The soft light surrounding Luna had a calming effect on her. The wounds on her body were starting to heal quickly that Siegfried would have thought while he healed her. He stared at the lost princess. On the big blue bed they had given her in her new room. It seemed just like yesterday when the ball happened...

"What?!" His father Marx spat at the Emperor, "This girl can't be your daughter! She's dead! You said so yourself!"

"I was wrong!" Robin shouted at him, his eyes held the pain of years of agony. "She alive and in my arms! I know that scar from anywhere!"

His father growled as he stepped closer to them. Siegfried had ran from the group of people rushing to escape and ended up seeing this. When he saw Luna on the ground in her own blood, his heart stopped beating for a second. The need to go to her was stronger than ever, if not for his father in the way of healing her.

"You're a fool Robin. You always have been."

His father turned around and glanced in Siegfried direction. The cold dark menacing glare was hard enough to cut through glass, but enough also to see into Siegfried's soul. His father ticked to himself before leaving the three- no four- royals along.

Empress Amber came down the steps in a hurry and knelt down by her husband, who pushed a strand of Luna's auburn hair behind her ear.

"Robin my dear, are you sure this is are daughter?"

He gave a quick nod. But it was clear to see the happiness in his worried lines. "Amber I know it is. This scar," He pulled back Luna's hair to reveal a crescent shaped scar on her neck, "Means are daughter is found and isn't dead."

Tears streamed down the beautiful face of Empress Amber. She looked down at Luna's face as tears fell down gently on her pained face. "My baby princess..."

The Empress gently hugged Luna to her. Sobs rocked her body as the Emperor join in on the hugging. A pain of jealousy stabbed at Siegfried heart. He never could remember if his family ever hugged each other like that before.

The family hug was soon cut off short as Siegfried spoke finally. "I-If I may your highness, can I heal Luna's wounds."

"Who's Luna?"

"The girl you are holding sire."

They Emperor and Empress looked down at the pale girl. Amber broke out a smile Robin hadn't seen in years.

"Luna... I love her name. Suits her just right. Beautiful and pale as the moon herself."

"Yes it is." Robin said.

Siegfried blinked the memory away again for the tenth time this day. He scowled at himself as try to focus on his task at hand. Luna has been out for a whole week, doctors say weakness of blood lost.

Siegfried just when along with their theory as he knew the real reason. Luna was afraid if she woke up, everything she thought would be a lie in her face.
