The Moon and The Ocean

Ocean went back home. It was dusk by then. She didn't know how but she spent a whole day with Moon. As she stepped into the Villa, Jack came to her and wrapped his arms around her. For a moment she didn't understand what happened. He broke the hug and yelled at her.

Jack: Where the hell have you been?

She got scared, no one ever had talked to her this loud. Her eyes welled up and she ran back to her room. She locked herself in and sobbed hard. Ocean was a very pampered girl. Being an only child, her parents never scolded her, they never even raised their voices in front of her. She kept crying until all the tears engulfed her and she fell asleep.

On the other hand, Moon went back to his Villa and was welcomed by his angry, older brother, Zeus. Zeus wasn't just Moon's older brother but also the Alpha of the pack Moon's parents and all other creatures followed in New Orleans. He was strong, wise and very smart. All the other packs respected him. Moon was about to step in when Zeus blocked his way and asked him angrily.

Zeus: Where were you the whole day?

Moon: Chill bro, I was at the lake.

Zeus: The whole day?

Moon: Yep. Anything else, I'm hungry.

Zeus shook his head, seeing the childishness of his younger brother. Zeus knew about the gifted powers of Moon. It was his idea to keep it all a secret. He loved his younger brother so much and couldn't see him getting hurt ever. So they decided to keep Moon's powers a secret. He went back into the Villa, went to him and engulfed him in a long, strong bro hug. He had missed him. Moon was still a baby for him. He took all the responsibilities of the pack just because he never wanted his brother to bear all these burdens. He wanted Moon to live his life the way he wants. He broke the hug and they went to the dinning table together and ate together with so many brother to brother chats they hadn't had in a while.

if it wasn't for Moon, she would have died. Everyone knew that Ocean can't swim. Her father never let her. Fuming in anger, she held Ocean's hand and took her to the living room where the triplets were watching a movie along with their father. Lora turned off the TV and angrily asked them. They tried to deny it but Jack always knew whenever his daughters tried to
