Chapter 2:

Blossom

Tales of Eden


Moon while sleeping wakes up in a white plain and sees someone. Everything but him and her has color. Moon wakes over to this person and says "Who are you and where am I?"

The person turns around and says "Hello, I am Astro, I am a god and I came to your dreams to finish your wish. O and it will take some time to take effect on your body but bear with it and here is a gift to keep you safe from death. But remember this if you die you will come back here also when you sleep, Goodbye for now Moon."

Moon wakes up and wonders what she just said and how she knew his name.

He gets ready for school, and after getting dressed leaves and knocks on all his sibling's doors to wake them up while yelling "Morning time".

Moon walks to the kitchen. He makes toast for himself and then goes to check on his sister opening the door.

He sees her still in bed sleeping soundly. Moon says "Wake up or I won't walk to school with you." Hikari wakes up and says "Wait don't leave me!" Moon says "I wasn't planning to leave you today, so get ready."

Hikari says "ok, be ready in a sec." Moon leaves her room while leaving he sees Eclipse walking out of his room to the front door. Moon shouts "Wait for us!"

Eclipse leaves without saying a word. Moon goes to get his bag, after getting his back before leaving he looks in the mirror seeing that his right eye has changed colors to red.

Moon says to himself "Well that's a first." Moon leaves the room and grabs his toast. Moon finishes his food, and Hikari says "Are you ready to go" Moon said, "Yeah but aren't you going to eat?"

Hikari dodges the question and says "Your right eye is red." Moon says "I don't know how it happened it just changed."

Hikari says "That's weird. You need to get that checked out!" Moon says "Fine. I will get it checked out." Moon isn't worried Hikari says "Go to the Nurse when we get to school!" Moon nods to her.

Moon and Hikari make it to the school, Hikari says to Moon "I will see you after class! Don't leave me behind again!"

Moon waves to his sister who is leaving. Moon just stands in place while being lost in thought. He thinks about yesterday. But more than anything he tries to keep his mind on the present than some fantasy or lie.

Moon decides to start walking but feels lonely while walking to class. Then he remembers to go to the Nurses office. Moon has the thought "I'm already at class. I might as well go in."

Moon makes it in the door and sees everyone's eyes on him, and it's not because of his eye it's because he is an outcast.

Moon became an outcast ever since his sister Hikari joined his school. Hikari is better than him in everyway. Hikari is at the top of her class and very good at sports. Hikari has a cute face compared to Moon's face full of despair and sadness.

Moon is mediocre in everything. Moon is seen as a carefree and trash loser compared to his overachiever sister. And his brother is unparallel in everything but on a higher level than Hikari. Eclipse is a pure genius in sports and smarts. Also in his looks too.

Moon goes to his seat and a girl approaches him not long after. She says "Good morning!" with a face of disgust. Moon says while taking a seat "What you want from me?" in a stern tone.

She says "I don't even what to talk to you but I have to. Anyway here." She holds up a paper. This girl was a red hair girl with yellow eyes. She is the female Class president. Her name is Daisy.

Moon looks at the paper and reaches for it and she drops it then says "Oops. My bad, loser!" Moon thinks "I want to hit her so bad but I will get suspended."

Moon lets it go and then grabs the paper off the floor. Daisy walks away and laughs. Moon reads the paper and it only says "Loser, Trash, Garbage, Die, We hate you, Nobody likes you."

These words are repeated on the paper. Moon crumbles it up and throws it.

Moon looks down at his desk waiting for class to start. He hears the other students talking about him. They say "How are Hikari and Eclipse related to them? Isn't he adopted? No wonder they look so different from him. So he is just a bastard child with no family?"

Everyday he hears nothing but insults but he pretends not to hear them. He hates them so much. He hates being compared to his own family. He especially hated being compared to Eclipse since he never met him. But most of all he hates himself for not being a better person and big brother.

Moon decides to go to sleep anyway since he has nothing better to do. He thought before he went to sleep "It's not like anyone will care anyway."
