The morning had come and boy oh boy did I have a plan to get that staff. But besides this plan, I can’t believe Alexander would hide this from me. I mean if he knows anything about this staff and these powers I possess, then no matter what kind of monster or demon he was, I’m still going to kick his sorry behind.

I was waving goodbye to my parents as they were off to work and them telling me and Alexander to be ready for tonight. The door closed and now was the time to put my plan into action, which was to get him out of the house for a little while, so I could explore his room. I walked around the kitchen taking out ton loads of ingredients to make a delicious Blueberry Pie cake, but only one thing was missing “Blueberries”.

“I need a ton load of blueberries-fresh ones too, in fact maybe even rare if you can.” I stated.

“Okay, I know a place, it’s about a 15-minute walk there though.” putting on his short leather jacket. “What are you making?” he asked. We both walked towards the door as I opened it.

“A Blueberry Pie flavored cake. My parents just love the sweets that I bake, but especially this one. I wanted to surprise them for their upcoming anniversary tomorrow.” I explained. Okay, so the anniversary was a big lie because that already had passed, but that was the only excuse I could come up with at the moment. He nodded and went along his way. I closed the door with an evil grin thinking: Finally, I can get some answers.

Going down the stairs to the basement was easy, but Alexander's door was the hard part. He had definitely improved on the locks since the last time I came down here. He had a combo lock this time and I had no time to be guessing, but just for fun-only this one time because I literally had no time to waste, I decided to put in my birthday digits. “Let’s see 5...14...2” I mumbled. And to my surprise it worked. I walked into his very neat room. This totally let me know he wasn’t human because no guy on Earth has a cleanroom. I rolled my eyes while walking over to his closet on the right.

I opened it, but all I saw was his butler-like clothes and shoes-once again neatly organized. But then a powerful wave hit my head making me feel dizzy, as both hands started to glow. Then beyond the wall of his closet a tiny glow began to appear. I pushed the wooden wall and just like that the wall slid open, and just like that I was looking eye to eye with the Crescent staff. When I saw it last night the black and white ribbons were floating but this time they were still as ice. I reach for the staff pulling it out the closet. Then it began to glow bright, the ribbons floating once more and I could feel my vision going white. I walked over to a nearby mirror to observe that my vision wasn’t going white but my eyes were.

“Finally, we meet at last Crescent Moon.” I heard a faint voice say. I turned around to see a girl who looked exactly like me. The only difference was she was wearing a white gown with crescent earrings and silver chain halo.

“Who are you and why have I’ve been seeing you everywhere I look?” I asked. She stepped closer and placed a hand on my shoulder. Then suddenly my wardrobe began to change, now I was wearing a solid white tank top with wavy arm sleeve, slack like white pants and knee-high black leather boots (over my pants). I turned to look in the mirror to see my bob like hairstyle was the same, but my eyes were still white, and I had on black crescent earrings and a silver chain halo on my head.

“Now you are fully ready to take my place come this Halloween.” she said.

“What place? ...and who are you?” I repeated. She giggled with elegance looking like a true princess.

“I’m sorry, where are my manners? My name is Ella and for my last name well I don’t know because they hardly ever gave last name during the 1400s unless you were royal. Oh, and I am-well was- the Moon Priestess.” she explained.

“The…the moon priestess?” I stuttered.
