Chereads / Reunion in another world; Luna / Chapter 8 - Chapter 8 home

Chapter 8 - Chapter 8 home

Luna was on a ship looking over the beautiful lake. "Whooaa!!" People were pushing the sail with wind magic to move the ship forward. She put down a sack of money on a table and opened her map. This ship only cost me 5 small silver coins; I have no idea where I got all this money from, but it is handy now. It was a big sailor ship with around fifteen people on it, it was a ship that brought people from the mainland to the city of Poseidon. The city of Poseidon is placed in a crater of a meteorite. The ship arrived at the port and Luna walked out of the ship, she looked over the railing. Looking down at the abyss she could see the city of Poseidon. Surrounded by waterfalls like a wall of water, they were about six meters high. 

The castle in the center is the central and most striking element. It has an impressive and lofty structure reminiscent of a combination of natural and architectural. The castle has towering structures, several towers of different heights, with one tower appearing to be significantly taller than the rest. The style seems to be medieval, with elements such as battlements, spires and bridges. This adds to the fairy tale and mystical look. The castle has earth tones that harmonize with the natural surroundings. The materials used appear robust, possibly stone, which is typical of a fortified structure. She walked on a staircase down the way to the city below. 

Luna was happily walking through the streets of Poseidon. 

The streets are picturesque and idyllic on a quiet water canal. In the center of the streets runs a narrow water canal, lined by traditional medieval houses. Across the canal is a stone arch bridge covered with flowers and greenery. On both sides of the canal are half-timbered houses. The houses have wooden beams, stone walls, and tile roofs. Many of the houses are decorated with flowers, both hanging from windows and growing along the walls. In the right foreground, a wooden rowboat is docked at the quay. 

Luna was looking at a beautiful sight and was stunned by the scene. She was looking at a natural rock arch on the coast. The arch is carved into a limestone cliff, with clear turquoise water below. On both sides were ports with ships to take away people. She was standing in front of a footstall on the port. Finally I can move away from this city. it's been two months since I got here. The reason why it took so long until the ships were available is because on the ocean, there were big storms that needed to settle down. With the money I got, I rented an inn for myself until now. 

"How much is this fish?" she asked in the language of Poseidon. The city of Poseidon is the city of water and fish. So far, the only food source Luna saw people eat, was fish. "I hate water." Luna said to herself while taking a bite from the fish. She was sitting on a bench waiting for the ship to dock. "I don't like fish, it way to salty." Luna's expression was sour. "I am tired of the taste and the smell." The only thing Luna had eaten so far was fish. "Buy the most delicious crabs in the world! Fwhahah!" she heard. That laughter I remember that? Who was it? As she looked for the person making that sound, she came across a cloaked figure, it looked like a person, the person was really small, the figure was wearing dark, simple clothing, befitting someone who may be less fortune or in need. The smell coming of the person smelled like fish. "Kiruaki Kiriari?" she said hesitantly. "Who dares so brave to say my name? In this place that smells like trimethylaminuria!" and she threw up. Kiruaki Kiriari was selling purple crabs. The crabs were purple on the claws and on their paws, the crab had four claws two on the side and two above them. "Ah! The one that lost her memories...

Oh, is it so out of control?" she said touching her chin. She knows I lost my memories? I know her name, but I have no idea who she is. Was she a friend? Maybe she knows who I made my promise to. "Hey, miss..." Luna wanted to ask something when she got cut off by Kiruaki Kiriari. She snapped her finger to get Luna's full attention. "I don't know anything." she said with a serious face. "You are almost there just take the ship and go to Deity. Don't stop. You need to make it back and find the one named Tatsuya Fukushu." Tatsuya Fukushu? Have I heard that name somewhere before? 

HONK!!! 

That is the horn to signal that they are going to leave. "Go! Don't stop, you can make it!" Kiruaki Kiriari said one final time.

Luna nodded and ran to the ship.

Luna sits on a bench with a sack of purple crab and her maps. She was researching the fastest route to the city of Deity. Kiruaki Kiriari had given her a free sack of purple crabs. At least they didn't smell like fish. The boat trip will be at least a month and a half until we make it to land. The reason why it takes so long is because of the heavy weather it can occur there, but it has settled down enough for ships to transport people. The boat trip had gone smoothly, only one day there were big storms and waves that reached almost ten meters. 

Luna jumped off the ship and stretched her body. "Finally, land!" she screamed. She arrived at a small village named Pontus. Luna rented a goat carriage and was on her way to Deity. On her way she heard rumors the empire had fallen. It took her about two and a half weeks to get to the city of Deity. It was already dark, but Luna was standing in front of the gate, there were no guards, no people who wanted to get in or out. It was awfully quiet. She walked through thick metal doors, doors that looked almost impossible to break. Her expression turned to shocked and disbelief. Am I really supposed to go here? Is this Deity? 

The city of Deity was in flames, around her buildings were collapsing smoke and dust floated in the air like clouds. It looked like a ghost town. Luna was walking through the city confused, she walked through the city's streets and came along an alleyway. I can vaguely remember this street, I can't remember what happened, but I know it wasn't a fun memory. As she walked further, she saw the church, the castle, it was all on fire. There were also no people trying to put the fire down.... 

"Goha!!" Luna threw up by the horrifying sight that was before her. Before the church entrance there were five spikes with the heads of people. It looked like they had been there for a while because it looked like they were decaying. Luna couldn't dare to look at them.

WHAT?! Is going on I need to get out of here! She began to run desperately searching for a way out. It looked like hell; this is what hell looks like.Then she heard a voice.

"Luna!!"

She stopped and turned around. A girl screamed out her name, she had long dark purple hair with two braids that were hanging over her shoulders. She holds two katana's and looks like she had gone through a lot of battles, burn marks on her black yukata with beautiful flowers and bruises on her face. "How are you here? You got killed by the demon of greed. On our way to Deity two years ago!" Two years ago? I have no idea who this person is, but she surely knows who I am, but I died? Maybe she knows who Tatsuya Fukushu is? "I am sorry, but I have no idea who you are." The girl's expression turned to sadness and confusion. "I am Chika Utsukushi, I am the one that saved you from the man in the clothing store that wanted to kill you." Chika said. It sounds familiar but I can't remember it. "I am sorry, I have no memory of that, but I came here to search for someone named Tatsuya Fukushu. Do you know perhaps know him?" Luna asked. "So, you have forgotten him too." Chika said softly. "Yes, I know him, come with me!" They ran out of the city into a forest. The forest had high conifers trees and it was foggy. 

A brown-haired boy was lying on the ground in pain. He wears a diamond pattern kimono with holes and blood on it like he was injured. The boy was holding his katana in front of him like he was defeated. On top of him was a small girl standing she had long white and pink colored hair and a small flower in her hair. She was holding two sickles one in each hand; she was wearing a flower pattern shirt and a white reddish skirt. I can't see if it is white or red because of all the blood. 

That's him! That is the guy I have been searching for. He is in danger I need to do something. Luna looked at Chika, she also looked shocked. "There are more...." she said softly in a defeated tone. Luna got her knife ready and jumped at the girl. 

"Hhaaa!!" she screamed.

Two blades clashed against each other, and the girl jumped away from Tatsuya. 

Luna looked back at Tatsuya. Everything about him seems familiar but I can't lay my finger on it. "Tatsuya Fukushu, I don't know who you are, but I am here to save you!" she said with a confident and proud look. Tatsuya only looked shocked by the scene that was being portrayed before him. "Luna?" he whispered. As Tatsuya said that Luna launched herself forward at the girl with the sickles. 

At last, the girl that got teleported to a strange land found her way back.
