Maybe we should find another human, there’s plenty more out there in the world after all,” Luna suggested nervously. Falla looked to her with a stern expression, causing Luna to jump a bit and back up with a nervous smile.
“I mean, I don’t want to see you get hurt, that’s all,” Luna quickly added.
“I am not letting this one get away! I’m sick and tired of men always getting away from us. This one promised to help me, and I’m going to make him keep his word, his seed is rightfully mine!” Falla argued. Luna nodded slowly then looked around the area worriedly.
“Well… then what do we do now?” she asked.
“We need to go after them and wait for another chance. Those other girls can’t watch him all day every day, he’ll be alone eventually, and when he is that’s when we grab him,” Falla said as she looked off to where the travelers had gone. She then smirked and glanced to her sister.
“Once we steal him away we’ll use him to get pregnant, both of us. You hold him down for me, and then I’ll hold him down for you, that’s what he deserves for trying to weasel out of our deal,” she said confidently. Luna watched her for a moment before a deranged smile came across her face.
“WE’RE GOING TO RAPE HIM TOGETHER?” she screamed out before laughing crazily. Falla chuckled and nodded.
“Yeah, why not, we’re sisters after all,” she mused, with Luna looking off towards where the caravan rode off with a twisted smile, the girl laughing wildly through a big smile on her face. Falla laughed and looked in that direction as well.
“C’mon, Luna, his seed shall be ours!” she declared before taking off into the air with her wings. She flew up over the trees before stopping and looking back to seeing her sister still on the ground. Luna was looking off to the side with a curious expression while remaining motionless.
“Luna? What are you waiting for, let’s go,” Falla called down. She watched her sister stand there for a moment then looked over to see what she was staring at. Over on the other side of the river a young girl was seen walking out from the trees. She looked to be around nine years old, wearing a simple white and brown dress that had blood splattered all over it. The girl was missing a shoe, the one she still had on her left foot having blood on it as well, and was walking slightly off-balance while her arms remained at her sides. Her short brown hair was messy and had some leaves and dirt in it, the girl’s blue eyes wearily looking around as she stumbled out of the bushes and staggered along on the grass.
“Is that… a kid?” Falla asked curiously.
The child seemed to be in a daze, walking forward with unsteady steps while whimpering and murmuring to herself. Luna watched the girl curiously as the child kept walking towards the river, before promptly falling into it with a splash.
“Oh my gosh, hey! Hey!” Luna called out as she ran over to the edge of the river. She searched around the moving river quickly before seeing the girl floating to the top of the water further away.
“Hey!” Luna called out before she took off into the air after the kid. She flew over the water quickly, watching as the little girl remained motionless in the water while face-up.
“Hey, are you alright?” Luna asked loudly as she flew closer to the child. She grabbed hold of the girl and flew up into the air, seeing that the girl was unconscious.
“Please, wake up, please wake up,” Luna begged while gently shaking her.
“What are you doing? Put that girl down, we have to go after Daniel!” Falla called out. Luna shook her head and flew down towards the riverbank, with Falla groaning with annoyance before following after her.
“Please wake up, hey, c’mon,” Luna said gently as she landed on the grass and knelt down with the child in her arms. Falla landed next to them and looked at the young child with a raised eyebrow.
“What are you doing? Put her down, we have get going or else we’ll lose Daniel,” she reminded while shaking her head.
“We can’t just leave her here, and I think she’s hurt,” Luna said worriedly.
“There’s no way a child is all the way out here on her own, her family is likely close by, and the last thing they’re going to want to see next to a kid is a monster, let alone two,” Falla pointed out expectedly while waving to herself and her sister.
“But, Falla, something happened to her,” Luna said looking over the child’s dress, seeing the blood marks all over the clothing. The girl herself didn’t seem to have any cuts or wounds though, so it was hard to say if the blood was hers or not.
“All the more reason for us not to be seen with her. Luna, you know as well as I do that children are not to be messed around with, humans get very protective of their young, and that’s all the more reason for them to kill us for even being around this child,” Falla warned.
“But we can’t leave her alone like this, she’s not safe here,” Luna pleaded while looking to her sister with worried eyes.
“Luna, we’re not safe with her! Again, she’s a child! Only the most horrible and depraved monsters mess with children, and if we’re seen with her then guess what, we’re number one on the humans’ hit list! Leave her here and let’s get going, if her family finds us then they’ll hunt us down like animals!” Falla cried out. Luna looked at her worriedly then to the child. Before she could speak the girl started to groan weakly and shift slightly in the butterfly monster’s arms.
“Oh crap, she’s waking up. Luna, we have to go, now,” Falla urged quickly.
“I can’t leave her like this, it’s not right,” Luna said shaking her head.
“You don’t even know this girl. Look, you saved her from drowning, good job, so let’s get going now before her family comes and kills us,” Falla pleaded desperately.
Slowly the young child’s eyes opened, not seeming to focus on anything as she appeared to be in a daze still. Her hand slowly moved up to touch Luna’s arm, the child wearily looking around a bit while water dripped from her hair.
“Um… are you… ok?” Luna asked softly.
