Chapter 59

Mira sits in her room after a long bath. Lupin left after Dinner.

Luna knocks on the door.

Mira opens it and smiles, "Hey."

"My dad is outside the shield. I asked Scorpio to bring his friends so we can enjoy a few hours together. There's a really nice lake between the borders. I was inviting you to come." Luna says.

Mira nods happy to see Luna has changed out of her dress, "Yes." She grabs Lupin's jacket to give it back.

Jet opens a portal with teens and the new members.

They meet at the Lake and swim in the water.

Wish smiles meeting Angela, Charlie and her siblings and the new members. He sits down with his daughter.

Lycan swims in the water with the boys while the girls sit by themselves getting to know each other.

Issac shows everyone their camp behind Scorpio's wall.

"Wow, dad you stay here too?" Luna asks.

"Dad?" Lupin asks.

Luna covers her mouth, "He grew on me this winter." She says hoping they believe that.

"Dodge and Lily told me to stay with them. They're not part of the army. Bonus points Scorpio puts a roof over our head, I put food on the table. These boys are well behaved I couldn't ask for better bunk mates." Wish says.

Luna smiles, "I'm glad you're close." She gives him a hug.

Cobra plays some music.

Luna walks inside the kitchen adding snacks and leaving a cake and large buckets of Granger melon juice.

Scorpio licks his lips starving again, "Can I get some hot food?" He asks Luna.

She wishes for large pots with food out of habit.

"Ohh, that smells so good." Rozain says grabbing a snack.

~~~

"I heard we're getting a house to share together. Is it true Mira?" Sarah asks.

Mira nods, "Yes. Luna and Toya will share houses with the new people. The rest of us share a house together. You're with Luna." She says with her eyes glowing.

Sarah celebrates excited.

Rex laughs when the other girls bargain trades.

Lycan joins the girls happy that Aya will be with Luna, "Good. I don't trust anyone else with her. I'm assuming we can't access each others houses huh."

"Good, you boys have a bad habit of just getting comfortable on people's beds." Dodge exposes the truth.

Luna smiles, "I'm happy about it too. Anyway. We should make sure we don't forget midnight we must be at home." She says standing up to swim in the water.

Toya heats up the water his blood boiling when Scorpio is flirting with Luna who is completely clueless about it.

"Is the water hot? That's a first." Lupin says enjoying a nice soak.

The teens enjoy themselves until midnight going back home.

Colin waiting for them takes them to their shared homes, "Luna you are with, Aya, Kate, Beauty, Xaaria, Sarah, Tina, Kazumi, and Una. The rest of you are in the house next door. Toya you are with, Terra, Lycan, Luke, Cheshire, Raiden, Staria and Medallion. The rest of you are in the house next door. Your bands project your room number and directions. I'll see you kids tomorrow."

~~~

Luna gathers the girls in her house in the living room and they are about to enjoy a steam session.

Sarah shaves their heads and applies her old sculpts treatment. They drink the water, apply body mask and wait for it to dry.

Once it's dry Luna and Sarah wear their corsets.

"Tell anyone outside of this house about this you are so shunned." Luna says.

She applies the new stick and all the girls sleep enjoying the steam session.

~~~

Mira enjoys the steam session with the girls in her house, "I really missed this." She says.

Rin nods lying down, "We'll talk tomorrow."

~~~

Early in the morning the girls in Luna's camp shower together and she wishes for breakfast happy Mina watched the baby while she was steaming.

Luna gifts her a new dress, "Thank you."

Mina bows leaving.

Luna feeds the baby and than baths her before changing her.

After breakfast the girls all clean up their bedrooms before exchanging their light bulbs for healing ones.

Once the house is clean it's time to eat again and than the girls go to Colin asking what they can do today.

Colin asks if they can help clean up today.

Luna nods asking Scorpio to come take Rue so she spends time with her dad.

She works around the camp until evening when the girls in her house meet in the garage to workout.

"We will be hotter than those girls, understand me?"

Sarah laughs at Luna's competitive side.

After working out they bath together. Luna and Sarah treat the girls hair than they go out to eat at the park.

The boys join Everyone when they smell Luna's cooking at the park.

