{Christy's Outfit}

"Luna? Trinity? I have to tell you something." Christy said to her daughters.

"It's about the battle, isn't it?" Luna asked, worriedly.

"Yeah, it is." Christy replied. "I'm leaving for Thassaedion."

Luna and Trinity exchange worried looks at each other.

"I know you two are worried about me about what you know about the undefeated Thassaedion Spartans." Christy said.

"When are you leaving?" Luna asked.

"I don't know, but Maximus, Zenith, Thalia and I are gonna be receiving a parchment paper from your grandfather, Ames." Christy told her daughters.

"The Thassaedion Spartans are mean and they don't give up so easily." Trinity said.

"I know." Christy said.

"Just come back home." Luna said.

"I won't make any promises to you guys, but I will come back home." Christy reassured her daughters.

Christy, Luna and Trinity exchange small smiles at each other.

Christy slowly walks up to the waterfall and sees her grandmother, Celia, slowly wandering in the water.

Celia is collecting seashells and she senses her granddaughter, Christy. "If you have come to say your farewell..." she trailed off and turns around to look at Christy. "... I do not want to hear it."

Celia and Christy exchange worried looks at each other.

"You still collect seashells, grandma?" Christy asked, slowly walks up to her in the water.

"I do." Celia replied. "You used to assist me with my seashell collection, remember?"

"I do. And I still do sometimes." Christy replied.

Celia and Christy exchange small smiles at each other.

"I've seen the statue of you in the Museum Of Orasani Mythology." Celia said.

"Yeah, I was surprised myself." Christy said to her grandmother, and folds her arms. "Grandma? I didn't come to you to say goodbye, I came to see you."

Celia small smiles to herself as she gently fiddles with the damped seashells in her hand. "You are a great warrior, Christiana. And your name is in the Orasani Mythology."

Celia slowly walks up to her granddaughter, Christy, and gently caress her cheek with her hand. "So, I will not say farewell to you, my granddaughter. Because you will return home alive and well."

Christy turns around to look at Ana. "Hi, Ana. Thanks for meeting me here."

"Klaus filled me in on everything, so, if you asked me to meet you here to say goodbye, you can forget it." Ana said.

"I didn't ask you to come here to say goodbye, I can tell that you and I are gonna become best friends much later on." Christy said.

"That still sounds like a goodbye." Ana said, slowly walks up to Christy.

"So, maybe, to strengthen our friendship more by a Mai tai drink when I get back?" Christy asked.

"Yeah, sure. Just don't try to get bruised much." Ana said.

"I'll try not to." Christy said.

That evening, in Luna's room, she's sitting at her canvas easel, painting on her canvas with her paintbrush.

"I know you're there, Dad." Luna said, and looks at her Dad. "You don't have to keep an eye on me and Trinity."

"I know. I'm just checking on you and your little sister. Trinity is asleep." Klaus said, slowly walks inside and sits down on the ottoman. "Nice painting."

"Thanks." Luna thanked her with a small smile. "I miss Mom already."

"I know, so do I. But she'll come back home." Klaus reassured her.

"Can I be honest with you, Dad?" Luna asked.

"Of course." Klaus replied.

"Whenever Mom goes away on her mission tasks or a battle, it's like a empty void, you know." Luna said to her Dad.

"I know, but your mother always comes back home." Klaus said, getting up to his feet. "Get some sleep."

"Okay, goodnight, Dad." Luna said.

"Goodnight, sweetheart." Klaus said, and walks away.

Luna looks at a picture frame of Christy, herself and Trinity making silly faces.

Luna small smiles to herself and awaits for her Mom, Christy, returns back home.

"Yeah, and I'm sure Gia misses you too." Christy said to him.

"Christy, you need some sleep, you're gonna need your strength and energy." Max said.

"I know." Christy said.

Max and Christy fist bumps each other and he walks away. She looks at her engagement ring and wedding ring on her left hand ring finger.
