her hands while crying hard.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry.... I fail to protect both of you...." Eliza lookup with her tears falling from her eyes. She looks at the sky.
"Mother... Father... The skies are so clear and clean. Mother, Father, I've done taking revenge... For you, and me..." Eliza said. Laughing bitterly while sniffing.
"I need to go back home..." Eliza said and stood up. Afterwards, she went back home. Christopher got home and Marilynn greet him. She told him that the dinner is ready and Christopher nod and went straight to freshen up. After freshening up, he went to find Eliza but found nothing. He thought Eliza must be with the others at the dining table. Christopher made his way to the dining table and took a seat. He looks up only to find Joseph, Cerberus, Marilynn and Sophitia. Eliza's not here as well. He frowned.
"Where's... Luna?" Christopher asked looking at them. They all look at each other with nervous looks.
{flashback}
They were outside with Eliza.
"Oh yeah. Don't tell Chris that I'm gonna leave okay?" Eliza said and they all nod their heads.
{end of flashback}
They look at Christopher.
"She said she took a walk outside for a minute," Sophitia said with confidence. Christopher nod slowly and eat the food. They, again look at each other with relief and all of them eat their food. It's been 1 year and it was Christmas day. Christopher always asked them where's Eliza but still, they all lied to him. Until now he still asked about Eliza. They started to get annoyed and ran out of idea what should they make an excuse. Christopher came home and again asked about Eliza. Cerberus facepalm and walked towards Christopher. Christopher looked at him questioning and Cerberus make his seat on the couch.
"What?" Christopher asked looking at them.
"Can't you stop asking about Eliza?" Joseph asked. Christopher frowned.
"Eliza? Who's Eliza? I'm asking about Luna" Christopher asked. They all understood as Eliza already told them that Christopher only know her surname.
"Luna is Eliza. Her full name is Aeryl Eliza Frye" Marilynn explained, revealing her real name.
"Her real name is Eliza? That means she's lying to me" Christopher said. And they immediately shook their heads.
"No-no-no. Luna is her surname. Everyone calls her Luna because she was born in the full moon" Cerberus immediately explained. Christopher nod. Christopher already know who they really are. He knows that they are not human. But the thing is, he still didn't' know who or what is Eliza. They all keep on explaining from the top until the end. Christopher frowned when they told him that Eliza want them to keep it secret that she's gonna go back to her home.
"Do you know where she lives??" Christopher asked curiosity.
"She lives in the forest area. You will meet a red ribbon tied to a black tree. And if you enter more deep, you'll meet the other people there-" Joseph explained on the way to Eliza's house but cut off went Christopher suddenly stood up from the couch. Christopher ran out of the house and ran inside the forest. He went deep in the forest and check every tree that had a red ribbon but he found nothing. He went the other way and finally found the black tree with a red ribbon. He went deeper more and finally, he saw a lot of people there. It was like another town that live peacefully. He went to one of the people and they all got startled as they all eyes on him.
"U-uhmm... Can I know where is Luna?" Christopher asked shouting. They all look at each other. They back away didn't stay anything not telling him where Eliza live. Christopher frowned. But he decided to fine Eliza by himself. He ran from there and everyone started to whisper to themselves. The snow had fallen from the sky as Eliza outside hold her hands out, touching the snow which is going to fall on her palm. She looks at it and smiled.
"Pretty..." Eliza said and suddenly heard someone call her name. She got startled and turn around to see who own the voice. As she was turning around, Suddenly a guy hug her tightly. Eliza again got startled but as soon as the smell hit her nose, her tears fall from her left eye.
"C-Ch-Chris?..." Eliza said more like a question.
"I finally found you...." Christopher said breathlessly. Eliza hugged him back and smiled while sniffing a bit.
"How did you know I'm here?" Eliza broke the silence.
"They told me..." Christopher replied. Eliza nod.
"Why did you come here?" Eliza asked again.
"Because..." A pause. Eliza frowned as he went silent. She broke the hug and look at him in the eyes.
"Because?"
"BECAUSE I MISS YOU. I LOVE YOU ELIZA" Christopher suddenly confess. Eliza widened her eyes.
"Wh-what?.." Eliza starts to blush.
"Please be my girlfriend," Christopher said holding both of her hands with hope in his eyes. Eliza smiled and nod her head.
"I would love to be your girlfriend" Eliza replied. Christopher smiled widely and hug her again as they laugh at each other.
"Thank you for trusting me... I'm sorry for aiming a gun at you at the lab" Christopher thank her and apologised to her as she just nods hearing him confessing everything.
"It's fine... I actually have lied to you too" Eliza said and Christopher broke the hug. look at her in the eyes.
"You did???" Christopher said questioning all over his face. Eliza chuckled. Before she could continue on what she was gonna say, she got interrupted by his sudden sneeze.
"I'm sorry" Christopher immediately apologise after he sneezes. Eliza laughs at him. Christopher smiles widely looking at her.
"Why are you laughing?? Is it so funny that I sneeze??" Christopher asked still putting his smiley face while looking at her lovingly. Eliza stop giggling while shook her head.
"Let's talk inside my house. It's cold outside" Eliza said and lead him inside her house.