Lycan smiles tilting Una's chin up, "You're looking better already."

Aya smiles, she was thinking the same thing too.

"Camp Lana invited us to the Spider Lily festival. In 3 weeks time. I want Una to go there looking really good." Avalon says liking her shaved head.

Luna smirks, "That's enough time for us. Don't worry about it." She says smiling.

After everyone is done eating they sit chatting at the park.

Evanah walks towards the group when she sees them, "Hi you guys. Have you heard? Some soldiers were killed by the Infected."

Split shakes his head, "We were cleaning up this entire place, sorry. Where did it happen?"

"Caves in deep forest. My dad was near by delivering goods to a cave. They no longer use their stones to guard against the Infected, they instead use them to buy food, after the Infected woke up they were reminded it's not over yet."

Lycan crosses his arms, "I think it was Billy's group. They are the only ones I heard talking about going so far."

"No use crying about it, as long as an Infected was the cause of death. It could cause war if they find out it's any other reason." Avalon says.

Mira's group finally leave the house and join Luna and the boys, "What did you guys do today?" She asks feeling well rested.

"Cleaned up the entire place. Luna's team pitched in for hours. It helped out alot." Split says yawning.

"Ohh, it looks spotless, what are we doing tomorrow?" Dodge asks.

"Maintenance. We'll have to decide who does what and it's your responsibility from now. Luna's group is mostly newbie's, but they handled the littering issue well. I think you guys can stick to that. Split can stick to drains. We have trees to cut, grass to cut. Winter fruit to harvest. Acid rains are coming back. Black mist is slowly coming back too. We have the golden shield we have nothing to worry about, we might be sent out on errands again." Rex says.

"I heard a few camps have been requesting Luna and Sarah's products. Camp Lana is crazy about it. My dad said no unfortunately. Not to mention my Camp Chat has so many girls from Camp Lana texting me naked pictures." Toya shakes his head.

"I have girls from all over. It's so annoying." Sharon says reading a book.

Lycan awkwardly growls, "Do we have to go to that event?" He asks feeling like he's being bated into a trap.

"We can't say no since they came to our camp, it's also the only place with Spider Lily's. If we come back with a few we won't need to go back next year. They have plants we need, food and herbs in that territory. That's what we're going for." Mira says.

Evanah smiles at her dad who walked out of the house looking for her.

"Don't spend too much time out kids. Tomorrow is stock refill day. I hope you won't be tired." Happy says.

Chronos stands up, "That's my cue to leave."

Luna nods saying goodbye to Evanah with a hug. When they arrive at home they do their usual routine steaming in their sleep.

Luna wakes up early morning going with her group to New Moon to help Angela carry her things back home.

Luna received a call from her dad she forgot about Rue.

"Be careful of Infected okay, they're coming out of hibernation and the black mist is coming back." Luna warns.

"I will, call before coming here. I will send Scorpio to come get you. I think the Infected are passing through." Wish says.

"Okay, is it okay if I come get her after they have passed the area for safety's sake?" She asks opening Angela's room.

"Of course." Wish says happy about that.

"I love you."

"I love you Luna."

Luna hangs up happy to see Angela back, "How did the stick treat you?"

Angela sighs, "Terribly. The benefits are worth it." She says smiling happy to meet the new members.

Luna and the girls sit together learning how to sow while Luna asks Angela to soak her womb in healing salts.

They spend days in doors but once a week go out to clean up the city.

~~~

Royal smiles hearing good news that Luna is coming with the girls from his Camp that stayed in Murasaki. He checks the time and then takes a nap. He wakes up and Luna is here donating her feminine products.

Una smiles at her mom.

"Wow, tell me what you do there. It's only been a two weeks there yet you've changed so much." Her mother says.

Una walks to her house and shows her mom the hamper and how every night consistently the have been using it until she stopped bleeding black toxin. Now she has her actual periods.

"Ohh, are you going to Camp Lana at Midnight?" Her mother asks.

"Yes, I should get going. We have to be done by then." Una says.

"Is that Una? What did they do to her at Murasaki? Look at the skimpy dress she's wearing. She never had a figure like that."

"I heard doing that steam session with a corset on wll do that to you. I want to try some."

Aya smiles at her sister, "Get well soon okay? Please don't forget to do what I told you. I'll see you at Lana. Don't be late the hired portal user said midnight or get left behind."

Aya's mother waves goodbye happy she received extra supplies compared to everyone else. She has been using the free hamper these past weeks and at the Lana festival she is going to wow everyone.

Aya's mother goes inside the house and looks at the corset she never used. She regrets it now seeing Aya, but the results she'll get between now and the festival are enough.

