Chapter 26 - Chapter 26 Reunion Before Twilight

Three years later, in the forbidden forest where lays a Douglas fir beside the bench, watching out at the cliff, the Douglas fir looks like the same, but just adds three more rings in his heart, which are engraved by three-year-long yearnings.

Lunar who's a centuries-old vampire queen and a sleeply beauty on the soft pink quilt among pink enchanted roses, she opens her sleeply eyes like three years before, when she smells the scent of forest mixed with the aura of werewolf.

Solar who's a new-born werewolf and a senior wizard graduated from the Dark Church, he left the forbidden forest three years ago, and now comes back before twilight, when today sunset is like eggplant purple, drifting eastward over forest couple.

He runs like a child at the twilight, shifting through fleeting trees toward the Douglas fir beside the bench, where stands a good teacher, a long-lost friend, Lunar Tudor.

She stretches out her hands, hugging him close to her arms. At that moment she feels that her empty heart is filled, and her cold body is warmed again.

Lunar: Solar! Solar! You are back!

Solar: Lunar! Can I call you Lunar?

Lunar: Nobody calls me Lunar, except my family. Now I privilege you to be the only one who's allowed to call me Lunar.

Solar: I have your honor to call you Lunar. Lunar! I can't express how much I miss you. I'm so lonely. I've finished twenty things one by one; I've traveled ten thousand miles around the magic world; I've broken two ribs, when I slay the seven-head sharp; I've broken another two ribs, when I engage in a magic combat with a young dragon girl. But it's all been worthwhile to finally get to see you here again.

Lunar: Oh, Solar, my poor silly boy. I shouldn't ask you to slay the seven-head sharp and engage in a magic combat with a young dragon girl. How are your ribs?

Solar: Don't worry, Lunar. I'm a werewolf, possessed with the ability of accelerated healing and regeneration. What doesn't kill me, only makes me stronger.

Lunar: I'd like to take you to watch a view. Come up here with me, please.

She climbs up the huge Douglas fir, watching out at the outside world, with a view of today's sunset. Which is eggplant purple, drifting eastward over forest couple.

He does a magic to float his body, floating up to the branch beside her. Only sky knows how long he's been waiting for this moment to witness sunset with her.

Solar: I'm so delighted to witness sunset with you. I would have missed my pleasure of watching sunset with you, if I couldn't come back to you before twilight.

Lunar: I've witnessed one thousand sunrises and sunsets, but to witness sunset with a guy, it's my first time. I will ever remember my first time to witness sunset with you, as I will ever remember my first time to witness sunrise with you.

Solar: The first sunrise was like lemon yellow, sprinkling greatness of sun over meadow. Today sunset is like eggplant purple, drifting eastward over forest couple. It's beyond splendid, but it sets so quick.

Lunar: It's so beautiful yet so brief. Let's get down the tree, and talk about your stories.

They jump down the Douglas fir, sit on the bench, and talk about his stories.

Solar: Three years ago, as soon as I came back home, I met an unexpected guest, who invited me to join them and serve for the God of Light.

Lunar: This guy must be from the Light side. How did you response to him?

Solar: I realized he must be from the Light side, when I heard he said the God of Light. And I had decided to join the Dark side, so I politely turned him down.

Lunar: What did he do to you, when you turned him down?

Solar: He was a very decent gentleman. He said that it's a beautiful future on my hand, and he wished I could always do the right things with my talent. He threw those words, and left my house at the daylight.

Lunar: Was there anyone else invited you to join the Dark side?

Solar: I realized that my magic talent was discovered by the magic world, as soon as I walked out the forbidden forest. I didn't know how to go to the Dark side, but I knew the Dark side would come for me. I waited all day at home, but I didn't see anyone else, until I saw a beautiful woman laying on my bed, when I went to bed.

Lunar: What? Did they use beauty scheme to you? Did she seduce you to join them?

Solar: It's a beautiful mistake actually. She explained that she was a freshman student at the Dark Church, who accepted the mission to invite me to join them. She just used space portal, and accidentally descended on my bed.

Lunar: What did you response to her?

Solar: I said that I'd love to join them, but I didn't know how to go to the Dark Church.

Lunar: What did she do to you, when you expressed your intention?

Solar: She grabbed on my hand, and took me to the Dark Church through space portal. I was surprised that she did magic in the muggle world, but she explained that there's no law broken, as long as I could keep this secret, or I could be obliviated.

Lunar: Most of members in the Dark side have no respect to the rules, and often do secret things in the dark. What happened next?

Solar: I met the one who sat on the throne of the Dark Church, who was elected as the dark pope, and who was a black American.

Lunar: What did he do to you?

Solar: He offered me a contract, and asked me to sign the contract.

Lunar: What kind of contract did you sign?

Solar: It's a magic contract. Once I was contracted, I shall never betray the Dark side. Or else my soul shall be sold to the devils, and my flesh shall be sold to dark wizards and dark witches for their secret experiments.

Lunar: That sounds very dark style.
