I’m sure they’ll find a home she can stay at during their travels. The important thing is that we keep Emily with us to get closer to Daniel, once we get his seed we can leave her with him, they’ll be fine,” Falla reasoned. Luna looked back to her with wonder, with Falla nodding with a sly smile.
“Daniel will think we’re noble monsters if we take care of a child, and with that we can get closer to him,” she said assuredly.
“So… we use her to get closer to Daniel?” Luna asked worriedly. Falla smiled weakly and shook her head.
“I wouldn’t say use ; we are protecting her from danger and helping her find a safe home. We’re helping her, Luna, and she’s going to help us too, even if she doesn’t know it,” she reasoned. Luna nodded then looked back to Emily.
“Well, ok, as long as she’ll be safe,” she said softly.
“Don’t worry, Daniel and his group will watch over her, they’ll find her a new home,” Falla reassured. Luna smiled then looked to Falla.
“Ok, so what should we do first?” she asked.
“We need to be nice to Emily and get on her good side, if she speaks highly of us to Daniel then that will help us get even closer to him faster,” Falla said looking to the human girl with a smirk. The sisters nodded then walked back over to Emily, the girl looking towards the sound of footsteps in the grass.
“Emily, I’m so sorry about what happened to you,” Falla said gently as she knelt down in front of the young girl. Emily showed a saddened expression as Falla wiped a tear away from the girl’s cheek.
“You poor thing, it just broke our hearts to hear what you went through. It’s a miracle you made this far on your own, you’re so lucky,” Falla said softly. Emily nodded and looked down with a whimper. Falla smiled a bit and held a hand on the girl’s shoulder.
“Emily, I know we’re monsters, and that you must hate monsters after what happened to your family. But, please believe us when I say that my sister and I want to help you,” she said genuinely. Emily looked towards the sound of her voice as Falla gently took hold of the girls’ hands with hers.
“We’re not bad monsters, Emily; I pray you can believe me when I say that. My sister saved you from being washed away in the river because she wanted you to live, we both do. I don’t know if you could find it in your heart to trust two monsters like us, but please, let us help you,” Falla pleaded gently.
“You want to help me?” Emily asked softly.
“Of course I do. We giant butterflies adore children; we hope to have daughters of our own someday. We may not be strong on our own, but we know of some travelers who are. If you’ll allow us, we’ll help you find them, they’re not too far from here. They can help us find you a new home, one where you’ll be safe again,” Falla said kindly. Emily remained silent as she just stared in Falla’s direction, with Falla glancing away with impatience for a moment before looking back at the child with a gentle smile.
“Please, we promise to watch over you like you were our own daughter,” she assured. Emily looked down for a moment then back toward Falla.
“You mean it?” she asked worriedly.
“Emily, I would never lie to you. You can trust us,” Falla said gently. Emily whimpered then quickly hugged the butterfly girl, with Falla holding her with a calm smile.
“Ok, if you say so,” the young girl said softly.
“There there, we’ll take good care of you, I promise,” Falla said glancing to Luna with a wink. Luna nodded with a warm smile at them, with Falla then standing up and looking down to Emily with a smirk.
“Now then, we need to find Daniel and his friends, they’re going to be our protection from those bad monsters out here,” Falla informed gently.
“The man-eaters,” Emily breathed out with fear.
“Yes, but don’t worry, we’ll be flying up over the land, they won’t be able to get you, you’ll be perfectly safe,”
“Daniel will think we’re noble monsters if we take care of a child, and with that we can get closer to him,” she said assuredly.
“So… we use her to get closer to Daniel?” Luna asked worriedly. Falla smiled weakly and shook her head.
“I wouldn’t say use ; we are protecting her from danger and helping her find a safe home. We’re helping her, Luna, and she’s going to help us too, even if she doesn’t know it,” she reasoned. Luna nodded then looked back to Emily.
