Luna's POV

After the blinding blue light disappears from my vision, I'm greeted with the most beautiful sight I have ever seen. A cavern full of millions of luminous rocks. The cavern is huge. I can't even see the end of it from any direction. The luminous rocks are the only source of light for what appears to be miles. 'How far underground am I?' I wonder to myself.

I start to wonder around. I can't hear anything, so I don't think anything lives here. But there's also no sign of spiders or other critters like that. 'Just where am I?'

Suddenly, footsteps and claws scraping the ground start to echo throughout the cave. They start off quiet, but slowly get louder and louder, as if the things making the noises are getting closer and closer. I look around frantically, trying to pinpoint exactly where the noises are coming from. I just can't seem to find out exactly. It's like the noises are coming from every direction. The sounds suddenly stop. I look around me one last time. I suddenly see two figures in the shadows.

"Who are you?" I question them.

"My name is Estella." One figure says. "And this is Aura, alpha of the wolf pack that lives in these caves."

"Alpha? You mean a wolf?" I question excitedly.

"Yes. I heard you, Luna, like wolves so I decided to bring her with me." Estella explains.

"I do love wolves, but I'm afraid I don't have time to hang around." I tell her. "I have get back to my friends."

"That can wait, my dear." Estella says. "Now follow me. I will show you the way out of the cave."

"May I ask where I am at?" I ask her, following her and Aura as they turn to leave.

"You are in the Glowing Cavern." She says simply.

After a few minutes, a small light shines from up ahead. A few more minutes pass, and we finally make it out of the cave. I gasp at the sight in front of me. The sky is dark as if it was night. There are a few stars, but not many. The many planets in the sky make up for the empty space. The outside of the cave is just a plains with tress scattered about. The plains goes on for a few miles some mountains and water takes up my view. From what I can see, the water is so clear, you can see the bottom of the lake/ocean.

"This is beau- huh? Where'd you go?" I question. Estella and Aura just disappeared. They were standing behind me a few minutes ago. 'Weird'

I look around again and suddenly see a small gathering of trees. There is a faint light shinning through them. I walk towards it. Once I reach it, I place my hand on one of the trees. I expected it to feel like rough bark, but instead, it felt like smooth like the wood you would put in your house as your flooring. I run my hand over the tree before ending the small woods.

At first, the trees are close together, but the further I got, the more spread out they became. Suddenly, I enter a small grove like area. There are many flowers surrounding a floating, glowing object in the middle. I look closer and realize it's like a basket ball sized planet. I walk towards it, feeling a sudden pull from it. I reach my hand out hesitantly. My hand connects with the small planet, and suddenly, a bright light shines. It blinds me momentarily.

When I can see again, I find myself back outside the Glowing Cavern. In front of me stands a middle-aged women with a pixie cut. Her hair is light brown with dark brown highlights. Next to her is a wolf.

I finally realize they must be Estella and Aura.

"Where did you go?" I ask them.

"We were here the whole time." Estella told me.

"What?" I asked confused.

"All of that was an illusion. Except for the magic gem. Also. I like your new clothes. They're much better than those tacky ones you were wearing." Estella says. I give her a confused look before looking down at myself.

I gasp as I look at them. They're so cute!!! I also notice an anklet around my right ankle. It had small purple gems on it and hanging from a part of it is a small planet. The planet looks like a galaxy planet. Hovering over it, a small info box pops up. It's called Galaxy Anklet. Under the name it says, "This anklet is a magical artifact. With this object, you can have a spirit animal."

"Anyways. My name is Estella the Goddess of the Planets. Aura is the alpha of the Stellar Planets pack. The Glowing Cavern is a very sacred place. It is only accessible by those who have planet magic. Planet magic is a type of space magic. Space magic has to different branches of magic. Two of which are star magic and planet magic. Planet magic is one of the most rarest magics to exist." Estella explains.

"But I don't have planet magic." I tell her.

"That magic gem you touched contained planet magic. Only people destined to have planet magic can touch it. You're the first person to have planet magic in at least 10 years." Estella explains. Aura suddenly made a noise, and Estella looked at her.

"Of course. I'll see you later." Estella tells Aura. Aura runs off into the cave.

"Where is Aura going?" I ask Estella.

"She is going back to her pack." Estella says. "Now it's time for you to train."

After a while of training, I've learned the basic moves for a few planets. The moves I've learned are Mercury's Wave, Venus' Poison Cloud, Earth's Crusher, Mars' Blitz, Jupiter's Hurricane, Saturn's Heavenly Light, Uranus' Gravity, Neptune's Glacier, and Pluto's Deathly Night.

"You've finished your training." Estella says.

"Um. How do I leave?" I ask. She looks at me before starting to explain.

"You go back to where you first were when you got here. Once you're there, just think of where or who you want to go to." Estella explains to me.

"Tha-" I'm cut off by a burning pain in my right ankle. I look down to see my anklet glowing a light red. I wince and bend down to take off the anklet, but when I touch it, it feels like burning metal. I quickly pull my hands away.

"What the hell?" I say.

Aura suddenly pops up from the cave carrying a small pup in her jaws.

(This is what the pup looks like but a lot smaller)

"Welcome back, Aura. I see you've brought Nova along with you." Estella says to Aura.

I wince as the burning gets stronger and stronger as Nova and Aura get closer.

"Stop!" I suddenly yell at them. Aura stops walking at my command, and she looks at me with a somewhat confused expression. The burning doesn't stop, but it does lessen a little bit. I look down at the anklet to see it glowing a brighter red than before, but now, there's a tint of purple and blue to it. On the edge of my peripheral vision, I see another glowing light. I look up to see a glowing anklet around Nova's front right ankle. The burning sensation on my ankle suddenly stops. The blue and purple glow is still there, though.

Aura puts Nova down, and Nova walks towards me. Nova looks at me for a second before licking my ankle with the anklet on it. The glowing completely stops, and same happens to Nova's. "Hello" A voice suddenly says.

"H-huh?" I look around, confused on who spoke.

"Down here, silly! I'm the one that spoke." The voice repeats again. I back in front of me to see Nova staring straight at me.

"Nova?" I question. She nods her head in response. "How?"

"Remember how that anklet said it would help you find your spirit animal?" Nova asks me.

"Yeah." I say.

"Well when your spirit animal is close by for the first time, where ever the magical artifact is, it'll burn. Some poor souls have their magical artifact in there body, so it hurts them even more. But anyways, I'm your spirit animal now! Only you and my own kind can hear me talk. To everyone else, I'm just barking and making silly noises." Nova explains to me.

"Cool!!!!!" I exclaim loudly.

"You can also just talk to me mentally instead of speaking aloud" Nova says.

"Cool!" I thought to her.

"I'll usually be near-by you, but you can always call out my name in your thoughts or out loud, and I'll get there as soon as possible. Sometimes I will be with you though." Nova says as she lays down by my right foot.

"Anyways." I start as I stand up completely. "I should get back to my friends. I'll be taking my leave now."

"Of course. And you're allowed to visit whenever you'd like. You can bring people here with you too. You just have to invite them first." Estella says.

"I will. Good bye Estella, Aura." They both nod their heads at me.

I start to walk towards the cavern, and Nova gets up to follow me. After about 15-20 minutes, we arrive at the area I first saw. The center of the Glowing Cavern. I quickly think about Grace while picking up Nova. I'm sure Jolly and Saph are already with each other. That just leaves Grace. Plus, I want to see her anyways.

A bright light surrounds me and takes up my vision.
