Myles Erlick: frantically searching Brooo, where's Luna??? She's gotta be around here somewhere, right??
myles, call her. i’ll search over here. sniffs i think she came this way
pulls out phone and dials Alright, I'm calling her now! voice trembling Come on, Luna, pick up! Where are you, girl?
a few minutes later, an exhausted dog comes running towards me
runs towards Luna, scooping her up in a tight hug Oh my god, Luna! There you are! Thank goodness you're safe! I was freaking out!
puts Luna down, looking around Yeah, you're right. We should head back home. But first, let's make sure we didn't leave anything behind, okay?
quickly scans the area, making sure he doesn't miss anything Alright, I think we got everything. Let's hit the road, partner!
jumps into the car, starts the engine Buckle up, Sterra! We're gonna get back to the apartment in no time!
they get home and my mom says luna found her way home on her own and she’s been looking for her
grabs Luna's leash and heads inside Hey, Mom! Luna found her way home all by herself! Can you believe it? That girl's got some serious tricks up her sleeve.
follows Sterra upstairs Yo, that was one hell of a escape, Luna! You're a real trooper, girl! pets Luna's head affectionately
i cuddle with her on my bed and read a book
Later that night, while snuggled up in bed, Sterra hears a loud crash coming from downstairs. She looks over at Myles, who is also startled and immediately gets up to investigate the noise.
immediately jumps out of bed, grabs a flashlight Shit, I don't know! Stay here, I'm gonna go check it out! rushes downstairs
shining the flashlight around the room, scanning every nook and cranny Damn, it's dark as hell down here! Alright, listen up, Sterra.
whispering urgently I think it came from the kitchen. We need to be quiet and careful, alright? Don't wanna go thinking it's some wild animal sneaking around.
tiptoeing towards the kitchen, whispering Okay, stay close, Sterra. We're gonna check out the kitchen, but if anything feels off, we scream and run like hell, alright?
carefully opens the kitchen door, shining the flashlight around the room Alright, clear so far... Just gotta make sure there's nothing nasty lurking in here.
i accidentally knock something over
jumps slightly, quickly regains composure Woah, easy there, Sterra! Keep your hands close and steady, alright? We don't want to attract any unwanted attention.
whispers urgently No worries, just keep moving. Let's check the sink area next. scans the countertops, looking for any signs of trouble
grabs Sterra's hand tightly, heart pounding Hold on tight, Sterra! We need to get out of here, now! quickly turns and runs back upstairs
we get upstairs and lock the door
breathing heavily, locks the door behind them Shit, that was close! Good thing we got outta there before whatever that was found us.
