I Missed You

Bathed in the ethereal glow of the moonlit ocean, she stood bare, her green hair illuminated by the boundless stars above, her reptilian gaze locked onto the young boy.

"Hm? What's going on? Have you forgotten how to greet an old friend? Let me help you..."

Her arms stretched wide, a radiant smile illuminating her face.

"Greetings, my little toy."

As Dora stood upright, his eyes glistened with a radiant spark, and his mouth fell open. With a hand trembling, he slowly extended it towards the girl, his breath entangled in a web of anticipation. In response, the young girl's smile stretched even wider, and her laughter echoed through the surroundings.

"We've waited too long now, come."

The ripples of the water spread from the girl to the boy. It wasn't an illusion, it wasn't a dream, she was real, in front of him.

"... Mid...gard."

Dora advanced towards her. The girl before him responded with a simple nod.