~~~

Susan smiles when Split helps her carry her outfits ready to sell more again. Sarah asked the other girls to help her today.

Aira stretches ready for the race Camp Lana set. They have too many Spider Lily's so everyone must uproot as many as they can properly.

Thomas is ready for the plucking up of plants from Camp Lana.

Colin reminds everyone there's 12 minutes until midnight to hurry up or they get left behind.

At Midnight Kevin portals everyone to Camp Lana and smiles happy he gets a do over to enjoy a festival with his wife.

Sarah and the girls help her mother set up.

The shop is flooded by people.

Mira and Dodge are the idea sketchers.

Luna is happy that everyone on her team is wearing matching outfits, Crop tops and Cargo pants.

It's long sleeve and very warm.

Susan sells dresses. For an original design and on the spot sewing it's 20 stones.

Colin approved of the business because Susan gave all her stones to Thomas.

Others are opening food stands.

Mira is surprised when Lupin and the boys are here.

"Wish wants us to make stones, so we're here to sell food at the most affordable price. I'll see you for lunch time okay?" Lupin cups Mira's chin kissing her before he high fives the other girls.

Luna smiles seeing someone ask for the dress she wore at the festival, "Do you think Diane would enjoy helping? She's the one who designed my dress."

Diane arrives with the Light Phoenix, "She's the dress maker. I would be honoured if you let her have fun."

"I would be honoured to see more of her beautiful designs. You're welcome here." Luna bows politely.

Everyone runs to the shop seeing the Light Phoenix making dresses.

"How much for that one?" A girl asks.

"30 stones. It comes with shoes." Susan says.

~~~

Lycan hugs Aya from behind, "You look tired, what's wrong?"

"I am helping at the counter now and it's so busy I didn't see it from behind the scenes. I hope the break is 2 hours long. I could use a nap." Aya says.

Lycan looks around before activating the time vault letting Aya sleep and she feels better. When she wakes up it's only been an hour to everyone else, "Please don't tell anyone." He looks Aya in the eyes.

She smiles, "I won't." They eat together only to find out the others also fell asleep in Toya's time vault.

The break ends and there's an announcement for a beauty contest. Round one is winter wear. Round two will be swim wear. Round three will be everyone's best outfit. The grand price is 1000 stones.

Lana smiles happy about all the women paying 1 stone to enter the contest.

The women from Murasaki flock to enter the contest and run to Susan's store paying for swim wear.

Light Phoenix Solaris asks Beauty to model swim wear since she sews the slowest.

Beauty smiles watching Solaris cover her up so fast it's like she was never naked.

Cheshire takes his jacket off and covers her up, "If anyone wants to see a swimsuit they can see it on me." He says to Solaris bluffing.

She chuckles calling his bluff holding the scissors out.

"I don't mind." Minah says since she didn't have money to enter the contest.

"Thanks for the save Mimi." Cheshire kisses her cheek.

Beauty decides to design swim wear, after being in that swim suit ideas flood her mind.

"Ohh, I love that one." Solaris dresses Minah in the suit and she models it smiling at all eyes on her.

Luna is designing swimsuits she would never wear but she wants to see it on someone else. Toya would lose it if he ever saw her in them.

She wraps it up for a girl who just asked for a swimsuit no context.

Julia asks Luna for a warm cosy outfit yet feminine.

Dodge writes down the idea Luna has in mind and gives it to Solaris who loses her mind with excitement.

She gives the gift to Julia who tells Susan, Luna will pay.

The contest administrator arrives and Charges Luna 25 Stones.

Luna chuckles paying and shakes her head at everyone who just said she would pay.

"I could have just let you pay?" Minah asks surprised.

"Stand still Minah, it's time for your next outfit. I am inspired." Solaris snapping her scissors.
